Jing Zhong reacted very quickly, immediately slashing the assassin with his sword. Perhaps realizing the situation was unfavorable, the assassin quickly fled.
"Wange! Wange!" Jingzhong watched as the little girl in his arms bleeds more and more, and for the first time in his life, he felt panicked. He immediately picked her up and rushed to find the imperial physician.
…
Meanwhile, behind the bushes, the little fox looked at its wound that had healed instantly. Luckily, it was just a sword from an ordinary mortal, otherwise it would have been at a huge loss.
However, the medicine that the adult gave her was indeed effective. In just one night, her power was restored to 60%. Now she still has one pill left, so she should be able to fully recover soon.
She just didn't understand why the master wanted her to pretend to be an assassin. She couldn't figure it out… Humans are really complicated. Oh well, she'd better listen to the master and leave this place as soon as possible.
…
"General Jing, what exactly happened!" Prince Jin clenched his fist, clearly very angry.
Jing Zhong's fingertips seemed to still be trembling, and his head was lowered, his deep voice filled with guilt: "It's my fault, I failed to protect her."
He once thought that no one in the world was more skilled in martial arts than him, otherwise how could they justify his years of training day and night since he was so young?
He never expected that he would be so far behind. He knew very well that if Wan Ge hadn't appeared, he might be the one lying down now, or he might already be dead.
"How is Wan Ge?" Qu Wanli rushed over anxiously. He had just thought having a younger sister was nice, but then he heard that she was seriously injured.
Prince Jin looked at his son and sighed.
Jingzhong then spoke up: "I encountered an assassin in the forest, and it was Wange who took a sword for me."
It was at that time that Jingzhong realized he had always cared about Wan Ge and had long since fallen in love with her.
"Damn it! Whoever dares to hurt my sister, when I catch him, I'll make sure he's reduced to ashes." Qu Wanli punched a tree beside her, her brows furrowed.
A quarter of an hour later, the imperial physician finally came out: "The young princess is seriously injured and has a high fever. If she can make it through tonight, her life should be out of danger."
After listening to this, Jingzhong immediately went inside and saw a person lying on the bed with a pale face.
Every time I saw her after I came back, she was radiant and beautiful. This was the first time I had seen her so fragile and pale.
…
After leaving Wan Ge, Jing Zhong immediately summoned his subordinates: "We must find that person and those who instigated him. I will not let them get away with this."
At the same time, the little fox, who had already left the enclosure, sneezed.
After his subordinates left, Jing Zhong went directly to Xie Nanyan's tent.
Xie Nanyan was just about to look for him when the other party showed up unexpectedly.
“I’ve heard that you have a thousand-year-old ginseng. I’d like to trade it with you. You can have anything you want.”
Seeing Jing Zhong's tense expression, Xie Nanyan sighed inwardly. His brother was truly doomed: "The ginseng is gone, but..."
Xie Nanyan took out a bottle: "I made these pills a while ago. Besides the thousand-year-old ginseng, I also added other things. I can't say they can bring the dead back to life, but they should have some effect. You can try them first."
"I owe you one more time." Jing Zhong gripped the bottle tightly in his hand.
"Alright, enough talk, go on."
Jingzhong clasped his hands in thanks, then hurriedly went over to Wan Ge's side.
