Song Qingshu could not help but feel gloomy. If he had seen something, it would have been fine. But Cheng Yaojia was clearly wearing clothes. She was only lacking a coat.
"It would be good if I could see an undergarment." Song Qingshu felt really unlucky. He did not gain any advantage, but instead got himself into trouble.
Cheng Yaojia originally came with her husband, but yesterday she suddenly felt unwell. Lu Guanying was considerate to his wife, so he let her rest in her room while he went out with the head envoy Lu You to inquire about the situation.
While she was in a daze, she suddenly heard noises coming from outside the door. At first she did not think much of it, but later she heard that it seemed to be the Qing soldiers searching. This was not a small matter. She hastily got up to put on her clothes and just happened to bump into Song Qingshu coming in.
She was a very traditional young lady from a noble family. Normally, in front of guests, even if her hair was a little messy, it would be very inappropriate. Not to mention, she was only wearing pajamas and her clothes were disheveled.
In addition, she had an extremely shy temperament. When she talked to strangers, she would blush. While she was putting on her clothes, a burly man with a full beard suddenly rushed in. Her mind was immediately filled with fear and she subconsciously screamed.
"Don't scream. Put on your clothes first. The others will be here soon." From the corner of his eyes, Song Qingshu glanced at Songgotu and the others who were jogging over and reminded her in a low voice.
Cheng Yaojia was startled. She did not expect him to say that. She unconsciously replied, "Can you turn around?"
Hearing her voice, Song QingShu's entire body trembled. He wondered if this woman's husband's bones would melt from listening to her coquettish voice every day. He couldn't help but laugh and say, "There's nothing on your body that's exposed, so why should I turn around? Of course, if you don't want to change, that's fine. Unless you want more men to see your body immediately. "
Thinking of that terrible scene, Cheng Yaojia shook her head like a rattle drum. At this time, even she could hear the approaching footsteps. How could she care about anything else? She clenched her teeth and blushed as she put on her clothes in front of a strange man.
He had just put on his clothes, when Songgotu arrived with his men. When he saw the woman inside, his countenance immediately changed.
Song Qingshu was the first to speak awkwardly, "Alright, no wonder those monks made excuses when we wanted to come in. So it turns out that this is a den of filth. Men, bring this woman back. I want to interrogate her properly."
Song Qingshu had originally planned to take this opportunity to find out the truth of the Song emissaries and find out Li Kexiu's true intentions. He had never thought of harming these Song emissaries. After all, they were all Han people. If he caused them to fall into the Tatar court's hands, these people's life and death would no longer be under his control. Therefore, he took the first step to control them in his own hands. Based on the relationship between him and Songgotu, naturally it would not be convenient for him to fight over these people.
Songgotu's expression was strange. Right now he could clearly see the appearance of the woman in the room. Her figure was graceful, she stood there timidly, her slender waist was so small that it seemed as if a gust of wind would break her. Especially the delicate and bashful temperament on her face, even he, who was not fond of women, was incessantly moved.
"What interrogation? I am afraid he has taken a fancy to her beauty and wants to seize the opportunity to take her for himself." Songgotu cursed incessantly in his heart. However, from the attire of the woman in front of him, he could tell that she was a Han. Naturally he would not ruin his sworn brother's interest for a Han woman.
"That's very good. Bring her back and interrogate her properly." Songgotu laughed aloud. One after another, all the officials in Yangzhou also agreed.
The people present were all shrewd people, who could not see through Song Qingshu's intention? Originally, if this matter was not handled properly, it would be a disgrace to the country. Other than Songgotu, all the officials present would be out of luck. But now that Song Qingshu was interested in this woman, everything was easy to solve.
Using this woman as a gift to shut his mouth, turning this difficult problem into an elegant matter. Everybody was happy, why not?
As for this woman's innocence, who among the officials present, big or small, would care?
They let Song Qingshu's subordinates tie Cheng Yaojia up.
Cheng Yaojia was about to resist, but suddenly she felt her waist go numb and all the zhenqi in her body disappeared. She could only watch helplessly as she fell into the enemy's hands.
Song Qingshu discreetly withdrew his fingers into his sleeve. The reason he made a move was because he did not want Cheng Yaojia to display her martial art skill. Right now, in the eyes of Songgotu and the others, at most it was just a scandal of a Buddhist temple hiding a woman. Since they had taken her, this matter had already been settled. These officials would not look for trouble and interrogate those monks again.
But if Cheng Yaojia revealed her extraordinary martial art skill, this matter would become a big deal.
Since she knew martial art, it was obvious that she was not a woman from a good family who was imprisoned by the Chanzhi Temple. These officials would certainly realize that there was a conspiracy. Once they thoroughly investigated, the matter of the Southern Song envoy would be exposed. When that time came, the situation would not be easy to control.
A group of people came to the temple to admire the flowers. In the end, they caught a young woman who was as beautiful as a flower and as beautiful as jade. Songgotu knew that this sworn brother of his was anxious to return home, so he suggested that they return to their mansion to rest and let Song Qingshu interrogate the captured prisoner.
The rest of the officials revealed a knowing smile. One by one, they bowed and nodded their heads as they escorted the two people out of the temple.
When they left the courtyard, a middle-aged man tried to rush over from the corner of a distant corridor, but he was firmly held back by the people behind him.
"Guanying, calm down, calm down!"
"Uncle, now that Yaojia has been captured by the Qing army, how do you expect me to calm down?"
These two people were Liu Guanying and Liu You. Although their ages were not too different, according to the genealogy of the six families of Shanyin, Liu You was Liu Guanying's uncle.
The two of them had originally gone to the city to inquire about the other countries' envoys. In the end, they found out that a group of officials had unexpectedly gone to the Chanzhi Temple today. At that time, they felt that something bad was going to happen and immediately rushed back. Unfortunately, they were one step too late.
"Guanying, right now there are so many soldiers outside. If you rush out, you will only be throwing your life away. How will you get Yaojia?" Liu You hastily said.
"Don't tell me that I am just going to watch my wife fall into the hands of the Tatars and do nothing?" When he thought of his wife's beauty and the rumors of the Female Enlightened Master's lecherous nature, Liu Guanying shuddered with fear.
"Of course we can't do nothing. We will split into two groups. One group will contact Li Kexiu and have him come out to rescue her. The other group will gather experts. When the enemy is not on guard at night, we will rush to where they are staying and rescue her," Liu You quickly said.
Only then did Liu Guanying calm down a little. "Uncle is really thoughtful. Alright, we will split into two groups."
Song QingShu and his group left the Chanzhi Temple and saw that Miss Cheng had been 'thoughtfully' sent to his palanquin. He couldn't help but smile. Power was really a good thing. You didn't need to do anything, and there would be people who would take care of everything for you.
Because of today's matter, Wu Zhirong was anxious and fearful. Suddenly, he felt that his future was dim. He was in a daze and unknowingly fell behind the main group.
At this moment, a delicate shout suddenly came from the nearby thicket, "Wu Zhirong, you dog thief. Today, I will take your life to comfort the souls of the Zhuang family in heaven!"
