Because he sneaked out secretly, Qiu He didn't light a lantern. There was no moon that night, but the stars were very bright, and he could see his feet clearly without a lantern.

Qiu He held Ye Minwen's hand and walked tiptoeing along the road. Masters did not usually take this road, this road was specially used by maids and servants.

After leaving the east wing, Qiu He began to regret it. If she met some blind maid and was yelled out, she would be doomed. She prayed to God and prayed to Buddha in her heart, hoping that there would be no one in the way. Okay.

After walking through this long stretch of road, I didn't even meet anyone.

Qiu He was slightly relieved.

Ye Minwen followed Qiu He, looking very excited. "Sister Qiu He, how should we go?"

"Shh!" Qiu He whispered to Ye Minwen: "Young Master, we ran out quietly, but we better not let anyone know about it!"

Ye Minwen shrank his neck cutely and lowered his voice: "I understand, Sister Qiu He, I won't speak anymore!"

Qiu He nodded and continued walking with him.

After finally finishing the walk, Qiu He breathed a sigh of relief and took Ye Minwen to take the path to a small corner door in the northeast corner. Few people walked there. She knew that from there, she could walk a few steps to the Yangzhuang in the northeast corner.

It's Wolf's little yard. And although there is a gatekeeper there, he is relatively lax and should be easier to talk to.

At the second gate, the gatekeepers are all the confidants of the princess, so it is basically impossible to get out from there.

Because she was walking on a small road with shadows of trees on both sides, Qiu He felt hairy all over her body, but Ye Minwen, who was following her, was not very scared. He was indeed Ye Yichen's son.

Finally, we reached the small corner door. The gatekeeper was a fat old woman. From a distance, she saw Qiu He coming with a small figure. The old woman was sitting on the bench and was drowsy, but when she saw someone coming, she came immediately.

Spirit, loudly asked: "Who?"

"Mother Wang, it's me! I'm Qiu He from the eldest young master's room! Please keep your voice down!" Qiu He recognized this woman. She usually spent her days drinking and gambling, and was the most lazy, so she was punished to guard the door here.

Mother Wang also recognizes Qiu He. She was originally the concubine who stayed with the princess. She has always been fawning over her. Now she has become the servant girl in the young master's house, which is a step to the top. If Mother Wang dares to provoke anyone, she will immediately suppress her.

Voice: "Miss Qiu He, it's so late, are you going out?"

I glanced at Ye Minwen behind Qiu He, "Big, eldest young master!" It took a long time for Mrs. Wang to say these words as if someone had strangled her neck.

Qiu He whispered to her, "The young master has something to do and needs to go to the outer courtyard. Please open the door for me, mother!"

Mother Wang was just a low-level servant. She had only glanced at Ye Minwen from a distance before. She thought that there was no other such a big boy in the house, so she tentatively called him, "I didn't expect that he was really the eldest young master."

"Hey! Hey!" Mother Wang had a lot of questions in her heart, but now she didn't dare to ask a word. She took out the key and opened the door, and Qiu He had already put two pieces of silver into her hand.

"Mom, don't close the door. We'll come back as soon as we go, and we can go from here!" Mother Wang didn't dare to ask for the money. "The old lady will definitely stay here without blinking an eye, waiting for the young master and the girl to come back after finishing their work."

Pushed back.

"You can take what the young master rewards you with!" Qiu He pushed it to Mother Wang.

Mother Wang took it back this time.

Qiu He breathed a sigh of relief: "Mom, please don't tell others about this!"

Mother Wang nodded like a fool: "I don't care, I won't tell anyone, I won't tell anyone!"

Qiu He was afraid of being discovered during the long night and dreaming, so she pulled Ye Minwen from the corner door to the outer courtyard. She wiped the cold sweat from her head, but luckily everything went well. It was really a blessing from the Bodhisattva.

It was getting late, and the outer courtyard was quiet. Seeing that no one was around, Qiu He was completely relieved.

She had spent some time in the warehouse in the outer courtyard and knew the terrain of the outer courtyard. It was not far from here to the small courtyard where the wolves were kept. She walked there in a while.

Qiu He took Ye Minwen's hand and told him to be careful where he stepped while walking toward the small courtyard. Finally, he arrived at the courtyard where Ye Yichen had brought Yu Lan. The guard at the door didn't know where he was.

Qiu He knelt down and said to Ye Minwen: "Young master! This is it. Let's take a quick look and go back right away, okay! It's getting late. If we stay out for too long and are discovered by the princess, our slaves will have to shed their skin even if they don't die.

of."

Ye Minwen was so excited that he nodded repeatedly.

Qiu He was in front and Ye Minwen was behind. They entered the yard one after the other. Qiu He heard that the wolf was kept in a cage, but she was still a little scared.

Entering the yard, I saw lights on in the side room of the small yard. There were shouting and shouting sounds inside, as if they were gambling. Through the starlight and lights, I saw four iron cages, and in three of them, there was a white cage lying on each side.

Black and tan wolf. There is a cage but it is empty.

Ye Minwen was very excited when he saw several wolves in the cage. He pulled Qiu He's lapel and wanted to talk to her. Qiu He saw an empty cage and felt something was wrong. She couldn't help but look around.

At this time, a black shadow with a vicious wind suddenly jumped out from the corner. The wolf that ran out of the cage silently pounced towards Ye Minwen.

Wolves are very cruel and cunning creatures. When hunting, they will not make sounds to scare their prey.

Qiu He and Ye Minwen stood together, and it instinctively chose Ye Minwen, who looked weaker. Qiu He could see the red eyes and sharp fangs clearly, and it reminded him of many legends about wolves.

Qiu He was scared to death.

"Young Master, be careful!" Qiu He screamed.

Ye Minwen turned around and met a pair of green eyes. Qiu He had only one thought at that moment. If Ye Minwen was killed by a wolf here today, their whole family would have to be buried with him. She had a father and a mother.

, and one older brother, one younger brother and one younger sister.

It was too late to regret bringing Ye Minwen to such a dangerous situation, and she didn't know where she got the courage. She stretched out her hand to push Ye Minwen, took a step forward, and blocked Ye Minwen behind her.

The prairie wolf had excellent jumping ability and rich hunting experience. He threw Qiu He to the ground in one move and bit Qiu He's neck in one bite. The sharp fangs penetrated deeply into the throat, and the blood was like

It gurgled out like spring water.

Qiu He hugged the wolf's body with all her strength: "Young Master, quickly...run away..." her voice was already muffled.

In such a bloody scene, Ye Minwen was still a child after all, and he was so frightened that he screamed loudly.

The guard in the ear room heard the sound, put down his gambling equipment and rushed out.

There were four guards who rushed out. They had all fought with Ye Yichen. They were stunned when they saw this scene. One of them followed Ye Yichen to Fayuan Temple last time and met Ye Minwen. He was frightened at that time.

Jump: "That's the young master, go and save people!"

The other three were shocked when they heard this. Ye Yichen only had one son. If he was allowed to die here, Ye Yichen would have to chop a few of them alive. Who dared to neglect, he immediately picked up the boy and rushed forward.

At this time, Qiu He had already expired. The prairie wolf let go of Qiu He and rushed toward Ye Minwen. The guard at the front could see clearly, and he became anxious and threw the sword in his hand.

He threw himself on the ground, and he didn't know whether it was his good luck or whether Ye Minwen was not destined to die, but by chance, the sword happened to be deeply pierced in the wolf's lower back.

The wolf has a "copper head, an iron tail, and a tofu waist." Its weak point is the waist. The wolf's vital parts were hit by this blow, and it let out a "whimpering" sound. Before it died, it bit Ye Minwen's leg.

Four guards rushed forward and took the lead to pick up Ye Minwen. Ye Minwen was frightened and fainted. They checked his breathing and breathed out, "The eldest young master is not dead, he is still alive." In addition.

Three people gathered around, "Check quickly and see where you are injured?"

After a quick inspection, they saw that he was only bleeding on his legs and the rest of his body was fine. Everyone felt relieved. Only then did one of the guards lean over to check Qiu He's condition.

"Already dead!" The guard wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "This beast is so ferocious that he bit off this maid's throat!" Several people were having a cold war for no reason.

Maid, but Ye Minwen...

Everyone looked at the leading guard: "What should we do?"

Ye Yichen found out about this, and no one had any luck. But no one dared to hide such a big thing. The head guard said: "I didn't tell you anything, go and talk to Manager Ma immediately!"

Everyone was secretly wondering, OK, how did the wolf escape from the cage?

The leader of the guards quickly sent someone to report to Ma Fu.

Main courtyard.

Yulan had already fallen asleep. Ye Yichen was still reading papers outside. There was a noise outside, and Xiaoyu, who was on duty at night, came in in a panic and reported, "Your Majesty, General Manager Mada wants to see you!"

So late? Coming in person again?

Ye Yichen put down the paper in his hand, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart. The rain in the room had already woken up, and a lazy voice came out: "Your Majesty, what happened?"

"It's okay! You sleep in your bed, I'll take care of everything!" Yulan felt slightly reassured when she saw his calm expression, then lay back down again.

Ye Yichen came out of the inner room and met Ma Fu in the small flower hall. He frowned: "What's going on? What happened in the middle of the night?"

Ma Fu wiped the sweat from his forehead as he ran away: "Your Majesty, the eldest young master, the eldest young master, was bitten by a wolf!"

Ye Yichen suddenly stood up: "What's going on? Is it serious?"

"The injury is not serious, but... he may have been frightened and has been unconscious!"

Ye Yichen's face was livid and he didn't even bother to change his clothes. "Go and have a look!" he raised his feet and walked out of the room.

Yulan inside felt panicky for no reason. When she heard that the noise outside had stopped, she tried to shout: "Your Majesty!"

Xiaoyu lifted the curtain and came in, saying in a low voice: "Your Majesty has followed Manager Ma to the front yard!"

He left without having time to say anything to himself. It was obvious that something big had happened.

Yulan calmed down and asked Xiaoyu: "Do you know what happened?"

Xiaoyu's face changed: "You are a twin now. I told you not to be anxious!"

Yulan took a deep breath: "Just tell me, I'm not in a hurry!"

Xiaoyu whispered: "Something happened to the eldest young master!" She didn't dare to say it outright, so she asked Yulan to make mental preparations first. Yulan was really surprised: "What happened to the eldest young master?"

"The eldest young master went to the outer courtyard and said he was bitten by a wolf!"

Yulan's head buzzed: "How is that possible? Isn't he in the east wing?"

Xiaoyu said: "It was General Manager Ma who came to report it in person, so it should be... unmistakable!"

Where could Yulan lie down, she turned over and sat up: "How are you? Where is the young master now? Put on your clothes and shoes quickly, I want to see the young master!"
