Glued up by my father's nemesis

In Beijing City, Qi Tongfu got off the morning court, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Steward Qian hurriedly greet him.

"Master..." Steward Qian stepped forward to take Qi Tongfu's cloak, bowed and whispered, "Master, what happened?"

"Qi Jingsi?" Qi Tongfu asked suspiciously: "He has Guangji watching, what could happen."

A month ago, Qi Jingsi returned to Beijing and went in and out with Yan Fei every day. Although the two of them didn't show off in a high-profile manner, they didn't plan to hide it at all. His whereabouts were always under Qi Tongfu's nose.

Qi Tongfu has never dared to take any action, and the one who is afraid is Lin Yu.

He has known Lin Yu for twenty years, and based on his understanding of Mr. Guangji, since Lin Yu was able to see through so much before, he must have known the situation in Beijing already.

Since Lin Yu and Qi Jingsi were deeply in love and did not hesitate to take Qi Jingsi away without hesitation, it is certainly impossible to let Qi Jingsi return to Beijing alone.

Although no news of Lin Yu was found after repeated searches in Beijing, he never dared to act rashly.

The more you can't find it, the more terrifying it is.

There was only one place in the entire Beijing city that he could not move, and that was the territory of the Lin family. The more the whereabouts of the youngest son of the Lin family became a mystery, the more he wanted to cover it up.

In Qi Tongfu's mind, this was simply Lin Yu's drumming to sing against him. He had to guard against it, so he didn't have time to worry about Qi Jingsi's little things.

"Earlier this morning, the people who followed discovered that the young master and Zhuangyuanlang had gone out of the city together..." Speaking of this, Steward Qian showed a look of embarrassment, "The people who followed didn't know what to do, so they hurriedly sent someone Come report."

Qi Tongfu walked into the door of the study, sat down in the huanghuali armchair in the middle, loosened the collar and said casually: "Where did you go this time?"

Steward Qian followed behind and closed the door of the study room, examined it again and again, his eyes were furtive, and after making sure that there was no one on the partition wall, he stepped forward and said in a low voice, "You County."

When Qi Tongfu heard this, his relaxed expression suddenly changed, and he slapped his desk and said, "Impossible!"

After Yan Fei returned to Beijing, he observed for a long time, but Li Fan did not give the new champion any more winks. This time, he asked his subordinates to recommend Yan Fei to You County. The original intention was to test Li Fan, but Li Fan was completely unmoved.

Regardless of whether Yan Fei is a member of the Fourth Highness' party or not, he has more or less evidence of his crimes in Ting County; before in Ting County, his subordinates had made many explicit hints to Yan Fei to no avail, since Yan Fei could not be used for his own , right now this chess piece has been discarded by Li Fan, so he might as well do whatever he can——

Let the secrets of Yanfei and You County be buried in the soil just like the riots of the previous year, so that they can rest easy in the future.

But why did Qi Jingsi suddenly intervene?

If Lin Yu knew his secret in You County, he would definitely stop Qi Jingsi; if not...

So what is Qi Jingsi going to do, is it really an outing?

The situation was turbulent at this time, in Qi Tongfu's eyes, even the old master Guangji came out of the mountain again, how could he let Qi Jingsi come out and fool around.

After thinking about it, it was impossible, so he calmed down and asked, "Some of you saw the young master enter the territory of You County with your own eyes?"

"That's not true." Steward Qian said frankly: "Young Master, even if you go out of the city in the morning, even if you go alone, you probably haven't reached You County at this hour, let alone..."

Behind Qi Jingsi was a carriage, with a champion in his arms.

"Then it's over?" Qi Tongfu said impatiently, "What are you chattering about with me here for nothing!"

"Master, don't forget..." Steward Qian said awkwardly, "Rumors in the capital these days..."

There are rumors in Beijing that it is nothing more than the fact that the high position Sanyuan and Di is very evil, and they only have broken sleeves.

"Hahaha——" Qi Tongfu laughed wildly all of a sudden, and said to himself madly, "Qi Jingsi, you still don't recognize you as my son?"

"Obviously everything looks like me!"

"But master..." Steward Qian worriedly said: "If that's the case, I'm afraid the young master will really follow Mr. Yan family this trip, what should we do?"

"The boundary of You County... once you step in..."

"It's very difficult to get out of the body."

"Little son and daughter are thinking, thinking that parting is imminent, so just go see them off, why are you panicking?" Qi Tongfu said calmly, "Guangji won't let him go."

"Master means..." Steward Qian tentatively asked, "Master Guangji already has an insight into our overall plan?"

"He is comparable to Cao Zijian's 'Big Dou Talent'—" Qi Tongfu said with emotion: "The Li Sheng Dynasty has no ancients in the first 100 years, and I am afraid that there will be few comers in the next 100 years..."

"He should at least have expected an eighth/ninth."

"Then...Master..." Steward Qian said hesitantly, "You are not afraid..."

"What are you afraid of!" Qi Tongfu suddenly looked coldly, "If he knows what I want to do, he must be able to stop it!"

If Lin Yu could know his overall plan, he should know that this was a business of ransacking his family and exterminating his family. He was certain that Lin Yu would not want Qi Jingsi to be buried with him, so he had only dared to hide behind the scenes for so long.

All he has to do is to win the battle before Lin Yu finds a solution. At that time, let alone the reincarnation of Wenquxing, even if Guanyin is alive, he can't help it.

"But master, if our young master really has some 'personal relationship' with the number one scholar..." Butler Qian carefully considered his words, "The number one scholar will never return this trip, aren't you afraid that the young master will hate you?"

"Hate? Hmph—" Qi Tongfu snorted coldly, "He even dared to fight with his own father, how can he 'remember' me even more?"

"He is still young, he loves this little thing, and he will forget it one day, as long as I wait for the day when I succeed, I will give him a bright future—"

"Are you afraid that there won't be a generation of new people who can beat the old people?"

knock knock --

There was a knock on the door, and outside the door came the respectful voice of Wen Gongliang's personal dowry maid, "Master, Madam heard that you are back, and asked the servant to ask, do you want to wait for you to eat together?"

"No." Qi Tongfu sat back in the armchair when he heard the sound, rubbing his brows with a tired face, "Tell Madam I still have work to do, so I won't accompany her."

The maidservant outside the door responded respectfully and retreated, and Steward Qian watched the figure walking away from the crack of the door before slowly sighing: "Master, this newcomer is not bad—"

"Can you really beat the old man?"

"There is only one Lin Guangji in the world..." Qi Tongfu looked downcastly, "So what if that little blind man from the Yan family is three yuan, and how can a stubborn stone be compared with a bright pearl!"

"No matter what, we can't afford to wait anymore. The closure of the village must go according to plan." He closed his eyes and waved his hand feebly, "Send someone to watch at the gate of the city, the young master is back Come and report to me again."

Steward Qian got the order and exited the study in a sensible manner.

After the person left, Qi Tongfu stepped on a certain floor tile and tapped it three times. A row of bookshelves behind him slowly opened, revealing a small secret room.

He got up slowly and walked into the secret room.

He is only 42 years old this year, and he is in the prime of life; just now he was still showing off his face outside, but now he is looking at the beautifully framed poems and books in the secret room in front of him, but his face is twilight.

"Guangji—"

He called Lin Yu's name, but the object of his speech was the dead thing in the secret room, murmuring in a low voice, like a whisper, or talking to himself.

"Why do you still stop me today?"

"Back then, if you were willing to go to Beijing with me, why would I use my ambition to assist such a waste as Li Pu?"

He smiled wistfully, with moist eyes, looking at the priceless authentic work of Mr. Guangji in front of him.

"With you and I working together, your little nephew is probably already enthroned now?"

"Do not--"

"Maybe this world belongs to your Lin family."

"Lin Yu!" His eyes were slack, but his tone of voice implied unwillingness, "Who has lost whom! And who..."

"Let these 20 years go to waste..."

*****

Although Qi Jingsi and Yan Fei were relaxed on the way, their preparations were not ambiguous at all; fortunately, before leaving, Qi Jingsi tied all the things they had prepared in advance to the horses, so they could find a ruined temple to deal with them that night .

Yan Fei slept on Qi Jingsi's arm all night and was covered in his arms. Even in the dilapidated Earth Temple, he didn't suffer any grievances. He woke up everyone refreshed early in the morning.

Since the imperial court document for this trip was for him to implement the spring planting, even if Qi Tongfu gave him an empty city, it would not prevent him from going to the fields first to have a look.

The path in the field is not easy to walk, Qi Jingsi has to take care of Yan Fei's eyes, and pay attention to Yan Yi behind Yan Fei who is blown down by the wind; The fields and acres near You County have been turned over and over.

The three teenagers got more and more palpitations as they walked.

Qi Tongfu really built an empty city.

In the field, the land is cracked and grass is overgrown, where is there any human being?

It was clearly dead silence.

On the way back, as dusk approached, Yan Fei tugged on Qi Jingsi's arm, out of breath.

"This land is deserted... There are two to 3000 people in the whole You County! Qi Tongfu... What did he do?"

Qi Jingsi remained silent, Yan Yi just followed cautiously, but just two steps away, when he came to the county town of You County, where last night was still as quiet as a dead city, there was a strange sound of music.

I'm afraid it's not accurate to say it's the music.

At first glance, the sound is exactly the cry of a hundred ghosts. Only after careful identification can the rhythm and drum beat inside be heard.

"Brother..." Yan Yi tightly clenched Yan Fei's sleeves, "Don't...don't be... haunted?"

"Zibuyu is strange." Yan Fei and Qi Jingsi looked at each other, patted the back of Yan Yi's hand, and stared at the direction of the voice, "Besides, ghost——"

"Will it be more terrifying than people?"

Qi Jingsi nodded, picked up Yan Fei with one hand, and made a silent movement with the other.

"Take it easy, let's go see who is pretending to be a 'ghost'."

Carrying Yan Fei and Yan Yi on his shoulders, he carefully hid his figure along the way, and followed the direction of the voice to the gate of the county government office last night.

The mansion looked like it was still a scene of people going to the empty building, but on the open space in front of it, a bunch of bonfires were set up high.

A few haggard old men with bare upper body and skirts tied up with turf and leaves danced around the bonfire, singing and singing plausibly.

That's how the strange tone came out just now.

A group of people surrounded the bonfire, bowing devoutly towards the bonfire.

They looked dressed as if they were ordinary country people, but looking at the situation, it seemed that they were performing some terrible cult ritual.

Qi Jingsi put Yan Fei down, and the others quietly hid behind the tree.

It was too far away, Yan Fei could only see a rough idea, and asked suspiciously, "Jiao Da Shen?"

Before Qi Jingsi could answer, Yan Yi suddenly pointed to another tree not far away, tremblingly said: "Brother..."

Ugin has sunk, and now the main light source comes from the pile of bonfires that are raised high and blazing.

In such a distance and light, Yan Fei couldn't see clearly what it was that frightened Yan Yi so much that he lost his soul. Even if he squinted his eyes and looked hard, he could only vaguely feel that there seemed to be a few people lying under the tree. .

He put his arm around Yan Yi's shoulder and comforted him, "What's wrong?"

Yan Yi could only shake his head desperately, shaking like chaff, sobbing in his throat, unable to utter a single word.

What Yan Fei couldn't see clearly, Qi Jingsi saw it all.

There were more than a dozen people "lying" under the tree, stacked together in a haphazard manner, and a layer of bamboo mats was spread on top of these people.

Only a few arms and legs fell out of the bamboo mat here and there, Qi Jingsi judged the approximate number of people in this way.

Before Yan Fei could comfort him, the villagers who had just knelt on the ground got up one after another, turned their heads and walked towards the bamboo mats "piled" under the tree.

Qi Jingsi hurriedly led the two of them to hide behind the tree, Yan Fei also quickly covered Yan Yi's sobbing mouth.

The old man who had just "jumped the gods" took the lead and lifted the bamboo mat, and several strong men stepped forward to carry the "person" who was "lying" under the bamboo mat, and walked to the campfire.

The "person" who was resisted was paralyzed and lifeless, and it was clearly a body——

Dead body.

After a person dies, the body becomes stiff first, and then slowly softens after a few days. These people are obviously not newly mourned, and the number is far greater than what Qi Jingsi estimated before.

Qi Jingsi had never really seen a corpse before, especially one that had been placed for so long. He saw the corpse being lifted in front of him, every exposing hand, foot, and even the face were covered with red spots. The so-called "corpse spots".

Yan Fei couldn't see so many things clearly, he could only roughly see that someone was carrying other people and was about to throw them into the fire and burn them.

He was so excited that he was about to get up, but was grabbed by Qi Jingsi.

"It's not a living person." Qi Jingsi lowered his voice and said, "It's a corpse."

"It's not a corpse..."

Yan Yi, who was finally let go by Yan Fei, stared blankly at the direction of the corpse, his gaze was dull, his voice trembling——

"It's the plague."

The author has something to say: You can always guess what the scumbag is doing this time, right?

It will be announced tomorrow, and I will give everyone time to spend together, A Yu's red envelope is just around the corner! ! !
