When Ruan Banxia first saw Mu Zhiyue in prison, she was genuinely worried that he wouldn't make it through the ordeal. Cleaning the rotten flesh from the wound was a very painful process.
With this ginseng keeping her afloat, she felt a little more confident.
Ruan Banxia treated Mu Zhiyue for a full two hours, from morning until noon, before finally coming out of the house.
She hadn't even had time to wash the blood off her hands before she came over to let Ye Lingyu know she was safe.
She knew that the people outside had been waiting for far too long and were even more anxious than she was inside receiving treatment.
Under the sunlight, Ruan Banxia smiled brightly: "Sister-in-law, Brother Cheng, Uncle Mu has been temporarily saved."
"How is he now? Is he conscious?"
"Not yet, he'll wake up in two hours. Once he wakes up, give him his medicine, and then let him rest slowly. He should be able to recover about 70-80%."
"Thank you so much, Banxia. May I go in and see Uncle Mu?"
"Yes, but to reduce his pain, I put him into a deep sleep. He can't hear you talking now. Besides, this time the damage to him was too great; it has fundamentally damaged him, and he will have to be carefully cared for from now on."
Ruan Banxia didn't explain it too clearly, but everyone had a general idea.
Mu Zhiyue is over fifty years old. He was imprisoned by Ye Zongzhi, which damaged his body. He has finally recovered under Ruan Banxia's treatment.
Now, after being so abused, he's lucky to have survived.
For the first time, Ye Lingyu shed tears in front of everyone. Finally, she had saved the person.
She dared not imagine whether Mu Zhiyue would have been able to hold on until they arrived if they hadn't rushed over immediately.
Ye Zongzhi, what a cruel heart you have!
I had thought that Mu Zhiyue would be exposed, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
Moreover, Nie Yilin knew about the relationship between Mu Zhiyue and Cheng Qingyan, and also knew that Cheng Qingyan possessed the Marquis's token. This could have been Mu Zhiyue's lifeline in Yuanning County, making him someone even the county magistrate wouldn't dare to touch easily.
However, the situation far exceeded expectations. Wei Yong, the magistrate of Yuanning County, truly did not take the Marquis of Pingle seriously, which was highly unusual. After all, his attitude towards Cheng Qingyan and the others was quite different before.
Who exactly did Ye Zongzhi curry favor with that made Wei Yong disregard the Marquis of Ping Le?
Mu Zhiyue lay on the bed, his breathing still very weak. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't see the rise and fall of his chest at all.
Although Ruan Banxia said that Mu Zhiyue could not hear the outside world, Ye Lingyu and Cheng Qingyan still did not make a sound.
It was at this moment that Ye Lingyu realized that Mu Zhiyue's face was covered not only with knife cuts and whip marks, but also with branding marks.
The brand is located above the cheekbone and is in the shape of the character "奴" (slave). The surrounding flesh has been scalded, and the character is clearly visible. To remove this mark, it may be necessary to scrape the bone.
Ruan Banxia has only applied some medicine to him for now. If she wants to continue treatment, she will have to wait until Mu Zhiyue wakes up and recovers before she can receive further treatment.
The pain one has to endure is no different from having one's bones removed and flesh cut out.
At that moment, Ye Lingyu suddenly wondered if she had made a mistake.
If reclaiming what rightfully belongs to her requires sacrificing Mu Zhiyue, then she wouldn't have let Mu Zhiyue risk coming to Yuanning County again in the first place.
She underestimated Ye Zongzhi's ruthlessness. A man who could deceive her mother for wealth and status should never have been expected to succeed in the first place.
Ye Zongzhi, Ye Lingxi, she will definitely repay this grudge tenfold!
Emerging from Mu Zhiyue's room, Ye Lingyu felt as if all her strength had been drained. Even with the sunlight on her skin, she felt no warmth.
She already felt guilty when she rescued Mu Zhiyue from the Ye family, but she never expected that Mu Zhiyue would suffer such pain and torment now.
Mu Zhiyue was not only her elder, but also a close friend of her late mother. Now that she was injured because of him, how could she face her deceased mother?
Cheng Qingyan regretted it now, regretting that she acted too late and Ye Zongzhi beat her to it.
It's always best to take revenge as early as possible!
The Ye family has only been able to establish itself in Yuanning County for a few decades, and part of that success is thanks to Ye Lingyu's mother, Bai Ruosu.
Now that Mu Zhiyue is in this state, Cheng Qingyan is no longer going to hold back.
She wanted to dismantle the Ye family as quickly as possible and erase them from Yuanning County forever.
We can't let Ye Lingyu remain trapped in self-blame and sadness; we need to help her cheer up.
It's only meaningful to avenge someone personally.
After thinking it over, Cheng Qingyan said to Ye Lingyu, who was still immersed in grief, "My wife, I have already summoned Luo Ji and the others. Uncle Mu is too badly injured right now, we can't just let the people who hurt him go."
These words pulled Ye Lingyu back to reality from her sadness: "You want to do this?"
Cheng Qingyan smiled slyly: "My wife, you shouldn't ask me what I want to do, but rather, how do you want to take revenge?"
Ye Lingyu reached out and grabbed a handful of wind, then opened her hand and let the wind go, calmly saying, "I want the Ye family to disappear."
Cheng Qingyan readily agreed, "No problem, let's make them disappear."
These words are easy to say. If it were really that simple, Mu Zhiyue wouldn't have been arrested, and they wouldn't be here now.
While waiting for Mu Zhiyue to wake up, Luo Ji had already arrived with his men and was now discussing matters with Cheng Qingyan and the others in the front hall.
Luo Ji brought not only some of his men with him this time, but also his friends from Wanfeng County.
They had already agreed before they came that their purpose was to make the Ye family pay the most painful price as quickly as possible.
All expenses will be covered by Luo Ji. After the matter is completed, the Ye family's shops and houses, except for those that Ye Lingyu needs, will be given directly to the person who helped.
In other words, by operating from Wanfeng County for a period of time, they can not only do Luo Ji a favor, but also obtain some assets in Yuanning County free of charge.
Why not?
Moreover, Luo Ji's winery and department store in Wanfeng County are doing very well. Those who have some connections with Luo Ji would not want to make Luo Ji owe them a favor at this time.
Moreover, Rozi also said that he was just a manager and that he was not the real master.
All of Luo Ji's shops in Wanfeng County had the character "Cheng" in the lower right corner of their signboards. It was said that the person surnamed Cheng was the real owner of these shops.
This time, they not only gained a favor with Luo Ji, but also met the person behind Luo Ji, so it was definitely a win-win situation.
Among the people who came were some of Luo Ji's old acquaintances, after all, Luo Ji had also been a wanderer in the past.
As for Cheng Qingyan's identity, Luo Ji had secretly revealed to them that he was no ordinary person.
