When Shen Shuyi found Zhao Heng following the coordinates provided by 66, he was already lying motionless in the woods.
She walked over quickly and saw the handsome face clearly in the moonlight.
Just as she squatted down to check his injuries, the seriously injured and unconscious man was extremely alert and raised his hand to attack her neck.
Shen Shuyi pressed his hand down and said, “Don’t move if you don’t want to die.”
"Who are you?!" Zhao Heng's eyes were cold.
Shen Shuyi snorted, “I will be your savior. If you resist again, you will probably die from excessive blood loss.”
Zhao Heng didn't sense her murderous intent, and seeing that she was a little girl with a veil on her face, he dropped his hands out of exhaustion.
He said weakly, "I'm sorry."
Shen Shuyi took out the top-grade healing medicine exchanged from the system, “Where are you injured? I will help you stop the bleeding first.”
Zhao Heng now had no time to care about her purpose of saving him, he just wanted to return to Chang'an alive.
"Lower left abdomen." His old illness triggered him and he was stabbed by the assassin in the moment of distraction.
Shen Shuyi asked 66 to pay attention to the surroundings, and then untied Zhao Heng's clothes, "I'll stop the bleeding for you."
She moved skillfully, stitching, and applying medicine without looking away. After applying the medicine, she used the soft sword at Zhao Heng's side to cut a long strip of cloth on her skirt to bandage the wound.
During this time, the pain made Zhao Heng sober up a little. His eyes fell directly on the girl's face. Her face was covered with a veil, and only a pair of clear and beautiful eyes could be seen.
Now she bent over to apply medicine on herself, and a faint fragrance lingered around her, like the sweet scent of red plum blossoms in winter.
"Okay." Shen Shuyi pretended not to notice his gaze, stretched out her hand to feel his pulse and probed his forehead.
Zhao Heng had been holding on. He had given a signal to his subordinates after he fell to the ground with serious injuries and hid in the woods, waiting for reinforcements to come. Unexpectedly, he met this little girl with great medical skills, and the bleeding had stopped...
"Thank you very much."
Shen Shuyi looked around and said, "I am so unlucky. I came out to relax at night and encountered such a fatal thing."
"I don't know if the criminals who wanted to kill you are still around. I don't even dare to go back to the post station."
After saying that, she lowered her head to look at the man lying on the ground.
Zhao Heng's face returned to calm, as if he was still the gentle and polite prince. "My men will be here soon. If you trust me, you can wait before leaving."
With her around, I have an extra layer of protection if my injuries worsen.
The sinking of the book seems to be considering.
"I'm still an unmarried girl. What's the point of staying with you? I have to find a way to go back. I can't let my brother find out that I sneaked out..."
"My subordinates are very tight-lipped, so you can rest assured, young lady."
Shen Shuyi glanced at him suspiciously, “If you didn’t have such a good-looking face, I wouldn’t necessarily meddle in other people’s business. Who knows if you are a good person or a bad person…”
"Oh no... Grandma said that the more beautiful a person is, the more likely they are to lie..."
Zhao Heng's consciousness is becoming more and more confused...
Shen Shuyi looked at the unconscious man, "66, how far are Zhao Heng's men from here? Have all the killers been dealt with?"
[The killer has been cleared up, his men are coming soon. Host, why don't you stay? It will increase your chances of getting along.]
Shen Shuyi shook his head gently, “If I take the initiative to approach him in the early stage, I’m afraid he will doubt my purpose. It’s better to let him come closer, and I will go first.”
Knowing her amazing medical skills, Zhao Heng would think of her first person when he wanted to cure his old illness.
It was already midnight when I returned to the inn. There was no movement outside, and even the guards at the door had withdrawn.
Chen Shuyi slept until dawn, and when she woke up in the morning it was Lu Wu who helped her wash up.
"Miss, there are a lot of soldiers standing outside, and there is also a luxurious carriage. I wonder who the owner is." Lu Wu couldn't help muttering while helping her comb her hair.
Lu Wu is a personal maid who has served her since she was a child. She is lively, efficient and loyal.
Shen Shuyi certainly knew what was outside, it all depended on whether Zhao Heng was willing to reveal his identity.
She walked out of the room wearing a light purple dress and a gentle and charming bun on her hair.
As soon as she arrived at the meal area of the post station, she saw Zhao Heng, who still looked a little pale but still handsome, dressed in luxurious clothes and with a jade pendant on his waist.
Chen Feng stepped forward first, "Shuyi, this is Prince Su, he will go back to Chang'an with us next."
The moment Shen Shuyi saw Zhao Heng, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, but she came back to her senses in an instant, lowered her head slightly, and stepped forward to salute.
"My daughter has met His Majesty."
In the sunlight, Zhao Heng could clearly see the girl's face. Her little face was so beautiful that it didn't look like that of an ordinary person.
Even though she was not wearing a veil, he recognized that this Miss Shen was the girl with superb medical skills who saved him last night.
What's more, he had checked and found that there were no other young women around.
Zhao Heng looked away, "Miss Shen, there's no need to be so polite. Come over and have breakfast with us."
Before Shen Shuyi answered, a strange look flashed in Shen Feng's eyes. Why did this Prince Su, who had never been close to women, invite Shuyi to eat at the same table...
Shen Shuyi didn't think so much about it. The original owner grew up with her grandmother, so she wasn't bound by so many etiquette, and her words and actions were naturally lively.
She curved her eyebrows and said, "Then I would like to thank the prince for giving me a seat."
Shen Feng wanted to refuse, but one person asked someone to serve the food and another person had already sat down, so he had to sit down too.
Shen Shuyi stole a glance at Zhao Heng from the corner of his eye. He was a gentle man who was eight feet tall and looked like a gentleman.
No one spoke during the meal, and the group finished their breakfast and prepared to set off.
Zhao Heng's subordinates and Shen Feng were checking the carriage and horses. Only Shen Shuyi and Zhao Heng were left. She stepped forward and said with a chuckle:
"I didn't expect to meet the famous Prince Su here."
"Famous? I wonder what Miss Shen thinks of me." Zhao Heng felt that she looked even more beautiful when she smiled, as if a fairy had been tainted with a bit of mortal agility.
Shen Shuyi didn't expect him to say this, but who wouldn't say flattering words, and she looked him in the eyes and said it quite sincerely.
"It is said that the prince is a great hero who terrifies the enemy!"
Zhao Heng smiled faintly, "This king thinks... Miss Shen is a wonderful person."
Shen Shuyi blinked at him, “I don’t understand what you are saying.”
Seeing that she was pretending to be well behaved and smiling, Zhao Heng did not expose what happened last night.
After getting on the carriage, Shen Shuyi prepared to sleep all the way to the general's mansion, but someone didn't let her be so comfortable.
At noon, they were resting and having lunch in the wild. When Shen Shuyi was sitting under a big tree drinking water, Shen Feng came over.
"When you return to the General's Mansion this time, please don't be willful and embarrass Qingyi again."
Shen Shuyi raised her eyes and looked at him coldly, “What do you mean by that?”
"Do you think it was really me who pushed Shen Qingyi into the lake ten years ago?"
"Or, now that you are going to inherit the General's Mansion, you want to teach me a lesson as the head of the family."
Shen Feng seemed to be angry as if his mind was stepped on.
This scene happened to be seen by Zhao Heng who was camping and resting not far away.
