Fu Junheng tore open the corpse's shirt, revealing a white lotus brand on his chest.
"Assassins from the White Lotus Sect."
The White Lotus Sect is a notorious assassin organization in the martial arts world; they can assassinate even royalty and high-ranking officials as long as the price is right.
Mu Chenshuang narrowed her eyes and stared intently. When did she become the target of their attention?
Suddenly.
Suddenly realizing something, she opened her eyes wide and exclaimed in panic, "Oh no!"
Using her light-footed skill, she leaped into the air, but before she could even stand firmly, her feet suddenly left the ground, and then her body was lifted up horizontally. She could clearly feel the man's strong arms supporting her body.
The cold wind was biting, whistling past her ears, but she could only sense the unique scent of a man.
Mu Chenshuang looked up at him, her gaze fixed on the man's exquisitely perfect jawline. The moonlight illuminated his face, making his features appear even more profound and sharp. His silver hair flew in the wind, making him unparalleled in the world.
In an instant.
Her mind went blank, and her heart felt as if it were being gripped by something.
The man parted his thin lips slightly, and his deep, magnetic voice slowly flowed out, "Since you're pregnant and your body hasn't recovered yet, you'll have less luck."
Mu Chenshuang's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately came to her senses. She hurriedly looked away, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Back inside the pharmacy.
Broken tables, chairs, and medicine cabinets.
Doctor Li hid tremblingly behind the cabinet, his eyes wide with terror as he stared at the corpse standing beside him.
"What happened?"
Fu Junheng's cold, deep voice rang out.
With his hands clasped in a gesture of respect, Jueming and nodding, replied, "I committed suicide by poison."
Mu Chenshuang frowned as she stared at the corpse lying on the ground.
Fu Junheng turned to look at her, "Princess Weiyang, who do you think sent this person?"
Mu Chenshuang replied, "Their purpose seems to be to lure me away and assassinate Doctor Li."
As he spoke.
Mu Chenshuang looked at Doctor Li, walked towards him, and reassured him, "Doctor Li, don't be afraid, everything is alright now."
Doctor Li wiped the sweat from his forehead, stood up, and trembled involuntarily when his gaze fell on Jue Ming.
"Dr. Li, have you ever experienced something like this before?" Mu Chenshuang asked.
Doctor Li shook his head, still shaken. "No...no, I thought we had been discovered by the Divine Physician Sect."
If it wasn't for Dr. Li, then it was for her.
But how did that person know he would come here today?
Just as she was completely baffled, Jue Ming spoke up: "The assassin didn't come to kill him, he came to take him away."
Mu Chenshuang was taken aback. So her appearance was just an accident, and the other party's purpose was still Doctor Li?
They didn't take it away today, but they'll definitely send someone else later.
"I would like to trouble Crown Prince Junheng to send someone to protect Doctor Li's safety," Mu Chenshuang said, turning to Fu Junheng.
Fu Junheng glanced at Jue Ming, who replied, "Yes!"
After comforting Doctor Li, Mu Chenshuang left with Fu Junheng, eventually getting into his carriage.
"Is this Doctor Li a member of the Divine Physician Sect?" Fu Junheng asked.
"No, he was an outsider of the Divine Physician Sect. He was framed and expelled from the sect five years ago. He has been practicing medicine under an assumed name ever since. The assassin could not have been sent by the Divine Physician Sect. There is no need to go through all this trouble to take away an outsider."
Besides, Dr. Li treats only ordinary people; logically, they shouldn't have become enemies.
Mu Chenshuang looked puzzled.
If someone can afford to hire assassins from the White Lotus Sect, then the other party certainly couldn't afford it if they didn't have the money and strength.
"So the other party came specifically for you, and taking Doctor Li away was also a way to target you," Fu Junheng said.
"But how could they have known I would go to see Doctor Li today?"
"Perhaps it was an accident."
That's definitely the only possibility.
She and Dr. Li had only met today. The other party wanted to take Dr. Li away instead of killing him, so they must want to know something from him.
She could only think of one person who would go to such lengths to send an assassin.
Xue Jiajia caused a scene here today, and there were quite a few onlookers. It's inevitable that some news will leak out. Given Lu Wei's suspicious nature, she will definitely send someone to investigate whether Xue Jiajia has been disfigured or not.
Fu Junheng looked at her, "I already know who it is just by looking at you."
"The only person I can think of is her, which can only mean that Mu Yazhi's matter is already in dire straits."
They sent assassins to avoid revealing her identity.
Lu Wei probably didn't expect her to suddenly come to see Doctor Li, but fortunately Fu Junheng was there. If Lu Wei had known what she and Doctor Li said, it would have been a big problem.
"From this perspective, Princess Weiyang is indeed facing numerous crises in the Marquis's mansion."
Mu Chenshuang did not respond to his words, but glanced at the man beside her. His lazy and relaxed posture, the slightly open collar revealing a section of his strong and powerful chest, exuded a charming and seductive aura. His alluring temperament was displayed to the fullest. In this private and enclosed space, ambiguous and seductive elements were invisibly spread throughout the entire space.
I don't know if he did it on purpose, but it's so disturbing and makes it impossible to calm down.
Mu Chenshuang felt her throat was dry. She tried her best to calm herself down and said, "Thank you for today, Crown Prince Junheng. But why is Crown Prince Junheng here?"
His tone of voice sounded extremely unnatural.
