Liu Zhang suddenly became frightened. On the one hand, he was afraid of the unfamiliar self who had resorted to all means to achieve his goal, to the point of wanting to kill people himself!
Secondly, if he had not heard her cry for help and stopped in time, an innocent person might have been drowned in the water.
It almost caused a disaster.
If Master Shen really died at his hands, then his daughter Jiang Rao would never forgive him in this life!
In Liu Zhang's impression, Master Shen was the kind of arrogant and domineering second prince who loved to show off. Almost all the young men and women in the capital had bullied and ridiculed him. Although he was effeminate, he would fight back.
It's a pity that he is a weakling with poor martial arts skills, yet he still wants to provoke others and can't even beat a girl.
Anyway, Liu Zhang looked down on men who hit girls. If they were not idiots, they would be nothing but assholes. Even A Rao had suffered a lot following him.
But now that he knew that Master Shen was a girl, he loved her and all of Shen Xu's previous behavior was explained. The good-for-nothing that his cousins had always bullied and mocked was actually a girl...
She had no martial arts skills, but she never bullied the weak or feared the strong. She would fight back without hesitation against anyone who provoked her, even if she was covered in bruises. It was more like she was standing up for others than bullying girls.
He actually misunderstood that such a brave, enthusiastic and responsible girl would bully A Rao and even wanted to kill her!
Liu Zhang couldn't help but gasp for the unfamiliar self. When did he become so impulsive and unconscious? He still felt like a thorn in his side and regretted it endlessly for destroying A Rao's martial arts.
But he doesn't know how to admit his mistakes or how to make amends, and now he keeps making mistakes.
"Please... Murong Yan... don't kill Brother Ye Fan..." Ye Wanqing closed her eyes tightly, tears streaming down her face in agony. Her voice was weak and her cries were intermittent.
"Brother Ye Fan...has always wanted to become a great general...How could you...cut off his finger..." She cried so hard that her shoulders trembled slightly and her facial features twisted together.
Liu Zhang was stunned, and suddenly realized that this prince disguised as a man must like General Ye.
That's why she had to investigate Miss Ye's murder, why she was beaten and cried at Miss Ye's funeral, and why she lost control and roared at Ye Qingshan...
He leaned over and gently patted Ye Wanqing's face, trying to wake her up: "Master Shen, Master Shen, wake up quickly."
But all she got in response was her confused murmur and moan. It was already summer, but she was shivering with cold. The situation was not optimistic.
He wanted to help her take off her wet clothes, but when his hand reached her collar, he didn't dare to do it.
After all, Prince Shen is a girl, and the aristocratic families attach great importance to the reputation of women.
He also wanted to marry Jiang Rao, so how could he be alone with Master Shen in a cave, naked and in an unclear state?
What if Marquis Tingnan holds him accountable for this matter? Or what if her father holds her accountable for this matter and is determined to tarnish her reputation?
Then how could he marry Jiang Rao?
Liu Zhang raised his hand and touched Ye Wanqing's forehead. The heat went straight into his palm. He was confused and at a loss.
She had such a high fever and was stabbed in the thigh. If she didn't get treatment, she would die.
However, the Beicheng Street Pier was full of Murong Yao's spies, and bringing the sick and confused Prince Shen with him would definitely expose his whereabouts. Murong Yan should be facing Murong Yao by now, so it would be difficult to contact him.
Moreover, with an identity like that of Prince Shen, if his daughter's identity is exposed, someone will definitely make a big fuss about it.
We have to find a way to take her back to the Marquis' Mansion for treatment!
Liu Zhang quickly regained his senses, picked up his half-damp clothes and mask, and walked out of the cave anxiously.
The only one who can take her back is someone from the Marquis' Mansion.
......
I don’t know how long it took.
Ye Wanqing felt her body growing heavier, and the sharp pain in her leg brought her back to consciousness. She struggled to her feet, dragging her injured leg laboriously to the edge of the fire.
Seeing that there was no one around, she forced herself to endure the soreness and heaviness that swept over her body and slowly took off her wet clothes. This slightly alleviated the feeling of coldness running through her back.
She loosened the corset that was hurting her ribs, but did not take it off. She was very careful to leave her undergarments on.
Ye Wanqing took a deep breath for a moment, and the dizziness in her head eased a lot, and her cloudy vision became much clearer. She looked around, and the end of the cave was in sight. The person who saved her had lit a fire, but did not stay at the scene, so she didn't know who it was.
It looks like she has been rescued, but no one knows where she is now.
She suddenly remembered the scene when she was kidnapped. Those people and Murong Yao were planning to extort money and murder the prince.
They also took Jiang Yu and A Rao hostage. She didn't see them at the scene and didn't know their situation. The more she thought about it, the more worried she became, fearing that they would be pushed into the water and almost drowned like she was!
And Brother Ye Fan was captured by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and had his fingers cut off. Will Murong Yan kill Ye Fan out of anger because he couldn't find her, and cut him into pieces as the letter said?
The more Ye Wanqing thought about it, the more scared she became. Worry and fear spread wildly in her mind.
We must stop this!
"Brother Jiang Yu...A Rao...Brother Ye Fan, wait for me..." She fumbled to get up from the ground, holding onto the wall and breathing heavily.
This illness came at a very inopportune moment, almost draining away all her strength. She rested for a long time, struggled to put on the half-damp clothes, and then slowly groped her way towards the dark entrance, feeling the wall along the edge of the cave.
With Xu Wanrong and her own father setting a precedent, Ye Wanqing's trust in Murong Yan began to gradually waver.
Ye Wanqing was terrified when she learned that Murong Yan had cut off her brother's finger without hesitation to threaten Murong Yao. The gentle and kind Crown Prince was not the person she usually saw behind the scenes.
She reached out to touch the wound on her leg. The severe pain made her mind much clearer. How painful it must be for a martial artist who dreams of becoming a general to have his finger cut off!
That was her brother Ye Fan, the one who had taken care of her since she was a child and didn't want her to suffer!
Some details and words suddenly flashed through my drowsy mind, and the seeds of doubt continued to sprout, growing wildly in my mind, taking root deeper and deeper.
Murong Yan had said that day that his motives for approaching Shen Xu were not pure. He wanted what Shen Xu had done, and he wanted to gain the support of the Southern Territory...
Fu Yi also said that the prince is not as simple as he looks.
Even Xu Wanrong and Murong Yao said that he was a fox who was good at acting and had excellent disguise.
It seemed as if all the people she used to trust had distanced themselves from her, and there seemed to be no one left who she could truly rely on.
The summer heat is scorching, but it can’t drive away the biting cold!
