Xuanfeng immediately engaged in a fierce battle with the Black Hand.
Upon hearing the noise, the sentry immediately lit a torch.
Xuan Shuang, Xuan Lei, and Xuan Dian rushed over almost immediately, but their actions happened in the blink of an eye...
They were a step too late.
Ning Xi'er froze for a second, then immediately tried to pick Xie Zhun up and take him to the room for a checkup...
Even though she saved countless lives in her past life and possessed formidable physical abilities...
But it was only then that I realized that when someone you care about is in danger, you can actually feel completely drained...
Perhaps because of panic, I couldn't muster any strength.
Hearing the commotion, Wei Xunfang rushed over from a short distance and saw Xie Zhun lying on top of Ning Xi'er...
Xuanfeng was fighting someone and instinctively felt that Xie Zhun was injured.
He was immediately alarmed and ran over.
"Quick! Take it to the room!"
The commotion quickly attracted the attention of the person in charge of the courtyard.
The Duke of Huguo was a light sleeper, so Eunuch Xu immediately put on his clothes and rushed over.
By the light, Xue Xunfang finally saw the large patch of bloodstains on Xie Zhun's back, and her pupils immediately constricted.
He didn't know martial arts and wanted to help Xie Zhun.
Xuan Lei moved even faster, immediately picking Xie Zhun up horizontally in his arms.
Turning to Ning Xi'er, he asked, "Your Highness, where are we going?"
Ning Xi'er supported Xie Zhun's back and they ran together, "Back to the Prince's room, quick!"
Xuan Dian stood guard behind them, while Wei Xunfang followed behind.
Zheng Ye was fast asleep at that moment.
In my sleep, my keen ears seemed to be disturbed by external noises, and I struggled to get up...
However, his body was too heavy, his head was all muddled, and he fell back into a deep sleep.
Zheng Chengguang is also a heavy drinker. Yesterday, after seeing his nephew return safely, he drank a few more cups with Zheng Ye and is now unconscious.
Qin Yuan wasn't a heavy drinker, but the two had been through thick and thin together. Zheng Ye, feeling lonely, had to be forced to drink a few cups, leaving him unable to move.
Xie Zhun was in his room.
Ning Xi'er instructed Xuan Lei to place Xie Zhun on the bed in a prone position.
Even though there were torches, Xie Zhun was wearing a dark outer robe, so Ning Xi'er couldn't see the exact size of the bleeding point.
At that moment, she, Wei Xunfang, Xuan Lei, and Xuan Dian saw that the other three all had their pupils contracted, looking extremely worried.
Ning Xi'er, on the other hand, felt a little relieved.
The opponent's move was clearly ruthless, targeting the heart and back...
If the force is deep enough, piercing Xie Zhun's heart from behind, the affected area would be much larger than the size of a palm.
Ning Xi'er took out surgical scissors from her spatial storage, as if she were taking them out of her sleeve.
Ning Xi'er asked Xuan Lei to call Haitang and Aoxue and have them bring their medical bags over.
Ning Xi'er then carefully cut open Xie Zhun's clothes.
They cut open both the outer robe and the inner garment, revealing the hard jade inside...
Ning Xi'er's heart finally settled down.
The moment I hugged Xie Zhun, his skin was warm to the touch, yet it felt firmer than skin...
A guess immediately formed in my mind...
Seeing is believing, and it was finally concluded that the preparation made back then had finally saved Xie Zhun's life!
Jade burial suit!
It seems that Eunuch Xu has carried out her instructions very well!
Sure enough, when the clothes around Xie Zhun's wound were removed, revealing the outline of the entire jade burial suit, those around and behind him were quite surprised.
Even though Xuan Lei and Xuan Dian prepared medicinal baths and massages for Xie Zhun, Xu Gonggong personally put on and took off Xie Zhun's jade burial suit each time, and personally kept it safe...
They had never seen it before.
"Your Highness, what is this?"
Xuan Dian couldn't help but be curious.
Everyone else's gaze also fell on Xie Zhun's back, on the entire jade-like, lustrous "vest"...
Ning Xi'er explained, "This is called a jade burial suit. I specifically sought it out when I went to Anqing and Anping to buy weapons. It is impervious to metal and stone, and can save your life in critical moments!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Xunfang's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.
Xuan Lei immediately arrived with Haitang and Aoxue.
Haitang and Aoxue opened Ning Xier's bundle on their own, and saw the prince lying on the bed in a certain state...
Ao Xue immediately followed Professor Ning Xi'er's instructions and opened the water pouch filled with spiritual spring liquid...
Rinsing Xie Zhun's wound helps with healing and disinfection.
Once the bloodstains on the wound separated from her inner and outer garments, Ning Xi'er immediately untied the fabric...
Unexpectedly, several pieces of jade were stained with faint blood.
The obvious scratches on the surface indicate that the assassin's original attack was aimed only at the heart...
Unexpectedly, the blade encountered resistance and, in the instant it slid, inserted itself into the gap between the jade pieces...
That instantaneous slip dissipated some of the opponent's force...
However, due to excessive force, it still pierced the body.
Through the gaps in the fish fillet, the gold thread was sliced open by the blade, and with Ao Xue's help, Ning Xi'er removed the jade robe from Xie Zhun's body...
Xie Zhun's deep sorrow was finally exposed to everyone, laid bare for all to see.
