"Maochanghe, keep an eye on that too. Shifts change every four hours. There must be people around the clock." Before getting on the carriage, Yang Shu said to the guard.
"Then there is the time for the patrol guards to visit various places, which changes every three days."
"Don't go back yet." Yang Shu looked at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, raised his eyes, and said quietly, "Go to Qiu's house."
True or false, Xiao Guo probably didn't want to see him getting close to the aristocratic family more than a few officials.
As long as you do it, you won't be afraid that they can hide it.
"Kings."
The Qiu family bowed and saluted, a little surprised in their eyes that Yang Shu came to the door without saying hello. Outsiders didn't know it, but the Qiu family knew that Yang Shu was not close to them.
"I want to see the peach blossoms. I happened to be passing by, so I came in to take a look. Are you being rude?" Yang Shu raised his hand and motioned for them to get up, and said with an easy-going look.
"It's the blessing of those peach blossoms that the king can come."
Qiu Guan and Qiu Chuanan were not here, and it was the second master of the Qiu family who received Yang Shu.
After shopping around, Yang Shu returned happily.
Half an hour after he left, Qiu Guan and Qiu Chuanan returned to the manor.
"I didn't mention anything, I just walked around the peach forest." Qiu Erye said to Qiu Dao.
"How does he look?" Qiu Guan brushed off the dust on his body and asked Mr. Qiu.
"Leisurely and leisurely."
"Father, does he want to marry Yan'er?"
Qiu Guan glanced at Mr. Qiu, "With Yang Shu's status and achievements, do you need Baba to come to your door?"
"He made a message and all the daughters of the Qiu family can be sent to Prince Qin's Mansion."
"What does that mean?" Mr. Qiu looked thoughtful.
Qiu Guan took a sip of tea but said nothing. Although Yang Shu was young, his thoughts were extremely difficult to guess.
"Before you gain Yang Shu's favor, you must be content." Qiu Guan waved his hand and told Master Qiu to step aside.
"grandfather."
Qiu Chuanan entered the study, "I searched and found nothing wrong."
"It's calm outside, maybe it's just a whim."
"Being friends with the Qiu family is also beneficial to him." Qiu Chuanan said slowly.
Qiu Guan put his hand on the arm of the chair, "Since he took the initiative, Chuan'er, you should go to Prince Qin's Mansion more often in the past two days."
"My grandson understands." Qiu Chuanan nodded.
"The development of Huining County is really changing with each passing day." Qiu Guan leaned back and sighed with his eyes closed.
Qiu Chuanan looked out the window with deep eyes.
…
…
As soon as he entered Fenghe Mansion, Xu Jingzhou rushed straight to the Yamen.
He had just stepped in, and before he had even taken two steps, a man in black rushed out from behind the door, his sharp sword flashing in the sunlight, blinding the man.
"The governor!"
The guards screamed, Pang Chang pulled Xu Jingzhou back and slashed him with a knife.
As the swords collided, several arrows flew towards him. Pang Chang was entangled by the men in black and was unable to take care of Xu Jingzhou's side.
The space was limited, and the hidden guards were exhausted to deal with the sharp arrows flying forward and backward.
By accident, the sharp arrow pierced Xu Jingzhou's chest.
"The governor!"
Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Pang Chang was extremely angry, and his offensive became more and more fierce, "Don't even think about leaving!"
The secret guards rushed over and surrounded the Yamen.
The situation immediately reversed. The assassination party became defensive. The man in black had less and less space to move under the machete of the secret guard.
After a while, they were close to each other.
Looking at each other, the man in black decisively bit the poison sac.
Xu Jingzhou has been hit by an arrow, the mission is completed!
"The governor!"
"Please call the doctor!" Pang Chang roared angrily and carried Xu Jingzhou to the main room.
When the magistrate of Fenghe Prefecture received the news, his legs went weak and his lips trembled. How could there be an assassin hiding in the yamen!
"Sir." The Yamen servant supported the county magistrate.
"Go back, go back quickly." The county magistrate grabbed the Yamen servant's arm and said urgently.
But before they could leave, a group of people surrounded them.
The county magistrate forced out a smile that was uglier than crying, "I am Zheng Shouzhong, the magistrate of Fenghe Prefecture."
As soon as he finished speaking, several knives were placed on his neck.
Zheng Shouzhong did not resist and allowed Xu Jingzhou's people to take him away.
Can this be explained clearly? He really didn’t hide the assassin! Zheng Shouzhong was in trouble.
The doctors entered the yamen one after another, but no one came out.
On the bed, Xu Jingzhou looked pale and lay motionless.
Pang Chang roared angrily, causing the frightened birds to fly up.
At the corner of the Yamen, the man left quietly. After making sure no one was following him, he entered a small house.
"We got it." The man came to Xie Xuxu and said.
"The arrow entered the left chest, and with the green and red poison, there is absolutely no chance of survival."
Xie Xuxu turned around and raised the corners of his lips slightly, "In order to kill Xu Jingzhou, we really lost a lot of people."
"Evacuate." Xie slowly spoke.
But as soon as she stepped out of the door, screams sounded outside.
"Oops! It's Yang Shu's personal guard!"
Hearing the shouts of the dead soldiers, Xie Xuxu's pupils shrank sharply. Without any hesitation, she pulled out her short blade and walked towards the east wall.
After breaking open the door, the guards began to search the courtyard, and the sound of swords piercing flesh could be heard from time to time.
"The east wall is connected to the house next to it. A few people ran away." The guard pursed his lips and said in a deep voice.
"Chase!" the leader shouted angrily.
The guard asked him to see for himself, and he saw flames rising into the sky. People were attracted, shouting to put out the fire, and the figures were intertwined and became a mess.
The captain of the guard was so angry that he had to go back and search to see if he could find anything important.
…
…
"Your Majesty, the Ninth Manager is here." The maid entered the room and whispered.
Yang Shu put down the medicine bowl, tucked Xu Yueyao's quilt, and went out.
"Your Majesty, it's over at Fenghe Mansion." Pai Gow said in a deep voice.
Yang Shu frowned, "So fast?"
"As soon as Governor Xu arrived at Fenghe Mansion, he went straight to the Yamen."
Yang Shu's face was heavy. Although he asked Babaili to hurry up, he was afraid that the letter would not reach Xu Jingzhou's hands.
Frowning his eyebrows, Yang Shu listened to Pai Gow continue.
"The assassin was hiding inside, and every arrow was aimed at Governor Xu's throat and heart. When the personal guards arrived, Governor Xu was hit by an arrow in the left chest."
Yang Shu narrowed his eyes and looked at Pai Gow.
"Prince Xu had pork tied to his chest, and he even wore a goggles. He hit the arrow himself."
"To find out who is behind the scenes."
"We did track them, but a few of them ran away."
Yang Shu blinked twice, "Oh no, he's so fierce!"
In Yang Shu's letter to Xu Jingzhou, he asked him to hide in the dark, find someone similar to him, stand in front of people, and lure out the assassin.
Talents like Xu Jingzhou are rare and hard to find. Yang Shu was really afraid that he would be killed, but he didn't know that he would just do it.
"Pai Gow, scholar, you are so scary, full of scheming." Yang Shu rubbed his arms.
"You said, if Xu Yueyao enters Prince Qin's palace, her life will be miserable. What will Xu Jingzhou do to me?"
"Your Majesty, let's live a good life, shall we?" Pai Gow wiped his forehead and said to the governor, he is really a bit scary.
Predict your predictions, act according to common sense, and then kill you.
"Why are you panic? Governor Xu is a loyal minister at first glance." Yang Shu said Pai Gow.
Pai Gow turned his head and glanced at Haitang Courtyard. If he was truly a loyal minister, the king would not have gone to great lengths to seduce Miss Xu.
Governor Xu, he only follows his heart.
