362 Drunken (13)
At this time, there was only one big hospital opened by the Tang people in Shanghai, that is, the first hospital in Shanghai. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so Bai Nan just changed a floor, and he saw the seventh sister who had just walked away from the ghost gate.
The seventh sister lying on the hospital bed stared at the ceiling, and even Bai Nan didn't know when he entered the room. It wasn't until Bai Nan came to her bedside that she didn't notice it.
Tears suddenly appeared on the originally empty and empty face.
"I'm sorry for you......" The seventh sister faced him shamelessly.
Bai Nan shook his head and said, "Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with Kexin, and the child in her belly is fine." It's you, are you okay? ”
The seventh sister looked at Bai Nan with tearful eyes, stared for a few seconds, and then threw herself into his arms and cried whining, "Xiao Tao is dead, Xiao Tao is dead...... It's all my fault. ”
Bai Nan didn't know how to comfort her, the seventh sister was panicked at this time, and even she no longer used the self-title of concubine. Bai Nan almost didn't know the dead girl, and he could only say to the seventh sister: "Mourning and change." ”
The seventh sister raised her head, looked at Bai Nan, and said, "I really don't know about Xing'er's affairs, I ...... I actually guessed that she was a member of the White Lotus Sect, but I just thought that she was just an ordinary victim girl, and she wouldn't be involved too much in the past, but I didn't expect that she was so deeply poisoned by the White Lotus Sect, and the White Lotus Sect was really harmful! ”
Then, the seventh sister had a sad expression and said: "Xing'er poisoned me, she said that I would die within three days, and I would die sooner or later, but I didn't dare to face you, so I hung the beam, but I was saved by your people." But that's fine, see you. I've got a finish. ”
Bai Nan was taken aback: "What." Have you been poisoned? ”
The seventh sister smiled bitterly and said, "The White Lotus Sect is famous for its strange spells and side doors on the rivers and lakes. Some poisons are also quite normal. I'm afraid I'm not saved, and before I die, I want to know, Bai Nan, do you have a little joy in me? ”
Bai Nan has always been less straightforward about feelings than he was when he handled affairs. When Datang was still hesitant and helpless when he had just crossed over, Bai Nan had already boldly designed the Cuckoo Project, and resolutely made it happen when everyone made fun of him for his wild thoughts. When Chen Mo came to Shanghai, he was boycotted by the locals. Bai Nan directly turned his hand and suppressed them with means that the locals couldn't stop.
But no one is perfect, Bai Nan can always be shrewd in government and military, but in matters such as feelings, he is not so bright. It can be said that Bai Nan is a very hypocritical man. He has excellent conditions that most men don't have, and it's easy for women to indulge in him, but he doesn't have a good **** state to manage the situation. After being pushed backwards by Meora, he was ashamed to express his love for Meora. Eventually, Meora chose to leave his side and start her own business. He doesn't love Seventh Sister. But he was also moved by the stubbornness and tenacity of the seventh sister, and couldn't bear to refuse her directly, for fear that she would be hurt.
For Bai Nan, he didn't understand that the stupidest thing in a relationship is to delay or conceal. He is very pretentious, and he can't be as decisive and bold as anything else. Like many people, in Jin Yong's novels, they angrily reprimanded Chen Jialuo and Zhang Wuji, thinking that they were ashamed of the seven-foot eyebrows, but when it came to them, they were equally worried and hesitant.
Naturally, Bai Nan is still stronger than Chen Jialuo and Zhang Wuji, at least he has never been ambiguous in major matters.
And at this time, Bai Nan seemed to have understood something, or everything that had just happened had let him know that the road between himself and the Seventh Sister, which was originally impassable, was completely blocked. So he relentlessly and said to the seventh sister with sincere eyes and tone: "Seventh sister, I am very grateful for your favor, which flatters me. But in my Bai Nan's life, the big ones were basically thrown to the country of Datang, and the small ones could only be left slightly for Kexin and our children. You ask me if I like you or not, I want to say that you are a very good girl, beautiful, straightforward, and have a good temperament, and I naturally have a good impression of you, since the ship in Guangzhou back then. However, I don't think I'm going to take over any woman I like. I can't give every woman a complete love, and even I can't give Kexin a complete love. I can only suffer and endure hardship, how can I bear to see a good girl suffer this sin? Seventh sister, I'm sorry. ”
The seventh sister fell on the bed, a little embarrassed, looked at Bai Nan, but showed a little smile, and said: "It turns out that you think like this, you are also interesting, but it seems that you have married yourself to the country." But I think that a peerless hero like you, although it can't satisfy the happiness of my little girl, can always make more people happy. I believe what you said, you are a responsible man, and I also think I am not wrong, but I have no fate. Well, now I can die with peace of mind, Xiao Tao will be very lonely underground, she is so timid, she will cry when she encounters any bull head and horse face, I have to protect her. ”
Bai Nan shook his head and said, "You won't die, I won't let you go to see Xiao Tao." Moreover, Xiao Tao is a kind girl, and after death, she will definitely go to a better place than where we are now. ”
The seventh sister asked, "I was poisoned, how could I not die?" ”
Bai Nan didn't answer, and walked out of the ward directly to find the doctor. Several doctors entered the ward, pushed the seventh sister away, and did a toxicology test. Tests have proved that Qijie has indeed been infected with a trace amount of plant protein toxin, which will inactivate ribosomes after entering human cells, which is quite dangerous. The medical staff immediately prepared antivenom, and made the seventh sister take a large amount of protein-rich foods such as egg whites to protect the gastric mucosa, and then injected normal saline and glucose to dilute the toxin. Because the toxin has a destructive effect on the blood, the doctor also tested the blood type of the seventh sister and gave her a large amount of blood transfusion to replace the blood that had been inactivated.
Coincidentally, Bai Nan and Seventh Sister are of the same blood type, and Bai Nan volunteered to deliver 300cc of blood to Seventh Sister. When the seventh sister was receiving treatment, she was still awake, she watched Bai Nan's blood flow into her body, and turned her head to look at Bai Nan who was donating blood on the hospital bed over there, and there were all kinds of feelings in her heart.
Eventually, it was rescued. The seventh sister was out of danger at midnight that day. It's kind of picking up a life. For Bai Nam. is also relieved, although he only contributed some blood, but he always feels that he has eliminated part of his guilt.
The wife and children have already left the hospital, but they have not returned home, and the home has become the scene of a murder fight, which not only needs to be cleaned up, but Xu Xin also hopes not to return to that place for the time being. They are temporarily staying in a hotel in Shanghai, where they are still protected by multiple guards.
Bai Nan got into the Hongqi car. Pan Pu sat in the co-pilot seat, and it was almost twelve o'clock in the morning. Pan Pu turned around and asked Bai Nandao, "Governor, do you want to find a place to eat?" ”
Bai Nan asked, "Are there 24-hour restaurants in Shanghai now?" ”
Pan Pu said: "There are only one or two in Los Angeles, and there are none in Shanghai, but Huimin Supermarket is open 24 hours a day, although there is not much delicious food there, but at least it sells steamed buns, tea eggs and corn cobs and the like. ”
Huimin Supermarket is also a retail chain brand of Datang, which is different from large supermarkets such as Lianhua. Huimin Supermarket is a private supermarket chain, and its scale is at the level of a convenience store. There are generally no more than four shelves. Borrowing from the 7-Eleven model, it's open 24 hours a day and offers some convenience food, so it has locations in major cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Rose Garden, Seattle and Vancouver. Now it even has a branch in Shanghai.
Bai Nan nodded in agreement with this choice, and Pan Pu asked the driver to drive the car to Huimin Supermarket. Even though most Shanghainese don't have a nightlife and don't go out in the middle of the night to buy food, there are still sporadic customers in the store. There is no curfew, and the presence of street lights everywhere in Shanghai has made many people more accustomed to moving at night.
After asking for some food, Pan Pu asked Bai Nandao: "The Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect who committed the assassination is still in our custody, what are you going to do with her, Governor?" ”
Bai Nan remembered the Lori who looked harmless to humans and animals, but actually had a monster hidden in his heart, and couldn't help but feel that this thing was too terrible. No matter who you are, you won't subconsciously beware of a little girl, and it was this little girl who almost ruined her home. For her, Bai Nan is hateful and pitiful. The seventh sister did not intercede for Xing'er, obviously Xiao Tao's death hit her hard, and the seventh sister was reluctant to think of this person, some meaning that can be ignored.
Bai Nandao: "It's useless to ask me, we have a court." Although this girl is a native of the Qing Dynasty, she will always be judged for committing crimes in the land of our Tang people. ”
Pan Pu said: "However, as far as we can collect information, we can not prosecute her for many crimes, intentional injury is one, and murder is still attempted, assassination of high-ranking state officials and their relatives can also be counted as conspiracy, and the death of another girl can also be related to a little manslaughter, but she is only fifteen years old, and we are not yet at the age of full criminal responsibility by the standards of our Datang, so if we go through the legal process, it is almost impossible for us to set a severe sentence for her." ”
Bai Nan glanced at Pan Pu and said, "Then you mean not to go through the legal process?" ”
Pan Pu said: "The Shanghai Special Economic Zone is still in a state of semi-military control, and if we can go through the procedures of a military court, we can ask her to come to the military court, and then there will be more room for maneuver." ”
Bai Nan frowned and said, "At the mercy of laws and rules, this is the most unacceptable thing in our current civil service system in Datang. The law does not exist to make us feel fulfilled. It's a reality that criminals aren't over the age of sixteen, and I'm angry that she's done murder against my family, but I don't need to find a way to kill a fifteen-year-old girl to vent my anger. We will do what the law comes about. Isn't it time to think more deeply about the issues behind this? She is just a teenager, but she has been brainwashed by the White Lotus Sect and is burdened with deep hatred, how to avoid similar incidents from happening again is a problem we should consider more. ”
Bai Nan would not deliberately pursue killing this girl, and whether she deserved a second chance or not was not a matter for Bai Nan. In fact, in the final court's verdict, the felony crimes of participating in the White Lotus Cult's illegal organization involving high-ranking people, intentional injury, attempted intentional murder, manslaughter, conspiracy and assassination, and violent terrorist attack were combined, and even though she was only 15 years old, she was sentenced to three years in a juvenile detention center before the age of 18, and 25 years after the age of 18 for betrayal and exile in Alaska.
Xing'er in the court didn't know what punishment she was sentenced to, she only knew that Tang Ren was not going to kill her. Xiao Tao died because of herself, which made her depressed for a long time. And the seventh sister has never seen her since that day, and the rest of her life is the same.
Alaska's convict frontier is the most special colony of the Tang Dynasty. This is the coldest place in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and in winter it is even accompanied by eternal night and aurora. Sentenced to exile are not allowed to leave the "prison" for the duration of their sentences, which is actually a colonial village. There will be housing, mines, and even schools and hospitals. Exiled convicts were even allowed to marry, but their freedom was always restricted, they were not allowed to leave the place of imprisonment, they lacked freedom during the sentence, they were called up to eat, work, and sleep on time, even if they were married or had a family.
This is one of the means by which Datang uses criminals to develop colonies, and the targets are all places with the most difficult conditions. Criminals sentenced to exile in Alaska often serve more than 20 years in prison, and after 20 years, even if they are allowed to leave, many will not. They have become accustomed to this cold land, and have even established a family here, and will stay here forever to strengthen the Tang Republic's control over here.
Many of the families who rebelled against the Tang Army in Jiangnan have been sent to Alaska. These prisoners will allow Datang to have 10,000 residents in Alaska, or more precisely convict residents.
Due to her special status in the White Lotus Sect, Xing'er was not even allowed to contact her cellmates during her entire detention period. This incident also caused Paiknam to submit a new report to the National Assembly and the National Council, which aimed to pay close attention to the dynamics of superstitious illegal cult preaching among immigrants so as not to have a negative impact on national security.
The White Lotus Sect had great influence among the Qing people, and the most important weapons that the Tang Dynasty could use to deal with it were knowledge and science. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to strengthen the education of new immigrants. (To be continued.) )
