It was obvious that he wanted to care for her, but because he had something on his mind, he left first after saying a few words. He felt that it wouldn’t be too late to talk about it after he returned to the capital.
On the other hand, everything went smoothly as usual. It was precisely because of this type of smooth journey that made them relax their vigilance.
"Your Majesty, we have fallen into ambush."
Zhao Qiyan walked to the front of the carriage and said with a serious expression.
Ambush? He knew that things wouldn’t go so smoothly. As the sovereign of a country, naturally, there would be many people who wished to take his life.
"The empress isn’t afraid."
He subconsciously wanted to protect Hu Xiao, but he forgot that Hu Xiao had always liked this kind of situation, so she quietly stayed by Qin Shuo’s side like a flower vase.
Even if Qin Shuo had practiced martial arts for a period of time under Zhao Qiyan’s hands, he still did not have much experience with it. Normally, he would only be able to practice a few moves under Hu Xiao, but Na Shui was only able to go easy on him at most.
The angle of this sharp sword was crafty and ruthless. It was obvious that it wanted to kill.
He quickly pulled the people to the side, and picked up the things in his hands to welcome them. This time, the people in front of him seemed to have put in a lot of effort, and the people who came to assassinate him were all experts in martial arts.
After all, Hu Xiao only had one person, so it was unavoidable for him to get injured while being attacked by several people at the same time.
He used his last breath to cut down those assassins, and then he fell down as well. freёwebnoѵel.com
Because of the arrows shooting everywhere, Qin Shuo was very clear about his current situation. He was just standing at the side, under Hu Xiao’s protection, and every single person was doing their best to protect him, but they couldn’t care less, and brought Zhao Qiyan away from the people beside them. When they walked over, Hu Xiao was already in Qin Shuo’s arms.
The present Hu Xiao was dressed in red, and even if she was injured she could not be seen. However, it was only when Qin Shuo carried Hu Xiao in her arms and her hands were stained with blood that she realized how serious her injuries were.
That was true. If he wasn’t seriously injured, he wouldn’t have fallen in front of him.
"Imperial Physician, where is the Imperial Physician?"
Thinking about how he was about to collapse, it seemed like this was the second time this person had gotten injured because of him. He stood behind Hu Xiao as if he was the same coward and was being protected by Hu Xiao.
The imperial physician, who had a frightened look on his face, stayed in the corner. After hearing Qin Shuo’s voice, he rushed over quickly and took out his skills to treat Qin Shuo.
"How is it?"
In the end, Hu Xiao stopped smiling at herself and fainted. It was just a few insignificant thieves, why was Hu Xiao so affected?
"Your Majesty, there are many injuries on Empress’s body and we do not have all of them yet. We should head to the nearest relay station as soon as possible. If we delay too long, the Empress will become more and more dangerous."
He carefully said what he said, but in his heart, he unconsciously started to admire Hu Xiao.
Without saying a word, he carried Hu Xiao up and sat on the carriage. Hu Xiao, who was in her arms, seemed to be in extreme pain.
"Empress, you have to be fine. Didn’t you say you want to regain your South Yue? If you don’t get up, how will you go back? "
The carriage moved extremely fast. Originally, it was not very far from the inn, and now that Hu Xiao was injured, those people could only wish they could drive the carriage away.
There were already soldiers rushing in to give orders, and as soon as the carriage came to a halt, they sent someone to wait at the entrance.
"The good people of Empress have good luck, nothing bad will happen to them."
Speaking of which, these were words of comfort to her as well. Just how heavy of an injury did Hu Xiao have to injure in order to cause her to frown all the way here.
No matter how angry he was, it was impossible for him to punish and protect himself. However, no one could predict what would happen in a situation like this.
He lowered his head dejectedly. He knew that he was powerless in this situation. He was powerless in this situation.
It was no wonder that the ruler of a country was like this.
Hu Xiao’s coma lasted for several more days, but bad news kept arriving from the capital, as if had to make a choice.
The official at the door had already knelt down for a long time, while Qin Shuo stood guard beside Hu Xiao’s bed for a long time.
"Your Majesty, Empress, if you’re still awake right now, you definitely won’t have such a look on your face. Moreover, the capital needs your majesty to be in charge, and our Southern Patrol has been delayed for a long time already.
Unable to endure the Minister’s exhortation, Yin Feng Feng had been blocked at the door multiple times already, and Wen Fuchen had even more so argued with Qin Shuo for who knows how many times.
He couldn’t quite accept it, but his words were filled with rejection.
"Do you think I should abandon the empress and leave at this time?"
Qin Shuo looked at Yin Fufeng helplessly. He thought that these people would never come to persuade him.
"Your Majesty, although the Empress is important, the matters of the nation are more important. Besides, isn’t the Empress trying to make the emperor value the affairs of the country?"
If the current Qin Shuo were to leave, it would naturally be an incomparably difficult matter. However, if he still did not return, those few people from the capital would definitely cause a ruckus.
It was a difficult thing to do.
"Then what do you think I should do?"
"Imperial Majesty’s affairs are of utmost importance."
Yin Fufeng looked at the childish Qin Shuo in front of him, closed his eyes, and asked while holding back his tears.
Yeah, at the moment, other than putting national affairs as the priority, he should not continue to be willful. If his entire territory was not good, how would he talk about finding the culprit and making them apologize for Hu Xiao’s predicament?
"Imperial Majesty’s affairs are of utmost importance."
"Imperial Majesty’s affairs are of utmost importance."
"Imperial Majesty’s affairs are of utmost importance."
Here we go again, the group of officials at the door started to cry out once a day, but Qin Shuo was getting more and more annoyed.
However, there was nothing he could do.
"Forget it, leave half of our Shadow Guard waiting here for the Queen’s safety. The other half, follow me into the palace."
Even the imperial physician was unable to figure out why Hu Xiao was still unconscious. In fact, even if Qin Shuo was dissatisfied with all of this, he could only have Hu Xiao stay behind.
Zhao Qiyan went to receive orders after receiving the news. The group of ministers who were outside the door also cried tears of joy upon hearing the news.
Everyone was happy that Qin Shuo had gotten back on track, but the palace maid Eunuch beside Hu Xiao made their hearts turn cold.
They were very clear about what the Empress did for the Emperor that day, but now, after being heavily injured and unconscious, she was actually abandoned like that.
