Chapter 216: Assassination
The trachea is blocked, which means that the old lady was not poisoned at all, but choked to death!
Liu Mengyan's shoulders shook, and the hand hidden in her sleeve trembled slightly.
Uncle Jiang grabbed Dr. Xu's hand and asked, "You said that my mother was choked to death, so why did the doctor in the house say that the old lady was poisoned by Y?"
Doctor Xu explained to Master Jiang, "The poison of Y is purple in the face, and the old lady in the house is not breathing, and the purple face is because it is suffocated, and this symptom is similar to the symptoms of the poison of Y." It's normal that the doctor in the house can't see it. ”
Uncle Jiang and Chen stared at Dr. Xu in disbelief, some of them didn't believe that their mother would actually choke to death.
And Zeng, who was still a little weak just now, cried as if he had confidence: "God really has eyes, how did the old lady die, now the truth is finally revealed, and I can clear my suspicions." ”
Chen looked at Zeng as if he was going to make a big deal out of it, and hurriedly went over to comfort her.
The house doctor on the side also said with some shame, "What Dr. Xu said is exact, the villain did not find any traces of Y, but the old lady's face turned purple, so he judged that it was Y. ”
After listening to the words of the house doctor, Uncle Jiang believed that the old lady was choked to death.
The faces of the crowd were a little strange, and they probably couldn't believe that it would be like this.
After a while, Uncle Jiang walked up to Liu Mengyan and said respectfully to her, "Today's matter, I still have to thank the county lord, if it weren't for the county lord, my mother would definitely not know what the cause of death was." ”
Saying that, Master Jiang looked at the sky outside and continued to Liu Mengyan, "There is a lot of offense today, and the old man sent someone to personally send the county lord back. ”
"Thank you, Master Jiang. It's just that Ruoyan wants to go back to the Six Princes' Mansion with Dr. Xu.
The adult also has to take care of the old lady's funeral, and Ruoyan will leave. Liu Mengyan said.
Indeed, although the cause of the old lady's death is known, the funeral for the old lady will be held next, which is enough for Master Jiang to be busy.
He personally sent Liu Mengyan and Dr. Xu to the door.
When Liu Mengyan and Dr. Xu got on the carriage and horse of the Six Princes' Mansion and finally left the Jiang Mansion, Liu Mengyan's hand that had been trembling slightly in the Jiang Mansion calmed down.
Doctor Xu also had a serious face at this time, his face was no longer the hippie smile of the past, and he didn't expect that it would be so dangerous today.
He lowered his voice and said Liu Mengyan said, "This is the first time I have opened my eyes to the patient's family and told nonsense, which is really a bit of a shame." ”
Liu Mengyan frowned and asked Dr. Xu, "Dr. Xu, in fact, Mrs. Jiang didn't choke to death, but died of Y, what you just said was nonsense?" “
Doctor Xu nodded and said, "This time, thanks to the county lord who told me about this matter in advance, I didn't tell them the truth just now, in fact."
It's in that sour jujube cake. I and the doctor of Nafu are very clear about this matter, but the three princes are involved, and I can't tell the truth, otherwise I'm afraid that I and the county lord won't be able to get out of Jiang's mansion. ”
Liu Mengyan sighed softly and said, "I don't know why Second Lady Zeng killed Old Lady Jiang, after all, this is also her mother-in-law, what kind of hatred is worth her doing?" Ruoyan felt a little sorry for Mrs. Jiang. ”
Just when Liu Mengyan was feeling guilty, the horse outside was suddenly frightened.
The carriage slammed forward, and Liu Mengyan and Dr. Xu both pounced forward.
Immediately after, an arrow flew in through the window of the car, then flew past her face and stuck in the wall of the car.
"The county lord is quickly prostrate at the bottom of the carriage, don't move."
When Liu Mengyan heard this, she immediately fell to the bottom of the carriage, and Bitong hurriedly lay there and didn't dare to move at will.
So soon, the assassination came? Could it be that the three princes knew about the matter, so they wanted to kill people and kill them?
In this way, the third prince of Zeng's poisoning is also an insider, and perhaps, he is still the mastermind.
This place is so close to Jiang's mansion, the third prince actually took such a big risk!
If he is assassinated here, he will have nothing to do with them Jiang Fu.
The three princes are so stupid!
The more Liu Mengyan thought about it, the more frightened she became: If this is true, then the third prince is too vicious.
Then, Liu Mengyan only heard the sound of weapons suddenly sounding outside.
Several people in the carriage did not dare to move, but quietly listened to the movement outside.
After a while, there was another scream outside, and after about a quarter of an hour, the sound outside gradually ceased.
Liu Mengyan and Dr. Xu breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't know the situation outside, and the two still didn't dare to move casually.
Immediately afterwards, the door was opened, and a man in black looked at Liu Ruyan and Doctor Xu in the carriage and asked, "Are the county lords, are you okay with Doctor Xu?" The Assassins outside had fled. ”
A breeze blew, and there was a faint smell of blood.
Liu Mengyan slowly got up at this time, looking a little embarrassed.
Doctor Xu also got up slowly, looked at the man outside and said, "Who are you?" ”
I saw that the man in black clasped his fists at Liu Mengyan and said, "The county lord, who is the secret guard of the six princes, is ordered to secretly protect the county lord." ”
Liu Mengyan was secretly surprised, but hearing him say this, although she was still a little worried in her heart, she still slowly climbed out of the carriage with the help of Bitong.
"Your Highness is really a topper. If it weren't for you today, I was afraid that the county lord would be in danger. Doctor Xu also climbed out and patted his sleeve and said.
I saw that there was another person standing outside, all dressed in black.
There were also two bodies lying on the ground, dressed in black, whose faces had been removed from their cloths.
"Who are they?" Liu Mengyan asked.
"We don't know yet. However, the county lord can rest assured that the lowly will send someone to check their identity. The man in black hugged his fist at Liu Mengyan.
"Then how did you know that Doctor Xu and I would be in danger today?" Liu Mengyan asked.
"The lowly position is called Tuoba Feng, his name is Tuoba Quan, the two of us are the secret guards specially arranged by the six princes for the county lord, as long as the county lord is out of Liufu, the humble position will follow the county lord behind him and protect the county lord at all times, so we can appear so timely when the county lord has an accident today." Tuoba Peak Road.
Liu Mengyan asked in surprise: "Then you live on the opposite side of Liufu, so you can always know when I came out of Liufu?" ”
Tuoba Feng nodded and said, "The lowly and Tuoba Quan live opposite Liufu. ”
Liu Mengyan was a little angry, and felt a little funny, this sixth prince really didn't know how to say it, he actually sent someone to follow him secretly, he didn't know it yet, if it wasn't for today's incident that exposed them, he didn't know when he would know!
However, she didn't have time to pay attention to this now, she just wanted to know if it was a killer sent by the third prince.
So, Liu Mengyan asked Tuoba Feng and said, "Tuoba guard, this person may have been sent by the third prince." ”
Doctor Xu thought for a moment and said, "County Lord, why isn't it the Jiang family?" They were still afraid that the scandal would spread out, so they thought about killing us. ”
"Uncle Jiang is the secretary of the criminal department, and he is upright. And when I looked at him just now, I should have believed your words. At least not at this moment, such a thing could not be done in such a timely manner. Doctor Xu, the person who assassinated us clearly came prepared. Liu Mengyan said.
Tuoba Feng hugged his fist at Liu Mengyan and said: "It's better to let the humble post send the county lord back to the house first, it may not be safe here, and the next matter will be handed over to Tuoba Quan and Dr. Xu to deal with." ”
Doctor Xu nodded and said, "The Tuoba guards are very right, the county lord will go back to the house first." ”
Liu Mengyan thought about it, so she had to agree.
Along the way, Liu Mengyan was thinking about the sudden assassination just now.
"Girl, your face doesn't look good. Isn't it freaked. Bitong said with a shudder of her lips.
In fact, she was also frightened.
"You're scared too! Unexpectedly, he was still involved in their fight. Liu Mengyan frowned and said.
"Their feud?" Bi Tong was puzzled.
"Bitong, maybe there will be things like this in the future. Are you afraid? Liu Mengyan asked.
"The slave was afraid. But if the girl is not afraid, neither is the slave and the maid. Bitong nodded heavily.
"Don't worry, I won't let you have any problems." Liu Mengyan seems to be making a promise.
When Liufu arrived, Bitong was no longer trembling.
She helped Liu Mengyan out of the carriage.
Liu Mengyan turned to Na Tuoba Feng and asked, "If I want to write a letter to you six princes, will I give it to you?" ”
"If the county lord wants to write a letter to His Royal Highness, he only needs to hand over the letter to the lowly position, and the lowly flying pigeon will pass the book and deliver it to His Highness in time." Tuoba Peak Road.
Liu Mengyan listened to Tuoba Feng's words and nodded, and then said, "Okay, Tuoba Feng, tomorrow, I will ask her to send the letter, but where should this letter be sent?" ”
Tuoba Feng pointed to a courtyard opposite, and Liu Mengyan nodded understandingly.
"Thank you so much for today's Tuoba guards!" Liu Mengyan still said politely, "It's just that I will bring my own guards when I go out in the future!" ”
After throwing down these words, she took Bitong's hand and walked up the steps of Liufu and went to knock on the door.
Back to Chu Xiuxuan, Bitong, Qiu Yun, Yunmo and Qianyu saw Liu Mengyan return safely, and they kept watching her, and said, "Girl, you are finally back, we are all in a hurry." ”
"I'm fine, just a little tired. Go and fetch some water, and wash the pulp with me. Liu Mengyan said.
Listening to her words, the four of them hurriedly helped her fetch water and undress.
After a period of chaos, several maids were about to serve Liu Mengyan to go to bed, but she waved her hand and said, "I don't want to sleep for the time being, I have to write a letter first." ”
Liu Mengyan sat down where she usually wrote, picked up her pen and began to write a letter to the sixth prince Tuoba Zeyan.
