In the inky darkness of the night, a streak of lightning streaked across the sky. In the torrential downpour, a slender shadow flashed across the beams of the room, followed by several well-trained shadows.

The rain had drenched his night clothes, making it difficult for him to stick to his clothes. However, the Jian Qiuying did not think about such things. The tearing pain in his calf reminded him of his present situation.

His breathing, which had quickened due to running, pulled at his aching internal organs. For a moment he imagined it was all just a dream.

"Yue Hua, tell me this isn't true …" Once again dodging the concealed weapon that was shooting towards him, Jian Qiuying had almost lost consciousness in his legs. It was so cold. It wasn't the cold that seeped into his heart, but rather, the cold that rose up from the bottom of his heart. It was enough to cause anyone to feel despair.

Everything in front of his eyes started to blur, but the dark guards still pursued him relentlessly. The rain was aggravating his leg injury, so he believed that he must have lost a lot of blood while he was escaping. The smell of blood was drifting in the rain. It was truly outrageous to be in such a sorry state.

He jumped up lightly from the eaves one last time, and landed heavily on the muddy grass. The troops chasing after him seemed to be getting closer and closer, until Jian Qiuying raised his head weakly, and a pair of golden silk boots entered his eyes, followed by endless darkness …

"You guys, go over there and search. Over here, go back to the forest and search."

"Yes sir!" In the torrential rain, the Dark Guard's voice carried a sense of urgency. The Shi Jinhan stood under the roof with a gentle smile, and the attendants behind them nervously looked at these uninvited guests.

"Disturbing the Crown Prince to rest, this humble one deserves a thousand deaths, it's just that that thief who barged into the Fourth Prince Palace at night, has now disappeared from here. For the safety of your highness, this subordinate has no choice but to search, in case that thief attacked your highness!"

"No worries. Just be careful not to disturb the others. They have been busy the entire day and are very tired. Please forgive them." The smile didn't decrease from the corner of Shi Jinhan's mouth, and its voice became even gentler as it exuded the intent of a humble gentleman.

"Your Highness is kind and compassionate, this subordinate will be troubling you." After a while, he received a message from his underling that the blood had disappeared from the side of the pool. There was also a piece of torn cloth with blood in it. The leader of the hidden guards frowned slightly, thinking that the blood must have escaped into the water.

"Your Highness, please take a rest. That bandit should not be here, but just in case, please reinforce the defenses, and I will take my leave." With a wave of his hand, the dark guards immediately disappeared into the thick night sky. Shi Jinhan watched as their smiling expressions gradually disappeared, a trace of solemness filling those eyes that were as warm as jade.

"Your Highness, since he's in the backyard, what should we do with him?" A trembling voice sounded from beside him.

Originally, everything had gone smoothly, but suddenly, a man dressed in black, covered in blood, had fallen into the crown prince's sleeping quarters. At that moment, he was so scared that he only had six souls left, but luckily, the crown prince had also rushed out when he heard the commotion, ordering his trusted aide to carry the man away.

"Dealing with him is not the most important thing right now. The most important thing is how we will deal with you." The crown prince, who was still smiling a moment ago, suddenly seemed to have changed. The attendant only had the time to see the smile on the warm man's face, and in the next second, his head was separated from his body.

"I found a place to bury it." Taking the handkerchief given to him by his trusted aide, he wiped his hands, and instructed Shi Jinhan with disgust.

Inside the Fourth Prince Palace, there were tears falling outside the house, lightning striking and thunder rumbling. Inside the house, however, it was dead silent. Shi Jinchen looked nervously at the elderly doctor who was checking his pulse. It was at this moment that the secret guard behind him suddenly went up to him and whispered something in his ear.

"Trash, you can't even catch a cripple!"

Shi Jinchen had injured the right leg of the man in black. During the fight, he didn't even notice that the man had escaped, and immediately ordered the hidden guards to chase.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. That black clothed man's blood disappeared by the river. He must have escaped from the water." The shadow guard replied respectfully.

"Alright, you can leave now." In the next few days, add another layer of guards to the manor. If anything happens again tonight, bring your head here to see me. "

"Yes, sir."

On the other side, the old doctor stroked his white beard and slowly said, "This lady's body is unharmed. Her internal organs are undamaged."

"Then may I ask Doctor, since she is unharmed, why did she faint?" The most famous doctor that Shi Jinchen had brought to the capital overnight had fainted for no reason, so naturally, he had to get to the bottom of this.

"There is naturally nothing wrong with this lady's body. I have just checked her pulse, and it is as smooth and smooth as the surface of a mountain. This old man has practiced medicine for many years, but this is the first time I have encountered such a vigorous pulse." The old man still answered calmly and slowly, but his Shi Jinchen was a bit hurried.

"That doctor, does that mean she is in good health?"

"What are you so anxious about?" This old man just wants to ask, does this lady have a headache? " When the old man heard the doubt in Shi Jinchen's words, he immediately blew his beard and glared. He was called over to save a person in the middle of the night but he actually dared to doubt his medical skills. This brat was truly outrageous. Do you think that just by giving her a random set of medicine and giving it to her, she can wake up? "

Shi Jinchen rubbed his nose. He never thought that this old doctor would have such a strange temperament. However, in order for his Xiao Sui to awaken faster, he had to tolerate it even if he could. What the doctor said is right, This King is anxious. "

Seeing that the old man's expression was obviously good, Shi Jinchen hurriedly said respectfully: "This girl is usually very lively, and has never mentioned the matter of a headache to me. However, a few days ago, her complexion was a bit haggard, so she only mentioned that she had insomnia. "

"Insomnia?"

"Yes, after I heard this, I had the old housekeeper go to the pharmacy and get her a few sets of tranquilizer pills. A few days later, her spirit clearly improved a lot."

"Huhu, I just randomly grabbed a few pills. Is this how you treat your beloved girl?" The old doctor began chattering again.

"Cough cough, old doctor is mistaken, Xiao Sui is only my personal maid."

How could a personal maid care so much? Just because he was unconscious, he called me over to treat him? "It is clear that the old man does not approve." "Young man, it's better to be frank. You have to take the initiative to treat people you like. If you miss this chance, you will regret it for the rest of your life …"

"Cough, cough, cough …" Shi Jinchen coughed even more violently, and his entire face was flushed red. He had not expected that the doctor would drag the problem onto him and was left in a sorry state.

Seeing him like this, the old doctor did not bother with him and took out a silver needle to begin treating him.
