Rebirth is not a dream.
Chapter 84 The Invisible Assassin
After Qin Yi returned to An Ning Marquis' Mansion and sent Lu Anruo safely to the Shangshu Mansion, he learned that Su Yue was injured and had returned to Su Garden, but she did not return to An Ning Marquis' Mansion.
Qin Yi was extremely anxious and rushed to Su Garden. However, when he arrived at Su Garden, he was turned away. The doorman did not open the door for him, but said through the door: "The uncle and the eldest lady have already rested. Come back tomorrow if you have anything to say."
Qin Yi was extremely anxious, and he was eager to see Su Yue and confirm her injuries. He tried to persuade the doorman to let him in, but the doorman was unmoved and insisted on following the master's orders.
Qin Yi had no choice but to wander outside the door, his heart full of worry and uneasiness. He wondered whether to force his way in, but was worried that this would cause unnecessary trouble.
Finally, Qin Yi decided to be patient for the time being and wait until the next day to visit Su Yue. He found a place to sit outside Su Garden and guarded silently. Qin Yi frowned and looked at Jiang Yuan with a puzzled look and asked, "Jiang Yuan, do you think the Third Young Lady is angry?"
Jiang Yuan couldn't help but find it a little funny when he saw Qin Yi like this, but he still suppressed his laughter and replied: "Third Master, Miss Cousin has two brothers to accompany her, so why do you need to send her off?"
Qin Yi was a little anxious when he heard this, and quickly explained: "It's not like that, she is holding me tightly!"
Jiang Yuan heard this, but shook his head, sighed and said: "Even so, you shouldn't let go of the Third Young Madam."
Qin Yi became even more anxious when he heard this, and said loudly: "I didn't let her go, she was separated by someone!"
Jiang Yuan looked at Qin Yi and smiled helplessly, thinking that Qin Yi was really a straightforward person, so he kindly reminded him: "Then do you think the Third Young Lady will believe you?"
Qin Yi: "Really?" Qin Yi was not too sure. Su Yue was different now than before, and she didn't seem to care that much about his feelings.
Jiang Yuan: "Third Young Master, why don't we go back first and come back tomorrow morning? It's too cold now. If you catch a cold again, how will you take care of Third Young Madam?"
Qin Yi thought about it and realized that there was no other way. He could only go back to the Marquis' Mansion and come back here tomorrow morning. The next morning, Qin Yi couldn't wait to get up. After washing up, he didn't even have time to have breakfast and hurried to the direction of Su Garden.
Arriving at the gate of Su Garden, Qin Yi stopped, took a deep breath, and then knocked gently on the door. The concierge heard the knock, opened the door a crack, and looked out. When he saw that the person standing outside the door was Qin Yi, he couldn't help showing a hint of surprise on his face, but this surprise was fleeting, replaced by a calm expression.
"It's the Third Young Master. Why are you here so early?" asked the doorman.
"I want to meet the Third Young Lady." Qin Yi replied anxiously.
The doorman nodded, stepped aside, and gestured to Qin Yi to come in: "Third Young Master, please come in. Uncle and Miss are waiting in the living room now."
Qin Yi walked into the main hall with steady steps, and after a glance, his eyes fixed on Su Mingyuan and Su Yue. At this moment, they were sitting there leisurely, savoring the fragrance of tea.
"Ayi, you're here." Su Mingyuan was the first to notice Qin Yi's arrival. He showed a gentle smile on his face and greeted him softly.
Qin Yi politely saluted Su Mingyuan: "Hello, cousin." Then he walked quickly towards Su Yue, his eyes full of concern: "How is your injury? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Seeing this, Su Yue raised the corners of her mouth slightly, outlining a shallow arc: "Much better, thank you for your concern."
When Qin Yi heard this, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. He breathed a long sigh of relief: "That's good. Last night, I was worried about your injury and couldn't sleep." While speaking, his eyes never left Su Yue's face.
Su Yue looked at Qin Yi and said softly, "It's nothing serious, just some superficial injuries. Is cousin Lu okay?" Qin Yi frowned, his tone carrying a hint of self-blame, "Last night, after I sent cousin Lu home, I returned to the mansion and learned that something happened to you. It was late at night, and you were all asleep when I came over, so I didn't go in to disturb you. I'm really sorry for not being able to protect you."
Su Yue smiled slightly, trying to comfort Qin Yi: "It's okay, I met the Fourth Prince yesterday, and he found a carriage to send me back. The Fourth Prince also asked the imperial physician to treat me. He said that there is no big problem, they are just minor wounds, and I will recover after a few days of rest. I plan to rest here and recuperate during this period of time." Qin Yi nodded in agreement.
Su Yue asked with some doubt: "Then you don't have to go to the academy for classes?" Qin Yi shook his head and answered firmly: "No, these few days won't matter. There is still half a year before the autumn examination." Su Yue thought for a moment and felt that what Qin Yi said made sense, so she no longer insisted.
Then, Su Yue said to Qin Yi: "Okay, then let Butler Liu arrange a courtyard for you to live in. I am injured now and need to recuperate quietly." Qin Yi quickly agreed and said that he would do as Su Yue said.
Su Yue went back to her courtyard first, and Su Mingyuan led Qin Yi to the study. As soon as they entered the study, Su Mingyuan began to tell what Su Yue had experienced last night. Qin Yi listened silently, and at the same time he remembered the scene of the city defense camp busy all night and searching the whole city last night. It is said that several mansions were robbed, including the Subei Palace and the residence of Prime Minister Xie. Today, Luoyang Ling is still working hard to deal with this case.
What is puzzling is that the houses that were robbed were all old ministers during the reign of Emperor Cheng. These thieves seemed to be looking for a specific item, but after turning the mansion into a mess, there was no news of the loss of valuables. In addition, not only did a fire break out last night, but assassins also appeared on the streets. Except for the incident of Su Yue's horse frightening that caused some people to be injured and bleed, others were just frightened, and there were no reports of casualties. Even more bizarre is that Qin Jin did not return home all night last night, and the Jinwu Guards are also investigating this matter. It seems that those assassins just want to disrupt the city defense order and create panic among the people.
Although Qin Yi was unable to handle the major affairs in the city, he decided to investigate the kidnapping of Su Yue last night. Especially in Tongtuofang, where there were all kinds of people, people could not help but wonder if the assassin was from a hostile country? After all, such a thing was not impossible to happen.
In addition, Qin Yi knew that this matter was of great importance. If the truth was not found out as soon as possible, it might bring greater danger to the people in the city. Therefore, he decided to go out in person and find a reliable person to investigate. However, the situation in Tongtuofang was very complicated, and it was not easy to find clues from it.
First of all, most of the residents here are Hu people, and their living habits and cultural backgrounds are completely different from those of Qin Yi and others. Secondly, Tongtuofang is a commercial area with a huge flow of people, and various news spreads quickly, making it difficult to track effective information.
Faced with such a difficult situation, Qin Yi did not back down. With his wisdom and courage, he went deep into Tongtuofang and communicated with local residents, trying to get some valuable clues from them. At the same time, he also used his personal connections to inquire about the assassin's news.
In this process, Qin Yi encountered many difficulties and challenges. But he always believed that as long as he persisted, he would be able to find the answer. Finally, after some efforts, Qin Yi gradually grasped some key clues and began to check the suspects one by one.
As the investigation deepened, Qin Yi found that things were much more complicated than he had imagined. It turned out that there was a huge conspiracy behind this hijacking incident, involving the interests of many forces. And the mysterious assassin was just a pawn in the whole conspiracy.
Faced with such a complicated situation, can Qin Yi successfully uncover the truth behind it? How will he deal with the crises and challenges that come one after another? Everything is still unknown...
