Chapter 242: Search by officers and soldiers

He was unable to discuss a solution with King Dun for a moment, and Liu Qin had to go back before the city gate was locked, so he had to leave in a hurry and agreed to see him another day.

King Dun also promised to send someone to the Liu family to take a look first, then find a way to respond in the city, and try to notify Prime Minister Lu.

After saying goodbye, Liu Qin took the silver given by King Dun and bought some simple food at the market, as well as two clothes worn by ordinary people, and hurried back.

But unexpectedly, when he first walked not far from home, he saw a group of officers and soldiers walking towards the direction where his home was.

I suddenly became alert.

It would be fine if it was Prime Minister Lu or Lord Hu, but if it was a Ming King, it would be dangerous.

Not daring to think too much, Liu Qin rushed home first and greeted his parents without saying a word.

"Hurry, hide Mr. Wen and his wife quickly. I'm afraid that some officers and soldiers will come to search for him. I'm afraid that the visitors will be bad. Maybe it was their uncle's family who did it!"

As he said, he knocked on the door and entered Pei Yao and Fang Yoon's house.

At this moment, Pei Yao was closing his eyes to rest. After hearing the movement, he did not dare to delay and got out of bed immediately.

"Damn, you know where you can hide at home. Dalang and I are dealing with each other outside. You should take the young master and wife to hide." Although Liu Jinzhu was nervous, he was not panicked.

When Chen heard this, he nodded quickly.

Liu Jinzhu and Liu Qin and his son went out. Although the youngest Liu Bo didn't know what happened, he saw that his parents and brother were facing a great enemy and entered his room very well.

Not long after, the sound of officers and soldiers calling out at the door came from the door.

"Is there anyone? Come out quickly and search the yamen!"

Liu Qin was about to go out when he saw that there were still clothes that Pei Yao and Fang Xuan had changed in the room and were not treated. He was also shocked and sweating.

He hurriedly picked up the clothes and stuffed them to his father.

"Dad, burn all these clothes quickly, don't leave an inch, don't be discovered!"

"good!"

Seeing that his son was so nervous, Liu Jinzhu had some speculations about Pei Yao and Fang Yoon's identities, but he didn't expect that he was a big shot like the prince, and he only thought he was a great noble family.

Otherwise, how could the officers and soldiers be searched?

So I didn't dare to be vague and immediately went to the kitchen with my clothes in my arms.

"Why haven't the people inside come out yet!"

The officers and soldiers outside were obviously a little impatient and shouted again.

Liu Qin took care of his clothes and walked out of the house quickly.

"Here you come, what's wrong with the official?"

While opening the gate, Liu Qin asked in a flattering manner.

The head guard had a bad expression and squeezed away Liu Qin and walked into the yard.

"search!"

Looking at this attitude, Liu Qin couldn't help but frown.

But he adjusted his state quickly and followed again.

"What are you searching for in our wilderness? Not to mention thieves and bandits, there is not even a figure, but what happened outside?"

The guard turned his head and glanced at him, "Stop asking, you have just come back from a horse and have a lot of bags. What are you doing? Is there a guest at home?"

"No." Liu Qin waved his hand, "I went to the city to get some thoughts for my parents, bought some food, and the things were there. Master, please go and see, but what happened? I

I'll be checked strictly when I go into and out of the city today."

"Catch thieves, one man and one woman, two thieves." The guard snorted coldly.

Then he rushed into the inner room without looking back.

When Liu Qin heard this, he was completely sure that this group must not be a good person.

If I came to save the prince and Fang Liangdi, how could I say this?

When he thought about this, the head guard had waved and signaled the seven or eight people who followed him to scatter and searched all over the courtyard, inside and out.

Liu Jinzhu was pushed out of the kitchen by several guards, and staggered a few steps, still angry on his face.

Obviously annoyed by the behavior of this group of people.

Liu Qin hurried forward to support his father and signaled him not to act rashly.

But unexpectedly, soon, a guard ran over from the place where the firewood was piled with a long sword.

"Boss, I found this!"

As soon as he saw the long sword, Liu Jinzhu suddenly changed his face.

This was the sword that Fang Yoon tied to his waist when he saved Fang Yoon and Pei Yao. After he brought it back together, he saw that the sword was cast well and he didn't want to throw it away, so he placed it near the pile of firewood and forgot.

The sword was the sword of the guards of the Ming Palace. He recognized it at a glance, and immediately showed a fierce look and ordered people to surround the father and son.

"Tell me, where did this thing come from? Are you hiding the criminal? If you don't tell me truthfully and find me, your whole family will lose their heads!"

"This is, this is picked up. Caomin went to the forest to chop firewood today and picked it up accidentally. Caomin didn't know what criminal this thing is related to!" Liu Jinzhu hurriedly denied.

Liu Qin immediately stood in front of his father.

"Official, my father has indeed picked up this sword. We don't know any criminals. Our family lives in seclusion here and makes a living by harvesting firewood. How could we get involved in these things?"

But the guard obviously didn't believe it, so he held the knife and put it on Liu Qin's neck.

And ordered others to continue to go inside and search.

This time I was even more rude. It was not like searching, but more like searching a house, rude and arrogant, smashing things all over the ground.

There were three rooms in the house. Pei Yao and Fang Xuan settled in Liu Qin's room. Soon the guards found this place and found nothing unusual. They entered the room of Liu Jinzhu and Chen next door.

When he found out here, Chen happened to come out of the house in a hurry.

The guards pushed her away rudely. After searching, they saw two large boxes covered with cloth behind the bed.

The box is enough to accommodate adults, and the surface of the cloth has traces of being lifted.

The two guards looked at each other, then slowed down and slowly leaned towards the wooden box.

Liu Jinzhu and Liu Qin were also escorted in at this moment. The family of three stood together. Seeing this, Ju's heart was sank.

The two guards did not stop. They walked to the box, stood still, and suddenly pulled off the cloth covering the top and lifted up the cover of one of the boxes.

Standing behind, he was escorting the leading guards of the three members of the Liu family. He saw someone in the box with sharp eyes and shouted immediately.

"Catch him!"

"Brother, you have found me!"

As the leading guard shouted, the people in the box stood up. It was not Pei Yao or Fang Yun at all, but Liu Bo, the youngest son of the Liu family.

Seeing this, the guards present were stunned.

Unexpectedly, it was a child hiding inside.

Liu Qin reacted quickly and immediately apologized to the guards beside him and said.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this is my younger brother, the child is very playful. I'm playing hide-and-seek with him when you come."

The leading guard looked at him, and did not speak, signaling the two guards to open the other box.

However, the other box contains the family's winter clothes and quilts, so there is no problem.

Seeing that nothing was found here, the leading guard asked about the origin of the sword again, then took the sword and left.

After confirming that they were walking away, the Liu family hurriedly carried Liu Bo out of the wooden box, and then worked together to move the two large boxes away, revealing the thick wooden boards underneath.
