I don't know when it started, but her relationship with Bing'er has become deeper and deeper.

Bing'er shook her head, and the smile on her face turned into a crescent moon: "The slave is not tired, and she can accompany the young lady, and the slave and maid feel that it is a very happy thing." ”

"Does it still hurt?" Su Wenmei asked distressedly. She saw that Bing'er's gauze arm was still faintly bleeding, staining the clothes on the arm red.

Bing'er still shook her head stupidly: "It doesn't hurt anymore, it doesn't hurt so much after the medicine is bandaged." ”

Bing'er looked at Su Wenmei with red eyes, and suddenly remembered her mother. Once, his parents were the ones who loved him the most. But then my father had an accident and my mother died, and I came to Kyoto to join my cousin.

But who knows, my cousin gambled indiscriminately, and after a few days of missing a trace, he also sold her to the people of the Full Moon Building. If he hadn't met Miss Su, I am afraid that he would have become a money-making tool for Full Moon Tower at this moment.

Zhao Xunzhi, who was outside the door, saw this scene and left expressionlessly.

He took two of the older grandmothers of the Gu Mansion to the firewood room and began to interrogate the captured assassins.

The Assassin was awake by this time, and when he heard the door open, he watched warily at the people who had entered.

Zhao Xunzhi was still expressionless, and walked towards the assassin with a dagger in a muffled voice, the dagger in his hand was against his arm, and he slashed slowly and ruthlessly: "This is what you slashed on Miss Su and Bing'er, does it hurt?" ”

The assassin had a pained expression on his face, but he didn't say a word, even though the blood on his arm instantly stained red.

Zhao Xunzhi was not in a hurry, he raised the dagger, stabbed it down again, pierced it into the center of his thigh quickly and accurately, turned it in a circle in his hand, and quickly pulled the dagger out. The assassin's leg was bleeding instantly, and he finally couldn't help it, his thighs trembling, and his mouth made a "whine" sound.

"And that's just the beginning! I have a hundred ways to get you to confess! As he spoke, he turned around, put the bloodthirsty dagger in his hand in the tray where Grandma Sun was holding the torture tool, and wiped his hands with the handkerchief in the tray, and the two grandmothers of the Gu Mansion stepped forward with the torture tools.

Zhao Xunzhi was wearing a red brocade robe, his knuckles were clean and slender, and he looked like he was not stained with dust at the moment. Where can his current appearance be reminiscent of the bloodthirsty scene just now?

He walked out of the firewood room and closed the door of the firewood room by the way, and the firewood room was gray again in an instant.

The two grandmothers walked towards the Assassin. Now that the Assassin's hands were tied behind his back, his legs and arms were badly wounded, and he had no power to fight back, a look of horror appeared on his face.

"You don't have to be afraid, you have shed so much blood, how can you do more than blood?" Grandma Sun smiled and took out a small porcelain bottle from the tray: "This is refined salt transported from Huainan, and the price is not cheaper than Jinchuang Medicine, so it is not a grievance against you." ”

"The salt is all there, and the peppers are indispensable. In our house, all the things we use are excellent, and the chili peppers are also spicy in Shonan! The other mamma also brought a small red porcelain vase, smiling and approaching the assassin step by step.

The assassin only felt that these two grandmothers were more ruthless than Zhao Xunzhi! Frightened, he staggered backwards, but could not retreat, and finally sat down on a pile of straw, and the two grandmothers held him down, and sprinkled salt and pepper little by little on the Assassin's wound.

His legs trembled, his eyes were red with discomfort, and the expression on his mouth was distorted to the extreme, and now he really wished that people would give him a good time.

thought that it would be easy to kill a Su Wenmei, but who knew that a Zhao Xunzhi would jump out halfway! He also expected that the escaped Chunshui would bring people to save him, but he didn't know that Zhao Xunzhi had already dispatched people at this moment to strictly guard the Gu Mansion.

Zhao Xunzhi felt a little guilty, the emperor ordered himself to protect Su Wenmei, and now that Su Wenmei is injured, it is his dereliction of duty.

The next day, the old lady Gu of the Zhongwu Marquis family heard that Su Wenmei was injured, and she also brought some food to see her. In the eyes of Mrs. Su, Su Wenmei is docile and sensible, and her temperament is very similar to her deceased daughter-in-law, so she is very close to her.

And Su Wenmei, beside Mrs. Su, also felt the warmth of her relatives. So unconsciously, the two have become so close that they are like grandchildren.

Mrs. Su came, asked about Su Wenmei's injury, and talked to Su Wenmei for a while before reluctantly leaving, and invited Su Wenmei to live at Su's house before leaving, but she refused.

Mrs. Su only thought that Su Wenmei thought that she was abrupt, but Su Wenmei knew that now that she and the emperor had pushed herself to the tip of the knife. Assassins will come one day and take her life, just like yesterday on the way to the Mansion.

Su Wenmei is not a troublemaker, and she is not willing to cause trouble to the Su family because of herself.

Su Wenmei was sending Mrs. Gu away, and a family member from the Gu Mansion came over: "Miss Su, the dog caught yesterday can't stand the punishment, and it has been recruited." ”

"Who's at who's instigating?" She was unfazed on the surface, but trembling slightly in her heart.

"It's Concubine Lan."

"Concubine Lan?" Su Wenmei was a little surprised, her mind thought quickly, but she still couldn't find the slightest clue about Concubine Lan.

She didn't know Concubine Lan, but she sent someone to assassinate her, and the knife was fatal. If Zhao Xunzhi hadn't moved fast enough yesterday, I was afraid that he and Bing'er would have already been dead souls under the knife. She remembered the bleeding appearance on Bing'er's arm, and she felt a pang of distress.

"That assassin, for the time being, is being held in the firewood room, so you must keep an eye on it."

"Miss Su!" Mama Sun walked over with a panicked expression: "That assassin, was ...... ...... by Lord Zhao It's over! ”

She looked behind Grandma Sun, but saw Zhao Xunzhi also coming over, and waved her hands: "Miss Su." ”

"You!" She looked at Zhao Xunzhi and frowned, her face a little angry.

"Miss Sue." He looked up at the maids behind her. Bing'er was interested and left with the maids and Aunt Sun.

"Xunzhi kept the assassin yesterday because he wanted to give Miss Su an explanation, and he didn't want Miss Su to even know who was behind the scenes."

Su Wenmei lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then raised her head and looked at Zhao Xunzhi: "Then you killed that assassin today for the emperor's sake?!" ”

"Yes." Now the new emperor has ascended the throne and accepted the concubine not long after. Concubine Lan has committed such a thing, if the emperor does not punish her, it will be difficult to calm people's hearts; If the emperor is punished, it will inevitably end up being discordant with the monarch and ministers, and the court will be unstable, which is not the blessing of the society.

So instead of letting the emperor be in a dilemma at that time, it is better for Zhao Xun to finish off the assassin with a knife. In the final analysis, Zhao Xunzhi is still loyal to the emperor after all.

"Wen Mei!" A man's voice calling out to her sounded outside the door, it was Cheng Qian. Zhao Xunzhi and Su Wenmei hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

Cheng Qian was dressed in purple, and his face was full of anxiety. He stepped forward to help Su Wenmei: "I heard that you were injured today, so I rushed over after the court." How's it going, is the arm hurt badly? He lifted her arm to check on her injuries.

Su Wenmei grabbed her sleeves tightly to prevent him from looking, and shook her head at Cheng Qian: "Don't get in the way." Fortunately, Lord Zhao arrived in time yesterday. Otherwise, Wen Mei would probably have drunk Meng Po soup at this moment. ”

Zhao Xunzhi was a little surprised when he heard her say this, but he was also calm.

Cheng Qian glanced at Zhao Xunzhi, who was still kneeling on the ground: "You also get up." ”

"Yes."

"I heard that the assassins were caught? But who instigated it? He asked Su Wenmei.

Su Wenmei raised her head and met Cheng Qian's anxious eyes. She thought about the scene where Bing'er and the Gu family were injured yesterday, and it took a lot of effort to suppress her grievances. Zhao Xunzhi looked at Su Wenmei and didn't speak, and his heart became nervous.

"No, the assassin was unwilling to confess his mastermind and committed suicide in fear of sin." She looked into Cheng Qian's eyes and said calmly.

"That's what a cheap deal." Cheng Qian's hand stroked Su Wenmei's hair: "You are outside the palace, I really don't worry about you, and now I think about it for a while." ”

"Wen Mei." He looked at her seriously and took her hand: "Follow me into the palace, I will protect you, and I will not let you be wronged!" ”

Su Wenmei thought that she had been subjected to a series of plots outside the palace, if it weren't for Zhao Xunzhi sent by the emperor, she would have died at this moment.

Even if he enters the palace, he can at least keep himself and Bing'er safe for a while, and it will not be worse than at this moment. What's more, now that her identity is embarrassing, she is criticized for living in Gu Mansion, and Cheng Qian can be regarded as the person she likes now. She looked at Cheng Qian's serious eyes and lowered her head.

"Love at first sight, my heart is beautiful." She smiled and nodded sheepishly.

Cheng Qian was so excited, his face instantly smiled like a flower, and he couldn't wait to immediately pick up Su Wenmei and turn around.

Cheng Qian stayed in the Gu Mansion for dinner, and accompanied Su Wenmei throughout the whole process, and he felt pleasing to the eye when he looked at her now.

And Zhao Xunzhi has already carried a sack at this moment and shuttles around the palace with ease.

Su Wenmei didn't expose Concubine Lan during the day, but sold face to Zhao Xunzhi, so he decided to give a small gift to Concubine Lan, which can be regarded as a little compensation for Su Wenmei.

Night.

"Bang!" In Shulan Palace, a strange sound sounded.

Concubine Lan was drinking tea in her palace at the moment, and when she heard a sudden sound in the courtyard, she was frightened for no reason. The teacup in her hand suddenly fell to the ground, and she stepped forward to clean it up, but was stopped by Concubine Lan: "Fanjun, go out and see, what's going on outside?" ”

"Yes." The maid of the palace listened to the command, went out, and saw the * bag on the ground. The sack looked like it was filled with a person, and the surface of the bag was stained with blood, which looked a little dirty. There was a bad premonition in my heart.

She mustered up the courage to walk over and poke at the bag, but there was no sound in the bag.

Concubine Lan also went out, followed by several palace maids. When she saw this, she ordered, "Except for the spring water and the strife, you all stand down." ”

"Yes." The palace maids listened to the order and left Shulan Palace neatly.

Chunshui suppressed the strong uneasiness in his heart, and as soon as the palace maids retreated, he immediately stepped forward, untied the bag of hemp rope, and rolled up the mouth of the bag.
