Du Gang was stabbed several times in a row, covered in blood. In order to prevent the assassin from entering the yard, Du Gang's eyes were red with blood, and his sword was desperate, as if he was crazy. The three assassins did not expect Du Gang to be so difficult. The assassin leader said: "Don't fight him for a long time. Boss Ma will deal with him, and we will enter the yard."

The assassin named Boss Ma wielded his sword to fight Du Gang alone. Du Gang saw the other two people leaving and wanted to stop him, but was blocked by Boss Ma, so he could only fight with Boss Ma. Du Gang lost too much blood and gradually lost his hands and feet. He was killed by Boss Ma so hard that he could barely resist it. Seeing that he could not support him, several personal guards rushed over and surrounded Boss Ma.

After the other two left Du Gang, they ran towards the courtyard gate. The two assassins had just run two steps, and before they reached the courtyard gate, seven or eight iron arrows were shot at them. The two assassins were not wary of any arrows shooting. One was shot in the face, and the other was shot in the left arm and thigh.

Although Du Gang was reluctant to stay in the Marquis' Mansion, he followed the defensive envoy to encounter many dangers and knew that he was responsible. Therefore, he did not dare to be careless about the guards of the Marquis' Mansion. He arranged three groups to take turns on duty every day, each group of fifteen people, five people stood guard, and ten people patrol the yard from time to time. If there were no thieves as internal responses, it would be difficult for the assassins to come to Fu Ying's main courtyard without being discovered. Wang Sanlang took advantage of the patrol guards passing by and let the four assassins dressed up as servants to approach Fu Ying's main courtyard, but Wang Sanlang never expected that Du Gang would hide in the bushes for a secret meeting.

Late at night, Du Gang's shouting was particularly far away. The first person to hear the call for help was to patrol the ten personal guards near the main courtyard. According to the wartime duty requirements of the Black Eagle Army, each of them carried a knife and a bow. After hearing the call for help, they ran and took down the bow and arrow. When they arrived at the main courtyard, they happened to see two assassins rushing towards the gate of the main courtyard. They did not stop, but shot arrows while running, and three of the ten arrows shot the assassins. Launching arrows during running is a subject that the Black Eagle Army strictly trained. If they did not meet certain requirements, they could not enter the lion camp. Therefore, the personal guards all had great archery skills and the first wave of attacks achieved results.

After the two assassins were injured, their steps were slowed down and surrounded by the guards who rushed up. The guards all went to the battlefield, and they used fierce swords without any false moves. The fight was extremely short. In a blink of an eye, the two assassins who were shot in the arrow were in different heads. The assassin Ma, who fought with Du Gang, did not escape the slash of the guards. Boss Ma was also a desperate person, extremely fierce. When he was seriously injured, he even cut two guards. Finally, Ma Laosan was chopped into pieces by the furious guards. Only the assassin who was first cut over by Du Gang was first cut on the back, and then the blade slid down the back to his head, opening a big hole. Although the assassin was seriously injured, he saved his life instead.

After Du Gang was rescued by his personal guards, he was concerned about the safety of Xiao Lianzi and Fu Ying, so he forced himself to come to the yard gate. As soon as he entered the yard gate, he fell to the ground. Xiao Lianzi saw Du Gang fall to the ground and was unconscious, but gritted his teeth, his face was covered in blood, and his face was ferocious. Xiao Lianzi hugged Du Gang and cried, "Wake up, wake up, don't scare me."

The personal guards entered Fu Ying's main courtyard one after another. Zhou Jicai, the deputy team leader, came to see Du Gang's wound, then touched his pulse, and turned to Fu Ying and said, "Captain Du was seriously injured, but he did not hurt the vital points, and his life should be unhindered."

Fu Ying said: "Go and invite Doctor Liu to use the best medicine for Team Du."

Two guards hugged Du Gang from Xiao Lianzi's arms and walked towards the yard of the guard's residence. Xiao Lianzi just stood up, but his feet became weak and his butt sat on the ground again.

Fu Ying asked Zhou Jicai: "How many assassins, have they caught them?"

"Not counting Wang Sanlang, there are four assassins, three of them have been killed, and the other one is seriously injured and not dead."

"The Du team was injured, and now the Zhou team is responsible for the defense of the Hou Mansion. You first check Wang Sanlang's room to see if there are any clues. In addition, the seriously injured assassin must be treated and taken care of carefully, so that he cannot escape or commit suicide. Qiu Niangzi and Chun Niangzi should also send a few more personal guards, so that such a thing cannot happen again."

After all the matters were arranged, all the personal guards took the order and left.

Fu Ying watched everyone walk through the yard, her nervous heart relaxed and felt a little uncomfortable in her abdomen. She must have used too much force when she pulled the bow, so she said, "Xiao Lianzi, help me in." After shouting twice, Xiao Lianzi did not respond. Another maid next to her said, "I didn't see Xiao Lianzi, let me help my wife."

Fu Ying sat back in the room for a while, and then she felt more comfortable after drinking a glass of water. Fu Ying asked the maid standing beside her and said, "The little Lianzi people have arrived there. They were all here just now, why did they disappear in a blink of an eye?"

The maid hesitated for a moment and said, "It seems like she has gone out with the personal guards."

Xiao Lianzi has been acting strange recently. Fu Ying has seen it in her eyes for a long time. She didn't say anything again, saying, "You go and rest. I'll call you if you have something to do."

The next morning, Xiao Lianzi came to comb Fu Ying's hair with red and swollen eyes. After washing, Xiao Lianzi looked at Fu Ying nervously, but Fu Ying looked as usual, and said in her heart: "Luckily, my wife didn't notice it, otherwise I would be miserable this time."

Xiao Lianzi was secretly glading, but Fu Ying said quietly: "Xiao Lianzi comes here and tell me what happened last night?"

Although Xiao Lianzi has followed Fu Ying since she was a child, and the two are like sisters, they are different from their superiority and inferiority, and they involve men and women. Therefore, Xiao Lianzi was very nervous and said, "I, I was yesterday." When she said this, she didn't know where to start, blushed and looked down at her toes.

Fu Ying said: "When the assassin arrived, why were you outside the wall?"

Xiao Lianzi was stunned for a moment, knowing that if she didn't explain her relationship with Du Gang clearly, she would have no way to explain why she was outside the wall in the middle of the night. Xiao Lianzi weighed the pros and cons, and finally made up her mind and told her the tray of her relationship with Du Gang.

After hearing Xiao Lianzi say that, Fu Ying was almost the same as what she expected. Seeing Xiao Lianzi looking at herself nervously, she smiled and said, "Xiao Lianzi turns 18 in September, and it's time to talk about marriage. This young man Du Guzheng is good. If it weren't for him, would it be dangerous tonight?"

When Xiao Lianzi heard Fu Ying talk about her marriage and Du Gang, she felt embarrassed and wanted to listen to Fu Ying continue.

Fu Ying continued: "After I got married to the Hou family, I told the defensive envoy about you. He mentioned Du Gang and Chen Meng to me at that time, saying that both of them are good. Since you and Guest Du are interested, I will take the initiative to help you. I wonder if you are willing?"

Xiao Lianzi was surprised and delighted, and shyly said softly: "I do."

Fu Ying said slowly: "But there is another problem."

When Xiao Lianzi heard this, she grabbed her heart again and looked at Fu Ying with a longing.

Seeing that Xiao Lianzi was extremely nervous, Fu Ying didn't continue and said, "I'm so thirsty, pour me a glass of water."

Fu Ying drank a sip of water very comfortably and said, "Du Gang followed the defensive commander and general, it is not difficult to get the rank of the lieutenant and general. You are now a maid, and it is not right for you."

When Xiao Lianzi heard this, her face turned pale and tears rolled in her eyes.

Fu Ying handed Xiao Lianzi a handkerchief and said, "Don't cry, who told you to follow me since childhood? Oh, your business is mine. I have already told the defense envoy about this matter. When the defense envoy comes back, I will sign a document for you and then go to Zhengzhou Prefecture to stamp an official seal. After the completion of the work, you will become a good citizen and no longer be a maid. At that time, if the matchmaker Du is married, you can marry out in a grand manner. This will not be a waste of our sisters!"

Xiao Lianzi's tears fell in a string, and she knelt down and kowtowed to Fu Ying a few times, then jumped up, hugged Fu Ying, and said, "Good sister, my soul is scared by you."

Fu Ying said: "You are now in Cao's camp and your heart is in Han. I won't leave you here anymore. Go and see Counselor Du."

Xiao Lianzi went out happily. Fu Ying saw that Xiao Lianzi was happy and her mood improved. Fu Ying came to Qiuju's yard. The two were talking about yesterday. Xu Qing hurried over and said to Fu Ying: "The person from Daming Mansion brought a letter and said something urgent."

Fu Ying took the letter and opened it. It was her father's handwriting. The letter was very short, only a few words. After reading the letter, Fu Ying's face turned pale. She calmed down and said to Xu Qing: "Prepare the vehicle quickly, I'm going to Daliang."
