Qi Qi was extremely puzzled: "What offense?"
"Your hand is injured."
Gu Siyan suddenly emerged from the woods like a ghost, the worry in his eyes fading. He lifted Qi Qi's hand, looked at it, and then grabbed him, leading him towards the temple.
Brother Beard hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
The remaining people passed by him, nodded, patted him on the shoulder, said nothing, and left.
After cleaning the wound with wine and applying wound medicine, Gu Siyan sprinkled it on Qi Qi's hand without blinking, then wrapped it with a handkerchief: "Don't get it wet until it scabs over."
Qi Qi winced in pain: "Thank you, General."
"In the future, if you encounter danger, just call for help; you don't have to try to fight it yourself."
Qi Qi clenched his fist, met the gazes of the other five, and said firmly, "A real man's minor injury is nothing to worry about. They can't beat me at all. Let alone two, I could kill ten more of them!"
The crowd looked on with awe.
Gu Siyan frowned and said, "They are much stronger than you. If they knew martial arts, you would already be dead."
Qi Qi thought to himself, "You really know how to talk. You're still the same as before, never knowing how to compliment anyone."
Ignoring him, Qi Qi sat down next to Bearded Brother with his head down as usual and took out some dry biscuits to heat them up.
Out of the corner of their eyes, everyone glanced at his hands; they were slender, white hands with smooth, radiant skin.
Wow.
Qi Qi looked worriedly at Brother Beard, who was sitting unusually straight tonight, his movements a little stiff: "Sixth Brother, are you feeling unwell?"
Bearded Guy remained calm: "No, I'm fine, don't worry."
The pancake was enormous and so dry that it could choke two children to death. Qi Qi couldn't finish it, so he forcefully broke it in half and gave it to him: "Brother, you eat it."
"You eat."
"I can't finish it."
The bearded man took it. His face was tanned a dark reddish-brown by the firelight.
Gu Siyan said casually, "Sixth son, why haven't you mentioned having a younger brother at home?"
The bearded man explained, "He's not my biological brother."
Gu Siyan: "Oh, so I misunderstood. I thought he was my younger brother when I heard him call you brother."
The soldier next to him, nicknamed "Wooden," laughed: "What are you talking about, General? We usually call him Sixth Brother too. Besides, the two of them don't look alike at all."
Gu Siyan also laughed and said, "That's true. We're all brothers, but some of the younger brothers are still young. It seems we'll need a lot more older brothers."
Qi Qi thought to himself, "You're all the worst of the worst."
Ah, I wonder what Huangfu Jue is doing now. Why doesn't he come to find his closest eunuch?
...
Huangfu Jue was of course looking for Qi Qi.
When someone is around, you don't really feel anything, but when they're gone, you understand the true meaning of the word "longing."
That damned fourth brother dared to kidnap Qi Laibao and then died silently in another place, along with the destruction of the ship. The fifth brother has been searching for him for a month and is still looking outside, which means that Qi Laibao must not be dead. Huangfu Jue himself couldn't help but go out.
Seventh Brother... why is Seventh Brother also looking for him? Is he trying to find Qi Laibao to threaten him?
Huangfu Jue was anxious but didn't forget to think, but no matter how much he thought, there was no news, and he became more and more irritable.
Some trusted confidants advised him to give up, fearing that if he continued investigating, Huangfu Jue's weaknesses would be discovered. However, Huangfu Jue could not afford to have any weaknesses.
These words subtly implied that he had given up.
Huangfu Jue was very angry. No one knew what he was thinking. He knew what his subordinates meant: an emperor cannot be sentimental, because being sentimental creates a weakness.
But Qi Laibao, how could Qi Laibao be like an ordinary person? He is different, how could he die?
Huangfu Jue knew better than anyone that he was the one who raised Qi Laibao, and raised him very well. He was a hothouse flower, very lazy, afraid of being tired and suffering, and would grumble for a long time even when doing a little work. Now that things are so chaotic outside, how could he endure that kind of life if he were found outside?
Thinking of all this, Huangfu Jue felt both anxious and heartbroken.
