Li Xin's injuries were not light, but they were not very serious, mainly because of the fact that dealing with those two assassins made him haggard, plus blood loss, he almost fainted directly.

The little girl's cry made Li Xin barely sober up, and finally staggered back to the house and lay on the bed.

To this day, he has only been in this world for a month, but the Pingnan Hou Mansion has already attacked him three times, the first two times were to use intimidation to try to drive him out of the capital, and this time it was even more excessive, trying to kill him directly.

Fortunately, Li Xin did not die.

He lay on his bed, rested for a while, and after regaining a little strength, with the help of Zhong Xiaoxiao, took off his coat.

At this time, his cotton coat was almost stained with blood, and Li Xin took off his underwear only to see the wound on his right arm.

The wound was half a foot long and nearly an inch deep, and the bone could almost be seen.

The charcoal girl couldn't stop shedding tears, she was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly, she took Li Xin's hand, choked up, and said, "Brother, let's go..."

A sharp pain struck, Li Xin saw sweat on his forehead, and said in a low voice: "Where to go?" ”

Zhong Xiaoxiao cried and said: "It's good to go anywhere, there are bad people in the capital." ”

Li Xin shook his head, stretched out his left hand and touched the little girl's head, and said softly: "If you can't hide, you go and help your brother boil some hot water, and bring a little salt." ”

This kind of wound must be disinfected in time, otherwise it is easy to get tetanus, and the medical conditions in this era are extremely poor, and they do not understand disinfection, so many people die of serious injuries.

Burning fire is her forte, the little girl wiped her tears, went to the kitchen to help Li Xin boil a basin of hot water, staggered over, Li Xin let her pour more than half, only a small half basin remained, and then melted a piece of salt into it.

Boiling salt water can be sterilized, although it is not as effective as alcohol, but in this era there is no alcohol, so it can only be used first.

Li Xin couldn't move with one hand, so he handed a clean cloth to the little girl's hand and said softly: "Use this to help me clean my wounds." ”

Zhong Xiaoxiao wiped her tears, took the white cloth, dipped it in a little salt water, and began to help Li Xin clean his wounds.

Dipped in salt water, the white cloth touched Li Xin's right arm.

"Hiss......"

The taste of sprinkling salt on the wound was really uncomfortable, Li Xin clenched his teeth, cold sweat on his forehead did not stop, and he almost collapsed.

The little girl hurriedly stopped and was about to start crying again, Li Xin gritted her teeth and said, "Go on." ”

This is self-help, a little pain is nothing, if he really has tetanus, he will die in this courtyard in a month or two at most.

His body is still very weak, and it is basically impossible to carry it hard.

Zhong Xiaoxiao's face turned pale, and he tearfully helped Li Xin clean the wound, and then Li Xin sprinkled the wound with the medicine left by Zhang Xiao, and then asked the little girl to wrap the wound with a white cloth.

After a series of times, it was already midnight, and Li Xin was half lying on his bed, panting for breath.

This day is the first day of the Lunar New Year in the eighteenth year of Chengde, and he has had a very bad time this year.

After resting for a while, Li Xin patted the little girl who was guarding next to him and said softly: "Okay, my brother is fine, you go back to the house and sleep." ”

Although Li Xin and Xiaoya are commensurate with brother and sister, they are not related by blood after all, so they should pay attention to it, so after moving to the capital, they have always slept in separate rooms.

The little girl shook her head.

"I'm not going, I'm here to guard my brother."

Her expression was resolute: "Otherwise, another wicked person will come to harm my brother." ”

Li Xin shook his head and didn't say anything, at this time a feeling of weakness hit him, he closed his eyes slightly and fell asleep.

…………

The next morning, when Li Xin was still sleeping in the room, Zhong Xiaoxiao got up early and went to the kitchen to cook a few white eggs for Li Xin.

At the gate of the courtyard, there was the sound of footsteps.

The little girl hurriedly ran to the courtyard to look, only to see a noble man in purple clothes at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the wooden door that was kicked down at the gate of the courtyard, and frowned deeply.

Immediately, he saw Zhong Xiaoxiao holding a few eggs in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Girl, take me to your brother."

……

In Li Xin's room, when the seventh prince of the dynasty, His Royal Highness King Wei Ji Wen sat on the edge of Li Xin's bed, frowned and looked at Li Xin, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, and sighed in a low voice: "In the past few days, the court and the clan have many things to be busy, this king is really inseparable, and he has no other energy to take care of other things. ”

Li Xin half sat on the bed, closed his eyes slightly, and said softly: "Your Highness, what happened last night is definitely not a coincidence. ”

"Nature is not a coincidence."

The Seventh Prince sneered: "With the presence of that little marquis of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, where could it be a coincidence, what happened last night, it's just ...... Attempted murder only. ”

The matter is very clear, everyone can see it, but no one has evidence, so the Seven Princes have no way to take Li Chun.

Li Xin took a few deep breaths and said softly, "Your Highness, can you tell me in detail about the assassination of Your Majesty last night." ”

The Seventh Prince nodded, and told him what happened at the gate of the imperial city last night, and when he said that Li Chun rushed into the scene with his generals to escort him, Li Xin coughed and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, there is definitely something wrong with this Li Chun, those assassins may have been instructed by him!" ”

"This can't be."

The Seventh Prince shook his head: "Li Chun will definitely not, and he will not dare to do this, this king thought about this matter, most likely because he happened to encounter this matter, and then when he was rounding up the assassins, Li Chun had a crooked mind and wanted to use this matter to attack you." ”

Li Xin snorted: "If those assassins were not instructed by Li Chun, the timing of his appearance to escort would be too coincidental." ”

Ji Wen still shook his head, his face was serious: "Don't delve into this matter, no matter what, those assassins will not have anything to do with the Pingnan Hou Mansion, and they can't have anything to do with it." ”

The Seventh Prince's face was full of solemnity: "This is the momentum accumulated by the Pingnan Hou Mansion for so many years, we can only suffer a dumb loss, and make up for it from other things, you are a smart person, you should think clearly." ”

Li Xin was silent for a moment, and then understood what the Seventh Prince was talking about.

Pingnan Marquis Li Shen has military power in his hands, so the Pingnan Marquis Mansion will not plot assassination, nor can it plot assassination, and if this matter is investigated, His Majesty's side will not be able to get by.

Because, this incident will destroy the tacit understanding between the prince of Chengde and Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan.

The Seventh Prince sighed softly: "The relationship between Li Shen and his father is too heavy, this matter cannot shake his father's opinion of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, if there is no empirical evidence, rashly raising this matter will only cause his father's disgust." ”

This is the momentum accumulated by the Pingnan Hou Mansion.

Li Xin nodded and said softly: "Your Highness put it down, I can understand." ”

The young man was silent for a moment, and finally said in a low voice: "We will not pursue this matter, but Your Highness had better find a way to let Your Majesty know about my injury......

The eyes of the Seven Princes lit up.

A thousand miles of embankment collapses in an anthill, and there must always be an ant that bites the first bite.

If his father knew about this, even if it did not affect Li Shen's status, Li Chun, the little marquis of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, would inevitably cause his father's dissatisfaction.

The Seventh Prince glanced at Li Xin, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Brother Xin is so smart, this matter will be done." ”

"What's more, this matter is not all a disaster, Brother Xin, you killed two assassins, and this king will report to the court when he turns around, and find a way to find an errand for you in the court."
