Mu Chenshuang, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, looked back at Zhu Yue, hesitated, and then stepped forward to help them up, saying, "Since we escaped danger today, and you don't want me to capture that person, then let's go back as soon as possible."
Mu Chenshuang gave Zhu Yue a deep look, then reached out and touched the little girl's face, smiling at her as a way of comforting her.
Zhu Yue nodded absentmindedly. Mu Chenshuang noticed that she seemed genuinely frightened, and was not as serene and elegant as usual, but rather looked preoccupied.
Mu Chenshuang didn't know what to say, so she just took her hand and said, "If you need me, you can come to me anytime. If you don't want to have anything to do with that person and want to get rid of this situation, you can also come to me."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yue raised her eyes and looked at Mu Chenshuang gratefully, "Okay, thank you, Princess."
Mu Chenshuang lowered his dark eyes slightly, reached out and grasped the girl's wrist, and took her pulse. "Take the medicine you were prescribed for another three months. You can reduce the dosage as needed. Come to the clinic to see me then."
"Okay." Seeing that her daughter's condition was well under control, Zhu Yue finally showed a relieved smile, looked gratefully at Mu Chenshuang, and watched her leave.
Linglong was waiting by the carriage. As soon as she saw Mu Chenshuang return, she rushed to greet her. She asked in a low voice, "Miss, what happened just now? You scared me to death."
As Linglong spoke, she couldn't help but look up in the direction of Zhu Yue.
Mu Chenshuang stared straight at the carriage, already on the footstool, and said calmly, "Let's go."
"Oh." Seeing that Mu Chengshuang didn't say anything, Linglong immediately shut her mouth and stopped asking questions. She then got into the carriage with Mu Chengshuang.
The carriage started moving slowly again. Mu Chenshuang leaned against the window, her fingers gently tapping the hidden compartment beside her, one tap after another, while her mind kept replaying the scene from just now.
When the guard faced her just now, a hint of ruthless killing intent flashed in his eyes, but she also noticed that when the guard faced Zhu Yue, there was no killing intent in his eyes, and he even showed a hint of respect.
But another very strange thing about the whole thing is that the man seemed indifferent and cold towards Zhu Yue's daughter, as if he were looking at an ant that could be crushed at any moment.
This sense of disconnect left Mu Chenshuang completely baffled. It seemed that Zhu Yue and the man's master had a deep connection.
As she was thinking, before she could fully sort out her thoughts, she heard Linglong speak up from the side, "Miss, we've arrived at the clinic."
The clinic was as bustling as ever today, with nothing different or special happening. Aside from the free clinic, the only thing that tugged at Mu Chenshuang's heart was the patient who was seriously injured and unconscious, and was most likely also an assassin.
Mu Chenshuang took his pulse, gave him a life-saving pill, and instructed Doctor Li to use the unique acupuncture techniques he learned at the Divine Physician Sect to detoxify him every day, without giving any other instructions.
As night fell, Mu Chenshuang boarded the carriage to return to the Marquis's residence. Thinking about Fu Junheng and what they would have to face next, she felt somewhat depressed and irritable.
"Tomorrow you will go to the clinic to help Doctor Li. I will be going to the palace to examine the Empress Dowager's pulse." In the twilight, Mu Chenshuang spoke slowly. Her eyes, filled with melancholy and worry, appeared even more deep and captivating, making one want to explore and protect them.
Linglong quickly agreed and followed Mu Chenshuang off the carriage, returning to the gate of the Marquis's mansion.
As soon as they stepped off the carriage, they saw Wei Xu standing with Mu Yazhi.
