Xu Mingyi followed the woman to the cubicle to see her injuries. Not long after, she was helped out by Ah Zhu.
The doctor also prescribed some medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and told him to get more rest in the next few days. Seeing that the young man seemed very worried, he also explained that the injury was not serious.
Wu Chao said "Thank you", and after making sure that no bones were hurt, he took Xu Mingyi away with peace of mind.
The group of people left this town and continued to rush back to the city.
Xu Mingyi fell asleep unknowingly in the carriage, and did not even know when he passed the city gate. When Ah Zhu woke him up, he was already outside the Yinxian Tower.
She opened her eyes, sat up straight, straightened her clothes, and was helped out of the carriage by Azhu.
She looked around and saw that the sky was not completely bright yet. It was a medium gray-blue color with a layer of mist floating on it. A cold wind blew in, making her shiver as she just woke up.
Seeing that she had obviously just woken up and still looked dazed, Wu Chao almost used his hands faster than his brain. He immediately took off his cloak, took two steps forward, and raised his hand to wrap it around her body.
The fresh and warm breath unique to the young man suddenly enveloped her. Xu Mingyi was stunned for a moment and opened her mouth. When she was about to speak, she heard him preach from the front: "You told me in the beginning that you don't have to come with me and go through all the trouble until now.
Not to mention being tired and cold, I also hurt my feet.”
"None of this matters, it's just this cloak -"
Wu Chao took his hand back, coughed slightly, and cut off her words: "Go in and catch up on your sleep. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Then, without leaving any chance for Xu Mingyi to speak, he quickly got on the horse and disappeared into the mist with Xiao Qi.
Xu Mingyi lowered his head and glanced at the cloak on his body, with only one thought in his mind - she was already outside the store, and she could keep warm when she went in, but he wanted to continue riding around outside, so he gave her the cloak. Isn't he cold?
?
"Girl, let's go in."
Xu Mingyi unconsciously glanced at the direction Wu Chao left before nodding.
Zhu Xiu, who had been secretly following her all the way, showed up, followed her quickly, and asked, "Is the girl's foot really injured?"
Isn't Wu Shisun gone? Why is Ah Zhu still supporting the girl?
Xu Mingyi couldn't help but look at him when he heard this, and asked inexplicably: "...Does Uncle Zhu think I'm faking my injury?"
She knew that Uncle Zhu had been following her secretly. He must have seen Wu Chao carrying her down the mountain, so... did Uncle Zhu think she was deliberately acting to take advantage of Wu Chao?
Hearing that she was really hurt, Zhu Xiu's eyes flashed with surprise.
After a moment, he sighed slightly.
As he accompanied his girl into the hall, he thought carefully and said: "... He is just a man. It would be too much for a girl to really get hurt if she doesn't make such a mistake."
He was originally a servant of the Yuan family. When he married into the Xu family with Miss Yuan, he has only worked for Xu Mingyi in these years. His position is slightly different from that of ordinary people in the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion - in his eyes, the girl is happy and safe.
The most important thing.
If a girl likes Wu Shisun, she can do whatever she wants, as long as she doesn't suffer a loss.
Anyway, the little girl is very busy and gets bored quickly, so she might get bored of it after a few days.
After all, Wu Shisun is good-looking, but when it comes to his temperament, he doesn't seem to have a gentle and lovable temperament. Once he has experienced fresh energy, he is probably just a passer-by around the girl.
But how could a girl really hurt herself for a passerby?
You know, when the young lady of his family fell in love with the prince, she also used such tricks - but when the young lady was sick and injured, she was just pretending to be in pain. Why did the girl actually do it?
Xu Mingyi fell silent.
This crime is more serious.
...Why couldn't she really have sprained her foot accidentally?
Does she look like a person who will do anything for beauty?
Ahem, although Wu Chao's face does have this weight.
After returning to the guest room, Ah Zhu took off Xu Mingyi's cloak and casually hung it on the screen nearby.
After Xu Mingyi washed himself with hot water, he changed his clothes and lay on the bed, looking sideways at the crow-green cloak, looking thoughtful.
When Azhu saw this scene, he hesitated for a moment.
The girl keeps staring at the paintings on the screen. Should she put down the bed curtain?
Ah Zhu was in no hurry to step forward and put down the curtain. It was not until he saw the girl on the bed closing her eyes that she stepped forward lightly.
Before putting down the curtain, Azhu glanced at the sleeping girl.
The thin skylight penetrated into the room, making the sleeping girl's eyebrows look particularly peaceful and gentle, and the corners of her mouth seemed to be slightly curved, as if she had had a good dream.
…
At the same moment, in a courtyard in the south of the city, a man whose hands and feet were tied and thrown to the ground slowly opened his eyes.
"You finally woke up."
Sui Jiang looked at him and said in a cold voice.
Suishan frowned slightly and glanced around.
He knows this place.
This is a villa that the young master secretly built in the city many years ago.
Previously, no one in the clan knew about the existence of this villa. After the prince and his wife found out about it last year, they just thought that the young master who had been reluctant to agree to marry him was probably hiding in this villa.
light person——
After looking for it, I found out that it was indeed raising something, but it was not a person, but a group of cats and dogs.
The young master liked to keep some small things, but due to his majesty in front of others, he could not bring them back to the palace, so he set up a courtyard like this and assigned several servants and a veterinarian.
Suishan just woke up with a splitting headache and struggled to recall the situation before coma.
After I recalled everything, I couldn't help but feel my head hurt even more.
At this time, a cold sword was pointed at him——
"Tell me, who did you bribe to dare to murder the young master? Brothers, please tell me clearly as soon as possible, so that I can ask the young master to give you a happy life!"
Suishan looked at his former friend and partner, shook his head and said, "I didn't."
"Are you being stubborn?" Sui Jiang's eyes were full of disappointment.
"I really never thought about harming the young master's life——"
"Then how do you explain your fake death?"
"I was also drugged that day... I blocked the sword for the young master and almost died when I suddenly heard a bandit shouting that a large army was passing by. I thought it was Xu Jiajun, so I knew that the young master was saved...
In the chaos, I chose to change clothes with a bandit who was similar to me in stature, ruined his face, and hid."
Suishan said in a slow and weak tone: "I saw that the young master was saved by General Xu, so I felt relieved and left quietly... Have you ever thought about it, if I really want the young master's life, what will happen if the young master is unconscious?"
At that time, it can be easily done with one knife, so there is no reason to miss..."
Sui Jiang's eyes changed for a moment, and he asked steadily: "It's still the same sentence just now - then why did you fake your death?"
