Two days have passed since the assassination incident in Pingzhou City, and the arrest and official missions of the government have almost turned the entire Pingzhou City upside down in these two days, but there is no trace of the assassins.

It was a panic.

The prefect Zheng Wei was also very troubled, on the one hand, he had to send people to appease the people outside the foresters after the fire, and on the other hand, he had to deal with Princess Gaoping's daily inquiries, and he sprinkled all the anger he received on the head catcher Yang Lin's head.

Yang Lin could only swallow such bitter water in his stomach, and while intensifying the search and arrest of the whole city, he personally led people out of the city to find the traces of the horses.

But after two days, nothing was found.

It was as if the assassins and colts had vanished, and they could not find any clues.

In the evening of that day, Yang Lin had just brought a group of people back from outside the city who still found nothing, and after returning to the mansion to report the situation, he was naturally beaten again.

Holding his breath, he returned to the back hall, poured a cup of tea while resting, and crushed the cup after drinking the tea.

Because the three-day period given to him by the prefect is about to expire, if he can't find the horse after tonight, he will be able to catch the head, which is also the military order he has made.

He hated these Assassins now, and if he found them, he would have to cut them with a thousand knives.

Just when he was at a loss, a catcher ran in quickly and said to him happily: "Yang Zhutou, Yang Zhutou, the horse is back." ”

"What did you say?" Yang Lin thought that he had heard it wrong, so he quickly got up and grabbed him and asked him again.

The catcher said again: "Yang Zhutou, the horse has returned, and the official guarding the city has reported that he has just entered the city and entered from the east gate." ”

"Pony and whom?"

"Just the pony alone."

"Okay..."Yang Lin also suddenly became happy, holding the big knife on his waist: "I'll go to greet you, you go and inform the princess, and then send someone to the Horse Mansion to inform the princess." ”

"Okay..."

……

After leaving for two days, the prosperity of Pingzhou is still undiminished.

Zhang Xiang came in from the east gate of the city and returned along the Qinhuai River in the direction of the Horse Mansion, it was already evening, and the lights on both sides of the Qinhuai River were also slowly lit up, still brilliant.

Qin Elegy naturally wouldn't go into the city with him, Qin Elegy said that she had a way to go back, and she had to go to her senior brother Yuan Shen first.

After walking for a while, there was a sudden rush of footsteps in front of him, and then, a group of catchers hurriedly came to him under the leadership of Yang Zhutou, Yang Lin was sure that it was a horse, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then held a big knife in his hand and saluted him: "Horse, you are back." ”

Zhang Xiang looked at him and was a little strange: "Yang Zhutou, why is there such a big battle?" ”

Yang Lin smiled bitterly: "This matter is a long story, and wait for Yang to tell the horse slowly." ”

Subsequently, under the escort of Yang Lin and other dry catchers, they continued to return in the direction of the Horse Mansion.

Zhang Xiang also learned from Yang Lin about the night of the assassination and what happened in the past few days.

He said a little apologetically: "For the sake of Ming Heng, I have bothered Yang Zhutou and the prefect." ”

Yang Lin waved his hand: "If the horse can come back safely, it will save Yang's life, otherwise Yang really doesn't know how to explain to the princess and the prefect." ”

As for Yang Lin asked Zhang Xiang how he got out, Zhang Xiang only said that he was rescued by two knights, a man and a woman, that night, and after being chased out of the city by the assassins, he could only find a hidden place outside the city to heal, and he only came back after his injuries were healed.

The little slave had seen Yuan Shen and the veiled Qin Elegy that night, so Zhang Xiang could only say so, after all, if he was looking for him, the little slave would definitely tell some details of the night.

It is not uncommon for righteous people in the rivers and lakes to act bravely and draw swords to help, and Yang Lin didn't ask too much, for him, it is the biggest thing for the horse to come back safely.

After listening to what Yang Lin said that night, Zhang Xiang pondered: "So, in addition to the four assassins, there are other accomplices, and the fire in the forester's outer mansion is deliberate, divert the tiger from the mountain, lead you catchers and officials to the west of the city, and then assassinate me." ”

Yang Lin nodded: "It should be like this, otherwise how could there be such a coincidence?" It was raining heavily that night, and it was not easy to catch fire under normal circumstances, it must have been deliberately set on fire by fellow assassins, and we were assassinated before we went over there, and these assassins also knew that you had come back from the Old Dragon River, and they should have been staring at you for some days. ”

"These assassins are really mad, and in order to kill me, they did not hesitate to set fire to the forester's family, and this matter can't be left as it is." Zhang Xiang was calm on the surface, but he was also angry in his heart, although he was not a good person, but he didn't like to harm the innocent, these assassins had already assassinated him, if he didn't fight back, this kind of assassination would still have a next time, this time he escaped with his life? And what about next time? And next time, I don't know what innocent people will suffer.

He said flatly: "As long as these assassins are still in the city, they will definitely be able to find out." ”

Yang Lin also said: "Yes, I have already laid a net of heaven and earth, these assassins can't escape, I will definitely pull them out." ”

The carriage slowly approached the front, and the pedestrians on the road got out of the way.

Soon, the carriage stopped in front of them.

Yang Lin hurriedly bowed: "I've seen Princess Gaoping." ”

Zhao Hanyan walked down from the carriage, her eye bags were still a little dark, although she had done some makeup, she could still see that she hadn't slept well in the past few days.

The little slave on the side also cried with joy, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many people, she really wanted to hug the colt and cry fiercely, these days, not only the princess was worried, she was also scared to death, afraid that something would happen to the pony.

Then she always comforted herself in her heart: how could someone as good as a colt have an accident?

And with such words to comfort the princess.

Now that she is safe and sound, she is really happy.

She remembered the scene that night when the carriage overturned, and the pony held her tightly in the carriage.

Zhao Hanyan walked up to Zhang Xiang, didn't say much, just showed a slight smile, and then said, "Donkey, let's go home." ”

Zhang Xiang nodded and got into the carriage with her.

Yang Lin took a group of arresters, watched the carriage go away, and was relieved, and then changed his voice, and said sharply to his subordinates: "Continue to search for me throughout the city and find out the hidden assassins." ”

……

That night, the Pony Mansion ushered in the bustle after a few days of desertion, and after the disappearance of the Pony, the princess had a sad face every day, standing in the pavilion in the courtyard in the morning, and still standing in the pavilion at night, and she was free from a woman who was waiting for her husband to come home, and it was the little slave who called her that she went back to the room to rest.

Because of this, the people didn't dare to say much, which caused the entire Horse Mansion to be lifeless for the past few days.

Today, when the colt returned, the princess finally smiled, and ordered a large table of sumptuous dinner to be prepared in the dining room.

After the dinner, Zhao Hanyan sat with Zhang Xiang in the east room for a long time, that is, he wanted to know where Zhang Xiang had been in the past few days.

What Zhang Xiang told her was similar to what he told Yang Lin, saying that she was temporarily sheltering in a small mountain forest fifty miles outside the city, and because of her injuries, she couldn't come back earlier.

Zhao Hanyan sighed lightly: "I don't know who these two knights are, if you know, you must thank them." ”

Zhang Xiang smiled: "The princess doesn't have to worry, these people in the rivers and lakes are free and easy, pay attention to fate, this time they saved my life, he has fate, he will meet each other, and I will thank them then." ”

Zhao Hanyan said softly: "The horse has suffered in that small mountain forest in the past few days. ”

Zhang Xiang laughed and relieved her worried eyes: "Don't worry, princess, as the saying goes, if you don't die in a big disaster, there will be a blessing in the future, if I don't die this time, there will definitely be a blessing." ”

Zhao Hanyan was also amused by his relaxed appearance, and then summoned his subordinates, brought a basin of water, then closed the door and said to him: "Donkey, take off your clothes!" ”

"Huh...?" Zhang Xiang was stunned for a moment.

Zhao Hanyan said: "You and I are husband and wife, what else are you embarrassed about, I just want to see your injuries, the little slave told me that day, you shed a lot of blood." ”

"Oh... Oh..."

Zhang Xiang took off his shirt awkwardly, the white strip that bandaged the wound was cut from his sleeve by Qin Elegy, and it had never been changed, it was the bag that Qin Elegy gave him to change the ground, and almost all of them were dyed red.

After drinking the medicine for a few days, the toxins in his body have basically been drained, but the wound is not so easy to heal.

After Zhao Hanyan untied the white strip, she saw the almost bony wound on her back, and her hand couldn't help shaking, and then she called the little slave to fetch the medicine and get a new strip of white cloth.

said to Zhang Xiang: "When I moved from the capital, I brought a lot of palace medicines, many of which are good gold sore medicines, and after a few days, they should be cured." ”

Next, she personally medicated and bandaged Zhang Xiang, she should not have done these things usually, and when she did it, Zhang Xiang still felt that she was clumsy, either too hard, or too light, which made Zhang Xiang miserable, but she could only grit her teeth and endure it.

Because she is very careful, you can feel that she is trying her best to do it well.

This made Zhang Xiang feel quite warm, and the princess's wife's attitude towards him seemed to have changed a lot. ===(Ask for Votes)
