The Golden Hairpin

Farewell to Zhou Ziqin, Huang Zixia and Li Shubai returned to the inn.

It was getting dark, and they were about to go back to their rooms, and they just stood in the yard and chatted briefly.

"Next, how do you plan to track it down?"

"In the lines that we sorted out, the servant woman Tang Zhuniang is dead. After the martyrdom case, we found her, and she died immediately. There must be a problem in it. We should send someone to Hanzhou immediately. Search for people who are familiar with her, etc., to see if you can find out something from her daily clues to solve the reason why the murderer killed her."

Li Shubai nodded and said: "The people who used to work in the county government are basically still there, but they are not unusual. It seems that no one can profit from your **** crime. The source of the poison and the person who poisoned it. , The scope of the investigation must be increased again, and the difficulty is not small."

Huang Zixian nodded and looked up at the dark blue night sky. The slanting moon is in the sky, the Milky Way is low, and the stars in the sky are as bright as pearls.

The late night in Chengdu Mansion was exactly the same as the night she fled.

On the day of her family's death, she was framed as a murderer and fled from Chengdu Mansion in panic. At that time, the brilliance of the sky and stars was dim. She couldn't see her way forward. She only wanted to go north, hoping to seize the slim chance in the capital to avenge her family and herself.

But in fact, at that time, she was deeply buried in despair. She deeply did not believe that she could really find someone willing to help her, and she had been lost on the gloomy mountain road, thinking that her life would be buried in the darkness.

Who knows that now, with the help of this person next to her, she can return to Chengdu again to search for the truth.

Her gaze turned to Li Shubai, looking at his silent side. Slightly drooping eyelashes cover his eyes, and the corners of his lips are always drawn with cold lines, but only Huang Zixia knows the unknown things hidden under his cold surface.

Otherwise, after she was dragged out of the carriage seat by him in embarrassment, why would he, who could expel her mercilessly, be willing to accept her exchange and take her to Shu County to pursue the truth?

He seemed to feel her gaze too, and his gaze turned slightly to look at her.

The eyes of the two met unbiasedly.

Huang Zixia saw his deep and invisible gaze, and only felt that the gaze hit the deepest part of his chest, causing the heart in his chest to beat fiercely.

"Take a rest early. The scope of our visit tomorrow may be relatively large. You should pay attention to bed and food." Li Shubai asked her softly.

"Well, so does the prince." She nodded.

When the two were about to go back to their rooms, there was a banging sound from outside. Someone patted the outside door indiscriminately. In the middle of the night like this, almost everyone in the street was alarmed.

The shop Xiao Er and Yi slept in the counter. It was just when she was sleeping sweetly and drooling. She was interrupted by an outsider so she was asleep. She brought an oil lamp and was about to go out to scold her mother. Unexpectedly, as soon as the light was shining outside, he couldn't get up anymore. He just chuckled and asked, "Guest, do you live in a store?"

The man's voice was hoarse, and he said anxiously, "My friend is injured, please open a room quickly!"

Huang Zixia heard the voice familiar, and hurried out. Li Shubai also walked out with her and said, "Why would Zhang Xingying take people to stay here in the middle of the night?"

I saw a light like a bean in the shop outside, shining on Zhang Xingying who had just entered the door. He hugged a man in tattered clothes, his expression anxious, and his face was blood-stained.

He is very tall and has such a terrifying appearance. No wonder Xiao Er didn't dare to stop him at all, so he was careful to persuade him: "This guest officer, your friend is seriously injured. I think you should go to the hospital. Go ahead."

"The medical hall...Where is the medical hall? He asked."

Before Xiao Er had time to answer, Li Shubai had already called out in a low voice: "Jing Yu."

Jiubi Tree Withered

The wounded man leaning on Zhang Xingying's body immediately trembled when he heard his voice, and his head, which had been hanging on his chest, raised with difficulty, calling him in a low voice: "Wang..."

"Yes, he is Wang Kui, did you recognize it?" Huang Zixia, who had already walked to his side, interrupted him immediately.

Under the dim light, Jing Yu's face was bloodless and his breath was dying, but his eyes were firmly fixed on Li Shubai's body, emitting a kind of light. However, he immediately knew that it was inconvenient to reveal Li Shubai's identity here, so he stopped speaking.

Li Shubai asked Zhang Xingying to help Jing Yu into his room first, and Xiao Er looked at the two men covered in blood, frowning and afraid to speak.

Huang Zixia said "I'm going to see the doctor", and borrowed a broken lantern from Xiaoer and hurried out.

She knew the inside and outside of Chengdu Mansion quite well, and at a moment she found the medical hall on the corner of the street and slapped the door vigorously.

Doctor Zhai inside was the most ardent. Someone in the middle of the night never turned away from seeing a doctor. He saw Huang Zixia saying that someone had been seriously injured, so he quickly packed the medicine box and went out with her.

When he arrived at the guesthouse, Jing Yu had already lay down, and his **** and rags were also thrown away, covered with a quilt, and his wit was dim.

After Dr. Zhai helped him cut his pulse, he shook his head and said, "This little brother has been injured for many days, and the wound has been ulcerated, but he can still support it to this day. It is already dangerous. As a result, he was injured again today, new and old. , I’m afraid it’s not easy to handle. Now I can only prescribe some medicine for him. As for whether he can be cured, it depends on whether Su Ri’s body can survive the catastrophe."

Doctor Zhai helped Jing Yu take off his clothes, sprayed the knife with strong wine, and burned it on the fire. First, he had to dig out the festering meat on his body.

Huang Zixian avoided outside, listening to Jing Yu's uncontrollable screams inside, she couldn't help but leaned against the wall and bit her lower lip hard.

Who sent that group of assassins? The person who can mobilize the ten divisions of the capital, can use Princess Qile as a weapon, and understand all the movements of Li Shubai and himself, who is it?

Before her eyes, the emperor's gentle and plump face appeared first, and then Wang Zongshi's gloomy eyes like a poisonous snake. However, there are other people hidden behind the scenes, the Queen, the Queen, Guo Shufei, Pang Xun, and the Xichuan Jiedu Envoy Fan Yingxi who is right in front of you...There are all kinds of people in the world, and the most unpredictable people. Who knows who it will be, who is in harmony. Beneath the surface, there are hidden intents to detect and kill?

The door rang softly, and Zhang Xingying also came out. He stood next to her at a loss, turned his head to look at her, and stopped talking.

Huang Zixia then said, "Yes, it's me."

"It's really you..." He muttered in a low voice, standing in front of her with a tall body, his head drooping, indescribable depression and pain.

Huang Zixia sighed and asked, "How did you meet Jing Yu?"

"I, I originally wanted to look around in Shudi to see if I could find Adi, who knew that when I was walking along the mountain road in Chengdu Mansion yesterday, suddenly someone rode straight over the mountain road. The mountain road is narrow, I I couldn't dodge for a while, and I was hit and rolled off the cliff..."

Fortunately, that section of the cliff was a slope, and Zhang Xingying hugged a small tree before barely stopping her body.

At this moment, he looked up and looked around. He was almost at the bottom of the cliff, so he climbed down and took a drink, and sat down by the water to connect his newly dislocated arm.

Suddenly a beast roar came from his ears, and Zhang Xingying looked back at the water's edge, and it turned out that a leopard pounced at him. He had just attached his right arm to dislocation, knowing he was powerless to resist, he could only stand up subconsciously to escape.

The leopard's speed was so fast that he was about to pounce on Zhang Xingying, his sharp teeth biting down hard at his throat. Just as he was about to close his eyes and wait for death, a stone suddenly hit him and knocked the leopard away.

Zhang Xingying secretly regretted that if the stone was bigger, the leopard would have his brain cracked. When he turned his head, he discovered that the stone thrower was covered in blood, leaning against the big rock by the river, and was already seriously injured. In such a situation, I can throw a stone to help him, it is already doing my best.

Zhang Xingying hurried to his side, and the two of them used the big stone as the proof, holding the stone, and constantly smashed at the leopard. His popularity was exhausted, but his head was good. Although Zhang Xingying could not use his right hand, his left hand was still strong, and there were rocks on the river beach.

The leopard was hungry before he dared to attack people. At this time, seeing the two of them join forces, knowing that he was absolutely unable to speak, after grinding his claws on the river beach, he finally dashed into the forest.

Zhang Xingying waited for the leopard to completely disappear before looking back at him: "Brother, are you okay?"

Who knew he asked: "Zhang Xingying... why are you here?"

He was immediately stunned: "Do you recognize me?"

"Nonsense... I'm Jing Yu from Prince Kui's Mansion."

"Duke Yu told me piecemeal pieces along the way... He said that after the prince was in danger, he broke through and was injured by an arrow. After finally escaping from the forest, the smell of blood attracted beasts again..." Zhang Xingying looked worriedly. Inside, he whispered, "It's not easy to be able to support it here, I hope he's okay..."

Huang Zixia knew that although they only got along for this short day and midnight, they resisted the enemy together and helped them back all the way. They were already friends in need, and the friendship was naturally different. Just like she and Li Shubai.

Zhang Xingying looked at her faintly from the corridor, and asked awkwardly: "Then, Brother Huang...Brother Yang, why are you here?"

"We were attacked on the road. In order to hide our tracks, we stayed here temporarily." Huang Zixia explained briefly.

Inside Jing Yu's voice had become softer, Huang Zixia hurriedly fetched a pot of hot water, and when the doctor came out, she took it in. Zhang Xingying took it and said, "I'll come."

He sat on the bedside and scrubbed the blood stains on Jing Yu. Seeing that his body was crisscrossed with bandages, the cloth in his hand was unable to start, so he could only barely wipe his face and neck, feeling extremely uncomfortable. .
