It is indeed gratifying that Pei Yuan survived the disaster, but when I saw him, I felt that it would be better to die.
Pei Yuan, who was lying on the bed, was wrapped in white gauze. Two wooden boards were tied to the elbow of his right hand and hung at the head of the bed. The other hand was tightly stretched by the gauze. In short, except for his eyes, he could not move anything else.
There is no place to move.
Suddenly, I pointed at the splints on Pei Yuan's legs and asked the imperial doctor sternly: "What's going on? How did Pei Yuan's legs get injured?"
I clearly remember that Pei Yuan only injured his upper body, and his lower body was not injured at all.
The imperial doctor trembled and stood up and said: "Report to your Majesty, when I was helping Mr. Pei pull out the arrow, Mr. Pei couldn't hold back the pain and kicked the bedpost..."
"What about the other leg?"
The imperial doctor looked at me and said in a low voice: "Master Pei is old and was very upset because of his serious injury. While I was changing his dressing, he jumped out of bed and broke his body!"
I took a deep breath, turned around and comforted Pei Yuan: "Don't move anymore. If you have anything to do, wait until your body and bones are healed!"
Pei Yuan turned his eyes irritably and looked elsewhere.
Xia Yan said that Liu Chi was a person who did not play according to common sense, but Pei Yuan was the kind of person who had cards but never played them. Therefore, Xia Yan had not been able to grasp Pei Yuan's temperament for so many years.
Looking at the seriously injured Pei Yuan again, I sighed: "Just rest for a while!"
When I returned to Panlong Palace, I was exhausted. Xia Yan asked me why it took me so long to come back. I told him what happened, whether it was true or not. For example, Pei Yuan was injured. I told him that Pei Yuan was injured because he saved me.
Just got hurt.
Xia Yan looked at me with a very disbelieving expression.
"really?"
"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, go to the hospital and see. Pei Yuan was seriously injured by an assassin in order to save me!"
"Pei Yuan doesn't know martial arts at all, how can he save you?" Xia Yan asked.
I choked for a long time, holding back five words: "He helped me block the arrow!"
"Are you sure he was blocking it for you, rather than just running into the arrow due to poor martial arts while trying to escape?"
I swallowed my saliva and said firmly: "Absolutely not!"
"Go to sleep!"
Xia Yan helped me undress and called the maid to serve me and take a bath.
I was lying in bed but couldn't fall asleep. I was debating whether to tell Xia Yan about Xia Huanzhi, but when Xia Yan came back from bathing, I fell asleep due to exhaustion.
Then I had a strange dream.
In the dream, I was in a mirage. In a cave full of exotic flowers and plants, I saw a crystal clear ice coffin standing among the flowers. The soft flower stems wrapped the entire coffin tightly. I
Curious, he walked over and stretched out his hand to peel off the flowers wrapped around the coffin, revealing a small face carved in pink and jade.
Even in my dreams, I have never seen such a beautiful child.
She had a snowy complexion, long and curled eyelashes, a tight pink mouth, and a little sweat on her nose. What surprised me even more was that there was a closed lotus on the little girl's forehead. The pink color seemed to be raw.
It was the same on her forehead, her small breasts were rising and falling, and she was sleeping very sweetly. Seeing such a face, even if she was lying in a coffin, I didn't feel scared anymore. I wanted to find something to pry open the coffin.
Suddenly, the girl slowly opened her eyes. Miraculously, as she opened her eyes, the lotus flower on her forehead also quietly opened.
