Chapter 22 Trust
Without waiting for Qin Yue to speak, Xi Feng, who followed up, told the truth, "The third master was attacked on the way back to Beijing from Chuzhou, and the other party dispatched twenty masters, but Xilin and I were sent to other errands by the third master, otherwise the third master would not have been injured so seriously......"
Chuzhou, why is it Chuzhou?
Qin Yue was taken aback, and then asked again, "What is the third master doing in Chuzhou?"
Xifeng shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Xilin wanted to say something, but was swept back by Xifeng's eyes.
Qin Yue intuitively felt that Xifeng didn't tell the truth, obviously didn't trust her very much, but he didn't say anything, just said: "The third master's injury, what does the doctor say?"
The two brothers looked sad.
After hesitating for a moment, Xi Feng still replied, "The doctor said that the third master's injury is too serious, it hurts the lungs, and if you can't find a thousand-year-old ginseng as a medicine guide, it is very likely to ...... There is a high probability that you will fall unconscious. ”
Qin Yue's face also turned pale in an instant.
If you stay unconscious, won't you become a vegetative person in your previous life?
Fortunately, it is really fortunate that among the rewards given by the emperor a few days ago, there was a thousand-year-old ginseng, although it was given to the old lady, but she would always think of getting it and saving Ah Chen's life.
Ah Chen, he can't be okay no matter what!
At this time, the fight in the courtyard was nearing its end, and the man in black, who was originally in control, became flustered because of Qin Fen's joining. Qin Fen wanted to fight quickly, so he shot mercilessly and made a fatal move.
Although the combat power of the man in black is not weak, it is still a big step behind Qin Fen, who is a top master. What's more, at the beginning of the battle, the man in black lost the opportunity and was too light on the enemy, so he showed a disadvantage in less than a pillar of incense.
A sharp shout was heard in the crowd: "Withdraw!"
The men in black quickly jumped onto the roof and disappeared into the darkness.
When Grandpa Guo led the large army of guards from the Guogong Mansion to arrive, all he saw was the wolf in the courtyard and the brothers who fell to the ground, and the man in black had long since disappeared.
Qin Fen and Qin Yue were also gone.
Xifeng left Xilin to take care of him in the house, and he came out and invited Grandpa Guo to sit in the side room, and then reported the details. In addition to concealing the identities of Qin Yue and Qin Fen, the others were explained in detail.
When Grandpa Guo heard this, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
The Qinling Duan family is a real family, passed down to the world in literature, whether the country changes hands for thousands of years, or the court changes, they are the mainstay and leader models of the people in the world, and the emperors of the past dynasties have also been favored by the children of the Duan family, entrusted with important tasks, and become the ministers of the court.
After Emperor Wan Xuan became emperor, he gave hereditary titles to the Qin family, the Duan family and the Xiao family, who had the skill of following the dragon.
Grandpa Duanguo died not long after the raid, and now he is succeeded by Duan Mu, the eldest son of Grandpa Duanguo, that is, Duan Chen's eldest uncle.
The reason why the Duan family was crowned the Duke of the Kingdom was that Emperor Wan Xuan still looked at Duan Chen's favor, and the people of the Duan family also understood this truth, so in the Duan Guo Mansion, Duan Chen was a special cunning, although he did not attack the lord, but no one dared to treat the third room badly, let alone give him a look. Duan Guogong treated him better than his own son.
Now that this nephew, who is more important than his own son, has not only been seriously injured, but has also been assassinated in the mansion by unknown people, how can he not feel horrified?
Duan Guogong only felt cold in his heart, and cold sweat flowed on his forehead.
If this nephew really has three longs and two shorts, then he doesn't have to do it.
Xifeng saw his thoughts, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, the third master will be fine for the time being." ”
Duan Guogong still frowned, and said worriedly: "But if you can't find the thousand-year-old ginseng, what should Chen'er's injury be? ”
Xifeng hurriedly said: "When the third master was sober, he instructed that the news of his injury must not be revealed, not even the emperor, otherwise there will be a big mess." ”
Grandpa Guo looked a little displeased, "Your master and servant are chattering, and you don't say what's going on, so we can't help if we want to." And the matter of this assassin, I think it is better to report to the emperor, first, I can let the Yamen of the Fifth Army send troops to protect it, and secondly, I must also track down the identity of the assassin, I can't eat this dumb loss silently, right?"
Xifeng waved his hand again and again, "Master, it's not appropriate." Since the third master wants to hide the matter of his injury, he will never let people know about the assassin. Obviously, the assassin who sneaked into the mansion this night was the same group of people who were attacked on the road by the third master. The third master has his own reasons for doing this. ”
Xifeng is the most powerful person around Duan Chen, and his words represent Duan Chen's meaning in a great way. Although he is a minion, he is more embarrassed than most of the masters in the mansion, even if it is Duan Guogong, he does not dare to offend lightly.
Because of this, although Duan Guogong felt uncomfortable in his heart, he didn't argue with him, only sighed silently, walked around the room with his hands behind his back for a while, and then said: "Take good care of Chen'er, if you need anything, just come to me!"
After saying that, he turned around and went to the courtyard.
Grandpa Duan Guo inherited the essence of his ancestors, focused on the study of subsets of scriptures and poems, and never experienced any intrigue and conspiracy in his life, so where can he help.
Seeing off Grandpa Guo, Xifeng rearranged the guards in the courtyard. Now that the third master is seriously injured and does not wake up, everything has fallen on his head.
When Miss Qin Wu was leaving, she explained that she would send the thousand-year-old ginseng tomorrow night, so that he could feel relieved.
Inexplicably, he believed in Miss Qin Wu. The third master's trip to Chuzhou this time was an extremely secret matter, and even their brothers didn't know what they were going to do, so when Miss Qin Wu asked, he had to be vague, which made her misunderstand.
Although Miss Qin Wu is still young, she can see people and things more thoroughly than ordinary adults. She said that the assassination of the third master was by no means simple. The other party pursued and killed so relentlessly, because he wanted to put the third master to death. This assassination failed, there will be a next time, another time.
The most important thing now is to protect the safety of the third master.
Miss Qin Wu also said that she would find someone to find out the identity of the assassin. Once found, it will be killed, and there will be no future troubles.
When she said those words, she was especially like a person, a strange woman who had been dead for many years.
Xifeng can still remember that Shen Jin, the purple-clothed son of the year, said sonorously in the confrontation with the regent: "What is loyalty? What is treachery? The eyes of the people are bright. The regent should not use the power in his hands as a weapon for personal gain, let alone play with the civil and military officials in the palm of his hand. The emperor trusted you and gave you power, but you used it as a public weapon to harm the people!"
"You, what face do you have to stand in the court and face the people of the world?"
