Duke Lu, wearing military uniform and with a gloomy face, pushed Qinghe aside, walked up to Lu Yingxue like a dragon and a tiger, and raised his big palm to slap her.

"evil creature!!!"

His chest heaved, and the veins on his neck bulged with red and blue due to anger, like a lion ready to kill.

Lu Yingxue staggered, and Xiao Churan reached out to help her.

In the blink of an eye, a hideous blue-black five-finger mark covered half of the bright face.

"Thank you."

Lu Yingxue thanked him and turned away.

While listening to the news, he assisted the two in arranging the people to search for Lu Ningshuang.

Xiao Churan has his own soldiers, and Lu Jianzhang has his own troops, both of which are visible armies. Although she has developed her power in private, she is better at gathering information.

The troops were divided into several teams and quickly dispersed in different directions.

Lu Jianzhang turned around with his hands behind his back, glared at Lu Yingxue fiercely, pointed at her and said:

"I'll settle the score with you when I get back!"

Lu Jianzhang found a teahouse nearby and sat down, and Xiao Churan followed him and sat on the second-floor platform facing the street.

The sky was overcast and wet snow was falling.

Xiao Churan leaned against the railing, coughing from time to time, disturbing the already irritable Lu Jianzhang.

"Prince Jin'an, you are weak, please go inside and warm yourself by the fire!"

Xiao Churan raised his eyebrows wearily and sneered:

"Duke Lu is as sincere as ever, and he doesn't even bother to flatter me."

He had two titles, one was King of Jin'an and the other was King Regent. Only the former was a real position with a complete fiefdom, while the latter was just a nominal position with no substance.

To be honest, he prefers the three words "Prince of Jin'an".

Because his unfortunate life was caused by that false reputation.

"When you figure out why you live, it won't be too late for you to come and pretend to be nice to me."

Lu Jianzhang didn't care about his ridicule at all. He drank the tea like a cow to suppress his inner irritability.

……

The Qiang envoys were assassinated and none of the entourage survived. The news of the prince's missing whereabouts quickly spread everywhere.

The officials were discussing the matter, and the princes had different thoughts.

Jing Shiyue, who was reading medical books in Tianlu Pavilion, was attracted by the noise in the Imperial Medical Bureau.

"What happened?"

He came out of the building, asked someone at random, and pointed at the medical staff who were rushing back and forth.

After the medical worker who assisted in the education performed the ceremony, he sighed in worry:

“The Qiang Kingdom’s envoys were assassinated, and there were heavy casualties in the Fuyun Street area, including many young men and women from high-ranking officials and noble families.

Now they are being placed in batches in the sick quarters. The Imperial Physician has ordered that officials above the rank of Imperial Physician go to the sick quarters (equivalent to health centers) for treatment. Make sure all the young men and young ladies are cured!"

Jing Shiyue waved his hand, and after the medical worker left, the messenger came.

"Chief Doctor Jing, the superior has ordered that you go to Fuyun Hospital to treat the injured immediately!"

When Jing Shiyue arrived, he was assigned to a group of second-generation rich people, one of whom was trampled to death by a horse's hooves.

"What are you standing there for, you quack! If you can't cure it, I'll bury you with it!"

It happened to be the playboy who stopped the Lu sisters. In order to prevent further injuries, the servants who were injured all over their bodies held his limbs tightly.

He was in so much pain that he could only curse.

Jing Shiyue glanced at his colleagues who were secretly watching the show, and checked the pulse of the dandy as usual.

"You are a bunch of useless people! You can't even protect your master. When I get back, I will ask my father to tear you all into pieces!"

The attendants shrank back in fear.

He started scolding the Lu sisters again.

"How dare those two blind girls from the Lu family be so ungrateful and let someone hit me?

A half-dead sickly person, an abandoned woman with a ruined reputation, given to me to play with... Oh, you quack! I'm going to chop off your dog head!"

The dude's face was twisted in pain, and he looked so ugly that he didn't look like a human.

Jing Shiyue suppressed his worries and murderous intent, called the medicine boy to help, and said expressionlessly:

"The injury is too severe. If you don't want to become paralyzed, you have to cut it off completely."

He adheres to the bottom line of a doctor and does not harm people's lives, but he can make the treatment good or bad.

Even though he had the skill of exquisite sewing, he refused to use it on animals.

Besides, he was the only one who had this skill. Other doctors, upon seeing this, had only one answer: to eliminate the disease completely.

You bullied the second young lady, boy, you will be a eunuch for the rest of your life!

"Quack! Quack! Get out of here! Get out of here now! I don't want you to treat me! You are a waste! I am the youngest son of Marquis Changqing. Go and call the imperial physician to me now!"

Jing Shiyue and his colleagues who were watching the show were speechless.

A poor young son of Marquis Changqing wants to order the highest official of the Imperial Medical Bureau around?

ill!

"Since the young master cannot be cured, I will withdraw."

Let go of the desire to help others and cherish the fate of others!

Jing Shiyue shook his head, sprinkled some medicine powder on him to stop the bleeding, and then left him alone.

……

Lights were lit one after another in various places in Fengdu. The lights were so bright that it looked like a unique Milky Way on earth.

Fuyun Lane was still blocked. After the Dali Temple had surveyed the scene, runners from Shuntian Prefecture came with brooms and buckets and started washing the street.

The assassins hacked to death twenty-one people, forty-eight died from frightened horses, and countless others were injured.

This bloody case cast a dark cloud over the upcoming New Year's Eve.

More than one horse in the delegation went crazy, and almost half of them were frightened and galloped in all directions.

"Isn't the person behind this afraid of retribution? The chaos they created to kill the prince of the Qiang Kingdom is too great!"

"We won't be on duty today. Let's go home right after we finish our shower. The assassins haven't been caught yet!"

"Yes, let's get to work."

……

Lu Ningshuang was awakened by the pain, and when she opened her eyes she saw a pair of eyes with faint green light at the head of the bed.

"You finally woke up."

The man spoke hoarsely, staring at her with a pale face, his exposed upper body wrapped in bandages.

The area from the right collarbone down to the chest up was soaked in blood.

Baili Lin helped Lu Ningshuang up, his eyes full of worry, but he said jokingly:

"I didn't faint even though I was covered in wounds, but the Second Miss is still fainted. Is this the opposite of Tian Gang?"

Lu Ningshuang leaned on the soft pillow and smiled gloomily:

"You didn't use me to block the sword and protected me. Should I thank you? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have suffered this disaster."

"Awu——"

Baili Lin shouted outside.

A woman wearing a purple foreign dress, silver jewelry, and tattoos on her face walked in and treated Lu Ningshuang in a strange way.

Baili Lin said with a cynical smile:

"Even if I didn't take you away, they wouldn't let you go. Second Miss, you really should thank me."

A Wu shook his head and nodded at Baili Lin, then walked out in silence.

Baili Lin moved to sit next to Lu Ningshuang, picked her up and walked out.

"Let's go, eat! And mourn the loss of our chance to be a pair of desperate lovers."

Lu Ningshuang rolled her eyes and let him carry her out.

When she saw the bugs on the table, she regretted it.

Before he could slap her, Baili Lin grabbed her and kissed her. After he had laughed enough, he ordered:

"Awu, take those two away. Our second young lady is very timid."
