When Feng Chengyin noticed that there were other people coming behind him, a hint of joy flashed through his heart. He hoped that it was his uncle who had received the news and rushed over.

With the addition of Yu Jiyan and the other two, although they still had little chance of winning against those mysterious masters, after nearly an hour of hard fighting, they finally rescued Feng Chengyin.

The group fought and retreated until they reached the main road at the end of the alley. Yu Jiyan took out a smoke bomb from his waist that his sister had given him before she left and threw it at the mysterious masters who were chasing them relentlessly.

After a muffled sound, the entire alley was suddenly filled with white smoke, which at least blocked the killers' sight.

"go!"

Shen Zhinan just glanced at Yu Jiyan in surprise, then whispered to everyone, and immediately a group of people hurriedly left here under the cover of night.

Although they rescued Feng Chengyin, the faces of several people were not looking good. Tonight, not even half of the people they brought out came back alive.

Feng Chengyin originally had five or six people left, but after the desperate battle just now, only three were left. Ying Shiwu was the most seriously injured, and no one knew whether he could survive...

The group did not return home, but came to an inconspicuous small courtyard.

After carefully observing his surroundings, Li Haoting knocked on the seemingly dilapidated courtyard door three times and two times.

After a moment, the door of the courtyard was opened from the inside. Shen Zhinan was surprised again for a moment. The person who opened the door was Yu Jizhen, a famous talent in Fengdu City.

He would not be surprised at all if Yu Ji did something out of line at the banquet. After all, that guy had been a restless person since he was a child.

However, Master Yu of the Taifu Mansion had been criticized by great scholars since he was a child as someone who would become another "gifted saint" in the future. No one expected that he would be involved in today's events.

But if you think about it, you will understand. After all, your cousin's fiancée is Yu Jizhen's biological sister. Even if he sees the feelings for his own sister, he will not stand by and watch his cousin die.

Then I thought about Yu Jiyan's stubborn mind, and today's incident must have been the idea of ​​Yu Jizhen, who is as cunning as a fox.

I just don't know who reported the news to them...

The group entered the main house in the courtyard, and there was actually someone waiting inside. It was Zhou Ting, the son of the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau who had been living in the Taifu Mansion.

"Quick! Help them lie down." Zhou Ting stood up immediately when he saw the people who were most seriously injured.

Several people were helped to lie on the beds nearby. Now they could no longer care about the etiquette between the emperor and his subjects. Perhaps in the eyes of doctor Zhou Ting, the injured were more important than anything else.

Although some of the people brought by Yu Jiyan and his companions were injured, those who managed to make it back alive only had minor injuries. The most seriously injured were the Fourth Prince Feng Chengyin and his companions.

"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince has been poisoned!" After a while, Zhou Ting withdrew his hand with a grim expression and said to everyone.

At this time, Feng Chengyin had already fainted, and the wound on his chest had turned purple, and the color was still slowly spreading throughout his body.

A hint of solemnity flashed across Yu Jizhen's eyes. "Doctor Zhou, can you cure this poison?"

The others also held their breath and looked at Zhou Ting eagerly.

Zhou Ting was destined to disappoint everyone. He shook his head regretfully, "I can't even tell what kind of poison this is..."

After hearing Zhou Ting's words, everyone in the room felt depressed. Yu Jizhen asked again, "Is this poison life-threatening? How long can he hold on?"

Zhou Ting once again placed his hand on Feng Chengyin's pulse. After a while, the expression on his face improved a little, but he was still very solemn.

"He won't die immediately, but if we can't find the antidote, I'm afraid even if my father and I work together to suppress him, we can only let His Highness live for a year or two..."

Yu Jizhen's heart sank deeper and deeper. For a moment, the house was as quiet as a chicken, and a heavy atmosphere enveloped the whole house.

This was a tough time for Yu Jiyan, who had been winking at his elder brother frantically. His eyes almost cramped, but his good elder brother seemed to be blind and didn't even look at him.

Yu Jiyan: “…” Forget it, let’s rest our eyes for a while. After all, this cheap future brother-in-law is not going to die immediately…

"We must not let anyone know that the master was injured and poisoned!" Ying Zhou had been holding on for a breath, but now he spoke weakly.

Shen Nanzhi frowned, "Why? If I don't tell the emperor and aunt about my cousin's current situation, what if something happens to my cousin..." Having said this, Shen Nanzhi stopped talking, knowing that what he said was inappropriate.

After pursing his lips, he continued, "Besides, there must be some rare medicinal herbs in the palace. What if there is the antidote that my cousin needs?"

Ying Zhou gritted his teeth and said, "No! The master's affairs cannot be known to anyone, not even the Queen, and certainly not the Emperor..."

"Cough... cough cough cough..." Perhaps because the emotions just now were too intense, Ying Zhou started coughing violently.

Yu Jizhen immediately handed over a glass of water and said, "Speak slowly, there are no outsiders here."

After drinking the water, Yingzhou calmed down for a while, and his breathing finally stabilized. Zhou Ting was really afraid that he would faint from excitement again, so he took out a pill from the small medicine box beside him with a pained heart.

"Tsk, eat this first, you're getting a bargain." He had 'tricked' these out of Hua girl with great difficulty, there were only five of them! !

The reason why Zhou Ting stayed in the Taifu Mansion was that the Zhou and Yu families had been friends for generations, but when it came to his generation, he didn't like the intrigues in the palace so he didn't want to enter the palace to become an imperial physician.

Secondly, he was obsessed with medicine and had never married or had children even though he was over thirty years old. When his old father saw him, he started to scold him, saying that he was an unfilial son and wanted to make their Zhou family extinct.

Zhou Ting was extremely annoyed, but what could he do as a son?

I can only bear it, and stay away from my old father. As long as my father has fewer opportunities to meet me, I can get scolded less, right?

Therefore, Zhou Ting, after learning his family's ancestral medical skills better than his master since he was a teenager, stayed in the Taifu Mansion and became the Zhou family physician of the Taifu Mansion.

However, it was also because he often lived in the Taifu Mansion that, by chance, he knew that Yu Menghua and a little maid beside her were also good at making medicine, and there were some prescriptions that even a medical geek like him didn’t know!

Yu Menghua: “…” You are the one who is most suitable to live in the hidden medical sect, but the hidden medical sect does not accept people with family training, haha.

Sure enough, the "life-saving" medicine that Yu Menghua left for Zhou Ting was very useful. After swallowing the medicine, Ying Zhou could clearly feel that he was in much better spirits than before.
