When she was little, Mai Zizi's cousin insisted on coming to Phoenix Pavilion to play, and Mai Zizi had no choice but to agree at the request of her elders.
But her cousin was very cunning. On the surface, she was very nice to Mai Zizi and took good care of her, but behind her back, she always tripped her up and bullied her.
Once, Mai Zizi got angry and fought with her cousin. As a result, her cousin pushed her into the pond, but then blamed her for bullying her.
After Shen Xi learned about this, she went to confront her cousin. Naturally, her cousin was no match for Shen Xi, but she was accompanied by two guards.
At that time, Shen Xi was only about ten years old. How could he possibly defeat two guards? But he rushed at them like a madman and fought them to the death.
Seeing that Shen Xi was just a powerless and insignificant disciple, the guards beat him mercilessly, leaving him covered in blood.
When Mai Zizi arrived, she was so frightened that she cried. Shen Xi was spitting blood while trying to comfort Mai Zizi.
That was the worst state Mai Zizi had ever seen Shen Xi in, but Shen Xi didn't cry.
Why are you crying now?
Mai Zizi found it strange, but her thoughts quickly wandered off course.
Fortunately, Brother Qianxue beat those bad guys up badly and drove them all away, never to set foot in Phoenix Pavilion again.
By the way, where's Brother Qianxue? I haven't seen him.
Wait, that's not right. Didn't I go to find Su Jin?
How did I get back to my room in Phoenix Pavilion?
Mai Zizi was filled with question marks!
Two days later, Mai Zizi was finally able to speak. Before she could ask what had happened, Lu Ming asked her first.
What exactly happened after you left Liuxiang Town?
Mai Zizi frowned in surprise. "I don't know either. I was supposed to go to Tianyang City to find Su Jin, but I felt a little drowsy that day and then I fell asleep..."
Shen Xi asked nervously, "And then what? Have you seen Su Jinxia?"
Mai Zizi looked at Chen Xi strangely, "No, then when I woke up I saw you calling my name. What happened? Why did I return to Phoenix Pavilion?"
Lu Ming and Shen Xi exchanged a glance, their eyes showing a hint of disappointment. Lu Ming sighed, "It seems that the other party never actually woke Zi Zi up."
So Mai Zizi knew nothing. The only thing her words could prove was that the woman in yellow who jumped off the cliff was not Mai Zizi, but Nie Qingyi, as Su Jinxia had mentioned.
Su Jin was not lying.
Mai Zizi shook Chen Xi's arm, "What exactly happened? Tell me quickly!"
Shen Xi had no choice but to tell Mai Zizi the whole story.
"You said I was seriously injured, almost died, and was in a coma for over a year?"
Shen Xi nodded.
"You're blaming all my injuries on Su Jinxia!"
Shen Xi continued to nod.
Mai Zizi angrily punched Chen Xi, "How could this be? Is your brain made of grass? How could Su Jinxia possibly kill me!"
Shen Xi hurriedly explained, "No, it's just that the situation at the time made it seem like she killed you, but we've already investigated, and it wasn't her. We just haven't found out who was behind it yet."
When asked about the person behind the scenes, Mai Zizi didn't know either.
"Where is Su Jinxia? I need to go find her." Mai Zizi pouted, looking worried. Su Jinxia had suffered such a great injustice; she was bound to be angry.
Shen Xi quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, she's leading troops in battle right now, she's far away from us, and we're enemies, so it's not appropriate to go looking for her openly."
Shen Xi didn't dare tell Mai Zizi about Su Jin's act of bleeding to save her, otherwise Mai Zizi definitely wouldn't have waited a moment longer!
Mai Zizi muttered, "They're hostile to you, not to me."
Mai Zizi and Shen Xi talked for a long time before she finally understood the current state of the world, what had happened during her year-long coma, Su Jin's purpose, her physical condition, and so on.
Seeing this, Lu Ming withdrew.
With Mai Zizi's matter resolved, it's Su Jin's turn next.
What exactly is the Glass Gu Mother, and why does it possess such powerful strength, constantly making Lu Ming uneasy?
Lu Ming arranged all the medicines that Mai Zizi would need afterward, gave instructions to his servant, and then went to Leien Temple alone.
Shen Xi quickly relayed the news of Mai Zizi waking up to Shen Qianxue.
——
The Ji Army's main camp.
Upon receiving the letter, Qu Yi immediately presented it to Shen Qianxue.
The letter reported that Maizizi had woken up safely, as well as her experience at the time, and included a portrait of the driver.
At the time, Shen Qianxue also paid attention to the driver who drove Mai Zizi, but the driver was too ordinary, and no one remembered what he looked like or where he went. The investigation eventually came to nothing.
This portrait of the rickshaw driver was drawn by Mai Zizi based on her memory. His face doesn't have any special features, but he has a black mole on his palm, which is quite unusual.
In addition, Shen Xi told Shen Qianxue about Su Jin's bloodletting treatment of Mai Zizi over the past six months, and asked for punishment for concealing it.
What moved Shen Qianxue the most was Su Jin's act of drawing blood.
Over the past year, Shen Qianxue felt that his heart condition was more serious than Zhou Ji's.
Just thinking about Su Jinxia makes my heart ache terribly.
Shen Qianxue and Su Jin had only spent a few months together, but they had been separated for almost two years.
She suffered such injustice, yet she resented herself?
Does she still think of herself?
With so many outstanding people and so many suitors around her, has she ever fallen for anyone?
These problems tormented Shen Qianxue's mind every day...
After a long while, Shen Qianxue put the letter away and handed the portrait to Qu Yi, saying, "Find the coachman from back then based on this person's characteristics."
"Yes!" Qu Yi accepted the order.
Shen Qianxue got up, left the room, and went to the city lord's mansion in Jicheng.
