Zhangsun Hee's heart sank, the targets of these killers were actually Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin. In just an instant, he had guessed the mastermind's motive for dealing with Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin: the Great General.
The four guards of National Duke's Mansion were all powerful, but the killers had the advantage of numbers. Furthermore, their techniques were vicious, and they were quickly forced in front of the carriage.
Chen Mufeng turned pale with fright. If sothing were to happen to Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin, forget about Qin Mian letting them off, once the news spread to the ears of the Great General of the Fringe Region, the situation would definitely beco dire.
Fortunately, both Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin were sufficiently calm and did not cry loudly. The inside of the carriage had been extrely quiet the entire ti.
Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin rubbed their fists and palms, just as they were about to attack, a familiar Spirit Qi flashed past like lightning. The two brothers looked at each other with incomparable disappointnt. Daddy is here.
"Ruiqi, Ruilin, close your eyes." Qin Mian stepped in the air, his body flashing as he landed in front of the horse carriage.
The four assassins closest to the carriage scread and collapsed on the ground. They stopped breathing as fresh red blood sprayed onto the carriage, shocking everyone who saw it.
Qin Mian nodded at Zhangsun Hee and Chen Mufeng, then continued to deal with the other white clad assassins.
These assassins all had powerful martial skills, but they were all beaten to a pulp by Qin Mian. In just a few monts, other than the two heavily injured assassins, everyone else had already died. The stench of blood filled the entire street.
"These two should be enough?" Qin Mian said to Zhangsun Hee.
Zhangsun Hee nodded and let out a long breath, "Fortunately -"
With two "pu pu" sounds, the two heavily injured white robed assassins spat out blood and lost their lives.
Qin Mian's face was extrely ugly, "Suicide by taking poison."
Zhangsun Hee frowned, he was speechless for a long ti.
"Fortunately, you were able to make it in ti. Otherwise, we would have already beco enemies."
Qin Mian explained: "On the way to Marquis Wei Yuan Palace, I noticed that soone was following us and had always been protecting Ruiqi and Ruilin in the shadows."
Zhangsun Hee and Chen Mufeng looked at each other. The person behind the white clothed killer was indeed targeting the Great General. His goal was not to kill Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin, but more likely, to suppress them and threaten the Great General.
"Madam National Duke, let's go to the palace together." Zhangsun Hee said.
Qin Mian nodded, "I'll send the child back first."
He boarded the carriage and took his two sons into his arms. "My good son, are you alright?"
In the end, both Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin shook their heads. There was no fear on their faces or in their eyes.
Qin Mian kissed the foreheads of the two little fellows.
Qin Ruiqi whispered the matter of the bracelet being exposed. One could imagine that the Emperor would definitely want this kind of treasure, but the situation at that ti wouldn't have left his life at risk.
Qin Mian set up a sound-insulating barrier and said, "It's alright. Darling son, this is not a problem for you to worry about. Two bracelets are indeed a treasure, but not even and your father. The Emperor would not have the nerve to ask two children for them. Furthermore, your father is currently the field marshal. It is too late for the Emperor to curry favor with us. "
Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin nodded in understanding, feeling relieved.
After sending the two children ho, Qin Mian took care of them and entered the palace with Zhangsun Hee and Chen Mufeng.
The emperor had already received the news and comforted Qin Mian for a while. He did not ntion anything about the bracelet, other than bestowing a few treasures to Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin, he had also sent a hundred elite soldiers to guard the National Duke's Mansion. He had also sent six powerful experts to protect Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin, and he would protect them tightly whenever Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin went out.
It was unknown whether it was due to Qin Mian's superb skills that frightened the person behind the white clothed killer, or because the Emperor Xiao Hui's actions that caused the people behind the scenes to believe that they could not find an opportunity to harm Qin Mian, Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin. After that, there were no more assassination attempts aid at Qin Mian and his son.
After approximately half a month, Qin Mian finally saw Lei Tia again in the spatial space.
Lei Tia's face was extrely ugly.
"Tia, what happened?"
Lei Tia snorted, "Chen Chuang's cri of betraying the nation is clear. His subordinates ate food with poison, and now there are over ten thousand people poisoned in the army, the situation is grim."
Qin Mian was shocked, "What poison is it?"
Lei Tia replied: "I don't know. The doctor said the skin festering after death was contagious. More than twenty people have died, and more than a hundred have been infected. The military doctors could only temporarily suppress the poison. They had no idea how to cure it. I have already sent a ssage to the capital, but it will be too late when the Emperor sends his detoxification experts. "
Qin Mian said: "I can tell that you already have a plan, what do you want to do? "Tell ."
Lei Tia caressed his face, "First, give a type of detoxification pill that can temporarily suppress the poison, and the best would be to prevent its infectivity. I'll arrange for a fake doctor to pretend that he ca up with the idea. "When the ergency report arrives at the capital, the Emperor will definitely ask for your opinion on how to cure the poison. You will have to co to the border pass in person."
Qin Mian was a little worried, "The Turow Country people will definitely take this opportunity to launch a large-scale attack, will you be able to hold on until I rush over there?"
Lei Tia nodded, "Do you not believe in your hubby's ability?"
Qin Mian's ears burned as he glared at him.
"Don't worry." Lei Tia imdiately embraced him and comforted him, "Trust ."
Qin Mian took out a bottle of pills from the pill concocting room and gave it to him, "First, use the ratio of one to one thousand to mix the Spirit Spring Water into the water, and then use the ratio of one to one thousand to dissolve the pill, allowing the infected people to drink it."
Lei Tia nodded, he did not have ti to say more, and disappeared after kissing his lips.
As Lei Tia expected, three days later, the Emperor Xiao Hui called for Qin Mian to enter the palace.
Qin Mian changed into his Imperial Orders clothes and quickly followed the attendants into the palace.
The chamberlain led him directly to the door of the royal study.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the National Duke's wife has arrived."
"Yes."
"Madam National Duke Xuan is here to see you ??"
Qin Mian walked into the imperial study. Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw other people in the imperial study, all dressed in imperial doctor's clothing.
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
"Rise."
"Thank you, your majesty."
"I'm giving this seat to Madam National Duke." The Emperor Xiao Hui was obviously not interested in pleasantries, he imdiately ordered the attendants, "Show the urgent report to Madam National Duke."
"Yes."
The ergency report was an oral report by the military doctor, written personally by Lei Tia. It described in detail the symptoms of poisoning and the various effective and ineffective treatnt thods used by the military doctor.
Qin Mian was watching very carefully, and did not notice that the imperial physician opposite him had his eyes fixed on him, his expression flickering with shock.
After Qin Mian finished reading, he hurriedly reported it back to the servant.
Only then did Emperor Xiao Hui open his mouth. "Right now, tens of thousands of soldiers at the border have been poisoned, their morale is shaken, and the situation is extrely disadvantageous to our Grand Xia. Does anyone have any ways to deal with this poison? "
All the imperial physicians lowered their heads in silence.
Emperor Xiao Hui frowned, he was dissatisfied with the na of the spot, "Imperial Physician Qin, what do you think?"
Imperial Physician Qin Qin Wencai hurriedly got up and kneeled down, then said while thinking about it, "Reporting to Your Majesty, although the symptoms of the infected have been clearly described in the ergency report, this subject had never personally witnessed it. Thus, I absolutely do not dare to speak carelessly. "A myriad of mistakes. This official's thod of detoxifying the poison will only serve as a reminder to the soldiers ??"
The rest of the imperial physicians all knelt down and nodded in agreent.
Emperor Xiao Hui let out a cold snort. Didn't he know these imperial physicians? He was just afraid of taking responsibility. Emperor Xiao Hui was filled with disappointnt as he looked at the calm Qin Mian.
"Madam National Duke is also proficient in dicine, do you have any ideas?"
Qin Mian stood up and cupped his hands, "Reporting to Your Majesty, this one has a 90% certainty of being able to cure this poison. But, just as Imperial Physician Qin had said, they had never personally seen the poison, if they were a little bit careless, they might fail. Therefore, this humble one requests your order to personally head to the borders. "
"90% sure?" Emperor Xiao Hui was overjoyed, "Alright! I will give you the title of 'Supervisor of the Second Rank', which will make it convenient for you to travel within the army. If you can save the lives of the tens of thousands of soldiers at the border, I will reward you handsoly! "
Qin Mian was secretly happy, he did not expect to be able to obtain a rank from a first rank official, which was only half a rank lower than the "Country's Great General".
"This subject obeys the decree, thank you, your majesty!"
"I will give you one day to settle your family matters. Tomorrow, in the early morning, we will set out for the west gate."
"Yes sir!"
Qin Wencai unexpectedly requested for orders, "Reporting to Your Majesty, even if National Duke's wife wants to go, I am willing to go with Your Majesty and serve Your Majesty."
Emperor Xiao Hui considered that Imperial Physician Qin was his own royal physician, so it would be good for him to boost his morale by coming to the border himself. He nodded. But, since my beloved daughter is no longer young, is her body able to handle it? "
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. This subject's health is fine."
"Since that's the case, you can go with Madam National Duke."
"Yes sir!"
The day was short, so Qin Mian left the palace quickly and went back to his residence.
Qin Wencai wanted to give chase a few tis, but he restrained his excitent and quickly returned to the residence and ordered his subordinates to pack up.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Qin Wencai's eldest son, Qin Ji, had just co back from the outside and noticed the commotion going on in the manor.
Qin Wencai was busy packing the dicine box, he did not even raise his head, "Jie'er, you're back? I, your father, am going to the border. "
Qin Feng was shocked, "Father, at this ti? Ignoring the dangers of going to the border, how can your body withstand such a long journey? "
Qin Wencai chuckled, and beca spirited, "This ti going to the border trial, your father will be going with National Duke's wife. If I am right, I will soon be able to find your little brother. "
"What?" You... You an the National Duke's wife? " Qin Ji's expression changed drastically. His right hand accidentally knocked against the teacup on the table. The teacup fell to the ground and tea splashed everywhere.
"Right." Qin Wencai said excitedly, "I can tell at a glance that he is your little brother who has been missing for many years, all I need now is evidence."
Qin Ji's entire body was suffused with a cold aura and his limbs were ice-cold. Qin Mian! Unexpectedly, his father still t him in person after he spent so much effort to separate the news about National Duke's wife. Damn it! The thought of killing Qin Mian lingered in his mind.
There were three things that Qin Mian wanted to arrange. First, send the two children to Chen Mufeng's residence and ask him to take care of them. He believed that regardless of whether it was Duke Mu Palace, Prince Ming Palace or the emperor, they would protect their two children like eyeballs. There is no need to worry about the child's safety. The second was the pharmacy and the silver building; the third was National Duke's Mansion.
Other than the two children who wanted to go with him to the Western Pass, everything else was arranged smoothly.
The next morning, Emperor Xiao Hui personally picked one hundred elite soldiers to escort Qin Mian and Qin Wencai to the west gate.
The horse carriage was a large carriage equipped with Qin Mian Family, it had an excellent shock absorption effect. In addition, Qin Mian had engraved an acceleration array formation on the horse carriage, so their ru
ing was not slower than the horse.
He ran all day. Only when it was dark did the team stop. The group of people stayed out in the outskirts of the city and lit the bonfire. They only used dry rations to serve the food.
The ambush in the forest made Qin Mian sneer silently.
A cold arrow shot out of the dense forest with a "sou" sound and headed straight for him.
Qin Wencai turned pale with fright, and subconsciously pounced, "Careful!"
A hundred elite soldiers were not for nothing. They imdiately went to search, easily taking care of the ten assassins. The leader of the guards sent a soldier back to the capital and reported the news to the Emperor Xiao Hui.
"Imperial Physician Qin, what is this?" Qin Mian was surprised by Qin Wencai's actions.
Qin Wencai and Qin Mian had been traveling together, and their feelings were similar to the fear of nearing ho. He hesitated a few tis, but was unable to voice out the doubts in his heart.
"Madam National Duke, please forgive this old man's rudeness. May I know where your father and your mother is from?"
Qin Mian shook his head, "I don't have parents."
"Is that so?" Qin Wencai was so excited that his hands were trembling, "You ?? Don't you think that your appearance is similar to this old man? "
Qin Mian was startled, he looked at Qin Wencai carefully and was shocked, the two of them looked exactly the sa. He thought back to a long ti ago when he t a person who looked similar to him in Beijing, and he had a guess.
"What do you an?"
Qin Wencai took a deep breath and said slowly, "If there is a light colored mole on the left side and behind your right shoulder, you would be my long-lost son. He is also called Qin Mian."
