Chapter 198 Guilt
Although they didn't know whether A Ji was an enemy or a friend, he did send them useful news. They should be grateful and shouldn't be so aggressive.
And many friends are better than many enemies.
After Qin Sanlang heard what Mr. Qin said, he didn't mention it again.
Aji knew that he had let him go for the time being, so he felt relieved and said to Mr. Qin: "General He, Aji's words have been brought here, and he will be back soon. Please be careful."
Finally, he promised Qin Erlang: "If Ah Ji gets news about your uncle, he will send someone to inform you. As for the old friend of your two families, there is a traitor. If he meets your uncle, Ah Ji will also tell you." Tell them this and let them be careful."
After saying that, he turned around and left the main room and walked towards the yard.
"Wait a minute." Qin Sanlang called him from behind and asked, "Does Fifth Master Lei know these things?"
A Ji shook his head: "They didn't know anything about it, it was all done by A Ji alone."
The fifth uncle had doubts, but he did not go to the Duke's Mansion or the Marquis' Mansion, and he had already spoken for them, dispelling his doubts.
Qin Sanlang and the others felt relieved after hearing this.
Qin Erlang hesitated for a long time and finally asked: "Did the third lady enter the palace voluntarily, or was she forced to enter the palace by the British government?"
Although he and Meng Shuyu were not married, they met several times after they got engaged.
So he wanted to know, did Meng Shuyu enter the palace voluntarily, or was she forced to do so?
If it was the latter, then he didn't blame her.
Ah Ji asked: "Is this question meaningful?"
She has already entered the palace and become the emperor's woman, so it is meaningless to ask such questions.
After Aji finished speaking, he stepped away.
"Grandpa, I'll see him off." Qin Sanlang followed A Ji out, keeping the dagger in his hand.
The night was dark and quiet, except for the croaking of frogs from all around.
Ah Ji gathered his clothes, carried a sack on his back, and followed the path. He soon left Dafeng Village and came to the woods where he had been hiding.
Qin Sanlang has been following him.
After entering the woods, Ah Ji was the first to speak: "Little Marquis, is there anything else you want to say? Please tell me, Ah Ji has to go on his way."
He walked here, and no matter how fast he walked, it would still take him an hour and a half to get back to Shangjia Village.
Qin Sanlang said: "If the news you told is false, if you dare to do harm to Grandpa San and the others, I will kill you even if I chase you to the ends of the world!"
Ah Ji smiled: "Young man, don't be so violent. After all, Ning is more than ten years older than you, so he can be regarded as your uncle."
Qin Sanlang didn't answer, his deep eyes were like sharp blades, staring at A Ji, killing A Ji's smile.
Aji could only guarantee: "Ning will not harm you, nor will he harm those families, and all the news he said is true."
When Qin Sanlang heard this, he only said: "Empty promises are useless, it only depends on what you do in the future."
After saying that, he turned around and left, heading towards Dafeng Village.
Aji looked at Qin Sanlang's back and thought of the rumors about the youngest son of the Hou family. He really couldn't believe it.
What he says about being gentle and polite, what he says about cheerful Akagi, are all lies. The real him is like a lone wolf lying next to many ferocious beasts. He is not very eye-catching among the ferocious beasts, but at the critical moment, he can kill you. one strike.
Fortunately, he knew this before anyone else.
However, he thought that the young prince's true nature would be revealed after ten years, but he did not expect that it would be exposed to him so early.
Ah Ji stayed in the woods for a while, then emerged from the woods and left quickly.
This forest is not far from Dafeng Village. Qin Sanlang's footsteps are fast, and he returns home in only a quarter of an hour.
The house was dark, the lights had been turned off. The lamps were still lit in the middle of the night, which was too out of the ordinary in a rural area where people were so poor that they couldn't bear to waste gas.
Mr. Qin and Erlang Qin didn't rest. They sat in the main room waiting for him. When he saw him coming back, Mr. Qin asked, "Is he gone?"
"He left. I watched him leave." After Qin Sanlang came out of the woods, he did not return to the village immediately. Instead, he hid in the grass not far away. He only returned to the village after seeing Ning Ji leave.
"Second brother, there is a traitor in the old tribe of our two families. Do you still want to leave here and go find those so-called uncles?"
Qin Erlang was filled with grief and anger. The news he got tonight was a huge blow to him. First, his fiancée entered the palace and became the emperor's woman, and then the uncle in the family turned out to be a traitor.
Is it really true that everyone is pushing against the wall?
Who else can he trust in this world?
Mr. Qin knew that Qin Erlang had been hit hard and comforted him: "Erlang, we are still here."
Friendships with old ministries are inherently related to interests, and they are the only ones who can really develop feelings for each other.
Qin Erlang didn't say anything, but he was grateful to Mr. Qin in his heart, but: "I want to go to the military headquarters."
Mr. Qin frowned: "Are you really going?"
Plop.
In the darkness, Qin Erlang knelt on the ground and begged Mr. Qin: "I must go. If I don't go, I will die trapped here!"
There were still people in their family alive, so he wanted to go to the military headquarters and use the military headquarters to find out information.
If he does well, he can still rely on the military headquarters to return to the military camp.
As long as he enters the military camp, he will be able to find out which family betrayed them, and then contact those loyal old troops. In this way, there is hope for revenge.
Mr. Qin was helpless. He knew that Erlang's thoughts could no longer be suppressed. If he was not allowed to go, there would be trouble in the future.
"Go ahead." Mr. Qin finally relented: "Just remember that you are not alone. Anything you do affects the lives of more than thirty people. Erlang, you have to be conscientious. We took advantage of those companies. We must remember their kindness and not destroy their families."
Qin Erlang's heart has long been covered with hatred. He doesn't care about Third Grandpa and the others at all, but when Mr. Qin begged him, he could only agree: "Okay."
Qin Sanlang remained silent. When Mr. Qin and the others had finished talking and were going to rest, he said, "I'll go with my second brother."
Qin Erlang frowned: "You want to spy on me?"
Qin Sanlang smiled in the direction of Qin Erlang in the darkness: "Given the impulsive and angry temper of the second brother, shouldn't I follow him to monitor him?"
"Three dozen people died, but it was still the benefactor who helped us. I don't want the three of us to have committed too many sins."
He is different from Erlang. Erlang doesn't like those families and hates the countryside, but he likes it very much. Although those families were poor and even had different surnames, they were able to work together in times of crisis, weather the famine, and live better and better lives.
He likes life in the country and the atmosphere of their family.
There are also small fish...
Xiaoyu always thought that on the night when the villains killed the victims, he was the one who saved her, so that no one died in her hands and she could continue to be clean.
But Xiaoyu didn't know that it was the smash he made when he rushed out that helped her deal with the evil man, but also dragged the whole family into the quagmire.
He felt guilty, so he always wanted to be nice to her... It seemed that being nice to her would make him feel less guilty.
