Protagonist:
Yan Qianqian
Although this Cishi Fu was not large in scale, the two houses around it were extraordinary.
From the outside, these two houses seemed unremarkable, but in reality their interiors were connected, forming a huge space. The total area of these three houses was actually larger than An Wang Fu!
Yan Wang sighed inwardly; there must be a huge secret hidden here.
Watching the maids and servants coming and going inside the fu, and hearing their occasional conversations, Yan Wang gradually learned some things. It turned out that Dan Jiajie was currently in the Shufang discussing important matters with someone.
Yan Wang quickly determined the location of the Shufang, then moved like a ghost through the small paths and flower bushes inside the fu, arriving before the Shufang in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, there happened to be a large tree at the entrance of the Shufang, whose dense branches and leaves provided him with an excellent hiding place.
He climbed the tree trunk lightly like an agile monkey, hiding his body under the cover of the leaves. Even so, he did not dare to be the slightest bit careless, listening with full concentration to the movements inside the Shufang.
However, due to the distance, the conversation inside the Shufang was very faint, and Yan Wang needed to focus all his energy to barely hear clearly.
However, relying on his extraordinary hearing, although he could not hear every word clearly, he could still understand the general meaning.
What surprised Yan Wang even more was that Dan Jiajie seemed very confident about his own concealment, to the extent that no Anqi were arranged near the Shufang. This undoubtedly gave Yan Wang an excellent opportunity.
Just as he was listening with full concentration, he suddenly heard a sentence from inside the Shufang: "You say Li Wang has already received the news?"
"Yes."
"Then has Li Wang Your Highness taken any action?"
"I was sent this time to tell you this."
"Adult, please speak."
Hearing the conversation inside, Yan Wang suddenly understood; it turned out that this Dan Jiajie was the person contacting Nan Liang! However, Yan Wang also wanted to know what their plan was, so he suppressed his inner excitement and listened quietly.
However, the person inside seemed even more cautious, and suddenly there was no sound. Yan Wang waited for a while, but still heard nothing. Just as he was about to give up, a black shadow ran quickly toward this side from not far away like a ghost.
Seeing this, Yan Wang immediately held his breath, not daring to make a sound, fearing discovery. The black shadow moved extremely fast, arriving at the entrance in the blink of an eye. Yan Wang looked closely; it turned out to be an Anqi.
The Anqi had a panicked expression, ran hurriedly to the entrance, raised his hand and knocked hard on the door, while shouting: "Adult, something has happened!"
Dan Jiajie heard the sound inside the house, his heart tightened suddenly, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart. He calmed himself and said in a forced calm voice: "Come in."
The Anqi pushed open the door and entered the house. Because he was too hurried, he did not notice that Yan Wang was hiding in the tree. Although Yan Wang could not hear what they were saying, from the Anqi's anxious tone and Dan Jiajie's solemn expression, he could guess that something serious had definitely happened.
Sure enough, although the Anqi's voice was not loud, Yan Wang heard it clearly: "Adult, it's not good! Lin Shu has already confessed everything; the Yan Family Army is already on the way to Fu Zhou!"
"I knew he was a spineless coward, a piece of trash!" he cursed with a look of disdain, "Fortunately, he doesn't know much."
Before his words fell, he no longer dragged his feet, and decisively instructed: "Hurry to notify the Furen and the young master and young miss; give them half an incense stick's time to pack up their things, take only important items, and leave everything else behind; prepare to set out immediately!"
The Anqi who received the order did not dare to delay in the slightest, and left in response, quickly going to convey the order.
The person talking with Dan Jiajie also knew they could not stay here long, and hurriedly said: "Then I will go first." After saying this, he did not even wait for Dan Jiajie to reply, but impatiently began to use qinggong, preparing to escape this place of trouble.
However, just as his qinggong had just leapt up, just as he flew out of the Cishi Fu, suddenly, a fierce palm wind like lightning attacked.
With a "bang" muffled sound, he was struck hard by this palm without any defense, instantly lost consciousness, and fell straight to the ground like a kite with a broken string.
The one who struck was Yan Wang; seeing this person wanted to escape, he did not hesitate to strike and knock him unconscious.
Immediately afterward, he quickly took out a rope he carried with him from his bosom, and skillfully tied that person up tightly.
Then, he carefully pried open that person's eyelids, and only after confirming that he was indeed unconscious did he breathe a slight sigh of relief.
Yan Wang looked around; seeing no one around, he hurriedly hid the tied-up person in a patch of taller grass not far away, and covered him thoroughly with some weeds, so as not to be discovered.
After doing all this, he did not dare to delay in the slightest, turned around and hurried back to the Cishi Fu.
At this time, Dan Jiajie had already walked out of the Shufang, with a small bundle on his back, apparently having already packed his important items.
Yan Wang looked around vigilantly; after confirming no one was there, he quickly stepped forward and without hesitation slapped Dan Jiajie on the back of the head.
Dan Jiajie did not even have time to cry out in surprise; as if all his strength had been drained, he fell down limply.
In the moment before losing consciousness, two words flashed through Dan Jiajie's mind—It's over...
Yan Wang looked at Dan Jiajie lying unconscious on the ground, feeling somewhat helpless in his heart. He had only brought one rope, originally intending to tie up Dan Jiajie and hide him, but now it seemed this plan obviously would not work.
However, Yan Wang soon thought of a method. He felt the sachet on his body; there was still a bottle of Ruan Jin San inside.
This was a poison that made a person's whole body weak; although not fatal, it was enough to make Dan Jiajie unable to move for a short time.
Yan Wang hesitated not at all; he quickly poured Ruan Jin San into Dan Jiajie's mouth, then dragged his body, throwing him into the grass just now like a useless object.
At the same time, Dan Jiajie's wife and children also received the news. However, their reaction was somewhat unexpected. Dan Jiajie's children packed their things unhurriedly, even carefully selecting the clothes and jewelry to take with them.
Dan Jiajie's little daughter was even more excessive; she actually still had the mood to dress herself up, seeming to completely not take her father's words to heart.
Dan Jiajie's wife, on the other hand, looked as if she wanted to take everything in the house, not letting go of even the pots, pans, bowls, and ladles in the kitchen. While packing, she also muttered to herself: "These are all useful things; they cannot be left behind."
Seeing that she had packed for half a day, but Dan Jiajie had not come to urge her, Dan Jiajie's wife immediately felt reassured in her heart. She thought: "It seems they are not that anxious after all; I can just pack slowly."
