Chapter 168: Miscalculation
King Yi's whereabouts have not been followed for a long time, which has become a heart disease for many people, and what they are looking forward to is to bring him to justice as soon as possible.
But how easy is it to catch such a cunning person?
Every time there was a little bit of news, I was about to close the net and arrest them, but those people seemed to be loaches, slippery and slippery through the cracks of their fingers, making people jump like thunder.
But under the moonlight, Qin Ji's face was pale, and his forehead was covered with a layer of fine sweat, obviously enduring the pain all along.
He could only put these problems down for the time being and wait until he returned to the capital to make plans.
Out of the woods and into the carriage, Qin Ji sat on the cushion and breathed a long sigh of relief, and the doctor cautiously came forward to check his pulse.
Gu Zhongyi watched silently from the side, and Leng Buding heard Qin Ji say quietly: "After Gu Zaifu goes back, take the evidence of the Yue family's crimes to Dali Temple, and be sure to put their family in prison one by one, especially Yue Zhaohui." ”
It seems that tonight's killer was sent by the Yue family.
That's easy for people to understand.
Because of the relationship between the Yue family and the Zhao family, they are now in danger, and if they are not careful, they will also end up in ruin like Zhao Zhong.
Therefore, the Yue family sharpened their heads, and wanted to tie up the line of Mrs. Qin and the eldest princess, and the old love and kindness would not be useful, so they just needed to get rid of Qin Ji who was in the way.
It's a big deal. Gu Zhongyi opened the curtains first and looked at the carriage that had already left.
On the way here, he passed by a small temple that had collapsed and was destroyed, and met a killer who had escaped death.
After a few fights, he knew that these people came from an extraordinary background. It's not something that ordinary people can invite.
He watched the doctor carefully handle Qin Ji's injured hand, and his back felt a chill - the Yue family seemed to be a scholarly family on the surface, and the father and son were both Sven, but it was really heartbreaking to be ruthless.
Madam Qin came to deliver the news without telling anyone, no matter who she intended to hide, but it was a wise move.
The carriage started, and he walked on the road without hurrying or slow, for fear that if he walked too fast, the bumpy Qin Shilang would be uncomfortable.
The doctor bandaged Qin Ji's hand and instructed, "Before the wound heals." Do not use force in water. Even if the wound heals on the surface, you can't use too much force, you can't pull things in a cart, use martial arts with a sword, etc. The meridians have been injured. Care must be taken to maintain it. Otherwise, the root of the disease will fall, and these hands will be finished. ”
Gu Zhongyi became nervous, "Is the injury so serious?"
The doctor nodded. "Yes, I don't dare to bluff Gu Zaifu and Qin Shilang. ”
Gu Zhongyi sighed: "Recently, the matter of the southern tour has been handed over to me to do, so you can recuperate at home." And this time is very busy, and you don't have time to get together with your wife, so take advantage of this time to spend more time with your family. ”
Qin Ji said: "I don't need to build a boat and dig the river myself, where can I get tired?" Gu Zaifu and his wife haven't been together for a long time, if I am lazy again, Mrs. Gu will complain about me." ”
Gu Zhongyi laughed, "It's okay, it's okay, our old husband and wife have been for many years, and he can understand it, unlike you who have only been married for a few months." ”
Qin Ji glanced at Gu Zhongyi's smiling face, lowered his eyes, and responded: "Gu Zaifu cares about me so much, then it is better to be respectful than to obey my fate." ”
Gu Zhongyi was relieved, "Okay, good." But if there's something I can't handle, I'll come to you. ”
"I will definitely do my best to assist Gu Zaifu. Qin Ji arched his hand, but looked at his bandaged hands and smiled helplessly.
Gu Zhongyi waved his hand, "Why do you and I need these polite words. ”
Soon, the carriage quietly drove into the city gate at night and stopped in front of the gate of the Qin family.
Qin Ji didn't move, but ordered Hang Yang: "You take someone to take a look around." "Yue Zhaohui wants to get Zhizhi so much, he will definitely rush into the door of his house as soon as he hears the news of his success and take Zhizhi away. So at this time, if you look around your home, you will definitely be able to find Yue Zhaohui. At this hour, he dared to hang outside, and the first violation of the curfew was enough for him to drink a pot.
After all, there was something about King Yi before, and the Yue family was related to King Yi through the Zhao family, and now the capital seems to be much calmer, and it has returned to its former liveliness, but in fact, people are panicking, and they are afraid that something will happen overnight and bring them death, so violating the curfew can basically be regarded as a conspiracy.
As long as he grabs Yue Chaohui, he must be asked to taste it.
Qin Ji squinted his eyes and watched Hang Yang lead people away, before he got out of the carriage slowly.
As soon as he stepped on the steps of the door, he saw a figure flickering in front of him.
"Qin Ji!" Yu Mingzhi hurriedly ran over, and when he wanted to pounce on Qin Ji, he saw his face and bandaged hands at a glance, and stopped his steps in time.
She blinked her eyes, held back her tears, and her long-held heart could finally return to its original place.
"Zhizhi, I'm fine. Qin Ji said softly, shaking his hand at the same time, "It's just a small injury." ”
Gu Zhongyi was afraid that she wouldn't believe it, "I've already shown it to the doctor, it's okay, my brother and sister can rest assured." ”
Yu Mingzhi saluted him properly and thanked him, "Thank you Gu Zaifu for your help." ”
"It's a matter of duty. Gu Zhongyi looked at Qin Ji with a sigh, no matter what, he couldn't let him have an accident, how could Qin Ji be missing in today's major events.
Qin Ji thanked him, and then sent Gu Zhongyi away.
Yu Mingzhi hurriedly stepped forward, carefully held Qin Ji's arm, and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"
Qin Ji shook his head, "With a branch by your side, it doesn't hurt at all." After he said this, he caught a glimpse of Madame Yu and Princess Cheng standing at the door of the hall, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them both returning.
"It's worried about my mother-in-law and Princess Cheng, it's Qin Ji's fault. Qin Ji bowed slightly to them.
Mrs. Yu hurriedly waved her hand, "It's good for people to come back." You're hurt, get some rest. We'll talk about everything when you're rested. Mingzhi, Qin Ji is your husband, and you must take good care of him as a wife. ”
Yu Mingzhi nodded, "Mingzhi understands. ”
"Well, let's go back. Mrs. Yu sighed, "Princess Cheng and I also have to rest, it's too late." ”
Princess Cheng also nodded to them, "Rest early." The wound heals quickly, too. ”
Qin Ji said: "Thank you Princess Cheng for your concern." ”
Yu Mingzhi helped Qin Ji back to the main courtyard, and first took off the robe that was already dirty.
Qin Ji said: "Leave it to others to serve, you are tired of waiting so late." ”
Yu Mingzhi said: "You also see how much your mother-in-law feels sorry for you, right?"
Qin Ji thought of the real anxiety in Mrs. Yu's eyes, and the look on her face after seeing them, she knew what kind of mind Mrs. Yu was thinking, and she felt that the burden on her shoulders was getting lighter and lighter.
"So, I also have to listen to my mother and take good care of you?" Qin Ji said.
The maid brought hot water and went out quietly, Yu Mingzhi asked Qin Ji to sit on the bed, and then twisted a warm towel. Come and wipe his face and body.
There was dust on his face and body. There were also some bruises, and her movements couldn't help but become more gentle, carefully wiping off the dust little by little, "I only have one problem." Who is it?"
This "who" naturally refers to who sent the killer.
Qin Ji said: "Yue Zhaohui." ”
Yu Mingzhi was not surprised. Yue Zhaohui was also in her conjecture. "It turned out to be him, and he really jumped off the wall in a hurry. ”
Qin Ji said: "I'll ask Hang Yang to take a turn outside to see if I can catch him." ”
It's time to deal with it, and this time it's time to do something like this. I don't know how crazy it will be next time. After all, people are cornered, and they can do anything.
Yue Zhaohui always thought that she was forced to be with Qin Ji, thinking about rescuing her from this fire pit, and wanting to tie up with the eldest princess as a big backer.
Such a brainless person is a big trouble.
Now it's time to settle the score.
"Hopefully this will pass as soon as possible. Yu Mingzhi shook the towel in his hand and went to wash it again.
Qin Ji looked at her back, thought for a moment, and asked, "Zhizhi keeps it very secretive, and neither mother-in-law nor Princess Cheng knows, right?"
Yu Mingzhi's hand paused, she turned her back to Qin Ji, thinking that this momentary hesitation should not have been noticed by him, and responded lightly: "Things happened too suddenly, I always feel that there seems to be an inner ghost around me, knowing the news of your whereabouts, I can arrange the killer and force you into danger." So when I made a fuss, I came out of the uncomfortable thing, and quietly hid it from everyone to find Gu Zaifu to get an idea. ”
She turned around and saw Qin Ji looking out the window, "Yes, maybe there are still ghosts in this mansion, there are no impermeable walls in the world, and there is no unchanging human heart." ”
"So, your heart for me will also change?" Yu Mingzhi asked with a frown.
Qin Ji actually nodded seriously, "Yes." ”
Yu Mingzhi knew he was joking, but still gently threw the towel on his shoulder, "You wipe it yourself." ”
Qin Ji wanted to pull her into his arms, but when he saw his hands, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I want to too, but ......"
"Hmph. Yu Mingzhi picked up the towel and deliberately put on a face.
Qin Ji stretched out his arms, avoided his hands, took Yu Mingzhi into his arms with his arms, looked at her stiff face, and said with a smile: "My heart will change, that is from loving you to loving you more." ”
Yu Mingzhi laughed out loud, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed, "It's sweet for you." ”
Qin Ji hugged Yu Mingzhi tightly, his forehead pressed against his forehead, "During this time, I will accompany you more at home." The outside affairs will be handed over to Gu Zhongyi to deal with first, and it is just the time to clean up the internal ghosts at home,"
"Good. Yu Mingzhi continued to wipe his body.
Qin Ji said: "Your reaction is so cold......"
Yu Mingzhi said: "I'm afraid I'm too excited, I don't have a weight in my hand, and I hurt you again?"
Qin Ji sighed.
Yu Mingzhi looked at him, hugged his neck, and kissed him lightly on the lips, "How about this?"
"Not enough. Qin Ji said, kissed again, pried open the red lips, and kissed her deeply.
The two kissed until they were short of breath and hurriedly separated, Yu Mingzhi hurriedly wiped his body, and asked the maid to change the hot water again, clean up again, and help him change into homely clothes.
Busy with these efforts, Hang Yang sent the news back and forth, "I have checked, Yue Chaohui has been staying at home." ”
"It seems that he is still very cautious. Qin Ji sneered: "But don't be too happy, after dawn is also the death of the Yue family." ”
Hang Yang answered "yes" and retreated from the door.
Yu Mingzhi tied his clothes, helped Qin Ji to go to bed to rest, and then freshened himself up and lay down beside him.
Seeing him lying beside her, Yu Mingzhi felt much more steady, she wanted to get closer, but she was afraid of touching Qin Ji's hand.
Qin Ji sensed his wife's tense body, smiled, turned sideways, and hugged her shoulders, "Sleep." ”
"Good. Yu Mingzhi also felt tired, if he had anything to say, it would not be too late to say it tomorrow, and it was not possible to rush this kind of thing with or without children. She closed her eyes, felt the questions of the people around her, and fell asleep peacefully.
After sleeping until dawn the next day, Yu Mingzhi helped Qin Ji freshen up, faced the breakfast brought by the maids, picked up the rice bowl with one hand, and stirred a few times in the white rice porridge with a small spoon in the other, blowing away the heat, and then scooped a spoonful of porridge, and sent it to Qin Ji with a natural expression.
Qin Ji ate it in one bite and waited for the second bite with a smile.
Yu Mingzhi looked at his expression, took back the spoon he handed over, and ate it himself.
The white porridge is cooked just right, soft and glutinous and sweet, even if it is not paired with side dishes, it tastes delicious.
Qin Ji saw a smile on the corner of her mouth, and her smile deepened, and there seemed to be countless bright stars in her eyes, all shining on Yu Mingzhi's body.
"The white porridge was well cooked. Yu Mingzhi said, continue to feed Qin Ji.
Outside the window, on a branch, a pair of magpies chirped and jumped.
People say that seeing magpies is something good to happen, but there are still two at this time, I don't know if it means that there will be two things going well.
Qin Ji stared at her and asked, "Zhizhi has something on his mind?"
Yu Mingzhi smiled: "Actually...... Last night, I pretended to be retching and uncomfortable, and asked Zhu'er to tell the doctor that I might be pregnant, so that the family was in a commotion, so that Jing'er could secretly go out to find Gu Zaifu. My mother thought it was true, but she was happy, and I was afraid that I would disappoint her. ”
Qin Ji raised his hand and pointed at the magpie, "Look, they're here to report good news to you." ”
Yu Mingzhi said: "I hope so." She happened to bump into Qin Ji's shining eyes, suddenly realized what she was saying, her cheeks were slightly hot, she coughed lightly, and added some white porridge to the bowl, "You eat some more." ”
"Good. Qin Ji smiled and ate another bite of white porridge.
Soon, a bowl of white porridge was at the bottom, Yu Mingzhi also ate some by himself, and just put down the dishes and chopsticks to ask the maid to clean up, Zhu'er came over and said that there was something to report.
Looking at her expression, it should be an important matter, so Qin Ji said, "Say it." ”
Zhu'er said: "There is news from outside, Gu Zaifu thinks that now is not a good time to arrest Yue Tingshi and his family. ”
Qin Ji's brows furrowed quickly, "Reason?"
Gu Jaefu did not give a reason. Zhu'er said.
It stands to reason that this matter will definitely be justified, this is the responsibility and obligation between companions, and it is also the best way to maintain trust and avoid suspicion, but Gu Zhongyi is so sloppy. Then he must have his own purpose in doing this. (To be continued.) )
