The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Chapter 142: Xiao Jinxing Critically Ill, Ye Qichi Confronts Bai Mowan



Imperial Palace, palace gate.

The ground is covered with blood, corpses lay everywhere.

Xiao Zhanping is immensely pleased at the moment for having captured Yu Qingyuan and resolving the crisis.

For him.

Whether it is his guards or Yu Qingyuan's secret party, their deaths are deemed fitting.

His guards exist to protect his life. To die for him is an utmost honor.

As for the secret party of Yu Qingyuan, they are nothing but treacherous rebels whose deaths are insignificant.

Therefore, to Xiao Zhanping.

The life or death of others hardly matters.

What he is more concerned about now is how to reward those who have contributed to saving him.

Ye Qichi is the leading contributor.

If it weren't for her delaying the Empress and distracting her attention, he certainly would not have survived this easily.

Ye Qichi seems somewhat indifferent.

Saving the Emperor and his company was an inevitable matter.

Although the original text lacks details, but ultimately the Empress's coup fails, she naturally couldn't feel that she could truly overturn the plot and had decided from the beginning not to assist Yu Qingyuan, thus naturally siding with Xiao Zhanping.

She is just a bit melancholic.

Just now, she almost could have gotten away.

That steed even now tempts her heart.

Of course.

Even if Wu Xufan had not arrived so quickly, she thinks she probably would not have left.

After all, if she wanted to leave, she would have done so long ago.

Not waiting until today.

But she truly couldn't walk away carefree without any worries just yet.

Still.

She couldn't just disregard Minister Mansion.

She secretly sighs.

Just as she was about to thank the Emperor.

Xiao Jinxing suddenly fell hard to the ground.

"Brother Xiao!" Bai Mowan, beside him, forgets all decorum in that moment and kneels beside him to embrace his body.

Calling Xiao Jinxing is no longer a term of respect.

The two of them even share a tragically beautiful, Romeo-and-Juliet-like feeling of parting.

Ye Qichi just watches indifferently.

Xiao Zhanping seems to only then remember, his son shielded him from a lethal sword blow, his expression becoming tense instantly, "Summon the Imperial Physician, hurry, bring the Imperial Physician to me!"

Upon that order.

Someone hastily leaves.

Xiao Jinxing is also carried away by a group to the palace.

Due to the severity of Xiao Jinxing's injuries, the situation momentarily becomes chaotic again.

Inside the sleeping quarters.

Several Imperial Physicians begin treating Xiao Jinxing.

Xiao Zhanping sits on the Dragon Throne inside the palace, his expression solemn as he awaits the physician's treatment.

Behind the screen.

Bai Mowan lies beside Xiao Jinxing, looking at his weak, unconscious state, her heart aching immensely.

Every time she sees Xiao Jinxing injured, she recalls the image of when he died for her in the past…

No.

She doesn't want the tragedy of her past life to happen again.

She doesn't want Xiao Jinxing to die again.

Bai Mowan's eyes are wet with unshed tears, tears rolling in her eyes, "Brother Xiao, you must hold on, you must hold on, Brother Xiao I beg you not to die, don't die…"

The sound of her grief makes everyone feel deeply uncomfortable.

Xiao Zhanping sitting on the Dragon Throne outside also clenches his fists tight.

Ye Qichi actually is also beside Xiao Jinxing at this moment.

No matter what their private relationship is, to outsiders, they are still husband and wife.

So she must stay by his side.

Only...

She just keeps a greater distance than Bai Mowan.

Of course, she doesn't think there's anything inappropriate with that.

As long as Bai Mowan herself doesn't feel it breached her propriety or tarnished her reputation, it's fine.

And the reason she stands beside Xiao Jinxing now without walking away, and even earnestly observes him, is not because of worry but out of a physician's instinct observing his injuries.

At this moment, the Imperial Physician cuts open Xiao Jinxing's clothing with scissors.

After cutting, a deep wound appears on his left chest, currently bleeding.

Ye Qichi frowns slightly.

Given the shape of the wound and the bleeding condition, it's very likely that the heart was indeed injured!

She truly admires, Xiao Jinxing, after taking a sword, actually held on for so long before collapsing.

Her eyes narrow slightly, her mind contemplating.

"Imperial Physician, how is he? Is there any life-threatening danger?" Bai Mowan, seeing the wound on Xiao Jinxing, breaks down completely.

Such a deep sword wound, and so close to the heart... Bai Mowan dares not think further.

Seeing Xiao Jinxing unconscious and weak, her tears, wrapped up, finally begin to fall crazily.

"General Bai, do not panic. Allow this servant to diagnose first, assess His Highness's injuries thoroughly, and then conclude," the Imperial Physician quickly replies.
