Chapter 1047: Injured
Zhulan waited for a while, but still no one came. She felt a little uneasy. There were many skilled people in the mansion, and there were also the emperor's men, so no one would come to attack her.
Zhulan stood up and stood at the door. She couldn't see outside the main courtyard, but could only hear some noises. The noises just stopped and started again. Her heart skipped a beat. They were really full of hatred. That's right, Zhou Shuren had done so many bad things. Now that one group has calmed down, another group has come in. They are determined to use the Zhou family as a scapegoat!
And she was just the one who took the initiative. Everyone knew how much Zhou Shuren cared about her as his wife.
Yang Wen held a sword in his hand, "Auntie, please go in, I'll guard the yard."
Zhulan looked at Yang Wen who had been guarding the yard. The boy was only a dozen years old, but he was so calm. "Aren't you afraid?"
Yang Wen shook his head, "Don't be afraid. When I was in Lizhou, I had been with my father for a year. I also followed my father to suppress the horse bandits. Auntie, I have killed people before."
Zhu Lan was completely stunned. Yang Wen may be a grown-up, but he is still a child. "Have you seen blood?"
Yang Wen nodded, "I have seen it. When I returned home last year, I was also in the barracks. In winter, there were many desperate bandits on the border."
Zhulan felt uncomfortable. Was this her nephew's love for Yang Wen? Was this fatherly love? Was he hoping that Yang Wen could learn more skills and live a good life in the future? "Your father is very thoughtful."
Yang Wen nodded. "I know everything."
If it wasn't for the Yang family, how could his father let him die so early? The night before he left, he wanted to chat with his father for a while longer at night, but he overheard his mother crying. His father's voice was also hoarse. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but tighten the sword in his hand again.
Suddenly there was a noise. The two servants guarding the door rushed out. The door to the main courtyard was closed. Zhulan stood at the door without moving. Yang Wen also nervously went to the door.
At Shi's house, Yao Xin was just holding the child. There was some commotion outside. Even in the backyard, she could hear the noise. She didn't dare to think about what would happen if she stayed at home. Looking at Yao Yao sitting beside her holding the child, she moved the corners of her mouth. "Thank you."
Yao Yao was distracted. Was she panicking? She had always known that something was wrong at home? She thought it had something to do with Yao Hou Mansion? Her husband had frequent contacts with the mansion, but she knew they were not sincere. She looked down at her son. She knew that her husband had been using her son's body, and she had also covered up for him a lot.
Yao Xin didn't wait for a reply and didn't think much about it, thinking that Yao Yao was also afraid. She just couldn't help but look at Yao Yao's son a little more. She had heard a lot that the child was frail and sickly and fell ill from time to time, but now something seemed wrong. His face didn't look like that of a sickly child.
When Yao Yao came back to her senses, she saw Yao Xin looking at the child. She raised her hand and covered her son's face with her sleeve. If her husband hadn't reminded her, she would not have gone to pick up Yao Xin. There was no such thing as sisterhood.
Yao Xin curled her lips. She missed her husband. Then she thought, it was a good thing that her husband was not there, otherwise who knows what would have happened!
The door to the main courtyard of the Zhou family finally opened. Yang Wen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Jianyan who came in. "Are you injured?"
Jianyan had wounds on his back and chest. Even though he was wearing dark clothes, you could still see the blood. "It's okay."
Zhulan asked, "Have you solved it?"
Jianyan was filled with fear. He had never expected that two groups of people would come, and that they would come from different directions. Fortunately, the Zhou family's servants were very skilled and stopped them near the mansion wall. The only one who ran over was already dead. "Everyone who broke in was dead."
Zhu Lan exhaled, "Let those without hands continue to guard, you take care of the injured and bandage them first. Yes, is anyone at home injured or killed? Is the boss injured?"
Jianyan's face was heavy. Some of the people were people he had led before. "The master is fine. He only had some minor injuries. Three of the servants died, and several were seriously injured."
This was the first time someone in Zhulan's family had died. She felt heavy-hearted and said, "Let's go see a doctor and treat the wound first."
Jianyan did not dare to delay any longer, "Yes."
Zhulan thought to herself that it was fortunate that she had thought it through and invited the doctor back when she went to pick up the person. Now that the commotion outside had calmed down, she didn't know how many casualties there were, and the doctors in the capital were not enough.
Mingyun walked to her grandmother's side and said, "Grandma, let me go and take a look."
Zhulan looked at her eldest grandson's determined eyes. This child was worried about the eldest child. Now the eldest child was injured. As the man who could support the family, the eldest grandson had to go. This was his growth. She had no reason to hold him back. "Go."
Li held her waist. She heard it and knew her husband was injured. She looked down at her belly and then at her eldest son who had left with the servant. Her eyes were slightly red. "Mother, is everything safe at home?"
Zhulan was surprised that Li didn't make a scene. "Yeah, it's all right now."
Even if someone came, they would not turn back, because there was no chance of turning back. The two groups of people already looked up to the Zhou family, otherwise, even if she wanted to train her eldest grandson, she would not agree so readily.
The person Li trusted the most was her mother-in-law. She felt relieved and looked at her with admiration. Her mother-in-law was always very calm, so she was the mistress of the family. When her father-in-law was not at home, her mother-in-law was the pillar of the family. "Mother, your daughter-in-law also wants to be like you."
Zhulan, "...You don't have a chance in this life. You don't have good innate conditions. Try to be born into a good family in your next life!"
Lee, "......."
Yu Lu, who came over and wanted to support her mother, looked at her grandmother speechlessly. At this time, her grandmother could still talk to her mother, it seemed that everything was really fine.
The tense atmosphere in the room disappeared, and Yu Shuang's straight back relaxed. She sat with her back bent, wiping her forehead with a handkerchief.
Song Lan looked at his godmother in a daze, "Godmother, aren't you afraid?"
He was still standing at the door, with no intention of coming in.
Zhulan did not expect herself to be so calm. She probably felt intuitively that everything was fine. No, not directly, but she had arranged everything that could be arranged. She had no fear in her heart because she understood that the Zhou family was just a by-product. Even if some people came, in order to get rid of the soldiers outside, not too many people would come.
Zhulan's smile was now cheerful, "As long as we make arrangements, there's nothing to be afraid of."
Song Lan shook his head in his heart, no, even if everything was arranged, he would still be afraid. This only shows that his godmother is very strong-willed, which is not something that ordinary people can have.
Inside the palace, the Emperor saw the Crown Prince coming in, and he took a quick step forward, took the Crown Prince's arm, and looked his eldest son up and down carefully. God knows how furious he was when he received the news, but this was the path his eldest son had chosen, and he understood, so he agreed, but he was still worried.
The prince saw clearly how anxious his father was. None of his own men had moved today. They were all his father's men. His father had secretly arranged many people to protect him. "Father, I am fine."
The emperor patted the prince's shoulder. This child was like him in nature, both were crazy. He turned around and pulled Rongchuan over, looking at him carefully, "Good boy, I'm glad you're not hurt."
Rongchuan felt weird in his heart but he couldn't suppress it this time. The emperor was the prince's biological father. The prince was not only his son but also the future emperor. It was normal for the emperor to be nervous, but was he too nervous towards him?
