After Lin Hanyan finished speaking, Li Xiu did not answer her. He just looked at the roof quietly, not knowing what he was thinking. For a long time, Li Xiu endured the soreness all over her body and the pain in two secret parts of her body before she stood up. He went out and brought a basin of hot water, and carefully scrubbed Lin Hanyan, who couldn't move and had marks all over his body.
After all, those who have been mothers have much greater endurance. Li Xiu's recovery was much faster than that of Lin Hanyan, who was only experiencing personnel affairs for the second time. Although the injury this time was more serious than that of Lin Hanyan, her physical condition was much better, and she was able to get out of bed after just a while.
Looking at Lin Hanyan, who is getting thinner and thinner these days, and knowing what kind of life the Princess Jing, who she seems to respect on the surface, is actually living, she really feels sorry for her. Her former husband, King Jing, not only did not do any of the responsibilities that a husband should bear, but he almost ruined her life.
Before he entered the house, he didn't even have a place to complain. Everything can only be endured silently, and all encounters can only result in broken teeth and blood. After not having a good day, she became a widow, but even if she wanted to marry again, she was not qualified. It's hard to find a man who can be considerate of her, but she can only live in such a secretive way, with no way to make it public.
The bitterness and sadness in Lin Hanyan's words just now came from Li Xiu, who came from a scholarly family, so how could he not hear it? But Li Xiu didn't know how to persuade this miserable girl. But even though she felt sorry for this girl, Li Xiu also knew that there were some things that she was powerless to do.
She could only place her trust in the King of England, who could really save this poor girl one day. As for his future, Li Xiu could only smile bitterly. A widow who needs help from her brother-in-law to support her two children, what future can she talk about? For him now, all he can do is take one step at a time.
Huang Qiong, who left, naturally did not know the conversation between the two women after he left. What he didn't even know was that just as he was leaving in a hurry, a man emerged from a bamboo forest at the entrance of the courtyard where Lin Hanyan lived, staring at his back with hateful eyes. This person is none other than the eldest son of King Jing.
Since Lin Hanyan never consummated her husband's marriage after getting married, it was natural that she might give birth to a son. The mother of the king's eldest son was originally a maid in Prince Jing's mansion, and later became Prince Jing's maid. Before King Jing's wedding, he was canonized as a rattan for giving birth to King Jing's eldest son, and this was how he gained his fame.
Because his mother was naturally mean and petty, she was not liked by King Jing, and she only got lucky once when she was drunk. Therefore, although the eldest son was born to King Jing early, he was not given a title until King Jing's wedding. But only one vine was given. According to the customization, among the prince's concubines, it was the lowest title vine among the concubines.
Not even a child was able to get in. The mother was not welcomed, and even the eldest son of the king was not liked by King Jing. However, although the eldest son of the king does not seem to like to talk on weekdays. However, under the guidance of his mother, he had a lot of hatred for the people in the palace, especially his aunt.
A few days ago, his mother was given a lesson by Huang Qiong and Lin Hanyan. She was slapped by Lin Hanyan herself. Although she was much more honest, she was even more hatred towards Lin Hanyan, the princess. These days, I often complain behind my back in front of my son. It also encouraged the eldest son of the king to face the hatred of Lin Hanyan, his aunt, from his heart.
Today, he was originally sent to Lin Hanyan by his mother to ask for advice. But when he walked to the yard where his aunt lived, he met Huang Qiong who came to visit Lin Hanyan. It's just that Huang Qiong, who was a little distracted at the time, didn't look at his nephew at all. Although Huang Qiong was unintentional, it made the eldest son of the king even more jealous, thinking that his uncle looked down on him.
It's just that this kid concealed it very well. After Huang Qiong entered the yard, he hid aside and waited until Huang Qiong came out. Although this child is still young, only thirteen or fourteen years old. But the eyes staring at Huang Qiong's back were like a poisonous snake, unusually cold and fierce.
When Huang Qiong left Lin Hanyan's yard and returned to the front house, it was completely dark. And the three daughters of He Yao didn't rest either, they were always waiting for him to have dinner together. Seeing that the three daughters of He Yao have been waiting for him, Huang Qiong's face has been tempered and is not what it used to be, but he still couldn't help but blush.
Huang Qiong showed a flash of abnormality, or should I say shame. Although Lin Wanqing and Zhu Xing'er didn't notice it, He Yao was older after all, but they could see it at a glance. Although you can guess where Huang Qiong went this afternoon. But He Yao didn't say anything, and stood up quietly when Huang Qiong came in. After serving Huang Qiong and washing his hands, he served him rice himself.
After quietly finishing dinner, Huang Qiong was about to go to the study to stay for a while. However, Liu Hu's report came from outside the door, saying that Yu Mingyuan, the current Henan Jiedu envoy, and Guo Chen, the deputy envoy of Xiaoqiying, wanted to see him. Hearing this, the two former commanders of the Xiaoqi Battalion and the current deputy envoy asked for an audience. Huang Qiong suddenly felt uneasy in his heart, and immediately came to see him without any delay.
But when the two of them came in, several soldiers from the Knight Cavalry Battalion behind them came in carrying a stretcher. After seeing Huang Qiong, the two of them hurriedly saluted. Yu Mingyuan turned around and opened the tightly covered quilt on the stretcher and said: "Your Majesty, this is what Zhao Wushu just sent to Zhengzhou. After the general received the person, he heard that he was the guard beside the prince, so he Sent over immediately."
Upon hearing that Zhao Wushan had someone deliver it, Huang Qiong hurriedly rushed to the stretcher in three steps and two steps at a time. When he saw the person on the stretcher, even Huang Qiong, who had been out of the palace for nearly a year, had developed a composure that would not change even if the mountain collapsed. But his vision was still dark, and his teeth were squeaking.
Since Huang Qiong entered the Xiaoqi camp, this was the first time he saw Huang Qiong acting so glum. Yu Mingyuan said quickly: "Your Majesty, this guard of the king is in a ravine more than sixty miles west of Hulao Pass. He was discovered by a few mountain people collecting firewood. After discovering that it was Guard Wang, he chose a few doctors from the Hulao Pass Army to rescue him for several days before he could barely breathe a sigh of relief."
"It's just that there are no good doctors in Hulao Prison. After several days of hard work, I can barely maintain the tone of Guard Wang. We are afraid that if we continue to delay, there will be no hope. After Guard Wang can barely go on his way, we will order him. We were sent to Zhengzhou urgently. We also informed the officials and Deputy Envoy Guo that this person is the personal bodyguard of the prince."
"Brother Liu, go and fetch Dr. Li right away. Go and find him as quickly as possible." Seeing that there was only one breath left on the stretcher, he didn't know that the Mongolian doctor was being bandaged up in Hulao. The mummy-like Wang Dalong. Huang Qiong rushed to the door in a few steps and sternly ordered Liu Hu to immediately invite Doctor Li, who had arrived in Zhengzhou with the main force of Xiaoqi Camp, to come over.
When Dr. Li, who was almost dragged out of the bed by Liu Hu, rushed over to open the bandage on Wang Dalong's body, and saw that under the bandage, Wang Dalong's body was almost without a piece of good flesh, everyone present Everyone gasped. Those wounds were not caused by punches, but by hard cuts with knives.
After a careful inspection, Doctor Li turned around and faced Huang Qiong, who was looking at him expectantly, and shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being unable to do anything. Guard Wang's hand tendons and hamstrings are all gone." He was picked off by others. His limbs were cut off section by section, and his fingers were also broken section by section."
"You see, the nails on these ten fingers were intentionally pulled out. These eyes were also stabbed blind with needles. Although these wounds on the body are not fatal, a large number of ants have also been placed on them. It has caused ulcers all over the body. With such serious injuries and the deliberate delay, the needles and arrows are now useless. My lord, I am really powerless."
"I really don't know who he is and what kind of hatred he has to commit such a murderous act. I really don't know how King Guards persists these days. Even if he tortures people, he doesn't torture like this. The person who did it, They simply don’t treat people as human beings.”
Hearing what Dr. Li said, Huang Qiong couldn't believe it and said: "Mr. Li, I know that you have superb medical skills. When I and Liu Hu were seriously injured, you were able to finally revive. Is there really nothing you can do this time? ? I beg you, can you think of another way to rescue Dalong. Even if he becomes a cripple, as long as he is alive, it will be fine."
The eagerness in Huang Qiong's tone made Dr. Li shake his head and smile bitterly: "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, a person can never die through medicine. The injuries of Imperial Guard Wang and Imperial Guard Wang were different from those of you and Imperial Guard Liu. Your internal injuries were not the same. It’s not very serious, it’s just that the poisoning was relatively deep. As for Guard Liu, although he looked scary at the time, most of his injuries were only external injuries, which were far less serious than Guard Wang’s injuries now.”
"If you had just carried me over when you were injured, I might still have some ideas. But now, even if the Da Luo Immortal comes, it will be difficult to treat him. Your Majesty, you should prepare the funeral arrangements for Guard Wang. Guard Wang is already dead. Even if the lamp dries up, the only way I can hold on until now is by holding on to my breath."
Having said this, Doctor Li hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Your Majesty, let alone the current Guard Wang who is really powerless, what can he do even if he is rescued? Guard Wang is no longer even a cripple. At most. He is nothing more than a walking corpse, how can he accept such a royal guard?"
After Dr. Li finished speaking, Huang Qiong had not waited for anything to say. Since they entered the Royal Palace of England, they have had a very good relationship with Wang Dalong, even to the point where they would entrust each other with their families if something happened. After inviting Doctor Li back, Liu Hu, who had been holding on to Wang Dalong's hand, suddenly shouted: "Your Majesty, Doctor Li, come quickly, Dalong's pulse is gone."
Liu Hu's shouting made Huang Qiong no longer care about his dignity. He walked to Wang Dalong in a few steps, grabbed Wang Dalong's hand, and kept shouting Wang Dalong's name. But what was waiting for him was Wang Dalong's gradually cooling body, and Doctor Li, who was taking Wang Dalong's pulse, shaking his head: "My lord, my condolences, Dalong has already passed away."
Huang Qiong raised his hand to stop other people who wanted to persuade. Huang Qiong, who was showing an unusual calmness at the moment, raised his head and said to Liu Hu: "Liu Hu, go arrange for someone to clean Dalong's body. Then go buy a bite of the best." Coffin, bury Dalong properly. Dalong’s posthumous affairs must be handled properly. Now send someone to inform Mr. Jia to take all Dalong’s family members to the Prince of England’s Mansion.”
"Tell Mr. Jia that from now on, Dalong's family will be supported by the palace. Dalong's family is my family. If there are any problems in Dalong's family's life, I will settle the accounts with him instead of anyone else. Also, The family members of the guards who died in Hulao Pass will also be treated accordingly."
