Tan Hanchi felt his eyes blur, and then a feeling of weakness and stiffness slowly spread throughout his body.
His heart suddenly panicked, he was drugged! ?
Although he was filled with shock and doubt, Tan Hanchi was able to maintain his composure.
His feet weakened and he stepped back again and again, but calmly fell towards the table and chairs.
As soon as his waist reached the corner of the table, he bit the tip of his tongue and used his last strength to lift the kettle on the table, pouring it all onto his head.
It was April, and the nights were still cold. After drinking this pot of cold water, Tan Hanchi suddenly became more awake.
He became angry and suddenly shouted: "There is a thief!"
"No! This kid can still withstand the effects of the medicine!"
"No matter what, just use the money to do things and do it!"
Two tall and mighty figures suddenly broke open the window, and the cold knife tips under the moonlight were frightening.
Tan Hanchi's expression suddenly changed. Seeing that he had called for help, but no one came, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Since arriving in Beijing, he has been living in a lower-class room at the other end of the inn. The owner asked him to move to this room for a few days on the grounds that he needed to get rid of mites.
It is adjacent to the kitchen and warehouse, and there are no guest rooms nearby...
It turned out to be a premeditated plan!
At this time, Tan Hanchi's brain could still function, but he could not figure out who in the capital wanted to kill him.
Seeing the tip of the knife approaching the front door, Tan Hanchi violently overturned the table, stumbled open the door, and ran out.
"Don't run!"
There was a shout of surprise from behind, and Tan Hanchi was blown away by the cold night wind, which gave him a little strength.
Escape! He wants to escape!
Han Chuang has been studying hard for more than ten years, but he has not yet realized his ambition. He cannot die here!
Tan Hanchi clenched his hands and stumbled along the way. When he saw the back door of the inn, he pushed it open without hesitation.
At this time, he was so anxious to escape that he didn't even have time to react. Why was the back door of the inn not closed at all at night?
Bang——
The sound of the door hitting the wall made Tan Hanchi's head tighten, and there was confusion on his face for a moment.
Where can he go?
Is there any place in this capital that can make him feel at ease?
At this moment, without any hesitation, two words came to his mind - Qiao Mansion.
Yes, find Brother Qiao!
Tan Hanchi gritted his teeth, even biting his lips to bleed in order to stay awake.
He ran away in the alley behind the inn, but his legs felt as heavy as lead.
He was such a smart person, and he didn't have the time to think about why the two strong killers didn't catch up with him, a drugged scholar.
The sound of breathing became heavier and heavier, and the cold and pain could not suppress the surging dizziness.
Tan Hanchi couldn't help but stand supporting the wall, but the next moment his vision went dark and he fell directly at the entrance of the alley.
"Brother, Brother Tan fainted."
A low voice suddenly sounded, and a handsome face poked out from the darkness, it was Qiao Diyi!
"Quickly, take him back to Qiao Mansion!"
Qiao Tianjing leaned over to help Tan Hanchi up with a solemn expression and put him on Qiao Diyi's back.
It would be terrible if he was caught by the second prince!
"Okay, let's go!"
The route of the Jinwu Guard's night patrol had already been clearly understood by Qiao Zhongguo. Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi hurriedly walked through the night, and their figures instantly disappeared into the night.
As for the two killers who rushed into the inn, they had already been caught by the Qiao family's secret guards who were ambushing in the yard.
This is called the mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind!
As for the back door of the inn, it was specially reserved for Tan Hanchi by the Qiao family's secret guards.
Less than half a quarter of an hour after everything was handled, several black figures landed in the alley behind the inn.
"Zhufeng, didn't you say you found out that Sheng Mingcheng would take action tonight?"
The voice was clear and cold, and the beautiful face was astonishing under the moonlight. It was none other than the male protagonist Shen Yuanbai!
"Go back to the master, I will tell you tonight only after I heard with my own ears the manpower arranged by Sheng Mingcheng. There will be no mistake!"
A dark figure bowed in front of Shen Yuanbai, with fear in his voice.
Shen Yuanbai frowned suddenly, "Go in and take a look."
Several people crossed the back wall of the inn and walked into the lower room where Tan Hanchi was. Except for a pool of wet water stains on the ground, everything else was as it was and nothing could be seen.
Zhufeng became more and more frightened, "Master, please go out and take a look!"
Shen Yuanbai stood in the room, his eyes dark.
"No need, there are people who can move faster than us."
The water stains on the ground can prove that something must have happened in the house just now, but since the tables and chairs are not messy at all, it means that someone has taken care of the aftermath.
Zhufeng couldn't help but look shocked when he heard this, "My subordinates lurked around Sheng Mingcheng for several months before getting the news. Who can do it faster than us?"
A hint of evil flashed in Shen Yuanbai's eyes, and he murmured: "Yes, I am also very curious, who is so powerful..."
In order to seize Duke Qing's leverage and use him for his own use, he had been planning for nearly half a year.
Who is it that is against him!
————
At noon on the second day, Tan Hanchi opened his eyes in a daze and felt a splitting headache!
"hiss--"
He sat up slowly and rubbed his head vigorously. When he saw the unfamiliar decorations in front of him, the shock of last night suddenly came to his mind.
"not good!"
Tan Hanchi screamed and heard a babbling baby cry.
He suddenly turned his head and saw Qiao Zhongguo holding Qiao Jiaojiao, with Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Diyi standing beside him.
"Brother Qiao! General Qiao!"
Tan Hanchi stood up suddenly, but almost fell down again because of dizziness.
"Brother Tan, be careful, don't worry, you are already safe."
Qiao Tianjing quickly stepped forward to support Tan Hanchi, but Tan Hanchi held Qiao Tianjing's arm tightly.
"Brother Qiao, look at the weather. Have the results been released? Did I...did I pass the exam?"
Qiao Tianjing's face darkened slightly when he heard this. Tan Hanchi observed his words and couldn't help but close his eyes slightly, unable to hide his disappointment.
"Is that so-"
Seeing Tan Hanchi's appearance, Qiao Jiaojiao was so anxious that she spoke.
[Tan Hanchi, don’t be disappointed! You don’t know, you’re the top scorer! Someone faked your article! 】
Tan Hanchi slowly sat back on the couch. He knew that he should pay homage to General Qiao first, but his mind was so confused that he couldn't stand still at all.
Qiao Zhongguo cherished talents very much. He already knew from Qiao Jiaojiao that Tan Hanchi was the best among people, so he took the initiative to speak:
"You were found fainted at the entrance of the alley last night. Diyi wanted to invite you to see the list early in the morning, and he happened to bring you back. What happened to you?"
Seeing that Qiao Zhongguo wanted to make the decision for him, Tan Hanchi felt very grateful and immediately told him everything about last night.
Qiao Zhongguo pondered for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "Have you ever thought about who wants to kill you?"
Tan Hanchi also looked confused when he heard this, "General Qiao, I really can't think of anyone who I have offended in this capital."
Qiao Zhongguo's expression didn't change when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice, "Is it possible that it's because of Chunwei?"
