25. Knowing people but not faces

Su Che did not go to Miaoyinfang to call Su Qing because there was obviously something wrong with Miaoyinfang at this time.

He ran to the street and mixed into the pedestrians. While running, he was looking for the traces of the servants of the Su Mansion who were coming with him.

"Where did you go?" Su Che was anxious, and stomped his feet and simply ran to the Su Mansion.

After leaving Yanliu Lane, the long street became empty, and there were few pedestrians in the night.

Su Che adjusted his breathing method while running, not feeling tired yet, but the quiet street made him extremely alert and his mind was extremely tense.

Da da da da da,

Su Che's ears stood up, and it was the sound of horse's hooves stepping on the ground.

"Is it the people from Miaoyinfang chasing me?" He thought, but his steps were faster, and he listened at the same time.

He heard the clanging sound of horse hooves and wheels on the green bricks on the long street, and he saw a bright black carriage.

It turned out that it was not the pursuer behind, he thought.

The carriage came from the long street opposite, and the driver was carrying a lantern in his hand, casting a hazy orange light.

Su Che lowered his head and planned to leave.

"Master Su?"

When he was about to pass by the carriage, the driver suddenly shouted.

Su Che's pace slowed down, looked over and recognized that this was the gatekeeper of Yan's mansion. He was happy in his eyes. Isn't it the one in the carriage?

"Is it Ache?"

The carriage stopped, the curtain was lifted, and someone looked back.

After hearing this gentle and familiar voice, Su Che did not doubt anymore and hurried over, "Uncle Yan!"

The person on the carriage was Yan Cong. He was wearing a dark blue brocade robe and had a gentle face, but he had some doubts in his eyes.

"In a hurry, where are you going?" he asked, "Why are you alone?"

Su Che slapped his forehead and then looked at the way he came in panic.

"Someone chases you?" Yan Cong frowned.

"Miaoyinfang." Su Che's breathing was slightly short of breath. "Miaoyinfang was related to the incident at Daxing Temple a few days ago. The people who were abducted by the Mo family may be locked up there."

"It's like this?" Yan Cong was shocked, "Did you see it?"

"I accidentally entered the side hospital and heard their plan to send people to the outer city tonight. Daqiang broke it off for me before I ran out." Su Che said hurriedly.

Yan Cong said: "Get on the bus!"

Su Che hurriedly got in.

The curtain fell and the carriage accelerated.

Yan Cong asked, "Why are you thinking about going to Miaoyinfang?"

"My brother must take me there." Su Che smiled bitterly.

When Yan Cong heard that it was Su Qing, he nodded, "So that's it, what about him?"

"Maybe in some girl's boudoir." Su Che smiled. With Yan Cong here, he finally felt relieved and his words became much more relaxed.

"You didn't bring a few more people?" Yan Cong said slowly.

"My brother gave them money and asked them to go elsewhere to play." Su Che said: "Or wouldn't it be that Daqiang would be left alone to cut off the rear. I don't know how he is now."

"He is a good armor-breaking player, so there should be no trouble." Yan Cong said.

"Hope." Su Che said worriedly.

"You said you heard their plan tonight?" Yan Cong asked.

Su Che said: "Yes, they are going to leave the West Gate at midnight, and someone in the Bingma Situation was bribed."

After hearing this, Yan Cong's eyes flashed and his tone was inexplicably said: "It seems that their power is very strong."

Su Che nodded.

The carriage was a little bumpy, but the speed was not slow. He raised the curtain and looked out, stunned.

"Which path is this?" he wondered: "Aren't you going to find my dad?"

The carriage was a little dark. He couldn't see Yan Cong's eyes clearly, but just heard him say quietly: "Aren't you worried about Daqiang?"

Su Che was stunned and turned his head to look over.

Yan Cong's eyes were deep, as silent as an abyss, looking at him quietly.

...

"Lao Liu, I really didn't think it would be you."

Su Daqiang had several fine blades on his body, and blood soaked his clothes, but this was just a skin trauma. The worst thing was that his left arm was twisted and drooping.

The masked man in front of him slowly took off his face, and what was exposed underneath was Su Rilian's flattering and philanthropic face.

His face was slightly pale. He covered his chest and coughed, wiping away the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"I'm worthy of being a personal guard who has followed Su Dingyuan, or I'm underestimating you." Yan Liu was a little gasping when she spoke, obviously also suffered a considerable internal injury.

"Why?" Su Daqiang was puzzled, "What are the benefits of doing this?"

Yan Liu just looked at him lightly, but the helper beside him surrounded him with swords.

"Brother Daqiang, I don't want to say it, but you are waiting on the underworld road, and I will share it with you when I pass by in the future."

Yan Liu coughed and stepped back.

Even if he is a good external body refiner who can break the armor, after he destroyed the meridians with the snake hand, the internal qi cannot move smoothly, and this body alone cannot block the edge of the sword.

Su Daqiang held up half of the wooden stick at hand and spit out blood foam.

...

"So, the one who intercepted my elder brother at dusk that day was yours. He wanted to blame the Mo family, but he didn't expect that he was destroyed by the Liusanmen Louqian. My father also knew that the matter was discovered. The next day at Daxing Temple, you knew that the Louqian would go with the Mo family to investigate, so he asked Yan Liu to kill him in the chaos.

But you didn’t expect that Yushu would accidentally find the whereabouts of Mo Hen and others, so you banned his feet. Moreover, it was the time when the Buddhist rituals were known to all sects in the world that this matter was a big deal, so you were more careful.”

On the carriage, Su Che, who had been touched by acupuncture, could not move, said: "Niu Ben is the descendant of the martial arts honor. His father, General Xuanwei, Niu Jingzhong, is Shangguan of the twenty-one generals of the Inner City Military and Ma Si. I am afraid that he will deliberately find fault, and the conflict with Yushu is also arranged by you."

Yan Cong looked at the person in front of him and smiled slightly, "Yes, Yushu is impulsive, but he has always been very sensible. I am used to indulging in daily life, but I didn't expect him to break through Daxing Temple. I had to let him make mistakes and encircle him. Although Honghu Academy is full of rich children, if their fathers end up, Su Dingyuan can be exhausted and facilitate my next step."

"But I didn't expect that you would even knock it out by you." Yan Cong shook his head, and was a little helpless, "This is probably God's will. Since he participated, he could no longer avoid it."

Su Che pursed his lips, "Take a man should be killed, but as a court official, how can you be cruel to do such a thing?"

Yan Cong looked at him, smiled, and said, "My annual salary is less than 200 taels."

Su Che was silent for a moment and said, "Money is touching. Can even an innocent censor be exempt from the vulgarity?"

"Who is innocent in the officialdom?" Yan Cong said: "Didn't your Su family's wealth also come from killing people to destroy the family?"

"I don't want to kill you."

After a pause, Yan Cong said, "Yan, the two families of Su have been in good terms for generations. I and your father are even more close friends, but you know too much. If you don't die, the wind will be revealed. I will die, Yushu, and more than 200 people from the Yan Mansion."

Su Che swallowed in his throat. It was hard for him to believe that Yan Cong, who had always been kind and elegant, had such a cruel and ruthless face.
