First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

Wei Zhong didn't dare to think too much and quickly carried Wei Ling on his back with the help of Su Jixiang.

Su Jixiang asked Wei Zhong to carry Wei Ling to the carriage and wait for him, while he went to check the snowy ground where Wei Ling had been lying... After he was moved away, the ground beneath him was stained red, and there was a bundle on the snowy ground to one side...

When Su Jixiang opened the bundle, he almost threw the whole bundle out!

Inside the bundle was a human head. It was the dead of winter, so the head was not rotten, but the skin was already grayish white, and it was obvious that it had been several days...

With just one glance, Su Jixiang recognized that the head belonged to Emperor Jing...

After all, she came from the palace and had seen the emperor a few times...

So...what Wei Ling did was to assassinate Emperor Jing?

Although Su Jixiang didn't know why Wei Ling had to hide this from others, considering the deep hatred between Wei Ling and Emperor Jing, it was only right for him to risk his life to cut off Emperor Jing's Rentuo and bring it back... Su Jixiang didn't have time to think about it. He dug a not very deep hole where the bonfire burned out, and put the head and the package directly into it.

She didn't have any other tools at the moment, so it was not easy to dig a hole in the frozen soil. However, there was still a little bit of residual heat from the charcoal under the place where the bonfire had burned out, and the ground was soft. So it was not difficult to dig. Su Jixiang used a dagger to dig the hole. She found this dagger in a box in the yard. I think Wei Ling prepared it for her to use for self-defense, but he never gave it to her.

This dagger is extremely sharp, and Su Jixiang has already tested it in the yard.

These days, when she went into the mountains to hunt and set traps, she used this dagger to cut ropes or chop things.

After hastily burying the head, Li Xiaoruo also found a few stones to make a mark, and then shoveled fresh snow from the side to cover the bloodstains left by Wei Ling.

She checked carefully again and found nothing missing, so she untied the black deer's reins, jumped on the horse, and rode to catch up with Wei Zhong who had already carried Wei Ling down the mountain.

When Su Jixiang arrived beside the carriage, Wei Zhong had just arrived.

After helping Wei Zhong place Wei Ling in the cart and tying the black deer's reins to the back of the cart, Su Jixiang let Wei Zhong drive the cart back.

Wei Zhong naturally did not dare to delay, and quickly turned the carriage around and galloped towards Mangcheng.

Su Jixiang sat in the carriage, looking at Wei Ling who was lying motionless beside him.

She raised her hand and touched his cheek, which was ice-cold. Frightened, she quickly went to check Wei Ling's pulse.

Fortunately, although it is weak, I can still feel it...

Su Jixiang wanted to see where exactly Wei Ling was injured, but after thinking it over he decided not to.

She had nothing at hand now and could not rashly turn over Wei Ling.

"Uncle Zhong, after we enter the city, go and invite Lord Xie over." Su Jixiang said to Wei Zhong who was driving the carriage.

"Yes, ma'am!" Wei Zhong responded and shook the whip to urge the carriage forward!

With Su Jixiang's instructions, Wei Zhong did not make the news of Wei Ling's injury known in the yard. He first sent Wei Jing, who was on duty, away and drove the carriage directly to the backyard. Then he helped Su Jixiang move Wei Ling from the carriage to the bed.

"Really don't we need to find a doctor first?" Wei Zhong looked at the pale Wei Ling with some concern and asked. "Master Xie doesn't know any medical skills!"

"Let's get him here first." Su Jixiang said with certainty.

Wei Zhong nodded and hurried out.

Although Su Jixiang didn't know what the consequences of assassinating Emperor Jing would be, she was sure that this matter was not trivial! So even if she wanted to save Wei Ling, she couldn't just go to the street to find a doctor.

If this matter gets out, I don’t know what kind of trouble it will cause.

Xie Yingfeng came very quickly and smelled a strong smell of blood as soon as he entered the door.

"You actually managed to pick this guy up from outside..." Xie Yingfeng took two steps at a time and rushed to the bedside and asked.

He only took one glance to know that Wei Ling was in bad condition.

"Wait a moment, I'll go call my cousin over!" Xie Yingfeng's face suddenly changed, and he immediately said to Su Jixiang.

He also received news that Emperor Jing had already reached an agreement with Emperor Longchang and was to be escorted back to Beijing to be conferred a title, but he was assassinated the night before he left! Moreover, the murderer was very arrogant and even killed the dozen Jinwu Guards who were chasing him, leaving no one alive!

This news had just arrived not long ago... and Su Jixiang picked up the seriously injured and unconscious Wei Ling...

This guy really doesn't care about his life.

Didn't he know his own physical condition? He actually went to fight against the Jinwu Guards around Emperor Longchang.

The Jinwu Guards around Emperor Longchang were all secret guards around Emperor Longchang. Although they were not top-notch experts, they were definitely tough guys...

Xie Yingfeng felt like his head was swollen. Is Wei Ling crazy?

There are other ways to take revenge, but he chose the most direct and embarrassing one for Emperor Longchang...

The Longchang Emperor has already announced that he has pardoned Emperor Jing's previous crimes...

If Emperor Longchang finds out that the murderer is Wei Ling, I'm afraid everyone will be in trouble!

Fortunately, it’s almost the end of the year.

His cousin Zhou Zi has returned to Mangcheng. Whether Wei Ling's life can be saved depends on Wei Ling's luck.

Su Jixiang saw that Xie Yingfeng came back with a young man of the same age not long after he went out. The man was wearing a gray cotton robe, his face was fair and clean, and he exuded a strong scholarly air. His facial features were very light, but when combined together, he had a fresh and natural feeling of a bamboo forest in spring, which made people feel very comfortable when looking at him.

"Greetings, Madam Wei." When the man saw Su Jixiang, he hurriedly bowed and went straight to the bedside.

"Is there still hope?" Xie Yingfeng asked while standing aside.

The gray-robed young man didn't even respond to his words, but just concentrated on taking his pulse.

"He didn't even take the life-saving pill I gave him!" Soon, a trace of anger appeared on the man's face.

He opened the medicine box he carried with him, found a porcelain bottle from the interlayer, poured out a pill, and then stuffed it into Wei Ling's mouth.

"Nine-transformation Soul-restoring Pill!" Xie Yingfeng cried out, "Didn't you say that you gave the only one to Wei Ling? How come you still have one?"

The man rolled his eyes at him, and Xie Yingfeng then made a gesture to keep quiet!

Okay, okay! He knew that his good cousin had obviously kept one secretly!
