Du Cheng'an said, "Then I'll go continue patrolling the city."

Xie Jingyan instructed, "The matter of the token must not be told to the Princess."

Du Cheng'an knew that his own mother and Prince Cheng were siblings, and if he told them, it would definitely reach Prince Cheng's ears.

Du Cheng'an nodded repeatedly, "I won't tell anyone."

Chen Feng saw him off at the mansion.

Over there, Doctor Tao was expelling the poison from Lu Cheng. When Lu Cheng woke up, he was pale and surprised to see Xie Jingyan. "How did I get here?"

Xie Jingyan said, "Du Cheng'an brought you here."

Lu Cheng said, "I'm so grateful to him today, otherwise I would be dead."

Du Cheng'an's martial arts skills were mediocre, not enough to impress Lu Cheng and the others, but no one dared to underestimate his archery skills. If Du Cheng'an hadn't shot two arrows at the man in black tonight, Lu Cheng wouldn't have even had a chance to fall off the roof; he would have died directly under the man in black's sword.

Xie Jingyan asked, "Are you sure that man in black is from Xiliang?"

Lu Cheng nodded weakly and said, "I tore the clothes on the right arm of the man in black. He had a tattoo on his right arm. Although it was dark at the time, I could still see it clearly. The tattoo was exactly the same as the one I saw in the case file of the Xizhou Dam when I went to the Ministry of Justice to find Xu Ji a few days ago..."

If Lu Cheng hadn't mentioned it, Shen Wan would have completely forgotten that the Xizhou Dam had been destroyed by the Xiliang people.

Because Prince Cheng intervened, the eldest prince and Xie Jingyin briefly reconciled, changing their stance from wanting to kill each other to protecting one another, and the matter was eventually dropped.

Prince Cheng secretly supported Xie Jingyin. If Prince Cheng had really colluded with Xiliang, it would have been entirely possible for Xiliang to blow up the Xizhou Dam and take the blame for Xie Jingyin. It was only because the Emperor investigated the Xizhou Dam bombing case and the Xizhou Dam embezzlement case separately that Prince Cheng's plan failed.

King Cheng was hiding his true intentions too well.

The deeper they dug, the more terrifying it became; heaven knows what King Cheng had done behind the scenes.

The thought that King Cheng could be so ruthless as to kill even his own queen sent chills down Shen Wan's spine.

Xie Jingyan said to Lu Cheng, "Your injuries are serious, so focus on recovering. We can discuss the rest once you've healed."

Dr. Tao nodded; if he said anything more, he would inevitably start cursing.

As a result, Lu Cheng said to Doctor Tao, "I'm getting married in three days. Will my injury ever heal?"

Doctor Tao said, "I am just a doctor, not a god."

Lu Cheng panicked, "The wedding invitations have already been sent out, I..."

"Is getting married more important, or is your life more important?" Doctor Tao was getting anxious.

Lu Cheng wanted to speak, but he was having trouble breathing.

Shen Wan hurriedly said, "Recovering from your injuries is the priority. I will talk to the Yun family and find someone to help you with the wedding. Once you are fully recovered, you can go on the wedding yourself."

That's all we can do.

Lu Cheng was annoyed. Why did he have to discover the man in black today when he was delivering wedding invitations? Otherwise, he could have postponed the wedding.

Lu Cheng felt weak and dizzy, and the pain in his waist was even more intense. He wanted to lie down, but then he fainted and lay back down.
