Moreover, from the traces of their search, it was obvious that the prince had been bringing along the w.a.n.gfei with him all this time. Even when they encountered an ambush, he hadn"t left her behind."Someone from the village down below saw the prince and his wife. They said that they left after they killed the villagers!" A dark guard came to report in the dark night.
The gloomy look on Shang Li and Xuan Li"s faces dissipated slightly upon hearing this. "Where? "Quick, bring us there!"
Very quickly, Shang Li and Xuan Li arrived at the place where Yun Xie and Wei Iris lived, and on the bed, Xuan Li did indeed find the cloth that was on Yun Xie"s clothes.
"From the looks of it, His Highness should be severely injured. Otherwise, His Royal Highness wouldn"t be staying here all night!" Shang Li carefully a.n.a.lyzed.
"The people from the village said that the prince killed a couple from this family. But why would the prince kill them for no reason?" Xuan Li was very clear on his own master.
Although the prince was cruel and ruthless, he would never act against an innocent person.
Zhang Er also knew that Yun Xie and Wei Ri"s statuses were extraordinary, so he naturally could not reveal the truth of the matter. "How would I know that your master would kill my elder brother and elder sister? Anyway, by the time I returned, they had already run away!"
After saying that, Zhang Er and the rest of the villagers echoed his sentiments. Naturally, they would not mention how they had chased after Yun Xie and Wei Ri.
Anyway, they pretend they don"t know anything.
Xuan Li and Shang Li"s expressions immediately changed. The prince couldn"t have killed people for no reason at all. According to these villagers, if they saved the prince and his wife, then the prince couldn"t have killed these two villagers.
They were killed by those a.s.sa.s.sins!
Xuan Li and Shang Li immediately split up to search for the Cloud Union Guard Iris. They were afraid that if they were a step too late, their prince would be in danger.
Wei Iris was sitting on a rock, looking at the burning firewood in front of her. She was almost exhausted, as if she had just broken down.
The wounds on his body were not deep. They were all superficial wounds, but they were extremely painful.
In addition, she had spent a lot of effort to drag Yun Xie out of the gra.s.s and into the simple little house that she had built with mixed tree branches and dirt.
Although it was called a small house, it wasn"t even as big as a chicken coop.
Wei Iris had spread a layer of hay beneath it, found a few large pieces of dead wood nearby, and stuck them in it. Then she mixed the soil with water to fill the gap in the middle, and covered it with large patches of willow leaves.
People could only go in with their waists bent, and they could only lie flat in the cave.
Basically, this small house was only as wide as a double bed.
After Wei Iris stuffed Yun Xie into the small house, her entire body was spread out on the ground. If it wasn"t for the fact that the sky had darkened and the temperature had become even colder, Wei Ri wouldn"t have gotten up at all. This time Yun Xie probably really had fainted, otherwise, after sneezing so many times, Yun Xie wouldn"t have been so indifferent.
Wei Iris picked up some firewood, tossed it around for a while, and finally lit it up. Afterwards, she took out some dry food to eat.
The firelight shone on Wei Que"s face, but he didn"t feel the slightest bit of cold.
In the silence of the night, apart from this small spark of light, everything around him was dark and eerie.
It made Wei Iris anxious all the time.
Wei Qi knew that if they didn"t go out of this forest and find a place with people, they would starve to death here in a few days.
And Yun Xie was poisoned, he could not even walk a few steps.
Wei Iris hugged her knees as she curled up by Yun Xie"s side, adding another piece of firewood to the fire.
The gradually weakening flame leapt up, dancing happily on Wei Ri"s face.
If he placed Yun Xie here first, then he would walk into the market to find some people but he was also worried that there would be wild beasts here.
The current Yun Xie could not even beat her, how could he let go of the fact that he was just a wild beast?
She did not want to wait for her to come back to see Yun Xie"s pile of bones.
Furthermore, she would definitely not abandon Yun Xie and leave by herself. Even if Yun Xie were to protect her at the most dangerous time, she would not do so.
It wasn"t wrong for her to want to leave Yun Xie, but even if she wanted to leave, she couldn"t leave when Yun Xie needed her the most.
She was not a Guardian!
At the thought of the Guardian Officer, Wei Ri"s gaze suddenly turned heavy.
She did not know if the Guard Shu was willing to marry Marquis Wen Chang or if she was forced to.
However, if it was her, she would have to wait until Yun Xie"s body had recovered to the point where he would have to marry her.
But what about the Guard? When he married Marquis Wen Chang, Yun Xie had yet to die. The imperial physician had said that even if he was activated, he could still become a cripple.
And at this time, the Guard Shu Xie should have accompanied Yun Xie by his side, praying that Yun Xie would wake up soon.
Furthermore, she was married in such a luxurious and high-profile!
Yun Xie woke up to know that he definitely hated her, but he hated her, and couldn"t resist the feeling of love in his heart.
Now that Yun Xie had everything, naturally his hatred towards the Guard Officer Shu had lessened. When he heard Lady Shen say that she was the one who forced the Guard Officer Shu to marry, he reckoned that the knot in Yun Xie"s heart had already been lifted.
There was only a thin veil separating Yun Xie and Guard Officer Shu, the two of them, and that just depended on the person who attacked first.
"Zhu"er …." A low mumble was suddenly heard from behind Wei Ri.
Yun Xie"s eyes were closed, his lips were tightly shut, and he was in extreme pain.
Her fair neck was covered in layers of sweat.
"What did you say?" Yun Xie"s shout was very vague and Wei Ri couldn"t really tell who it was, "Zhu"er, Zhu"er …. Shu"er, Shu"er? Guard Officer Shu? "
Wei Iris recited, feeling more and more that Yun Xie was calling for the Guard Officer Shu!
Wei Ri"s heart chilled even more. She did not understand why the Guard Officer Shu was so scheming, acting in front of others and acting like a snake and scorpion girl behind her. Why did Yun Xie love her so much, even in his dreams he would call her by her name.
When a person was at their weakest, the weakness at the bottom of their heart would be exposed. She would sleep with Yun Xie every night, but she had never heard him say anything.
But tonight, Yun Xie had finally taken off the outer sh.e.l.l of his body, exposing his weak side.
Wei Ri really wanted to take off Yun Xie"s mask, to see how much pain and suffering Yun Xie was in right now.
However, when Wei Iris placed her hand on Yun Xie"s mask, the last thing Yun Xie said to her in the water was, "If you remove this duke"s mask, this duke will definitely kill you!"
If she lifted it up, Yun Xie would definitely kill her!
This sentence of Yun Xie"s did not sound like a joke.
