I just want to live a good life

"Your Highness, I have brought back my assassin."

"Oh? Where is he?"

"I'll leave it to Manager Ding."

Mu Yunting frowned, "Why give it to Ding Fu? Where is the falcon?"

"The falcon went after the killer."

"..."

Su Nuan saw a hint of confusion on Mu Yunting's face, so she told him the whole story of how the masked man came to talk to her and was killed. She just concealed the fact that the masked man wrote on her hand because she didn't know how this incident was related to Xia Qingyan.

Su Nuan described the process of shooting the three arrows in a thrilling way. The more Mu Yunting listened, the tighter his brows frowned. When Su Nuan finished describing what happened, he asked, "You gave the body to Ding Fu to take good care of. Do you want to do something to him?"

"That's right. If someone wants to silence him, it proves that he has a secret. If he's alive, the person behind the scenes will be uneasy and will try every possible means to kill him again."

Hearing these words, Mu Yunting's eyes flashed with approval, and he said lightly: "Go back and have a good rest, and leave the rest to me."

Su Nuan felt inexplicably relieved after hearing this, but she was still worried about Ying Shu, and didn't know whether Manager Ding had hired a doctor to treat his injuries.

"Your Highness, Ying Shu was injured because he blocked an arrow for me. Can you please ask the imperial physician to treat his injury?"

Imperial physicians only treat royal family members and princes and ministers. Ying Shu's status does not allow him to hire an imperial physician. Su Nuan guessed that even if Steward Ding helped Ying Shu to hire a doctor, it would not be an imperial physician. She asked Mu Yunting for help out of selfish motives. On the one hand, Ying Shu saved her, so she should help him get the best treatment. On the other hand, after today's conversation with Ying Shu, she thought that Ying Shu was a very thoughtful person, and she wanted him to get better soon and help her make money.

Mu Yunting frowned slightly, "Well, I will ask Ding Fu to ask Yao Tailai to treat him."

After hearing him say this, Su Nuan felt at ease to leave.

After returning to Duiyueju, Su Nuan took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, and ran to visit Ying Shu.

As expected, Mu Yunting asked someone to invite Imperial Physician Yao. At this time, Ying Shu was lying on the bed, and Imperial Physician Yao was checking his wounds.

What surprised Su Nuan was that Mu Yunting was also here. He was standing beside the bed, looking at Ying Shu with a thoughtful look.

Su Nuan did not disturb him when she saw this. She stood beside him silently and watched Doctor Yao bandage Ying Shu's wound.

"How is he injured?"

Mu Yunting asked Doctor Yao.

"Your Highness, the young master's wound is very deep, but his tendons and bones are not injured. I will go back and prepare some hemostatic and tissue-stimulating powder. Then boil a few doses of the medicine and he will be able to move around after ten days or half a month."

After hearing what Doctor Yao said, Su Nuan was relieved. No matter from which aspect, it was a good thing for Ying Shu to recover quickly.

At this time, Ying Shu struggled to sit up.

Doctor Yao hurriedly stopped him when he saw this. "Sir, please don't move. The bleeding has just stopped. If you move now, the blood flow will be accelerated and the hemostatic medicine on the wound will be washed away. Then the bleeding will not stop."

Ying Shu said: "Thank you, Doctor Yao, I have thick skin and flesh, I will be fine."

After saying this, he stood up from the bed despite Doctor Yao's obstruction, bowed to Mu Yunting, and then said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for inviting the doctor to treat my injuries. My injuries are no longer serious. I will take my leave now."

Mu Yunting said, "Your wound is still bleeding, so don't be in a hurry to leave. You were injured because you blocked the arrow for Concubine Xia. I should heal your wound before sending you back."

Su Nuan also thought that this was the right thing to do, so she agreed, "Yes, Ying Shu, don't refuse. Just stay here first. I'll have someone pass on a message to Mr. Yue. I'd feel bad if I let you leave like this."

"This... this is inappropriate. I am a humble commoner, how can I live in the prince's mansion?"

"Your Highness the Crown Prince has spoken, so don't refuse anymore."

After Su Nuan finished speaking, she turned around and winked at Cai Ya behind her. Cai Ya immediately understood and stepped forward to support Ying Shu and helped him back to bed.

At this time, Mu Yunting suddenly asked Ying Shu: "Have you seen anyone shooting arrows?"

"I have never seen it."

"Then how did you know that the arrow was going to be shot at Concubine Xia?"

"I saw that the second arrow almost hit Concubine Xia, and I was afraid that the thief would shoot another arrow, so I rushed over. I didn't expect that the thief would really shoot another arrow."

"Why did you block that arrow for Concubine Xia?" Mu Yunting continued to ask with a calm expression.

Su Nuan, like Ying Shu, was stunned when they heard this question.

After coming to his senses, Ying Shu replied, "Concubine Xia has helped me before, and she is also entrusting me with important tasks. She is my benefactor. When I see that she is in danger, I will naturally help her."

"You are grateful and repaying kindness. That's good." Mu Yunting praised. "Just rest and recover here. If you need anything, you can tell Ding the chief steward and he will prepare it for you."

After saying that, he turned around, took Su Nuan's hand, and said, "Come on, my beloved concubine, let's go back and let Ying Shu have a good rest."

This action was too intimate for Su Nuan, and she was a little uncomfortable with it. However, thinking that this was in front of outsiders and that Mu Yunting probably wanted to create an image of a loving wife, she cooperated obediently and followed Mu Yunting out of the room.

Sure enough, as soon as he came out, Mu Yunting let go of his hand.

Su Nuan felt a little depressed because she was just a tool.

"Let's go and see the assassin."

Mu Yunting's faint voice sounded again, and under the guidance of Manager Ding, he and Su Nuan entered another guest room.

There was a corpse lying on the floor of the room, the one that Su Nuan brought back.

The sharp arrow on the corpse's neck had not been pulled out yet. The arrow shot in from the back of the neck and pierced the throat. The force and angle were just right, which showed that the archer had superb skills.

"Your Highness, this person is dead. Should we keep the body here? It's hot this season. I'm afraid it will rot and get infested with insects in a few days."

"Take him out and bury him at night, then find someone who looks like him to live in, and then have the guards guard the room and not let anyone approach it."

Su Nuan suddenly thought of something and interrupted, "Write down anyone who tries to get close to here."

She had always suspected that there was an assassin's accomplice in the Prince's Mansion, and this was a good opportunity to find out the accomplice.

There is nothing good about a dead body. The reason why Mu Yunting came into this room was just to let people know that there was a "living person" living in this room, and that he was very important.

Now that his goal has been achieved, he will not linger any longer.

Su Nuan followed Mu Yunting closely and left the room.

The two of them walked one after the other in the Prince's Mansion. Su Nuan was so busy with her head down thinking about something that she didn't notice that Mu Yunting suddenly stopped. She couldn't stop in time and bumped into him in the chest.

"Do you have anything else to do with me?"
