Brother Wanfu

Chapter 109 Assassination
Qin Shen and his party first entered the city from another city gate.

Fu Wen quickly went to the gate of the princess mansion to ask a question, then turned around and reported to Qin Shen.

"My lord, the princess hasn't arrived yet. But the concierge got the news half an hour ago, saying that the princess will definitely arrive within an hour."

From the current calculation, the princess's car should be not far from the city gate.

In any case, when the news came, the princess was still safe and there was no assassination.

Qin Shen breathed a sigh of relief, and Fu Wen asked in a low voice.

"Is the young master still going out of the city to pick up the princess?"

Qin Shen glanced in the direction of the city gate.

"go."

Hearing this, Fu Wen couldn't help thinking to himself, the young master really cared too much for the princess, it seemed that he cared much more than when he was in Qingzhou before.

But there are so many people guarding the princess, and they have to reach the city gate, so nothing should happen.

Fu Wen didn't dare to say this, and still followed behind Qin Shen.

As soon as they left the city, they saw the princess's car coming from the east road.

Seeing the princess's car from afar, Fu Wen finally saw that the young master's face softened a lot, and said something.

"Look at the staff."

After finishing speaking, he was about to ride his horse over, only to see the princess's motorcade stop for some reason.

In the distance, they couldn't see what was happening through the woods, but the shouts came along the wind.

"The princess has been assassinated! Escort! Escort!"

Fu Wen's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but think of what the young master said before he came.

But the words of this voice are somewhat unusual.

These days, when the princess encounters an assassin, she has been called "the assassin", but this time, why did she say "the princess was assassinated".

What does that mean? !
Fu Wen's eyelids twitched, and a sense of something bad rose up. The moment he thought about it, he saw the young master's black horse leaping out of the air, and heading straight for the princess' chariot.

The sun slanted westward, hiding among the mountains, and the half-dim light made everything in the field of vision blur.

Qin Shen only felt that the Western Region horse under his crotch was slower than ever before, he couldn't help beating the horse repeatedly, the horse galloped in pain, but it was still so far away from the princess's car.

Qin Shen was impatient, and the shouts around him became louder, but these shouts were too chaotic to be clear.

But when he finally arrived in one leap, and the princess was driving in front of him, he heard someone shouting.

"The general is here!"

Everyone immediately moved out of the way, and Qin Shen's horse rushed straight in front of the princess' carriage.

There was chaos in front of the princess's carriage, and He Lei personally tied a half-dead assassin tightly under him.

But on the ground, there was an unknown pool of blood. He didn't see the little girl's person, but only saw a group of people anxiously surrounding someone beside the pool of blood.

He pushed aside the people blocking the way and walked over. As far as he could see, Wei You was kneeling on the ground supporting a little girl.

The little girl's face was pale, and half of the bright yellow clothes were covered with blood. When she saw him, her bloodless lips trembled, as if she wanted to say something, but before she could say a word, she suddenly closed her mouth. squinted.

"Tian Tian?!"

*
The princess was assassinated and seriously injured.

The assassin slashed on the princess's right shoulder, and a little further inward, he slashed to the neck.

Fortunately, he was bumped into by Chang Zi, the boy who was accompanying the car at that time, and he was out of position, so he didn't hurt his vitals.

But the princess's right shoulder was still cut open with a long wound, almost exposing the shoulder bone, and after only a few breaths, her whole body was soaked in blood, and she passed out in a pool of blood.

Princess House.

The doctor came out sweating profusely.

"The bleeding has stopped, the princess's bleeding has stopped!"

Everyone outside the princess' dormitory heaved a sigh of relief.

Sun Wenjing recited the Buddha's name, "Amitabha, the Buddha will surely keep His Highness safe!"

He also didn't care about Zhang Shouyuan from the Taoist sect next to him, and begged the Buddha several times.

Zhang Shouyuan didn't care, and asked the doctor a few words, "There is no serious injury, and the bleeding has stopped. Is the princess awake?"

The doctor shook his head.

Mr. He asked, "Is there too much bleeding and the princess is still in a coma?"

The doctor said yes, "Whoever bleeds so much can't wake up for a while, it will be tomorrow morning at the earliest. You don't have to worry too much, the old man will guard the princess at night, let the princess rest in peace, and come back tomorrow morning." .”

Everyone nodded, asked a few more questions and left.

After all, they are all elderly men, so it is not easy to enter the palace to serve the princess.

Only Zhang Shouyuan didn't leave immediately, he waited for everyone to leave, and called the little maid who had just come out to ask a question.

"The general is... still in the palace?"

The little maid should say, "After the general brought Her Royal Highness back, she stayed with the princess all the time."

Logically, he shouldn't stay close, after all, the injury is on the shoulder, and the doctor needs to take off his clothes to see the injury.

But Zhang Shouyuan only looked into the hall silently for a few more breaths, and left without saying anything.

In the princess hall, the strong smell of medicine briefly suppressed the spreading bloody aura, filling every corner of the hall.

Qin Shen was sitting next to the little girl's bed, and saw that her little face was blushing, her thick eyelashes were quietly fluttering in front of her eyes, her rosy lips were so white that they were almost transparent, and her breathing was so light that it seemed as if she was not here.

After seeing the injury, the doctor cleaned his hands, and asked Tiandong Suye and the others to change into clean clothes for the princess.

Qin Shen had been sitting on the edge of the bed looking at the little girl, and now he noticed the gazes of the two maids, so he slowly got up.

Tian Dong walked over lightly, just about to change her clothes, a little dream, the little girl with her eyes tightly closed, frowned instantly with her thin eyebrows.

"Does it hurt?"

Qin Shen stopped immediately.

But the little girl didn't respond, but her brows became tighter and tighter, her breathing became a little short, and her fingertips moved a few times.

Qin Shen didn't care much, and reached out to hold her hand.

Her hands were icy and cold, Qin Shen's palms were hot, she was like shattered ice falling on his palm.

Qin Shen's heart trembled, but he slightly warmed her hand, and the tightly wrinkled eyebrows slowly relaxed.

Qin Shen was too soft-hearted.

"Okay, okay, let Tiandong Suye change your clothes for you."

The little girl closed her eyes and didn't respond, Qin Shen motioned the two servant girls to continue changing clothes, then he slowly put down her hand and left the bedroom temporarily.

The angry wind lantern swayed slightly in the corridor, and the light hit people's feet, paler than the moonlight.

Wei You and He Lei went back and forth with him, and as expected, the assassin who assassinated the princess was sent by the imperial court Xichang, and the new admiral of Xichang was Huang Xian, the eunuch who had hunted Bai Chen and Yueying in Xuzhou before.

Huang Xian is one of the most powerful servants of the emperor Zhao Yin, who specially handles Zhao Yin's shady private matters. Now that the imperial court has been suppressing the Suzheng army for a long time, he is extremely panicked, so he asked the eunuch in charge of the West Factory to come Send people back and forth to assassinate.

Finally, this time they got it.

Qin Shen recalled the scene when he saw blood stains on the ground in front of the princess's carriage.

As long as this scene flashed aside in his mind, his heart felt a twinge of pain.

Regarding the assassin's disposal, he didn't need to order any more.

He just looked at Wei You and He Lei who were guarding the princess.

Those two people knew that the princess was assassinated and injured this time, they had committed a serious crime, and they had already thought of it, the young master would never forgive lightly.

The two knelt on the ground and did not dare to raise their heads. After a long while, they heard the young master suddenly speak.

"Okay, let's go down."

The two were startled, won't the young master punish them?

Both of them looked at Qin Shen, but Qin Shen just turned around and returned to the hall when Su Ye opened the door and came out of the hall.

What is the use of punishment?
Emperor Zhao Yin was nothing more than a thorn in the flesh to the orphan of the former prince who was killed by him by distorting black and white, and it still made him restless.

She suffered such a serious injury today, but in Zhao Yin's eyes, nothing could be done at all.

He didn't want her to get hurt, but her to die!

After punishing Wei Youhe Lei, who will continue to protect the princess?Who can guarantee the safety of the princess in Zhao Yin's unstoppable hatred until he achieves his goal? !
The maids all retreated from the hall, the hall was empty, only him in front of the door was left, quietly looking at the person with closed eyes inside the tent.

How had she ever been injured so badly?How painful should it be for her?
It's better for him to take this injury for her, at least he has rough skin and thick flesh.

But even if he can get hurt for her, can he still be the prince's orphan for her?

As long as Zhao Yin does not fall down and die, she, the prince's orphan, will not be able to live in peace.

There will be more and more things like this.

But besides Su Zheng's army going north to capture the imperial city as soon as possible, what else can we do?
The most frustrating thing is that you can't find a better way in the world.

Qin Shen walked back to her bedside lightly.

The little girl was still breathing weakly with her eyes closed, and he touched her forehead, which was cool, but luckily it didn't burn.

It's just that when his palm fell on her forehead, the little girl's eyelids moved almost imperceptibly, just like her little response when he held her hand just now.

Qin Shen softened his gaze more and more, and gently rubbed her forehead with his fingertips.

Her skin is very thin, especially when it is slightly cold, it seems to be more delicate than the excellent suet jade.

The fragrance of medicine is flying in the hall, and there is no one else.

There were only two people left, one lying in the tent and the other sitting by the bed.

In the huge bedroom, the distance between the two was extremely close, Qin Shen couldn't help lowering his head.

Her weak breathing finally became clear in his ears.

She closed her eyes and knew nothing.

But Qin Shen could sense every breath she took, and he could capture her subtle pulse with his fingertips rubbing against her forehead.

He lowered his head, intertwined with her breathing, and felt her pulse.

A warm kiss lightly landed on her forehead.

Warm, soft and long.

Qin Shen closed his eyes.

He never thought that he would like a little girl, so far.

It's just that she doesn't know yet.

But it doesn't matter, the long night is very slow, he will always guard her until dawn.

*
The next day Qin Tian woke up slightly, and the two servant girls hurriedly called the doctor over.

The doctor checked Qin Tian's pulse, and he let out a sigh of relief, "The princess is finally safe, and the next step is to take care of her injuries."

Qin Tian asked a few words about his injury, and thanked the doctor for his diagnosis and treatment.

When the doctor went down, he saw Tian Dong and Su Ye with black eyes, and said, "I was in a coma all night, you were all exhausted last night, go and rest quickly."

Tian Dong's eyes turned red when he heard this, "The princess is going to scare the servants to death, and the servants dare not rest until they see the princess recovering."

Su Ye also wiped the corners of her eyes.

"Why is the princess still worried about us? We are not tired, but we are"

"What is it?" Qin Tian asked.

Both Su Ye and Tiandong looked at her.

"On the contrary, the young master guarded the princess here all night."

Naturally, Qin Tian didn't remember anything about what happened when she was in a coma. She heard Tiandong and Su Ye's words right now, and recalled in a daze. Before she closed her breath and eyes, she saw the person who came back suddenly.

Qin Tian was stunned for a moment.

"Brother. Did you guard me all night?"

Both maids nodded.

Just at this time, there was a communication sound outside the hall.

"Princess, the general and Lord Qin are here."

As soon as Qin Tian heard that Qin Shen and Qin Guanzhong had come, he quickly had someone invite them in.

"Wake up? Does it still hurt?"

Qin Guanzhong's footsteps fell behind Qin Shen, and he saw him walk to the bed in two steps, and put his hand on her forehead to test her temperature.

His movements were extremely natural, but Qin Guanzhong paused slightly.

And Qin Tian didn't expect that he suddenly put his hand on her forehead.

But the result of his temperature test was a little wrong, he frowned.

"Why is it a little hot?"

Just as Qin Tian wanted to explain, the doctor said that it is normal to be a little hot.

But before she could speak, he touched her cheek again with his knuckles.

Qin Tian was startled, and forgot to explain.

But he still felt something was wrong, and after pinching her ears, he shook his head and called the doctor.

"It is said that the princess has a fever, please come and see the doctor again."

Only then did Qin Tian come back to her senses, and she quickly explained that the doctor said that a little heat is not a big problem.

"Really?"

"Really!" Qin Tian said hastily.

He glanced at her, and then he didn't invite anyone else.

Qin Tian glanced at him quietly, the place he touched just now was even hotter now.

They have always been close, but when did they become so close?

Qin Tian thought that he didn't want her to watch when he was injured and changed his dressing before, but today
This was not the time to think about it, so she hurriedly asked Qin Guanzhong.

"Why are you here?"

Qin Guanzhong had been looking at Qin Shen just now, and this time Qin Tian opened his mouth, he just came back to his senses.

He walked forward and stopped a foot away from the princess's tent.

Rao is a child raised by himself, now that she has become a princess, he can't go beyond the rules.

He looked at Qin Tian's pale face, and remembered that Qin Shen told him just now that the little girl was hurt on her shoulder, and her bones were almost exposed.

Qin Guanzhong's voice was a little hoarse.

"Is your arm okay? If it hurts badly, eat something sweet. It won't hurt if you eat something sweet."

Qin Tian laughed when he heard it.

When she was a child, she couldn't help but stumbled and fell, and once she just came back from Li's house, she saw her father's guard in front of the door.

Her father may not be able to come once every half a month. When she was young, she looked forward to her father's return the most, and when she saw her father came back, she ran to the house and knocked on the floor in front of the door. On, both hands and knees were scratched.

She cried in pain, and her father hurried over and hugged her.

"Oh, it hurts to fall. Tian Tian is good, eat something sweet and it won't hurt."

At the dinner table that day, half a table of beets was cooked, and her father ate a big meal with her, as if the place where she fell really didn't hurt anymore.

So many years have passed.

He is no longer her father, but he still coaxes her to play with the words he used to lie to children.

Qin Tian pursed his lips and smiled.

"You lied to me again."

　good night
