She dragged the stunned Qin'er back into the room, cowered and stood behind the door with a sharp knife in hand. www.biquge.info She listened quietly to the sound of the door and the thunderous heartbeat in her chest, and from time to time her eyes drifted to the faint candle flame in the room that had disappeared and disappeared in the perilous night. The sparse light seemed to indicate that Chu Yunxi's life might be wiped out at any time, and it would fall into mud.

Shi Jiaheng sat back at the head of the bed, moving the thin quilt down little by little, and when the wound on her chest was completely revealed, he stopped suddenly, fished out the white silk from the copper basin, wrung it out, and gently wiped it around the wound until the red blood gradually faded, revealing white skin.

No matter how careful he was to inevitably touch the bare temperature under the quilt, he blushed and felt as if he was in a hot spring, steaming.

Continuous scrubbing blew the water in the copper basin red. His movements were gentle, the warm water on the white silk filling her wound like a tidal wave, warm and painful, and she frowned lightly in the dark.

He replaced the wet white silk in his hand with a sharp blade, and she groaned the moment the tip of the knife plunged into the wound. As the tip of the knife deepened, blood trickled out, covering the skin on his chest again, staining his fingers red.

She writhed her body wider, and small moans turned into loud screams of pain.

The facial features on Shi Jiaheng's face twisted together in pain, and he used a knife to peel off the flesh stuck to the arrow, while wiping the blood that kept gushing out with a white silk. The arrow wound on his arm kept sending pain to him all the time, and the pain in his heart and body were twisted together, like the two blades of a pair of scissors cutting all the way from his fingertips.

There were no barbs on the arrows, and the arrows were not poisoned, which was already a blessing.

He shook the shaft slightly, and it loosened considerably. Shi Jiaheng took out the sharp knife and put it in the basin, pressed it around the wound on her chest with one hand, and grabbed the middle of the arrow shaft with the other hand and pulled it upward. Chu Yunxi screamed hoarsely, opened his eyes abruptly and closed them quickly.

It was as if a hellish mansha bead exploded on her chest. The bloody scene at that moment made Shi Jiaheng feel in a momentary trance, and the crying and shouting outside the door made him feel frightened, and he asked hoarsely and repeatedly: "Is Childe dead?" He couldn't reply when she beat the door like a drum, he just went on with his work, washing her wounds with water and white wine, and then wrapping gauze around her chest.

He hugged her half-naked in his arms, the first admiration for her bare skin had completely disappeared, his hands with gauze on her back and chest, the cold touch on her skin frightened him, he didn't even dare to test her snort with his hands. It's just self-anesthetizing and thinking she's still alive.

He laid her flat and wrapped her neck in the quilt. There was still a hint of sorrow between her eyes and brows, as if the pain had pierced her bones and penetrated deep into her soul. He struggled to get up, and after a moment of dizziness, he moved a little top-heavy.

When he opened the door, he stretched out his hand to the crying and collapsed to the ground, trying to pull her up, and whispered comforting words to her, as if to comfort her and himself.

He grabbed his right hand with one hand and grabbed his left arm with the other to stand up. Driven by the pain, he instinctively broke free of his arm, took a step back, and shielded the wound with his right hand.

Blood spilled out of his wound, and Yu Yu exclaimed, "Shi Gongzi, you are also injured." ”

Her reminder made his wound even more painful. Shi Jiaheng had a pale face, and his eyes were slightly scattered. He nodded and asked in a dumb voice, "Has anyone been here?" ”

Tears hung on her eyelashes in the ground like a curtain of water, making her look at Shi Jiaheng in front of her with some ghosting, and she said in a whisper: "Let's go, I heard a voice through the door." I heard them come back after they had gone far away. ”

After speaking, she cried and asked, "What about Childe, is he okay?" ”

Shi Jiaheng silently ripped off the black cloth on his arm, noncommittal. She ran to the bed, hiding her face and weeping.

It was probably the cry of the Xuan Xuan that disturbed Chu Yunxi, who couldn't live in peace. In her sleep, she sighed and coughed.

Bo was shocked to the throat, and when she heard her voice, she knew that she was still alive, and she cried louder and louder. Shi Jiaheng was first delighted, then shocked, he stepped in front of her in two steps, pulled the quilt up, covered her smooth neck, and pressed the arm that she wanted to raise under the quilt.

He comforted her a few more words, seeing that she was sitting on the edge of the bed and refused to leave, he was afraid that she would disturb Chu Yunxi's rest, and second, he was afraid that she would see Chu Yunxi's naked body and learn her woman's identity. Leaning on the excuse of being injured, he said: "Miss Xuan, don't cry first, you see, can you help me pull out the broken arrow on my arm, this wound will festering if it is not cleaned up." “

He raised his arm in response and took a look, the black arrow was deeply inserted, the wound was red and swollen, the appearance was terrifying, and blood was flowing everywhere. She twitched as if she were scared, holding back the uncomfortable feeling of vomiting.

The two went to sit at the opposite table, and Xuan Xuan was a very kind woman, and she didn't even dare to look at the chickens and ducks on weekdays. This was the first time she had faced such a bloody scene of injury, and it was inevitable that she would be in a mess, either by mistakenly using the knife into gauze, or by making the intensity so light and heavy. Although Shi Jiaheng kept comforting and encouraging her, she still couldn't help but shake her hands, pulling out his wounds and scraping them to the ground.

Shi Jiaheng's brows tightened suddenly, his lips trembled, and his right hand, which held down his left arm, gradually sank.

Her hands grew weaker with fear and nervousness, and she couldn't pull out the broken arrow after several attempts, and blood splattered everywhere. Her tears of frustration dripped into his wounds, as if they had been burned by fire. He jerked her hands away, grabbed the shaft of the arrow and lifted it up hard. A scorching stream of blood spewed onto her face, just as it was to adorn her pale face with two pools of gorgeous rouge. Her cheeks are like the face of a ravaged Hua Dan, which is both exaggerated and absurd and poignant.

The frightened and overly frightened Xuan was no longer able to complete the rest of the work, so Shi Jiaheng, who was extremely self-disciplined, had to independently complete a series of tasks such as cleaning and bandaging in severe pain with one hand. Although he drew his sword and washed his wounds for himself without changing his face, he was quite cruel in his eyes. She trembled and couldn't bear to look at it anymore, but turned to look at Chu Yunxi on the bed.

Chu Yunxi on the bed groaned lowly, and Ju Yu stood up.

Shi Jiaheng bit the gauze on his arm tightly, exhaled, wiped the sweat from his head and asked, "Can Miss Yu borrow pen and ink?" ”

She came back to her senses, nodded hurriedly, and turned to fetch it.

Shi Jiaheng quickly wrote down a letter and stuffed it into the envelope, and then took off the sword and wrapped it around the outside of the envelope. He begged him to help him send him an urgent letter home to report his mother's safety. Although she wanted to guard Chu Yunxi, Shi Jiaheng was injured, and the maid Qin'er was unconscious, so she had to leave her beloved son, put on a cloak, scatter her hair, and take advantage of the dark night when the moon and stars were scarce.

She rushed to the backyard of Shifu along the route pointed out by Shi Jiaheng, and when she met the interrogating soldiers patrolling the city on the way, she repeated the response words he taught: The slave family's surname is Zhang, the family lives in the west of the city, and the right to travel at night is because the sister-in-law is about to give birth, and the family can't free up manpower. Then take out a few eggs from the bamboo basket and give them to the leading generals. Giving birth to a child is a happy event and an urgent matter, let alone day and night, the soldiers naturally did not dare to be too embarrassed, asked a few words casually, and said: "Congratulations" and let her go.

The guard guarding the door recognized that the sword spike belonged to the second son, so he led her in to see Mrs. Shi. Mrs. Shi has a gentle temperament, is not surprised by changes, and does not have the slightest aristocrat's shelf. When she heard that her son had an accident, she summoned Yu Yu and asked about the situation concisely.

As discussed in advance, Xuan Xuan avoided Chu Yunxi and did not talk about it, only saying that Shi Gongzi was injured in a vicious battle with bandits, and he was not worried about his life. Mrs. Shi hurriedly called the maid to change the things asked for in her son's letter into a larger bamboo basket and put it for her, and when she left, she thanked her for her righteous rescue, and took off the jade bracelet on her wrist and gave it to her.

Gifts don't care about being expensive, they care about being sincere. She didn't dare to accept it, but Mrs. Shi did not despise her because of her status, but was as gentle and charitable as an elder, and she was grateful to her for saving her son, which made her awe-inspiring.

Mrs. Shi wanted to take her son home for treatment, but her son didn't let her say anything in the letter, she knew that although her son was young, he was steady and old, and he must have encountered a tricky thing. Because of her unconditional trust, she rarely interferes with her husband and son. She is like a warm spring, selflessly warming this home in the years full of wind and frost.

After the Lady left. She dressed up at dawn and went to the palace to take leave for her son, and then she went to visit several nobles in the palace, and finally she went to Concubine Lin Shu's Shaohua Hall and met Lin Yueyuan. She happily expressed her love for Concubine Shu's little niece, and invited her to the house as a guest, and Concubine Shu was also very happy, thinking that this was a hint of the Shi family's goodwill.

Mrs. Shi has a cold temperament and doesn't like to be lively, and her biggest hobby is probably to teach her husband and children at home without leaving home. Her peace and simplicity made her very popular among many ladies in the palace, but she rarely walked around the palace, and today's initiative and enthusiasm for Lin Yueyuan made Concubine Lin Shufei secretly happy. In fact, since Shi Jiaheng made the first pilgrimage to the palace, she began to pay attention to him, and once said to Mrs. Shi regretfully that if she had a princess, she would definitely recruit her as a son-in-law. Even Gu Guifei, who has always been above the top, did not hesitate to express her appreciation for him in front of the saint, but it is a pity that several of her daughters have either left the cabinet or are not of the same age as him.

At that time, many courtiers miscalculated that the emperor's recruitment of Shi Jiaheng into Chang'an was a move to contain the frontier guards. But the emperor not only did not remove him, but found an idle official position to put him under house arrest. He was also allowed to participate in the martial arts, and justifiably let him enter the palace as a duty to take on the important task of defending the palace. This made everyone feel that the young general's career in the future is limitless, and perhaps he is the reserve force cultivated by the emperor for the crown prince, and is likely to play a huge role in the future political arena.

The other concubines in the palace who have daughters have not moved the Shi family's thoughts, and some people have expressed it to the emperor openly and secretly, but the emperor does not seem to have any intention of recruiting Shi Jiaheng as his son-in-law, and being the emperor's son-in-law means staying away from the political center.

Lin Yueyuan's arrival made up for Concubine Lin Shu's desire to have a son and a daughter, she regarded it as her own, and cared for her no less than Li Tan, of course, she also took on a more important task as her aunt, looking for a good family for her.

Lin Yueyuan, who has lived a good life in the palace, probably doesn't know that her marriage has already been put on the agenda, from the son of the old man of the previous dynasty to the young and promising young talent of the current dynasty, her aunt is like choosing a daughter-in-law for herself, the life in the palace is long and lonely, and organizing happy events for the juniors may dilute her a little loneliness.

So when Mrs. Shi proposed to meet Lin Yueyuan, she was overjoyed, and when Mrs. Shi further proposed to take Lin Yueyuan to the house as a guest, she was even more overjoyed, and her flower-like smile made her look a lot more lively than usual.

Concubine Lin Shufei originally thought that Shi Jiaheng's illness was just a lie made up by Mrs. Shi, and taking Lin Yueyuan to Shi's mansion as a guest was just an excuse for her to arrange for the two to meet. But to her surprise, the carriage of Shifu stopped at an intersection where no one was there before it arrived at the gate of the mansion, and a plainly dressed girl got out of the carriage and went straight to the east.

Shi Jiaheng took the bamboo basket from Yuzhen's hand, thanked her, and asked her to boil some hot water again.

Reluctantly, she touched the corner of the quilt hanging from the head of the bed, her eyes swept over Chu Yunxi's pale lips, and she pulled the hair on her forehead into a bun with a little sadness, rolled up her sleeves and exited the door.

While she was going to the kitchen, Shi Jiaheng took out two clean plain clothes that his mother had folded for him from the basket, he lifted the thin quilt, and dressed Chu Yunxi neatly as if he had completed military affairs. In order to hide from her, he also tore off a piece of gauze and wiped some blood around her neck. Only then did he dare to pull the quilt to her chest with confidence. He took off his shirt to wipe the blood on his body, changed his clothes, wrapped the two blood-stained rags and put them back in the bamboo basket.

He walked to the side of the bed and listened to Chu Yunxi's shallow breathing for a while as if listening to the beautiful sound of the piano, and then he went to the kitchen to change the light again.

She smiled at him gratefully, and ran away with her skirt like a young girl in March. He looked at her departing back, but it was as melancholy as the lonely moon on a snowy night. He knew the feeling of eagerly waiting by the side of his beloved, even if he knew that the pure emotion that Xuan Xuan was carrying at the moment was a beautiful mistake, but he still couldn't bear to destroy it, after all, the first heart in life was like a colorful flower blooming in a barren desert, it was so precious.

This night, he did not step into the house, but stood in the courtyard against the cool summer breeze, and rarely experienced the "Qihuai" of "for whom the wind and rain stand in the middle of the night".

Xuan Xuan lay at the head of the bed, gently holding Chu Yunxi's hand, and quietly looked at her face as pure as a lotus flower. During the night she was peaceful, but as dawn approached, she began to have a fever. Ju Ju was a little anxious, she was about to open the door to discuss with Shi Jiaheng about inviting a doctor, when the door suddenly opened by itself.

A woman in plain clothes who was full of energy came in, her eyes were round and shining. She walked in the door with her head held high, her expression was compelling, and her temperament was not inferior to that of a man.

When she heard the sound, she stood up and looked at the woman, both of whom were stunned.
