Although Bae Joo-hyun claimed to have given her sister the authority to deal with this sudden assassin incident, in fact, she didn't really leave it alone.

Because the murder weapon was Pei Zhuhyun's personal talisman dagger, Xu Huabiao said that he would not pursue this matter too much, but Pei Zhuhyun, as Xu Huabiao's subordinate, could not have done nothing.

Sun Na-eun, as well as Jang Won-young and Kim Min-joo, who were on duty that night, were left behind in Yingchuan.

In the name of "sorting out Bae Joo-hyun's things in Yeongcheon", and at the same time, as Bae Joo-hyun's envoy, he waited for Bae Yunjing's investigation results, and waited for Park so-young to arrange another person to send someone to Yeongcheon to invite Bae Joo-hyun out of the mountain.

In fact, it is to monitor the progress of Pei Yunjing's investigation, and at the same time report to Xu Huabiao.

Of course, this set of things was said by Pei Zhuhyun to Pei Yunjing.

For people outside the Pei family, the things said are completely different: Xu Huabiao persuaded Pei Zhuxin to serve the Son of Heaven and the queen, Pei Zhuxin was not happy, Xu Huabiao stayed at Pei's house that day, but met an assassin, Xu Huabiao was seriously injured and returned to Luoyang for treatment, Pei Zhuhyun, who was almost killed directly by the furious Lin Yun'er, swore that this matter had nothing to do with the Pei family, and was taken back to Luoyang as a hostage, Lin Yun'er arranged for three people to stay in Yingchuan to investigate the matter thoroughly......

Moreover, the speed at which this set of things came out of Yingchuan was amazingly fast.

So much so that Bae Zhuhyun arranged to go to Xuchang to invite Zhou Jieqiong, who originally planned to stay in Xuchang to help Wang Yiren prepare for Park Xiurong's post-sealing ceremony, before he could enter Xuchang City, he saw Princess Wannian who heard that Xu Huabiao was seriously injured and hurried out of the city from Xuchang.

Of course, when she saw Xu Huabiao reading with a book in her hand and a relaxed face in the carriage, Zhou Jieqiong was angry and cried.

comforting Zhou Jieqiong, who was worried about learning that she was seriously injured by the assassination, took Xu Huabiao several days.

By the time Zhou Jieqiong finally calmed down, Xu Huabiao and his party had already passed by Chen Liu.

Although Xu Huabiao couldn't ride a horse because of a "serious injury", the speed of the entire team was still amazingly fast.

The Shenji Battalion came up with the marching speed of the top grid of the single-horse configuration.

Xu Huabiao, who was sitting in the carriage, had not been driven crazy, thanks to Pei Zhuhyun's luxury carriage in Yingchuan, which was made by the Luoyang Ministry of Industry and equipped with shock-absorbing devices for Xu Huabiao's officials in the "three provinces".

Four horses, pulling Xu Huabiao, Pei Zhuxun and Zhou Jieqiong sitting in the carriage, this carriage can fully keep up with the rapid march of the Shenji Battalion.

Because the speed of the march was too fast, and according to Pei Zhuhyun, who had not helped Xu Huabiao for a long time, Xu Huabiao didn't have much to say to the people in Chen Liucheng now, so Xu Huabiao and his party didn't mean to stay in Chen Liu.

didn't even get close to Chen Liucheng, but on the side of the road, he picked up Kim Tae-yeon, who had met Li Xiuman again in Xuchang and had a wish, and went directly along the official road to Tiger Prison Pass.

And so it was, and it was a few days away.

The horse convoy also returned to Luoyang City at the fastest speed.

……

"Lord, what are you doing! Scared the hell out of me!! ”

The main hall of the Sizhou Assassin's Mansion.

It was Pei Xiuzhi who issued this question, which could not be said to be angry or ashamed.

There is some truth to this.

When Xu Huabiao and his party came to the gate of Luoyang City, it happened that Pei Xiuzhi was about to return to the city with the Shence Army that had completed today's training......

The Shence Army and the Shenji Battalion almost fought outside Luoyang City.

Fortunately, Pei Xiuzhi was sharp-eyed and saw Lin Yun'er, so he avoided the instinctive array of the Shence Army to release arrows......

"It's to look like I'm seriously injured!" Xu Huabiao smiled a little embarrassedly, "Zhuhyun's idea, so I didn't have time to send someone back to deliver the letter." ”

"Lord, are you alright?" On the side, Xian Enjing, who got the news and hurried over, answered.

"Of course it's okay, I'm in good health!" Xu Huabiao shook his head with a smile, and then glanced at the officials of the six ministries who had come to visit after hearing that Xu Huabiao had returned to the city, "Don't worry too much, I'm mainly for outsiders." ”

"That's right." Pei Zhuhyun, who was next to him, answered with a smile, and immediately attracted his attention, "When I was in Xuchang, An Junying asked the Son of Heaven for military power and wanted to attack Hanzhong, Lord Li Zhien, as the Taishou of Chang'an, theoretically wanted to support this dispatch of troops, but ...... We all know that you want us to help him? That's impossible. ”

Bae Joo-hyun's words made everyone in the hall laugh.

Just now they learned that Xu Huabiao suddenly returned to Luoyang, and they were all worried about what happened so they hurried to the Assassin's Mansion, and their mood must not be good, but when they saw the long-lost Pei Zhuhyun appear in the Assassin's Mansion, for no reason, the hearts of this group of people have settled down a lot.

As for the reason......

Is it because of habit?

"So the lord needs to pretend to be seriously injured and have no time to help An Junying in Hanzhong, so that Lord Lee Ji-eun will not be implicated because An Junying failed to attack Hanzhong." Jin Zhijing, who was silent in the corner, nodded, "Well, this idea is okay, but the problem is ...... If people think that the lord is not in good health now, they have some strange thoughts......"

"Just let them have it!" Bae Joo-hyun shook his head with a smile, "Before I came back, in the area of Yingchuan, there were already some strange comments about Li Xiuman, I think...... We might as well let them ferment. ”

"Strange statement?" Jin Zhijing's eyelids jumped.

"We'll talk about that later." Bae Joo-hyun smiled and shook his head, "Well, my lords, I, Bae Joo-hyun, are back again...... Although it is estimated that he will not stay in Luoyang for long and will have to leave, he ...... It's great to see that everyone is okay! ”

"Okay, otherwise, I'll have a banquet today......"

"Don't! I appreciate your kindness, princess, but the lord has come back to recuperate. The husband is seriously injured, what kind of banquet do you set up? And...... I am a prisoner, and I was escorted back as a hostage by General Yuna. Pei Zhuhyun hurriedly stretched out his hand and stopped Zhou Jieqiong, "There will be a chance to drink in the future." Let's talk about it when the world is peaceful! ”

“…… Okay. Zhou Jieqiong smiled, "Seeing my husband like this, I forgot that he should be seriously injured and dying." ”

"Alright, let's go about our own business." Xu Huabiao smiled and said to everyone: "If someone asks you, they will say that I am injured, but it is not serious, the source of my strength can ensure that my life is safe, but I need to recuperate......"

"Yes." Everyone in the hall responded in unison.

"Alright, let's go our separate ways! I'll be looking for you alone for something...... It's been a while since I've talked to you guys alone...... Come one by one! Xu Huabiao smiled and clapped his hands, "Let's disperse first!" ”

"Yes!"
