Chapter 220: I Don’t Want a Brother Like This
There was no varnish in the wooden barrel brought by the Silver Dragon Guard.
Li Tianzhuo asked them to fill it with ordinary sake, which can also burn, but its power is far less than that of lacquer.
The reason for doing this is to scare these Nanxin soldiers.
Li Tianzhuo knew their numbers and strength best.
"You can ask us not to light the fire, just let us go."
"As long as we stay far away, we will naturally not do such a thing that hurts the enemy by a thousand and hurts ourselves by eight hundred."
Li Tianzhuo said as a matter of course.
King Yi thought about the pros and cons of the matter and let them go with gritted teeth.
Under the escort of Li Tianzhuo and the Silver Dragon Guards, Deng Youning escaped from the encirclement of Nan Xin's private soldiers.
Her body was covered with wounds, there was a bloody hole in her abdomen, and her feet seemed a little tilted.
Li Tianzhuo didn't know what she had experienced that day, but he knew she must be very tired now, so tired that she didn't want to talk.
He picked up Deng Youning and carried her horizontally, then ran quickly towards his villa.
When the Silver Dragon Guards arrived, they happened to run into the Queen Mother and Jun Wenying and the other three who had already escaped.
Fortunately, everything went well for them and they are already resting at the farm.
"Xiu Ming, go to the Deng family and inform the palace."
"Also, let His Majesty come over and show Ning Ning in person."
When Jun Chenyi was still the Ninth Prince, he was their "royal" physician. Now that he is the emperor, it would be a bit of an offense to the majesty of heaven to trouble him to treat everyone's illnesses.
But there's nothing he can do about it, because his medical skills are the best in the whole capital!
"Ningning, how are you?"
"If it hurts you, don't bite your tongue, bite me!"
Li Tianzhuo knew that Deng Youning must be in great pain now.
He called a few maids and wanted to change her clothes, but the clothes were stuck to the wound, and if they were taken off, the wound would be pulled and blood would ooze out.
The other wounds were fine, but the knife wound on the abdomen seemed to be bleeding uncontrollably.
Wound medicine and hemostatic medicine are of no use.
Deng Youning's breathing became weaker and weaker.
She is now struggling on the brink of death.
"Ningning, Ningning, wake up. No matter how much pain it hurts, you have to stay awake. You can't sleep. You must not sleep!"
Li Tianzhuo saw that she had closed her eyes, and he felt scared and anxious.
He held her hand tightly, his eyes filled with tears that were about to burst out in the next second.
"I'm not sleeping, I'm just tired."
"When we went to Fahua Temple this morning, King Yi sent the Blood Moon Sect's senior brother to poison our horses, and then he killed the driver and his followers silently."
"It was a close call. We almost fell off the cliff with that crazy horse."
"I finally reached the Fahua Temple before the sun set, but because of that damn Wuyuan..."
"Oh, right, the abbot was also killed by them, as well as many monks..."
Deng Youning muttered on and on about what had happened today.
If she continued talking, Li Tianzhuo's heart would almost break.
"Jiang Yuan, send someone to investigate. I want to know what the Queen Mother, the Princess, and the County Lord experienced today?!"
He glanced at Jiang Yuan beside him and gave the order.
"yes."
Jiang Yuan took the order and left.
"Azhuo, we are fine and alive."
"Don't you say that King Yi is the kindest person? How could he have the heart to kill so many monks?"
Deng Youning had heard Li Tianzhuo introduce the princes of Nanxin to her before, so she naturally knew something about them.
At first, she didn't suspect King Yi.
When Li Tianzhuo heard her mention King Yi, he pounded the wooden edge of the bed with his clenched fist.
But soon, he realized that something was wrong.
Why is King Yi so hostile towards Ningning?
Logically speaking, Ningning helped him get rid of King Sang and King Si. Even if he didn't regard Ningning as an ally, he wouldn't want to kill her directly?
Li Tianzhuo felt something strange.
The King Yi that I saw tonight was like a puppet controlled by another person.
She had changed so much that he almost didn't recognize her.
"Sir, the Emperor and the Duke of Zhenguo have arrived."
The guard at the door reminded loudly.
When Li Tianzhuo stood up to make room for him, Jun Chenyi and Deng Ren had already walked in.
Following behind them were Li Qinghuan and Ying Shi.
Seeing Deng Youning injured like this, everyone's eyes seemed to be on fire.
"What happened?"
Deng Ren asked angrily.
Isn’t it just to burn some incense?
Now that Jun Wenci and all the people of the Wu family are dead, who else can harm Ning girl except the people of Nanxin?
"My Lord, Your Majesty, please treat the young lady's wound first."
"She must be in so much pain."
Yingshi had already moved to the bedside.
There were a lot of things going on in the mansion during this period, and Ying Shi rarely followed Deng Youning when she went out. Unexpectedly, something really happened.
She was almost blaming herself to death.
If I had been there at the time, I could at least have helped her master block the knife.
Jun Chenyi didn't waste any more time and started treating Deng Youning.
The others pushed aside behind the beaded curtain, and the servants from the villa came to serve tea to Deng Ren. Li Tianzhuo also briefly told him what he knew.
In less than a moment, Jun Chenyi came out angrily, pointing at Li Tianzhuo and questioning:
"How did she get hurt like this?"
"Did you know that in addition to the knife wound on her stomach and countless scratches and abrasions all over her body, her ankle bone is broken!"
While he was treating her, Ying Shi and the maids helped check her wounds and changed Deng Youning into clean clothes.
The injuries on her body were already very serious, but when Jun Chenyi saw her ankle, his face turned dark.
With such severe bone fractures, even my master would find it difficult to save him.
"Ankle?"
"She didn't say it herself!"
Li Tianzhuo rushed in quickly, just as Deng Youning's feet were still exposed outside the quilt.
Her ankle was swollen and red and purple.
Because her ankle was blocked, blood circulation was cut off in her entire foot, making it look bloodless and pale to the point of being scary.
"It's all my fault that she was killed!"
Li Tianzhuo wanted to kill King Yi.
It’s better not to have a brother like this.
Just now, when he and Deng Ren were talking about what happened to Deng Youning and the Queen Mother today, Jun Chenyi also vaguely heard some of it.
He guessed that Deng Youning's injury was most likely related to King Yi.
He also wanted to kill King Yi to avenge his cousin, but given the current situation, he really couldn't cause too much trouble with Nan Xin.
"I heard from my master that there is a Gongyang family in Nanxin, whose ancestors have passed down a method of curing injuries from falls."
"Medicine King Valley has sent people to try to get that method many times, but they have returned empty-handed and suffered heavy casualties."
"The people of the Gongyang family are strange. Saving people depends on the opportunities they have determined. It's not easy to do."
"But if you want Ningning to recover completely, I'm afraid this is the only way."
Jun Chenyi sighed helplessly.
He can treat other things, but he is really not good at this kind of injuries.
He could only temporarily give Deng Youning some strong medicine so that she could walk normally, but if she wanted to restore her previous appearance, she had to go find this miraculous doctor named Gongyang.
"This is my way, and it should also be my master's way."
"It's almost impossible to cure her in our Dongji."
"Tianzhuo, Uncle Deng, you all need to be prepared."
After Jun Chenyi left these words, he went out to write a prescription.
