Li Zhang

Chapter 18 Accident

Li Zhang and Zhiqing carefully analyzed the action plan, because Zhiqing didn't know the situation of the hidden guards in the mansion, and always disapproved of Li Zhang's plan to rush in in the middle of the night, but told him that because Zhao Qinan killed too much There have always been assassins in the mansion, and Zhao Qinan has never let go of this.Li Zhang frowned when he heard the words, and asked subconsciously: "Then can you leave the house?"

Zhiqing nodded and told Li Zhang that she would accompany the old lady to Dongshan Baoxiang Temple to worship Buddha on the 20th of every month, but Zhao Qinan was always careful, and every time there were more than [-] officers and soldiers following him.Zhiqing frowned while talking, but Li Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard it.

"Then fifteen!"

"But so many officers and soldiers..."

"Don't worry! We still have people."

So Li Zhang left a sign of action in a secluded corner that Wu Zijun had explored in advance according to the agreement, and the date was set on July [-]th, eight days later.

After setting a date, Li Zhang was ready to find an opportunity to leave the Zhao Mansion, but delayed because of Zhiqing's reluctance.Although Zhiqing believed in Li Zhang, and believed that they would meet again soon, but after all, she was young, and she had been alone for two years after her mother passed away. Now that she suddenly met Li Zhang, she treated him like a family member. Said, but ran to see him every day looking for opportunities to apply medicine to his wounds.

Li Zhang saw that her eyes were red every time she left, and he couldn't say anything if he planned to leave. He thought about staying with her for a few more days, and it would not be too late to play by ear.Anyway, apart from accompanying the third son on the school field, almost no one cares about him the rest of the time.Unexpectedly, only three days later, Li Zhang was directly seen by Zhao Qinan due to an accident.

The third son had a visitor that day, so he let Li Zhang go back early. As soon as Li Zhang walked to a rockery outside the courtyard, he saw a flash of his clothes behind the rockery, and then stopped abruptly with a low exclamation.Li Zhang heard Zhiqing's voice, and hurriedly jumped over, only to see that Zhiqing was being pressed to the ground by a son, and half of his clothes had been ripped open.Li Zhang was suddenly furious, and he rushed forward and slashed at the back of the man's neck with his palm.Hearing the sound, the man gave way, avoided Li Zhang's palm, and then bent his elbow and slammed into Li Zhang's Yutang acupoint.Li Zhang originally wanted to knock that man out and save Zhiqing, but he didn't expect that the man in front of him was much better than the third son, so he could only fight him now.

The two didn't know each other, and they fought together in muffled voices.Of course Li Zhang didn't want to be discovered, but after the surprise of the person opposite, his eyes were full of eager greed, like a coyote seeing its prey.Li Zhang was flustered by his stare, and wanted to make a quick decision and leave as soon as possible.Li Zhang is a person who is more nervous and more focused. Because of this, he can find a blow to turn defeat into victory many times when he is at a loss.At this moment, he was concentrating on every movement of the person in front of him, and quickly noticed the habitual procrastination of the other person. He simply and neatly pointed out that he was right next to the person's fist-stretching arm, and tapped him. Jianjing acupoint on his body, he immediately took a step forward, and knocked him out with his palm.

Li Zhang leaned over and pulled up Zhiqing who was so shocked that he couldn't make a sound, and was about to leave quickly, but he saw that the rockery that was empty just now was already full of people standing up and down.When someone stepped forward, Li Zhang retreated warily to protect Zhiqing who was behind him.

Seeing that the situation was out of control, Zhiqing knew that she had dragged Li Zhang down, but she was no longer afraid, and wanted to protect Li Zhang.At this time, seeing that the eldest son had been rescued by someone, he preemptively said: "Zhiqing is someone close to the old lady, the eldest son treats Zhiqing like this, does the old lady know?"

Only then did Li Zhang realize that the man was Yushen, the eldest son of Zhao, and he was also secretly surprised.

Zhao Yushen rubbed his aching neck, looked at Li Zhang and Zhiqing coldly, and scolded: "Little whore! You have the nerve to mention the old lady! I came here to have a private meeting with my lover. I really thought that if the old lady spoiled me, I would be a young lady." ?!"

"Who has a private meeting with a lover! It was the third son who asked Zhiqing to look at his wounds!" Zhiqing was so angry that her voice trembled, but she refused to show her weakness.

Zhao Yushen looked at Li Zhang suspiciously, and then at the medicine boxes scattered on the ground beside Zhiqing.Someone confirmed Zhiqing's statement to him in a low voice. He looked at the silent Li Zhang, and his eyes became more and more playful: "The third brother's partner? Can my third brother, who is so weak that he can't stand the wind, still get hurt?" You? Hehe, hehehe! It’s really a good show, a good show!” He suddenly showed a fierce look, pinched Li Zhang’s chin, and asked fiercely: “Say! Who are you? Come to the Governor’s Mansion What are you doing?!"

Li Zhang was pinched by him and frowned slightly, shaking his head and said: "My name is Li Zhang. I came to Yunnan to find relatives, but I didn't meet him. I was exhausted and had no skills. I had no choice but to accept the third son's poster and come to the house to ask for a job to eat. .”

"Oh! Your tricks can only coax the idiot third! Do you think I will believe it?"

"That's the truth, Li Zhang dare not hide it."

"Who did you learn Kung Fu from?"

"When I was young, there was a wandering Taoist priest who, after being helped by my parents, saw that I was weak and sick, so he taught me a few exercises for fitness."

"The more you talk, the less it looks like it!" Zhao Yushen touched Li Zhang's cheek flirtatiously before letting go, and looked at Li Zhang's face full of ridicule: "You should honestly explain the purpose of coming here, otherwise this delicate skin and tender flesh will be so ugly. That would be such a pity!"

Zhiqing turned pale when she heard this, and just about to speak, she was grabbed by Li Zhang's right hand, which had been behind her back all the time, squeezed hard, and then let go.Zhiqing understood Li Zhang's meaning, and also knew that the eldest son's suspicion was far from being dispelled by the current confession.So she held back her tears, watching Li Zhang being pushed and taken away, her numb expression made people feel that she was frightened, but no one would continue to embarrass her.After all, she has been with the old lady since she was a child, and the old lady's doting on her made people regard her as a half master.Even if what the Eldest Young Master did to her today, even if the old lady made a fuss, he couldn't say what the result would be.

Zhiqing went back to Ci'an Hall in a daze, but couldn't think of a useful solution all the way, so she could only pin her hopes on the old lady.

Zhao's eldest son, Yushen, was stubborn since he was a child, but because he was the grandson of Zhao's parents, he was doted on by the old lady.When he was six years old, he fell into a coma for three days and three nights because he climbed a tree and fell from a tree. His family thought that he would not survive. Unexpectedly, with the birth of Zhiqing, he also woke up.The old lady then took Zhiqing in. Although she was still a slave, she was raised and brought up as well as a young lady.

The old lady believed in ghosts and gods, and the Taoist priests invited to approve Zhiqing's fate was extremely auspicious. She was the nobleman that the eldest son had chosen, so she protected Zhiqing even more tightly. strictly prohibited.And it was precisely because of the old lady's overprotection that aroused Zhao Yushen's rebellious psychology.As time went by, Zhao Yushen became more and more disgusted with the old things that the old lady always brought up, and even less believed that it was Zhiqing who brought her good luck.He despises Zhiqing from the bottom of his heart, and evilly wants to destroy her, and then let the nagging old woman see that there is no auspiciousness, why should he rely on Zhiqing to change his luck!

As soon as Zhiqing saw the old lady, she knelt down and cried and gave a general account of what had happened. When mentioning Li Zhang, she only said that the third son was recruited as a training partner, and because the third son was happy to accompany him, she asked herself to go over to see Li Zhang's injuries. .I never knew Li Zhang, but after being almost insulted by the eldest son, he was scolded as an adulterer and adulterer, and he no longer lived in the world without face.

The more Zhiqing spoke, the more sad she became, until she cried until her whole body trembled, her voice hoarse.

The old lady's heart ached immediately, and she hurriedly pulled Zhiqing up, while stroking and coaxing slowly, while hating people to pass on the Eldest Young Master.

Zhao Yushen was very prepared, and the old lady came over as soon as she passed the message.He didn't look at Zhiqing who was still choking with tears, and only told the old lady that he had had too many drinks in the afternoon, and that he would provoke Zhiqing when his mind was muddled, and he readily admitted his mistake to Zhiqing.But Li Zhang has a lot to say, and I'm afraid it's another hidden assassination.

The old lady's face changed when she heard about the assassination.Speaking of which, ever since Zhao Qinan quelled the Miao-Yi Rebellion, the people who came to the Zhao Manor to assassinate never stopped. The dark guards were attracted to kill the assassins.

Seeing the expression on the old lady's face, Zhiqing knew that she hated Li Zhang, so she hurriedly defended Li Zhang: "The old lady won't believe that Li Zhang is an assassin after seeing him!"

"Oh?"

"He looks exactly like the third son!"

Zhao Yushen stared at Zhiqing sinisterly, and interjected: "You really don't recognize him? But why are you so eager to excuse him? Didn't you see that he even defeated me?!"

"Zhiqing doesn't know martial arts, but seeing that you guys have practiced a lot, you still know that Li Zhang's strength moves are far inferior to Eldest Young Master!"

"But he beat me!"

"That's the eldest son's carelessness!"

"You must free him?"

"Zhiqing is grateful for Li Zhang's kindness in saving her, and everything she said is true!"

The old lady had a headache because of the confrontation between the two of them. Knowing that Zhiqing usually had a docile temperament, but when she got serious, she was extremely stubborn. She also became curious about Li Zhang for a while, so she ordered someone to bring Li Zhang here as well.

Li Zhang was dragged in by someone.After a while, he was already covered in blood and cuts and bruises all over his body.Zhiqing covered her mouth in shock, and the old lady quickly lowered her head and recited a few times.

Zhao Yushen asked Zhao Si who came along with his eyes calmly, Zhao Si shook his head slightly.Zhao Yushen gritted his teeth hard.

When Li Zhang came, he had already been woken up by the splash of water. At this time, he was thrown on the ground and struggled to sit up slowly.He raised his pale face, stared at the old lady sitting in the middle with dim eyes, tried to gather some strength, and said softly: "Li Zhang just came to answer the list in the house because he had nowhere to live. guilty?"

His voice was hoarse with pain, but there was a kind of righteous and aggressive manner.

The old lady was dumbfounded by his question, she looked carefully at Li Zhang, and saw that his features were delicate and charming, he really looked good, even more handsome than his own children, and looking at his figure, he was also slender With the appearance of a weak scholar, he believed [-]% of Zhiqing's words.She pretended to cough, and was about to say something to let him go, when she raised her eyes and saw Zhao Qinan walking in quickly, she couldn't help being surprised, looked at him and asked, "You left so early today?"

Zhao Qinan glanced at Li Zhang who was sitting on the ground, bowed to his mother, and replied: "Shen'er sent someone to tell about the assassin, and my son was worried about my mother, so I left early."

The old lady sneered when she heard the words, and said: "It's just a children's joke. Don't you want them to let you go?"

Zhao Qinan remained calm, pointed at Li Zhang and asked, "That's him?"

"That's not right! Look at that figure, it's really comparable to Heng'er." The old lady laughed.

Zhao Qinan smiled approvingly, but stared at Li Zhang carefully.Li Zhang felt terrified when he saw him, and lowered his eyes to keep calm, but Zhao Qinan said coldly, "So it's Mr. Li from the third prince's mansion! The strange way looks familiar. I don't know that Mr. Li came to the governor's mansion in disguise." What are you doing?"

Li Zhang's heart tightened when he heard this, and he raised his eyes to look at Zhao Qinan, but he still had no impression, so he just looked at him and didn't speak.

Zhao Qinan said with a smile: "Mr. Li will naturally not remember me, but I have watched Mr. Li get the prince's favor! At the banquet celebrating Concubine Mi's birthday, Mr. Li's demeanor is really unforgettable!"

Li Zhang's face turned pale again, and he pursed his lips tightly, refusing to make a sound.Hearing Zhiqing's low exclamation in his ear, his heart felt as painful as a blunt knife Ling Chi, and he didn't dare to look back at her.

The whole Ci'an hall fell silent, Zhao Qinan sat down peacefully, picked up the teacup and took a leisurely sip of tea. After waiting for a long time, Li Zhang didn't speak. Just feeling strange, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, and he was shocked. In a cold sweat.He looked back at the shocked old lady and Zhiqing, and waved Li Zhang away from Ci'an Hall.
