She was extremely frightened. She desperately cried for help and struggled. That person was knocked into something by her and cried out in pain.
She struggled and resisted, but the enemy was unable to take her away. Before long, the soldiers had arrived.
A lot of people came from officer army, the leading man ordered the following archers to release their arrows, regardless of life or death. She was scared out of her wits and panicked.
As arrows rained down from the sky, the person who had held her captive was playing with a long sword like a tiger in the wind. She could only hear the sound of arrows flying past her ears, but none of them landed on her body.
She was scared and flustered, helpless, desperately trying to escape from this situation. She did her best to get rid of the man in black's hand, and an arrow flew straight towards her. The man in black pulled her back, and she could only feel her feet floating in the air, when the arrow shot into her body, she heard him groan in pain.
She was stunned.
With this moment of accident, the arrows of the officer army became more concentrated. Without any cover, she became a target.
The masked man in black who held her hostage tried to protect her from the rain of arrows, but he didn't seem to know the pain. He pulled out the arrows on his body and kept retreating.
At that moment, she was not sure if that person was the bandit officer army was talking about.
The masked man in black had taken her all the way into the alley. She was too busy running for her life, and the two of them had somehow become partners in running for their lives.
The officer army chased after him as someone shouted, "Prince Wei has orders. Bandits are rampant. Kill them all!"
Hearing this, she couldn't help but tremble all over. It was unknown what tripped her foot, but she immediately threw herself forward.
The man was taken by her and they both fell to the ground, the sky spinning and the earth spinning. In the end, however, she still landed on the mat.
It was the man, the man in black who had held her captive to protect her, and who had propped her up.
Tears welled up in her eyes and she could not help but feel sad. The pursuers behind her were getting closer and closer. She did not know where she got the strength from, but she pulled the man in black and ran along the path.
She had grown up in the capital, so how could she not recognize the roads between the city's outposts?
After running for an unknown amount of time, officer army had never stopped her pursuit. She could no longer run, and no longer had the strength to do so. He leaned against the wall, panting, as the archers caught up to him.
The black clothed man used his last bit of strength. She dodged left and right, unable to shout out, "I am a good citizen! It is the Xiao family's daughter, why did you not recklessly shoot?! "
"The Prince has ordered that bandits are accomplices, and that they should be punished for their crimes!"
She was so angry that she wanted to rush over, but she did not expect that an arrow would shoot towards her face with a 'whoosh'.
Unable to avoid it, she closed her eyes in despair, waiting for death to come. However, after a long time, she couldn't find the exact same feeling. She opened her eyes in surprise and bewilderment and saw that the black-clothed person was blocking in front of her.
"You should go. It's just me. " The arrow pierced his body. He was in so much pain that he could barely speak.
Her tears were uncontrollable, flooding over her like a flood.
"I, you …" This was not right.
He turned his head and spoke weakly to the officer army, "She is really the daughter of the Xiao family. She is not one of my comrades. If something happens to her, Xiao Shang Shu will definitely not let you off!"
The leading officer army hesitated for a moment before ordering the archers to stop. He stared at her and asked, "Are you really the young miss of the Xiao family?"
"It's the real deal!" The four words were sonorous and forceful, but it was filled with a sobbing tone. She pulled at her sleeve to wipe her tears, but her body was covered in the black clothed man's blood, making her feel even more unwilling to bear it.
The leading officer army muttered to himself for a moment and ordered his subordinate to move aside, "Since you are the young miss of the Xiao family, then I will let you leave." With a scowl, he raised his hand, and his men moved aside.
The masked man in black also nodded at her, and she bravely stepped forward.
However, in the midst of her tears, she saw the leading officer army pull her bow and aim it at the black clothed man. It was as if she was possessed by something as she turned around and rushed towards the black clothed man.
The dream came to an end.
Xiao Ruyue woke up from her dream, sweating profusely as she panted heavily.
Was that a dream? If it was a dream, how could it be so real? It was as if she had experienced it herself.
Xiao Ruyue held his head, his head was hurting, as though something was going to burst out of her body.
Even though it was like a dream, she still couldn't understand why the masked man in black, who had kidnapped her, would disregard her safety and save her life several times over.
Or did he not intend to hold her hostage?
He heard it over and over in his dreams, "Prince Wei ordered that bandits would be rampant, and they would be killed without question!" "The prince has given his orders. Bandits and bandits are on the same side, so it is a similar crime!" Now, it sounded exceptionally ear-piercing, and Yuwen Chenglian was also in such a miserable state in his dreams.
That year, she was confused and confused by something, as if she was blind and thought that Yuwen Chenglian was her good man for life, regardless of anything, she wanted to stay with him until the end of her life.
Unfortunately, as Xiao Ruyue, she didn't even have the chance to become an elder.
Xiao Ruyue took a deep breath, composed herself and poured herself a cup of water.
The tea was somewhat cold, but her entire body was very hot and dry. Her entire body was burning hot. Just drinking the cold water would cause her heart to turn cold.
After drinking three cups in succession, he finally felt satisfied.
Xiao Ruyue wobbled back to her bed, her legs weak and her feet weak. As soon as her head touched the pillow, she fell asleep again from exhaustion.
At some point, she started to dream again, as if it was a continuous stream of her previous dream.
She was lying on a bed, her eyelids so heavy that she couldn't open them. She could only hear voices.
"How is her injury? When can I wake up? You won't leave behind any root of illness, right? " In his ears was a somewhat familiar voice, low and magnetic, filled with worry.
If you listen carefully, why does this person's voice sound like Yuwen He's? But he was still young, so he should be a teenager.
"You still have time to ask her. You should worry about yourself first! How many arrow holes and knife wounds do you have on your body? It took me so much effort to retrieve this little life of yours. It's only been half a day and you've already left your bed to think about it, no matter how good your body is, it's already been ruined by you! If you want to die, don't come beg me to save your life! "
The furious voice seemed to be Tang Jingzhi's, it was the same as now.
"I'm very lucky. I won't die." "But she's different, she was raised in a pavilion, her body was tender and tender, and she took an arrow for me. If anything happens to her, how can I feel at ease?"
But she heard the voice that sounded like Tang Jingzhi unhappily snorted, "You have a lot of excuses. "Let me tell you, don't think that I can't tell you how much longer I've lived than you — you've fallen in love with someone else's girl."
"Nonsense, I, I don't have any. Cough cough ~ ~ "A voice similar to Yuwen He's revealed a hint of shyness, as well as a little bit of spring heart that was about to be covered. Finally, they all disappeared into the faint sound of coughing.
"Stop quibbling, young man. This young girl from the Xiao family is indeed a lovable beauty. Furthermore, she had saved your life before. It is only natural for you to adore her. I understand. For the sake of your liking, I won't sit back and do nothing. I will definitely help you save this person. The person that I, Tang Jingzhi, am trying to save has yet to be saved. "
He paused for a moment before mumbling, "As the saying goes, a female junior hugging a gold brick. If this young girl from the Xiao Clan doesn't marry that person, it would be perfect to be with you."
She could not understand what they said after that. The person who called himself Tang Jingzhi was still trying his best to chase the youth away to rest, but he stubbornly refused to do so. The last person to make a ruckus was probably forcefully carried away after being pierced by a needle and being unable to resist.
Later on, she heard the young boy whisper in her ear, "Elder sister, you must get well."
"Elder Sister Xiao, you saved my life again. "You have to wait for me, wait for me to be able to repay your kindness!"
"Don't believe that King Wei, Yuwen Chenglian is not a good person."
She wouldn't be able to hear more.
Afterwards, her whole body was hot and her mind was blank, as if she had forgotten something …
Xiao Ruyue woke up from her dream once again.
Her clothes were drenched in sweat, and she felt as if her whole body was soaked in sweat. It was as if there was something in his mind that was about to break out of its confinement. He felt a headache coming on.
She wanted to get out of bed to pour water, but her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.
"Yin Lin, Lu Yi!" She opened her mouth and shouted. Her throat was dry and stinging, she could barely utter a word, and was in so much pain that her voice sounded like a knife being cut.
She tried to get up but failed.
The window was blown open by the evening wind. The wind cooled her sweat-soaked clothes, and the cold seeped into her skin. She couldn't help but shiver.
"Qing Qing!"
"Bam!" Finally someone outside heard the sound of movement inside the house, Yin Lin and Lu Yi anxiously rushed in with Shen Liang leading the way, but upon seeing what happened, they turned around.
Yin Lin and Lu Yi hurriedly helped Xiao Ruyue up, but they could not find Qing Qing anywhere.
"Empress, you have a fever?" The boiling temperature on Xiao Ruyue's body scared her to the point that she screamed out loud, "Quick! Pass on the message to the imperial physician! "
Cai Yin, who was at the door, heard her and ran out.
The Imperial Physician Fang came here very quickly, and because he came everyday to invite the Phoenix Palace to take the Queen's pulse, he met Cai Yin on the way. He was out of breath, and after hearing what Cai Yin said, he sprinted all the way here carrying his medicine box.
When Yuwen He heard that something had happened in the Palace, he did not care about it at all. He just threw the report that General Yuwen Xiao had sent over to Yue Yang right away and rushed back to the Palace.
Xiao Ruyue was about to fall asleep, her body was scorching hot, it was as if a fire was going to be ignited from her body, she could not use any strength in her body.
She could feel that her breath was hot, and her throat was dry and sore, as if she could smoke even from drinking water.
Imperial Physician Fang had already taken Xiao Ruyue's pulse, her face becoming serious. He did not dare look Yuwen He in the eye, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, the Empress suddenly has a very high fever and must use the medicine, but the Empress has a dragon in her womb, if she drinks this medicine, I'm afraid the dragon will have to …"
