On one side of the big room, there was a bed with a person lying on it. There were two or three other people around, both men and women, and no one knew what they were doing.

After the smell of blood, there is a strong smell of medicine.

Wen Yu didn't care about anything else and rushed to the lying person. The light in the room was so bright that she could only vaguely make out that it was Master Qing.

His head was wrapped, his eyes were tightly closed, his face was swollen, pale and with a distinct yellow tinge, and his body was covered with a sheet.

"Master Qing?" Wen Yu called softly, but she didn't respond at all.

Qi Wu asked Laba to support her and asked the person next to him, "Is there a doctor here?"

An old man next to him said, "I am the old man."

"How is she now?"

"This lady has been seriously injured in the head and shoulders, and is bleeding profusely. So, her condition is not good. The wounds have been sutured, applied with medicine, and bandaged. Now, one is worried about damage to the brain. Another is that we are worried about the high fever and inflammation afterwards. And... she is bleeding too much, I don't know if she can make it."

Wen Yu looked at her sadly, and suddenly realized, "Doctor, thank you for your hard work. Could you please take the pulse record?"

The old doctor nodded, and a young man next to him handed over a thick stack of papers. "Brother Jiang Qing, have someone follow Mu Bo to visit my cousin and see if he has the right medicine."

The streets would be quiet soon, and without government officials to lead the way, there might be more trouble. Zhang Jiangqing quickly made arrangements and Mu Bo took his men away.

Qi Wu looked around and asked, "Where is this place?"

"Princess Huiduan's Mansion." Zhang Jiangqing said.

Wen Yu was shocked: "Why are you here?!"

Suddenly, someone spoke at the door: "Everyone, our master is here."

A man walked in from outside. He was tall and strong, wearing ordinary cotton and linen clothes, and walked in casually.

"General Duanmu." Zhang Jiangqing bowed first, then introduced Qi Wu: "This is Master Qi Wu and his wife. General Duanmu is the princess's only son."

Wen Yu had heard of him before, and after a closer look, he was quite handsome, but he didn't have the temperament of a young master from an aristocratic family like Qi Wu.

The expression on his face... looks like he doesn't seem to be very nice to talk to!

General Duanmu said casually, "Duanmu Hui." He actually glanced at Wen Yu deliberately.

At this moment, Wen Yu had no makeup on her face, only a hairpin pinning her hair, and no other ornaments on her body. She was shocked and frightened, and her face turned pale.

But under the light, it looks quite gorgeous.

"Sit here." Duanmu Hui pointed to another corner.

After a few people sat down, Zhang Jiangqing said, "I haven't had time to tell you, sister Ayu, it was General Duanmu who saved Master Qing."

This relationship seems a bit confusing... Wen Yu looked at him, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Duanmu Hui said, "Let me briefly explain. One of my subordinates lived in Huaishu Hutong, and he died in battle two years ago. I returned to the capital, and just found some time today to visit his home. The personal soldiers went in first with the things, and I met an acquaintance at the street corner, and we talked for a few words before walking into the hutong.

So, I encountered a robbery and murder. When I heard the sound, the two women had already fallen to the ground. The other party was two strong men. When I saw someone raised a knife again, I shouted and went over... The two men were not afraid of me. One rushed towards me, and the other wanted to attack the woman on the ground. "

"I was carrying... a weapon, so I attacked first and injured the man with the knife, who fell to the ground. At first, the two men probably thought I was just an ordinary passerby, right? Seeing this, they were a little surprised. When they saw me holding the weapon again, the man grabbed his injured companion and ran away... Just as I was about to chase him, a sleeve dart came towards me from the top of the wall, and I barely dodged it. It seems that there are not two people on the other side, but at least three."

Qi Wu asked: "This is not an ordinary person."

Duanmu Hui picked up a small dart from the table next to him, cushioned by a cloth. "It's poisoned. They must be killers. But they seem to just want to pretend to be ordinary robbers. Even the weapons they took were just..." Pointing to the corner: "Wooden sticks and hatchets. They didn't use much force, otherwise she would have died long ago. But the little girl is dead."

When Wen Yu heard this, tears welled up in her eyes. She remembered the little girl who accompanied Master Qing, who had small canine teeth and loved to laugh.

Fearful and regretful at the same time, he choked up and said, "It's all my fault... I noticed something, but I was still careless."

Qi Wuyi felt distressed, and quickly supported her shoulders, comforting her softly: "Things haven't been figured out yet, don't blame yourself yet..."

Duanmu Hui looked at him and laughed in his heart: This Qi Wu, he looks decent and is said to be quite capable, but why does he speak like a sissy? Wen Yu grabbed Qi Wu's arm, "It must be because she saw Master Qing that day, so she pretended to be sick and avoided him. I, I didn't realize it... I really thought she was just sick by chance."

Wen Yu said, "He was obviously a killer, such a powerful guy, but he only used a stick and a hatchet...Master Qing is just a manager of the embroidery building, who could he offend?"

There was silence for a moment.

Duanmu Hui continued, "Since the woman was still alive, I asked my personal soldiers to bring her back. The doctor beside me is more experienced in treating this kind of injury. That's why she was able to survive until now."

Wen Yu wiped her tears and stood up: "General Duanmu, thank you for saving my life! From now on, please let us know if you need us."

Duanmu Hui nodded: "Sit down. Her current condition makes it difficult to move... and if those people really want to kill her, it will be safer here."

He looked very confident.

Qi Wu said: "Thank you, General Duanmu. I may have to trouble you for this matter."

"You're welcome." Duanmu Hui said.

Qi Wu turned to Wen Yu and said, "Ah Yu, don't get excited. I seem to have heard you mention that Master Qing has a nephew?"

Wen Yu suddenly came to her senses: "Yes, yes, yes! Master Qing didn't go home, maybe he was going to his nephew's place."

"Do you know where he lives? I will go and pick him up myself!" said Qi Wu.

"I don't know..." Wen Yu said.

Duanmu Hui said: "It should be near Huaishu Hutong in the east of the city."

Wen Yu pondered: "Let me think... Li Jiang seems to have accompanied Master Qing there once, so he knows."

Qi Wu said, "Then Jiang Qing and I will go find Li Jiang. And Zhu Zhu and Lan Zhou... We can't be careless now."

"Zhuzhu has been in the inn, with Mr. Hu..." Wen Yu suddenly felt that Hu Fei was not completely useless. At least he could protect Zhuzhu.

"Lanzhou is at home alone... Laba, go and look after him!"

That old witch... Wen Yu thought about Tan's usual appearance, and was afraid that she would use such means... just to vent her anger and torture me.

Several people left, leaving only Wen Yu and Duanmu Hui.

"General Duanmu, I'm so glad to meet you! I don't know what to say..." Wen Yu seemed to have survived a calamity, and her eyes were filled with tears again.

"Maybe it's... fate!" Duanmu Hui sat lazily, looking at Wen Yu impolitely.

"...Do you know my second uncle?"

"I know." Duanmu Hui smiled.

"I also know the princess. Although I don't know her well, I admire her very much. Before, I didn't want to have a deep relationship with the group leader. But today is different. I want to tell you: my second uncle is not a good match for the princess. I also hope you can stop the marriage."

Duanmu listened very carefully, but did not take it seriously. He said "very tolerantly": "No one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. He can change in the future..."

"…But a dog will always eat shit!" Wen Yu said angrily.

Duanmu laughed again.

"I'm serious. I'm afraid that I'll make the princess sad!" Wen Yu said sincerely.

"But she is very happy now! No matter what choice one makes, there are consequences to bear. Even if she will be sad at that time, we can't stop her from being happy now just because that kind of thing will happen in the future!"

Wen Yu shook her head: "I am a layman, and I don't understand what General Duanmu said."

Duanmu Hui: "The princess has her own responsibilities. So does your second uncle! When the time comes, he will know what not to do. If he does it, he will bear the consequences. Well, let's not talk about them. You..." He looked Wen Yu up and down, "Pretty little lady, who did you offend? To be honest, I don't have such a person around me."

"General, you are good at deploying troops and fighting on the battlefield, and you may use strategies, but what you do is aboveboard and will be rewarded by the emperor... Unlike this, a rat in the gutter." Wen Yu was filled with hatred. She had never suffered such a big loss since her rebirth.

Duanmu showed satisfaction on his face: "Little lady, what you said is to my liking. After all, your help was not in vain!"
