The prince stepped on me to get to the top, I angrily flirted with the enemy's hostage

Only the madam and Su Rou were left, and they stared at each other in an extremely awkward atmosphere.

Su Rou turned her eyes away and said guiltily, "Do you believe me when I say he's a little pervert?"

She asked cautiously, worried that Gong Yu had said something he shouldn't have to the madam when she was away.

Unexpectedly, the madam sighed, bent down, and helped her up. "Xin~ Can you still walk? I'll take you back."

Su Rou asked, "Where are you going back to?"

The madam said, "The Governor's Mansion. We've been living there while you were away. Hongluan Tower has burned down now, so we can only treat that place as our home."

Su Rou choked. She had just been to the governor's mansion tonight.

Su Rou said, "Doesn't Gong Yu need help?"

The madam said, "The general is here, so there's no problem. Don't worry too much. But it's you, how did you get yourself into such a mess?"

Su Rou can walk, of course, because her injured part is not her leg.

But when I walked, I couldn't help shivering.

She always felt that the arrow seemed to have just grazed her bones, causing them to ache every time she took a few steps.

The madam noticed something was wrong with her and said, "If you can't walk anymore, tell me and I'll go to the governor's mansion and ask someone to help carry you back. But the safest place in Jingzhou City tonight is the governor's mansion."

Su Rou waved her hands to indicate that she was fine.

It was not until she arrived at the governor's mansion that she realized what the madam meant.

The last time she came here, there were no guards outside, but now, there were already so many soldiers deployed.

The soldier at the door saw her and bowed respectfully, "Miss Su."

Beads of sweat the size of beans had already appeared on Su Rou's forehead, and the sweat wet her cheeks.

By the time she reached the stairs, she was completely exhausted.

The madam supported her and said, "What are you standing there for? Come and help me."

The soldiers remained unmoved, while the girls from Hongluan Tower in the yard were the first to rush out.

"Sister Rou." A Tian stood behind the gate of the governor's mansion and called her softly.

Several girls from Hongluan Tower dragged her together and pulled her in from outside the door.

In the yard, in addition to the people from Hongluan Tower, there were also some women and children who were sent in for refuge.

Su Rou fell to the ground powerlessly, gasping for breath.

The madam was anxious and shouted, "Where's the doctor? Hurry!"

Su Rou was carried into a room. She sat naked on the bed and squeezed out a soothing word with difficulty, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Outside the gauze curtain, a large crowd of girls from Hongluan Tower stood there.

Even through a layer of gauze, one could see the dense scars on her body.

The one who treated Su Rou's wound was the doctor's young apprentice, a woman.

In fact, as soon as this little disciple came in, the girls standing at the door all understood the relationship between Su Rou and Gong Yu.

"Come and help me get two basins of cold water." The young apprentice carried the medicine box over the threshold and sat down beside the bed.

The madam said, "Oh, I'll do it!"

The young disciple's hand gently touched the edge of her wound, and Su Rou couldn't help but shiver.

Her wound was very painful, so the little disciple's hand was like a feather, gently scratching her wound.

"Captain Su, the arrow has a barb on the front. I can only help you remove it along the way."

Su Rou nodded rapidly, "Hurry up."

The young apprentice's hands were steady. "Let me help you break the arrow first."

Su Rou nodded and said nothing more this time. Veins popped out on her forehead and her whole face turned red.

"Has Captain Su been seriously injured before?"

Su Rou was in so much pain that her nose was about to burst. Why was this young doctor talking so much?

Just as she was about to speak, the little disciple reached out his hand in front of her and pulled out the arrow.

Blood splattered on the bed, staining the silk cloth beneath her and the gauze curtains hanging by the window red.

The madam came in hurriedly from outside with a girl, carrying a basin of water.

Seeing this scene, the madam couldn't help but gasp.

Su Rou frowned even more and fell on the bed, scaring the madam and the other girls.

"Arou!"

The young disciple held out his hand, "Don't come over here, I need to stop her bleeding."

Su Rou lay on the bed and relaxed for a while before she recovered a little...

She breathed in the air in big gulps, and until now, she hadn't uttered a single word.

The young disciple said, "Captain Su, please bear with it. Your previous injury seems to have damaged your bones, and this injury has re-damaged your recently healed wound, so it will be very painful."

Su Rou's blood soon soaked the entire basin of water, and she fainted from the pain several times.

The madam held her in her arms, asked her to rest her head on her knees, and soothed her softly, "It's okay, it's okay. Just apply some medicine and you'll be fine."

Su Rou's eyes were filled with tears, and she sniffed, "It hurts so much!!!"

The madam smiled and said, "It's okay."

The young disciple bandaged her wound and threw the cloth soaked with Su Rou's blood into the basin.

"Fortunately, you are stronger than most women, otherwise you wouldn't have the strength to shout right now."

Su Rou said, "Thank you very much."

If she were to do it herself, there would be no way for her to remove the arrow properly.

The young disciple said, "Captain, you are too kind. I will leave now. There are people around the general who need me."

Su Rou nodded, and as soon as the young disciple left, the madam also asked the girls in Hongluan Tower to leave.

"Creaky..." The two doors closed gently, and only the madam and she were left in the room.

"Arou, is your last name Su?" The madam's voice came slowly from my ear.

Su Rou, who was originally lying in the madam's arms, suddenly stiffened and rolled down silently. She covered herself with the quilt, turned her back and no longer looked at the madam.

"I'm so sleepy and my injury hurts so much. I want to sleep."

The madam didn't want to let her go just like that, so she placed her hand gently on her arm without using any force.

But this made Su Rou even more scared.

"The Su of the famous General Su of the Northern Kingdom?"

Su Rou pulled the corner of her mouth and said in a pretentious manner, "How could I have such a good background? I'm just a straw bag! I'm not, I don't have it."

"When you came in just now, General Gong's guards called you Miss Su, and just now, the girl who treated you called you Captain Su. If you don't want to admit it, that's fine. I will tell the girls in Hongluan Tower later that you haven't come back because you despise our Hongluan Tower for being poor, which is why you've been away for so long."

The madam sighed in mock sorrow, let go of Su Rou, and sat up beside the bed. "You know, when you were away these days, they kept talking about you, afraid that you were in danger or kidnapped by bad guys. They kept saying they wanted to go out and look for you. Oh, and Tian, she couldn't bear to eat the cakes that General Gong gave her. She hid them in her quilt, saying that she would share them with you when you came back."

This old brothel owner is really hard to fool since Gong Yu showed up.

Perhaps the only way for her to make the madam give up the idea was to take out Yuxi and tell her that she was the emperor.

But she couldn't get it out.

Su Rou said, "It's not that I don't want to admit it, but in the eyes of some people, I should be dead. I didn't want to bring disaster to Hongluan Tower, so I chose to leave. If you all died because of me, I would really feel guilty..."

Seeing that she had relaxed, the madam softened her tone a little, turned around and pinched her nose.

"I don't want to embarrass you. When General Gong led his troops to find Hongluan Tower, I was still trying my best to cover it up for you. You are not honest at all! What if General Gong killed so many people that he just killed me right then and there?"

Su Rou muttered in a low voice, "The Gong family wouldn't kill people like crazy."

The madam looked at her helplessly, "You know General Gong, but we don't. When you were sent here, you were covered in knife wounds. I should have thought your background was not that simple. Who could have expected that you were actually a legitimate official's daughter..."

The madam looked troubled, as if she felt that her identity had put Hongluanlou in a difficult position. "That lord from the Gong family who helped you cover up back then, was he also a fake?"

Su Rou lowered her head, not daring to look at the madam's expression. Her identity was a huge trouble for ordinary people.

She nodded twice and said, "She was my father's second wife who ran away."

The madam had a look of sudden enlightenment on her face. "No wonder, you two don't look like mother and daughter, nor do you look like enemies."

Su Rou's eyes wandered around the house. The house was magnificent, and she was really afraid that the madam would ask for something from her after knowing her identity.

Seeing her absent-mindedness, the madam reached out and patted her head. "They're all very worried about you. I'll keep your identity a secret for you, but tomorrow, you need to explain to them why you left. Even if you have to find an excuse, don't make them worry so much."
