After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case
Chapter 79 Crisis 4 lurks
When she came to her senses and thought about what she had just thought, Xu Yingying couldn't help but feel her face getting hot. She subconsciously pushed Li Siqi away, stood up suddenly and ran out.
Li Siqi had no idea what was going on, but Xu Yingying had already left. He subconsciously rubbed his fingers, seeming to feel a little regretful.
But the person had already left, so Li Siqi had to give up.
Li Siqi sat for a while, then simply stood up and left the yard. There was no sign of Xu Yingying in the yard. He didn't know where she had gone to. But as long as she was still in the mansion, Li Siqi was not very worried.
After returning to his study, Li Siqi called the secret guards, "Go and investigate who Yan Qingyin usually interacts with. Remember, don't reveal your identity and don't alert the enemy."
The secret guard received the order and retreated quickly.
Li Siqi was the only one left in the study room. He still didn't know what Yan Qingyin was going to do, and he didn't know Yan Qingyin very well. He had to investigate Yan Qingyin's background so that he could find out the truth of the matter.
Not only Li Siqi was thinking about Yan Qingyin's purpose, Xu Yingying, who had returned to her own yard and was lying casually on the bed, was also thinking about what Yan Qingyin was going to do.
Obviously, there was nothing in common between her and Yan Qingyin, so why did the other party keep picking on her? This was what puzzled Xu Yingying the most.
Yan Qingyin's various strange behaviors left Li Siqi and Xu Yingying confused, but no matter what, they knew one thing: Yan Qingyin had now completely set his sights on the two of them. Especially for Li Siqi, the feud had already been formed. Since there was no way to resolve this matter, he might as well get rid of Yan Qingyin and be done with it once and for all. Li Siqi didn't want to leave any future troubles for himself.
Xu Yingying thought the opposite of Li Siqi. She didn't know about the current conflict between Li Siqi and Yan Qingyin. She still wanted to resolve this matter, but Yan Qingyin was much more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.
While thinking, Xu Yingying felt that her surroundings had become much quieter, and she was not quite used to it. Then she remembered that Yecao was still in Yan Qingyin's house and had not returned yet. Logically, Yecao should know that she had left Yan's house. Given the current situation, Xu Yingying guessed that Yecao should have been captured by Yan Qingyin's men.
Thinking of Yecao, Xu Yingying became anxious again. She stood up suddenly from lying comfortably on the bed just now. Camellia also noticed Xu Yingying's actions. She had known that Yecao had been caught a long time ago. The reason she did not tell Xu Yingying was that she was afraid that Xu Yingying would act rashly and go to find Yan Qingyin herself, which would be what Yan Qingyin wanted.
"Master, don't worry." Although Camellia was also worried about the weeds, she cared more about Xu Yingying's safety, so she quickly stopped Xu Yingying who wanted to go out.
"Camellia, why are you stopping me? Yecao has been caught and I have to go save him. Otherwise, I don't know what Yan Qingyin will do to him." Xu Yingying's eyes were red with anxiety. Although Yecao was a ghost, he had been with her for such a long time and Xu Yingying had feelings for him.
"Master, calm down first. Ye Cao will be fine now. Yan Qingyin's target is you, the master. He is holding Ye Cao hostage because he wants you to come to him yourself. If you really go, the antidote that the Ninth Prince has worked so hard to get for you will be wasted. Yan Qingyin wants your body as a medium, so naturally he won't do anything to Ye Cao. But if you go now, it will be different." Camellia analyzed the current situation to Xu Yingying.
Xu Yingying also gradually calmed down, "You are right, Yan Qingyin's target now is me. As long as I don't show up, Ye Cao will be fine..."
Xu Yingying gave up the idea of going to the Yan Mansion and stayed in the Prince's Mansion wholeheartedly. After a few days, Xu Yingying's body recovered well. Although her martial arts skills did not improve much, she did make some progress.
Li Siqi has not been idle these days, and finally succeeded in placing a spy in Yan Qingyin's mansion.
Originally, Xu Yingying wanted to continue living in the prince's mansion. Li Siqi still gave her enough sense of security. She thought she could live here peacefully for a while, but man proposes, God disposes.
That day, Xu Yingying had just finished breakfast when someone came from the palace.
It was the Imperial Concubine's man. After receiving the news, Xu Yingying hurriedly changed into men's clothes to avoid the embarrassment of her true identity being discovered.
Xu Yingying, dressed in men's clothing, stood in front of the person who came to look for her Imperial Concubine, "I wonder what the Imperial Concubine wants to see me about?"
The person who came was the most capable eunuch in front of the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine sent him here because she thought highly of Xu Yingying. However, Xu Yingying did not want the Imperial Concubine to think highly of her. She probably knew what the Imperial Concubine was going to do.
As she expected, the chief eunuch said, "Xu County Magistrate, the Imperial Concubine has requested that you save the Crown Prince's life. The Imperial Concubine knows your ability, so I hope you won't make things difficult for me. Just go with me. Ling Huan, these are gifts from the Imperial Concubine, so please accept them, Xu County Magistrate."
As he spoke, he signaled the people behind him to bring up two boxes. When they opened them, they saw one box of gold and one box of silver. "Our queen said that these are just deposits. As long as you, the county magistrate, can cure the prince, there will be other rewards."
Xu Yingying couldn't help but curl her lips and complained silently in her heart: This imperial concubine is really generous. If she knew that it was me who poisoned Li Siming, would she still come to me?
Xu Yingying didn't want to enter the palace. She didn't have any good feelings towards the palace. Although she also liked money, it was not as important as her own life.
"Eunuch, I..." Xu Yingying wanted to refuse, but the eunuch seemed to have anticipated it and interrupted her directly.
"County magistrate, His Majesty has already known about the Crown Prince's affairs. The poison in the Crown Prince's body can only be cured by you. Now it is the Imperial Concubine who invites you, and the reward is higher. If it were His Majesty, I don't know how much the county magistrate would get. The royal gift, even a silver ingot cannot be spent."
The eunuch's words were almost a naked threat to Xu Yingying. Xu Yingying was so angry that her teeth were itching. She couldn't imagine that the Royal Concubine would actually tell the emperor about the matter. Xu Yingying had no other choice. Li Siqi was not at home at the moment, so there was no one to help her.
Xu Yingying was in a dilemma, so she agreed with a gloomy face. Xu Yingying asked the servants in the prince's mansion to tell Li Siqi that she had entered the palace, and then she left with the eunuch.
