The old Duke's wife was in a very bad condition. When Su Liyue arrived, she had already contracted toxic shock and was running a fever. If she was not rescued, it would be too late.
Thinking of this, Su Liyue looked at everyone in the room and said, "Except Wen Lan, everyone else should leave."
Su Liyue was very weak at this moment, and her voice was feeble, but her eyes were sharp, revealing a determination not to be rejected.
The others were about to leave when Chen started shouting again, "You saved your people, why are you asking us to leave? Are you feeling guilty? If you can't save people, then don't try to be so arrogant."
Chen's words made everyone in the Chen family look at her, even Su Liyue.
Chen still didn't think there was anything wrong with her words and continued, "Didn't I say that? Otherwise, you were fine yesterday, why do you look so sick today? Are you feeling guilty about something? You..."
“Snap—”
Before Chen could finish her words, a slap hit Chen hard in the face.
In the entire Duke's Mansion, the only person who dared to attack Chen was the old Duke.
The old Duke was so angry that his beard was shaking. He pointed to the door and said, "Rebellious girl, get out of here!"
Chen covered her face with her hands and looked at the old Duke with an unsure look on her face, as if she had never expected that she would be beaten.
Yes, Chen is the youngest in the family, with two older brothers. She has been spoiled since she was a child. Although she is middle-aged, she is still a little spoiled. Has she ever been beaten?
And he was beaten in front of so many people.
However, in the entire Duke's Mansion, Chen was most afraid of the old Duke. So even though she was furious, she didn't dare to say anything. She just glared at Su Liyue with resentment and walked out angrily.
"Princess Zhan, I..."
After Chen left, the old Duke looked at Su Liyue and apologized with a guilty look on his face.
However, after meeting Su Liyue's eyes, the old Duke said nothing and turned around and left.
Naturally, the rest of the Chen family didn't dare to stay any longer.
When only the old Duke's wife, Su Liyue, and her servant were left in the room, Su Liyue looked at Tingyu and said, "Guard the door! No one is allowed in."
Upon hearing this, Tingyu looked at Su Liyue worriedly, nodded, and left.
After Tingyu left, Su Liyue glanced at Wen Lan, as if she was weighing something in her heart.
Wen Lan saw this and hurriedly asked, "Master, what does your servant want to do?"
Su Liyue looked at Wen Lan, then silently took out several surgical tools from her sleeve.
Under Wen Lan's shocked expression, Su Liyue said calmly, "You will be my assistant."
Given her current physical condition, it is very difficult for her to complete the operation independently.
However, it is unrealistic to let Wen Lan be the assistant, not only because Wen Lan only knows some simple suturing, but also because she has to take out a lot of surgical instruments.
Wen Lan can see the surgical tools, but not the surgical instruments.
Therefore, she could only let Wen Lan be her assistant and she would do the work herself.
Wen Lan is competent for the job of assistant.
Although Wen Lan didn't know how her master hid those things in his sleeves, she still nodded.
Then, Su Liyue pulled the curtain, she was inside and Wen Lan was outside.
Only then did Su Liyue take out some surgical instruments from her medicine box and began the operation.
Apply anesthesia, drain infected urine, remove stones, clean the wound, give antibiotics... Originally, these steps were no problem for Su Liyue, but now she was injured and had lost too much blood. Even with Wen Lan cooperating tacitly outside and handing her things, Su Liyue's clothes were still soaked after a series of steps.
There is blood and sweat.
Despite this, Su Liyue's eyes were still bright and her hands were moving steadily.
Su Liyue didn't put all the instruments back into the medicine box until she was sure that everything was handled properly.
After shrinking the medicine box and putting it into her sleeve, Su Liyue opened the curtain again.
As soon as the curtain opened, Wen Lan saw that Su Liyue's clothes were stained with blood, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Miss, you——"
Su Liyue: "Tingyu and I will go back first. When the old lady wakes up, you will feed her the medicine yourself."
She was hesitant to rely on others.
"Miss, you..." Wen Lan was very worried.
Su Liyue shook her head, "It's okay."
As she spoke, Su Liyue walked towards the door with light steps.
At this time, at the door, the old Duke was already waiting anxiously.
When he saw the door was opened, he was the first to rush forward.
However, after seeing Su Liyue covered in blood, the words the old Duke was about to say got stuck in his throat.
That blood...
"The old Duke's wife is no longer seriously ill and needs to rest. No one is allowed to enter this room until my maid comes out."
When Su Liyue said this, her eyes were fixed on the old Duke, as if she was waiting for the old Duke to give an answer.
Su Liyue has an aura that makes people want to submit to her.
The old Duke nodded subconsciously.
But I still couldn't help asking, "How is she?"
Su Liyue: "I can't die."
However, after saying this, Su Liyue’s eyes went dark.
Then, his feet went weak and he fell forward.
"Miss--"
"Princess Zhan——"
Seeing Su Liyue fall, Tingyu was about to go to pick her up with bloodshot eyes, and the Chen family members also cried out in surprise.
However, one person was faster.
Some people only felt a gust of wind blowing, and then saw a black shadow passing by and steadily caught Su Liyue.
Everyone looked closely and saw that the person who caught Su Liyue was none other than Ye Cangming.
Ye Cangming held Su Liyue in his arms, his nose filled with the smell of blood, his eyes were as cold as ice, and a terrifying aura emanated from his body, bringing the atmosphere present to freezing point in an instant.
The old Duke stared at Su Liyue's hand in a daze. At this moment, blood was flowing down the blood-stained sleeve and from between Su Liyue's fingers. The ground was soon covered with blood spots.
This...Princess Zhan was actually injured so badly?
"Bang--"
Just as everyone in the Duke's Mansion was shocked by the scene before them, a dull sound was heard.
When everyone looked back, they saw a man who had been beaten badly and thrown to the ground by the guards of the palace.
Ye Cangming looked at the old Duke with gloomy eyes, "For the sake of the old Duke, I will not interfere in today's matter. But if the old Duke does not give an explanation, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Having said that, Ye Cangming hugged Su Liyue and strode out.
After the people had gone far away, Chen finally reacted and wailed, "Dad, how could the War King treat my uncle like this? How am I going to explain this when I go back? I..."
Chen didn't finish her words because she was forced to shut up by the old Duke's gaze.
At the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Nan Jing said, "Master, I have discovered that this matter is related to Concubine Shangguan."
Ye Cangming paused slightly, his eyes deep and cold.
He then opened his lips slightly and said, "Shangguan Ruoning's ability is not enough to interfere in the affairs of the Duke's Mansion."
Nan Jing was slightly surprised when he heard this, "Your Highness means..."
