Chapter 218: Kill them all
A pair of centaurs came from afar between Xiao Shujun, no less than the people who wanted to kill them, all of them were dressed in black, galloping like elves in the night.
"There is salvation!" Wei Chiyan muttered to himself.
I saw that those black-clothed people didn't say a word and directly killed the people who wanted to kill Xiao Shujun and them, and they were caught off guard when they killed them.
The combat effectiveness of the man in black was obviously superior, and those people were seriously injured when they fought with Xiao Shujun's people just now, so it didn't take a stick of incense for the man in black to wipe out all those who wanted to kill Xiao Shujun.
Xiao Shujun was injured in his left shoulder, and Xiao Shuwei and Wei Chiyan were also injured to varying degrees, but fortunately, their lives were saved.
Xiao Shujun was wondering where the reinforcements from those men in black came from, when he saw those men in black walking towards Wei Chiyan, and knelt down and said, "It's too late to be subordinate, and the boss forgives the sin." ”
Xiao Shujun and Xiao Shuwei immediately understood that those people were Wei Chiyan's subordinates who had expanded for so many years, and they were Yu Chiyan's people.
Yu Chiyan said a few words to those black-clothed people, and then walked towards Xiao Shujun and Xiao Shuwei, "I had a premonition that there would be an accident on our way back to the imperial city, so I sent a message to call my people to answer. ”
"Thanks to you." Xiao Shujun expressed his gratitude to Wei Chiyan.
Wei Chiyan waved his hand, indicating that there was nothing, and then his eyes fell on Xiao Shujun's left shoulder, where the blood was bleeding. "Let's go to the front and find an inn to live in, take care of the wounds, and then think about it in the long run," Wei Chiyan proposed.
"Okay," Xiao Shujun's left shoulder hurt, he had already killed countless enemies just now, but now he couldn't hold it anymore.
Wei Chiyan ordered those men in black to follow them all the time, in case they encountered any more accidents, and Xiao Shujun's remaining dozens of subordinates also hid in the night with those men in black.
When I arrived at the inn, I found the best local doctor, Xiao Shuwei and Wei Chiyan suffered a small injury, and it was good to bandage it simply, but Xiao Shujun's injury was more serious, and the doctor took a lot of effort to stop the bleeding and bandage it.
"It's okay now, but it's best not to move your left shoulder lately." After the doctor finished bandaging, he explained like Xiao Shuwei and Wei Chiyan who were guarding the bedside.
Xiao Shuwei nodded, signaling that he knew, so he took out a piece of silver and paid it to the doctor, and the doctor took the silver and went out satisfied.
Xiao Shujun was lying on the bed with a solemn expression, but not because of his own injury, but because of Qin Kexin.
Xiao Shuwei saw Xiao Shujun's anxiety, and hurriedly said: "Second brother, don't worry, I have already sent someone to find my sister-in-law, and Gu Liang will definitely protect my sister-in-law and will not let him be in danger." ”
Xiao Shujun took a deep breath, it was because of his trust in Gu Liang that he was a little relieved, otherwise he would not even be able to treat this injury and go to find Qin Kexin.
Seeing that Xiao Shujun was a little more relieved, Xiao Shuwei said; "The second brother is seriously injured, it is not suitable to travel tirelessly, and we are afraid that we will not be able to cope with the danger on the way back, let's recuperate here for a few days, and then make plans to return to the imperial city when we find the princess."
When Xiao Shujun heard this, he was sure of Xiao Shuwei's proposal, but he returned to the imperial city later not because of his own injuries, but because Xiao Shujun wanted to figure out the origin of those who had just assassinated him, and Xiao Shujun always had an ominous premonition.
Just as Xiao Shujun was thinking this, Wei Chiyan, who had just been standing next to him and had been silent, suddenly took out a token from his arms.
"It's ...... Sun Dongliang's token? Xiao Shuwei recognized the token at a glance, which was used by Sun Dongliang to control the army.
"Yes, and it was found in the general who was about to kill those of us." Wei Chiyan explained.
Xiao Shujun remembered the general that Yu Chiyan killed just now to save himself, if it is really as Yu Chiyan said, then there is no doubt that the person who wants to kill Xiao Shujun is Sun Dongliang.
Xiao Shujun and Xiao Shuwei realized this at the same time, this is something that everyone knows, Xiao Shujun didn't dare to think about it, but Wei Chiyan ruthlessly exposed the fact that Xiao Shujun didn't dare to think about it.
"If the person who assassinated His Royal Highness King Qin is Sun Dongliang's person, then Sun Dongliang's behind-the-scenes manipulator must be the emperor! It is enough to see from the fact that the emperor and Sun Dongliang blocked the news together and did not let reinforcements support His Royal Highness the King of Qin. ”
The bloody facts were in front of Xiao Shujun's eyes, and his own brother wanted to kill him with his own hands.
Xiao Shuwei was stunned for a moment, this is like what the emperor did.
Although Xiao Shujun wanted to refute Wei Chiyan and told him not to talk nonsense, even Xiao Shujun himself couldn't convince himself, because he already knew that it must have been done by the emperor.
"Second brother, the emperor wants to put you to death, let's turn it around." Xiao Shuwei really couldn't bear what the emperor did, and everything Xiao Shujun did for the country was for the benefit of the people, the country, and the society, but the emperor not only didn't appreciate it, but also killed Xiao Shujun, Xiao Shuwei's heart was already cold, he didn't believe that Xiao Shujun still had hope for the emperor.
"Don't talk about it anymore, let's talk about it when we find the princess." In fact, now there is only one straw left before Xiao Shujun makes up his mind to rebel, and this straw has not fallen on Xiao Shujun's body now, but if the emperor still kills Xiao Shujun, I don't know when, it will definitely fall......
Xiao Shuwei and Wei Chiyan also knew that the most important thing now was to find Qin Kexin, so they didn't continue to ask Xiao Shujun what he thought.
Xiao Shujun couldn't sleep all night, for the emperor's affairs, and for Qin Kexin, whose whereabouts are unknown.
On the other side, Gu Liang took Qin Kexin to another inn, which was not very far from the inn where Xiao Shujun and they were, but Qin Kexin still didn't know Xiao Shujun's life or death, it was like sitting on pins and needles, and it was difficult to sit still.
Qin Kexin's face was full of anxiety, and she didn't know what to do.
Gu Liang saw it and hurriedly comforted: "His Royal Highness King Qin's Jiren has his own heavenly appearance, he will definitely be fine, wait until tomorrow to go down to the place where the accident just happened and see if he can find His Highness's whereabouts." ”
Qin Kexin knew that this could only be the case, but Qin Kexin was still extremely worried, and she never thought of how Xiao Shujun and their hundreds of people could beat thousands of people, so Qin Kexin didn't sleep all night, praying for a miracle to happen.
Early the next morning, Qin Kexin didn't have time to worry about anything, so she found Gu Liang and wanted to find Xiao Shujun's whereabouts.
"It's better for your subordinates to go by themselves, the princess will stay here and wait for me to come back." Qin Kexin insisted on following Gu Liang, but Gu Liang was worried about danger and tried his best to dissuade him.
Just as Qin Kexin wanted to open his mouth and ask Gu Liang to take him with him, Qin Kexin's somewhat familiar voice suddenly sounded downstairs in the inn, obviously Gu Liang also felt it, and the two hurriedly went downstairs to find out.
As soon as he arrived downstairs, Qin Kexin was ecstatic when he saw someone coming, it turned out to be Xiao Shujun's subordinate, and he was holding his portrait everywhere to ask about his whereabouts, which was enough to show that Xiao Shujun was still alive.
The man also saw Qin Kexin, and was also ecstatic, and ran towards Qin Kexin, "The princess is fine!" It was His Highness who sent his subordinates to find you and Vice General Gu. ”
Qin Kexin hurriedly shook his head: "I'm fine, how is His Royal Highness King Qin?" ”
This is the question that Qin Kexin and Gu Liang want to know most at the moment.
That subordinate knew that Qin Kexin must be worried about Xiao Shujun, so he hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness King Qin was wounded by an arrow in his left shoulder, but now there is no major problem. ”
Hearing that Xiao Shujun was injured, Qin Kexin was of course extremely distressed, but when she heard that Xiao Shujun was fine, Qin Kexin was completely relieved.
"What about King Ning and Wei Chiyan? How are they? After determining Xiao Shujun's safety, Qin Kexin hurriedly confirmed the other two.
Knowing that they were fine, Qin Kexin smiled and said.
"Your Highness, where are they? Without further ado, we have to make peace with His Highness quickly. "Gu Liang is afraid that the night is long and the dream is too much, and it will not be good to encounter danger again at that time, so it is safer to stay with Xiao Shujun.
When the subordinate heard this, he took Qin Kexin and Gu Liang to the inn where Xiao Shujun was, and took Qin Kexin to the guest room where Xiao Shujun was.
Qin Kexin opened the door and saw Xiao Shujun sleeping soundly on the bed, knowing that Xiao Shujun definitely didn't sleep well last night, she was distressed, and walked over slowly, and saw Xiao Shujun's bloodless lips and the clothes that were bleeding on her left shoulder, and she was even more distressed.
Qin Kexin sat on the edge of the bed, carefully looking at Xiao Shujun's face, this is the person he was worried about dying last night, and now he is lying on the bed safe and sound, it's so good! Qin Kexin thought to herself.
Xiao Shujun, who was asleep, felt that there were people around him, and opened his eyes keenly, but he didn't expect to see Qin Kexin sitting next to him, Xiao Shujun thought he was dreaming for the first time, but when his hand really touched Qin Kexin's face, he knew that all this was not a dream, Qin Kexin really came back.
"Madame!" Xiao Shujun got up with difficulty and hugged Qin Kexin.
Qin Kexin wanted to stop Xiao Shujun, who got up regardless of his injury, but when she heard Xiao Shujun's wife, Qin Kexin was stunned in place, Xiao Shujun had never called her that.
"Your Highness, what did Your Highness just call me?" Qin Kexin's head couldn't turn anymore, and he couldn't ask anything else.
"Madame!" Xiao Shujun solemnly repeated again, "This king was afraid that you would be shy before, so he never called it, but this king himself has called it a hundred times in his heart......"
Qin Kexin had just seen Xiao Shujun and hadn't reacted yet, so she heard such a love sentence, which really caught Qin Kexin off guard.
Seeing Qin Kexin shyly bowing her head, Xiao Shujun asked, "Don't you like this title?" ”
When Xiao Shujun asked Qin Kexinke like this, she was even more shy, she didn't know how to answer, she just nodded blankly, meaning that she liked this title.
Xiao Shujun smiled when he saw Lang Sheng: "That king will be called that in the future." ”
In order to alleviate the atmosphere that made her shy, Qin Kexin hurriedly changed the topic, "Your Highness, how did you get out of danger?" This is also something that Qin Kexin can't figure out.
