The assassination subsided not long after, and Han Xing continued to drive the carriage forward.
When we entered the city, we told the people who were guarding the city that the third princess was assassinated when she returned to the city. The guards at the city gate were startled.
Su Qing told them not to panic or to go to the palace overnight to report the matter to Emperor Yihong. He only asked them to clean up the corpses and blood stains outside the city so as not to scare the people who were passing by during the day.
After arriving outside the Three Princes' Mansion, Xuanji left.
Su Qing woke up the three people who had fainted. Qing'er immediately panicked after reacting: "Princess, Princess, are you okay? I think I saw..."
Thinking of the face she saw before she fell into coma, Qing'er shuddered and felt that the temperature had dropped a lot. She rubbed her arms in the cold.
"It's okay. I met a bad guy, but he didn't come to take my life." Su Qing told them not to tell anyone about the attack. Although the three of them looked confused, they all agreed.
.
Early the next morning, Su Qing went to visit the Duke's Mansion.
Seeing Su Changyun, Su Qing felt an inexplicable emotion in her heart, but business was still important, so she got straight to the point: "Dad, have you taken refuge with the eldest prince now?"
The Protector was confused: "Ah, why did Qing say that? Don't you know what kind of person dad is?"
"Dad, that's not what I meant. I was afraid that you would be threatened by the Liu family, or that you would be forced to find something, so I asked this question."
"The Liu family can't do anything to your father."
"Bai Ling'er is locked up in dad's garrison camp, right?"
"How did you know about this?" Su Changyun looked surprised.
He hurriedly said: "The emperor ordered me to guard it secretly, so I didn't reveal it to you."
Su Changyun's reaction didn't look like he was faking it. Su Qing was just asking for confirmation. If she really suspected that he had taken refuge in Baili Mao, she wouldn't ask him directly.
She said: "But the eldest prince knows Bai Ling'er's whereabouts."
"How is this possible!" Su Changyun looked in disbelief; "I didn't even tell you about this, how could I tell the eldest prince!"
"I believe dad. But it is true that the eldest prince knows Bai Ling'er's whereabouts. Dad, could it be that you revealed this matter to other people or subordinates?"
"Of course not." Su Changyun flatly refused: "Even Wen Hai and Wen Sheng, two little guys who often go to the military camp, don't know that I am guarding Bai Ling'er!"
"Then who knows about this?"
It seems that people from Bailimao have been mixed into the garrison.
Su Changyun thought carefully before speaking: "Besides the emperor, the only other people who know about this are two deputy generals in the army, but they are all old men who have followed me for ten years!"
Bai Ling'er was under heavy guard in the military camp, but ordinary soldiers didn't know who they were guarding. They just followed the orders of their superiors and performed tasks.
"It is impossible for both the emperor and me to leak the news, so only your father's two lieutenants. Dad will handle this matter himself. Once Bai Ling'er is lost, he should know what kind of situation the Ming Congress will face."
Of course Su Changyun knew that once Bai Ling'er was rescued, Beast City would be able to attack without any scruples!
Over there with the Zhao family.
Finally, when Bailimao came to meet him, Zhao Yun looked very ugly and asked Bailimao, "Your third brother and sister have a close relationship with Xuanji Pavilion, why didn't you tell me in advance!"
Bailimao was stunned by the question; "You mean Su Qing?"
"In addition to her, you also need several younger siblings!"
The Zhao family didn't have any experts to begin with, so they took the trouble to gather a group of available people in order to rescue Bai Ling'er.
Yesterday Su Qing went out of the city to see off Bai Liyu. He thought this was a rare opportunity. As long as Su Qing was tied up, he was not afraid of Emperor Yihong not compromising.
Just imagine, Bai Ling'er is the strongest barrier in the southwest of the Ming Dynasty, but Emperor Yihong used this barrier in exchange for Su Qing. What foothold will Su Qing have in the Ming Dynasty in the future?
The idea was very good, but in the end, 90% of the manpower was lost but Su Qing was not injured at all. How could Zhao Yun not be angry?
"Impossible. How can Su Qing have such ability? Did you meet people from Xuanji Pavilion last night?"
Even though he heard it with his own ears, Baili Mao still thought it was impossible.
Zhao Yun sneered: "Oh, it's impossible? The Evil Punisher of Xuanji Pavilion and Su Qing are sitting in a carriage. You still think it's impossible."
"What?!"
Baili Mao was shocked, his extremely soft face was full of shock.
"Do you doubt me? The ghost chariot is driving the carriage in person. The person in the carriage is either the Evil Punisher or the young master or the master of the Xuanji Pavilion!" If it is really the young master or the master of the pavilion, the situation will be even worse.
However, Zhao Yun also felt that Su Qing could not have that much ability to compete with the Young Master or the Pavilion Master.
Even if she was born beautiful, how could the two people in charge of the Xuanji Pavilion fall in love with her?
"No, no, of course I believe what Mr. Zhao said." Baili Mao said quickly, his face turned pale and his lips were bloodless.
He thought that even if Su Qing was involved with Xuanji Pavilion, he would at most have some dealings with the killers of Xuanji Pavilion, but he didn't expect that he turned out to be the evil punisher!
Su Qing hugged such a thigh, which was terrible for him!
"First Prince, I will leave after staying for another two days. Although the favor of Beast City is valuable, if I offend Xuanji Pavilion because of Beast City, it will not be worth the loss for me."
Helping the sheep and offending the wolves is an uneconomical business that only a fool would do.
The Zhao family was preparing to withdraw. Although Baili Mao was dissatisfied, he did not dare to speak out;
"But if Su Qing knows about your spreading the plague to the southwest, she will also hate you. If she really has a close relationship with the Evil Punisher, there is no guarantee what will happen."
Zhao Yun sneered: "Heh, do you think my Zhao family is easy to deal with? I'm afraid Su Qing doesn't have the face to let Xuanji Pavilion deal with us because of her."
Zhao Yun did not want to talk more about this matter: "The rescue of Bai Ling'er is over now, but the Zhao family and the eldest prince have always been friends. The Yan Kingdom only needs the nine southwest cities of the Ming Dynasty. When our Yan army invades, they will definitely call the Ming Dynasty
The emperor gives way to you."
Bailimao couldn't say anything more and left.
When he was going out, he saw another corpse being carried towards the back door. He frowned and said, "Mr. Zhao killed another woman last night?"
Next to him, Zhao Yiyi looked at him with a smile: "What's the matter, do you, like your third brother and sister, think that we have harmed the people of your Ming Dynasty?"
Her brother had always kept himself clean, but now he was receiving concubines one by one every day.
Originally, Zhao Yiyi was very opposed to this matter. How could those lowly women in the Ming Dynasty have the qualifications to cause trouble for the Zhao family Yan Mianzi? But after seeing the fate of those women, she felt relieved.
It was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, so Zhao Yiyi didn't think much about her brother's unusual behavior. She only thought that her brother was dissatisfied with being said to have married into the Weisheng family and deliberately took concubines.
After all, Bailiyu didn't even dare to take a concubine after marrying Su Qing.
"Since she is a concubine brought in by the Zhao family, how to deal with it is your family's business. I was just frightened by Young Master Zhao." Bailimao responded lightly.
After leaving the Zhao family's residence, he frowned: "Didn't you say that Zhao Yun is not a lustful person?"
