Chapter 90 Chapter 90 If you don’t wake up, I will be your most precious...
Jiang Hexue didn't know how to write a normal divorce letter.
But at least the reasons for the divorce should be clearly stated, detailing how one party has misbehaved, leading to the breakdown of the relationship and the difficulty of maintaining the marriage.
Then comes the division of property, usually 50-50.
However, the divorce agreement in her hand only briefly mentioned the reason and made no mention of the misconduct. The most clear and detailed part was the division of property after the divorce.
After a concise summary, only one sentence remains.
After the two parties divorced, all the property under Shen Qingchen's name belonged to Jiang Hexue.
Even including Heng'an Palace.
The disclaimer then detailed that after the divorce they would not interfere with each other and were free to marry.
As for the auspicious words at the end, he didn't have time to write them, so he left it blank, as if waiting for her to finish.
"This isn't a divorce agreement." Jiang Hexue crumpled the fine linen paper and rasped. "It's more of a property transfer agreement."
But it was wrinkled, and then it was carefully flattened, unwilling to wrinkle Shen Qingchen's handwriting, staring at it absentmindedly.
Staring at his signature and the bright red fingerprints in the corner.
As she stared, a tear fell, and once it started, they continued to fall one after another.
Jiang Hexue was on the verge of collapse and was supported by Xuemei. He sat down with his knees hugged, tears streaming down his face.
How could Shen Qingchen be like this?
He knew that she was going to be in danger, but he didn't tell her a word and even left her a letter of divorce.
He wanted her to take away all his property so that she could live a rich and peaceful life without being bound by her status as a princess, and live a free and unrestrained life.
Only then did Jiang Hexue understand what it meant to have a broken heart.
Her chest cavity seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton soaked in cold water, making it difficult for her to breathe. Every breath she exhaled with difficulty felt like her heart was being cut by a knife, causing her to bleed and hurt.
She thought chaotically, what about Shen Qingchen? Is he in pain?
It was clear that just a few hours ago, he had accompanied her to fold a catalpa leaf boat at Anshan Temple, and had said that he would tell her his wish the next day.
How did it become like this now...
"Princess." Xu Qingyan called her several times. She finally heard him and looked up reluctantly.
"The compass needle has stopped, but it hasn't stopped at the extreme point. Don't worry, Your Highness is blessed by fate and will definitely wake up." His voice was hoarse and difficult to speak. "If Your Highness saw you like this, he would be heartbroken."
Jiang Hexue struggled to squeeze out a "hmm", looked at the compass needle that had stopped, and then looked at the inner tent.
The strong smell of blood was so despairing. She saw the blood that the medical officer hurriedly brought out. It was red and black. It was the arrow that pierced his heart. The tip of the arrow was poisoned.
"What's going on?" she asked Xu Qingyan.
The latter detailed the current military situation and their plans for tonight, concluding with a low voice: "It shouldn't have been like this. With your skills, it wouldn't have been difficult to kill Liang Li and Jiang Tao."
"But I heard that when the reinforcements met His Highness, he only had Liang Li's head, and Jiang Tao... was captured alive."
Jiang Hexue's mind went blank for a moment.
In the midst of her chaotic thoughts, she suddenly remembered the question asked by Shen Qingchen in her dream——
"Qiong Qiong, do you want to see Jiang Tao again?"
Tears rolled down my face and could not be stopped.
-
Jiang Hexue seemed to have fainted from crying.
When I woke up again, I was in the inn. The sky outside the window was pale, and it should be just after the hour of Mao.
Her throat was dry, and she called out "Xuemei" several times with difficulty, but the person who pushed the door open was Jiang Heye.
"You still wake up." He poured her a glass of water and placed it outside the curtain in a grouchy tone. "Do you know how long you were unconscious?"
Jiang Hexue took it, drank it all, and then asked, "How long?"
"A whole day and two nights!" Jiang Heye said in fear. "Sister, are you really going to scare me to death? I..."
"How is he?" Jiang Hexue asked weakly.
"He's not awake yet." Jiang Heye was interrupted by her, and knowing that she was asking about Shen Qingchen, he said, "But there is no danger to his life, sister, don't worry."
Jiang Hexue sat up straight and wanted to change her clothes. Jiang Heye then left the inner room and continued to talk to her through the door, "I know you're grieving and terrified, but you have to take care of yourself first, right? If your brother-in-law wakes up and something happens to you, how will we explain it? How can we not feel bad?"
He muttered until his lips were covered with calluses. Jiang Hexue had also finished packing. She looked up at the young man who was much taller than her and replied softly, "I understand."
"Can I go see him?" she asked.
"Of course I can. Why not?" Jiang Heye agreed decisively, leading her towards the place. "The person was saved, but the remaining poison is hard to remove, so he hasn't woken up yet... I've been mixing many kinds of medicine these days, and I finally have some clues."
"It's just that I might need a very rare medicinal herb, and I don't know where to find it yet. Let's go to the major medical clinics in Liangzhou first, and if that doesn't work, we can go back to Kyoto. The imperial physician has also rushed here at full speed, and Old Man Shu is also here. Don't worry, sister, your brother-in-law will be fine."
While he was speaking soothingly, he had already arrived at Shen Qingchen's room.
"You can go by yourself, but you can only look from a distance." Jiang Heye dismissed the servants for her. "And don't cry."
"Stay with him for a quarter of an hour. Don't stay with him any longer. I'm afraid the environment for recuperation will be unstable and may cause further impact." He instructed.
Jiang Hexue nodded in agreement and pushed the door open quietly.
The gauze curtain was half drawn, and she could only see from afar that the young man on the couch had his eyes tightly closed and his face was calm, as if he was just fast asleep.
When it gets light, he will wake up as usual.
She couldn't help crying. She didn't even dare to look any longer. She just stood there for a quarter of an hour before giving way to the medical officer who was attending.
But Jiang Heye and Xu Qingyan reminded her again and again, and Jiang Hexue never cried as much as before.
Since Jiang Tao was captured alive, she cheered up and went to the prison to see Jiang Tao.
Since she was driven out of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion by Jiang Tao in the winter of the sixteenth year of Yongjia, it has been nearly six years since they last saw each other.
He had become much rounder and his temples were gray.
Jiang Hexue stopped in front of the cell where he was being held and called out, "Jiang Tao."
Sha Tian's voice pierced through the quiet of the prison. Jiang Tao, who was pretending to be unconscious, shuddered for a moment and looked up at the graceful girl in front of him.
"Helian Wan?" He imagined her as the Marquis's wife, his face pale with horror. "Aren't you dead? I saw you die with my own eyes..."
"I'm not my mother. I'm Jiang Hexue." Jiang Hexue had no intention or ability to tease him.
"Hexue?" A glimmer of light flashed in Jiang Tao's cloudy eyes, and his face, wrinkled by fat, revealed a kind smile. "Qiong Qiong..."
This was the first time Jiang Hexue remembered Jiang Tao calling her by her nickname.
"Qiong Qiong, please save Daddy! Daddy was forced by Liang Li. Daddy never thought of betraying Long Lin!" Jiang Tao said anxiously. "Qiong Qiong, you are the princess now, please save Daddy!"
"I'm the princess," Jiang Hexue repeated, her tone tinged with sarcasm. "Am I not a spy sent by Bei Xuan to influence the Imperial Master?"
Jiang Tao's face turned pale again, and then he said: "Daddy has told you that Liang Li forced Daddy to do it! In Daddy's heart, he loves you and He Ye the most..."
Jiang Hexue no longer sneered, and listened to his tearful begging calmly, and his heart was also calm.
Apart from that shallow layer of gratitude for giving birth to her, he had never fulfilled any of his fatherly responsibilities. Not only that, he also relentlessly tried to kill her and Jiang Heye several times.
"Jiang Hexue, I'm your father! How could you be so treasonous as to murder your own father!" Jiang Tao was so exhausted from talking that he saw she still didn't react. He tore through her innocent face and cursed her. "Unfilial son! Bastard!"
Jiang Hexue looked at him and finally curled the corners of her lips slightly.
It’s because Jiang Tao doesn’t love Helian Wan, nor does he love them.
They can act so recklessly and then turn around and scold and curse them for being unfilial in the name of their biological father.
She couldn't tell for a moment who was more hateful, Jiang Tao or Empress Dowager Su.
It was just that when Empress Dowager Su was angry, she felt sorry for Shen Qingchen, but now facing Jiang Tao, she felt that it was expected.
"I didn't need to see you again." Jiang Hexue lowered her head slightly, looking down at him. "If Zhao Hua hadn't gone to such great lengths to capture you alive, I wouldn't have come at all."
"Jiang Tao, you will regret not dying that night."
She has plenty of ways to make his life a living hell.
Let him pay the price of hurting Shen Qingchen day by day.
-
At night, Jiang Hexue got the approval of Jiang Heye and other medical officers and went to see Shen Qingchen again.
"Sister, you can stay longer now, and you can even touch your brother-in-law a little," Jiang Heye explained. "The arrow earlier grazed her heart meridian, and I used acupuncture to drive away a lot of the toxins today, so she's finally completely fine. All we have to do is wait for the remaining poison to dissipate."
"Sister, you can also talk to your brother-in-law. There are records about this in medical books. Maybe he can wake up faster." He smiled relaxedly again.
Jiang Hexue stood on tiptoe, and he bent down cooperatively, letting her touch his head.
"Go ahead." Jiang Heye yawned and smiled.
Pushing the door open quietly, Jiang Hexue imitated Shen Qingchen's previous actions, gently picked up a low stool, sat down beside the couch, and leaned over to look at him.
His usually cold and pale skin was now bloodless, his thick eyelashes drooped, and his beautifully shaped thin lips no longer had the usual light crimson color, just as lifeless as his complexion.
His face was thinner, his brow bones became more prominent, and a dark blue shadow fell on his face.
The hands hanging at his sides were exposed from the silk quilt. The red jade bracelet on his left wrist was still neatly wrapped in two circles. Due to his weight loss, it had slipped slightly to his forearm.
There was a dark red scar across his forearm, probably a knife wound. After applying medicated wine, it seemed to have healed somewhat. She didn't know when the wound occurred, nor did she know how he had hidden it from her.
They had clearly met each other openly on his birthday, but she hadn't noticed anything.
Jiang Hexue looked at Shen Qingchen quietly for a while, then blinked hard to wipe away the tears that were about to fall.
She reached out carefully and hooked her fingers around his.
"What divorce agreement? I won't sign it. I don't want you to bother with it." Jiang Hexue choked up and spoke slowly. "You promised me, 'We'll sleep together in life and death,' but if you sign it, how will that hold true?"
"I don't want your fortune. I'm not afraid of being bound by royal red tape. I just want you. I want you to wake up."
"Husband, you must wake up." She used her eyes instead of her gentle fingers to brush across his eyebrows. "Wake up early."
"I love you as much as you love me. Shu Tan said before that you wanted to die for me. I think so too."
"If you don't wake up, I will be your most precious relic."
She rested her head on his hand, her voice growing softer as she spoke.
But the young man lying quietly on the couch responded.
He moved his fingers slightly and gently held her fingers back.
