Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

"Are you questioning our decision?" As soon as Wan Shufang finished speaking, a guard drew out his knife and held it in front of Wan Shufang in a deterrent manner.

His eyes were extremely sharp, but his expression was extremely cold, like a monster about to explode in anger.

"She is not questioning you, she is just worried about this girl." Doctor Lin saw the guard's murderous look and was worried that he would wipe Wan Shufang's neck with a cold face in the next moment.

He was frightened and quickly came to Wan Shufang and protected her behind him.

Feeling Dr. Lin's kindness, Wan Shufang's tense heartstrings relaxed slightly, but soon they rose to her throat again.

It was because these guards had drawn their swords and were pointing them at Doctor Lin with great momentum.

Seeing their unusually indifferent attitude, Wan Shufang was afraid that they would make an example of him, so she quickly pulled Dr. Lin's sleeve, told him not to worry about her, and stood in front of him.

"This little girl doesn't look even fifteen years old. Even if she is a spy sent by someone else, she won't allow you to bully her like this."

"Besides, if she is really a spy, shouldn't you bring government officials to arrest her? Why do you have to mobilize so many people? Is there some misunderstanding?"

Wan Shufang said this in one breath, examining the many guards with cold and focused eyes.

Wan Shufang tried to discern whether there was any other meaning in their unusually cold expressions, but could not discern anything. She was not discouraged at all, and asked thoughtfully: "Was it Liu Yaoyao who asked you to arrest this little girl? Or His Royal Highness Prince Rong?"

"Why are you doing so many things?" When several guards heard Wan Shufang mention Prince Rong in a calm tone, they suddenly thought of her identity as the general's wife. They looked at each other, not knowing what to do next.

Wan Shufang noticed their attitude change, and although she didn't know the reason, she could guess a thing.

She thought of Prince Rong who had never appeared in front of her, and she had an idea in mind in an instant.

"I'm worried that you'll be fooled. You know, spies are best at cheating and deceiving. You're young, and you're from Prince Rong's Mansion. You haven't had much contact with outsiders. How would you know the methods of spies?"

Wan Shufang deliberately dragged out the last syllable of her words, and then acted as if she was speaking in a serious and earnest manner, as if she was truly considering these guards.

"The spies in our house might have been sent by your husband. You are defending this maid so much, most likely because she passed on information to you."

The guards looked at each other and soon turned their attention to Wan Shufang.

They are not so easy to fool. Besides, the reason they chased the maid to Wan Shufang's side courtyard was because someone specifically reminded them.

After thinking about it, they immediately suspected Wan Shufang.

"I don't even know this lady." The little maid who was crying silently said weakly when she heard the guard's words, but her tearful eyes moved around Wan Shufang's body.

I don't know what she was thinking about, but her back was straight, like a victorious general returning from a battle, full of pride. But the blood color drained away from her face in an instant, making her look a little shaky, as if she would fall down at the slightest wind.

"I am a child born in the Rong Palace. My parents are loyal to the prince, and so am I. How can you wrongly accuse me like this?"

"That woman named Liu Yaoyao is just a guest of the prince. She is acting beyond her authority and has treacherous thoughts. You are the prince's people, how can you listen to her?"

"The prince and the housekeeper are not here, and you just listen to him like this. Do you want to betray the prince?"

She squeezed out each word from between her teeth, her eyes filled with tears and despair.

She glanced at everyone one by one, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"I won't let that woman succeed. You guys take care of yourself."

Gritting her teeth and saying this, the little maid rushed forward in the direction she chose. In an instant, her fragile neck hit the sharp blade, and the bright red blood seemed to mourn for her as it splattered on the faces of the guards and Wan Shufang.

Feeling the warmth on her cheek, Wan Shufang subconsciously reached out to touch it.

When she touched something wet, she suddenly woke up from her dream and stared at the little maid who was lying on the ground, motionless, with an incredible look on her face.

"What are you doing?" The guard, whose face also showed warmth, was bewildered for a moment, and then in disbelief. He stared at the little maid, unable to believe that she would voluntarily seek death.

"I... am innocent. Liu Yaoyao, she... is a bad person. She harmed me." The little maid's voice was intermittent, as if it would cut off at the next moment.

Wan Shufang hurried to her side and wanted to treat her wound, but found that the wound was too large and too deep, and even the best medicine could not stop the bleeding.

"She won't survive." Doctor Lin was also shocked by the development of the situation. He reacted in the same way as Wan Shufang and immediately examined the wound of the little maid. He quickly came to the same conclusion as Wan Shufang.

"How did things turn out like this?" Wan Shufang's eyes turned slightly red, but tears soon fell, blocking her vision.

"She is seeking death, which shows that she is guilty of her crime." The guard came to his senses and immediately said something, then ordered people to drag the body of the little maid away.

Wan Shufang and Doctor Lin wanted to stop it, but they were no match for the numerous guards. In just a cup of tea, they were pushed to the ground and watched helplessly as the body of the little maid was dragged away, leaving a bloody patch on the ground.

"She must have suffered a great injustice, so she wanted to die. How could she be guilty of something?"

"I think you are the ones who are guilty. That's why you don't want me and Doctor Lin to do our best for her."

Seeing the ruthless looks of the guards, Wan Shufang felt more and more grief in her heart, and in a moment it turned into anger and burst out.

However, the guards ignored her and left with the body, leaving her and Doctor Lin there in grief and indignation.

"It's so unjust." Doctor Lin looked at the bloodstains on the ground and burst into tears.

Wan Shufang choked up and said, "These people's consciences have long been eaten by dogs. How can they still remember justice?"

She wiped away her tears and helped Doctor Lin up: "Don't be sad, go back and rest first. As for refining the medicine, we will continue tomorrow."

When Doctor Lin heard her mention the matter of refining medicine, he knew that she had an idea in mind, and immediately nodded and said, "I will rest well, don't worry."

After he said that, he thought of other doctors and went to find them immediately.

Wan Shufang sent him out of the side courtyard and then returned to her room. She then took out the note that the maid had handed to her and read it.

After finding out that Prince Rong had fallen ill in the General's Mansion, the Emperor began to use the Queen's death as an excuse to angrily rebuke all the civil and military officials, and his intentions were directed at Prince Rong, fearing that the General's Mansion might be implicated.

Wan Shufang's brows knitted unconsciously: "That little girl really was the one who sent me the message. There's nothing wrong with that. So why did she want to commit suicide?"
