Concubine Ling didn't show the slightest mercy in this one stab. She really intended to stab Gu Chenglin to death. The ferociousness in her eyes was totally different from the tenderness of the past.
Gu Chengfeng returned to his senses and hurriedly pulled her away!
Gu Chenglin fell into a pool of blood as his sad eyes widened. He stared at the triumphant look in Concubine Ling’s face as he slowly fell to the floor.
They let her down!
They let her down!
Then she would ruin them all!
Don’t those two old hags treasured Gu Chenglin the most, this precious grandson of theirs? Then she would kill him!
And Gu Chenglin, he loved her the most, just like his own mother.
This one stab surely dealt Gu Chenglin the deepest pain, didn't it?
"You really believe I love you all? If not for the purpose of entering the Marquis Estate, do you think I’d be willing to look after you? Hahaha... Hahahaha... "
Concubine Ling laughed madly.
Strong wind blew in from the outside, making all the curtains flutter. The wind mixed with the sound of her laughter which was like the anguished wailing of a ghost.
It turned out that their aunt, whom they believed loved them all these years, was just using them as a tool to fight for favor. How ironic, what a slap to the face!
Both brothers suffered a terrible blow at this moment; to say that they felt the sky had collapsed on them wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
Gu Chengfeng's whole brain was in complete disorder. Instinctively, he patted Gu Chenglin's pale face, "Third brother! Third brother!"
Gu Chenglin was in a very bad condition. His robes were dyed red with blood, and his breath was weakening sharply.
Gu Chengfeng hastened to carry him and rushed out the door, "Physician! Call the physician!"
The physician truly went through a day of ups and downs. First, Concubine Ling got pregnant inexplicably, and then the third young master was stabbed in the chest. He felt that he was already too old to adapt to the days of the Marquis Estate.
The physician examined Gu Chenglin's injury without delay.
According to theory, this dagger had to be pulled out, then they must stop the bleeding and stitch up the wound for Gu Chenglin.
It was just that this dagger was inserted in a very dangerous spot that it almost pierced his heart. If they pulled it out, the bleeding wouldn’t stop.
But if they didn’t pull it out, Gu Chenglin wouldn’t last long either.
In other words, Gu Chenglin’s case was hopeless.
The physician said with sorrow, "Apologies, but this humble one is really powerless."
"What happened?" Marquis Gu came rushing in.
Just now, the two brothers went to see Concubine Ling. Although he was half-angered to death by their actions, he really didn't expect something to happen.
Looking at Gu Chenglin covered in blood and with a dagger in his chest, his heart ached!
Of the four sons, he loved Gu Yan the most, yes. However, it didn’t mean he didn’t love the other three.
“Huang Zhong! Go and request an imperial physician!"
He growled!
Huang Zhong went without stopping.
Just as Huang Zhong's left, Gu Changqing returned and entered the estate.
He did go to the military camp, but he always felt uneasy, his mind somewhere else, so he simply came back.
He was a soldier. He had killed a number of people and had been wounded himself many times. As soon as he laid his eyes on Gu Chenglin, he knew that Gu Chenglin was hopeless.
Even the oldest medical officer in the military camp wouldn’t be able to cure this level of injury.
Gu Chenglin was only bleeding from the wound at first, but soon his body began shaking and his mouth started vomiting blood.
Gu Chengfeng severely blamed himself!
It was all his fault. He didn't protect his third brother well!
If he had been just the slightest wary of Concubine Ling, just like he was to Yao shi, he wouldn't have failed to react.
Gu Chengfeng held Gu Chenglin's hand and burst into tears.
Gu Changqing clenched his fists, and his eyes flashed with endless cold glint.
At that moment, no one knew what he was thinking. They only saw him striding forward all of a sudden, putting his arms under Gu Chenglin's knee and back and carefully holding him up.
"What are you going to do?" Marquis Gu asked.
"Take him to the physician!" Gu Changqing replied in a resolute voice.
Marquis Gu said angrily, "Which physician are you going to take him to? Huang Zhong has already gone to get an imperial physician! His condition is very bad, don't move him at will!"
He still knew martial arts at the very least and had this knowledge. For people with such serious injury, it was fatal to move them at will, as it was easy to tear the affected areas and wounds.
Gu Changqing said, "The imperial physician can't save him."
Marquis Gu was immediately furious, "If the imperial physician can't save him, the physician outside can? Don't you see what time it is now? Which physician has their door still open, waiting for you to bring them people to treat?!"
Gu Chengfeng also looked at Gu Changqing in wonder, "Eldest brother..."
Gu Changqing didn't explain anything. If even that person couldn’t save him, it was no use even if all the imperial physicians came.
He didn’t know how high that person's medical skill was, but he knew where the medical skill of the State of Zhao’s imperial physician stopped at. It was impossible for them to cure this kind of injury.
Gu Changqing was the most disciplined one among the brothers. No matter how he felt about Marquis Gu, he had never disobeyed his father openly.
This was the first time that he was quite determined to oppose Marquis Gu.
"Unfilial son! Come back here!" Marquis Gu went to stop him, but he was blocked by Gu Changqing's dark guard.
Gu Changqing's dark guard was assigned to him by the Old Marquis, and they only took orders from Gu Changqing.
Marquis Gu was so mad that he complained about his own father a hundred and eighty times in his heart. Am I still your own son or what?!
Gu Changqing wrapped Gu Chenglin in a cloak and carried Gu Chenglin out of the estate.
The cold wind rustled.
He carefully protected his younger brother in his arms.
He could feel Gu Chenglin's breath slowly growing weaker and weaker.
It wasn’t just the injury. Gu Chenglin himself seemed to have lost the will to survive.
"You can't die. I promised our mother I would take care of you two..."
He forced himself to calm down, but because he was too worried about Gu Chenglin, he actually didn't notice a familiar figure following him nearby.
Gu Chengfeng was shocked when he saw his brother come to Bishui Alley.
Gu Jiao was in the middle of slumber when she was suddenly awakened by a knock at the door in the middle of the night.
She got up to open the gate.
She wasn’t afraid that someone had come to rob them in the middle of the night, because she could just rob the thing back, and she wasn’t worried about the other party reporting to the authorities.
She opened the gate and saw Gu Changqing.
Gu Changqing was carrying a bloodied teenager in his arms.
Gu Jiao had beaten up Gu Chenglin before, so of course she recognized him.
She was not surprised to see the guy stabbed.
Gu Changqing had a very complicated look on his face. He was well aware of the discord between Gu Chenglin and his sister and brother, and also understood that Gu Jiao might not really want to see Gu Chenglin.
But he had no choice.
He looked at Gu Jiao and opened his mouth, saying with difficulty, "Please, save him."
On the roof not far away, Gu Chengfeng's heart felt as though it was pricked by a needle.
Was this the same eldest brother who always stood proudly anywhere he went? Was he still that iron-faced yama who never bowed down to anyone in the military camp?
He actually begged a little girl!
What would she do?
Would she refuse eldest brother?
