"Hey, wake up."
Sudan Ruo immediately became alert when he saw the unfamiliar decorations and faces around him.
"Where am I? Did you save me?"
The village chief came up and replied:
"General Su, this is Ningyu Village on the outskirts of Ninglan City. I am the village chief. A village woman came to the river to wash clothes and encountered you. She fished you out of the river. Fortunately, you are a lucky person.
The doctor just said that you and your unborn baby are safe and sound!"
Sultan wanted to stand up and thank the village chief, but was stopped by the village chief.
"General Su, when you and your father were here before, you always took care of our Ningyu Village. We are so grateful to you. Now we are so lucky to have saved you!
You absolutely cannot do this!"
Sudan Ruo had just woken up and was weak, so he had to follow the village chief's instructions and sit back on the hospital bed.
"Thank you, village chief, for saving me."
"Alas, General Su, there's no need to thank me. This place is remote, so just rest here and don't worry about anything else."
Sudan understood the meaning of the village chief's words and looked at him gratefully.
In the palace.
Qu Cheng'an has been in a coma, and the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital are very busy.
Wen Xiang originally planned to deal with Qi Xinyuan directly, but was stopped by Qu Xiaotan.
"Lord Qi is a minister of the court after all. It would be better for him to wait until my brother wakes up and then deal with it personally."
Qi Xinyuan looked at Qu Xiaotan deeply, and was then taken back to his residence by the people brought by Qu Xiaotan and kept under guard.
Only after dealing with Qi Xinyuan's affairs did he remember to care about Qu Cheng'an.
She walked over to Qu Cheng'an and saw that he was pale and his head was tightly wrapped in gauze, so she asked the doctor in the room:
"What happened to my royal brother? Is his life in danger?"
"Your Highness, His Majesty suffered a severe head injury, and we are doing our best to save him."
When Qu Xiaotan heard this, he immediately shouted angrily at the imperial physician:
"Your Majesty must be awakened. Otherwise, you will all be buried with your brother!"
The imperial physician became even more concerned when he heard this.
Qu Xiaotan stayed by Qu Cheng'an's side all the time.
Qu Cheng'an was in a coma for several days, and the affairs of the court were piled up.
Qu Xiaotan had no choice but to be forced to take charge of the government for Qu Cheng'an.
Even the court officials had lost confidence that Qu Cheng'an would wake up, and only Qu Xiaotan had been taking good care of Qu Cheng'an.
That day, Qu Xiaotan was helping him wipe his hands and face.
"Royal brother, please wake up soon, I am almost overwhelmed by your messy government affairs.
I don’t know how the emperor’s sister-in-law is doing now, and whether she is still alive and well.”
Qu Xiaotan was staring to the side in a daze, when she suddenly saw Qu Cheng'an's fingers move and his eyelashes tremble slightly as if he was about to wake up.
Qu Xiaotan quickly called for the imperial physician to come outside.
As he spoke, Qu Cheng'an opened his eyes.
"water......"
Qu Xiaotan quickly poured Qu Cheng'an a glass of water, helped Qu Cheng'an up and fed him.
The imperial physician came into the room and took Qu Cheng'an's pulse, saying that he was no longer in danger and only needed careful nursing care.
After drinking the water, Qu Chengan asked:
"Where's Sudan Ruo? Has he been recovered?"
Qu Xiaotan lowered her head and dared not speak.
Qu Cheng'an knew at a glance that Sudan Ruo had probably run far away.
In the original situation, the horse lost control and ran away aimlessly, and it was unknown whether the Sultan was safe and sound.
Qu Cheng'an was extremely worried when he thought that something might happen to the Sultan.
"Have you sent anyone to look for him?"
Qu Xiaotan responded timidly:
"My sister...sent people to look for it, but they only found the remains of a horse and a carriage on the edge of a cliff..."
When Qu Chengan heard this, his blood rushed up and he stood up from the bed, asking in surprise:
"What did you say?"
As soon as Qu Cheng'an finished speaking, he felt dizzy and almost fell down. Fortunately, Qu Xiaotan was quick to step forward and help him.
After Qu Cheng'an sat back on the bed, he held his head and felt a splitting headache, and his face became even paler.
He forced himself to say to Qu Xiaotan:
"Go find him! If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his body!"
Five years later.
Qu Cheng'an took his two children on a secret visit to understand the people's sentiments.
He said it was a secret visit, but in fact he was going to see Sudan Ruo under the guise of a secret visit.
Qu Cheng'an had long been unable to sit still in the palace. For the past five years, he felt that he was living in torment all the time.
Everyone said that if the Sultan died at the foot of the cliff, his body would have been eaten by wild dogs and would never be found.
Qu Cheng'an was unwilling to believe it and never gave up looking.
Qu Cheng'an trained Qu Xiaotan to handle court affairs, but Qu Xiaotan was not very smart.
Qu Cheng'an could only ask Qi Xinyuan to support him from the side.
When Qu Cheng'an just woke up and couldn't find Su Danruo, he had the thought of killing Qi Xinyuan many times.
But if all those close to Sultan died because of him, even Sonny would be gone.
Now only Qi Xinyuan is left.
If even Qi Xinyuan was gone, the Sultan might really have no attachment to the palace anymore.
However, Qu Cheng'an knew that Qi Xinyuan hated him. In order to prevent him from having any inappropriate thoughts, Qu Cheng'an sent a lot of guards to the Marquis' Mansion to protect his mother's safety.
Qi Xinyuan could only stay by Qu Xiaotan's side and support her in managing the government.
Over the past five years, Qu Cheng'an has been running out from time to time to look for Su Danruo's whereabouts.
