The plot of Quick Wear is always wrong

2

The person who was rescued was in a miserable state. There was not a single healthy part on his body. His body was covered with arrow wounds, especially his shoulder. There was a short arrow stuck between the torn flesh. The arrow handle should have been broken off by himself, leaving only an iron arrowhead in the middle. The blood there had dried up, and the clothes stained with it had changed color.

Qi Xiu didn't dare to touch him. He just asked the servant to carry the man in and put him aside. The man looked young, and should be the same age as Huai'an. However, he couldn't understand who could have offended such a young man? He would be killed like this...

"…Excuse me. Today is the autumn hunting day in the hunting grounds. An assassin broke into the enclosure with the intention of assassinating you. We are now ordered to investigate. I hope you will forgive me."

The carriage slowed down when it reached the city gate. When Qi Xiu heard the sound, he lifted a corner of the curtain and looked over. Seeing that the carriage in front was stopped, he pulled his cloak over it.

The wheels turned forward, and the soldiers were blocking the city gate. The scene frightened the servant so much that he trembled and walked forward with trembling hands. He felt a little guilty, so he stuttered when he spoke.

"I, we...just came back from Qi'an Temple."

The soldiers looked him over.

"It's just a routine investigation. Please cooperate with us."

"This, this, this, sir, this is not very convenient..."

"Inconvenient? What's inconvenient about that? Could it be that you guys are hiding someone in the carriage that shouldn't be hidden?!"

"Oh, sir, please don't say that. We are a clean family, and our master is an official in the court. You can't slander and wrongly accuse us..."

There was some noise outside, so loud that the person under the cloak moved. Qi Xiu held down the dirty hand that tried to reach out and slapped him back.

"What's wrong?"

He coughed twice, and leaned crookedly on the carriage as if he was not feeling well.

"...Sir, I'm going to reply to your question. I don't know what happened. The soldiers guarding the city insisted on stopping us, saying that they wanted to see inside the carriage..."

"Ahem..., if that's the case, then open the curtain a little... ahem... ahem..."

He coughed violently, and the servant who was coughing also felt uneasy, and his attitude immediately became more resolute.

"No, sir. It's cold now. You are not in good health and cannot stand the wind. In the past, you would have to stay in bed for ten days or half a month if you were blown by the cold wind at night in the hot summer. What's more, it's autumn now..."

"It's okay..."

As he spoke, he was so weak that his breath was hanging by a thread. The soldier hesitated for a moment, said "excuse me" and pulled open the curtain of the carriage.

What he saw was a pale young man, with his hand covering his mouth, leaning against the back of the carriage. When he saw him lift the curtain, he glanced over. The look in his eyes was so indifferent that it made him feel unreal.

He is a very good-looking person.

The soldier took a quick glance, his eyes fell on his legs covered with a cloak, and when he sniffed carefully, he could smell a faint smell of blood. He was a little suspicious, but before he could open his mouth, he saw the young man coughing again.
