After all that, Yun Duoduo started to wonder if she was an alien being being subjected to live research by this group of highly skilled medical professionals employed by the royal family.

Seeing the satisfied and gratified expressions on the faces of the imperial physicians, Yun Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief.

"Princess, you are truly blessed. In my opinion, there is nothing seriously wrong with your health!" The elderly imperial physician with a white beard, who had been the first to speak, said with a smile, stroking his beard.

"Yes, Your Highness is of noble birth. I have a secret prescription here. I guarantee that Your Highness will recover even better if you use it..." The middle-aged male imperial physician took out a prescription from his sleeve.

"Thank you for your help, sirs."

Ah Xiang could tell that Yun Duoduo wasn't in a good mood, so she smiled and thanked her, leading the imperial physicians outside.

Yun Duoduo finally had some peace and quiet. She looked out the window at the sheets and clothes hanging on the line, swaying in the wind, and suddenly felt that the peace she was in was somewhat unreal.

It seems something important has been overlooked...

[By the way, Western Chu.]

Why is that crazy Xijing so quiet?

After escaping from Western Chu, aside from being pursued by Zuo Guitang's men on the way back, nothing much went wrong.

"This isn't like that crazy guy at all!!"

After several encounters with Xi Jing, Yun Duoduo could sense that he was the kind of person who would not give up until he achieved his goal. The news that he was going to marry her had spread like wildfire, but now there was no news at all, which was completely out of character for him.

"Duo'er, how are you?!" Yun Duoduo was thinking when a familiar voice came from outside the door.

Ah Xiang was exchanging pleasantries and expressing her gratitude to the imperial physicians carrying medicine boxes at the door when she heard the commotion outside. She quickly made way for Sun Huohuo to come in.

Sun Huohuo carried bottles and jars and walked in with some difficulty.

"Second fire?"

"It's been a while since I've seen you." Yun Duoduo turned to look at Sun Huohuo, and what she saw really startled her.

Sun Huohuo looked dejected, completely unlike his usual energetic and spirited self who was always ready to conquer the world.

He had a large, raised red lump on his forehead, a scar near the corner of his mouth, and swollen eyes with two huge dark circles.

Half of his hair was singed, and he looked like he had escaped from the underworld.

"Erhuo, why is your face all bruised and swollen?"

"How did you end up looking like this? You look like a demon who escaped from hell."

"Don't frighten the maids of my Fu Shuang Palace."

Yun Duoduo covered her mouth in surprise and quickly pointed to the group of imperial physicians standing there, saying, "The imperial physicians haven't left yet, let's take a look at you quickly, you can use any medicine in the palace!"

"Go ahead and get whatever you want, including Ganoderma lucidum, deer antler, and Tian Shan snow lotus!"

"You're not good-looking to begin with. If you get all these injuries and become even uglier, then no one will want to marry you!" Yun Duoduo said with great distress, deeply worried about his future.

"I've already treated my wound myself. Do you have any good medicine for treating wounds and scars? Please bring it to me quickly!"

"It would be best if it were readily available. The physicians in my household would never use your deer antler and snow lotus, which would be a waste of good stuff."

Sun Huohuo grinned, his face covered in injuries, and the smile made him look even more ferocious.

"Ouch, damn it, that hurts like hell!"

The smile aggravated the wounds on his lips and eyes, causing him to slap his thigh in pain.

Yun Duoduo suddenly noticed that Sun Huohuo's left sleeve was empty and was swaying back and forth.

"Erhuo, what happened to your arm?!"

Yun Duoduo turned pale with fright, ran to Sun Huohuo, and suddenly grabbed his sleeve and squeezed it.

[He's lost an arm?!]

Who did this? It's incredibly vicious!

If someone is injured, she can help treat them, but if their arms or legs are damaged and they need prosthetics, that would be much more difficult.

"Oh no, Erhuo, you're not exactly good-looking, and now you're missing an arm or a leg. What are you going to do now?"

Yun Duoduo took a step back in surprise, feeling a chill run down her spine, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head.

Sun Huohuo was stunned for a moment, looking at the hand that was tugging at her sleeve, and said helplessly, "Duo'er, are you blind? My hand is right here!"

Sun Huohuo shook his two hands that were carrying the things.

"I got too hot halfway through the journey and wanted to take off my outer robe, but I didn't have a free hand, so I only took off half of it."

"You, you really scared me to death!"

Yun Duoduo took a closer look and found that it was true; both of her childhood friend's hands were still there, and she was finally relieved.

"And another thing, Duo'er, if you say I'm ugly again, I'll turn on you!" Sun Huohuo glared at Yun Duoduo.

Sun Huohuo walked to the table and sat down, placing the bottles and jars he was carrying on the table: "This is strong liquor brewed by my father's family. When your wound hurts, take a sip, and the burning sensation will come on, and you won't feel the pain anymore."

Yun Duoduo looked at the wine on the table with curiosity. She opened the cork of a brown wine jar, and the pungent smell almost made her faint.

"This smell is too strong!" Yun Duoduo touched her nose and ran to the window to get some fresh air.

"Erhuo, I have no wounds on my body." Yun Duoduo stretched out her arms and legs for him to see.

"Hmm? I heard before that you were being chased and killed, and then you sprained your ankle and got poisoned."

Sun Huohuo looked at her carefully and found that she indeed had no wounds on her body, and her face seemed to be much rounder than before.

"Don't talk about me, how did you get yourself into this state?"

Sun Huohuo touched a large, red, swollen bump on his forehead, then touched a cut on his shoulder, wincing in pain and sweating profusely.

"I don't know who I offended, but I've been being chased and attacked one after another these past few days!"

"I didn't dare to sleep at night either. None of the guards in the manor were any good. The assassin easily sneaked into my room and beat me up. Luckily, I wasn't a heavy sleeper, so I survived."

Sun Huohuo sighed and looked at Yun Duoduo again: "I thought you and I were in the same boat, but I never expected you to be doing so well."

"A world where only I am injured has been achieved."

Sun Huohuo pouted, looking very aggrieved.

"Pursuit?"

Who's chasing you? Do you have any leads?

Sun Huohuo shook his head helplessly, "Assassins have all sorts of techniques. Some use swords, some use knives, and some even use axes like me!"

"Isn't that infuriating?"

Sun Huohuo scratched his head, utterly baffled. He was usually well-behaved and hadn't offended anyone, so how had he gotten himself into this deadly trouble?!
