The answer is already there.

In addition to Chen Yu, who else will there be?

Xue Ji looked down at the wound that was still bleeding, and tore off the strip of cloth and tied it tightly. It's just, looking at it, I can't help but smile bitterly.

If it was really Chen Yu, he would rather die under the assassin's sword.

They have already parted ways and each is their master, so why bother with this feeling? I can't afford it, and I can't pay it back. What's more, he deliberately let him live so deliberately, His Majesty knew who did it when he thought about it, but he was afraid that Chen Yu himself would not be able to protect it......

Xue Ji sighed, raised his head and looked around, the horse was given to His Majesty, at this time there was only the body of the carriage that had been broken on the road, how could he go back?

Besides, will His Majesty wait for him in Xucheng? After thinking about it, he unconsciously laughed at himself, it stands to reason that he is one person against several people, and he should have died without a place to bury, how could His Majesty still have expectations for him.

At this time, it was all over the night, and suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves behind him, Xue Ji looked back, the cart and horse were pulling a full load of goods, thinking that it should be a merchant coming and going to Xucheng. It's not easy to meet a passing merchant at night, and if he is allowed to go, he may not know when the next one will appear.

Xue Ji took a few steps forward and beckoned with difficulty. "Little brother! Stop!"

The man holding the rope in the car was startled by the bloodied figure that suddenly appeared, grabbed the reins violently, held the lantern beside him in front of him, and rubbed his eyes to look at it. I was taken aback by this.

"You're ...... Who's messing with someone?"

To tell the truth, I can't tell you, it's all made up with one mouth. Xue Ji smiled bitterly and said, "The most difficult thing to prevent is the person who is close to you, if you meet someone who is not ladylike and has fallen to this point, the little brother must be a kind-hearted person, can you take me along?"

The man was still a little vigilant, looked Xue Ji up and down, and said suspiciously, "If I help you, won't the person who wants to take your life come to take revenge on me?"

"No, definitely not!" Xue Ji said categorically: "You just take me to the gate of Xucheng in front, if you don't say that I don't speak, who can know?"

The man said, "Why should I help you for no reason?"

Xue Ji pondered for a moment and took out a few silver tickets from his body. "So much, is it enough?"

It is said that businessmen are heavy on profits, and they only have money in their eyes, who can not get along with silver tickets? The man took it and looked at it twice, and chuckled, "Your enemy really doesn't have the brains to let you leave so many things." After that, he put the silver ticket in his bag and tilted his head behind him: "Get in the car."

Xue Ji was sitting in the carriage between the goods bumped by the carriage, and the wheels passed over the gravel and dust on the road, making a slight sound. The breeze blows in front of you, and it is rare to feel a little cool on this midsummer night.

It was only at this time that the wounds on his arms and shoulders began to cry out for pain, and Xue Ji sat up slightly straighter to avoid the wounds touching the goods on the side.

Originally, it was not far from Xu Cheng, and it was there after a while.

"Hey, it's time for you to get out of the car."

Xue Jifang was drowsy, was pushed by this person, and suddenly woke up. When I opened my eyes and looked around, there was the gate of Xu Cheng in front of me.

"Thank you, brother, for leaving."

As expected, Xue Ji's bloodstained body was stopped as soon as he arrived at the city gate.

"Who!"

The token of customs clearance was in Qin Xu's hands, and at this time, Xue Ji only had a piece of the Xue family's jade pendant, as well as a few stacks of silver tickets, and two bags of broken silver.

This is difficult, the Xue family's jade pendant is not easy to use here, and it is not reliable to buy this soldier who guards the city with silver......

Xue Ji turned around and went to the merchant in the back.

"Brother, can you do me another favor?"

The man's face was immediately full of vigilance: "I'll only send you here, I don't care about anything else."

Xue Ji smiled helplessly: "You see that I don't have a shut-in here, can you give me another ride?" Just enter the city."

"Impossible, you can figure it out on your own, don't delay my efforts."

As soon as the words fell, Xue Ji tightly grabbed the sleeve of his left arm. "Wait a minute, it's okay if you don't take me in, help me carry something."

Is it okay?"

The man frowned, "What is it?"

Xue Ji took off the jade pendant on his waist, hesitated for a moment, and handed it to him: "You send this to the Xue family's cloth shop, and let the shopkeeper there come out to pick me up."

The jade pendant with white jade texture is shiny and crystal under the moonlight, and a Xue character on it dazzles people's eyes.

"You, are you from the Xue family?"

The Xue family has been in business for generations, and the business is all over the world, and they are good friends with major families, and there is a second-grade master Shangshu Ling Xue Ji, and it is not uncommon for businessmen to know the Xue family.

Xue Ji showed him this thing, somewhat with the intention of deterring him.

"Fang Cai didn't mean to hide it from his brother, he was really embarrassed to lose face to his family."

Sure enough, as soon as this thing was revealed, the businessman's attitude changed a lot, there was a little more smile in his eyebrows and eyes, and his tone was much softened, he carefully handed over the jade pendant to Xue Ji, and then said, "Don't be so troublesome, get in the car, I'll take you along."

Obviously, it was all expected, but Xue Ji pretended to be surprised: "You're not afraid of being implicated by me?"

The man hurriedly laughed and said, "How come, I see that your enemy is also blind, and even the Xue family dares to provoke it. I said that since you are a member of the Xue family, why don't you tell that, that Shangshu Ling Xue when this kind of thing happens, what are you afraid of with him!"

Xue Ji secretly said in his heart, you don't know, this is Master Xue of Shangshu Ling in front of you. On his face, he smiled cooperatively: "What I said is that I also think that if I am desperate, I will go to Lord Xue for help."

The two entered the city, and when they arrived at the door of a shop, several men came around to unload the goods, shouting "Hard, hard."

It's just that these people were stunned when they saw Xue Ji sitting in the car.

"Second child, who is this—who?"

Seeing him laugh loudly, he had the intention of making a grand introduction, Xue Ji was shocked, such a big fanfare must cause trouble. So he hurriedly got out of the car and stopped him. "It doesn't have to be proclaimed, it's not a glorious thing."

The man had a look of clarity on his face, lowered his voice and muttered to his brother again.

Xue Ji was helpless, took a step back, bowed to him, and whispered, "Thank you brother this time, Xue is going to enter Beijing, so I won't stay long."

June, Beijing

After nearly two months, Qin Xu finally returned to the palace again, and Empress Xu was frightened and distressed when she saw the injuries on his body, and her tears fell down like broken threads, and she hurriedly recruited the imperial doctor to diagnose his pulse and heal his injuries.

Qin Xu Yuan didn't care much about it, thinking that he had already been on the battlefield when he was a teenager, and he had suffered a lot of knife wounds and sword wounds, so he was so weak.

Who knew that after the invited imperial doctor saw it, his face hesitated, and he stopped talking.

Qin Xu frowned slightly, looked at the wound that had just been applied with gold sore medicine and replaced with clean gauze, and asked, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

The imperial physician suddenly knelt on the ground and lowered his head in a deep voice: "Your Majesty was seriously injured and did not deal with it in time, and rushed back to the palace day and night, and the loss of qi and blood was huge, I am afraid that it was injured and ...... in the future."

Before Qin Xu could react, Empress Xu was already anxious, so anxious that she burst into tears: "What about the future? You say!"

The Imperial Doctor said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand the fatigue in the future."

Queen Xu wanted to say more, but Qin Xu had run out of patience, so she waved her hand directly to signal the person to step back, and walked to the bookcase by herself.

"Just listen to his nonsense, I know my body."

There was a letter on the table, as if it had just arrived.

Qin Xu glanced at the first line on the letter and slowly put it down again. It was already clear in his heart that this was something he had asked people to pay attention to before he left Xu Cheng, to see if Xue Ji was still there......

Xue Ji is not as close to him as Xu Yan, but he is more comfortable than Jiang Yan, it can be said that he pried the corner of the wall to snatch this person from King An, he has seen ups and downs for so many years, if it is really the end of the fate, he can't bear it.

On the way back, he thought a lot, Xue Ji didn't know martial arts, and he only had a long knife and a dagger in his hand, how could he have so many people in black in his hand?

There is little chance of survival.

I don't know how long it took, Qin Xu finally picked up the letter on the table again and looked at it carefully word by word.

In this way, the contents of the letter are both surprising and gratifying.

On the mountain road where he was assassinated that day, and among the surrounding cliffs, Xue Ji's body was not found.

In other words, Xue Ji is still alive.

Since Qin Xu picked up the letter on the table, he had a lot of thoughts, tossing and turning, and he didn't sleep all night.

Early the next morning, Qin Xu got up from the table, moved the stiff back of his neck, and then let his subordinates serve and change clothes and wear crowns. Seeing that the time had come, Qin Xu slowly walked out of the dormitory and went straight to the main hall.

In the Zichen Palace, the long-lost figure appeared above the main hall, and the officials and ministers were suddenly silent. After they were stunned for a moment, they all knelt down and bowed, accompanied by the mountain shouting long live.

"Long live Your Majesty, long live!"

"Long live Your Majesty, long live!"

"Long live Your Majesty, long live!"

Qin Xu flicked his sleeves lightly, said goodbye, and sat on the dragon chair.

When Chao Tianzi did not show up for nearly two months, Jiang Yan was so far away that he hid as a minister, it can be said that he suffered Xu Yan, only he kept holding on to the court and waiting for Qin Xu to come back.

The Manchu Dynasty is not a fool, His Majesty is missing alone, Xue Ji disappeared for two months, and both of them are sick? Still sick for two months? Who will believe it?

It's just that since His Majesty has come back today, why is Xue Ji still missing in the ranks of the hundred officials?

At this time, Cheng Buzheng couldn't hold back his mouth anymore, took two steps forward, and said in a loud voice: "I heard that Your Majesty went out of Beijing on the pretext of a serious illness and was assassinated because of this, the minister is deeply saddened!"

There is only one sentence, but anyone who understands Cheng is not surprised has already expected the follow-up.

This sentence is just the beginning, and it must be followed by a long speech......

However, no one seemed to plan to come out and interrupt him at this time. What's more, they look like they're watching a play, waiting to see how His Majesty responds.
