Giang So Uyen ran in from outside the door, nervously pulling me to check up and down. I was confused: "What are you doing?" After Giang So Uyen carefully confirmed that I was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Just now at the refugee camp, I met Ve Lang Tu." Her expression was solemn: "He must not have died that night. The exiles spontaneously protected him and escaped, but the officers and soldiers could not catch up." "He hates you. It's not safe outside. Please don't leave the office for the past few days." I heard it and was stunned. "Wei Lang Tu is not dead yet, he is still protected by the exiles? Could it be that he has joined the traitor forces?" Immediately after that, I shook my head. "I still have to treat the water, I can't help but leave the office." Only me and Tu Thanh Hoan know about being bait. If you want to be bait, of course you have to go out. Giang So Uyen observed my face and discovered that I was not joking. She could only say: "Then these few days, I will follow you and protect you." She said she can do it, wherever I go she will follow, no matter how much I chase her, she won't go. I can only wear her. In the evening, I returned from the refugee barracks to the mandarin, passed the night market and stopped. “I want to buy General Tu a love token.” I watched Giang So Uyen's whole body stiffen, slowly pointing to a jade pendant hanging on the counter of a shop. "Can you help me choose, how is this lovebird jade pendant?" “Puff…” The sharp arrow fiercely stabbed into flesh and blood. Giang So Uyen let out a low groan and staggered a few steps before standing firmly. Tu Thanh Hoan saw that I was okay, his face lightened, he gave me a look, and immediately flew to chase the shooter. I watched her leave, my anxiety rising, my waist already tightening. Giang So Uyen's back was covered in blood, but she didn't have time to breathe so she put me on the horse. “This place is dangerous, I'll take you away first.” After whispering in his ear, the horse whinnied for a long time, turned around and left the courtyard. The officers and soldiers behind had no more scruples and rushed forward, tying up all the exiles. Giang So Uyen quickly took me home. The horse stopped in front of the door, Giang So Uyen's breathing was heavy, her face was pale, her lips were purple. Is this…poisoned? My heart tensed up, I immediately helped her get off the horse, and loudly called out to the old butler who was guarding the door. "Quickly send someone to get the doctor! She's poisoned, she must be treated immediately!" The old butler replied, sent someone to call the doctor, and helped me help him into the door. Placing herself on the couch, I saw Giang So Uyen's eyes half-closed, an unnatural red streak suddenly appeared on her face, like a reflection of light, her breathing was so weak that it was almost inaudible. I thought for a moment, turned around and planned to go to the warehouse to get life-saving ginseng. But as soon as I let go, my wrist was grabbed tightly again. Giang So Uyen's palms were sweating, wet and hot, as if it could burn my hands. In her mouth, she muttered to the ground: "Tac Du, don't be afraid, I'm here." "I can't lose you again. Since I broke up with you, I realized that I love you, I can't leave you." "I promise, I will protect you from now on, you are my most important person..." I was not in the mood to listen to her nonsense, so I took advantage of her loosening her grip and withdrew her hand to get the ginseng. The doctor quickly arrived, and after examining Giang So Uyen's wound, immediately wiped away the sweat. "Master Giang was poisoned, but fortunately there wasn't much poison. You should be able to take the antidote. It's just that Master Giang has just recovered from a serious illness. His body is still weak. He must rest well in the next few days." Hearing that, the old butler breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at me. "Dude, it seems that Mr. Giang still loves you very much. Your body is not good yet, and you don't care about your life to save people." I looked down at the unconscious Giang So Uyen and did not respond. Right? Maybe she's really starting to care about me. But it's too late. Wrong time, forever meaningless. After Giang So Uyen woke up, I sent someone to take her back to Giang Palace. Just learned that Tu Thanh Hoan had captured the assassin who shot the arrow, and found out that the lair hid a lot of weapons and silver. The next day, I heard the old butler say that Giang So Uyen also went to the prison to interrogate the prisoners. Are not

In just a few days, the case of assassinating the Queen Mother has made progress. The person behind is the anti-god of the previous dynasty. They took advantage of the exiles in the capital to hide, wanting to infiltrate the Queen Mother's palace and start internal chaos. The first person to discover something unusual was Tu Thanh Hoan. Then I was unexpectedly caught, which further confirmed this result. It's just that although the civil unrest has been dealt with, the water problem is still not resolved. The Yellow River disaster was extremely serious, there were countless refugees, and the water management officials at the court were in a hurry. When the Queen Mother asked me what kind of reward I would like to ask for for my merits, I thought of those homeless immigrants there and hesitated to come up with an idea. "Queen Mother, when my father was alive he left behind many ancient books on water management. These days I have been looking through them and found that I can understand a lot, and there are also some thoughts that are not yet mature." "I wonder if I can go with the royal officials to treat the water?"
