Chapter 213 Message
Princess Yanya quickly put down the medicine bowl to stop her: "Don't move rashly. Your heart meridian wound is still healing, and moving around will cause harm. As for words of thanks, there's no need to say more. If we're talking about thanks, I don't know who should thank whom. It's just that these past few days, because of the assassination of Prince Yu, the camp has been in chaos, but my place is relatively quiet. You can stay here and recuperate."
"His Majesty..." At this point, Mu Xi wanted to know the outcome of Marquis Shen Lun's actions.
Princess Yan Ya's bright eyes flashed with undisguised disappointment: "He's still alive and well."
"Oh..." Mu Xi was also somewhat disappointed, which meant that Marquis Shen Lun's plan had failed.
Princess Yan Ya sighed almost imperceptibly: "He's alright, but so many people will suffer. The entire Yanshan area and the towns within dozens of miles around it are under martial law. The Imperial Guards and the Red Carp Guards are conducting a massive search, and countless innocent people will be killed in the process. The entire camp is also searching everywhere, and people are in turmoil and have no peace."
Mu Xi could sense Princess Yan Ya's emotional fluctuations. Considering that the Mu and Xi families shared a deep-seated hatred for each other, it was difficult to continue the conversation.
So he changed the subject: "By the way, Princess, it was quite a coincidence that day. We met you on the official road. Otherwise, if we had been any later, Mu Xun and I would probably have died there."
Princess Yan Ya chuckled: "It's quite a coincidence. Ever since I came to Yanshan, I've been living in the North Camp. Few people come here, and Prince Yu ordered the Red Carp Guards to block the only official road to keep me from being disturbed. That day, when I heard that Prince Yu had been assassinated, I wanted to rush over to see what happened, but I didn't expect to meet you before I did."
I see.
No wonder there was no one on that official road; it turned out that Prince Yu had blocked the road specifically for Princess Yan Ya.
Princess Yan Ya noticed that Mu Xi was exhausted after sitting for a while, so she said again, "You should rest here first. Don't worry about things outside. We can talk about everything after you recover."
"This..." Mu Xi hesitated, as she had been unconscious for four days and knew nothing about the situation outside.
And why has Princess Yan Ya repeatedly helped him?
And that Liu Yang, he must have revealed her secret of disguising herself as a man and pretending to be the prince to Prince Mu Sheng of Xuanyou by now, right?
If Mu Sheng finds out, then the matter should be exposed to Lord Shen as soon as possible, so that there is a countermeasure.
in addition……
A hundred thoughts were racing through Mu Xi's mind.
Princess Yan Ya also noticed something: "You don't need to worry about not being used to it here. Your doctor, Dr. Luo, and your maid have also come. Dr. Luo should be watching over the Second Young Master right now. Your maid is brewing medicine. You only drank a couple of sips of the medicine just now. Eat some porridge. There's still a lot of medicine to drink."
Upon hearing that Physician Luo was actually here, Mu Xi's heart immediately settled: "Then I'll trouble you, Princess."
Princess Yan Ya stood up: "Here you may call me Princess, and I have a personal nanny, Wen, by my side, so it's fine to do so in front of her as well. But if outsiders come in the next few days, Your Highness, please be careful to address me as 'Madam,' it's fine, I don't mind."
"Yes, Princess." Mu Xi felt that if anyone in this world deserved the title of "Princess," it was only the one in front of her.
After talking for a while, Mu Xi became listless again, but knowing that Mu Xun was alright, Bao Fan was alright, and Doctor Luo was still here, she was somewhat relieved and drifted off to sleep again.
After an unknown amount of time, Mu Xi vaguely heard voices outside the curtain.
Half-asleep, I turned my head to look at the entrance of the tent, and there stood Doctor Luo.
"Dr. Luo..." Seeing Dr. Luo again felt like a lifetime had passed.
Doctor Luo placed the medicine bowl on a low table beside her, took out silver needles, and began to administer acupuncture while speaking: "Don't rush to drink the medicine, and you don't need to say anything more. Your injury this time is even worse than last time. You hadn't even recovered from the last injury, and now this... sigh... talking is draining your energy..."
As she spoke, Doctor Luo began to administer acupuncture to Mu Xi.
Mu Xi knew her own body well, but there were some questions she couldn't avoid asking: "Mu Xun, he..."
Before the question could be finished, Doctor Luo quickly replied, "Mu Xun hasn't woken up yet. Princess Yan Ya sent someone to deliver the news earlier, which startled us all. In the end, I brought Tao'er here, leaving Zhe Lan and that girl named Pan'er to guard the camp. Tao'er is currently by Mu Xun's side, and it will probably take another two days for him to wake up. You must stay calm these next few days and avoid overthinking so that your heart can recover as quickly as possible."
Mu Xi gagged, wanting to ask more questions.
Doctor Luo stopped him in time: "I know what you want to ask? As for the situation outside... Prince Yu was assassinated, but he was unharmed. Not only was he unharmed, but it seems that some of the assassins were also captured. It seems that they were prepared in advance, and the assassins walked right into the trap."
ah?
Mu Xi was startled.
Doctor Luo inserted a silver needle into the temple: "Calm down. I will tell you everything I know. It's inevitable that you'll be worried, but you don't need to let these things affect your mood. After all, your life is more important."
Mu Xi took a deep breath and regulated her heartbeat.
While administering acupuncture, Doctor Luo pondered for a moment: "Prince Yu is fine, and Grand Marshal Gao Quan is also fine. He controls the camp now, with imperial guards everywhere. Your uncle Shen Lun has remained silent, both before and after the assassination attempt on Prince Yu, likely feigning illness. As for the others... only three of the four feudal lords are involved. You were injured by the villain, and Princess Qingyang is said to be indulging in revelry every day, which is unrelated to the assassination attempt on Prince Yu. As for the Crown Prince Xuanyou, he was said to have sustained minor injuries while rescuing the emperor... Other than that, there should be nothing else."
Mentioning the Crown Prince of Xuanyou, Mu Xi naturally thought of Liu Yang again: "Luo..."
He was stopped by Doctor Luo as soon as he opened his mouth.
But there were some things Mu Xi had to say: "Dr. Luo, do you know who injured me and Mu Xun?"
"An assassin?" Even Doctor Luo himself felt something was amiss. He sighed, "I don't know. Princess Yanya was very secretive and didn't know anything when asked. She only said that you would know when you woke up."
Mu Xi didn't have the strength to say much, so she could only be brief and to the point: "It was Liu Yang, the Eagle General under the command of Prince Xuan You. He saw through my disguise as a man the moment he saw me."
"Ah..." Doctor Luo's hand trembled. He had never expected this, but he didn't ask any more questions, mainly because he was afraid that Mu Xi would talk too much at this time and hurt her temper.
Speaking was even more difficult for Mu Xi while lying down, so she quickly said, "Therefore, Doctor Luo, I have a favor to ask of you: you must inform Lord Shen of this news as soon as possible."
"Shen Lun?" Doctor Luo hesitated.
Mu Xi knew that Doctor Luo and Shen Lun must have had a grudge in the past, so it was normal that they did not want to meet: "There is no need for Doctor Luo. It may be more convenient to let Tao'er go. Let Lord Shen know about this matter so that he can be on guard."
