Chapter 44: Yingzi Chu is poisoned

When Qin Qing saw Ding Yi, he was lying on Steward Yu's bed and fell asleep, his clothes were covered with blood, his wounds had been bandaged properly, it seemed that Steward Yu had sent someone to show him the injuries. Qin Qing carefully checked his injuries and found that there were wounds on several places on his body, some of the blood stains on his clothes had dried out and turned dark red, and some of the blood stains had not yet dried, it could be seen that he seemed to be being chased all the way, and it was not a matter of one or two days.

"How could Brother Ding be so badly injured? Did he say that something happened to Xianyang? Qin Qing frowned and asked Steward Yu, who was guarding Ding Yi's side.

Before she came to Yan Kingdom, she sent Ding Yi to Xianyang to deliver a letter, telling Yingzi Chu that after she returned from Jicheng, she immediately set about bringing back Zhao Ji's mother and son. Ding Yi was injured like this, and he didn't come thousands of miles to Jicheng to see him, so it can be seen that something big happened in Xianyang City, but is this matter related to Lu Buwei?

Since Yingzi Chu ascended the throne, he began to deliberately break away from LΓΌ Buwei's support, in the past three years, he has not seen LΓΌ Buwei make any moves, I believe that with LΓΌ Buwei's personality, he will definitely not let himself fall into trouble, it is estimated that he has already been secretly arranged, waiting for the opportunity, does LΓΌ Buwei think that the time is ripe now?

"As soon as he arrived at the inn, he fainted when he saw Wei Chun, and he didn't have time to say anything." Steward Yu was afraid of disturbing Ding Yi's rest, so he answered Qin Qing's question in a low voice: "I just invited someone to come and see it, the injuries are not very serious, they are all skin injuries, before coming to Jicheng, it is estimated that Ding Yi has bandaged the wounds by himself, and he has handled them properly, he is now asleep because he has been running all the way and has not had a good rest, and he only needs to recuperate well when he wakes up, and there is no big problem." ”

Hearing Steward Yu say that Ding Yi's life was not in danger, Qin Qing breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Can he have a letter on him?" ”

Steward Yu shook his head: "Before bandaging the wound, I turned over his clothes, and there was no letter. ”

Qin Qing secretly speculated: Could it be that Ying Zichu didn't let him bring a letter, but just sent a message? But this is not like Ying Zichu's usual style, when the word spreads to the public, it is inevitable that some things will be missed, so Ying Zichu told her important things in the form of letters. can let Ding Yi be hunted down and killed all the way, it can be seen that something big has happened, but why does Ying Zichu have no letters? Was the faith snatched from you on the way?

It seems that these questions can only be asked when Ding Yi wakes up. Qin Qing was uneasy, and instructed Steward Yu and Wei Chun to take care of Ding Yi carefully, and let them wait for Ding Yi to wake up, notify him immediately, and then go back to the room to rest.

Qin Qing returned to the room and tossed and turned all night, wondering in his mind what had happened in Xianyang. It wasn't until the early morning of the second day that Wei Chun came to inform her that Ding Yi had woken up, so he hurried over.

Ding Yi saw that Qin Qing was coming over, struggling to salute, Qin Qing stepped forward and helped him: "Brother Ding is injured, it's better to rest in bed, and those etiquettes will be waived." ”

After Steward Yu carefully helped Ding Yi up and let him lean on the bed, Qin Qing asked, "How could Brother Ding be chased and killed?" Did something happen to Xianyang? ”

Ding Yi's face was a little heavy and said: "The villain went to Xianyang to tell King Zhuang Xiang that the lady would arrange the news of saving Gongzizheng after returning to Qin." But as soon as he approached the small courtyard, he heard the sound of fighting in the courtyard, and the villain looked through the courtyard wall, only to see four masked black-clothed men besieging the two personal guards of King Zhuang Xiang. ”

Qin Qingxiu's brows furrowed, those men in black must know the identities of the guards, and even Ying Zichu's personal guards dare to kill them, presumably the masters of those men in black are not idle people.

"The villain saw that King Zhuangxiang's guards were at a disadvantage, and he was afraid that they would be captured and pulled out of the Qin Mansion, so he came to his aid and fought with the man in black." Ding Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The four black-clothed men are very strong in martial arts, and the villain and the guards of King Zhuangxiang can only barely resist for a while, when it is critical, the guards give the villain a letter, and then the two of them desperately stop the four black-clothed people, and the villain can escape and send a letter to the young lady." ”

Although Ding Yi did not describe the process of fighting in detail, his martial arts were already good, and Ying Zichu's guards were definitely not the kung fu of the three-legged cat. Although there were four men in black, they could force the guards to desperately and hurt Ding Yi so badly, Qin Qing could guess the danger in this, although Ding Yi had escaped, Qin Qing still pinched a cold sweat for the situation at that time.

Ding Yi coughed lightly, as if he was involved in the wound on his chest, and raised his hand to cover the wound with great effort and continued: "The villain has been chased and killed by people on the road, and he was afraid that the letter would be searched and taken away, which would be unfavorable to the Qin family, so he read the content of the letter, and then burned the letter, and made a big circle before he dared to enter Jicheng. ”

As she expected, Ying Zichu did ask him to bring the letter over, but the letter was burned by him, but fortunately it did not fall into the hands of the man in black. Qin Qing breathed a sigh of relief: "What did King Zhuang Xiang say in his letter?" ”

In the letter, King Zhuang Xiang did not write the names of the Qin family and the young lady, but only said that he had recently felt unwell, and the imperial doctor diagnosed him with poisoning, and the poisoning had been going on for a long time, and now there is no cure. He will die soon, I hope that the young lady will not forget what he promised him, if the young lady does not follow the previous agreement, his subordinates will tell the young lady about contacting him, and the Qin family will be destroyed at that time. ”

Ding Yi was exhausted after finishing his narration, and Qin Qing told him to rest well and called Steward Yu to her room to discuss. Back in the room, without waiting for Butler Yu to close the door, Qin Qing sat on the seat and said angrily: "What a young man Chu, when he was dying, he actually threatened the Qin family, I don't believe that after his death, someone will really say this!" ”

Steward Yu hurriedly closed the door, and then comforted Qin Qing: "Young lady, let's not take this risk." ”

After listening to Steward Yu's words, Qin Qing calmed down a little, and Yingzi Chu also had some brains, knowing that her life was not long now, and Zhao Ji's mother and son were not in Qin State, and now they were alone, and they had no worries, so they naturally dared to tear their faces with her. But she is different, she still has the safety of the Qin Mansion and the whole family to bear, she doesn't dare to take this risk, even if she is threatened, she can only endure this breath and obediently continue to do things for him.

Qin Qing exhaled deeply: "It's Qing'er who is reckless." ”

Steward Yu saw that Qin Qing had calmed down, and then said: "Yu thinks that we have been arranging for three years, and it is not difficult to take back Zhao Ji's mother and son, but King Zhuangxiang's life is not long, and if the two are settled, they still need to be discussed." ”

The problem mentioned by Steward Yu is Qin Qing's biggest headache, if Yingzi Chu dies, where will he send Zhao Ji's mother and son, can't he follow her back to the Qin family in Tong County? Zhao Zheng was the first emperor of China, and he had to find a way to get him back to the Xianyang Palace.

Qin Qing tapped his fingers on the case, thought hard for a long time, suddenly stopped the movements in his hand, as if he had thought of something, and said to Steward Yu with a smile: "Qing'er thought of a clever plan!" ”
