Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

The third concubine heard what the fourth concubine said. Although she could not leave the gate of the Confucius Mansion, she learned from the guards that everyone in the city must stay at home and wait for inspection. Anyone who disobeyed the order and came out would not be arrested as Gao Hu said, but would be shot on the spot.

Indeed, gunshots were heard from time to time in the city throughout the day.

"Is Kong Li really so inhumane?"

"Alas, you've only been in the mansion for a few days, so you don't know that all the men in the Kong family are like this." said the third concubine.

Su Bai became even more worried about Zi Yan.

If something happened to Zi Yan, it would not be an exaggeration to say that one of her arms was chopped off.

"Let's go to the front yard and ask Gao Hu." It has been a while since Gao Hu promised to help Su Bai find out Zi Yan's whereabouts. Su Bai is going to ask again. If there is still no news, he will stay in the front yard tonight.

Just as the two were about to go out, they heard a "creak" and the second wife pushed open the door to the third courtyard and entered the backyard, then hurried to the main house.

"I can't see her, I have to hide!" The third concubine said as she went into Zi Yan's room. It was too late for Su Bai to stop her.

Oh no, Xu Tianyi is lying inside.

Su Bai doesn’t have the ability to clone himself, so he can only deal with the second wife first.

"Second Madam, you must have worked hard checking the accounts today. Why are you still not sleeping so late?"

"Has Yunyun come to see you?" The second wife pushed away Su Bai who was blocking the door and went straight into the main room.

"Yunyun came this morning. You asked her to come. I haven't seen her since then. How come she's not in your room?"

The second wife entered the room without answering and looked around.

If she broke into Zi Yan's house again, the consequences would be even more serious.

"Will the Second Madam think that I hid the Second Young Miss?" Su Bai took the initiative and said, "Then why don't you search my rooms?"

Su Bai said this, but he was thinking in his heart whether he should kill her directly with that pocket pistol if she broke into Zi Yan's house.

Ever since the last time she caught the third concubine and Guo Deyi committing adultery, she has never left this pistol with her except when she sleeps, and has always kept it in her handbag.

The tense nerves relaxed with the second wife's words.

She believed Su Bai that the second young lady was not in the room.

The Second Madam was no longer as rude as when she first entered the room, and her tone became softer. She told Su Bai that no one in the mansion had seen the Second Miss since she left the east backyard in the morning, and she had asked everyone.

"Well, I won't hide it from you. After the second young lady left my room, she went straight out the back door and left the Confucius Mansion. She said she wanted to go out to play on the street, but she was afraid you would know."

Regarding the kidnapping of the second young lady, Su Bai has not yet figured out how to give the second wife a hint. He will first let her know that it was she who released Kong Yun, and then see what the situation will be.

"Su Bai!" The second wife was immediately angry: "You did this on purpose, right?"

Su Bai didn't give her a good face: "Don't you know your own daughter? She stole the key to the back door from me. Can I beat her up?"

"You knew there was danger outside, but you still let her out on purpose. What was your intention?"

"Your words are even more smelly than your farts. When the Second Miss left the Kong Mansion, Kong Li hadn't even arrived in Longxing City yet!"

"You dare to scold me?"

Su Bai suddenly remembered that the third concubine was still in Zi Yan's room. If the second wife revealed her plan at this time, even the third concubine would be silenced.

Su Bai really doesn't want to kill anymore. He's biting people left and right. How many people does he have to kill before he's finished?

"You were the one who found me and brought me to the Confucius Mansion. I thank you and will always remember it. Now I have given the Confucius Mansion to you. There is nothing left to say between us. No matter in the past or in the future, don't mention it at all."

As Su Bai spoke, she wanted to push the Second Wife out of the house. She knew that her words might not have any effect on the Second Wife. If they chatted for a few more words, she would definitely say something she shouldn't say and let the Third Wife inside hear it.

But the second wife was not stupid at all, and immediately asked Su Bai: "Is there anyone in your room?"

Zi Yan always said that Guo Deyi was always up to no good when he came, but now, Guo Deyi really helped Su Bai out of trouble. Just when Su Bai didn't know how to answer the second wife, Guo Deyi was already knocking on the door: "Is the young lady asleep?"

The second wife immediately retracted her suspicious look, she thought Su Bai heard Guo Deyi's footsteps.

"Come in, Butler Guo!"

"Young Madam, Second Madam, Captain Gao said..."

Su Bai stood up and interrupted Guo Deyi before he could finish speaking: "Okay, I'll go see Captain Gao."

The purpose of doing this is to take the second wife away from his yard.

As for the third concubine who had already discovered Xu Tianyi while hiding in Zi Yan's room, we can only wait until she comes back to talk about it.

Su Bai was still confident about the Third Concubine. He had the evidence against her and Guo Deyi in his hands. She didn't dare to tell anyone about it before she communicated with him.

"Let's go, Second Aunt, Captain Gao must have some news."

After Su Bai said this, the second wife's butt felt like it was pricked by a needle and she couldn't sit still for a second.

Su Bai and the Second Madam followed Guo Deyi to the front yard. Guo Deyi invited Gao Hu out of the house. Su Bai asked first, "Captain Gao, is there any news about the Second Miss and Zi Yan?"

Gao Hu was stunned. Wasn't he here to inquire about Zi Yan? Why did the Second Miss show up again?

However, he reacted quickly and told Su Bai that there was no news.

Currently, all the people captured from the streets were locked up in the back yard of the camp headquarters. He asked the garrison to check, but Zi Yan was not there.

"What about the second young lady?" Su Bai gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words. He was just praising Gao Hu for his cleverness in his heart, but when it came to talking about the actual situation, he forgot about the second young lady.

"Oh, there's no Second Miss either."

"It can't be that..." The second wife spoke with tears in her voice.

Su Bai finished speaking for her. I heard that people on the street were killing anyone they saw today, and the blood was flowing like a river.

The second wife was worried that something had happened to the second young lady.

Gao Hu smiled and told the two not to worry, that it was just a rumor, some people were indeed shot dead on the street, they were all people who did not want to be caught and tried to escape. As far as he knew, they were all men.

"I want to go out and take a look!" The second wife said as she was about to go out, but Gao Hu stretched out his arm to stop her: "I'm sorry, second wife, Gao Hu has military duties to attend to and cannot let you go out."

The second wife turned around and said to Su Bai: "Say something!"

She thought that Su Bai's words to Gao Hu would work, and as long as Su Bai said so, Gao Hu would let her out.

Although Su Bai knew that Gao Hu only listened to him in the Kong Mansion, he didn't know whether it would work in this special situation. It was probably difficult.

"Do you think I'm the head of the Kong family now? Second Aunt is so capable, just solve it yourself. My daughter is yours. I asked Captain Gao to help find out, which is considered as my responsibility as a sister-in-law. If you have already paid the bill, I will only be responsible for finding out about Zi Yan!"

Su Bai was deliberately trying to anger the Second Madam. Even though she was more worried about Zi Yan, it was useless to worry. It would be better to use the Second Madam to relieve her boredom.

"Su Bai, I'll strangle you to death!" The second wife was furious and rushed towards Su Bai, but Gao Hu grabbed her arm and said coldly, "Second Madam, my duty is to protect the young mistress, please don't do anything reckless."

At this time, Kong Dai came out of his room and said, "Second Madam, don't be angry. I know where the Second Miss is."
