"Sister-in-law, what's going on? Why is there blood on him?" Lu Han looked down at Xie Linan, who was lying on his shoulder with his brows furrowed. He subconsciously touched his forehead and immediately retracted his fingers, "It's so hot."

Yuan Buwei took out a porcelain bottle from the medicine box, poured out a red pill, and stuffed it into Xie Linan's mouth: "I said, how could he leave Xie's so easily? Now it seems that he has been beaten a lot."

"I was saying that he was a little weird today. Turns out he was injured."

"Fortunately, we chose to go to the White Horse Temple today. He is lucky." Yuan Buwei shouted to the outside of the car curtain, "Go a little faster."

"Got it, Madam." The groom waved the reins, and the two horses neighed and ran even faster.

When we arrived at Wanning Marquis Mansion, the rain had not stopped yet.

Yuan Buwei got off the carriage first and called the servant to carry Xie Linan in.

"Chenxiang, go to the kitchen and get some hot water. Han'er, go find my second brother. Young Master Xie's figure is similar to my second brother's. Ask him to find a set of clean clothes, both inside and outside."

"Okay, Madam."

"Oh, okay, I'll go now."

Yuan Buwei pushed open the door of the guest room and said, "He has an injury on his back. Let him lie on the bed and wipe the rain off his body with a towel."

"Yes." The servant nodded and began to wipe Xie Linan skillfully.

After a while, Chenxiang and Lu Han arrived at the same time.

"Sister-in-law, how is he? How is he injured?"

Yuan Buwei slightly turned sideways to allow Lu Han and Lu Bing to see the injury on Xie Linan's back.

"Oh my god, he..."

Lu Han covered his mouth. Xie Linan's back was densely covered with whip marks, and some places were already ulcerated, oozing pus and blood. But he didn't say a word and persisted for so long. "He doesn't care about himself at all."

"He is just a puppet of the Xie family. No one cares about him. He wishes he could die sooner." Yuan Buwei shook her head, sat on the edge of the bed, and began to clean Xie Lin'an's wound. "Second brother, come and help me hold him down, so that he won't struggle because of the pain."

"Oh."

Lu Bing nodded, walked to the bed, and reached out to hold Xie Linan's wrist.

He knew about the grudge between his elder brother and Xie Linan.

When he heard his sister say that she wanted to get a set of clean clothes for Xie Linan, he was not happy at first.

But now, seeing him covered with wounds, I feel bad.

After a stick of incense.

Yuan Buwei finally cleaned out the pus, blood and rotten flesh from Xie Linan's wound, but he had already fainted from the pain.

"The wound is inflamed and he got caught in the rain. If it's not treated properly, he'll lose his life." Yuan Buwei shook her head and threw the blood-stained gauze into the basin.

"It seems that he is quite pitiful." Lu Han frowned.

"Han'er, don't feel sorry for him. This is his own choice. Feeling sorry for a man is the beginning of bad luck." Yuan Buwei began to mutter, "You can sympathize with him, but you must never feel sorry for him."

"Of course I just sympathize with him. How could I possibly feel sorry for him?" Lu Han pouted.

"Just remember."

Yuan Buwei began to sprinkle hemostatic and anti-inflammatory powder on Xie Linan's back: "But he really has some luck. I thought that the young marquis would inevitably have some bumps and bruises when he returned to the barracks, so I specially developed a powder that can stop bleeding and reduce inflammation. I just made a little bit, and it happened to be used by him. How effective it is."

"Sister-in-law, do you want to send a message to Mrs. Xie?" Lu Bing asked.

"He is currently having a conflict with the Xie family. Don't let the Xie family know about it for now. Give them the order later so that no one can gossip about him."

"it is good."

Lu Bing nodded and glanced down at Xie Linan's pale face: "He needs someone to watch over him in this state. Why don't I watch over him tonight?"

"Second brother, are you serious?" Lu Han was surprised.

"I know that he has a grudge against my eldest brother, but if he dies in Wanning Marquis Mansion, then we are doing something bad with good intentions. Besides, dealing with him while he is injured is not fair, and my eldest brother will not like it."

"What you said makes sense, but you still have to go to the store tomorrow. So, you stay for the first half of the night, and I'll stay for the second half."

"Hey, hey, hey, you two are treating me like I don't exist, right? You two should rest when you need to, I'll take care of him. He's just as important tonight as he was with the young marquis before, so Butler Ye and I will take care of him. We have experience."

Since the sister-in-law had spoken, the two naturally had nothing to say.

"Chenxiang, go and boil the medicine. You two can watch him first. I'll go back to my room and change my clothes and come over."

"it is good."

I still have to inform Lu Sui about Xie Linan’s matter.

Yuan Buwei changed her clothes and went to Lu Sui's room. Ning Xingzhou was there too, but he had a sour look on his face. When he saw her come in, he turned his head away and said nothing.

Yuan Buwei's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that Ning Xingzhou already knew that Yun Ling was pretending to be sick?

"Xingzhou, you've been here for almost two hours, why don't you go out and get some fresh air?"

"Young lady!"

Ning Xingzhou turned to Yuan Buwei and said, "Do you know that Yunling was not injured at all? Is she pretending?"

"It's a long story... Yunling..."

"How could you hide this from me together with her?" Ning Xingzhou's eyes suddenly turned red. "You know very well that I have already lost her once. If anything happens to her again, I..."

"Xingzhou, I was indeed inconsiderate on this matter. I apologize to you." Any more explanation would be unnecessary. He should apologize first, let Ning Xingzhou release his emotions, and then talk about the follow-up.

"I don't mean to blame you, I just think..."

"Xingzhou just feels that you didn't discuss it with him, which made him worry, and you don't treat him as your own." Lu Sui spoke Ning Xingzhou's inner thoughts.

"Xingzhou, you have been punishing yourself since you found out Yunling died. And this time, Yunling wanted to target Mu Qing. She didn't tell you because she was afraid you would reveal the truth."

"Do I look like such a tactless person?"

"I'm not saying you have no sense of propriety. In all seriousness, Yunling and I were the ones who made the mistake this time. Where is Yunling? Ask her to come over and apologize to you."

"She..." A trace of difficulty flashed across Ning Xingzhou's face.

"What's wrong?" Yuan Buwei looked at Ning Xingzhou, "Didn't Yunling come back with you?"

"She's back. As soon as she got back, Yunling confessed everything to Xingzhou. But Xingzhou got impatient and said the wrong thing. Yunling was so angry that she pushed him out of the room. I guess she's crying in her room right now."

"what?"

Yuan Buwei was really curious. Ning Xingzhou must have some ability to make Yun Ling angry even though she was clearly feeling guilty.

"I was just too worried about Yunling, and for a moment..." Ning Xingzhou clenched his fists, his face full of regret, "I really deserve to die. I clearly knew that she was different from before, but I still treated her like a flower in a greenhouse."
