Shiye took Qiao Yuyan and abandoned the horse first. The two of them went directly around to the northwest rear where Qiao Yuyan came out, and went through the dog hole.
Fortunately, the back here is really remote and no one is walking around at all, so it is still quiet here.
But there was a lot of noise in the main courtyard in the distance, and the red firelight could be seen from such a distance, reflecting in the night sky.
Against the sound of sword fighting, the two people hurried towards the yard.
It was still the gap made by picking up leaves, and Qiao Yuyan ducked in.
There was already a commotion inside.
The two people turned out from the back of the house and saw that almost everyone was no longer in their own houses. Instead, they were standing crowded together in the yard, and the chattering of people almost covered up all the sounds outside.
Passed.
From time to time, people from the outer courtyard came to report the situation outside.
"Two people were fighting in the corner over there. One person had his neck cut and fell on the snow."
"There was fire in the southeast, and it seemed like several people were fighting."
"There were a few more screams over there just now."
"..."
They are all female relatives of the inner house. I have never seen such a scene of real swords and real guns. You are leaning on me and I am leaning on you to comfort each other.
Every time I heard news from outside, there was a commotion with a nervous tone.
Qiao Yuyan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the situation was okay, and those people outside had not come this way yet.
She took the picked leaves and quickly slipped back to her house while no one was paying attention.
Qixi and Pinlan are still there, and Grandma Wang is also watching over them.
Seeing the two of them coming over, it was natural that I felt lucky again after the disaster.
Qiao Yuyan asked them about the situation in the house today.
Pinlan picked up the important point and said, "The commotion started an hour ago. First, I heard people in the outer courtyard say that the people guarding the door had withdrawn. Everyone thought that the ban was lifted, and they all rushed to get out.
Little did they know that the third wife and the third master had barely taken two steps out when they were so frightened that they ran back with pale faces, saying that someone had killed someone outside.
After hearing the news, the people inside didn't dare to run outside. They only dared to let the servants in charge of the outer courtyard inquire about the news. Who knew that the situation outside was getting worse and worse, and it became what it is now."
An hour ago, that was much slower than the Qiao family's reaction.
However, since the Qiao family is close to the Imperial City, the situation has changed, so it is reasonable for the other side to react first.
"Where's the old lady?"
"The fourth wife has been guarding her all the time! The others were frightened and had no thoughts at all. The fourth wife said that she should have been buried long ago anyway, so she is not afraid of this."
Qiao Yuyan felt a little relieved. The fourth wife acted more appropriately. Old Mrs. Wen was still ill. If she was frightened by such a thing, something might really happen.
Pinlan pointed to the next door again, "The incident happened suddenly. We were afraid that the situation would change, so we tied up those people and sealed the doors and windows of the house."
Sure enough, Pinlan is the safest house to work in. At this critical moment, it is natural to use the most appropriate method to deal with such unstable factors.
After understanding the basic situation at this time, Qiao Yuyan walked out with a serious face and winked at Shi Ye. Shi Ye immediately became angry and shouted angrily, "What are you doing here?!"
Her voice immediately stunned everyone in the courtyard.
At this time, they were still able to be restrained by Qiao Yuyan, not so much because they were afraid of her, but because they were afraid of Shi Ye next to her.
People are being killed outside with a sharp knife, and the so-called rules in daily life have become useless.
If the strange maid next to Qiao Yuyan accidentally injures one of them, there won't be any reckoning if she turns around.
Ever since Jiahe came out of that confinement, his whole person has exuded a lazy vibe.
At this moment, there was such a commotion outside, and the whole yard was full of worried people. It seemed that she was the only one standing there quietly watching the excitement.
She even found a tree to lean against, with her arms folded across her chest, making people wonder if she could sleep in such an environment.
After hearing the sound of Shi Ye, she opened her eyes and glanced at Qiao Yuyan, slightly surprised, but then she showed a half-smiling look.
Mrs. Chen was obviously relieved when she saw Qiao Yuyan coming out, "Aunt Six, you're out! You should know the situation outside! Because you are sick, Aunt Four has not allowed anyone to go in to see you, so no one went in.
.”
Can't you care?
Qiao Yuyan did not expose it and said coldly: "Are you making so much noise here at this time because you are afraid that others will not know that there are many people hiding in this place?"
Her words immediately made everyone look horrified.
Mrs. Zhou immediately said in a sharp voice: "Isn't Mrs. Six in charge of all of us now? It's now time, it's time for you to take measures to protect the safety of all of us, right? What should we do about things outside? We have come to this time.
Do we have to sit here and wait for death? Otherwise, you can find a way for us all to escape!"
Her words immediately aroused the agreement of some people, but most of them were not bossy like her, but looked at her expectantly.
Qiao Yuyan's cold eyes flashed across Zhou's face, and then fell on the heads of the others, "There is complete chaos in Beijing, but we don't know what the situation is yet.
If you say you want to go out, let me ask you, where do you want to go? Just outside this courtyard, I ask you to go out, do you dare? When you go out of the gate, there are rioters on the street outside, what do you want?"
Hearing this, Jiahe glanced at Qiao Yuyan suspiciously, and then his expression became serious.
It's just that Qiao Yuyan was talking to others at this time, so she didn't pay attention to this.
When the people below heard what she said, they started talking one after another, but no one dared to refute.
Only Zhou said: "This is something caused by the eldest brother of our family. If it weren't for the Wen family, who would care about us outside? Are the whole family going to be buried here? Don't talk about those six brothers and sisters.
No, no one knows what’s going on outside, just think of a way to send us out!”
"Okay!" Qiao Yuyan responded almost as soon as she finished speaking.
This word "good" confused everyone present.
Mrs. Zhou was also stunned, "What did you say?"
Qiao Yuyan looked at her with a sneer, "The third wife wanted to go out, and I agreed. Why do you ask me instead? If you want to go out, do I have to stop you?"
I am still busy taking care of this room full of people. If you can take the initiative to lighten my burden, I will naturally be happy. Then...who else wants to go with the third wife? Raise your hands now.
