Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

Chapter 91 How could he be assassinated?

Song Jinyue was thinking about Xiang Shu from Dingzhou. Several days had passed, but there was no letter from Dingzhou. Even cousin Qiuyun went to Dingzhou in person, counting the days.

arrive.

Right now, there are no clues or whereabouts of the person who wanted to murder my aunt.

Song Jinyue wished she could go to Dingzhou herself.

But at the end of the year, there are still a few important things that have not been completed.

The first one is the birthday of the Queen Mother, and the other one is the scientific examination.

Song Jinyue suddenly thought of Mr. Qin and hoped that he would be on the list this year so that the lives of the Qin family brothers and sisters would be easier.

Early the next morning, it is said that the legitimate daughter does not need to greet her aunt.

Since Aunt Tian was a bride, Song Jinyue simply had nothing to do, so she went to take a look.

Today, Aunt Tian specially wore a bright red skirt with a colorful phoenix embroidered with gold thread. Her hair was combed into a woman's bun with a set of gold silk hair and face, and her face was full of shyness.

The skin can be broken by blowing, and it looks as tender as an egg that has broken its shell.

Song Jinxi still didn't show up. Her father took a special leave today and stayed with Aunt Tian in the mansion, an old man and a young woman. This gave Song Guogong a bit of an illusion, as if he had returned to his youthful appearance.

The horse in bright clothes is very timid.

When Song Jinyue arrived, Lord Song Guogong stroked Aunt Tian's eyebrows with his own hands. Hearing the announcement from his servants, he hurriedly dropped the indigo in his hand, cleared his throat, and said to Aunt Tian: "I will go to the study to handle official business first."

"Yes, master, go and get busy."

Aunt Tian's beautiful smile made Song Guogong feel a little excited. He raised his hand and rubbed her bun, and then left with satisfaction.

Song Jinyue bumped into her father who was walking out at the door and saluted, "Father."

"Well, Yue'er is interested. Go in, Aunt Tian is waiting for you." Song Guogong glanced at his daughter and said.

"yes."

Duke Guo of Song then raised his feet and left. Song Jinyue watched her father go away before entering the back room.

Aunt Tian specially asked her maid to prepare fine tea.

She didn't ask for help, and sat side by side with Song Jinyue.

"Second Miss, you are interested." Aunt Tian pointed out, expressing gratitude that she could come to see her today.

Song Jinyue didn't think much about it. She came to visit today, but she really had nothing to do, so she came to take a look.

After chatting for a few words, Song Jinyue excused herself to leave. She could see from Aunt Tian's tired look that she was trying to maintain her energy to chat with her, so naturally she didn't want to disturb Aunt Tian's rest.

After she left, Aunt Tian could lie down and rest.

Song Jinyue did not return to Mingzhuxuan, but took Qiuyun to go shopping on the street.

Because it is almost the end of the year, the streets are much busier than usual.

While walking along the long street, shopping at stalls one after another, Song Jinyue bought some gadgets from time to time and asked the steward to deliver them to the Duke's Mansion. Unknowingly, he arrived at the gate of the city.

These days, the city gate seems to be much more tightly guarded than in the past.

There were twice as many soldiers guarding the city as before.

This is quite different from previous years.

Song Jinyue couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart. Could something have happened?

She stared at the soldiers at the city gate, lost in thought, but she accidentally noticed the figure that was getting closer and closer to her. Qiu Yun noticed something strange, and hurriedly pulled her young lady to stand aside.

But the figure did not rush forward, but stopped when it was still a few steps away from Song Jinyue.

Song Jinyue took a closer look, and then she could vaguely tell from the unkempt figure that the person kneeling in front of her was not someone else, but Xiang Shu!

Song Jinyue's heart sank. She glanced around at her surroundings without saying anything.

Then he looked at Xiang Shu and said, "Follow me."

Xiang Shu nodded, then stood up, a few steps behind Song Jinyue, and followed her forward.

Song Jinyue did not go anywhere else, but took Xiang Shu back to his house on Xichang Street.

Qiu Yun stepped forward and knocked on the door. Xiang Wu opened the door in person. When she saw Song Jinyue coming, she hurriedly welcomed her in.

Song Jinyue and Qiu Yun stepped into the house one after another. Only then did Xiang Wu see his younger brother Xiang Shu who was following the second lady. He saw that his brother was unkempt and looked very vicissitudes of life. If not for his blood connection.

He even wanted to say, where did this beggar come from?

The bright moon is still guarding Yan'er here.

Song Jinyue took the Xiang brothers to the main room to talk, while Qiu Yun stood guard outside the door.

As soon as he entered the house, Xiang Shu knelt on the ground.

"What happened?" Song Jinyue asked urgently.

Xiang Shu raised his head, looked at Song Jinyue, and replied: "Second Miss, when I came back from Dingzhou, I was chased by someone on the road. I had no choice but to disguise myself as a beggar and go to Beijing, and successfully got rid of the assassin."

Song Jinyue frowned slightly, Xiang Shu was being hunted? Are his uncle and two cousins ​​in Dingzhou still in a good situation?

"Everything is fine in Dingzhou. I originally planned to reply to the second lady, but Mr. Ping was worried that you had no one available, so he asked me to come back and personally reply to you, telling you not to worry, he will be with you in Dingzhou

The general and the eldest son will be fine. Moreover, Mr. Xiang from Dingzhou is an official for his parents and is deeply loved by the people."

Xiang Shu answered one, five and ten.

"Who is chasing you?"

Xiang Shu shook his head, "Those are all dead soldiers, and there are no survivors left."

"However, I found that the clothes of the dead soldiers were all embroidered with a strange pattern." Xiang Shu said, taking out the pattern torn from the clothes of the dead soldiers from his sleeve and offering it in front of Song Jinyue.

Song Jinyue took the pattern from Xiang Shu's hand and saw a strange octagonal rhombus pattern embroidered with gold thread.

"Xiang Wu, go quietly and find out the origin of this thing. Xiang Shu, please rest for a few days. In a few days, you can go to Dingzhou again."

Xiang Wu took the pattern and put it away carefully, then looked at his younger brother, and then said: "Second Miss, why don't you let me go with my younger brother?"

He was worried about Xiang Shu, after all, he was being targeted. What if something happened to his brother?

Xiang Wu will never be able to forgive himself.

"Xiang Wu, don't worry, I won't let Xiang Shu make any mistakes this time." Song Jinyue promised.

She told her plan again.

Now that the people in the dark have sent a killer to kidnap and kill Xiang Shu, they are afraid of guessing what information Xiang Shu brought back to the capital. The people behind the scenes dare not touch his uncle and two cousins ​​rashly, and can only look for opportunities from Xiang Shu

,

But this also shows that the people in Dingzhou are probably in a hurry.

The matter in Dingzhou is probably imminent.

"I will ask for more manpower with my aunt. Xiang Shu, you and your people will sneak into Dingzhou quietly this time. When you contact cousin Ping, don't let others find out the clues. Tell cousin Ping that someone is assassinating you on the road. You must send Xiang Shu to Dingzhou.

Your Excellency is watching closely, I am worried that this Sir Xiang may have a problem."

Song Jinyue had a bad saying, it was this person who had testified against his uncle in his previous life, and that was why the Zhang family had no room to turn around.

Now, as long as we keep a close eye on Mr. Xiang, we are not afraid that he will not find any flaws.
