Peerless Female Bandit: Carry A Husband Home - C223

Although Yue Ying did not stop on the way, it was still four days later when she arrived in Shang Jing.

She first went to the West Mansion, and Tie Ji was very surprised to see her. “You actually dare to come here?”

Yue Ying curled her lips and said, “I have something to do, the people of East Palace are almost gone, I don’t know what good stuff is hidden in the map, so many people want it, it’s not safe in the Hou Mansion, I want to take it away.”

Tie Ji thought for a while and said, “Could it be that you didn’t take it out last time?”

Yue Ying said with disdain, “I never wanted this thing, you think that everyone likes to cause trouble? I only did not return it to Tie Yi because she said it was a scourge, I was worried that he would be implicated by the map.”

Tie Ji raised his head and looked at Yue Ying’s serious look, and said: “Then where did you put the map?”

“In the room where they locked me up. I said I didn’t take it, and I don’t have to lie about it.”

Before Yue Ying could finish speaking, Tie Ji shouted out the window, “Who is eavesdropping?”

As he said that, he immediately pulled on a bronze bracelet on the door. After the “ka ka ka” sounds rang out, a miserable shriek could be heard from the courtyard.

The two of them quickly went to the backyard and took a look, “Hong Xing!”

Yue Ying looked at her in shock. The arrow that had shot out from her body had turned her into a hedgehog.

“Why did you eavesdrop?” Yue Ying grabbed her neck and asked.

Hong Xing closed her eyes in shame and stopped moving.

Tie Ji said indifferently, “Letting her die like that is letting her off too easily. The assassin that shot at the old lady is her.”

“Why?” Yue Ying never thought that Hong Xing would actually do such a thing. She had served Old Lady Wang for so many years, and the Old Lady Wang was not unkind to her, how could she have offended her?

“Because the old lady wanted to kick her out, so she was bribed by someone else.”

“If you know, why didn’t you catch her earlier and let her succeed?”

“I didn’t know it at the beginning. It was because you said there was something wrong with Murong Yun. When I stared at him, I realized that she was actually in contact with a spy from the imperial government.”

Tie Ji laughed bitterly, “You know, for people like us, the Emperor rewards us with blatant schemes. Everyone has an understanding of each other, and if there is anything major, we can only hide it from each other, and not fight against each other. Otherwise, if the Emperor randomly finds a wrong Iron family, it will end here. Furthermore, there are also people out there, we can’t drag them down! ”

Yue Ying frowned, “Then what you mean is that the people that the Emperor has bestowed upon us should not be touched no matter what?”

Tie Ji nodded his head and said helplessly, “Those people have been in this mansion for a long time. The old lady knows very well that this is the reason why the old lady was assassinated this time around.”

“Is it that the emperor forbids or that person has ulterior motives?”

Half of it. I don’t know how the information on the map leaked out, but only a few people know about it. Even the emperor’s hidden pillar isn’t very clear.

Yue Ying nodded, “Then what about him?”

Tie Ji shook the bell under the roof, and after a while, a few female soldiers appeared. They were all around fifty years old, and the leader looked at the corpse on the ground, without saying a word, and only waited for Tie Ji’s orders.

“Drag her out, then return her corpse to our family. She tried to steal the corpse, but it was too late to save her. On account of her serving the old lady for so many years, let’s give her a coffin!”

The leading female soldier nodded, “Drag him away!”

The few of them swiftly dragged the man out. The leader of the group took a few steps forward and looked like he wanted to turn back. His steps paused but he did not turn around. After pausing for a moment, he continued walking forward.

Tie Ji blinked his eyes, “Let’s go see the old lady. She is much better now, he should be happy to see you.”

Yue Ying nodded and came to Old Lady Wang’s house. Old Lady Wang was practicing her techniques and her movements were still stiff, but she looked much better than before.

“Ying’er pays respects to grandma.” Yue Ying said with a smile.

Old Lady Wang suddenly raised her head when she heard Yue Ying’s voice, “Why is it you?”

She immediately looked outside to see if there was anyone, then ordered Tie Ji, “Go out and watch, don’t let anyone who doesn’t know come disturb our family.”

Tie Ji laughed and supported himself on the ground as he walked further and further away.

Old Lady Wang held onto Yue Ying’s hand tightly, “You damned girl, you didn’t come to see me for such a long time, I love you for nothing.”

Yue Ying laughed and said, “I am doing this for your own good, the Emperor wants to kill me, how can I dare to run around randomly?

Old Lady Wang frowned and stomped her feet, “They were hiding everything from me?”

Yue Ying said, “They are doing this for your own good, if not how could your body heal so quickly!”

“You don’t need to coax me, I’m already an old trash. Anyone who sees me would be frustrated.”

Yue Ying smiled and comforted her, “Old granny, don’t be angry, the person who harmed you already has a clue.

Old Lady Wang looked at Yue Ying and slowly said, “Was the commotion in the courtyard caused by this?”

Yue Ying was surprised, “You really have heard it clearly, don’t you?

The old lady was quite pleased with herself. “Not bad. If you really can’t hear anything and can’t see anything, then that’s great. I don’t want to get annoyed. Who knows you can’t!”

Yue Ying covered her mouth and laughed, “This is the old lady’s fortune! I don’t think I can do that. Who told me to be stupid! ”

The two of them continued to chat and laugh, as if nothing had happened in the courtyard just now.

Suddenly, a sharp voice came from outside the door, “It’s precisely because the old granny’s health is not good that we need to quickly look for ways to deal with her. What are you trying to do by stopping us? Could it be that he wanted to murder the old lady? Then we must go in and take a look. ”

Yue Ying could tell that the one who spoke was the little girl beside Murong Yun. She didn’t want others to know that she had come to the Hou Mansion, so she wanted to reduce the trouble.

Old Lady Wang nodded her head.

Thus, when Murong Yun and Dong Yan entered the house, they only saw the old lady fighting.

Murong Yun teasingly chatted with the old lady for a while. Dong Yan, on the other hand, was looking around the house. Finally, near the doorstep, he found a little dirt that was stained with grass. She made a plan in her heart, gave Murong Yun a look, and the two of them took their leave.

The dirt was just too small, and Old Lady Wang could not see it clearly with her old eyes, so she did not pay too much attention to it.
