Arrow injuries are nothing, Zhou Qi is afraid that there will be more assassins.

He broke the arrow shaft and quickly pulled Xu Roujia to hide behind a tree. Then he blocked Xu Roujia with his body, and swept the surroundings with his bow and arrow in his hand.

Xu Roujia saw that the sleeves around the arrow in his left arm were dyed dark black. If he was wearing white clothes, he would probably be blood red, right?

Looking at Zhou Qi's cold and solemn face, realizing that both of them were in danger, Xu Roujia temporarily suppressed all kinds of emotions in her heart. While maintaining a posture, she tried not to cause trouble to Zhou Qi, while observing the surrounding grass and trees.

A gray figure suddenly ran out from a distance.

Zhou Qi's arrow immediately turned to the other party.

The feather arrow was about to take off his strings, and the gray figure suddenly knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly: "Prince, please spare your life, little, little, just saw a kite, he hid in the grass to hunt. Unexpectedly, he accidentally injured the prince. Little one really didn't mean it, please spare your life!"

Zhou Qi has a good memory and recognizes this person as Xie Jin's eldest follower Zheng Tai. When he thinks that the arrow that just flew out of the grass just now aims at Xu Roujia, Zhou Qi's eyes cold.

Xu Roujia was married to Xie Jin for five years in her previous life, and she was more familiar with Zheng Tai than Zhou Qi.

Seeing Zheng Tai's face clearly, Xu Roujia was shocked and unconsciously clenched the clothes behind Zhou Qi.

If it were someone else, she might believe that the arrow just now was just an accident, but Xie Jin, Zheng Tai...

Xu Roujia's hands began to tremble.

Xie Jin hated the replacement of his sweetheart's "A Tao" and hated Zhou Qi who wanted to marry A Tao. Xu Roujia knew that Xu Roujia had never thought that Xie Jin would send someone to assassinate Zhou Qi for this reason... No, Zhou Qi is the prince, and this is a yard. No matter how stupid Xie Jin is, he dare not assassinate the prince. What he wants to kill is "A Tao"!

How could there be such a vicious and selfish person? Because of the lowly identity of "A Tao", she gave birth to the same face as Princess Roujia, so Xie Jin would not allow her to reach this point?

Thinking of her previous life, she actually treated such a man as a gentleman and slept with her bed for more than five years, Xu Roujia's stomach suddenly rolled in her stomach.

She turned around in time, held the tree with one hand and covered her face with the other and started vomiting.

Zhou Qi was shocked and confirmed that Zheng Tai was the only one. He immediately turned around to take care of Xu Roujia.

Xu Roujia didn't eat much in the morning, all of them were dry retching, vomiting, and felt uncomfortable in her heart. Her eyes were sore and tears came out.

"Prince, I'm the one who has implicated you." Xu Roujia said to Zhou Qi guiltily.

Zhou Qi had known that she was extremely intelligent. At this time, she guessed Xie Jin's real target. Zhou Qi was not surprised. She just gently wiped away the tears from her face with her sleeve and said in a deep voice: "Martial wife is one, hurting you is hurting me, and there is no need to mention any implication in the future."

Xu Roujia glanced at his wounds and was about to speak when the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from a distance.

The two looked up at the same time and saw two waves of people coming here. There were five people on the left, three men and two women, and one man and one woman on the right, both of whom were famous families in the capital.

Zhou Qi helped Xu Roujia stand up, whispered to her not to be afraid, and then let go of her hand.

Zheng Tai begged for mercy even more violently, and his voice became louder and louder. Suddenly, he grabbed the feather arrow on the ground and stabbed it into his neck.

Zhou Qi reacted quickly enough, covering Xu Roujia's eyes with one hand and holding her shoulder with the other, so that she could not see the bloody and bloody scene.

The other women didn't have the treatment and screamed at the same time, attracting more people.

So, the news that the British Prince's eldest son, Zheng Tai, accidentally injured King Zhuang and committed suicide due to crimes quickly spread.

.

King Zhuang was injured, and the guards in the yard went to report to the emperor first.

Emperor Yongjia was accompanying Lu to hunt around the inner circle. When he heard that his son was injured, the imperial concubine immediately left the yard.

"I frightened my father and mother. My son only had some skin injuries, and it was not serious." The broken arrow was blocked by the left arm, and Zhou Qi saluted to the imperial concubine.

Xu Roujia stood behind him, looking at her emperor uncle with fear and grievance.

The little girl's crying eyes proved that Zhou Qi's injuries were not minor injuries.

"Show me!" Lu didn't believe it and rushed to his son quickly to check his injuries.

She was very strong and didn't care about her demeanor. Zhou Qi hid twice and was grabbed by Lu's arm and saw his injury.

Lu's eyes widened, and the next moment, tears as big as beans fell from her eyes. She said nothing, but just curled her lips and cried, feeling very distressed.

Zhou Qi looked at his father in embarrassment.

Emperor Yongjia had seen too many injuries. Although he felt sorry for his son, he acted much calmer than Lu. He frowned and asked, "Who was hurt?"

Zhou Qi looked at Zheng Tai's body not far away, covered with white cloth.

The guard who carried Zheng Tai back bent down and explained: "When he returned to the emperor, the one who accidentally injured His Highness, was Zheng Tai, the eldest son of the British Duke, who committed suicide due to his crime."

Xie Jin's Changsui?

A trace of suspicion flashed through Emperor Yongjia's eyes. Is it that coincidental?

Lu did not know the grudge between his son and Xie Jin. It was true that his son was injured, but when he heard that the other party had committed suicide in fear, Lu immediately did not want to pursue the man's fault, and he only anxiously asked the imperial physician to treat his son's wounds as soon as possible.

Before drawing the arrow, Emperor Yongjia drove both Lu and Xu Roujia out and refused to let them see it.

The two walked out of the imperial tent and ran into the British father and son who rushed over.

When they saw the Lu family, the British Duke immediately knelt down with Xie Jin and kowtowed to apologize: "There is no strict control of the subordinates of the empress, which caused the subordinates in the mansion to hurt the prince's daughter's body. I beg the empress to punish him."

Lu said irritably, "You didn't mean it, get up."

The British Duke was extremely surprised, but he didn't expect that this Tofu Xishi was so generous.

However, what he cared most was the attitude of the emperor and King Zhuang.

After apologizing again, the British Duke immediately took his son inside and apologized to Emperor Yongjia.

Xu Roujia stood on the side of Lu, staring at Xie Jin with his almond eyes.

Xie Jin noticed something and looked at her.

When he looked up, Xu Roujia saw a pair of eyes that were not timid, guilty, but only disappointment and indifference.

In a horror, Xie Jin went in.

Xu Roujia secretly clenched her hands. Even if her uncle treats this assassination as a misunderstanding, she will report to her grandmother. Xie Jin is the grandmother's family, but she is the descendant of her grandmother's only daughter, and Zhou Qi is the grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother's grandmother will give Xie Jin lightly.

It is definitely impossible to execute Xie Jin. He can be forgiven for his death. He must be punished for his life.

In the imperial tent, Zhou Qi, who had just pulled out the arrow, looked pale and blue veins appeared on his forehead.

The less he said, the more distressed Emperor Yongjia would be.

"Your Majesty, I am here to bring the dog son to the punishment." The British Duke pulled his son down and his forehead touched the truth.

Xie Jin also received the punishment sincerely.

Emperor Yongjia looked at his son.

Zhou Qi took the initiative to say, "A misunderstanding, the prince, please come up."

Zheng Tai is dead, and he has no evidence to prove that Zheng Tai was instructed by Xie Jin. Zheng Tai "death commits suicide in fear of crime" in front of so many people, which is enough to make everyone believe that this is a misunderstanding. In addition, the British Duke's Mansion is the grandmother's family and the father's mother's family. There is no sufficient evidence, so the father is not good at punishing Xie Jin severely.

Therefore, Zhou Qi personally helped the British Duke up.

Xie Jin looked at Zhou Qi's clothes and smiled unconsciously.

He knew that the matter would be left alone. If A Tao died, he might be beaten, but he would not hurt the British Duke's body.

Emperor Yongjia tacitly agreed to his son's approach.

When everyone left, Emperor Yongjia asked his son alone: ​​"Fourth brother, did Zheng Tai really hurt you by chance?"

Zhou Qi lowered his eyes and said, "Yes."

Emperor Yongjia frowned, just as he was about to doubt whether his son was too stupid or too heavy to hold back his anger, even he wanted to hide it only when he waited for his revenge in the future, his son continued: "What he really wants to hurt is A Tao, but he was blocked by his son, and he accidentally injured his son."

Emperor Yongjia smiled. This is his son, who is scheming and honest with him, his father.

As for why Xie Jin wanted to kill A Tao, Emperor Yongjia could still guess.

Sitting on the chair, Emperor Yongjia stared at his son and asked, "What are your plans for him to do this?"

A Tao might have been humble in the past, but she was the niece of Lu, the princess personally recognized by the empress dowager, and the fourth brother's fiancée, and the future prospective princess. Xie Jin dared to plot against A Tao, so she would not take their royal family seriously.

Even if his son doesn't want to care about such a person, Emperor Yongjia would not think that nothing happened.

Zhou Qi looked at his father and said truthfully: "My son wants his life."

Emperor Yongjia sighed.

Zhou Qi's eyebrows moved slightly, could it be...

"Have it done first, your grandmother is old, and I can't bear to feel sad."
