But today, Shen Qiangwei didn't leave anyone in the house. She just wanted to relax by herself.
Shen Qiangwei had just soaked in the tub. She thought that all the fatigue and worries of today would be gone, but she suddenly remembered the voice of the guard outside the door.
"There's an assassin!"
Shen Qiangwei couldn't help but frown. What she did was already so remote. Was it because the assassin couldn't be caught here
Perhaps it was because she had experienced too many things. When Shen Qiangwei heard that there were guards outside checking for assassins, she was not so panicked. She just stretched out her hand to pick up the clothes next to her.
It seems that even with such a small amount of leisure time, there is no way to concentrate on everything.
A gust of wind blew by, and before Shen Qiangwei could react, she saw a black shadow passing in front of her eyes. When she was about to scream, the person behind her covered her mouth.
"Don't make a sound, it's me."
Gusu Liang had lowered his voice as much as possible. Although it was a bit abrupt, there was nothing he could do about it.
After Gu Suliang said this, he let go of his hand and leaned to the side, holding his chest and breathing heavily.
The lights in the room were still very bright. Even though Gu Suliang in front of her was wearing black clothes, Shen Qiangwei quickly discovered the fact that the person in front of her was injured.
"You are hurt?"
Gu Suliang nodded. The wound was on his back. He felt a little ridiculous. It was obviously because he noticed the sound around him and he randomly set it with an arrow, but he actually hurt himself.
"Do you have any medicine to stop the bleeding? I just pulled out the arrow, and now the bleeding won't stop. If this continues, they will find me soon."
Gusu Liang was already enduring severe pain when he said these words. He didn't know exactly where the arrow was missing. He felt even more pain after pulling it out. He didn't know if he could still run out of the palace.
He had to leave immediately after the bleeding stopped, otherwise Shen Qiangwei would be hurt.
Seeing him like this, Shen Qiangwei seemed to have no wrong thoughts about herself. She turned her back to put on her clothes and helped Guo Shuliang into her room.
"No, if you don't have any medicine, I will leave first. They are looking for me everywhere, and they will probably come to your place to search soon."
Only carelessness would allow these idiot guards to take advantage of him. If he could escape on his own, he would never want to implicate the people in front of him.
Shen Qiangwei was very determined, "If you don't follow me in now, I will tell the people outside right away that the assassin is here."
Gusu Liang weighed it and realized that he had no strength at all at this time. If Shen Qiangwei really shouted like that, he would only die.
"No, at least I have saved you before."
"Then don't talk so much nonsense. Gu Qiang left two bottles of medicine here before. I don't recognize them. You should go and see if they are of any use."
Shen Qiangwei still remembered that Gu Suliang didn't trust her during the day, so she emphasized that these two bottles of medicine were left by Gu Qiang last time, and hoped that he would not continue to doubt her.
Gu Qiang was indeed foresight. He was originally afraid that Shen Qiangwei would bump into her or use some medicine, so when he came to see her last time, he had left a few bottles of medicine for emergency use.
Gusu Liang found the golden sore medicine inside and tore open his clothes. After all, the wound was on the back. Of course, he couldn't reach it. He could only hope that the people around him would help him.
"Then please be patient. I have never done anything like this before, so I won't do it lightly."
Although she said this, Shen Qiangwei still left some room for it when she started. Maybe it was because the pain was too much, and Gusu Liang didn't feel anything.
Unexpectedly, the guards outside the door came here just after the medicine was applied.
"Sir, we have searched the surrounding area and found no trace of the assassin. Are we..."
Everyone knows that although this palace is remote, the emperor's concubines live in it. If they are offended, they don't have so many heads to chop off.
But they couldn't let the injured assassin run around like this. They had already searched all around, and they couldn't let this place go.
Shen Qiang felt that her eyebrows were twitching twice. It seemed that she had been feeling that something was going to happen today. It was indeed true. This trouble was coming one after another.
"There is no way to narrow down the area by following the blood stains on the ground. Sir, do we want to go in?"
"Get in!"
The guard at the door stopped him symbolically, but in the final analysis, he still had to go inside to inform him first. With such a big commotion this night, Shen Qiangwei must have woken up long ago.
Gusu Liang panicked when he heard that people outside were about to come in. The whole room was filled with the bloody smell of the wound he had just treated. Anyone with some experience could feel it. If he came in at this time, wouldn't it be possible? Aren't you going to reveal your secrets
It would be fine if he was really caught for this matter, but he was still caught in Shen Qiangwei's palace. This would inevitably make people think that there was something between him and Shen Qiangwei, and Shen Zhongbai had even more reasons. The crime can be punished.
Gusu Liang touched the file in his arms. Team Shen Zhongbai originally meant no harm, but who would have thought that it would be so difficult to find a file from previous years.
"They will come in soon. I will go out and lure them away. This account book will be left here for you. You must..."
Gusu Liang was originally going to hand over all the useful things he had to Shen Qiangwei, but Shen Qiangwei stopped him first.
"You don't want to go out like this, do you? Do you want to die?"
Gu Suliang thought for a moment after hearing Shen Qiang's words, and nodded, "They are coming in soon. In order to get rid of you, I will go out now."
Even if they didn't dare to mess around with things after coming in, they could still smell the smell of blood in the room, but Shen Qiangwei still couldn't explain it.
Shen Qiangwei didn't know why the person in front of her was being chased by these guards, but Gusu Liang was better than herself, so she couldn't just push him out to die.
After bleeding so much, these thoughts would soon catch him following the blood stains, but Shen Qiangwei still stopped him.
"You don't have to think so much, let me handle the rest."
"But I don't want to hurt you."
Shen Qiangwei choked back all her words about wanting to repay her kindness. She was more or less touched by the words of the man in front of her. After so many years, this is one of the few men who has thought about herself. Compared to Shen Zhongbai, Shen Qiangwei hopes that the person she knows is Gusu Liang.
"It's okay. I am also a noble concubine after all. They don't dare to embarrass me about these things."
What is more difficult to deal with now is the smell in this house.
"But… "
"You stay in this room. You are not allowed to go out until I come back."
Before the guard could approach, Shen Qiangwei picked up the cup next to her, slammed it on the table, and exclaimed.
The guards outside the door were frightened when they heard the sound inside the room, and they quickened their pace and rushed to the door of the room. However, the maid outside just now said that the imperial concubine was taking a bath now, and they did not dare to rush in just like that.
"Your Majesty, what happened?"
The people inside the room didn't speak. When the people outside the door were about to rush in, Shen Qiangwei suddenly opened the door.
"Why are so many people gathered here? What's wrong with you?"
She asked the person in front of her, but the person in front of her could already smell the smell of blood in the room.
"My Lady, we are tracking down an assassin. He has been seriously injured and there has been no trace since we got here. Did something happen to you just now? Did you meet the assassin?"
Shen Qiangwei opened her palms to the person in front of her, "It's nothing. I just wanted to have a good sleep after taking a bath. Suddenly I heard a noisy sound outside. I was startled, so I broke the cup. I didn't expect the wound. It's so deep."
Shen Qiangwei opened her palms to the person in front of her, and she couldn't help but take a breath at this time.
The light inside was too dim just now, and she didn't know that a broken piece of porcelain would make a cut so deep that the bone could be seen. At this time, she felt a little scared when she saw it.
"Dian Cui, hurry up and find the imperial doctor to help me bandage the wound. I was frightened just now when I lit the lamp and saw the wound."
There was an explanation for where the smell of blood in the room came from, but the guard still felt that something was wrong and wanted to take a look inside.
On the contrary, it aroused Shen Qiangwei's dissatisfaction, "My lords, you have traced the assassin to me. It is obvious that you did not do your job well. Do you still suspect that I have an assassin hidden here?"
The guards were pretending to be brave and dared to come to this place to disturb. Now their movements made the imperial concubine scratch her palm. How could they have such courage and dare to continue to disturb here? They quickly led the little palace maid to go to the Imperial Hospital to search. The imperial doctor didn't say a word.
"I don't dare, but this assassin is indeed coming in this direction. Can you please make it easier for us to go in and check it out? This can be regarded as our protection."
Shen Qiangwei, who had the door half-closed, simply opened the door. She had just finished taking a shower, so she just put her clothes on her body casually. Her hair was still stained with water. Where could these guards be seen? After experiencing such a scene, everyone was stunned for a moment.
It seemed that the palace maid outside was indeed not lying. The imperial concubine was indeed taking a bath just now.
"There's only so much space in here. You can see everything from the outside. Why do you need to go in and search it?"
Indeed, compared to other concubines, Shen Qiangwei's residence is indeed very simple. Even if she stands at the door, she can clearly see the situation inside.
