Before the chamberlain Lao Gao reached the Criminal Department, he saw a fast horse galloping towards him, "It's not good, Mr. Marquis, Mr. Marquis was assassinated on Zhuque Street, Zhuque Street..."
who?
"The Champion, the Champion was assassinated, on Suzaku Street!"
Damn it! Who dares to assassinate the Marquis?
Lao Gao was so furious that he galloped towards Zhuque Street.
At this time, people on Zhuque Street were already in panic. Countless people were rushing to the place where the past happened, and it was impossible to leave on horseback.
Lao Gao could only turn his horse's head and go back to the gate of the imperial city to gather troops and horses to clear the way.
"Master Marquis, Master Marquis... you must not let anything happen, you must not!" Lao Gao was mumbling along the way.
The moment he saw Li Junxian covered in blood, Lao Gao completely exploded, "Li Junxian, how do you protect your special mother? How can you let thieves get close to you in Chang'an City? I..."
"Housekeeper Gao, please stop scolding me now. I will commit suicide later to apologize. Hurry up and send me to the Imperial Hospital. This is all the Marquis's blood."
What? ? ?
Lao Gao almost fainted from fright. He knew very well that Marquis Xiao Rui was weak and suffered from hidden injuries. He could not withstand such a heavy blood loss...
"Quick, quick, follow me."
Lao Gao was also a ruthless man. He took out a gold medal from his arms and ordered loudly: "Instruct the Imperial City Guard General Dugu Wuda to clear the road from Xuanwu Gate to Taiyuan Hospital from now on. Anyone who dares to get in the way will be killed immediately!"
Xiao Rui was in a coma for three days due to excessive blood loss. During these three days, all his wives and children stayed with him at the Tai Hospital, and the three wives shed tears all day long. There was a sense of sadness both inside and outside the court, and even in the city of Chang'an.
The matter has been found out. The assassin turned out to be the death row prisoner Zheng Zihe? Li Er was furious and the Minister of Punishment was almost imprisoned.
Xiao Rui took people to the Ministry of Punishment Prison to interrogate Zheng Zihe, and no one was allowed to approach. After the interrogation, Xiao Rui wanted to take Zheng Zihe out to collect evidence. The two of them rode in Xiao Rui's special four-wheeled carriage.
This kind of privilege is rarely exercised by the champion. No one dares to say anything. Everyone believes in the character of the champion and it is impossible for him to release a death row prisoner privately.
Who would have imagined that this time the champion Hou Xiaorui was actually plotted against. On the carriage, Zheng Zihe suddenly killed someone. If Xiao Rui hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been a corpse by now. Li Junxian, who was driving the car, came to the rescue in time, but Xiao Rui was seriously injured. Zheng Zihe was kicked off the carriage and wanted to escape, but Li Junxian encouraged the people to stop him.
Because the Ministry of Punishment has announced that Zheng Zihe was responsible for the Chang'an serial murders. Countless people hated him. It took a lot of effort to produce a few good young people in the common people's homes, but they were killed like this... Everyone wanted to eat them alive. goods.
Now Zheng Zihe is right in front of him, and he assassinates the champion? No matter how rude the people were, they swarmed him and beat him into a pulp.
The truth is this, but the rumors are full of ridicule towards Xiao Rui.
Let’s talk about Zheng Zihe and Xiao Rui: a death row prisoner, with just a few confused words, deceived him into getting close to Xiao Rui, and almost succeeded in assassinating him... Tsk, tsk, Xiao Rui? That's all.
Li Er's face was livid, "So, that boy openly asked us to help send a message to Xiao Rui. It was not a pretense or a guessing game, but it was actually just to plot and kill people? What a deep scheme!"
Yes, everyone's face is not good-looking, and everyone in the civil and military dynasties has been plotted, including the emperor. Even the emperor was the biggest accomplice. If the emperor hadn't sent Du Ruhui to deliver the message, Xiao Rui might not have had much curiosity...
After Wang Jishan of the Wang family heard about this, he sighed: "Zheng Zihe... is really a poisonous snake! Alas, I didn't expect that the champion would also fall into the trap. Xiao Rui, you must not die. Our contest just began."
From the moment Xiao Rui was carried into Taiyuan Hospital, Wang Jishan asked his uncle Wang Si about Xiao Rui's life and death every day.
Although Zheng Zihe was trampled to a pulp and scolded by his ancestors for eighteen generations, and the Zheng family was also hated by the people, Zheng Shuping of the Zheng family was very happy, "Yes, he is indeed the son of my Zheng family. Who said Is Xiao Rui invincible? Although Zihe died this time, he has no regrets."
"Xiao Rui, if you die like this, the grievances between our Zheng family and you will be wiped out. If you don't die, haha, sooner or later we will seek revenge on you!"
So many people are thinking about Xiao Rui, what is happening to him?
"It's strange. Mr. Hou's pulse is stable and he is out of danger. Why can't he wake up?" President Wang from the Tai Hospital stroked his beard over and over again, until his goatee was almost gone.
Well... I had a solid sleep this time!
Xiao Rui gave a long slump, and Dean Wang stood blankly on the spot, not even able to save the few remaining beards.
"H-Master Hou, are you awake?"
"Well, I'm awake."
"You scared us to death. You were unconscious for three days..."
"No, no, no, no, I woke up on the first night. I just fell asleep again because I was too sleepy."
puff……
Woke up on the first night? Fell asleep again? Here……
Xiao Rui covered Dean Wang's mouth and said, "Old Wang, please don't tell me that I'm unconscious. If my three ladies know that I'm pretending to be asleep...ahem!"
"Yeah, I know, I know." Dean Wang indicated with his eyes, an attitude that even a man would understand.
He stood up slowly, straightened his clothes, and whispered: "Master Marquis, please faint again and I'll call someone."
After a while, the whole room was crowded with people, and Xiao Rui thought to himself that he might as well continue to sleep.
"Don't stay in the hospital. It's better to move back to Zhuangzi to recuperate."
Xiangcheng reminded: "Husband, my father told me to notify him as soon as you wake up. Just wait a moment, my father will be here soon."
"Oh... Then take everyone out first. I will have something to say with His Majesty later."
Li Er walked in quickly, sat on the edge of the hospital bed, and held Xiao Rui's hand, "How are you? Are you okay? That Zheng Zihe... Humph, I underestimated him. Alas!"
Xiao Rui whispered: "That guy is not dead. I directed and acted in such a scene just to save that guy's life."
What? you……
Li Er exclaimed and stood up, so angry that he really wanted to kick this guy to death.
"Father-in-law, father-in-law... it hurts, it hurts... don't fight, I'm really hurt!" Xiao Rui begged for mercy repeatedly.
"You have kept us in fear for three days. If you don't give me an explanation, I won't be able to spare you!"
Xiao Rui whispered: "Zheng Zihe told a vicious plan."
"Did he trick you?"
"No, it's the poisonous plot hatched by Qiwang of the Fifth Surname against our Enke." After listening to Xiao Rui's words, Li Er was sweating from behind. It was really a vicious plot.
It turns out that this is the real bottom line!
"Now that we know their plan, we can make arrangements in advance to break the situation." Li Er felt confident, "Then why do you still keep Zheng Zi and that scourge? It would be a shame for that kid to die!"
Xiao Rui spread his hands and said, "Father-in-law, we are too busy to play with that boy Wang Jishan? Let Zheng Zihe do his mischief in secret. He hates Wang Jishan to the core and will definitely not let that boy have an easy time. of."
"It's interesting to sit on a mountain and watch tigers fight, to watch their civil strife..."
Li Er rolled his eyes: You are still the bad one!
