As soon as I opened my eyes, I was dressed as a stepmother of two bear children

Chapter 19
Qiu Yeli's moves are fierce and her figure is light, and the bandit is full of banditry. He is a desperate master, and the stalemate between the two sides did not take advantage of it for a while.

"Don't move!"

Suddenly, the door of the ruined temple was kicked open, and a group of men in armor surrounded the ruined temple.

"Wang Qinghu, you robbed the people and committed crimes. I was ordered to take your head. If you don't obey me, you will be arrested!"

The leading man was only [-] years old, with regular facial features, piercing eyes, and an upright spirit.

"Hmph, the government? What a shitty government, I have killed countless people, what kind of government are you afraid of, brothers, let me do it!"

The man with the scar was guarded by his subordinates, he grinned grinningly and shouted loudly.

"kill!"

For a moment, the officers and soldiers and the bandits fought together. Qiu Yeli quietly threw the long knife and retreated to the side, ready to leave, but the door was tightly guarded by the officers and soldiers, and Qiu Yeli was forced to watch a live version of the bandit suppression drama.

The officers and soldiers in the lead were strong and vigorous, and every move seemed to vaguely resemble Gu Jingyao. Thinking of Gu Jingyao, I don’t know if he realized that he was missing, why all this was so coincidental, and whether Li Xiaozhu knew something.
Qiu Yeli thought seriously, and suddenly heard an anxious shout, "Be careful!"

Qiu Yeli turned around, tilted her head subconsciously, and inserted a short blade into the face of the statue. If she was slower, the knife would have been inserted into her face.

Qiu Yeli heaved a sigh of relief, seeing the man wrestling with the man with the scar, he raised his knife and slashed at him pretending to be exaggerated, then cowered aside as if frightened.

Soon, the bandits were outnumbered and completely suppressed. They knelt on the ground with their scarred faces, their shoulders were firmly pressed down by the officers and soldiers, and they cursed angrily.

"Han Xiujin, a person from Kyoto, was ordered to suppress the bandits this time. I don't know who the girl is, why is she here?" Han Xiujin looked at Qiu Yeli without blinking, and was suspicious of her identity.

"I live in Qingping Village. I came out to look for my child. I didn't expect to be kidnapped by this group of thieves. Lord, if there is nothing wrong, the little girl will leave first, otherwise the family will be worried."

Qiu Yeli hid her face and sobbed a few times, pretending to be crying, Han Xiujin sobbed slightly at the corner of her mouth, if he didn't see her confronting her with a long knife, he would have believed that she was just an innocent woman from a good family.

"I'm afraid the little lady can't leave for the time being. We need to go back to the government to cooperate with the investigation." Han Xiujin stopped Qiu Yeli's way and said calmly.

"That's fine." Even though Qiu Yeli was reluctant, she had to compromise, and suddenly thought that Han Xiujin claimed to be from the capital, and according to her observations these days, Gu Jingyao might also have a close relationship with the capital, would the two know each other?

Soon, the group returned to the yamen, and Qiu Yeli saw that Han Xiujin's scrutinizing eyes kept wandering around him, hesitating to speak.

"Master Han, you may wish to speak directly if you have something to say." Qiu Yeli was a little displeased, she was kidnapped for no reason, and it was already unlucky enough to be caught in the yamen for no reason, and she had to go back to grind spice powder!
"According to Wang Qinglong, the leader of the bandit, he was entrusted by someone to kidnap you and pay for your murder." Han Xiujin said lightly, observing the woman's expression while talking, Qiu Yeli just nodded without any surprise.

"That man's name is Liu Zhuangyong, do you know him?" Seeing this, Han Xiujin continued to speak.

"Yes, my brother-in-law." Qiu Yeli said lightly.

Han Xiujin frowned, the woman's indifferent behavior was very suspicious, she was not like an ordinary village woman.

"Master Han, the bandit leader has been arrested, when will I be allowed to go back?" Qiu Yeli was really in a hurry and had no time to entangle with them.

"After interrogating Wang Qinglong." Han Xiujin got up and left after finishing speaking.

Qiu Yeli looked at the court boredly, annoyed in her heart, and blamed Liu Zhuangyong, a beast.

——Gu Family Yard

Gu Jingyao went down the mountain with a hare and a pheasant on his shoulders, but the house was pitch black from a distance.

"Zhu'er? Yue'er?" Gu Jingyao put down his prey, pushed open the door and walked in. Li Xiaozhu was standing on tiptoe trying to light the candle, but he was too small to reach it.

Gu Jingyao took it, looked around and found that only Li Xiaozhu was at home, "Mother and sister didn't come back?"

Li Xiaozhu bit her lower lip, and shook her head truthfully, "My sister has gone, and my mother went to look for it, but she didn't come back."

Hearing this, Gu Jingyao frowned even more. Just as he was about to go out, Li Xiaoyue pushed open the door and walked in, but his face was clearly disturbed.

"Daddy."

Li Xiaoyue lowered her head when Gu Jingyao suddenly appeared, startled, and muttered.

"Where did you go?" Gu Jingyao looked serious, and seeing her out of her mind, she knew something was going to happen.

"I went to look for Sister Qiulian, so I came back late." Li Xiaoyue's mouth was stiff, but her heart was a little flustered. When she came back just now, she clearly saw the ropes and traces of blood scattered on the side of the road. Could it be Qiu Ye? pear?

"Did your mother see you when she went out to look for you?"

"No, no, I came back alone, and I didn't see anyone else." Li Xiaoyue shook her head firmly.

However, Gu Jingyao is not easy to be fooled, and soon came up with something.

Gu Jingyao frowned more and more, and rushed out before he even had time to put on his clothes. Although he knew that Qiu Yeli was good at martial arts, his fists were no match for four hands. He didn't even dare to think what those desperate bandits would do kind of thing.

-

Li Xiaozhu, who sat obediently on the bed, sighed slightly, and gloated, "Sister, you got into trouble this time."

"Hmph! What's the big deal! She doesn't deserve to be our stepmother, don't you like her too!"

Li Xiaoyue suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, looked at her younger sister and said with pride.

"Sister, I advise you to pray that your mother will be fine, how can you ask her to forgive me!" Li Xiaozhu looked at her silly sister and shook her head. She didn't like Qiu Yeli, but the prince and father seemed to be very caring. How could he be so stupid as to offend his only reliance at the moment?

Naturally, Li Xiaoyue didn't understand her sister's twists and turns, and sat beside her nervously, remembering what Liu Zhuangyong said to herself last night, she only hoped that those bandits could really kill Qiu Yeli!Liu Zhuangyong promised himself that he would let her live in Liu's Mansion after the matter was completed, no matter how she used to be a wealthy young lady, she had already had enough of such a simple life.

Outside the village, Gu Jingyao walked around the forest and found the hemp rope net and blood stains left by the bandits.

Gu Jingyao frowned, not daring to think about it any further. If he went directly to Liu's mansion, Liu Zhuangyong would definitely not admit it. The unnecessary verbal disputes would waste time in vain. Now, the most important thing is to find Qiu Yeli.

Thinking of this, Gu Jingyao turned his back to the woods, a loud whistle sounded, and soon a man in black appeared, looking at him respectfully.
