Yun Qixi sat up, rubbed her swollen head, and looked at Yun Chong guiltily, muttering to himself, "Can you not be angry, I'm already miserable enough, it's fortunate that I didn't get infected by the plague, and I was almost burnt to death. I've already learnt my lesson."

"You're really very different from Qi Xi. Qi Xi definitely wouldn't make people worry so much." Yun Chong was clearly a little angry, but when he said that, it was mostly because of helplessness.

"If I was like her, I would have been slaughtered by others. How could I still be alive?" Yun Qixi knew that she should not refute him at this moment, she could just admit her wrongs, but she would often speak faster than her head, and she would not even think before spitting out her mouth.

When she said it, she was a little regretful, because she saw that Yun Chong's expression was a little ugly.

"I'm sorry, I was quick with my words." Yun Qixi lowered her head, her voice becoming softer.

Yun Chong nodded his head, his expression calm as he said, "You are right, you are indeed stronger and braver than her, but if you weren't so brazen, how would you have let yourself be trapped in this danger?"

"She knows how to endure and back off, so she ended up losing her life?"

After saying that, Yun Qixi clearly saw Yun Chong's face turn pale. She couldn't bear to continue the conversation, so she changed the topic and asked, "Is everyone alright?"

Yun Chong looked at her, and said, "Most people have been saved."

His words were tactful, but Yun Qixi understood. Most of them were saved, which meant that someone was still killed.

Bringing everyone together was her idea. At that time, she only thought of having more people and more strength, so that they wouldn't be easily bullied. She didn't expect that it would make it easier for others to take care of them. One had to know that most of the people in the house were innocent civilians, as well as many women and children. Even the three imperial physicians had forced them to come down. She was guilty of the whole thing.

At first, he had heard from the Qiao Er that several people had died. She didn't know who those people were, but how were Yun Qi and Xiao Yu?

As if he understood her silence, Yun Chong said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. You should consider yourself.

Yes, Shan Liancheng had told her that the wedding date was set for the fifteenth of the eighth month.

She had originally wanted Shan Liancheng to go to the Emperor's side to reject the marriage, but she hadn't thought that once she went out, so many things would happen. After returning, nothing had changed, and the emperor's decree was still there.

"After following the Prince Jin for so many years, I have at least understood him. Although he was courageous and decisive in battle, when he left the battlefield, he was kind to his subordinates. He had never taken a wife, or perhaps the Emperor had never married him. I don't know how Prince Jin would treat a woman, but based on my intuition, he should be a good man. "

From Yun Chong's words, it could be seen that he somewhat admired Shan Liancheng.

He looked at Yun Qixi with a complicated expression, and continued, "In the past, as a prince, His Highness was later conferred the title of Prince Jin, and for all these years, he had never begged the Emperor for anything. But this time, he was the one who told the emperor about you being in the Plague Village, and begged the emperor to send an imperial physician to visit you. I guess he has you in his heart. At least he would be a responsible and good man. "

Yun Chong's tone was very calm, but Yun Qixi saw a trace of sadness in his indifferent eyes. At the end, she was shocked.

He told Shan Liancheng to reject the marriage with the emperor, but he went to the emperor to ask for an imperial physician for her. If that was the case, the emperor would definitely misunderstand why Shan Liancheng cared about her, and think that his marriage proposal this time around was a wise decision.

However, after some thought, she quickly calmed down. She seemed to understand why Shan Liancheng was doing this. Rather than seeing Shan Ziyin threatening the citizens of the Eastern Willow Village and making them sacrifice themselves, it would be better to push the whole matter to the emperor, and give him a reason to send the imperial physician, so that he could take down the title of plague village in the Eastern Willow Village.

And she was merely a reason that Shan Liancheng passed to the Emperor.

Perhaps the other party simply threw out a fire, intending to burn everyone to death seeing that the plot could not be carried out.

The fifteenth of the eighth month was a month away, so if she could endure for another ten days or so, when the Miss Er was full, she could take the remaining half of the silver and slip away. At that time, no matter what finger marriage was, no matter what edict it was, it would all be none of her business.

After thinking through all of this, she lightly nodded her head, "I understand."

With regards to her reaction, Yun Chong was surprised for a moment. His eyes darkened, as though he wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not.

"Then rest well, I will have the doctor come and take a look for you."

"No need, I know my own body. Furthermore, you know that I am a doctor myself."

Yun Chong nodded, "Alright then."

Not long after Yun Chong left, Yun Fenglie also came to see her, and after asking his a few words, he left. Yun Qixi could clearly feel that Yun Fenglie was not as concerned about her as he was before, but she did not care about that.

She only had the back of her hand scalded. There was no big problem, it wasn't even on her face.

She was even more worried about Yun Qi and Xiao Yu, wondering how they were doing.

Therefore, she decided to make a trip to the residence to inquire about the matter.

Waiting until the sky turned dark, Yun Qixi opened his door and walked out. The wound on her leg had not completely healed. She couldn't climb the wall, she could only walk through the door. The moment she walked out of the courtyard, she heard a mocking voice sounding from not too far away.

"He clearly knew that he came from Plague Village, but he was only brought back because his brother was too kind. He was still walking around as if nothing had happened. He really didn't know his own limitations."

She saw not far away, under a wutong tree, Yun Lanyue was sitting leisurely by a stone table, with a plate of grapes on the table.

After she finished speaking, she used her free hand to place a grape into her mouth, and leisurely looked at Yun Qixi.

The Duke of Guo's residence was so large, yet it just so happened to be sitting in front of her courtyard. It was all for the sake of suppressing and mocking her when she came out. He really did put in a lot of effort!

Yun Qixi lifted her hand and tucked her hair behind her ear, then smiled and walked over step by step.

"Sister, we are a family after all, we are sisters. Even if I am infected with the plague, I believe sister will not despise me, right?"

Seeing her approach, Yun Lanyue immediately became cautious, and coldly snorted: Who's the same family as you? "Stop putting gold on your face."

Yun Qixi was not angry, and only smiled, "I know my own limitations, so how would I dare to form connections with the future Crown Princess. "However, aunty said today that we are sisters now, and that we are sister-in-law from now on. We will always be one family."

Me?" Yun Zuiyue looked at her with disdain, "Family? "Look at yourself, you're not going to look in a mirror.

Yun Qixi was thick-skinned enough to not be easily angered by hshe words and only laughed disapprovingly. Suddenly, she heard Yun Lanyue scream. He saw her raise her hand to cover her forehead in pain, and at the same time, angrily look at Yun Qixi. She was only standing not too far away, as if she hadn't moved at all. As a result, he held back his curses a bit, but didn't spew them out in the end like sh * t.

Although it was night, there was still moonlight, so when Yun Lanyue took her hand away, she could still see the green and red spot on her forehead.

"Elder sister, what happened?" Yun Qixi asked while holding back her laughter.

Yun Lanyue used her hand to cover her forehead and snorted disdainfully, "You don't care about me."

Yun Qixi laughed, laughing until she felt like she deserved a beating, "Elder sister, you misunderstood me, I'm not concerned, I'm just curious."

"You," Yun Lanyue gritted her teeth hatefully, and then, not knowing what kind of psychological development she had done for him, she suddenly laughed, "I heard that Prince Jin begged for mercy in front of the Emperor for your sake, I definitely wouldn't do that in the past. But since the marriage proposal, he already protected you like this.

Yun Qixi could listen to all sorts of rude words, but she couldn't stand it when others were swearing. In the modern world, this was how the famous Xiao San used to point at her and her mother's noses and scold them.

"Say it again." Yun Qixi's eyes suddenly turned cold.

This gaze made Yun Lanyue feel an inexplicable sense of guilt, but she continued to speak stubbornly, "I already said, what can you do to me? You and your mistress are both sluts who only know how to seduce men. "

Just as she finished speaking, Yun Qixi was about to slap her in the face, but before she could do so, she heard Yun Lanyue cry out again, quickly grabbing her head.

This time, Yun Qixi saw clearly that the stone that fell down from Yun Lanyue's head was a rock.

Yun Lanyue looked around in fear, her voice trembling as she asked, "Who, who is behind this?"

Before she could finish her sentence, several rocks flew out and struck her leg. She bent her knees and almost fell to her knees.

She who was originally in full fury, now seemed to not dare to speak anymore. Clutching her head, she glared at Yun Qixi and ran off.

Looking at her fleeing figure, Yun Qixi curiously looked around.

However, it was very quiet. There was no one around.

After this incident, she gave up on the idea of leaving. She thought that she should find a way out tomorrow morning.

He walked back to the courtyard and arrived at the door. Just as he was about to open it, a figure jumped in front of her and put a hand on her shoulder to cover her mouth. The other hand pushed open the door and brought her inside.

Seeing that she didn't have any intention to struggle or shout out, the other party released her.

There were no lights in the room, so Yun Qixi could clearly see his face using the moonlight shining through the window paper.

"Why are you here?"
