Li Yijie angrily said, "Damn it, you devil … get back here!" She wanted to pursue. Tang Yuancheng squatted by Cheng Jiaxuan's side and gently helped her up, letting her lean against the wall to prevent the blood from flowing into her brain. "Don't pursue!" He exclaimed, "Let's see Xiao Xuan's injury first."
He raised his hand to check her breathing, and then moved his finger to check her pulse. After a long time he said, "The last secret projectile was not fatal. It's just that … I am afraid those arrows were coated with more than a hundred kinds of poisons. With the mixture of these poisons, the toxicity has increased several times. If my guess is correct, I am afraid the poison has reached her lungs. The situation is critical. In the Palace, only you are an internal energy expert, you can use your own internal energy to expel the poison. Hurry up, don't delay any longer. "
Li Yijie was in a difficult situation. Right this moment Shunzhi also said, "Forget it, don't pursue a cornered enemy. This time we have inflicted heavy damage to the Seven Deadly Demons, it was worth it. Later on we will have another opportunity to subdue him, we don't need to be in a hurry. But Xiao Xuan, she is the Regent Imperial Uncle's adopted daughter. If she dies in the Palace without any clear reason, it will arouse his suspicion. I am afraid he will use this as an excuse to launch a coup d 'état. When that time comes, it will be really hard to guard against. "
"No," Shen Shiyun suddenly said, "Li Qingjia, you'd better pursue the Seven Deadly Demons. We have already planned this well, nobody would have expected that Xiao Xuan would turn against us at the last moment. Now that she is injured, she has no one to blame but herself, she does not deserve any sympathy. But you have seen the Seven Deadly Demons' appearance just now, it is obvious that he is also seriously injured. If we do not seize this opportunity to kill him in one fell swoop, this demon is very crafty. If we use the same strategy to capture him in the future, he will definitely not fall for it. If we let the tiger return to the mountain, there will be no end of trouble. What's more, Xiao Xuan won't be able to wait long before the poison enters his heart meridian. There's no medicine that can save him. If we can't kill the Seven Malevolent Demons, thousands of people in the world will be harmed. Minister Li, in the face of the overall situation, you must remember to prioritize and not be indecisive. "
Li Yijie cast a glance toward Cheng Jiaxuan, who was sitting paralyzed in the corner of the room, and saw that her lips had a deep purple hue, and her eyelids, forehead and cheeks were all blue and purple. She looked like she had been deeply poisoned. Was it worth it to miss such a great opportunity to exterminate the Evil Demon for a person he couldn't save in the end? Perhaps one of the key reasons why he couldn't accomplish great things was because he was too emotional. That was why he gave away the benefits in his hands. Gritting his teeth, he hardened his heart and rushed out.
Tang Yuancheng's expression stiffened; he wanted to call out to her, but in the end he hesitated. Feeling her pulse under his fingers was getting weaker and weaker, he could not help feeling pity in his heart. He thought about how Cheng Jiaxuan was an unknown person in the Palace, who only knew how to move around in the dark all day long, furtively gathering information. Almost no one really cared about this girl. Who knew that other than being used as a tool, she also had strong feelings in her heart? She also had dreams and desires?
Xuan Shuang silently walked to her side and looked her up and down in disbelief. He was now very experienced and knew that quite a few poisons were transmitted through the skin, so he couldn't even touch the poisoned person's body.
He tested her breathing from a distance and seemed to finally be certain. He stamped his feet and called out, "Xiao Xuan, quickly get up! Don't pretend to be dead, quickly wake up! Oh, I understand. You're a complete fool. You know that if you're still conscious, I'll definitely give you a good scolding, so you deliberately pretended to be asleep to deal with me. Is that right? Stand up, quickly stand up and let me see! Otherwise, I won't pay attention to you anymore! In the future, every New Year's, I'll cut a lot of beautiful window flowers, but I won't give you a single one. Every year on your birthday, I … boohoo … "He couldn't stop a few drops of tears from rolling down his face.
Tang Yuancheng softly said, "For Xiao Xuan, perhaps the most serious injury isn't her body, but the pain in her heart. I've also heard about the matter between her and Jiang Shengjun. She's just a weak girl. I admire her perseverance in the pursuit of love. No matter who it is, if they're treated so cruelly by the person they love, their heart must be as broken as death. Perhaps she'd rather be unconscious than to escape the current situation. "
Xuan Shuang sneered and pointed a finger at Shen Shiyun, saying, "Look! Another innocent person who was implicated by your vicious plan. For the sake of your laughable revenge, how many more people are you going to kill before you're willing to give up? "Shen Shiyun sneered," Everyone present has seen it with their own eyes. What does this matter have to do with me? Isn't it because your great master chose Xiao Xuan as his shield in the face of life and death? Otherwise, how could she be so seriously injured? "
Tang Yuancheng saw the two people arguing more and more fiercely. He hastily tried to persuade them, "That's enough. Now is not the time to investigate who's right and who's wrong. What I'm worried about is Hierarch Jiang. His path has been wrong for a long time. I'm afraid it's already too late to turn back. My painstaking efforts were in vain, hoping to persuade him to return to the right path. Now that the Lord Li's mission is at hand, it's inconvenient for me to say anything more. But the imperial physicians in the palace shouldn't have to follow the chase. They should be free, right? Then quickly invite them to come and take a look. In any case, we should first alleviate the poison, then we can discuss whether there's a way to save her. "
Xuan Shuang happily said, "You're saying that Xiao Xuan can still be saved?" He then cast a glance at Cheng Jiaxuan. Seeing her lifeless and pale appearance, it was difficult for him to hide the bitterness in his heart. He said self-deprecatingly, "This silly girl, even if she's sad, as long as she can help my master, I'm afraid she'll still be happy."
Shunzhi felt as if he had just woken up from a dream. While sending people to find the imperial physicians, he anxiously asked, "What's wrong, Tang Shaoshi? You also know medicine?"
Tang Yuancheng said, "When this subject was young, I thought that as a doctor, I would do good deeds to save people and accumulate benevolence. To say something disrespectful, I was a bit more benevolent than a monk who is full of compassion. But Grandmother placed all her hopes on this official, so it was impossible for her to easily throw everything aside and 'practice medicine to help the world'. Besides, at that time I had to study the Four Books and Five Classics, so I had no time to care. When I became the Zhuangyuan, in my spare time, I often flipped through several medical books hidden in the palace. I roughly flipped through them thoroughly. Basically, I could also act as a doctor. "
Shunzhi said, "That's very good! With one more person's help, we'll have more power. We want you to spare no effort to cure her. "The imperial physicians agreed in unison. They then busied themselves with treating Cheng Jiaxuan.

Jiang Liechen hastily escaped from the Snow Song Palace. The imperial bodyguards were stunned at first, but when they regained their senses, they immediately called for everyone to give chase and shoot arrows. Jiang Liechen dodged left and right. He felt that his internal energy was gradually recovering as he ran. The Seven Fiends Arts had this kind of miraculous effect. When practiced to a profound level, one could convert the Noble Qi in all directions into one's own. Moreover, each time one moved, one's internal energy would recover. It was still difficult to sweep away the attacks, but it was more than enough to avoid all of them.
Li Yijie immediately followed him out. It didn't take long for him to be in the lead. When everyone saw that he was desperately chasing after them, they were worried that their arrows would accidentally injure him. For a moment, they had no choice but to withdraw their bows and arrows.
This also bought some time for Jiang Liechen. He hurried all the way and staggered to the forest behind the palace. At this time, he saw a graceful figure standing in front of him. Her clothes were gaudy and she wore a pearl necklace on her head that swayed in the wind. With every movement, the accessories made a soft sound that lingered in the air.
When Jiang Liechen saw her, he suddenly felt a headache. It was like "when it rains, it pours". He braced himself and walked forward, asking, "What do you want?" That person was Ji Qiannian, who had just become his new wife not long ago. At this time, her back was half leaning against a tree trunk. She smiled and said, "I'm waiting for you! What, you haven't forgotten who I am, have you? "
Jiang Liechen's eyes kept glancing behind him, saying, "There are people chasing after me. I don't have time to be long-winded with you right now. "Ji Qiannian raised her eyebrows and pulled his hand into the forest. After a few turns, they left the pursuing guards far behind them. They turned to a tree and said with a smile, "It's good now. There's finally a place where we won't be disturbed. We can talk in peace."
Jiang Liechen glanced behind him. He saw a group of pursuers with earth-shattering battle cries. They passed through the forest in a grandiose manner. A few groups followed closely behind. When the dust gradually dissipated, he knew that the danger was temporarily over. He let out a sigh of relief. When he opened his mouth again, his tone was a lot tougher. He said coldly, "Why are you here?"
Ji Qiannian smiled and said, "It's rare that you still remember me. Then where do you think I should be? "Jiang Liechen didn't even think and blurted out," In the Miao stockade village! Shouldn't you be there, guarding our bridal chamber? "
Ji Qiannian sneered, saying, "If I'm so easily satisfied, I wouldn't be worthy of being the Hierarch of the Five Poison Sect. Hmph, your previous sentence was really heartless. In the past, when you begged me to sever your love for you, I treated you very well and treated you very well. Now that you've received benefits, you want to turn your back on me? "
Jiang Liechen said, "Since you know, that's great. The matter between us was just a transaction. Now that it's over, you shouldn't come and ask for a snub. Even if you come, I don't have time to deal with you. That's why I said you shouldn't make this trip. "
Ji Qiannian said, "Whether it's worth it or not, it's up to me to decide. How can I not come? If I don't take the initiative to find you, I'm afraid that in this lifetime, I'll have to wait in torment for a long time. I have a premonition that once you leave, you won't come back. Everything that happened in the past can only be treated as a dream, gone with the wind. And I won't be able to see you again. In my mind, I've always remembered the beauty of our wedding ceremony. It's still vivid in my mind, as if it happened yesterday. That period of time in Miaojiang was the first time you treated me so gently since I was a child. It was also the first time I truly felt the happiness of being pampered and cared for by someone. Unfortunately, no matter how much I cherished it, it was just a kind of illusion. You and I were husband and wife for only one night, and the next day, you left me behind and returned to the Central Plains alone. You didn't even want to wait for one more day, and you didn't even want to write a farewell to me. How cruel are you? From that moment, I knew that you really wanted to get rid of me. "
Jiang Liechen said, "So what? It's rare that you have self-awareness. I've treated you well enough. One night as husband and wife can do a lot of things. At that time, you can just hold this memory for the rest of your life. You should know that for me, you don't have the right to demand anything. "
Ji Qiannian said with a bitter smile, "That's right, but I can't not come now. I especially wanted to tell you that I … I'm pregnant. "Jiang Liechen frowned and said," What do you mean by pregnant? Don't say things that are unclear. "Ji Qiannian blushed and said angrily," Stupid face, why do you have to make me say it? Naturally, I'm pregnant … I'm pregnant with our child. "
Jiang Liechen's eyes, which had been as cold as ice, finally had a trace of fluctuation. He said, "Is this true?"
Ji Qiannian smiled and said, "Yes, it's been a few months. I've looked up many books, and also asked the older generation of women in the Miao family about it. In the end, I came to the conclusion that I'm most likely pregnant. And those symptoms, I've almost repeated them. However, no matter how bad it was at that time, my heart felt sweet after all. You should spend more time with me in the future, right? Guess, is it a boy or a girl, and what name should we give it? "
