The villain is far from my CP!

"In two days, I will go to Yizhong with you to have a look."

Bai Qiao pondered for a while with his eyes down, and suddenly said this.

These words startled everyone, Bai Xiao was the first to jump up and object.

"I've seen the code word Bai Qing made with the abacus, and the single word is 'escape'," Bai Xiao looked serious, "She probably thought we were outside, so she warned us not to get close to Qianfang."

Everything is so dangerous, so Qi Jingmin can go to the place that Qi Jingmin used to store gunpowder and other important things casually, if he fails, he will end up in pieces!

What's more, Uncle He, Qi Yunzheng's poison master, showed some disapproval.

"Although I don't know what the girl is going to do, but the old man has heard about the girl's methods, and I don't think that if something happens to the girl, our group can handle the follow-up silver-related matters."

From beginning to end, Uncle He thought with all his heart that Baiqiao would, like the gods descending from the earth, make bank notes one after another, and use them to buy medicinal materials for Santang Pharmacy.

I don't know...

"Follow-up, related to silver?" The girl raised her eyebrows slightly, her voice was brisk, but it was quite chilling: "There will be nothing related to silver in the follow-up."

"Yizhong Bookstore and Santang Pharmacy are both on Jinzhao Street. I am here to personally deliver a letter to Xijiang on Xiaohui's behalf." The girl turned around and smiled flamboyantly. The mess that has been going on for a long time, it is time for him to clean up for me."

As the saying goes, sometimes the best offense is the best defense.

In the past ten years, Qi Changting has been passively defending under the shadow of Qi Jingmin, just like in the original book, even at the end, there is no chance to take the initiative to fight back.

Now that she has her, he may have made some achievements in terms of money, but after all, he has not touched the fundamentals, otherwise Qi Jingmin would not be able to collect such a large amount of ammunition in the end.

If you want to completely crush Qi Jingmin, you can only take down the biggest backer behind him.

Then there is only one way to go.

——Going against the sky.

"Looking at it today, it's going to rain again."

Ye Mansion, by the lotus pond in the backyard, Ye Huan was wearing a lavender skirt, and murmured softly.

"Yeah, it looks like it's going to rain."

Behind the colonnade, another girl echoed softly.

It was Bai Qing.

Bai Qing turned her eyes slightly, and looked at Ye Huan on the other side of the pillar.

She, the daughter of a businessman in Wu County, actually stood with the dignified daughter of the prime minister's family and chatted with each other.

Two years ago, she must have thought this was a fairy tale.

But right now, she is really standing next to Ye Huan, and...

I don't think it's such a good day.

——"It has nothing to do with family background."

Bai Qiao said this to her back then.

It is said that if she still insists on going her own way and puts her honor and disgrace on others, then even if she is a noble daughter in Beijing, or even a child in the palace, she will not end well.

She felt that Bai Qiao was just talking nonsense while standing up and talking without pain in his back. He just lied to her that he hadn't seen the big world.

But in the past two years, after Yan Tong married her, his lust remained unchanged and he went around promiscuously. She tried to struggle at first, but it was useless, and she was even beaten again.

I don't know when, the appearance of Bai Qiao being respected by Qi Changting is like a ghost, lingering in her mind for a long time.

She wanted to live like that.

Does she like Yan Tong?

Bai Qing asked herself.

This question is easy to answer.

After all, who likes garbage like that?

So she changed into a bloated women's outfit and started to learn.

Learn math, learn business, learn to be like that person, and then prove that those are all lies.

As long as she climbs up, as long as she can enter Dongdu, it will be different.

But now, a scribbled letter by Qi Jingmin gratefully summoned the Yan family and the Bai family to Dongdu, and she was even sent directly to the current prime minister's residence.

The thing to do is to persuade Ye Huan to marry Qi Jingmin.

Qi Jingmin is the eldest prince of the dynasty, why doesn't he get married? Does it need to be persuaded?

She kept thinking like this until she saw Ye Huan, and heard many things in this eastern capital from her mouth.

It turned out that what Bai Qiao said at the beginning seemed to be true.

Even if it is the daughter of the prime minister of the current dynasty, even the prince of the current dynasty, they are all proposing a marriage like a dog.

And people, once they entrust their fate on others, such as a marriage, will be unlucky.

Ye Huan didn't know what was going on in Bai Qing's mind, but just quietly watched the wind make ripples on the lake.

Miss Ye has been under house arrest since Qi Jingmin was demoted to a commoner and the Ye family's position was unclear in the queen's temptation.

Her impression of Baiqiao was very complicated. Now that she saw the woman who was said to be Baiqiao's first sister, she also became interested. She told Bai Qing about the Eastern Capital and observed Bai Qing's reaction.

Seeing that Bai Qing is not like Bai Qiao, showing her unexpected reactions all the time, I feel more or less relieved.

In this world, not everyone is like Bai Qiao.

At least ninety-nine percent are ordinary women like myself.

"Did you do that thing you said you wanted to do but didn't dare to do a few days ago?" Ye Huan suddenly remembered something, looked away from the lake, and looked at Bai Qing.

It's a pity that Bai Qing refused to tell her what the matter was anyway.

Ye Huan guessed for a while, and then felt that guessing a merchant woman's mind was a bit cheap, so he gave up.

Today I thought about it again.

Probably because the pillars blocked the view, Ye Huan didn't see Bai Qing's body that froze for a moment after hearing the words.

It's raining.

The fine raindrops fell on the lake and disappeared.

But the stone mill abacus standing at the gate of Qianfang will not.

Bai Qing turned her head, lowered her eyebrows and shook her head, looking completely frustrated.

Ye Huan didn't say a word, but looked at the Crescent Gate behind him.

She is not alone in what she wants to do but dare not do.

"That……"

Bang!

Ye Huan was about to ask something more, when there was a loud noise from the southwest direction.

Like thunder in a summer night rainstorm, it shakes people's eardrums in a daze.

The two looked up at the sky at the same time, and then looked at the place where the sound came from at the same time.

The sky is still gray, not thunder.

"That direction seems to be..."

Jin Zhao Street?

The sky was gloomy, and the business of the shops on Jinzhao Street was not very good, and the guys were all drowsy.

As the most vulnerable store in rainy days, the bookstore is very nervous.

Yizhong Bookstore is rich and powerful, and seeing that it was raining, they simply pulled up a huge oil paper cloth, trying to cover all the things in the library.

But at this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the ear.

Some are like the small movement of a mouse running quickly against the wall.

The guys looked at each other, and anxiety flashed in their eyes.

They all knew how important and terrifying things were in this room, so they hurried forward to check.

But then, before everyone could get close, there was a loud sound and blast in the room.

Bang!

Fragments of the arrow shaft mixed with the earthen tiles that fell from the roof burst out vigorously, accompanied by gray-white smoke that choked the nose.

The guys who were able to get down in time were seriously injured but still survived. However, those who reacted slowly at that time and didn't have time to move, when the smoke cleared, they couldn't even find their bodies.

gunpowder.

This must be that thing called gunpowder!

The survivors were full of horror, thinking so.

But the gunpowder was placed there properly, and the people above clearly said that it would only explode when it encountered overheating weather or an open flame. Today, neither of them will be occupied, how is it possible!

The movement on Jinzhao Street was so loud that it could be heard from Changle Street in the north, not to mention Xishui Street nearby.

And Shenghe in the middle of Xishui Street.

Qi Jingmin was leisurely tasting a pot of tribute wine sent by the palace, when he was almost startled by the loud noise, he almost bit his tongue.

All the fine clear tribute wine was spilled on his sleeves, the man looked gloomy, and swept the entire jug to the ground.

He was about to ask what was going on, when something suddenly flashed through his mind.

southwest.

Such movements...

"!"

"Your Highness, Your Highness is not good!"

However, before he could thoroughly clarify the matter, a guard rushed in with a face full of horror and announced the final bad news.

"It exploded, the gunpowder exploded!"

"The guns and armor we prepared are... all destroyed!"

It is not easy to quietly hide a batch of arms in the eastern capital, under the feet of the emperor, and in front of the eyes of all officials.

Therefore, the Queen and Qi Jingmin racked their brains and only made Yi Zhong Shupu as a resident.

Eggs cannot be put in one basket.

Otherwise, if it falls, there will only be a basket left.

And more importantly, don't put things that could explode in the same basket as your eggs.

Otherwise, if it falls, there will be no basket left.

The roof of Yizhong Bookstore was belatedly billowing gray smoke.

For a moment, I couldn't tell whether the smoke stained the rainy day, or the rainy day swallowed up the gray smoke.

Qi Jingmin's pupils shrank sharply, at this moment, he didn't even have time to get angry.

Ammunition, gone.

That was his last resort.

Last!

When Shenghe is gone, he is not afraid, he still has Tongle.

When the Tongle is gone, he is not afraid, he can still make a big scene on New Year's Eve.

Later, his ear was damaged and he was relegated to the common people, but he was still not afraid. He had a queen mother inside and arms outside. As long as Qi Changting and Qi Yunzheng died outside, what would happen if those people wouldn't let him ascend the throne.

If he refuses, he will enter the palace!

But now, the ammunition is gone.

In case, in case Qi Changting is not dead, in case Qi Yunzheng defeats the Northern Turks, they will definitely fight back, then he...

Unprecedented fear gripped his heart tightly, and it became tighter and tighter.

How is it possible, it is raining today, how could the gunpowder explode!

"Enter the palace, enter the palace, I want to see the empress!"

Qi Jingmin's ears were still buzzing after being shaken by the loud noise just now, and his mind was not so clear-headed that he even forgot that he is just a common man now, and he is not even qualified to take a look at the palace gate.

But the subordinates didn't dare to touch Qi Jingmin's bad luck at this time, they immediately carried the sedan chair to send him into the palace.

However, before the group saw the palace gate, they heard the sound of horseshoes approaching rapidly behind them.

"Hurry up at eight hundred miles!" The soldiers who sent the letter shouted loudly, jubilantly: "The frontier has won a great victory, the third highness survived a near death, defeated the Western Turks, and has now set off to return with the Beiwu army that was transferred away at the beginning." The east is gone!"

Big win.

Qi Changting, a big victory.

Not only did Qi Changting not die, but he also defeated the Western Turks? !

And, and...

The sedan chair continued to move forward, but Qi Jingmin inside barely caught his breath, and his fingers twitched uncontrollably.

Qi Changting, lead the troops, come to Dongdu!
