Upon hearing this, Emperor Zhaojing's expression softened considerably, but he also became worried. "How could there be an assassin? Will Rong Qingqing be alright?"
Xie Jingrun said, "Your Majesty, Rong Qingqing's condition is worrying. I will send her back first."
"Go, go, quickly have Physician Lin examine her," Emperor Zhaojing instructed.
"Yes," Xie Jingrun replied, and walked away.
Shangguan Yanran and Changfeng bowed to Emperor Zhaojing and hurriedly followed.
Feng Xin came to her senses and quickly said, "Father, I'm also very worried about Qingqing. I'll go check on her."
"Go ahead, go ahead." Emperor Zhaojing knew that she had been getting close to Rong Qingqing recently, so he agreed.
Feng Xin abandoned her prey and ran away in a flash.
Feng Mo frowned. "Father, your son..."
"Don't tell me you're worried about Rong Qingqing. Didn't you break off your engagement with her?" Emperor Zhaojing glanced at him.
Feng Mo choked for a moment, "...Your Majesty, I just wanted to ask whether we should continue grilling meat or return to the villa?"
Emperor Zhaojing sighed as he looked at the game scattered on the ground. Then, he waved his hand and said, "Alright, everyone's gone. It's just the two of us grilling meat. It doesn't seem very interesting. Let's come back another day."
Feng Mo breathed a sigh of relief, quickly gave a few instructions to the eunuch who had followed him, and then escorted Emperor Zhaojing back to the villa.
Physician Lin was taking a midday nap when suddenly, with a loud "bang," his door was violently kicked open again.
Just as he was about to curse, the person rushed over and pulled him off the bed.
"Imperial Physician Lin, this is a matter of life and death, please come with me," Changlin said urgently.
Physician Lin, slightly out of breath from being pulled, said angrily, "At least let me put on my shoes first."
Changlin kindly let go of him and even helped him put on his shoes.
"What's wrong with your old lady again?" Physician Lin asked irritably.
Does he owe Xie Jingrun something? He can't even sleep peacefully.
"How did you know something happened to our old lady?" Changlin was stunned.
Physician Lin sighed, "If it weren't for the old lady's accident, why would you and your master be so anxious? Especially your master, even if his own mother had died, he probably wouldn't be this worried."
Changlin: "..."
He glanced at Physician Lin's head.
Physician Lin was puzzled. "What do you want to see?"
"I was just checking to see if your head was too firmly set, Physician Lin." That's why I dared to speak to my master like that.
Imperial Physician Lin: "..."
A sudden chill on his neck made him realize what was happening.
Oh dear, why did he blurt out his true feelings?
If that wolf cub Xie Jingrun heard this, wouldn't he twist his head?
He trembled slightly. "Please, Captain Changlin, disregard what I said."
Changlin glanced at him, "Then please ask Physician Lin to go there as quickly as possible to treat our old lady."
Physician Lin dared not delay any longer and rushed to Xie Jingrun's courtyard at the fastest speed he had ever traveled.
When he arrived, Xie Jingrun had already settled Rong Qingqing on the couch.
Because the injury was on her back, he made her lie face down.
He originally wanted to clean her wounds, but Shangguan Yanran stopped him in time.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one else was in the room, Shangguan Yanran said solemnly, "I know how the Marquis feels about Qingqing, but the two of you are not currently engaged. Please leave first, and I will take care of the rest."
Xie Jingrun left without saying a word, his face grim.
Shangguan Yanran called Xiao Tao over, and together they removed Rong Qingqing's clothes, cleaned her wounds, and then covered her with a blanket, avoiding the wounds.
When Physician Lin arrived, the curtains were drawn, and Rong Qingqing only revealed her wrists.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was not right, Physician Lin quickly stepped forward and took Rong Qingqing's pulse.
After a moment, he glanced at Xie Jingrun's gloomy face and said with difficulty, "My lord, I need to examine the old lady's wounds before I can assess the extent of her injuries."
