Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal

The Jinwu Guards have been tracking down the whereabouts of several other assassins these days, but unfortunately there is still no result.

Shengjing City is so big, and there are people behind the assassins, so it is easy for them to hide, especially since they have not revealed their true identities.

Now even if he appears as an ordinary person, the Jinwu Guards will not be able to recognize him, so the investigation can only start with the seventh assassin.

After listening to the report from the Jinwu Guards, Emperor Wenzong sent them away and asked Li Tuquan, "How is the assassin's injury recovering?"

Although the assassin Lao Qi was tough in words, he was in poor health and almost lost his life during the interrogation. Fortunately, the imperial physician came in time to save him.

When Emperor Wenzong heard about this, he was so angry that he laughed. The assassin should have been killed with one sword, but now the imperial physician had to go to great lengths to save him.

But there is only this one survivor. If he is not rescued, there will be no one to interrogate him, and there will be no way to find out who is behind the assassin. He really cannot let himself die.

Li Tuquan knew everything. "There is no need to worry about his life. He is being interrogated."

Emperor Wenzong did not want to delay any longer. "If they cannot come up with a result within three days, they will be severely punished."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Tuquan responded and gave a wink to a young eunuch, asking him to go to the Heavenly Prison as soon as possible to pass on the order.

Emperor Wenzong was furious. "Inside and outside the palace, there are only good-for-nothings. None of them can be used at the critical moment."

People outside the palace could not find any other assassins, and people inside the palace had not yet come to any conclusion on the investigation, but the rumors outside had already spread like wildfire.

Li Tuquan quickly changed the subject, "Prince Yu still hasn't seen the palace doctor today. If this continues, his injuries will definitely worsen. What should we do?"

Emperor Wenzong's eyes darkened slightly. "Send the news to Shoukang Palace. Doesn't the Queen Mother care about the fifth child? Let's see if she is willing to leave the palace for the fifth child."

Li Tuquan reported, "Your Majesty, Concubine De had previously gone to the Queen Mother and proposed to go out of the palace together to persuade Prince Yu, but was rejected by the Queen Mother."

Emperor Wenzong snorted disdainfully, "Humph... I knew she only said she felt sorry for Old Five, but if something really happened, she would show her true colors."

Li Tuquan made excuses for the Queen Mother, "Perhaps the Queen Mother is old, and it is so troublesome to leave the palace, she really can't bear it."

Emperor Wenzong did not believe it. "There is no need to defend her. I have lived with her mother and son for decades. How can I not understand her thoughts?"

Li Tuquan responded with his head lowered and didn't dare to say anything more.

***

That afternoon.

The Duke of Fuguo and Rongqing went to the Prince of Yu's Palace.

They all knew that Chu Xuanchi was putting on an act, so they came over to cooperate with him.

Mo Zhaohua already has the confidence to help Chu Xuanchi stand up again, so why would he be afraid to seek medical treatment because of the assassin?

Wuying entered the east wing and reported, "Master, the Duke of Fuguo and the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion are here. Do you want to see them?"

Chu Xuanchi was lying on the bed. "Why are my grandfather and mother-in-law here? They should be able to guess that I'm acting, right?"

Mo Zhaohua was holding a book and reading to him. She put the book down and said, "I guess I am cooperating with my husband."

They had been to the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion many times before. Now that Chu Xuanchi was in trouble, it would be abnormal for them not to go to the mansion to check on him.

Chu Xuanchi wanted to sit up immediately, "You came just in time, giving me a way out, so this scene can end smoothly."

Mo Zhaohua reached out to help him, "Yesterday, my husband refused to see the prince, but today he is meeting his grandfather and mother. Will this cause criticism?"

Chu Xuanchi's eyes flickered, "That's right, then I won't see you again. Zhao Zhao will go and greet them. I have a better way to get out of here."

Seeing that he was confident, Mo Zhaohua did not ask, "Okay, then wait until I have entertained my grandfather and mother, and then my husband can tell me."

She brought Huaying and Zhenzhu to the main hall in the front yard. Duke Fuguo and Rongqing hurriedly greeted them. Since there were outsiders present, etiquette had to be followed.

Rong Qing looked worried, "Princess, how is the prince's injury? But he still refuses to let the palace doctor treat him?"

Mo Zhaohua pretended to be distressed and helpless, "Yes, he was already injured in many places, and now he refuses to see a doctor, his injuries are getting worse."

The Prince of Fuguo also had excellent acting skills. "How can the prince be so willful? No matter how much his self-esteem was hurt that night, he shouldn't have taken it out on himself."

Mo Zhaohua sighed, "My granddaughter also feels sorry for my husband, but my grandfather is a general himself. I believe you can understand my husband's feelings."

The Duke of Fuguo was filled with emotion. "I can understand. Please let me meet you. I can also persuade the prince to be more open-minded."

"The prince doesn't want to see anyone now, and my granddaughter doesn't dare to persuade him any more, otherwise I'm afraid that even my granddaughter won't be able to enter the East Wing."

Rong Qing saw Mo Zhaohua blinking quietly, and understood in his heart, but he was still pretending, "Is the prince so angry this time?"

Mo Zhaohua frowned, looking helpless, "Yes, please forgive me, grandfather and mother, and give the prince some time."

Rong Qing did not force it any further, "Princess, now that the prince is only willing to see you, you should persuade him more and put your health first."

Mo Zhaohua nodded, "My daughter knows that the prince's attitude has softened a bit, and he even managed to drink a few mouthfuls of porridge today."

The Duke of Fuguo also stopped when he saw that things were going well, "That's good, since the prince is unwilling to see him, the princess will go and take care of him, and we will go back first."

After seeing off Duke Fuguo and Rong Qing, Mo Zhaohua returned to the east wing, and his expression changed from gloomy to smiling.

She walked to the bedside with a smile on her face, "My dear, I am back."

Chu Xuanchi followed Zhan Yan and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Zhao Zhao. You have been acting these past few days."

Mo Zhaohua sat down on the edge of the bed, "I'm used to it, and I believe my grandfather and mother are the same."

Chu Xuanchi held her hand and said, "After what happened today, my father's suspicion of the Fuguogong Mansion will be alleviated."

Mo Zhaohua was still thinking about what happened before. "I have dealt with my affairs, but where is the staircase that my husband mentioned? When can I come down?"

Chu Xuanchi said, "Let's wait until the evening. I will pretend to be unconscious and Zhao Zhao can ask the court doctor to come. I will not be able to refuse."

Mo Zhaohua looked at his chest and said, "It is indeed a good idea. If my husband does not let the court doctor treat him, his injury will be out of control."

His wound had been cleaned and medicated that night. Although he didn't need to change the dressing every day, he still had to drink the medicine, and he was just enduring it.

Chu Xuanchi disagreed, "With Zhao Zhao here, what is there to be afraid of? Besides, when we were in southern Xinjiang, the enemy wouldn't give us time to heal our wounds."

Mo Zhaohua was heartbroken again. "Everything my husband has now was earned with his life, but he still suffers from jealousy and suspicion. It really makes me sad."

Chu Xuanchi smiled and comforted, "Don't be sad. Not everyone is like this. The assassination incident could have become so serious, and it was inevitably caused by the instigation of colleagues."

Mo Zhaohua raised her hand and covered his forehead. "That's because the lips and teeth are interdependent. If even my husband can't have a good ending, how can other soldiers be better?"

He had both external and internal injuries, and the court doctor was not allowed to continue treating him. He had a fever for the past few days, but for the sake of the show, she could only let him suffer.
