Chapter 18: The Trustee is not human

A group of black-clothed masked people suddenly flew up in the river, all holding long swords, and stabbed at Si Ruchen with a clear goal. Everything happened too quickly and suddenly, Si Ruxian stood between Si Ruchen and Feng Mei'er, watching two swords stab at Si Ruchen, and the other two swords stabbed at Feng Mei'er. He glanced at Feng Mei'er, and decisively pounced on Si Ruchen's side, blocking the attack of the two assassins and relieving Si Ruchen's danger.

Feng Mei'er was about to make a move to block, but she avoided it when the long sword stabbed her, and she was hit by a sword in her arm, and the blood immediately stained her clothes. Wen Fengming, who saw this scene, exclaimed, "Sister Mei'er......"

Hearing Wen Fengming's exclamation, a person ran out of the Xiangfu painting boat, Wen Fengming saw a flower in front of him, and a white shadow skimmed by. Her gaze followed the white shadow, which leaped to Feng Mei'er's side, blocking the assassins who were approaching her one by one, and then hugged her as she was shaky.

Wen Fengming's eyes widened and he muttered, "Brother......"

Feng Mei'er covered her wound, and her two eyebrows were wrinkled together in pain. At this time, there were still people who remembered her, and she couldn't help but look up at the person who hugged her.

She also knows this person, he is Wen Moheng, the elder brother of Wen Fengming's mother. Because she had too little contact, she only heard that he was both civil and military, and he was obsessed with the five elements and military books.

At his age, he should serve the country above the court, and he doesn't seem to have heard of him having an official status. In the past, all she cared about was that one person, what did other people have to do with her? Now is not what it used to be, she has to understand the current situation in the court in order to take every step. Because, she can't afford to lose anymore, and she won't be allowed to lose!

Wen Moheng glanced at Feng Mei'er's injured arm, swept her face, and couldn't help but be stunned. Although he rarely goes out, he has also seen Feng Mei'er and vaguely remembers her temperament.

When I saw him today, it made him feel like an accident. Remembering what her sister said not long ago, she fell into the water and forgot about the past. Now that I look at it, it's really different from before.

The stubbornness and arrogance between the eyebrows and eyes are pitiful for no reason. When he looked up, he saw Si Ruxian fighting with the assassin and protecting Si Ruchen behind him. He sighed slightly, at this distance, Si Ruxian completely ignored her life and death, she was about to marry such a person, what happiness could she have!

After all, it had nothing to do with him, Wen Moheng lowered his head and asked, "How is Miss Feng's injury?" Why don't Mo Heng send you back to the shore first, and you take the carriage back to the house to bandage your wounds first? ”

Feng Mei'er shook her head, left Wen Moheng's embrace, and bowed to him, "Thank you for the rescue of the eldest prince." The emperor is not out of danger yet, how dare the courtiers and courtiers leave first? Don't worry about me, let's go and escort me! ”

Feng Mei'er didn't want to leave, and Wen Moheng didn't want to say anything, so she had to nod and walk towards Si Ruchen.

There are eight black-clothed masked assassins, all of whom are extraordinary in martial arts. It's a pity that they ran into Si Ruxian and all fell to the ground.

As Si Ruxian regained his momentum, the assassins were dying of convulsions with black blood flowing from the corners of their mouths. Si Ruchen, who was hiding on the side, looked at the assassin's corpse and looked up at his boss Ruxian's eyes, which was meaningful.

glanced at the people in the painting boat, and then saw Feng Mei'er holding her arm. Si Ruchen ordered: "Turn around immediately and return to the shore!" ”

After receiving the emperor's command, the slave turned around and went straight to the loop. Back on the shore, the Xiangfu painting boat also arrived, Wen Fengming ran down the painting boat and went straight to Feng Meier, half-hugged her and asked with concern, Feng Meier felt dizzy and weak, so she had to shake her head and nod to answer her.

Seeing this, Wen Fengming helped her to Si Ruchen, leaned over and said, "Courtier Wen Fengming please ask the emperor to be safe." Please also ask the emperor to be tolerant, Miss Feng of the Shuai Mansion was injured, and I implore the emperor's grace and quasi-ministers to send her back to the house for treatment! ”

Feng Mei'er's head was drooping at the moment, leaning in Wen Fengming's arms, and she seemed to be injured a lot. Si Ruchen shook his head and replied: "Today is the Cold Food Festival, King Xian and Miss Feng are going to get married in a few days, and the envoys sent by other countries to congratulate them have arrived. In this palace banquet tonight, King Xian and Miss Feng must appear.

It's better to pass on my message, and Doctor Xuan will come over to treat Miss Feng. ”

Helpless, Wen Fengming had to help Feng Mei'er retreat to the side and wait.

The others rushed to hear the news, but they were stopped by the guards a hundred steps away, and Si Ruchen swept everyone lightly, without planning to summon them. His gaze turned to Si Ruxian and Wen Moheng, and finally fell on Si Ruxian's body, and said, "Although the Emperor Xian's brother has a meritorious role in saving the driver this time, these assassins appeared near your painting boat after all. Now, they have all bitten the poison sacs hidden in their teeth and died of poison, and they cannot be verified for a while. Lest the important ministers criticize, I plan to investigate this matter first, and then talk about meritorious deeds, what does the virtuous emperor's brother think? ”

Si Ruxian leaned over and said, "The imperial brother is wise and wise, and the younger brother has nothing to say." ”

After receiving Si Ruxian's answer, Si Ruchen turned his gaze to Wen Moheng and said, "In the early years, I heard that your father said that you don't like to be admitted to the office, and you think that you were also uncertain at the beginning. You can also be regarded as a meritorious person this time, so go to the ministry tomorrow to take office. In the future, serve your family and country well, and I will naturally not treat you badly. ”

Wen Moheng did not refuse the official this time, stepped forward to face Si Ruchen, bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen!" ”

Wen Moheng once again refreshed Wen Fengming's perception of him. Today, her brother has repeatedly made exceptions, and he even agreed to enter the court as an official. She must look for an opportunity to ask clearly.

Soon, the imperial doctor came, bandaged Feng Meier's wound, told her to recuperate, and handed over.

After the assassin's incident, Si Ruchen did not dare to continue to serve and summoned the nearest military camp to come and escort him.

Not long after, a team of several hundred ironclad soldiers rushed to Qinghe. The leader was a man thirty miles away, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Si Ruchen was safe and sound. bowed his head and pleaded guilty: "The minister Zuoli is late to save the driver, and I ask the emperor to forgive the sin!" ”

Si Ruchen said with a smile: "I went out on a trip and didn't tell Aiqing, what is Aiqing's crime?" Hurry up, let's go back to the palace! ”

After the words fell, Si Ruchen stood up and walked out of the painting boat, and the others followed behind him.

In the carriage, Feng Mei'er and Wen Fengming sat together, Wen Fengming hesitated for a while before saying, "Sister Feng, seeing that you are about to marry King Xian, today's scene is really shocking." You~ Are you unhappy in your heart? ”

Feng Mei'er shook her head with a smile on her lips, "Mei'er knows Sister Feng's intentions, it's just that I'm afraid that I feel that I am entrusted to someone else, and I feel sad in my heart." In fact, the prince was born in the emperor's family, so he couldn't be emotional. He saved the emperor with me today, and I really didn't feel sad at all. You and I were born in the official family, and these simple truths were understood at a very young age, didn't we? ”
