Chapter 973 The unspeakable secret

Jiayin subconsciously raised his arm to trigger the crossbow.

Fortunately, Mu Jue shouted in time, "It's me!"

Jiayin breathed a sigh of relief. When he looked through the light, his face changed with shock.

Mu Jue's face was pale, his forehead was bleeding, one arm was twisted unnaturally, and blood drops were falling down from his fingertips.

“What’s wrong with you? Where are you injured?”

Jiayin frowned, quickly walked over to get the medical box, and then took off Mu Jue's coat.

Mu Jue subconsciously flashed. Although he had often slept outside for safety reasons and lived in the same room as Jiayin, he had a clear conscience and the two of them were innocent.

At this moment, if he takes off his clothes and clothes in front of him, even if the situation is urgent, it will not be good for the reputation of the good news if it is spread.

Jiayin is so smart. You can understand what's going on just by looking at him.

She glared angrily, pulled him to her, and said angrily, "You want to die, how long have you been, and you still pay attention to those useless things!"

After saying that, she peeled off the dirty outer shirt three times, and sure enough, the white sleeves of Mu Jue's inner shirt were soaked in blood.

Jiayin took the scissors and cut off the sleeves, revealing the wounds inside.

Mu Jue's entire forearm was covered in blood, and the bones in the middle were directly broken, even revealing white bone stubble, which was extremely scary.

“What the **** did you do? The injury was so severe!” Jiayin was furious.

Just looking at him like this made her inhale in pain for Mu Jue.

I really don’t know how Mu Jue came back with such serious injuries!

Mu Jue saw that she even forgot to clean the wound and instead blew air on his arm like a child. Suddenly, he felt a little itchy in his heart. It seemed that everything was awkward, but he felt comfortable everywhere.

He coughed twice and replied, "I saw an acquaintance in the palace, so I wanted to catch up to him, but it turned out that someone was secretly protecting that person. Maybe they thought I had malicious intentions, so they fought with me. I couldn't help but Be careful, you’ll suffer a little loss!”

"Is this a small loss? It almost cost me my life!" Jiayin cursed and quickly brought water and found a cloth to help clean the blood stains from the wound.

Seeing that her light pink sleeves were stained, Mu Jue wanted to say something, but Jiayin glared back.

So, Jiayin was as busy as a little bee, but he smiled like a black bear who had eaten honey...

More than half an hour later, Mu Jue's broken arm was corrected, given medicine to stop the bleeding, wrapped in white cotton, and finally fixed with thin wooden strips and slung over his chest.

Even the wound on the head was properly bandaged.

Jiayin finally sat down and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Mu Jue felt distressed and grateful. He wanted to say a few soft words, but he said, "Don't you ask me who I saw in the palace?"

Jiayin poured two glasses of water, pushing one in front of him and drinking the other directly.

"No need to ask, I know. And I hope you also forget about meeting that person today and don't tell anyone about it. Otherwise, let alone you, even our family and my adoptive father will be in bad luck, and we won't be able to save you. "

Mu Jue frowned, thought about it carefully, and then nodded hesitantly.

Logically speaking, although he entered the palace to protect the good news and took the title of a secret guard, he was also very familiar with the defenses in the palace.

But the people protecting that man today were extremely skilled in martial arts and were ruthless in their attacks, many times more powerful than the secret guards.

Even, he did not find such a master beside the emperor.

There is only one result, that is, that person is more important than the emperor!

In other words, the emperor believes that this person is more precious than his own life!

Thinking about the man's age again, he had some vague guesses, and cold sweat slowly dripped down his forehead...

Jiayin was quietly relieved when he saw him like this. She was really afraid that Mu Jue would not listen to her advice and continue to investigate. She would be digging her own grave!

“Don’t think about it, go and have a rest. Come over and apply the medicine the day after tomorrow. Avoid eating spicy food these days. If you take pills tonight, you may develop a fever. Please be careful.

“I’ll ask Aunt Mei to make morning and evening medicine for you starting tomorrow morning. Remember to drink it.”

"Okay, I'll note it down." Mu Jue took the medicine bottle from Jiayin, grabbed his dirty clothes, and jumped out of the window again.

Jiayin sat in front of the window, enjoying the evening breeze, looking at the moon in the sky, his mind was so confused that he really didn’t know what would happen in the future.

She didn't want to be as cold-hearted as she had guessed, but she had to be careful, people's hearts were sinister...

In the inner courtyard of the palace, under the many eaves, in a quiet side hall not far from the royal study, a young man held a book and read at night by candlelight.

Suddenly, the shadow of the candle on the table moved. He raised his head and asked quietly, "Back?"

A man in black appeared strangely in front of the table and responded, "This subordinate deserves to die. I didn't catch anyone, I only injured this person."

The young man nodded, not blaming anyone, but began to reflect.

“Don’t blame yourself, I was reckless this time and almost exposed my deeds. What happened today will never happen again in the future.

"You also remember that if you see that person today, you don't need to pursue it any further. This matter ends here!"

The man in black was stunned for a moment, then quickly kowtowed, "Yes, Master."

After saying that, he disappeared in a flash.

Leaving the young man to the window, he looked at the moon half hidden in the clouds and sighed softly.

The moon yawned and came out of the clouds, looked at the world, and couldn't help but complain.

These two really don’t like to study. They always watch what they are doing!

Mu Jue has been in the Li family for a long time, and everyone treats him like their own child.

Especially since he follows Jiayin day and night to protect her safety, the family members are even more close to him.

Seeing that he was injured, everyone was surprised, but when they heard that the wound had been taken care of, they tacitly guessed that he was injured because of some errand that Jiayin asked him to do, so no one asked more questions.

This puts Jiayin at the receiving end of the blame. After all, it was Mu Jue who took it upon himself to touch the tiger’s butt!

But soon, the family no longer had the time to speculate.

Sure enough, as Li Laoer said, the court quickly set a date for the envoy to leave Beijing. It was just ten days later, which was indeed earlier than Jiaren and others.

Hence, Wan'er and Jiayin not only had to prepare luggage for Jiaren and Brother Li, but also prepared things for Jiaxi and Jiaan to take to Quanzhou.

All kinds of brocades that are popular in the new capital, new styles of dresses and jewelry, food at home, fine ornaments brought to the palace by good news, newly printed books in bookstores, etc.

Wan'er and Jiayin were so busy that they were overwhelmed.

Even Li Lao Er and Li Lao San, Mr. Wen, and Jia Huan came back empty-handed every night, carrying large and small parcels.

Even Guo Wenhao got involved and sent a lot of things, half to honor Mrs. Li and half to Mrs. Wen, the master's wife.

Of course, Captain Liu also has to bring things for his wife and children, and the village elders are also thinking about Hui Niang, mother and son...

Finally, we put it all together, and the big ship that was heavy when it came was still full when it left, and it couldn't even be loaded, so another boat was added...

Neither Ai Bei nor Wen Wen want to leave. They haven't lived enough in Broken Gold Beach, nor have they eaten enough food at home, and they can't bear to part with the comfort and warmth of home.
