Ever since the Yang Mansion in Yangzhou City was destroyed and there was no trace of the treasure map, Ling Xi had already guessed in his mind, but he never asked Yun Yi.

"Is it for treasure hunting?"

Yun Yi was not surprised? He would have guessed it unexpectedly, after all, the person he fell in love with has always had a clear mind, so how could he not notice it.Now that the two have made their hearts clear, they should naturally treat each other frankly.

"Exactly. You should have heard about the treasonous treason by the Minister of Rites many years ago."

Ling Xi nodded, quietly waiting for him to continue talking.

Yun Yi thought about it, and said eloquently, "Back then, the Ning family had a treasure map in their hands. After the Ning family was raided and beheaded, that treasure map disappeared."

"So, do you think the person who framed Shangshu Ning came for the treasure map?"

Yun Yi shook his head, "It should be only one of the reasons. At that time, the concubine was favored by many concubines, and there were many eyes staring at her. As the concubine's natal family, the Ning family was naturally prosperous and all was damaged. When the Ning family fell, concubine mother Even if they are not executed, they can only end up in the cold palace. The people behind the scenes want to completely eliminate the threat of the concubine mother, and also want to seize the treasure map, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

When Ling Xi heard his deduction, it was almost in line with his previous conjecture, "As long as you find the person who competes for the treasure map, you can follow the clues to find the real culprit who framed Shangshu Ning."

From this point of view, there should be more than one person responsible for the culprit back then.There are only a few people in the harem, but it will take a lot of effort to find out the people in the former court who have colluded with them.

"Now A Yi has a treasure map in his hand, that person will definitely come to snatch it." I'm afraid their way back to Beijing will not be easy.

Yun Yi took out the parchment scroll, and looked at the corner of it as a piece in the lower right corner, "It is said that there are six treasure maps in total, and the final map can only be pieced together. Suppose the person has two treasure maps in his hand, we I have one piece in my hand, and there are still three left outside."

"No, we also have two pieces in our hands." As he spoke, he untied his belt under Yun Yi's surprised gaze.

"what are you doing?"

Ling Xi didn't answer, and then privately slipped a piece of sheepskin scroll from the inside of the clothes, which was the treasure map in the middle.

Yun Yi was stunned for a moment, seeing that the treasure map was handed to him, but he didn't take it for a long time, "Why... you want to give it to me?"

Ling Xi took his hand and gave him the treasure map directly, bending her lips and said, "It's useless for me to keep it, the reason I keep it with me is because I'm afraid it will fall into the wrong hands, if I let it go to the people , may cause another bloodbath. Here you go, I'm at ease."

Yun Yi looked down at the two maps in his hand, "Ling Xi... Could it be that you are the young man in white who challenged the owner of Nether Valley three years ago?"

Ling Xi smiled, "Exactly." When he saw Yun Yi looking at him, he had a complicated expression, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

There are different opinions about the young man in white, and Yun Yi has also heard about it.Those who can annihilate the Nether Valley are not idle people.But he didn't expect that the former No. [-] martial artist was actually the same person as the person in front of him.

Yunyi looked at him fixedly, and said solemnly, "I will definitely heal you."

The former martial arts masters are now difficult to perform, and they are accompanied by medicine all day long. This kind of gap is beyond human's ability to bear.It's like many years of hard work went to waste overnight, if it were another person, Bao Buqi would have given up on himself, and Ling Xi endured such loss, but he often smiled and showed others, never seeing him depressed.

Ling Xi understood what he meant as soon as he heard it, "I'm fine. Do you think I'm doing well now?" Although he was in poor health, he still had relatives and friends by his side, and now even Yunyi, So he has had enough.

He himself didn't care about it, but Yun Yi couldn't let it go, and he had already started thinking about how to find a better way to heal and recuperate.

When the carriage reached the mountain forest path, it had to slow down because the mountain road was rugged and the gravel blocked the road.

Suddenly, a cold light passed by, Yun Yi hugged Ling Xi and moved to the side, and saw a sharp arrow stuck straight in the place just now.

"There are assassins!"

The guard outside the carriage let out a loud roar, and the horse neighed, raising its front hooves and galloping all the way.Immediately afterwards, dozens of men in black jumped up from the jungle behind the flash stone and came straight to the carriage.

Yun Yi put Ling Xi down, "Stay in the car, I'll be right back."

With swords and swords outside, Ling Xi stayed alone in the carriage according to his words? I don't know what the situation outside the carriage is.

He believed that with Yun Yi's martial arts, it would not be a problem to deal with these assassins.

Suddenly hearing a strange movement, Ling Xi immediately propped up his body, rolled over on his side, his feet barely landed on the ground, and there was a bang, and the carriage was instantly blown into ruins.

"Ling Xi!"

Yun Yi fends off the assassins blocking the way, trying to get close to Ling Xi.However, the assassins were not the only ones in front of them. Cold arrows came from all directions, and Yun Yi dodged again and again, seeing that they were getting farther and farther away from Ling Xi.

Ling Xi snatched a treasured sword from his hand, and when defending against the enemy, he still did not forget to search for the figure of Yun Yi.Those people in black were all heading towards Yun Yi, and even if there were guards, they couldn't resist the large number of people on the other side.

I didn't expect the second wave of assassins to come so fast. It seems that the people behind the scenes not only wanted to seize the treasure map, but also made up their minds to prevent them from reaching the capital alive.

The carriage he and Yun Yi were riding in had been destroyed, and only Li Taiyi and his carriage remained, staggering under the siege of the assassins, and probably wouldn't be able to last much longer.

There are assassins besieging nearby, and ambushing shooters in the distance.The situation is extremely unfavorable for them.

Ling Xi fends off a group of men in black, and suddenly hears a noise behind him, and when he turns around, he sees several sharp arrows being fired, all of them are aimed at him.

"Ling Xi!"

When it was too late, it was too soon, a shadow flashed in front of his eyes, he was suddenly surrounded by people, and he turned and flew a few feet away.

Ling Xi casually saw a touch of red from the corner of his eye, and immediately grabbed his arm, "You're hurt!"

There was a long and narrow opening in the sleeve, from which bright red oozes out, and after a while it becomes somewhat dark.

Ling Xi thought inwardly, "The arrow is poisonous!"

"It's okay." Yun Yi was still protecting him, even though the movement of the sword was slow, he did not let him go, "Hold on."

Surrounded by assassins just now, Ling Xi has never been so impatient.

It won't work if this drags on, Yunyi's injury needs to be healed as soon as possible.

Gradually, Yun Yi became a little unstable, but a group of assassins fell down, and another group rushed up.

Seeing this, Ling Xi snatched the sword from Yun Yi's hand, blocked the assassin's sword move for him, and carried him into another carriage.

"Kill it out!"

Ling Xi shouted, tightening the reins, the horse threw off the man in black who was blocking the way, and galloped out of the crowd.The rest of the guards were red-eyed, and the horses followed closely behind.

I don't know how long I ran before throwing away the pursuers.It was getting late, only a few cicadas were heard around, Ling Xi pulled the reins, and the carriage stopped at the entrance of an unknown village.

"how is he?"

Doctor Li poked his head out, "His Royal Highness King Yi's poison can be cured, but we need to find a quiet and clean place as soon as possible, so that I can clean up your highness's wound, and then buy some herbs to come back."

Where they are currently, they can only settle in the dilapidated village in front of them, and if they go any further, they may have to sleep in the mountains.

Ling Xi immediately ordered his subordinates to go to the village to search, and they found a family. There were three thatched cottages in the yard, and only a young couple and a child lived there.

The couple took the money and specially vacated two thatched cottages for them.Time was running out, so Ling Xi only left Imperial Doctor Li in the room to clean up Yun Yi's wound, and she stood by the side, while the rest of the staff stayed outside.

Doctor Li used the burnt knife to cut open the dead flesh again, even though Yun Yi still frowned and uttered a raving in the coma room.

Ling Xi grabbed his hand, feeling the other party's sudden tightening, and immediately turned back and held it, ignoring other things.

Cloth towels for wiping blood were thrown down one after another, completely staining two basins of water red.

Doctor Li raised his arm and wiped the sweat off his forehead, "I have already cleaned up the remaining poison from the wound, and there is not much poison that has infiltrated the hall's body. I will go around to find herbs later, and come back to give it to Your Highness." Take it."

Ling Xi helped Yun Yi wrap up the gauze, keeping her eyes on her for a moment, "Excuse me, when you are looking for herbs? Take two guards with you, just in case."

"I know."

Doctor Li retired respectfully, leaving only the two of them.The house? everywhere? filled with blood.With a fishy smell, Ling Xi tore off the remaining half of Yunyi's sleeve and threw it into the basin, only to discover a red scar on his arm inadvertently.

He stopped and looked carefully, the scar was in the same position as the birthmark on his arm.

Where does he seem to have this scar? I've seen it before.

Thinking back, Ling Xi carefully helped him take off his blood-stained robe, in order to avoid his wound, she had to take it off for him half-supporting.clothing.

A piece of emerald jade slipped out from Yunyi's neckline and landed beside the pillow.Ling Xi picked it up and flipped through it, only to see the word "month" engraved on the lower right corner of the front of Cuiyu.

The color of this piece of jade ranges from light to dark, with several spots of dark green inlaid in it, and the pattern of phoenix flowers is engraved on it. In his memory, he has seen such a jadeite jade once before.

Ling Xi wandered between the emerald jade and the scar, and finally settled on Yun Yi's slightly pale face.

It was him.

Reminiscent of the reunion in Yangzhou, and all the things that followed, Ling Xi couldn't help laughing, probably this person would have recognized him a long time ago.

The boy from back then gradually merged with the person in front of him, Ling Xi leaned over, and quietly painted his eyebrows and eyes, and upon closer inspection, there was indeed a shadow of childhood.

"Young master." Ah Jiu walked in lightly, and whispered, "Would you like to eat something first? Here? There is nothing else, only rice porridge and corn pancakes."

"No need for now, just clean up here, and let me know when Doctor Li and the others come back."

Without the soft towel, Ling Xi could only use her sleeve to wipe Yun Yi's sweat, "Also, find some clean clothes."

The original clothes can no longer be worn, and when people wake up, they can't walk around in bloody underwear.
