Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

What a big deal!

Two of the six heads of the Liangzhou Sihu and Sili were brutally murdered in a small courtyard in the city.

On the same night, dozens of assassins broke into the backyard of Suiyi Building and murdered the only female official appointed by Prince Rui, causing her to be seriously injured and her life was hanging by a thread.

In the past two days, almost everyone in the streets and alleys of Shuoyang City has been discussing these two things.

In a tidy room in the backyard of the store that Cheng Wan and Wang bought together a few years ago, Xu Zhinian was feeding Cheng Wan medicine.

"Don't bother. I can drink it myself."

It would be better for her to swallow it in one gulp than to feed her spoonful at a time.

Xu Zhinian's eyes were red and swollen, and it was obvious that he had cried a lot in the past two days.

"You're almost done bandaging your face and neck. Just be good and I'll feed you so you don't strain the wound on your arm."

OK.

Cheng Wan happily accepted his friend's kindness.

After finishing a bowl of medicine, Xu Zhinian skillfully stuffed a candied fruit into Cheng Wan's mouth.

Xu Zhinian looked at Cheng Wan's still pale face, her eyes welled up and she wanted to cry again.

"It's all the fault of those damn villains. They actually killed the spies that my father and uncle arranged around Suiyi Building in advance. Otherwise, they would have rushed back to report the news and would not have left you alone..."

Xu Zhinian wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief, feeling relieved but also afraid, she said, "Luckily you're okay, otherwise I... I'm afraid I would be heartbroken."

When Xu Zhinian said "it's okay" he naturally meant that Cheng Wan was still alive.

It's so dangerous, but I'm lucky to be alive.

"Okay, okay, it's all in the past, don't think about it.

Stop crying, the tears you've shed in the past two days could fill up a basin."

Xu Zhinian burst into laughter and said, "How can it be as exaggerated as you say?"

Cheng Wan was about to continue entertaining Xu Zhinian when he suddenly heard someone talking outside.

"Master Chang, this is it. My Ah Wan is inside."

"Madam, you are embarrassing me. I am not a lord at all. You can just call me 'Eunuch Chang'."

Wang tried her best to control her panic and discomfort, and smiled reluctantly, "Of course I want it. You are someone that His Royal Highness Prince Rui trusts. It is a great blessing for me to have a word with you. Not to mention that you brought the imperial physician here on the orders of His Royal Highness Prince Rui to treat my Ah Wan's injury. I am so grateful that I don't know what to do."

Chang Fu glanced at Wang.

Although he still has some petty and unpresentable qualities, he is a simple-minded person and his words are pleasant to the ears.

Chang Fu kept smiling and reminded Wang: "Madam, please lead the way."

"Hey! Hey!"

Wang hurried forward and knocked on the door: "Ah Wan, King Rui sent Lord Changfu to bring the imperial physician to treat your injuries."

Inside the house, Cheng Wan and Xu Zhinian, who had heard the noise outside, looked at each other.

Xu Zhinian pulled out the pillow behind Cheng Wan, helped Cheng Wan lie down, and then quickly went to open the door.

"Eunuch Chang, Imperial Physician, please come in quickly."

Xu Zhinian led Chang Fu and the imperial physician into the house.

Wang followed at the end.

"Eunuch Chang..."

Cheng Wan struggled to sit up, looking extremely weak.

Xu Zhinian hurriedly supported Cheng Wan, his voice full of anxiety: "You are so weak, don't get up. Eunuch Chang will definitely not blame you."

Chang Fu looked at Cheng Wan calmly, with a worried look on his face:

"Miss Xu is right. The prince sent us here to treat Master Cheng's injuries. How can we trouble Master Cheng any further?

Master Cheng, please lie down quickly. Doctor Lian, please take a look at Master Cheng."

Cheng Wan lay down again, with obvious embarrassment on his pale face: "Thank you, Eunuch Chang. I was rude today. I will apologize to Eunuch Chang another day... cough... cough... apologize... cough..."

Wang was so frightened by Cheng Wan's appearance that she trembled.

She wanted to pat Cheng Wan on the back, but she didn't dare to delay the imperial physician's treatment of Cheng Wan, so she could only stand by and watch with a worried heart.

Xu Zhinian covered her mouth and started to cry. Her cry was soft and suppressed, causing Chang Fu to look at her several times.

Doctor Lian is not young, but his beard is already gray.

He has been a doctor for most of his life and has treated many people, but after learning about Cheng Wan's injuries and physical condition, he still couldn't help but feel surprised.

Such a serious injury, but he just couldn't get up.

His body is unusually strong and sturdy.

Life is really great.

"Doctor, how is it?"

Wang saw that Doctor Lian seemed to have finished his diagnosis and couldn't wait to ask.

“I was badly injured, lost a lot of blood, and am very weak.

Fortunately, Lord Cheng has a good health, otherwise your family would be holding a funeral for him now.

You need to take good care of yourself from now on, otherwise it will be difficult for Master Cheng to recover to his previous health."

The tears that Wang had been holding back finally flowed out. She couldn't stop feeling scared, but also relieved.

Xu Zhinian supported Wang and pleaded with Doctor Lian, "Please prescribe a prescription. As long as it can help Master Cheng recover, please tell me what you need."

Doctor Lian nodded slightly to Xu Zhinian: "It is the duty of a doctor to do his best."

"Thank you, Doctor." Cheng Wan thanked Doctor Lian sincerely.

Wang didn't have time to cry and hurriedly thanked Doctor Lian.

Doctor Lian also nodded slightly, walked to the table nearby, sat down, and began to write a prescription.

Chang Fu's eyes flickered as he looked at Cheng Wan:

"Sir Cheng, the prince just returned to the city. When he heard that you were seriously injured, he immediately asked me to bring the imperial physician over.

Now that Master Cheng is being cared for by Imperial Physician Lian, I will return to report to the prince first, so that the prince can rest assured."

Cheng Wan struggled to stand up and said, "Please tell the prince that I am grateful to him. When I can walk again, I will go to the palace to thank him in person."

"Don't worry, Master Cheng should focus on getting well first."

Chang Fu bowed slightly to Cheng Wan, then turned and left.

"Mother, please send Eunuch Chang off for me."

Wang nodded and quickly chased after him.

After the person left, Cheng Wan glanced at Doctor Lian who was still writing a prescription, then looked at Xu Zhinian and they both breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the injuries were real, Chang Fu represented King Rui, so it was impossible for him not to be nervous.

That’s good now. I can rest and recuperate for the time being.

……

On the other side, after Chang Fu returned to Prince Rui's Mansion, he immediately went to Prince Rui's study.

"Your Majesty, Lord Cheng is indeed seriously injured. He has difficulty even getting up and his face is extremely pale."

Chang Fu pursed his lips and added, "He is completely different from the always high-spirited Mr. Cheng."

Prince Rui narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "I have been away for only a few days, and in Shuoyang City, two officials, a county magistrate, and a ninth-rank assistant were killed. They are all very courageous."

As one of the people who is most familiar with and understands King Rui, Chang Fu confirmed that King Rui is extremely angry now.

Inside the study, Chang Fu knelt on the ground, listening carefully to the movements from above, not daring to breathe.
