Ping Shizhi was lying paralyzed in Zhao Wu's small room near the stove, blood dripping from his body. He had barely managed to stop the bleeding, but he had already passed out.
Wang Yi quickly took out the hemostatic medicine and asked Zhao Wu to help take off his clothes and then bandage him carefully.
"They're all sword wounds. What happened? Something happened in the city?"
"I heard someone attacked the city by force."
"What about Mo Naihe?"
"Without the city lord, it's a little difficult to resist."
How did Zhao Wu know that Mo Naihe was not here?
Wang Yi's thought had just come to her mind when it was quickly interrupted. Ping Shizhi's injury was very serious, and she had to concentrate her mind and help.
After working for more than an hour, everything was finally dealt with, and Ping Shizhi also recovered from his coma and fell into a deep sleep.
It can be considered as saving a life.
"Thank you, Yi'er. Without you, Uncle Ping and I really don't know what we would do."
Zhao Wu was silent for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Wang Yi's hand and thanked her sincerely.
Wang Yi was startled, then dodged without leaving a trace, lowering her head to pack her things: "Manager Zhao, please don't call me Yi'er. Call me Wang Yi or Sister Wang."
He paused, then continued: "...Yier, are you and the prince..."
"I told you not to call me Yier." Wang Yi frowned. She was worried about Zheng Yeheng's safety all day long. She didn't want to mention him, nor did she want anyone to call her so intimately.
I'm almost forty years old, what's the point of being so happy?
"Anyone with a discerning eye can see what's going on between the prince and me. So, Shopkeeper Zhao, you'd better find your other half as soon as possible. By the way, I have prepared the medicine for you a long time ago, but I never brought it to you. It's a good opportunity to give it to you now." The poisonous insects that Wang Yi roasted for Zhao Wu have been crushed into powder. Thirty packets are enough for a full term. After taking it, all his sterilization symptoms are guaranteed to disappear.
"...Do you hate me so much?"
"You're overthinking it. Shopkeeper Zhao, we're just good friends. With these medicines, you can find another woman to start a family with."
I won’t be too greedy for my son.
But she didn't say the last sentence, for fear of hurting Zhao Wu. After all, he hadn't taken the medicine yet, so he didn't know how effective Wang Yi's medicine was.
Zhao Wu wanted to say something, but seeing her resolute expression, he smiled self-deprecatingly.
Okay, I get it. It seems she and the prince are really together. Otherwise, why would she be so cruel to me?
Zhao Wu's eyes kept changing as he stared at Wang Yi's profile. It was unknown what he was thinking, but his hands were clenched tightly, and his pale skin made people feel a little scared.
It was already noon. Li Liugen came to find Wang Yi for dinner, but couldn't find him. So he came to Tielu according to the guidance of the refugees who had seen Wang Yi.
"Mom, what happened?"
As soon as Li Liugen stepped in, he saw Zhao Wu with his head down and his mother packing things.
"It's okay. Your Grandpa Ping is injured. Let Mom take a look at him."
Just after he said a few words, Zhao Lixiang came out with warm water and was about to change the gauze on Ping Shizhi. When he saw Li Liugen, his face turned red like a shrimp.
Wang Yi looked at the girl and then at Li Liugen. Although the latter looked normal, his red ears showed his uneasiness.
I'm afraid he came here on purpose just to see Zhao Lixiang.
"Liu Gen has been doing very well in his studies recently. I heard that he has started to memorize the Thousand Character Classic and the Hundred Family Names?" Zhao Wu was trying to make small talk, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
"Yes, Uncle Zhao." The children in the family had all been learning from Shoucheng, and now that they had moved, they needed to learn to read and do arithmetic. Since no other teacher could be found, Li Shoucheng was the right person.
Li Liugen looked at Zhao Lixiang from the side, thinking to himself, this girl is so beautiful. My mother once mentioned that she wanted to marry her...
Wang Yi had given each of his sons one of the enlightenment pills he had received from the gift box he had opened some time ago, and his two grandsons had also received some. Naturally, they looked much smarter now. However, Liu Gen had been very quiet, so it wasn't very noticeable.
The smarter you are, the better you can tell what your family members are doing.
For example, Lan Miao and the fifth brother would whisper to each other and hide in the firewood pile when they had nothing to do.
For example, he saw Zhao Lixiang's deliberate staring and Zhao Wu's occasional questioning, which was done to create opportunities for the two of them.
His family might be trying to match him up with Zhao Lixiang.
He is happy with it.
Mother and Zhao Wu were talking again when Li Liugen walked out of the barracks.
Suddenly, he saw Zhao Lixiang standing not far away and waving at him.
"Brother Liugen, come here!"
Li Liugen actually hadn't really spoken to Zhao Lixiang alone yet. He couldn't help but think of the scene where his fifth brother and Lan Miao were whispering together. He blushed again and walked towards Zhao Lixiang unconsciously.
Inside the tent, Wang Yi stood up again. "I'll put this medicine here. Take one dose daily. Dissolve it in hot water and drink."
Wang Yi looked after Ping Shizhi for a while and then wanted to leave.
If Zhao Wu hadn't repeatedly wanted to ask her about her and Zheng Yeheng, she might have stayed a little longer. But her attitude was very clear, and Zhao Wu was still a little persistent, which made her very annoyed.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Wu suddenly got angry and grabbed her arm: "Yier, you can't leave."
Wang Yi frowned and looked up, feeling that Zhao Wu looked strange.
"What are you doing?"
"Come with me. I will give you wealth and glory in the future. Forgive me for not discussing this with you in advance. It was Zheng Yeheng who forced me to do this."
"Let me go!" Wang Yi raised his hand, and the silver needles were shining.
"It's okay to let you go, but Liugen has already left with Lixiang. Do you want to abandon him and leave alone?"
Zhao Wu looked at Wang Yi with sad eyes. He didn't want to have such a big conflict with Wang Yi.
But Wang Yi didn't give him a chance and didn't like him.
He had to use force.
"You actually captured Liugen? How despicable! So it was your plan to match Lixiang up? This is the first time I've seen you look like this. Zhao Wu, have you been pretending for so long?" This was the first time that Wang Yi felt the embarrassment of having no place to display her skills. Liugen was captured by them, and there was no way she could run away on her own.
"I said I want to marry you and treat you well. I'm not pretending. Yier, marry me and come with me. I will treat you well." Zhao Wu approached again, his handsome face sad and gloomy, as if he was about to cry, as if he was begging her.
Unable to obtain love, he felt resentful. However, his actions led him to betray Zheng Yeheng with Wang Yi.
Even if Wang Yi didn't make a firm confession to Zheng Yeheng, it was impossible for her to stab him in the back.
The silver needle turned from its tip pointing at Zhao Wu to facing himself. Wang Yi stepped back indifferently and looked at Zhao Wu:
"I am already the prince's wife, it is impossible for me to marry you. Zhao Wu, you may get my body, but I am afraid you can't get my heart."
Zhao Wu smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head.
"I want all seven of your sons, but because of our bond, I'm only taking one."
"Liu Gen is young, he will know who his father is that he can rely on in the future."
"As for you."
"I want to live and die with you. Even if I die, you must die beside me."
