Cui Qi bypassed the screen, grabbed the long sword hanging on the wall, and asked with a cold attitude: "Say, who is the mastermind behind you?" You followed me all the way from Kyoto to here? ”

The two listened to Cui Qi's questioning, and they were both stunned.

The eldest lady obviously regarded them as the enemies of Commander Cui and came to trouble Cui Qi.

"Less nonsense, we're just looking for someone, and an outsider has just entered here?"

"Humph!" Cui Qi sneered, unsheathed his long sword, and asked, "If you want to fight, just fight, don't find some inexplicable excuses!" ”

The two were still in a stalemate, when they heard an accomplice shouting outside the door:

"Come out, there!"

At the same time, the guards of Washington also rushed over, and a group of people in the black pressure rushed into the courtyard with torches in their hands.

"Bold Assassin!"

Before the butler could finish his sentence, he watched as the three Assassins leaped onto the beam and vanished.

The housekeeper was so angry that he stomped his feet and said hurriedly: "Chase!" Don't let go of a single one! ”

The guards behind him marched out of the courtyard with torches.

The housekeeper nervously walked up to Cui Qi and asked with concern: "Miss, are you okay?" ”

Cui Qi snorted coldly and put his sword into the sheath, "Hmph, it's not so easy to kill me!" Go down first. ”

The butler nodded respectfully and withdrew.

Miss's father can't be messed with by a little person like them, and Miss's okay means that their lives are fine.

The moment he turned around, the butler's face suddenly became hideous.

Damn, those gangsters must not be caught by him, he will be scared out of his soul, see if he will pick their skin!

"Shen Yue, go get another bucket of warm water."

After everyone left the courtyard, Cui Qi instructed Shen Yue.

Shen Yue nodded, "Miss, are you safe here?" ”

"Don't worry, just tell you to go!"

After Cui Qi finished speaking, she turned around and walked into the house and closed the door.

Hurriedly came to the barrel and said softly, "Lord Shen, you can come out." ”

With a "bang", Shen Yu suddenly got up from the barrel, and in the bath water that was still carrying the woman's fragrance a moment ago, his eyes were already red, and he was stained with blood!

Cui Qi saw at a glance that Shen Yu's face was even paler than before, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "Lord Shen, how are you?" ”

"Poison-" said the last word weakly, Shen Yu's eyelids sank, and he fell towards Cui Qi slowly.

Poisoned?

Cui Qi dragged Shen Yu's unconscious body, placed the person on his bed, and carefully examined the wounds on his body.

Only then did I find that on a two-inch-long wound on the back, black blood was still flowing.

Biting her lower lip, she was hesitating to see the doctor when she closed her eyes and leaned over the wound.

……

Xie Yunshen circled Qingchuan for a whole circle, and when he got rid of the people behind him and returned to Washington, the scene in front of him made him stunned.

"Looking for a doctor?"

Shen Yu, who was lying quietly on the bed, was naked, wrapped in layers of gauze, and his face was still extremely white, but his breath was much more stable than that.

Cui Qifu bowed, shook his head slightly, and said, "For fear of attracting the attention of others, I only helped Lord Shen take out the toxin from the wound and apply some gold sore medicine." ”

"Take out the toxin?"

Breaking into a woman's boudoir late at night is rude.

Xie Yunyan stood at the door from afar, raised his eyes to look at Cui Qi, and found that her lips were slightly red and swollen, with faint black and purple spots, and hurriedly asked, "Miss Cui, you-"

Cui Qi hung her head shyly, not daring to look at Xie Yunyan's eyes, and only said: "It's important to save people, and I hope that Lord Xie won't tell Lord Shen." ”

Xie Yunyan was just a little surprised by Cui Qi's actions, it was about the innocence of the woman, so he would naturally keep his mouth shut.

"The toxin has invaded the body, I'm afraid it can't be removed so easily, if Lord Xie can trust the courtier, can I find a doctor to show Lord Shen?"

Cui Qi was cautious and tempted, for fear that he would delay Xie Yunyan's major event, and delay Lord Shen's life.

Xie Yunyan nodded, "Things are not simple, this official still has urgent matters to go out of the city, I wonder if Miss Cui can take care of Brother Shen?" ”

"How long?" Cui Qi wasn't sure how long Shen Yu would wake up, but she was undoubtedly going to leave Qingchuan and return to Kyoto after half a month.

Xie Yunyan said: "This official wants to go out of the city to meet the soldiers and horses of the Yang City Lord, I wonder if the girl can be convenient?" ”

In the small city of Qingchuan, if you can have a rich village and dare to collect a large amount of silver taels from unknown sources, Xie Yunyan has lost trust in local officials.

Moreover, if you want to arrest so many people with martial arts, it is impossible to do without a few people.

The pony went to borrow troops, and a large number of men must still be on their way.

The situation was urgent, and Xie Yunyan couldn't wait for a moment, for fear that the silver would slip away under his eyelids, so he hurried out of the city to meet City Lord Yang.

Xie Yunyan looked at Cui Qi expectantly, it was really inappropriate to place a man in a woman's boudoir.

He only remembered what Ning Shu had said, Shen Yu was in love with Gu, and it was impossible for him to think about any woman in the world.

Seeing that Cui Qi seemed to be hesitating, he assured Cui Qi:

"Brother Shen is a frank person, and this official is willing to use his own reputation to assure Miss Cui that Brother Shen is not a villain-"

"Your Excellency misunderstood!" Cui Qi hurriedly clarified: "My father sent a letter, asking me to leave for Beijing in half a month to see my relatives-"

Cui Qi said that the volume became quieter, and finally raised his head and gritted his teeth and said, "Master Xie can rest assured, before Lord Xie returns to Qingchuan, I will definitely protect Lord Shen's safety." ”

"Half a month is enough, I believe it will not delay the girl's lifelong event." Xie Yunyan glanced at Shen Yu, who was still in a coma, and said to Cui Qi:

"Someone will sneak into the mansion at dawn tomorrow to connect with the girl, if the poison on Brother Shen's body is very troublesome, you and that person will be auspicious."

"Okay, I see." Cui Qi blessed his body and said to Xie Yunyan.

Xie Yunyan solemnly thanked Cui Qi again, and then turned to leave.

After finding Xiaoma and explaining Shen Yu's current situation to Pei Feng, Xie Yunyan repeatedly advised: "As long as the silver doesn't leave that mansion, don't do it easily!" ”

Pei Xiu was full of concern for Shen Yu's safety, and asked, "Is it safe for Lord Shen to live in Washington?" ”

"Safety." Xie Yunyan's deep eyes flashed, thinking back to everything after meeting Cui Qi, especially Cui Qi's behavior of letting Shen Yu enter her bathtub to hide, and sucking out the venom for him with her mouth, she thought Cui Qi was a righteous person.

Pei Xiu said: "Okay, Master Xie, go and come back quickly!" ”

"Hmm!"

Xie Yunyan immediately set off and galloped in the dark night.

A small Qingchuan can make them suffer a big loss, and Ning Shu, who is in the midst of the border war, must be even more dangerous.

The more I thought about it, the more intense the longing in my mind became.
