Chapter 275: Assassination
After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Su Ziheng, who had been busy for several days, asked Zhao Wan'er to go to the temple fair together, which could be regarded as relaxing.
Jiangning has been rich since ancient times, and the form of temple fairs is also rich and colorful, and every year from the second day of the Chinese New Year to the fifteenth Lantern Festival, a lively temple fair performance will be held in a street market near the largest City God Temple in the city. At that time, many ladies in the city will walk together and enjoy this rare free space together.
In previous years, when I was in Xining, a temple fair would be held every year, but the scale there was not as large as the Jiangning temple fair. Zhao Wan'er and the maid Xi'er will lose interest when they go shopping for a long time, to be honest, the things they eat and play are not as good as those sold by their own commercial houses, and they will be watched by many people when they go out, where will Zhao Wan'er have fun?
But this year was different, and it was her fiancé who accompanied her on the parade, and the man she loved the most, even the most boring things would become funny.
After breakfast and greeting her parents, Zhao Wan'er did not take the carriage, but chose to walk to the City God Temple. Along the way, in addition to Xi'er and Su Ziheng, Shi Meng also brought five or six members of the escort team to protect his safety.
As for the others, they have all taken pictures to escort the ship back to Donghai County. Now every day from Jiangning Mansion to Donghai County, there are more than ten or twenty ships full of people departing, in order to ensure the safety of navigation, Zhong Qinghan has sent the Black Crow Army to protect the safety.
This is related to whether Donghai County can develop smoothly, and she can't help but care. Even after arranging everything in Donghai County, she went to Jiangning Mansion in person. First, I said hello to Jiang Ankang, the prefect of Jiangning Prefecture; Second, she heard that Su Ziheng had successfully courted her, and she wanted to come to the door in person to calm Zhao Chengwen's heart.
According to her and Su Ziheng's plan, the role of the Zhao firm in Donghai County will still be very large in the future, and many commercial matters will depend on the Zhao firm to deal with. Who made Zhong Qinghan lack people now, and the hundreds of people in Zhongfu are not enough to see in the huge Donghai County. It turned out that there were no available talents in Donghai County, and she had to go out in person for many things.
It's just that Zhong Qinghan's decision to come to Jiangning Mansion was her own temporary decision, and she didn't notify Su Ziheng in advance, so she could only be doomed to a void today.
……
……
Walking on the bustling street, although Shi Meng and others opened the way in front of him, Su Ziheng still felt very crowded. In desperation, he had to do his best to protect Zhao Wan'er and prevent her from being squeezed and fallen by others.
Even sometimes when there were many people, he held Zhao Wan'er's hand to prevent the two from getting lost.
For Su Ziheng, since the two have been engaged, he has personally courted Zhao Wan'er's father, and it can basically be said that Zhao Wan'er is his wife, which is a sure thing. Isn't it normal for two people to walk together and hold hands?
In the previous life on earth, if a man and a woman were engaged, let alone holding hands, basically all the things that men and women should do would be done.
But for Zhao Wan'er, being held by a man on the crowded street, even if this person is her most beloved person, she is still very shy, her cheeks are red, she lowers her head and doesn't dare to look around, and she is embarrassed to say that Xi'er is eating and laughing behind her.
After waiting for a crowded place, Zhao Wan'er shook off Su Ziheng's hand as if she had been stung by a scorpion. But she was afraid that her move would cause Su Ziheng's misunderstanding and displeasure, so she blushed in a low voice and said: "Xianggong, there are many people outside now, and it is not good to be seen, when I go back, the slave family will ...... again."
After a few more times, Zhao Wan'er was not embarrassed to say it. Su Ziheng knew that she was thin-skinned, smiled, and said, "It's okay, there were a lot of people just now, and I was worried that you would be scattered." ”
"Well, the slave family knows that the slave family is in a relationship with the slave family, and the slave family is actually ......happy in their hearts," Zhao Wan'er said in a low voice, her voice was like a mosquito, if it weren't for Su Ziheng's recent "Reverse Chaos Yin and Yang Decision" skills have made great progress, and he has stepped into the entry threshold, he really can't hear what she says.
Su Ziheng knew that she was shy, and he didn't want to tease her anymore in public, this kind of boudoir pleasure naturally had to be left when no one was around, and only he could appreciate it, so he didn't continue the topic with her, and turned around to buy a sugar gourd from a vendor selling sugar gourds on the side for Zhao Wan'er to taste.
Maybe today is the day of the temple fair, there are many people in the market, and the sugar gourds in the hands of the vendors are sold very quickly, and when Su Ziheng sees it, there is only the last one left.
Su Ziheng stretched out his hand and was just about to pick off the sugar gourd, when a white palm stretched out next to Leng Buding, Su Ziheng missed, and instead of grabbing the sugar gourd, he grabbed the white palm.
As soon as the palm of his hand was in his hand, a strange feeling came from Su Ziheng's fingertips, the touch was soft as jade, and at the same time there was a tingling feeling, as if he was electrocuted, as if there was some magic in the palm of the person's hand that attracted him, making his heart flutter, and he couldn't help but raise his eyes.
At this glance, Su Ziheng was stunned, he originally thought that the owner with such a soft and jade-white palm must be a beautiful lady, but who knew that it was actually a handsome boy who was even more handsome than himself.
Looking at the expression on the pretty boy's face, he was also a little dazed, as if he didn't expect his palm to be grabbed by another man, but to Su Ziheng's surprise, the expression on the pretty boy's face didn't look disgusted, but just like his own feeling just now, he was a little intoxicated.
This made him feel a chill in his heart, and he thought that he had met the kind of rabbit master who liked Longyang, and hurriedly reached out to shake off his palm. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a sinister smile on the corner of the sugar gourd vendor's mouth, and drew a slender sword from the shelf of the sugar gourd in his hand, and stabbed it at the chest of the pretty boy.
"There are assassins!"
Su Ziheng snorted, he didn't have time to think about it, and he didn't care about the feeling of nausea, he grabbed the palm of the pretty boy tightly and pulled him into his arms, avoiding the assassin's sword.
Suddenly, Su Ziheng only felt that his hand was loosened, and a flower appeared in front of him, and the pretty boy didn't know how to break free of his palm, and flashed close to the peddler, and a fierce force gushed out from the jade palm in his hand, splitting the peddler with a sword.
Su Ziheng, who was so powerful, was speechless, and when the hawker landed, he was already spitting blood, and the thin sword in his hand was already unstable.
At this time, Shi Meng and the others, who heard Su Ziheng drinking, had already reacted, surrounded Su Ziheng and Zhao Wan'er behind them, pulled out the military thorns they carried with them, and pressed towards the hawker.
Su Ziheng's face was already dripping with cold sweat, he didn't know whether this assassin was coming at him or at the pretty boy, and shouted coldly to Shi Meng: "Mengzi, catch the mouth alive." ”
