Cao Cao returned and took action immediately.
Several orders were issued to prepare for the blockade of Yingchuan, to search for assassins inside and outside Xudu City, and to look for relevant clues based on the dead men in black.
The soldiers under his command were mobilized one after another.
Various orders were issued in Sikong Mansion.
Cao Ang took over this important task and was responsible for finding out the mastermind behind the assassination of Chen Zhou. At this time, soldiers could be seen everywhere inside and outside Xudu City.
But for the time being, they couldn't find any clues.
Liu Bei is very worried now, even guilty.
After getting the news that the assassination failed, he hurried home from outside and saw soldiers walking around in the city. He was afraid that something would be discovered and soldiers would break into the house and arrest someone.
"It's fine!"
"The public channels are very covert and they won't find out about me."
Liu Bei said to himself.
However, the mission failed and Chen Dao was seriously injured, which made him worried again.
Lu Bu's daughter Lu Lingqi mixed with Chen Zhou and was able to desperately save Chen Zhou. This was an unexpected accident that he could not have expected, and it was also the only accident that ruined Chen Gong's plan.
Otherwise, today’s matter will be over!
Liu Bei felt depressed.
"Brother!"
Zhang Fei said: "You should let me and my second brother take action. Not to mention one Lu Lingqi, even ten Lu Lingqi are no match for us."
The characteristics of Guan and Zhang were too obvious, and Liu Bei did not dare to use them as assassins.
"Brother's arrangement makes sense."
Guan Yu explained: "We were almost discovered when we saved Mr. Gongtai before."
Liu Bei said helplessly: "We have to accept the reality. If we fail, we will fail. We will have a chance to kill him again in the future! In addition, this matter must not be mentioned to the outside world and cannot be known to anyone else, not even your cronies. "
If you let others know, there is a possibility of leakage.
"We understand!"
Guan Yu nodded.
Zhang Fei also nodded.
Despite this, Liu Bei still felt guilty.
Fortunately, after one night, no one came to catch them. They were indeed fine and could not be traced to themselves.
——
Lu Lingqi's condition gradually stabilized and she stopped bleeding.
However, he lost too much blood, his face was pale, and he could not wake up so quickly, which made Chen Zhou worried.
Seeing their husbands like this, Cao Shan and Liu Ling could only comfort and help take care of Lu Lingqi. They knew Lu Lingqi's identity, but seeing that Lu Lingqi was willing to suffer such serious injuries to save her husband, they felt very grateful and took it as a gift. My own family.
If Chen Zhou wants to marry Lu Lingqi, they agree.
"Husband!"
At this time, Qiao Ying entered the room and whispered: "Mr. Xun is here, go and meet them! We are here. If Miss Lu wakes up, we will notify you as soon as possible."
Not long after Xi Zhong and Guo Jia were sent away, people from the Xun family also arrived.
Chen Zhou calmed down and said softly: "I made you worry."
"Husband, don't say such things."
Liu Ling said gently: "We are a family and we don't care about anything else, but don't keep Mr. Xun and the others waiting."
Chen Zhou nodded slightly and arrived at the reception hall.
I saw Xun Yu and Xun You coming, and Xun Ji and Xun Qiao also came to care about Chen Zhou.
"Sir, are you okay?"
Xun Qiao asked first.
She had a good feeling for Chen Zhou and her first impression was excellent.
When Mi Heng scolded his father, Chen Zhou helped him scold him back. Mi Heng was speechless and admired Chen Zhou's ability.
"It's okay for now!"
Chen Zhou invited them to sit down.
They were relieved to see that Chen Zhou was really fine.
Xun You asked: "Why do you think someone wants to assassinate you?"
Before Chen Zhou had time to ponder this question, he said, "I don't know. I don't have any enemies in Xudu. Even if I have, they are all dead."
Xun Yu also asked: "Think about it, have you offended anyone recently, or is there anyone who hates you?"
"Is it possible that it's you Zhengping?"
Xun Ji's thoughts quickly focused on this person.
At the beginning of the year to welcome the Spring Festival, Mi Heng was disgraced under Chen Zhou's rebuttal. He should have hated Chen Zhou very much.
"Not very likely."
Before Chen Zhou could speak, Xun Qiao said: "I don't think you, Zhengping, can do this kind of thing. He just has a good mouth and doesn't have such courage. There should be no such master around him."
Both Xun Yu and Xun You knew about Mi Heng, and Chen Zhou had indeed offended him thoroughly.
"Miss Xun is right!"
Chen Zhou agreed: "But it seems that Mi Heng is not the only one who hates me. Who wants to kill me..."
Thinking about this, he immediately had a candidate in mind.
There are indeed people in Xudu City who are unhappy with themselves.
It is also possible to kill oneself out of jealousy and other psychological reasons. By narrowing down to this range, it is quite easy to target specific suspicious persons.
"I have some guesses, but I can't confirm it yet."
Chen Zhou thought about it and said, "I'll go and confirm if it's him tomorrow."
"Who does Watanabe think that person might be?"
Xun Yu asked.
"Liu Bei!"
There is a high possibility that Chen Zhou is thinking about this person.
When he was in the army, Chen Zhou noticed that Liu Bei looked at him strangely, as if he had a feeling that if he couldn't get it, he would destroy it.
Whether it is specific or not, he has yet to verify.
"Liu Xuande?"
Xun You thought for a moment and agreed with Chen Zhou's judgment.
The possibility of Liu Bei is still very high.
Next, Chen Zhou discussed with them for a while, and couldn't agree on anything else, so he sent them away.
Before going out, Xun Qiao reminded him with concern: "Next time you go out of the city, sir, you need to take more people with you to protect your own safety."
"I understand, thank you Miss Xun."
Chen Zhou nodded.
Xun Qiao's pretty face turned slightly red, and she trotted away after her father.
Back in the room, Chen Zhou stayed with Lu Lingqi for a while. It was difficult for her to get better in a short time, so she could only recuperate slowly.
As long as it's not life-threatening.
But at this time, someone came to visit the family again.
Two women came, none other than Yan and Diao Chan.
They didn't go far. They knew that Lu Lingqi was going back to see Chen Zhou, and they also heard that something might happen to Lu Lingqi. They mustered up the courage to come and find her. This was true.
"Shan'er, ask your servants to arrange a room for them to stay in temporarily!"
Chen Zhou said.
Cao Shan understood their identities clearly and did not refuse.
Lu Lingqi was hurt so badly because of Chen Zhou. They were actually quite sorry for Lu Lingqi's mother.
Time passed quickly, and the night passed.
Lu Lingqi hasn't woken up yet.
But Cao Ang is here.
He seemed to have stayed up all night, tracking down the assassin for Chen Zhou. His eyes were slightly bloodshot and there were dark circles.
"Sir, we still can't find out the origin of the assassin."
Cao Ang said with shame: "But my father said that for your safety, General Dian will always be with you."
