Chapter 102 It's Over

At the critical moment, Zhu Jing, who was toasting someone, suddenly flew up and stood in front of the emperor.There was only a "poof...", the dagger pierced his shoulder vigorously, and blood flowed profusely immediately.

This scene was just an instant thing, and when everyone realized it, Zhu Jing had already fallen to the ground.

Everyone panicked immediately.All the guards rushed up at this moment, and grabbed the woman in a hurry.

It was only at this time that everyone realized it. All the ministers in the field panicked, but some women and children ran towards the door frantically, and the matter was completely out of control.

After being stunned for a moment, Nan Gongxi hurriedly ordered: "Quickly send the imperial physician! Seal the entire Hou's mansion, and no one is allowed to enter. This king will go to see Lord Zhu's injuries first, and will try the case himself later!"

After finishing speaking, a cold light flashed in Nangong Xi's eyes, and she directed the guards to carry Zhu Jing to the back.

It wasn't until this time that Emperor Nangong Yao came to his senses, and hurriedly ordered in a loud voice: "Hurry up, send the imperial physician Liu from the Imperial Hospital to treat Zhu Aiqing!"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly left his seat and also went to the back room.

After everyone carried Zhu Jing into the house, a guard's voice came from the door: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince."

Zhu Jing in the room frowned when he heard the voice.

Then, the door was pushed open, and Nan Gongxi walked in from the outside. He had no expression on his face, but his eyes were very sharp. Looking at Zhu Jing, he said, "What a trick! I'm here to attend your wedding! I'm afraid that after today, even if I talk about dead bat soldiers in front of my father, my father will not believe that they are the people of Lord Hou! Lord Hou is really scheming!"

"His Royal Highness, forgive me for my ignorance, old... old minister, I don't know what you are talking about!"

After hearing the prince's words, Zhu Jing said with a confused face, it seems that what happened today was really just a coincidence.

"Hmph! Since Lord Hou is pretending to be confused, then I will not say any more, and only send four words to Master Hou, so that I can take care of myself."

After finishing speaking, Nangong Xi turned and walked out.However, as soon as he raised his leg, the guard's voice came from outside the door: "The emperor is here." Then, Nan Gongyao, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, hurried in.

"My son has seen his father."

Nangong Xi hastily leaned over to salute.

"Free gift!"

Nangong Yao waved his hand, apparently he didn't have time to talk to Nangongxi, but looked at Zhu Jing who was lying on the bed, and asked with concern: "Zhu Aiqing, you sacrificed your life to save me, your loyalty is commendable, I don't know that Aiqing is better now ?”

"Your Majesty's words like this are really frustrating...frustrating my humble minister!"

As Zhu Jing spoke, he struggled to get up.

"Aiqing, please lie down, I forgive you for your innocence!"

Nangong Yao reached out and held him down.

"The emperor was assassinated in the minister's house, which made the minister terrified! Rescuing the emperor is what a minister should do. The emperor treats the minister like this, and the minister feels ashamed!"

Zhu Jing said with a face of shame again.

"Zhu Aiqing don't want to say that. Although he was assassinated in your house, the assassin was clearly coming for me. He must have inquired about my whereabouts before he lurked in your house. It's not your fault. It's just that the assassin is It must be judged strictly!"

Nangong Yao said and sat in front of Zhu Jing's bed.Having said that, he turned his head and told Nangong Xi: "Prince, you should go and interrogate that female assassin immediately! You must find out who is behind the scenes."

"Yes, my son obeys!"

Nangongxi clasped his fists in response, but he didn't give any hope in his heart. He firmly believed that Zhu Jing had arranged all of this. Since he could arrange it like this, he must have considered everything. The assassin is afraid...

Thinking of this, he glanced back at Zhu Jing slightly, only to see that he was also looking at him, with a provocative smile on his lips.

He turned around and headed for the door, but as soon as he stepped out of the threshold, a guard rushed over, knelt down in front of him and said, "Report to His Royal Highness, that female assassin...the female assassin committed suicide by biting her tongue."

"..."

Nangong Xi was silent, so she could only say: "Understood, let's go."

"Yes."

The emperor and Zhu Jing in the room naturally heard these conversations.Emperor Nangong Yao sighed after hearing the words: "It seems that this mastermind is definitely not a simple person, but Ai Qing, don't worry, I will send someone to continue the investigation."

Zhu Jing hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

At this time, there was a burst of noisy footsteps outside the door, and then someone knelt down and saluted, "Your Majesty, Lord Hou, Imperial Physician Liu has come to treat Lord Hou."

"Xuan."

Nangong Yao said in a simple and clear way.

The imperial physician walked in carrying the medicine box, but Nan Gongxi backed out silently.

After leaving the door, he moved forward all the way, originally planning to go to Dongli Garden to see Zhu Zixin, but after thinking about it, he turned back and turned back to the Prince's Mansion.

This wedding was only halfway through, but unexpectedly, such a thing happened. After being bandaged by the imperial doctor, Zhu Jing struggled to get up, went to the front hall to apologize to the guests, and sent everyone away. scattered.

The bride was sent to the bridal chamber of Guihua Garden, and sat alone for a long time without moving.

At this time, suddenly, a holly voice sounded outside the door: "Excuse me, madam, who are you? This is the bridal chamber of Master Hou and my lady, you are not allowed to enter."

"Hmph, is it the bridal chamber? Today, my old lady just came to see how beautiful the bride is, so she won Master Hou's heart."

A jealous woman's voice sounded from outside the house.Hearing this voice, Chu Hong's body, which had not moved all this time, trembled slightly. This person must be the legendary Second Aunt.

"You really can't enter! Otherwise, the servants will call someone! If Lord Hou finds out that you broke in privately, I don't know how he will feel."

Outside the house, Dongqing's voice came again. It seemed that the second aunt was about to barge in.

"Hmph, master? Now that master has been stabbed by an assassin, why would he care about this place? I'm afraid that tonight, your young lady, the new wife of our Zhu family, will have to guard the vacant room alone!"

The second aunt said the four words "guarding the vacant room alone" very loudly, and paused every word, as if she was afraid that the people in the room would not hear.

However, hearing these four sons, Chu Hong suddenly reached out and lifted the red hijab on top of her head, with a relaxed look on her face.

She walked out of the door slowly and stood at the door. In the summer evening, the sun shone warmly on her body, reflecting her young and beautiful appearance, which was very beautiful.She looked at the two who were pushing and shoving, and said softly, "Holly, don't be rude."

Dongqing was startled when she heard the words, she hurriedly stopped, looked at her young lady, her face was stunned, and said, "Miss, why did you take off your hijab yourself? This...is unlucky!"

"No problem!"

Chu Hong said.

After finishing speaking, she glanced at Second Aunt, and said: "It seems that this is Second Aunt."

The second aunt was taken aback when she heard the words, and looked at Chu Hong blankly, with a look of astonishment on her face. It was because she did not expect that this young lady of the Chu family was so beautiful.Standing in front of her, she couldn't help but feel inferior, and even her movements were a little awkward.However, when she thought that this woman took away the position of Mistress Zhu that should belong to her, she couldn't get angry in her heart. Regardless of her demeanor, she pointed her finger at Chu Hong and said, "So what?" ? If you have heard my name, you should know how powerful I am! Although I am just an aunt in this Hou's mansion, the master has always regarded me as more precious than his wife. I think, even if you come now , can't change the situation, if you are sensible and obediently listen to me in the future, I may still be able to live in peace with you, if not, I have plenty of means."

After speaking, Second Aunt turned around and left.

At this time, Chu Hong's faint voice came from behind: "I may not like what you like, so why should I fight with you?"

After speaking, he turned and went back to the house.

"..."

Second Aunt's body froze, she thought for a while, but she still didn't understand the meaning of Chu Hong's words, so she had to leave resentfully.However, when the time came, he was still immersed in his thoughts. It seemed that he was still thinking about Chu Hong's words just now.

Zhu Zixin lay on the bed for another half a day, and the effect of the medicine didn't completely wear off until dusk. She stroked her head and sat up, seeing Zhu Ziyi sitting on the head of her bed, she said in embarrassment: "Brother, I... Today is really embarrassing!"

"I don't blame you! It's all Zhu Ziqi's good deeds. I will never spare her."

Zhu Ziyi said, handed over a glass of water, and said: "Drink your saliva first, the doctor said that your throat is scalded, and you can only eat some liquid food for a few days. Avoid spicy food, you should pay attention to yourself!"

The words are full of pity.

"I see!"

Zhu Zixin took the cup in his hand, took a few sips of water, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked, "How is the bride? Didn't anything go wrong with Daddy's marriage?"

"Heh, I haven't seen the true face of the bride so far, and something really happened at the banquet."

Zhu Ziyi said.

"what happened?"

Zhu Zixin asked again.

"Someone assassinated the emperor, Dad blocked the knife for the emperor, now he is injured, the banquet is over, and now the guests have all gone home."

Zhu Ziyi's tone was a little helpless, and he said with a wry smile.

"Sure enough, something happened! What about the assassin? Have you caught him yet?"

Zhu Zixin asked again.

"Oh! Don't mention it, I caught it, but I bit my tongue and killed myself."

Zhu Ziyi shrugged helplessly.

"The method is really clever!"

Zhu Zixin couldn't help admiring.

"Who do you say is clever?"

Zhu Ziyi didn't know why, so he asked.

Zhu Zixin just smiled and lowered his head to drink her water.

Seeing that she didn't answer him, Zhu Ziyi slapped him on the thigh and said, "You don't have to say it, anyway, regardless of whether you are smart or not, the matter is already over."

After speaking, he got up, walked towards the door, and said as he walked, "I'm going to see Hanyu, I haven't seen her for a long time."

Zhu Zixin smiled and said, "Go, go."

After finishing speaking, he retracted his body back into the quilt, and just about to close his eyes, Zhu Ziyi's head appeared at the door again, saying: "You are better now, don't sleep all the time, go outside and walk around."

"understood."

Zhu Zixin closed his eyes and said lazily.

However, just when she was about to fall asleep again, Zhu Ziyi's head appeared at the door again, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't think about that anymore, don't worry, brother will definitely avenge you! "

Zhu Zixin didn't speak, just picked up a pillow and threw it over, Zhu Ziyi hurriedly avoided, this time he never came back.

Zhu Ziyi smiled, and left in peace.
