Therefore, even though all the property had not been transferred, His Highness the Second Prince found more than one million taels of silver in the home of the Prefect of Huangzhou.

Keep in mind that he was just a prefect; where did he get so much silver? The corruption and filth behind it are unimaginable.

"Don't worry, I will definitely keep my promise to you."

As the Fourth Prince spoke, he gently lifted Hu Qinqin's chin with his finger.

“I naturally believe what the Fourth Prince has said. I have come here only to remind the Fourth Prince that Your Highness must be careful of Li Youran.”

"Li Youran is just a woman, how could she possibly interfere with my affairs? Don't worry, the people I sent this time are all experts, they will definitely not fail."

The Fourth Prince did not take Hu Qinqin's words to heart, and instead told her about his arrangements.

"Instead of sending someone to kidnap Doctor Feng, we should use his family to blackmail him and force him to come with us."

Hu Qinqin's idea was to directly kidnap Doctor Feng and make him serve the Fourth Prince.

However, the Fourth Prince did not think so. After all, the Second Prince was able to get Doctor Feng to serve him, so there must be some affection involved. If it was just a matter of threatening his life, Doctor Feng might not agree.

Therefore, His Highness the Fourth Prince has sent someone to bring Doctor Feng's mother, who is currently being held in Tongzhou, which is under His Highness's jurisdiction.

He will make his move tonight, sending men to Liaocheng where the Second Prince is located to kidnap Doctor Feng, threatening his mother's life in the process. He doesn't believe the Second Prince can turn the tables.

"You Ran, go back and rest quickly. Leave the rest to me."

Wu Yong held up the torch and spoke to Li Youran.

It was already late at night, and another batch of grain and vegetables had arrived outside the city. Wu Yong really didn't want Li Youran to stay up any longer, so he took on the responsibility of distributing the goods and told Li Youran to go back to the mansion to rest.

Liaocheng is now under complete lockdown, and the government is responsible for purchasing all the firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea that the people need.

Today was only the first purchase, and it cost nearly 10,000 taels of silver, just for some very ordinary food.

"Let's distribute the supplies first."

Li Youran said with a frown.

One after another, horse-drawn carts laden with goods entered the city.

Li Youran was in charge of counting and distributing all the goods, while Wu Yong was responsible for delivering the packaged goods to each household.

"Princess."

"Young Master Feng, is there anything I can help you with so late?"

Li Youran was busy at work when she heard someone call her. She turned around while wiping her sweat, only to find it was Feng Yu.

"Do you need any help?"

Tonight, His Highness the Second Prince hosted a welcome banquet for Feng Yu, but Feng Yu did not see Li Youran at the banquet, so he was distracted the whole time.

As soon as the banquet ended, he hurriedly sought out a servant to inquire where You Ran had gone.

Before Li Youran could reply, Feng Yu jumped off his horse and joined her in distributing the supplies.

After a busy day, Li Youran returned to the county government office late at night. With Xiao Hong's help, she quickly wiped the sweat off her body and lay down on the bed, falling into a deep sleep.

She had a dream in which Tang Lei caught her with Feng Yu, and then left without looking back. No matter how much she shouted, Tang Lei didn't respond.

"Tang Lei..."

Li Youran suddenly woke up and sat up. He looked at the pitch-black night, wiped the sweat from his brow, and thought to himself, thankfully it was just a dream.

She hurriedly put on her shoes, got out of bed, sat at the table, and poured herself a glass of slightly cool water.

Am I overthinking things?

Recalling the dream she had just had, Li Youran felt a little guilty.

"If you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear."

Li Youran said to herself, trying to comfort herself.

But these words had no effect on comforting her. Li Youran tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. She simply got dressed, sat in the pavilion in the courtyard, and looked up at the moon.

When a person is quiet, their attention is very focused. Li Youran suddenly saw several dark figures flash by and run towards the courtyard where Doctor Feng lived.

Without thinking twice, she shouted for help and ran towards the courtyard where Dr. Feng was.

"Thief! Thief!"

When Li Youran arrived, Doctor Feng was hiding from the men in black who were coming towards him.

Although Doctor Feng was highly skilled in medicine, his martial arts skills were really lacking, even worse than Li Youran's. So he kept throwing stools and teapots at the man in black.

Just as she was about to be grabbed by the man in black, Li Youran leaped into the air and kicked at the man in black.

The man in black was focused on dodging when Doctor Feng threw a chair at him. He didn't notice Li Youran and was struck in the chest by her, falling to the ground with a thud.

When Doctor Feng looked at Li Youran, he felt as if she were radiating golden light. He saw her land on the ground with elegant and nimble movements.

He sighed inwardly, thinking that even a fairy descending to earth couldn't compare.

But before Doctor Feng could finish praising Li Youran, a man in black rushed towards her.

Doctor Feng's first reaction was to get up and rush towards Li Youran to block the sword flying towards her.

"careful."

It wasn't that Li Youran wanted a beauty to save the hero; it was just an instinctive reaction. She hurriedly pulled Doctor Feng over.

Just as she was about to dodge the arrow, it pierced through her left arm, drawing blood.
