Spring and Autumn GL

36. Rescue

After leaving Zheng Dan's North Palace, Xi Shi didn't go back, but went directly to Bopi's mansion, Fan Li was indeed there, seeing Xi Shi coming to look for him, he was overjoyed and rushed out to meet him.

Xi Shi raised her hand and gave Fan Li a slap in the face, Fan Li flinched and looked at her suspiciously.

Trembling with anger, she asked fiercely:

"Murder and blame, Bo Pi can't think of this idea, it must be you! How are you! You are smart!"

Fan Li sneered: "It's not all caused by you, what would you do without me?"

Xi Shi said: "I'd rather suffer the crime than hurt the innocent! I hoped you would think of a way to get the best of both worlds, but you can't think of it?"

Fan Li said: "Those who achieve great things don't care about small things. The more complicated the method, the more loopholes it will be. It's better to think of something simple. Besides...you don't hurt the innocent? Isn't Wu Zixu innocent?"

Xi Shi spat and said to Fan Li: "If it wasn't for my mother's revenge, I would never have listened to someone like you! From now on, you should stop pressing me with Yue's affairs. The country and the world have nothing to do with me from now on. nor!"

Fan Li said angrily, "I thought you would discipline Ah Zhi well, but who knew you would become as unambitious as her, what a pity."

When Xi Shi heard Fan Li say that Ah Zhi was wrong, she was furious, but suddenly thought of something, put on a calm face, and asked softly:

"Doctor Fan, me, Wujia, and Azhi, the three of us, which one do you like exactly?"

Seeing that Xi Shi suddenly softened, Fan Li sighed softly:

"Actually, you already know what I want. From the beginning to the end, I only liked you, and the other two were just playing around..."

He thought that Xi Shi would respond with a smile of understanding, but he didn't expect her to slap her again. Fan Li couldn't dodge in time, and received a solid slap.How could he have suffered such grievances, and he immediately became angry and shouted:

"Don't be ignorant! If I didn't protect you wholeheartedly, you would have died many times!"

Xi Shi snorted coldly: "Are you protecting me or yourself? Or, is it for Yue Guo?"

Fan Li said: "It's not only for you, but also for the country of Yue. As for you, I dare not say that you have no selfishness at all."

"Okay, I don't care about your despicable means for the time being. It's just that you stop being hypocritical to the homeless sister, otherwise I don't know what I will do."

Xi Shi left without saying a word.Fan Li licked his lips and spat hard.

At night, Xi Shi took off Azhi's mask herself, rubbed the somewhat dull skin on her face, and said quietly:

"I need your help again..."

Ah Zhi giggled: "What are you talking about? Why don't I help you with your business?"

Xi Shi thought for a while: "This time, I want you to save someone. If you can save someone, then save it... If you can't, forget it."

Ah Zhi patted his chest: "Don't worry, isn't it just to save a person? After all, is it robbing a prison or a court?"

Xishi couldn't help laughing: "How could I ask you to do such a dangerous thing... Tomorrow the king will execute a court lady, most of whom will sink her body alive in the Yangtze River. You can find a chance to go down and rescue her, can you do it?"

Ah Zhi looked embarrassed: "I... I'm afraid of water... I can't swim..."

Xishi frowned, thinking that this was not good, she had calculated everything, but she didn't expect that A Zhi didn't know the nature of water - but she had already promised Zheng Dan that Xing'er would be fine, how could this be a good thing?

Seeing that Xi Shi was distressed, Ah Zhi rubbed his hands involuntarily, feeling very nervous.After a long time, she said quietly:

"Is that person... important? Would you be sad if he died?"

Xi Shi shook her head lightly: "Maybe it's not that sad, it's just a little uneasy... You don't have to worry about it, just sleep peacefully."

A Zhi sighed, she didn't want Xi Shi to be sad, even if she was uneasy, she wouldn't allow it.Looking at Xi Shi's serious face, she didn't say anything, but she had a plan in her heart.

At noon of the second day, Xing'er was dragged out of the palace by a group of soldiers, she just yelled and struggled desperately.The sergeant was overwhelmed by the call, and simply gagged her, and carried her all the way to the market to show the public.Xi Shi and Zheng Dan have been mixed in the crowd for a long time, Zheng Dan quietly asked Xi Shi:

"Yi Guang, how did you arrange it?"

Xi Shi bit her lip and said perfunctorily: "She will go into the water in a while, someone will save her, don't worry."

In fact, the person she said was herself.Xi Shi has been playing in the river since she was a child, the water quality is very good, saving someone is not a problem, but she has no choice but to show her face at this moment—to let people see Nishigong Niangniang jumping into the water to save a court lady who is scolded by everyone , Fu Chai couldn't be mad?So today she was dressed very plainly, with no makeup at all. Although she still couldn't conceal her beautiful appearance, no one would have thought that she was Empress Nishinomiya.

The sergeant read out Xing'er's crimes in the crowd, and what she said was useless.Seeing that it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon, he led her to the stage, put her in a sack without any explanation, put a few boulders in it, and tied the mouth of the bag tightly.

Zheng Dan subconsciously recognized the face, but suddenly found that Xi Shi was gone. She looked around anxiously, but she didn't even see the corner of her clothes.But Xi Shi has already moved towards the river quietly, waiting for the soldiers to issue an order before jumping down.

At this time, there was a sound of a gong, and the sergeant dragged and lifted the sack, and threw the sack into the river.There was only a thud, and a big splash of water splashed, and the bag sank like a ship's anchor.All the people clapped their hands and chatted with the sergeants, no one cared about the corpse in the river - such a corpse that was drowned alive, no matter how good your water skills are, how can you survive?

Seeing that the time had come, Xi Shi was about to jump into the water, when suddenly she saw a black shadow in the crowd dive into the water with a whoosh.Her scalp exploded, and her size was in chaos. With this figure and attire, which one is it if it's not Azhi?He obviously didn't bring her out, where did she come from!And doesn't she know how to water?Jumping to the heart of the river like this is tantamount to committing suicide!

Before she finished thinking about it, Xi Shi ran wildly, running all the way along the bank of the river, looking around to see where A Zhi jumped to, so she could go down to save others.

As soon as Ah Zhi entered the water, he shivered. Although he still had plenty of breath, he only felt that he was going to die. He desperately held back the desire to breathe and went downstream desperately.The more I went down, the more my head felt swollen, and my ears and eyes hurt.She resisted her fear and reached out to grab the bag, but because the bag was too heavy, she was dragged deeper.Ah Zhi desperately refused to let go, while pulling out the dagger, and cut the bag.Xing'er was still awake, seeing someone coming to save her, her dim eyes suddenly became bright again.Ah Zhi had just cut the hemp rope on Xing'er's hands and feet, and suddenly felt that he couldn't hold it anymore, spit out a string of bubbles, opened his mouth involuntarily to breathe, and choked a big mouthful of water in.

Fortunately, Xing'er is very good at water, seeing A Zhi like this, she hurriedly took her to swim to the shore.Xishi on the shore suddenly saw movement in the water, and immediately jumped up without hesitation, dragging and dragging Azhi with Xing'er.

But Azhi closed her eyes tightly and remained motionless. Xi Shi was extremely anxious, ignoring Xing'er who was panting, and rushed to rescue Azhi.Ah Zhi's stomach was already distended, and it could be seen that he drank a lot of river water. Xi Shi pinched and pressed, water gushed out of Ah Zhi's mouth and nose, but he still had no breath.

Xi Shi was sweating profusely, but was suddenly pulled away by someone, she turned her head and saw that it was Xing'er.Xing'er nodded like Xi Shi, then leaned on A Zhi's body, pinched her nose and blew into A Zhi's mouth.

"What are you doing!" Xi Shi was shocked when she saw this.

Xing'er just waved her hands behind her, but she didn't intend to stop.Seeing that Xing'er was behaving strangely, Xi Shi looked anxious, as if she was really saving A Zhi, so she couldn't disturb her, so she could only frown.Xing'er exhaled from time to time, and sometimes put her hands on A Zhi's chest and pressed it one by one. Repeated four or five times, A Zhi suddenly coughed heavily, spraying water from her mouth and nose.Immediately, she suddenly opened her mouth, took a deep breath, and then coughed violently.

Seeing this, Xi Shi felt relieved, but her nose was sore, she couldn't hold back for a moment, and began to cry.Xing'er turned around, bowed to Xi Shi, moved her lips, and seemed to call her "Niang Niang" again.

"Thank you...I..." Xishi couldn't say anything, Xing'er was in trouble because of her, but now she saved A Zhi...

Xing'er shook her head, pointed at A Zhi, then nodded with a smile, indicating that she was fine.

Xi Shi took out a waist pendant and handed it to Xing'er, saying: "Go on your own, stay away from Wu and Yue. If you exchange some money with this jewelry, it will keep you safe for three years. The rest is up to you."

Xing'er took off the jewelry, knelt down, respectfully kowtowed to Xi Shi, then bowed to the unconscious Azhi, stretched out her hand and drew the word "Thank you" on the ground, and hurriedly fled this place of right and wrong .

A Zhi woke up slowly, only feeling that she was lying in a soft embrace, and in the blink of an eye, Xi Shi was looking at her with anger and pity.

"Why are you acting so nonsense? If it weren't for some martial arts foundation, I'm afraid it would have been... long ago..."

A Zhi said: "I'm not, cough, I'm okay. I could hold on for a while, but I'm afraid, and when I'm afraid, I get confused... Did you save me?"

Xi Shi shook her head: "Xing'er saved you. If it wasn't for her good water skills, neither of you would have survived! You are really... really messed up! I clearly told you not to pay attention to this matter, but you ..."

"Didn't you say that if that man died, would you feel uneasy? I can't make you uneasy. "

Xi Shi said: "If she dies, I will feel uneasy, and if you die, I'm afraid I will be distraught! Why don't you think about it, what is more important in my heart, you or her?"

Ah Zhi smiled: "So I'm so important to you!"

"Fool!" Xi Shi angrily said, "If you and I are fine, that's better than anything else. No matter how many people in the world get hurt or die, they can have nothing to do with me, but you are different, understand?"

Azhi blinked his eyes half-understood, and said:

"Seems to understand. Just like I can kill anyone, but I will never hurt you, it's the same."

Xi Shi nodded: "Although you don't understand many things, you can understand a few things. You must be really smart. I originally thought that you should maintain a simple state of mind, but when you are in the deep palace, you will inevitably come into contact with many right and wrong. It seems that I need to tell you something."

Ah Zhi suddenly pursed his lips: "You, Fan Li, and Zheng Dan are in the same group. Zheng Dan likes Fan Li, but Fan Li likes you. Bo Pi is from Wu, but he seems to be very afraid of you. Fu Chai doesn't know anything. , you cheated him together. If Wu Zixu wasn’t fooled, you killed him together. I don’t understand the reason, but I can tell at a glance who is good to whom.”

Xi Shi was greatly surprised, and thought that people should not be judged by their appearances. This A Zhi seemed to be ignorant, but in fact he understood better than anyone else.Even though she couldn't figure out the reason, she could see the relationship between all parties from various clues, she was really very keen!

"Then tell me, I have cheated so many people, am I considered a bad person?"

Azhi said: "You are a good person and a bad person, it has nothing to do with me, you are my Yiguang."

Xishi hugged Azhi tightly, with mixed emotions in her heart, and suddenly understood why she was so attached to Azhi.In Ah Zhi's eyes, she is neither the princess of Wu, nor the secret work of Yue, and she has no great cause of restoration of the country, no entanglement of grievances - she is just herself, just Shi Yiguang.

This lawless and reckless woman gave her a clean and peaceful world.
