Pei Jin and I soon arrived at Jade City. Compared with before, it was much more prosperous. The streets and alleys were lively, and even the expressions on people's faces were different. Five years later, they had long forgotten about the subjugation of the country.

He was overcome with pain and worked hard to start a new life.

I think Pei Jin is somewhat disappointed. After all, he was once an important general of the Qing Kingdom and experienced that heroic war.

"Are you okay?" I asked him softly, but he was buying snacks on the roadside like nothing happened.

"I haven't eaten the steamed buns here for a long time. You should try it too." He tasted the steamed buns happily without any displeasure. "By the way, what did you just ask me if it was okay?"

"It's okay." I shook my head. Pei Jin always knows how to let go, that's why he is so happy. I should really learn from him on this.

"It seems that Yucheng is developing well. Then the emperor of the Red Kingdom did not treat the people badly."

"Do you really not mind that Qing Kingdom was destroyed?"

"Of course it's a lie to say that I don't mind, but the most important thing is the happiness of the people. Look, when you came to Yucheng before, have you ever seen such smiles on their faces?" It seems that he has been relieved.

Pei Jin wanted to find out about his relatives in Jade City, but everything here had changed, and it seemed not easy to find them. After several days, we found nothing.

That day, Pei Jin and I went out to eat on the street. Pei Jin suddenly stared intently at a woman not far away. Although the woman was wearing peasant clothes, her face was delicate and charming, and she had a unique charm.

I coughed next to Pei Jin and signaled him not to go too far. I don't mind if he looks at beautiful women occasionally, but there's no need to make his eyes fall.

However, Pei Jin didn't seem to have any reaction to my cough, and he walked straight towards the woman regardless.

"Pei Jin." I called him.

The woman turned around, and Pei Jin came up to her. I quickly followed her. What the hell was this Pei Jin doing?

The woman looked at Pei Jin in disbelief, her expression changing from horror to suspicion. Then she slowly walked up to Pei Jin, her eyes full of tears, and reached out to touch Pei Jin's face, but Pei Jin didn't resist at all. Oh my god,

How could he be with another woman in front of me in public...

I walked up and wanted to ask clearly, but I saw that Pei Jin also had tears in his eyes.

"Eighth sister."

"Jin'er, it's really you. You're not dead. Is it really you?"

It turned out that it was a reunion of relatives, no wonder we all looked at each other with tears in our eyes. I felt secretly funny at my exaggerated reaction just now. Seeing the trace of joy of finding a loved one on Pei Jin's face, I was also moved.

Pei Jin and I followed the eighth sister to her home on the outskirts of the city. Although the house was a bit simple, it was clean and tidy and had a faint fragrance of jasmine. I guess this eighth sister was also a well-organized person.

"Eighth sister, do you live here?" Pei Jin seemed a little surprised.

"Yes, after marrying your eighth brother-in-law, I have been living here. As long as I am happy, it will not be the same anywhere." The eighth sister smiled gently, showing full happiness.

"In the past, you were the most pampered one in the family. I didn't expect you..."

"People can change. That year when the Red Army entered the city, my father took us to the countryside to seek refuge. However, I insisted on going back to find the forgotten jewelry. As a result, I ran into the Red Army and injured the servants who protected me. Fortunately, you were there at that time.

The eighth brother-in-law appeared in time and saved me. He also made me understand that life is more important than anything else, and happiness is

A priceless treasure in life." Pei Jin and I listened quietly to the eighth sister's story. Sometimes we have experienced war, and not all memories will turn into pain. "Okay, don't just talk about me. What about you?

Beauty, what's going on?" The eighth sister suddenly turned her eyes to me, and I felt a little embarrassed.

"She is Yi Yang."

"So you are Yi Yang. It's great that you two can be together." It seems that Eighth Sister has heard about me for a long time. Thinking about it this way, Pei Jin and Eighth Sister must have a very good relationship.

"By the way, eighth sister, are your father and other sisters okay?"

"My father is the village head of the nearby Yuan'an Village and is very popular among the villagers. He is also happy to enjoy his old age in the countryside. The eldest, second and sixth sisters are with him. The third sister is in nearby Chi County, and the third brother-in-law lives there now.

Magistrate; the fourth sister and the fifth sister went with the fourth brother-in-law and the fifth brother-in-law

She went to Yancheng to do business and lived a good life. Seventh sister and nine sisters were in Belvedere. Last year, nine sisters got married. Her husband’s family is also a wealthy family in the local area. Her brother-in-law is also good to her. She even wrote a letter two days ago.

He said that every day is like living in a honeypot. As for Shimei..."

"What's wrong with Tenth Sister?"

"Hey, I still can't change my playful character. She said she wanted to make a career in the world. She left a letter and left. It's been almost two years. Her father is often worried about her. Fortunately, she wrote a letter last month.

, saying everything is fine, let us not worry about this child, when will we be able to stop worrying about this child?"

"Isn't that what the Tenth Sister is like? Don't worry about her. Her martial arts is the best among us. I'm afraid if she doesn't go out and explore the world, she herself will feel sorry for her martial arts skills."

"You will protect her."

Pei Jin's family is still very big, and it's already dark just listening to their daily routine. But Pei Jin can find his family, and I'm really happy for him.

The next day, Pei Jin couldn't wait to go with his eighth sister to see his father, but I couldn't go with Pei Jin because I received the news that Zi Yu was rushing to Jade City.

"Ziyu may be arriving in Yucheng soon. It would be better for me to wait for her in the city." Calculating the time, Ziyu may be arriving soon. If he is not waiting for her in Yucheng at this time, it will be troublesome if he misses it.

"Then...I'll go see my father first and be back soon. After I pick up Ziyu, I will take you home to meet your future father-in-law." Pei Jin smiled playfully. I was a little apologetic, but with his understanding, I just accepted it.

No longer worried. "Although I have left Weixi now, you still have to be careful about everything. The eighth brother-in-law will stay with you in the city, and I will rush back as soon as possible." He was still worried about me.

I nodded, and then bid farewell to Pei Jin and the eighth sister. The eighth brother-in-law is honest, kind, and has good martial arts. With him by my side, I feel at ease.

The eighth brother-in-law helped me settle down in an inn in the center of Yucheng, which would make it much more convenient to wait for Ziyu. I sent her a text message, thinking that I would see her soon, and I felt inexplicably excited.

At noon, the waiter brought me food. I wanted to invite the eighth brother-in-law to come and eat with me, but the waiter said that the eighth brother-in-law had already eaten and went out to do errands, so I had to eat alone. Pei Jin had been there a few days ago.

It's really a bit lonely when I'm alone with you.

As I was eating, I suddenly became dizzy. My hands and feet were so weak that I couldn't even pick up chopsticks. Everything in front of me became increasingly blurry. I heard the door creak open and a woman walked in. She looked a bit like

Wu Qingfang, but I had no time to identify who she was. My head dropped heavily to the table and I could no longer open my eyes.

When I had some consciousness, I vaguely felt that I was lying on a soft and comfortable big bed, but my body felt uncomfortable. My chest was so tight that I couldn't breathe. I wanted to open my eyes, but I couldn't. This was

Is it a dream, Pei Jin? I feel so uncomfortable, Pei Jin. I keep calling Pei Jin’s name, as if only in this way can I have the strength to continue breathing and living.

Someone seemed to be taking my pulse, and some voices came from far away. I don’t know if they were illusions or real.

"Your Majesty, this girl has a poison called Huishen Powder in her body. I'm afraid she won't survive the night without an antidote."

"Listen, if she can't be cured, you can just wait to be buried with her." The voice was domineering and majestic, and the anger was terrifying. It was so familiar.

"Yes...yes, Your Majesty, I will try my best..."

"Your Majesty, we have searched the whole city and haven't found the woman yet."

"You bunch of trash, keep looking for me, otherwise you don't have to come back alive to see me."

"My lord, after all, this is the territory of the Red Kingdom, and many things are inconvenient..."

"I don't care whether this is the Kingdom of Red or the Kingdom of Heaven. In short, we must find the woman and the antidote, do you hear me?"

"Yes...yes."

"Where's Si Bi? Why haven't you come yet? How did you pick me up?"

"Mr. Sibi... will be here soon. Please be patient, Your Majesty."

"roll."

I thought that was Yelu Hongye's voice, but this was probably a dream. Shouldn't I be waiting for Ziyu in Yucheng? And where am I now?

I don't know, I only know that every breath becomes more and more difficult. Pei Jin, I really want to... see you.

I don’t know how long it took, but I finally slowly opened my eyes and saw a room that was exquisitely decorated but strange. Where was this place? Beside me, there was an old man with white hair, white eyebrows and white beard, with a kind face. Could it be that

Is this paradise?

"Girl, you finally woke up, let me feel your pulse again." The old man felt my pulse as if it was a gesture, which meant that I was still alive, but what on earth was going on?

At this time, a familiar face suddenly appeared in front of me, it was Yelu Hongye, why him? At this time, he had lost a lot of weight, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was haggard, and the concern that could not be concealed made him

I was a little surprised. I had long lost my use value to him. Why did he save me again and again?

"Your Majesty, the poison in this girl's body has not been completely discharged. Because the poison is extremely toxic and we don't have an antidote, we can only use another medicine to overcome the poison. Therefore, it may take longer to recover."

"I don't care how much time or money it takes, as long as I can save her." Yelu Hongye looked directly at me, but I turned my head and didn't dare to look back. I already owed him twice, the favor of life,

What should I get in return?

"Yes, I understand."

"Mr. Sibi, I really appreciate you this time. You are willing to come to this far away place for me."

"It's my honor to work for the prince. I just hope that the prince will not forget to promise me something." A gloom flashed in the old man's eyes, and I was a little uneasy. If Yelu Hongye had to pay anything more for this, I really don't know what to do.

How to face him.

"I know what's going on, so please step back first." Yelu's cold tone contained a hint of helplessness.

"yes."

Yelu Hongye and I were the only ones left in the room. I still felt weak, and I didn't dare to face Yelu Hongye at this time.

"Why save me?" I tilted my head and couldn't make a loud sound, but I knew he really heard me.

"No reason, I just don't want anything to happen to you."

"How was your injury last time?"

"If something happens, will I be here?" I knew he didn't mean to argue with me, he was just angry that I didn't even give him a straight look.
