Qi Yunxi went into the room to check on Xu Yuanbo's injuries.
Having been injured twice in a short period of time, Xu Yuanbo's physical condition was not very good. Although the doctor had said that he was not seriously injured, his complexion was still not very good. He looked pale and a little scary. Qi Yunxi's anger melted away at this moment - never mind, she said in her heart, no matter how bastard and ignorant he was, no matter how disgusting he was, this little bit was enough to offset it all, because he had the blood of the Li family flowing in his body.
The Li clan was destroyed, all adult males were executed, and the underage ones were killed by the generals who were eager to curry favor with the Emperor Yuanfeng at that time. In the final analysis, the only bloodline left in the Li family was hers and Qi's, and there were only a handful of children born to her and Qi, and each one of them was very precious.
At least each one of them is much more precious than that lowly girl Su Yao.
She stopped scolding Xu Yuanbo, looked at him, and gently told him to have a good rest. Then she put down the tent, turned around and stared at Xu Chong gloomily: "How can you be a father!?"
Xu Chong was also in a bad mood. Seeing that she was always speaking harshly to him, his patience was running out. He raised his eyebrows coldly: "Didn't you say that everything was taken care of at the beginning? Now all these troubles are caused by you. Why are you angry with me? Is it my fault?"
It is true that he respects his wife, but that doesn't mean he has to bow down to Qi Yunxi and be a slave.
Qi Yunxi was annoyed for a moment, but Mr. Bai saw that something was wrong and coughed quickly, signaling her not to get too excited. When both of them finally calmed down, Mr. Bai said, "Now is not the time to blame each other. Complaining won't solve the problem. The most urgent task now is how to get through this difficult time."
After talking about the same old things over and over again, Xu Chong endured for a moment and then said, "It's okay. The people who went to kill that old woman are trustworthy. They dare not betray me."
Qi Yunxi's right eyelid suddenly twitched, and he turned around and asked Mr. Bai fiercely: "I told you before to send someone to take action against that woman, but you didn't do it?"
Otherwise, why would that old woman appear here? !
Mr. Bai's expression also changed slightly. He said with some color change: "No, I have already sent Ding Cheng and others to do it!"
Ding Cheng worked in the Wucheng Bingmasi and was always reliable in his work.
But Aunt Shen still stood at the gate and pulled Qi aside to say something like that...
Qi Yunxi's expression became extremely ugly, and he immediately said to Mr. Bai: "Hurry... ..."
Qi came in last, holding the medicine she had prepared for her son. Seeing that they all looked so bitter and resentful, she was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
No one had time to answer him. Xu Chong also reacted immediately and hurriedly urged Mr. Bai: "Is there a disturbance over there? Is that Ding reliable? Will he involve us?"
Mr. Bai frowned, and before he could think, Aunt Qi came in again. This time, her expression was much more serious than the previous times. As soon as she came in, she didn't care that Qi Yunxi was still beside her, and said tremblingly: "Master, something happened. People from Shuntian Prefecture came and said that they caught our servants threatening the Deng family... They intend to bully others and destroy evidence... ... They want to ask you and the eldest young master to go to Shuntian Prefecture."
What?!
Xu Chong felt a slight pain in his back and was so angry that he couldn't help but kick over the incense burner. However, the incense burner was very heavy and it hurt his foot instead. He couldn't help but get even angrier.
At this point, Qi Yunxi and Mr. Bai both knew that this matter was not simple and they were afraid that they had been fooled.
Even what happened to Xu Yuanbo today was probably a plot by someone.
But the person behind the scenes was able to know Xu Yuanbo's movements so accurately, knew Xu Yuanbo's secrets, and used them, and was able to pass the message to Qi, luring Qi here, and arranged everything just right... ...
Apart from anything else, it is certain that we doubt their backgrounds.
Aunt Shen's constant pestering was actually a test in itself.
Qi Yunxi was so restless that her fingernails had already dug into her palms. Seeing Xu Chong still in a daze, she was immediately furious and could not help but complain: "What are you still doing? Could it be that you, a third-rank minister, can't even think of a way to deal with such a small matter?!"
"What you said is so simple!" Xu Chong was also very annoyed. He felt that Qi Yunxi's words were too aggressive and merciless. He shook his sleeves in annoyance: "It's obvious that someone has set me up. No matter how I respond, it may be a trap..."
The outsiders were urging more and more urgently. In a short period of time, they sent servants to pass on messages several times. Xu Chong was irritated and uneasy, but there was nothing he could do. He had to repeat to Qi Yunxi and the others what he had thought of before.
"Although it is said that the master captured the servants to threaten the Deng family, I can also insist that it was the servants who acted on their own initiative. As you said, I am at least a third-rank minister, and they can't do anything to me. During this time, you should think of a solution quickly, or you can inform my father!"
Qi Yunxi also knew that this was the only way under the current situation, so he nodded with a serious face.
Qi was so scared that she went to pull Xu Chong with tears in her eyes.
Xu Chong patted her hand patiently to reassure her, then lifted the curtain and went inside to look at Xu Yuanbo. After watching for a while, he asked sternly, "Do you see how much trouble you have caused your family? You are such a grown-up, can't you use your brain when you do things? Now your whole family is suffering because of you! When you get to the government office later, be careful with what you say. Now that the person is dead, there is no evidence. You insist that he stabbed you first and then committed suicide out of fear of punishment. Do you hear me?"
Xu Yuanbo was not very afraid of his father, but he always knew what was right and wrong. When he heard Xu Chong's words, he nodded with a pale face.
Xu Chong glared at him with a gloomy look on his face and asked two people to come over and help him out.
Qi was so frightened that she almost lost her soul. As soon as Xu Chong and the others left, she immediately pulled Qi Yunxi's sleeve and said, "Aunt, we can't let anything happen to them! We can't let anything happen to them!
Qi Yunxi was startled by her. Seeing her so excited, his already bad mood became even worse. He shoved her away and scolded her, "You are a person who can't do anything but always makes trouble! You can't take any responsibility at all. Shut up!"
After shaking off Qi, Qi Yunxi turned around and told Mr. Bai to leave quickly: "Go back first and see what's going on!"
