Chapter 83 Jiang Yunzheng Almost Killed
As soon as the words fell.
Jiang Yunzheng slowly put away the silver needle and a smile appeared on her face.
"It's naturally good that the prince has woken up."
The heat in Qi Yunshen's body slowly subsided, and he stared at Jiang Yunzheng with an ambiguous look in his eyes.
Qi An heard the noise and hurried forward, "Master, are you okay? Didn't you say it was just a minor injury?"
Qi Yunshen said calmly: "No problem."
Jiang Yunzheng stepped back and stood beside the bed.
Qi Yunshen happened to see Jiang Yunzheng's profile and heard her ask, "Since the prince is fine, why is he so weak?"
Qi Yunshen narrowed his eyes slightly, "I just took the medicine given by Doctor Luo in advance. If I'm going to put on a show, I have to do it well."
Jiang Yunzheng curled her lips and praised him insincerely, "Young Master, you are a master of strategy."
Apart from putting on a show and getting seriously injured in front of the assassins.
He was also testing her, otherwise why didn't he wake up earlier or later, but opened his eyes just when she started to give him acupuncture?
Qi Yunshen, this old fox!
Qi Yunshen was unwilling to give up, and said something else: "Doctor Jiang is a master of medicine, why can't he even diagnose Doctor Luo's medicine?"
Jiang Yunzheng lowered her eyes slightly, she was careless.
Thinking that she could kill Qi Yunshen today, she didn't delve into the reasons for Qi Yun's physical weakness.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Jiang Yunzheng lowered her eyes as she packed up her acupuncture bag. Her mind was racing, "People make mistakes, horses stumble, and this shows that the prince is not destined to die."
Qi Yunshen didn't argue with her anymore.
Jiang Yunzheng felt a little depressed. Qi Yunshen began to suspect her. It would not be easy to take Qi Yunshen's life in the future.
But at this moment, there were sudden sounds of footsteps outside.
Jiang Yunzheng pushed open the window and saw at least a hundred assassins, led by King Zhou, surrounding the inn.
The shop owner came out trembling, "Who are you?"
King Zhou took out his royal token and said, "I have been ordered to hunt down the Xixia assassin. If you have any sense, you will voluntarily hand him over. Otherwise, if I kill someone by mistake, I will not be held responsible."
The diners who were still eating in the lobby had to come out and gather outside the inn.
King Zhou snorted and laughed, "You guys are sensible."
Jiang Yunzheng leaned against the window.
Inside the house, Qi Yunshen had bandaged his wound and was sitting at the table, slowly drinking tea.
Qi An was polishing his sword on the side.
Seeing the two of them so leisurely, Jiang Yunzheng was not worried. It seemed like they had caught the turtle in the jar this time.
A voice came from below: "Xixia assassin up there, if you come down now, I can still leave you with an intact body."
It was quiet all around.
King Zhou's face turned green, and Qi Yunshen didn't even dare to respond. Was he looking down on him?
King Zhou ordered: "Go in and search!"
A man in blue called out to him. His eyes were different from those of the average Daliang man, being gray-blue. He pointed at the piles of hay stacked under the eaves:
"Your Highness, there might be a trick. Why don't we burn them with fire? We are not afraid that they will not come out."
Upon hearing this, King Zhou smiled and said, "You are very thoughtful."
The sound from below reached the second floor.
Qi Yunshen's expression remained unchanged, and he looked calm and composed.
Soon thick smoke rose from below.
The place where the hay was burned was under the room where Qi Yunshen and his friends lived.
At this moment, Qi An left the room and opened the wooden window of the guest room on the west side next door. Qi An pinched a little boy and pushed him out of the window, with most of the boy's body in mid-air.
King Zhou's eyes widened and he said angrily: "Qi Yunshen, you bastard, you dare to kidnap my son, let my son go!"
The flames instantly covered the haystack and grew bigger and bigger, but the people on it still did not move.
When the fire was about to burn the boy's clothes, he burst into tears, "Father, please save me, please save me, I'm scared."
King Zhou had no choice. The child was his eldest son, and he couldn't bear to watch the child die with his own eyes. He could only put out the fire first, and then glared at the gray-eyed man fiercely.
Only Jiang Yunzheng and Qi Yunshen were left in the room.
Jiang Yunzheng moved a bench and leaned against the window to listen to the noise below.
She thought for a moment, "Who are you going to trade for his son?"
"Doctor Jiang, you'll find out soon." Qi Yunshen paused, his eyebrows slightly raised. "I haven't asked Doctor Jiang why he appeared in the wilderness last night?"
Jiang Yunzheng chuckled: "I am not Zhuge Liang, so it is normal for me to be careless for a moment. Doesn't it mean that Prince Qi has never made mistakes?"
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the room suddenly turned cold.
Jiang Yunzheng didn't bother to pay attention to Qi Yunshen's gloomy face. She continued to listen to the noise outside.
Qi An put his sword against the belt of King Zhou's son and sent him out the window.
King Zhou was furious, and Qi An said he wanted to exchange the gray-eyed man beside him.
When the gray-eyed man heard this, he quickly shook his head and spoke in Daliang dialect in a hurry, which was very difficult to understand.
"Your Highness, there is a conspiracy going on. This cannot be allowed."
King Zhou kicked the man off his horse and said, "No! I just listened to you and my son almost died! Go in and replace him with me now!"
He was just a Xixia person, and he was dead if he died.
How dare you negotiate conditions with him? What are you dreaming of?
The gray-eyed man walked into the inn with a fearless attitude. The assassins around him were getting restless. Qi An sneered in his heart. Everything was just as the prince had expected!
As soon as the gray-eyed man stepped into the lobby of the inn, he was shot by an arrow by the secret guards who had been lying in ambush in advance. The gray-eyed man was quickly dragged away into the room next to Qi Yunshen.
Sitting inside was a middle-aged man with an imposing appearance. He was dressed in casual clothes, and standing next to him was a white-faced, beardless servant.
Emperor Jingming kicked the gray-eyed man on the shoulder. "We've caught him red-handed. Let's see how this bastard and the Chen family can deny it!"
The scene of the gray-eyed man being dragged away was seen entirely by the group of men in black.
Those people didn't listen to King Zhou's orders at all and ran directly into the inn. King Zhou then realized that something was wrong. Qi Yunshen had set up a trap on purpose!
In a blink of an eye, he rode his horse and wanted to run away.
But at this time, the group of "ordinary people" who had been driven out of the inn earlier, without knowing when, all picked up swords and swung them around, killing the guards around King Zhou.
The assassins who rushed in first were all shot by swords by the secret guards who were guarding somewhere unknown.
In a blink of an eye, more than half of King Zhou's men were killed.
In a place where no one noticed, the innkeeper stripped the clothes of King Zhou's guards from a dead man and rode away in a hurry.
The sound of horse hooves was heard everywhere, and King Zhou had nowhere to hide. In a blink of an eye, he became a lonely man.
Not far away, a thin figure led the army and rushed over with great momentum.
King Zhou looked at the man on horseback in the front and his legs went completely weak.
King Zhou knew that he was defeated today.
There was no sadness or joy in the prince's eyes. He had King Zhou tied up, then dismounted and went into the inn.
King Zhou cried out behind him, just like when he was little, "Brother Crown Prince, I was wrong."
The prince turned around and shook his head at him, "It's too late."
King Zhou felt cold all over. He raised his eyes and first saw the window on the haystack, where Qi Yunshen was standing.
And next to Qi Yunshen...
King Zhou met Emperor Jingming's angry and disappointed gaze and fell to the ground completely.
Everything failed.
All lost.
