Chapter 17 Surviving a catastrophe

Wan Nanshan heard the noise here first and ran over. He pushed the door open and saw Li Jiuzhou lying on the ground dying.

"There is an assassin!" Wan Nanshan shouted.

The government officials on duty rushed towards this side one after another, making several clanging noises, and several highly skilled government officials were already looking around, waving their sabers.

"Li Shaoyin, who did this?" Wan Nanshan squatted on the ground and helped Li Jiuzhou up.

The blood soaked his clothes, and the pain was so severe that he could no longer hold on. Li Jiuzhou's eyes dimmed, his lips moved, and he softly uttered two words: I don't know.

When he asked again, Li Jiuzhou closed his eyes and fainted from the pain.

The whole world became quiet.

Everyone in the Jingzhao Mansion had arrived. Wan Nanshan raised his head, glared angrily and chased after him with a knife raised.

A group of people searched for a long time, but there was no trace of the assassin.

How dare someone dare to commit murder in Jingzhao Mansion or assassinate the young Yin of Jingzhao Mansion?

Xianyu Zhongtong was also panicked and called in several capable officials.

"The murderer is really audacious and lawless. No matter what, I must find the murderer."

The Jingzhao Mansion is not all a waste of money. There are always a few people with real abilities who can't wait to show off.

The news that Li Jiuzhou was assassinated in Jingzhao Mansion undoubtedly quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.

Jingzhao Mansion is heavily guarded and is an important place in the capital and a place that the emperor relies heavily on.

It is also the most inviolable place in the capital apart from the imperial palace.

There was a murder in Jingzhao Mansion and the assassination of Shaoyin of Jingzhao Mansion. This is shocking enough.

Li Jiuzhou offended many people, but the most sensational one was the Yongyangfang arson case.

Rumors spread one after another. Some people said that the murderer was ordered by Wang Weng, a doctor from the Ministry of Finance, because Li Jiuzhou beat his son to death in public.

People also began to speculate whether there was a bigger backer hidden behind Wang Welding.

Who has the courage to risk the disapproval of the world and assassinate the great master Qingtian who makes the decision for the people?

Li Jiuzhou had a dream.

I dreamed that I was walking by the lake, and the boat in the lake slowly approached. Yang Yuhuan lifted the curtain on the boat and waved to herself.

Yang Yuhuan's face was so blurry.

The breeze came slowly and brushed my cheeks.

Li Jiuzhou opened his eyes, and the messy papers on the table made him recognize that this was his room.

No matter how shabby the house is, the Four Treasures of the Study will definitely be placed in the most conspicuous position.

When he has nothing to do, Li Jiuzhou practices calligraphy there.

This is also what he wants to do well when he travels here, and practice calligraphy until it is as beautiful as a calligrapher.

In the Tang Dynasty, writing beautifully was also a way to get promoted.

There is a faint fragrance, I can't tell what kind of flower it is.

"Ming Gong, you're awake." A pair of soft jade hands slowly helped him up.

Li Jiuzhou put up his hands and tried to sit up. He accidentally touched the injury on his shoulder and frowned in pain.

After taking a few breaths, he raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him. She turned out to be Wang Yuying whom she met in Yongyangfang that day.

Li Jiuzhou opened his eyes and looked carefully to confirm that he had recognized the right person.

No longer as gray as before, Wang Yuying wore clean clothes, revealing her original bright and beautiful face.

Just like a lotus flower that has just bloomed, Wang Yuying's smile was refreshing.

"Why are you here?" Li Jiuzhou's injury has not healed yet, and he still has some difficulty speaking.

Wang Yuying smiled slightly and was about to answer when Zhang Xiaoluo's voice came from outside the room: "Alang, you finally woke up."

Zhang Xiaoluo came in with a basin of water and wanted to help Li Jiuzhou wipe his face.

"I'll do it." Wang Yuying took the handkerchief from his hand.

Zhang Xiaoluo was sensible and knew not to disturb them at this time, so he went out to do other things.

She said she was wiping his face, but she carefully wiped the area around Li Jiuzhou's wound.

"If the wound is not wiped clean, it will become infected."

Wang Yuying said while wiping, her words were so soft that Li Jiuzhou felt a little soft.

Li Jiuzhou said "Ah", and the wound that was touched still hurt slightly.

"I'm sorry, Ming Gong, I'm really an eight-legged crab. I'm so stupid."

Wang Yuying's busy look made Li Jiuzhou want to laugh, but it was obviously inappropriate to laugh at this time.

Li Jiuzhou let her finish wiping him, but still looked at her with puzzled eyes, "Why are you here?"

Zhang Xiaoluo interrupted from afar outside the door: "She carried you back from Jingzhao Mansion."

Li Jiuzhou stood up to say thanks.

"Your wound has just been bandaged, don't move around." Wang Yuying helped him lie down, "It's not far, and besides, Ming Gong isn't serious either."

Li Jiuzhou looked at her frail body, and he was definitely tall and tall in front of her.

This made Li Jiuzhou very embarrassed. He was so embarrassed that he didn't want to continue this topic, so he scratched his head.

Wang Yuying put down her handkerchief and said: "I heard that Duke Ming was assassinated, and I was very worried. Duke Ming was so kind and virtuous that I could not repay him, so I came to take care of him."

Li Jiuzhou said oh and changed the subject: "Is your father okay?"

Unexpectedly, Wang Yuying shed tears, and even said while swallowing: "My mother died of illness, and Aye was very sad, and..."

It seems that she is the only one left in the family. She is such a poor woman. Li Jiuzhou comforted her: "Young lady, don't be too sad. I believe that your father's spirit is in heaven and he doesn't want to see you so sad."

"Thank you for your guidance tomorrow."

"You are alone and helpless. It is not easy for your daughter's family to go out to make a living. If you don't mind, just stay at home." Li Jiuzhou knew that she was pitiful.

"That's great, there is one more person to take care of A Lang." Zhang Xiaoluo was already standing at the door, jumping up and down with joy.

The most important thing is that in the future, when Li Jiuzhou is not at home, there will be someone to play with him.

Wang Yuying thanked her and said, "Ming Gong's kindness to this little girl is unforgettable."

Li Jiuzhou put on his coat and struggled to get out of bed holding on to the edge of the bed.

I don't know how long he lay there, but he couldn't lie down anymore.

For people like him, lying in bed is a waste of time.

Wang Yuying hurriedly came up to help him. It was obvious that she was really stupid when it came to taking care of people.

Because not only did she not help Li Jiuzhou up, she actually touched the wound on Li Jiuzhou's arm that was supporting the bed.

"Ming Gong, you must be hungry. I'll make you something to eat." Wang Yuying blushed, turned around and walked out.

"Ming Gong, you are so powerful."

Wang Yuying praised Li Jiuzhou loudly while cooking, for fear of being left out.

"What's so great?"

"You're so injured that you didn't even cry out in pain."

These words made Li Jiuzhou a little embarrassed and he didn't know how to answer it.

"On the day you tried Wang Qing, the people couldn't tell how moved they were. They all said you were amazing. You did a good thing for the people and eliminated a disaster."

After saying that, she paused again: "Ming Gong, you are a good person, but you should also be more careful. Those bad people can do anything."

Good guy, Li Jiuzhou chuckled.

In the 21st century, it would not be a good thing for a girl to say that you are a good person.

Being a good person means saying you are mediocre, saying you are incompetent, and saying you are weak.

Li Jiuzhou is not a weak and mediocre person, he will cause ripples wherever he goes.
