Chapter 39 Care
Because of Gong Yunniang's sudden lucidity, it took away most of Shen Chao's attention, which also gave Yan Li and Wu Han an opportunity to take advantage of.
After the two quickly glanced at each other, they only heard Wu Han shouting at the door Qianchuan, and the next moment Qianchuan came out of the darkness, quickly and quickly solving the guards holding Qi Tanying and Tinglan.
But it also alarmed the Shen Dynasty, and seeing that Qi Tanying's master and servant were saved, he swung his sword angrily and slashed at Gong Yunniang.
At the last moment, Yan Li withdrew the long sword that was hanging on Yang Yiqun's neck, and with a twist of the hilt, he threw the long sword out with a dart throwing posture, and the long sword stabbed Shen Chao's arm.
With a clang, the sword in his hand fell to the ground.
Shen Chao was unwilling, and made a gesture to pick up the sword, but was kicked to the ground by Wu Wuhan.
Gong Yunniang was saved! Wu Han immediately stepped forward to check her physical condition.
Yan Li hurriedly went to untie Qi Tanying.
Yang Yiqun, who witnessed all these changes, saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he thought about secretly escaping. Who knew that before he reached the door, he was blocked by Qianchuan.
Yang Yiqun's legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground.
He knew that he was really done this time.
A fierce battle has ended, and there are still many things to deal with in the future. Yan Li and several of his patrolmen were injured by arrows and needed treatment, and Gong Yunniang's dying life also needed to be treated by a doctor.
In such a comparison, Qi Tanying's wind cold is mild, and after sleeping for a while, there is nothing to do.
However, Yan Li's condition was a little bad, in the previous fight, there were several knife wounds on his arm and back, and later he was hit by an arrow in the shoulder. Although the knife wound looks terrible, it is actually fine after bandaging and applying medicine.
The most serious was the arrow wound on the shoulder, which had a barb on it and was deep in the flesh. If he is careless when taking the arrow, his entire arm will be destroyed.
Fortunately, the doctor's medical skills were superb, and Yan Li's arm was saved, but he also fainted due to pain and excessive blood loss.
When Qi Tanying got up in the morning to see him, he hadn't woken up yet.
During this period, the doctor came to check the pulse again, saying that he was recovering well, but his body was a little weak and needed to recuperate for a while.
Soon after the doctor left, Yan Li woke up.
At that time, Qi Tanying was wiping his face for him, and was startled when she saw him suddenly open his eyes.
Who knew that the culprit grinned.
For the sake of him or the patient, Qi Tanying didn't care about him, her eyes fell on his chapped lips, and asked, "Do you want to drink water?" β
Yan Li nodded.
Qi Tanying turned around and went to pour water.
After returning with the water cup, she remembered that Yan Li couldn't get up, so she went to the kitchen to find a small soup spoon and fed him spoonful by spoon.
Yan Li enjoyed such considerate care very much, and for a moment, he actually hoped that his injury would heal more slowly.
When Wu Han came, Qi Tanying had just finished feeding Yan Li and was wiping the water-soaked area with a handkerchief.
Yan Li glanced at him and pretended not to see it. Qi Tanying had her back to him, so she didn't know that someone was coming.
Wu Han coughed lightly.
Only then did Qi Tanying know that someone was coming, and when she saw that it was Wu Han, she said to Yan Li: "I'll go out first." β
Yan Li gently grabbed her hand, "Are you still coming in the afternoon?" β
Qi Tanying nodded.
Yan Li smiled happily, "I'll wait for you." β
Seeing that the two of them were talking as if no one was talking, Wu Han's coughed twice more to express his dissatisfaction.
Qi Tanying went out at this time.
After she left, Wu Han's face sank, "Indulging in the love of children like this, doesn't Yan Sicheng have a future?" β
Yan Li said unhurriedly: "Xiaguan does not agree with the views of the prince. The fiancΓ© was injured and the fiancΓ©e took care of it, which was a beautiful talk of affection and righteousness, what does this have to do with the future? β
Wu Han sneered, "Since they are an unmarried couple, as long as they don't get married for a day, there will be variables, if you are so close to her, aren't you afraid of ruining her reputation?" β
Hearing this, the smile on Yan Li's face disappeared, "This is a matter between me and Ah Tan, don't bother with it." He said: "When this is over, after returning to Kyoto, I will go to Qi's house to discuss the marriage date." After the wedding date is set, the son will be informed. β
Wu Han's face was dark when he heard this, and the atmosphere in the room became stagnant.
Fortunately, Yan Li is still sensible, no matter what, Wu Han is always his own superior, even if he is dissatisfied with him, he can't hang him.
He took the initiative to ask about Wu Han's intention.
Wu Han said: "In the secret room where Gong Yunniang hid the evidence, in addition to the evidence of the Gui Party's crimes, there is also a wooden ledger. At present, Gong Yunniang has not woken up, and the origin of the wood ledger is not clear. β
"The timber ledger is related to the Tangshan Palace?"
"Yes."
After the resumption of the case of the collapse of the Jiaozhi Temple, all the evidence found in Dali Temple was not related to Gui Zhiyao, but now his account book was found in the secret room of the county magistrate of Rongyang County.
Is it really related to him, or did someone take the opportunity to plant it? It seems that there will be no answer until Gong Yunniang wakes up.
A few days later, Yan Li's injuries were well and Gong Yunniang also woke up.
After learning that Gong Yunniang had woken up, Wu Han immediately asked her about the wood ledger. Gong Yunniang looked puzzled after hearing this, and didn't seem to know what the wood ledger was.
Seeing this, Wu Han did not ask again, but verified with her the number and content of the evidence of the Cangzhou Gui Party. Gong Yunniang held on to the spirit and finished the inspection, and there was nothing missing.
Wu Han knew it in his heart.
The next day, he left for Binyang Mansion in Cangzhou to meet Li Wei, the overseer of Binyang Mansion. Before coming to Cangzhou, Emperor Yuanhe gave Wu Han a secret decree, and if necessary, he could borrow troops from Binyang Mansion with a secret decree.
Gui thieves are rampant, and if you go directly to Cangzhou to get people, it will inevitably be a vicious battle. If Binyang Mansion is willing to send troops, it will be much easier to catch the thief.
After Li Wei, the overseer of Binyang Mansion, saw Emperor Yuanhe's secret decree, he happily lent 500 people to Wu Han. Three days later, Wu Han led the Binyang army to Cangzhou to arrest Gui Zhiyao and his henchmen.
Gui Zhiyao saw that the general trend had gone, so he had to be arrested, and the corrupt forces in Cangzhou, who were in cahoots with him, were also uprooted, and this news shocked the court and outside.
In order to stabilize the situation in Cangzhou, Emperor Yuan He quickly appointed temporary officials to Cangzhou to take up their posts, and after they arrived, Gui Zhiyao and other criminals were escorted back to Beijing for trial.
I left Beijing in July and returned to Kyoto in mid-October.
After Yan Li sent Qi Tanying back to Qi's house, he immediately followed Wu Han to the East Palace to meet the prince.
He summarized the details of the collapse of the Jiaozhi Hall and the corruption case of Gui Zhiyao in Cangzhou, and reported them to the prince one by one, and the more the prince listened, the more angry he became.
At this moment, Wu Han received a surprise message.
"Your Highness, Gui Zhiyao committed suicide after leaving a confession."
The prince was stunned for a moment, and his face changed instantly, "Did you really commit suicide?" β
Wu Han said: "The body of Dali Temple has been roughly examined, and no traces of his murder have been found for the time being. After speaking, he presented Gui Zhiyao's confession sent by Qianchuan.
After the prince quickly read the confession, his expression froze, "Let's go, take the confession to see my father." β
When the group just walked outside the Qianyuan Palace, someone outside the Qianyuan Hall arrived one step earlier than him. The person who came was the mother of King Qian, a concubine from the Marquis of Wu'an.
Concubine Shu, who likes brocade clothes and gorgeous clothes on weekdays, took off the golden hairpin and jade ring at this moment, and knelt outside the Qianyuan Hall in a plain dress and with a sad expression.
The prince couldn't help laughing, it was worthy of the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, and the news was really well-informed.
Concubine Shu also saw the prince, and when her eyes fell on the brocade box held in Yang Rongbao's hand, her expression changed a few times.
The prince glanced at her with a smile, and then took Yang Rongbao into the Qianyuan Palace. Concubine Shu looked at his back, and her face instantly turned like ice.
