The strange looks from everyone made General Mocheng realize that he had lost his composure, so he immediately shut up and urged the horse under him to run in the direction of Li Xiaoji.

The moment he saw the reinforcements from Mocheng arriving, Li Xiaoji breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, as soon as he relaxed, his strength also gave out, causing him to faint uncontrollably and fall to the ground.

"Li Xiaoji!" Before He Chen and others could react, Guan Zishu shouted out and hugged Li Xiaoji with difficulty, looking at him nervously, for fear that he would die.

"Wake up, you can't die, you must not die!" Guan Zishu didn't have enough strength, so she had to sit on the ground holding Li Xiaoji, looking at his face, not realizing that she was so nervous that she had crossed the line.

Looking at this scene that seemed like a lover parting and dying, everyone realized that Li Xiaoji was standing in front of the cave to protect Guan Zishu, who was obviously seriously injured. Wait, what happened to the two of them?

He Chen couldn't help but frown. Guan Zishu was too close to Li Xiaoji. Didn't she take him seriously as her fiancé?

After Guan Zishu confirmed that Li Xiaoji was not dead and breathing normally, she looked up at He Chen and briefly explained what had just happened, pointing out that it was Li Xiaoji who risked his life to save her.

After listening to Guan Zishu's narration, He Chen felt complicated. Looking at Li Xiaoji who was as weak as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, he really couldn't take the opportunity to settle the matter, so he was ready to put the knife back into the scabbard.

But General Mo Cheng mistakenly thought that He Chen wanted to hurt Li Xiaoji, so he jumped up from his horse uncontrollably and said loudly: "Stop, he can't die!"

Seeing the panic on the elderly guard's face, He Chen and Guan Zishu frowned, intuiting that there was something hidden. Did he know something?

Seeing that General Mocheng was so nervous that He Chen, who had no intention of killing Li Xiaoji, quietly stepped aside. Guan Zishu also let go and allowed General Mocheng to order Li Xiaoji to be carried away.

The moment Li Xiaoji fainted, Jiang Chenzhiruo, who was in the Dayan Palace, felt something and wanted to get up and go to the imperial garden to relax, but his eyes suddenly turned red uncontrollably, and everything he saw was like ghosts and snakes.

They rushed towards him with a grin, waving their sharp claws, trying to tear off his face, dig out his heart, chew him up and swallow him whole.

"Get away, get away, get out of here!" Angry and panicked, Jiang Chenzhi pulled out the soft sword from his waist and stabbed him, one by one, blood spattered, and screams continued.

But Jiang Chenzhi laughed excitedly, "Hahaha, die to me, die, die!"

Suddenly, several red figures appeared in Jiang Chenzhi's sight, running towards him hurriedly, but they were all roaring evil ghosts with their teeth and claws open, their bloody mouths open.

Jiang Chenzhi, who was crazy about killing, was fearless. He waved his sword and killed these evil ghosts one by one. He trampled them under his feet and laughed wildly: "You want to kill me, hahaha, I'm dreaming!"

I don't know if the monster's blood blurred his vision and caused him to have an illusion, or the surrounding environment had indeed undergone strange changes. The entire palace turned upside down, and the figures overlapped, leaving Jiang Chenzhi at a loss as to what to do.

He had no choice but to hold the hilt of his sword and keep killing, killing to stop the panic in his heart. He didn't know what he was doing, and instinctively got rid of all the monsters and monsters around him that could breathe.

"Help -" the incessant screams encouraged Jiang Chenzhi to continue to slay demons. He is the emperor of the world, and he has the protection of dragon energy. No evil ghost can even harm him!

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Chenzhi was tired and sat helplessly on the ground. His red eyes gradually returned to calm, and he finally saw the surrounding scene clearly.

Those who fell on the ground were not demons or monsters, but palace guards, chambermaids, and several courtiers who tried to persuade Jiang Chenzhi to stay.

After returning to his senses and realizing that he was going mad and went on a killing spree, Jiang Chenzhi chuckled. There was indescribable desolation and self-mockery in this laugh, which made people feel powerless and helpless.

"Hahaha, Father, my son has killed someone again. I am afraid that his madness cannot be concealed. If his madness cannot be concealed, the secrets that the Dayan royal family has painstakingly concealed for generations will be exposed... …”

"Hahahahahaha..." Jiang Chenzhi, who had a handsome appearance and was once known as the most upright emperor in the history of the Dayan Dynasty, looked like a ferocious ghost at the moment, with a distorted face and a look of embarrassment.

The news that the insane Jiang Chenzhi was killing people in the palace was first received by several ministers. They immediately responded and completely blocked the news and prohibited it from being disclosed.

When they rushed into the palace, they saw Jiang Chenzhi who had returned to normal. He was sitting quietly at his desk, reviewing the memorial, as if nothing had happened.

The corpses lying scattered on the ground, a purgatory-like scene, made people uncontrollably frightened. However, after the leader of the prime minister calmed down, he calmly ordered people to clean up the scene.

"Your Majesty, I'm a humble minister..." The trembling palace people removed the corpses and cleaned the palace. The prime minister looked at Jiang Chenzhi, who was cold and distant, and hesitated to speak.

"Don't say anything, call Ah Ji back to me!" Jiang Chenzhi raised his eyes. The emperor's sense of oppression made the prime minister and others half kneel on the ground uncontrollably. After hearing his request, they agreed one after another.

Alas, they did not agree with Li Xiaoji leaving the imperial city in the first place, but His Majesty connived at it and insisted on promoting Li Xiaoji. Now, the medicine man is having a great time in Mocheng and other places, how can he remember to come back?

The Prime Minister and others, who had not yet received news that Li Xiaoji was injured, immediately sent troops to Mo City to bring Li Xiaoji back as quickly as possible.

The traitorous minister who saw the scene of Jiang Chenzhi slaughtering the palace people through the screen projection swallowed his saliva. He should give Li Xiaoji some points to defend himself. Otherwise, that iron rooster would not use the points and would just suffer.

While the Dayan Palace undergoes a sudden change and everyone in the imperial city is in panic, the turmoil in Meicheng and other places has spread to the ears of several neighboring countries.

Juebei knew he could afford to lose, so he lowered his dignity to negotiate a peace, and actually went all out to set up a trap to catch Li Xiaoji. He had not kept his word, and failed in the end. He would inevitably become the joke of all countries again.

Back in Juebei, Princess Jita ignored Master Nan and others' resentful looks at being teased, got into the carriage, and gave the order, and the group immediately rushed to Juebei Imperial City.

On the way, Jita looked at some detailed information about Li Xiaoji that his men had investigated, and looked at the evaluations of Li Xiaoji by the civil and military generals in Dayan. They were all "traitors" and "dog thieves".

These comments made Princess Zita frown in displeasure. She did not believe that a person with such eyes and such a big heart could be a traitor who relies on his will to please the superiors. There must be something hidden in it.

"You'd better hide the truth tightly and don't let me find out, otherwise, I will definitely expose the truth to the world, but I want to see what is causing you to bear this heavy burden!"

And Li Xiaoji, who has touched everyone's hearts, is currently receiving treatment in a temporary residence in Mocheng.

Men are not that particular about treating injuries. The situation was urgent, and a group of doctors who were hurriedly summoned by the Mocheng guard took off his shirt.

But the moment they saw Li Xiaoji's body clearly, everyone present opened their eyes wide and gasped uncontrollably, because his body was covered with scars.

The scars left by the whipping, the marks of the knife blade, the marks of the hot iron on the skin, and many scars caused by unknown sharp objects were so many that no trace of good meat was left.

Such a shocking injury surprised He Chen and Guan Zishu. Others had different thoughts and speculations. Thinking of the relationship between Li Xiaoji and His Majesty, they were shocked by His Majesty's cruelty.

Thinking of several possibilities, Guan Zishu couldn't help but blush, He Chen also had a complicated mood, and General Mocheng sighed, "What a sin!"

Shaking his head, General Mo Cheng sent back a group of people and ordered the doctors to do their best to treat Li Xiaoji, no matter what the price.
