Chapter 128: The Assassination of the Five Kings
Liuying Youmeng is also in the same mood as Peng Hao, if they insist on going out with their master, maybe the master will not be poisoned, at least they can sacrifice themselves to save the master when danger occurs.
It was late at night, and the two saw that Peng Hao had no intention of leaving, glanced at each other, and Liuying stepped forward and said: "Third young master, it's late at night, you go back and rest, the master has me and Youmeng guarding here, and it will be fine." ”
Peng Hao also knew that it was unreasonable to be here late at night, so he went out of the yard, but did not go back to Ruize Garden, but walked to the small garden and found a place to sit down at random.
The wind was slightly cool, and he was complicated in his heart, he wanted to find an opportunity to let the eldest brother and second brother come back, and Mo'er's matter still had to be discussed before he could tell his mother.
Based on his mother's impression of Jin Xiuchen, this son-in-law is only afraid that her old man is not very satisfactory.
You need to take your time!
The Imperial Palace
In the middle of the night, Jin Roujia didn't feel sleepy at all, her brows were frowned, her face was uneasy, her hands were loosened, her grip was loose, and she walked back and forth in the hall.
The palace maid Orchid looked at it and stepped forward and said, "Princess, you should rest." ”
Jin Roujia stopped, sighed, sat on the stool in frustration, and frowned: "You say, Peng Mo will be fine, right?"
Orchid didn't know about Peng Mo's situation, but seeing that Jin Roujia was so sad, she could only comfort: "Don't worry, princess, the emperor has sent the best medical doctor Wu Imperial Doctor to the General's Mansion to treat Miss Peng Si, Miss Peng Si is auspicious, she will definitely be fine!"
"But... But Peng Mo is weak, and it will be difficult to survive the poison!" Jin Roujia remembered the scene when she found Peng Mo, she was curled up on the dead leaves, her skin was clammy and cold, her lips were black, she was unconscious, and her weak body seemed to be dying at any time.
"It's all my fault!" If she hadn't asked Peng Hao to ride a horse, Peng Mo would not have been accompanied, let alone assassinated and poisoned.
If Peng Mo was not poisoned, Peng Hao would not have to blame himself.
So it's all her fault!
Orchid had never seen Jin Roujia value a person so much, and just wanted to persuade again, she saw Jin Roujia huddled in a chair with her legs hugged, her head buried deep in her knees, and her shoulders shrugged after a while, and she fainted in the empty hall with a low cry.
Orchid couldn't help but be stunned, serving Jin Roujia for so many years, this was the first time she had seen her cry.
When the sky was bright, a horse galloped from the official road to the city gate, holding an urgent letter from Shuangxia Town in his hand, and shouted to open the door.
The man guarding the gate looked at the Dayong soldiers under the city gate, and then looked at the urgent letter in his hand, did not dare to delay, and hurriedly opened the city gate to let him go!
Chenwang's Mansion
After receiving the news, Qianmian went to Jin Xiuchen to find Wang Lu and said, "There is news from outside that King Qu and King Ning in Shuangxia Town were also assassinated yesterday, and the situation is the same as the assassins in Kyoto. ”
Wang Lu's face turned pale, and then he was surprised: "What? King Qu and King Ning were also assassinated?"
Thousand Faces was also surprised when she first heard the news, but the news was brought back by Qi Mu, so she must not be wrong. "Two days ago, the princess sent Qi Mu to Shuangxia Town, Qi Mu was still in the town when the incident happened, and the information was very reliable. ”
Wang Lu naturally trusted the news brought back by Qi Mu, but this news was really shocking, and he frowned: "Who can make such a big move? Dare to assassinate the five princes of Dayong at the same time!"
Yes, it was not only Jin Yanchen Peng Mo and others who were attacked yesterday, but also His Royal Highness King Gong in Beijing, His Royal Highness King Jin, His Royal Highness King Qu Wang and His Royal Highness King Ning in Shuangxia Town, they were all attacked by unknown black-clothed people at the same time.
Thousand Faces pointed in the direction of the palace, guessing carefully. "Who is it?"
After all, assassinating five princes at the same time is not something ordinary people can do, but if it is the lord of a country, it is much easier.
What a powerful and magnificent family, all of them are small and fragile against the previous country!
Wang Lu frowned when he heard this, and then shook his head, this is not something they can guess!
It's just that this imperial city is too unstable!
looked at the sky that was about to brighten, and said, "Your Highness hasn't woken up yet, you go and send a message to the blue bird in the fiefdom to let him do it that day..." Before he finished speaking, he heard Jin Xiuchen's voice in the inner room.
"Wang Lu... ”
The voice was erratic, and there was a clear lack of energy.
When the two of them heard this, they were overjoyed, and they hurriedly finished talking, and walked into the inner room, and sure enough, they saw that Jin Yanchen had already sat up, half leaning on the bedpost, rubbing his forehead with difficulty.
Wang Lu recited the blessing of the Buddha in his heart, approached and asked, "Your Highness, what do you think?"
Qianmian also followed, and saw that Jin Yanchen's face was not very good, and said, "Go down to Xuan Imperial Doctor." After saying that, he hurried out.
Jin Xiuchen's head was a little dull, his ears were buzzing, he shook his head, and the dull feeling was slightly better.
His thoughts returned to his brain, and he suddenly remembered what happened in the suburbs of Beijing yesterday, and his heart froze, and he looked up at Wang Lu and asked, "How is Peng Mo? What happened to Qi Xin?" After falling into a coma, how was Peng Mo rescued?
Wang Lu looked at Jin Yanchen with an anxious face, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, don't worry, the princess has already returned to the General's Mansion." ”
Jin Yanchen's expression did not relax, and he frowned: "But is it safe to return home?"
In the face of the most vicious assassin, she can neither know martial arts nor let him go, how helpless and frightened should she be?
He was distressed again.
Wang Lu knew that Jin Yanchen attached great importance to Peng Mo, if he knew the real cause of Peng Mo's poisoning now, wouldn't he be annoyed and blame himself? This would inevitably affect the recovery of his body!
After thinking for a moment, he said: "The princess has been poisoned like Her Royal Highness, and now the imperial doctor Wu in the palace is treating you, the princess, and Qi Xin." ”
"Was she poisoned?" Jin Yanchen hurriedly turned over and got out of bed when he heard this, and the wound on his chest was a screaming pain, accompanied by a feeling of dizziness in his head, and he stumbled and almost fell.
Wang Lu quickly supported Jin Yanchen with his hand, worried in his heart, and frowned: "Your Highness, you need to rest more now." ”
Jin Yanchen rubbed his head, suppressed the unexplained depression in his heart, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and asked in a deep voice: "What happened to the princess?
When Wang Lu saw Jin Yanchen like this, he didn't dare to tell the truth, so he avoided the important and said lightly: "The princess's condition is not serious, Imperial Doctor Wu has found a way to detoxify, and she will definitely recover after a period of rest." ”
Jin Yanchen frowned, annoyed in his heart, he still let her be injured, under his eyelids!
"Wechen has seen His Royal Highness King Chen. When Imperial Physician Wu heard that Jin Yanchen had woken up, he was overjoyed and trotted all the way over.
He came on the emperor's order, if he can successfully save Jin Yanchen and Peng Mo, it will be fine, if he fails to save the two, I am afraid that this head will have to move!
At this moment, seeing Jin Yanchen wake up, he breathed a sigh of relief, and half of his hanging heart fell.
Jin Yanchen got up and came to the outer room, chose a chair to sit down at random, and said in a light tone: "Imperial Doctor Wu doesn't have to be polite. ”
Imperial Doctor Wu didn't care about Jin Yanchen's attitude, followed him to the outer room, and said, "Weichen wants to give the prince a pulse, I don't know if the prince is convenient now?"
Jin Yanchen nodded, rolled up his sleeves and exposed his wrists.
Imperial Doctor Wu hurriedly stepped forward and pointed at Jin Yanchen's wrist, concentrating on the pulse.
"How is Miss Peng Si?" Jin Yanchen frowned slightly, and his eyes were a little dull.
The fact that he was able to come here so quickly means that he stayed in the mansion last night, but King Chen's Mansion is still some distance away from the General's Mansion, if there is anything unusual about Peng Mo, can he rush over in time?
Imperial Doctor Wu withdrew his hand, and when he heard Jin Yanchen ask, he thought of Peng Mo's poisoning for him, and he knew it in his heart, and bowed his head and said respectfully: "Back to the prince's words, although Miss Peng Si is poisoned in the viscera, spleen and stomach, it is a little more difficult to get rid of the poison, but fortunately, Weichen has found a way to detoxify, and Miss Peng Si will definitely be cured." ”
"Poison in the viscera, spleen and stomach?" Jin Yanchen was puzzled, what does it mean that poison is in the viscera, spleen and stomach? Could it be that Mo'er was not poisoned by a poisoned arrow in the back?
Thinking of this, Jin Yanchen's heart seemed to ache as if it was burning.
Imperial Doctor Wu saw that Jin Yanchen's face was not good, and his attitude was more cautious, and said: "Yes, when Miss Peng Si sucked out the toxin from the wound on your upper arm, she accidentally ingested a little, so the poison was in the viscera, spleen and stomach. ”
Jin Yanchen was stunned when he heard this, his pupils shrank, and his fists clenched a little subconsciously, but he covered it up well and didn't show it at all.
Wang Lu's forehead jumped, this Imperial Doctor Wu is talking a lot at this time.
Jin Yanchen glanced at Wang Lu, lowered his sleeves, lowered his eyebrows and asked lightly, "How is this king's injury?"
Wang Lu lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Jin Yanchen's eyes, and his heart was worried.
Imperial Physician Wu smiled on his face. "Don't worry, because Miss Peng Si removed most of the toxins for you in time, this poison has not affected your body in the slightest, and the most important thing for you now is to heal the knife wounds on your body. ”
Due to yesterday's assassination and escape, the wounds on Jin Yanchen's chest and abdomen that had just healed all collapsed, and the injuries were a few points more serious than at the beginning.
Jin Yanchen nodded. "You go to the General's Mansion, if there is a situation here, someone will call you over. The tone is clearer and more melodious, but there is no temperature at all.
Imperial Doctor Wu said so much but only got this sentence, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Weichen will go immediately." ”
It is not obvious on the face, but it is slanderous in the heart, seeing that Jin Yanchen attaches so much importance to Peng Mo, I think that the grace of this poison is in my heart.
After Imperial Doctor Wu left, the room was quiet, Wang Lu knew that he was wrong, and opened his mouth to explain, but was cut off by Jin Yanchen.
"How did I come back yesterday?" The situation before the coma was very critical, could it be that the men of the Nine Infantry men arrived in time to save them? Or did Peng Hao turn back to save them?
No, no, if someone came to the rescue in time, Peng Mo would not have taken the risk of inhaling the toxin for him!
She must have been very passive to do this! Could it be that something happened after he was unconscious?
Wang Lu said truthfully: "His Royal Highness was sent back by the third prince of Peng, and there was also Princess Roujia with him, but they were in a hurry, and they left after putting down His Highness, and their subordinates didn't have time to ask more." ”
