Chapter 182 Fortunately it came quickly
Even if they were captured alive, a death warrior like this would just commit suicide in front of everyone and would never say a word.
With this corpse, I can finally report back to the mission.
Zou Yunqi ordered the imperial guards who followed behind to clean up the thief's body, while checking He Yanxiu's injuries, "How do you feel, Lord He?"
"It's okay, just a superficial wound." He Yanxiu threw the arrow on the ground.
The arrow was flying towards him, and in order to make the other party let down his guard, he tucked it under his armpit and pretended to be injured.
However, the arrow was sharp, and he was in a hurry, so the arrow cut through his clothes, and only a little blood was seen.
"Skin injuries should also be carefully examined and treated to prevent them from festering." Zou Yunqi said, "But the emperor has already left for the palace, and the third prince is seriously injured. I'm afraid the accompanying imperial physicians have all gone back with him. Lord He should return to the capital as soon as possible for treatment."
"I will arrange for someone to escort Lord He back right away."
"No need to trouble Commander Zou. The doctor I know is closer to here than to Beijing. I can just go there." He Yanxiu said with a smile, "The servant at home is waiting for you at the foot of the mountain. Commander Zou can just take care of his own business. I'll take my leave now."
Now that the Third Prince is like this, everyone's eyes will be on him, and this matter can be considered a success.
He Yanxiu had been working diligently on government affairs for some time and felt that he was quite tired and needed to rest for a few days.
The current injury is an excellent excuse.
Even though He Yanxiu said this, Zou Yunqi still sent some people to escort He Yanxiu down the mountain first, while he and the others took the thief's body back to report.
He Yanxiu reached the foot of the mountain and met up with Xing'an.
Xing'an was shocked when he saw the huge hole in He Yanxiu's brocade robe and asked, "Second Master is injured?"
"Yes." He Yanxiu climbed onto the horse and pulled the reins. "Let's go."
"Where is the Second Master going?" Xing'an was surprised to see that He Yanxiu did not go to the capital with the others.
"Since you are injured, you naturally have to see a doctor." He Yanxiu rolled his eyes at Xing'an.
Xing'an's question was really unnecessary.
See a doctor? Xing'an finally reacted.
Isn't Miss Su a doctor? Second Master is going to Qinghe! "Second Master is right." Xing'an nodded excitedly and urged the horse under his crotch to catch up.
This place is not far from Qinghe River. Even though they were not in a hurry on the way, the sun had not completely set when the master and servant arrived at Qinghe River.
Su Yujin learned that He Yanxiu was injured while catching the assassin who was trying to assassinate the emperor, and that his clothes were so torn, so she hurriedly took off He Yanxiu's shirt to check his injuries.
Seeing Su Yujin's frown and his subordinates' busy movements, He Yanxiu felt a little uneasy, "How is the injury?"
"Fortunately, Second Master came quickly." Su Yujin didn't even raise her head, "If Second Master had come later..."
He Yanxiu became more nervous after hearing this.
Could it be that the arrow is poisonous?
Su Yujin used the cotton wool to wipe away the remaining medicine and said quietly, "This wound will heal on its own."
He Yanxiu, "..."
Touching his nose, He Yanxiu explained, "Anyone who can assassinate the emperor must be a desperate criminal. It is common for arrows to be poisoned. I was also worried, so I thought of coming to find you to take a look. If you are fine, then I will feel relieved."
"Don't worry, Second Master. The injury is not serious. I have just applied some medicine. He will be well in two days."
Su Yujin said something to comfort him, and went to find some clothes for He Yanxiu to change into.
The clothes were made by Su Yujin at a clothing store in Qinghe, according to He Yanxiu's size. The craftsmanship and fabric quality could not compare with the clothes He Yanxiu wore on a daily basis, but thinking of wearing them in emergencies, Su Yujin prepared one or two sets of clothes according to the thickness of the clothes for each solar term.
The suit that He Yanxiu was wearing at this moment was newly made these days, and its width and length were quite suitable.
The only thing is that the material is indeed inferior to the one at home.
It cannot be said that Su Yujin was not caring and was reluctant to buy him better fabrics. It was really because Qinghe was too close to the capital. Many wealthy people went directly to the capital to buy clothes and jewelry to show their strength and face. Therefore, the best fabrics sold in the shops in Qinghe were only above average.
The material she was wearing now was probably the best fabric that Su Yujin could buy. It was very good fabric.
It seems that next time I can't just give Su Yujin silver notes and gold, I should also prepare some of these useful things.
For dinner, Su Yujin made a clear-boiled lamb hotpot, which was served with cabbage, radish cubes, lotus root cubes, and tofu. It was eaten on a charcoal stove, and finally had a bowl of stewed noodles. It was very filling and the taste was very delicious.
Because Su Yujin said that the injury would take two days to heal, He Yanxiu stayed here for two days with ease.
Su Yujin worked hard and prepared three meals a day for He Yanxiu in different ways.
He Yanxiu was very satisfied with the meal, but he did not forget one important thing - to fulfill the promise he made to Su Yujin when he returned to Beijing last time and return her bond to her.
When Su Yujin took the thin piece of paper from He Yanxiu's hand, she felt a little dazed for a moment.
Since she came to this world, her identity has been a concubine and a slave. In the past two years, she has gradually adapted to and even become accustomed to this identity. She has also been accumulating wealth, hoping to get her indenture back as soon as possible so that she can live a free and easy life.
Now that I have my contract and have gone to the government office to have my record deleted, I am now a free man, having achieved the small goal I had set at the beginning. It is a little hard to believe that this is true.
Seeing Su Yujin staring blankly at the contract of sale, He Yanxiu continued, "I have sent people to look for your family everywhere, but it has been a while and there are no clues yet. I will tell you as soon as I get the news."
Su Yujin was stunned for a moment.
Second Master wants to help her find her family?
First he returned her indenture, and then he helped her find her family. Second Master wanted to thank her for her hard work over the past two years and for curing his illness many times, so he gave her a reward? "Thank you, Second Master."
Su Yujin thanked him repeatedly.
To be fair, the Second Master is indeed a master who treats his servants sincerely and kindly, and he deserves her respect.
Regardless of whether she is free or not, she should work hard for the Second Master.
Happy about getting the indenture, Su Yujin made some bowl-shaped cakes to eat in the afternoon. In the evening, she made a lot of amber walnut kernels, fish skin peanuts and other snacks for He Yanxiu to take back.
After seeing He Yanxiu off, Su Yujin took her indentures and took Ai Cao to the government office to cancel their records and obtain a new household registration.
Seeing the fresh red stamp on the household registration paper, Su Yujin's mouth grinned from ear to ear. In the evening, she took a few dishes and some fine osmanthus wine from Huibin Building and went back to have a couple of drinks with Ai Cao and Mother Liu.
Today Dabao said she saw a video in which a little girl was locked on the balcony and abused because she made her mother angry, and now she is very worried.
Me: Are you worried that I will abuse you? Dabao: I’m worried that you will transfer your anger to Dad and abuse him. Me: …
