Lu Erniang shook her head: "I'm afraid they don't have many people to look for Erlang now. It's safer to move out early."

"But Erlang is still sick." Du Wenxiu frowned.

"Then send the doctor along." Lu Erniang said firmly, her tone leaving no room for doubt.

Du Wenxiu was a little worried.

Cheng Suying's fame is growing day by day. If she is sent away, I'm afraid the other party will figure out that it was because of Erlang's matter with just a little guess.

But if it is not given away, the small courtyard in the house that can be seen everywhere may not even need the trouble to look for it when people come.

Du Wenxiu told her about his worries, and Lu Erniang said, "Please ask Madam Lu to ask Madam Cheng, maybe she can recommend another reliable doctor."

"How can anyone be trusted? Even our own family members are afraid of her..."

Du Wenxiu said anxiously, and suddenly saw Lu Erniang's expression, and he had an epiphany in his heart.

"No, this won't work."

She refuses.

Lu Erniang was helpless: "Madam Lu, the Emperor and the King of England are now fighting overtly or covertly like a bow on a string, and the slightest disturbance will trigger it."

"We can't care about the love between men and women. If the emperor's side gains power, it will definitely not be a good thing for those of us who are doing these things in the dark."

"For people like us, only by protecting Erlang can we have a good future."

Du Wenxiu didn't understand what they were doing, he just felt that it was too cruel to involve innocent people in this matter.

From the look on Lu Erniang's face just now, she had already sentenced the doctor who went with Erlang to death, and had no intention of letting him come back alive.

Du Wenxiu had no grudges against anyone, so how could he do such an immoral thing?

Lu Erniang kept talking until she felt dizzy and didn't see her give in. She couldn't help but say angrily:

"Mrs. Lu, if you kill Captain Lu because of your womanly kindness, how will you face your grown-up child?"

Du Wenxiu's expression froze, and he said, "He has chosen this path. All I can do is protect the home for him."

"But if his whole family is to be implicated because of his carelessness, that is absolutely unacceptable."

Lu Erniang had no choice but to say, "Madam Lu, we can only ensure Erlang's safety now. The King of England is born with deficiencies. I'm afraid that even if he wins the throne, he won't be able to keep it for many years."

"Then the world will still belong to Erlang. But if something happens to Erlang, even if it's a big achievement, it will be in vain for others."

"By then, how will Captain Lu, Madam Lu's family, and I and my brothers survive?"

Du Wenxiu frowned tightly. Is their situation so urgent now?

"What on earth are you doing? You want to hide it from me, but you want me to cooperate." She said dissatisfiedly.

Lu Erniang was silent for a long time before she said, "Captain Lu was afraid that Madam Lu would worry, so he kept it a secret from you."

"If you don't tell me, there's no way I can trust and cooperate with you without any reservations," Du Wenxiu said bluntly.

She believed that she was not the kind of docile woman who would follow her husband wherever he went in this world. Her family had built such a large business that it was absolutely impossible for her to become a man's vassal.

Lu Erniang often traveled in this area and had occasionally heard of Du Wenxiu's deeds. When she heard her say this, she naturally believed it.

After thinking for a while, she finally made up her mind and said:

"At that time, the King of England and the Emperor were alienated because of the Queen Mother Rong's affairs, and Concubine Yu happened to be fanning the Emperor's ear."

"It's a pity that His Royal Highness's mother died early, and he is a gentleman who often avoids suspicion in the palace."

"It was not until Concubine Yu poisoned the newborn son of the King of England and the Emperor protected her that His Royal Highness the King of England realized the reality."

Lu Erniang sighed deeply: "Captain Lu has been targeted by the emperor. King Daoying has ambitions because of his guards and wants to deal with him."

"But the captain was a loyal minister, so they seconded him to the Imperial Guards, hoping to get rid of Captain Lu with the help of Empress Dowager Rong. Fortunately, Captain Lu was smart and took the opportunity to get rid of Empress Dowager Rong, and thus escaped."

"His Royal Highness was very disappointed with the Emperor, so he decided to fight back. Otherwise, I'm afraid his whole family would die."

"Some time ago, His Royal Highness the King of England suddenly fainted, and the imperial physician was called in but could not find out what was wrong. Lieutenant Lu secretly found my husband and treated the King of England, only to find out that it was a chronic poison and he was already terminally ill."

Du Wenxiu was shocked when he heard this. The King of England was poisoned. Under the current circumstances, anyone would think that it was the emperor who did it.

"His Royal Highness was already weak. When he was first diagnosed, he wanted to give up the disease. But if the king orders me to die, I have no choice but to die."

"But there is also the Princess of England, Erlang, and Commandant Lu. Our lives are also ours."

"For the sake of these lives, the King of England prepared for the worst."

"He said he would fight the emperor to the death, and asked me and Lieutenant Lu to take Erlang out of the capital."

"If he wins one day, the world will belong to Erlang; if he loses, Erlang's life can be saved."

"The reason why I have been wandering around Dongxing County is so that if I lose, I can take you and the child away as soon as possible."

Du Wenxiu listened carefully, but there was still one thing she didn't understand.

"If something happens to the Emperor, how can the King of England be guaranteed to sit on the throne?"

Lu Erniang said, "At that time, Lieutenant Lu and I asked His Royal Highness the King of England the same question, but he told us not to ask too many questions and just to ensure Erlang's safety."

"So, Madam Lu, no matter what, we have to keep Erlang safe. Only when Erlang is alive, what His Royal Highness the King of England does will be meaningful."

Du Wenxiu was silent for a long time. She looked up at Lu Erniang:

"I'll go ask Madam Cheng to see if she has a better idea."

"Just don't hurt anyone's life unless it's absolutely necessary."

Lu Er Niang stared at Du Wenxiu for a long time, then nodded slowly.

"Then you can't tell him anything. You can't let him know Ji Lang's identity."

Du Wenxiu simply said, "Okay."

He turned around and walked out.

Subconsciously, she looked at the big tree over there again, and it was empty.

When we arrived at the workshop, Cheng Suying was busy working.

At this moment, the women in the workshop have not yet finished their work, and all the people who come here are people who come to seek medical treatment.

Seeing her coming, Cheng Suying gave the patient an injection and put him on the bed, asking his family to watch him. Then she raised her hand, wiped the sweat off her face, and followed her out.

"What's wrong? But what's the matter?"

Du Wenxiu looked at her seriously, organized his words, and briefly told her the story, but he did not reveal Erlang's identity at all.

She only knew that Erlang was going to the countryside to recuperate and needed a doctor to accompany him, so she asked her if she had any reliable doctor to recommend.

Cheng Suying smiled bitterly and said, "I am a woman, and I have taken away someone else's business. Do you think any doctor would be on good terms with me?"

Du Wenxiu was stunned. He had never thought about this question.

"If there are many people going, then take my younger sister with you. The child is just weak and needs to be taken care of. It's not very difficult."
