Suddenly, everything clicked.
"Master Qi, where is the gold medal I gave you? Why didn't you ask Zhou Quan to return it to me?"
The more he listened, the more something was wrong. In addition, Qu Hou and others were surrounding him. Now Qi Mingxuan understood what Zhou Quan's intention was. No wonder he was not surprised at all when he heard that he had won Su Xuan's gold medal. Instead, he directly asked people to do it. Grab it, this is to lure Su Xuan to come directly to the Zhenfu Division!
"Master Su, run!"
Su Xuan's heart tightened. Before he could realize what Qi Mingxuan meant, Qu Hou, who was walking behind him, slashed at the back of Su Xuan's neck with his sword. Su Xuan didn't have time to dodge and fainted directly to the ground.
Qi Mingxuan lowered his head and sighed. He finally understood the whole story. Why was he deliberately sent to search Su Xuan's home? Even if Su Xuan didn't block the door and didn't give out the gold medal, the next step would definitely be to invite him to Su Xuan. Arriving at Zhenfu Division, it turns out that Zhou Quan has always known about his relationship with Su Xuan...
"What a scheming person! What a scheming person!"
Qi Mingxuan sighed: "Qu Hou, you are indeed Zhou Quan's best dog!"
Qu Hou's face was cold, and the Jinyi guards behind him swarmed up and surrounded Qi Mingxuan who was supporting Su Xuan. Qu Hou looked at Wu Zhong not far away and threatened: "Wu Zhong, I advise you not to act rashly. This is Lord Zhou's wish. You You can stay out of the matter! As long as you don’t say anything, you can take Qi Mingxuan’s place afterwards!”
Wu Zhong smiled wildly, but there was no look of happiness on his face, only hatred and hatred for the injustice in this world.
"Fuck you, am I staying out of it?"
With a mouthful of spittle falling to the ground, Wu Zhong pressed the stone lion's stone base, touched the lion's head with his toes, pulled out the Xiuchun knife that had not been taken away from his waist, and stabbed Qu Hou.
"If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with alcohol!"
Qi Mingxuan stopped him.
"Don't! Da Zhong!"
But in just one breath, Qi Mingxuan didn't even see Qu Hou's movements clearly. Wu Zhong's neck had already been wiped, and blood sprayed on the ground. The blood illuminated by the scorching sun after autumn glowed red.
Qi Mingxuan's eyes were full of pain and his face was ferocious, but he still didn't make a move. The Xiuchun knife from his waist was slowly taken off and he threw it to the ground.
Qi Mingxuan tried hard to suppress the fact that his best friend was killed, his chest rose and fell violently, and it took him a long time to utter a word.
"Why?"
"No reason! You two are just pebbles that happened to appear on Mr. Zhou's way across the river. Just kick them away."
Qi Mingxuan estimated the strength gap between himself and his opponent. Qu Hou was actually a first-class martial artist for a long time. Judging from his actions just now, his strength has improved again. With Su Xuan beside him, there was no way to break through. In the current deadlock, Qi Mingxuan is not the kind of reckless man who rushes forward with passion. He raises his hands and can only surrender.
"Okay!" Qu Hou applauded, and this time a little smile finally appeared on his face.
"Compared to your unsatisfactory brother, you are still more obedient. I will keep you alive for a few more days until the matter ends successfully, and then I will let you leave this world without pain!"
Qu Hou pointed towards Qi Mingxuan with one hand, and all the surrounding Jinyi guards swarmed up and tied up the two people.
"Take the criminal who plotted the Mid-Autumn Festival massacre to the prison!"
Night fell quietly, and Su Tian and Nangong had returned to the palace from outside the palace. Su Tian's body was covered with things, but Nangong's body was light. At most, he had an extra hairpin in the shape of a full moon on his head.
The door of Yonghe Palace was gently pushed open. Su Tian became familiar with Su Xuan and walked straight into the courtyard without any courtesy, completely ignoring Qingwen's shouts.
"What are you doing! Don't you know how to salute my master when you come in? As an imperial doctor, do you still have any manners?"
Su Tian felt as if donkey hair was stuffed in his ears. Every word Qingwen said was blocked from his ears. In the room, Rong Guiren was reading an ancient book. By the candlelight, Su Tian I could see the words in the book, so I read them out.
""Peach Blossoms Resent Willows", it turns out that Ronggui, like other concubines, likes to read these love books!"
Rong Guiren, who was still studying carefully, was obviously frightened by Su Tian's voice.
"Sutian?"
"Yes, it's me! Where is Brother Su? Isn't he here?"
Rong Guiren hurriedly hid the book in his hand on the seat. Su Tian saw it and did not dare to say anything. The joke just stopped was enough. If Rong Guiren continued, Su Tian could continue teasing, but Rong Guiren just said one. If you don't say anything, then you have to be careful.
"I don't know. After you left today, you were called to the Zhenfu Division."
"Damn it!" Su Tian seemed to have thought of something. He slapped his forehead and threw the pastries and medicinal materials onto the ground without even having time to gently put them down. He ran towards the direction of the Zhenfu Division regardless of whether they were damaged. .
"Su Tian! What's wrong with you?"
Rong Guiren felt as if his heart skipped a beat. He remembered what he told Su Xuan to be careful at noon today, and he couldn't help but worry: "Is it true that my crow's mouth is right?"
Qingwen looked at Su Tian's hurried away figure without forgetting to say something angry.
"It's so rude. It's far worse than Mr. Su! He even said he was Mr. Su's senior brother, huh! Mr. Su is your senior!"
Qingwen didn't notice the change in her master's face, and started to pack up the remaining things on the ground. Some of the cherished pastries were smashed into half by Su Tian. Qingwen felt more and more distressed as she picked up the half, but she hadn't finished packing them yet. , Rong Guiren grabbed her hand and ran towards the door.
Qingwen staggered before she could barely keep up.
"What's wrong? Master, why are you in such a panic?"
Rong Guiren's face turned pale. Maybe others didn't know Zhou Quan, but she knew that in the entire palace, Zhou Quan was slightly inferior to Lin Zhangwen's Smiling Tiger. As long as he fell into his hands, he would be skinned even if he died! Originally, Su Xuan didn't come over for a day, which already made Ronggui a little worried. Su Tian's reaction this time further proved her judgment.
"Stop asking so many questions and leave quickly. I can't hold you back! Something must have happened to your Mr. Su! If we don't go to Zhenfusi, you won't be able to see her!"
When Qingwen heard Su Xuan's name, her pace suddenly quickened, even faster than Rong Guiren. From being dragged at first to now dragging Rong Guiren, she only needed a name.
Zhenfusi is at the southernmost edge of the palace, sitting at the gateway to the entire palace. To get to Zhenfusi from Yonghe Palace, apart from the eight-mile straight-line distance, there are also many winding alleys.
