Chapter 120 Send Away
Even after he walked out of the palace, Zhang Quanhe still looked frightened.
He had actually made preparations before entering the palace, but he didn't expect that when the time came, he would find out that the preparations he had made in advance were completely useless.
The Emperor's thoughts were simply not something that someone like him could fathom.
The saying "serving the emperor is like serving a tiger" is no joke.
Judge Cheng looked at the adult beside him and felt very nervous.
He looks like he is extremely frightened. Should I remind him? If he doesn't relax, he might get sick.
Zhang Quanhe directly brought Cheng Yuanpan to the place where the eleven people were imprisoned, and accompanied him to carefully treat these people. The results obtained were consistent with the previous doctor's diagnosis.
These people all suffered collateral reactions due to varying degrees of severe injuries to their bodies.
It's just that we don't know yet whether this situation is temporary or permanent.
After Cheng Yuanpan came to a conclusion, he did not dare to delay and hurriedly said goodbye. He had to return to the palace to report.
Zhang Quanhe naturally knew about it, so he didn't dare to keep the person and sent him away respectfully.
Then he called Li Zhengyang again and told him about entering the palace today.
He now sincerely feels that his one brain is not enough, and he needs to grow a few more brains.
In the capital, the study of Min Zhicai, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
"Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?" Min Zhicai looked at the secret guard in front of him with a shocked expression. He still felt it was unlikely, so he couldn't help but ask again to confirm.
"Reporting to the Lord, I am sure that I am not mistaken. The entire Xiaoqing Mountain has been burned to ruins, and the fire is still burning now." The secret guard also found it incredible, so he confirmed it several times before returning to report.
As the secret guard finished his words, Min Zhicai's body seemed to be drained dry in an instant.
He fell back dejectedly, his back hitting the back of the chair heavily.
He was still muttering, "It's over, it's over. It's all over now... Third Master will definitely not let me go... I'm dead now, I'm really dead..."
The secret guard did not receive the order to stand up, so he could only kneel on one knee and wait there.
He could hear the adults mumbling, but he didn't dare to speculate. For people like them, it was enough to just follow orders, and they didn't need to think too much.
After waiting for a long time, I heard new orders from the adults.
"You go to the backyard now, pick up the young master and the young lady, and then send them to Jiangnan!" After saying this, Min Zhicai suddenly stood up, ran to the antique shelf beside him, and took down a palm-sized box from the top shelf.
He opened the box to check what was inside, then closed it again and stuffed the box into the hands of the secret guard, "Inside this box, there is the title deed of a house I bought in Jiangnan, as well as the title deeds of several shops over there, and a banknote of 10,000 taels. Take all of these. For the sake of our relationship as master and servant, you can take the young master and the young lady with you and live together in Jiangnan."
The secret guard was somewhat at a loss as to what to do with this sudden action.
He is a secret guard. Basically, once he becomes a secret guard for one day, he will be a secret guard for the rest of his life until his death.
But now the adults want to set him free? !
The next moment, Min Zhicai's voice sounded again, "I will set you free now. From now on, you will no longer be a secret guard. I have no other requests, but I only ask that you can protect the young master and the young lady so that they can live in peace in Jiangnan."
At this moment, the look in Min Zhicai's eyes towards the secret guard was something he had never seen before.
Without the previous domineering attitude, his eyes were now full of pleading.
For some unknown reason, the secret guard actually nodded and agreed.
Min Zhicai finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the secret guard agreed to his request.
This secret guard was the best and most loyal one among all the secret guards around him. If he agreed to the task, his children would be able to live safely unless anything unexpected happened to them.
"There is no time to lose. You should leave immediately. Don't bring anything with you. You can buy everything on the way. Take the young master and the young lady with you. By the way, when you arrive in Jiangnan, remember to change your name. Don't use the surname Min anymore."
"Are you taking all the young masters and young ladies away?" the secret guard asked.
In the mansion of Lord Min, there was a wife, six concubines, and some maids who had never seen their faces. Together, these women gave birth to five sons and seven daughters for him.
With so many people, the secret guard felt that he might not be able to take them away alone.
"Just take the eldest son, the third son, and the seventh daughter away. As for the others..." Min Zhicai paused for a long time, as if he had made up his mind, and then said, "As for the other sons and daughters, there is no need to take them away."
"You guys go quietly, don't alarm others. You go now, the sooner the better." After saying that, Min Zhi turned around and stopped looking at him.
"Yes, I will obey your command." The secret guard took the small box and turned to leave.
It was not until a long time later that Min Zhi turned around.
He held onto the corner of the table, supporting his body which was a little unsteady.
His eldest son, third son and youngest daughter are all legitimate children of his first wife. If their entire mansion cannot escape, he hopes that these children can survive.
At least I can pass on the incense of my lineage.
I hope the secret guards are faster, and the people from the Third Master's side are slower.
The secret guard had only been gone for half an hour when his wife, Wang, came to his study and yelled at him as soon as she entered the room, "What on earth do you want to do? How could you ask someone to take Yang'er, Chen'er, and Lan'er away?"
"Where are you taking them?! Min Zhicai! I'm telling you, get someone to send my children back to me, or I won't let it go!" Wang said, waving her hands at Min Zhicai.
I wish I could grow ten or eight arms and legs like that crab so I can scratch his face!
Min Zhicai was unable to dodge, and several bloody scratches were left on his face and neck. This pushed his patience to the limit. He pushed Wang away and picked up an inkstone on the table and threw it at Wang, cursing, "If you want them all to die, just keep shouting!"
Wang was frightened by his action. She fell silent and stood there in a daze.
