章 61: Even in the same city, we're far away
An Jinxiu did not hang her arm or cut it, as expected. Emperor Shizong rushed into the guest room and saw An Jinxiu sitting on the bed wrapped in a blanket.
After the Emperor felt reassured, he turned around and said "Who let you in?" and ordered the eunuchs that came with him, "Scram!"
The four young eunuchs did not want to receive the Emperor's retribution, so after being scolded, they immediately retreated, trembling with fear.
"Your Majesty," When the young eunuchs was dismissed by the Emperor, he heard An Jinxiu call out to him from behind. When he turned around, she was already kneeling on the ground.
"Stand up." Emperor Shizong took a few steps forward and picked up An Jin.
An Jin seemed to have no bones as she sat in the Emperor Shizong's embrace. She didn't know where to put her hands and feet.
Seeing the embarrassed look on the young girl's face, Emperor Shizong couldn't help but laugh. "How many times have I picked up you today?"
An Jin shook her head. She stared at the wall in front of her, not even sparing a glance at the Emperor.
The Emperor placed An Jinxiu on the bed and asked, "Are you ashamed?"
An Jinxiu hung her head even lower and held her clothes in her hands, not speaking a word.
The Emperor Shizong used his hands to adjust An Jin's loose hair. The little girl had already been washed, but she didn't wear any new clothes. She was still wearing a light green dress that was soaked wet. "Did I really not injure you?" "Tell me the truth," Emperor Shizong asked An Jin.
An Jinxiu quickly shook her head.
"Then you should eat something first." Emperor Shizong still hadn't thought of how to tell An Jinxiu about her son, Ping An. He had expected this little girl to cry so much that he felt it would be better to let her eat something first.
An Jinxiu still shook her head. She raised her head and asked, "His Majesty said he would protect concubine?"
Emperor Shizong said, "I'm not joking."
An Jinxiu mumbled, "The general is a good man, but what about my son?"
After sighing, he said, "There's been a fire in the old alleyway south of the city." Sensing that her body had stiffened, the Emperor held on tighter, "Your Ping An is no longer with us."
"No, he's not?"
"He is just a child, how can he escape the sea of fire?" With the idea that she would suffer more if he didn't reveal everything in one breath, Shizong told An Jinxiu, "Other than Shangguan Yong who was away, all the Shangguan family members are dead."
As she listened to the Emperor report their grievous news, An Jin's heart was sliced open by the blunt blade again. However, facing the Emperor, how could she reveal her true sorrow? She bit the tip of her tongue. At this moment, what she wanted was not sadness, but the pity of the Emperor .
However, after waiting for a while, the person in his arms didn't make a sound. When Emperor Shizong looked down, he saw blood trickling down from the corner of An Jin's mouth. This little girl's face was already pale and unconscious. Ah Jin? " The Emperor Shizong used his hands to pry open An Jinxiu's mouth, but the blood that flowed out from it instantly which dyed his hand red.
"Someone, call a doctor!" Emperor Shizong shouted at the door of the guest room.
A young eunuch outside the guest room replied and quickly ran away.
The Emperor Shizong placed his hand into An Jin's mouth and used his fingers to block the wound on her tongue." "You actually dared to bite your tongue in my embrace?" Emperor Shizong roared at the unconscious An Jinxiu, "If a son dies, I can give you a son. Do you really not believe that I will protect you?!"
"Son?" An Jin's heart skipped a beat as a thought appeared in her mind. The corner of her blood-soaked mouth curled up slightly. After which, there was only dead silence on her pale face.
Imperial Physician Xiang and Rong dismounted from their horses in front of the An Mansion. Seeing the messenger who came to deliver them, the eunuchs under Eunuch Xie's command didn't dare delay any longer. They rode their horses all the way here.
As the two eunuchs who had been sent to the doctor on orders from the Emperor ran out of the hall, they happened to see the two imperial physicians who had just dismounted from their horses.
The two eunuchs rushed to the two imperial physicians, Xiang and Rong, and urgently said, "Milords, quickly follow this servant to see His Majesty."
The two imperial physicians didn't know what was going on in the main hall. As they followed the eunuch to the guest room, they asked, "Who was it that met with mishap?"
"Your Majesty is in the room. This servant doesn't know what happened," the eunuch who was personally trained by Eunuch Xie spoke carefully and meticulously.
"Hurry over here," the Emperor didn't expect the two to arrive at this moment. He didn't have much time to ask, so he didn't wait for the two imperial physicians to bow to him before saying, "She hurt her tongue. You guys come over to see her!"
The emperor was holding a woman in an ordinary woman's dress in the imperial hall. This matter was enough for the two imperial physicians to thoroughly consider. When they saw that the woman's wounds were caused by a forceful bite, the two imperial physicians didn't dare think of anything else.
"How is she?" When the two imperial physicians were treating An Jinxiu's wounds, the Emperor didn't let go of her and asked the two imperial physicians this question.
"In reply to Your Majesty," Among the two imperial physicians, one of them, Xiang Yuan Qing, "The wound on her tongue isn't deep, so it's possible that she doesn't have much strength," he replied. It could also be that this woman had hurt herself, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
This little girl was not only happy that she was under his protection, but also panicked and had suffered the pain of losing her son. A man couldn't even bear the pain, let alone a weak girl like An Jinxiu.
"Your Majesty," Xiang Yuanqing asked, "Should we start the treatment for her?"
"What does this Emperor want you to do if not treat her?" Emperor Shizong asked.
Xiang Yuanqing quickly opened his own medicine chest and took out a set of medical instruments and medicine. With the help of Rong Shuang, he focused on treating An Jinxiu's wounds.
It was only when blood stopped flowing out of An Jin's mouth that Emperor Shizong finally had the mood to ask the two of them, "Who asked you to come?"
Rongshuang quickly said, "Isn't it His Majesty?"
"I did not announce you."
"Then," A hint of hesitation flashed across Rong Shuang's beadless face. "Your Majesty, the eunuch who called this subject here is one of the eunuchs by Eunuch Xie's side."
This servant really thinks for me. Should I keep such a useful servant or not? The Emperor Shizong caressed An Jin's hair as he weighed the pros and cons in his heart.
When a strand of silk wrapped itself around his pulse, An Jinxiu knew that she had to wake up. To the imperial physicians, feigning unconsciousness was just a childish trick. She opened her eyes slightly and let out an unbearably painful moan.
"I am here." Seeing that An Jinxiu had woken up, the Emperor quickly hugged her and whispered, "It's fine. Nothing happened. Don't think about anything. I will take care of everything."
An Jinxiu opened and closed her eyes, as if she was powerless to open them. However, her tears flowed out from the corners of her eyes like beads with broken strings.
"Don't cry, if you cry anymore … your eyes will tear apart," the Emperor gentle tone unconsciously frightened the two imperial physicians quite a bit, and their movements became even more cautious.
After hearing what the Emperor said, An Jinxiu cried even harder. What was the point of using a gentle tone? Shizong was not Shangguan Yong. At this time, she missed Shangguan Yong and wanted to catch a glimpse of this man beside her. She wanted Shangguan Yong to tell her that they still had a way to go in the future, so she wouldn't despair so much and lose sight of her future path.
Shangguan Yong, who was being remembered by An Jinxiu, was not far from her at this time. They were both in the same city, one believing that their family was gone, the other alone, that they would never meet again.
When Shangguan Yong returned to the inn, Qing Nan and the rest of them were standing at the entrance, staring at the two ends of the street, waiting for him to return.
"Eldest brother." Qing Nan looked at Shangguan Yong who was surrounded by them and sitting down in the room, his eyes red. It was obvious that he had cried bitterly, and his face was ugly as well, but his expression was calm, so calm that it frightened Qing Nan and the others.
"Why did you come?" Shangguan Yong asked his brothers.
"Sister-in-law," Qing Nan wanted to comfort her elder brother, but how could men like them who joined the army speak words of comfort? He had a huge scar on his head. 18 years later, he would be a good man again. If anyone could say that out loud now, they would truly be bastards.
"Tell me how you came here," Shangguan Yong didn't need anyone to comfort him. His family was gone, and he wouldn't die with them. If he didn't take revenge, then even if he went to the underworld, what face would he have to see his own wife and siblings?
"General Zhou told us to come," after they sat down around Shangguan Yong, Qing Nan said, "We were too late. When we returned, the city gate was already closed, we had to look for a brother of ours at the city gate before we managed to sneak in."
After saying this, Qing Nan stomped his feet and said, "I didn't expect that when we came in, we heard that there was a fire in the old alleyway in the south of the city. By the time we got there, it was already too late."
Shangguan Yong said: "The Great General knows that something will happen to me?"
"It was Big Brother who led us to attack the Mansion of the Duke of messenger king," a brother sitting beside Qing Nan said, "After Big Brother followed orders to return to the capital, that Marquis Xiang Xi went crazy! Putting aside finding trouble with the great general Zhou every day, he had brought along his men to tear down the entire Residence of Duke Xin!
"The great general said that Marquis Xiang Xi must have been looking for something important. He was afraid that the bastard might suspect you, big brother, so he ordered us to chase after you."
"Big brother, what are you going to do next?" Qing Nan asked, "What are you planning to do? We brothers will help you."
"I want to see His Majesty." Shangguan Yong only thought at this time of giving the Emperor the King of Letters' registrar list. Without his family, the empress and Crown Prince would not remain unscathed. At this time, Shangguan Yong no longer had his reverence towards the Imperial Family, the person who had killed his family was his mortal enemy.
"Then we'll go with big brother!"
"That's right. If you dare to drag the emperor down with you, we'll go together!"
… ….
"Shut up!" Qing Nan silenced all the brothers who wanted to go with Shangguan Yong. "Do you think this is the pass where we run horses to fight? If you can't help, then don't cause trouble! "
"What do you mean, don't celebrate or not die?" After being scolded by Qing Nan, some of the brothers immediately became angry, "If you have the ability, then tell us what we should do next!"
From the moment Shangguan Yong asked him to carry away the son of the messenger king from the House of Xin, Qing Nan knew that the messenger king must have said something to his Shangguan brother. It was just that at that time, Qing Nan didn't expect that the matter regarding the messenger king would destroy Shangguan Yong's family and cause their deaths. Eldest brother, why don't we go find the Grand Preceptor, "Qing Nan said to Shangguan Yong. "Eldest sister-in-law is his daughter"
See An Shu? Shangguan Yong thought in his heart, can I trust this person?
