Three days later.
Qi Yuan was found and placed in the Song Mansion together with Shen Zhixi.
Shen Zhixi's arrow did not damage his lungs.
A good chance saved another life, but Qi Yuan's injuries were much more serious than hers.
"My brother couldn't hold it any longer. The explosive was so powerful that several pieces of flesh on his body were blown off. He had to take a hard breath to bring me to a safe cave, and then he left. , saying he was going to the city to look for you. But he fainted as soon as he reached the entrance of the cave, and I dragged him from dawn to dusk before finding a village and finally finding someone to save him."
Zhao Yushu was lying in front of the bed, her face still filled with tears when she talked about what happened that day.
Shen Zhixi sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out and touching the top of her head comfortingly, but she was also injured, and the wounds hurt when she moved.
"Fortunately, you are still alive, and the injuries on your body will slowly recover. I have sent someone to ask. There is a miracle doctor in Linbei who may be able to cure your brother's face. He has treated many people whose faces were injured by bombs on the battlefield. The soldier has had his face changed, but after the treatment, his appearance will most likely change drastically. However, I heard that the miracle doctor has rejuvenated his body. According to your brother's narcissistic temperament, it is not unreasonable to replace him with the face of another handsome man. possible."
After hearing this, Zhao Yushu seemed to think of something and quickly grabbed Shen Zhixi's hand.
"Sister Shen, you must not tell my brother about refining the medicine."
When it came to refining medicine, Shen Zhixi's face hardened.
There was a change in the palace that day, and King Jing stayed in the palace to finish the work. He found the Taoist priests who were refining medicine for the emperor in the secret room behind the emperor's palace.
The Taoist priest said that the medicine to cure the disease can actually be made very quickly.
The emperor is Xie Zhang's son, and Qi Yuan is the emperor's son and a descendant of the Xie family, so he is very likely to have that disease.
Zhao Yushu knew this and the secret behind the emperor's palace.
She went to beg King Jing and learned the truth, so she begged to keep the two Taoist priests and use her own blood to refine medicine for Qi Yuan.
"This is of my own free will. I voluntarily refine the medicine for my brother. The Taoist priest said that it only takes a month or two to make the medicine. I am willing. My brother became like this in order to save me. I also want to do this for him. Brother, do something. I want him to live and live healthily. I...I will be careful, I will not take too much blood, and I will take care of myself. I just ask Sister Shen not to tell brother about this, otherwise he will definitely I won’t agree.”
Her sincere eyes moved Shen Zhixi. He sighed and nodded after a long while.
"Thank you, Sister Shen." Zhao Yushu smiled through tears.
It's just that Qi Yuan's injury was too serious, and the doctor said he might not be able to wake up within half a month.
When she left the door, she met the deputy commander of the secret guard department who came to find her.
"Master, King Hui committed suicide in prison."
"Suicide?" Shen Zhixi was surprised for a while, but quickly relieved.
A person like King Hui would not wait for the decree of punishment to detail the crimes he had committed. This would make him feel humiliated, and it would be better to die a hundred times.
But I just feel that it’s a little cheap for him, but it’s not worth it for my mother.
She has no way of knowing why her mother later cooperated with King Hui. Was it because of the incense that caused her memory to become distorted and she forgot that King Hui had abandoned her? Or was it because of something else? When a person dies, everything disappears. .
"You have nothing else to tell me?" Shen Zhixi changed the subject and became cold.
The deputy commander immediately knelt down and replied guiltily: "I know that my sins are serious. If I hadn't betrayed Commander Qi by betraying the information to King Hui, he would not have ended up like this. This subordinate... fell in love with someone. , and that person was captured by King Hui and used her life to coerce the subordinates, subordinates... That's all, the subordinates will not make excuses, the betrayal has become a fact, and my beloved woman has not survived, I have already Wuyan can no longer live in peace, and I came to the master today just to settle this matter."
He was so fast that Shen Zhixi didn't even react. He had already pulled out a dagger from nowhere and plunged it into his own throat.
She took a step back in shock and ran into the arms of the person behind her.
Looking back, it was Song Lianzhou.
When she looked back, the deputy commander who was kneeling on the ground had fallen sideways.
"Did he scare you?" Song Lianzhou picked her up and carried her away, "Don't worry, he deserves this end. I'll ask someone to drag him away later. We'd better make a good plan to return to Yan'an." State affairs.”
Shen Zhixi let him hold him, but curled his lips and asked, "Did your father really agree to go to Yanzhou with you?"
"Why am I lying to you? One month later, King Jing ascended the throne. He promised that he would issue an order for us, father and son, to lead troops to garrison in the south. We may never come back again. My sister and nephew will also go with us. "
The Song family moved to the south mainly for Song Lianzhou's sister.
Zhao Yanchen was bound to die due to cholera, and his sister, who was Zhao Yanchen's wife and had a son, should have been sentenced to death together with Zhao Yanchen. However, in the end, the Song family managed to bring trouble to the situation and saved their mother and son's lives, but they were demoted to common people.
If he stayed in Yuejing City, it would not be a good outcome for the Song family or his sister, especially since his sister might not be able to get over the rumors her whole life.
Therefore, King Jing agreed to let the Song family lead troops to garrison in southern Xinjiang.
"The only thing I'm worried about now is Xie Jingshi." Song Lianzhou paused, with regret on his face.
The Xie family was ransacked, and their crimes were too numerous to list.
The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty strongly demanded that they rebel against the entire Xie family. Not only did the Xie family confuse the royal bloodline and bring trouble to the court, but they also murdered the Queen Mother. The matter of taking blood to refine medicine was even more outrageous. The Xie family was full of men, except for Xie Mu Yun, there are almost no people who don't drink the blood of the bloodline.
The punishment for the Xie family's rebellion has been agreed upon, and everyone has been imprisoned. They are only waiting for King Jing to issue an execution order after he ascends the throne.
In serious cases, beheading, others exile.
Xie Changde has made it clear that he will make his head fall to the ground.
However, Song Lianzhou did not let her see Xie Changde.
He said it was not necessary and made him even more disgusted when he saw her. It didn't matter whose daughter she was, what mattered was whose daughter she wanted to be and who treated her well.
When it comes to whose daughter she wants to be, she inevitably feels sad.
That day, Xie Muyun was fatally wounded while trying to save Xie Jing'an, and he was already dead.
The current situation of the Xie family does not make it suitable for a large-scale funeral, so they were buried quietly yesterday.
"When you say that, I always feel that something is very wrong with Xie Jingshi."
Xie's family was ransacked, and Xie Jingshi and Xie Jing'an were temporarily taken to live in the uncle's house. They were originally going to be implicated and convicted, but Xie Muyun handed over the evidence of Xie Zhang and the emperor's crimes to King Jing, and he himself No crime was committed, and Xie Jingshi and Xie Jing'an were spared.
Xie Jing'an was quite normal. He cried bitterly all day long after losing his parents.
Only Xie Jingshi didn't burst into tears and was unusually quiet.
Song Lianzhou lowered his eyes and looked at her, his eyes moving to her gauze-wrapped chest, "You don't need to worry about these things. You just need to rest assured and heal your injuries. Don't walk around. If I don't watch you for a while, you can run away." Come here. If you come again, I will throw Qi Yuan out."
"Song Lianzhou!"
"Don't make me worry, okay?"
Shen Zhixi was about to get up, but suddenly fell into Song Lianzhou's gentle and pleading eyes.
