Reverse Junhou

A hundred years ago, Yincheng built the first inland waterway in the east to flow into the East China Sea.After the change of dynasties and the change of Kishiya, this waterway, which has been abandoned for hundreds of years, is finally about to sail again.

The shore of Cangling Ferry was crowded with people, and all the people in the city poured out of the city, all of them came to wait for the big ship to set sail.The merchants set up grocery stores along the coast, with a wide variety of shops, including all kinds of novelties.

The magistrate of Yincheng stood on the temporary high platform in front of the ferry, and raised his voice to read the congratulatory order issued by the palace to the people in the city, his words were full of passion.Ever since the king of the East China Sea came to Yincheng, he seemed to have hit a big luck, and good things happened one after another.Now that the waterway is about to open, Yin City is no longer a subordinate city under the rule of Du Ling, and has suddenly become the hottest blessed land in the entire Eastern Region.

What's more, with the prince and Mr. Wen taking care of him, how could the county guard get him.

The magistrate spoke eloquently about the time for a stick of incense, then walked down from the high platform, clasped his fists at Zhao Yancheng and said, "Your Majesty, please drop the red silk."

Falling the red silk is the most important part of the ship opening ceremony. After the prince holds a short knife, he cuts off the red silk hanging on the bow of the ship. From then on, the Yincheng ship can ride the wind and waves, and move forward without hesitation.

There were deafening cheers and kowtows from the shore, and the common people were both grateful and curious about the new prince.

Zhao Yancheng looked at the majestic giant on the shore, and stood still in place.

"Go." Yang Shuyue walked to his shoulder, "Zhao Yancheng, you deserve it."

Zhao Yancheng looked at the mole between the little doctor's eyebrows, grabbed his hand, put it in his arms, and squeezed it hard.

Seeing Zhao Yancheng walk up to the bow and stand in front of the bright red silk and satin surrounded by his personal guards, Yang Shuyue turned his head and winked at Wen Xuechao: "The Zhao family is indeed born with the bearing of kings and grandchildren. The Fifth Highness, regardless of his body, Wherever he stood, he stood as straight as a pine. Look at Zhao Yancheng, once he walked in front of people, he seemed to be a different person."

Wen Xuechao thought about Zhao Fengci's straight back all day, and raised his eyebrows.This is really the case.

The king of the East China Sea cut off the red silk, and the ten drums on the shore rang together, and the sonorous drums resounded through the sky.Wen Xuechao and Yang Shuyue were watching the magnificent scenery on the boat, but they heard the sharp cry of children not far away.

The guards of the palace opened the way for the two of them. Wen Xuechao and Yang Shuyue approached and took a closer look, only to see a boy sitting on the ground crying loudly.The boy was dressed in ragged clothes, with a pair of tattered clothes hanging on his body, looking quite embarrassed.The onlookers stood aside and discussed, but no one came forward.

Seeing two well-dressed noblemen walking from the crowd, the boy crawled forward a few steps regardless of indiscriminateness, and hugged Wen Xuechao's ankle, his frail body trembling violently.

The personal guard wanted to step forward to stop him, but was stopped by Wen Xuechao.Wen Xuechao leaned down and said to Zhitong: "What's your name, but you got lost in the crowd?"

Some onlookers said: "My lord, this kid is probably homeless. He has been crying here for a long time, and no one has come to find him."

A middle-aged woman sighed: "There are such cruel people in the world who leave their children outside and don't care."

Hearing that Xue Chao was asking himself, the childish boy raised his ignorant little face, with tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes: "I, my name is Ah Qing, I have a mother..."

Zhitong lowered his head for a while, then suddenly cried again: "Mother doesn't want me anymore..."

Wen Xuechao helplessly looked at the crying toddler hugging her, and simply squatted down: "Ah Qing, don't cry now, we will take you to find your mother."

The toddler choked a few times when he heard this, but stopped crying.He looked at the man in front of him who looked like a banished fairy, nodded obediently, and stretched out his arms towards Wen Xuechao: "Big brother, hug me."

With her thin body retracted into her arms, Wen Xuechao sighed, and gently picked up the child.

"After the ceremony is over, you all go find the whereabouts of the parents of this young child." Wen Xuechao rubbed Ah Qing's head, and said to his side.

As soon as the guards responded, the sound of the drums on the bank suddenly stopped.There was a rush of horseshoes in the distance, and a group of soldiers and horses came quickly from the crowd, and the place where the horseshoes passed raised dust all over the sky.The people didn't know what had happened, and they all avoided the two sides to make way for the horsemen.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Zhao Yancheng saw a group of troops from the Yandong Army galloping past the shore, heading straight for the direction where Wen Xuechao and Yang Shuyue were, his expression suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Follow them!"

The guards on the boat got the order, got off the boat immediately, and rode on horseback to catch up with the Yandong Army's team.

Yang Shuyue was about to check the body condition of the thin child, just took a step forward when she saw the child turn around and smile slyly at herself.

Such a smile should not appear on a child's face.

Yang Shuyue's whole body shook, and she opened her mouth subconsciously: "Wen Xuechao, put him down quickly!"

Wen Xuechao raised her head in confusion, but froze for an instant.

Zhao Fengci's horse rushed out of the encirclement first, he let go of the horse's reins, and his eyes cracked: "Wen Xuechao!"

Everything happened in an instant.

A short arrow was shot from behind Zhao Fengci, and the arrow in Bai Wan's hand hit the child's back directly.The childish child let go of his hands, slipped from Wen Xuechao's body, and collapsed limply on the ground, with a wanton smile on his face.

Wen Xuechao's eyes reflected the figure of Zhao Fengci getting off his horse and running towards him. He saw Zhao Fengci's flustered expression, and his eyes were full of fear.

He looked down at the short blade stuck in his heart, astonishment flashed across his face.

Wen Xuechao only felt a fishy sweetness in his mouth, and blood slowly overflowed from the corner of his mouth.He wanted to respond to Zhao Fengci's words, so he opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word.

Before Zhao Fengci's hand touched Wen Xuechao, he felt a sharp pain in his chest.He only felt that thousands of arrows were piercing his heart, and he was about to fall to the ground, but he gritted his teeth tightly, touched the ground with his knees, half kneeling and stretched out his hand towards Wen Xuechao.

The toxin of the Fenxin Pill poured into the meridians of the whole body along the heart, and the blood in Zhao Fengci's body seemed to be on fire, hot and scorching hot, continuously scorching his soul.

Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in his heart, and Wen Xuechao gradually lost his strength and fell to his knees on the ground.

"Xue Chao..." Zhao Fengci clutched his chest tightly with one hand, and groped forward tremblingly with the other, grabbing Wen Xuechao's hanging hand.

Both of them half-kneeled on the ground, and he tremblingly embraced Wen Xuechao into his arms.Wen Xuechao leaned on his shoulder, as if she finally let go of her thoughts, and closed her eyes.

Zhao Fengci hugged Wen Xuechao's back, his voice hoarse: "Xuechao, don't sleep."

However, the poison of Burning Heart was out of his control, and bone-piercing pain swept through his whole body.Zhao Fengci's eyes went dark, and he finally lost consciousness.

In order to prevent someone from taking advantage of the gap and entering, the guards of the palace had already evacuated the onlookers.When Zhao Yancheng came hurriedly behind Habayashi Wei, he saw two familiar figures lying on the ground, and not far away was a child's corpse covered by a white cloth.Yang Shuyue shuttled between the two of them, her expression was extremely grim.

Seeing Zhao Yancheng coming, he said anxiously: "Have someone send a car and horse to take them back to the palace, Wen Xuechao can still be saved!"

Zhao Yancheng hurriedly ordered to go down, and after a while, the chariots and horses of the palace arrived.

Everyone carried Wen Xuechao and Zhao Fengci, who were dying, into the car, and Zhao Yancheng realized that their hands were still intertwined.

"What happened to the dead toddler?" On the way back to the palace, Zhao Yancheng asked Yang Shuyue with a steady mind.

There was a coolness in Yang Shuyue's eyes: "The young boy is a grown man, a dwarf in disguise."

*******

Hearing slight footsteps coming from his ears, and smelling the strong smell of medicine in the house, Wen Xuechao's eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes.

The maids serving in front of the bed saw that the lord had woken up, and immediately got up to report to the lord.

When Yang Shuyue heard the news that Wen Xuechao had woken up, she was the first to rush to the other courtyard.Zhao Yancheng followed him into the courtyard with big strides, frowning slightly: "Go slowly, don't fall."

Yang Shuyue held Wen Xuechao's hand to check the pulse, and after a while he breathed a sigh of relief: "Your pulse is stable, and there is no serious problem."

Wen Xuechao touched the white cloth on his chest, still a little dazed.He didn't believe that he could still save his life from the Palace of Hades. He clearly remembered that the sharp blade in the child's hand was pierced right into his heart.

Yang Shuyue took a wooden box from the desk: "What do you think this is?"

Wen Xuechao opened the wooden box, and saw a gourd sachet that had been split in half, lying quietly on the mat.The blue silk in the sachet has long since disappeared, leaving only a red thread and an empty shell.

"When the man inserted the blade into your chest, he was blocked by this object, and the force was relieved a lot. Although the tip of the knife penetrated into your flesh, it didn't hurt your internal organs." Yang Shuyue said.

Wen Xuechao took the broken gourd out of the wooden box and held it in his hand.He looked around and said in a hoarse voice, "Where is the Fifth Highness?"

Now it was Yang Shuyue's turn to fall silent.Zhao Yancheng, who had been leaning on the side of the couch with his arms crossed, said, "He's not well."

"His heart-burning poison...had an attack?" Wen Xuechao recalled the scene of that day, and there were still bouts of dull pain in his mind.

Yang Shuyue said in a deep voice: "Your Highness the Fifth Highness saw the knife stabbed in your chest that day, and the heart poison could not be restrained. The heart-burning poison has spread from the chest to the meridians of the limbs. If you don't take the antidote in time, you will lose your heart." His Highness the Fifth Highness may remain in a coma forever."

"The antidote..."

"The people who were sent out to search for the medicine have all returned home. Most of the herbs are complete, but there are still a few key ingredients." Zhao Yancheng said, "I sent people to search all the medical halls and medicine halls in the east, but they couldn't find them. Bring out those medicines. I have sent a group of personal guards to the northern border to look for them today, and I have also placed a huge reward outside the mansion, if anyone who offers medicinal materials, will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver."

However, judging by Zhao Yancheng's expression, I'm afraid it will have little effect for a while.

"However, Governor Bai found out the instigation behind the assassination of you," Yang Shuyue saw that Xue Chao's face was pale, and comforted him, "The Yandong Army detained a staff member of the Duling Mansion, and the staffer said it was the Ren Ji faction. People are coming to kill you."

"Ren Ji." Wen Xuechao repeated the name of Duling Sheriff repeatedly, and suddenly raised her head and said, "Take me to see Zhao Fengci."

Yang Shuyue couldn't resist Wen Xuechao, so she could only ask two maids to support Wen Xuechao and lead him into Zhao Fengci's room.

Zhao Fengci was still lying unconscious on the couch, his face as pale as snow.The neck and the center of the brows were a little red, indicating that the owner of this body was suffering from heartburn.

Wen Xuechao looked at the fifth prince who was motionless on the couch, and remembered how he was taking a nap on the couch that day, and the fifth prince was careful not to wake him up.He followed Zhao Fengci's eyebrows and looked down, the jade pendant with dark green tassels was still hanging on Zhao Fengci's waist.

He turned to Zhao Fengci and said seriously: "Your Highness, I have already figured out Ren Ji's intentions. This person wasted all his efforts and wanted to kill me, but I refused to let him do so. When His Highness wakes up, let His Highness see it with his own eyes. See, how I took his dog's life by a thousand swords."

Zhao Fengci closed his eyes tightly, ignorant.

Wen Xuechao paused, held back the discomfort of the wound, and leaned closer to Zhao Fengci's ear: "The palace has sent people out to search for the medicine, and the antidote will be made in a few days. Your Highness, if you persist for a few more days, you will be successful." No?"

Zhao Fengci did not reply to him.

Wen Xuechao pulled Zhao Fengci's skirt, her eyes turned red: "Zhao Fengci, wake me up."

The author has something to say: Wen Shou: (shaking, pulling, pulling, pulling, teasing) Wake up.

His Highness the Fifth: Everyone, I think I can still rescue him.
