Lai Lai moved very quickly and arrived at the guards' quarters in a short while. Twenty strokes of the board had already been given to the guards. Several guards were lying on the long bunk bed, groaning. They had resentment in their hearts but dared not say it out loud. As a slave, if the master wants to beat you, it only takes a word.

"Will the prince cause us trouble when he comes back?"

This is the troublesome thing. Several people sighed. You know, it is not easy to come to the Marquis' Mansion as a guard. Many of them were recommended to come in. If something happens, the recommender will also be implicated.

Lai Lai came in eagerly, "Everyone, are you all okay?"

Seeing that it was Lailai, several people wanted to get up, but Lailai hurriedly asked them to rest, "Second Young Master feels bad about what happened today, and has been thinking about you all, so he specially asked me to bring some medicine to see you all."

"I know that you have been fined and your money has been confiscated. The second young master has also made up for it. I asked me to tell you a message. I am really sorry that you have been implicated by him today."

Several people were flattered. "It's all our duty. The Second Young Master was also concerned about the safety of the Marquis's Mansion. We didn't see the man clearly ourselves. It has nothing to do with the Second Young Master."

It’s all because the prince is sneaky and behaves suspiciously.

"Second Master is too polite. We brothers are not in a position to accept this money."

Lailai put down a bag of silver and said, "I've put it here for you. The medicine is also here, but it may not be enough. You can only go and buy some medicine by yourselves. Don't leave any hidden dangers."

"There are too many people here, so I'll go back first. Everyone, take a good rest."

After saying that, he bowed and left. After he left, several people's eyes fell on the bag of silver. Someone looked expectantly, "It looks like a lot."

Someone stepped forward to open it. It was an amount far exceeding their three-month monthly allowance. Each person could have some money left over to buy medicine after five months. "Since the Second Young Master is so willing, let's take it. We can just keep an eye on the Second Young Master's affairs in the future. Take it quickly and don't let others know."

After getting the silver, the resentment in their hearts was reduced by more than half. They put away the silver and continued to lie down and say that the second young master in the mansion was actually not a bad guy, and that today's incident was not his fault, etc., and they had a great liking for him.

At Chunhua Hospital, the doctor carefully examined Tang Rong and said that it was just skin injuries and no injuries to the bones or muscles. However, the skin injuries were too severe and he would need to recover for half a month. As for when the bruises on his face would disappear, "It will disappear in half a month."

Tang Rong felt that this was a quack doctor. He just felt severe pain all over his body and he clearly felt that his bones were broken, but the doctor insisted that there was nothing wrong and he could not force him to continue treatment. After applying medicine all over his body, he lay down. This time, there was a problem again. His chest and back were all beaten, and his arms were injured when he slept on his side. He could not lie down at all. The doctor could do nothing about it and could only restrain himself.

"Who on earth was so cruel? It must be painful to be injured like this."

After Tang Rong reluctantly lay down, the waiters withdrew. Tao Yiran, crying like a pear blossom in the rain, sat on the edge of the bed and said, "What should I do? Why don't I ask my father to go to the palace to ask the imperial physician to come and see me? I will be worried if he doesn't come to see me."

The wound on his face was covered with ointment, and the bruises were too bruises to look at. His eyelids were swollen and shiny, and he could only open them a crack with great effort. "Let's talk about it tomorrow."

He closed his eyes, hoping that it was just a dream when he woke up, or that his injury had healed. Seeing his horrible face, Tao Yiran wiped her tears and stood up, "You take a good rest, I'll have someone guard the door, call me if you need anything."

She left and went to sleep next door. Tang Rong struggled to open that crack again, tilted his head and watched her back as she left. He thought she would stay and keep watch for him.

He originally thought that he would not be able to sleep, but he slept until dawn. When he woke up, he did not feel anything. When he was more conscious, the pain came back. He wanted to get up to urinate, but Yingyue, who had been waiting since before dawn, ran in quickly and said, "Prince, you have suffered."

"You... have been guarding outside this whole time?"

Yingyue answered vaguely, "The prince was injured. I was so worried that I couldn't sleep. I felt more at ease staying with him."

"Prince, does it still hurt?"

After all, she was a maid who had been with him for a long time. She served him wholeheartedly and he was satisfied with her on weekdays. He had ignored her recently because of Tao Yiran. At this moment, Tang Rong thought of Yingyue's kindness again, and half of his body weight was pressed on her. "It hurts."

Yingyue shed tears. She helped Tang Rong to relieve himself and then carefully sent him back to bed. Seeing Tang Rong's hurt face, she shed tears again and wiped them away quickly. "Your Highness, you must be hungry. I made some pig blood porridge, which is very nourishing. I'll go and bring it to you."

Tang Rong pulled her and said, "Stop busying yourself. You must be tired after guarding for so long."

"It's not tiring to serve the prince."

Yingyue burst into laughter and said, "Your Highness, wait for me. I will bring it to you."

Tao Yiran was unwilling to wait by the bed all night, so Yingyue took advantage of the opportunity. After Yingyue brought the pig blood porridge to Tang Rong and he had eaten half of it, Tao Yiran appeared. When she entered the room, she saw the sweet and warm look of the two, and her eyes immediately turned red. Yingyue hurriedly stood up and bowed, "Young Madam, please don't misunderstand the prince. I came here because I was thinking about him, not because he summoned me."

As she spoke, she quickly handed half a bowl of pig blood porridge to Tao Yiran, "Young Madam is here, so I will leave now."

She showed awe and fear of Tao Yiran. Tao Yiran frowned slightly and wanted to throw the bowl of pig blood porridge in her hand. The sight of her made her feel sick. Tang Rong felt uncomfortable. He was still bothered by the fact that Tao Yiran did not keep watch for him and did not give him more care.

"Yingyue has been serving me for a long time. She is sensible and knows when to advance and when to retreat. You don't need to worry about her."

Tao Yiran shed tears and sat on the edge of the bed with the pig blood porridge in her hand, "Eat the porridge."

At this moment, Tang Mo and Xin An were already having breakfast with the old lady in Chunrong Courtyard next door. They woke up very early today and wanted to see Zhutou Rong's miserable condition up close. They were so happy that they were especially attentive when serving breakfast to the old lady, and their ability to please her became more and more skillful. "If my grandmother hadn't saved me last night, I would have been beaten to death by my father."

"Father is too biased. I was worried when my elder brother was beaten like that. How can he say that it was me who did it? It's really hurtful."

The old lady looked sympathetic, "Your father is also worried and confused. Who made you always act like a fool?"

"I have changed it all. Grandma, do you think I have changed recently?"

The old lady smiled and said, "It's good that you change it. Your father doesn't love you, but your grandmother does."

Xin An sat aside with a smile on her face. She felt that she should not underestimate Tang Mo's shamelessness at all. He had mastered the essence of pleasing the old lady in just a few days. She also felt that it was really fatal for a grown man to act like a spoiled child, especially when he was a good-looking man. If he acted like a spoiled child to her like this one day, could she withstand it?

She's just a little old in her mentality, not calm. Besides, the older you get, the more you like young people.

It's killing me.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Tang Rong spoke caringly, "Grandma, do you want to go see Big Brother? The doctor said that he didn't have any broken bones, but the skin injuries are pretty serious. Just thinking about it makes me feel painful."

The old lady nodded, thinking that Tang Mo had indeed grown up. She raised her hand and asked Tang Mo to support her. Then she heard Tang Mo say that they could go to the manor the day after tomorrow. "I have told my father that we will go to the Beiya Army after we return from the manor."

The old lady was already looking forward to it, and told Ganlu to bring some nourishing herbs along, and the group slowly headed towards Chunhua Courtyard.
