Chapter 443: Looking for Death
Message from Zhuangzi there?
Zhuangzi lived with He Yande and his wife Fang.
He Yande's legs were broken, he had become crippled, and he could only lie in bed or in a wheelchair all day long, while Fang's was already insane, and he was just fed and cared for by his subordinates all day long, barely having a life.
"What news." He Yanxiu's expression was slightly gloomy.
"It is said that the young lady is missing, and she is looking for it everywhere." The subordinate replied cautiously, "It is also said that the eldest young master has been drinking since he got up in the morning, and he has been drinking all day, and then the person who drank was unconscious and incontinent, and he has already asked the doctor to take a look, saying that it may not be very good." ”
"The eldest young master scolded and scolded for a long time, and asked the people below to come back and spread the word, saying that he wanted the second master to go over anyway, and said that if you didn't go, these words would be brought to the grave......"
When He Yanxiu heard this, his eyebrows raised slightly.
After thinking for a while, Chong Xing'an said, "Prepare people and horses." ”
"The second master really wants to go?" Hung Yen was a little uneasy.
He Yande has been in peace for a long time, and there has never been any more moths, but today he suddenly tried every possible way to ask the second master to pass......
The queen is now confined in the palace, and His Royal Highness was also punished and confined for interceding for the queen, and the courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty all believed that the emperor would be the crown prince under the third highness of the Naturi.
At such a juncture, He Yande wants to find something to come out, and he has to make people think about it.
Xing'an knew that although his master was resolute and decisive, he was only a little unable to let go of his shortcomings in family matters.
This is clearly going to be a loss!
"It doesn't matter." He Yanxiu waved his hand absently.
There are some people who must be seen.
Some things have to be settled after all.
And now that the hall is facing this situation, it is bound to make some counterattacks, He Yande is not only the minion of the highness, but his behavior will also indicate the next move of the highness.
This time, he had to go.
Seeing that He Yanxiu insisted, Xing'an no longer dissuaded, only prepared horses, called Shi Ding and Juniper to accompany him, and went to the grange together.
The Grange is on the outskirts of Beijing.
But it was not in the same place as the grange that had been sold to Su Yujin before, but in the opposite direction, starting from the Hejia family in the capital, and it took an hour and a half to ride a horse there.
As night fell, several horses galloped on the official road in the bright starlight of the sky.
In the middle of summer nights, because of the vast fields and occasional woods on both sides of the official road, I don't feel the slightest heat, but a little more refreshing and cool.
The moon gradually rose, and shone more and more on the earth as if it were day.
It was also this bright moonlight that He Yanxiu noticed the cold light of a sharp arrow whistling towards him, bent down on the horse's back, and reached out to hold the tail of the arrow.
He Yanxiu twisted his eyebrows, his eyes were like torches, and he broke the arrow and threw it on the ground.
The speed of the horse's gallop did not weaken in the slightest, but Juniper and Shi Ding were in good spirits, especially Juniper, who raised his arm and supported it with the tail of the horse's neck, and tightened the pull ring in his hand towards the place where the "squirping" sound was made.
Keeping track of the time, Juniper pulled down the pull ring, and two incomparably delicate sleeve arrows immediately flew out of his sleeve, stabbing straight into the dense jungle next to him.
Almost instantly, a figure let out a muffled grunt and fell from the tree like a sack, and there was no more movement.
But a moment later, another sharp arrow flew.
This time I came for Juniper.
"Look for death!" Juniper narrowed his eyes and activated the Hidden Arrow on his arm again.
"Whoosh" twice, and a black shadow fell again.
As the shadow fell, there was a clattering sound of horses' hooves behind them, and horses galloped towards them, apparently chasing them.
He Yan Xiu pulled the reins and slowed down the horse.
The horses chasing behind quickly caught up, and the steel knife in his hand glowed with an eerie chill, and slashed straight at He Yanxiu and the others.
He Yan's slender sword came out of the sheath, and with two "slashes", he slashed a sword flower in the air, cutting the throat of the first man in black to pounce.
The man clutched his neck and fell from his horse in disbelief, and the horse was frightened and ran aside.
Seeing this, the black-clothed man behind him pounced more and more fiercely towards He Yanxiu and the others.
The big knife in his hand slashed at them even harder.
This time, without He Yanxiu's move, Jun Song and Shi Ding had already completely solved all the black-clothed people in three times and five by two.
The corpses lay on the ground in such a streak, and the horses scattered in fright, and blood was spilled all over the ground.
"Master, do you want to go down and take a look?"
Look at these people to see if there are any clues about their identities, and if you can determine who sent them.
"Not necessarily." He Yan cultivated, "At this time, there is no one else who can ambush on the road." ”
There are only two people, Qin Peiyuan and He Yande.
"Yes." Juniper responded and glanced at Shi Ding at the same time.
Shi Ding also nodded and clenched the reins in his hand.
There are bound to be many things tonight, and we must deal with them with a good spirit.
The four horses then hurried away, and as the moon rose, the He family's mansion was brightly lit at this time.
Mrs. He sat at the table, in good spirits, not sleepy, and her fingers kept moving the long string of prayer beads.
"Mother, it's not too early, let's rest early." Lu persuaded, "Mother will enter the palace tomorrow to visit Concubine Shu and the little princess, if she sleeps late, I am afraid that she will not be in good spirits tomorrow, and if Concubine Shu Niangniang sees it, she will be worried." ”
"Yan Xiu went to Zhuangzi, I don't feel at ease." Old Madam He sighed and said, "This child, when he left, he didn't say a word, and he didn't know that he would make a sound, so he could rest assured if he sent a few people to follow." ”
"The people around Yan Xiu are all safe, and their skills are excellent, so they will be fine." Lu Shi paused and said, "And the daughter-in-law thinks that Yan Xiu has to learn to deal with these things." ”
"That's it." Old Madam He stood up, and then seemed to think of something, "What about Chengye, can you sleep?" ”
"No, just now, people under me went back and forth, saying that they were still looking at the drawings." Lu replied, "Looking at this posture, I guess I won't be able to rest tonight, and my daughter-in-law will take a look at it later, and I will also send some supper, so my mother can rest assured." ”
"Hmm." Old Madam He nodded, "Chengye has been at home for so many years because of the previous incident, and now the emperor does not dislike it, and he actually entrusts him to supervise the construction of the new country, and he really needs to do a good job in order to live up to the emperor's trust." ”
"Mother is very right." Lu agreed, "The undertaker was reinstated and took on the post of secretary of the Ministry of Industry again, and he also made a decision in his heart. ”
