Chapter 110: The Dream of Yanmen Deputy General
"If you die, she won't die."
Ji Suxian had been feeling Shang Yuwan's pulse, fearing that it would suddenly break.
Her tone was as cold as spring.
"But if she dies, you won't be safe either. You'll die with her."
"Am I right?"
Xiao Qingxu was silent for a moment and then hummed.
What a lunatic.
The muscles on Ji Suxian's face twitched a few times, but he didn't say anything angry or harsh. "Recently, there are a few people in our group that I don't recognize. Who are they?"
"Qu Qiren."
"It seems like you guys have some kind of deal."
Otherwise, Xiao Qingxu would not allow Qu Qiren to mix in.
"Who else knows?"
"Yuan Ji, Lu Heying, and Bai Xiaoye and the others."
Bai Xiaoye, Cheng Yishui and others have become more cautious than before since they experienced those events in Luzhou City. If they had not informed them in advance, Yi Buyuan and his men would have been caught and killed long ago.
"Knock knock." Someone knocked on the door.
"It's me. How's Xiaowan?"
Ji Suxian didn't even bother to open the door. He said, "Go ask Commander Yue yourself and ask him what good things he said."
Yuan Ji stood at the door in silence for a while, "I have some medicine here, can you use it?"
Ji Suxian thought for a moment and motioned Xiao Qingxu to go over and open the door.
"This is......"
Before Yuan Ji could finish his words, Xiao Qingxu took the medicine bottle from his hand and was about to close the door.
Yuan Ji quickly blocked the door and said, "Let me go in and see Xiao Wan."
Xiao Qingxu glanced at him and asked, "Do you know medicine?"
"......don't know."
"Wanwan needs to rest now. Please keep an eye on the censor and don't make any noise."
After saying that, Xiao Qingxu kicked his foot out and closed the door.
Yuan Ji was silent for a moment, then turned around to find Yue Zhu who was being held captive to ask for clarification.
"How about it?"
In the room, Xiao Qingxu looked at Ji Suxian's expression, and since there was nothing wrong with his body, he still wanted to ask.
"This medicine is very good, but it's too strong and not suitable for use now." Ji Suxian put the bottle of medicine given by Yuan Ji into the medicine box with an expressionless face. "She won't die for the time being, but if she doesn't want to wake up, I'm afraid she will die soon."
The ambiguous answer made Xiao Qingxu's heart tighten, "What do you mean?"
"Shang Yuwan collapsed because of the saying 'If the ruler wishes for the death of his subjects, the subjects must die.' She was already severely wounded, but because her heartstrings were so tense, she temporarily ignored it."
Ji Suxian looked down at Shang Yuwan and sighed in his heart.
This person usually endures everything and always puts others first, always putting himself aside.
"She carries the blood feud of over a hundred Shang family members, and then there's your life-saving grace. Twelve's whereabouts in Langjiang are unknown, and there are also many troubles with Xiao Qinggu. The pressure is already as heavy as a mountain weighing on her. If Shang Mingqi wasn't still safe in Baijialou, she would have collapsed long ago."
"Her body and heart seemed to be constantly battered by old scars and new wounds, and she simply couldn't withstand such a great shock. Humans have a survival instinct, so she suddenly fell asleep, using this as an excuse to briefly escape reality."
Ji Suxian pursed her lips. "If she doesn't wake up, she will die in her dream. When a string that has been taut for a long time suddenly loosens completely, it's like a candle burning out."
A cool breeze came through the window and blew between the eyebrows of Ji Suxian and Xiao Qingxu.
Xiao Qingxu went forward and opened the window, letting the cool breeze into the somewhat stuffy room. Dark clouds gradually gathered in the sky outside the inn, and it seemed that the weather was about to change.
There was a faint rumble of thunder in the distance, and Xiao Qingxu's heart sank slightly.
There was a thunderstorm on the day the Shang family was wiped out, there was also a thunderstorm on the day he and Wen Qijun joined forces to help Wanwan be reborn, there was a thunderstorm on the day they encountered a flood in Luzhou City, and... now.
Ji Suxian sighed lightly and pulled out all the silver needles from Shang Yuwan's body.
"This dream must be the result she has always dreamed of." Ji Suxian reached out and tucked Shang Yuwan's white hair behind her ears. "It can also be considered a temporary form of self-protection."
After all, the fact of wiping out an entire family was too painful, not to mention that Shang Yuwan had been planning this since she was five years old, and had endured too much pressure that she shouldn't have. At this point, it was already a relief that she hadn't gone crazy.
"Since I was five years old..." Ji Suxian was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, "Is it really because of that old thing Emperor Chengming?"
Ji Suxian knew all the confidential information in Baijialou.
Shang Yuwan has been in Kyoto for eleven years, and he always puts on a smile every time he meets Emperor Chengming. No wonder he reacts so strongly to Yue Zhu's few words.
After Ji Suxian said this, he sensed something was wrong.
"Brother Xiao, my sister-in-law seems to be extremely obsessed with 'living'."
Xiao Qingxu nodded. Ji Suxian could see it, so how could he not know it?
Ji Suxian looked at Shang Yuwan, seeing her brows relax more than ever before, "Is it because of fear..."
Did you witness your mother die in front of you when you were young, so you are particularly afraid of the "death" of your family members?
Xiao Qingxu stared at Shang Yuwan.
He felt that Wanwan had become obsessed with "living".
Xiao Qingxu's hands, hidden in his long sleeves, slowly clenched. It was highly likely that Madam Lu Xu had said something before her death that had prompted Shang Yuwan to start planning a way out for the Shang family at the age of five.
For example, words like "live well".
Every word and every sentence said by a very important person before his death is enough to trap a living person for the rest of his life.
Ji Suxian looked at the sky outside, which was about to rain down. "If it takes too long and she dies slowly, you will also suffer, right?"
She also discovered the opportunity of [Thunderstorm].
If she remembered correctly, there was also a thunderstorm on the second day after Shang Yuwan was reborn and arrived at Baijialou.
Xiao Qingxu asked: "Is there any solution?"
"hope."
Ji Suxian touched his chin and said, "We need to find a way to give her some stimulating hope."
She thought for a moment, "For example, the account book? Yang Qianmo? Let Cheng Yishui come over and act it out?"
Xiao Qingxu had found an opportunity to send the account books to the new letter room in Baijia Building before. It was a bit far to go back now, and Ji Suxian was afraid that Shang Yuwan would not be able to hold on until then.
"..." Ji Suxian narrowed his eyes and suddenly changed the subject, "Quqi people... I remember that Quqi had a prophet."
Xiao Qingxu didn't say anything.
Ji Suxian glanced at him and sneered.
"Look, is our landlord also feeling guilty?"
No wonder Xiao Qingxu was so tolerant of Qu Qiren. It seemed that Qu Qi's prophet used evil magic to help him.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Suxian and Xiao Qingxu suddenly looked towards the window together, where a strand of hair was swaying.
"You're sneaking around! Get out here!" Ji Suxian was in a bad mood right now.
A bearded man climbed in through the window and scratched his head, "The Emperor... I came to see Achan."
Ji Suxian frowned and was about to speak when Xiao Qingxu suddenly interrupted her.
"Achan is seriously injured. Do you have any solution?"
Wen Qijun tried every possible means to resurrect Shang Yuwan, even at the cost of his own life and that of his disciple Achan. Now that he is dead, he still allows Prince Yi Buyuan to come to Dayu to find someone to deliver something. He must have calculated that Shang Yuwan would suffer such a disaster.
Seeing Xiao Qingxu acting like this, Ji Suxian didn't bother asking about "Who is Ah Chan?" and said, "A Chan is unconscious now. We need to find something to wake her up."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Qingxu continued: "Perhaps what the prophet asked you to give me is the medicine to save Achan."
Yi Buyuan saw Shang Yuwan's face when Twelve was carrying her on his back. He took a step forward and asked worriedly, "Achan! How did it become like this?"
Xiao Qingxu said deliberately: "Achan is in a very bad condition now. Where is the thing the prophet asked you to give me?"
Seeing "Achan" in such a miserable state, he immediately believed Xiao Qingxu and said, "Then let's go to Yanmen to find him now!"
Xiao Qingxu paused and asked, "...people?"
Ji Suxian frowned, "In Yanmen?"
They are now not far from Yanmen City and can arrive in half a day.
Yi Buyuan said, "I forgot to tell you, the prophet asked me to hand you a person instead of an object."
"who?"
"That person seems to be called Yang——"
Xiao Qingxu and Ji Suxian's pupils gradually shrank.
"——Qianmo."
Yi Buyuan suddenly clapped his hands.
"Yes, it's him, Yang Qianmo."
