Baili Yi was settled down and the best doctor in the city was hired to treat his injuries.
Although these injuries did not cause too much damage, many of them had become festered and infected. Just after making sure he was temporarily safe, Baili Yi finally couldn't hold on and fell into a deep sleep, and he also developed a high fever at night.
In order to ensure Baili Yi's safety, Qian Mo and Dong Zhe took turns to lead people on night duty.
In the second half of the night, all was silent except for the rustling of leaves in the wind. Qian Mo stood under a tree outside the courtyard, as still and silent as a statue.
As long as they could successfully send Baili Yi and Baili Han back to Northern Wei, he and his brothers would be able to enter the legendary Kuangfeng for six months of training. They had long thought about the legendary Kuangfeng. That place, where the Madam trained, could transform an ordinary soldier into a super-strong man in just six months.
Some time ago, they just listened to the lady pointing out their shortcomings, and they were able to display such amazing group fighting ability on the battlefield. After the great battle two days ago, all the guards of the Prince's Mansion were even more yearning for Kuangfeng.
Outside, on the street, the sound of horse hooves echoed from afar. Qian Mo blew out his cicada whistle, signaling the brothers on night watch in the yard to pay attention; someone was coming this way.
After the cicadas chirped, everything returned to calm again, but the security in the courtyard was instantly raised to the extreme.
After the sound of horse hooves disappeared outside the yard, a black figure quietly rushed in from outside the yard.
The person who came was light and lithe. Although she was wearing a black robe, it revealed her graceful figure. It was obvious at first glance that she was a woman.
The black-robed woman had barely landed when she was caught red-handed by Qian Mo and his men, who were lurking outside the courtyard. Although the woman possessed considerable martial arts skills, they were clearly no match for the Prince's personal guards, who, combined with six others, could kill an Eagle Guardian even more formidable than Baili Yi.
"Who is coming?"
The captured woman was obviously a little embarrassed. She cleared her throat and then said awkwardly, "Princess Feng Luoran of Dongyang."
Qian Mo was startled, then immediately pulled the black silk scarf off the woman's face. He had seen Feng Luoran in Nanyue before, and when he saw that the woman before him was indeed the Princess of Dongyang, Qian Mo realized something and signaled his subordinates to release Feng Luoran.
"Are you his subordinate?" Feng Luoran was obviously full of suspicion towards the unfamiliar Qian Mo. This was because these people did not seem to be the guards he had brought with him.
"I am a personal guard of the Prince's Palace of Nanyue, and I have been ordered to protect Prince Gan." He didn't know what the relationship between Feng Luoran and the Northern Wei was, so on someone else's territory, he would never reveal any information about Baili Yi without complete certainty.
"I heard that Prince Gan was seriously injured?" Feng Luoran asked nervously, "What on earth did you encounter in that lawless area?"
"We encountered an assassination attempt in a no-man's land, and Prince Gan was indeed seriously injured. However, they are only superficial wounds, and I believe he will be able to heal in half a month."
"Then...what about the people around Prince Gan? Where is his personal bodyguard now? This princess needs to see him."
"..." Qian Mo was silent. This princess went to see the Northern Wei Emperor right after arriving. Did she know his true identity or something else?
Seeing Qian Mo didn't speak, Feng Luoran's heart instantly rose to his throat. He grabbed Qian Mo's arm and asked anxiously: "Why don't you speak? What happened to him? Is he injured too?"
