Qi Yan stood in the middle of the dormitory, with a cold and sticky feeling on her body, which was coming from Beitang Shu's gaze.

After a while, Beitang Shu said quietly: "Who is the assassin?"

She chuckled: "How do I know? There are so many people in the world who want you to die. If you ask me, who should I ask?"

Beitangshu raised his hand and waved.

Qingluan brought a tray with a broken arrow on it. The arrow was in the shape of a petal and was faintly black.

"This is the arrow left behind by the assassin who shot His Majesty. It is called Thirteen Lotus. This arrow is made of special materials and is uniquely made. It is not something that ordinary small countries can make." Qingluan handed the tray to Qi Yan: "The arrow was originally The closed one will bloom like a flower after piercing the flesh and blood, with a total of thirteen petals. If it is shot in the heart, you will definitely die."

After listening to Qingluan's explanation, Qi Yan nodded regretfully: "Unfortunately, the assassin didn't shoot accurately."

She is also very good at riding and shooting. If she had known that Fang Lanxu had such a treasure in his hands, she should have let him give it to her.

Beitang Shu sneered: "This arrow is rare, so it's not difficult to check, but there is a more direct way to prove it."

Qi Yan frowned, she had an intuition that this must not be a good move.

Sure enough, Beitang Shu asked someone to carry her out, carry her to the main entrance of his dormitory, and tie her to a tree.

He was wearing a long robe and stood in front of the temple, looking far away as if he was looking for something on the surrounding eaves.

"Pass the order, today I am going to test the arrow with Princess Wei."

"Yes!"

The early spring night still carried the coldness of winter, and Qi Yan was tied to a tree with iron chains and shivering from the cold.

Her mouth was so swollen with cotton stuffing that she couldn't say anything except moaning.

There were torches burning all around.

Several rows of firelight made the front of the temple as bright as day.

Qi Yan knew that Beitang Shu wanted to use this method to force the assassin to show up. He might have guessed or confirmed that the assassin was from the Kingdom of Wei, so he came up with this strategy.

Beitang Shu and she knew each other well that he would not kill her, but the young general did not know that Fang Lanxu was so loyal to Wei Kingdom that he would not watch her die under random arrows.

He must not show up, it would be best if he had already left the palace.

As time passed, Beitang Shu lost his patience. The light from the torch shone on his handsome and flawless face, but did not add warmth. He called the archers with an indifferent expression and stood in a row facing Qi Yan.

"Open the bow."

Following Beitang Shu's order, more than a dozen archers raised their arms, hung strings and drew their bows, aiming their sharp arrows at the delicate body on the tree.

Qi Yan panicked.

She was not afraid of death, but she heard the system's detection at this time.

D77: [Fang Lanxu appears nearby. He is detected on the roof directly opposite you and to the left. There is a tree crown hiding his figure. 】

Qi Yan was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, no, Fang Lanxu couldn't show up.

To put it bluntly, Beitang Shu was just suspicious at the moment and wanted to use her to confirm whether the assassin was from the Wei Kingdom. Once Fang Lanxu appeared, there would be no room for maneuver.

Can't come out! Please do not!

D77: [Sir, Fang Lanxu is trying to move this way. 】

Qi Yan's heartbeat accelerated, as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She was so anxious that she wanted to stamp her feet, but she held it back.

Beitang Shu stared at Qi Yan.

He slowly raised his hand.

The fingers on her hands were slender and clean. As long as she waved downwards, a dozen arrows would smash her into a sieve.

Qi Yan shook her head.

D77: [Sir, Fang Lanxu is coming out! 】

Fang Lanxu, this fool, if Beitang Shu wanted to kill her, he would have done it long ago, why wait until now to kidnap her out? This was obviously just for him.

In desperation, Qi Yan ordered D77 to modify his physical condition.

The internal organs were twisted together in an instant, Qi Yan's pupils dilated due to pain, and the rag at the corner of her mouth was soaked red with blood. Her consciousness gradually became faint, and Beitang Shu's face became increasingly blurred.

Eventually, her head tilted to the side and she fell unconscious.

Beitang Shu's heart tightened and he immediately ordered the archers to retreat. He strode over and took out the cotton cloth from her mouth.

The woman was in a coma, with blood spilling from the corners of her mouth.

She closed her eyes tightly and looked pale, as if she had lost all life.

How could this be?

"Call the imperial doctor!" Beitangshu's eyes were red, and he cut off the buttons of the iron rope with his knife, loosened her, and carried her into the bedroom, ignoring the wound on his shoulder.

The middle-aged imperial doctor rushed over and respectfully diagnosed his pulse.

As the pulse condition changed, the imperial doctor's expression became more and more solemn.

How could her internal organs be so severely damaged?

But it's okay, it can be cured.

"Your Majesty, I want to give you acupuncture now."

Beitang stared at him for a long time, until the doctor's head nearly hit the ground.

"quick."

"Yes."

Several palace maids were left to serve in the dormitory, and the imperial doctor carefully stimulated the acupuncture points on the women's bodies with filiform needles.

Beitang Shu sat aside, frowning. He looked back from time to time to observe her situation, worried in his heart.

Maybe he was worried that no one would know the whereabouts of the Jade Seal of Wei Kingdom after her death, or maybe it was too easy for her to die like this. In short, he was afraid that something would happen to her.

"How is it?"

This is the third time he has asked.

The imperial doctor sweated profusely: "I'm almost ready, Your Majesty."

With a slight cough, the woman on the bed slowly woke up.

She was hoarse and her voice was dry: "Where is this..."

She fainted too suddenly, her memory was missing, and she couldn't connect for a moment.

Bei Tangshu walked to the bed, the wound on his shoulder ached faintly. Now that he saw her waking up, he breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time felt inexplicably irritated.

He raised her chin and sneered: "This is the Hall of Hell, and you were shot to death by thousands of arrows."

She blinked in confusion, and her moist eyes suddenly showed joy: "You're dead too? That's great."

Beitangshu: "..."

All the people in the palace held their breath and concentrated, and no one dared to say a word. I am afraid that this is the only person in the world who can provoke the King of Jin and still live well.

The imperial doctor spoke at the right time: "The medicine that the girl took before needs to be changed, and the medicine should be more powerful. Recently, the diet should be light, avoid fishy, ​​sweet, spicy, cold..."

She frowned at that.

The imperial doctor gave some further instructions on nursing care, then stood up and left.

She looked around, now that she had recovered, she knew where she was.

She stood up with difficulty and said weakly: "Whether the assassin is caught or not, I should have nothing to do here, so I will go back first."

"Where are you going back?"

"Yonghua Palace."

Beitang Shu's narrow eyes looked at her with a half-smile, "You don't have to go anywhere, you will live here from now on." He touched the back of her neck and pinched it gently: "I will take care of your body."
