A series of actions, well-organized and beautifully done.
Ji Yunxi looked at it a few more times.
Wu Weian stood beside her, followed her gaze, lowered his head slightly, and seemed to be thinking about something.
Ji Mingshuang's sword wound was indeed not serious, and Wanxiang treated it for him quickly.
The prince now has a high fever and is unconscious.
But the wounds on his body were treated thoroughly, and the doctor who was called in overnight took his pulse and said that there was no problem. He said that he would wake up naturally in a day or two after the fever subsided and he had enough sleep.
Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief, closed the door, and left the side room.
Ji Mingshuang lived in the room next to Ji Mingyan, and the group sent him there.
Ji Yunxi asked, "Seventh Brother, what exactly happened?"
Ji Mingshuang was not in a good condition. His face, which had fascinated countless women in the capital, was now black, and his beard on his chin had not been shaved for many days, with stubble showing.
The robe on his body was torn here and there.
Xuezhu stood behind, looking Ji Mingshuang up and down, clenched her fists, and forced herself to look away.
Ji Mingshuang thought about his experiences these days and sighed: "It's a long story..."
At the beginning of this spring, shortly after his third sister and Wu Weian and his party went to Liangzhou, the emperor sent the prince to Qingzhou on a secret visit.
It is said that Qingzhou is now a mixed bag, and the emperor does not trust others, so he can only hand it over to the prince.
Because it was an incognito visit, the Crown Prince's trip was kept secret. Even the Empress and his elder brother were unaware of the truth, believing only that the Emperor had sent the Crown Prince to Cangshan to pray for the late Emperor.
On the eve of departure, Ji Mingshuang was summoned into the palace by the emperor and asked to accompany the prince to Qingzhou.
Time was very tight and he didn't even have time to go back to the Ji family.
But before they reached Qingzhou, they were ambushed.
In order to allow the prince to escape safely, the prince's guards used themselves as bait to delay the enemy, allowing Ji Mingshuang to successfully take the prince away and escape all the way to Liangzhou.
It was already late at night. Ji Mingshuang hadn't slept for several days and was injured, so he looked a little unwell.
Ji Yunxi roughly understood what happened, but without asking for details, she let her seventh brother go back to his room and rest.
Ji Mingyan was worried about Ming Shuang and insisted on going in to accompany her.
Naturally, Ji Mingshuang kicked him out of the room.
Xuezhu was also standing far away outside Ji Ming's double doors, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
Don't you want to wash this guy?
Don’t you want to deal with the torn clothes on him?
Just like that, fell asleep?
But in the end, Xuezhu still left.
Ji Yunxi and Wu Weian walked back to the bedroom in silence.
Suddenly, Wu Wei'an said, "I taught you."
Ji Yunxi was thinking about the Crown Prince and was confused for a moment: "What?"
Wu Wei'an: "Xuezhu knows how to bandage. I taught her myself."
Ji Yunxi: “???”
Shouldn't we be discussing the Crown Prince's distress now?
Wu Wei'an added, "I was also the one who taught Xuezhu the Qinggong sword technique."
Ji Yunxi: "Oh."
Wu Weian: "Xuezhu was raised by me. I raised her as my own child, so she is your child as well."
So I hope his wife can be more careful and not pay too much attention to Xuezhu, but pay more attention to him.
Of course, he didn't say this out loud, because saying it out loud might bring disaster.
Ji Yunxi: “…?”
Chapter 82 Swing
Ji Yunxi gave him a meaningful look, skipped the topic, and said with a slightly frown, "The Crown Prince and Seventh Brother left the capital, and I haven't received any news."
Ji Yunxi arranged a lot of people in Shangjing City, but she didn't learn about it until the prince was seriously injured tonight.
Even though this was done in secret, and the Crown Prince was openly going to Cangshan to pray for blessings, Ji Yunxi didn't even know that the Crown Prince was going to Cangshan to pray for blessings.
When she mentioned this, Wu Weian's expression became slightly serious.
It was already late at night, and the yard was silent, with only the occasional chirping of insects.
The wind blows, the shadows of the trees sway, and everything is silent.
The darkness cast a gloomy and terrifying veil over the trees that were vibrant during the day.
Wu Wei'an looked at it and said, "I haven't received it either."
"However," he changed his tone and turned his head to look at Ji Yunxi beside him, "I took the initiative to cut off most of the contact with Shangjing City."
Ji Yunxi: “?”
The two walked side by side towards the bedroom, neither of them walking fast.
Wu Weian: "As soon as we leave, His Majesty will certainly conduct a comprehensive investigation of the capital, eager to dig out our spies and then eliminate them one by one. Therefore, before I left, I issued an order to cut off most of the contact. After all, like in the case of the Crown Prince, by the time we receive the news, the Crown Prince will have left the capital, so even if we know it, it will be of little use."
Of course, the most important thing is that Wu Weian does not have to be the crown prince.
He keeps those who are important to him with him.
As for those he could not take with him, such as his father and second brother, he had instructed them in advance to be careful while he was away from Beijing and not to go anywhere else except home and the six ministries.
If he couldn't even think of a way to refuse and had to go anyway, and something really happened, Wu Weian wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
His father is his elder, and although his second brother is a few years younger than him, he is already old enough to start a family and build a career.
No one can protect anyone else for a lifetime, everyone must have the ability to protect themselves.
Without the ability to protect themselves, it is only a matter of time before something happens to them. The most Wu Weian can do is avenge them afterwards.
Ji Yunxi sighed softly, understanding what Wu Weian meant: "I'm just a little worried about big brother."
Wu Wei'an chuckled: "Madam, you might as well worry about me instead of worrying about my brother."
In his opinion, Ji Mingxi was the least worrying person.
This person has always known how to protect himself best.
Moreover, now that the Ji family's brothers and sisters are not in the capital, and the prince is not here either, Ji Mingxi doesn't have to worry too much, and he will probably live a more relaxed life.
