In the back house, which is the largest house with three entrances, the maids moved quietly and quickly one by one. Some carried basins of water and went in and out of the largest room in the back house, and some brought medicinal materials on the plates to the people in the house.
After the doctor identified him, he hurriedly left. There were many more palace guards guarding both inside and outside the courtyard than in the past. They all stood with solemn expressions, like sculptures of clay figures.
In the main hall of the largest room sat the prefect who looked a little tired. The teacup in his hand was open. The tea in it had been carefully changed three times by the maid. The prefect did not even take a sip. He just sat there alone with his eyes slightly closed.
Say nothing.
There was a faint sound of suppressed sobs coming from the back room.
The young second son was lying on the big bed in the back room. At this time, his face was pale, his lips were light-colored, and his eyes were slightly open and seemed to be closed. Sitting next to him was an old man with white hair and white beard, who was slightly bent.
He carefully placed his fingers on the Second Young Master's veins. After a long time, he gently put down the Second Young Master's hand. He stood up and bowed to the young woman in red who was reclining on the seat in the back room. He said, "Madam, the Second Young Master's injury is already over."
He has stabilized, but the assassin's sword still injured his internal organs, and it will take a few days to wake up..."
The young woman in red, who seemed completely weak, stretched out her hand to wipe her face, then straightened her body and asked urgently, "How is the injury to my son's internal organs? Will there be any root causes of the disease?"
"This..." the old man stretched out his hand to wipe his forehead, and said hesitantly without daring to raise his head, "The wound penetrated quite deeply, and it still hurt the second young master's lungs to some extent...
.But fortunately, the second young master is a cultivator, and the internal injuries can be slowly healed by the Qi in his body... and he will eventually recover completely..."
The young woman in red waved her hand, "You go ahead and prepare the medicine..."
The old man, Ru Meng, exclaimed, kowtowed and trotted out of the back room.
The prefect who had been in the main hall outside slowly walked into the inner room and came to the bed. He looked at the second young master's eyebrows that were still frowning in a coma. He couldn't help but frown, and then glanced at the man in red who was crying softly on the chair beside him.
The young woman said, "It is Yun'er's great blessing that he is still not seriously ill after this calamity. Why are you crying!"
The young woman in red stopped crying when she heard this and just wiped her tears quietly.
"I have arranged for people from the ANBU to come over. They will stay with Yun'er after he recovers from his injuries, plus...your people," the prefect said without even looking at the young woman in red.
After a pause, he continued, "Yun'er's safety should be guaranteed, but Yun'er shouldn't be allowed to leave the city during this period of time, and don't go out of the palace to have fun while she's recuperating. As a mother, you have to be busy on weekdays.
I don’t know what the so-called things are, but I can spend some time with him at this time."
The young woman in red still lowered her head and said nothing, but her tears no longer flowed.
The Lord Prefect bent down and reached out to touch the second young master's face gently, "Anyone who dares to touch the foundation of my Luo family, I will make them pay..." He stood up and walked out of the house, "You
Just stay next to Yun'er and watch."
It was long after the prefect left the house that the young woman in red waved her hand and asked the two maids in the inner room who were already trembling with fear to go out. After a long time, a figure in black slowly walked out from the shadows in the corner of the inner room.
"He arranged for ANBU people to come. It's too dangerous for you to show up now..." The woman in red stood up slowly and closed the door to the back room. When she turned to face the man in black, she still looked miserable.
, face covered with frost.
"He must have suspected something, and his attitude towards you is different from before." The man in black took a step forward with concern, then stopped when he saw the cold eyes of the young woman in red, "We should have made preparations earlier.
"
"What preparations are you making? Are you worried that he will kill me before he dies?" The young woman in red put a sarcastic smile on her lips, slowly walked back to the chair and sat down with an elegant posture, "He won't kill me.
Yun'er is still young now, and he doesn't have much time. Killing me, Li Jun of the Luo family, would probably be an advantage to others. At least it would be a turbulent result. He must keep me, with the help of external deterrence and
The secret power together helps Yun'er secure his position as the prefect. If that time comes, he still has a back-up plan to kill me... Hehe, then I'll see what happens..."
The man in black's eyebrows knitted together, "The prefect will naturally not allow him to do such a thing. When he dies, everything will be over for him."
The young woman in red understood that the man in black was not her husband. She just sneered and sat beside the second young master's bed. Then she looked at her son with a gentle face, "My Yun'er will be the prefect of Li County. He
His mother will naturally be protected by him in the future. As for the prefect of Yongchang County...it is not easy to be in charge of Yongchang County..."
The man in black was silent.
The young woman in red talked about other things, "That scoundrel got out of Licheng?"
The man in black hummed.
The young woman in red gently rubbed her hand on the second young master's slightly frowned eyebrows, with a smile on her face, "My son is seriously injured and lying here suffering, why should he leave cleanly?" "The one who did it was not him.
Man, he is a proton..." The man in black hesitated for a moment and then said, "Now is not the time to deal with him, he is still alive after all... When the matter of leaving the city is over, I promise
He will be a dead man!"
The young woman in red shook her head and said, "We don't have to do it to kill him. Since he is going to Cangyan, then naturally someone will want the head of Mr. Lijun."
The man in black was startled, and then exclaimed as if he wanted to understand something, "Xiyi...?!" He took a step forward but did not reach out to touch the young woman in red, "It is too dangerous to seek skin from a tiger, you are not afraid
Luring a wolf into the house?!"
"What are you afraid of? What do I have to be afraid of? No matter what..." the young woman in red's smile became even brighter, and her eyes as she stared at the second young master were as gentle and pure as mountain spring water, "I just gave up that pale face..."
..That’s all…”
The man in black stared at the familiar yet unfamiliar young woman in front of him with wide eyes. After a long time, he exhaled and said slowly, "Yun'er's injury is not serious. When he becomes the prefect of Li County, how can he be a mere evildoer? Cang Yan
A place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Once it is given to the Western Yi... it will be difficult to get it back. Moreover, once Ganyuan becomes the front line against the Western Yi, then Yongchang County will also..."
The young woman in red smiled and glanced back at the man in black, with a very sarcastic look on her face, and then looked back at the second young master's face, "With Cang Yan, we will always guard the place of the Four Wars.
Cangyan, but you only need to guard the Xilan Gorge leading in and out of Cangyan. You don’t understand. If you don’t free your hands and prevent Anling County and Yongchang County from being so nervous that they can’t sleep, Yun’er will become the prefect of Li County. This world
How interesting can it be...?!"
The man in black was stunned and speechless.
After a long time, the young woman in red spoke again, her voice as low as a murmur, "You men always talk about your family, country, and world, but how many of you just talk about it, reluctant to part with this, reluctant to part with that, and I...
.Except for my Yun'er, I'm willing to give up everything... Only when I'm willing to give up can I get what I get..." She laughed a few times and then suddenly said, "Before, at the city gate and...
Did the dozens of people who caused the conflict go to the southern battlefield?"
"We're on our way," the man in black blurted out as he was a little confused.
"Okay, it takes too much effort to kill that evil bastard. Now is not the time. It won't be difficult to kill all these dozens of ants," the young woman in red said softly, as if she was afraid of waking up her Yun'er, "Send someone to kill them."
Kill them, and then...let everyone, especially those from the Licheng garrison, know that it was that scoundrel who did it."
The man in black was silent, said yes, and disappeared into the darkness.
