Everyone was immersed in their own thoughts. It was a quiet night. Even though Qin Yining's voice wasn't loud, it still traveled into the ears of those outside the door.
Lu Heng's heart stirred. He couldn't help but take a step forward until he was almost right next to the yamen's door.
She agreed, she really agreed!
He knew that Qin Yining was someone who knew how to judge the situation. She was kind-hearted and definitely wouldn't be willing to see others lose their lives in order to protect her. He knew that his threat would be effective.
Lu Heng took a few deep breaths and did his best to keep his voice calm to avoid losing face.
"Prince Zhongshun's Consort is truly a smart person. Since that's the case, please come out."
"Wang Fei!"
Ji Yun was extremely worried and grabbed Qin Yining's arm. Jing Zhe and the others also surrounded Qin Yining, clearly intending to stop her.
Lu Weigui and the others felt their faces burn. Seeing a woman step forward because of their momentary cowardice, they felt like they had been slapped in the face.
If the woman could face this kind of situation calmly, why couldn't they? Could it be that they were worse than the woman?
"Wang Fei, you can't go." Lu Weigui strode forward and said vehemently, "How can we push you out at a critical time and use you to exchange for everyone's safety? Even if we live on in shame today, how can we walk outside in the future? Don't tell me that when people talk about us, they will think that we are the kind of people who push you out to take the blame while we hide behind and tremble in fear? "
Some of the bailiffs and soap operatives nodded. It could be seen that in this dilemma, some men chose to lose face and decided to go all out. But there were also people who remained silent. They clearly didn't agree with Lu Weigui's actions.
Qin Yining saw all of this and had her own thoughts.
If she didn't go out, it was only a matter of time before this group of people in the yamen fought amongst themselves. At that time, their own people wouldn't be able to keep this place safe. At that time, if Lu Heng forced his way in, many people would lose their lives. It would be better to arrange everything properly and follow Lu Heng.
Qin Yining knew how Lu Heng felt about her, so she was sure that Lu Heng would not kill her immediately. As long as she was still alive, there was still hope for everything. She believed that Pang Xiao already knew about her situation and would definitely come to save her immediately.
Qin Yining gestured for everyone to stop talking, then turned to Lu Weigui and said, "Lord Lu, there's no need to say anything more. I've made up my mind. "He then looked at Jing Zhe, Liao Zhibing, and the others." Just do as I say. "
The men clenched their fists and gritted their teeth as they looked at Qin Yining worriedly.
Ji Yun said: "Since Master insists, then this servant will go with you."
Qin Yining shook his head and frowned. "What are you going to do? Stay here obediently."
"No. This servant is used to serving Princess Consort. If I leave you, I really won't be able to adapt. Since Princess Consort has decided, then this servant will go with you. I can even serve you closely. I believe that Master Lu will not object. "
Lu Heng heard the faint voices outside the door and heard Ji Yun's words clearly. He couldn't help but smile. "No need. I will arrange for a servant. You can come out by yourself. I won't let the people who follow you go lightly, so I advise you not to bring anyone with you.
Otherwise, if something happens, I will start a massacre and cause you to feel sad. "
Ji Yun's face turned ashen. She gritted her teeth and cursed in a low voice.
Qin Yining walked to the yamen's entrance with a heavy expression. The guards immediately moved aside and looked at Qin Yining with admiration, but more than that, they felt guilty.
Jing Zhe and the others caught up and followed closely behind Qin Yining.
Lu Weigui, the local district deputy, and Lu Weigui's advisor all had solemn expressions but did not immediately stop them.
Qin Yining knew that this was human nature. It was normal to seek benefits and avoid harm. She was not surprised by this scene. Also, the other party had not said that they would hand her over. She was the one who had suggested it.
Qin Yining opened the door.
As the wooden door creaked open, the gap in the door gradually widened. Qin Yining's beautiful and calm appearance was reflected in Lu Heng's eyes. She was dressed in a simple blue dress with narrow sleeves and a waist belt. Her black hair was loosely tied up.
Lu Heng immediately took a step forward. If there weren't so many people around them, Lu Heng would definitely pull Qin Yining into his arms and imprison her so that she would not have any thoughts of resisting.
But now was not the time.
Qin Yining stood in front of Lu Heng. Using the bright lights, she could clearly see the situation in front of the yamen.
Many commoners grabbed straw mats and made mats on the street corners.
There were also people who tried to talk to the rebel soldiers patrolling the city.
Qin Yining looked at Lu Heng with a smile that was not a smile. She smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. Master Lu's thoughts have become more meticulous."
"You flatter me." Lu Heng could hear that Qin Yining was mocking him. He immediately became angry. What he hated the most was to make a fool of himself in front of Qin Yining. But when he saw her beautiful face and her graceful body, Lu Heng's anger disappeared.
This kind of beauty was forced by him. It would be strange if she calmly faced him when she saw him. It did not matter if she made a few sarcastic remarks.
Lu Heng turned around and ordered his attendants, "Someone, prepare a carriage."
Lu Wenru hurriedly responded and quickly arranged it.
Lu Heng's soldiers surrounding the yamen were completely silent. They craned their necks to see what the Prince Zhongshun's consort that their master had coerced and bribed looked like.
Qin Yining was unmoved and said, "Since Master Lu has agreed, you should be able to do it, right?"
Lu Heng smiled as he looked at Qin Yining. His voice was incredibly gentle, "Don't worry. Since I have agreed, how can I not do it? Do I want you to hate me in the future? Since you are willing to follow me, I will not touch a hair on the people around you. You can rest assured. "
"That's good." Qin Yining walked towards Lu Heng.
"Wang Fei!" Ji Yun quickly chased after her but was stopped by Lu Heng's soldiers in front of the yamen.
Lu Heng did not even look at Ji Yun and the others who were stopped in front of the door. He only looked at Qin Yining's graceful figure as she walked towards him.
As for Lu Weigui and the others, their faces had already turned purple. They wished that they could find a hole to hide in.
At this moment, a loud sound suddenly came from the night sky. It wasn't an explosion, nor was it anything else. Instead, it was the muffled sound of something heavy crashing against the city gate.
Lu Heng's eyes were cold and he did not move for a while.
Lu Wenru quickly ran forward, "Master, it seems that someone is attacking the city from outside. This subordinate has ordered people to see who is coming. "
So fast? Qin Yining was surprised and happy. Although she did not investigate, she guessed that it must be the imperial court's soldiers attacking. Lu Heng had to lead people to resist the imperial court's suppression. He had no time to care about her here!
Thinking of this, Qin Yining turned around and walked back.
