Chen Qiu, Xiao Hang and Lan Yu all sent Ye Chen into the academy. Xiao Hang went back first for something, and Chen Qiu accompanied Lan Yu on a walk through the streets of Kyoto.
Lan Yu was now wearing the clothes bought for her from Jinyifang. She complained that the sleeves were too long and that she stepped on her skirt.
So, Chen Qiu took her to a clothing shop. This time, instead of buying directly, he chose cloth to be custom-made and all the clothes were made into tight-fitting clothes according to Lan Yu's requirements.
After the two came out, they went to Taohuazhai again. Lan Yu said that she liked the pastries there very much.
As soon as they arrived at Taohuazhai, Lan Yu got off the carriage first. When Chen Qiu was about to get off, a carriage pulling a heavy object suddenly rushed out from behind their carriage. It seemed that the horses were frightened.
Taohuazhai is located in the downtown area, and it is very crowded and lively now.
Chen Qiu saw the carriage coming towards him, and with a flick of his toes he jumped out and landed on the roof of Taohuazhai. Lan Yu and Xing'er quickly flew to Chen Qiu's side and asked, "How is it?"
Chen Qiu shook his head and looked at the out-of-control horse, which was still running around. In addition to hitting Chen Qiu's carriage, it also hit two vendors' stalls. Fortunately, no one was hurt.
Seeing that the horse was about to hit an old woman who couldn't dodge in time, Chen Qiu turned quickly in the air, pulled the old lady to the side.
Xing'er and Lan Yu followed closely behind. Lan Yu said, "You are pregnant, be careful. Let Xing'er and I do it."
Shen Qiu looked at the horse and said, "Xing'er is not fast enough. Xing'er, go and knock the horse unconscious, otherwise someone else will get hurt."
Xing'er nodded, flew onto the horse, gathered her strength and slapped the horse on the head, but the horse was not hurt at all.
Xing'er and her friends grew up with horses and knew them very well. Even a warhorse on the battlefield would faint with Xing'er's palm, but this skinny horse was not hurt at all.
Chen Qiu hurriedly shouted: "Xing'er, control it and don't let it hurt anyone."
Then he turned to Lan Yu and said, "Do you have any drugs on you?"
When Lan Yu heard this, he nodded in understanding and went to help Xing'er.
Chen Qiu was left alone. He just focused on Xing'er and the others, but suddenly he felt a murderous aura around him.
When she turned around, she saw the woman she had just saved stabbing at her with a dagger. Chen Qiu moved very quickly and stepped back.
But just as he took two steps back, two more people came from behind, both holding long swords. Chen Qiu turned around and pulled out his soft sword from his waist, and started fighting with the three of them.
Then two or three more people came out from the crowd. They were all dressed like ordinary people and surrounded Chen Qiu. Just as Chen Qiu was fighting with someone, another person appeared.
But this time they were all helping Chen Qiu. Chen Qiu knew at a glance that these were the secret guards Ye Chen prepared for her.
After Xing'er and Lan Yu had knocked Ma Mi unconscious, they came over to help. In less than a quarter of an hour, all the men had fallen to the ground. Xing'er stepped forward and asked, "Who are you? Who sent you?"
The man took one look at Chen Qiu and bit his gums to death. After seeing one person dead, the others also bit their teeth and died on the street.
Chen Qiu said to the secret guards: "Report to the authorities and let the Jingzhao government handle this matter."
Lan Yu went forward to examine the corpse and said, "It's a deadly poison, but it's a very common one. It doesn't point to anything in particular!"
Shen Qiu frowned and said, "I roughly know who did it."
After a while, someone from the Jingzhao government office came. Because they didn't know Chen Qiu, they asked Chen Qiu to go to the government office with them.
When they entered the yamen, the Jingzhao prefect saw that they were three women and sat there with a bit of pride, saying, "Why don't you kneel before the officials?"
Xing'er laughed and said, "Open your eyes and take a look. When you're an official in Kyoto, you should look at people clearly before you speak. Otherwise, one day your head will fall off without you even knowing it!"
"My wife kneels before you? I'm afraid you can't bear it!"
Although Zhang Sheng, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, was a man of little ability, he was a man of great insight. After hearing what Xing'er said, he looked at Chen Qiu carefully.
Although she doesn't have a stunning appearance and her clothes are very plain, a closer look at the fabric reveals that it is moonlight gauze, which is priceless.
Then he said with a smile: "Don't blame me, madam, I didn't recognize Mount Tai."
"Do you know who these people are?"
Shen Qiu smiled and said: "This is an adult matter. I only know that they all committed suicide by taking poison, and many people on the street saw it."
"The rest is up to you, sir!"
Zhang Sheng said: "Yes, but since you are the plaintiff in this case, I may need your cooperation!"
Chen Qiu smiled and said, "They are here to assassinate me. I will tell you what I know. If you have any progress, just come to the Fuguogong Mansion to find me!"
Zhang Sheng hurriedly said, "Thank you, Madam!" Fortunately, he didn't lose his mind. Otherwise, if he offended this person, wouldn't the young Duke lose his job? For a small official like him, it wouldn't be a matter of a word.
After Xing'er explained the whole story to her lawyer, Chen Qiu and the others returned to the Duke's Mansion.
When Chen Qiu returned, the secret guards had already come back to report to Madam Xiao and the old Duke. At this time, both of them were waiting in Qiuchen Courtyard.
Before Shen Qiu even greeted anyone when he entered the room, Madam Xiao surrounded him twice and asked, "What happened? How did you encounter an assassin? Are you injured? I heard you attacked me. How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Shen Qiu smiled and said: “Grandma, I’m fine, but Grandpa is not well yet. You guys wait for me to come back, I’ll just go to Rongwei Hall and be fine!”
Xiao Taijun said: "Aiya, we are fine, you are the most important. If you were injured, wouldn't Chen'er go crazy?"
Shen Qiu smiled and said, "I'm fine, the child is fine too, are you relieved?"
The old Duke said, "Black Hawk, investigate! These people must be found and eradicated completely!"
Shen Qiu didn't say anything. She had to wait until Black Hawk had a result to confirm the person she suspected. After all, that person was a princess. If she really hurt civilians in order to kill her, Shen Qiu probably wouldn't let her go.
Ye Chen was locked in the academy for three days. He had participated in the competition in his previous life. He answered the same questions in different ways. This time, he aimed to be the top scorer.
When I was hungry, I ate the snacks prepared by Chen Qiu. When I was cold, I had the quilt prepared by Chen Qiu. When I wore the knee pads prepared by Chen Qiu, I wore the knee pads prepared by Chen Qiu.
On the third day, Chen Qiu arrived at the gate of the academy early to wait for Ye Chen. She said that she wanted him to see her as soon as he came out.
This time, the old Duke not only brought Black Hawk with him, but even Xiaofu followed closely behind Chen Qiu.
As soon as Ye Chen came out, he saw Chen Qiu standing in the distance, still at the place where he had been sent three days ago.
He ran to the carriage, hugged Chen Qiu, and kept calling: "Qiu'er, Qiu'er,"
Chen Qiu patted Ye Chen on the back and said, "Husband, shall we go home?"
Ye Chen let go of Chen Qiu and nodded, and they got on the carriage together to look at Xiaofu being pulled by Xing'er and Black Hawk driving the carriage.
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, said nothing, and followed Chen Qiu into the carriage. As soon as he sat down, before Chen Qiu was seated firmly, Ye Chen kissed him, and the kiss lasted for a long time.
Ye Chen looked at Chen Qiu, whose face was flushed from being kissed by him, and asked, leaning against Chen Qiu's forehead: "Qiu'er, do you miss me?"
Chen Qiu smiled and said, "Yes, I really do!"
Ye Chen couldn't bear it anymore and kissed her again!
