Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Was it that the child didn't want to ask for help?

Of course not. If he really didn't want to call for help, he wouldn't have run out into the street.

His eventual abandonment was perhaps simply because he realized it was futile, and no one would save them.

"So, you have connections in the government..."

Li Yinyin didn't finish her sentence, but Xiao Liu nodded: "Miss, what do you mean now?"

Li Yinyin unexpectedly recalled her sister-in-law's opposition when she went to Yunzhou City for a trip, and her brother's admonition that she should discuss everything with her brother no matter what she discovered.

Because she encountered the scene of Xi Jiangyue and Yin Hong's first meeting, she assumed it referred to the unruly young master of the government.

But today, she happened to encounter this matter and suddenly realized that perhaps what her sister-in-law was referring to was the dark side hidden beneath the bustling Yunzhou Prefecture.

Xiao Liu followed his older brother all over the country, and even fought alongside him in territories, yet he remained tight-lipped about a few minor kidnappers, revealing the unfathomable depths of the situation behind it all.

Thinking of Yin Hong, Li Yinyin couldn't help but recall what the fourth male lead in the drama had mentioned: the shadow guards, unique to the Yin family, were all orphans who underwent various training programs, and only the victors could survive and reach their master's side. The fourth male lead himself had once been one of the best shadow guards, and was transferred by Yin Hong to be a bodyguard to protect Xi Jiangyue.

Because of the difference in their social status, he was willing to always protect Xi Jiangyue, shielding her from any swords or storms, but he was also ashamed of his own status, so he never revealed a trace of his love. The fourth male lead's restrained love was once a cherished memory for many viewers, who felt that such a good man deserved a better ending.

But now that Li Yinyin knows about these dark sides, she can't help but have a huge question.

Are these shadow guards really all orphans?

Thinking of this, a familiar pain suddenly struck her, and Li Yinyin unconsciously clenched her fists, feeling no joy whatsoever.

No wonder the people of Yunzhou turn a blind eye to these dark aspects.

If it's the Yin family, then everything makes sense.

Why would Yin Hong, as the son of a great general, stay in Yunzhou, where a relative was the prefect, for so long, even for the New Year without returning to the capital to reunite with his family?

It wasn't because he loved Xi Jiangyue so much that he gave up going home for her, but because he controlled the dark side of the Yin family, he never went home in the first place. Xi Jiangyue was merely a perfect excuse for him.

Her head was throbbing more and more, but Li Yinyin felt calmer and calmer. How could someone like this be worthy of being the male lead?

Later in the story, he also gained the support of the people because he married Xi Jiangyue, a commoner who became his imperial concubine, and because of the beneficial policies he proposed with Xi Jiangyue.

That's disgusting!

Li Yinyin's aversion grew stronger, and her headache worsened.

"girl!"

The maidservant rushed forward and caught Li Yinyin as she fell backward.

Xiao Liu arrived at their side almost instantly, disregarding the difference in rank, and directly grabbed Li Yinyin's hand, pinching her tiger's mouth (the area between her thumb and forefinger).

But perhaps the stimulation was too mild, Li Yinyin did not wake up. Even when Xiao Liu had the maid pinch her philtrum, she didn't react, which frightened them, and they quickly called a doctor.

After examining her for a while, the doctor said, "Miss Li's pulse and breathing are very stable, so it doesn't seem like she has a sudden illness. I once saw a case where a person was too tired, and no matter what external stimuli there were, they couldn't be woken up. They would wake up naturally once they had had enough sleep."

Listening to the doctor's words, Xiao Liu almost blurted out the words "quack doctor." Although such cases do exist, did his daughter really look that tired?

After the cloth shop owner saw the doctor off, Xiao Liu thought of the fortune teller who was still staying at the Li residence. He immediately decided to take Li Yinyin home by carriage first. The group quickly and carefully escorted her back.

When Li Yinyin woke up, it was already the next morning. She had a good night's sleep and felt great, but thinking about what had happened before she fainted, she couldn't help but feel depressed.

She opened her eyes and looked at the familiar tent top, only to realize that she had returned home from the cloth shop without knowing when. She tried to get up, but found that she couldn't pull the blanket up.

She turned her head and saw her sister-in-law sleeping soundly beside her bed.

She guessed that her fainting must have worried her sister-in-law, so she stayed still and obediently until Yu Qiaoyun woke up on her own.

"Yinyin, you're awake," Yu Qiaoyun said, still half asleep, but she remembered to check on Li Yinyin first. When she found that she was awake, she immediately became more alert, and her eyes quickly filled with tears. "You silly child, if you were too tired, you could have just told your sister-in-law. But you were so tired that you fainted outside, which almost scared Xiao Liu and the others to death."

"Fortunately, Xiao Liu knew what was important and asked a doctor to examine you," Yu Qiaoyun said, finding it somewhat amusing. "The doctor said you were just tired and sleepy, and when he came back and mentioned it, he thought the doctor was a quack. But when the fortune teller also said you were too tired and had fallen asleep, he changed his tune and called him a miracle doctor."

Mentioning the fortune teller, Li Yinyin stirred: "Even Master was alarmed?"

Yu Qiaoyun nodded: "How can we not call him? Our apprentice went out and came back carrying people. The doctor couldn't find the cause of his illness. In this situation, we have to call him."

Following the doctor's and fortune teller's diagnosis, Li Yinyin said, "I didn't know I could be so sleepy. I was thinking about things one moment, but the next moment it was like I was disconnected and I didn't know anything."

When asked about her thoughts, Yu Qiaoyun paused for a moment, then took her hand and said, "Yinyin, Xiao Liu told me everything about this when he came back, and I also arranged for people to rescue those children and girls. But we only found the child who got lost on the street. He was beaten half to death and left in the old house, and the rest of them have disappeared without a trace."

“After we found him and had his family doctor examine him, he finally spoke up, saying that because he had run away, those people felt that the house was not safe and moved to another place.”

"We kept him because he was the most rebellious. Even after being beaten and covered in injuries, he still managed to run out into the street and be seen by others. So we simply beat him up again and left him in his original house to die. This was also to deter others who watched him escape without reporting it."

Hearing her sister-in-law's words, Li Yinyin felt indescribably sad.

She knew about it, but couldn't save them. She knew who the mastermind was, but had no power to bring him down.

Li Yinyin bit her lower lip, feeling that she had once been content with her current life, and that she was really too useless.

Fortunately, everything has changed.

“Sister-in-law,” Li Yinyin said softly, holding her hand, “we must fight our way back to Jiang Kingdom and bring all these wicked people who colluded with each other to justice, okay?”
