Chapter 364 Strange Events 1

Su Tingwan never dreamed that her body could be carried around after she died. When she saw the face of the person carrying her, she was so frightened that she patted her chest. It was a prince of the Hu tribe. This person was so ugly, big and burly, with wrinkled skin and a full beard. Why was he carrying her?

"Hey, put me down!" Su Tingwan shouted desperately.

No matter how she called out, the prince seemed not to hear her, and he even skillfully escaped from inside the palace to outside. She wondered how this person was so familiar with the layout of the palace.

Just then, a lithe black figure suddenly appeared in the night sky. The person was completely wrapped in a black cloak and held a long sword directly to the prince's head. "Who are you people? How did you get out from the direction of the palace?"

The prince had been stabbed in the abdomen, and the gaping wound had already left him weak. When he heard the voice, which belonged to a woman and whose face was covered, he immediately begged for mercy, "Heroine, spare my life! We are not bad people."

The woman said coldly, "If you're not a bad person, then are you a good person? Humph, I don't think you're a good person at all. Tell me honestly, who are you?"

"She is my wife. She is seriously injured and her life is in danger. I need to find a doctor to save her."

The woman glanced at the woman he was holding in his arms and felt a sense of familiarity. Wait, she looked again and even took out a tinderbox to examine her closely. How could it be Su Tingwan?

Her eyes were cold, and the sword in her hand was almost drawn; killing her would end everything.

Wife? When did Su Tingwan become someone else's wife? Besides, the man in front of her was big and burly, and he didn't look like a person from the Great Zhou Dynasty at all.

Lin Yu remained calm. She had just returned from the border region after dealing with the border affairs. Su Xuan was planning a rebellion, and she was still worried about Jiang Fenghua being alone without any help, especially since she had been plotting for nearly ten years.

So when she arrived at the side gate of the palace, she encountered the two men acting suspiciously.

Her mind raced, but who was this man? Why was he coming out of the palace dressed in the style of a soldier?

She said, "I know where there are doctors. Come with me, and I'll take you there."

Upon hearing this, the man exclaimed happily, "Is the heroine willing to help us?"

"This heroine has always enjoyed helping others and standing up for the weak, and hates those who bully the weak the most." I'd like to see who you are and why you would say that Su Tingwan is your wife.

He certainly couldn't say that he was an accomplice in the Su family's rebellion, and besides, he wasn't an accomplice. He had only found a corpse to bring back to life in a moment of desperation, and unexpectedly, it actually came back to life. It was bizarre, really bizarre.

He was obsessed with something, which is why he didn't reincarnate and stayed by Wanwan's side. But he couldn't touch her, couldn't see her, and couldn't help her. He could only watch her be sad and heartbroken for him every day.

It turns out that everything they experienced in their previous life was real, and even after she became empress, they were still together.

He had wronged her, blinded by the riches and glory before him. In this life, Wanwan loved him, Ji Chen, until her death. She didn't love imperial power, only Ji Chen. To have her cherish him so much, his death was worthwhile.

Ji Chen didn't know that in her past life, Su Tingwan was only with him because she was deceived by him. She was lonely in the deep palace and couldn't hold on to her love. In this life, she was only grateful for the warmth he had given her. Whenever Su Tingwan felt wronged, he was just a warm memory she would occasionally think of. It had nothing to do with love.

In their previous life, they used each other for warmth; in this life, they are entangled together again due to various misunderstandings.

Ji Chen was determined to survive and save her, to leave the palace. He wanted to elope with her and live a happy life together. Because they often dated in their previous life, he knew which path to take to avoid the guards. At this moment, the palace was in chaos, and he didn't know what it had become. Let them fight if they wanted to. Even if they fought to the death, it would all be for nothing in the end.

Lin Yu took them to a clinic and instructed the doctor to treat the patients first.

After examining him, the doctor shook his head. "His pulse is weak; he can't be saved. Prepare for the worst!"

Ji Chen pleaded, "Doctor, please save my wife! Please, she can't die."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu thought, "Has this man lost his mind?! Is there really anyone in this world who is so infatuated with a woman like Su Tingwan, even calling her 'wife'? How desperate is he for a wife?! Or how many men has Su Tingwan been married to?!"

The doctor shook his head. "He's beyond saving. He's already dead. My condolences."

Ji Chen cried out, “I finally found him. If Wanwan can’t live, what’s the point of my life? Wanwan, don’t die! I’m your sworn brother, Chen! If you die, I won’t live either. What’s the point of my life without you?”

The doctor was also moved, "Oh, how pitiful!"

Lin Yu was shocked when she heard this; the phrase "sworn brother A-Chen" stunned her.

She had personally witnessed Su Tingwan retrieve Ji Chen's body and bury it. At that time, she admired Su Tingwan's brotherly affection for Ji Chen and her willingness to collect his body. But what was the situation now?

She stared at Ji Chen, but it was clearly not Ji Chen. It was ugly, and Ji Chen had been dead for over a year, but he had crawled out of the ground and come back to life. His head had long since been separated from his body...

No, he is not Ji Chen, but why is that?

Hearing the doctor's words, Su Tingwan angrily retorted, "Who said he can't be saved? I'm still here."

The next second, she returned to her body. Her fingers twitched, but she had lost too much blood and was too weak to open her eyes.

Lin Yu kept staring at Su Tingwan. She thought she saw her move slightly, so she quickly asked the doctor to take her pulse. "Doctor, his wife doesn't seem to be dead yet. Please examine her again."

The doctor said, "Absolutely impossible, there's not even a trace of a pulse left."

To put their minds at ease, the doctor took her pulse again. At this moment, even the doctor was unsettled. "What's going on? She clearly had no pulse, so how come she has a faint pulse now?"

Lin Yu was also shocked and found it unbelievable. She quickly said, "Perhaps her husband's cries moved the heavens, and even God took pity on him, which is why his wife was allowed to live."

Lin Yu took out some silver from his pocket and handed it to the doctor, saying in a deep voice, "This girl has the character for 'slave' on her face, which means she's a deposed slave. She's probably committed some capital crime. This man doesn't look like he's from the Great Zhou Dynasty. Both of them are covered in blood. I only met them on the road and was kind enough to help them. Thinking about it now, I'm still scared. Here's some silver for the doctor, as an apology. I don't want the doctor to get into trouble, so I'll be leaving now."

Upon hearing this, the doctor was so frightened that he hurriedly shooed them away, "Oh dear, I'm just an ordinary citizen doing business. You should leave now, pretend you were never here, and go out the back door. Tonight, the city is full of soldiers. What kind of New Year is this!"

After they came out, Ji Chen helped Su Tingwan catch up, saying, "Thank you for saving us, heroine. We will definitely repay you in the future."
