Her eyes relaxed a little, and she thought to herself, maybe she thought too much about the fragrance, but it didn't actually have such a terrifying effect?
While she was thinking this, she didn't notice that Qi Yan, who had fallen into a deep sleep, was still frowning and sweating on his forehead.
The night was still very long. She checked Qi Yan's pulse several times and decided to stay here tonight.
Lu He was waiting for summons at any time near the door next door. She went over to ask people to go back to the house to rest, so she casually stayed on the soft bench outside Qi Yan's room all night.
Facts have proved that she was right to stay.
Qi Yan's forehead became hot again in the middle of the night. It was so hot that she was startled the first time she touched it.
Cooling down was like a battle. She continued to struggle until the sky turned white, then she breathed a sigh of relief and her cheeks felt slightly hot.
Probably she and Qi Yan have known each other for many years, but they haven't had as much contact with each other as they did tonight.
He still seemed to be able to feel his scorching body temperature. Ling Yutong shook his head, and after making sure that he was fine, he quickly opened the door and left.
In the room, Qi Yan's fingers twitched slightly, as if he could sense the sweet scent missing from the room.
…
The sting operation was quickly launched.
With the coordination of Wu Liuguang, Wu Xuan and his wife were particularly cooperative. Among them, it was Mrs. Zhao who had been in contact with each other and sent messages. Even though she was very afraid, she would not worry about her son's future, her own prosperity and wealth for the rest of her life, and the possibility that the other party would betray her.
Even if the revenge she committed was put on the same scale, she still had to catch the duck.
Even if you don't go up, you have to go up.
She and Wu Xuan freshened up and were released by Dali Temple. According to past habits, Mrs. Zhao secretly went to press the note, and then waited.
"I have already handed over the message. This is the other party's last request. If he takes the note, he should give me money. By then..."
Mrs. Zhao's eyes flickered. Although she wanted to lure someone out, she had reached the stage of giving money...
Wu Liuguang's eyes darkened and he looked at his mother seriously.
"No matter whether the other party gives it or not, we can't get a cent of this money. Did mother forget what she promised at Dali Temple?"
His tone was slightly harsh.
Being used to a gentle son, Mrs. Zhao was still a little dazed.
She pursed her lips, oh, she was just... lucky. Seeing that her son's expression was not good, she hurriedly said a few words softly.
Wu Liuguang looked at his mother and nodded after she repeatedly promised that she would never have any wrong thoughts.
Ling Yutong entered the palace with a face full of lack of rest, and was teased by Haosheng when she met Imperial Physician Fang.
There was nothing going on with the Queen, and seeing that she wasn't resting well, I didn't stay any longer.
When she left the palace, she went straight to the house and happened to catch up with Ni Cangzhu and the others to close the net.
The huge sum of money promised to Mrs. Zhao by the other party turned out not to be a pretense.
When a young man carrying a big sack was surprised for only a moment and was caught with a playful smile on his face, Mrs. Zhao stared at the sack and opened it, her eyes widened when she saw it was full of money.
"Hey, it's a pity. I really didn't expect that you would betray me."
Even now, the young man still dares to make fun of her.
Ni Cangzhu frowned and took the person away.
Sitting opposite him were Ling Yutong and Qi Yan, spreading their hands and saying: "This is what happened. According to himself, that man was nicknamed the Money Bag. He loved to use huge sums of money to deceive people into doing things, but the huge sum of money he got back was actually able to be given away. It's just that
…”
"Anyone who helps him and takes huge sums of money will die mysteriously soon."
"You have a life to take money, but you have no life to spend it."
Mrs. Zhao trembled, and the remaining pity in her eyes completely disappeared, and her face turned pale with fear.
Ling Yutong pursed her lips and did not pay attention to Mrs. Zhao. She looked at Ni Cangzhu: "Drunk Maniac, Money Bag? Are they both members of the Dark Night Branch? Their nicknames are so similar."
"Miss Ling is smart."
Qi Yan raised his eyes with deep eyes.
"You can't get anything out of people like this."
"Walking around to accept tasks, if the people who perform them are organized, the organization will not let them know too much information about the employer, and these people accept tasks, just like ordinary people opening a shop and working, but the way of making a living is different, their temperament... then
Each has its own weirdness.”
Everyone was silent.
Ling Yutong frowned: "I must know who sent the mission."
"Didn't you say that they are a branch of Dark Night? Since we are incompatible with Dark Night, I will go find the people from Dark Night, maybe..."
"People in the dark night don't care."
Shi Mu raised his head and spoke firmly.
"Why?" Ling Yutong was confused. Aren't fire and water incompatible?
Qi Yan paused and raised his eyes: "The so-called incompatibility is just your subjective opinion that since the branch emerged, they have not had a clear conflict with the headquarters, right?"
Ling Yutong was startled.
Shi Mu sighed and asked someone to take Mrs. Zhao and the others down.
"yes."
"As you can see, Dali Temple can follow the whereabouts of the Dark Night Men, and naturally there are information channels to know their relationship with the branch. However, all of this is our subjective understanding based on what we see. In fact, there is no way to verify it."
"It would have been fine before, but now if the news is rashly exposed in the dark night, if they are not incompatible, we will be in a passive position."
Ling Yutong lowered his eyes: "Wouldn't it be wrong to say that this man nicknamed Qianbao can't be caught for long before he has to be put back?"
Not willing to give in.
A drunkard with a money bag, his name is elegant and vulgar, but seeing the truth right in front of him, but hiding it from others, it was really uncomfortable.
Qi Yan's eyes flashed.
"not necessarily."
"Jianghu organizations have their own rules, and we also have our own ingenuity."
"Everyone has fallen into our hands. How can we let them go without peeling off a layer of skin?"
After he finished speaking, he put down the tea cup in his hand and spoke in an understatement, but it sent a chill down your spine and made your soul tremble.
Shi Mu and Ni Cangzhu both looked at him.
Why, it's so cold.
…
The science exam is about to begin.
Because of Wu Liuguang's cooperation, Wu Xuan and his wife did not suffer any serious crime, but when they returned to the house, Mrs. Qi would not let them go.
"absurd!"
"From now on, you two are staying in the house and are not allowed to go anywhere. Don't be fooled and have big dreams of getting rich!"
"Coincidentally, I have been in poor health recently. Since you respect me as aunt, you can go to the ancestral hall to reflect on my past."
"There is no need for Zhao to get involved in Xingyue Pavilion. Yun'er and Yutong are there, which is enough."
Wu Xuan and Mrs. Zhao looked aggrieved, but they did not dare to say a word, so they had to go to the ancestral hall and kneel down.
The reason why they can be so honest is because their son explained it in advance.
The scientific examination is about to take place, and they have just made a mistake that almost affected their son's career. They can live in peace now because they are thinking about future prosperity and wealth!
Except for Qi Yan, who already had an official position in the court, Qi Ze studied hard in the cold window, and it was time to test the true seal.
