Chapter 136 How to catch the assassin!

Shangguan Lin glanced at Su Ting and saw that he didn't really want to take care of his daughter.

Finally, he cleared his throat and said, "Su Lanxin is still young, but she is the daughter of the criminal Xu, and was taken to the palace as a maid!"

At this time, on the other side, Mei County.

Liao Changning was treating a patient's wound when Tang Luo suddenly rushed in.

Her voice was full of panic, "Oh no, oh no, Sister Liao!"

Liao Changning turned around upon hearing this, his eyebrows slightly wrinkled.

"What's wrong?"

Tang Luo gasped and said: "General Lou, he has been infected with the disease..."

"Now I have a high fever and it won't go away..."

Liao Changning's heart suddenly stopped.

"What, what?"

Liao Changning spoke in a low voice, with a look of disbelief on his face.

Changqing is in such good health, how could he be infected with the disease?

Liao Changning suddenly fell into panic and his voice began to stammer.

"Quick, take me to find him."

Tang Luo nodded and quickly took Liao Changning there.

The two of them hurriedly arrived in front of Lou Changqing's bed.

Liao Changning approached with uncertain steps, and when her eyes fell on the bed, the corners of her eyes instantly turned red.

I saw the handsome young man who always had a smile on his face.

Now he is barely breathing, with cold sweat all over his forehead...

Liao Changning's lips trembled as he called softly, "Changqing... Changqing..."

Hearing this familiar voice, Lou Changqing slowly raised his eyelids.

Seeing the gentle and beautiful face in front of him, he slightly curled his lips and spoke in a hoarse voice.

"You, you're here..."

Liao Changning couldn't hold back his tears. "Why didn't you tell me that you were so seriously ill?"

Lou Changqing cleared his throat and turned his eyes away feeling guilty.

Liao Changning pursed his lips and looked at the servant beside him.

Without her saying anything, the servant immediately bowed and reported.

"Miss Liao, the general suddenly had a fever this morning. He didn't tell you anything because he was afraid you would worry..."

"But by nightfall, the general's fever had not subsided, but got worse. I wanted to look for you, but I only found Miss Tang Luo..."

Liao Changning nodded, and she knew what happened next.

Tang Luo found her and brought her to Lou Changqing.

Liao Changning looked at Lou Changqing's face which was flushed with fever and asked with slightly wrinkled eyebrows.

"Has the general taken the medicine?"

The attendant nodded when he heard this, "I drank it. It was made according to the prescription that the young lady had written for other patients."

"But for some reason, the general still has a high fever."

Liao Changning frowned, and immediately turned over Lou Changqing's wrist and began to feel his pulse.

Soon, her brows relaxed and her voice became much lighter.

"He is not infected with any disease, but just has a common cold. I will write a new prescription for him."

Liao Changning walked to the table, picked up a pen, wrote down the prescription and handed it to the attendant.

Tang Luo also followed him out tactfully, saying that he wanted to help boil the medicine.

In a blink of an eye, Lou Changqing and Liao Changning were the only two people left in the room.

At this time, Lou Changqing's mind gradually recovered.

He pursed his lips, his voice apologetic.

"It's all my fault. According to the plan, we were supposed to leave for Beijing tomorrow..."

In recent days, the epidemic has been clearly under control.

Lord Lu plans to return to Beijing tomorrow.

I didn’t expect him to suddenly fall ill, and I don’t know if it will delay his trip…

The more he thought about it, the more guilty he felt.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

Liao Changning frowned when he heard this, "Don't say that."

She subconsciously reached out and covered Lou Changqing's thin lips.

When she felt the wet and warm touch on her palm, her face immediately blushed and she quickly withdrew her hand.

Lou Changqing was also a little shy, and his face turned even redder.

At this moment, someone knocked on the wooden door from outside.

Liao Changning immediately went to open the door and found that the person who came was Lord Lou.

Lord Lu looked at Liao Changning nervously.

He asked in a low voice: "Miss Liao, is the general okay? I heard that he accidentally contracted the disease?"

As soon as he heard the news that General Lou was seriously ill, he rushed over immediately, fearing that something had really happened to him.

You must know that General Lou is the younger brother of Empress Chenfei!

Now the Empress Chen is the most favored. If anything happens to General Lou, he will definitely be in big trouble.

Liao Changning chuckled, "Don't worry, Lord Lou, General Lou just has a fever due to a cold, it's nothing serious, he just needs to take some medicine."

Lord Luo then let out a long sigh of relief, "It's good that everything is fine, it's good that everything is fine."

His black veil hat was also saved.

Lord Lu followed Liao Changning into the room and walked to the bed.

Lord Lou stroked his beard and sighed, "Since the general is seriously ill, it would be better to change the itinerary and return to the capital in a few days."

Lou Changqing was lying on the bed and immediately shook his head when he heard this.

His voice was a little weak, but still very clear.

"No, I'll just take a few doses of medicine. The time and plan for returning to Beijing were set early in the morning, so it's not time to change it."

He also wanted to see Sui Sui and his parents as soon as possible.

Lord Lou frowned, "But, General, your illness..."

Liao Changning said at this time: "Let me take care of the general along the way. I will definitely take good care of him and will never let anything happen to him."

Lou Changqing was also surprised. He was stunned at first, and then he immediately became excited.

Ah, it’s worth it to have Changning take care of him personally!

Make a killing!

Lou Changqing was so sick that his cheeks were red, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

This scene was so bizarre that even Lord Lou was stunned.

He stammered, "Is General Lou crazy? He's burned like this... and he's still smiling!"

Liao Changning: …

It does look a bit abnormal...

Capital city, Bihua Palace.

Shangguan Lin came to have dinner with Chen Fei and Shangguan Sui as usual.

With a look of heartache on her face, Concubine Chen personally served Shangguan Sui a bowl of bird's nest and snow pear soup.

She placed the jade bowl in front of Shangguan Sui.

She sighed with some fear: "Xu's matter is finally resolved. I never thought it would be her."

Shangguan Lin put down the jade spoon in his hand and reached out to hold the hand of Concubine Chen beside him.

"I failed to protect Shanshan this time. I will never let this happen again."

The Concubine Chen also nodded very gently.

"I believe in Your Majesty."

Shangguan Sui, who was standing aside, pursed his lips and stared at the two people's clasped hands.

[Good boy! You actually took the opportunity to touch your mother's hand! ! ]

Shangguan Lin: ...

What a kid! I'm your real father!

Shangguan Lin cleared his throat and immediately changed the subject, saying, "I received a report today that Miss Liao and Changqing will be returning to the capital soon, and will arrive in Beijing in about three days."

Shangguan Sui's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but clapping his hands.

"Sister Liao and Uncle are coming back, great!"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

A few days ago, Chang Qing left with the team heading to Mei County, leaving only a letter.

But my parents were scared to death, and now they are finally back.

After finishing his meal, Shangguan Sui took a walk outside the palace to help digest his food.

His eyes turned and he suddenly thought of an idea.

She raised her little face and shouted toward the roof: "Master! Master!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Changkong flew down and appeared in front of Shangguan Sui in the blink of an eye.

Shangguan Sui's big eyes flashed with excitement.

"Master, I have an idea!"

Yan Kongshan was a little confused, "What can we do?"

Shangguan Sui's eyes sparkled, and he said in a crisp voice, "How to catch the assassin from the post station last time!"

Yan Kongshan frowned slightly, "What method?"

Shangguan Sui chuckled and slowly explained.

"The assassin was willing to risk being discovered and sneak into the Royal Inn in the middle of the night to assassinate me. He wanted to kill me so badly that he would definitely not give up."

"It's just that the palace is heavily guarded, and you've been protecting me closely, so he hasn't taken any action."

After saying this, she paused, and a cunning look flashed across her beautiful almond-shaped eyes.

"So, we have to deliberately create opportunities for him!"
