Chapter 598 Turning grief and anger into strength
Fortunately, after Doctor Wu took off Jiayi's clothes and checked his whole body, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's great, don't be afraid, my dear."
"Although Jiayi bled a lot, he only had this wound on his arm. The rest of the musket bullets were all blocked by the protective clothing he was wearing. This kid is lucky!" Doctor Wu said with great relief.
Jiayi also thought he was about to die, and cried so hard that he even thought of a will for his wife.
Hearing this, he became lively again and scratched his body.
"Oh, it's true! My wife thinks I'm fat and forced me to lose weight. I was afraid that I would lose weight too much, so I secretly put on a protective suit to look strong and intimidating when I go out. I didn't expect it to be useful for this."
Xiao Nuobao also flew over and looked at the four musket bullets on the protective suit. Tears were about to roll out, but he happily pulled them back.
"Wuwu Jiaju, you don't have to die. This is great. Protective suits can really save lives!"
The little fat girl's sadness was a little relieved at this moment.
Jiaju bandaged his arm, took the blood-replenishing prescription, and couldn't wait to kowtow to Lin Chunlai.
Mu Yihan watched over Xiao Nuobao for half a day until she could no longer bear the fatigue and curled up into a small ball and fell asleep on the couch. He gently kissed her forehead and then left Longxuan Palace and ordered people to look for all the injured people today.
Soon, Ali went to count the situation.
"There were nine people shot by Gu Yiyi, except Jia Ru."
"Among them, two died, and half of the other seven were slightly injured." Ali lowered his head reluctantly.
Mu Yihan also felt sad.
He immediately ordered, "Ali, you personally take people to comfort the victims. The court will pay a compensation of 100 taels of silver to the families of the deceased, and 50 taels of silver to each injured person, as a token of goodwill."
"As for the seriously injured, if there is no good doctor to treat them, just send them to the Imperial Hospital." Mu Yihan said decisively.
Now the capital is in an uproar, and everyone is talking about what happened on the street. The comfort and compensation given by the national teacher is a rare heartwarming thing in this grief.
The court was able to take care of the casualties and did not perfunctorily deal with it. This made the people feel reassured, knowing that behind them, there is still the powerful Nanji Kingdom!
So everyone turned their grief into strength.
All the hatred was placed on Gu Yiyi!
All the men in the market put down their work, picked up their belongings, and gathered together.
"Have you read the notice? A mere Wala woman dared to kill innocent people in our Nanji country. For the sake of our women and our children, we must not let her go!"
"Yes, catch her and cut her into pieces!"
"Find the Wala woman and avenge the dead! Find the Wala woman and avenge the dead!"
Everyone shouted in pain, their voices full of grief and hatred.
When the news reached the Imperial College, Wu Qing hurriedly checked on the students one by one. After finding out that Feng Jing had taken leave, he ran to Jiang's house to inquire. He was relieved to learn that Feng Jing was safe in the palace.
When he returned home, he wiped his sweat and told Mrs. Wu.
Mrs. Wu dropped the teacup in her hand to the ground with a bang, her eyes wide open.
"You said that at noon, someone was injured in Huaqing Lane? Nine people were killed or injured?"
She raised her voice, then turned her head in shock and looked at the little Siming who was chewing his feet.
Mrs. Wu's chest was pounding.
Around noon, she almost went to the rouge shop over there to get the new lip balm she had ordered.
But at that time, little Siming suddenly burst into tears for some reason, so she had to stay at home and take care of this little son.
Now it seems that her son's cry was so timely and life-saving...
Mrs. Wu came to her senses, hurriedly picked up the swaddling clothes, and kissed him madly with gratitude.
In the next two days, Feng stayed in the palace all the time, accompanying little Nuobao day and night.
This series of events shocked her, and now she just wanted to watch the girl like the apple of her eye, and she couldn't bear to leave for a moment.
After two days of rest, little Nuobao finally recovered and was able to jump around again.
Now she has no time for anything else, just waiting for the news to be reported to the palace so that she can collect Gu Yiyi's body!
The manor is far away from the hustle and bustle, and the village chief and his men rarely go to the city for leisure, so they didn't know about this at first. It was
n't until Fengnian came to the manor and wanted to ask Gu's widow and Cuicui to help look after the child at the water shop for a few days because the family was too busy that everyone knew what had happened.
When Old Li heard that Nuobao was almost injured, he jumped up from the bench in a hurry and wanted to go to the palace to see the child.
"What did you say? That Wala woman even fired her musket? Did our little boy get scared? Come on, I have to roast some sparrows and send them to our little boy to calm him down!" Old Li was
so anxious that his neck turned red. Fortunately, the village chief was calm and threw the smoke pot to stop him.
“Come on, you old thing. Can we just walk into the palace as we please? There are no rules. Don’t embarrass our Nuobao.”
Although the village chief was also very worried, he nodded and said, “Our sweetheart is not a timid child. As long as she is not injured, it’s okay. Don’t worry, Fengnian. I’ll let the widow Gu help with the water shop. You just stay with Nuobao.”
Old Li was panting and ran to get an axe. “Then I can’t just sit at home and let Nuobao get scared in vain. I’m going to the south of the city to catch that Wala woman and give Nuobao revenge!”
Seeing that he was leaving the village and was about to run out of two miles, the village chief caught up with him again and grabbed his collar and brought him back.
"I see you have a hard time getting on the bed, and you still want to catch someone." The village chief was so angry that he was about to smoke. "The south of the city is on the other side. Why are you walking north? You can't tell the difference between east, west, south, and north. Even if you are cured, you will still drool!"
Widow Gu and Cuicui were still nervous.
When they heard this, they laughed out loud.
Jiang Fengnian also hurried over and smiled and comforted, "Uncle Li, don't worry. Now all the capable and righteous people in the capital, as well as bandits and villains, are looking for her everywhere. She will definitely not run away." "
That's right, that's a huge reward, do you need your old body to do it?" The village chief knocked Old Li on the head, "I still hope you can live a few more years and accompany me to guard our Nuobao!"
This is true.
With so much money, there is no need for an old man.
At present, there are hundreds of people in the south of the city, searching for Gu Yiyi.
Night falls.
The moonlight shines on an abandoned temple.
Gu Yiyi is hiding behind the statue, enduring the burning pain, clenching her teeth, waiting for the footsteps outside to go away quickly.
"Boss, we don't see anyone in the temple."
"Let's go, there is a mass grave ahead, let's go there to look."
Hearing the voices gradually go away, Gu Yiyi dared to open her clenched teeth and take a deep breath, her body was soaked with pus and blood.
In the past two days, she has avoided four or five groups of people, all of whom shouted that they would cut her into pieces.
Gu Yiyi's tears kept flowing, her heart was filled with fear.
With her burned body and the revengeful Nan Ji people, she really didn't know how long she could live.
Despite her weakness, Gu Yiyi took out a piece of anti-inflammatory medicine, and when she was about to put it into her mouth, she groaned in pain.
Suddenly, there was an excited laugh.
"Haha, Boss, the woman is hiding in there, and we found her!"
