Outside the second gate of Yanyuan, Shang Zhuo and Gao Long were guarding the door like Generals Hengha.

Inside the second door is a small study.

The entire Yanyuan Yamen was under martial law again.

The salt men wore armor and carried weapons, and the evil spirit was generated by themselves.

In the entire Yanyuan Yamen, not even a bird is allowed to fly out.

There are salt merchants who send dead men to ambush the relatives of Lord Yanyuan. Such behavior is no different from treason.

Not only the Yanyuan, but Chen Rong, the censor of the Yangzhou City, has personally gone to the Yangzhou government office and the Yangzhou Military Preparation Road to convey the order of the censor of the Yanyuan to block the four gates of Yangzhou City and take action within three days.

For a time, the entire city of Yangzhou was in turmoil.

In the small study room of Yanyuan Yamen, the situation was even worse.

Jia Qiang almost knelt down, clasped her hands and smiled apologetically at Daiyu, who was crying: "Aunt Lin, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was really wrong this time, I shouldn't pretend to be dead to bluff people..."

Daiyu ignored her, just sat next to Lin Ruhai and cried endlessly, as if she would shed all the tears she had endured all winter.

Aunt Mei on the side also had a bad face and said: "When I heard that you were assassinated, your aunt and I were heartbroken, and so was Mother Wu. She didn't know anything clearly, so she just said that you were afraid of being useless. You

My aunt fainted on the spot. Fortunately, it turned out that you were the one pretending!"

Jia Qiang was speechless and extremely ashamed.

Lin Ruhai said calmly: "It's no longer a pretense. If Gao Long and Shang Zhuo hadn't been so quick to pull out the banner of the Qi family and threaten the lives of those people and their families, Qiang'er would probably not be spared today."

As soon as these words came out, Jia Qiang saw the tears that had stopped gradually falling down like broken beads on Daiyu's pale face.

Jia Qiang smiled and said: "Although it is a bit thrilling, it is not without rewards..."

Daiyu suddenly raised her eyes, her eyes full of incomprehensible expressions, she looked at Jia Qiang and asked: "Even your life is gone, what else do you want?"

Jia Qiang laughed and said: "There are still many things that are more important than life."

Hearing this, Daiyu trembled with anger and said in a trembling voice: "I would like to hear what else is more important than your life!"

Jia Qiang looked at Daiyu calmly and said softly: "Although I don't have the ambition of an aunt and father-in-law, when the old man returns to Beijing, the situation he will face is a hundred times more dangerous than today. If I don't take advantage of this period,

Today, we should seize the time to accumulate strength so that when we return to Beijing, we can do our best for our great-aunt and father-in-law. It will be even more difficult for him when he returns to Beijing and will be weak and with few helpers.

My aunt is a great husband. He is for the common people, for the common people, and for the country, the country, and the country. Why should he break his body and bones to repay the kindness of the country? I can't persuade him, and I can't persuade him.

I have always been pessimistic, thinking that the officialdom is difficult and dangerous, and if there is a time when I cannot bear to say anything, I will be able to protect Aunt Lin and my aunt by working hard now, so that my uncle-in-law will have no worries.

These things are more important than my life."

When Daiyu heard this, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She sat there in a daze, looking into Jia Qiang's eyes, feeling confused for a moment.

She didn't even know, how could such a shameless person dare to say such a thing in front of her father?

Did you bump into someone?

However, looking at his clear eyes, calm and generous appearance, and his magnanimous and selfless appearance...

Daiyu couldn't figure out for a moment whether he was too shameless or whether he was really innocent in his heart...

Fortunately, Aunt Mei sighed in time: "It's rare for you to be filial."

After Lin Ruhai thought for a moment, he said: "I know Qiang'er's thoughts, so that's fine... But, don't get involved in danger in the future. How can a rich man stand under a dangerous wall if he can't sit down in the hall?"

Jia Qiang nodded hurriedly and replied: "Uncle, don't worry, I have always cherished my life the most. Today... I was careless today."

Lin Ruhai said "Yes". He had experienced more than three or two assassinations in his life, so although he was worried, when he saw that Jia Qiang was fine, his panic disappeared.

The important thing now is to find out who is behind this.

"The Wu family...the Wu family is capable of this. Qiang'er, what do you think of this matter?"

Lin Ruhai frowned and thought for a moment before asking.

Jia Qiang said with a smile: "It's hard to say. Although the assassin reported to the Wu family, I think the Wu family's biggest concern at the moment should be to find a place to make a comeback. They should not waste their few resources to come here for me.

He let out a sigh of relief. No matter how stupid the Wu family is, they should know that if they really kill me, they will end up being executed."

"It's not the Wu family, so who do you think it will be next? Are there any clues?"

Lin Ruhai asked thoughtfully.

Jia Qiang said softly: "I came out of Qi's house and didn't stop all the way. Just because there were too many people on the main street, I made a temporary decision and found a bypass. In this case, I could still be ambushed.

Killing, this kind of energy is not something that a down-and-out Wu family can do."

As soon as these words came out, not only Lin Ruhai, but also Aunt Mei and Daiyu understood what they meant.

Aunt Mei, who had always stayed out of business, couldn't help but say: "The old man of the Qi family appreciates you so much and hopes that you will continue to cooperate with his eldest grandson Qi Yun for a long time. How could it be..."

Jia Qiang shook her head and said: "Old Master Qi is Old Master Qi, and the Qi family is the Qi family. That old fox was cruel and deposed the eldest son, 'exiled' the second son, and 'deported' the third son. Are these three people really willing? I

I don’t think so.”

Aunt Mei was puzzled: "Why did the assassin tell the Wu family..."

Jia Qiang smiled and said: "Trying to cover up the truth will reveal the truth. Of course, the assassin may not know the truth. However, if it is really the Wu family who instigated it, no matter how stupid the Wu family is, they will not let the assassin know that they are the Wu family."

Home. This group of assassins, except for those crossbowmen, are obviously not dead soldiers."

Lin Ruhai looked at Jia Qiang and couldn't help but laugh: "So, no matter who is behind you, you still think his surname is Qi?"

Jia Qiang laughed, but there was no smile in her eyes, and said: "Now I am the fattest in the Qi family. I have been hurt so much, and I have lost so much blood, and Aunt Lin has also shed so many tears. Qi Qiang has also shed so many tears."

If my family doesn’t bleed heavily this time, how can I survive?”

Daiyu said shyly and angrily: "You only care about taking advantage of others and let the real bad guys go?"

Jia Qiang chuckled and said: "The harder I push the Qi family, the less likely the Qi family will let go of the people behind it. In this way, we can get good results and clean up the mastermind behind the scenes. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"

Daiyu was dissatisfied and wanted to say something, but then she heard a voice from outside the door:

"Master, I came from the front yard to report that the carriage of the old man of the Qi family is at the door, and he wants to visit the second master Qiang."

When Jia Qiang heard this, she rolled over on the bed and pulled off her outer clothes, exposing her upper body.

However, a piece of blood-stained gauze was wrapped diagonally around the body, which looked a bit scary.

If she hadn't seen his vigorous skills, Daiyu would have shed tears again.

"Auntie, hurry up, put some turmeric water on my face..."

Aunt Mei was angry and funny. She picked up a porcelain bowl from the side. There was yellowish ginger water in it, but it had been treated and had no smell at all.

She dipped a white cotton ball in turmeric water and wiped it on Jia Qiang's cheeks. Jia Qiang's face suddenly turned ugly...

Then, under Daiyu's gaze, his eyes began to lose focus a little bit...

"Pfft!"

Daiyu was so amused by this guy, how could he be so expressive?

He is really not a good person!

"Aunt Lin, you'd better avoid it first, otherwise, if you laugh later, this drama will be in vain..."

Jia Qiang said weakly and out of breath.

Daiyu glared at him and said angrily: "Who cares about you? You asked me to laugh here, and I'm not laughing yet."

After that, he turned around and left.

Suddenly, she remembered what a certain bastard said to her before, that she liked to see her smile. Now she said that again, wouldn't it be embarrassing?

A blush appeared on her pretty face, and she gritted her teeth.

When they got outside, they saw Xiang Ling still crying at the door, and asked curiously: "You silly girl, don't you know that your father is good?"

Xiangling still cried, sobbing with red eyes, "But...but I'm still scared."

Daiyu's face changed slightly when she heard this, and she thought to herself: Who is not?

Moreover, Jia Qiang worked so hard for her and her father...

She felt deeply, but would not persuade.

Her father, a famous official of the country, was a common man in the world and worked for the welfare of the common people and the country. Why should he be persuaded by his daughter?

Although Jia Qiang kept saying that she had no ambitions, in order to help her father, how could she ever be timid and avoid risks?

These two men are both great men. It is not easy to persuade them, nor should they be persuaded.

When it comes to the day when I can no longer bear to say anything, just like what Jia Qiang said that day, it is nothing more than a family living together and a family dying together.

Thinking of this, Daiyu smiled lightly, but stopped trying to persuade the crying Xiangling. Knowing that this girl really cared about Jia Qiang, she left first.

Leaving one person who is really crying can help the bad guy inside act...

…

Shenjing City, Ningguo Mansion.

Ning'an Hall.

In the back bedroom, Jia Zhen's face was flushed, her eyes were also red, and she looked obviously very hot, but her whole body was hidden in the thick quilt, she was still shivering and shivering.
