Fresh blood streamed down Liu Mama's forehead, quickly staining her entire face red.
He lay unconscious on the ground, as if he had stopped breathing.
Upon seeing this scene, Shen Yuan felt as if she had been struck on the head with a club, leaving her dizzy and unable to react instinctively.
Jiang was also startled, but she quickly became secretly delighted.
That old woman just died like that? It really did fulfill her wish.
She was the only one who knew the secret from back then, and now that she's dead, those secrets will never see the light of day again!
Jiang was so happy that her shoulders were shaking, and she wanted to burst into laughter.
Shen Yuan didn't know how she got to Granny Liu. When she came to her senses, she was already holding Granny Liu in her arms.
She placed her hand on Granny Liu's wrist and felt her faint pulse; only then did her own body gradually warm up.
That really scared her to death!
She thought...
Thinking of this, Shen Yuan looked at Jiang Shi and Shen Yunjin with icy eyes, "If anything happens to my grandmother, you two will be her grave guardians!"
After saying that, Shen Yuan picked up Granny Liu and left Wude Courtyard.
However, before leaving Wude Courtyard, Shen Yuan instructed the servants behind her: "They are not allowed to leave the General's Mansion before Grandma wakes up!"
The servants exchanged bewildered glances after hearing Shen Yuan's words. They could use Shen Wei's name to temporarily stop Jiang Shi. But Shen Yun Jin was no longer just the second young lady of the General's Mansion; she was also the Crown Princess!
How could they possibly stop the Crown Princess?
Shen Yunjin noticed the predicament on the servants' faces, and with a snort of a smile, walked towards the gate of Wude Courtyard: "Let's see who dares to stop me today!"
Shen Yunjin, accompanied by a group of guards, was not stopped by anyone. She raised her eyebrows triumphantly and looked at Shen Yuan with a provocative gaze.
Shen Yuan bit her lower lip tightly.
At this moment, she truly had no more prestigious status than the Crown Princess.
But it was all one life at best, and she had the courage to risk it all...
Before she could stop him, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her like a gentle breeze sweeping away fallen leaves. He twirled the sword in his wrist, and a sharp sword aura burst forth, which actually knocked the guards on Shen Yunjin's body to the ground.
Xiao Jinmeng was also forced to take several steps back.
Could there really be such a powerful person by Shen Yuan's side? She clutched her stomach, a sense of lingering fear rising in her heart.
She is carrying the Crown Prince in her belly; there can be absolutely no mishap!
So Shen Yunjin immediately clutched her stomach and sat down on the stool.
Seeing that Xiao Ling had rushed back, Shen Yuan gave him a look, then hurriedly carried Liu Mama back to Changfeng Residence.
On the way, the maids from Changfeng Residence chased after Shen Yuan, saying, "Young Miss, let us help you carry Granny Liu!"
But Chen Yuan didn't stop. She seemed not to feel the weight of Liu Mama's body and ran tirelessly all the way to Changfeng Residence.
Shen Yuan gently laid Liu Mama on her bed.
Bai Zhi happened to have invited the family physician.
Shen Yuan stepped back, making room for the physician to come forward and take her pulse.
She had just given Liu Mama acupuncture, but Liu Mama showed no signs of waking up.
Therefore, she could only place her hopes on the royal physician.
Shen Yunjin's commotion naturally alerted Shen Wei.
Upon hearing that Granny Liu was still unconscious from her injuries, Shen Wei immediately got out of bed and had the steward take him to Changfeng Residence.
He knew how important Granny Liu was to Shen Yuan, so he also knew that if Granny Liu didn't wake up, Shen Yuan would definitely not let Shen Yunjin off the hook.
Therefore, Shen Wei made a decisive decision and had the steward push him to Changfeng Residence.
You will inevitably pass by Wude Courtyard on your way to Changfeng Residence.
Before Shen Wei even reached the Martial Virtue Academy, he heard the sounds of fighting.
Xiao Ling fought ten men single-handedly, and with just a few sword strikes, he rendered the guards of the Crown Prince's residence powerless to retaliate.
Those guards were soldiers kept by the Crown Prince, all handpicked from the military camp, each with exceptional skills, yet none of them were a match for Xiao Ling.
Shen Wei frowned.
Xiao Ling's martial arts skills were even more formidable than he had imagined.
How did Shen Yuan become acquainted with such a skilled martial artist?
According to his investigation, Shen Yuan had been living in Chujia Village for more than ten years, and her usual job was to go up the mountain to collect medicinal herbs. However, in recent years she opened a pharmacy and started a business.
Just then, another sword struck, and screams of agony filled the Wude Academy.
Shen Wei's eyes widened immediately. He had seen Xiao Ling's swordsmanship before!
Because there were people from the Martial Arts Academy and the Crown Prince's residence present, Shen Wei did not go forward, but only glanced at them from afar.
Therefore, he couldn't really see Xiao Ling's swordsmanship clearly, nor could he be sure that the last sword strike was the sword style of Qingyun Mountain.
Fearing discovery by the Crown Prince's people, Shen Wei dared not linger and rushed to Changfeng Residence.
He had barely arrived at Changfeng Residence, and before he even entered the house, he heard Shen Yuan's heart-wrenching voice: "Go and fetch a doctor! Bring the best doctors in the capital, no matter how much it costs, no matter what the price is, go and fetch them!"
As she finished speaking, the maids filed out of the room.
Upon seeing Shen Wei outside the door, the maids were startled for a moment, then quickly bowed and greeted him.
Shen Wei waved his hand, telling them to hurry up and do the tasks Shen Yuan had assigned them.
He also instructed the steward: "Take my token, get into the General's Mansion's carriage, and go to the palace to fetch the imperial physician! Tell him that someone in the mansion is seriously ill and we request the Emperor to send an imperial physician to examine him!"
"master……"
Butler Cheng held the token given to him by Shen Wei, but hesitated to act immediately because he thought that Granny Liu was just a midwife, and a midwife who stole children.
He's dead, so be it. Consider it compensation for his wife.
Why would we need to go to the palace to summon a royal physician?
Seeing Steward Cheng standing there dumbfounded, Shen Wei said unhappily, "What? Can't this general order you around?"
Steward Cheng hurriedly nodded and bowed, saying, "Master, you've misunderstood. This servant will go right away!"
After saying that, he took the token and left Changfeng Residence.
Shen Wei then lifted the curtain of Changfeng Residence and stepped inside.
Inside the room, Shen Yuan knelt by the bed, holding Liu Mama's hands tightly, as if trying to warm her already cold body.
Tears streamed down her face without making a sound.
The physician stood by and advised, "These blows were far too severe. The old man is too old and his body can't take it. In addition, he has also injured his head. I'm afraid he will have a hard time waking up."
