"Master, what do you mean by that?!" Lian Zhan struggled to understand. The most urgent task now was to devise a strategy to destroy Cui Zhen's prestige, not to worry about when he would leave Jingcheng.
While Lian Zhan was feeling extremely depressed, Xiao Yi said calmly, "Cui Zhen must have made some preparations, so we can't just stare at his convoy as it leaves Jingcheng in such a grand manner."
“???” Lian Zhan became more and more confused.
I have no idea what the subtext of Xiao Yi's words is.
Yan Ce took up the conversation, "During the Battle of Wucheng, he deliberately brought in a third party in order to disrupt our own defense. Since that's the case, then... we'll give him a taste of his own medicine. Anyway, I've secretly seized enough weapons from the third party that were shipped to the imperial capital, enough for us to secretly follow up on the case."
"What are you talking about?!" Lian Zhan was really confused.
After obtaining Pei Yucheng's consent, everyone turned around and left the ward to deal with related matters, but Lian Zhan was still standing there in a daze.
When leaving the hospital, Lian Zhan still couldn't figure it out.
He caught up with Nanshi, who was walking at the end of the pack: "What did Cheng Ye just say?!"
Nanshi's face looked a little bad.
The lips are a little white.
He stared at Lian Zhan for a long moment, then asked, "Master Lian Tong, didn't you say your brain is a hundred times better than mine? If it's so good, then take your time to figure it out."
"..." Lian Zhan was naturally furious and angry. For the first time, he realized: Nanshi was so bold. He even dared to confront him?!
Nanshi turned around and left without hesitation.
Xu Ze, who was standing not far away, noticed Nanshi's abnormality. He stopped and waited until Nanshi came closer before asking with concern: "Are you injured too?!"
Nanshi didn't say a word.
…
the next day.
Jingcheng.
Hospital.
Yesterday, it rained heavily all night.
Today's weather is unusually good.
The distant sky is dazzlingly blue and cloudless.
When Nanny Wang knocked on the ward door, Ji Yuqi was sitting on the bed with her legs crossed, in a daze, her mind full of the scene in the early morning when she had a fever and was in a daze.
Although she was unconscious, she even fell into a coma later.
But she was sure: there must have been someone in her room last night.
A second before she fell into coma, she tried her best to open her eyelids once. Although her brain was dizzy, she could clearly see a black figure walking towards the ward door with the help of the light from lightning that cut through the darkness of the ward.
She remembered it very clearly: when the black shadow left, the smell of blood that was lingering on the tip of her nose gradually faded away.
When people have a fever and are unconscious, they are bound to have illusions.
But, it is hard to make mistakes with your sense of smell.
Ji Yuqi was certain that someone had indeed entered her ward last night.
But in the morning, when she asked the nurse who was on duty last night, she said that no one had entered. She also said that Pei Huaijin had sent several Pei family guards to guard the door of the ward, so it was impossible for anyone to enter the ward.
Now, Ji Yuqi was confused.
Could it be that I was really hallucinating? !
When Nanny Wang entered the ward carrying the nutritious meal, she felt so guilty that she didn't dare to look Ji Yuqi in the eye.
"It's all my fault for being so careless. If I had been more careful last night and checked the little prince's nutrient soup carefully, this accident wouldn't have happened." Nanny Wang was on the verge of tears. "I was already wondering at the time. The master had just given the order, so how could the nutrient soup be enough? Madam, it's all my fault that you got whipped."
After being tricked last night, I'm afraid no one would trust Nanny Wang again.
However, Nanny Wang was personally assigned by the old lady of the Pei family to take care of Ji Niancheng.
There will be no problem.
Ji Yuqi was silent for a while, then said: "Don't blame you, it's my own fault for being too careless. Xiao Yi had clearly warned me."
"Madam..." Nanny Wang still felt guilty.
Ji Yuqi changed the subject: "How's Chengcheng doing?!"
Nanny Wang said, "The little prince was frightened last night and isn't in a good mood today, but with Master Buddha and Master watching over him, he'll be fine."
Ji Yuqi stopped talking.
The wound on his back was so painful, and coupled with the recurring fever, Ji Yuqi had no appetite at all.
Don't want to eat.
As Nanny Wang placed the exquisite nutritious meal on the small table, she whispered, "Madam, even if you have no appetite, you should eat at least a little so that your body can recover faster. These dishes and soup were prepared by the kitchen at the Buddha's order."
Ji Yuqi hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the chopsticks.
However, just as she was about to pick up some food, Nanny Wang, who was standing nearby, helping to pour soup from the thermos on the bedside table, suddenly asked in a sharp voice, "Why is there blood on the floor?! Madam, did your wound open last night?!"
Hearing this, Ji Yuqi turned his gaze slightly away, and indeed saw several drops of black blood on the floor beside the bed...
