Shangguan Tianxiao didn't even look back. He was always being assassinated these days, so the defense around him was naturally tighter.
Qu Xiaohan folded his fan and blocked the dagger.
Two guards also participated. After more than ten moves, the three of them did not get any advantage from the mute woman.
Shangguan Tianxiao's eyes suddenly turned cold. He didn't expect Xiao Yunqing to have such a master beside him.
This further shows that there is something wrong with this room. What is she guarding?
Shangguan Tianxiao was also experienced in many battles. He quickly found the trap, but he didn't know how to open it. However, he knew where the secret door was by knocking on it with the hilt of his sword.
A secret guard was called in, and he slapped the wall open, revealing a secret door.
When the mute woman saw that the secret door was exposed, she looked shocked.
The moment she was distracted, Qu Xiaohan tapped her acupoints with a fan.
Immediately, guards came up, picked out his hand tendons and hamstrings, removed his chin, and dragged him out.
Shangguan Tianxiao took Qu Xiaohan and the guards and secret guards down the steps and down the tunnel.
After walking up a long flight of stairs, we arrived at the corridor, where dim oil lamps were lit on the walls.
The sound of the wall collapsing did not reach deep underground, and there was no sound of turning on the switch or hinge, so it did not disturb the wild mandarin ducks below.
There are six stone rooms on the left and right sides of the corridor, and a woman's cry came from one of the stone rooms.
Shangguan Tianxiao immediately recognized that it was Xiao Yunqing's voice.
"Okay! Stop crying!" Liu Shanghe shouted impatiently.
Xiao Yunqing cried: "You should think of a way! There will be days when your belly will become pregnant, and the only way out is death!"
Liu Shanghe sighed and said: "I am blind now, so I can only hide here. Those brothers have been cleared out of the house, what else can I think of?"
"Then what should we do? The old man's people are keeping a close eye on us, and neither the mute woman nor I can get in touch with the outside world!"
"Calm down, Xian'er will definitely find a way to come see you. Let her find a way when the time comes. She can't ignore her biological parents, right?"
"That's all we have to do for now." Xiao Yunqing calmed down a little and stopped crying.
"Don't worry! You must give me a son this time!"
"Damn it! If I were my daughter, wouldn't you admit it?"
"Don't we have a Xian'er? I thought Shangguan Zhao was my son, but he looks so much like that old man! This time he must be my son, hehe..."
"Oh, damn, don't touch me. She's pregnant and can't do anything."
"It's okay, I'll be careful. It's suffocating me."
"ah……"
Immediately afterwards, a sound of um um ah ah came from inside.
Shangguan Tian screamed, smoke erupted from his seven orifices, and he drew out his long sword, "Open the stone door!"
At this time, Qu Xiaohan also found the mechanism and pressed it.
"Boom!" The stone door opened.
Two figures intertwined inside came into view.
The two of them looked at the door in fear, as if they had been stabbed.
Xiao Yunqing screamed and hurriedly adjusted her clothes.
"Who? Who?!" Liu Shanghe couldn't see and asked, shaking his head in panic.
Shangguan Tianxiao sneered and said: "Ms. Xiao, you are really capable of building such a good place in the Zhenguo General's Mansion."
"Why don't you dig a tunnel to the outside? You won't be able to get here today." Qu Xiaohan covered his mouth and nose with a fan in disgust. The smell was too offensive.
Xiao Yunluo's eyes flashed with enlightenment, then regret, and then she burst into tears, "Master! I have been wronged!"
He knelt and crawled in front of Shangguan Tianxiao and tried to pull his robe, but Shangguan Tianxiao kicked him to the ground.
She knelt down and kowtowed: "Master, for the sake of my sister, and for the sake of me raising Ruoli as my biological daughter, please spare me! Woo hoo hoo..."
It was okay not to mention Xiao Yunluo, but when he mentioned Xiao Yunluo, Shangguan Tianxiao's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he snorted coldly: "You still have the nerve to mention Luo'er? I already know what you did, so stop pretending!"
Xiao Yunqing's crying stopped suddenly, and she looked at Shangguan Tianxiao in horror, as if she was trying to distinguish the truth from the lie on his solemn face.
Shangguan Tianxiao was too lazy to talk to her. He turned around and ordered the people behind him: "Kill Liu Shanghe and put this woman in a secret cell for interrogation."
"Master! Don't..." Xiao Yunqing screamed, and when she saw Liu Shanghe's head falling to the ground, her eyes widened in fear.
Two guards picked her up and dragged her out of the door.
Suddenly, her shrill and terrifying voice sounded in the corridor, "Shangguan Tianxiao, you cuckold! I poisoned that bitch Xiao Yunluo to death, and Shangguan Ruoli's blindness was also caused by fetal poisoning..."
Shangguan Tianxiao didn't need to speak, Qu Xiaohan gave an order in a cold voice: "Take good care of her! Don't let Nan Yun's hidden plot be drawn out, and don't let her die happily!"
"Yes!" The guard knocked Xiao Yunluo unconscious and dragged her out.
Shangguan Tianxiao led his men to search the entire darkroom. There were boxes of gold and silver in one darkroom, including some of Xiao Yunluo's large and precious dowry.
In another dark room, there were more than a dozen corpses, some of which had turned into white bones, and some of which were half rotten. They looked like they were servants of the mansion.
There were some medicine bottles and account books in another dark room, which looked like they had been newly put in. Apparently Wutong Courtyard had been stolen all the time recently, which made her worried.
Qu Xiaohan inspected those things and said, "These medicines are the unique poisons of Nanyun Tang Sect."
I looked through the account books again, including the account books of Xiao Yunluo's dowry shop and land property over the years, as well as the account books and land deeds of her own private property.
Qu Xiaohan found a book that was smaller than the account book. He took it out and looked at it, with a stern look on his face, "Father, this seems to be the account book that the Xiao family used to support Nanyun in the capital over the years. It only has time and names."
Shangguan Tianxiao looked solemn, took the booklet, flipped through it, and put it in his sleeve.
The remaining three darkrooms are all empty. One is where Liu Shanghe lived. One has a hole in it, and the other has a broken black iron chain on the wall.
"The people locked here seem to have been rescued, and it happened recently." Qu Xiaohan inspected the new break marks on the black iron chain.
Shangguan Tianxiao frowned and locked it with thousand-year black iron. The person imprisoned here must be very important. Who could it be?
Qu Xiaohan led people to check it out and asked, "Father, if an outsider has come in, what should we do here?"
Shangguan Tianxiao thought for a moment and said, "Let's seal it first. Move all the things out, count Luo'er's dowry and add it to Li'er's dowry."
If no one comes in, it can still be connected to the original secret passage.
…
When Sassoon sent Doctor Xia back, he brought the news that Xiao Yunqing was imprisoned in a secret prison.
Shangguan Ruoli knew that Shangguan Tianxiao had taken action, so she drank the medicinal soup in one breath and frowned in pain.
Dr. Xia was still frightened just now and said that it was lucky that she was in good health and had the right detoxification method, otherwise she would have been dead this time. This chapter has been completed!
