C77

After a while, the old man brought back the medicinal ingredients that Mu Qian Xue needed. Because he was short on time, he did not have the effort to dry them in the sun just now.

The only one who said that the powder had the ability to stop the bleeding were the two women, he did not know if it was true or false, but what if it did not work and also injured his neck, then his life would definitely end here.

The old man forced himself to take a few steps forward, but in the end, he did not have the guts to do so as he said in a trembling voice, "Prince, this old one's strength is too weak for me to pull out this arrow. It's still better to invite someone else! "

Tsai did not expect that after waiting for a long time, he actually said this and was about to curse. Dong Fang Su understood his intentions and did not force him.

Hearing that, the old man felt as if he had been pardoned off. He quickly retreated, and without even taking his medicine box, Tsai spat in the direction he left in. He turned and said, "Prince, I will go now …" He wanted to ask for the imperial physician, but who knew that Dong Fang Su would actually hold onto the exposed half of the arrow. He hastily asked, "Prince, what do you want to do?"

"It's just a piece of flesh. This King can still bear it. Once the arrows are out, immediately spread medicine for This King to stop the bleeding." After saying this, his left hand tightened around the arrow, and forcefully pulled it out. The next moment, a kind of intense pain, as if he was being ripped apart alive, surged through his body. This kind of pain was not something an ordinary person could bear, and the blood that had finally stopped gushed out again.

Dong Fang Su gritted his teeth tightly. Even though he was sweating profusely, the hand that was holding onto the arrow did not loosen, and slowly but firmly pulled it out from the fresh blood that was continuously gushing out. Xia Yue could even see the bright red flesh and blood that came out from the barbed arrow.

It was only thanks to Dong Fang Su's abnormally patient nature that he was able to endure the pain of being pulled out of his soul. However, his consciousness was already gradually becoming blurry.

"Pfft!" With the last backstab, he ripped a piece of flesh off his shoulder, causing blood to gush out from the wound. At the same time, Dong Fang Su lost the last of his consciousness and fainted on the chair.

Upon seeing that abnormal blood gushing out, Mu Qian Xue realized that it wasn't good. This obviously injured her neck, and she snatched the medicinal powder from Cai Yuan's hand, who had yet to react to the situation, and quickly sprinkled it on her wound, at the same time holding it in place until the blood stopped gushing out. Only then did she gradually release his hand, and as expected, the blood flow had already stopped, and other than Dong Fang Su being slightly weaker due to the lack of blood, it wasn't too much of a problem for her.

Seeing that the wound had stopped bleeding, Tsai heaved a sigh of relief. He hurriedly got someone to help him bandage Dong Fang Su's wound and then carefully carried him to the bed.

After doing all that, Tsai bowed to Mu Qian Xue who was covered in blood: Thank you, Princess! He understood that if Mu Qian Xue had not reacted quickly, her own Prince would have been in danger.

Mu Qian Xue nodded her head and said: "Prince has lost quite a bit of blood, go and grab some blood recovery medicine, in addition..." She hesitated for a moment, then said: "I also need to send someone to report to Your Majesty."

"I know." With such a huge commotion, Dong Fang Su almost lost his life. Even if Mu Qian Xue didn't say anything, he had to go to the Zhaoming Palace to report.

After Tsai left, a servant brought some water for Mu Qian Xue to clean himself. After washing the water in a few basins, she finally washed away the blood on her hands. As for the blood between her sleeves, it couldn't be washed away.

"Prince is fine now. This servant will help you change your clothes." Xia Yue had served Mu Qian Xue for four years, and she knew that this master was someone who couldn't afford to be dirty.

"Yes." Mu Qian Xue looked at the unconscious Dong Fang Su with a complicated expression. Holding Xia Yue's hand, he walked out, and the moment he stepped into the Eastern Courtyard, his cold voice sounded in Xia Yue's ears, "Go and see if Shi Jiu is here. If he's here, bring her here to see me immediately!"

"Yes." Xia Yue responded. After shesheelped Mu Qian Xue back to his room, she immediately went to see Shi Jiu, who reluctantly went to the west study room. The moment she came in, he said, "The things you said are still under investigation, and we don't have any leads for now."

"I know, I called you here for another reason." Mu Qian Xue opened up his palm that still had a faint smell of blood, and handed over the cherry blossom pendant that he had been holding in his hand, "I want you and Shi Wu to go all out to find the person who has this pendant."

"Cherry Blossom?" When he received the pendant, Shi Jiu noticed large patches of blood on Mu Qian Xue's sleeve. He asked in shock, "Whose blood is this?" Mu Qian Xue's body was so weak, if the blood was hers, she would not be able to sit and talk to him.

"It's the King Rui!" Hearing these three words, Shi Jiu's breathing immediately became hurried, and he stared intently at Mu Qian Xue, "What happened to Prince?"

On the way back to the house, he was attacked and lost a lot of blood, but fortunately his life was fine, because the person who attacked him was wearing this item. According to the Prince, this item is unique to the Tung Ling, and only the oriental would have such a thing.

When he heard that Dong Fang Su was fine, Shi Jiu calmed himself down a little. "There's a spy from Eastern Tomb hiding in Jinling."

"More than one." When Shi Jiu heard that the Xin King and the others were also being attacked at a similar time, he was stunned. "What are they trying to do?"

"This is exactly what I want you to find out. After so many years, Tung Ling has always sealed off the country, and other than interacting with other countries, the only time in recent years that they could be considered interaction is during the battle with Northern Week. Now, they have suddenly sent so many people to infiltrate the Jinling, and have been assassinating the various kings the same day.

Looking at the closed door, Mu Qian Xue raised both her hands and placed them on her chest. Until now, she could still clearly remember the panic and fear that filled her chest when she saw Dong Fang Su fall unconscious with blood.

Furthermore, right now, she, who usually had very little change in mood, was exceptionally angry at the Tung Ling Assassin. It had to be known that anger had always been the schemer's greatest enemy, and even though she had suppressed it, she still decided to intervene in this matter, allowing Shi Jiu and the others to investigate it with all her might.

Since when did she care so much about Dong Fang Su, just because he was the support of her reinstated Nanzhao, or …

This thought had not even been formed when it was forcefully expelled from her mind. After what happened to Xiao Ruo Ao, she did not want to touch upon the word "love" again in this life, not to mention that she had not yet recovered her Nanzhao and had not avenged herself.

She and Dong Fang Su could be friends, allies, or even close friends, but they definitely wouldn't be husband and wife!
