King Yan and his party entered Pingjiang Mansion by boat.
The officials of Pingjiang Prefecture had already received the news, and they were all waiting at the pier to welcome him. The leading official was over fifty years old, had a beautiful beard, and looked elegant and elegant.
At this time, this beautiful beard was trembling in the wind, showing confusion and desolation for no reason.
"Prefect Ma," an official whispered: "His Royal Highness King Yan was assassinated on the way, and his bodyguards were seriously injured. His Highness King Yan did not return to the capital, but still came to Pingjiang Mansion. This shows the temper of His Highness King Yan."
is not that right?
Magistrate Ma was more frightened than anyone else. As the parent official of Pingjiang Prefecture, a massacre occurred under his rule, which alarmed the emperor and sent King Yan to investigate the case. As a result, King Yan met a group of daring assassins on the way.
No matter how he thought about it, he would not be able to escape.
It's easy to lose one's hat. I just hope to save my life and that of my whole family.
The three boats came slowly and slowly arrived at the pier.
King Yan and his party got off the boat.
The bitter Zhifu gathered his energy and stepped forward to greet him. He knelt down and made a full salute: "I have seen His Highness King Yan." As soon as Zhifu Ma knelt down, dozens of officials behind him immediately knelt on the ground.
In the past two days, King Yan had eaten little, slept little, and was preoccupied. His face was somewhat gloomy, but his eyes were still sharp.
"Everyone, please get up." King Yan did not reach out to help the magistrate, but said in a cold voice: "I have been ordered to come here to handle the case. When you need to ask questions, I will summon you. The rest of the time, you can each go about your own errands.
.”
That being said, His Highness King Yan came to Pingjiang Mansion in person, how could the officials of Pingjiang Mansion dare to act ignorant?
After some pleasantries, Magistrate Ma respectfully asked His Highness Prince Yan to settle down at the Magistrate's Yamen first.
This is also an official practice.
His Highness King Yan said, "I can go and settle down myself."
Magistrate Ma was stunned and wanted to ask His Highness where to settle down, but he did not have the courage, so he agreed. When His Highness King Yan and his entourage set off to leave, Magistrate Ma immediately sent someone to follow them secretly to inquire.
Within an hour, the people sent out came back.
His Highness King Yan actually went to Cui's house to settle down.
Pingjiang Prefecture is prosperous and prosperous, and there are many wealthy businessmen. The Cui family is also the top among the wealthy businessmen. Such wealthy businessmen have always been a good place for officials to eat, drink and get food.
However, the Cui family has an in-law who is a third-grade minister, which hinders them a lot.
I really didn’t expect that the Cui family would now even be attached to His Highness King Yan.
Even Magistrate Ma was amazed by his ability.
"Master Magistrate, I will continue to keep an eye on the Cui family. If there is any movement, I will report it immediately."
Magistrate Ma came back to his senses and repeatedly warned: "Don't disturb the Cui family rashly, and don't let His Highness notice it."
In the capital city, the fourth entrance is already a big house.
When they arrived in Pingjiang Prefecture in the south of the Yangtze River, the wealthy businessmen lived in large and carefully built gardens. The Cui family's garden was rich and elegant, and was quite famous in Pingjiang Prefecture.
The accompanying doctor of the Ministry of Justice and several officials were accommodated in the Cui family along with His Highness King Yan, and they had to sigh and lament in secret.
"Look at you and me, as officials in the capital, the house we live in is less than that of a merchant."
"I don't know what kind of ability this Cui family has, but it actually clings to His Highness King Yan."
"I heard that the Cui family and Feng Shilang's house are related by marriage. The third girl from Feng Shilang's house is the granddaughter of the old lady of the Cui family. She has been growing up in the Cui family since she was a child. Could it be that His Highness King Yan did this because of Feng Shilang's face?
That’s why you praise the Cui family so much?”
"Forget it! Mr. Feng himself doesn't even have the face to face His Highness. Let alone an in-law."
"Why is that? It can't be because of Guard Shen, right?"
"This is possible. Guard Shen's biological father died to save His Highness. This time, Guard Shen blocked a sword for His Highness and almost lost his life. It is reasonable for His Highness to favor Guard Shen and benefit the Cui family. among.”
Everyone just talks in private and that's it.
Anyway, His Highness King Yan wants to live in the Cui family and cannot tolerate their talkativeness, so he can just live with His Highness.
…
"Fourth brother,"
In a courtyard in Cui Garden, Shen Jia's excited voice came out: "Do you know where this is?"
Shen You couldn't move and lay on the wooden board. He was carried into the house and carefully moved to the bed. During this process, the wound on his chest was inevitably involved.
Shen Youjun's face was pale and he didn't say a word, with beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
Shen Jia was usually careless, but he also learned to take care of others in the past two days. He took out a dirty and smelly handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped it on Shen You's forehead, and then stuffed it into his sleeve.
Shen You: "..."
Shen You endured it silently.
Shen Jia continued to say excitedly: "This is the Cui family. I didn't expect that His Highness Prince Yan would actually live in the Cui family's garden."
The Cui family? Shaojun’s cousin’s maternal family?
Surprise flashed in Shen You's eyes.
strangeness!
When did His Highness King Yan have such a relationship with the Cui family?
Is it because of Feng Shilang's face? No, His Royal Highness, the King of Yan, is a dignified prince, and there is no need to give Feng Shilang this face. Is it for his own bodyguard? Thinking like this is too self-promoting and too ridiculous. Already.
There must be some hidden secret in this!
Also, Mrs. Xu was captured by Princess Qin’s people, and Cui Yuanhan disappeared. Who was in charge of managing and settling so many people?
"Shaojun's cousin grew up in the Cui family." Shen Jia said enthusiastically: "You are Shaojun's cousin's fiancée, and you are living in the Cui family again this time. Maybe you will be able to meet Shaojun's cousin soon. Grandma."
How can this be.
Xu still doesn't know where she is hidden.
Shen You's eyes dimmed, and he felt inexplicably heavy.
Shen Jia rambled for a long time without waiting for Shen You's response. He glanced over and saw Shen You's gloomy expression, and was shocked: "Fourth brother, why do you look so ugly? Is it because the wound burst?"
People who are seriously injured are most afraid of moving around. But today, they were carried off the boat, onto the carriage, and into the yard. It was quite a tossing.
Shen You didn't need to pretend, his face was pale: "No."
Shen Jia was so anxious that he couldn't restrain himself, so he immediately got up and ran out to call the imperial doctor.
When His Highness King Yan left the capital, he took two imperial doctors with him. One of them, Dr. Liu, was good at treating trauma. Shen You was seriously injured while trying to save King Yan, so His Highness the King of Yan specially ordered Dr. Liu to treat Shen You's injuries.
After a while, Doctor Liu came, carefully examined Shen You's injuries, and re-applied medicine and bandage.
After all the tossing, Shen You broke into a cold sweat again. He was extremely tired and fell into a deep sleep.
Shen Jia sat guarding by the bed, looking at his cousin's weak appearance, his eye circles could not help but turn red, and he wiped his eyes hard.
At this moment, footsteps sounded at the door.
Shen Jia turned around and quickly stood up to salute: "I have met His Highness!"
