But at this moment, the two tigers who were running in front turned around and chased the leading man in black, without any trace of the embarrassment they had just fled.
The two men in black could not escape despite being chased by several people and a dog. Just when Yin Jian was about to let someone go over and take them down, he saw black blood flowing from the corners of the mouths of the two men in black, and they fell limply. On the ground.
Yin Jian secretly said something bad, and hurried over to check and found that the two of them were dead, with poison hidden in their teeth. This was because they knew the mission had failed and committed suicide by taking poison.
Yin Jian and Wu Lang looked at each other and knew that this was something serious, so they quickly asked someone to take their bodies back to Zhou's house to meet the brother and sister.
Today's incident was planned by Zhou Yu long ago. More than half a month has passed since the last time Erhu was assassinated. If the time is too close, the other party will definitely be suspicious. If it is too long, she will not have the patience to wait. Half a month The month is about the same.
Fortunately, the other party fell into their trap, but unfortunately the two people they sent were already dead, and we couldn't figure out who was behind the scenes.
But we can also get a glimpse from the two people's behavior. Logically speaking, the two came to kill the two tigers. It is not illegal to kill dogs in Dazhou, and it is still without killing the two tigers.
If these two people were caught and brought to the Yamen, the case would be settled, but the two people actually committed suicide by taking poison. This is very reasonable. Presumably they didn't want them to know who was behind the scenes.
But what the brother and sister couldn't figure out was that the Quan family had no secret guards at all, and the guards in the house were not very skilled in martial arts, and they couldn't compete with the two men in black sent today.
They had sent people to keep an eye on the Quan family for so long. It was impossible that the people in the Quan family who were secretly guarding them had not noticed at all. Could it be that these two people were not sent by the Quan family?
But if it wasn’t the Quan family, who could it be?
Zhou Yu mentally reviewed the Quan family's relationship network and quickly found a clue. Tian, the eldest princess's close friend, is there any connection between the two?
Could it be that Tian was on good terms with the eldest princess, so his eldest son couldn't swallow his breath after being frightened, so he begged the eldest princess, who then sent someone to kill Erhu.
In fact, it made sense to say this, but Zhou Yu felt that she seemed to have overlooked something, but she just couldn't remember it for a while.
Since the two assassins sent were dead, this matter could only come to an end. It was expected that they would not send anyone over to kill Erhu for the time being.
In the eldest princess's mansion, the eldest princess was really surprised to hear that the plan failed. She really didn't expect to kill a dog and kill three of her secret guards. It was hard to take action now.
"We will discuss this matter later. There is no need to send anyone to Jinjia Village."
"Yes, Master."
The eldest princess felt that Zhou Yu's family was here to conquer her. Ever since Zhou Yu's family moved to Kyoto City, everything she did was not going smoothly. Several times when she went to see the emperor, she could hear the name of Jiahe County Lord from the emperor's mouth. I think the emperor must have attached great importance to the Lord of Jiahe County.
Even if he helped the emperor get into that position before, the emperor had never been so concerned about her.
And since Zhou Yu's family entered the royal family tree, the eldest princess would avoid Zhou Yu's family in everything she did, not because she was afraid, but because she could avoid unnecessary troubles.
Zhou Yu is busy in the workshop that day. This year she plans to make some dried meat to sell.
"Girl, Master Yu is here."
Zhou Yu hadn't seen Yu Zheng for more than a month. He didn't expect him to come here today, but he didn't know why he came here this time.
Thinking about Zhou Yu putting down his work, he washed his hands and took Ye'er back home. Since there was no one in the old house now, the small door between the house and the workshop wall opened again, and from the workshop It doesn't take long to walk home.
Zhou Yu was shocked when he saw Yu Zheng. Why did he look so bad?
Yu Zheng's complexion really doesn't look good now, white with a hint of green. If you didn't know better, you would have thought he was dying of illness.
"What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"
"It's okay. I suffered a little bit of wind and cold some time ago, but I'm fine now."
After hearing what Yu Zheng said, Zhou Yu didn't ask any more questions, but turned to tell Ye'er.
"Go and tell Mrs. Deng and ask her to make some medicinal food to replenish qi and blood at noon today."
"Yes, girl."
Yu Zheng just sat on the chair and listened quietly to Zhou Yu's instructions to the maid beside him. The corners of his mouth slowly curved. When Zhou Yu finished his instructions, he looked over and saw Yu Zheng looking at her.
He came to the chair next to Yu Zheng and sat down.
"If you're not feeling well, don't run around and take care of yourself at home. Why are you so anxious to come here in person? You can ask Qinglin to come over and tell you."
"It's nothing, I just thought I haven't seen you for more than a month, so I came over to take a look."
When Yu Zheng finished saying this, the tips of his ears turned slightly red. Zhou Yu, who was sitting next to him, didn't think much about it.
To Zhou Yu, it was just a normal greeting.
Okay, she can't stop them even if they want to.
Seeing Zhou Yu's reaction, Yu Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head. It seemed that he still had a long way to go in the future.
"I heard that someone wants to kill Erhu. What's going on?"
In fact, Yu Zheng had already heard from the people sent there, but that was all superficial. Yu Zheng wanted to hear what Zhou Yu was thinking.
"In my opinion, it's not because of what happened to the eldest grandson of the Quan family last time. I think it was someone sent by the eldest princess's mansion. However, the eldest princess's mansion probably won't send anyone here again a year ago. I can feel more at ease during this period. .”
Yu Zheng knew more about the relationship network among officials in Kyoto City than Zhou Yu. When he heard Zhou Yu say that the people were sent by the eldest princess, Yu Zheng was not surprised at all. He had the same idea in his heart.
But what surprised Yu Zheng the most was the attitude of the eldest princess. Although the eldest princess was a woman, she had the skills of a superior and was not a soft-hearted person. How could she send people twice because of a few words from Tian? Coming to Jinjiacun to kill Erhu was not the eldest princess' usual style of doing things.
"I'll have my people keep an eye on the princess's mansion. Don't worry, Erhu will be fine."
Zhou Yu did not refuse Yu Zheng's kindness, he responded lightly, and the two talked about other things.
"The production speed of wooden horses in your workshop is too slow. Have you ever thought about expanding production? I think the emperor thinks that if it is implemented in Kyoto City, other state capitals will also implement it on Tuesday."
Zhou Yu shook his head after hearing Yu Zheng's words.
"No, we only produce this much, and we don't plan to expand production any more. Don't underestimate businessmen. The Trojan horses made by my family are everywhere in the capital. It probably won't take a month for others to imitate them, and maybe they can be made to order. It will be better than what I have at home.”
Hearing what Zhou Yu said, Yu Zheng instantly understood what the brother and sister were thinking, and said no more.
