Chapter 91 Abu's Background
There were more than twenty assassins, all of them were very skilled.
However, they underestimated the strength of Lan Shu and Wei Qingyan, and also underestimated Du Xueyi, the Marquis of Anyuan who had returned from fighting on the battlefield.
Shi Yu was even more beyond their expectations.
"What a pity, no one was left alive." Du Xueyi said with some regret.
The assassin had poison hidden in his mouth and under his fingernails. As soon as he saw signs of being captured alive, he immediately took the poison and committed suicide. He was a well-trained assassin.
"It's okay." Wei Qingyan gently wiped the Broken Evil on his hand. These assassins were obviously coming for A Gu, and there were only a few of them.
Lan Shu checked Wei Qingyan and saw that she was not injured, so she said, "Miss, go back to your room and rest first. I will take these bodies to the Dali Temple to report the case tomorrow morning."
Du Xueyi echoed, "I'll go with Auntie."
These people dared to come to his house and assassinate him so blatantly. If he didn't make a big deal out of this, he, the Marquis of Anyuan, would never be able to gain a foothold in the capital.
Wei Qingyan shook his head. "Instead of going to the Dali Temple, we should go to the Ministry of Justice. The Xie family has claimed that Liu He committed suicide out of fear of punishment. So, we can use tonight's incident to spread the news of Liu He's death."
In the Huangshaling incident, the Ministry of Justice could not find the cause and let Liu He die.
If the Ministry of Justice still can't figure out what happened tonight, how long can Xie Shen remain the Minister of Justice?
Du Xueyi understood Wei Qingyan's intention and nodded, "I understand."
He had a vague idea of who was behind the assassination tonight, but as for who should take the blame, let the Xie family worry about it.
Who knows, the Xie family may be involved here.
"Leave it to Dongzang." Shi Yu took over the conversation and said to Wei Qingyan, "Xueyi and A'gu just keep an eye on the Ministry of Justice for the results."
Hearing the word "Auntie".
Lan Shu and Du Xueyi looked at him together.
Du Xueyi looked at her closely and said, "I called Senior Lan 'A-gu' just because I followed the general. When did the relationship between Prince Rong and A-gu become so good?"
Lan Shu looked worried. The girl was finally going to be taken away by a man from the royal family. She had to find a suitable mountain to live in seclusion.
Shi Yu took in everything the two were thinking and smiled gently.
Wei Qingyan thought about the misleading rumors that Shi Yu had spread after Wu Yuchu's death, and thought that he must have someone in his command who was responsible for this matter.
Compared to Du Xueyi, who had just returned to Beijing, he was indeed more suitable, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
After the matter was settled, Shi Yu asked people to help the guards of Anyuan Marquis Mansion clean up Fengxiao Courtyard.
Lan Shu asked someone to get some hot water for Wei Qingyan. "There's blood on your body, girl. Take a bath and go to bed early. Staying up late is not good for your health."
Taking care of the girl is her first priority.
Faced with Lan Shu's care and concern, Wei Qingyan has always been extremely obedient.
She smiled at Shi Yu, held Posha across her back with her hands, and let Lan Shu pull her into the house.
Seeing such a well-behaved Wei Qingyan, Shi Yu really wanted to touch her head.
But he just smiled back at her in the end.
A'gu's eyes were wary, and it was obvious that she was not very satisfied with herself. Thinking of her experience, Shi Yu understood Lan Shu's thoughts, but Xiao Yan regarded Lan Shu as an elder, so he would also respect Lan Shu.
After all, he and Xiaoyan still have a lifetime to live together.
Wei Qingyan had no idea what Shi Yu was thinking. Lan Shu held her in the bathtub until she fell asleep. After she got up, Lan Shu applied ointment on every scar on her body.
Lan Shu bought these scar removal creams from a famous doctor.
However, it was useless for the scars on Wei Qingyan's body, but she still persisted in applying it to her, as if the scars would heal one day if she persisted.
Although this ointment is worth a thousand gold coins per bottle.
As she was applying the cream, Lan Shu asked in surprise, "Girl, how come this scar is gone?"
After taking care of Wei Qingyan for these years, Lan Shu was familiar with every scar on her body. The two scars on her body disappeared because she resolved the grudge between Fang and Gong Changying.
Recently, the girl has not helped anyone to resolve their grievances, but the scar under her collarbone has disappeared, which makes her happy and surprised.
Wei Qingyan also looked below his collarbone. That was when he was at Huangshaling, and an arrow from the Beiling Army pierced his body.
It was this arrow that made her so exhausted that she almost fainted. Abu took the opportunity to remove her armor...
Wei Qingyan raised his hand and gently stroked the area that had recovered and the scar was almost unnoticeable, frowning slightly.
The scar only disappeared today. Otherwise, considering how much Auntie valued her, she would have discovered it when she was applying medicine on her last night.
She went to Gong's house today, and then to Prince Rong's Mansion.
Abu?
Wei Qingyan quickly put on his clothes, walked behind the screen and picked up the Posha standing in the corner.
There is no difference between Po Sha and being in Prince Rong's Mansion.
"What's wrong?" Lan Shu asked in confusion, "Is this your old weapon?"
She looked at what the girl brought back tonight.
Wei Qingyan hummed softly, "It's called Posha, my father gave it to me."
Lan Shu then took a closer look at Posha and asked in surprise, "Mysterious Iron from outer space?"
When the girl came back at night, an assassin appeared. She didn't have time to see him. Now the more she looked at him carefully, the more it looked like alien iron.
"Auntie, do you know me?"
Lan Shu nodded, "It is said that the outer space black iron fell from the sky and is very rare in the world. My ancestor was lucky enough to get a piece of it and forged the Dragon and Phoenix Sword, which became the Lan family heirloom.
The remaining piece of material was treasured in the treasure house of the Sword Casting Villa. Countless people wanted to get this piece of black iron, and many souls died on the Yin-Yang Road because of it.
Decades ago, my grandfather gave it to Master Yilian, and only then did our villa find peace."
Fat monk?
Wei Qingyan's brows deepened. "Auntie, have you ever seen a fat monk with weapons made of black iron?"
Lan Shu shook her head, "I've never seen him carry a weapon."
Wei Qingyan has been inseparable from the fat monk in recent years, but he has never seen him.
According to what Auntie said, the black iron from outer space is rare in the world, and Yu Liangzhi once said that the fat monk and his father were good friends. Could it be that this piece of broken iron was given to his father by the fat monk?
"Besides the piece in the fat monk's hand, is it possible that other people also have the mysterious iron?"
Lan Shu smiled and put a piece of clothing on her, "My girl, that is a gift from heaven, extremely rare, and cannot be found anywhere else.
Otherwise, those people wouldn't have tried so hard to sneak in and steal the black iron even though they knew it was difficult to enter the Sword Forging Villa."
In that case, is it really possible that the fat monk gave it to my father?
Wei Qingyan felt a little happy.
Her father gave her the Posha after he got it. If Posha had been following the fat monk before, she might have been blessed by him.
Then the hope that Abu placed in it would be even greater.
She didn't know what this had to do with her scars, but she didn't really care about having scars on her body.
But Lan Shu cared, so Wei Qingyan told her that Abu's soul might be stored in Posha.
Lan Shu sighed and said, "Perhaps that child was born with a noble fate and died unjustly. Now that you have gathered his soul for him, it can be considered a merit. Therefore, the scars on his body have healed?"
Auntie's words reminded Wei Qingyan of Abu's life experience.
She stole Abu from the slave camp, where the prisoners were either from the previous dynasty or the families of convicted officials. Logically, they were not destined to be rich.
But what A-gu said does make sense. If she hadn't done good deeds, her scars would not have disappeared.
Could it be that Abu was not the child of a criminal slave at all?
That……
Wei Qingyan looked at Lan Shu and suddenly had an absurd idea.
