Not long after Song Lianhe returned to the clinic, he noticed some unfamiliar figures nearby.

"We are being watched completely."

Yinhuan poured herself a bowl of water as soon as she entered the room. After drinking half of it in one breath, she said, "I went to check. Those were the secret guards of the City Lord's Mansion."

Yinhuan put down the bowl and looked up at the person standing by the window. "It would be fine if Duan Shanmian only thought you were Prince Ling's person. But if he knew you were Prince Qing's wife..."

Song Lianhe stared at something not far away, his hand unconsciously stroking the bracelet on his wrist.

Why did Chunhua take her to see Duan Shanmian?

Is it...

Is it Zhou Cangyan?

Just then, Shopkeeper Meng came in from outside and hurriedly asked the waiter to close the doors and windows.

"Manager Meng, what's going on?"

"Oh my, it's a mess outside now! I heard that His Royal Highness King Qing is going to attack the city!"

Yinhuan asked in surprise: "Attack the city? How come it's so fast?"

"Last night, a group of Yongdong soldiers went to the river to launch a surprise attack, but they were completely wiped out! This must have angered King Qing!"

Shopkeeper Meng said anxiously: "No matter what, we should make plans early! This King Qing and His Royal Highness King Ling have always been at odds. If he knew our identities, our fate would be even worse than that of the people in this city!"

Seeing how anxiously he was arranging for his men to prepare for emergency shelter, Yinhuan felt a little relieved.

In her opinion, it was not a good idea to continue to be in a stalemate like this, and she had to end it as soon as possible.

However, Song Lianhe frowned and looked worried.

"What's wrong?" She asked in a low voice: "Based on what we have learned in the city these days, in terms of military equipment and defense, it is not worth fearing at all!"

Song Lianhe said nothing.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door desperately, "Doctor Song! Is Doctor Song here?"

When Song Lianhe heard it, it was Fat Tiger, the grandson of her neighbor Grandma Li in the alley.

She hurriedly asked Yinhuan to open the door.

When the door opened, Fat Tiger was holding half a bag of millet flour in his arms.

"Doctor Song, this is what my grandmother asked me to give you."

Song Lianhe looked at the half bag of millet flour and felt like something was blocking her heart.

If the "enemy army" attacked the city, Duan Shanmian ordered a strict defense, and the people would suffer in the end. The first problem they had to face was food shortage. The price of rice in the city had already risen sharply.

No one knows what the final outcome of the war will be. Storing more food means more hope of survival.

But Granny Li sent her half a bag of millet flour at this time, which undoubtedly left her with a little more hope...

"Fat Tiger, I can't have it!"

Song Lianhe stuffed the noodles back into Fat Tiger's arms.

"No, my grandmother said that she lived longer thanks to Dr. Song. Dr. Song, please take good care of yourself and save more people!"

After Fat Tiger finished speaking, he stuffed the noodles to Song Lianhe and turned around and ran away.

"Fat Tiger——"

Song Lianhe stood at the door, feeling mixed emotions.

Even during the initial free clinic, she simply wanted to hide her presence here, but these people only knew that she saved them and helped them! At the critical moment of life and death, they still remembered her kindness.

Yinhuan stood beside her and fell silent as he looked at the thing in her arms.

The streets were already in chaos, and people were rushing home.

"Doctor Song! Doctor Song, why did you come out?"

A noodle shop across the street was about to close, and the people inside saw her and hurriedly said, "Doctor Song, I heard that Dacheng's army is about to attack! You must hide well! If you really encounter danger, shout for help!"

The boss's wife also came out, "Yes, Doctor Song! If there is any danger, just shout! We will definitely come to rescue you!"

Song Lianhe looked at the couple, his throat choking a little.

She just casually gave them a few packets of medicine. Was it worth it for them to risk their lives to protect her?

From time to time, people passing by urged her to go in quickly. Song Lianhe turned around silently and untied the silver ring.

The two looked at each other, speechless.

Boss Duan Meng was ready to enter the secret passage. "You two, what are you waiting for? Oh, by the way, it's okay for you to come in, but that warrior E, his height and size are really... When we first built this secret passage, we didn't consider so much! So..."

Yinhuan glared in anger. Wasn't it obvious that she didn't want E Jintang to go in for refuge?

Whatever his height or size, I just complain that he eats too much!

It is true that a person's true character is revealed in times of adversity. Grandma Li brought half a bag of food rations to him, but he turned her away just because she stuttered!

Yinhuan didn't bother to talk nonsense and directly drew out his scimitar.

Shopkeeper Meng was anxious, "Hey! Miss Yinhuan, you are..."

"Silver ring."

Song Lianhe raised his hand to hold her down, then slowly raised his eyes to look at Shopkeeper Meng, "Don't worry, we won't go in."

"Ah? This... But King Ling's side..."

"We will explain ourselves."

Although Yinhuan was angry, he also knew that they would not be in danger, so he glared at the shopkeeper fiercely.

"Well, well, okay then. Take care, everyone!" Shopkeeper Meng clasped his fists.

The shopkeeper took two of his assistants into the secret passage and locked the door from the inside.

"Xiaojiu! Xiaojiu!"

E Jintang came over from the kitchen and asked, "Why is there no food?"

"what?"

Yinhuan went to the kitchen and took a look. She was so angry that she kicked the door.

"You bastard! You actually brought all the food in? What do you want us to eat?!"

Song Lianhe stroked his brows and said, "I'm not afraid of them. Jintang has eaten up almost all the food they had stored for half a year. They are really afraid of Jintang."

Yinhuan spat, turned her head and said, "Fortunately, we will be able to meet up with His Royal Highness King Qing soon. Otherwise, I will never let this old bastard go!"

"elder sister!"

In front of the courtyard gate, Ajun exclaimed.

Song Lianhe's face changed and he immediately ran over, "Ajun! What's wrong?"

Yinhuan and E Jintang also hurriedly followed.

Song Lianhe paused and saw a shiny knife at Ajun's neck.

She frowned and raised her eyes. Zhu Liao held Ajun in a knife, and a person slowly walked out from behind him.

Duan Shanmian looked at her calmly, "Doctor Song... No, I should call you Princess Qing."

Song Lianhe stared at him and had already guessed his intention from his posture.

"Want to use me to threaten Zhou Cangyan?"

She sneered, and gently stroked the bracelet on one hand with the other, and there was some slight movement on her wrist.

After waking up Xiao Lan, she looked at Duan Shanmian coldly and said, "Don't even think about it."

Yinhuan and E Jintang protected her on both sides. Yinhuan lowered her voice and said, "Jintang will protect you and run first. Leave this to me! Don't look back, just run!"

E Jintang was anxious, "Xiaojiu, no..."

"Don't talk!" Yinhuan glared at him. E Jintang pursed his lips and really didn't dare to say anything more, but the look in her eyes was anxious.

Song Lianhe looked at her. Is this still the extremely selfish Yinhuan from before?

Duan Shanmian had been staring at them, as if giving them enough time to discuss. He stood there with his hands behind his back, with an indifferent temperament, and was doing the thing he hated the most.
