After receiving the feedback from Li Ran, Fan Li and Ou Yi decided not to insist on exploring what the ghost was about after some discussion.
Instead, the main focus was on protecting Zichan.
Although Zichan received permission to go to Si Mansion to express his condolences, he was still in a state of confinement after returning home.
Li Ran had already vaguely deduced that Feng Duan, driven by the fear of being personally threatened, would most likely be unfavorable to Dr. Zichan.
Therefore, Owl Wing is also thinking about how to get in touch with Dr. Zichan again.
That night, the two of them wandered around the vegetable market and sheep shop, but they did not find the headless man. Instead, they discovered that the government had sent more people to ambush here, presumably because the arrest failed last time.
Toyodan still refuses to give up on this.
When the two of them met, they couldn't care less about it and just took a detour to Zichan's mansion.
The gate of Zichan's mansion and the surrounding areas were guarded by soldiers sent by Feng Duan.
But at this time, what surprised Owl Wing was that the soldiers originally stationed at the door suddenly changed! And these two new guards obviously did not take their duty to guard the door as their own.
What happened? At this moment, he was sitting there cross-legged and drinking alcohol.
Owl Yi frowned when he saw this situation. Thinking of Li Ran's instructions, he couldn't help but whisper:
"No! The guard at Dr. Zichan's house is so lax. I'm afraid something is going to happen in the house! Little brother Fan, you are very capable, why not just sneak into Dr. Zichan's house and make sure to protect Dr. Zichan! I'll go right away.
Find someone who will come to help you when the time comes!"
After hearing this, Fan Li just nodded and climbed over the wall directly. When he arrived at the mansion, he found that the guards in the inner mansion were also extremely loose at this time.
The more Fan Li thought about it, the more something was wrong, so he followed the eaves of the corridor and went straight to the backyard of the mansion, where Dr. Zichan rested.
When Fan Li arrived, he suddenly discovered by the moonlight that other figures were printed on the doors and windows of Zichan's dormitory. Fan Li did not have time to analyze the enemy's geometry and martial arts skills, so he fled and broke through the window.
Enter, and at the same time shouted in a deep voice:
"stop!"
Several people in the room were about to take action, but were stopped by Fan Li's shout! They couldn't help but be startled. Zichan also woke up from his sleep and suddenly sat up. Fan Li once pulled out his sword and started talking to those people.
Fighting in one place.
Obviously, the sudden appearance of Fan Li surprised the assassins. After a struggle in the dark, Fan Li stabbed several people with his flat sword. These assassins also knew that they were no match for him, so they could only panic.
Rush out the door.
But who would have thought that at this moment, they would bump into Owl Wings and others who came in a hurry to help.
Without saying a word, Owl Wing directly ordered people to kill all the invading assassins, lest these people go back to report the news.
At this time, in Zichan's bedroom, two assassins who had just been stabbed by Fan Li were still lying on the ground. Owl Yi took out the fire folder and lit the oil lamp in the room.
But when he saw Zichan sitting on the bed in such a fashion, he still looked as usual in the face of such a change. He squinted his eyes and immediately recognized Owl Wings.
"Aren't you... the butler of Li Ran's house?"
When Owl Wing heard this, he immediately saluted Zichan and said:
"Lord Zichan, Owl Wings' rescue was late, which frightened Lord Zichan!"
"Haha, it's not too late, it's just right!"
Then, Zichan got off the bed, glanced at the assassin on the ground, and asked in a deep voice:
"Are you two sent by Toyodan?"
As for the two assassins, before they could say a word, they all suddenly began to look ferocious, and they all vomited black blood from their mouths.
Seeing this, Owl Wing hurriedly went to hold the two men's chins, but it was too late. They had already committed suicide by taking poison.
Zichan watched all this calmly and couldn't help but sneer.
"Hmph! Fengduan has finally reached this point!"
After the servants from Zichan's mansion arrived and took care of the assassin's body, Owl Yi informed Zichan about Li Ran's current situation.
As for Li Ran's rebellion against Zheng Yi, Zichan had actually heard a little bit about it. But after all, he had been in a state of groundlessness, so he didn't know much about it.
At this moment, hearing Owl Wing say this, Zichan couldn't help but sigh.
"Hey, Ziming still cares about me, Zheng Guo, but... I don't know if it's still too late..."
"Lord Zichan, do you know about the ghost killing people?"
"Nowadays, everyone in Zhengyi is in danger, how can Qiao not know about it? However, this matter can be said to be unheard of. Qiao believes that there is no reason for ghosts to kill people in this world! It's just that they have done too many bad things and are afraid!
"
"Yes, actually my husband means the same thing. But judging from the current situation, it seems to be beneficial to us, so I will send a message to Mr. Zichan, please keep calm these days! Now they are getting better and better.
If you are anxious to take action against the doctor, then it becomes even more clear that Feng Duan must be anxious!"
Zichan thought for a moment.
"It's okay! Since Feng Duan has the intention to harm Qiao in this way, Qiao doesn't care about whether he is confined or not. Early tomorrow morning, Qiao will go to Uncle Zi's house to stay for a few days, and he will live in peace for a while.
, so it’s okay!”
Uncle Zi Taishu, also known as You Ji, was also one of the Zhengqing. At that time, he was also a supporter of the Zichan Reform. He was humble and kind, and was known to everyone in the Zheng Dynasty as a "great good man". Therefore, even if Feng Duan was in trouble,
, but it did not directly involve him.
Therefore, if Youji is determined to "fish in troubled waters" at this time, it is still possible to protect the integrity of his son's estate.
Fan Li always stood guard outside and never left even half a step away. Before leaving, he came in to pay homage to Zichan.
“I’ve heard about Dr. Zichan’s virtuous name for a long time, and it’s like thunder in my ears. I’m lucky enough to meet you today, and I’m really lucky for the rest of my life!”
Zichan smiled and said:
"Oh? Looking at you at such a young age, you can still hear the name Qiao for a long time?"
"That's natural. Dr. Zichan worked for the field, wrote Qiu Fu, and cast punishment cauldrons. Internally, he chose talents to serve, and externally he behaved courteously. He was praised by everyone in the world. Although Li was young, he had been heard for a long time.
The doctor has a good reputation, and Li would never dare to speak nonsense here!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zichan was stroking his beard while listening, and he found it very useful:
"Haha, it's not easy to be able to have such insight at such a young age. It seems that Zi Ming has gained another great talent!..."
Since the childbirth is still involved in the turmoil of confinement, Owl Yi and Fan Li naturally cannot stay in the house for a long time in order to avoid suspicion.
So, after a hurried conversation with Dr. Zichan, the two of them hurriedly left Zichan's mansion.
But the two of them were still worried after all, so they secretly lurked nearby and watched closely all night.
In the early morning of the next day, Zichan ignored the guard at the door and forced his way out of the mansion and went to Youfu.
When You Ji saw Zichan's arrival, he understood it well and was not afraid of big troubles. He not only sent more guards to Zichan, but also personally accompanied him to drink until late at night.
Shu Niu is now a "ghost" and has not been caught, and the plan to assassinate Zichan ultimately failed.
Now, with You Ji obstructing him and protecting Zi Chan carefully, it is natural that he will never find another chance to take action.
After Toyoda learned all this, he became furious again, and directly scolded Shu Niuyi:
"Shu Niu! What's the use of you? You can't even kill an old man! The murder can't be broken! You... you, if you can't solve this problem in Renyin, you can just raise your head.
See you!"
"Master Boshi, please rest assured! Shu Niu is grateful for your kindness. Even if he is shattered to pieces, he will definitely find out this case for you to put your mind at ease! And in the past few days, the ghost does not seem to appear in the market anymore.
Maybe we are just afraid but we don’t know..."
"Hmph! Don't just say it with your mouth anymore! But do it! Do it! No matter whether the person on the other side is a human or a ghost, you can only solve it completely! Otherwise, all words will be in vain! Do you understand?
!”
Obviously, Toyodan has been tortured more and more by this "boyou ghost".
