When Xu Xingyin heard that something had happened to Chen, he no longer cared about Aunt Liu.

He asked the maid to lead the way and went straight to Chen's residence.

Chen was indeed seriously ill.

He was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and his face pale. Several doctors stood beside him and shook their heads.

According to the doctor, Chen developed chest pain due to the grief and anger she felt upon learning the news that Xu Xingyin had fallen off a cliff.

After dragging on for so long, we are now running out of energy.

Ordinary doctors are helpless, unless it is Mr. Huaigu, who is known as the Medical Saint.

Unfortunately, Xu Xingyin actually knew a Mr. Huaigu.

Jing Zhichen seemed to call the white-robed doctor who treated Xu Xingyin last time nostalgic.

Although it may not be the Medical Saint, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, Xu Xingyin is willing to give it a try.

What's more, with Jing Zhichen's status, there must be many talented people around him.

There is always hope, right?

Xu Xingyin had just returned to the capital and his foundation was still shallow. Moreover, he was surrounded by wolves, so it was not a good time to show off.

He had no choice but to find a way to send a message to Lu Xu, and then he quietly went out after nightfall.

An hour later, in the north of the city.

The man in the dark blue brocade robe leaned against the wall, letting his robe flutter in the cold wind. He was handsome, with a pair of phoenix eyes gently closed in the moonlight. The gold lines on the pattern of the brocade robe sparkled, making him look as if he were glowing.

"Lu Xu!"

Xu Xingyin lowered his voice and raised the blueprint in his hand, "Are you sure there's no problem?"

"nature."

Lu Xu responded nonchalantly, turned his head to look at the wall behind him and asked Xu Xingyin, "Are you ready?"

"Okay, okay..."

Before he could finish the rest of his sentence, Xu Xingyin was thrown directly into the other side of the wall by Lu Xu, and the unsuspecting person was caught off guard.

But she didn't dare to cry out in pain, so she could only cover her badly fallen butt and curse inwardly.

"Son of a bitch!"

The bastard outside is Xu Xingyin’s bad friend of several years.

Lu Xu, son of the prefect of Jiangning.

Governor Lu has only one son, Lu Xu, and he has taken care of him like the apple of his eye since he was a child.

He was even more concerned about Lu Xu's future, and smoothed over countless connections, and finally got this guy into the Jinyiwei he had always dreamed of.

Although Lu Xu is a bit smooth-talking, he is an extremely righteous person. He has dreamed of being a hero who punishes evildoers since he was a child.

However, after joining the Royal Guard, he was not successful. He only did miscellaneous tasks every day and never came into contact with any core cases.

Fortunately, the Jinyiwei's database is very complete, so it is not difficult to find out Mr. Huaigu's whereabouts.

The house where Mr. Huaigu lives is quite exquisite.

Red eaves and heavy tiles, golden nails and jade doors, carved beams and painted rafters, jade pillars and silver doors.

Even the decorations that one sees are not ordinary. They are in no way inferior to those in the imperial palace.

After all, he is someone close to Jing Zhichen and is very generous.

Xu Xingyin sighed as she followed the map Lu Xu gave her.

After turning a few corridors, I heard footsteps coming from the front, and it sounded like there were quite a few people.

Before Xu Xingyin could react, he saw the wooden door next to him open.

Then, she was pulled into the room by a strong force.

This is an extremely luxurious house.

The smooth white marble floor emits a cool white light under the lamplight, hazy mist is rising from the layers of gauze curtains, and the faint scent of herbs lingers at the tip of the nose.

Jing Zhichen, who had not been seen for a few days, suddenly appeared in front of him. He had a tall and straight figure, and a dark brocade robe loosely worn over his undershirt.

The corners of her ink-black robe fluttered freely in the gauze curtain, and the golden crane crown in her hair was dazzling.

"Why is your highness here?"

"After all, he didn't climb over the wall to get in."

"..."

Xu Xingyin was speechless. Jing Zhichen was more pleasing to the eye when he didn't speak.

Jing Zhichen raised his eyebrows and was about to speak when he heard the sound of uniform footsteps coming from outside, so he pulled Xu Xingyin and walked into the gauze curtain.

"Just cooperate, we'll talk about your business later."

After he finished speaking, Xu Xingyin was pulled into the gauze curtain by the man.

There was actually a pool of spring water hidden among the layers of gauze curtains. Skilled craftsmen had specially brought natural hot springs inside, and all you could see was the gurgling spring water and the hazy mist.

A lot of medicinal herbs were soaked in the pool water, dyeing the entire pool a light red.

Jing Zhichen grabbed the vase on the cabinet and with a burst of internal force, the bouquet of flowers fell apart, leaving only a bunch of flower stems.

Flower petals flew into the pool, completely covering the medicinal spring.

With a splash, Xu Xingyin was dragged and jumped into the water.

Before I could react, I saw Jing Zhichen pulling off his outer shirt, and his white pajamas were torn half open.

It hung loosely on his body, revealing his delicate collarbone.

"You...wu..."

Xu Xingyin was so frightened that her eyes widened. Just as she was about to speak, Jing Zhichen covered her mouth and pressed her against the wall of the pool.

"Cooperate well."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was roughly kicked open from outside.

The well-trained guards filed in and went straight inside.

If such an erotic scene were seen by others, his life would be over, Xu Xingyin thought.

Jing Zhichen moved quickly. Before those people passed through the last layer of gauze, he grabbed a large brocade robe and covered Xu Xingyin with it.

Even the head was wrapped tightly.

Then he looked at the guards who had broken in and shouted angrily.

"Be bold!"

The man stood in the pool with his clothes disheveled, and the woman screamed in panic. She was wrapped up so tightly that not even a hair could be seen.

The two of them were entangled in a half-hugging, half-leaning posture, and the flowers in the pond added a touch of charm to this affectionate scene.

The captain of the guards who led the charge in looked embarrassed, knelt on one knee and clasped his fists to explain.

"I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I just received a tip-off that you were attacked by thieves, so I rushed in. I hope Your Highness will forgive me!"

"Get out!"

Jing Zhichen seemed not to have listened to the other people's explanations at all. He was only focused on protecting the woman in his arms, looking upset that a good thing had been ruined.

The guards quickly ran out of the door and closed the door for them very tactfully.

I wanted to leave but was afraid of being held accountable, so in the end I could only stand not too far away in a corridor and wait.

As soon as the door rang, Xu Xingyin pulled open his coat and looked at Jing Zhichen again, his eyes wide open.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier about this way of helping me?"

Jing Zhichen put on his clothes slowly and glanced at Xu Xingyin, seeming to be disgusted and helpless.

"Why? Do you think anyone can look at my body?"

"..."

Xu Xingyin was extremely speechless. Who would care to look at his body?

Who would have thought that as soon as my eyes fell on him, I could see the man's white chest clearly.

Xu Xingyin felt his cheeks burning as if on fire. He hurriedly pushed Jing Zhichen away and took two steps back.

Unexpectedly, Jing Zhichen, who was originally standing upright, snorted lightly.

There was a blood stain on the pure white pajamas, and even Xu Xingyin's hands were stained red by the blood.

"You...you are injured?"
