Although Ruoxue knew that Wu Ji was not far away, she thought that under her brother's attack, Wu Ji was too busy to take care of himself, so there was no way he could come and stop her. So Ruoxue didn't care. As a result, Ruoxue was hit by Wu Ji's palm and fell to the ground. But Wu Ji was also slashed on the shoulder by Wang Hao who was following him. Fortunately, Wu Ji escaped in time, otherwise he would have been killed with a knife. Then Wu Ji was also knocked away by Wang Hao's palm and fell to the ground.
Wang Hao was about to step forward to kill Wu Ji. Unexpectedly, Pingting abandoned Pei Fu and was suddenly hit with a palm. Wang Hao felt a palm wind coming from his back and hurriedly moved aside. But it was too late, he was hit by Pingting's palm and fell to the ground. But Pingting was also hit in the back by Pei Fu. Pingting screamed and fell into a pool of blood.
Before Pei Fu had time to smile, he was hit by a sword and fell to the ground. It turned out that after Ruoxue and Wang Hao were attacked respectively, Wu Ji had already struggled to stand up. When they saw Pingting and Chanjuan lying on the ground, they were filled with grief and immediately stabbed Pei Fu with their swords. By the time Pei Fu noticed it, the sword had already been inserted into his back.
After this respite, Wang Hao and Ruoxue also stood up. They were about to step forward and continue fighting fiercely. At this moment, the sound of people shouting and horses neighing was heard not far away. It turned out that Mrs. Wu knew that her martial arts skills were low and could not help, so she ran outside and called the officers and soldiers patrolling nearby.
When Li Gui saw this, he hurriedly let out two screams in succession. Upon hearing this, Wang Hao, Ruoxue, Tie Yong and others knew that this was a retreat signal sent by Li Zhengui. Wang Haodang took the girl's hand and flew up to the roof. Tie Yong also carried the injured Pei Fu on his back and jumped up to the eaves with Yan Ran. Li Zhen fought off the guards and flew up to the room. The disciples of the Iron Spear Sect jumped over the wall one after another to the outside and ran away.
Li Gui and others did not stop, picked up Qinggong and ran away. As soon as they left, they saw Xu Zhitang arriving with a group of guards. It turned out that he happened to be passing by with a team, met Mrs. Wu, and hurriedly led the team over.
Xu Zhitang came to the backyard and saw a mess. He saw Wu Qiong and Wu Ji covered in blood, Princess Yanmei, Chanjuan and Pingting lying on the ground, and there were many corpses.
Xu Zhitang was shocked and asked quickly: "Master Marquis, madam, what is going on?"
Wu Ji saw that it was Xu Zhitang and said hurriedly: "Xu..." Before he could finish his words, he fainted and fell to the ground. Mrs. Wu was shocked and hurriedly asked people to carry Wu Ji, Yanmei and others into the room.
Seeing that Wu Ji, Yanmei and others were unconscious, Mrs. Wu hurriedly called for a doctor to come for diagnosis and treatment. Wu Qiong simply bandaged the injury and asked the remaining guards to clean up the yard. He and Xu Zhitang went to check on the killed gangsters, and they looked at them one by one.
Xu Zhitang took off the veil of a man in black. He couldn't help but be stunned, and then shouted: "Look, this seems to be a disciple of the Iron Spear Sect?"
Wu Qiong was startled and asked quickly: "Commander Xu, you won't admit your mistake, will you? My family has no enmity with the Iron Spear Sect, so why would they cause trouble for my family?"
Xu Zhitang nodded while checking the others. Before he had taken two steps, he shouted again: "Aren't these three of the Five Iron Spear Tigers? It seems that this matter must be related to the Iron Spear Sect!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wu immediately reacted and said urgently: "Commander Xu, since you know this group of people, please go and arrest them quickly to prevent them from escaping!"
Xu Zhitang said hesitantly: "If we leave, what will you do here?"
Wu Qiong said: "You just leave ten or twenty people with us, you don't have to worry about other things." Xu Zhitang knew that the matter was urgent and said nothing more. He left twenty guards behind and left in a hurry with the rest.
At this time, the doctor was also invited over, and Mrs. Wu asked Wu Qiong to arrange guards to guard him in case those people suddenly came back to kill him. Then he took the doctor to the room and invited the doctor into the room for diagnosis and treatment.
After the doctor read it, he said with a heavy face: "Madam, the young master is fine! The princess is seriously injured. I can only temporarily use medicine to protect her heart. You have to ask for another expert." Mrs. Wu was shocked and said The doctor had to be sent away.
Mrs. Wu was so anxious that she couldn't stop crying. Wu Qiong said quickly: "Madam, don't be anxious. I will go to the palace immediately and invite the imperial doctors. I believe they can do something!"
Mrs. Wu hurriedly urged: "Go quickly, go quickly!" Gao Qiong hurried out of the house, worked hard and arrived at the palace. After meeting Wu Zetian, he briefly told the story. Wu Zetian was shocked. Wu Qiong was not only a relative of the emperor, but also an important minister of the court. Wu Zetian did not dare to delay and immediately ordered three imperial doctors to go.
Wu Zetian was worried that the gangsters would take the opportunity to attack Wu Qiong's family again, and thinking that Yanmei was a daughter, he sent someone to summon Princess Changping and asked her to take Ruyun and Ruxia to protect the Wu family.
Wu Zetian also told Wu Qiong that if the imperial doctor was helpless, let him go to Feiyun quickly and invite the medical girl Lian'er, so that he would be safe. Wu Qiong quickly thanked Wu Zetian and rushed back to the mansion with the imperial doctor.
Wu Qiong returned to the mansion and asked three imperial doctors to treat Wu Ji, Yanmei and others respectively. But after they took a pulse and made a diagnosis, they said there was nothing they could do. When Mrs. Wu heard this, she almost fainted.
Wu Qiong suddenly remembered Wu Zetian's words, and immediately sent his close servants to tell Feiyun and Liu Shui, and asked them to bring Miss Lian'er. The servants did not dare to neglect, and immediately left the house, riding their horses and whips straight to the Luling Palace. Wu Qiong sent someone to send the imperial doctor back to the palace, and then came to comfort Mrs. Wu.
Wu Qiong said: "Madam, don't worry. When Miss Lian'er arrives, everything will be fine."
Mrs. Wu cried and said: "Master Hou, the imperial doctors are helpless. What can Miss Lian'er do? Can she be rejuvenated?"
Wu Qiong said: "Madam, you don't know something. The emperor said that Lian'er is a famous medical woman. She not only has superb medical skills, but also has the heart of a Bodhisattva and has the ability to bring the dead back to life."
Although Lian'er came to the capital not long ago, her reputation as a medical woman has already spread throughout the capital. Wu Qiong and his wife had also heard of it, but they didn't know it was Lian'er who was next to Feiyun. Mrs. Wu felt a little relieved when she heard that she was a medical woman.
After hearing this, Feiyun comforted Wu Qiong and his wife, saying that the princess would definitely be a good person. Liu Shui stayed by Yanmei's side attentively to prevent accidents from happening.
Mrs. Wu said: "Young Master Lin, I think it is safer to send someone to recover Lian'er. Only with her treating Mei'er by my side can I rest assured."
Feiyun thought to himself that this was the only way to ensure nothing went wrong. He quickly said to Liangchen and Meijing: "Liangchen and Meijing, hurry up and chase Lian'er back."
Liangchen said: "Brother, I can go alone. You can't live without people around you, so let the beautiful scenery accompany you."
Feiyun said unhappily: "I feel relieved if you two go together. If anything happens along the way, there will be someone to take care of me. I have Tianxiang by my side, so you don't have to worry. Go quickly and don't waste time."
Wu Qiong continued: "Young Master Lin is right. In order to prevent accidents, you will bring twenty more guards with you to protect the medical girl from arriving in Beijing safely."
Liangchen knew that it was about the life and death of Princess Yanmei and Wu Ji, so he didn't say anything more. She and Meimei led the guards to drive a carriage and ride a fast horse out of the Marquis' Mansion, left the capital, and galloped south.
Just as Liangchen and others left, Princess Changping walked in with Ruyun and Ruxia. It turns out that she received orders from Wu Zetian and learned that Wu Qiong's home was attacked and Princess Yanmei was seriously injured and fell into a coma. The princess was frightened and rushed out of the palace.
As soon as Princess Changping came in, she hurriedly asked Mrs. Wu: "Mrs. Wu, how's Yanmei doing? Take me to see her quickly!" When Mrs. Wu saw that it was the princess, she hurriedly wiped away her tears and wanted to see her at the wedding, but was stopped by the princess.
Princess Changping said anxiously: "What time is it now, and you are still paying these false gifts? Please take me to see the princess sister."
Feiyun was moved when he saw Princess Changping's anxious look, and immediately said: "Princess, please come with me!" The princess nodded and followed Feiyun towards the backyard.
As the princess walked away, she blamed Feiyun and said: "Young Master Lin, why don't you let Liu Shui stay by the princess's sister's side and protect her? She is Liu Shui's future wife, so you don't take her seriously and let her suffer. Such serious injuries! This princess tells you, if anything happens to my sister, I will definitely destroy all nine of your clans!"
The princess felt sorry for Yanmei and scolded Feiyun fiercely. Feiyun knew that she cared too much about Yanmei and was so rude, so he didn't care about her. Soon Feiyun brought the princess to Yanmei's bed, and Liu Shui hurriedly stood up and stood aside. Yanmei is still unconscious, but her complexion has improved. When the princess saw this, she couldn't help but fall down on the bedside and burst into tears. She choked and softly called Yanmei, unable to control herself.
Mrs. Wu came in and saw that the princess was so sad. She had no choice but to hold back her sadness and said comfortingly, "Princess, don't worry too much. Miss Liangchen gave her a magical elixir, and Meier's life is safe for the time being. Shaoxia Lin has sent someone to get the doctor." Come here, daughter, and once Lian'er arrives, Mei'er will naturally be fine."
The princess had heard about Lian'er's reputation and knew that she had superb medical skills. She shed her tears and asked with some disbelief: "Young Master Lin, is Lian'er really a medical woman?"
Feiyun nodded quickly and told her that Lian'er was indeed a medical woman and that she had saved many people's lives. After hearing this, the princess' face softened slightly and she said to Liu Shui: "You have to make sure that the princess sister is fine, otherwise, I will never let you go!"
Mrs. Wu was shocked and immediately said: "Princess, this matter has nothing to do with Shui'er, you can't blame him!"
The princess snorted coldly and said: "He is a manly man, but he didn't even protect his fiancée. Shouldn't he be punished?"
Liu Shui knew that the princess was overbearing, and seeing that Mrs. Wu still wanted to speak for him, he hurriedly responded: "Princess Qi, if anything happens to the princess, I am willing to accept any punishment from the princess without any complaints." Liu Shui did not want Mrs. Wu to speak for him. Because he spoke for himself, he offended the princess.
Everyone knows that the princess relies on the emperor's favor, and her unique martial arts skills are extremely strong. No one dares to provoke her, even her martial arts will give her three points.
Seeing Liu Shui's sincere attitude, the princess softened her expression slightly and asked Feiyun: "Young Master Lin, what kind of evil thief is he that is so bold as to attack the Prince's Mansion?"
Feiyun replied: "According to Lord Wu, we only know that it is related to the Iron Spear Sect. Commander Xu has brought people over to inquire about the situation. I believe there will be news soon."
When the princess heard this, she asked again: "According to you, there may be other people involved?"
Feiyun said: "Princess, please sit down for a moment while I check the corpse of the gangster. Maybe I can find some clues!"
The princess glanced at the unconscious Yanmei and said to Ruyun: "Ruyun, you and Liu Shui are guarding here. If there is any change in the princess sister, please tell me in time! Ruxia, come with me to see those gangsters. The corpse!" Ruyun and the two agreed in unison.
The princess then came to the courtyard with Feiyun and looked at the bodies one by one. When they saw Pingting's body, they couldn't help but feel heartbroken and grief-stricken. Pingting has been following Yanmei, just like Ruyun and Ruxia follow the princess. They were as close as sisters, so they were naturally sad to see that Pingting had passed away.
Feiyun comforted them for a while before they regained their mood. Then they came to the killed disciples of the Iron Spear Sect. Feiyun found that several of them looked familiar. Feiyun closed his eyes and thought for a long time before he remembered that these people were following Tie Yong during the siege of Fengtang.
Feiyun said in a deep voice: "Marquis Wu and Commander Xu were right, they are indeed disciples of the Iron Spear Sect. I should have thought that Tie Yong should be involved!"
Princess Changping heard Feiyun suddenly say these incomprehensible words and asked hurriedly: "What are you talking about?"
Feiyun immediately told the princess: "Princess, I have seen these people, they are disciples of the Iron Spear Sect! It seems that many of the people who attacked last night are from the Iron Spear Sect."
The princess was furious and asked: "Where are the Iron Spear Sect? Take me there quickly, I will kill them with a thousand knives!"
The princess is in the capital and is a martial arts practitioner, so she has naturally heard of the Iron Spear Sect. Of course she would not take such a small martial arts sect seriously.
Feiyun said quickly: "Princess, don't be reckless. This Iron Spear Sect has a large number of people, and it has the support of the Dragon Gate, so it shouldn't be underestimated. We need to bring more people over to ensure that we can take them down in one fell swoop."
Princess Changping immediately took out a waist badge and handed it to Ruxia, saying: "Take my badge and go to see Commander Wuwei of the Imperial Palace and order him to send a thousand imperial guards to you. Come to the Iron Spear Sect as soon as possible with me. Go there with Shaoxia Lin and wait!" Ruxia took the token, turned and left.
Feiyun and the princess returned to Yanmei's room and told Mrs. Wu that they were going out for a while. Mrs. Wu nodded and asked Ruyun to follow the princess, leaving Liu Shui to guard the Hou Mansion.
Feiyun took the princess and Ruyun out of the Wu family and rode towards the Iron Spear Sect. They didn't go far when they met Xu Zhitang. Feiyun immediately stopped him and asked: "Brother Xu, how is the situation?"
When Xu Zhitang saw that the princess was there, he immediately raised his hands and saluted: "Your Highness, the common people pay their respects!"
The princess waved her hand and said: "Commander Xu, this is outside the palace, no need to be polite. Have you caught the culprit?"
Xu Zhitang thanked the princess, then turned to Feiyun and said, "Brother Lin, when I got there, they refused to admit it, so I had no choice but to come back."
Feiyun hurriedly comforted him: "This group of people is extremely cunning. It seems that they have planned it for a long time. If you didn't bring the body, the other party will naturally not admit it. I had some doubts about the Iron Spear Sect, but it's a pity that I didn't investigate in depth!"
