Hearing the unusual sound of the sharp sword piercing through the air, Ling Xiche turned his head, but before he could see what it was, Shen Chen quickly stood in front of him, and a faint smell of blood permeated the air.

"Shen Chen!"

A section of the sword pierced Shen Chen's body, and the clothes at the wound soon fainted with a large amount of blood.

Ling Xiche supported Shen Chen with one hand, and quickly took out the small crossbow hidden on his body with the other and pointed it at the assassin.

This is the crossbow that Shen Chen gave him to shoot birds.

Earlier, Shen Chen asked him to pack his things, but he didn't think he could take anything away to salute.Shen Chen said to let him take another look, maybe there would be something he wanted to take away in this place where he had lived for a while, so he went around to look around, saw it by accident, and picked it up by accident .

After going out of the palace, I really need a self-defense weapon, so let's take it with me for the time being, just like this, keep it close to your body.

Seeing Ling Xiche pointing the crossbow at him, the assassin knew that his sword might not be as fast as the crossbow in his hand, so he drew the sword from Shen Chen's body, turned around and stepped on the roof to get away.

Ling Xiche fired at him, and the arrow pierced his left back shoulder.This arrow almost caused the assassin to fall off the roof. He plucked off the shoulder on his back with one shot, and then quickly disappeared into the night with his excellent lightness kung fu.

Shen Chen couldn't support himself and fell down, Ling Xiche quickly supported him and let him lie on his lap.

"Shen Chen, hold on. Come on! Come on!"

Shen Chen held his hand, "Don't shout...I don't want...other people to disturb..."

Ling Xiche saw that he was covering the wound with his other hand, but blood was still coming out of the wound, so he put his hand over to hold the wound for him.

"I'll hold the wound for you, don't talk."

Ling Xiche pressed down hard, Shen Chen snorted, and subconsciously wanted to push away the hand pressing his wound.

"do not move!"

As soon as Shen Chen moved, Ling Xiche pressed even tighter, and Shen Chen snorted again due to the pain.

Seeing his painful expression, Ling Xiche coaxed softly, "Be patient, I know it hurts, but the wound is deep, if you don't press it like this, you will lose too much blood soon, bear it, be obedient, good."

"Xi Che..." Shen Chen raised his hand to touch his face, "I'm sorry...I might...can't...send you out of the palace... ..."

"Don't talk about it at this time." Ling Xiche looked around, "Why is there no one? Come!"

"Stop shouting..." Shen Chen smiled, "Because...for you to...go out smoothly...don't arouse suspicion... .I transferred all the nearby Custodians..."

Ling Xiche grabbed Shen Chen's hand, and pressed it on his wound, "Press the wound yourself, do you hear me with a little force, I'll call for someone to come over."

Ling Xiche wanted to put Shen Chen flat on the ground, but was held back by Shen Chen again.

"Don't go... okay..."

"I'm going to call someone over, and I'll be back soon."

"Don't..." Shen Chen still tugged at his clothes.

Ling Xiche thought that calling for someone to save him was the most important thing now, and wanted to walk by force, but he glanced at Shen Chen, and although it was dark, he could clearly see his eyes, the deep reluctance in his eyes , as if as long as Ling Xiche left, it was a farewell.

Ling Xiche didn't move any more, stayed by his side, patted him softly and said, "No matter what you want to say, you can talk about it after your injury is healed? I promise, I won't leave until your injury is all right. .You are bleeding a lot now, you must call someone over immediately."

"Xi Che... there is something...I have been hesitating...whether I should let you know...now...I still want to say ...If you don't talk about it...I'm afraid I won't...have a chance..."

What he said made Ling Xiche's calm heart flustered.

"Don't talk nonsense, what do you mean you have no chance? Just stop talking, and when you recover from your injury, I will listen to you slowly, okay?"

Shen Chen smiled, this smile was so relieved, like the expression on the face of a dying person.

"Actually...I will take you back to Chenle Palace...because...I have admired you...for ten years..."

Ling Xiche froze, not knowing how to react.

"I didn't marry Zhenggong...that's because...I only have you in my heart...how can I marry someone else..."

Listening to Shen Chen's words, Ling Xiche felt as if a bolt of lightning had passed through his body.

Although his voice was so weak that he was as breathless as air, every word hit Ling Xiche's heart heavily.

"What are you talking about? Shen Chen, what are you talking about?"

Shen Chen ignored his shock and continued, "The garden is full of red plums...it was also the year I became the throne...someone planted...because... You've loved...five years...you've finally...been able to see them...at a glance..."

"Shen Chen..."

Ling Xiche himself didn't realize that his hand had touched Shen Chen's face.

Outside a palace gate not far away, Li Fuquan, who was in charge of receiving them, waited for a long time but did not see them coming. He was worried, so he took a lantern and came over to have a look, who knew that he almost fainted from fright.

Ling Xiche froze in place holding Shen Chen, and Shen Chen was lying in Ling Xiche's arms with a large piece of blood on his body.

"Come on! Come on! The emperor is injured! Come on!"

Li Fuquan's shrill and loud shouts immediately called many palace servants who were on duty at night, and everyone who came over was terrified to see this scene.

"My God! What's going on!"

"His Majesty!"

"What's wrong, Your Majesty!"

"Quick! Hurry up and pass on to the imperial physician!"

Seeing the imperial guards rushing over, Ling Xiche came back to his senses.

At this time, the imperial guards also came towards Ling Xiche, "Ms. Concubine Mei, what happened just now?"

Ling Xiche calmly said, "There was an assassin just now. I shot the assassin on the left back shoulder. The wound should not be shallow, so he can't run far alone. You go, order now, seal the entire imperial city, post arrest notices, Search the palace one palace after another, and the assassin will definitely find it."

The imperial guards were a little bit confused, "My Concubine Mei, the emperor needs to order the emperor to seal the imperial city, or the king of Jin, otherwise we have no right to seal the city gates at will."

Ling Xiche looked down at Shen Chen, he was already unconscious.

"Can't you see that the emperor is like this now? How can I give you an order!"

"Concubine Mei calm down, this minister is only following orders."

Ling Xiche had no choice, Shen Chen's injury was more important than catching the assassin, so he sent Shen Chen back to Chenle Palace first.

Only Shen Chen and Ling Xiche were in the bedroom, the rest of the people retreated outside the door, and the imperial doctor had not arrived yet.

Ling Xiche gently wiped the cold sweat on Shen Chen's forehead with his cuff.

"Shen Chen, can you hear me now?"

Shen Chen opened his eyes with difficulty, "Xi Che..."

"Yeah." Ling Xiche held his hand, "Hang on, you'll be fine, hold on."

Shen Chen smiled weakly, "Are you worried about me...that's great..."

Ling Xiche helped him wipe off his sweat again, "The imperial doctor is coming soon, please persevere."

Shen Chen took off the badge with difficulty, and held it up with trembling hands.

"Xi Che...you take it..."

"This is your waistband, what are you doing for me?"

"You hold it...you can...go out of the palace...no one will stop you..."

At this time the imperial physician finally arrived, several imperial physicians stepped forward together, there was no place for Ling Xiche to sit beside the bed, and he got up and walked to the door of the bedroom.

Shen Chen's gaze followed Ling Xiche all the time, but he, Ling Xiche, opened the bedroom door with his waist card and walked out, and then disappeared from Shen Chen's sight.

He ended up...

still go...
