Chapter 1743 - 1743 Sour
1743 Sour
Ah ‘Ji’ er was right. The quicksand Army had set up a trap. Seeing that the cloud Sea Army behind them didn’t chase after them, Gu Xin felt a little regretful.
She now felt that she understood Angel a little more. If it weren’t for the fact that the life-and-death situation between the two sides was imminent, she felt that she could take the time to anger Angel to death.
It was already night time when they returned to the city. General Ying came to welcome them with a few Deputy generals.
“Third miss, general Chi is still alive!” The one who spoke was a Deputy general from the Peng family. He was so grateful that he was about to cry.
“Still not awake?” Gu Xin asked as she got off the horse.
“No, no, I didn’t. However, the maidservant beside the third young lady said that her condition was stable for the time being. I’m not feverish, but I’ve used up too much energy and need to rest for a while.” The Deputy general said excitedly.
“Yes, I’ll go see him!” Gu Xin nodded and asked someone to bring her to Peng sanlang’s place.
Cheng huaijin didn’t follow.
Peng sanlang was arranged to stay at Gu Xin’s place. The great Zhou Army returned first. Peng sanlang’s body was already clean. However, there was not a single part of his body that was uninjured. He was wrapped in cloth.
Xinxin, you stabbed your sword so deep and didn’t kill him. How did you do it? ” Princess Jinghe asked curiously when she saw Gu Xin enter.
Gu Hui and the others who stayed in the city already knew about the incident at the city gate tower. They felt that it was simply unbelievable.
“Third brother Peng’s heart is different from our looks. The hearts of ordinary people grew on one side, while he grew on the other. Therefore, ah ‘Ji’ er and the others must have thought that third brother Peng was dead. After I stabbed him just now, I immediately fed him medicine and then quickly got someone to bring him back for treatment. That’s why he didn’t die.” Gu Xin explained.
What she said was the truth. However, Peng sanlang was still alive partly because the position of his heart was different from others. On the other hand, Gu Xin had the Jade bead. As long as she was still breathing, the Jade bead could keep her alive.
“Is it different? How did you know?” Princess Jinghe asked.
“I’ve heard grandma Xiao mention it. Grandma Xiao had said that not everyone’s heart was on one side of the world. There were a few people who had their hearts on the other side. She had used third brother Peng as an example. She had also heard Grandpa Peng mention it before. I thought that Grandpa Peng wouldn’t lie about this, so I gave it a try.” Gu Xin explained.
Princess Jinghe nodded her head and touched her face. She then touched herself and felt that what Gu Xin said was true.
Gu Hui gave Gu Xin a deep bow and Gu Xin jumped in shock, ” “Big sister, what are you doing?”
“Thank you, Xin Xin, for saving sanlang’s life,” Gu Hui said. This bow of mine represents the Peng family.”
Gu Xin’s heart ached. big sister, you’re speaking as if you’re only a member of the Peng family and not of the Gu family. Sigh!
Gu Hui patted her shoulder and said, ” it’s all the same. I’m a member of the Gu family first. I’m a member of the Peng family later. You’re my third sister, and he’s my husband’s third brother. Don’t be unhappy.”
Gu Xin let out a breath of air and went forward to check on Peng sanlang.
After the examination, she called her maidservant and wrote a prescription for her to get the medicine from yingshi Yuding. She also instructed her on how to take care of Peng sanlang and what to pay attention to.
After she was done, she left with Gu Hui and the others and went to Cheng huaijin’s place.
Cheng huaijin didn’t look like he was in a good mood, and anyone could tell.
