Chapter 147 Give it a try again?
After staying in Anlu County for half a month, Qin Yiming was preparing to set off for the capital. The martial arts examination was in October, and it was already July. The journey to the capital was long, so Qin Yiming and the others had to set off early.
Given the dangerous experience last time, Xu Zhen'er once again reminded Qin Yiming not to meddle in other people's business. In Wuchang Mansion, they might still have the ability to rescue him, but when they arrived in the capital, Xu Zhen'er was really out of reach.
"My husband, you must be more careful when you go there. Kang Shiyuan is a person who will avenge you. He has a grudge against us. If you have mastered your status, you will definitely hire someone to chase you. When staying in a restaurant and inn on the road, remember to be careful and don't reveal your identity." Xu Zhen'er was worried that Qin Yiming would stay in an inn, and accidentally crashed into the Kang family's property and revealed her whereabouts.
Qin Yiming disagreed. After all, he was a commander-in-chief. The Ming Dynasty was a serious official. No matter how bold the Kang family was, they could not openly plot against him. Although he had money to make the devil push the mill, the Kang family would at most hire a killer and attack him secretly. Besides, even if the Kang family didn't come to him, he would also cause trouble for the Kang family. I don't know what happened to Kang Shengnan now.
"Madam, don't worry, we will definitely be very careful along the way. And with the protection of Qiuyue and Qiuxiang, you put your heart in your stomach and wait for me to come back!"
Qin Yiming stretched out his hands and put his wife into his arms. Xu Zhen'er was so shy that she dared not look up, but there was infinite love in her beautiful eyes.
"Huh? Where did my cousin go? Why didn't I see her?"
"If you don't let her go, you may be angry and don't know where you went!"
"Okay, don't care about her anymore. Let's leave. Wait for your husband to get the top martial arts scholar back and shine on his family!" Qin Yiming laughed and bragged.
"Brother-in-law, you will definitely be able to go to high school!" Xu Dingwang, who was standing beside him, also said with encouragement. He believed that Qin Yiming could do it.
In this way, Qin Yiming left Anlu County with his twin sisters, Xiaohou, Ah Hua and Song Shenzhang and headed north.
After leaving Wuyang Pass, it was Xinyang, Henan. Qin Yiming and others were in a hurry all the way. When they arrived in Xinyang, it was getting late, so they found a farmer's house to stay for one night. He could have gone to Xinyang Chengnei, but as Xu Zhen'er said, if he had a sheep into the tiger's mouth, it would be bad, it would be better to be careful.
"Brother, it's getting late. Can we stay at your house for a night?" The little monkey took out two taels of silver and handed it over.
The strong man in the yard was pounding mills and stepping on the stone mill. When he saw someone wanting to stay, he stopped his work and looked at Qin Yiming and others.
"Our young master is a student and comes to the capital to take the exam!" Xiaohou said, holding Ah Hua.
"Oh, it's a student, come in, come in, how can you be so embarrassed!" The strong man took the money and took them into the thatched hut.
"The poor family has a small place, so you can only sleep on the floor. My wife, come in with a bundle of hay," shouted the strong man.
"Young Master, we men are fine, what should I do with this Miss Qiuyue Qiuxiang?"
"Young Master Qin, it doesn't matter!"
"Guest, our family has two thatched houses. We want to live in one by ourselves, so you five can only squeeze in."
Soon a pretty woman, holding a bundle of hay, spread it on the ground, and this is their bed at night!
"Thank you sister!" Qiu Yueqiuxiang said politely, and soon spread the hay evenly so that others could sleep.
"You don't have to be polite, the countryside conditions are simple, you can just do it here!" The woman was quite polite and then retreated.
Song Xiance quickly threw himself on the hay, not seeming to dislike the simplicity of the bed at all, and said, "Yeah, it's so comfortable!"
The little monkey took off his clothes, spread them as a bed sheet, and then said, "Young Master, sleep here. This hay sleeps directly, and your body is prone to itching!"
Qiuyue and Qiuxiang slept on this side, isolated from them.
"Woman, I'm getting rich today. This rich master has rewarded two taels of silver. Hurry up, slaughter one of those two old hens. Today I'm going to have a good meal! By the way, go and sell me half a pound of wine. What's the matter with her mother? Why don't you go quickly? Be careful, I'll suck you, a silly girl, you won't be allowed to eat chicken at night!" The strong man outside the house scolded his wife.
Half an hour later, Song Xiance smelled the fragrance of wine and meat, and his stomach started to rumbling.
"You guys say, this family is really unkind. We gave him two taels of silver. He just let us sleep in hay, and he didn't let us eat a few bites. It's really hateful!" Song Xiance seemed to be drooling.
"Mr. Song, if you want to eat, I'll steal half of it from you? Ah Hua is the best at this trick," said the little monkey.
"How come that happens! Isn't that causing trouble? Forget it, I brought the dry food myself!" Song Xiance sat up by himself, took out the dry food and a wine pot, and started eating.
Qin Yiming lay flat and looked at the stars outside the window. The sky was completely dark. Whenever he saw the stars, he would miss his relatives in his future generations, and he didn't know how his parents, grandparents were doing. Whether their life was good or not, they might be sad. They had traveled through time and space and lost a son.
Slowly, I don’t know how long it took, Qin Yiming heard the snoring of Xiaohou and Song Xiance. Their snoring was not loud and could be tolerated, but the snoring of the strong man next door was like thunder, making it even more difficult for Qin Yiming, who had already had insomnia, to fall asleep. Ah Hua was still jumping and playing on the roof of the straw shed.
The moonlight at night shot through the window, and there was still a little light in the room. Qin Yiming couldn't sleep and felt a little numb, so he turned over. There were many villains in the room. Qin Yiming forgot Qiu Yue and Qiuxiang at once. When he turned over, his hand did not retract and he put it on Qiuxiang's chest. Qiuxiang was very alert and opened her eyes wide. He knew it was Qin Yiming, so he closed his eyes tightly and blushed.
"A thief!" Qiuyue noticed someone touching her chest and slapped her on the wall.
Qin Yiming was stunned. He had obviously touched Qiuxiang, so why did Qiuyue react so much? Could it be that the twins had a heart-to-heart relationship? The curious Qin Yiming wanted to touch Qiuxiang again.
"Qiuxiang, what's going on? Why did your sister react so much after touching you?" Qin Yiming asked in a low voice.
Qiuxiang closed her eyes tightly and did not dare to open them. She whispered: "My sister and I are twins. No matter how far we are, my sister will feel the same way no matter where I feel uncomfortable!"
"No matter how far? So magical?"
"Yeah!" Qiuxiang nodded gently.
"It's so magical, I don't believe it, let me try it out?"
"kindness!"
Qin Yiming really touched it again.
"A thief! Huh."
"Wow, it's true!"
At this moment, Qin Yiming heard a melodious sound of flute outside. The tone was suddenly high and low, and it sounded a little sad with the sound of the wind, and there was a strange smell on the moonlit night.
Ahua on the roof seemed to be infected by the sound of flutes and started to scream, as if she was very irritable. Ahua's irritability woke up the little monkey, and the little monkey sat up.
"It's late at night, why are there people playing such a sad flute? What's wrong with Ah Hua? Is there something wrong with Ah Hua?" The little monkey policeman woke up by Ah Hua.
Qin Yiming and Xiaohou were about to go out to see the situation, but at this moment, the sound of the flute stopped, the thunderous snoring next door stopped, and Ah Hua also calmed down.
Everything returned to peace, and Qin Yiming and Xiaohou fell asleep deeply.
The next day, Qin Yiming and the others woke up early in the morning. They saw that the door of the strong man's house was closed and they were afraid of disturbing the rest, so they left.
Who knew that Qin Yiming and the others had not yet gone, the woman who stayed in the house yesterday chased after him with the yamen runners, surrounded Qin Yiming and others, and prepared to take him to the Xinyang County yamen.
"What are you doing? Why are you arresting us?" The little monkey stepped forward to block the yamen runners and became alert. They didn't know what happened. Qiu Yue and Qiuxiang were even more rude. The guys were all showing up.
"It's you, I came to stay overnight last night, and my husband died this morning. Who killed you? "The woman pointed at Qin Yiming and others and said.
When the yamen runners heard this, they were about to catch people. Qin Yiming took out a sign from his waist. The yamen runners wanted to step forward, but they were stunned by the sign Qin Yiming took out and immediately knelt down to pay homage.
"So it's Lord Qin. We're out of mind and disturbing you. Sorry!"
The yamen runner asked the angry woman and said, "No one else has ever been to your house except these adults?"
The woman replied, "It's true!"
"Come on, arrest this splash lady for me. Since no one else has visited your house, your husband must have been killed by you, the splash lady!"
The woman saw the official instructing her to ask this, and she knelt down and cried in grievance.
"My husband, you died so unfairly!"
Qin Yiming looked at the woman crying pitifully, and he was also very surprised by the death of the strong man, so he asked: "We don't know how your husband died, but we did not leave the room yesterday, why did you rely on us?"
"It's not you, why did my husband die suddenly?" the woman cried.
Qin Yiming couldn't answer, but he really wanted to find out.
In the afternoon, the county master brought the yamen runner coroner, Qin Yiming and others to the woman's home. After investigation, the coroner concluded that someone was poisoned to death this week. The county master immediately arrested the woman and scolded him sternly: "You spit woman, it is clearly your man who killed his medicine. You also want to frame Lord Qin. I don't see that I will peel you off!"
"Sir, you are wronged, you are wronged!" The woman immediately cried and cried, but no one paid attention.
