Chapter 323 Don’t Die…

"If I ascend the throne, I can guarantee your safety. Your thoughts..."

“We’ll do it together.”

"We will join hands to build a new dynasty, one that is different from the past, where the people can have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear, and women can go to school and enter the court."

"I am of legitimate royal blood, and I can silence the gossips of the world."

"If you support Shang Xi, I'm afraid that even the noble families won't be able to stop talking about it."

Xiao Ning said: "Don't worry about that, I will make the decision myself."

After saying that, she raised her foot and walked towards a higher place.

Touched the gilded dragon throne.

I still don't understand why so many people are fighting for this chair, even at the cost of bloodshed and the destruction of their families.

At this moment, Shang Xi ordered Xu Chong and others: "Don't leave anyone behind."

Having said that, we must also lift our feet and walk towards that height to follow his light.

Upon seeing this, Prime Minister Chen gritted his teeth, raised his hand and released the crossbow arrow that had been treasured for a long time.

It happened in the blink of an eye!

A crossbow arrow shot straight at the second prince, blowing him in the head.

The second prince groaned in pain and fell straight to the ground.

Shang Xi turned around and saw Prime Minister Shen moving his raised wrist towards him.

His pupils constricted, and without time to think, he raised his hand and pulled the trigger.

The only thing he was thinking in his heart was that even if he died, he would take the old man Shen Shulan with him.

"don't want--"

“Puff——”

The crossbow arrow penetrated the flesh, making a dull sound.

"I know what you mean!"

Chen Xiang's sharp and painful cries almost pierced everyone's eardrums.

Xu Chong and others quickly subdued Chen Xiang.

Shang Xi stared at Shen Zhiyi blankly.

There was a crossbow arrow stuck in his left chest and another in his right chest, and both arrows almost pierced through his body.

Shen Zhiyi was on the verge of collapse, stumbling forward and falling.

Shang Xi subconsciously raised his hand and supported him.

But he pressed her down and made her kneel on the ground.

He supported Shen Zhiyi and subconsciously used his hands to stop the blood gushing out of his chest, but he couldn't stop it at all.

Blood seeped through his fingers and flowed out.

"Don't die, don't die..."

When the second prince fell to the ground, Xiao Ning heard a noise and turned around, only to see Prime Minister Chen and Shang Xi pulling the strings of their sleeves at the same time.

Xiao Ning subconsciously rushed down the platform, but it was obviously too late...

At the critical moment, he saw Shen Zhiyi standing in front of Shang Xi.

The crossbow arrow shot by Shang Xi pierced his chest.

The crossbow arrow shot by Chen Xiang pierced his back.

One on the left and one on the right, penetrating his body.

At that moment, she felt inexplicably relieved.

But what followed was overwhelming sadness and pain.

Overwhelmed by intense emotion, she fell to her knees.

Big tears rolled down her eyes.

She gradually lost control of this body.

Xiao Ning watched Shang Xi helplessly covering Shen Zhiyi's wound and shouted, "Don't die..."

She wanted to call for a doctor, but she couldn't move or open her mouth.

I could only feel my heart beating violently, almost exploding.

“Shen Zhiyi…”

“Shen Zhiyi…”

She didn't speak, but her mouth made a sound.

Xiao Ning understood instantly.

She was replaced by the original owner.

The original owner almost staggered to his feet, and came to Shen Zhiyi's side with three falls in one step.

She heard Shen Zhiyi say: "This life, I'll give it back to you..."

"From now on, I am free..."

Shang Xi shook his head. "I don't blame you anymore. I don't blame you anymore. Please don't die. Please don't die..."

He pressed the wound helplessly, but couldn't stop the bleeding.

“Shen Zhiyi, don’t die…”

The original owner knelt down beside him, tears falling like pearls from a broken string.

Thinking of something, she hurriedly said, "Quick, quick, call the imperial physician! What are you still standing there for? Go!"

After that, someone responded and left.

Shen Zhiyi turned his head with difficulty, looked at the original owner, and forced a smile on his face.

"I didn't expect... that you would cry for me..."

"Don't cry, I want to see you smile..."

The original owner tried hard to move the corners of his lips, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying.

Shen Zhiyi raised his hand and tentatively touched Xiao Ning's face.

Help her wipe her tears.

"Don't cry..."

"Treat him well in this life."

"In the next life, in the next life, could you please... consider me?"

The original owner held his hand, tears streaming down her face.

"No, don't die..."

Shen Zhiyi said: "It seems, impossible..."

He can no longer see clearly...

He could no longer see the face of the person in front of him who was weeping for him.

He could only feel her tears hitting his face.

Hot, salty...

"In the next life, in the next life...promise me, okay..."

The original owner cried and said, "I promise you, I promise you..."

As soon as these words were spoken, Shang Xi's hand on Shen Zhiyi's chest stopped, and he looked up blankly at Xiao Ning.

I saw her face full of tears.

He had never seen her cry like this for anyone...

First, he was upset because of Shen Zhiyi's injury, and then he heard the person he loved say such words to Shen Zhiyi...

She cried sincerely, and it didn't sound like she was lying at all.

Shang Xi only felt a fishy and sweet taste in his throat.

Shen Zhiyi laughed.

"To have you send me off with tears, I have no regrets in this life..."

Shen Zhiyi's anger gradually faded.

His voice became softer and softer, but he still tried to say: "Xiao Ning, I like you..."

"I love it..."

"You are as free as the wind and as warm as the sunshine. I can't help but want to be close to you..."

As he spoke, large mouthfuls of blood gushed out of his mouth.

His hand, which was held by the original owner and touched her face, finally fell powerlessly...

The original owner held Shen Zhiyi’s falling hand.

She held his hand, rested her forehead on the back of his hand, and cried even louder.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”

"It's all my fault. I couldn't let you see the person you wanted to see the most for the last time..."

"sorry……"

"But I didn't mean to do that. I didn't mean to do that..."

"I don't want to come out, I don't want to..."

"But I can't control it..."

"sorry……"

"I'm sorry..."

The original owner suddenly fell into Shen Zhiyi's arms.

Xiao Ning also lost consciousness.

"Aning!"

Shang Xi shouted.

He helped Xiao Ning up, and at that moment Xu Chong rushed into the hall carrying the imperial physician.

"Doctor, come and see her!"

Shang Xi shouted.

When Xu Chong saw Xiao Ning unconscious, he immediately rushed to Xiao Ning with the imperial physician on his back.

After the imperial physician came down from the ground, he took a look at the situation in the palace and felt terrified.

He didn't dare to say more, and with trembling hands, he took Xiao Ning's pulse.

After a moment, he said, "This... General is fine. He just fainted due to a moment of great sorrow and regret. He will wake up on his own after a while..."

Shang Xi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the imperial physician say that Xiao Ning was fine.

At the same time, I also felt great sorrow and regret, and my heart ached.

So, Xiao Ning still loves Chen Zhiyi...

And he killed Shen Zhiyi.

Was she wondering at some point just now why he wasn't the one who died?

The fishy taste in Shang Xi's throat became stronger.

He said to the imperial physician, "Doctor, please take another look at him. Is there any hope of saving him?"
