Chapter 553: Falling Into the Water

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After encountering an assassination for no reason, Qin Huai’s eyebrows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill flies. By the time Chi Jia rushed over with his men, he had already protected Ah Yu in his arms and covered her eyes, letting her turn her back to the corpses on the ground.

“Come and see me after you’re done.”

Seeing Qin Huai’s cold expression, Chi Jia and the others knew that the Young Master must be in a bad mood now. They hurriedly knelt down and replied, “Yes.”

When they left under escort and returned to the outside of Linkong City, All Yu was still holding the arrow and studying it repeatedly.

Wang Wulang ran over with his movement technique and pulled All Yu away from Qin Huai. He spun her around a few times and looked at her.

When he realized that nothing had happened, he heaved a sigh of relief.

“You scared me to death. Previously, I saw that all of Qin Huai’s guards had run away. I knew at a glance that something must have happened on your side.” Wang Wulang looked at Qin Huai unhappily. “It must be you who caused this trouble. All Yu has always been very lucky. In the past few years, you’ve followed her. Look, you’ve brought her luck down!”

Ever since All Yu grew up a little, there were always some blind people who did not care that Ah Yu was still a young girl. She would often be harassed by hooligans.

After Qin Huai helped chase them away a few times, he stuck to Ah Yu.

Wang Wulang, this Big Brother, was jealous.

He even disliked Qin Huai somewhat.

She was clearly a sister who would only be married in the future, but for some reason, he felt as if she had already been married away.

“All Yu, where did you get this arrow?” Wang Qilang noticed the thing in All Yu’s hand.

Ah Yu handed the arrow to Wang Qilang. “Seventh Brother, didn’t you study weapons before? Can you tell which workshop made this?”

Wang Qilang did not like to fight, but he liked to study weapons and had specially researched them.

“Did you encounter an assassin?” Wang Qilang took it and looked at it. He blurted out, “The craftsmanship of this arrow doesn’t seem to be from Wangbei County. It’s a little like the work of Wangnan County. Do you still remember? On the last night in Wangnan County, we accidentally found a smuggling team. The arrows they used were very similar to this. Look at this outline. It’s curved and there’s a red mark engraved at the end. It’s not easy to notice—”

Hearing Wang Qilang say this, everyone remembered that there was such a group of people at that time. They did not transport many weapons privately and the business could only support about 100 people.

At that time, everyone’s attention was on the mastermind behind them. Other than Wang Qilang, no one else studied what those people’s weapons looked like.

“Does this mean that Ah Yu and the others were targeted by this group of people just now?” Wang Wulang looked at Qin Huai apologetically. He had even lost his temper at Qin Huai just now.

If it was that group of people, they really could not blame Qin Huai because Wang Wulang was the one who discovered them in the first place.

At this moment, Wang Sanlang also came over. He was the calmest among this group of people. The originally very lively Wang Sanlang was almost 20 years old this year and had the aura of a Big Brother.

“Don’t jump to conclusions so quickly. There are too many people here. Let’s help Young Master Ning appease this group of refugees first before going to Linkong City to find an inn to discuss.” Wang Sanlang made the decision.

The refugees were very easy to coax. They all ate the wild vegetables and hot porridge. Seeing that the nobles did not eat very well and it was also wild vegetables and mushroom soup, they felt much better with their porridge. (Chi Jia did not take out the wild animals he had hunted.)

When Young Master Ning learned that Qin Huai and Ah Yu had almost been assassinated, he untied the tokens on his waist and handed them to All Yu. “Don’t stay in the inn anymore. Go look for Magistrate Liu in Linkong City. He’s a close friend of my father. I’ve written to him long ago and introduced you. He definitely won’t treat you badly.”

Ah Yu did not refuse. “Then let’s go to the government office first. We can come back later.”

The group of them entered the city and headed straight for the government office.

Magistrate Liu received them very happily. The best rooms were arranged and there was an especially exquisite small courtyard.

It was said that Magistrate Liu had spent his own salary to build it bit by bit.

It did not look luxurious, but it was extremely romantic.

At first, Ah Yu thought that Magistrate Liu was really treating them so well on account of County Governor Wei. Later on, she realized that he was grateful that they had saved Young Master Ning.

It turned out that Magistrate Liu’s daughter was engaged to Young Master Ning and they should have been married. In the end, Young Master Ning disappeared, and his daughter refused to break off the engagement no matter what. She said that she wanted to be a widow for the rest of her life.

Now that Young Master Ning had returned alive and kicking, no matter what he had experienced, his daughter would be saved. How could he not thank them?

“Elf, do you think Magistrate Liu will help us if we tell him about the assassin?” When they returned to the room to rest, Ah Yu asked Meatball in the spatial pocket.

Although she was actually already ten and a half years old and very smart. Her ability to read people was still no different from before. She was much more guarded against people, but she still felt that human nature was good.

In her eyes, there were not many bad people in the world.

[I’ve just sorted it out. He’s been the magistrate of Linkong City for nine years. His reputation has always been very good. There are very few cases of wrongdoing. He’s a good person in the traditional sense.]

[By the way, he’s also an infatuated person. He only cares about one woman. The prefectural magistrate’s wife only gave birth to one daughter and didn’t have any more children. He still has a good relationship with his wife.]

Ah Yu roughly understood that people who treated their wives very well did not favor boys over girls. It seemed that they were on the good side.

At the very least, he was a good official.

Hence, after Ah Yu went to meet up with Qin Huai and her Big Brothers, she said to them, “Let’s leave cracking cases to professionals. We’ll tell Magistrate Liu to investigate what’s going on.”

“Magistrate Liu will help us?” Wang Wulang was not confident.

Along the way, they had seen some corrupt officials and evil officials. They were truly lawless and did not do anything for the people.

“This is something he should care about in the first place,” Wang Sanlang said. “All Yu is right. Let’s leave it to the professionals. We can take this time to stroll around Linkong City and see if there are any specialties that we can bring back for everyone.”

Actually, they had already bought enough specialties, but who would think that there were too many gifts?

They had brought All Yu out for a few years. Every time they received a letter from their family that was sent to the courier station in advance, half of the content was directed at All Yu, indicating that their family missed her very much.

If they brought more gifts back, they would miss them more.

Ah Yu also wanted to follow him out, but Wang Qilang left her in the government office on the grounds that the assassins had not been caught.

Together with Qin Huai, he brought the arrow, Chi Jia, and the others to look for Magistrate Liu.

When he found out that they had been attacked outside the city, Magistrate Liu was so angry that his beard was about to curl up. “Outrageous. They did something wrong themselves, but they still dare to assassinate us openly. Are they trying to rebel!”

He immediately expressed that he would definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give them an explanation.

After Magistrate Liu left indignantly, Qin Huai looked at Ah Yu, who was clearly a little distracted, and asked her, “I saw a little lamb raised in the backyard just now. It looks very similar to Little Lamb. Do you want to take a look?”

Ah Yu’s eyes instantly lit up. “Really? Could it be Little Lamb’s child? Let’s go take a look!”

However, before they could reach the courtyard, they heard a thud. Something heavy had fallen into the water.

Then, a female voice shouted in panic, “Someone, help! Our Miss fell into the water! Someone help!”

There was also a soft and weak female voice at the side. “What should we do?

Big Sister is about to get married. If she’s saved by a man—”

“None of us know how to swim…”

Ah Yu immediately looked at Tang Yuan behind her. “Big Sister Tang Yuan.”

“Yes.” Tang Yuan knew how to swim and was very skilled. She immediately ran in the direction of the voice.

After a while, Ah Yu walked over and saw a dying girl supported by a willow tree. Her body was covered in Tang Yuan’s outer clothes.

Fortunately, the spring warmth was still present, and Tang Yuan was also wearing thick clothes, so she was not cold.

Someone wanted to approach her, but Tang Yuan glared at them.

“Which family are you from? You’re so rude. Move aside!” A person dressed like a rich young lady covered her nose and scolded Tang Yuan with a frown.

When Ah Yu saw that someone was about to raise her hand to hit Tang Yuan, she immediately raised her voice.. “Big Sisters, are you playing house fighting here on such a cold day?”
