"Wait, we'll rescue you right now! You all must come out alive!"
Sikong Zhan stood up, his face turned even paler, and he walked quickly out of the passage. When he passed by Lin Jinghan, he didn't even stop, but just said "wait" in a low voice and left.
Having just been thrown down by Sikong Zhan, Lin Jinghan had to stand with difficulty holding on to the mountain wall. At this moment, she thought Sikong Zhan would take her out with him, but no, Sikong Zhan had no intention of taking her out at all!
She looked at Sikong Zhan in disbelief as he walked away: Did he forget that she was still a patient? He actually ignored the injury on his leg and just dumped her here. Could it be that he wanted her, who couldn't get out of bed, to walk back by herself?
Lin Jinghan felt very aggrieved. The piercing pain from her knees made it impossible for her to stand any longer. She had no choice but to spread the blanket on the ground and sit down alone, holding onto the mountain wall.
Without a blanket, she felt cold physically and even colder mentally in this cold corridor.
It's not that I haven't thought about using the medical space to heal the injury on her leg and walk out by myself, but this will undoubtedly expose her secret, which is really not worth the loss.
In the end, she could only curse Sikong Zhan countless times in her heart, curled up alone, and waited for someone to rescue her.
Sikong Zhan had not walked far when he suddenly vomited blood. The black blood spilled onto the ground in the passage and disappeared after a moment.
He knew very well that the internal force he had just used had already triggered the poison in his body. Being able to force himself out of Lin Jinghan's sight before vomiting blood was already his limit. He had to immediately find Doctor Ran to suppress the poison for him.
It's not that he hasn't thought about asking Lin Jinghan to detoxify him, but in the current situation, Lin Jinghan has no medicine. Even if she can detoxify him, it would be like a skilled cook without rice. If he falls in the passage and Lin Jinghan is unable to walk, then he will most likely die of poisoning in the passage!
Therefore, he must go out as soon as possible and ask Dr. Ran to help suppress the toxicity. At the same time, he must find someone to bring Lin Jinghan out and let her detoxify him as soon as possible.
Besides, this was the reason why he married her. He was busy with the mining business here before, and he also wanted to have more control over her so that he could let her detoxify him without worry. That's why he never confronted Lin Jinghan.
However, now, with the situation pressing, he had no choice but to implement this plan early. That woman cared so much about his soldiers, so she would surely do her best to treat him, right?
Thinking this way, Sikong Zhan finally walked out of the passage before he fainted. Before fainting, he did not forget to order: "Go in and save people!"
Sikong Zhan fainted, and the people outside were in a panic. Mu Wenyao ordered the Jingnan Army to go into the passage to rescue him, and personally carried Sikong Zhan to the wounded camp to find Doctor Ran.
Doctor Ran has been saving lives since he arrived here, without a single moment's rest. He even eats his meals in the wounded soldiers' camp, making do with a quick meal.
An hour ago, he finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell down, which scared the Jingnan soldiers who were helping to rescue him. They quickly carried him to the nearest tent.
When Mu Wenyao rushed to the wounded camp, he didn't see Doctor Ran. He hurried to the place where Doctor Ran was resting. He didn't care that Doctor Ran was still asleep and directly pulled him up, "Your Highness, the poison has taken effect, wake up quickly!"
"What? The poison is taking effect?" Doctor Ran suddenly shuddered, no longer sleepy, and with red eyes, he hurriedly examined Sikong Zhan. "I told you that the prince's poison is currently in a weakly suppressed state, and he can't use his internal energy, otherwise the poison may take effect. What happened? The prince wanted to use his internal energy, and you didn't stop him!"
"What's the point of saying this now? Let's control the poison quickly!" Mu Wenyao was extremely anxious: the prince just went into the passage with the princess, how could he know why the prince used his internal force?
Oh, the princess! The princess is still in the corridor! Mu Wenyao stood up suddenly, gave Dr. Ran a few detailed instructions, and left in a hurry.
The prince was poisoned and the princess could not walk, so she must have been left in the passage. He found Shiqin and took her into the passage.
A part of the Jingnan Army had already entered the passage.
The moment she heard the footsteps, Lin Jinghan sat up straight and carefully surveyed the situation in the passage. She no longer looked pitiful as before: if people knew that she was abandoned here by Prince Jingnan, she would have no place to stay in Prince Jingnan's mansion.
You can show your pitiful look to others, to those who need your sympathy, but you must never show it to your subordinates. That will only make you lose your prestige, which is really unwise.
Of course, if she hadn't been shivering from the cold, the costume might have been more convincing.
"I am Sun Geng, your humble servant, here to pay my respects to the princess!" The leader of the Jingnan Army brought his men over. After seeing Lin Jinghan, he walked over with his head lowered and saluted her respectfully.
"A gap has been opened in the passage here. You just need to bring people to expand the gap so that people can pass through and rescue the people inside." Lin Jinghan was so cold that her teeth began to chatter, but she gritted her teeth, not letting herself show the slightest ugliness, and gestured carefully at the small hole made by Sikong Zhan on the stone not far away.
"Thank you, Princess, for your reminder! I will go and save them right away!" Sun Geng bowed deeply to Lin Jinghan again: The princess was so cold, but she still dragged her sick body here to save people. In order not to make them worry, she also tried hard not to let them find out that she was unwell. How could he not be moved by such a good princess!
When Mu Wenyao arrived, the Jingnan Army who had arrived first were using tools to chisel on the stone, trying to expand the hole.
Looking at the neat hole in the stone, Mu Wenyao instantly understood: This is why the prince was poisoned!
"Princess, you've suffered!" Looking at Lin Jinghan, whose lips were blue and purple from the cold, Mu Wenyao suddenly felt distressed. He turned to Shiqin and said anxiously:
"Shiqin, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and bring the princess back to the tent and take good care of her!"
Shiqin hurriedly walked up to Lin Jinghan and picked her up.
"Thank you!" Lin Jinghan smiled at Mu Wenyao, and then said to Shiqin, "Pick up the blanket and cover me with it."
Before Shiqin could do anything, Mu Wenyao's hands were faster than his brain. He picked up the blanket, shook off the dirt on it, and carefully covered Lin Jinghan with the side where she had just sat.
This scene reminded Lin Jinghan of him covering her head with a veil. For a moment, she felt a little uncomfortable and abruptly diverted everyone's attention. "It's so cold. Go back quickly. I need some ginger soup to warm myself up."
