Chapter 026: Black Clouds Crush the City (2)
Late at night, it should have been the time to fall asleep, but the town of the town of the general of the country was brightly lit.
In Shi'an Garden, Pan's and Gu Yunjin, Gu Yunxin, and the eldest grandmother Li waited anxiously and worriedly.
Gu Yunjin saw that Pan's body trembled with fright, and opened his mouth to persuade: "Mother, don't worry too much, my father and eldest brother's kung fu are not bad, and they will definitely be fine, presumably the fifth brother will be able to pick them up soon." In fact, she was also panicked and scared like everyone else in her heart, but looking at these few people in front of her, she had to pretend to be calm.
Pan Shi covered his violently beating heart, and said in a trembling voice: "I know what you said, but I am not steady, I am very panicked, those assassins are obviously coming for the royal family and our Gu family, who are they?" Why harm the Gu family? ”
When the eldest grandmother Li heard this, she panicked even more, "What should I do then?" If we are targeted by those people in the future, our house will definitely not have a peaceful birthday. ”
Gu Yunjin hurriedly reassured: "Let's not scare ourselves first, let's wait for my father to come back from the palace and ask clearly." ”
Pan Shi nodded lightly, then tightened the coat on his body, and said: "Listen to your father, there were ministers who reported to the emperor that there were unknown people in Shengjing City, and the emperor also sent someone to secretly search, but no special people were found. ”
After listening to Pan's words, Gu Yunjin pondered for a moment, pondered and said his conjecture: "The assassins are coming at the royal family and the Gu family, on the surface, the enemies of the assassins are our two families, but I always feel that the assassins want to kill the royal people the most, if they really want to harm our Gu family, why do they do it in the palace, isn't the chance of assassination outside the palace greater?" So, let's not think about scaring ourselves yet. ”
Several people listened to her analysis, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to make sense, and their hanging hearts couldn't help but settle down a little.
Pan's heart was relieved, and she felt that her mouth was dry, and she took a few sips of the tea in her hand and then asked, "Why did the assassins assassinate the royal people?" ”
Gu Yunjin's cherry mouth pursed slightly, his eyes rolled, and he shook his head and said, "Who knows." In fact, the words she hid in her heart were not spoken, in the final analysis, the royal affairs were nothing more than imperial court battles, and I don't know who looked at Emperor Zhao unpleasantly.
Pan sighed and said: "Princess Yunli is injured, if this is spread to Qingxiao Kingdom, it will definitely cause a sensation in the court, and the marriage will probably be delayed." ”
Gu Yunjin was also a little worried, "Yes, I thought I was going to live a peaceful life, but I didn't expect this to happen, I really don't want to see war again." ”
Speaking of Princess Yunli's injury, Pan remembered that Gu Yunxin was also injured, and hurriedly looked at her and said: "After you come back, you only care about worrying and being afraid, but forget about the injury on your hand, hurry up and go back and let the maid apply some medicine, and then go outside early tomorrow morning to ask a doctor to take a closer look." ”
After such a big incident, Gu Yunxin didn't want to cause trouble for the family anymore, so he hurriedly shook his head and said, "My daughter is fine, a little injury, don't worry, don't worry about it, don't be so troublesome." ”
Gu Yunjin directly instructed the maid to find the wound medicine, and then personally smeared it for Gu Yunxin, and said apologetically: "I originally wanted you to enter the palace to participate in the birthday banquet and be happy, but I didn't expect this to happen, but it hurt you." ”
"Sister, don't say that, I'm really happy to be able to enter the palace." Gu Yunxin said in a sincere tone.
Everyone waited for nearly two hours, and finally saw Gu Xiaochen who had returned from the palace again.
Seeing that he came back alone, Pan Shi asked eagerly: "Little Wu, why did you come back alone?" What about your father and eldest brother? ”
Gu Xiaochen didn't care about replying, and rushed directly to the table in a hurry, picked up the teapot and poured it violently.
Pan Shi anxiously urged on the side: "Tell me quickly, what is the situation in the palace?" ”
Gu Yunjin and the others also stared at him without blinking, and their breathing weakened a lot unconsciously.
After Gu Xiaochen drank enough, he took a few more breaths before hurriedly saying: "The emperor is really angry this time, the assassin who was caught, the emperor was going to interrogate him personally, but before he could wait for the trial, he was rescued by his accomplices." You say, "This is not red." Bare. The naked ground challenged Long Wei, so the emperor ordered the whole city to be sealed and searched, even if they were digging three feet into the ground, they had to find out, so my father and eldest brother couldn't come back for a while, and my father was afraid that those people would hit our house's idea, so he specially asked me to come back and guard. ”
"So, I don't know who those assassins are?" Gu Yunjin was simply dumbfounded when she heard this, the action and courage of these assassins really had to be admired, she could imagine the emperor's thunderous anger.
Gu Xiaochen said: "I don't know yet, when I came back, the people in the palace were investigating the scene looking for clues, and I don't know if I can find anything." He looked up at the sky and said, "In two hours it will be dawn, so let's all go and rest." ”
Even if they waited any longer, nothing would come of it, so everyone comforted each other a few words and dispersed.
When he returned to the Splendid Garden, Gu Yunjin felt sore and tired, but he didn't feel sleepy, and finally went into the bath room to take a hot bath to relieve his fatigue.
She rested her head on the edge of the tub and closed her eyes slightly, thinking back to the events of that day. This day was really the most thrilling day of her life for her. At that time, if Dai Jinchao's bastard hadn't saved her in time, she didn't know if she would still be alive in this world. That bastard......
I don't know how long it took, and Yue Liushao's inquiry came from outside the bathroom: "Miss, have you washed it?" ”
Gu Yunjin opened her eyes, only to find that the water in the bathtub was already slightly cold, she got up and stepped out of the bathtub, and then walked out wrapped in a bathrobe.
Yueliu, who was guarding the door, hurriedly wrapped her hair with the cloth towel on her hand and wiped it.
Gu Yunjin sat in front of the bronze mirror, and unconsciously began to be stunned, in fact, even she didn't know what she was thinking.
Yue Liushao saw that she was unrelenting, and couldn't help asking: "Is Miss scared today, the slave was really scared to death at that time, if it wasn't for the sudden appearance of the prince of Nanling, the consequences are really unimaginable." ”
Gu Yunjin was silent.
Yue Liushao didn't say anything more, and only did what she was doing seriously.
Early the next morning, the assassin's assassination in the palace spread throughout the city, and the people changed their complexion when they heard it, and when they saw the officers and soldiers who came and went to search, they were even more frightened in their hearts, for fear of implicating themselves, so they hid at home and were reluctant to go out, which made the always lively and extraordinary Shengjing City a lot quieter.
Gu Yunjin, who had never slept deeply at night, woke up in the morning and went to Shi'an Garden to see Pan.
When she arrived at Shi'an Garden, as she expected, Pan's didn't want to have breakfast, and the maid Mu Xueying was trying to persuade her.
So, she accompanied Pan to breakfast, and then stayed in Shi'an Garden to wait for the general to return.
Unexpectedly, it was another day of waiting, and it was not until night fell that General Gu hurriedly returned home.
