It was dark and I was very tired after rushing for a day, so I found a room with Pei Yuanhao to rest.

When I was lying on the bed, I looked at the moonlight outside the window through the curtain, and felt particularly cold. But when I pinched my hand, I felt that it was cold and covered with cold sweat.

What Pei Yuanhao said just now really shocked me. I had never paid attention to something I had noticed in so many years. Now I suddenly found out and it actually caused a huge wave of dust in front of me.

Liu Shizhou's death is actually very informative.

Now, what makes me most worried is Qinghan. Where is he now?

Did he really catch the old man from the Tie Family Money House, have he figured out what happened before? What would the truth be?

Really, it was my father who ordered the assassination of Liu Shizhou?

If that is true, I dare not imagine our future.

It seemed like a fire was frying in my heart. I tossed and turned on the bed until midnight before I could barely close my eyes.

But in my sleep, I also felt a little turbulent and uneasy.

At first I was still in a dream, but gradually, I felt that the turmoil seemed to be real and became clearer.

I opened my eyes all at once.

A faint candlelight flashed in front of his eyes as if he was frightened.

I immediately frowned. What's going on? I clearly remember that before I went to bed, I blew out the candles in the room. Who came to my room to light the candles?

I suddenly sat up and realized that I was not sleeping in the room or the bed before! I don’t know where the place in front of me was, but it was pitch black around me, and only a candlestick illuminated the small area in front of me.

What is this place?

How could I come here?

I remember that there are often stories in ancient books that when people are sleepy, they enter a strange, tall and gorgeous mansion to sleep. The next morning, I woke up and found that there was a wild tomb around them. Could it be that I also encountered some mountain monsters?

I was so scared that I stood up quickly. At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps. I looked ahead nervously, and with a creak, the door was pushed open, and a man walked in from outside.

"Who?!"

I widened my eyes and reached out to touch it everywhere under me, trying to find something to defend myself, but I had nothing to do. I could only clench my fists. If the person who came was not a good person, I would have planned to fight.

The visitor immediately said, "Miss, please calm down."

My brow frowned: "Who are you?"

The man bowed to me, "I'm Liu Qi."

"Liu Qi?"

I frowned and thought for a while before I remembered that it was the eldest son of the Liu family. His grandfather, the old man Liu, who was still in the Yan family yesterday, discussed the peace talks with Qingchen and me.

Their family seemed to have lost their descendants and had few people. His father died early, leaving him alone, and he was always sick and weak. Jin Gui was so brave that the people in the family wanted to hold him in their hands and hold him in their mouths. The name was Liu Qi, because he was easy to support him because he was a little famous and wanted to deceive the gods and hide the ghosts. He pretended that he had already died of six children before, and at least left this one for the Liu family.

I only saw him when I was a child, and I haven't seen him again for so many years. Seeing that he was as thin as his name, he was like a willow spirit. I don't know how he survived so thin, but playing with me as a trick, I got a little offended.

I immediately frowned: "Young Master Liu, what do you mean?"

He walked in slowly, his pale face reflected by the faint candlelight, and he looked more like a monster. No matter how handsome he looked, he was furious.

He bowed to me politely, "Miss, don't be angry."

"Don't be angry? I'm sleeping well and you're getting here. What are you going to do? Are you going to rebel?!"

"Miss a angrily lady. Even if we want to rebel, we will not dare to rebel Miss Yan."

“…!”

When I heard this, I felt a little reminiscent.

I don't know how they got me here, but Pei Yuanhao is still in that inn.

I immediately said, "You, are you bringing me here to attack the emperor?!"

Liu Qi smiled and said, "Today, in that restaurant, the eldest lady protected her body, which really scared us. She had no eyes on her sword. If she hurt her again, we would be responsible for death. Therefore, we could only transfer the eldest lady to this safe place first. When the matter is finished, my grandfather and I will naturally apologize to the eldest lady and fight and kill her. There is no other way."

My eyebrows were twisted into a lump.

Because at this time, I also saw clearly that the room I was in seemed to be a secret room, and there was a secret door above my head, which was tightly matched. If I was right, the secret door should lead to the bed in the room where I lived, and they should have made some medicines for slow reaction in the room. Only in this way can I get me here without knowing it.

With such a secret passage, it seems that this inn is not a serious inn anymore.

I sneered and said, "I only heard about the merchants of the Liu family for generations, but I didn't expect that you were doing business of opening black stores."

Liu Qi hurriedly said, "Miss is so serious."

"Isn't it? Why are you not killing yourself for money when you are doing this secret passage in the inn?"

"Miss, don't get me wrong. The inn run by the Liu family does have such secret passages, but it is just for emergencies. It will not be used by ordinary guests."

Not enabled for ordinary guests.

When I meet Pei Yuanhao and I, I will not be lenient.

I also feel a little regretful now. Before entering this inn, I reminded Pei Yuanhao to be careful in Xichuan. After entering a cave, don’t just think about being careful of jackals, tigers and leopards. Maybe that cave is the bloody mouth of wild beasts. How long after I finished speaking, I actually came to their words.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Isn’t this forcing me to slap myself in the face?

Thinking of this, my face turned tilted, and I raised my head and glared at Liu Qi fiercely.

"Miss, forgive me for my sins."

Even at this time, he still smiled and sued me repeatedly. I said, "Liu Qi, do you know what you are doing? Do you know what the Yan family and the court have to do to Xichuan?"

Liu Qi raised his head and said, "We don't know. I don't think I know about the eldest lady."

“…”

"The head of the family insists on his own. We must not watch Xichuan's decline like this, let alone watch the Yan family, whose century-old foundation is destroyed in his hands."

My throat was choked for a moment. Liu Qi had turned around and retreated. I hurriedly chased after him, but the door was closed immediately.

I patted the door hard: "Let me out! Liu Qi, let me out! Do you dare to lock me up?!"

There were two people at the door, so they immediately locked the door. Liu Qi stood outside the door and said, "Miss, don't struggle hard. No matter how big the noise is, the people above can't hear it. Miss, don't hurt yourself, otherwise, then, my grandfather and I will probably have to add a few more knifes."

After hearing what he said, I knew that he and his grandfather had made up their minds to intercept Pei Yuanhao here rather than kill him.

I lay on the door and said anxiously: "Liu Qi!"

He seemed to turn around and stop again, and I said, "You will really put Xichuan on the dead end!"

"Miss, we did this just to prevent the Yan family from going to a dead end."

“…”

"Miss, please forgive me!"

Looking at the shadow outside the door, he solemnly saluted me, then turned around and left.

I punched the door hard.

After a muffled clang, everything returned to peace.

Although I couldn't see outside, I guess it was still late at night, and everything was quiet around me, without any sound. I tried to talk to people outside, and the two burly men stood on both sides of the door, not responding to me, no matter how threatened I was, I just didn't speak.

Obviously, they also accepted the order to prevent me from leaving here.

The door was locked tightly, and I looked around again. There was no window on the walls on all sides; there was also the secret door, which was far from the ground. I reached out and couldn't reach it at all. Even if it was reached, it would be impossible to open without anyone controlling it.

Even if I become an ant, I can't climb out.

What should I do outside?

This inn is the property of the Liu family, which really corresponds to what I said. We did not enter a cave full of jackals, tigers and leopards, but a bloody mouth of a wild beast. Unfortunately, I brought so many people, all of them were spread outside, so it was impossible to come in. Can Pei Yuanhao, the shadow guard beside him protect him?

If something happened to him here-

I can't imagine it!

Just as I was full of anxiety, walking back and forth in the room like an ant on a hot pan, suddenly, a clatter came from outside.

It seems that something hit the wall.

I immediately turned to look, and saw the figures of two big men outside the door shaking for a while. They whispered something, and one of them left and walked to the side.

Is something wrong outside?

I hurried over, held my breath and listened to the movement outside. Suddenly, I heard a muffled sound, and someone fell heavily to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the big man at the door immediately said angrily: "Who is it?!"

Someone is here!

I became more and more nervous, and I was about to enter the door. I listened attentively to the sound from outside the crack of the door. I heard someone rushing over, and two figures were fighting outside. After a while, the big man was also knocked to the ground.

Then I saw a tall figure standing outside the door, gasping for a moment, and then slowly walked towards the door.

I hurriedly took two steps back.
