Quick Wear: The host is both a dog and ruthless

Chapter 325 A powerful official dressed as a man 1

Yuyan, who had just arrived at Nangong Chen after going through many hardships, saw an assassin had broken through Nangong Chen's protection circle and slashed towards Nangong Chen with the big knife in his hand.

Yuyan subconsciously stretched out her hand to block it, and as expected, she was stabbed and almost had her arm cut off.

The assassin realized that he had hit the wrong target and immediately raised his knife to hit again.

Fortunately, Gu Heng, who had caught up, was very strong and stabbed the assassin in the back of the chest with a big knife, killing him cleanly and neatly.

At this time, the Royal Guards rushed over to rescue the situation, quickly took control of the situation, and captured all the assassins.

However, the assassins must have received special training, and after being caught, they all committed suicide by taking poison when no one was paying attention.

Looking at the bodies of the assassins all over the ground and his injured son beside him, Emperor Qing was extremely angry and ordered the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate the matter and find out the murderer behind the assassination as soon as possible.

At this time in the side hall, the imperial physician was sitting on Yuyan's right side bandaging his arm, while Gu Heng, who was sitting on his left, was leisurely drinking tea. Nangong Chen stood in front of Yuyan with a worried look in his eyes, and asked the imperial physician questions worriedly.

"Imperial Physician, is Lord Yu's arm okay? Will it affect his writing and playing the piano? Will it leave a scar?"

The imperial physician took a look at Yuyan's wound, which was not serious, and replied respectfully.

"Don't worry, Seventh Prince. Lord Yu's injury did not damage his muscles or bones. It will not affect his daily life in the future. However, the scar is a bit deep and will indeed leave a scar. If Lord Yu minds, I have scar removal cream here."

"Okay, okay, use all the good medicines for Lord Yu. Lord Yu is a handsome young man, he cannot have any flaws, and there can be no scars on his arms." Nangong Chen waved his hand and quickly ordered,

"I will do my best."

Nangong Chen was relieved after getting the assurance from the imperial physician, and squatted in front of Yuyan to ask her.

"Ayan, I'm really grateful to you this time, otherwise I would have to lie here. Ayan, does your wound still hurt? Are you dizzy after losing so much blood? Are you hungry? I'll have someone stew some tonic for you to nourish you."

Facing Nangong Chen's series of questions, Yu Yan closed her eyes with a headache, licked her lips which were pale and dry due to excessive blood loss, and spoke softly.

"Well, Your Highness, please ask me for a bowl of soup!"

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll have someone get it right away."

When Nangong Chen saw that Yuyan wanted to drink soup, he immediately turned around and went to instruct the palace maid outside the door.

Seeing that annoying guy had left, Yu Yan looked at Gu Heng who was still sitting next to her. Seeing him sipping tea calmly, she swallowed her saliva and asked awkwardly.

"Today, your majesty and the princes were assassinated. Shouldn't Prime Minister Gu investigate the case and catch the murderer?"

Gu Heng paused while drinking tea, glanced at Yu Yan and said.

"That is the job of the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple. I don't need to worry about it. Lord Yu, don't worry about other things. It's important to rest and recover from your injuries."

After saying that, he handed the tea in his hand, which had already cooled down, to Yuyan's mouth.

Yuyan looked at the tea that was handed to her mouth with some disgust.

Gu Heng really doesn't treat himself as an outsider! She gave him the tea she drank herself. Doesn't she have mysophobia?

Gu Heng seemed to know what Yu Yan was thinking and explained calmly.

"I haven't drunk it."

Yuyan looked at him and blinked her bright big eyes somewhat awkwardly, then subconsciously drank a cup of tea from Gu Heng's hand.

After drinking it, he realized belatedly that only her right arm was injured, but her left hand was intact. Then why did she suddenly become a cripple who had to be fed water?

Gu Heng had already put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and straightened his robe, then looked at Yu Yan and said.

"The banquet is over, and I have to go back home. Lord Yu is injured and may not be able to move around easily. I just happen to be on my way, so I will give Lord Yu a ride!"

"........."

Yuyan wanted to refuse, and just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by Nangong Chen who walked into the hall again.

He frowned, feeling somewhat worried as he looked at Yuyan's pale face, but he couldn't let Yuyan stay in the palace to recuperate, so he had no choice but to say.

"Then I'll trouble you, Prime Minister Gu."

After that, he looked at Yu Yan and said earnestly, "Ayan, rest assured and recover from your injuries for the next two days. I will ask for leave for you later."

Yuyan, who was originally frowning because of the arm pain, her eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this.

Why didn’t she think of it before that she could take a leave if she was injured?

Besides, she was injured while saving the prince, so why shouldn't she be given a month's leave to recuperate?

Because of this good news, Yu Yan even forgot her original idea of ​​refusing to travel with Gu Heng, and she happily followed Gu Heng.

The two of them quickly left the palace and returned home in the same carriage.

Inside the carriage, Yuyan and Gu Heng sat next to each other. The space was small and the two of them didn't talk, so the atmosphere was very depressing.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Yuyan took the initiative to talk to Gu Heng and asked him.

"Has Prime Minister Gu ever practiced martial arts? I saw that when facing the assassin just now, Prime Minister Gu was not afraid of danger and killed the assassin with a single blow of his sword. He is truly amazing."

"I have never practiced martial arts. Although I am frail, I have served in the army for half a year, and I was the best in the six arts of a gentleman. I am capable of killing an assassin."

“…………”Suddenly I smelled a strong smell of resentment.

We couldn't continue the conversation that day.

Yuyan chuckled and decisively started pretending to sleep.

It was just 3 p.m. outside at this time. The carriage blocked out most of the noise from outside. Yuyan, who was already weak from losing too much blood, soon fell asleep after listening to the clattering sound of horse hooves.

Gu Heng had been keeping an eye on Yu Yan from the corner of his eye. Seeing that she was breathing deeply and had fallen asleep, his expression couldn't help but soften.

But when his gaze turned to Yuyan's injured arm, his eyes suddenly became extremely cold again.

"Dong, dong..."

Gu Heng knocked on the window gently twice, then carefully avoided Yuyan's wound and silently held her in his arms, wanting her to sleep more comfortably.

Chu Er, who was driving the carriage outside, heard the knocking sound and immediately reached out to grab the reins, slowing down the horse's pace, making the carriage move more slowly and steadily.

It was already 5:54 pm after sending Yuyan back home. At this moment, a letter was quietly sent out from Gu Heng's house.

This letter looks ordinary, but the information it carries may affect the fate of many people.

…………

Regarding the assassination, I thought all the assassins were dead, so it shouldn't be easy to find the murderer.

However, he did not expect that the Dali Temple was so efficient. The next day, they reported to Emperor Qing that the murderer had been found.

Although the assassins committed suicide by taking poison, the officials of Dali Temple still found some clues on their bodies.

Later, following these suspicious points, many things were discovered.
