Zhang Tian sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the pale face of Shaochun, who was still unconscious, and his heart ached.

"Young master, the medicine has been prepared, you can go back and change your clothes first." A woman in her forties said.

She has been in the Guogong Mansion for more than ten years, and she has watched Zhang Tian grow up, and now Zhang Tian is covered in blood, and she can't help but feel distressed.

"Okay, Aunt Gui, you send two subordinates to watch Shaochun, and if there is any situation, notify me in time."

"Hey! Rest assured, I've got it all arranged. ”

Zhang Tian nodded, brushed the ends of Shaochun's messy hair, and walked back to his room.

Today's events are really strange, Zhang Tian changed his clothes, sat at the table, stared at the dancing candle flame and pondered.

The assassination in Hanyue Lake looked like a redundant move, if Li Hu had shot directly at that time, maybe he would have died in the restaurant.

And when Li Hu saw him raise his gun, he hurriedly retreated to dodge, which means that he knows the power of the pistol.

But the bald head in the restaurant is the opposite, and when he sees the pistol, he doesn't dodge it at all.

Zhang Tian frowned, and began to carefully recall all the things that had happened since he crossed into this world, and see if he could find any clues from them.

He always felt that he had missed something, but he couldn't think of it.

"Oh my God, haven't you rested yet?" An hour later, Zhang Yi walked into the room and looked at Zhang Tiandao sitting at the table.

Zhang Tian retracted his thoughts and quickly stood up, "Dad, are you back?" How's it going? ”

"Xu Wei was pressed to the prison of the Criminal Department, but he kept shouting that he was wronged, and I don't think he looked like a fake." Zhang Yi said.

Zhang Tianyi raised his eyebrows, "Criminal Department? ”

His father is a big man in the military department, how did he get people to the criminal department? He originally wanted to meet Xu Wei in person.

"Well, Your Majesty suddenly arrived and handed over the case to the Criminal Department Shangshu to supervise, and my father had no way..."Zhang Yi said helplessly.

Hearing this, a bolt of lightning crossed Zhang Tian's mind, and he instantly figured out all his doubts!

When he was attacked for the first time, the three of them came up and asked for the formula, but they didn't do it directly, and they probably didn't want his life.

But this time there is obviously a significant difference from before, whether it is bald or Li Hu, as soon as he makes a move, he is a killer move, and he is rushing to kill with one blow!

Li Hu is also a member of the Xu family, and his status in the mansion is not low, which made Zhang Tian fall into a misunderstanding from the beginning.

If Li Hu is stripped out alone, in this imperial city, there is probably only the royal family who has the ability to insert an eighth-layer master into the Xu family!

Zhang Tian's eyes lit up and he looked at his father, "Xu Wei is not the mastermind behind the scenes!" ”

"I know." Zhang Yi sat on the chair, poured a cup of herbal tea and drank it all, "The moment the emperor arrived, I guessed that he was the one behind it!" ”

Looking at the indifference on his father's face, Zhang Tian asked the doubts in his heart, "But why does the emperor want me to die?" ”

Zhang Yi chuckled, his son's face did not show surprise, and it seemed that he had guessed it.

He suddenly found that he couldn't understand Zhang Tian anymore, was the young man in front of him really the Zhang family who was arrogant, lazy, and greedy for pleasure?

Or is the son like this, and he used to deliberately disguise himself as a gentleman?

"Do you know who persuaded Your Majesty to ask you for a lipstick formula?"

Zhang Tian was stunned, "It should be Prime Minister Xu Che, right?" ”

"That's right, but there's another one, and that person is His Royal Highness the Third Prince!"

"The Third Prince?!"

Looking at Zhang Tian puzzled, Zhang Yi nodded and said: "The third prince is quite ambitious, he wants to inherit the throne all day long, and he is also close to Xu Che in the court.

When the emperor Qingli was a person who paid great attention to reputation, but this time he pulled down his face and asked you for a formula, it is indeed because of the drought and war in the east for many years, and the treasury has been empty.

If there is no way to raise enough military salaries and food, the frontier will collapse, and compared with face, the emperor obviously cares about this country!

It just so happened that your lipstick came out at this time, which made him see hope, and the prime minister and the third prince took the lead, so there was a matter of asking you for the formula. ”

"But I not only gave the emperor the formula, but also sent all the factories and shops, why did he..."

Father said that the emperor attaches great importance to reputation, and Zhang Tian gave everything to the emperor, and the people in the city who know the reason for this will naturally chew their tongues frantically behind their backs.

In order to stop his tongue, the emperor will naturally find a way to get rid of him, as long as he dies, it won't be long before no one remembers that the lipstick was invented by him Zhang Tian.

"It seems that you have figured it out, Tian'er, you are much smarter than your father imagined!" knew that the emperor was going to kill Zhang Tian, but Zhang Yi did not have the slightest anger on his face, but laughed instead.

"Then Li Hu should also be the dark line that the emperor planted in the Xu Mansion, he moved Li Hu to kill you, one is to hide people's eyes, and the other is to remind the prime minister, don't get too close to the third prince.

Therefore, the emperor handed over the lipstick business that the three princes had worked so hard to ask for to take care of the five princes who had no intention of taking care of the throne. Zhang Yi continued.

Zhang Tian nodded, "Father, you don't seem to be worried at all?" ”

"I am naturally worried about my father, so I will return to the frontier with my troops tomorrow, and the emperor will naturally not trouble you again." Zhang Yi smiled, and his resolute face rarely showed a trace of gentleness.

Zhang Tian was stunned, "You want to go back to the front line?" But if you're gone, wouldn't I be more dangerous? ”

"No, he will definitely let you live, now seventy percent of the troops in the east are on the border, and they are all under my control!

If you die, Qingli will understand what price to pay! Zhang Yi's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice.

Seeing the cold light in Zhang Yi's eyes, Zhang Tian said in his heart: "Father, everyone in the city says that your return this time is Your Majesty's will, is there any hidden meaning in this?" ”

Zhang Yi looked a little hesitant, and only said after a while: "A few months ago, I was seriously injured, and my strength was not one in ten, so I returned to the imperial city to recuperate.

The emperor naturally knew about this, he thought that I would not be able to restore my cultivation, which is why he dared to send someone to kill you! ”

Zhang Tian was a little shocked, his father was named the first god of war in the east, it was not blown out, it was killed by the long sword in his hand!

There is such a strong person in the neighboring country, can he hurt his father?

His father's words also made Zhang Tian wake up a little, and Zhang Yi never stopped cultivating in his memory.

But this time my father came back, except for beating himself every day recently, I haven't seen him practice once!

Subsequently, Zhang Tian asked a lot more, but Zhang Yi kept silent, obviously there was a secret in it that he didn't want him to know...

For a long night, Zhang Tian tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep, and his mind kept recalling the words his father told him.

Zhang Yi is stern on the surface, but he actually cares about him very much in his heart.

On Earth, Zhang Tian is just an orphan without a father and mother, and it is the first time he feels this so-called feeling of affection.

With a chaotic mind in his head, as if there was a whole football team playing in it, he simply got up from the bed, pushed open the door, and walked to Shaochun's room.
