Dujun love

Chapter 40 Assassin

Qin Yan paused at the door, looked at Lin Zuoren's face full of distrust, and said in a deep and extremely temperamental voice: "Open the door, I'll go in and see for myself."

Qin Yan had nothing to do with this matter, but the day before yesterday she learned that there was a problem with the disaster relief money, and after asking Lin Zuoren, she found out that he did such a thing without telling him, but she didn't know where the money was spent.It's just that now that the mistake has been made, all Qin Yan can do is cover it up for him, who made her like such a man.

The two of them were lying in the tent before going to bed tonight. Originally, Lin Zuoren had intended to have sex, and the two kissed passionately. Qin Yan suddenly remembered that he asked about the account book, and always felt uneasy.

In the end, she still needs to put the account book next to her to feel at ease. Huan can't get through it peacefully, and she can't fall asleep. She has to come out and get the account book with her own hands to be at ease. Lin Zuoren has no choice. Although Qin Yan is not spoiled, she has always been extremely With his own mind, he could only cooperate at this time, so he put on his coat again and came to the study.

Qin Xi whispered, "Quick." Then she casually hid a few important books in her clothes, and climbed up to the roof along the pillars.

Unexpectedly, there was also a mechanism on the eaves. Because she was climbing a pillar and the situation was urgent, she did not escape. Qin Xi was shot in the shoulder by a hidden arrow, and blood gushed out from the wound in an instant, dripping on the ground, and scattered on the ground. Pieces of blood bloomed.

Xu Zhu's heart trembled, he quickly stretched out his hand to support Qin Xi, Qin Xi felt the burning sensation of the wound, said in a low voice: "It's poisonous, go quickly." Xu Zhu used his strength to push Qin Xi up to the roof, Then just climbed up, the door was opened.

Xu Zhu was about to leave, but Qin Xi stopped him, "Going now is courting death. Wait for an opportunity."

Lin Zuoren came in and said, "Mistress, don't worry! This account book is hidden so hidden, who would have thought it would be placed in such a place, and then looked at the bookshelf, "Okay, the account book is not here. "

Hearing the sound, Qin Yan rushed to the bookshelf to look through it, "You mean the two books in the hidden box of The Doctrine of the Mean and The Classic of Mountains and Seas?"

Lin Zuoren looked through the other ledgers in the hidden box, and there were no problems. Only these two ledgers were empty and disappeared. He immediately looked through the mechanism under the desk, but found that no one had touched them.It seems that the person who came was a master, with a panicked face, he said to Qin Yan: "The mechanism of the desk has not been touched."

Qin Yan looked around for the strangeness, and found that none of the decorations had been moved. For a moment, she saw the blood on the ground, looked up, and saw the hole in the roof, "The blood is not dry yet, come here, hurry up." Chase the assassin!"

Qin Xi was waiting for this opportunity. He grabbed the tiles and threw them on the opposite roof. There was a sound of tiles breaking in an instant, and several guards outside the study, including the guard leader, all rushed in that direction.

Xu Zhu supported Qin Xi and jumped off the edge of the study, and then leaped out of the son-in-law's mansion with the help of the rockery, and rushed to the big tree that hides the Hua mansion.

Qin Yan left the study room, walked around the study room, found blood on the ground, and said angrily: "Idiot, this is a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, follow the blood to chase." direction to chase.

Lin Zuoren also came out, looked at the bloodstains all the way, and asked anxiously: "So, what should we do?"

Qin Yan thought for a while, and didn't have many plans in mind, so she looked at the direction where the blood dripped and said, "I can only recover the ledger first, and take a step at the rest."

In fact, Qin Yan probably already had the answer in her heart, but she didn't dare to confirm it, waiting for the news that the group of guards returned without success.

Xu Zhu supported Qin Xi and ran forward all the way, "Master, are you going to Xifeng's residence?"

Qin Xi's face was already pale, even her lips were covered with a layer of hoarfrost, the poison arrow probably contained drowsiness drugs, and she could hardly keep her eyes open at this moment, so she had to open them forcefully and whispered: "No, I can't go , They come along this bloodstain, and they will definitely catch the turtle in the jar."

"Then I'll wipe off the blood before leaving."

Qin Xi shook her head, "No need, I deliberately let the blood flow down, just to invite you into the urn, and return to the palace quickly before the child arrives."

Xu Zhu hesitated and said: "But you..."

Qin Xi gritted her teeth, "If you can hold on, let's go."

Xu Zhu doesn't want to disobey Qin Xi's intention, and he also knows that going back to the palace is the best choice at this time, if he doesn't go back to the palace, he can't hide now.In any case, it sounds unbelievable that the dignified second prince sneaked into the son-in-law's mansion to search the disaster relief ledger.

"The second prince, please bear with me." The two went to the tree where they changed their clothes when they left the palace and changed back to the Chinese clothes hidden on the tree. Qin Xi tore off the night clothes, bandaged the shoulders, and put the clothes back on. Go directly to the palace road on the ground.

Xu Zhu supported Qin Xi and asked: "Master, can this ledger subdue Lin Zuoren?"

"It's not enough at the moment. Go back to the palace first. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run."

Qin Xi knew very well that this account book could at most only show the seriousness of Lin Zuoren's corruption, but considering that he was the son-in-law of the eldest princess, the emperor would be merciful, and the death penalty might not be sentenced.If he wants to eradicate Lin Zuoren, these two ledgers alone are not enough.He also thought clearly about this journey, instead of having one more enemy, not one more ally, it would be a good way to rest assured to contain Lin Zuoren and eradicate him in one fell swoop when necessary.

What Xu Zhu was thinking about was seeing Qin Xi get hurt again. Originally, it is common for people who practice martial arts to get hurt, but he has been with Qin Xi since he was a child, and he is used to seeing Qin Xi's pain. He always thinks about Nian An and Qin Xi If Nian An can take care of Qin Xi if he can achieve a positive result as soon as possible, he asked in a deep voice, "Do you want me to find Mr. Su to take care of you?"

What Qin Xi thought was that his injury might be poisonous. Xifeng left a bottle of Baidu powder in the palace, wondering if it would be effective against the poison. At this time, calling Nian'an to come here can only make him worry. That's all for me, so I gritted my teeth and said, "I kept this from him in advance. If I fell asleep and couldn't wake up today, I would go to the prince's place to ask for leave and couldn't go to court before calling Xifeng."

Xu Zhu also knows that Qin Xi is worried about Nian'an and himself, that Mr. Su's health is extremely poor, if he worries too much, it is always bad, think about it differently, if he has a sweetheart, he will report good news and not bad news Yes, he responded, "Yes."

After a short walk, you can reach Baihumen. The three gates of the main gate are named after the four great beasts.The first defensive gate is guarded by a white tiger, which originated from the worship of stars in ancient times.As an ancient divine beast, the white tiger possesses various divine powers, such as avoiding evil spirits, averting disasters, praying for good fortune, punishing evil and promoting good, getting rich and getting rich, and getting married. "Customs of the Customs" says: "The tiger is the phallus and the leader of all beasts. It can fight and devour ghosts." Therefore, the white tiger was placed at the first gate in front of the imperial city. Demons and monsters keep the imperial city stable.

The second guard gate is guarded by the green dragon, which also originated from the worship of stars in ancient times. The green dragon is the god of the east guarding the east. It belongs to the gods of ancient times. Every evening at the turn of winter and spring, the blue dragon appears, symbolizing the return of spring to the earth. , everything is revived, implying that the imperial city is full of vitality.Because there are stone carvings of Qinglong on the gate of the palace, it also takes the meaning of dragon guarding the imperial city, so Qinglongmen is also a defensive gate behind the white tiger.

The third inner court gate is guarded by Suzaku, which originated from the worship of ancient stars. Suzaku is still fire, and its color is vermillion, representing the seven constellations in the south.Taking Suzaku as the last palace gate is also because the entire imperial city faces north and south. Suzaku has the power to destroy all things, and can also protect everything in the inner court of the imperial city. The palace gate of the inner court is crimson, which also symbolizes the endless flames. .The Suzaku Gate is located directly in front of the inner court, and its orientation is mainly south, which can illuminate one side and protect the imperial city forever.

In addition to the three palace gates, there is another gate behind the imperial city, the Zhengong Gate, which is of little use. It guards another of the four great beasts, Xuanwu.Since the pre-Qin period, it has been the mythical beast representing Zhuanxu and the seven constellations in the north.Turtles and snakes were considered spiritual beasts in ancient China, symbolizing longevity and boundlessness, and choosing them as the first gate also symbolizes longevity, symbolizing the longevity of the imperial city.Xuanwu is located directly behind the inner court, and its orientation is mainly north. It can guard the whole city and protect the imperial city without fighting.

As a result, there are four gates in one city, the blue dragon on the left, the white tiger on the right, the red bird in the front, and the Xuanwu in the back.The four spirits of the sky, to straighten the four directions, follow the law of the king's palace and palace.

Qin Xi saw the white light of the White Tiger Gate flickering in front of him, before he arrived, he entered the palace first, and then no one stopped him, Xu Zhu carefully helped Qin Xi back to Qingxin Palace, took Wandusan, Qin Xi simply , all of a sudden tore off the clothes on his body without making a sound, Xu Zhu carefully sprinkled the medicine powder on the wound.

"Master is well, I'll bandage it up for you." Xu Zhu took a clean cloth and carefully bandaged up Qin Xi's wound, Qin Xi nodded, thought for a while and then ordered: "Tomorrow Qin Yan will enter the palace , just say I’m sick and can’t see you.” Qin Xi’s move is to give Qin Yan enough time to figure out how to deal with it, and in the end Qin Yan will find that there is no way to deal with it and can only compromise with Qin Xi.

"Then if Mr. Nian An is here?"

Qin Xi lay down on the bed, "If you can't hide it, you have to hide it, no matter if I'm going out of the palace or face saint, you should know how to do it."

Xu Zhu felt helpless in his heart, how could he do such a deceitful thing, what if Mr. Su finds out and blames him one day, what should he do, but he can only reply: "Yes."

"Also, if I don't wake up at Maoshi, I will inform Wang Cun."

Xu Zhu nodded, thinking about today's day again, "Yes, besides, today is the first day of Chinese New Year, as usual, we should go to pay respects to Empress Lan Fei."

"By the way, go to the Youlan Palace and tell the concubine mother that you can't go."

"Yes."

Qin Xi has closed her eyes, "Is there anything else?"

Xu Zhu pulled down the curtain, "It's gone." After finishing speaking, Xu Zhu pulled up the curtain, called Yan Qing to come in and cut off the candles, and closed the door, then the day's affairs are over, so you can have a good rest up.

Qin Yan here was waiting in the son-in-law's mansion, and the leader of the guards who reported back said, "We chased the blood all the way to the White Tiger Gate, and the hour is approaching. We are still carrying sabers and swords, so we can't go inside to check on the assassin."

After hearing this, Qin Yan sneered, "It really is him."
