"Hong'er..."
"Your Highness..."
"Your Highness..."
......
Several voices rang out at the same time.
Xie Zhun lowered his head, belatedly noticing his legs...
But before she could feel joy, her gaze was quickly drawn to the crimson blood on Ning Xi'er's body...
Bai Zhi hesitated slightly, wanting to carry Ning Xi'er to the carriage so she could easily remove her clothes for Haitang and Aoxue to stop the bleeding...
However, Ning Xi'er was poisoned inside the carriage, and Bai Zhi was unsure whether there were any other residual poisons inside...
Behind the house, Eunuch Xu was engaged in a fierce battle with Cang Shu...
But after placing it on the ground, the prince sat beside the futon...
Bai Zhi hadn't forgotten that her mistress and the prince had actually divorced long ago...
"What are you standing there for?! Put him down right now!"
Xie Zhun gave the order sternly.
Bai Zhi dared not delay any longer and put Ning Xi'er down.
Haitang and Aoxue had already taken the medicine powder and gauze and knelt down.
Bai Zhi pulled out a mattress from the carriage and placed it in front of Xie Zhun, Ning Xi'er, Haitang, and Aoxue to help them unbutton Ning Xi'er's clothes to stop the bleeding.
Xie Zhun should avoid discussing women's bodies, especially Ning Xi'er's...
But at the critical moment of life and death, seeing Ning Xi'er's chest stained red with blood...
He felt a sharp tightness in his chest...
As long as she's alive, he can't think of anything else...
Even if his leg couldn't be cured, even if she woke up and was angry with him, he would accept it.
He had to see it with his own eyes to be at ease...
With tears streaming down her face, Haitang trembled as she unbuttoned Ning Xi'er's clothes.
Undistracted, and worried that the blood would stain Ning Xi'er's skin, Ao Xue used scissors to cut open Ning Xi'er's inner garment at her chest and slowly peeled it off...
When Aoxue gently untied the thread from the bodice, the wound from the sword piercing her was revealed...
Aoxue and Haitang both breathed a sigh of relief.
Upon seeing this, Xie Zhun finally felt relieved.
But he moved closer to Ning Xi'er...
Aoxue knew he was worried, and at that moment she couldn't care about anything else, so she had Haitang pull Ning Xi'er's bodice up...
While cleaning Ning Xi'er's wound, she pointed to it and explained to Xie Zhun...
The wound wasn't deep, but it hit a vital spot, causing significant bleeding, which is why everyone was so worried.
After cleaning, Aoxue quickly sprinkled the hemostatic powder given by Ning Xier on the wound to ensure that there was no more blood seeping out before properly bandaging it with gauze.
Bai Zhi had already taken Ning Xi'er's inner and outer garments from the carriage carrying supplies.
Seeing that Xie Zhun had no intention of avoiding the issue, the three of them quickly helped Ning Xi'er change into her inner and outer garments.
The Duke of Protectorate, his wife, and the first and second wives all stood on the outer perimeter as a human wall of protection. Hearing Aoxue's explanation to Xie Zhun, their hearts finally settled down.
The reason I valued Ning Xi'er earlier was because she had the potential to cure His Highness's poison...
Through their time together, she was able to quickly fill in for His Highness when he was unwell. Her talent, medical skills, and character earned her the trust and respect of everyone in the Prince's Mansion and the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
In their hearts, they already considered Ning Xi'er as one of their own.
But the younger sister recalled that when they set off, His Highness readily provided a divorce agreement...
Thinking about it makes me feel the same way as Eunuch Xu—heartbroken!
"Stop him!"
With a loud shout from Eunuch Xu, the sounds of fierce fighting behind the house ceased.
Seeing that things were temporarily alright on this side, and that the two generals had basically brought the matter to a close with the help of their guards, Xu Yan ran to the back of the house to find Eunuch Xu.
The corpse lying on the ground was Atractylodes lancea.
He coughed up blood, his eyes wide open, and he was already dead.
Eunuch Xu carried his sword, looking somewhat tired.
After confirming that Eunuch Xu was alright, Xu Yan knelt down beside Cang Shu and examined his mouth. He found that there was indeed poison in his mouth, indicating that he had committed suicide by taking the medicine.
"He got off too easily!" said Eunuch Xu angrily.
This treacherous scum, if not for the purpose of interrogating him to find the mastermind, just for that sneak attack on the princess's vitals...
Eunuch Xu wished he could be tortured to death!
"Father, how are you?"
Xu Yan walked to Xu Gonggong's side, ready to help him up.
Eunuch Xu waved his hand, indicating that he was alright, and asked Xu Yan to bring Cang Shu's body to the front.
Eunuch Xu and Gan Cao walked ahead, while Xu Yan stared at Cang Shu's corpse on the ground...
They closed his eyes and carried him out.
When Eunuch Xu and Gan Cao returned to the front of the house, Haitang and Aoxue had already changed Ning Xi'er's clothes.
Because the prince cared, he did not move Ning Xi'er into the carriage, but instead laid her flat beside him to lie quietly.
Seeing that Ning Xi'er's eyes were closed and her blood-stained clothes had been removed, Eunuch Xu threw his sword aside and quickly knelt down to inquire...
Xie Zhun comforted him, and only then did Eunuch Xu feel a little better.
It's clear that Eunuch Xu truly loves and cherishes Ning Xi'er.
"Bang!"
Xu Yan threw Cang Shu's corpse on the ground.
Xie Zhun glanced at them indifferently, his gaze turning icy.
