Chapter 231 Defend the City and All Is Well

That night, Nan Qi remained unconscious. The military doctor clearly stated that if Nan Yi didn't wake up by dawn, he probably wouldn't wake up forever. Nan Yi and the others sat around Nan Yi's bedside, tears welling in their eyes.

"Brother, Seventh Brother won't just leave like this, will he?" Nan Liu asked sadly. Nan Yi slowly shook his head: "No, Master will definitely find a way to save him."

At this moment, Wen Yuxia crushed a millet seed into powder, divided it evenly into four portions, and carefully placed them into the four empty bowls in front of her.

Nangong Wenrui, holding a kettle, poured some warm water into a bowl: "Someone come here." Two guards responded and entered.

Nangong Wenrui pointed to the bowl and hemostatic powder on the table and said coldly, "Put the hemostatic powder in the bowl, shake it well, and feed it to Nan Qi and the others. Be careful not to spill it."

The guard nodded in agreement, took the hemostatic powder and the bowl, and quickly left.

Wen Yuxia calmly said, "They should wake up after taking the medicine." Nangong Wenrui's voice was devoid of any emotion: "We've done everything we could. The rest is up to them."

Nan Yi pinched Nan Qi's nose, while Nan Er carefully poured water into Nan Qi's mouth, urging him to drink for a while and then resting for a while, making sure that Nan Qi swallowed every last drop.

The three guards lying nearby, with the help of their companions, drank warm water mixed with millet seeds and hemostatic medicine. A while later, the military camp brought Nan Yi and the others some healing medicine, which they then forced down the throats of the four unconscious men.

"Second brother, you all go to sleep. I'll stay and watch over seventh brother," Nan Yi said sadly. Nan Er and the others shook their heads in refusal.

Nan Er voiced what the brothers were thinking: "It's still uncertain whether Seventh Brother will wake up. I want to spend more time with him."

Nan Liu and Nan Qi were about the same age and had a very good relationship. He stared at Nan Qi's face without moving for two hours.

Suddenly, he exclaimed in surprise, "His eyelids twitched! Seventh Brother's eyelids twitched!" This shout attracted the attention of Nan Yi and the others, as well as the Nangong family guards who were there to take care of their companions.

All eyes were on Nan Qi's face. Nan Er said doubtfully, "He didn't move. Sixth Brother, are you sure you're not mistaken?" Nan Liu said somewhat embarrassedly, "Maybe I'm mistaken!"

The guards from the Nangong family returned to their companion's bedside, and Nan Yi and the others stopped staring at Nan Qi. Only Nan Liu continued to keep his eyes on Nan Qi.

This time, besides looking at Nan Qi's face, he also looked at Nan Qi's limbs. Finally, Nan Qi's fingers twitched slightly. Nan Liu, who had been staring intently at him, was about to open his mouth but then closed it again.

We made a mistake earlier. This time, let's observe more carefully before calling out. We don't want to bring Nan Qi here only to have him pretend to be dead again, embarrassing him.

Nan Liu's eyes were fixed on Nan Qi. Nan Qi's eyelids slowly opened, his gaze confused and helpless. Nan Liu excitedly shouted, "He's awake! He's awake! Seventh Brother is awake!" Hearing this, everyone immediately gathered around.

"Seventh Brother, how are you feeling?" Nan Er asked with concern. Nan Qi weakly shook his head, his lips moving several times before finally uttering a single word: "Water."

Nan Liu quickly brought over a cup of tea and carefully fed it to him. After drinking three cups of tea, Nan Qi finally felt his throat was no longer dry and sore.

Nanqi is the youngest of her siblings and is usually the most loved by her older brothers and sisters. She loves to act cute and affectionate in front of them, whether there's a reason or not.

This time was no exception; he frowned and told Nan Yi and the others that he felt unwell, "It hurts, my whole body aches." The guard beside him also showed signs of waking up.

Nan Yi said in a deep voice, "A little pain is nothing, as long as you're alive. Sixth Brother, go and report to the master that Nan Qi and Guard Zhang have both woken up." "Alright!" Nan Liu chuckled and darted out of the tent.

"This medicine is amazing. I feel much better now," Nan Qi said softly. She was in a lot of pain when she first woke up, but now she felt a warm current flowing through her body, and the pain was slowly disappearing.

Seeing Nan Qi regain his life, Nan Yi and the others were overjoyed. With the help of his brothers, Nan Qi slowly sat up and said with emotion, "It's so good to be alive."

Upon learning that the four seriously injured and unconscious people had awakened, Wen Yuxia breathed a sigh of relief and a relieved smile appeared on her face. "Brother Rui, hand over the provisions to General Yang later, and then set off back to the capital this afternoon!"

The escorting of military supplies resulted in the loss of thirty guards for Nangong Wenrui, and Nan Qi almost died there as well. Wen Yuxia no longer wanted to stay at Tianxian Pass; she wanted to lead Nan Yi and the others back to the capital safely.

Nangong Wenrui glanced at Wen Yuxia in surprise. He had assumed Wen Yuxia would stay at Tianxian Pass to help General Yang defend the city, and he was wondering how to persuade her to leave. He hadn't expected Wen Yuxia to bring it up herself.

The Nangong family has businesses in various countries, and they have always maintained neutrality, never intervening when two countries are at war.

Because of Wen Yuxia, he held a sinecure in the Great Xia Dynasty, but this did not mean that the Nangong family would be loyal to the Great Xia.

Last night, the formidable pass was attacked. Considering the relationship between Wen Yuxia and Xia Yichen, he jumped off the city wall alone to stop the enemy from ramming the gate, giving General Yang time to organize a counterattack.

To his surprise, General Yang did not send anyone out of the city to fight the enemy. He was left to endure the hardship alone outside the city. If Nan Qi hadn't summoned Wen Yuxia and the others, he would have surely vanished into thin air in front of everyone to save his life.

The funniest thing is that General Yang later explained that the city wall was too high and the soldiers couldn't jump down. Pshaw, if they couldn't jump down, why didn't they slide down the rope?

He feared that he would reveal that the soldiers on night watch had neglected their duties, were unaware that the enemy was at the city gates, and had not sent anyone out of the city to help him, thus wanting him to die a violent death. This little scheme could be kept from others, but not from him.

"Nan Liu, tell Nan Yi to go to the military camp to find General Yang to handle the handover of supplies," Nangong Wenrui nodded slightly and gave the order directly. Wen Yuxia gestured to Nan Liu with her eyes to do as Nangong Wenrui said.

Nangong Wenrui didn't elaborate on yesterday's events, nor did Wen Yuxia ask. However, she still noticed something amiss from the archers' positioning.

Normally, archers should assist Nangong Wenrui in stopping the enemy from ramming the city gates and shoot down the enemy soldiers rushing towards him. However, when she climbed the city wall, she saw that the archers were located far from the city gate.

Looking at Nangong Wenrui's cold, hard face, Wen Yuxia said softly, "Brother Rui, you worked hard yesterday." Nangong Wenrui smiled slightly and said, "It's not hard at all. I'm just glad you don't blame me."

Nan Yi arrived at the military camp and found General Yang to complete the handover procedures for the provisions. General Yang, somewhat guiltily, inquired about the condition of the wounded.

Finally, General Yang said with a smirk, "This general will truthfully report the story of the Marquis of Zhennan going out of the city alone to stop the enemy from crashing into the city gate, and the princess calmly organizing a rescue on the city wall in the face of danger...&34;

It wasn't Wen Yuxia who came to handle the handover of the grain supplies, but a guard. General Yang knew that his little scheme couldn't be hidden from Wen Yuxia and her husband. Reporting the truth was the only way he could think of to curry favor, hoping that Wen Yuxia and her husband would let him off the hook.

Nan Yi said with a faint smile, "The princess is responsible for escorting the grain supplies. Once the supplies are delivered, she has nothing more to do. Marquis Zhennan came with the princess; the matter of Tianxian Pass has nothing to do with him. General Yang only needs to guard Tianxian Pass; there's no need to worry about anything else."

Before coming, Wen Yuxia had specifically instructed Nan Yi, and Nan Yi's words at this moment were essentially telling General Yang: defend the city well and all else will be well.

General Yang is the commander of Tianxian Pass, and to avoid affecting his performance, Wen Yuxia had to reassure him in advance that he should defend Tianxian Pass and not mention the plot against Nangong Wenrui.
