Chapter 272

As the night falls, the continuous drizzle falls quietly at night. Qingfengyuan is wrapped by the silent night, and occasionally there is the "tick" sound of rain falling from the tiles. Zhao's mother poured hot water into the bath bucket, and the dense white fog surrounded Wang Xiushu's skin like coagulated fat. Mother Zhao put the medicine bag in the bucket, and the fragrance spread in the water.

"This is the medicine for dispelling cold prescribed by the government doctors. Soak it first," said mother Zhao. She stood up from the bath bucket and patted her skirt. "The young master came back. I'll prepare some hot porridge for him to eat."

Wang Xiushu nodded and closed her eyes comfortably: "thank you, mom Zhao."

Mother Zhao walked out of the house quietly around the landscape screen. Wang Xiushu gently raised her head to breathe. She felt that the nasal cavity was smooth, and the heaviness of her forehead seemed to be alleviating. She couldn't help softening her body, leaning against the bath bucket, gently resting her head on her arm and enjoying it leisurely.

Zhao's mother brings the hot porridge to the front hall. Ruan Tianqi changes his clothes which are wet by the rain. His blue shirt is baked by charcoal fire, with a slight warmth. Mother Zhao put the porridge on the table and called softly, "young master, fill your stomach with some porridge."

Ruan Tianqi went to the table and began to drink. As if thinking of something, he raised his head and asked, "Mom Zhao, is Xiushu better?"

"It's better. I still have a cough, but the heat is gone." Mother Zhao replied with a smile.

Ruan Tianqi put down his heart. He was about to put down the spoon in his hand, but he heard a panic call in the distance: "come on!" Then there is the "Hua La" sound of water, which startles Ruan Tianqi and Zhao's mother in the front hall. The direction of the voice is Wang Xiushu's room, Ruan Tian Qilian hurried past.

A figure jumps into the room. When Ruan Tianqi rushes to the room, quesheng follows the figure. Ruan Tianqi took a look. Instead of following, he pushed the door open and went behind the screen. At this time, Wang Xiushu stood on a piece of water stains. She was covered with a thin layer of white yarn. The water on her hair dyed the yarn open, revealing the color of her skin.

"Shu'er, what's the matter?" Ruan Tian Qilian quickly took off his coat and put it on Wang Xiushu's body. He saw a mess in the room. The bath bucket was neatly cut into two pieces and poured to one side. The landscape screen is dilapidated, leaving traces of being scratched by sharp blades everywhere. Wang Xiushu's heart is not calm down, she tightly grabbed the thin white veil, but her face is as white as white paper.

"There are assassins." Wang Xiushu's teeth were trembling. She coughed twice. The cold wind slipped into the room along the door and blew gently in front of her ears. The water stains on her body were already cold and penetrated her skin. She couldn't help shaking.

"Quesheng has gone after him. Have you seen the man's face?" Ruan Tianqi asked, mother Zhao took the clothes for Wang Xiushu to put on, for her to put on autumn board mink, Wang Xiushu's body this just warm up.

Wang Xiushu shook her head: "her face is covered with a veil, I can't see clearly." She recalled that she felt a little frightened. If she hadn't dodged in time, the blade with cold light in the assassin's hand would have pierced her chest.

At this time, quesheng has caught up with the assassin in black. Seeing that he could not escape, the assassin retreated and chopped off his sword. Quesheng dodged the sword, took out the sword from his waist and waved it to the assassin. On the top of the beam, the two men fought fiercely. The assassin slowly changed from attacking to defending, and was forced to take the sword from quesheng.

Quesheng saw the right time. As soon as he picked the sword, the assassin's wrist was scratched with a long mark. With a scream, the assassin's sword fell to the ground.

"Who are you?" Quesheng asked, "who sent you?"

The man held his wrist in agony. Quesheng lifted his veil with the end of his sword and pulled it off the beam. The assassin was ugly with a red birthmark on his face. The assassin snorted coldly: "if you want to kill or cut anyone, you'll be in your hands today. It's bad luck for me."

Ruan Tianqi holds Wang Xiushu in his arms. He goes out of the room, and quesheng drags the assassin's collar and throws it to Ruan Tianqi and Wang Xiushu. Wang Xiushu saw that this person's face was terrible, and she was also surprised: "what's the relationship between me and you? Why do you want to assassinate me?"

"I'm just taking money to do things," the assassin sneered. His eyes swept on Wang Xiushu. He bit her hard and blood gushed from his mouth. He laughed at Wang Xiushu with a licentious smile. "You are a good girl, but I sent someone to kill you, otherwise..." the assassin coughed twice, and Ruan Tianqi came forward immediately when he heard his words, Take out quesheng's sword and stab him in the heart.

The assassin's face was twisted in pain. He struggled twice and fell heavily behind him. Ruan Tianqi pulled out his sword and said to quesheng, "deal with him. Don't let others see him."

"Yes." Quesheng picked up the body of the assassin and went down.

If this is not the Pingnan Marquis's house, he will not be cheap. The assassin will be torn apart and his eyes will be dug out“ This man was able to go in and out of Pingnan Marquis's house freely. It must have been sent by the people in Pingnan Marquis's house. " Wang Xiushu said. Pingnan Marquis's residence is also a large family with complex courtyards. The assassin obviously came for him. He must be familiar with Pingnan Marquis's residence.

"I'm afraid it's the old lady." Ruan Tianqi road. Although Ruan Juan's wives are all rich families, there are no people with excellent martial arts skills under them. Ruan Juan's officers and men are made up of the imperial court, so they will not work for him privately. If you think about it, only the old lady and the old Marquis can have this ability.

Wang Xiushu agrees with Ruan Tianqi. The old lady is very strict with her now. Ruan Tianming's case has been suspected by the old lady. She is not the one who gives up easily. Ruan Tianqi and Wang Xiushu's disobedience annoys her, and the old lady has never given up on the case of Princess Qianyue.

The old lady has regarded Wang Xiushu as an eyesore“ These days, it seems that I'm going to pretend to be ill. The old lady sent someone to assassinate me. Naturally, the old lady is interested in this person's ability. If she knew that this person didn't hurt me, she would doubt that she had the power to protect me. "Wang Xiushu sighed," these days, I will publicize that I was stabbed and need to rest. "

"I will ask quesheng to send more people to strengthen the guard of Qingfeng hospital." Ruan Tianqi thought of it and felt frightened. The old lady had ulterior motives. Now his life in Pingnan Marquis's house is more difficult. How can he rest assured to let Wang Xiushu.

Ruan Tianqi helps Wang Xiushu back to the room. Wang Xiushu is lying on the couch. She coughs in fright and her charming cheeks are stained with red“ Tianqi, there is one thing I want to tell you, "Wang Xiushu took Ruan Tianqi's hand, her eyes slightly wrinkled and opened her mouth," the fifth lady told me that you should never go to the Jin Wei kingdom. "

"How did she know I was going to go to the kingdom of Jin and Wei?" Ruan Tianqi was a little surprised, and a trace of consternation flashed in his eyes.
