After Zheng Yuming was assassinated, Ma Ren blocked the news before he fell into a coma. Only a few people in Ulsan, including Yu Kui, Wei Ci, and Wu Da, knew about it.Yang He and Fu Chou who were present at the time were under surveillance, while Wei Kou and Huo Sihua lived in the county mansion together.

The two brothers Tian Hu and Tian Bao, the two villagers of Houpo Village who once robbed Wu Da, are now officials in charge of public security.The two were the first to feel that Ulsan was about to come.They received an order that the members of the Public Security Bureau stop their vacations and all work on duty. If any abnormalities are found, they will be dealt with quickly. The Public Security Bureau is in a state of first-level alert.

In addition, some businessmen smelled the smell. They felt that the roads and rivers were strictly inspected, and there were more security checkpoints.At this time, the businessman heard that Wu Wangsheng and Gong Ziming were both in Ulsan, and he only thought that he was so on guard for safety, but he didn't think about the bad.

Except for a small number of people who felt strange, most of the people in Ulsan were unconscious and still lived normally until Jiang Kyu diagnosed and treated Zheng Yuming.

"Extra! Extra! The young master was assassinated and seriously injured and is in danger!" The voice of the young newsboy on Dacheng Street was loud and hurried.

"Nonsense, how could the son be in danger!" Tian Bao, who was on duty on the street, grabbed the newsboy by the shoulder.

"Sir, it's true. This is a message from the county government!" The newsboy's eyes were red. The newsboy came from a poor family and was originally destined to work in the fields, but because of the establishment of a primary and secondary school, the newsboy entered the school to learn how to read.In addition to providing free lunch at noon, the school also provides work-study opportunities for students from poor families, so that newspaper boys can enter the school to study.The newspaper boy knew very well who he was benefiting from, and his love for Zheng Yuming came from his heart.

"Let me see!" Tian Bao gave the newsboy a silver coin, grabbed a newspaper and read it. Tian Bao had studied in night school for four years, so he had no problem reading.

As the newsboy's voice spread, people quickly gathered around. Those who could read bought newspapers to read the news, and those who could not read were eager to be read to him.

"Yong Wang is abominable!" A well-dressed middle-aged man gritted his teeth. This middle-aged man is a merchant, and his life has been prosperous in recent years.

"My boss, what's the matter? What's the matter, sir?" The old woman who sold tea eggs grabbed the middle-aged vendor's sleeve, her face was quite anxious. Are concerned.

"King Tang Guoyong sent an assassin to Ulsan to assassinate the young master. The young master was seriously injured and unconscious. Oh! The assassin also stabbed the prince of Zhao Guo who came to visit the young master." The middle-aged merchant told the content of the old woman's newspaper.

"Yong Wang!" After hearing this, the old woman cursed bitterly, closed her eyes and joined her hands together to pray to heaven.

"God bless the son of our country is safe and sound! This year's grand ceremony, the old woman will sacrifice five animals to thank!" The old woman was only concerned with praying for the safety of Zheng Yuming, and had no sense of what happened to Prince Zhao.

The newsboy's newspapers were robbed in no time, and the newspaperboy's newspapers were sold out, so they ran to the newspaper office. Today, there are a lot of extra newspapers published by Nanbao, and each newsboy has to sell them several times before they are all sold out.

Zheng Yuming sat halfway on the bed, holding the Chinese medicine in one hand, took a sip, and then looked at the wood in front of the bed.There was a basin of the same traditional Chinese medicine in front of Mu Mu. Seeing his master looking at him, Mu Mu hummed and lowered his head, and licked unwillingly. .

Zheng Yuming didn't seem to see Mu Mu's pitiful eyes. He took another sip of traditional Chinese medicine from the bowl, and then looked at Mu Mu, which meant clearly that he wanted Mu Mu to lick the traditional Chinese medicine again.

"Woohoo!" Mu Mu was in pain, the black water in the dog bowl in front of him was too bitter, why did the master force Mu Mu to drink it.

"That's right, Mu Mu is good!" Zheng Yuming finished drinking the Chinese medicine in the bowl in his hand, and Mu Mu was forced to drink most of the Chinese medicine in the dog's bowl.

Seeing the owner put down the medicine bowl, Mu Mu quickly ran away from his dog bowl, fearing that the owner would force him to drink up the rest.

Chu Zhaohui, who had been busy for a long time and had some free time, walked into the bedroom, just in time to see Mu Mu's small movements, and the person and dog in front of him had regained their vitality, and Chu Chaohui's eyebrows and eyes stretched.

"Did you get up and go around the circle today?" Chu Chaohui sat beside Zheng Yuming's bed and touched Zheng Yuming's forehead. Zheng Yuming's body temperature had returned to normal.

"It's been around more than a dozen times." Zheng Yuming followed Jiang Gui's instructions, getting out of bed and walking around the room every day.

"Don't be too tired from walking!" Chu Zhaohui gently embraced Zheng Yuming, kissed his lips, and tasted the bitterness in Zheng Yuming's mouth.

The room was filled with warmth, and the more they kissed, the more they devoted themselves.

"Woooo!"

Wood's impatient voice sounded beside the two of them.Chu Zhaohui stopped and turned his head, only to see Mu Mu resting on the edge of the bed with his front paws still wrapped in gauze, and two dark dog eyes staring at the two of them.

"Wood, why don't you go to sleep after drinking the medicine!" Chu Chaohui's mouth was pulled down. Besides guarding his master, Demu also insisted on working part-time as a light bulb.

Mu Mu didn't understand, and looked at Chu Chaohui with his dark eyes stubbornly.

"Zhaohui, you haven't touched it today." Zheng Yuming smiled softly. After Mu Mu was injured, he liked to act like a baby. After Chu Zhaohui came in, he ignored Mu Mu, and Mu Mu was very dissatisfied.

"Mu Mu is good, go to sleep and rest!" Chu Chaohui rubbed Mu Mu, and Mu Mu seemed satisfied after being caressed, and obediently lay down on the ground and closed his eyes to rest.

"What's the sound outside?" Zheng Yuming held his breath and listened, and there were bursts of noise from outside the high wall of the courtyard.

Chu Chaohui listened intently, and said calmly, "Your assassination has been reported in the newspapers, and now the people of Dacheng know about it, and they are discussing it."

"Oh! I hope it doesn't cause panic." Zheng Yuming was relieved. "Have you been to see Sheng?"

"I've seen it. Sheng made a fuss about coming to Dacheng to see you. I'll ask him to come back in two days." After Jiang Gui confirmed that Zheng Yuming's life was not in danger, Chu Chaohui first went to Nanbu to meet Wu Wangsheng and his wife, and then went to the post house Met with Zhao Xuan and reached an agreement with Zhao Xuan to jointly attack Tang.

"Has Zhao Xuan left yet?" After Zheng Yuming lay down, Chu Chaohui took care of all affairs. He only concentrated on healing his injuries and didn't understand the outside world.

"I haven't left yet, let's delay him for two days." Chu Zhaohui smiled, and Zheng Yuming didn't offer to meet Zhao Xuan to satisfy him.

"Take him for two days?" Zheng Yuming was suspicious.

Chu Chaohui took Zheng Yuming's right hand and kneaded it. "I want to use troops against Tang in August."

"Are you going to take Tang Kingdom before the river freezes?" Zheng Yuming immediately guessed why Chu Chaohui chose August to fight Tang.

The original plan for the Northern Expedition to merge is to start the spring operation next year.Wu Jun wanted to use the waterway to transport troops and military supplies, so he had to prevent the river from freezing.The latitude of the big river is higher, and the river will freeze during the coldest winter, and ships cannot sail.From the end of November to the end of February of the next year, the Changhe River freezes.

Because of Zheng Yuming's assassination, Chu Chaohui decided to advance the Northern Expedition. It is now mid-June, and it will take at least one and a half months for the army to mobilize and raise supplies. He hastily set the timetable for the Northern Expedition in August, in order to catch the Northern Expedition before the river freezes in November. Tang country.

"That's right!" Chu Zhaohui's smile deepened, and they knew each other best, often one person said the first half of a sentence, and the other guessed the second half.

"Holding Zhao Xuan back to raise the army later?" Zheng Yuming pointed out Chu Chaohui's intention.

"Yes!" Chu Zhaohui's voice was drawn out. "There is another reason. Huang Zhong and Wei Shuqing have already gone to Chu State for activities. I have to buy more time for Young Master Shi." Chu Chaohui hoped that Young Master Shi, with Huang Zhong's help, could catch up with Zhao Xuan. Before the soldiers attacked Tang, they borrowed from the Chu army.

Zheng Yuming sighed slightly, thinking that Zhao Xuan was still dreaming of carve up the Tang Kingdom in the posthouse.

"Don't delay for too long, it would be bad if Zhao Xuan became suspicious."

Chu Zhaohui pondered for a while, and calculated the time it would take for all parties to operate. "Then let him come and say goodbye to you tomorrow."

Zhao Xuan was anxious to go back to the country, but after waiting for three days, Chu Chaohui had no reply. Zheng Yuming's injury had improved, and he could meet Zhao Xuan and his ministers tomorrow.

The next day, Zhao Xuan and his ministers packed their bags early in the morning, and they were going to leave directly to return home after visiting Zheng Yuming.

Under the protection of the guards of Dacheng, Zhao Xuan and his subjects rode a four-wheeled carriage from the post house to the county mansion. The people complained bitterly to the king of the Tang Dynasty, and the voices of the crowd to avenge Young Master Ming continued to rise and fall.

"Your Highness! Young Master Ming is very popular!" Wu Xian, who was riding on the side of Zhao Xuan's carriage, sighed with emotion.

Zhao Xuan silently observed the facial expressions of the people in Dacheng, and compared it secretly in his heart. If he was stabbed and injured as seriously as Zheng Yuming, would the people in King Zhao's capital be as emotional as the people in Dacheng?

"Your Highness, Mr. Ming has such popular support, which is not good for the Zhao country." Bo Yao rode his horse close to Zhao Xuan's car window and whispered his worries.

Zhao Xuan pursed his lips tightly and frowned slightly.Bo Yao muttered again: "Then Mr. Ming will be as critically ill as the newspaper said."

Hearing this, Zhao Xuan quickly scanned his surroundings, and found that no one except him paid attention to Boyao's muttering, so he stared at Boyao reassuringly.

"Bo Yao, be careful when speaking outside!"

Boyao and Zhao Xuan grew up together, and they are not as scrupulous when speaking in front of Zhao Xuan. Zhao Xuan never minds that Boyao's reckless words, because Boyao's loyalty to Zhao Xuan is unmatched.

Passing through the crowd filled with righteous indignation, the monarch and ministers of the state of Zhao arrived at the county mansion, and the guards of the county mansion led Zhao Xuan to see Zheng Yuming.

Zheng Yuming's bedroom is in the backyard, and the front yard is the meeting room, where people come and go, and there are many officials coming in and out, including military officials and civil officials.Passing through the front yard, there were fewer people walking, and when they walked to Zheng Yuming's residence in the back yard, it was even more deserted.Apart from Jingwei, there were no waiters or maids in sight.Seeing this scene, Zhao Xuan couldn't help guessing in his heart, could it be that Zheng Yuming was really seriously injured?Too heavy to handle government affairs?

In Zhao Xuan's mind, Zheng Yuming, as a person with real power in the Wu Kingdom, even if he is seriously injured and unable to get out of bed, he cannot let the power fall aside. The officials should stay in front of Zheng Yuming's bedroom and wait for orders.The scene that Zhao Xuan saw after entering the mansion was too similar to Zheng Yuming's serious injury and the loss of power.

Not only Zhao Xuan was thinking this way, Bo Yao and Wu Xian also guessed this way.

Zheng Yuming's courtyard was too quiet, there were many fine guards outside the courtyard gate, and only a big cow stood in the corridor of the room with his chest crossed.Zheng Yuming was lying on the bed in the bedroom, and there was a log in front of the bed. Other than that, there was only a young soldier waiting outside the bedroom.Such a scene, in the eyes of Mr. Zhao Xuan and his ministers, was quite desolate.
