Chapter 1202 Care
Old Lady Liu, Mr. Zhuang, and Zhou Wulang rushed over with gold and silver. They rushed to the backyard and saw that the children were all fine, and they breathed a sigh of relief.
Madam Liu's eyes were red. She reached out and hugged Bai Shan, saying, "It's good that you're okay. It's good that you're okay."
Zhou Wulang also checked Manbao and found that there was nothing wrong with her except that her clothes were wet and her face was a little pale. He also breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Shan saw that the servant who escorted them in was carrying a knife and his clothes were stained with blood. Even Zhou Wulang was covered in blood. She asked, "Grandma, what's going on?"
Madam Liu smiled and said, "It's okay."
Mr. Zhuang said calmly, "Someone with a knife tried to break into our house. Fortunately, Lord Tao from the Ministry of Justice arrived in time with his men. We are fine, but several of our servants were injured."
Manbao then asked, "Fifth brother, are Sixth brother and the others okay?"
Zhou Wulang said, "It's okay. We are all hiding in the back. With the help of the officials and servants, we are all safe."
They were quite frightened, after all, it was the first time in their lives that they had seen someone killed. Some time ago, a group of criminals were executed in the autumn of the capital, and many people went to watch the excitement, but they didn't dare to watch.
Bai Shan pursed his lips, clenched his fists, and asked, "Why is this happening? Is the King of Yizhou crazy?"
The Jingzhao Prefecture captain standing by just now remembered that he had forgotten to tell them, "The King of Yizhou has escaped."
All the young men widened their eyes.
Then, Manbao and Baishan's hearts calmed down immediately. They looked at each other without saying a word, and made a wish in their hearts, "I hope that the Lord of Heaven will bless the King of Yizhou to resist to the end and resolutely refuse to surrender."
Old Lady Liu and Yin Huofeng Zongping and others expressed their gratitude, and then went out to thank the passers-by who saved them.
Just as Bai Shan said, anyone who helped would be given ten gold coins, and anyone who was injured would be given another ten gold coins. They would also pay for the medical expenses this time.
Those who helped greatly were given an additional ten gold coins. At that time, the assassination was carried out in public, and everyone could see who contributed more and who contributed less, so it was not difficult to distinguish.
If the gold she brought was not enough, she would exchange it for silver. If it was still not enough, Madam Liu would take the Bai family's business card and borrow some from the silver shop.
The Bai family is now quite famous in the capital, and since the money is given for this purpose, the silver shops are very willing to lend it, and no one thinks that the Bai family will not be able to pay it back.
Old Lady Liu and General Liu Gui sent away those who had received the bounty one by one. They asked doctors to bandage the injured and asked someone to send those who were not feeling well back home.
In fact, she didn't need to send them off. The families of those people heard that they had made so much money and had already rushed over with their families.
Ten gold coins are equivalent to one hundred taels, which is an amount that an ordinary family cannot earn in several years.
How dare they go home alone with the money?
Of course, those who have families will ask someone to go back and tell them to come and take them home. Those who live far away will just take money and call a few friends or fellow villagers they know, give them the money, and plan to walk together on the road.
Before everyone had finished leaving, several carriages came galloping in. They barely stopped in front of the pharmacy, and before they had even stopped, several young women in gorgeous clothes jumped out of the carriages. The one in the lead didn't even glance at Old Madam Liu, but ran straight into the pharmacy. Her face was pale, and she grabbed a busy pharmacist and asked, "Where is the young master of the Yin family?"
The medicine boy recognized the young woman and immediately pointed to the backyard.
The woman immediately ran to the backyard and saw Yin Huo at a glance. She rushed over and hugged him, "Little brother, where are you hurt?"
Yin Huo was groped all over by the woman, feeling somewhat embarrassed under the gaze of his friends. He held her hand and said, "Sister, I'm not hurt."
Before he could finish his words, his second and third sisters ran in, all of them looking as if the sky was falling, surrounding him and wanting to touch him.
His second sister wiped her tears and said, "We were so scared. When we heard at home that you had met an assassin, we ran to Xiangguo Temple without stopping. But when we got there, they said you had come to Jishiditang..."
His eldest sister had already gone to Jingzhao Prefecture to cause trouble. "How could there be a criminal committing a crime in the street under the feet of the emperor? How do you, Jingzhao Prefecture, manage this?"
His second sister nodded repeatedly and turned to ask Changshou, "Xiangguo Temple is such a crowded and dangerous place, why did you take the young master there?"
Yin Huo hurriedly said, "Second sister, Xiangguo Temple is a Buddhist temple, how could it be dangerous? I am going there to worship Buddha and pray for blessings today. He has no power over me."
Then he said to his elder sister, "Eldest sister, this is not the fault of Jingzhao Prefecture. This is an accident, no one expected it."
What's more, Jingzhao Yin is their father. If they blame Jingzhao Prefecture and the censor takes it seriously, isn't the person being impeached their father?
Sister Yin asked, "Where is the assassin? Who is so bold as to assassinate someone in the street?"
The captain of Jingzhao Prefecture was finally able to speak and said, "The assassins are all dead."
Sister Yin asked sharply, "Dead?"
Bai Shan was about to speak when Yin Huo turned around, looked at him, pressed his hand and shook his head slightly.
Second Sister Yin narrowed her eyes when she saw this and asked, "Why, Master Bai knows about these assassins?"
Yin Huo said, "The assassin wouldn't reveal his identity, so how would he know?"
Bai Shan said, "Although I didn't introduce myself, it must be because of me. I'm really sorry."
After saying that, he stood up and bowed to everyone to apologize.
Yin Huo glanced at Bai Shan disapprovingly.
Bai Shan felt that he couldn't hide it, so he might as well be honest.
The three sisters of the Yin family didn't like Bai Shan and the other two to begin with, and they disliked them even more now.
Sister Yin opened her mouth to speak, but Sister Yin, who had been wiping her tears silently, pulled her sleeve and shook her head slightly.
Thinking of Yin Huo's defense of his friends, she snorted with a sour look on her face and turned her head away.
Yin Huo was relieved to see that her sisters did not say anything bad.
Feng Zongping was watching with great interest. Yi Ziyang couldn't bear it anymore and stepped on him. Only then did he come to his senses and immediately stepped forward to smooth things over. "Don't worry, Sister Yin, Yin Huo was just a little frightened and not hurt at all. Look, I was even cut."
Sister Yin's expression brightened a little, and she said to Yin Huo, "Little brother, let's go home quickly. Grandma is still worried at home. She wanted to come in person, but she's old, and we didn't agree because we were afraid she would be upset."
Yin Huo stood up, nodded to Bai Shan and Man Bao, and said, "Then I'll go home first. If you need anything, please send someone to call me."
Sister Yin prayed in her heart: Please don’t come looking for me again.
Bai Shan smiled and nodded, and was about to send them out, but Man Bao stopped him and said, "You rest, I'll go see them out."
People with internal injuries should move less.
Bai Shan did not insist, and Manbao sent them out. Old Madam Liu and the others naturally thanked them and breathed a sigh of relief after watching them go away.
It happened that the people who came to receive the reward had almost left, so Old Lady Liu breathed a sigh of relief and took Manbao's hand and went back to the backyard.
See you at 4 p.m.
