"You mean, they want to force the King of Pingxi to rebel? And then use the emperor to control the princes in the future?!" Xiao An's eyes widened, "But how... how can they force the King of Pingxi? The King of Pingxi has been able to guard the northwest for decades. He is not a good-for-nothing, how can he be easily manipulated by them?"
"But what if they killed the culprit of the major case in the past 20 years and raised the banner of the King of Pingxi?" Pang Yi said in a deep voice, "What do you think will be the situation of the King of Pingxi by then? Facing the suspicious His Majesty, how can he prove his innocence? Did the King of Pingxi have the intention to fight for power? Didn't His Majesty create the major case in the past 20 years? All the officials who had dealings with the King of Pingxi were killed or exiled?"
Xiao An was speechless: "This... this is too vicious!"
"This is just my guess." Pang Yi sighed. While looking at the setting sun, he said in a deep voice, "I hope it won't come to this."
Xiao An also stared at the bloody setting sun in silence, and silently reached out and held Pang Yi's hand.
Yes, don't let it go to this, no matter if it's Zhong Mingwei and Mei Ya, or her and Pang Yi. They finally have a peaceful life now, don't let anything happen again, she really can't stand any trouble.
"It's okay. I'm here." As if sensing Xiao An's nervousness and fear, Pang Yi held her hand with his backhand and leaned over to kiss Xiao An's forehead.
If it was normal, Xiao An would definitely scold Pang Yi. After all, they were still outside, but this time. Xiao An did not react at all, letting Pang Yi hold her and kiss her. She was silent for a long time, then looked up at Pang Yi: "Pang Yi, let's go up the mountain to burn incense tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Pang Yi was stunned for a moment, then agreed.
…
June 7th, the 33rd year of Jiasheng.
Changbai Mountain.
Ever since Kong Wenmin got the news that Fang Chengyin was injured, he has been rushing to Changbai Mountain day and night. In fact, there is no need for him to go in person. Fang Zuotang can just send a few guards and servants to pick her up. After all, Kong Wenmin is not an ordinary guard, and now he is Fang Zuotang's right-hand man. Fang Zuotang would not let him leave Ningguta easily, but Kong Wenmin insisted again and again, saying that his younger brother did not do his job well, and he, as an elder brother, must go there in person to make up for it. Fang Zuotang knew that he was a man of his word, so he did not stop him and told him to go early and come back early. In fact, Fang Zuotang was more relieved when Kong Wenmin went there in person.
Early that morning, when Kong Wenmin arrived at this shabby inn, Kong Wenjie was coaxing Fang Chengyin to eat.
"Just drink a little," Kong Wenjie squatted in front of the bed, and he was really talking until his mouth was broken. "I borrowed the stove from the inn to make pork bone soup, and I made it until you were afraid of getting greasy and skimmed off all the oil. Just drink a little, okay?"
Fang Chengyin turned her head inward, listening to Kong Wenjie's chatter for so long, she was almost annoyed. The wound on her back hurt so much, especially last night when she turned over in a daze while sleeping, as if her clothes and the wound were stuck together. Now, let alone moving, even breathing would make her grimace in pain. How could she have the heart to drink the pork bone soup? She just wanted to bite off a few pieces of meat from Kong Wenjie's body!
Kong Wenjie talked to Fang Chengyin for a long time but Fang Chengyin didn't pay any attention to him. He felt disappointed and guilty, but seeing that the pork bone soup was about to get cold, he was really anxious. So he put the pork bone soup on the table, walked to the bed, leaned over, wanting to see if Fang Chengyin was asleep. But he saw Fang Chengyin biting the floral pillow tightly. A large area of the pillow was wet, and he didn't know if it was wet by saliva or tears.
"Does the wound hurt?" Kong Wenjie panicked immediately and didn't care about anything else. He immediately lifted the quilt on Fang Chengyin's body. As soon as he saw the bright red on the pure white silk undershirt, Kong Wenjie was stunned. Then he looked away and looked at the girl's sweaty neck. Kong Wenjie turned his head away again. His temples were beating non-stop. He didn't dare to look at Fang Chengyin anymore. He immediately walked out, "I'll get a doctor for you right away!"
