Chapter 64 Knife Wound

After the two imperial edicts were issued, Ye Qinghuai walked up to Luo Zichang, looked at him coldly and said: "Luo Zichang secretly transferred the imperial army, and his crime is punishable. However, I think that he has served the country in the past, so he can avoid death. I will issue the order immediately. Luo Zichang is deprived of his position as commander of the imperial army, detained in his residence, and cooperates with the investigation."

Luo Zichang's kneeling figure paused for a moment and kowtowed quickly to thank him.

Ye Qinghuai raised his head and stopped looking at him. It was already dark, but the crowd in front of him had not dispersed. Those who were seriously injured in the conflict had been carried away, and some who were slightly injured were still in place. Ye Qinghuai He looked at them and said: "Injured soldiers and civilians will be treated nearby in the capital, and all expenses will be borne by the imperial court."

Ye Qinghuai looked into the distance and saw Jingzhao Prefecture Yin and a dozen officers standing at the street entrance, all with some blood on their bodies. Several officers were helping the slightly injured people away.

It looks like they have assisted in evacuating some of the wounded.

Ye Qinghuai then withdrew his gaze and said: "Matters related to harming the people are supervised by Jiang Qiancheng, Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture."

After arranging this, Ye Qinghuai looked at the officials who had been guarding outside Chengtian Gate for a whole day. Some of them had torn clothes and some had stains on their faces, but everyone looked at them with shining expressions. Ye Qinghuai, the light in his eyes seemed to illuminate the newly darkened sky.

Ye Qinghuai felt sad.

She raised her hands and saluted the officials, and said: "Everyone, please disperse. Chunwei will reopen next month. The specific time and regulations will be announced by the Ministry of Etiquette in the next few days. Let's go back and prepare for the exam."

The officials kowtowed again and thanked them, and then slowly dispersed in small groups.

Ye Qinghuai heard bustling discussions coming from the dispersing crowd.

"I knew that His Majesty would not just sit idly by and watch."

"Yes, Your Majesty is the king and father of all the people in the world. How can a father not cherish his children?"

"I will retake the exam today. I must gain merit and serve Your Majesty!"

Listening to these voices, Ye Qinghuai had mixed feelings.

Thinking about her past life, she felt even more guilty. Thinking about the future, she could only smile bitterly.

In the eyes of the people, her father-in-law is a big tree that protects her from wind and rain, but they don't know that her "big tree" is actually just a seedling that is shaken by the wind and rain.

After the crowd dispersed, Ye Qinghuai noticed that Lin Yuxiu and Guan Shengjie were still kneeling on the ground and did not leave.

Ye Qinghuai walked up to Lin Yuxiu, half-knelt down, looked at him levelly, and said, "Lin Sheng, you don't have to kneel to me."

Lin Yuxiu raised his head. He looked at Ye Qinghuai, with a bit of unbelievable shock in his eyes. Perhaps because he was meeting the king at this moment, he completely lacked the sharpness he had when confronting the imperial army, and was instead a little reserved.

"I did have difficulties before, and I didn't hide them deliberately. What the students asked for in the petition was also what I worried about all day long." Ye Qinghuai said solemnly to Lin Yuxiu, "I am deeply touched by Lin Yuxiu's sincerity for the imperial court. My heart will never be betrayed. This spring, you must go all out. I am waiting for your palace audition in the Hall of Supreme Harmony."

Lin Yuxiu was so excited by what she said that he kowtowed and responded: "The common people will do their best and never hide any ink secretly."

Seeing him like this, Ye Qinghuai smiled happily and stood up to prepare to return to the palace.

When she got up, maybe she was in a hurry, maybe she had lost too much blood, her vision went dark, she was out of breath, and she was about to fall down.

Lin Yuxiu was the closest to her, and when he saw her fainting, he immediately stood up and let her lean on him, regardless of the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers, and reached out to hold her shoulders.

As soon as he helped him, he was shocked.

Why is the emperor so thin?

Ye Qinghuai's court uniform was wide and the shoulders were made even wider to show the majesty of the emperor, but in fact it was all held up by the material.

Lin Yuxiu couldn't help but feel even more surprised when he recalled the way she cut off the Imperial Guard's saber with her sword in front of him.

How could such thin shoulders swing the Long Yuan sword weighing more than ten kilograms?

A smell of blood came from Ye Qinghuai's body. Lin Yuxiu frowned and subconsciously looked down at the injury on her shoulder.

The front of her court dress was made of thick brocade, with black dragon patterns or dark red patterns in the middle. At this time, the entire court dress and the inner coat were cut, and the turned-up fabric was stained with blood.

It turned into a brownish red, and the location of the knife wound could be vaguely distinguished in the blood. The wound undulated slightly with Ye Qinghuai's breathing, as if he was slowly swallowing thick plasma.

He was hurt so badly!

Lin Yuxiu panicked a little and subconsciously held her tight.

"Your Majesty!" Li Baoquan rushed out from the crowd, followed by several young eunuchs carrying the royal carriage.

Presumably, he noticed Ye Qinghuai's discomfort before and went to the palace to find a chariot for her.

Without even looking at Lin Yuxiu, he directly took the person from his arms and stuffed Ye Qinghuai into the imperial carriage with the help of two young eunuchs.

After sitting down, Ye Qinghuai slowly opened her eyes and woke up. When she woke up, she felt a terrible pain in her left shoulder, as if there was a fire burning.

She tried hard to maintain her consciousness, took Li Baoquan's hand and said: "Go to Zhou Shouyi and ask him to come. You go to him in person, I can still hold on."

Ye Qinghuai's voice gradually became weaker, her hand holding him relaxed, and she slowly closed her eyes.

Li Bao's face suddenly became solemn. He ordered the young eunuchs to carefully take the emperor back to Jingshou Palace, and he quickly ran to the Imperial Hospital.

Lin Yuxiu looked at the emperor's father who was getting further away, and then looked down at the emperor's blood stained on his white clothes. His slightly frowned brows gradually relaxed, and his expression gradually became determined.

He made a difficult decision.

——

In the Jingshou Palace, the lanterns were lit for the first time.

The emperor's bedroom was brightly lit, and the inner courtyard was full of people. Eunuchs and maids were busy coming and going, some were busy boiling medicine, some were busy preparing meals, and some were hurriedly carrying blood-stained hot water.

Walked by.

Qin Yang stood in the crowd, tall and out of place.

He was anxious in his heart, but he could only pace back and forth outside the door.

Ye Qinghuai gave him a task, which was not to let anyone enter the dormitory.

Including himself.

"Don't worry, little brother. Dr. Zhou's medical skills are superb. Your Majesty will be fine." Li Baoquan comforted him, but he didn't realize that he couldn't hide the worry in his eyes.

There were only two people in the dormitory, Ye Qinghuai and Zhou Shouyi.

Ye Qinghuai's clothes above her left chest had been cut off by Zhou Shouyi, and the blood around the wound had been cleaned with hot water, revealing the jade-white shoulder with distinct muscles and bones, and the hideous wound between the shoulder ribs.

"You really don't need Ma Fei San?" Zhou Shouyi asked again with a heavy expression.

Ye Qinghuai shook his head: "There must be something else happening tonight, and I must not fall asleep."

Zhou Shouyi handed a soft handkerchief twisted into a twist to Ye Qinghuai's mouth and said, "Bite it."

Ye Qinghuai hesitated for a moment and bit the handkerchief between his teeth.

The next moment, a heartbreaking scream came from the bedroom of Jingshou Palace.
