Chapter 1187 Chapter 1187
Pei An's eyes darkened slightly, his face gloomy. He did not speak, but asked Song Guanzhou, "How many thieves are chasing you?"
"There should be three. Two will take my and Honeysuckle's lives, and the other one is more capable and will lead Linshan away with a bow and crossbow—"
"It's so heartbreaking!"
Qin Qingdong was cursing when Pei Chen came over with Xu Lingqiao and two maids. Xu Lingqiao was holding Song Guanzhou's clothes. When she saw Song Guanzhou, she could no longer control her pace and trotted over with her skirt lifted.
"Watching the boat——"
She had been kidnapped and knew what it felt like to be on the verge of death.
Seeing Linshan and Rendong being carried back to the main hall separately, she was frightened out of her wits. Although she heard Linshan say in person that the Fourth Young Master's wife was fine, she was still worried.
Now when she saw him, she saw Song Guanzhou covered in blood.
For a moment, I was filled with sadness.
She rushed to Song Guanzhou, hugged him, and sobbed. Song Guanzhou hugged her back and whispered in her ear, "Sister, I'm not hurt, don't worry."
"Watching the boat..."
Xu Lingqiao was choking with sobs and unable to utter a complete sentence. She felt as if her internal organs were broken by fear. Now, looking at Song Guanzhou, who was in good health and walking on crutches, she realized how surprised and happy she was to have lost and then found again.
"Good sister, please don't hug me. I smell blood all over my body. Don't you feel sick when you smell it?"
Song Guanzhou gently helped Xu Lingqiao away and wiped the tears that rolled down her face. Xu Lingqiao wiped the tears with her backhand and said with red eyes, "Who on earth is it that can't bear to see you live a day——"
"Well! Who is the murderer? It depends on how the government investigates."
Is it possible to find out?
not necessarily!
In this case, she didn't look forward to it. Now that she had saved her life, she was exhausted both physically and mentally, and she didn't want to think about the future. Just for now, she should forget about it!
Qin Qingdong also felt strange at this moment. He wanted to ask Pei An how he knew that Song Guanzhou had encountered bad guys, but the people around him were either the masters and servants of the mansion or the masters and monks of Longen Temple.
It's not a good time to speak.
Doubts arose again, and he had a vague idea of who it was, but he immediately denied it.
She is just a woman, how dare she? But the next moment he denied it dejectedly, why not? Isn't Xu Lingqiao in front of him an example?
Such a pretty girl was sold just like that.
Is there anything she dare not do?
He listened to a little of the secrets that Jianji Ruicha had brought, and then gave up. His elder brother told him that General Jin was very special now. He did not like the prince and was not highly loyal to the emperor.
"It's not the time to break up yet, but don't have any more contact with Miss Jin. His Majesty and the Queen Mother asked her to marry He Jiang, which is enough to prove that His Majesty is helpless against the general."
"Brother, I never thought Fuyun had changed so much."
"Maybe she has always been like this. The girl is capable, but her heart is biased. The general and the princess don't know her inner obsession with Pei Si. You don't have to know everything that Ji Ruijian found out, but it's not wrong to have less contact with her."
Now seeing that Song Guanzhou had escaped death, he was extremely angry.
The main hall was filled with people from the mansion. Xiao Bei brought servants and guards to guard the female members of the family, fearing that the thief would come back. Not long after, someone came to report that the fourth young master's wife was fine.
After a while, Rendong and Linshan also returned to the hall one after another.
"Amitabha, please come inside with me first to treat the arrow wound." The monk doctor came forward and took the two patients. Xiao Yinxiu touched his chest with a scarf in his hand, and he couldn't suppress the fear for a long time.
"How come you ran into a bad guy out of nowhere?"
Looking down, Lin Shan had two arrow wounds and half of his body was covered in blood. Mrs. Mei fainted at the sight of blood and could barely stand. Gu, Pei Shuyu and Mei Qingyu supported her. Qi Yueniang was very worried and asked about Song Guanzhou's condition.
Lin Shan endured the pain and repeated, "Don't worry, Madam, the Fourth Young Master has already picked you up and will be here soon."
"well."
Qi Yueniang was incoherent. To be honest, this was the first time that the women in the family had ever encountered someone suddenly killing someone.
Mrs. Mei recovered and called Pei Hua, who had just come in, to ask about the situation.
"Don't worry, mother. According to what my fourth brother's wife said, there were three thieves. Two of them died in that messy and abandoned small Buddhist temple, and the other escaped with injuries. The monks in the temple are searching the whole temple, and the guards and servants in our house have also been sent out to search the mountain. I don't believe that this villain has wings and can fly away."
Everyone is outraged!
Such an incident had not happened in the capital for many years. The young lady of a noble mansion was assassinated in Longen Temple.
"I'm glad Guanzhou is alright. He must have been frightened. Maids, come over quickly."
Mrs. Mei's legs and feet were shaking as she spoke. She couldn't even remember the names of the maids and servants, so she just shouted, "Brother Bei's wife, you are pregnant. This time you come out, you can bring some herbs that can calm the mind and nourish the fetus. If you have any, let the maid borrow a stove from the monks and make some. Guanzhou will be back soon and have a cup of it. You sisters-in-law, if you are frightened, can also have a few mouthfuls to calm your nerves."
Zhang Fanghui nodded, "Don't worry, Second Aunt, I have the child with me. I'll send someone to cook it now."
The maid obeyed the order and left. When she reached the door, she was too timid to step out. She turned back and whispered, "Madam, our medicine is in the carriage. Now I..."
If you say you are not afraid, that would be a lie.
Seeing this, Xiao Bei called two servants to accompany the four maids and servants, "Be careful."
Maybe the thief was desperate and kidnapped the little maid. The lives of these servants were not valuable compared to their masters.
Hearing that Song Guanzhou was fine, Xiao Yinxiu felt very complicated.
If she had really been stabbed twice by the thief, she would only feel regret; but now that she heard the news and knew that Song was unharmed, she felt uneasy again.
Shuangyue came forward to help her, but was also scolded by her for no reason.
About an incense stick of time later, Song Guanzhou was seen entering the main hall surrounded by a group of people. Pei An and Xu Lingqiao were guarding him on his left and right, Qin Qingdong and Pei Chen were following behind, and two maids helped to smooth his hair or lift his skirt from time to time.
He didn't look as weak as I had imagined, crying and wiping tears. Instead, he looked more energetic.
However, the women who had lived in the boudoir for a long time had never seen such a scene. Song Guanzhou's clothes were all stained with blood. His originally orange-yellow clothes were now orange and red. His white skirt was now dotted with large dark red blood spots.
"My son, you are killing me."
Since Song Guanzhou was gone, Lotus was carried back without breathing, and Mrs. Mei wished she could die too.
He came here just to burn incense for no reason, but something happened to the most precious person in the mansion.
Isn’t it fatal?
