Chapter 1018 Entering the City
Lin Yiwan pressed on, "What's the surrounding terrain like? Is there any way to sneak into the city?"
Zi'er gritted her teeth and said, "Of course not. Jingcheng is easy to defend but hard to attack. Unless they take the initiative to welcome us into the city, otherwise, it will be like an iron barrel, no one can rush in!"
Lin Yiwan closed her eyes tightly, thinking that the solution to the problem must still be in the Wu family.
After all, Commander Wu holds a high position in the army. If Old Madam Wu is seriously ill, the soldiers will definitely let them into the city.
Thinking of this, she said, "Zi'er, let's go talk to Madam Wu!"
When the two men arrived at Mrs. Wu's yard, they were stopped by the gatekeeper.
She said distantly, "Our wife has gone to bed. If you two have anything to ask, you can come back tomorrow morning to see her!"
Zi'er shouted in a deep voice: "How dare you! When the wife of the Marquis of Zhan Yi comes to visit, your wife will also avoid her?"
The gatekeeper was stunned. What Marquis's wife? Wasn't she the female doctor who treated the old lady?
I think it must be a scam!
Her face darkened at the thought.
She taunted him, "Our lady and young lady took you in out of kindness, but you refused to settle down and even created a fake identity to deceive others. In my opinion, you are just asking for a fight!"
She gave an order and called over several maids, who then attacked the two men with sticks.
Zi'er protected Lin Yiwan and retreated, and kicked all the maids to the ground in a few moves.
At this time, the fight outside also alarmed Mrs. Wu and her daughter. She hurriedly came out with her clothes draped over her shoulders and asked, "What's going on? Why did they suddenly start fighting out of nowhere?"
The gatekeeper immediately complained, "Madam, it was them. They actually fabricated a false identity and tried to fool you!"
Mrs. Wu asked in surprise, "What fake identity?"
Lin Yiwan slowly spoke: "My name is Lin Yiwan, and I am the mistress of the current Zhan Yihou Mansion!"
Madam Wu was horrified. Oh my God, isn't this the daughter of Prince Li, the most honorable marquis' wife in the dynasty?
No wonder his medical skills are so advanced!
It's her!
Thinking of this, she pulled Wu Jin'er to her knees and said, "Your humble servant pays respects to the Marquis' wife. This old woman was blind and offended you, please don't bother with her!"
Lin Yiwan reached out and pulled her up: "I have something to tell you, let's go inside first!"
Mrs. Wu invited her into the room, and Zi'er quickly closed the door.
Wu Jin'er looked at Lin Yiwan curiously and said, "Madam Hou, you concealed your identity and came to our manor. Are you trying to find out how to get into the city?"
Lin Yiwan nodded. "Miss Wu is very clever. I have come up with a good idea. We can go to the city gate and plead with them, saying that the old lady is seriously ill, and force them to open the gate!"
Madam Wu sighed, "I'm afraid it won't work. When Mother first had her attack, I personally went to the city gate to beg Chen Qingzhi, but he refused. He even told me to consider the overall situation and not harm the men who stayed in the mansion!"
Lin Yiwan knew that Mrs. Wu was threatened, so she didn't dare to make a fuss. But now, if she didn't make a fuss, those children hanging on the city wall would have no chance of survival.
She spoke quickly, "Madam, don't worry. Take me with you this time. I promise to make Chen Qingzhi open the city gate and let you return to the Commander's Mansion!"
Madam Wu looked at her in shock. "Madam Hou, you're going to get involved? What if your identity is exposed?"
Lin Yiwan comforted him, "It'll be fine. The maids beside me can protect me. I just need you to take me to the Commander's Mansion, and then we can use a trick to capture Chen Qingzhi!"
Mrs. Wu was still considering it, but Wu Jin'er had already spoken: "Okay, I'll put my grandmother on the carriage and announce to everyone that you are the farm's female doctor. They shouldn't be suspicious!"
In just a moment, three carriages were rushing towards the city gate under the cover of night.
As the city gate was in sight, the children tied with ropes on the surrounding edges let out one shrill scream after another.
The patrolling soldier nearby shouted impatiently, "If anyone dares to cry again, I'll throw you right out!"
The children were so frightened that they didn't even dare to cry.
At this time, Wu Jin'er was already standing at the bottom of the city gate. She shouted loudly, "Is anyone there? I am Wu Jin'er, the daughter of Commander Wu in the city. My grandmother is critically ill and needs to be admitted to the city for medical treatment as soon as possible. Please let us in!"
The gatekeeper's expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously wanted to run out.
A tall, sinister man blocked him in the act: "Commander Hu, why are you in such a hurry to go out?"
Commander Hu said with a pale face, "Reporting to Commander Chen, it was Miss Jin'er who shouted from below, saying that the old lady is in critical condition!"
Chen Qingzhi snorted coldly: "I'm not deaf!"
Commander Hu asked cautiously, "Should we let them in? The old lady is in poor health. If anything happens to her, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain to Lord Wu!"
A fierce look flashed in Chen Qingzhi's eyes. He didn't expect that the Wu family would come to him again at the critical moment.
If they were family members from an ordinary mansion, he would have sent them away with just a few words.
If they didn't listen, he would kill them.
But the Wu family is different!
These soldiers guarding the city gate were all trained by Commander Wu!
He must come up with a plausible reason to send the Wu family away!
Thinking of this, he said, "First, have someone bring Wu Jin'er up so I can talk to her!"
Soon, Wu Jiner, with a cold expression, was brought in front of Chen Qingzhi.
He asked in a deep voice, "Jin'er, is your grandmother so seriously ill?"
Wu Jin'er said dissatisfiedly: "Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, you can find a doctor to check it out!"
Chen Qingzhi put on a smile and said, "Jin'er, don't be angry. It's not that I don't want to help you, but I've received orders from your father not to let anyone in. I'm really in a difficult situation!"
Wu Jin'er's eyes widened in disbelief. "What did you say? You received orders from my father? Did he ask you to lead the troops to do these things?"
Chen Qingzhi nodded hurriedly: "Yes, even those children hanging outside were your father's idea. He has long been dissatisfied with City Lord Mo. As his subordinate, I can only obey his orders!"
Wu Jin'er was immediately furious. She knew very well that her father was upright and especially loyal to the court. How could he have the idea of seizing power?
It must be that bastard Chen Qingzhi who did bad things under his name. I guess my father is in great danger now.
Thinking of this, she said sternly, "Since it's my father's order, you shouldn't stop us. Open the city gate immediately. If anything happens to my grandmother, you'll be held responsible!"
