The military doctor performed the suturing, while the government doctor performed the stitches nearby, and Lu Yan was responsible for the logistical support.

Fortunately, Lu Yan brought soap with her. She asked the two of them to wash their hands several times with soap, rinse them with strong liquor, and boil the suture thread and needle in boiling water before letting them operate on Lu Sheng. The two of them were amazed by Lu Yan's actions.

The military doctor moved very quickly, tidying up the wound with one hand, aligning it and flattening it, and holding the needle and flying it up and down with the other hand. Lu Sheng was unconscious and his wounds had been stitched up.

The stitched wounds also had to be bandaged with medicine. The two left the fever-reducing medicine and gave a few instructions before leaving.

Lu Sheng is still sleeping. Lu Yan started to think about this matter when she was free.

The bloody disaster was accepted, but Lu Yan never imagined that it would be in such a way. He thought Lu Sheng would be implicated by the prince, but in the end, Lu Sheng basically blocked her.

Looking back now, the men in black appeared one after another, and their target was not just the prince. The two people behind them were obviously coming for them. Lu Yan didn't think there was any need to assassinate her because of her status, so she was just here for He Yue.

Someone wants to kill Heyue.

Thinking about it this way, it turns out that Li Heyue died while blocking the prince's knife. That person may not only want to kill the prince, but may also have planned to kill Heyue.

In the original work, it was probably the prince who brought He Yue back to the capital before he was discovered to have murderous intentions. Now the plot has changed a lot. Someone probably also targeted her very early. When Lu Yan arrived in Jingzhou, she went straight to Yuting Pavilion. The act of directly redeeming He Yue attracted the attention of the secret person, who found an opportunity to prepare to eliminate the root cause.

Lu Yan once again felt that fate is not as good as fate. Lu Yan stayed behind instead of returning to the capital because she was worried that Lu Sheng would be injured, but it was precisely because Lu Yan took He Yue to stay that Lu Sheng was injured. If Lu Yan returned to the capital directly, Lu Sheng might not be injured.

But Tumu said before that Lu Sheng's bloody disaster was unavoidable. If Lu Yan and He Yue were ambushed on their way back to Beijing, both of them might die without a burial place, and the consequences would be disastrous. This is probably the effect of Lu Sheng's injury.

In the middle of the night, Lu Sheng's anesthetic wore off and he woke up from the pain. He saw Lu Yan dozing off next to his bed. She fell asleep again without making a sound.

Lu Yan was dazed for a while and then woke up. Lu Sheng had fallen asleep again, but with a fever.

Lu Yan expected that Lu Sheng would have a fever, so she immediately asked someone to make some medicine and drink it for him. The fever subsided the next morning.

The stitches healed quickly. Within three to five days, Lu Sheng felt that he could get off the ground. He slowly moved to scrub and wash his hair with the help of the servant. On the seventh day, it was time to remove the stitches.

Lu Yan called the military doctor, who was also very excited. This was the first time he used fishing thread to suture the wound.

The military doctor moved quickly, and Lu Sheng had just finished removing it when he felt the pain. The military doctor raised his head with the removed suture and asked him, "Does it hurt?"

Lu Sheng clicked his tongue: "It hurts a little if it doesn't hurt, but it hurts a little if it hurts."

The military doctor was also very satisfied. This showed that using the fishing line was indeed not very painful. He told Lu Sheng: "It will be almost done after another three to five days."

Lu Sheng looked at the cut on his stomach and was very emotional. If he didn't get stitches, he would have to lie down for at least half a month.

Regarding the assassination, Lu Yan told Lu Sheng her speculation, and Lu Sheng said solemnly: "If someone wants to kill He Yue to silence him, it means there must be a secret about He Lie."

Lu Yan asked He Yue, but He Yue didn't know anything. She was so scared that her legs were weak when she heard that someone was going to assassinate her. She didn't even know that the man in black was going after her for so many days.

Lu Yan found the prince again and asked him if he had found out from the interrogation and who arranged the assassination.

The prince smiled and said, "You know it's the second child even without a trial!"

Lu Yan frowned: "Are you sure it's him?"

The prince was a little confused: "I'm sure it's him. What's wrong? What's the problem?"

Lu Yan expressed her speculation: "If these men in black are a group, it means that the second prince will assassinate Heyue at the same time as you."

The prince's expression also became serious: "She has been fine in Jingzhou for so many years, so the second son doesn't want her to come to Beijing alive. What will happen if she comes to Beijing alive?"

"She will see Helie when she enters the capital." Lu Yan said, "So the second prince doesn't want her to meet Helie."

Both of them had some guesses in their minds. Lu Yan thought of the ending in the original work where the second prince colluded with the Beidi people, and she had a vague guess.

The prince thanked Lu Yan for reminding him: "Thank you for reminding me. I will send someone to check carefully to find out what he is doing."

As long as the prince has a direction, everything will be easy.

This delay lasted until mid-June. Lu Sheng lay in the carriage for almost ten days without going to the river embankment to check on the progress. The prince came to inform them that the construction work was on track. If Lu Sheng recovered from his injuries, they could go back. .

It will take about twenty days to go on the road, and it will be almost mid-July when we arrive in the capital. August is the birthday of His Majesty, and the prince has not yet prepared any gifts, so he is starting to feel a little anxious again.

Lu Yan calculated the time and felt that it was indeed time to go back. Lu Sheng was almost done, at least it would not affect his movements. He came on horseback when he came, so he would probably have to take a car all the way back.

A few people packed up and set off on their way back to the capital.
