A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Yesterday at the Huguo Temple, Li Hu saw with his own eyes the lady in front of him, looking at the eldest daughter of the Li family with disgust.

If his guess was correct, the person in front of him had a grudge against the eldest daughter of the Li family, or even against the entire Li family.

He was betting that the man in front of him also wanted to overthrow the Li family.

Naturally, he was also gambling with his life.

Su Qingyu looked at the man in surprise, thinking about his words in her mind.

Jiang Qi reminded from the side, "Madam, someone is chasing us out of the woods soon."

Su Qingyu made a prompt decision, "Let him hide in the vegetable cart, behind those big baskets, and we'll continue on our way."

After giving the order, Su Qingyu turned around and got on the carriage.

Jiang Qiye quickly sent Li Hu to the vegetable cart, and then asked him to hide behind a large basket of vegetables and covered it with felt cloth.

After settling the people down, Jiang Qi asked, "Master, may I ask about your identity? What do you know about the Li family?"

He always had to ask for a rough idea before he could judge how much risk he was willing to take for this person.

The monk hesitated for a moment and said, "I was the deputy general beside His Royal Highness the King of War. My name is Li Hu."

"I know the truth about Prince Zhan's rebellion in Beijing, and I also know how Princess Yongning died."

Jiang Qi was shocked. His Royal Highness the King of War who had rebelled and entered the capital and was beheaded?

But the situation at the moment did not allow him to think too much. Jiang Qi got on the carriage again, and with a "Gee", the carriage slowly started moving.

After walking a hundred meters, a team of guards rushed down the mountain.

Leading the group were Chen Ping and Jia Huai. Before Chen Ping could see whose carriage it was, he shouted, "Stop."

Immediately afterwards, dozens of guards, at Chen Ping's signal, surrounded the carriage.

Su Qingyu looked outside through the car window, her brows furrowed.

At this time, Jiang Qi had already gotten off the carriage and walked to Chen Ping. "General Chen, what do you mean?"

He did not mention who was in the car, but just looked at Chen Ping coldly. No matter who was in the car, Chen Ping had no right to stop them.

Chen Ping stepped forward, clasped his fists and said to Jiang Qi, "We are following the orders of Her Royal Highness Princess Yongjia to catch an assassin. Did Guard Jiang see anyone coming down the mountain just now?"

Jiang Qi shook his head and replied seriously: "I didn't see him. I was in a hurry to return to Beijing and didn't notice if there was anyone around."

"General Chen, please take your time to search. We will not accompany you."

He turned around and drove away, not taking Chen Ping seriously.

As Mr. Shen Sanye's personal bodyguard, Jiang Qi does have the capital to do so.

But before he could reach the car, he was blocked by Chen Ping's men again.

"Guard Jiang, don't leave in such a hurry. We have been ordered by Her Royal Highness the Princess to find this assassin."

"I was wondering if that person might be hiding in your carriage. How about this, let's search it. If there's no one there, you can return to the capital without any worries."

Jiang Qi's face darkened, "How dare you! Do you know who is in the car? How dare you openly search the Shen family's car frame? If you want to search, go and ask for an imperial decree."

Chen Ping didn't know who was in the carriage, but he guessed it was definitely not Mr. Shen San. Judging from the woman following behind the carriage, it should be a female relative.

As long as it wasn't Mr. Shen San, this matter would be easy to handle. At worst, if they didn't find anything, they could go to the Shen family to apologize. Would the Shen family still want their lives?

Chen Ping said in a clear voice: "If I have disturbed the nobles of the Shen family, I will go to the Shen family later to apologize. But this matter is of great importance, no matter who is in the car, they should be able to understand."

"If Lord Shen were here, he would definitely not embarrass us."

Su Qingyu sat in the carriage and said, "There are women from Prince Ning's Mansion and Marquis Pingning's Mansion in the carriage. It is not convenient to search them."

"If General Chen suspects that we are harboring a criminal, he can go and talk to the Third Master and His Royal Highness Prince Ning."

"We women don't understand the rules of the court."

Chen Ping recognized that the person in the car was Su Qingyu, and he bowed and said, "Mrs. Shen San has misunderstood. I don't suspect that the Shen family is harboring a criminal. It's just that this person is extremely vicious. If we don't find him, it may hurt Mrs. San and the young ladies."

Su Qingyu said coldly: "General Chen, don't worry about this. The guards of my Shen family are not so incompetent."

"Let's put it this way. If we really find someone hiding after returning to Beijing, the Shen family will send that person to the Shanning Marquis's Mansion."

"Jiang Qi, let's go."

Su Qingyu gave an order, Jiang Qi responded with a "yes", and prepared to drive away.

The situation at this time was a stalemate. Either Chen Ping didn't dare to take action and let them go, or the Shen family couldn't stand Chen Ping's fifty guards and handed them over.

In fact, Chen Ping was not sure whether the man was in the Shen family's carriage, but the more the Shen family refused to allow the search, the more he could not give in.

Su Qingyu wasn’t sure whether what the monk said was true, but the more Chen Ping wanted to capture people, the more she couldn’t let him go.

Hearing Su Qingyu say that she was leaving, Chen Ping said in a cold voice, "If the general insists on searching today, I'll offend him."

As he spoke, his men took two steps forward, narrowing the range in which Jiang Qi and the others could move.

Su Shunci bit her lower lip and turned to ask Su Qingyu: "Big sister, what should we do now?"

Su Qingyu said in a deep voice: "Drag it out until the Third Master comes."

Shen Zhixiu said he would come to pick her up, and he would definitely come.

In this situation, if Jiang Qi fights head-on, he has no chance of winning. So he can only drag it out until Shen Zhixiu arrives, and everything will be solved.

Even if Chen Ping had eight hundred guts, he would not dare to attack Shen Zhixiu.

After saying that, Su Qingyu reached out and lifted the car curtain, intending to get out of the car and negotiate with Chen Ping in person.

Su Shunci reached out and grabbed her, "Big sister, you can't go down."

"Isn't it just to delay Chen Ping? I'll go."

"I am the daughter of Prince Ning's Mansion after all. How dare he lay a hand on me?"

Su Zhilan's eyes lit up with excitement when she heard this, "I'll go with Fourth Sister."

The little girl didn't know that her life was in danger, and she only wanted to hold the bad guy back by herself. Such a heroic thing doesn't always come with an opportunity.

How could Su Qingyu let her two sisters take risks? She lowered her voice and said, "Nonsense, you guys just wait in the car."

However, Su Shunci refused to let her get out and lifted the car curtain and jumped out. Su Zhilan also got out of the car regardless of Su Qingyu's attempt to stop her.

At this moment, Jiang Qi and Chen Ping were already on the verge of a fight. Chen Ping said to Jiang Qi, "Guard Jiang, please discuss this with Madam Three. If she still doesn't allow the search, we can only use force."

Of course, this was just Chen Ping's bluff. He didn't want to use force. Her Royal Highness the Princess had plans for the Shen family, and this was not the time to fall out with the Shen family.
