Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 823 It’s almost time
That night, although Lin Yi successfully escaped, the price he paid was not small.

He almost lost most of his life in Cen Yan's hands.

Cen Yan's talent in martial arts is obvious to all, and Qingshan is ashamed of this fact. However, he has a childish nature and has no big ambitions, so he is not willing to put in hard work, and Qingshan is practicing killing people. , there was no false move at all, that's why Cen Yan was repeatedly defeated by Qingshan.

But not catching Lin Yi last time was his long-standing worry. This time he was eager to try and gear up for several days, just waiting to avenge his shame. Naturally, no matter what he said, he would not let the opponent escape unscathed in the Tianxin Formation. .

Lin Yi tried his best to avoid the critical point of the sword, but it still entered from the back and came out from the chest, directly breaking one of his ribs.

After that, Lin Yi made a desperate move, thinking that no matter how weird and profound the magic circle was, he could always escape by finding a direction in mid-air and running straight ahead. After suffering some wounds, big and small, It was considered an escape from the Ji family. In the end, this time I visited Ji's house at night and came back frustrated.

The most important thing is that he can't find a decent doctor in Yanjing City now, and he doesn't dare to go to a doctor rashly - Ji Wuyan will definitely make people pay attention to various drug stores and medical clinics in the city. He will go there at this time. Seeking a doctor is no different than throwing yourself into a trap. In the past, when he was injured, he would always go to the East Palace or the Prince's Mansion. If he was injured while doing errands for someone, he would go to that person for treatment. In addition, since he was good at martial arts, most people couldn't hurt him, so he had never suffered such a serious injury.

This time, it was because of personal matters that he was seriously injured. He really didn't know how to explain why he broke into Ji's house at this juncture at night... So after escaping from Cen Yan, he went straight to another cave where he was hiding. There are some simple bandaging tools hidden there, which can temporarily stop the bleeding, but they are not enough. He needs a lot of medicinal materials, gold sore medicine, tourniquets, and even he will definitely have a high fever due to wound infection.

Should we seek help from Li Yuqi or Li Yiwei?
He hid half-dead in the cave until dawn, and finally decided to find Li Yuqi.

First of all, the conflict between Li Yuqi and Ji Wuyan is more acute, so acute that they want each other to die, and it is easier for him to reconcile in front of Li Yuqi. Secondly, Li Yiwei is a cautious and low-key man who keeps a low profile and plays the role of an idle and idle noble prince all day long. He looks unconcerned and has no interest in power. Therefore, there are no masters around Li Yiwei - at least, Not on the surface.

And Li Yuqi, at least has a sangji.

He once again treated his wounds roughly to ensure that no suspicious blood stains would be left along the way to expose his whereabouts, and then he dragged his weak body to the East Palace.

Li Yuqi was still grounded. There were already rumors outside that the prince had been abandoned by His Majesty and it was only a matter of time before he was deposed. Even Prime Minister Bian's status in the court declined sharply. Some young officials turned against him and showed favor to the Bai family. . Some officials who had offended the Bai family in the past had no way to show their kindness, so they turned to Ning Guo Gongfu in a desperate attempt to save the country - after all, Ning Guo Gongfu and the Bai family had always been on good terms.

Older veterans are always more calm.

They looked at these impetuous young people shaking their heads and laughing with full smiles and meanings, but they did not say a word to remind you - there are always some somersaults that you have to do yourself. Others will pull you and warn you that there is a trap ahead. Maybe the other party also I'll just blame you for being nosy.

Young people, it is also a good thing to suffer losses after wrestling, and to improve their memory. A certain Shangshu who had always been at odds with the Bai family said this, stroking his gray beard, squinting his eyes, like a Maitreya Buddha, and asked again after a while Behind him, the subordinates asked, "Emperor Qin...really went to Dali Temple? Didn't he say that he had a new granddaughter and he was only interested in playing with her?"

The subordinate bowed slightly and whispered back, "I heard that it is..."

A certain minister stroked his gray beard again, smiled broadly, and said after a while, "It seems... it's almost time..."

Is it almost time? What time is almost the same? How about the same? The subordinates didn't understand, and the Lord Shangshu had no intention of explaining. He walked down the steps happily, "Let's go to my house for dinner. Isn't Jiangnan cuisine popular recently? My wife invited a Jiangnan cook back from somewhere. He is very good at Jiangnan cuisine." The food is really good! Want to try it?" The servant bowed and said hello, "It's better to be respectful than to obey."

The footsteps gradually faded away.

In the side hall, Ning Xiuyuan slowly closed the account book in his hand, stood up and walked to the window. He opened the window of the side hall to let some air in. His eyes fell on the departing back of the Minister of Punishment who came to pay his respects to His Majesty, and he stared at it for a long time.

The Minister of Punishment did not see His Majesty as he wished. After Manager Zhang conveyed his holy wishes, he waited for a cup of tea outside the door and talked for a while with his subordinates. These words were naturally transmitted to the side hall. In the ears of Ning Xiuyuan who was looking at the account books.

The account book in his hand belonged to Fengchenju.

I don’t know the reason, maybe these dignitaries are worried about being affected by Fengchenju’s “unfavorable fortune”, or they are worried about offending some powerful people. In short, Fengchenju’s business has plummeted, and it has been... No glory than before.

Even a certain chef in Fengchen Juli has found another career.

Ning Xiuyuan wiped the account book in his hand with lowered eyebrows, and smiled with a raised lip. Manager Zhang's voice came from outside, "Third Master... His Majesty is awake and wants to see you."

"Come here." Ning Xiuyuan put the account book aside casually, stood up, opened the door and went out, and then told Zhang Dexian, "I would also like to ask Mr. Zhang to inform his subordinates that there is no need for anyone to come in and clean this house in the recent days."

Zhang Dexian was slightly startled, but he understood clearly - what the third master meant was that no one else could enter the house during these days. He nodded slightly and said hello with a smile, "Yes."

……

Lin Yi was picked up by Sang Ji after he fell into the Eastern Palace.

He didn't know how long he had been unconscious after the fall. Anyway, when he woke up, he was already in Li Yuqi's dormitory. The wounds on his body had obviously been treated, he had been given medicine, his high fever had subsided, and his energy level had improved. , it just hurts all over.

The doctor was not in the room, only Sanchi was standing at the door with his arms folded and leaning against the wall.

Fortunately, the prince was grounded, so the guards in the East Palace were not as prepared and their defenses were relaxed a lot. After all, there are imperial guards guarding the outside. Although it is surveillance, it is also protection in another sense. They can naturally take a breath and have a good rest inside.

Therefore, they did not notice at all that Lin Yi smashed into the wall of the East Palace.
