Murong Jingyan turned a deaf ear to her words.

"Did I go over there or what?"

"Of course you come over."

"Why should I trust you?"

"Of course it's because," Murong Jingyan pressed the dagger in his hand against Shen Muxi's neck, and a blood mark immediately appeared on the porcelain-white skin, "You have no choice."

"Okay, put down the dagger and I'll come over."

Murong Jingyan raised his hand to stop Murong Jingheng's actions.

"No weapons allowed."

Murong Jingyan looked at Shen Muxi deeply, took off the dagger he was carrying, and also took off his outer robe.

Murong Jingheng was still worried, "Barefoot, only wearing underwear."

He Hong couldn't bear to listen any longer, "Third Prince, please stop pushing your luck."

Even though the rain has stopped.

The weather is damp and cold, and the coldness penetrates into the bones.

His Highness was previously infected with a cold poison. Even though the poison has been cured now, he is still more sensitive to cold than ordinary people.

He Hong's eyes were filled with worry.

Murong Jingheng smiled, "He can go back and collect the body of this woman."

After saying that, he pulled Shen Muxi and was about to retreat.

"He Hong."

After being warned by Murong Jingyan, He Hong shut up obediently.

Seeing Murong Jingyan obediently taking off his outer clothes.

Shen Muxi couldn't say how she felt.

Murong Jingyan seemed to have sensed something and looked up at her, his eyes still as pure as before.

Shen Muxi's reason told her that she should turn her head away and not look at him.

But the body is extremely honest.

My eyes were almost glued to him.

Watching him walk towards her step by step in the rain.

In my ears was the whistling sound of the wind and Murong Jingheng's noisy voice.

It's obviously very cold.

But she felt her eyes were getting hot.

"Murong Jingyan, do you know that you are like a stray dog ​​right now, just for a woman. Is it worth it?"

Shen Muxi couldn't help but retort, "Killing is not enough, why do you have to do this?"

In her impression, even when Murong Jingyan had avenged his great hatred before, he had never been so greedy as this.

"He is him, and I am me. He is too soft-hearted and is destined to accomplish nothing great." While Murong Jingheng was speaking, Murong Jingyan was already half a foot away from them.

Murong Jingheng kicked a dagger in front of Murong Jingyan.

"Now, pick up the dagger and remove the tendons in your right hand. And let everyone in the world know that you are now a cripple."

Seeing Murong Jingyan really bending down to pick up the dagger, Shen Muxi didn't know whether it was because of the cold or fear.

"Murong Jingyan."

Murong Jingyan's hand paused slightly, and he quickly took the dagger in his hand.

Shen Muxi felt a pang of pain in her heart, "Let's go back..."

She choked out a sob and said, "There's no need to do this. Really, I'm not worth it."

Murong Jingyan only glanced at Shen Muxi indifferently, and then returned his gaze to Murong Jingheng. "Besides this, is there anything else? If you want to say it, just say it clearly at once, don't dither."

"interesting."

Murong Jingheng smiled, "You really do understand me, Royal Brother."

"Since a disabled person cannot become emperor, then naturally we must support the emperor's younger brother to take the throne."

Murong Jingheng was about to raise his hand to make a gesture.

Shen Muxi made up her mind and bit Murong Jingheng's right hand. When Murong Jingheng pulled out another dagger with his left hand, she hit the dagger with all her strength.

Murong Jingheng didn't seem to expect that Shen Muxi would be so decisive.

He quickly put away the dagger.

"You bitch, are you going to die?"

Shen Muxi took the opportunity to bite his arm.

"what!!"

A scream.

Several sharp arrows were fired from behind.

Shen Muxi closed his eyes tightly, ready to face the excruciating pain.

A good while.

The expected pain did not come.

The next moment, she felt a warmth on her back as she was embraced by a warm embrace.

Soon, the owner of the arms staggered and brought her out of the range of the feather arrows.

Only then did Shen Muxi discover that there were two arrows stuck in Murong Jingyan's back.

despite this.

He swung the dagger with the same agility.

Wherever he went, he almost killed people with one blow.

The sudden change shocked Murong Jingheng.

All the cards in my hand are gone.

He turned around and was about to hit her.

All the people surrounded by He Xuan were surrounded.

At this moment, he changed his previous arrogance and domineering attitude.

He knelt before Murong Jingyan and kowtowed repeatedly, "Royal brother, please forgive me this time. I won't dare to do it again."

Murong Jingyan sneered, "You've gone to great lengths to lure me out, just to orchestrate a coup. But have you ever considered that all this is just a pretext for someone else?"

Murong Jingheng stopped kowtowing halfway.

"What do you mean?"

Murong Jingyan curled his lips and smiled coldly.

He raised his hand and waved.

He Hong first loosely draped a heavy cloak over Murong Jingheng, trying his best to avoid touching the feather arrow stuck in his back.

Behind He Hong, two disheveled, bearded men were escorted forward.

"Zhang Wu and Wu Yong are your men, right? Also, the spies you planted in the various palaces have been eliminated. It was from them that I learned that my good brother, the Emperor, was openly colluding with the Hui people in Xinjiang and intending to rule with foreign tribes. He's truly naive."

Murong Jingheng originally wanted to deny it outright.

The moment he saw the person being brought up, he was completely stunned.

He always thought that what he did was perfect.

Unexpectedly, in the end, it looked like a child's play of house in the eyes of others.

"Now, you have nothing to say?"

Murong Jingyan raised his eyebrows.

Murong Jingheng seemed to have been completely drained of all his strength, and when he was taken away by the Imperial Guards, he almost had to be half-dragged away.

Shen Muxi didn't care about his foot injury.

After untying the ropes on his body, he immediately checked Murong Jingyan's injuries.

Others can't see it, but she can't be fooled.

Those two arrows were poisoned, so Murong Jingheng was so shocked.

It seemed to confirm her guess.

At the moment she was about to touch Murong Jingyan, Murong Jingyan smiled at her.

Then, he closed his eyes and fell heavily on top of her.

"Your Highness!!!"

...

In the palace.

The palace maids and eunuchs came in and out in an orderly manner.

"Quick, bandages, scissors, and wound medicine. He Hong, go get the medicine and boil it according to the prescription I gave you."

Shen Muxi took a deep breath and gave orders to everyone following him.

Even though he was limping and in a dishevel, it couldn't stop her determination to stay by his side.

The imperial physician who was summoned later earnestly advised, "Girl, your foot needs to be straightened as soon as possible, otherwise..."

"Then I'll fix the bones here."

Shen Muxi spoke without allowing any further arguments, and at the same time, he shouted to He Xuan, "He Xuan, ask Xia Chan to find me a wheelchair."

Shen Muxi's attitude was too resolute.

The imperial physician had no choice but to adjust her bones on the spot.

"Girl, it may be a little painful, please bear with it."

"I can do it." Shen Muxi nodded.

The voice just fell.

There was a "click" sound.

The pain from her ankle almost made her eyes go black.

She suddenly lost her breath and coughed for a long time before she recovered.

While putting a splint on Shen Muxi, the imperial physician said, "The girl's leg injury seems to have sequelae. During this period, you should avoid running."

"I see."

Xia Chan pushed the wheelchair over.

Shen Muxi pushed the wheelchair and stopped beside Murong Jingyan's bed.

Doctor Lin, who specializes in external injuries, is carefully cleaning his wound.

Shen Muxi felt very uncomfortable, "The black blood around his wound must be drained clean, otherwise the wound will easily become infected."

Doctor Lin said respectfully, "Please rest assured, young lady."

Soon, Murong Jingyan's wound was cleaned. The moment he confirmed that the arrow had no barb, Doctor Lin dropped the arrow, bringing up a stream of black blood.

What followed was a skillful and efficient bleeding and hemostasis.

Until the black blood in the wound turns back to red.

Doctor Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

Throughout the whole process, Murong Jingyan did not utter a single sound while in a coma.

Shen Muxi also breathed a sigh of relief, and soon she breathed a sigh of relief again, "Your Highness, will you have a high fever in your current condition?"

Wound infection and fever are absolutely normal things.

"Your Highness has been poisoned by a cold before, so a high fever is unlikely. However, being in a coma is always dangerous. If Your Highness doesn't wake up in two days, I'm afraid it will be dangerous."

Two days...

Shen Muxi took a look at his injuries.

"Xia Chan."

"girl?"

"Come closer, I have something to tell you."

Xia Chan obediently put her ear close to Shen Muxi's mouth.

After Shen Muxi finished speaking, she stood up and said, "I will do it right away."

Immediately afterwards, Shen Muxi called He Hong and He Xuan.

"I'm not trying to overstep my bounds. It's just that His Highness must have a lot to deal with these days, but now he..."

He Hong saw Shen Muxi's worry at a glance and assured her, "Your Highness has made arrangements in advance, so you don't have to worry."

Shen Muxi finally felt relieved, "Okay, then you guys go and get busy, I'll be here."

He Xuan looked at her worriedly, "Girl, your legs..."

Shen Muxi tilted her body and glanced at her splinted leg, then waved her hand nonchalantly, "It's okay."

...

These days, Yecheng is very uneasy.

First, spies from Xinjiang infiltrated.

Afterwards, various officials colluded with the Hui people to assassinate the prince.

The Imperial Guards in Beijing conducted frequent patrols.

Everyone is at risk.

royal palace.

Shen Muxi changed Murong Jingyan's wet towel again.

He Hong stepped forward worriedly and said, "Miss, you haven't slept for three days. If you continue like this, even a strong body will not be able to bear it. Why don't you replace your subordinates?"

Shen Muxi shook his head palely.

"You can leave first. I will call you when I need you."

Shen Muxi persisted.

He Hong didn't dare to say anything else and quietly retreated.

Inside the bedroom, it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The only sound was the slight noise made by the palace maids and eunuchs adding water.

Looking at the person with pale lips on the bed.

Shen Muxi was overwhelmed with emotions.

After being kidnapped by Murong Jingheng, she could no longer see clearly Murong Jingyan's feelings for her.

Seeing his attitude towards Murong Jingyan, she knew that he had actually planned everything.

The two howls she uttered only increased Murong Jingheng's trust in her.

But why did he block the arrow for her at the critical moment?

Shen Muxi rubbed his face.

Maybe...

His feelings for her were not a spur-of-the-moment thing.

but...

She no longer had the energy to guess.

...

Murong Jingyan felt like he had a very long dream.

In his dream, he returned to his previous life.

He did not risk everything and go to Beichen, but continued to stay in Nanyuan.

What he got in return was betrayal by his close confidants.

Just when he was at his wit's end, a skinny girl saved him.

At that time, he had lost his former vigor and looked like a middle-aged homeless man.

The other beggars were bullying him.

Only she looked at him the same way as always.

It was as if everything was just a stagnant pool in her eyes.

"Thank you for saving me, may I know your name?"

"Meeting is fate. As long as my food can help you, it's fine."

She forced a smile and left with the lunch box.

He wanted to catch up.

A sudden awakening.

He clenched the "thing" in his hand.

what's the situation?

Turn around and look.

Under the dim light.

The haggard-looking woman had dark circles under her eyes.

Holding his hand tightly.

Maybe I was too tired.

His movements were so large that they didn't wake her up.

Maybe it was because her sleeping face was too peaceful.

Murong Jingyan couldn't help but reach out and wanted to poke her face.

The hand has not been extended yet.

The sharp pain from her back made her afraid to act rashly.

It looks good just like this...

Good...

Murong Jingyan looked at the person who was so close to him.

He couldn't help but lean his head towards her.

Listening to her shallow breathing, I continued to fall into a deep sleep.

...

The next day.

Murong Jingyan woke up slowly with a satisfied smile.

He met the inquiring gazes of He Hong and He Xuan.

The two of them didn't seem to expect Murong Jingyan to wake up suddenly.

They couldn't help but shudder.

Murong Jingyan didn't have time to argue with these two people.

His eyes scanned the surroundings.

In the imperial palace, apart from He Hong and He Xuan, there was only one imperial physician and three eunuchs.

Apart from this, there is no one else.

"Where is the Crown Princess?" His voice was hoarse.

Seeing that he was still trying to get up, He Xuan hurried forward to help him and stuffed two large pillows behind him.

He didn't dare to face his master's gaze, so he had to speak in a cowardly manner.

"The girl...the girl has already left the palace."

Murong Jingyan tightly grasped the quilt in his hand.

Just when he thought he was being tricked again and felt heartbroken, a loud "Uncle Jing" brought him back to life instantly.

Murong Jingyan's eyes were filled with ecstasy, and the corners of his mouth were raised so high that he couldn't suppress it.

"Xiaoxiao, why are you still here?"

Gu Xiaoxiao looked at Murong Jingyan's twitching mouth with a puzzled look on her face, "Mother asked Xiaoxiao to stay, Xiaoxiao is not here, where is Xiaoxiao?"

Hearing this, Murong Jingyan's eyes became even brighter.

"You...you mean..."

"Mother said she had something to do and had to go back to the County Lord's Mansion, so she left the palace first.

She is worried that Uncle Jing, you won't take your medicine properly, so she wants Xiaoxiao to supervise you."

Murong Jingyan could no longer hear what Gu Xiaoxiao said next.

His mind was full of it at this moment.

County Princess's Mansion.

She went back to the county lord's mansion.

I had a vague guess in my mind.

Murong Jingyan no longer hesitated.

He cooperated extremely well with rest for three consecutive days.

until the fourth day.

He hadn't seen Shen Muxi come back for a long time.

Finally couldn't sit still.

Ignoring He Hong and He Xuan's persuasion, he asked the palace servants to carry him straight to the county lord's mansion.

In my memory from my previous life, there was a pear tree planted in the yard where Shen Muxi lived.

Murong Jingyan rushed over there without hesitation.

as predicted.

In the deserted courtyard with a pear tree, two tablets were placed neatly.

The two tablets were inscribed with the names of "Shen Xi" and "Gong Shi" respectively. In front of the tablets were not only fruits and vegetables for worship, but also eternal lamps.
