Chapter 356: Massacre

Cui Keyin was escorted by the Imperial Forest Army and came to Xinglin Hutong with a full guard of honor.

Ren Manjiang led people to ambush on the way, and seeing the murderous Imperial Forest Army passing by, he knew that with the twenty or so people in his hands, he was really not the opponent of hundreds of people. had no choice but to put away his bow and arrows, and watched Cui Keyin's Luan drive over.

Cui Zhenyi, Cui Muhua and his son opened the middle door and greeted them outside the gate.

They were just about to pay homage, but Cui Keyin hurriedly stopped them, and said as she walked towards the gate: "How is the situation of the eldest aunt?" ”

Cui Zhenyi hurriedly said: "The injury is very serious, and I am still unconscious, but fortunately, Imperial Doctor Wang has arrived and is being treated." ”

Wang Zhongfang was removing the bow and arrows and bandaging for the Jiang family, and when he saw Cui Keyin coming, he didn't have time to salute, so he didn't raise his head, and said: "Niangniang forgives her sins, and it is important for the minister to save people." ”

How could Cui Keyin bother with him, and said, "There is a doctor of King Lao, but I don't know how my eldest aunt is?" ”

Wang Zhongfang sighed: "The injury is not light, and I am frightened, which is really not optimistic." ”

Cui Muhua wiped her tears and said: "The good godmother learned that it was thanks to Guo Li's life to save her life, and her mother was able to save her life." ”

Guo Li is the leader of the guards, and it was he who risked his life to save Jiang in the rain of arrows, regardless of his own safety, and escaped with light kung fu to save Jiang's life.

Jiang went to Daxiangguo Temple in order to settle Cui Muhua's marriage, so he went to repay his wishes. I had to go to repay my vows during the year, but because the end of the year was approaching, everything was busy, so I put it off again and again, and I didn't go until this time. I didn't expect this to happen.

Cui Keyin said: "The eldest aunt is a natural person, and it is not a big problem to think about her life. The eldest brother also has to take care of his health. Don't be too sad. ”

Cui Muhua felt guilty and said, "If it weren't for me, how could my mother go to Daxiangguo Temple?" If you don't go to Daxiangguo Temple, how can you suffer from this disaster? Now my mother is unconscious......"

He choked up and couldn't say anything else.

Cui Keyin comforted her for a long time, and then went to visit Mrs. Zhang. Cui Zhenyi originally told his subordinates not to let Mrs. Zhang know, but when such a thing happened, the servants of the mansion panicked, how could they hide it from Mrs. Zhang? She was still calm, and saw Cui Keyin coming. "It's not safe outside now. How can you get out? ”

Speaking of which, it is still safe in the palace, and you must not leave the palace at this time.

Cui Keyin said: "Grandmother is frightened. ”

I'm afraid that Ren Manjiang did this matter. Zhou Heng has always let him go. I didn't expect him to do something to her mother's family.

Mrs. Zhang sighed: "I have lived to this age. What storms haven't been experienced? One or two of you are just afraid that I will be frightened. Don't you dare to tell me anything, don't you tell me, won't I know about the bloody storm outside? ”

Cui Keyin was silent.

More than an hour passed. After Wang Zhongfang finished the treatment, he came over to salute and said, "See Niangniang." The good godmother learned that Mrs. Jiang's life was really big, she was hit by three arrows, one arrow was only two inches in the room, if it wasn't for the dodge in time, she couldn't wait for the minister to come to the rescue. ”

No one expected that someone would assassinate Jiang.

The carriage in which Jiang sits is made of ebony wood and carved on the outer wall, which looks like a carriage of a rich and noble family; The interior is comfortable, you can lie down or lie down, but there is no thick steel plate to prevent arrow clusters, and it is inevitable that you will not be able to resist it when you are shot by the rain of arrows. In addition, the guards were defenseless, and they lost most of their manpower at the beginning, which was even more disadvantaged.

Civil and military officials have always been ashamed of assassination, let alone attack a woman or child. Otherwise, it would not have been the case as soon as this happened, the government and the opposition would have been shaken, and everyone would have been in danger.

Cui Keyin heard what happened, and it was even more certain that Ren Manjiang did it, and he only entered Beijing for more than a month, and something happened to the Jiang family. If he didn't do it, who could it be? I really want to catch him immediately and cut him with a thousand cuts.

Cui Keyin went inside to see Jiang's family, and after confirming that she was not worried about her life, she drove back to the palace.

Cui Zhenyi's father and son thanked Wang Zhongfang again and again, leaving Wang Zhongfang to rest in the guest room of the mansion without mentioning it.

Ren Manjiang did not give up, and led people to ambush on the way back to the palace, wanting to attack Cui Keyin, but he never found a chance, so he had to give up. The sneak attack on the Jiang clan can be said to be killed, and there are no casualties among his men.

The Cui family is a civil official, focusing on poetry and books, and does not attach importance to force, and the guards selected are only powerful and powerful, and there are no strong martial arts. Otherwise, there would not have been Cui Zhenjing who was drowned by Xue Ping'an in the Baidu River, and Jiang was assassinated by Ren Manjiang on the street.

Cui Keyin sat in the carriage, thinking all the way, to pick some martial arts Royal Forest Army for Cui Zhenyi, Cui Muhua and Tang Tianzheng to defend themselves, and wanted Xiao Rong to make a few more crossbows for the three of them to carry around. She never wanted to experience this kind of life when her loved ones were in danger at any time.

The carriage entered the palace gate, and she hadn't recovered from her contemplation, but Zhou Heng heard that she was coming back and came over immediately.

"This matter was done by Ren Manjiang." Zhou Heng said: "The secret agent followed all the way, and at first I didn't know who they were going to ambush, until they attacked the carriage of the eldest aunt, and the secret agent saw the sign on the carriage, and he knew that he was going to attack the eldest aunt." The order he received was only to follow, not kill, and he couldn't help but hesitate to come to the rescue. And there is only one secret agent, and it is really difficult to deal with more than 20 killers armed with strong crossbows. I am searching for the origin of the crossbow, and I have ordered the killing of this man. ”

Speaking of later, Zhou Heng couldn't help but feel a little weak. After Ren Manjiang arrived in Beijing, he jumped up and down, constantly contacting officials of various ministries, and he always let it go, and finally caused such a tragedy, which had a lot to do with his indulgence.

Cui Keyin's eyes widened, and she said, "Did the secret agent watch him kill people?" ”

It was her mother's family who killed.

Zhou Heng sighed: "There is only one secret agent, and he is weak, so he can't make a difference." After thinking about it, he explained: "To follow him and not let him know, you need to have extremely high light body kung fu and dexterity to do it." Such a person, Zilan has not trained much. ”

The previous order he gave was to track and report what Ren Manjiang had done, and he did not give the order to kill him. Therefore, the secret agent just faithfully carried out Zhou Heng's will, and watched a massacre with a huge disparity in strength from far behind.

Zhou Heng didn't explain, but the more he explained, the more angry Cui Keyin became, his eyes were red, and he said angrily: "You watched him attack my eldest aunt, but you didn't come to the rescue." ”

As soon as the words came out, tears flowed down. Cui Keyin raised her face, tried not to let the tears flow, and turned away to ignore him.

Zhou Heng sighed lightly and said, "It's me, I'm not here, I'll make an order and let them kill Ren Manjiang." ”

Cui Keyin said angrily: "What's the use of killing him? He was just acting on the orders of the king of Chu. ”

Zhou Heng knew that her emotions were a little out of control, so he sighed and was silent. Zhou Kang is his brother, whether it is flesh and blood, or the reputation of the emperor, he can't do it first after all.

"Okay Yinyin, I promise you, there will always be a day when I catch the second brother and avenge you, okay?" Zhou Heng could only say this in the end. (To be continued.) )
