Chapter 439

Qujiang was awakened by this sentence. This time, the situation is really complicated. The best way is to observe the change as Shi Xiaorui said in his letter.

Qu Jiang said: "I went to drink with my friends today. I may not have come back so early. Maybe I will drink later."

A room full of people looked at him and didn't know why he began to talk about himself now.

Qu Jiang motioned to them to get closer, lowered his voice and said, "my friend is from the army and horse company of five cities. He was called away half way through the evening. He was not on duty today. The people who came to call him said that no matter whether he was on duty or not, everyone should be here tonight. Later, because I was present, the people who came to call him didn't say anything. Our table of wine broke up on the spot at night. On my way back, I saw a lot of people on the street in a hurry, looking at not only the soldiers and horses of five cities. "

Mo Ju's face suddenly turned white. She had a psychological shadow for this kind of similar situation. She asked in a trembling voice: "is it going to be a mess in Beijing?"

Qu Jiang said: "no matter what, this stall should not show any abnormality. Try to be the same as usual. Now in the evening, we will close the gate as if we don't know anything and nothing has happened."

"Five City Army and horse division, there may be other troops gathering in addition, this thing is certainly not small, I doubt that Shi Xiaorui's being robbed has something to do with this matter, otherwise she won't send a letter back in advance, she said it will take a few days to come back, just afraid that something big will happen in Beijing in the next few days."

"In any case, let's not take action tonight. Let's see what happens in Beijing."

A few people who have experienced such a battle, although worried, there is no better way. They are soon convinced by Qu Jiang to close the doors and windows at home, nervously waiting for the next day.

Because there was something in her heart, no one could sleep soundly. In the middle of the night, she could hear the sound of a large number of people passing through the street from time to time. At night, Mo Ju just huddled with Xia Ying and Su Wan. Hearing the sound, she wrapped herself in the quilt and held her two sisters tightly in her arms.

Lu Xilan is probably the only one in the family who has a good sleep. Yu Qingzhan tells her that Shi Xiaorui has gone out to see a doctor for others. The little girl immediately believes that she doesn't make a fuss about important people and soon sleeps in her arms.

Yu Qingzhan looks at her carefree sleep with a healthy red face, gently patting her back.

Lu Xilan is sleeping more soundly.

Qu Jiang had been listening to the movement outside the door with his eyes closed and his body on his side. Without Lu Shao, the safety problem of the family fell on his head, and he could not be negligent at all.

However, the location of the medical center is far away from the west city where the dignitaries live. It is basically the east city in the other direction, so the hasty steps outside did not stop, and soon disappeared from the streets of the east city.

The next day, Qujiang stops Shanxia from opening the door of the hospital. He opens a small crack in the door and goes out quietly, telling Shanxia not to open the door until he comes back.

He wanted to go out and inquire about the news. It was obvious that something happened last night, but the focus was not on the east city. Was it in the west city?

Today, there is a lot of depression in the streets of the east city. Although people may not know any definite news, people who have lived in the capital for a long time have some subtle intuition about the changes in the atmosphere of the capital. What's more, the sound of footsteps last night is not hidden at all. Many people have noticed this unusual movement.

Qujiang slowly walked half the street, only a few shops opened, most of the other shops were closed tightly.

Qujiang looked back and forth, thinking that there was nothing to find out about the street, hesitated for a while, and turned to the west city.

As a result, the west city seems to be more depressed than the east city.

Most of the houses in Xicheng are the residences of the officials, and there are few shops. Along the way, not only are there no shops open, but the houses are quiet, the doors are closed, and there is no sound. It seems that people are empty overnight.

Occasionally, there are a few pedestrians on the road. They all look like they are walking in a hurry with their heads down. Qu Jiang finds that he looks too conspicuous when he looks around. He even learns from them and walks with their heads down, but the speed is not so fast. He pays attention to the movement around him with his eyes.

Qujiang's trip was not entirely fruitless. He avoided the vicinity of the Imperial Palace and went around the other parts of the West City in a hurry. He found blood stains in front of the doors of several mansions, and there were obvious and fresh footprints on the doors of several mansions, which seemed to have been broken in last night.

Qujiang heart a Lin, dare not stay for a long time, immediately on the way back.

When I returned to Dongcheng, I found that there were more people in the market, and there were still many vegetable and fruit vendors. With these vendors, there were more people shopping. After all, even if the sky fell, people still had to eat every day. However, people did not get together to chat and laugh as usual. Most of them just bought things and left. The atmosphere was much more serious than before.

When Qujiang returned to the hospital, everyone gathered together and waited anxiously for his news.

Lu Ming didn't want to go to school. He wanted to take a leave from school until Shi Xiaorui came home. Yu Qingzhan just persuades him to go to school. He doesn't have any help at home, so it's better to go to school honestly.

Qu Jiang knocks on the door twice outside, and is immediately heard by Xin Meng, who is on the tip of his ear. He trots all the way to open the door.

When the door was only half opened, Qu Jiang quickly came in and immediately closed it again.

Yu Qingzhan didn't wait for Qujiang to breathe. He asked eagerly, "how about it?"

Qu Jiang shook his head: "the atmosphere in the capital is not quite right. I think many people in the west city seem to have something wrong. Let's observe again and don't act rashly for the time being."

Yu Qingzhan and others are not reconciled, but on the one hand, they are reminded by Shi Xiaorui's letter, and on the other hand, Qujiang tends to look at the wind direction again, so they can only wait for the opportunity behind closed doors.

While Shi Xiaorui stayed here with Lu Xun and Shen Shen, she was not affected by the outside world at all. She ate and drank as usual, and still looked like a quiet time.

Because Shen Shen told her that the letter had been sent out smoothly, Shi Xiaorui had a good sleep that day. The next day, when she woke up according to her usual biological clock, Qingfeng and Mingyue woke up early. She stayed outside quietly. Hearing the news of Shi Xiaorui's getting up, she came in to help her dress.

Shi Xiaorui was a little embarrassed, but the clothes she took off from bed last night were a little far away from the bed.
