"Sister Zheng, I..."
As expected, the person who blocked Zheng Yueru's arrow was none other than Jiang Xuan. At this moment, his eyelashes were trembling and his face was pale.
Zheng Yueru almost cried: "Don't say anything, don't say anything. Where is the doctor? Doctor, come quickly!"
The crossbow arrows were suitable for injuring people with hidden arrows. At this moment, Qin Changfeng reacted and shouted angrily. He lowered his body to pick up the swords dropped by the assassin and threw them out. He actually hit the assassins holding the crossbow arrows. ! Then he picked up his long sword and fought with the assassins around him.
The few remaining assassins, seeing how powerful Qin Changfeng was, ran out of time and fled quickly.
There were only a few injured assassins left on the ground.
"Who are you waiting for?"
Qin Changfeng grabbed one person and shouted fiercely.
Unexpectedly, those few people bit their tongues, tilted their heads and died.
Several people were frightened at the same time. Liu Zheng's face was as dark as water, and he ordered the remaining people to clear the battlefield immediately. In this short period of time, he lost five Yinzhou soldiers!
Then Liu Zheng returned to the carriage, looked coldly at Jiang Xuan who was being treated by the doctor, and shouted: "What's going on? Why are you here?"
He saw that the arrow penetrated very deeply into the bone and penetrated from the back, not far from the heart. It was very dangerous.
"Master, Master, I..."
Jiang Xuan looked at Liu Zheng in fear, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Brother Liu, is this the time for your interrogation?"
Zheng Yueru felt sorry for Jiang Xuan and looked back at Liu Zheng coldly. Jiang Xuan tried his best to save her life, but it was too late for her to be grateful. How could she allow Liu Zheng to curse like this?
Liu Zheng looked at Zheng Yueru with evil eyes: "Did you arrange for him to come in?"
Zheng Yueru was angry and said, "So what? It was you who asked Jiang Xuan to be my assistant. He already knew his mistake, so why can't he come?"
As he spoke, Liu Zheng was speechless as he recounted the matter. On New Year's Eve last night, the County Marquis' Mansion was bustling with activity. Under such hustle and bustle, Jiang Xuan felt even more lonely. He was alone in the corner of the County Marquis' Mansion, watching the lively scene. It was later that Zheng Yueru discovered him and offered words of comfort. Jiang Xuan, who has a young mind and whose parents died when he was young, realized his mistake and admitted that he should not have discriminated against merchants, especially Sister Zheng.
So, these two people were called Sister Zheng and Brother Xuan.
In the end, Zheng Yueru really regarded Jiang Xuan as her younger brother and loved him. Watching Jiang Xuan change from a handsome young man to a swarthy face in the past month, Zheng Yueru couldn't help feeling sad. But Jiang Xuan was punished by Liu Zheng's order, and he must still be angry. She just thought of taking him with her first and finding an opportunity to tell Liu Zheng about it. Then he would definitely not be too angry. In addition, Jiang Xuan also wanted to go to Liangzhou to see the world, so she asked Jiang Xuan to sneak into the motorcade.
But I didn't expect...
Such a thing happened on the road!
"Confused!"
Liu Zheng was yelling loudly.
Zheng Yueru stood up with a cry: "Brother Liu, knowing your mistakes can make a lot of improvements. Could it be that you won't make mistakes?"
Jiang Xuan felt even more aggrieved.
Liu Zheng gritted his teeth and shook his head: "A woman's view is really short-sighted!"
"you……"
Zheng Yueru was so angry that she was shaking all over.
Liu Zheng sighed, and immediately called a Yinzhou soldier next to him and ordered him to take off his coat. Only then did the man reveal the simple plate armor he was wearing under his coat. Zheng Yueru was dumbfounded, and then she realized what Liu Zheng was angry about. It turns out that he had known that the road was dangerous, so he equipped these Yinzhou soldiers with plate armor. Otherwise, those assassins just now were so skilled, I am afraid more than five people would have died!
But because Jiang Xuan sneaked in temporarily and naturally had no plate armor, he was so seriously injured!
"Brother Liu, I..."
Zheng Yueru's eyes turned red and she felt guilty.
Liu Zheng said coldly: "Don't be smart in the future. If you have anything, just discuss it with me!"
Hearing such cold words, Zheng Yueru felt even more aggrieved, and was about to cry, looking pitiful.
"Master, Master...it's Jiang Xuan's fault, don't blame sister!"
Jiang Xuan became anxious and tried hard to smooth things over.
Liu Zheng glared back at him and said angrily: "Do you think you are not wrong? When you recover, I will take good care of you! Doctor, how are your injuries?"
The doctor observed for a long time and frowned: "Sir, I observed that this crossbow arrow must be used by the crossbowmen of Liangzhou Prefecture. If so, judging from the length, it penetrates the body very deeply!"
"What?"
Several people turned pale at the same time. At this time, Liu Dahao also ran past the carriage and came up. When he heard this, he couldn't help but shouted angrily: "Old Chen Ping, I and you are incompatible with each other!"
Liu Zheng pondered: "Is the arrow not poisonous?"
The doctor nodded: "Although it's not poisonous, it shouldn't stay in the body for too long... But if you pull it out rashly, this young master, I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand the pain, and the wound will worsen!"
Several people's hearts sank when they heard this.
The half of the crossbow arrow left in the body was eroding Jiang Xuan's life at any time.
"Come on, pull it out for me, I'm not afraid!"
Jiang Xuan gritted his teeth and burst into tears.
Zheng Yueru was so heartbroken that her tears finally fell. If treating Jiang Xuan as his younger brother yesterday was because he felt sorry for him, then today, the two of them had this life-saving grace, and their feelings were naturally even greater.
"Are you sure your internal organs were not injured?"
Liu Zheng asked.
The doctor said: "It's true that no internal organs were hurt, it's just..."
"Bring me the wine!"
Liu Zheng shouted coldly.
Several people were shocked at the same time. Zheng Yueru said suspiciously: "Brother Liu, this is..."
"Go get that bottle of Emperor's Pure Puree!"
Liu Zheng said coldly.
Zheng Yueru's pretty face changed slightly. You must know that the bottle of Zunhuang puree, which Liu Zheng planned to dedicate to Empress Zheng, is unique among so many wines. It is very luxurious in appearance, and it is pure puree with extremely high purity and strength. high.
According to Liu Zheng, the alcohol content of that bottle of wine reached 70 degrees!
At this time, for Jiang Xuan, he was willing to take it out, and without hesitation opened the bottle, roughly pinched Jiang Xuan's chin, and cursed angrily: "Prodigal!"
Drink it in one gulp.
"Son..."
"I……"
"Shut up, you loser!"
"Do you know how much effort I put into this bottle of wine?"
"I won't sell you a thousand taels of silver!"
"Who is the prodigal? You will pay with your life, do you understand?"
"Give me a drink!"
Jiang Xuan wanted to resist, but he could not withstand Liu Zheng's intoxication. After a few mouthfuls, he was already drunk. He talked a few nonsense, called his sister a few times, and then fell asleep.
Liu Zheng looked at the doctor and gritted his teeth: "Pull it out!"
The doctor was startled by Mr. Liu's ferocious look, and cautiously began to draw the arrow.
"Pfft"!
The arrowhead was pulled out, and blood immediately poured out. Liu Zheng took the wine in his hand, poured it on the wound, and cleaned it, then asked the doctor to quickly get the golden sore medicine to stop Jiang Xuan's bleeding.
"Is this...is this okay?"
Zheng Yueru was stunned.
Liu Zheng smiled slightly.
This 70-degree puree is enough to be used as the most powerful anesthetic. It can then be disinfected and paired with this hemostatic golden sore medicine. It’s no wonder it’s not good!
Sure enough, the doctor checked his pulse for a while and said excitedly: "Don't worry, Miss Zheng, the young master's pulse is stable, just take a nap and rest!"
Several people were overjoyed at the same time.
"Zheng'er, Zheng'er, is it possible not to go to Liangzhou?"
Liu Dahao sat slumped aside, his face pale with fear. He had just left Yinzhou and was assassinated like this. How could he be okay in Liangzhou?
Liu Zheng was too lazy to pay attention to him and ordered everyone to move on. To be on the safe side, he didn't stop to tidy up when passing by Yangzhou City.
"Brother Liu, I..."
At night, everyone did not stop, had a hasty meal, and continued to march. Under the light, Liu Zheng was looking at the half arrow, lost in thought. Zheng Yueru looked guilty and hesitated to speak.
Liu Zheng waved his hand and said calmly: "There is no need to say anything more about this matter. Since you are already like brothers and sisters, take care of him in the future. This boy comes from a rough background, but he has a good background and is ruthless. He is a suitable handsome man. But he is too tough and I don't know. Being circuitous is also his shortcoming, so we should train him more in this aspect."
Zheng Yueru nodded quickly, feeling guilty and naturally not daring to say anything.
Liu Zheng looked at the arrow carefully and sneered: "Interesting, Liangzhou Crossbowmen..."
Zheng Yueru was worried: "Brother Liu, could it really be Chen Ping?"
Liu Zheng smiled and said: "Do you think Chen Ping is stupid? He wants to take my father and son, why should he use such dirty methods? Even if he can use it, he will not openly use the weapons of Liangzhou Palace. Someone must blame Liangzhou Palace. !”
Zheng Yueru thought deeply and said: "That would be..."
Liu Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "The trees in Yinzhou are now attracting the wind, and the God's Workshop has attracted countless people's envy. Yesterday's announcement of revenue and expenditure made many people vomit blood and hate... It seems that the assassins are coming for us, which is reasonable."
When Zheng Yueru heard this, her pretty face changed slightly: "Brother Liu means... the assassin is not targeting you, but targeting me?"
Liu Zheng smiled coldly: "Didn't Miss Zheng notice it? Why did the crossbowmen shoot you continuously instead of me or my father? This is the first doubt!"
"Empress Zheng returned to Liangzhou to visit her relatives. You are also the boss of the Zheng family, so you will definitely be summoned by the empress! I will kill you now and blame Liangzhou, so you can kill someone with a borrowed knife!"
Zheng Yueru's scalp went numb after hearing this, and her face looked shocked.
If you were an ordinary person, you would really believe that this assassin came for the Liu family and his son. Because the two were famous in Liangzhou at this time, people would naturally be interested in them.
However……
The more this happens, the easier it is for someone to take advantage of them! When the assassin appeared today, his first target was undoubtedly Zheng Yueru. As the person involved, she could clearly feel it!
Liu Zheng sighed and said with a wry smile: "It seems that Liangzhou is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den this time, hahaha!"
With Empress Zheng's marriage visit, the situation in Liangzhou will definitely become extremely complicated.
It took a long time for Zheng Yueru to recover from the shock and fear, and asked Liu Zheng: "What do you think Mr. Liu..."
Liu Zheng chuckled: "Miss Zheng, the matter is actually very simple."
"If you die, Liangzhou Prefecture will certainly not be able to escape its responsibility!"
"Who will benefit if Chen Ping suffers? You only need to see this, that's enough!"
Zheng Yueru took a deep breath, her delicate body trembled, and said in horror: "Baiya!"
Liu Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
Hearing these two words, he actually felt a suffocating and trembling feeling.
