“Young Master Huo, I am acting on His Majesty’s orders to arrest Shen Nanxun. He must be taken away now.”
The visitor was Yan Zigui, the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review!
Born into a wealthy and powerful family at the age of nineteen, he became an official through his own abilities by passing the imperial examination.
Because of his impartiality and integrity in handling cases, he offended many people, but this also earned him the deep trust of His Majesty.
Emperor Huiwu originally sent Yanzi back, but Huo Chenyi came along because he was worried about the Chi family.
"He's dying now. If we don't treat him first, he won't even make it to the capital!"
"Then we must treat them on the way; we can't delay!"
The swallows returned, but I remained unmoved.
Huo Chenyi said, "Lord Yan, Shen Nanxun must be escorted back to the capital. But he is currently on the verge of death and cannot withstand the hardships of travel! Your mission is to bring back a living Shen Nanxun, not a dead man!"
"This is my business, so I won't trouble Young Master Huo with it. Even if the treatment is to be carried out here, it must be guarded by the people I brought!"
The swallows have returned to claim the right to guard Nanxun.
The people guarding Shen Nanxun were all brought by Huo Chenyi, so he couldn't get close at all!
But if he loses Shen Nanxun, he will be held responsible!
Therefore, he must personally guard the person!
"Lord Yan, do you not trust me?" Huo Chen asked, narrowing his eyes.
If it were before, of course it would be possible.
But now, if we want to save Shen Nanxun, we have to use the medicine that Tangtang brought out.
But these medicines must never be seen by outsiders!
Otherwise, Tangtang will be exposed!
This is something he absolutely will not allow!
"Is Young Master Huo deliberately making things difficult for me?" Yan Zigui countered with a question instead of an answer, putting the other party in a difficult position.
This has nothing to do with whether you believe it or not.
It was his duty.
"No. It's just that the doctor is helpless right now and can only let Miss Zhu try, but Miss Zhu doesn't want anyone to see the treatment process."
Huo Chenyi simply changed his tune.
"Chenyi, give Tangtang to me first, I'll take her to rest."
Old Man Chi couldn't wait any longer, and he didn't care about being afraid of the officials. He grabbed his daughter and started snatching her away.
Huo Chenyi did indeed have something to do, so he handed Chi Tang over to Old Man Chi.
Yan Zigui said expressionlessly, "Absolutely not! What if she kills Shen Nanxun without anyone watching?"
"Lord Yan, I'm sorry, but once I return to the capital, I will personally apologize to His Majesty and take full responsibility!"
Seeing that he wouldn't agree no matter what Huo Chen said, he stopped wasting time.
He wanted to come back and signal Xiao Lan to go see Shen Nanxun, but when he turned around, he found that Xiao Lan had already gone.
He was very satisfied with this.
"Huo Chenyi! You hold no official position, and I am acting on His Majesty's orders. Are you defying the imperial decree?"
Yan Zigui never expected that Huo Chenyi would be so stubborn and obstinate.
Huo Chenyi bowed apologetically to Yan Zigui, saying, "Lord Yan, I apologize."
Then he waved his hand behind him, and immediately guards appeared and tied Yan Zigui up!
At the same time, it shut his mouth!
The soldiers who followed the swallows immediately drew their swords!
"This is His Majesty's seal!"
Huo Chenyi calmly took out the seal that Emperor Huiwu had given him.
The officers and soldiers immediately knelt down.
Huo Chenyi: "Don't worry, Shen Nanxun will definitely be escorted back to the capital, and even if there is any delay, it will absolutely not implicate you."
"Someone, take good care of Lord Yan."
"Hmm!"
Yan Zigui had never encountered such bandits before, and she struggled desperately in anger!
No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't break free and was quickly taken away by the guards.
"Your team should change into civilian clothes and avoid attracting attention."
"yes."
After giving all the instructions, Huo Chenyi went next door to check on Shen Nanxun's condition.
Suddenly, Zhu Zhuliang's voice came from the top of the wall.
It turns out that Zhu Zhuliang had somehow ended up sitting on the top of the wall between the Shen and Chi families.
He was fiddling with a little trinket in his hand, swinging his legs casually, looking quite content.
"If you had taken out His Majesty's seal in the first place, Yan Zigui probably wouldn't have stopped you, right?"
So why wait until now?
Instead of answering, Huo Chen asked, "What are you doing here?"
The reason I'm only saying this now is, of course, because I don't want to hear the commotion about the returning swallows.
Yan Zigui was a good official, but he was too dull-witted.
Even if he took out His Majesty's seal, Yan Zigui would still keep muttering to himself.
Tangtang couldn't let too many people see what she took out, so this was the only way.
"Me? I'm naturally waiting for the wind to come."
"Waiting for the wind?"
Huo Chenyi didn't have time to pay attention to her and went straight to the neighboring courtyard.
Fortunately, the medicine that Chi Tang brought out worked, and Shen Nanxun's condition stabilized in about half an hour.
It's not so dangerous anymore; we've finally been pulled back from the brink of death.
However, a full recovery is naturally extremely difficult.
And Sister-in-law Chi was finally able to catch her breath.
"Mother, have some fish soup."
Little Suotou slowly walked over with the bowl in his hand, placed it aside, and then helped his mother sit up.
Changsheng, being perceptive, took a soft cushion and let his mother lean against it.
Once the baby was properly seated, Changsheng carefully fed his mother fish soup.
Sister-in-law Chi was overjoyed, sipping the fish soup with delight.
"Mom, you scared me to death."
Changsheng held his mother's hand tightly, refusing to let go.
Still pouting, she said, "I won't leave you anymore. I'm really strong now, and I can definitely beat the bad guys and protect Mommy!"
