After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 301 What is her purpose?

Fortunately, Qing Yuan was not injured in any vital parts. After the doctor's treatment, the bleeding stopped. However, due to excessive blood loss, he fell into a coma.

"Doctor, when will she wake up? Is the wound okay?" Qiao Jingjing asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, ma'am. The girl's wound has been bandaged. There's no problem. Besides, the girl is young and in good health. She will wake up soon." The doctor said gently.

Qiao Jingjing felt relieved after hearing this. "Thank you, doctor. Please prescribe some medicine for my girl. Make sure to use the best medicine."

"I'll go get the medicine right away." The doctor nodded, gave a few instructions, and went out.

Qiao Jingjing sat down beside the bed and looked at the pale and unconscious Qing Yuan. She was deeply moved.

But why is this girl so bold?

Wasn't she afraid when she saw the knife stabbing at her?

He actually rushed forward without hesitation and blocked the knife for her.

The one lying here was her.

Qiao Jingjing tucked the quilt for Qingyuan and found that the room was quite cold, so she quickly asked Jinkui to find a stove and charcoal fire.

Jinkui was relieved to see that Qingyuan was fine and hurried to look for her.

After a while, footsteps were heard outside, and soon the door was pushed open.

Qiao Jingjing originally thought it was a doctor, so she turned around and was stunned when she saw it was Lu Xingzhi, "Why are you here?"

She was so busy just now that she didn't even think about asking someone to go to Lu's house to deliver a message.

Lu Xingzhi appeared here at this moment, probably because the driver behind him went back to report the news.

"How are you? Are you okay?" Lu Xingzhi strode in, with a tense face, and checked her nervously.

"I'm fine." Qiao Jingjing quickly grabbed his hand and shook her head, "The one who was injured was Qing Yuan. This girl blocked the knife for me. This time it's all thanks to this girl."

Thinking of the scene at that time, she felt a little scared.

Who could have thought that someone would rush out and kill her?

Lu Xingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, held her cold hand, looked at the unconscious maid on the bed, and asked, "Is Qingyuan okay?"

"The doctor said he's fine, but he's still unconscious and we don't know when he'll wake up." Qiao Jingjing said, sighing, looking at Qing Yuan with worry for a while, and then said, "By the way, I don't have anything to do here, you can go back first."

Lu Xingzhi heard that she wanted to stay, so he paused and said softly, "Qing Yuan has done a great job in protecting her master. I will reward her handsomely. There are servants here to take care of her. You can go back with me first."

Qiao Jingjing shook her head, "How can I do this? Qing Yuan was injured because of me. I have to wait until she wakes up before I can feel at ease."

Lu Xing knew: "I know you are grateful to her and worried about her, but there is blood on your dress, shouldn't you go back and change clothes first?"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jingjing looked down and discovered that her dress was covered in blood.

I was so busy worrying about Qing Yuan that she didn't even notice it.

At this moment, Jinkui came back with charcoal fire, followed by several maids from the Lu Mansion.

After the maids paid their respects, they quickly lit a charcoal fire in the house. They also brought soft and warm quilts, replaced the quilts in the clinic, and covered Qing Yuan with them.

After everything was arranged, Jinkui said to Qiao Jingjing, "Madam, I have servants and others here. Please go back with the master."

Qiao Jingjing was a little hesitant.

Qing Yuan was injured for her, and she was still worried until she woke up. But Qing Yuan was unconscious, and it was cold outside. If she was sent back to the Lu residence, she might be moved around and her wound would be hurt, so she could only stay in the clinic for the time being.

Seeing that she was still worried about Qing Yuan, Lu Xingzhi went out to find a doctor and asked about the situation. After confirming that Qing Yuan would be fine, he returned and said, "I asked the doctor, and he said Qing Yuan would be fine. Jinkui will take care of her here. You can come back with me first."

Hearing this, Qiao Jingjing had no choice but to nod and said to Jinkui, "Take good care of Qingyuan. If anything happens, report it in time."

"Don't worry, ma'am. I will." Jinkui replied respectfully.

Qiao Jingjing glanced at Qing Yuan again before following Lu Xingzhi back.

As soon as she returned to the Lu Mansion, she went to wash up first.

When she changed into clean clothes and came out, Lu Xingzhi was no longer in the room.

She sat down on the couch and thought about what happened today.

The criminal was obviously coming for her, but who wanted to kill her?

She believed that she had not offended anyone, and the only people she could think of who had had verbal disputes with her were Qin Yue'er and Madam Qin.

Thinking of these two people, her face darkened.

Could it be that the people who wanted to take her life today were Madam Qin and her daughter?
You can't blame her for thinking about the two of them, because Aunt Chen was stabbed to death by a gangster not long ago.

She had already suspected that Aunt Chen's death was related to Madam Qin, and today, the same thing happened to her again.

She vaguely felt that these two things were closely related and should have been done by the same person.

The knife stabber was also wearing a face mask, so he might be the same person.

The person behind these two events must be the same person.

If so, what is the purpose of the person behind the scenes?
Aunt Chen's death can be said to be a silencing of witnesses, but what about her? Why was she killed?
She and Aunt Chen had no relationship at all, and she had only met her twice. But if the person behind the scenes was Madam Qin, then she and Aunt Chen were assassinated separately, and the two events must be closely related.

While he was thinking about it, Lu Xingzhi came back.

Seeing that his face looked a little strange, Qiao Jingjing asked, "What's wrong? Where did you go just now?"

"The government officials reported that when they caught the criminal, he was already dead." Lu Xing knew.

"Dead?" Qiao Jingjing frowned.

"Yeah." Lu Xingzhi nodded, "Chongxi went to see it. The criminal looked like he committed suicide out of fear of punishment, but he was actually killed by someone."

Qiao Jingjing was startled, "Is he being silenced?"

"From the current perspective, it should be." Lu Xing knew.

Qiao Jingqing said with an unpleasant expression: "The person behind the scenes is so cruel. But how did the government officials determine that the gangster was the one who wanted to assassinate me? At that time, he had a veil over his face, so his appearance could not be seen clearly."

"It was confirmed by Manager Lin and others. They said that the criminal had a limp when he escaped, and the dead man was indeed lame." Lu Xingzhi explained.

Qiao Jingjing was surprised, "I see."

Lu Xingzhi sat down next to her and said, "Don't go out for the time being. Stay in the mansion."

Qiao Jingjing was stunned for a moment, "Are you worried that the person behind the scenes will not give up and will harm me?"

"Yeah." Lu Xingzhi nodded.

Qiao Jingjing pursed her lips and said angrily, "I never thought that these people would dare to commit crimes in the streets under the feet of the emperor. The person behind the scenes is really too rampant. But I think these things must be related to Madam Qin."
