Chapter 470
Hearing the voice outside, Cui Quan and his son were startled, and then recalled what they said just now, and felt relieved.

Cui Quan went out and saw Bai Qi still standing outside the door, so he asked, "Who is eavesdropping?"

"Reporting to my lord, that man's agility is swift, and my subordinates didn't see it clearly, but don't worry, Bai Xinyuan has already led someone to chase him." Bai Qi replied respectfully.

Cui Quan asked again: "Is there only one eavesdropper?"

"Yes."

If there is only one person, then Bai Xinyuan and those guards are enough to deal with this person.

Cui Quan felt at ease, and told Bai Qi: "Si Fang's defense is still too weak, go pick some elites, defend Si Fang immediately, and report to me if there is any disturbance.

"Without my order, no one is allowed to enter the fourth room, not even the old lady."

When he said the last sentence, Cui Quan glanced meaningfully at his son beside him.

Cui Yonglin can naturally feel his father's deep meaning, which is not only protecting him, but also warning him.

With more guards in the fourth room, Luo Wu's actions will be hindered, and so will he.

Of course, whether Luo Wu can come back is not certain.

Cui Yonglin lowered his eyes, thanked his father, and then excused his wife for being frightened.

Seeing his son's disappearing back, Cui Quan ordered Bai Qi again: "Pass down the order and strictly guard against it. Luo Wu is not allowed to step into the Duke Yasukuni's mansion, but his life is not allowed."

"Yes." Bai Qi took the order and left.

Cui Quan was about to leave, but seeing Sifang's familiar scenery, he stayed again.

At this time, Cui Hengyue was escaping from the pursuit of Bai Xinyuan and other guards. She covered her face and wore a shirt of the same color as the tiles, and fled quickly, trying to run to a place where she could hide.

"There are assassins—"

Seeing the dark shadow in front of him dodging around, unable to catch up with him, Bai Xinyuan yelled at the top of his voice.

In an instant, the surrounding guards rushed over here.

Cui Hengyue secretly thought that something was wrong, listened carefully, the movement was unusual, probably alarmed the hidden guards in the mansion.

Looks like she can't escape this time
When he was depressed, a group of people came in front, and the leader was Mrs. Cui.

Cui Hengyue couldn't care less, and rushed towards the crowd.

"who?"

Seeing a man in black rushing over aggressively, Wu Tong and the others rushed to protect Mrs. Cui as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

"Stop, don't come over, you."

Cui Hengyue pulled down the scarf: "Auntie, it's me."

"Yuan Niang?"

Everyone was surprised and took off their guard.

Indus reacted, his eyes widened: "Yuan Niang, you are an assassin with this outfit?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Mrs. Cui scolded, quickly pulled Cui Hengyue behind her, and ordered Wutong: "Give your clothes to Yuan Niang."

Then, she quickly glanced around, and then pointed to a big tree not far away: "Go there and change."

Cui Hengyue was stunned.

The surrounding area could not only be shaded by the big tree, the rockery closest to them could also be shaded, but the lady pointed to the big tree a little farther away.

Why is this?

Before he had time to think, Cui Hengyue was dragged away by Wutong.

Mrs. Cui said to the people around her: "Listen to me, Yuan Niang has been with me all this time, she hasn't gone anywhere.

"If anyone chews her tongue, I will make her speechless forever."

Everyone's expressions were terrified, and they responded respectfully: "I will definitely keep my mouth shut, Da Furen, please rest assured."

Behind the big tree, Cui Hengyue was very moved when she heard it, and she quickly took off her coat.

At the same time, Wu Tong unbuttoned his clothes, and when he was about to take them off, he saw Cui Hengyue turned his coat over and put it on, he was stunned.

It turned out that the black clothes turned over were Yuanniang's usual clothes, and she couldn't see it at all when she wore them.

"Ma'am—"

Bai Xinyuan chased into the garden, saw Mrs. Cui, and hurriedly saluted: "The assassin entered the mansion, did it disturb you?"

Mrs. Cui first showed a surprised expression: "The assassin entered the mansion? When did it happen? Where is the assassin?"

Hearing these questions, Bai Xinyuan understood that the lady didn't know anything, so he simply explained: "I don't know when the assassin sneaked in, but he just ran in this direction.

"Since Da Furen didn't see it, this subordinate will leave first."

After saying that, Bai Xinyuan ordered the guards around him: "Search everything carefully for me, don't let go of any place."

While ordering, he started searching.

Bai Xinyuan's eyes were fixed on the big tree beside him, and when he was about to go to check it, a girl in a lotus color dress suddenly came out from behind the tree.

She held up the silk handkerchief in her hand, and smiled coquettishly: "Auntie, I found your handkerchief."

Seeing Bai Xinyuan, she was stunned for a moment, then regained her dignified appearance, and walked over slowly: "I heard that the guard Bai has been staying in the fourth room, why did he come out? He brought so many people with him?"

Bai Xinyuan looked at Wutong behind her, and then stared at her again: "Has Yuan Niang been here all this time?"

"No."

Mrs. Cui suddenly said: "After breakfast, I invited Yuan Niang to accompany me to digest, and came here after walking.

"I accidentally dropped the veil just now, so I asked Yuan Niang to help me find it, but I didn't expect the veil to fall behind a tree."

After saying that, he took the handkerchief from Cui Hengyue's hand, and said to Bai Xinyuan calmly: "Since there are assassins in the mansion, this place must not be safe. Please trouble the Bai guards to search carefully, so that the assassin can escape."

Then he said to Cui Hengyue: "Assassins have entered the mansion, it's not safe for you to be alone in Jinglan Garden, you'd better follow me to the big room."

Cui Hengyue is the only master in Jinglan Court, and the others are maids and wives, so it is really not safe.

Bai Xinyuan had no doubts, and asked the guards who came later to protect Mrs. Cui and Cui Hengyue to go to the big room.

"Eldest sister—"

Cui Erniang was very happy to see Cui Hengyue, and she was pushed away by Mrs. Cui just as she was about to pounce on her.

"I have something to say to Yuan Niang, you go back to your room first."

After Madam Cui finished speaking, she dragged Cui Hengyue into her room.

Wutong stood in front of the door and said to Cui Erniang, "Erniang, please go back."

With a "snap", the door closed, and Erniang Cui could no longer see the scene in the room. She pulled Wutong aside and asked in a low voice: "What is A Niang going to tell Eldest Sister, she is very mysterious."

Wutong looked terrified: "I don't know, I don't dare to inquire about the master's affairs."

Cui Erniang didn't believe her words, so she gave a "tss" and said, "You and Xiuyun are my aunt's confidantes, what else do you not know about Dafang?"

"I really don't know, please don't embarrass me." Wutong resumed her usual tone, looking at her with pleading eyes.

Seeing that Wutong refused to say anything, Cui Erniang left with a face full of frustration.

However, she didn't give up, she made a detour to go to eavesdrop under the window, but was caught by Xiuyun.

"Ah, let me go. Xiuyun, you are bold, let me go."

Cui Erniang yelled all the way and was dragged out of the yard by Xiuyun.
