I'm a marquis in Datang

never give up

Du Qi looked at Xu Ming's body, and continued, "Jin Wuque, report to the Chang'an County officials immediately, and hand Xu Ming over to Chang'an County Magistrate Wang Minzhi. Remember, we didn't know that the assassination was done by Dong Gong. I don’t know about Xu Ming’s background either. In short, I was only assassinated by Xu Ming and then injured.”

"Yes!"

When several people heard the words, they all agreed.

For them, Du Qi's words are the golden rule.Now that Du Qi said it, they followed Du Qi's instructions.

Du Qi asked Liu Jian to ask a doctor to bandage him, and asked Jin Wuque to report to the official.Not long after, the doctor arrived and frowned when he saw the wound on Du Qi's shoulder.

Because the wound pierced by the dagger was a little deep.

As a result, the skin is seriously injured.

Fortunately, this did not hurt the bones.He cleaned Du Qi's wound carefully, and when he finished cleaning the wound and started to apply the medicine, Wang Minzhi, the county magistrate of Chang'an, came with the yamen servant himself.

If it is a general assassination case, Wang Minzhi may not come to the scene in person.

Du Qi was different.

On the one hand, Du Qi was a figure whom Emperor Li Yuan knew and valued highly.In the old days when the restaurant No. [-] Vegetable in the World opened, Wang Minzhi ran away because of Du Qi Restaurant.

A trip to the restaurant took Yin Ashu and his son away.

On the other hand, Wang Minzhi, the magistrate of Chang'an County, was promoted by Li Shimin and belonged to the lineage of King Qin.As Du Qi was Du Ruhui's son, Wang Minzhi naturally couldn't take him lightly.

Furthermore, the current Du Qi is not a commoner, but Xuan Yilang of the seventh rank.Even if they are scattered officials, they still have official status.Wang Minzhi is the magistrate of Chang'an County, this is Jing County, and he is ranked on the top five ranks. His official position is higher than Du Qi's, but he dare not underestimate Du Qi.

Seeing Du Qi's injury, Wang Minzhi felt that the blood was still overflowing, staining the bandaged gauze red, and felt that the injury was serious.Wang Minzhi looked solemn, and asked, "Young Master Du, what's going on?"

Du Qidao: "Magistrate Wang, this person calls himself Xu Ming. He said he came to offer treasures, and he asked me to help him with his affairs. It's just that he used this reason to assassinate me as soon as he got close to me."

After a pause, Du Qi continued: "Although I tried to dodge, I couldn't dodge it, so that I was stabbed in the right shoulder by Xu Ming. Thanks to my guard, Mo Ledu, who rescued me in time, I killed Xu Ming and rescued him." It took my life. In this matter, please give me justice from County Magistrate Wang."

Wang Minzhi said sternly: "Young Master Du, rest assured, this matter will be thoroughly investigated by me, and justice will be given to Young Master Du. In short, I will continue to investigate thoroughly."

Du Qidao: "Thank you County Magistrate Wang."

Wang Minzhi inquired about some more details, then told Du Qi to pay attention to rest, waved to the yamen servant to carry Xu Ming's body, and went straight back to the county yamen.

After Wang Minzhi left, the doctor bandaged Du Qi's wound and turned around to leave.

Jin Wuque frowned, and said slowly, "My lord, did you kill yourself just to make Chang'an County Magistrate Wang Minzhi investigate this matter with all your might? It's not worth it."

"of course not!"

There was a sharp look in Du Qi's eyes, and he said: "Even if Wang Minzhi thoroughly investigated Xu Ming and found clues related to the East Palace, with Wang Minzhi's official position, it is impossible to deal with it."

"At most, Wang Minzhi reported it."

"Even though Wang Minzhi is from the lineage of the King of Qin, with his official position, especially since the King of Qin is not in Chang'an, he would not dare to make an enemy of the Eastern Palace. Therefore, the key point has to be the emperor's presence."

Du Qi said solemnly: "I was injured, and if I want to take revenge, that is through the emperor's action to avenge me. Although it is impossible to directly confront the East Palace now, it is not impossible to take revenge and deal with Li Jiancheng."

Jin Wuque secretly thought that Du Qi was a monster.

What a twelve or thirteen-year-old child thinks and thinks is really terrifying.If it were him, he would definitely not be able to do this step, and he would not dare to harm himself.But it is also Du Qi who is highly intelligent.

Absolutely, in order to make tea shops and restaurants flourish.

Especially Du Qi's ruthless determination made Jin Wuque feel chills down his spine.

A child of twelve or thirteen years old.

In order to get revenge, he grabbed the dagger and stabbed himself in the shoulder.This kind of courage is not something ordinary people can have.Because of this, Jin Wuque felt even more in awe of Du Qi.

Du Qi looked at Liu Jian and Mo Ledo, and asked: "After returning home, you can't mention the matter of my injury to my mother. Even the matter of being assassinated, I can't mention it at all, understand?"

"Yes!"

Liu Jian and Moredo answered in unison.

"Go, go home!"

Du Qi gave orders, but his shoulder was injured. Although he was wearing gauze, his right shoulder was not flexible when walking, and he couldn't even lift his right hand, so it could only hang down in front of him.

Although Du Qi said it hurt, he didn't regret it.

Today, Li Er has not ascended the throne.

His father, Du Ruhui, did not become the prime minister of a country either.If he wanted to protect himself, he could only be ruthless.Even if he is a little cruel to himself, he will not hesitate.

After Du Qi left the restaurant, he got into the carriage and brought Liu Jian and Mo Ledo back home.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, he began to rest without doing anything more.Fortunately, before Du Qi, he kept writing manuscripts and had enough manuscripts, so even if he was injured now, he didn't worry about the lack of manuscripts.

After all, he was injured and bled, and Du Qi's body was weak, so Du Qi fell asleep quickly after lying down.

...

East Palace, Prince's Palace.

Li Jiancheng's resentment towards Du Qi has already exceeded the sky, and he can't wait to get Du Qi skinned and cramp.If it weren't for Du Qi, he wouldn't have been reprimanded by Li Yuan.If it weren't for Du Qi, he wouldn't have lost Li Yuan's favor.

It is conceivable that now he is speechless in front of Li Yuan in a short period of time.

At least, we have to wait until Li Yuan's anger subsides.

Li Jiancheng had been waiting, and when it was almost noon, Wei Zheng came in a hurry.Wei Zheng entered the study and bowed respectfully to Li Jiancheng.In Li Jiancheng's eyes, there was a look of anticipation, and he couldn't wait to say: "Xuan Cheng, what's the result?"

Wei Zheng sighed, and replied: "His Royal Highness, Xu Ming went to assassinate Du Qi, but he has already failed."

"Failed?"

Li Jiancheng said with an inconceivable expression on his face, "Didn't you say that Xu Ming is a very famous assassin in Chang'an City, and he will never miss. But, unexpectedly

But it failed. "

After a pause, Li Jiancheng's face revealed a hint of worry: "Xu Ming's assassination failed. Now, is he alive or has he been killed?"

"died!"

Wei Zheng replied: "According to the news from the Chang'an County Government, Xu Ming approached Du Qi to assassinate him in the restaurant of No. [-] Dishes in the World under the guise of offering treasures. In the end, he only stabbed Du Qi in the shoulder, but Xu Ming He himself was also killed on the spot."

Li Jiancheng was relieved when he heard this.

It can be regarded as dead.
