Chapter 105 The scene of mother and son recognizing each other
"Third brother!" Seeing Shen Zhizhou being stabbed in the abdomen and then falling to the ground, Shen Zhiyan couldn't help but be stunned, and then an indescribable joy grew in his heart.
Naturally, he also felt sorry for his third brother.
But, what if this is my third brother’s fate?
The moment Shen Zhizhou fell, even the assassins were stunned. They were all wearing black clothes and masks, and no one could recognize each other. Damn it, who actually killed the wrong person?
Just as they were about to kill Xie Changning.
"Oh no, someone is coming." At this moment, someone shouted.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!" The leading assassin gave the order and turned around to prepare to evacuate, but he did not expect that the guards of the marquis' mansion would catch up with him.
"Mother." Shen Zhiyan shouted and strode towards Xie Changning. Suddenly, a man in black jumped out and slashed at the back of his neck.
Immediately, his vision went dark.
As for Shen Jingshu, she had already fainted.
Shen Zhizhou was stabbed in the abdomen by a sword, which pierced through his abdomen. Due to excessive blood loss, he lost consciousness.
The guards of the Marquis' Mansion pursued him relentlessly.
Several assassins in black clothes and masks tore off their veils and black clothes, revealing clothes that were exactly the same as those worn by the guards in the Marquis' Mansion.
In the end, except for one seriously injured assassin who escaped, the rest of the assassins were all killed.
We have to leave someone to report to Qin Kaiji, right?
Qin's house, in the study.
"Master, why is there no news yet?" Wu looked anxious and kept walking back and forth in front of Qin Kaiji.
Qin Kaiji was also a little worried. "According to the time, the news should have come back by now."
"Master!" As soon as he finished speaking, a guard strode in.
Wu's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to ask, "Did you succeed?"
After hearing the guard's words, Wu suddenly asked, "How could it be that the injured ones were children?"
Qin Kaiji was shocked. Could it be that Xie Changning had already known his plan?
How is this possible?
"Master, the prefect and Jingshu were both stabbed by the sword. Are their lives in danger? No, I want to go to the Marquis' Mansion to see them." Mrs. Wu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"Are you crazy to go now? Do you want Xie Changning to know that the assassin was sent by us?" Qin Kaiji naturally couldn't let Wu go.
"These children are my own flesh and blood. How can I not worry?" Mrs. Wu sat down on the chair, feeling her whole heart was tightened. She couldn't help but burst into tears.
At this moment, she just wanted to see if her children were safe.
But she can't even do such a small thing!
Isn’t Qin Kaiji worried?
These children are the fruit of his life's work.
"Okay, stop crying. Don't you want to recognize the children? Zhiyan's injuries are the lightest. I will find a way to get in touch with Zhiyan, and you will be able to recognize Zhiyan soon. When you see Zhiyan, you will know the situation of the other children." Qin Kaiji's eyes sank slightly. His mother had been running the Marquis' Mansion for a lifetime, so naturally there were some people she could use.
Since waking up, Shen Zhixu has locked himself in his room. He doesn't see anyone and doesn't say a word.
What happened yesterday was a real blow to him.
But it also made him wake up quickly.
He thought carefully about his past life.
Suddenly, his pupils trembled violently and he sat up abruptly from the couch.
Soon, a major case will occur in the Ministry of Revenue, and everyone will be implicated. The serious ones will be beheaded, and the minor ones will be exiled...
Even Gomakura was not immune.
If his memory had awakened earlier, before he entered the Ministry of Revenue, he would have followed Xie Changning's arrangements and honestly entered the Hanlin Academy to become a compiler.
He regretted it.
Why did he have to listen to Qin Kaiji and join the Ministry of Revenue?
Also, why didn't Xie Changning stop him?
He couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
No, no, he must be transferred from the Ministry of Revenue immediately.
Thinking that the Fourth Prince was the ultimate winner in his previous life, Shen Zhixu's eyes narrowed. Only the Fourth Prince could give him the power, glory and wealth he wanted!
He must cling to the Fourth Prince.
Although, it is not easy.
Suddenly he remembered something and smiled. He would definitely make the Fourth Prince believe him.
In a few days, a great opportunity will be presented to him.
It's getting dark outside.
"Zhizhou, now mother can only rely on you, you must not be in any harm. As long as you can wake up, mother will immediately petition His Majesty to let you inherit the title of Marquis." Seeing that Shen Zhizhou's eyelashes trembled slightly, Xie Changning seized the opportunity to speak.
The next moment.
"Mother..." Shen Zhizhou slowly opened his eyes, and Xie Changning's words fell clearly into his ears. His eyes flashed, and a great surprise surged in his heart.
Mother, she finally said this.
"Zhizhou, you scared your mother to death, but fortunately you finally woke up." Xie Changning saw his reaction clearly, her eyes reddened, and she pretended to be concerned.
Shen Zhizhou's nose felt sore.
He had wronged his mother before.
The mother still loves her son, otherwise she would not use her body to protect him when he is in danger.
"I will definitely be filial to my mother in the future." He said from the bottom of his heart.
Xie Changning's eyes flashed with disdain. "Don't worry, your second brother sprained his ankle, and your fifth sister was stabbed in the back, but she wasn't seriously injured."
Thinking of Shen Zhiyan, a faint light flashed across Shen Zhizhou's eyes.
Second brother is really good at acting.
He lost half his life, and even his fifth sister was hit by a sword, but his second brother only sprained his foot.
"Well, I'm glad they're okay." Finally, Shen Zhizhou remembered something, "Mother, are you injured?"
Xie Changning stroked his arm and said with a smile, "Mother is fine, as long as you are fine."
Shen Zhizhou's eyes reddened. His mother must have been hurt, but she said this deliberately because she was afraid that he would worry.
Xie Changning waited until Shen Zhizhou had dinner and took the medicine before leaving. She curled the corners of her mouth slightly. Qin Kaiji and Wu had suffered such a big loss, they would definitely take action today.
She guessed that they would definitely look for Shen Zhiyan.
Sure enough, Xie Changning received the message before falling asleep.
Qin Kaiji asked someone to deliver a letter to Shen Zhiyan, inviting him to meet at Tianranju tomorrow, saying that there was something important.
Shen Zhiyan's injuries were the lightest, and the imperial physician had already examined and treated him. As long as he wanted, he could still go out.
The next day.
After Shen Zhiyan paid his respects to Xie Changning, he went to visit Shen Zhizhou and Shen Jingshu, then found an excuse to go out.
He was a little worried at first, as Xie Changning was still holding him back and wouldn't let him go out.
Unexpectedly, the guards did not stop him.
Qixia Courtyard.
As soon as Shen Zhiyan left the Marquis' Mansion, Xie Changning received the news.
She raised a smile and said, "Tell someone to keep a close eye on him. They are bound to stage a mother-son reunion scene today. I'm very curious whether Shen Zhiyan will recognize them."
