Northern Territory.

On the way to Peiping.

Pei Jie, who heard the sound of breaking through the sky, quickly rushed out of the carriage. He saw the sharp arrow stuck on the roof of the carriage at a glance. He couldn't help but froze for a moment. He then hurriedly pulled out the arrow from the carriage and took it. In hand.

At the head of the sharp arrow, there was a bamboo tube wrapped in cloth, about the thickness of a finger.

Pei Jie frowned and immediately took off the bamboo tube. He found eight words written on the piece of cloth wrapped around the bamboo tube: Take one pill a day to bring the dead back to life.

There is no signature at the signature, only a special mark.

Seeing these eight words and the familiar mark, Pei Jie was instantly happy and even a little excited.

"what happened?"

Ye Qing, who was driving the car, frowned, looked at Pei Jie who looked strange, and couldn't help but ask.

"nothing."

Pei Jie paused for a moment, shook his head, and said slowly without explanation.

"What's happening?! Are the enemy's pursuers catching up?"

At this time, Shen An's men also rushed over, looked at Pei Jie solemnly and asked.

"No, it's not."

Pei Jie turned around, shook his head and said.

"Then what's that in your hand?"

The man hesitated for a moment, pointed at the sharp arrow and bamboo tube in Pei Jie's hand, and asked doubtfully.

"nothing."

Pei Jie frowned, threw away the sharp arrow, then responded casually, then ignored it and went straight back to the carriage.

The man paused inexplicably, turned his head and glanced at the rear of the large army, and then hurriedly ordered everyone to speed up and send more people to the rear.

In the carriage, Pei Jie returned to Hu Fei with excitement on his face. He eagerly poured out a pill from the bamboo tube and helped Hu Fei take it.

"Where did you get the antidote?!"

Chundie watched Pei Jie feed the young master a pill and couldn't help but ask.

"It's Senior Xiao. In order to hide himself, he used flying arrows to pass on the medicine and asked the young master to take one pill a day to bring him back to life!"

Pei Jie glanced at the door and window of the carriage and lowered his voice.

"Really? That's great!"

When Chundie heard this, she was overjoyed and said excitedly.

Pei Jie also looked excited and carefully put the bamboo tube with two pills left in his arms.

To them, nothing is more important than that Hu Fei is safe and sound.

That night, Hu Fei, who was in a coma, finally arrived at Peiping City under escort. Although he was highly poisoned, he luckily left the northern border alive.

King Yan Zhu Di personally led people to greet him at the city gate. As soon as the carriage arrived, Zhu Di ordered the doctor he had found long ago to get on the carriage and immediately diagnose and treat Hu Fei.

Immediately afterwards, under Zhu Di's instruction, Hu Fei was brought back to Prince Yan's Mansion. Pei Jie and others also followed him to the Prince's Mansion, and were placed with Hu Fei in an independent courtyard in the Prince's Mansion.

...

The night is already dark.

In the palace, Zhu Di was lingering outside the door of the wing where Hu Fei was, with a slightly solemn look on his face.

Although Hu Fei did not surrender, he did not want to see Hu Fei die like this, because as long as Hu Fei could survive, he would have made another great contribution during his trip to the north. After returning to the capital, he would surely rise to prominence and be more highly regarded. .

For him, that would be one more opportunity.

Time passed by, but the doctor still didn't come out. Zhu Di became more and more anxious, and his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

However, compared to Pei Jie, who was also guarding the side, he looked as if he was confident, only concerned, and not in any trouble.

After a long time, the doctor finally walked out of the room slowly while wiping his sweat.

"How's it going? Why did it take so long?!"

Zhu Di hurriedly stepped forward and asked with a frown.

"Reporting to His Highness King Yan, the injured person is no longer seriously injured. Although he was severely poisoned, the injured person has an amazing physique. There seems to be some kind of resistance in the body, which is incompatible with the poison. There is no fear for his life."

"The villain will prescribe some medicine and take it on time every day for the injured, and he will recover. Your Highness can rest assured."

The doctor bowed respectfully to Zhu Di and said confidently.

"That's great, as long as it's okay, it's okay as long as it's okay!"

"Good work!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with satisfaction.

Pei Jie, Ye Qing and others next to them were also relieved, and smiles finally appeared on their solemn faces.

"Thank you so much, Your Highness Prince Yan. Your Highness's kindness to the young master will be unforgettable to us!"

Pei Jie hesitated for a moment, bowed respectfully to Zhu Di, and said with a grateful face.

Ye Qing also hurriedly followed suit and saluted without saying a word.

"There is no need to be so open-minded. My friendship with your young master is different from others. It is natural to save him. What's more, he can escape this disaster because of his own strength."

Zhu Di waved his hand and said slowly.

"Even so, we are very grateful. When the young master wakes up, I will tell you the truth."

Pei Jie cupped his hands and still said respectfully.

"Okay, now that it's confirmed that it's okay, I'm relieved. From today on, you can live here without anyone disturbing you. If you need anything, just talk to the housekeeper directly."

Zhu Di waved his hand, looked at the closed door, and said slowly.

The housekeeper Zhao Xinhuai, who was standing next to Zhu Di, smiled and cupped his hands without saying a word.

"Thank you, Your Highness, King Yan."

Pei Jie nodded in agreement, his face full of respect and gratitude.

Immediately, Zhu Di stopped staying and took the people out of the small courtyard.

After Pei Jie watched Zhu Di leave, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, slowly stood up, and subconsciously touched the bamboo tube hidden in his arms.

Immediately afterwards, Pei Jie asked the doctor to prescribe a prescription, sent people out of the house overnight to buy medicine, and then took the doctor with him to treat the injuries of Chundie and other injured brothers.

After everything was settled, it was already late at night, and the doctor was sent out of the palace.

...

Prince Yan's Mansion.

Front yard study.

Zhu Di was sitting on a chair, holding a cup of tea in his hand, looking thoughtful, as if he had forgotten to drink it.

"What is your Highness thinking?"

Shen An looked at Zhu Di who was silent in thought and a little dull, and finally couldn't help but ask.

"Do you feel that one of Hu Fei's men is not as worried about Hu Fei's safety as it seems on the surface?"

After hearing Shen An's words, Zhu Di came back to his senses, frowned slightly, and couldn't help but ask.

The person he was talking about was Pei Jie!

"Your Highness, please forgive me. Perhaps I was careless and didn't realize it."

Shen An was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and replied slightly apologetically.

After hearing Shen An's answer, Zhu Di smiled bitterly and shook his head, dispelling the speculation in his mind, thinking that maybe he was a little too sensitive.

"By the way, Your Highness, those who came back today reported to the general that on the way back to Peiping earlier today, the carriage riding on the Marquis of Jiu'an was hit by a sharp arrow!"

"But when they came forward to ask, they found that Jiu'anhou's people just prevaricate and did not explain clearly what was going on."

Shen An hesitated for a moment, then raised his hands and said.

"Bei Yuan's pursuit?!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he couldn't help but frown and asked doubtfully.

"no!"

"It's impossible. If it's really Bei Yuan's pursuit, it's impossible to shoot just one arrow."

Shen An shook his head and said affirmatively.

After listening to Shen An's words, Zhu Di's expression became solemn again, with a layer of doubt covering his face.

At this moment, footsteps sounded, and the palace steward Zhao Xinhuai slowly appeared at the door.

"Your Majesty, Prince Yan, Ye Qing has arrived."
