Chapter 127 Rescued
Chapter 127 Rescued
"Fan Yunfei is a narrow-minded man. I don't think he's in the mood to care about this. He lost face today because of Zhao Yurou. Although he put on a flawless front, he already holds a grudge against her in his heart. I'm afraid he won't find out about us so quickly." Du Zhijie's eyes darkened slightly. "That fake Xiao Chenyang can't be kept here either. We need to deal with him before they find out. Tonight is a good opportunity."
"Zhijie, protect yourself." Shen Wanqing looked at Du Zhijie with worried eyes, and reminded him again: "The Zi Luo people are cunning, you must complete everything before they find out."
Du Zhijie nodded solemnly, his heart sweetening as he listened to Shen Wanqing's instructions. It was just a matter of dealing with a fake Xiao Chenyang; he was confident.
When night fell, Du Zhijie took the old man and sneaked into the Xiao Mansion again.
The fake Xiao Chenyang was very alert. He hadn't slept well in the past few days, and even more so tonight. He was just lying on the bed with his clothes on. When he heard some movement, he immediately sat up and saw two tall figures appear at the door: "Who are you..."
Du Zhijie directly used all his internal energy to strike the man with a palm. The man vomited blood and fainted before he even had time to fight back. The huge internal force cracked the edge of the wooden bed, leaving the old man stunned.
"Hey, this, your internal strength is really good, you solved it so quickly!" The old man walked over and sniffed the patient's breath. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, it was okay, at least he was still holding on.
Du Zhijie didn't say anything, adhering to the principle of quick victory.
He made a lot of noise, and the people in the Xiao Mansion soon noticed him. Seeing that it was Du Zhijie, the housekeeper was stunned: "General Du, it's so late, why are you here?"
Du Zhijie told him what had happened, and the housekeeper was frightened.
He was a child of the Xiao family, and he didn't have any children. He had long considered the Xiao family his own, and his only hope in this life was to take good care of his master. During this time, he had also sensed a difference in Xiao Chen, but his appearance, voice, and gait remained unchanged. Although he felt that his master was different from before, Xiao Chenyang was not often in the house, so he was not sure and kept it to himself.
When Du Zhijie's men carried the real Xiao Chenyang back to the mansion, the housekeeper couldn't help but shed tears.
It’s not too late. At least the master is not seriously injured and those people did not succeed.
The next day, the Xiao Mansion released the news that Xiao Chenyang was ambushed by gangsters and was injured and unconscious. General Du sent people to surround the Prime Minister's Mansion and not allow anyone else to visit. The Second Prince was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. The atmosphere in the capital was a little tense for a while.
In the envoy's post station, Fan Yunfei heard the news and found that Xiao Chenyang was no longer in the secret passage. He was shocked and confused.
"What on earth is going on? Such a big person just disappeared without a sound. With so many people guarding him, could he have walked out of here on his own?" Fan Yunfei roared and kicked Princess Suyun. "If you can't even keep such a big living person under control, what's the point of keeping you here?"
Princess Suyun replied with a pained face, "It's obviously safe here, and Xiao Chenyang was poisoned by our Zi Luo Nation's secret poison. He couldn't have left on his own. He must have been rescued by Du Zhijie. Yes, it must have been him."
After the banquet ended last night, he clearly wanted to go check it out, but after being scolded by Fan Yunfei, he didn't have the heart to do so. After all, it wasn't his fault.
Now the Prime Minister's Mansion is surrounded by people from the General's Mansion, and it is unclear what is going on inside.
Princess Suyun was being strangled by Fan Yunfei. Her face flushed crimson, her eyes filled with tears. She looked truly pitiful, but Fan Yunfei showed no mercy. He smiled cruelly and said, "Now look, such a big man has disappeared without a trace. If Xiao Chenyang had really been rescued, then the matter would have been exposed, and we would have had to return to Ziluo Country as soon as possible. How much damage has your carelessness caused to my plan?"
He tore Princess Suyun's clothes with one hand, revealing a blood-red toad's blood on her arm. It was particularly conspicuous against her snow-white skin, arousing a hint of lust in his eyes. "This was applied on purpose, but it seems useless now, so why keep it? Didn't you use this trick to send her to my bed and successfully replace Princess Suqin?"
After saying that, he roughly threw Princess Suyun onto the bed, pressed her down, and bit her neck directly.
Princess Suyun screamed and cried, struggling violently: "No, don't do this to me. If I can't marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion, I can marry someone else. The ministers are not as good as him. I can marry a prince or enter the palace. Please let me go. I will be useful."
Fan Yunfei paused as he was unbuckling her belt, his head still buried under her neck, leaving a circular red mark on her soft white flesh. He then lazily stood up and examined her: "Let me think about it. You'd better be good."
After saying that, he patted her face, got up and left.
After a while, the suppressed and painful voice of the maid was heard from the next room.
Princess Suyun trembled all over and buried herself in the quilt, crying silently. She would rather marry here than return to the dirty royal family of Ziluo Kingdom.
She had to find a way.
Yes, she still holds Xiao Chenyang's antidote in her hand...
Shen Wanqing went to Xuanyuan Mansion early this morning and told Xuanyuan Qiaoer about the general situation.
Knowing that General Du had rescued the people and sent people to protect the Prime Minister's Mansion, not allowing anyone to enter, Xuanyuan Qiao'er felt relieved. But when she heard that Xiao Chenyang was still sleeping soundly, Xuanyuan Qiao'er's heart seemed to be tightened again.
She suppressed the urge to cry and ordered the servants to take out all the rare medical books in her dowry: "Fourth sister, isn't your master over there? Please help me take these books. It doesn't matter if they are useless. Just consider it a thank you for the doctor's hard work."
"Qiao'er, why don't you come with me to see Mr. Xiao." Shen Wanqing took Xuanyuan Qiao'er's arm soothingly.
Xuanyuan Qiao'er was stunned: "Is it possible? Didn't General Du order that no one is allowed to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion..."
"That's because we're worried that spies from Zi Luo Country might sneak in and do harm to Xiao Chenyang." Shen Wanqing's eyes were a little shy, and she knew that if it was her request, Du Zhijie would not refuse.
Sure enough, when the news that Xuanyuan Qiaoer was going to see Xiao Chenyang was passed to Du Zhijie, he walked out of the dark cell, temporarily handed the impostor over to his men for interrogation, and personally accompanied them there.
The old man knew about it but didn't object. He smiled and said to Xuanyuan Qiao'er, "Miss, you can try to talk to Xiao Chenyang more. Maybe it will help awaken his consciousness faster."
