Chapter 223 Pretending to be unconscious
Chapter 223 Pretending to be unconscious
After watching Jia Kuizhuo bury his head deeply on the table, Yangyang also knew the effect of the medicine, and pretending to be unconscious was not a complicated thing.
When I closed my eyes, I could hear a slight fight next to my ears. After the table shook slightly, I could hear a conversation calmly again. "Young Marquis, don't blame the eldest master. It's because you broke your promise that we have to find another way."
Yuwen Bo said with contempt, "You are such a despicable person, and you still want me to cooperate?"
"What else?" Yangyang felt a cold hardness on her neck, as if a sharp dagger was pressing against her aorta. "Young Marquis, do you want me to stop the trouble now?"
"If you want to make a deal, then let's go!"
In a flash, Yangyang was laid horizontally on the horse and was jolted at a high speed. It was difficult for her to hold back from vomiting. Although she closed her eyes, Yangyang could tell from the smell that the person driving the horse was none other than Yuwen Bo.
I don’t know how long I walked, but the moment I stopped, I smelled a strange fragrance in my nose, which, together with the smell from Yuwen Bo, made me feel choked.
Yangyang felt that Yuwenbo had taken her down from her horse. On the way forward, another man's voice came, "Young Marquis, look, in the end, you still have to cooperate with me, right?"
Yuwenbo said nothing, but put Yangyang on the chair steadily. At the same time, there was a sound of light footsteps following behind him.
While he was adjusting his long sleeves, he heard a crisp slap on the face of the person behind him. The person staggered to the ground and knocked over the teacup on the table next to him.
"Xue Qingqing, you are so brave."
Xue Qingqing was frightened by the slap, her eyes watering. Helan Gai behind her helped her up lovingly and said to Yuwen Bo in a flirtatious way, "If the Crown Prince's Consort has been wronged, you might as well follow me."
Xue Qingqing pushed Helan Gai away in disgust, and covered her face with five handprints aggrievedly, "Young Marquis, I am only thinking about you, this Xue Yangyang is not trustworthy at all."
She slowly stepped forward and touched Yuwen Bo's clothes, looking obedient, "Without her, Young Master Helan can help you reach a cooperation with the Rong Kingdom, why bother!"
Yu Wenbo looked down at Xue Qingqing and said coldly, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"Young Marquis, I dare not."
"I don't dare, but you dare!" Yuwen Bo gritted his teeth and grabbed her neck with one hand. He glanced in the direction of Helan Gai and suddenly pushed Xue Qingqing into his arms. "She is useless to me, you can take her."
"Young Marquis, you have such a cruel heart."
"Young Marquis, are you serious?" Helan Gai touched Xue Qingqing's face, but was pushed away again.
However, Helan Gai was not angry. Instead, he moved his gaze from Xue Qingqing's face to Yangyang while savoring the aftertaste. "Since we are going to kill her today, why not let me have a taste of her too."
Yuwen Bo could no longer bear Helan Gai's lewd face. He drew out a soft sword from his waist and pointed it at Helan Gai. "Do you still want to make a deal? If not, I will cut your neck right now."
Seeing this, Helan Gai's men all surrounded him, and the leader Chang Saner even aimed a crossbow at Helan Gai's head.
Helan Gai looked around, put his hand on Yuwen Bo's sword, and laughed, "Young Marquis, we are friends. Why should friends use swords? It's just a joke."
"You can't make fun of her." Yu Wenbo glanced at Yangyang who was still pretending to be unconscious, "You can't touch her life either."
"Then how can we make a deal?" Helan Gai patted his forehead and said speechlessly, "When the emperor recognizes his daughter, my third brother will be the prince consort. Will there be a place for me in the Helan family? Who else will help you exchange information between the two countries like I do?"
He reminded her again, "Don't forget, without me, where would your Changguo Marquisate get so much money?"
Yuwen Bo smiled when he heard this and quickly put his sword back into the sheath. "Third Young Master is right." He looked at Yang Yang who was still in a coma and said, "But if she dies today, I won't have to escort her. If the eldest young master wants to communicate with the Great Pu Kingdom, I'm afraid he will have to ask for help from someone else."
He turned and sat on the chair, holding his forehead and closing his eyes, and said, "But if I can bring her back safely. In the name of the Third Young Master, I rescued her from the traitor Jia Kuizhuo and escorted her back to Rong State, then it would be different."
"Do you want to be a meritorious official or a traitor, Third Young Master? That's an easy choice, right?"
“Hahahahahaha!” Helan Gai was overjoyed, completely unaware that he had been drawn into a trap that had been set long ago. He said in triumph, “The young marquis is indeed very clever…”
At this time, a person behind the screen clapped his hands and shouted, "After so many years, big brother's brain is still not enough!"
Helan Qin was dressed in military uniform. The velvet coat made him look elegant and graceful. Compared with his elder brother who looked like a bandit, there was a huge difference between them.
"You?" Helan Gai stumbled back and almost fell to the ground. He looked at Helan Qin with wide eyes, then at Yuwen Bo, "You two, you two teamed up to trick me?"
"Hey! What the eldest master said is wrong. The third master is the official heir of the Helan family. Now that the third master has returned to the country, he should be in charge of the Helan family." Yuwen Bo raised his eyebrows and threw the right to speak to Helan Qin.
Helan Qin took a quick look, his heart focused on the unconscious Yangyang. He walked to Yangyang, squatted down and sniffed her breath, his eyes dark, "Brother, you'd better hope that Yangyang is okay, otherwise, you won't be able to leave this door today."
At this moment, Helan Gai calmed down and gave Chang Saner a signal in his peripheral vision.
He said with great confidence, "Don't threaten me." While he was thinking, Chang San'er drew his sword and rushed towards Helan Qin. Unfortunately, as soon as he moved, he was shot in the heart by a crossbow from the palace guard who had been replaced by Helan Qin. A streak of blood splashed on Helan Gai's face.
Helan Gai couldn't believe it in a trance. He had worked hard for so many years, it was impossible for his third brother to take it back in one day.
He laughed a few times and glanced at everyone, "Third brother, I have been in charge of the Helan family for so many years, you don't think you can take it away from me so easily, do you?"
Helan Qin carefully straightened Yangyang's body, then slowly stood up. His eyes were calm and resolute, and his voice was firm: "Brother, this was originally mine, have you forgotten?"
"Yours?" Helan Gai suddenly raised his head, a trace of anger and unwillingness flashed in his eyes, "You're talking nonsense! Everything in the Helan family is mine, all mine!" His voice was full of hysteria.
Helan Qin looked at him quietly, with no expression on his face, but an unspeakable sadness surged in his heart. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
"Brother, don't be stubborn anymore. Over the years, you have used all means to fight for the family property. How many people have you hurt? Don't you know it in your heart?"
Hearing this, Helan Gai sneered: "Humph, do you think what you said can change anything? I tell you, as long as I am here, everything in the Helan family will never belong to you!"
