Yu Tanqi looked at Jiang Shi's tired face and said worriedly, "You seem to have not rested for a long time. Go and rest."
Jiang Shi also knew that he didn't look good at the moment, so he whispered, "I'll call Doctor Xu over first to make sure you're okay, and then I'll go rest."
Otherwise, how could he feel at ease?
Xu Mubai quickly entered the room with a medicine box. After examining Yu Tanqi and taking her pulse, he said, "Miss Yu doesn't have a fever. From now on, just lie down and recuperate carefully. Be careful not to open the wound."
Jiang Shi asked, "How long will it take for Tan Qi's injury to heal?"
Xu Mubai considered it carefully and said, "At least a year and a half, at most three to five years. After all, her shoulder was pierced by an arrow. If she isn't taken care of carefully, she might develop a hidden disease."
Yu Tanqi's face turned pale, and Jiang Shi's face looked equally ugly.
Xu Mubai gave some instructions before leaving. Jiang Shi looked at Yu Tanqi and said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry, you will definitely get better. There will be no hidden disease left."
Yu Tanqi said obediently: "Yes."
Fortunately, my hand was not injured, only my shoulder.
Fortunately, no matter how bad the situation is, she can still use her hands.
Yu Tanqi realized later that her injured shoulder had been exposed.
The thin shoulder was wrapped in a white bandage, and the bandage on the wound was soaked with blood.
Apart from half of the shoulder, no more skin was exposed.
But Yu Tanqi still felt a little unnatural.
Although she didn't think this level of exposure was "exposing", the sight of her lying on the bed with her shoulders exposed looked somewhat erotic...
She lowered her eyes slightly, and her long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly.
Jiang Shi seemed to sense something, and politely withdrew his gaze, saying softly, "I'll go wash up, and let the servants take care of you first."
"Okay." She responded softly.
Jiang Shi tucked the quilt in for her and turned to leave.
He did not go to wash up immediately, but returned to the study to listen to Danqing's report.
Danqing said with a stern expression, "Master, we have found out that the man in black is a killer hired by the Jiang family, and the archer was sent by the Third Prince."
This wasn't the first time they teamed up to get rid of Jiang.
The third prince also tried to win over Jiang Shi, but was rejected and became angry and humiliated. He then colluded with the Jiang family and tried to kill him again and again.
The joint report by the candidates before the palace examination was their work.
Danqing felt heartbroken for Jiang Shi again.
The Jiang family was clearly his relatives, but they always wanted to harm him and even teamed up with outsiders to kill him.
Danqing couldn't help but think of the Xie family.
The Xie family is only Yu Tanqi's maternal family. In terms of blood relationship, they are not as close as the Jiang family and Jiang Shi, but they treat Yu Tanqi very well. One quarter of the dowry Yu Tanqi brought to the Wu'an Marquis Mansion was contributed by the Xie family.
Look at the Jiang family again. Over the years, they have never given Jiang Shi anything, and they have been thinking about plundering his property and title all day long. Every time they come to the Wu'an Marquis Mansion, they must take some things away. They are really shameless.
Jiang Shi had a blank expression on his face. He was neither surprised nor sad.
When he was young, he had some expectations for the Jiang family, but as time passed, their actions became more and more excessive, and he completely gave up hope.
He knew that he and the Jiang family could never truly live in harmony and friendship.
Ever since he could remember, Jiang Shi had been accepting "unfairness" calmly.
This "unfairness" is reflected in all aspects.
Others have parents, but he doesn't.
When others are young, they can play without restraint, but he cannot. He must seize the time to study and become stronger. He has no time to play.
His only family member is his grandmother.
After his grandmother passed away, he became a lonely man.
He also blamed God, wondering why his parents had sacrificed so much for the Wanjin Kingdom and protected millions of people, but in the end they died at the hands of villains.
Why good people don't always live long.
When his grandmother discovered that he was wrong, she did not reprimand him harshly. Instead, she took him, who was only ten years old at the time, away from the Wu'an Marquis Mansion and went to the countryside.
Jiang Shi saw a world beyond the splendor.
There are no tall and magnificent houses here, most of them are tiled houses, and there are even a few families living in thatched houses.
A group of people were busy in the fields, including men, women, and even children under ten years old.
It was October, the weather was cold, and the breath I exhaled was steaming.
Jiang Shi was dressed in gorgeous clothes and didn't feel the cold.
They were dressed simply and very thinly, and their faces were covered in sweat.
Old Madam Jiang took Jiang Shi on a walk across the muddy ground, saying, "This world is inherently unfair. Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and mice give birth to mice that dig holes. Your father is the Marquis of Wu'an, so you were born the Marquis of Wu'an's son. You live a life of luxury, pampered and comfortable, without having to worry about making a living."
"But not everyone's father is the Marquis of Wu'an. Look at that boy planting rice in the field. He looks even smaller than you, but he's already tanned from working in the fields with his parents. Doesn't he want to play? Of course he does, but life doesn't allow him to."
"Although you rarely leave the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, every time you do, it's to attend palace banquets or study at the Imperial College. You only come into contact with wealthy children. They dress splendidly, travel in carriages, and are always followed by a swarm of servants. They spend money lavishly, unaware of the hardships of life."
Jiang Shi pursed his lips and saw a woman bending over to work with a baby still in swaddling clothes on her back.
In the countryside, even women who have just given birth have to work.
He suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
"We are all human beings, but because of our different backgrounds, we have different destinies. Officials serve the people. Since the powerful enjoy the support of the people, they should contribute to them, protect them, and make their lives better."
"People are always greedy. Where there are conflicts of interest, there will be wars, there will be killing, and there will inevitably be bloodshed and casualties. Your parents chose to fight in the battlefield not only for those who have a hard life, but also to protect you and provide you with a better life in the future."
Old Madam Jiang said a lot, and Jiang Shi listened silently, figuring out a lot.
While he was complaining about the unfairness of God, there were people who were having a harder time than him.
Since God is unfair, he will go against it.
You have to try it, what if you succeed?
It can't be any worse than his current situation.
Jiang Shi's eyes were dark and unclear.
He gave the Jiang family many chances, but they were never satisfied and never gave up.
Jiang Shi used up the last bit of kindness he had towards them.
"Collect all evidence of their conspiracy to frame me and hand it over to the Supreme Court Minister Du Boling."
"yes!"
Danqing was a little excited. His master was finally willing to punish the Jiang family. He had been unhappy with them for a long time. Both the old and the young were extremely greedy and vicious. Even if they died ten times, it would not be enough to vent his anger!
He looked at Jiang Shi's tired face and said worriedly, "Master, you haven't slept for two days. Take care of yourself and go get some rest."
After Yu Tanqi was shot and fell into coma, Jiang Shi stayed by her bedside and never left. He didn't close his eyes for two days and two nights, and his eyes were bloodshot.
