Chapter 360: Driving the tiger away from the mountain

The guards of the Royal Forest Army were about to leave the house to continue the pursuit. Bai Shan, the captain of the Royal Forest Army, immediately stopped him and said, "Brothers, don't chase after the bandit. Our mission is to protect the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess and the old lady. Be careful of falling into the enemy's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain."

As soon as Bai Shan said this, the imperial guard who had already rushed out of the mansion stopped and came back.

"Brothers, immediately clean up the battlefield and increase vigilance to prevent the enemy from attacking again."

"Yes, my lord!"

Bai Shan looked at Liang Hong beside him, "Brother Liang, the battle just now must have alarmed Her Highness the Princess and the old lady. Let's go to the mansion immediately to report the situation, so as not to worry Her Highness the Princess and the old lady."

Liang Hong nodded, and then the two of them walked towards the inner courtyard of Lin Mansion.

The inner courtyard of Lin Mansion.

As soon as the fighting started outside the gate of Lin Mansion, Lu Qiuya heard the guards shouting to kill, and was escorted by Gong Xuan and a group of Royal Forest Army guards to the courtyard where Xu Jingyi lived.

"Mom, are you okay?"

Xu Jingyi smiled and said, "Silly boy, what can happen to my mother? Our Lin Mansion is guarded by so many imperial guards, and bad guys can't get in. Qiu Ya doesn't have to worry, be careful of the fetal force."

"I know, mother, my husband really got it right, and someone actually came to attack our Lin Mansion."

"Qiu Ya, Feng'er is very capable. What he said is correct. From now on, we will stay at home and not go anywhere until the day my little grandson is born."

Lu Qiuya nodded, "Mom, my husband hasn't been home for three days. I don't know when his muskets and artillery will be successfully developed."

Xu Jingyi smiled and said, "Sooner or later it will be successfully developed, and Feng'er will naturally come back by then. You can rest assured to raise your baby at home without having to worry about anything."

"Dong dong dong..."

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the hospital.

"Gong Duizheng, go take a look outside the hospital. If the two captains Bai Liang come, please invite them inside."

"Yes, Your Highness Princess!"

Gong Xuan cupped his hands, turned around and left quickly.

"Qiu Ya, you are the wife of the Jiangling Marquis Mansion now. It is up to you to decide what happens next. As a mother, you should go back to your room first."

Lu Qiuya nodded, "Mom, then you wait for me in the room, and we will sleep together tonight."

After a while, Gong Xuan led Bai Shan and Liang Hong in, "My lord, pay homage to Your Highness the Princess!"

Lu Qiuya quickly raised her hand, "You two, please excuse yourself. How is the battle situation outside?"

Bai Shan cupped his hand and said, "Go back to your highness, Princess. The enemy has been repulsed by us."

"call……"

Lu Qiuya breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally let go of her worries, "What are the casualties of the guards?"

"Back to Princess, thirty-seven people were killed and sixty-eight were injured in this battle, but the enemy also left fifty-four corpses." Liang Hong said.

"Ah! Why are so many people dead?"

Lu Qiuya, who had never seen the cruelty of the battlefield, suddenly changed her face. The people who were fine just now were dead in the blink of an eye, and there were thirty-seven of them. These people all died fighting to protect her, and she felt pity. But life.

"Your Highness, the enemy attacked in large numbers this time. There were two to three hundred people. The eighteen guards guarding the gate were outnumbered and died on the spot. The enemy invaded the Marquis Mansion and fought with us for a long time. This resulted in thirty The death of seven guards." Bai Shan explained.

"Captain Bai, have you ever found out who attacked the Hou Mansion?"

"Back to Princess, these people are wearing black clothes and holding long knives. I checked them one by one. They are all unfamiliar faces. So far, their origins are not clear, but I think these people are most likely to come from The black-clad guards of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and the prosperous Imperial City Division."

Lu Qiuya nodded, "Captain Bai, immediately send someone to inform Liu Zhangjian of the Mirror Appraisal Department. These people openly attacked the Hou Mansion and then hurriedly retreated. They must have a purpose for doing this. This must be investigated clearly."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, my subordinates have sent people to inform the Mirror Appraisal Department. Liu Zhangjian should be on his way here at this time."

Lu Qiuya nodded, and suddenly thought of something and immediately said: "Captain Bai, the funeral arrangements for the sacrificed guards must be arranged. In addition to the pension due from the court, the Hou Mansion will give each of their families an additional five hundred taels of silver subsidy. "

As soon as Lu Qiuya said these words, Bai Shan, Liang Hong, and Gong Xuan present all raised their hands, "Your Highness the Princess is kind, and we will defend the Marquis Mansion to the death and protect Your Highness the Princess."

Lu Qiuya quickly raised her hand, "You three, please forgive me. The guards sacrificed their lives to protect the Hou Mansion. This is what I should do. If their families encounter difficulties in the future, they can come to the Hou Mansion." Come to me and I will try my best to help.”

"Oh, by the way, Lieutenant Liang, take my token and immediately take the injured guards to the Medical College for treatment. Tell them to use the best medicine, and all the expenses will be recorded in the account of the Jiangling Marquis Mansion."

"Yes, Your Highness Princess!"

Liang Hong cupped his hands, turned around and left quickly...

At this moment, Liu Song hurriedly walked in from outside the courtyard, "Old slave, pay homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

"Liu Zhangjian doesn't need to be polite. If it weren't for the seriousness of the case, I wouldn't have ordered people to find you so late. In tonight's attack on the Imperial Guards guarding the Hou Mansion, thirty-seven people were killed and sixty-eight were injured. I will leave all the rest of the matter to your Mirror Appraisal Department, and I have only one request: let the enemy pay the price for this."

Liu Song cupped his hands and said, "The attack on the Jiangling Marquis Mansion was all due to the poor supervision of the Jingjian Guards, which gave the criminals an opportunity. Please rest assured, Your Highness, our Jingjian Division will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."

Lu Qiuya nodded, "Then I'll take care of Liu Zhangjian. I'll stay here tonight. You all should leave!"

"Old slave, please resign!"

"Your Majesty, please leave!"

Liu Song, Bai Shan, and Gong Xuan all bowed their hands, turned and left the small courtyard.

Such a big thing happened in the Jiangling Marquis Mansion, and Liu Song did not dare to neglect it. That night, all the Jingjian Guards were dispatched and launched a blanket search in Fengyang City. Unfortunately, so many people worked all night, but nothing was gained.

Liu Song had to report the attack on Lin Mansion to Huangfu Gongcheng. Early the next morning, he hurried into the palace and came to Wende Hall.

"Old slave pays homage to Your Majesty!"

Huangfu Gongcheng nodded, "Liu Ban is here. You came to the palace so early to see me, but there is some important news."

"Your Majesty, a group of unidentified black-clothed gangsters attacked the Jiangling Marquis Mansion last night. The Imperial Guards guarding the Lin Mansion killed 37 people and injured 68 others in a fight. However, this group of gangsters also left five people behind. Fourteen bodies.”

Upon hearing this, Huangfu Gongcheng stood up from the dragon chair, "What? Nothing happened to my Princess Qiuyue, right?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Your Highness the Princess is unharmed."

Hearing that Lu Qiuya was safe and sound, Huangfu Gongcheng breathed a sigh of relief and slowly sat on the dragon chair, "Liu Ban, what's going on with these gangsters?"

Liu Song immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, there are two to three hundred people in this group of criminals. The old and incompetent Jingjian guards have searched all night, and there are still no clues about the criminals."

"Hmph! Is there any need to investigate this? There are so many people who must have been killed by the black-clad guards of Beiyuan and the fake Imperial City Secretary. They attacked the Lin Mansion with Lin Feng in mind."

"Your Majesty, you mean that they want to transfer Lin Feng from Lijiazhuang by attacking Lin Mansion, and then assassinate Lin Feng on his way back to Fengyang City?"

Huangfu Gongcheng nodded, "Tune the tiger away from the mountain. It seems that the person who organized this attack must have read the Thirty-Six Stratagems written by Lin Feng. This person is not simple!"

"Your Majesty, Lin Feng will know about the attack on the Lin Mansion sooner or later. Why don't I go to Lijiazhuang outside the city to explain the situation to him, so as not to worry about the safety of Her Royal Highness and fall into the enemy's trap in a hurry?"

Huangfu Gongcheng nodded, "Okay, tell Lin Feng that I will ensure the safety of the Lin family and let him concentrate on his business, go ahead!"

"Old slave obeys the order! Old slave resigns!"

Liu Song cupped his hands, turned around and left Wende Hall...
