Chapter Twenty-Three: The Wounded in the Night

The closest to the gate of Zuo Xiang's Mansion was the courtyard of Chu Jiangliu, so he settled Jin Xuan into this courtyard.

Chu Shaoyuan has not rested, and the three juniors in the family have not come back yet, how can he sleep peacefully. The movement in Chu Jiangliu's courtyard was naturally noticed by him very quickly.

When Chu Shaoyuan heard the sound, he saw his son holding water in and out, and Chu Mo was also busy handing things to Liu Mengyan.

And his daughter sat in front of the bed, stained with blood, holding the half broken arrow she had just pulled out in her hand and putting it aside.

Seeing this scene, Chu Shaoyuan immediately became anxious, obviously it was Liu Mengyan who brought the injured person back, and Chu Jiangliu and Chu Mo, who went out with Liu Mengyan, were safe and sound, so who was the person who was seriously injured and could let Liu Mengyan personally save people?

As soon as he saw that the person lying on the bed was Jin Wu, Chu Shaoyuan's face darkened.

Liu Mengyan can only concentrate on saving Jin Shaoyuan, where can she take care of Chu Shaoyuan. The time for them to meet Jin Fu was too late, the toxin had already spread from the arm, leaving it along the meridians to Jin Qiu's heart, she could use the silver needle to block the spread of the toxin for a while, but it was very difficult to dissolve the toxin.

"Dad-" Chu Jiangliu was startled when he saw Chu Shaoyuan walking towards the bedside, and hurriedly shouted, he was afraid that Chu Shaoyuan would not agree with Liu Mengyan to save Jin Wu. Chu Shaoyuan didn't like that their sister and brother had dealings with the surname Jin, and Chu Jiangliu also knew it, but when he saw Jin Zhuo's appearance this time, he also felt that he couldn't see death without help.

Although Chu Shaoyuan had a dark face, he didn't speak, just watched from the side, which was regarded as acquiescing to Liu Mengyan's move to save people.

"Dad, you have to go to the morning court tomorrow, go and rest early." Liu Mengyan spoke at this time, her eyes were still firmly glued to Jin Qiu, but the words were said to Chu Shaoyuan.

"Liu Mengyan, you are the daughter of the Chu family, not a doctor. Why do you want to do the doctor's business yourself, what is the benefit to you, and what is the benefit to the six princes! Chu Shaoyuan didn't open his mouth for fear of disturbing Liu Mengyan, but as soon as Liu Mengyan opened his mouth, he had something to say.

"I am not only the daughter of the Chu family, but also a doctor, and I can save the doctor of the six princes!" It is impossible for Liu Mengyan to hand over the poisoned Jin Disaster to another doctor, one is that Jin Disaster is not a person who does not care whether she lives or dies for her, and the other is that it is unknown whether Jin Disaster should be kept secret for this injury.

"You can be the chief of the criminal department, or you can save someone's life when you have to, but the sixth prince doesn't have to be saved by you, now it's too late to find a doctor or even find an imperial doctor!" Chu Shaoyuan only cares that his daughter can be well, even if Jin Wu is lying in Zuo Xiang's mansion now, but Liu Mengyan will not say anything if he doesn't save Jin Wu, because no one will believe that Liu Mengyan has the ability to save Jin Wu.

Moreover, even if Jin Disaster dies here, I am afraid that he will not be blamed by the royal family. What's more, right now, I'm afraid that someone wants Jin to die.

"Dad, you either go and rest, or if you have to stand here, you can do it." Chu Shaoyuan's position is different from hers, Liu Mengyan doesn't think Chu Shaoyuan is wrong, but she won't argue with Chu Shaoyuan at this time, since this is the case, she still simply ignores Chu Shaoyuan, and everything will wait for her to deal with Jin Shaoyuan.

After that, no matter what Chu Shaoyuan said, Liu Mengyan didn't hear it, leaving Chu Shaoyuan alone to nag beside her.

Seeing this, Chu Jiangliu and Chu Mo stepped forward several times to persuade Chu Shaoyuan to leave.

The room finally quieted down, Chu Jiangliu and Chu Mo couldn't stop their sleepiness, and they had already fallen asleep on the table.

Liu Mengyan released some of the poisonous blood to Jin Wu, and also poured a bowl of potion into Jin Wu, which made Jin Wu's situation a little better. Seeing that Jin Qiu's situation was calm, the sky gradually brightened, and after tossing all night, Liu Mengyan had no sleepiness, and Chu Jiangliu and Chu Mo were still sleeping soundly.

It was only at this time that Liu Mengyan had the heart to get up and cover a piece of clothing for her younger brother and nephew.

The first to wake up was Jin Wu, after Liu Mengyan rubbed her sore shoulders, she walked back to the bed and saw that Jin Wu had opened her eyes.

"Miss Chu, I'm sorry ......"

It's really like Jin Qiu's style, after escaping death, the first thing he said when he woke up was to apologize.

"I didn't save you just to hear you say that." Liu Mengyan raised her eyelids and replied.

When she saw Jin Wu injured, she was worried and anxious, for him to stay awake all night, who would pay for this to receive an apology.

"Thank you." A flash of panic flashed in Jin Qiu's eyes, and he changed his apology to a thank-you.

"I don't want to hear that. However, it's better than apologizing. ”

Liu Mengyan would not take the initiative to ask Jin Zhuo what happened last night, not only because she planned to listen to Chu Shaoyuan's words and not have too much to do with the people surnamed Jin, but also because she didn't want to force Jin Zhuo to tell her.

With Jin Wu's temperament, what she wants to know, Jin Wu will definitely say it in a fifteen-ten way, even if she doesn't want to say it, she will tell her. Even if Jin Disaster has changed, he is not as cowardly and timid as before, he is still the original Jin Disaster who will humbly pull her sleeve. “

If Jin Wu wanted to tell her, she would listen, and if he didn't say anything, she would act as if she didn't notice anything.

"Miss Chu, it was the second emperor brother who said that he was going to the temple to pray for his father, and asked me to walk with the fourth emperor brother and the fifth emperor brother, so I came to the outside of the palace. But ...... "Jin Qiu's choice is to tell her the truth."

"Snort - it's really a shame that the second prince can say it, the matter of going to the temple to pray for blessings has always been done by women, and the queen's aunt has not brought it up, but he is in a hurry to do it, and he has to pull a few of you, is it really that this Heavenly Holy Dynasty is already his Jin Yan's world?" Liu Mengyan was a little annoyed, Jin Yan slandered the eldest prince and the third prince in front, and it was only a long time before the idea hit the remaining three princes.

"And then, on the way, encountered an assassin attack?" Liu Mengyan motioned for Jin Yu to continue.

Jin Wei nodded, "I got separated from a few of them, and then ......"

Then what happened, Jin Chao knew, and Liu Mengyan also knew.

She also knew that the second prince, the fourth prince, and the fifth prince should have returned to the palace safe and sound at this moment, and Jin Yu was the only one who was attacked by the assassins.

Because even if they are not brilliant four princes and five princes, they also have a certain status in the palace, and they also have a certain amount of support behind them, if something happens to them, it is absolutely impossible to give up easily.

Only Jin Wu, even if he dies outside the palace alone, no one will care. Therefore, to deal with Jin Disaster, there is no need for any special means, just kill people unknowingly.

And not only Liu Mengyan understands this, but Jin Wei also understands.

Understand that you are not needed, that you can easily be erased......

"Miss Chu......" Jin Ji looked at Liu Mengyan with a bitter face, whether it was cowardly and timid, or changing himself, it was so difficult......

Liu Mengyan stretched out her hand and carefully hugged Jin Wei. Jin Yao's body was cold, and his body was too thin, so that Liu Mengyan didn't even dare to use a little more force. Twelve-year-old Jin Fu is as fragile as a wounded little animal.

When Jin Wu was hugged into Liu Mengyan's arms, he stiffened slightly, but soon his whole body weakened, and then he stretched out his hand to hug Liu Mengyan back, tightly, desperately.

"Miss Chu, Miss Chu, Miss Chu......" Jin Xuan shouted to her over and over again on Liu Mengyan's shoulder.

But after shouting so many times, Jin Wei didn't dare to shout Liu Mengyan's name, how tightly he grabbed Liu Mengyan's hand, how profound his humility was.

"Jin Wo, you can't get out anymore." Liu Mengyan stroked Jin Wei's trembling body while saying in a voice that was so calm that it was almost indifferent.

"Your royal brothers, there is not a single one who does not want to get that position. What about you? Do you want it? ”

Jin Hao grabbed Liu Mengyan's hand tighter, and spit out a word in a low voice, "Yes." ”

This moment is more than ever. There are too many things, you can only get them by sitting in that position, and there are too many things, only for the emperor, can you make your wishes come true.

"Then let's try it. You're no worse than them. When she saw Jin Ji being hurt so casually, Liu Mengyan's heart couldn't calm down.

"You're right, I'm going to try...... even if it's just an egg hitting a stone.

The old emperor fell ill too suddenly, which was a good thing for Jin Yan, who had already been well prepared, but it was fatal for Jin Yan, who had just begun to change, and he had not had time to accumulate his own power, but there was no time for him to enhance his strength.

After staying in Liu Mengyan's arms for a while, Jin Wei straightened up, broke away from Liu Mengyan's embrace, looked at Liu Mengyan's eyes, and said seriously: "Miss Chu, let's cancel the marriage contract." Although there is a holy purpose, if you go to ask the imperial uncle for help, you will definitely be able to lift it smoothly. ”

Liu Mengyan was stunned, she didn't expect Jin Hao to make such a request. She always thought that she would be the one who proposed to dissolve the marriage contract, but she didn't expect Jin Wu, who attached the most importance to this marriage contract, to propose it first.

The blank decree in her hand was genuine, as long as she wanted to, she could end the marriage contract between the two of them at any time, as Jin Wei expected, it was not so difficult to dissolve the marriage contract between the two of them.

"Why?" Liu Mengyan was not angry because Jin Yu said such a thing, she was just surprised.

"The current Miss Chu is not suitable for me." Jin Wei gradually smiled, but the smile was not happy.

"Was it appropriate before? I've never heard you say you're going to break off my engagement before, and this is the second time I've been divorced. Liu Mengyan naturally doesn't believe this kind of nonsense.

"When I step out of the gate of this Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, I will become an ambitious person, but my ability may not be able to withstand my ambition. But no matter how ugly the defeat is, at most it is death, and if I die, I will not be responsible for the marriage. The only one I don't want to live up to is you. Jin Wei slowly finished saying this, using his deepest sincerity.

Listening to Liu Mengyan's ears, it was like explaining her last words.

Liu Mengyan smiled, it's just that Jin Yu didn't say this, how could she withdraw after saying this, she had a temper, how could she use that blank holy decree for such a thing.

The reason is that she insisted on asking, and if she hadn't asked such a reason, maybe she would have been able to withdraw a little selfishly, and it would be impossible for her to agree if she knew.

"With you, you can't even bother me. Even if you die, I won't be a widow for you, so what you say, I don't say it. ”

Liu Mengyan has enough way out, a blank holy decree allows her to protect herself at any time, and the hole card that Jin Ruyu gave her is quite useful, so that she doesn't need to worry about the marriage contract between herself and Jin Yu at all.

"Miss Chu, I think I can stand in front of you with my head held high one day, and then open my mouth to you, please be my wife. This time I want to win your attention with my own skills. That's what I hope for the most. Therefore, in order for that moment to come, it is necessary to cut off the marriage contract given by the father at this moment. Jin Wei shook his head, looking a little stubborn.

"I don't say yes. It can only be me who has withdrawn from your marriage, not that you have come to withdraw from my marriage. "Liu Mengyan doesn't want to use the holy decree here, maybe there will be a more need in the future, it would be a pity to use it now.

Jin Ruyu's hole card to Liu Mengyan is something that Jin Chao can't guess, and in fact, whether intellectually or emotionally, not dissolving the marriage contract at this moment is the best choice for Liu Mengyan.

"Miss Chu, I have no intention of retiring from the marriage...... Jin Chao was afraid that Liu Mengyan thought that he was unwilling to marry her, so he quickly explained.

"If you have the ability, go and let the Holy Decree help you get out of the marriage, anyway, I don't care, you can toss it." Liu Mengyan had a bad tone, she was sure that she couldn't get the old emperor to retract his will by relying on Jin Wu, as long as she didn't make a move, Jin Wu couldn't do anything at all. “

"Miss Chu......" Jin Fu looked distressed, but there was also a little joy in his eyes.

There was a voice in his heart telling him that Liu Mengyan didn't care about being dragged down by him in the future, so he would keep this marriage contract, but intellectually, he didn't want to let Liu Mengyan suffer bad things because of himself.

"Rest well, and stay here until you recover." Liu Mengyan still has a bunch of things to do next, and it is impossible to take care of Jin Wei.

"Sister, where do I live if he lives here?" As soon as Chu Jiangliu woke up, he heard Liu Mengyan explain his house, and immediately spoke.

"Of course it's moving to another room." Liu Mengyan has never been gentle with her brother.

"Can't you let him move...... There are so many houses in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion that he can choose, don't occupy my place. Chu Jiangliu was not happy to see Jin Wu, a person surnamed Jin appeared beside his sister in three days, but his sister was still very concerned about Jin Wu.

"He almost died of poisoning, and he still has wounds on his arms, and if you can hurt more than him, he will definitely give you a place to lie on that bed." Liu Mengyan can promise Chu Jiangliu that there are ghosts, and Chu Jiangliu is not missing arms and legs, how can he not be humble to the injured.

"My heart hurts worse than he does." Chu Jiangliu's face was broken, his sister didn't care about his younger brother at all.

"Nonsense." Liu Mengyan sneered and no longer paid attention to her noisy brother.

On a winter morning, the air was cold, and as soon as Liu Mengyan opened the door, the cold wind poured into the room wantonly from outside, and Chu Jiangliu, who was so cold that he followed Liu Mengyan, also shivered.

"Sister, haven't you slept all night? Let's go and rest. Chu Jiangliu quickly noticed this, and no longer argued with Liu Mengyan about Jin Disaster, but cared about Liu Mengyan.

"I'm going to the Royal Academy." Liu Mengyan still has a lot to do today, the focus is not on the Royal Academy in the morning, but on the case of the Criminal Department, but in the afternoon, she also made an appointment with Murong Luoluo to meet the Taishi Mansion, so many things together, she thought about it or not to sleep.

"You actually attach so much importance to the Royal Academy?" Chu Jiangliu persevered behind Liu Mengyan and talked to Liu Mengyan.

"Talk." Liu Mengyan glanced at Chu Jiangliu who was following her with disgust, "You should also go and tidy up, you should go to the palace later." ”

Chu Jiangliu reluctantly retreated back into the house, while Liu Mengyan went to her yard.

In the morning, Liu Mengyan still felt extremely awake, and when she stepped into the academy, she couldn't help but fall asleep on the table from beginning to end.

This sleep was dark, if it wasn't for Chu Jiangliu coming over to wake her up after class, she could still sleep all the time.

When she opened her eyes, everyone else in the school had already left, and only Chu Jiangliu was standing on the edge of her table. Liu Mengyan rubbed her head and got up, took a step back, but accidentally bumped into someone.

Only then did Liu Mengyan notice a person behind her, and when she looked back, she was facing Jin Ruyu's expectant eyes.

"Jiang Xue, how about having a good talk with this king, there are many things that are not what you see." Jin Ruyu said urgently. In the past, he couldn't have imagined that he would one day be pestered with someone who said such a worthless line.

"His Royal Highness King Jin is really patient, he has been rejected from me so many times, and he still refuses to give up." Liu Mengyan walked in a different direction, stayed away from Jin Ruyu, sorted out her things and walked away, without half a point of wanting to stop for Jin Ruyu.

Chu Jiangliu hurriedly followed Liu Mengyan's steps, while guarding against Jin Ruyu, who also followed, every time he entered the palace recently, he had to worry about whether this person would appear. Before he didn't know Jin Ruyu himself, Chu Jiangliu admired Jin Ruyu like the world, but now he worships his sister, and the person his sister hates is the enemy.

"Jiang Xue, with your ingenuity, you can't see through why this king's personality is so changeable?" Jin Ruyu was like Chu Jiangliu this morning, although he was disgusted, he still said to himself.

"His Royal Highness King Jin is even more scheming and scheming, if you want to treat His Royal Highness King Jin as an opponent, I am willing to admit defeat directly." Liu Mengyan's voice is quite soft, but if you walk in front of her, you will find that her expression is already full of impatience.

Jin Ruyu and Chu Jiangliu are still different in the end, you can't scold if you want to, you can refuse to treat Jin Ruyu, but you can't offend. Although maybe she had already offended Jin Ruyu, Jin Ruyu was secretly scolding her in her heart.

"If you really want to talk about it, in the current situation, it can be regarded as a loss for this king. This king follows you every day, and he can't get you a straight eye. Jin Ruyu's voice was helpless.
