"Brother Chenyu, you have to be careful." Cui Cancan also said.
Su Chenyu glanced at Cui Cancan and realized that this fat girl had not been bothering him for a while. If he did not respond to others' concern for him, wouldn't it be too rude?
So he just said "hmm" softly.
The Xu family sent out several horses and headed towards Qingyun City.
Several people ran all the way, from day to night. This was difficult for Wen Die, a lady from a wealthy family. She always took a carriage when she went out and had never ridden a horse before. Therefore, her riding posture was wrong, which caused her whole body to ache, and her thighs were sore. But she gritted her teeth and persevered.
"Sister, are you okay?" Wen Yuan asked worriedly.
"Brother, I'm fine." Wen Die said.
Even when people were eating, they would eat immediately.
Finally, in the dead of night, he dared to arrive at the gate of Qingyun City.
At this time, the city gate was closed and there were several officers and soldiers guarding the city wall. Under the light of the torches, several people on horseback could be seen below.
"Who are you? If you want to enter the city, come back tomorrow morning." A soldier shouted.
"I'm Wenyuan, brothers upstairs, please open the door quickly!" Wenyuan shouted.
"Is that you, young master? I'll go down right away." The soldier went down the city wall with a torch.
After a while, the door was half opened from the inside. The soldier held the torch and shone it towards the few people. Seeing that it was indeed the eldest son, he was completely relieved and opened the door completely.
"Brother, do you know how my father is doing now?" Wen Yuan asked.
"Master, Lord Wen is still unconscious, but a doctor has been called to see him. We won't wash him no matter what the situation is now!" said the soldier.
Wen Yuan nodded, rode away on his horse, and several people quickly followed.
They stopped at Wen's house and everyone got off their horses.
"Sister, let me help you down." After Wen Yuan got off the horse, he reached out and grabbed Wen Die's arm, helping her down from the horse.
"Ah..." As soon as his stable foot touched the ground, he cried out in pain.
Her hip joints were inevitably bumpy because she had been sitting on the horse for too long, and they hurt when she moved even slightly.
Wen Yuan held his sister with both hands and said with some concern: "Sister, hold on for a while, we are at the door."
Xu Wenwu frowned, feeling somewhat distressed. Without thinking, he stepped forward and picked up Princess Wendie.
Wen Die exclaimed, then her face turned red, but because she was worried about her father's injury, she didn't care about being shy.
Xu Wenwu was also stunned by his own actions, but he had already picked the person up, so he couldn't let go...
Qibao, Jingchen and Su Chenyu looked at each other.
Wen Yuan didn't delay and immediately went forward and knocked on the door.
The one who opened the door was the housekeeper of the Wen Mansion. Seeing Shi Wenyuan standing outside, his originally worried face immediately turned into surprise and said, "Master, you're back!"
Then he saw Wendie in Xu Wenwu's arms and was startled. He asked, "What happened to Miss?"
Wen Yuan said: "My sister is fine, they are all my friends. The most important thing now is how is my father?"
The butler slapped his forehead and said, "Master, I will take you to see the master right away."
The butler led the person to the door and knocked gently.
The person who opened the door was Madam Wen's maid.
The housekeeper said, "Is the Madam asleep? The young master and the young lady are back."
The maid said, "Madam is getting ready to go to bed. I'll go in and tell her."
There are men outside the door, and it is not appropriate to let them into the women's dormitory.
After a while, the door opened again. When Mrs. Wen saw that it was her son who came back, she said with some surprise: "Yuan'er, you're back!"
Seeing his mother's haggard face and red eyes, Wen Yuan hugged his mother with heartache and comforted her.
Xu Wenwu put Wendie down.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wen walked up to her worriedly and asked, "Die'er, what's wrong with you?" Her husband had already had an accident, and her daughter couldn't afford to have any more accidents.
Wendie held her mother's hand and asked anxiously, "Mom, I'm fine. I just have a sore leg from riding a horse carriage all day. It will be fine soon. How is my dad?"
Mrs. Wen looked a little sad when she heard this and said, "The doctor said your father fell into a coma due to excessive blood loss. He woke up once during the day, but soon passed out again."
Wen Yuan said, "Mom, let's go in and see Dad."
Mrs. Wen nodded, then looked at Jingchen and Yefeng with some confusion.
Wen Yuan explained, "Mother, they are my new friends who also live in the Xu family. This is Master Jing, and this is his bodyguard Ye Feng."
Madam Wen nodded and said, "Thank you for coming all the way here in the middle of the night. You must have been exhausted on the journey. Come in quickly. Butler, please send for some tea and snacks."
When everyone entered the room, they saw Magistrate Wen lying on the bed with a pale face and sleeping. There was a circle of white bandage around his chest, and traces of blood were seeping out.
Wen Die didn't care about the occasional pain in her thigh. She walked forward and held her father's hand. Her eyes were sore and she said, "Dad, Dier and brother are back to see you. You must get better!" After that, tears fell down her face.
Wen Yuan was extremely uneasy. He said with a sullen face, "Mom, why did Dad become like this? Who did this?"
Madam Wen said, “The day before yesterday, your father was returning from the government office. On the road, he met a man who came up to him in a panic and said that there were several bandits outside the city who had robbed passersby and had killed some people.
When your father heard this, he returned to the government office without saying a word and took a dozen officials with him to rescue people. However, after searching outside the city gate, he did not see anyone in danger.
