The servant did not say who instructed him to poison because he committed suicide by taking poison.
It happens again!
He ordered his men to drag the servant's body out, and Yan Cheng gritted his teeth in anger.
Many times, when the key point is found, that key person will commit suicide.
How loyal!
Now it seems that the sudden illness of Zhenbei Hou was no coincidence.
Yun Cong'an's broken leg was probably not a coincidence.
How could a general who was skilled in martial arts and led troops in battles break his leg so easily?
Someone wants to kill the Yun family!
The Marquis of Zhenbei seemed to have thought of this as well. He was so angry that he started coughing again, and his face seemed to have turned even paler.
After coughing, the Marquis of Zhenbei said, "Cong'an and I have both encountered trouble. I'm afraid the northwest border will be in chaos."
Although the Yun family has a mixed reputation in the court.
Some people think they are too powerful to be a threat to the emperor, some think they are arrogant and domineering, and some think they are the guardian gods of Daxia...
But the people in the northwest really trust the Yun family.
If one day the Yun family members die or become disabled, the people in the northwest border will not be able to sleep day and night, for fear that without them, the Hu people's cavalry will attack Daxia with impunity.
What the Marquis of Zhenbei was worried about was correct. When they saw Yun Cong'an being carried into the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion, many people on the street were already talking about it.
"What kind of curse has the Yun family been under? Why are accidents happening one after another?"
"Marquis Zhenbei is seriously ill, and General Yun San doesn't look well either. The Yun family only has a few young men left, and the barbarians are invading at this very moment..."
"Without the Yun family, what will happen to the northwest border?"
When the Marquis of Zhenbei saw his son, he looked disgusted.
"How could you break your leg when you're already a grown man? Don't you know I can't go to the battlefield? In order to maintain the morale of the troops, you absolutely cannot get hurt?"
Yun Cong'an, who was carried into the house, sat on a stool. He blamed himself: "I was too impatient. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen off the horse."
The Marquis of Zhenbei lay on the bed, staring at Yun Cong'an, his voice low and stern: "Cong'an, you are still not cautious enough!"
Yun Cong'an bit his lip and tried to stand up, but he gasped in pain: "Dad, I was negligent, I..."
The Marquis of Zhenbei interrupted him, his tone becoming even more stern: "As a general, how can you act so recklessly! On the battlefield, any small mistake can lead to fatal consequences!"
Yun Cong'an also thought about what the Northwest Army and the people would think when he and the Marquis of Zhenbei met with misfortunes one after another.
He sighed deeply and said, "Dad, I know I was wrong. I won't do it again next time."
After the father and son finished their conversation, Yan Cheng thought of the series of chain events that happened after the Yun family encountered an accident in the original book.
And now, reality is following that tragic trajectory.
Yan Cheng believes that such tragedies cannot be allowed to continue, especially for the four brothers of the Yun family.
Yan Cheng: "Where are my grandfather, uncle, and cousins now?"
Marquis Zhenbei: "Rongxi and Rongji have already gone to Xiangcheng, Ronghuan and Rongyi are in the mansion, why did Your Highness suddenly mention them?"
After hearing this, Yan Cheng's face instantly turned bad.
He immediately explained, "First, my grandfather was seriously ill and was poisoned..."
"What? Dad, you were poisoned? Is it serious? What did the doctor say? Dad! What will we do if you leave?"
Yun Cong'an didn't listen to all of Yan Cheng's words, only the first half.
His brain took a second to react, and he immediately wailed, struggling to stand up with his lame leg and ran to the bedside of Marquis Zhenbei.
The Marquis of Zhenbei's brain was pounding, and he shouted, "You cripple, be quiet!"
The pressure from his old father made Yun Cong'an obey obediently in an instant.
The Marquis of Zhenbei then said, "I'm fine, who are you crying for?"
Yun Cong'an gasped: "Dad, didn't His Highness say you were poisoned?"
Marquis Zhenbei: "Haven't I been poisoned enough? As long as I'm not dead, I'm fine! Your Highness, ignore him and continue with your story!"
Yan Cheng nodded and continued, "First it was my grandfather, then my uncle broke his leg while riding a horse. I don't think these are all coincidences."
Zhenbei Hou actually thought of these problems, but...
He shook his head: "I know that things are not simple, but now that the Hu people are approaching Xiangcheng, we don't have time to investigate the truth of these things."
Yan Cheng: "Yes, I know. What I want to talk about is not the investigation, but the safety of my cousins. The person behind the scenes was willing to burn his boats and attack my grandfather and uncle, so how could he forget about my cousins?"
The Marquis of Zhenbei was shocked, and Yun Cong'an's reaction was even more direct.
This time he really stood up with his lame leg, with veins throbbing on his forehead.
"No! I can die, but Rong Xi and the others must not be harmed. They are the continuation of our Yun family!"
Yan Cheng quickly asked the guards to make arrangements for his disabled but strong-willed uncle.
The Marquis of Zhenbei agreed with Yan Cheng's words: "I will immediately send people to Xiangcheng to find Rongxi and Rongji, hoping to save them in time."
At this time, the twin brothers Yun Ronghuan and Yun Rongyi came to see Zhenbei Hou and Yun Cong'an who had just returned from injury.
After that, he said he wanted to go to the battlefield like his brothers.
Upon hearing this, Yan Cheng frowned and said, "The situation is complicated now. It would be best if you two cousins do not leave the house for the time being."
Yun Ronghuan and Yun Rongyi looked at each other, and one of them couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, why is this?"
Yan Cheng first explained the misfortunes that had befallen the Marquis of Zhenbei and Yun Cong'an, and then said, "I'm worried that after them, you too will encounter misfortune."
Yun Ronghuan: "What? Grandfather's illness and Dad's injury weren't accidents? Why didn't you tell us about such a big thing?"
