Hearing his breathless report, Leng Shaoyu raised his eyebrows and asked. He immediately stood up and shook off his court uniform. Without leaving a single word, he walked out of the vine.

Fortunately, the servant under the wutong tree was kind-hearted. Seeing that the prince had left, he immediately grabbed the rope in his hand like a wild horse. Only when the woman hanging on the nail plate was a few millimeters away from the nail plate did she firmly control the rope, preventing Luo Shang from rolling on the nail plate.

Feeling the rope suddenly freeze, Luo Shang slowly opened her eyes. In her hazy vision, she watched as the figures of people in the courtyard gradually disappeared from the entrance of the vine.

Only then did she realise that Leng Shaoyu had already left.

The two servants quickly moved the nail plate under her and quickly put her down. Then he untied the chain around her neck and the rope that bound her hands.

The untied rope had already been dyed red by the woman's blood, with rows and rows of long thorns still dripping with blood. Streaks of scarlet red marks appeared on Luo Shang's wrist, the blood that was scorching hot was still flowing along her white skin, and it was stained with her light and elegant clothes.

The tiny, long thorns of the thorns had already pierced deep into her wrist. That kind of heart-wrenching pain was as if ten fingers were touching her heart, deeply branding her heart.

"Esteemed wangfei, this servant has offended you too much. I'll inform your personal little girl, Zhuo Jin, to come and take you back." The two servants felt pity for her, but without the orders from the prince, they could not find her a husband, and that was all they could do. As for her injuries, they could only depend on her luck.

Luo Shang raised her haggard appearance and gently nodded her head. Her eyes that had lost all color looked at them and she originally wanted to say a few words of thanks, but her throat seemed to be stuck in a tight choke and she was unable to make a sound. She watched as the figures of the servants slowly disappeared from her sight.

After being suspended in the air for so long by Leng Shaoyu, Luo Shang had already exhausted all of her energy, and her body slowly fell backwards. She only felt that her eyes were filled with dizziness, like the mysteries of heaven and earth, and then she collapsed onto the smooth ground.

She tried to get up, but her wrist felt like it had been broken. She had no strength left, and her arm was sore. Luo Shang bit her pale lips as sweat dripped down her forehead drop by drop. She tried many times, but in the end, she still couldn't get up from the ground. She was so tired that she fainted.

The wind blew the dead leaves on the ground back and forth. In the empty courtyard, other than the frail woman lying in the center of the yard, there was no one else.

Vines were the same as Purple Gold Pavilion; both were abandoned courtyards like the one in the Duke's Mansion could be seen everywhere. If a servant girl hanged herself or jumped into a well and died, the place she would be at would be abandoned and become a abandoned house in the Desolate Hall …

The sun was setting in the south, and the eaves of the houses covered with a layer of crimson red that dyed half of the sky red.

The sun set in the western mountains. The great geese returning to the south flew west in groups. Even their footsteps followed Yu Yuan, disappearing from the skies above the palace …

In the main room of the Southern Xiang Academy, the girls were cheering and celebrating the people that had awoken.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

Following the respectful and soft shouts, the maids in the rooms beside the door all obediently retreated to their sides.

The lady sitting on the bed and leaning on the golden silk cushion, upon seeing Leng Shaoyu coming in, hurriedly forced out a few traces of a smile, and called out: "Big brother, you're here."

Leng Shaoyu's cold and expressionless face actually revealed a trace of gentleness under Leng Yuxin's call. He walked over and sat down in front of her bed.

"How do you feel?" he asked.

Leng Yuxin laughed, shook her head and said: "I'm fine, it's still you, Big brother, making such a big fuss is no big deal."

To Leng Shaoyu, other than gratitude and admiration, she could not find any other words to describe her feelings towards him.

Twenty odd years ago, ever since Emperor Xian had adopted her as the Grand Concubine, Leng Shaoyu had treated her like his own sister and protected her to the extreme, preventing her from receiving even the slightest bit of harm. Seven years ago, in order to obtain her Wu Zhou, she went to reconcile with her family, so that the Jin family wouldn't have to make things difficult for her. Seven years later, she returned as an abandoned princess, and he treated her with the same gentleness.

"You can still joke around. It seems like This King's worries are unnecessary." Leng Shaoyu curled his lips. Although it was just a shallow curve, it still possessed the charm of a man.

"Big brother!" Leng Yuxin said, she looked at the people in the room and asked: "What about her?"

She still vaguely remembered that the Imperial Physician s had all carried their boxes and left. After a while, a woman walked over and sat in front of her.

Although she did not open her eyes, she could still feel the faint blue fragrance. It was very good. From that moment onwards, Leng Yuxin knew that it must have been her. Moreover, who else would be afraid of death in the Duke Palaces other than Luo Shang?

Seeing that everyone was confused, Leng Yuxin immediately asked: "Where's Luo Shang?"

Nanny Ma walked over with a complacent smile. "Princess, don't worry. The prince has already ruthlessly taught the princess a lesson. I'm afraid that before long, she will —"

"When Leng Yuxin heard her say this, her heart burned with anxiety. What? Who told you to do this? "

"Princess, the wangfei is trying to harm you," Nanny Ma thought that the princess had just woken up and might not even know that she was trying to harm him.

"What nonsense are you talking about, it was Luo Shang who saved me." Leng Yuxin looked at everyone's faces filled with doubt. She really didn't know what had happened during the period she was unconscious.

"Brother, it was Luo Shang who used a acupuncture technique to save me, she did not have any intentions of trying to harm me."

Hearing her words, Leng Shaoyu remembered that he had only been so concentrated on coming here to see her that he forgot about that woman. He never thought that Luo Shang would really go and save his family. He didn't know how she was doing and whether the servants continued to torture her.

Leng Shaoyu's shallow eyes did seem a little abnormal.
