Qian Chenghe frowned slightly, "What are you waiting for me to do in the middle of the night? If something happens, wouldn't it be better to tell it tomorrow?"
"If I could wait for you during the day, I wouldn't be laying a floor in front of your study now." Qi Yan rolled his eyes and said straight to the point: "Do you know what news there is in the Yamen?"
Qian Chenghe looked at him, waved his sleeves and said coldly: "What does Jiangnan's Yamen have to do with you?"
Qi Yan was stunned, and his voice was a little sharp: "Jiangnan?!"
"How many days have you been here and you don't know that this is Jiangnan?" Qian Chenghe obviously didn't believe it: "That's all, your little thoughts are nothing to be wary of here. It's late tonight, if you want to sleep here , just do it yourself.”
After saying that, Qian Chenghe left without looking back.
Qi Yan stared at his back for a long time before taking steps towards his own wing.
Now the land he is stepping on is actually Jiangnan... What about Chang'an? Can Qian Chenghe's words be trusted? And Yu Xi, where is he now and what has he done to keep himself here
Many unanswered doubts were wandering in his mind, confusing Qi Yan and making his nerves more sensitive. At the slightest disturbance, he would think of all kinds of irrelevant things, and then he would feel anxious and anxious in his heart.
This is not a good sign, at least for Qi Yan now, it will definitely exhaust his body's functions.
A few days later, Qi Yan finally had a showdown with Qian Chenghe and told him that he had decided to go back to Chang'an. He hoped that he could lend him a fast horse and some money and would return it to him in the future.
Qi Yan felt that Qian Chenghe had no reason to refuse. Because from the beginning, he showed great dissatisfaction with Qi Yan, and was very unhappy with the burden left by his junior brother. Now that Qi Yan made such a proposal, he should send him away...
But Qian Chenghe refused. He refused very decisively, even a little cold and inhumane.
"What kind of place do you think I am? I can come and leave whenever I want." Qian Chenghe sneered: "Since Yu Xi has put you here, not even a fly can get away until he comes to take you in person." Fly out of my mansion."
Qi Yan was stunned. He didn't expect Qian Chenghe to state so bluntly that he was imprisoned here and could not leave.
Sure enough, Qi Yan's life was not so easy after that. Every day, someone came to guard the door of his room with great fanfare. If an outsider accidentally saw this scene, they would think that Qian Chenghe was imprisoning a felon in his house.
Someone comes to deliver three meals a day, bathing water is provided at night, and a change of clothes is provided every day. Most of them are moon-white, which suits Qi Yan's temperament... However, he is still imprisoned.
Since the showdown, Qi Yan has never seen anyone other than the maid, including Qian Chenghe.
Unable to sit still and wait for death, Qi Yan tried to establish a good relationship with the maid, but this hope was almost slim. This maid likes Qian Chenghe, she likes him very much, and her emotions will be affected by Qian Chenghe's words and eyes.
"Do you recognize Yu Xi?" Qi Yan cleverly avoided the information about Qian Chenghe.
The maid shook her head and said innocently: "People from the master's sect, how could we slaves know this?"
"You know that Yu Xi is from the same school as Qian Chenghe, but you don't know each other, right?"
"Yes, and..." The maid pursed her lips, seeming to be a little confused on whether to say: "My lord..."
Qi Yan blinked: "What?"
"... The Lord does not allow us to talk to you more, no matter who it is. If anyone is found disobeying orders, he will be expelled from the mansion." The maid's expression became worried: "I don't want to leave the mansion... "
The psychology of the youngest daughter’s family is very easy to understand. Qi Yan looked at her for a long time and nodded: "Go out and don't talk to me anymore."
The maid's face was filled with joy and she nodded solemnly: "My maid, please leave. If you need anything, sir, just call me."
Qi Yan would not make things difficult for a little maid, not to mention that this maid is also a little fan of Qian Chenghe. It is very likely that she will tell Qian Chenghe about her every move, and Qi Yan, who can serve as an errand in this mansion, will not think that she is just a simple little girl.
It is essential to be on guard against others, and Qi Yan always has this mentality when dealing with the outside world.
There was no news about the Yamen incident, and Yu Xi never showed up. Qi Yan was locked up here and could do nothing.
Sometimes, I really have to lament my own uselessness.
Half a month has passed, and the autumn wind has become biting and cold, as if it were blowing on my face with a slender steel needle, which stung a little.
Winter is coming, and in a blink of an eye, Qi Yan has already spent two months at Qian Chenghe's mansion.
Every year at the end of the year, there are more things happening. It’s like summing up your year. Some big things will happen gradually.
For example, Daliang is going to perish.
It is no surprise that Chang'an was attacked. The outer city of Daliang surrendered one by one. The enemy's troops went all the way south, rushed to the capital of Chang'an, and breached the palace.
Simply, the people who surrendered lived and worked in peace and contentment without getting hurt.
The emperor of the enemy country was very shrewd, but he was a lover of the people. He was the pillar of the country in Daliang. However, the emperor of Daliang was fatuous, listened to the words of traitors, and killed loyal ministers, so he had to stay away from his hometown. He never thought that in a strange place, he would actually build his own country and army, and he never expected that he would actually become the new generation emperor of Daliang.
The palace was captured, and the new emperor walked into the palace surrounded by everyone and sat on the throne.
This is the true peace of the country and the people. From then on, another prosperous era was recorded in the annals of history.
The new year is coming soon, and the new emperor has ascended the throne, which has a good meaning. Qi Yan didn't know what the outside world was like, but on this day, Qian Chenghe made a special trip.
"Yu Xi is coming soon." Qian Chenghe's voice was cold: "In a few days, he will come to Jiangnan and take you away."
This news exploded in Qi Yan's heart like fireworks: "Really?!"
"Get ready in the next few days. He will take you away." Qian Chenghe snorted mockingly: "Only if you pass my level."
The joy in his heart was poured down by a bucket of cold water. Qi Yan looked at Qian Chenghe in confusion for a long time before lightly opening his thin lips.
"Qian Chenghe, you are the one who wants to kill Yu Xi, right?"
As soon as the words came out, even Qi Yan himself was stunned.
So he... actually thought like this? And at this moment, he asked this question.
Qian Chenghe was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing.
"You actually noticed something?" Qian Chenghe's smile was a little crazy: "Even Yu Xi didn't notice something, but you, an idiot, saw it clearly. Is this because bystanders know..."
