Chapter 244 Insightful

Ba Ye looked at Mao Tongtong in surprise, not believing that such words would come out of her mouth.This insight can be seen more clearly than many men!
"Tongtong is very insightful." Ba Ye said.

"Ah?" Mao Tongtong was startled, what did she say?Ba Ye thinks she has insight?Just saying something obvious.

Ba Ye said again: "In this world, no matter whether it is done by Han people or Manchus, as long as it can really make the people live and work in peace and contentment, it is a good emperor. If it weren't for the uselessness of the previous emperor, how could my Manchus enter the customs?"

"Master, is the prince seriously injured? The assassins are dead, so it's not possible to find out who did it?" Mao Tongtong asked.

"The prince is only injured on the skin, nothing serious." Ba Ye said: "This assassin is nothing more than sent by those organizations. Even if there is only a corpse left, we can still find clues."

"Then will our trip beyond the Great Wall continue? Or will we leave for Beijing tomorrow?" Mao Tongtong asked again.

"Of course we must continue! Otherwise, it will appear that we are afraid!" Ba Ye said.

Mao Tongtong subconsciously hugged Ba Ye even tighter.The journey will continue, and I don't know if there will be another assassin.

"Don't be afraid, the assassination was unsuccessful this time, and they won't come again. Now that the vigilance has been strengthened, if you come to assassinate at this time, wouldn't that be hitting a stone with an egg! Assassins wouldn't be so stupid." Ba Ye said.

Mao Tongtong felt that Ba Ye's words were quite reasonable, so his expression relaxed immediately.

Eighth Master pulled her to sit down beside the bed, and said: "I'm going to help Fourth Brother investigate the mastermind behind this time, I'm afraid I'll be a little busy. If you're in a hurry, you can also drop by. Just remember Just don't leave the camp."

"The servants are not going anywhere." Mao Tongtong said.

She doesn't like dealing with those grids.What they talk about together is nothing more than clothes and jewelry, or they start to show off how they are favored, or talk bad things about Fujin behind their backs.

It is not a good thing to hear too much of this kind of unnutritious words.She might as well do some embroidery or practice handwriting quietly by herself.

"I'm also afraid that you'll be bored. If you can live alone, you don't have to go out." Ba Ye said.

"You don't have to worry about your servants when you're busy. With green bamboo and green seedlings to accompany you, if you can't do it, your servants can play cards with them to pass the time." Mao Tongtong said.

That night, Mao Tongtong was nestled in the arms of Ba Ye.But just like that, she couldn't sleep well.

Such things as assassination have only been seen in film and television dramas.Although I haven't personally experienced this meeting, but when I think of the assassin carrying out the assassination not far from me, I will feel fear in my heart.Mao Tongtong, who grew up in a peaceful environment, never experienced this.So, she was really terrified.

In the second half of the night, she also had a nightmare. If Ba Ye hadn't woke her up in time, she would have had a nightmare.

Ba Ye knew that she was very frightened, so he patiently coaxed her to sleep. It was not until it was almost dawn that Mao Tongtong fell asleep in a daze.

At dawn, Ba Ye got up early.As soon as he left Mao Tongtong's camp, he received the order from Kangxi just now.Because the prince was injured, he had to rest in place for two days, and he will not be on his way for these two days.

Ba Ye thought that the prince's arm was injured, so he smiled.

When Mao Tongtong woke up, the sun had already been out for a long time.When she opened her eyes and saw that Ba Ye was not around, she panicked and called Qing Zhu immediately.

"Gege woke up? Have you slept well?" Qing Zhu asked with concern.

"Where is Master?" Mao Tongtong said.

"I went out early in the morning." Qingzhu said.

"Oh." Only then did Mao Tongtong remember what Eighth Master told her yesterday that he was going to investigate what happened last night.

"Why didn't you call me at this hour today, are you leaving?" Mao Tongtong asked again.

She was a little sleepy.In the past few days, she was woken up early by Qingzhu, and then slept back in the carriage.Today is really strange.

"I heard that it's because the crown prince was injured. Lord Long Live ordered not to rush for two days, and wait for the crown prince to recover from his injury before leaving." Qing Zhu said.

"The rumors are indeed good, the emperor is really kind to the prince." Mao Tongtong said.After all, he was brought up by himself since he was a child, and the prince at this time has not threatened his imperial power, so it is natural that the father and son have a deep affection.

"Gege, this servant also heard a piece of news." Qingzhu said: "I heard that the prince was not alone in the camp last night. So when the assassin entered, someone blocked the prince's knife, so that the prince was not hurt. heavier."

"Do you know who blocked the knife?" Mao Tongtong asked.

"Your servant doesn't know yet. It's not easy to inquire about what happened yesterday. Everyone keeps it secret." Qingzhu said.

"At that time, it is unlikely that the prince was discussing matters. It is probably the woman next to him." Mao Tongtong analyzed: "He brought three women this time, and the one who blocked the knife must be one of them. You go Find out, as long as it's not my cousin."

"Yes, I'm going now." Qingzhu replied, and called Qingmiao to wait for Mao Tongtong to get up.

At this time, the whole camp spread the news that there was an assassin last night.In addition, Kangxi ordered not to hurry today, so everyone stayed in the camp and dared not come out.So much so that the tent during the day has a rare quiet.

The news is not difficult to find out.It took Qingzhu a little effort to find out.

Mao Tongtong didn't know what to say when he heard that Chen Ruyu blocked the knife.After a long time, she sighed softly and said, "I should congratulate her."

"Ge Ge why?" Qingzhu was puzzled.How can you say congratulations when you are injured?
"Block the knife for the prince, you said this life-saving grace, will the prince be moved and remembered?" Mao Tongtong asked her back.

Qing Zhu nodded, and said: "That's natural. If someone treats a servant like this, he will definitely remember it for a lifetime."

Mao Tongtong smiled and didn't explain anymore.And Qingzhu also understood now.Can the prince remember being moved, is he still far from being a pet?Sure enough, I should congratulate this Chen Gege, her good days are coming soon.

All day long, Mao Tongtong did not step out of the tent as he said to Ba Ye last night.

The eighth master met the fourth master early, and went to check the assassin's body together to see if they could find some clues.

Today, there are several organizations among the Han Chinese who oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.What Tiandihui, Honghuahui, Bailianjiao.Almost all of them are in the Jiangnan area.This will be to find out which organization sent the assassin last night.

Things didn't go well.The clues that can be found on the corpse are extremely limited.The weapon is an ordinary broadsword, nothing special.There is nothing superfluous on the body.And the poison hidden under the root of the tooth is also very common, not something rare.
