I swear
He turned to look at Xu Zhixun, his voice choked with emotion and sorrow:
"I've already sent someone to summon the imperial physician, but he hasn't arrived yet..."
After he finished speaking, he calmed down.
He sheathed his sword and then shouted at the crowd, "Don't look at the bright moon, all of you get out!"
"Leave ten maids to take care of Mingyue, everyone else leave!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other, offered a few words of comfort to Long Qian, and then quickly left the Sixth Prince's residence.
Especially the guards, they ran incredibly fast.
Because the bright moon is not wearing clothes.
The guards were worried that Long Qian might gouge out their eyes in a fit of anger!
In the blink of an eye, in the courtyard of the Sixth Prince's residence, besides Long Qian and Mingyue, there were only ten maids, Xu Zhixun, and Zhang Fuyao.
Even Eunuch Yang, Jing Zhan, and Long Yege withdrew from the Sixth Prince's residence to avoid suspicion.
Eunuch Yang and the others stood with their backs to the bright moon at the main gate of the Sixth Prince's residence, their expressions somber.
"Mingyue, Mingyue, can you hear me?" Long Qian was heartbroken and squatted on the ground, asking Mingyue in a low voice.
However, Mingyue had just been gang-raped by ten old men, her hands and feet were cut off, her tongue was cut out, and her eyes were gouged out...
Mingyue had already fainted, and she couldn't hear Long Qian at all!
She was covered in wounds, on the verge of death, and her hair was disheveled.
Her once beautiful face now bore more than twenty deep, bloody wounds.
Because Zhang Fuyao was jealous of Mingyue's beauty, she deliberately used a dagger to slash Mingyue's cheeks!
"Long Qian, Mingyue has fainted, she can't hear you!" Xu Zhixun's heart suddenly ached.
She glanced at the jade hairpin beside her and gave the instruction:
"Yu Zan, go find a blanket. I want to cover Mingyue's body so she won't catch a cold."
"Yes, Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden!" Yu Zan hurriedly ran into Mingyue's bedchamber.
Not long after, Yuzan came to Mingyue's side carrying a silk quilt.
Xu Zhixun took the quilt, wrapped it around the wine jar, and tried to use it to cover Mingyue's neck:
"Zhang Fuyao, how could you be so perverted? It's winter now, why did you take Mingyue's clothes off?"
Zhang Fuyao continued to cry: "Mingyue stole my sapphire earring, I hate her so much!"
Xu Zhixun said angrily, "Even if you hate Mingyue, you should tell the Sixth Prince about this first!"
"You shouldn't have used torture on Mingyue, and you definitely shouldn't have cut off her hands and feet!"
Upon overhearing Xu Zhixun and Zhang Fuyao's conversation, Long Qian was instantly enraged:
"Zhang Fuyao, you are truly heartless! I swear, I will never marry you in this lifetime!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Fuyao burst into tears, crying out, "Sixth Prince, I am the legitimate daughter of the Marshal's Mansion!"
"Mingyue is just a lowly maidservant. Why would you refuse to marry me for her sake?"
However, Long Qian ignored Zhang Fuyao and didn't answer her at all.
Just then, Xu Zhixun wrapped the mouth of the large wine jar with a blanket and covered Mingyue's neck to prevent her from freezing further.
"Long Qian, think of a way to fix this quilt to the wine jar?" Xu Zhixun asked helplessly.
Long Qian was flustered: "I don't know either. The imperial physician will probably be here soon."
After saying this, Long Qian instructed a maid to keep the blanket pulled up so that Mingyue would feel warmer.
So, Xu Zhixun loosened the blanket.
Next, Long Qian went to the entrance of the Sixth Prince's residence to see if the imperial physician had arrived.
At this moment, Long Yege flew over anxiously, carrying a female imperial physician in his arms:
"Imperial Physician, hurry! Quickly heal Mingyue's wounds!"
As Long Yege spoke, he flew into the courtyard of the Sixth Prince's residence and placed the female imperial physician on the ground.
The female physician was about fifty years old and wore a brown cross-collar robe.
She was startled when she saw Mingyue's face covered in wounds, and quickly ordered several maids to carry the large wine jar to Mingyue's bedroom.
Next, Mingyue was taken to her bedchamber, where the female imperial physician began to treat her injuries.
Long Qian, Yu Zan, and Ying Luo followed her into the bedchamber to check on Ming Yue's injuries.
Zhang Fuyao was still crying in the courtyard.
Several maids formed a circle, vying to comfort Zhang Fuyao.
Xu Zhixun dared not watch Mingyue's healing process, feeling that it must be extremely bloody and terrifying.
So Xu Zhixun could only wander around the Sixth Prince's residence.
Long Yege and Jing Zhan followed Xu Zhixun, discussing Zhang Fuyao's cruelty towards Mingyue.
Xu Zhixun wandered around for a while, and when she reached the back hall, she suddenly saw that Long Qian's personal servant, Qingshan, was covered in wounds and lying on the ground!
"Qingshan, Qingshan, what's wrong with you?" Xu Zhixun squatted down and shook Qingshan in a panic.
The green hills were barely breathing, and he struggled to open his eyes:
"Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, just now... just now the Second Miss wanted to send ten men to defile the Bright Moon."
"I...I tried to stop them, but I was knocked unconscious by the Second Miss's guards..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhixun was furious and immediately helped Qingshan up:
"Qingshan, you did the right thing! The Sixth Prince will definitely reward you later!"
"The imperial physician is treating Mingyue's injuries now. Let me help you to rest!"
Qingshan was flattered and overwhelmed: "Thank you, Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden!"
“Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, men and women should not touch each other. Let me help Qingshan!” Long Yege said as she supported Qingshan’s arm.
Where is your bedroom?
"The little man's bedroom is just ahead," Qingshan said weakly.
"Thank you so much, Fifth Prince! You are so kind!"
Next, everyone accompanied Qingshan to his bedroom.
Qingshan was covered in wounds and bleeding from his head, looking extremely disheveled.
With Long Yege's help, he sat down on the bed.
Xu Zhixun felt sorry for Qingshan, so she sent a maid to find the male imperial physician.
Qingshan was once again flattered and overwhelmed, his expression revealing deep gratitude:
"Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, I am but a lowly servant, utterly unworthy to be treated by the imperial physician!"
"Hey, don't say that! Anyway, the imperial physician is just sitting around doing nothing, so let him treat you!" Xu Zhixun said matter-of-factly.
Tears welled up in Qingshan's eyes: "Thank you, Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, you are truly a living bodhisattva who saves people from suffering!"
Xu Zhixun chatted with Qingshan for a while, finding out the details of Mingyue's humiliation and injury earlier.
Just now, Zhang Fuyao falsely accused Mingyue of stealing her sapphire earrings.
Subsequently, Zhang Fuyao found ten old and ugly men and ordered them to gang rape Mingyue in the courtyard.
Mingyue refused to comply and even tried to commit suicide by hitting her head against a pillar, but she didn't die. Instead, she hit her forehead and it bled profusely!
Qingshan couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he grabbed Mingyue and tried to escape.
However, Zhang Fuyao had too many guards; there was a large group of them.
Outnumbered, Qingshan was quickly knocked unconscious.
Aoyama knew nothing about what happened after that...
Xu Zhixun was very troubled after hearing Qingshan's words, so she could only comfort him.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Zan came to find Xu Zhixun, saying that Zhang Fuyao was crying and making a scene in the courtyard, kneeling and begging Long Qian to forgive her...
When Xu Zhixun heard that Zhang Fuyao had knelt down, she left Qingshan's bedroom to watch the show.
As expected, Zhang Fuyao cried her heart out, kneeling on both knees beside Long Qian:
"Sixth Prince, I know I was wrong, please forgive me!"
Zhang Fuyao's face was covered in tears, her posture so humble it was almost groveling.
She never dreamed that Long Qian would swear never to marry a lowly maid!
Zhang Fuyao originally thought that even if Long Qian was very angry, he would at most ignore her for a few months.
Once Long Qian's anger subsides, the matter will be over.
Little did Zhang Fuyao know that Mingyue held a much more important place in Long Qian's heart than she had imagined!
Therefore, Zhang Fuyao has committed a terrible crime this time, and Long Qian has no intention of forgiving her...
Next, Long Yege reminded everyone to have lunch at the Fifth Prince's residence.
Because everyone had been busy dealing with Zhang Fuyao and Mingyue's matter and hadn't had lunch yet!
So, everyone went to the Fifth Prince's residence and had lunch.
Long Qian's face remained as black as the bottom of a pot.
Xu Zhixun was also in a bad mood.
——————————————
After lunch, Long Yege gave Xu Zhixun a high-quality glass-type jadeite bracelet, saying it was a gift for their first meeting.
The bracelet was crystal clear, pure and beautiful.
After putting on the jade bracelet, Xu Zhixun's mood finally improved.
Her return gift to Long Yege was a Wuliangye liquor gift box.
Next, the group went to the pavilion in the Sixth Prince's residence to drink tea and rest.
In the center of the pavilion, there is a stone table and four stone benches.
Xu Zhixun picked up the teacup on the stone table, took a sip of hot tea, and whispered:
"Longqian, I also want to hear Mingyue play the pipa. Her pipa playing is especially beautiful!"
"Yes, it's a pity that Mingyue no longer has hands and can no longer play the pipa!"
Jing Zhan sighed, his face full of regret.
Upon hearing this, Long Qian's face instantly turned extremely ugly.
He grabbed the teacup on the table and splashed the hot tea at Zhang Fuyao, who was kneeling beside him!
Zhang Fuyao was caught off guard and had hot tea splashed all over her face!
"Ahhhhh!" Zhang Fuyao screamed repeatedly as her face was scalded by hot water.
"Second Miss, Second Miss, are you alright?" Zhang Fuyao's personal maid quickly found a handkerchief and wiped the tea off Zhang Fuyao's face.
Zhang Fuyao sobbed, "I'm fine."
After speaking, Zhang Fuyao instructed the maids beside her:
"Go quickly and invite my parents and elder brother here."
"Also, invite the Emperor, Empress, and Empress Dowager here!"
"Yes, Miss!" The maids agreed to Zhang Fuyao's request.
In the blink of an eye, several maids went to invite Marshal Zhang and the others.
Xu Zhixun thought for a moment, then suddenly stood up from the stone bench:
"Long Qian, I remember now! In Heaven, doctors can reattach the severed arms of the gods!"
"Let's quickly find Mingyue's hands and legs, and then try using wound dressings to see if we can reattach them to her body?"
Long Qian was taken aback and suddenly stood up:
"Zhang Fuyao, where are Mingyue's limbs? Find them quickly!"
Zhang Fuyao was struck dumb, stammering:
"I've already had Mingyue's limbs thrown away..."
"Where did you throw it?" Long Qian asked anxiously.
Zhang Fuyao: "I...I don't know either..."
Upon hearing this, Long Qian immediately questioned the guards, maids, servants, and others in the Sixth Prince's residence.
Immediately afterwards, Long Qian learned from a guard that Zhang Fuyao had sent people to throw Mingyue's limbs into a large pot and cook them.
Zhang Fuyao originally intended to force Mingyue to eat her own flesh.
However, before Zhang Fuyao could do that, Long Qian, Xu Zhixun and others arrived at the Sixth Prince's residence!
