She hugged Pei Jinting tightly, and the pain in her chest was so vivid that it made her gasp in pain. Her heart felt like a big stone was weighing on her, and she was hesitant and conflicted.
She didn't dare tell Pei Jinting about the bond between them.
Why don't you want to find out, and why don't you think that there is a slight possibility that King Qin's trap is a paper tiger, which can be broken with one poke.
She knows her feelings for Pei Jinting better than anyone else.
In the past, he was the one who protected her. This time, she wanted to change it and let her protect him.
But her ability is so weak, and even now, he is protecting her from getting hurt.
After Pei Jinting was injured, He Zheng and his men surrounded the two of them like iron barrels.
He Zheng took the crown prince from Gu Qingyuan. Although his hands were shaking, he was unusually calm. He ordered the accompanying guards,
"Get in the car. Leave some to patrol around for suspicious people. Don't let the assassin you catch die."
At the end of the sentence, he gritted his teeth and jumped out from between his teeth viciously.
The scene was chaotic, but surprisingly quiet.
Before getting on the carriage, Gu Qingyuan turned around and looked at the top floor of Linjiang Fairy. King Qin was standing at the railing looking down. The lights behind him flickered, illuminating his face and making it unclear.
The cramped carriage was suffocating.
The way back is so long.
Gu Qingyuan looked at Pei Jinting closely, her heart suffocating badly.
With trembling hands, she protected Pei Jinting's head and hugged his body to prevent the bumps of the carriage from touching the arrow on his back.
Pei Jinting had cold sweat on his forehead, but he still gently comforted him,
"Be good and Yuanyuan. There is nothing wrong with being your husband."
Gu Qingyuan didn't say anything. She just hugged him tightly, tears falling drop by drop on the hand holding his back.
"I'm sorry. Pei Jingheng. I'm sorry."
She kept mumbling that she was sorry, and she apologized to him from the bottom of her heart.
If she hadn't kept her appointment today, if she could have calmed down just now, if she...
I'm sorry. Pei Jingheng.
"Pei Jingheng, it was me who hurt you. If it were me... you wouldn't have gotten hurt trying to save me."
Pei Jinting raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of Gu Qingyuan's eyes, with a smile on her lips, and said in a familiar, carefree tone,
"I won't save you in vain. You will have to repay your debt in the future..."
Repaying debts, with the ambiguity of being broken.
Although she understands, she understands even more that they will have no future in the future.
As soon as such a thought came to her mind, countless ice blades accumulated, stabbing her heart with great pain.
But in the end, he held it back, crying and laughing, "Okay. You can say whatever you want from now on."
As she spoke, she felt the cold wind biting her back and no warmth left.
The long street is long, and the carriage and the outside become two different worlds.
Gu Qingyuan hugged Pei Jinting, hoping that time would pass faster, and that Pei Jinting would be fine when she got to the house faster.
The guards had already rushed to invite the imperial doctor, and some also went to the palace to report the news.
As if time was about to freeze, we finally arrived at Pei Mansion.
Many people had been waiting in front of the door for a long time. Even the queen changed her clothes and came to the mansion lightly.
As soon as he got off the car, Pei Jinting was helped into the yard, where the imperial doctors gathered around the bedside.
Gu Qingyuan stood at the corner of the bed helplessly, and was then pushed to the door.
Her eyes were fixed on the couch not far away, trying to see Pei Jinting's condition through the swaying body.
The bloody veil in his hand has been twisted out of shape, and his heart is like a veil, being twisted and tightened again.
Pot after pot of bloody water came out from inside.
The smell of blood filled the room, and the arrows were thrown into the tub.
Gu Qingyuan panted desperately, like a dehydrated fish.
When the queen heard the news of Pei Jinting's assassination in the palace, she couldn't sit still at all. She changed her clothes, drove out of the palace, and arrived at Pei's house.
The face looks like a river in the twelfth lunar month, covered with a thick layer of ice.
Sitting on the chair, she looked at Gu Qingyuan who was kneeling on the ground.
"I heard someone said that you went to see King Qin? If it weren't for Jing Heng's sake, I would have killed you ten times or eight times..."
Jing Heng has always had the spirit of a dragon and a horse since he was a child, and he is majestic and majestic, but ever since he got together with Gu Qingyuan, he has always been covered in scars and is not alive or dead.
All this was because of Gu Qingyuan. Thinking of this, the queen's teeth itched with hatred, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
The queen looked at Gu Qingyuan angrily,
"I have never seen a girl like you who is so shameless and talks to a man about stealing his bride. You followed Jing Heng in the past and got a job that was not his wife."
"She's just like a plum blossom, not worthy of being Jing Heng's wife. Even letting you be my concubine is just a compliment."
It seemed that because of Pei Jinting's injury, the queen vented all her emotions.
Finally, she said coldly,
"Gu Qingyuan. It's best that nothing happens to Jingheng this time. If something happens, then you, the broom star, should stay away from Jingheng."
Finally reaching this point, Gu Qingyuan knelt on the ground and closed her eyes. She never understood where the queen's malice towards her came from.
She whispered,
"Your Majesty is aware that even if there is no such thing as snatching the bride, I'm sure my Majesty's ill will towards me will not be any less."
She remembered what Aunt Luo said. It was the Qin family who entered the palace, but by some strange combination of circumstances, she became Concubine Lu.
Wouldn't the queen know?
Her bold inquiry made the queen frown, her face full of displeasure, and her anger burst out.
"Bold. Who are you? You dare to speak to me like this."
"Come here, slap your mouth."
Gu Qingyuan raised her head, her eyes seemed to be filled with flames,
"Mother, why can't my mother enter the palace? You must have never thought that without my mother, there would still be Concubine Lu."
As soon as she finished speaking, the queen picked up the tea cup next to her and threw it towards Gu Qingyuan.
"Ms. Gu, you are so brave. Are you showing contempt for me and the royal family? Is there anything else you dare not do?"
"You are relying on Jingheng's love for you to act so wantonly!"
Gu Qingyuan's head was lowered, a few black hairs were pressed against her snow-white ears, and she turned a blind eye to the tea cup that fell in front of her, not moving at all.
The queen may have known about Qin's intention to enter the palace, but she didn't know that Qin and Cheng'en Gong became pregnant one night without knowing it.
Her disgust only comes from the fact that the Qin family was favored by the emperor back then.
Gu Qingyuan was lying on the ground. When she heard the exclamation of the imperial doctor inside, her heart twitched and she had no time to think about anything else.
Feeling desolate, I remembered what the Queen said, if something happens to Jing Heng...
If God allows it, she is willing to give half of her longevity to Pei Jinting.
As long as he is fine.
The queen heard the imperial doctor's exclamation and had no time to deal with Gu Qingyuan. She stood up, stepped on Gu Qingyuan's skirt that was scattered on the ground, and went to the bed.
Pei Jinting's situation turned out to be even darker than before, with a lifeless air.
The queen's heart suddenly tightened, and she quickly asked the imperial doctor,
"What happened?"
"Replying to the Queen. I just pulled out the arrow. The arrow was barbed and the wound was too deep. Now the Third Young Master can't stop bleeding. He is unconscious and the medicine to stop the bleeding cannot be fed in."
