Xia Jingyan fell asleep completely. Although Qin Suan's medicine was strong, its effect was not long-lasting. After a while, Xia Jingyan became quiet.
Zhou Ranzhuo took Xia Jingyan and fled to an uninhabited small thatched house in the suburbs. It was almost night, and Zhou Ranzhuo started busy lighting a fire for warmth and lighting.
Not long after waiting, Xia Jingyan gradually came to his senses and pushed himself to sit up.
"woke up?"
"Yeah." Xia Jingyan still felt a little dizzy, so Zhou Ranzhuo handed him a bowl of water.
"It's almost night, you just need to rest a little longer, and come with me to rescue Gu Yun when it's evening." Zhou Ranzhuo said while turning away, he didn't even dare to look at Xia Jingyan.
"What's wrong, Mr. Gu?" Xia Jingyan was confused.
"He was kidnapped. I found the location and will go find him later. By the way, we were assassinated once on the way, when you were sleeping. I didn't have time to call Miss Lu, so I took you away first, but
I heard that Xia Jiajun came later and Lu Chaoya is safe." Zhou Ranzhuo said nonsense seriously, his face not red and his heart not beating.
"That's good." Xia Jingyan let go of his worries and took a sip of water.
Qin Suan and his party hid in an inn in a small county town. The plan was about to be completed, but Zhou Ranzhuo didn't even react, but Gu Yun ruined it!
Qin Suan's face was covered with black lines. He sat in the middle of the inn's hall, picked up a cup of hot tea and poured it on Gu Yun. Gu Yun didn't say a word. It would be in vain to speak anyway.
He was tied up by a group of people and pushed to his knees on the ground. He accepted his fate and let him die. If he could help Zhou Ranzhuo once, his death would be noticed.
But Gu Yun was Zhou Ranzhuo's confidant who grew up together. How could Zhou Ranzhuo be willing to let him die? He still underestimated Zhou Ranzhuo's feelings for him.
It was raining heavily outside the inn. The cold raindrops hit Zhou Ranzhuo who was waiting for an opportunity outside the door. The cold wind blew in waves.
Xia Jingyan found a raincap and put it on Zhou Ranzhao, then he threw an eagle hook into the tree, used the power of the eagle hook to climb up the tree, and jumped onto the roof of the inn beside the tree.
To treat others with their own methods, Qin would have people break down the door and roof to assassinate him, and they would do the same.
"Come here, strangle him!" Qin Suan slapped the table and roared.
Gu Yun closed his eyes and waited for death.
At the same time, Zhou Ranzhuo and Xia Jingyan looked at each other to signal each other. Zhou Ranzhuo slowly drew his sword from behind, broke the necks of the two guards at the door before they could counterattack, and broke in through the door.
"Your Majesty..." Qin Suan stood up in shock. Before he could call out the word "Your Majesty," Xia Jingyan also stepped through the roof and jumped down. He pulled out the fishing line from his waist and tightly strangled Qin Suan's neck from behind.
.
"Who did you just say you were going to strangle to death?" Xia Jingyan's voice sounded.
Qin Suan swallowed the word "Your Majesty" forcefully.
No matter how much he hated Zhou Ranzhuo and wanted to kill him, he couldn't expose Zhou Ranzhuo's identity in front of a group of former officials of the Zhou Dynasty. If he did, he would be dead, and the charge of treason would be confirmed.
"Let him go, and I will avoid this massacre." Zhou Ranzhuo still had some scruples in his heart.
Do not brutally kill your ministers, otherwise the little power you have finally built up will eventually collapse. Qin Suan's power is too great. He is a first-rate prime minister and cannot be removed by force.
"Let... let him go... quickly!" Qin Shuan's eyes widened, fearing that Xia Jingyan would strangle his neck if he was not careful.
Although Qin Suan is pulling, he is still afraid of death.
Several ministers on the periphery were holding swords and facing Zhou Ranzhuo. Like Qin Shuan, they did not dare to expose Zhou Ranzhuo's identity. If Xia Jingyan was not here, the scene now would be that they all knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Although they were holding swords and confronting each other, they were still present.
Except for Qin Suan and Gu Yun, all the courtiers of the Zhou Dynasty were thinking about:
"Damn it! You shouldn't follow Qin and risk your life!"
Several people inside quickly untied the rope from Gu Yun's body and managed to send Gu Yun out.
The man was also found. According to the plan, Xia Jingyan let go of the fishing line. In order to prevent Qin Shuan from counterattacking, Xia Jingyan kicked him from behind. Unprepared, Qin Shuan instantly fell forward, staggered a few steps, and then his face
Fall to the ground.
Zhou Ranzhuo took the opportunity to cut Qin Suan's left arm as a warning, and ran out half-carrying Gu Yun. Xia Jingyan also jumped onto the roof and escaped on the table, leaving only a group of people confused and confused in the inn.
After waiting for a while, he quickly called the doctor to see Qin Suan.
"Your Majesty...cousin, why are you here..." Gu Yun almost wanted to cry.
"Save you! It's getting worse every day!" Zhou Ranzhuo didn't look at Gu Yun, but just carried Gu Yun and walked quickly in the heavy rain.
"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..." Gu Yun couldn't hold it back after all, and cried with snot and tears into Zhou Ranzhuo's arms, which made Zhou Ranzhuo feel disgusted.
"Don't rub against me! Hey! You don't have to be so moved... ugh..." Zhou Ranzhuo finally accepted his fate and just rubbed against me. Anyway, he was soaked in the rain, so he had to wash his clothes whether or not he rubbed against him.
"Stop laughing, hurry up and find an inn, I need to dry my clothes!" Zhou Ranzhuo knocked Xia Jingyan on the head.
"We can't go, so we can find a cave to rest." Xia Jingyan responded.
"Now that we've entered the city, where are the caves? Why can't we go to the inn?" Zhou Ranzhuo asked.
"No money." Xia Jingyan shrugged.
Zhou Ranzhuo remembered clearly that when Xia Jingyan left the house, Xia Jingsheng stuffed him with a large bag of silver.
"You spent it all!" Zhou Ranzhuo exclaimed, the bag of silver was enough to buy half a street, and then he began to doubt whether his financial ability could afford to support Xia Jingyan.
"How can I have free time?" Xia Jingyan patted Zhou Ranzhuo on the back. He was not a prodigal.
Zhou Ranzhuo thought about it for a while. He was either suppressing bandits these days, or on the way to suppress bandits. He really didn't have time. "Then where did your money go?"
"They were robbed by those bandits." Xia Jingyan waved his hand.
"Then what should we do? We can't get wet in the rain all night!" Zhou Ranzhuo lamented, his poor little money bag was just empty, and Gu Yun didn't even have a penny.
"If you hadn't told me earlier, you would have gone to grab some from those bandits.
"You didn't even ask." Xia Jingyan said helplessly, "I don't have anything valuable on me, otherwise I could go to a pawn shop."
"Otherwise..." Zhou Ranzhuo whispered.
"Huh?" Xia Jingyan looked back at him.
"Sell him!" Zhou Ranzhuo pointed at Gu Yun and said with a smile.
"Well!" Gu Yun took a breath of air, "Cousin! You just rescued me!"
"Yes, I just saved you, it's time for you to repay your kindness."
Zhou Ranzhuo patted Gu Yun's shoulder "with bad intentions".
The air seemed to be quiet for a while, and then...
"Help..." Gu Yun ran away, while Zhou Ranzhuo and Xia Jingyan chased him desperately, feeling like they were robbing a common man.
In the end, Gu Yun was caught, and selling him was just a matter of talk.
It was Xia Jingyan who made up a good play and showed it to the innkeeper according to the common tricks in the playbook.
