Chapter Thirty-Seven: Who Is Hard with Feet or Pegboard?
In front of everyone's eyes, Xi Hongdou took another step, in order to suffer less, she also thought that as long as she took a bigger step, she could be pricked one less time, but when she took a step, she listened to the sound made when her skin and flesh touched the nails, not to mention the big step, she almost had to pull her hips, and she couldn't take a step out, how could she talk about the size of the step?!
It was the first time Xu Min had seen someone step on the nail board to sue the emperor, this scene was really bloody, and he felt that he had been tortured by the Lord of Yama under the underworld......
The sweat on Xi Hongdou's forehead flowed vigorously, and he only felt sticky and uncomfortable under his feet, and after walking a few steps, he felt that his feet were numb. But when she looked up, she was only halfway through her first pegboard, and there were still four and a half pegboards left waiting for her.
Fang Langzhong looked at the nail board distributed by Xi Hongdou's cloak from a distance, and he couldn't bear to look at it, feeling that his feet were hurting.
Xi Hongdou held her breath, she had to hold her breath without taking a step, she was afraid that she would be discouraged and would not be able to hold on any longer, the nail board she had to walk was still so long, longer than all the roads she had walked.
Everyone booed every step Xi Hongdou took, and when Xi Hongdou finished the first nail board, his feet were already red.
Xu Min looked at this girl, suffering for the sake of the Xiao family, she must have liked her fiancé very much.
Here, Xi Hongdou was thinking in his heart, is it worth it for Xiao Zhi to be so much? If you want to sue the royal court, although it is impulsive, but when I think that I was in the most difficult time, Xiao Zhi ignored it, and when I came to propose marriage to her despite the rumors, I really felt reluctant to let Xiao Zhi die. Maybe she doesn't like it yet, but Xiao Zhi is indeed a very important person to her.
When Xi Hongdou walked to the middle of the second nail board, her clothes were soaked with sweat, she wiped her sweat, and continued to walk forward with a pale face, and the second piece was finally finished.
By the third piece, Xi Hongdou's soles of his feet were no longer aware at all, and he threw his steps forward by leaning on his hip bones, until the fourth piece, Xi Hongdou felt that his consciousness would really be unbearable, and the three pieces had passed, if he fainted at this time, then this foot would be in vain.
"Ahh Oh, my God! The onlookers suddenly shouted, because when they saw Xi Hongdou suddenly running, everyone thought that Xi Hongdou was going to faint halfway, but Xi Hongdou actually ran like this.
Xi Hongdou looked at the blood flowing out of his feet, and deeply suspected that those who fainted halfway before were definitely shocked caused by severe blood loss, and now his feet are unconscious, and he doesn't know if the anesthetic works or the pain is numb, anyway, the pain will not be painful. So take advantage of the numbness under your feet and run before you faint.
The fourth nail board ran over like this, and Fang Langzhong shouted to remind: "Be light, don't put on your muscles, otherwise your feet will be wasted!" "Flesh injuries are actually easy to deal with, but if you hurt your muscles and bones, you really have to leave a disability.
Where can Xi Hongdou hear those now, he can't hear any movement in his ears, he only feels his heartbeat and heavy wheezing, his eyes look straight at the last nail board, Xi Hongdou relies on the only remaining bit of consciousness to move forward.
The onlookers all shouted, this is really a moment to witness history, how many years, maybe the thin woman in front of her is the first person who can sue the royal court in recent decades! How many strong men can't stand the nail board, this woman actually walked four pieces!
Xu Min frowned and looked at Xi Hongdou, and said, "There is only a little bit left." The woman in front of her touched her too much.
Xi Hongdou walked forward for another five feet, and in the last five feet, she fell down all of a sudden, and her palm was also pierced by nails, although her feet were numb, but this hand hurt, and the person suddenly felt more energetic, and when she barely got up, her clothes were also torn by nails, and her arms and body were also injured.
When Xi Hongdou's left foot touched the normal ground, he only felt that people were fluttering, and when his right foot also came down, the shouts in the crowd could not be suppressed!
"That's amazing!" The onlookers all sighed that a little girl was so powerful!
Xi Hongdou had no strength in his body, and the whole person fell to the ground, but he still looked up at Zhao Zhen and said, "My paper must be sent to the saint......" Then the whites of his eyes rolled, and he finally dizzy.
Xu Min hurriedly stepped forward and squatted down to look, at this time, Fang Langzhong also rushed up, and after checking Xi Hongdou's pulse, he said: "The person is not dead, but the injury is too serious, and it must be treated quickly!" ”
Xu Min saw that Xi Hongdou's situation was not very good, so he looked at Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen got up, took the paper from Xu Min's hand, and said: "This is also a ruthless person, and there is such a one after so many years!" Then he said to Xu Min: "I'll send the paper, you can leave the aftermath." Then he turned around and entered the palace gate.
Xu Min waited for Zhao Zhen to leave before raising his head, and then said to Fang Langzhong: "Hurry up and save people, you are from Xinglintang, right?" ”
Fang Langzhong was surprised, how could this internal official know that he was from Xinglin Hall? However, Xi Hongdou's injury was also serious, so he quickly asked the guy to carry the person on his back and hurried back to Xinglin Hall.
Xu Min watched Fang Langzhong leave with someone, so he sighed and asked the guards to take back the nail board, but when he was dealing with the aftermath, he found a small package at his feet, and when he picked it up, he saw that it was all some things used by girls, as well as silver and silver ticket title deeds or something.
The word Xi Hongdou was written on the title deed, and he remembered that the official registration he had just received from Xi Hongdou had not been returned, but he was going back to the palace now, and he could only return it to Xi Hongdou when he left the palace next time.
Here, Xi Hongdou was taken back to Xinglin Hall by Fang Langzhong, and quickly cleaned up the wound, the wound on his body was not serious, but after all, it was a woman, and it was inconvenient, so he called his daughter from the back hall to help.
Fang Sisi saw that the girl in front of him was injured like this, and asked, "This is the woman my father said might go to sue the emperor?" ”
"Don't ask, hurry up and treat the wounds on her body, and I'll come on my feet." Fang Langzhong left the medicine as he spoke, and then asked the guy to hurry up and boil the medicine, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with a high fever in the future.
Fang Sisi hurriedly took off Xi Hongdou's clothes, there were also blood stains on the dirty clothes inside, she hurriedly cleaned up the wound and applied medicine, and then she could only find her own clean clothes to change Xi Hongdou first, and then go to Fang Langzhong to come over.
Fang Langzhong took the soaked potion to clean the wound called by Xi Hongdou first, thinking that the nail was deep and difficult to clean, but this foot is now a blur of flesh and blood, and can only be washed with a strong potion, and then it took several bottles of his own medicine powder to cover all the wounds.
After the wound was treated, Fang Langzhong was also tired and sweating, and the man boiled the medicine, so he asked Fang Sisi to come over and help feed it.
"This girl is really amazing, I don't dare to go!" Fang Sisi is also the same age as Xi Hongdou, and he has seen many patients on weekdays, and there are also those with broken arms and legs, but he doesn't feel that the little girl in front of him is a ruthless person!
Xi Hongdou slept in Xinglin Hall for a day and a night, and didn't wake up until noon the next day. During this period, Fang Langzhong was afraid that Xi Hongdou would have a fever at night, and deliberately asked Fang Sisi to stay here without sleeping all night, but fortunately, Xi Hongdou's body was still good, and there was no sign of fever overnight.
"Ah......" As soon as Xi Hongdou woke up, he grinned and wailed, his hands and feet were wrapped like zongzi, and the most important thing was that it hurt to death! The numbness when I stepped on the nail board had passed, and now I was left with the pain of drilling.
Fang Sisi was startled, hurriedly came over to take a look, and then went to find Fang Langzhong to come and see, Fang Langzhong saw that Xi Hongdou was okay, but he was relieved.
"It's fine when you wake up, it hurts a little bit, and you can get better with a bowl of painkillers in a while." Fang Langzhong said with a smile, and after checking the pulse again, he nodded, now there is no major problem except for skin trauma, but Xi Hongdou is running and jumping on the nail board, and I don't know if she has hurt her muscles and bones, so she will have to wait for her feet to get down and walk by herself.
Xi Hongdou blushed in pain and had a thick neck, but still asked: "My paper ......!" ”
"That big official took the pleadings and said that he would send them to the saint, and your complaint was done!" Fang Langzhong said.
Xi Hongdou breathed a sigh of relief, there was no other concern, and now he felt that it hurt even more.
Fang Sisi hurriedly brought the painkiller over and said, "Just boiled, you have to dry it." ”
"I'll blow it, it hurts, ......I can't bear it," Xi Hongdou said suddenly, and now he wants to drink it in his mouth quickly.
Fang Sisi was helpless, so he hurriedly took another bowl, it was too cold, and then he blew a spoonful and fed a spoonful, so that he could be regarded as getting a bowl of medicine for Xi Hongdou into his mouth.
"Thank you." Xi Hongdou thanked her, although she gave the consultation fee, but she didn't give other service fees, people helped her, and she had to know how to be grateful.
Fang Sisi smiled, they were peers, but they could also talk together, and soon the two became warm.
Xi Hongdou drank the medicine, drank a bowl of porridge, and then went back to sleep.
On the other end, the emperor looked at the paper sent by Zhao Zhen, and then said, "Is there a secret letter in the fold?" ”
Zhao Zhen glanced at the emperor's table, after all, the emperor's age was there, and his energy was not so great, and some of the twists and turns were piled up for several days, so he said: "Your Majesty, it may be in the pile that was removed before." ”
"Go find it!" The emperor said, Zhao Zhen hurriedly went to the window to rummage, and then really turned to a book of household folds, which did contain secret letters.
The emperor took it and read it, and said, "I really wronged Xiao Aiqing." After sighing, people can't disobey old age in the end.
Zhao Zhen asked, "Your Majesty, what is ...... now?" ”
"Go to the edict and pass the decree, and Xiao Aiqing will be reinstated." The emperor said that when you are old, you can't be unsure of the old season.
Zhao Zhen retreated, and then went to the edict.
When Master Xiao heard that he had been reinstated, his mind was blank. Xiao Zhi hurriedly asked, "Did someone sue the royal court?" ”
Zhao Zhen nodded: "Xiao Gongzi's fiancée went to the nail board, and the emperor knew that Lord Xiao had been wronged, so he let the old slave come!" ”
After hearing this, Xiao Zhi didn't care about it, and ran out with a prison uniform on his body, running all the way to the palace gate.
