The remaining two began to fight back frantically, even if they were injured, they wanted to leave wounds on Xiao Yao's body.

Xiao Yao felt that something was wrong, and said loudly: "Lu Fei, step aside!" ”

Lu Fei originally stabbed the assassin with a sword, which happened to be stuck in the bone, and he planned to fight to kill the assassin. However, when he heard Xiao Yao speak, he directly abandoned his sword and moved away.

The assassin's scimitar slipped from Lu Fei's cuffs, pounced into the air, and was killed by Xiao Yao with a sword.

The last assassin, seeing that he couldn't hurt Xiao Yao, reversed the knife edge and committed suicide directly.

After all four of them were killed, Lu Fei checked their scimitars, only to find that the scimitars were all quenched with poison, and if they were stabbed, they would be killed immediately.

Lu Fei was a little afraid, patted his heart and said, "Young Master, how could these people enter the inner courtyard?" ”

As he spoke, the soldiers who were originally in charge of inspecting the Hou Mansion arrived.

"Fourth Young Master? What's going on? ”

Xiao Yao put away his sword and said lightly: "Someone assassinated me, you guys should check carefully, how did they get in." ”

"Yes."

Xiao Yao continued to go to the study and told Wei Yuanhou about the poison of the dream grass in his grandmother.

Wei Yuanhou immediately sent someone to find an old man who could understand the Dream Grass, and if he knew what poison it was, he could prescribe the right medicine. As long as the solution is correct, there is no danger to life.

At the same time, the Marquis of Wei Yuan transferred two teams of personal guards to strengthen the patrol of the mansion and send people to track down where the assassins came from.

And Zhou has already started the next step.

In the evening, Zimei boiled snow lotus stewed bird's nest in the small kitchen, and on the way back, she heard a voice from the corner.

Curious, I stopped and listened carefully.

The sound of the wind drifted along with the words: "I heard that the old department of the second lady has often wandered outside the Orchid Garden recently. ”

"Why did they go to Orchid Garden?"

"You're stupid! The second lady gave birth to the eldest young master, the second young master, and the third young master, if Mrs. Hou went, she might be corrected. ”

"But isn't the second lady grounded?"

"Are you stupid? Can you be banned for the rest of your life? ”

……

Zimei was secretly frightened, tiptoed around the outside, and slipped back to Qingbo Temple. Then hurry up and tell Gu Fanghua the news.

"They want to assassinate Madame Hou?"

Although Gu Fanghua felt a little strange, he still didn't dare to take the risk, and said after a while: "Call Xiao Yuanzi and Xiao Manzi, and let's go find Xiao Yao together." ”

Father-in-law Qian also insisted on going, but Gu Fanghua did not refuse, but persuaded Zhong Taojiao, who wanted to go together.

"Jiaojiao, don't go, there are Yan Changxin and the second brother in this courtyard, they have no combat effectiveness, the Royal Forest Army is in the outer courtyard, I am afraid that someone will sneak attack." I'll leave it to you and Brother Zhong here, don't let Yan Shaoxun have an accident. ”

Zhong Taojiao divided the weight, and looked at Gu Fanghua's rich father-in-law, so she gave up, returned to the house, and secretly raised her vigilance.

Gu Fanghua asked the two of them on the road, and then he knew that Xiao Yao was still in Kangning Hospital.

The group walked into Kangning Courtyard with lanterns, and saw that Xiao Yao and Wei Yuanhou were both in front of the bed of the Fuling County Lord, but the Fuling County Lord was still unconscious.

"County Lord, it's dark this day, why did you come here in person?"

Gu Fanghua glanced at Xiao Yao, and pretended to complain: "Xiao Yao, I want to get some supper, but the ones sent by this Hou Mansion are not satisfactory, why don't you go and see it for me?" ”

Wei Yuanhou frowned slightly at Gu Fanghua's rudeness, but still said, "You go, your grandmother is here for me to guard." ”

Xiao Yao retired and left, and as soon as he and Gu Fanghua came out of the yard, she grabbed the cuffs.

Gu Fanghua tugged on Xiao Yao's sleeve and motioned for him to lower his head. Xiao Yao didn't know why, so he bent down sideways, and Gu Fanghua whispered: "Xiao Yao, someone may want to assassinate Aunt Xie." ”

Xiao Yao's eyes changed, and his eyes, which were originally a little shy, instantly revealed a murderous aura.

"Where does the county lord know?"

"When Zimei came back, I heard about it by chance. I don't know if it's true or not, but I'm going to tell you anyway, just in case. ”

Gu Fanghua didn't hide it, since the poisoning of the Fuling County Lord, she now has no sense of security about the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. even considered whether to move to the Governor's Mansion, but he was afraid that Xiao Yao would be lonely in the Hou Mansion, and no one would help.

Xiao Yao pondered for a moment and said in a low voice, "No matter what, I will also go to Lanyuan to have a look." County Lord, you go back first, don't worry, don't come out if anything happens. ”

Gu Fanghua disagreed, and retorted: "There are Brother Zhong and Jiaojiao in Qingbo Academy, it will be fine, I will go with you to see Aunt Xie." ”

Xiao Yao still wanted to refuse, but Gu Fanghua had already gone to Lanyuan. He could only follow, and made a gesture to Lu Chang, who was guarding in Kangning Courtyard, which meant to be vigilant.

The orchid garden was originally remote, and tonight there were dark clouds covering the moon, and the little round and small man in front of him, the horn lamp in his hand was swaying, and it could be extinguished at any time.

Father-in-law Qian was already walking on Gu Fanghua's left hand, Xiao Yao was walking on her right, followed by Lu Fei and Lu Chang.

Not far ahead, the lantern swayed, and a group of people who came over seemed to be the guards patrolling the Hou Mansion.

Seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and when they were less than a zhang apart, Xiao Yao suddenly stood in front of Gu Fanghua and shouted, "Be careful!" ”

I saw that the group of people descended the mountain like fierce tigers, and they all drew their long knives and pounced, and they turned out to be assassins.

Gu Fanghua couldn't see it well, so she hid directly behind Father-in-law Qian. Look at a big rock next to it, and squat down in front of the stone to reduce the place where the body is attacked.

Xiao Yao moved his hand, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Father-in-law Qian could completely protect the Mingzhu County Lord, and he was at ease, so he was relieved to concentrate on killing the enemy.

"Don't leave it alive! Beware of their poisonous weapons! ”

As Xiao Yao calmed down, a sword cut the assassin's neck, Lu Chang and Xiao Yuanzi no longer kept their hands, and they all resorted to killing moves.

Originally, after the assassination of Xiao Yao during the day, the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion had already added two teams of personal guards to patrol. But the strange thing is that the fight not far from the Orchid Garden did not attract any personal rescue.

Due to the large number of assassins, it took a lot of incense to wipe them out.

Lu Chang wiped his face and said angrily: "Young Master, who did this?" Three times and twice, the Jurchens were allowed to enter the mansion to assassinate the young master, and the mansion ignored it? ”

Gu Fanghua saw that there was no danger, helped Father-in-law Qian to stand up, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that there is a collusion between thieves and Jurchens in this Hou Mansion. ”

Xiao Yao was silent for a moment, and then ordered: "Lu Fei, you wait a minute, if there are guards coming over, tell them about the situation, and then go and tell the Hou Ye." I went to see my mother first. ”

When a few people came to Lanyuan and knocked on the door, the mother-in-law guarding the door was startled, and when Xiao Yao and Gu Fanghua saw that Xie was fine, they were relieved.

Xie slept lightly, and when he saw Xiao Yao and Gu Fanghua coming over at night, he felt that something was wrong.

"Yao, Mingzhu, what's wrong? Is there something going on? I heard that my mother was poisoned, what's going on? ”
