Chapter 217 Chen Qiu Recognizes Mei Qi
The tent was busy for an hour, and Jingxin asked someone to set up a pot on the spot to boil water.
Basins of hot water were brought in, and basins of blood were brought out. Mei Qi clenched his hands tightly, and his eyes turned terribly red as he looked at the basins of blood.
"Mei Qi, if Qiu'er can't wake up, I'll leave my home to you." Ye Chen had been staring at the tent and suddenly said this.
Mei Qi turned her head abruptly and looked at Ye Chen. "The flowers will be fine. You take care of your family. I only take care of my flowers. Other people have nothing to do with me."
Ye Chen didn't say anything. When he saw Chen Qiu vomiting blood and unconscious, it was as if he saw the moment when Chen Qiu died in his previous life. If Qiu'er was destined to leave, he would not leave her alone.
In her previous life, she stayed alone in that cold ice cave for ten years before I found her. In this life, no one can separate them again, not even death.
Ye Chen didn't say anything else, but just stared at the tent without blinking, as if he wanted to stare a hole in it.
"Princess, we caught a few people. They said that their commander led them to do this." As for what this incident was, everyone here naturally knew it.
Mei Qi glanced at those people and said, "Keep them under guard and wait for news from Jingxin."
These people can't run away. Now no matter who comes, it's not as important as Chen Qiu. As long as she is fine, he will let these people go peacefully.
Jingxin and Lanyu were busy for an hour before they came out of the tent. When Ye Chen saw Jingxin and the others coming out, he immediately rushed over to them and asked, "Where's Qiu'er?"
"Don't worry, Xiaoqiu is fine. She just lost too much blood and is still unconscious. Put her on the carriage later and take good care of her in the palace. She will recover soon." Lan Yu took over and comforted Ye Chen.
But before Ye Chen could hear Lan Yu finish her words and walk towards the tent, he suddenly felt a pain in the back of his head and lost consciousness.
"His leg is also injured. Give him some treatment and then we'll go back." Mei Qi knocked Ye Chen unconscious, handed him to the guard beside him, and then went into the tent.
"Hua'er, I'm sorry I didn't let Ye Chen come in the first time." Mei Qi knelt in front of a temporary bed where Shen Qiu was lying, looked at Shen Qiu's bloodless face, and reached out her trembling hands to touch Shen Qiu's eyebrows.
"You must be well, flower, you must be well. Only when the flower is well can the tree be well." Mei Qi didn't dare to say too much, for fear of disturbing Chen Qiu's rest. She just injected some true energy into Chen Qiu's body.
Mei Qi carried Chen Qiu and the bed out by herself. Everyone was stunned by Mei Qi's actions. Lan Yu quickly ran to the front and opened the door of the carriage.
Mei Qi pushed Chen Qiu and the wooden board into the carriage, and said, "Take good care of them." Mei Qi picked up a person he had just captured from the guard's hand, jumped up, and disappeared.
Lan Yu and the others knew what he was going to do and did not stop him. Even if they tried to stop him, they could not catch up with him.
When they returned to the palace, it was already past midnight. Ye Chen woke up on his own and Chen Qiu was lying beside him.
Ye Chen held Chen Qiu's hand and said, "Qiu'er, you left in the last life. In this life, so many people helped me to keep you. I finally managed to keep you here."
Ye Chen lay beside Shen Qiu, not daring to get too close. He just kept holding Shen Qiu's hand and stared at Shen Qiu all night. He didn't dare to close his eyes, for fear that if he opened his eyes, his Qiu'er would disappear.
It was not until the sunlight came in from outside that Ye Chen saw Chen Qiu's eyes move. "Qiu'er, Qiu'er!" Ye Chen called Chen Qiu softly twice.
When Chen Qiu heard the voice, he turned his head to where the voice came from, then opened his eyes and saw Ye Chen's eyes. Chen Qiu forced out a smile.
She was in so much pain that she could feel a dense mass of pain everywhere. Shen Qiu wanted to raise her hand to touch Ye Chen's face, but was held down by Ye Chen. "Qiu'er, your husband is here. Is it painful? Are you hungry? Do you want some water?"
Chen Qiu tried hard to open his mouth and squeeze out a smile, "It hurts, my whole body hurts, but I'm even hungrier now, I want to eat something."
"Okay, my husband will have someone bring you some food. I'll pour you some water first, okay?"
"good"
Ye Chen got off the bed and limped to the table to pour water for Shen Qiu.
With a creaky sound, someone pushed the door open. It was Lan Yu.
"Are you awake? What do you want? I'll get it." Lan Yu didn't sleep well last night. She didn't expect Ye Chen and Shen Qiu to come to help her regardless of their lives.
When she was imprisoned, she thought about asking Ye Chen and others for help, but she was afraid that Ye Chen was not capable. Although he was smart enough and favored by the Emperor of Great Yin, she was not sure whether Ye Chen and Shen Qiu could persuade the Emperor of Great Yin to send troops for Ye Nan.
Therefore, in the end, the Regent came forward and handed over the letter of credence to the Emperor of Great Yin. With the letter of credence, it was elevated to an exchange between countries. The Emperor of Great Yin would definitely summon ministers to discuss the matter. Ye Chen had a very high status in the emperor's heart, so he would definitely consult Ye Chen. If Ye Chen was willing to help them at this time, the possibility of sending troops would be much higher.
But no one expected that Ye Chen and Shen Qiu would still come with only 10,000 troops. Even if other people were to bring the troops, or even if no troops were sent, Ye Nan would not be able to say anything. After all, the emperor of Great Yin should first consider the people of his own country, not those of other countries. In the eyes of the emperor of Great Yin, a mere Ye Nan could not compare to his sister's only son. Therefore, there was only one possibility, that Ye Chen volunteered to help her.
Lan Yu had someone bring in hot water. She didn't let the servants take over and personally helped Ye Chen and Shen Qiu wring out the handkerchiefs.
She also asked someone to bring the porridge she cooked. Ye Chen and Shen Qiu were seriously injured, so it would be better for them to eat some porridge that was easily digestible.
"Where's Mei Qi?" Ye Chen wiped his face and asked Lan Yu where Mei Qi had gone. He must have been the one who knocked himself unconscious yesterday. Now he and Shen Qiu have been awake for a while. According to how much he cared about Qiu'er, Ye Chen would not have thought anything of it even if he had been guarding their bed all the time. But there was no sign of her until now, so either she was not there or she had more important things to do.
Lan Yu shook his head. "I don't know. After knocking you unconscious yesterday, he told us to take good care of you. He then took a captured rebel and left. He hasn't come back yet."
Ye Chen probably knew what Mei Qi had done. "Tell Xiao Hang to take people to look for him. He must have gone to look for the group of people who ambushed us yesterday. Those people hurt Qiu'er so badly, he won't let them go. He hasn't rested for two days and two nights. He consumed too much internal energy when treating Qiu'er's injuries. I'm afraid he will be too tired to come back after dealing with those people."
Lan Yu could sense the difference in Mei Qi's attitude towards Ye Chen and Shen Qiu, so without asking anything, he went to find Xiao Hang and asked him to bring his men to find Mei Qi with a rebel who had been captured yesterday.
Apart from anything else, he rescued them alone, went deep into the enemy camp alone, took the head of the rebel leader, captured Chu Ning, and made them win the battle that they originally had no chance of winning. Lan Yu, Ye Nan, and the entire royal family owed him a favor, so, he must not be allowed to get into trouble.
Xiao Hang searched for Mei Qi for the whole morning but could not find any trace of Mei Qi. It was not until after noon that Xiao Hang saw a person walking towards him from a distance.
"Doctor Xiao, what...what is that..." The person behind Xiao Hang looked at the person walking towards him from a distance and spoke tremblingly.
What did he see? This person was truly terrifying. This wasn't a human being at all; this was clearly a demon.
I saw that man, his originally moon-white robe was covered in bloodstains, and the original color of the robe could no longer be seen. He was carrying a rope on his shoulder, and behind the rope was a string of unknown objects, which the man was dragging along the ground as he walked towards him step by step.
Only when he got closer could he see clearly that the man was dragging a string of human heads behind him. Xiao Hang watched Mei Qi walking towards him step by step, and swallowed unconsciously.
"Mei Qi, Xiao Qiu has woken up. She said she wants to see you." Xiao Hang was sure at this moment that Mei Qi really treated Shen Qiu differently, otherwise he would not have done such a thing.
Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Hang finished speaking, Mei Qi's bloodshot eyes suddenly lit up, "Okay, I'll go see her."
Then he swung it hard, and everyone screamed and quickly retreated. They saw that the heads behind Mei Qi were swung together. "That... Mei Qi, based on my understanding of Xiao Qiu, she probably doesn't want to see such a scene." Xiao Hang's scalp also tingled when facing such a scene.
Mei Qi looked at Xiao Hang, then at the pile of heads on the ground. "Then I'll leave it to you. You can decide how to deal with them. Anyway, revenge has been taken."
After saying that, he threw away the rope in his hand. When he was about to use Qinggong to leave, Xiao Hang stopped him and took a look at the clothes on Mei Qi. "I'll go back with you. Someone will change your clothes and you can take a shower. You don't want Xiao Qiu to worry, nor do you want Xiao Qiu to smell the blood on you, right?"
Mei Qi looked at the colorless robe on her body and finally nodded, "Okay"
Xiao Hang ordered his men to bury the heads, and he and Mei Qi got into the carriage together. He looked at Mei Qi. If he entered Silver Moon City like this, wouldn't people think he was a devil?
After arriving at the palace, Xiao Hang took Mei Qi to take a bath and got him a set of clothes. Then he took Mei Qi to the house where Ye Chen and Shen Qiu were currently living.
Chen Qiu already knew Mei Qi's identity.
Originally, Ye Chen and Mei Qi planned not to tell Chen Qiu Mei Qi's identity, but when Chen Qiu was injured this time, she finally saw the appearance of her brother Xiaoshu in the dream, and it was Mei Qi.
With a try-it attitude, she wanted to meet Mei Qi to confirm whether he was the little tree brother from that year.
Chen Qiu never hides anything from Ye Chen, especially the past that could easily lead to misunderstandings. It would be fine if she never saw Xiaoshu again, but now that she has seen him, and he is right next to them, she cannot hide it from Ye Chen.
After Ye Chen listened to Chen Qiu's story about his past with Mei Qi, he also told Chen Qiu about his late night talks with Mei Qi. "Why are you trying to hide it from me?" Chen Qiu didn't understand.
"He was afraid that you would be embarrassed. When he made this request, I actually understood. He was afraid that you would not let him be An An's master, and then he would not be able to stay with you. He was also afraid that if you knew about it, you would feel guilty and uneasy because he had been protecting you all the time, so we decided to hide it from you." Ye Chen lay next to Shen Qiu. Shen Qiu could only lie flat. She had two broken ribs on her left side, and sleeping on her side would pull them, so even though she was very uncomfortable, she could not move at all.
"Alas, I really cannot respond to such deep affection. How can I delay him now that I have you? My husband, I am a little afraid to see him?" Chen Qiu sometimes wants to escape when encountering things, especially this kind of thing. If someone competes with her for her husband, she can curse back or fight back, like the former Princess An Ning.
But this person is Brother Xiaoshu whom she met when she was a child. She just regarded him as a brother, just like Shen Yue. But now she knows that he has different feelings for her, and she doesn’t know how to face it.
"Knock, knock, knock." Before Ye Chen could answer, someone knocked on the door. Ye Chen sat up and leaned against the headboard of the bed and shouted, "Come in."
Mei Qi pushed the door open and came in. She saw Ye Chen lying outside against the head of the bed, and Shen Qiu lying flat on his back inside. She walked to the bed and squatted down. Before she could say anything, Shen Qiu called out, "Brother Xiaoshu!"
Mei Qi glanced at Ye Chen, as if asking, "What's going on? How did you tell her?"
Ye Chen understood Mei Qi's expression and said with a smile, "I didn't say that. Qiu'er dreamed about it herself."
Mei Qi obviously didn't believe it, but Chen Qiu said, "Ever since you came to the Ye family, I've been dreaming about the month we were together as children, but I couldn't see your face clearly. Yesterday, when I was injured, I dreamed about it again, and this time I saw your face, this very face."
Mei Qi didn't know what to say. She smiled bitterly and said, "When I was going to tell you, you didn't recognize me at all. Later, when I didn't want to tell you, you even dreamed about me. You are still the same as when you were a child. I don't know what to do with you!"
"Thank you for yesterday. I have a very strong true energy in my body. Did you give it to me?" Chen Qiu just turned her head to look at Mei Qi. She really wanted to move.
"Yes, Huaer, don't say thank you to Brother Xiaoshu. You are my sister. Isn't it natural for a brother to be nice to his sister?" The thank you made Mei Qi immediately think of Chen Qiu's situation.
If Shen Qiu knew about his feelings for her, how would she cope with it? How would she face herself in the future? So, almost instantly, Mei Qi made the decision to just be her little tree brother from now on, at least not let her feel his feelings.
When Chen Qiu heard Mei Qi say that he was just her little tree brother, he really took a deep breath and the stone in his heart was gone.
This is the best. She already has her own home, and he will also have his own person, but that person may not have appeared yet.
After this day, when Ye Chen and Shen Qiu were recuperating from their injuries, Mei Qi came to accompany them from the morning, eating and chatting together. Sometimes she and Ye Chen took turns reading storybooks to Shen Qiu to entertain him.
"How is Xiaofu? Have you found a way to save her?" Jingxin came in to bring medicine to Chenqiu. Chenqiu remembered that Meiqi gave Jingxin a book, saying that there might be a way to cure Xiaofu in it.
Jingxin looked at Chen Qiu and said, "There is a method in it that is said to be able to reshape bones, but no one has ever used it. I don't know if it will work. Moreover, we are short of many of the drugs in it, and it is very difficult to gather them all."
"If there is a way, try it. No matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than it is now, right? As for the medicine, let's think of a way. You list the prescriptions and we will look for them one by one. We can't give up until the last moment." Chen Qiu liked Xiaofu very much since the first time she saw this girl. She was small, and her eyes were like a lake, so clear. She wanted to keep this little girl.
"Well, Liuyun asked me to do the same. The prescription has been written, and Lanyu is thinking of a solution." It was the first time that Jingxin had seen this kind of treatment method. She was actually a little scared. After all, it was the expectation of so many people, and she didn't want to let them down.
