Qi Jue noticed something wrong with Yuan Jinshen's leg almost immediately, and immediately stepped forward to hold Yuan Jinshen's arm.
The tone was different from usual gentleness: "Young Master Yuan Er doesn't need to be too polite. We are all a family, so don't worry about these false etiquette."
Yuan Jinshen was obviously stunned. What does a family mean? He could understand every word of this, but how could it be combined into a sentence, but he was still confused?
Really, if the current situation wasn't special, Feiyu would have wanted to give His Highness a thumbs up.
Look, no wonder His Highness was able to capture Miss Yan's heart. His Highness did not miss this opportunity to show off his face in front of Miss Yan's family!
"Why did Your Highness... come here?"
Qi Jue came to the medicine shop. Could it be that the news that he was still alive had already spread?
Although he knew that Qi Jue was not an enemy, the current situation was complicated and he could not reveal his identity. While he was asking Qi Jue, Yuan Jinshen was already planning in his heart to leave this place quickly.
"It was Zhuzhu who told me that you are recuperating here. Young Master Yuan Er does not need to worry too much. Except for my people, no one knows that you are still alive. I and Zhuzhu are of the same mind and will never do any harm.
Matters of the Yuan family."
Yuan Jin looked deeply into Qi Jue's eyes. The person in front of him had a cold and sincere expression. Yuan Jin deeply remembered that Yan Mingzhu had said something about Qi Jue's help to the Yuan family before, so she let down her guard.
But then, Yuan Jinshen felt that something was not right. King Dingbei called his cousin Zhuzhu. Is this title... too intimate?
"I am here this time to help the Yuan family reverse the case. Soon, I will need the help of Second Young Master Yuan."
While speaking, Qi Jue gave Ji Jingxue a look, and Ji Jingxue immediately understood and invited everyone else out, leaving only Qi Jue and Yuan Jinshen.
Qi Jue revealed his plan to Yuan Jinshen without reservation. After listening, Yuan Jinshen was keenly aware of something, "Your Highness, where is Zhuzhu right now? Is she in any danger?"
"
"She is very good. I have retained someone to protect her. It is just because an unexpected situation has occurred, so I have to advance the plan. Young Master Yuan Er does not need to worry too much. I will definitely be the mastermind behind the frame of the Yuan family.
I won’t let anyone go.”
After learning that Yan Mingzhu was fine, Yuan Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time held up his hands. Although he was sitting, he solemnly bowed his thanks to Qi Jue.
"My father, brother and others were killed by traitors and died on the battlefield. I was the only one who survived. It would be very difficult to overturn the verdict in the Battle of Yueshan. Your Highness spent so much time planning for the Yuan family and was such a great kindness. I have no way to repay you. I can only repay you."
This life is at your command!"
The son of the Yuan family has always attached great importance to love and righteousness, and every drop of kindness will be repaid by a spring. What's more, Qi Jue wants to wash away their grievances. Such a great kindness, even if his body is broken into pieces, he cannot repay the kindness.
"Young Master Yuan Er is treating me like an outsider if you continue to treat me like an outsider. Besides, doing things for your own family is what you should do. How can you say that you are a great favor?"
Yuan Jin was confused. Who is his family member? Who is his family member?
Before Yuan Jin could think about it, Qi Jue didn't stay any longer, "Time is running out, so I'll take my leave. Mr. Yuan Er, please rest well. When the time comes, I will contact you."
After leaving the wing, Qi Jue stopped in front of Lin Sangzhi, "Did the people you sent to Beiliang find anything?"
"Not yet. The commander-in-chief of Beiliang is extremely vigilant. Our people have not found a breakthrough yet."
Qi Jue frowned, time was running out and he couldn't wait any longer.
"Feiyu, please leave the arrangements. I will leave Jozhao for a few days. If I do not return within the deadline, I will follow the instructions above."
While talking, Qi Jue handed Feiyu a secret letter.
But Feiyu didn't answer. Instead, he knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Highness, Beiliang's group is in great danger. Please let me go with you!"
"This is an order, you just have to follow it."
There was no room for criticism in Qi Jue's words. Feiyu could only grit his teeth and accept the secret message. He looked at Ji Jingxue and said, "Commander Ji, no matter what happens, you must ensure the safety of His Highness!"
After giving instructions on everything, Qi Jue and Ji Jingxue mounted their fast horses and rushed to Beiliang as quickly as possible.
Here, Pei Duqin arrived in a small village and found a family according to the location on the letter.
By chance, a little girl was feeding chickens by the vegetable garden. She saw that the person who came looked very noble, and there were several people who seemed to be attendants following behind her. She immediately became alert and said, "Master, who are you looking for?"
"I am in a hurry and want to ask for a drink of water."
Pei Duqin's tone was gentle. He already had a good face, and his smile made him feel more approachable.
After all, the little girl was still young, so she quickly lowered her guard and said, "Master, wait a moment."
When the little girl turned around to get water from the house, Pei Duqin stood there, feeling very confused, while the guards following him couldn't wait any longer.
"Second Young Master, the address given by the Queen is here. Judging from the age of the woman, she seems to match it. Take action quickly, otherwise it will be too late and it will ruin the big thing!"
Pei Duqin slowly closed his eyes and moved his fingers. The guards immediately understood, pushed open the bamboo door, and rushed in.
Soon, I heard the panicked voice of the little girl coming from inside: "You... what are you going to do? Oh, help..."
Along with a few popping sounds, the little girl's voice soon disappeared.
Just when Pei Duqin thought that the matter had been settled, suddenly there were muffled sounds in the house, followed by fire spreading from inside the house.
Pei Duqin realized something was wrong and immediately ran over to check. Unexpectedly, when he opened the door, he found that the guards he had brought were fighting with another group of men in black.
I don't know who set the fire in the house. The fire spread very quickly, and the little girl tremblingly tried to run out.
Pei Duqin gritted his teeth, pulled out his sword, and struck at the little girl's lifeline!
Just as he was cutting off a strand of the little girl's hair, a man in black blocked Pei Duqin's attack with a long sword.
The two of them exchanged hands. In the process, the fire spread to the beams. With a crackling sound, the beams finally couldn't withstand the attack of the fire and fell down with a snap.
Pei Duqin's eyes were pierced by the fire. In order to avoid the falling beams, he suddenly stepped back several steps.
During this gap, the man in black hugged the little girl and was about to jump out of the window. In desperation, Pei Duqin slashed at her with his sword, but he only cut the sleeve of the man in black's left arm.
But at that moment, Pei Duqin saw a pattern painted on the left arm of the man in black. The shape of this pattern... he had never seen before!
