Chapter 3: Assassination
"I'm afraid that the son of the world can only lie on the couch in this life, the sternum has been broken, and the old man has no way to return to heaven." The words of the imperial doctor echoed in my ears for a long time.
Ji Qiang sat on the rattan chair, looking at Ji Yuanxun and Bai Shishuang's faces were heavy, although Yang'er's life was saved in this life, but he was like a living dead, and he could only be accompanied by a bed in this life, which was really unacceptable.
"Grandpa..."Bai's voice choked, that is, even she, a deep woman, understood what it meant for Ji Yang to be paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life, and the entire Guogong Mansion would have no successor to rely on in the future.
Ji Yuanxun's eyes were solemn, "We must find the murderer who poisoned Yang'er!" ”
There was silence in the hall, and after a pause for a while, Ji Qiang spoke: "Daddy, the top priority is to find someone who can cure Yang'er, even if the imperial doctor can't do it, there are still Jianghu Langzhong, there are no longer a few warlocks in this world who can do strange magic, and there will always be someone who can save Yang'er." ”
Hearing this, the Bai family also echoed, "Yes, yes, what Qiang'er said is right, Grandpa, you send a notice, those who can cure Yang'er, reward ten thousand taels, Yang'er will definitely be saved!" …”
Ji Yuanxun nodded and agreed, although there are many famous doctors in the world, there is no doubt that he is looking for a needle in a haystack, and whether he can meet someone who heals Ji Yang depends on his creation.
As soon as the notice was posted, there was an endless stream of people who came to consult the door, but there were very few people who could see the cause of Ji Yang's disease, and it was difficult to say that it was cured.
Ji Qiang was sad, sitting in Ji Yang's house, since Ji Yang knew that he couldn't get out of bed in this life, the atmosphere in the entire Xuan Pavilion was very solemn.
"Yang'er, do you want to drink some porridge? The dining room has just been filled with scallops and scallops. Ji Qiang held the porcelain bowl and handed the spoon to Ji Yang's mouth, but Ji Yang ignored it.
Ji Qiang was anxious, "Yang'er, you need to eat some..."
Ji Yang's eyes were empty, and his voice was weak: "Eldest sister, I... It's not going to be better, is it..."
Hearing the voice, Ji Qiang was like a fish in her throat, she didn't know how to comfort Ji Yang, or rather, the only comfort was that he was cured, and other surprises were just a moment of spring flowers.
Ji Qiang wanted to comfort her a few more words, but Xi'er on the side stepped forward and said, "Miss, the sixth prince is here, saying that he wants to see His Royal Highness the prince." ”
Xia Chengmu?
The porcelain bowl in Ji Qiang's hand clenched tighter, and said coldly: "Yang'er's body is weak, and she can't see anyone." ”
"Yes, but grandpa also said that you should also go to the front hall and have dinner together."
Ji Qiang got up, glanced at the distance with a faint gaze and said, "Back to my father's words, I'm not feeling well, go back to my room to rest." ”
Xi'er wondered a little in her heart, her own young lady has always been gentle towards the six princes, why is she so indifferent today.
When Ji Qiang returned to the hospital, she took a long detour, avoiding Xia Chengmu when she wanted to walk through the hall.
Heaven did not fulfill people's wishes, she and Xia Chengmu collided head-on, and he specially guarded by the fish pond, just waiting to see Ji Qiang.
"Qiang'er..." Xia Chengmu wanted to shake her hand, but she avoided her.
Xia Chengmu unconsciously clenched his palms and said, "What are your dissatisfaction with me?" ”
Ji Qiang didn't want to raise her eyes to look at him, and looked sideways at the turquoise pond on the side: "The little girl doesn't dare to be dissatisfied. ”
"Qiang'er! Her indifference and detachment, Xia Chengmu was unpredictable, "You have repeatedly avoided me when I came to the house, and you have not replied to the letters I sent you, I..."
Without waiting for Xia Chengmu to finish speaking, Ji Qiang cut off and said: "The little girl is not happy, so she will retire first, and if you are lazy, please ask the sixth prince Haihan." ”
She stopped looking at Xia Chengmu and turned to leave.
Now, she hates him.
She hated him for calculating the Ji family's organs, she hated him for being indifferent and ruthless to her, and she hated him for secretly poisoning Yang'er.
Ji Qiang clearly remembered that Xia Chengmu watched him being killed by Gu Hanyan and was unmoved.
She didn't know how much effort it took to stand calmly in front of him, the past thoughts, in the blink of an eye, drifted away like smoke, life was like a dream, but this was a nightmare for her.
Faced with Ji Qiang's extremely cold and strange attitude, Xi'er couldn't help but persuade her: "Miss... The six princes come day by day, and it's not good for you to avoid them. ”
"It's not good, it's not good, I'm me, he's him."
She was lucky that she hadn't killed him, but he would die, and he would pay for what he had done.
When he first arrived at the hospital, the little maid waiting in front of the door stepped forward and said, "Miss, there is a Taoist priest from the house, who said that he can cure the illness of the son." ”
Ji Qiang's sad face suddenly disappeared, and she hurriedly said, "Can it really be cured?" Please! ”
She went to the Xuan Pavilion to wait first, and after a while, the Taoist priest was introduced into the door by his subordinates, wearing a smoky blue gown, holding a compass in his hand, with long eyebrows and sideburns, and he was only in his early thirties.
It's just that the moment she saw him, Ji Qiang felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
"I've seen Miss Ji, I've seen the prince."
"Get up." Ji Qiang looked up and down, "Please take a look at Mr. Laofu." ”
The Taoist priest bowed down and said respectfully: "You must do your best." ”
Ji Qiang nodded, raised her hand slightly, and the servants understood, and searched the Taoist priest carefully next to each other, Ji Qiang stared at it, but did not find anything.
However, the Taoist priest was very protective of his sleeve, Ji Qiang couldn't help but be suspicious in his heart, but it was not easy to let people take off his coat openly, so he could only think that he was suspicious.
The Taoist priest entered the room, Ji Yang was taking a nap, he lifted the bed curtain to diagnose Ji Yang's pulse, Ji Qiang saw that there was nothing unusual about this Taoist priest's technique, and he did know some medical skills.
Ji Qiang asked intentionally or unintentionally, "I don't know where I grew up?" ”
The Taoist priest looked calm, "The poor Taoist travels all over the world, and there is no fixed place to live, and this time I only think it is fate to see a doctor for the prince." ”
"Where is the ancestral home of the Taoist Chief?"
"Yongcheng Cherish Spirit Mountain."
Ji Qiang's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, looked at the family on the side, and said: "Coincidentally, there is a mother-in-law next to me who is also in Yongcheng Xiling Mountain, and the boundary of Xiling Mountain is small, maybe you know." ”
His accent is not at all like that of the people of Yongcheng.
Before Ji Qiang's words fell, the Taoist priest suddenly got up, and the soft sword hidden in his sleeve sprang out like a swimming snake, stabbing straight towards Ji Yang, but the family behind him rushed forward with an arrow step and picked off the hilt of the sword in the Taoist priest's hand.
"Plop! - "The Taoist priest was subdued by the family and fell to his knees.
Ji Qiang raised the Taoist priest's chin and asked sharply: "Say!" Who sent you? ”
"I..." Before the Taoist priest could finish speaking, a stream of dark red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he fell to the ground and died.
Jia Ding stepped forward to probe the Taoist priest's snort, and said, "Miss Hui, I should have committed suicide by taking poison." ”
Ji Qiang's expression was condensed, looking at the Taoist priest who fell to the ground with a hideous face, Xia Chengmu was really in a hurry, why didn't he think about how much the Song State Mansion had done to pave the way for him when he was ruthless.
"Find out the details of this person, don't let your father and mother know about this matter."
"Yes."
"Rou'er! How is Rouer! Is there any news coming from the Xuan Pavilion? Aunt Du looked anxious, and when she saw Rou'er coming back, she pulled and asked.
