Fan Beiran seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes darkened slightly. After taking a sip of wine, he continued with emotion, “On the battlefield, many injured people actually die like this.”
In the past two years, Fan Beiran spent most of his time in Beijing. He was a flag bearer and it was considered quite a decent idle job.
But he had also been to the battlefield several times before, accompanying the army on expeditions thousands of miles away. In war, he had witnessed comrades lose their lives on the battlefield. He had also seen comrades with severe wounds, deep festering wounds that wouldn’t heal, high fevers, and unconsciousness. Some managed to survive and regain consciousness, even if they were left disabled, but many others simply passed away in a state of high fever and unconsciousness…
Fan Beiran swirled the wine glass in his hand and looked up at Gu Yuan. His clear voice was a little hoarse. “I remember… that after Xu Daqian was injured by the arrow, his fever didn’t subside?”
At the mention of an old friend, Gu Yuan pursed his thin lips into a straight line and nodded. A trace of sadness slowly surfaced in his eyes.
That was two years ago.
At that time, he was only 15 years old. He and Fan Beiran had followed the 10,000 imperial guards of the West Mountain Camp to the northwest to suppress the horse bandits.
Xu Daqian was six years older than Gu Yuan. At that time, he was 21 years old. Seeing that Gu Yuan and Fan Beiran were young, he took good care of them in the camp.
That time, Xu Daqian’s shoulder blade was pierced by an arrow from a horse bandit. That arrow had a barb on it. In order to pull out the arrow, they had no choice but to cut his flesh and pull it out.
Initially, they thought that the arrow wasn’t poisonous and that Xu Daqian was fine. Unexpectedly, he had a high fever that night and was in a coma. In just three days, a young man in his prime died.
Thinking of their old friend, the two of them were a little depressed. They silently drank two cups of wine.
Fan Mushuang wanted to comfort her second brother, so she picked up the pot of wine and refilled Fan Beiran’s cup.
My sister is so obedient and treats me so well! Fan Beiran liked it very much and asked, “Why are you asking this? Are you planning to study medicine again?”
He curled his lips teasingly, as if to say: Don’t just be obsessed with it for three days only.
Fan Mushuang almost glared at her second brother. She forced a straight face and said obediently, “I just thought of Marquis Ji’an.”
“Marquis Ji’an?” Fan Beiran raised his eyebrows inexplicably.
What did this have to do with Marquis Ji’an?
Fan Mushuang said, “When I was taking a nap in Mom’s cabinet yesterday, I vaguely heard Dad and Mom say that Marquis Ji’an stabbed himself and was almost burned to death.”
She dipped her index finger into the wine again and was about to continue practicing the Disease Removal Talisman when she heard Gu Yanfei suddenly ask, “Why did Marquis Ji’an stab himself?”
Fan Mushuang perked up and stopped drawing talismans. She said vividly,
“It was just a few days ago.”
“Marquis Ji’an went to Duke Wei’s Mansion to apologize and bring Madam Ji’an and her daughter back. He said that he would definitely deal with his mistress. He only hoped that Madam Ji’an would be willing to forgive him and let bygones be bygones.”
“However, the door of Duke Wei’s Mansion has been tightly shut, and Madam Ji’an completely ignored him.”
Gu Yanfei poured herself a cup of wine and raised it to her lips. The unique wine fragrance with the fragrance of bamboo leaves entered her nose, and the corners of her lips curled up imperceptibly.
Wei Wan’s matter involved the private matters of Duke Wei’s Mansion. Gu Yanfei didn’t even elaborate on it with Gu Yuan.
Outside, they only thought that Marquis Ji’an had colluded with bandits and even taken in a beautiful woman given to him by the bandits as his mistress. Madam Ji’an was so furious at his disloyalty and injustice that she vehemently demanded a divorce from her husband, severing their marital ties.
Later on, Chu Yi told her that ever since Imperial Duke Wei left the capital to suppress bandits, Marquis Ji’an had been fearless from the beginning, but gradually became anxious. The few times he entered the palace to meet the Emperor, he was rejected.
In just a few days, Marquis Ji’an’s attitude had changed drastically. He was like a different person.
The older the ginger, the wiser. Imperial Duke Wei was really an old ginger! Gu Yanfei sighed faintly in her heart.
Fan Mushuang continued, “Marquis Ji’an knelt at the entrance of Duke Wei’s Mansion for a long time. Later, he stabbed himself in the abdomen with a dagger and said that he wanted to perform a laparotomy to prove his sincerity. It shocked the onlookers beside him. They also helped him knock on the door of the Duke Wei’s Mansion, but the Duke Wei’s Mansion still didn’t open.”
“My mother said that Marquis Ji’an is just trying to trick me and has ill intentions.” Fan Mushuang frowned again. Her cheeks were puffed up like a glutinous rice ball.
Speaking of Marquis Ji’an, she thought of the person surnamed Xue. Marquis Ji’an had colluded with bandits and raised a mistress. Such a man was the same kind of person as the person surnamed Xue. If she hadn’t resolved the Love Gu, her outcome would probably have been extremely miserable..
