Chapter 247 The mystery is revealed
Song Ci and others behind the yard were also busy, boiling medicine for the wounded and not giving up on any of the injured who were carried in.
Several people had lost limbs and limbs, and had lost a lot of blood. Song Ci used acupuncture to stop the bleeding. She suddenly felt lucky to have Lao Gui as her master, otherwise she would have been helpless to watch everyone fall before her, without any way to do anything.
The battle was in the middle of the night when it suddenly started to rain.
Song Ci looked up at the dark sky. The rain fell on her face, winding down from her eyelashes to her pointed chin.
The sound of fighting in the front yard became much quieter.
Song Ci knew that the battle was nearing its end, but he didn't know whether the Great Zhou or the foreigners would win.
She clenched the dagger in her hand. If... if the Great Zhou was defeated, this would be the last resort.
Wan Xiangtian'er behind them was holding a dagger in her hand. Everyone had a very serious expression on their face and had the same idea.
He would rather die than give the other party any chance to humiliate him or her.
....
Through the huge rain curtain, faint sounds came from the front yard.
"We win, we win, we win!"
Song Ci turned to look at Tian'er in surprise, "I, I didn't hear it wrong."
Only after receiving Tian'er's affirmative nod did she burst into tears of joy.
The battle that lasted for so long is finally over!
They can all go home! Finally, they can go home!
Pei Ji looked on with a heavy face as he watched the bodies of the dead soldiers being counted and arranged in order in the house.
Everyone's identity is recorded.
No one in the field was smiling at this moment. The life that was still alive just a moment ago died in front of them in an instant. How could this be a damn feeling?
Some people were crying silently, some were crying with their heads in their hands, and everyone was feeling bad.
After recording the number of casualties and their identities, the blood-soaked paper was handed to Pei Ji. Looking at the recorded figures, he said in a heavy voice: "Three thousand of our soldiers died this time. The foreigners... were completely wiped out!"
"Everyone, pack up, let's go home!"
"I will never break my promise. I, Pei Ji, will be responsible for the families of these people in the future."
After he finished speaking, he turned around resolutely. He was almost unable to hold on at this moment, but considering the soldiers' mood that had been holding on, if he didn't leave now, he would probably be exposed.
As soon as he left the door and returned to the house, Pei Ji vomited a mouthful of blood.
Alin rushed out in a hurry to find Song Ci.
She smiled while waiting for Song Ci to come. A Lin frowned, "Miss Song, the young master has vomited blood, why are you still smiling?"
"He's vomiting blood, which means the poison is almost gone. Look at the blood, it's pitch black, it's all poison."
Ah Lin's eyes widened with excitement, "Really!"
Song Ci smiled: "Really!"
Pei Ji glanced at A Lin with his beautiful eyes, and the other party walked out tactfully. Now there were only two people left in the room.
Song Ci stared at Pei Ji for a moment, feeling uncomfortable. The way he looked at her was so gentle, almost too gentle. She didn't know how to face Pei Ji yet, and in a panic, she turned around and tried to push the door open and leave.
"You kissed me and you want to leave?"
With just one sentence, Song Ci, who wanted to escape, was stopped.
"You, how did you know!" As soon as she asked this question, she wanted to slap herself. In the room, besides herself, there was only Tian'er with her back turned. Pei Ji must have woken up at that time, but his body was unable to move.
She is so stupid.
Seeing her expression change drastically, Pei Ji smiled and said, "You weren't shy when you kissed me, why are you shy now?"
"I...I was trying to save you. You're talking as if I took advantage of you..."
"That was my first kiss."
Following the sound, Pei Ji was still very weak, with red eyes, like a good man who had been bullied.
Song Ci just felt weird in her heart, as if she had teased someone, taken advantage of him, and then took advantage of him without any recognition.
Seeing her expression, Pei Ji continued his efforts.
"Kissing is something that only husband and wife can do. Song Ci, how are you going to compensate me?"
How would Song Ci know how to compensate?
"How about you marry me?"
After these words were spoken, Song Ci was stunned, and stood there as if her whole body was stiff. Was that... Pei Ji's confession?
Seeing her rare dull look, Pei Ji smiled and slowly walked up to her, bent down and looked her in the eye.
"When I first met you, you saved my life, but that wasn't the first time. I've already repaid you." He raised his hand and gently held Song Ci's hand, holding it close to his chest, his tone gentle, "But now, a rotten man like me has saved my life, and I also want to fight for myself and ask for a presumption. Please, when you take my pulse, can you also diagnose my lovesickness?"
Song Ci's mind was filled with stars as if they had suddenly exploded. The stars were dotting around in his mind and he couldn't make any sense of it. He just nodded subconsciously.
The other person chuckled, accompanied by a reassuring scent of cedar. The candlelight in the room flickered, and the two shadows merged into one.
Outside the house, Alin rubbed his hands nervously and didn't even notice when Wanxiang came to him.
She slapped Alin so hard that he almost jumped up.
"You, what are you doing? You scared me to death."
Wanxiang looked at him like a thief and curled her lips, "Why are you so scared? Have you done something bad?"
"No, I didn't." He glanced towards the house.
Wanxiang followed his gaze and decided not to get involved with this person. The young lady hadn't eaten for a day, so she had to deliver something to her.
Before she had taken a few steps, she was stopped by A Lin. Seeing him grab her hand, Wan Xiang stamped her feet in anger and almost spilled the hot porridge she had just cooked.
"I'm sorry! But Miss Wanxiang, you can't go in at this moment."
Wanxiang asked back angrily, "Why not? Give me a reason."
"Because...I'm afraid that in the future your young lady will be the wife of our prince."
Although she had thought of thousands of possibilities in her mind, Wanxiang was still shocked by his words, "What...what Madam?" She began to stutter.
The two of them snuggled together for a while, and then Song Ci and Pei Ji sat down at the table.
Song Ci asked a question and gave an answer that he thought was almost correct.
"Have you woken up a long time ago?" Her eyes were vague. It was her fault that she said so many things she shouldn't have said at that time. Now she didn't know how to face Pei Ji.
Seeing her like this, Pei Ji knew that she must be embarrassed, so he just smiled and said, "No."
Knowing that he was lying to her, Song Ci felt a little happier in her heart.
"What did you mean when you said just now that this is not the first time you owe me your life?" Song Ci asked her doubts, and she vaguely guessed that this matter might be related to her bracelet.
