Chapter 173: Assassins

Hearing Zhao Qingzao say this, Han Guang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "As long as the master will not close the grass shop, then I can rest assured, even if the master and Mr. Shen return to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the future, I can also come to the grass shop to find the master." ”

Han Guang was most afraid of trouble, so Shen Changting really took Zhao Qingzao and Xiaocao back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it would no longer be so convenient for Han Guang to find Zhao Qingzao, so after knowing that Zhao Qingzao would not close the grass shop, Han Guang was so happy.

Like Han Guang, Boss Hu and Gu Xiaolian were also very happy, seeing this, Zhao Qingzao felt a little strange, so he asked, "What's wrong with you? Is the Prime Minister's Mansion terrible? Why do you all look like you don't want to get close to the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"Sister Qingzao, it's not that the Prime Minister's Mansion is terrible, it's that the Prime Minister's wife and Shen Changque are too annoying, so we don't want to get close to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Gu Xiaolian said helplessly.

Hearing this, Zhao Qingzao remembered Chi Fenglai and Shen Changque, many people said that Chi Fenglai was a smiling tiger, and he was very good with you on the surface, but he didn't know when he would stab you behind his back, Shen Changting was fooled by her at the beginning, so he fell into Xishan Ao, if Zhao Qingzao really lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he would have to face Chi Fenglai in the future, and it was very likely that he would have conflicts with Chi Fenglai, and Zhao Qingzao would not be able to live a stable life at that time.

In addition, Zhao Qingzao had just taught Shen Changque a lesson, if Shen Changque recognized her, what should it do? The more Zhao Qingzao thought about it, the more troubled he felt, and the expression on his face became a little dull.

Seeing this, Han Guang looked at Gu Xiaolian and muttered, "What are you talking to the master about?" ”

"I didn't mean to say that, aren't you worried about the Prime Minister's wife and Shen Changque?" Gu Xiaolian glared at Han Guang and then said.

Hearing Gu Xiaolian say this, Han Guang just shook his head helplessly, and didn't say anything more, although his mood became very irritable, but Zhao Qingzao didn't bother to think about the Prime Minister's Mansion anymore, Shen Changting had just returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now there was no word, why should Zhao Qingzao worry so much?

"I'll make something delicious today, and you all stay in the shop and eat. Zhao Qingzao said to everyone with a smile.

Hearing Zhao Qingzao say that he wanted to make something delicious, everyone left the matter of the Prime Minister's Mansion behind, and asked Zhao Qingzao to make something delicious, in order to reward Boss Hu and Han Guang, Zhao Qingzao specially made honey roast chicken, boiled beef, osmanthus lotus root, crab roe tofu These dishes, a group of people are very happy, and even Xiaocao has eaten two bowls of rice.

Because Boss Hu and Han Guang both drank, and it was not early, there happened to be extra spare rooms in the shop, so Zhao Qingzao asked the two of them to stay in the grass shop to rest, and after Boss Hu and Han Guang went to rest, Zhao Qingzao, Gu Xiaolian, and Green Shadow cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks together.

After tossing for a long time, Zhao Qingzao returned to the house, Xiaocao was already lying on the bed and sleeping, probably because it was late, so it was exceptionally quiet outside, and from time to time there was a cold wind blowing in from the window, which made Zhao Qingzao shiver, and then closed the window.

I don't know why, Zhao Qingzao always felt a little flustered, as if something unexpected would happen on this quiet night, there was no news after Shen Changting went back, and he didn't know if he could smoothly take himself and Xiaocao back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhao Qingzao sighed, reached out and pulled out the hairpin in his hair, and planned to go to bed to rest.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a sound of talking downstairs, Zhao Qingzao chuckled in his heart, thinking that it was so late, who would be talking downstairs, could it be Boss Hu and Han Guang? But the two of them had already gone back to the house to rest, how could they suddenly run downstairs to talk?

Because he was really not at ease, Zhao Qingzao walked to the door lightly, intending to see who was talking downstairs, but he didn't expect Zhao Qingzao to see a few sneaky black-clothed people downstairs at a glance, it seemed that they were skilled assassins.

Why did the assassins appear in the grass shop? Could it be that they were here to kill themselves? Zhao Qingzao couldn't think of who he had offended, and would let the assassins assassinate him, could it be Shen Changque and Bai Qingwei? Zhao Qingzao just thought for a while, and immediately shook his head.

Shen Changque and Bai Qingwei didn't know that she had captured them, and with Shen Changque and Bai Qingwei's temperament, even if they knew, they wouldn't let the assassins assassinate them, and bring a few little guys over to make trouble, this is what Shen Changque and Bai Qingwei would do.

If it wasn't the assassin that Shen Changque and Bai Qingwei were looking for, who would it be? At this moment, Zhao Qingzao's mind suddenly thought of a person, and that was Prime Minister Shen Cheng's continuation, Chi Fenglai.

Chi Fenglai has always been ruthless in doing things, and today Shen Changting came over to say that he wanted to take her back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but as soon as Shen Changting left on the front foot, an assassin came to assassinate Zhao Qingzao at night, and after thinking about it, he knew what was going on.

Although she guessed that it was Chi Fenglai's idea, the most important thing now was to avoid the pursuit of these assassins, otherwise she would not have to go to Chi Feng to settle the score, and whether she could survive tonight was a question.

Seeing that those assassins were about to go upstairs, Zhao Qingzao had to hurry up to find a way in addition to not making any sound, otherwise when those assassins came up, she and Xiaocao would not even have a chance to escape.

"I have no choice but to gamble. Zhao Qingzao turned his head to look at the vase placed by the window, and then said.

After taking the vase into his hand, Zhao Qingzao took a deep breath, and after getting ready, he opened the door with his hands and feet, and then threw the vase downstairs, the night was very quiet, so the cracking sound of the vase was very harsh, several assassins were stunned at first, and after reacting, they were about to go upstairs to kill Zhao Qingzao, seeing this, Zhao Qingzao hurriedly closed the door, and then pushed the cabinet to the door, intending to block the assassins.

However, the Assassins' martial arts skills were very high, so with just a few kicks, the door was about to be kicked open, and even if they got a cabinet to block the door, it seemed to be of little use.

"Mother, what's wrong? Why is it so noisy?" At this moment, Xiaocao was suddenly woken up, and after rubbing her eyes, she asked Zhao Qingzao.

"It's okay, Xiaocao continues to sleep. Zhao Qingzao hurriedly covered Xiaocao's ears and said.

Zhao Qingzao had never been so nervous, those assassins were about to come in, could it be that she and Xiaocao really couldn't escape this catastrophe? If she really died under the swords of these assassins, she would really be unwilling to be a ghost.

"Master, are you alright?"

"Miss Zhao, we're here to save you!"

Just when Zhao Qingzao was desperate, Han Guang and Boss Hu suddenly appeared, and found that several assassins were going to assassinate Zhao Qingzao, Han Guang and Boss Hu hurriedly went upstairs, planning to compete with a few assassins, Han Guang's skills are very good, Boss Hu is the boss of the Salt Gang, and his skills are naturally better, so the two of them may not be able to defeat those assassins.

Seeing Boss Hu and Han Guang appear, several assassins hesitated for a while, and then jumped out of the window and left, probably because they didn't want to reveal their identities, so they left in a hurry.

"Master, those assassins have left, and you and Xiaocao are safe. After Han Guang confirmed that the assassins had left, he knocked on the door and said to Zhao Qingzao.

Hearing this, Zhao Qingzao exhaled a long breath, fortunately, Boss Hu and Han Guang did not sleep very dead, so when she threw the vase down, Boss Hu and Han Guang were awakened.

"Mother, what happened just now?" Xiaocao yawned, still a little dazed.

"Nothing happened, Xiaocao, you go back to sleep, and my mother will go out for a while. Zhao Qingzao patted Xiaocao's back and said softly to Xiaocao.

Xiaocao really hasn't slept enough, hearing Zhao Qingzao say this, Xiaocao immediately nodded obediently, and then continued to lie on the bed to sleep, seeing this, Zhao Qingzao opened the door, and then asked Han Guang and Boss Hu to go downstairs, she had something to discuss with the two of them.

Except for Xiaocao, who was still sleeping, everyone else was woken up, and when something like this happened, everyone had no sleepiness, especially Han Guang and Boss Hu, the two of them saw those assassins standing outside Zhao Qingzao's door with their own eyes, if it was a little later, maybe everything would be irreparable.

"Sister Qingzao, who is going to assassinate you? This time they failed, they will definitely come again next time. Gu Xiaolian frowned and said worriedly.

"Master, otherwise you should live in another place, the grass is spread outside the city gate, it is not safe in the first place, and now that someone wants to assassinate you, you can't live here. Han Guang also said to Zhao Qingzao.

Hearing this, Zhao Qingzao didn't speak, just looked at the teacup on the table silently, and only said after a while: "I know who found these assassins, although I really want to make that person suffer a little, but I can't find a suitable opportunity yet, so I can only change places to live first as Han Guang said, and then talk about it." ”

"Who wants to assassinate you? Could it be someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Boss Hu suddenly asked Zhao Qingzao.

Hearing what Boss Hu said, Zhao Qingzao didn't refute or speak, but in this way, other people also knew what was going on, except for the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion, no one should come to assassinate Zhao Qingzao for no reason, and they also specially found a few skilled assassins, which is not something that ordinary people would do.

"Miss Zhao, otherwise you go back to the Salt Gang with me, and live in the Salt Gang in the future, I have a place for you to live there. Boss Hu was worried about Zhao Qingzao's safety, so he said to Zhao Qingzao.

Hearing this, Zhao Qingzao looked at Boss Hu with a grateful face and said, "Boss Hu, thank you for your kindness, but the Salt Gang is full of men, and it is not convenient for me to live in the Salt Gang with a child, and I don't want to cause trouble for you." ”

It is really inappropriate for Zhao Qingzao to live in the Salt Gang, so she thought about it, and still felt that it was better to take refuge in Chu Xingshan, firstly, Chu Xingshan was a general of the imperial court, and there were officers and soldiers guarding the house, and secondly, Zhao Qingzao was also fed up with being bullied, if she moved to live in Chu Xingshan's mansion, those who bullied the soft and afraid of the hard probably would not dare to bully her and Xiaocao easily, after all, everything must be done with Chu Xingshan, the general of the dynasty.

"As soon as the morning dawns, I will take Xiaocao to take refuge in the mountain, and you can go to the General's Mansion to find me in the future. Zhao Qingzao said very simply.
