Chapter 200
After applying medicine to the wound under Chen Wei's threat, Ji Xinjun bandaged him again.Then he took out a small porcelain bottle from the medicine chest, and filled it with three balls.The balls are off-white and exude a strong herbal aroma.She mixed the pills with water, and the pills would melt when they touched the water, and melted into the water and turned into a paste. After feeding Chen Wei spoonful by spoonful, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She gently wiped the sweat from her forehead, and quietly looked at the unconscious man lying in front of her. The scars all over her body, new and old, were shocking. She could hardly imagine how much this young guy had gone through. suffering.

She didn't know why, she, who had always hated war, saw the scars he had left all over her body, but she didn't feel the slightest ugly or disgusting.When she went south to Nanman, she passed through Wu and saved many patients.In Wudi, tattooing has been popular since the pre-Qin period. She has seen many men like to tattoo various patterns on their bodies in order to strengthen their courage or show off their so-called majesty.She always sneered, but when she looked at the man covered in scars in front of her, a sentence suddenly popped up in her mind: Scars are the best tattoos on a man.

"With great ability comes great responsibility..." Ji Xinjun remembered what this man said to herself again. She felt that this man was too exaggerated at the beginning, but she gently touched the scars left by those old wounds. He muttered: "No matter how powerful you are, you can't fight with your life..."

The sound of armor beating when soldiers ran was heard from a distance outside, and occasionally someone shouted loudly, but the room in the yard was quiet.

Ji Xinjun looked at Chen Wei silently, thinking in his heart that once someone found out, the follow-up incident should be handled in this way.Although she has a deep friendship with Cao Cao, she doesn't think that Cao Cao's appreciation of her and the association of interests can make Cao Cao forgive her behavior.She knew that even if Cao Cao would not embarrass herself, the business would be ruined.Once this business runs aground, the expansion of the family business to the customs will definitely be hindered. Thinking of facing pressure from the cousins ​​and uncles in the family in the future, Ji Xinjun's mood becomes more complicated.

The only thing that made her feel a little relieved was that the man in front of her didn't know what kind of physique he was recovering from his injuries at an astonishingly fast speed.After half a day, the wound that was still oozing with blood tended to heal.

The only thing that is worrying is that, perhaps because of soaking in the water for too long, Chen Wei's body temperature is too high, and he even developed a high fever.

The girl Xiao Su brought the well water, and then ran to the yard to continue watching.

Ji Xinjun wetted the water with a handkerchief, and rubbed Chen Wei's forehead repeatedly.But soon she found that Chen Wei's whole body was red and hot.

For this abnormality, Ji Xinjun took Chen Wei's pulse but could not find any reason. She didn't know that the yin and yang energy in Chen Wei's body seemed to be out of control and flowing all over his body.

Ji Xinjun kept wiping Chen Wei's scorching body with cold water, changing the water from basin to basin, and splashing the water on the ground created hot mist in the cold air.

……

Chen Wei, who was in a coma, frowned and groaned in pain. The blood vessels in his arm bulged, tearing the bedding, and finally grabbed Ji Xinjun's arm.

Ji Xinjun only felt severe pain coming from her wrist, she clenched her teeth tightly, her expression was calm, but her hair was stained with sweat and clinging to the edges of her cheeks.

"Xiaobai...don't...I will save you..."

Ji Xinjun frowned, it was obvious that the man in front of him was having some kind of nightmare.

I don't know how long it took, the green blood vessels in Chen Wei's arm finally subsided slowly, and the hand that was tightly holding Ji Xinjun's wrist was also loosened, but there was a bruise left on Ji Xinjun's snowy wrist.

Just when she was about to take out the water from the basin, Xiao Su appeared by the door with a flustered face. The face that originally had two cute dimples when she smiled was now pale and her voice trembled. : "Little...sister...someone is coming..."

Ji Xinjun's hand holding the water basin trembled slightly, she poured out the water gently, put the water basin in the corner, gave Xiaosu a few words calmly, then straightened her wrinkled clothes, everything was the same After that, he walked steadily to the door.

"Open the door." Ji Xinjun said softly.

Xiao Su glanced at Miss, took a deep breath to calm herself down, unloaded the crossbar, and opened the courtyard door.

Outside the door, Sima Yi lowered his head slightly, with his hands behind his back, and the folding fan was twirling in his hands.

The door creaked open, and Sima Yi raised his head slightly. She was a young girl. When he saw Ji Xinjun standing behind him, a smile appeared on his expressionless face, and he saluted, "Miss Ji, excuse me."

Ji Xinjun glanced at Sima Yi indifferently, and asked slightly after returning the salute, "Did Cao Gong look for me?"

"It seems that the second lady doesn't know something. The assassin broke into the mansion last night. Earlier, soldiers found the assassin's bloody clothes in Xicheng District. It is confirmed that the assassin is still in the city..." When Sima Yi spoke, his sharp eyes swept towards Ji Xinjun's back "Cao Gong was afraid that the assassin might hide in the mansion, so he specially sent me to come and see the second lady..."

"Since there is an assassin, why did Mr. Sima come to me instead of looking for the assassin?" Ji Xinjun looked at Sima Yi calmly.

"I'm afraid that the assassin might hide in the second lady's yard..."

"Hehe, if you didn't bother me, the yard has been very quiet."

"For the safety of Second Miss, I still hope you can let me go in and have a look..."

"Thank you Mr. Sima for your kindness, please go back." Ji Xinjun's expression was calm, but his tone gave off a strong feeling.

Sima Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, the folding fan that was spinning behind his back was tightly clenched, and his tone sank slightly, "I am only acting on the order of Mr. Cao, I hope the second lady can understand my difficulties..."

"In that case, let Mr. Cao come in person. I happen to have something to talk to him about." Ji Xinjun didn't budge at all. Compared with Sima Yi, her relatively delicate body didn't move at all.

The two looked at each other, and Sima Yi's eyes flashed with anger.

After a long time, Sima Yi cupped his hands, "Excuse me."

"No delivery."

A look of joy appeared on Xiao Su's face, she stuck out her tongue at Sima Yi, and stretched out her hand to close the courtyard door.

"Wait..." Sima Yi's hand suddenly grabbed the door panel, and Xiao Su's expression changed instantly.

Ji Xinjun looked at Sima Yi calmly.

"I went to Chen Keqing's house just now, but I asked the servant girl. Chen Keqing didn't come back last night. I wonder if Second Miss Ji knows where he is?" Sima Yi looked at Ji Xinjun coldly with his long and narrow eyes.

A slight smile appeared on the corner of Ji Xinjun's mouth, and said softly: "Last night, I talked with Chen Keqing by candlelight, and it's already the third watch, so I let him stay here."

"I just want to say a few words to Chen Keqing, I wonder if Miss Ji Er can call him out?" Sima Yi's mouth curled into a cold smile.

"Of course, Xiao Su, see if Chen Keqing is awake." Ji Xinjun said.

"Yes, miss." Xiao Su turned and left.

After a while, Xiao Su turned back, pouted at Sima Yi, and said, "Miss, Keqing Chen rested too late last night and hasn't woken up yet."

Ji Xinjun showed helplessness on his face, and said with a smile: "Then Mr. Sima, why don't you come again next time?"

Sima Yi's eyes sparkled, he cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem."

The gap in the door was getting smaller and smaller, and Ji Xinjun secretly breathed a sigh of relief seeing that pair of eyes that were getting colder and colder were finally blocked from the door.

Xiaosu listened for a while with his ear pressed against the door panel, and then happily said: "They're gone.

Ji Xinjun returned to the room, but there was another hasty knock on the courtyard door behind her.

Xiao Su wrinkled her small nose, opened the door and cursed: "Hey, are you finished..."

But there was no one at all outside the door.

Seeing this, Ji Xinjun's face suddenly changed slightly, she turned around and ran into the house, only to hear the sound of a window being broken in the room, and a white shadow broke in.
