I'm already dressed like a fool, what's wrong with taking the regent into the bridal chamb

After the bath, Chang Baicao applied medicine and bandaged Feng Yunxiao's wounds. The wounds became swollen after being soaked in water, so Chang Baicao had to clean them again.

"Judging from the location and depth of the wounds, they clearly intended to kill you."

Chang Baicao packed up his things and said, "How many people did you bring with you this time? With the help of those people you trained, how could they let you get hurt like this?"

After asking, he noticed Feng Junxiao's sullen and cruel gaze, and suddenly understood something, "Is there a thief inside?"

"Ok?"

Feng Junxiao's chest rose and fell slightly, and after a few breaths, it gradually calmed down. He said, "It's resolved."

"That's good."

Chang Baicao nodded, "Let's settle the accounts carefully, just in case..."

There were small noises coming from the roof, and Chang Baicao stopped talking and looked at Feng Yunxiao. At this moment, Mu Qian had already broken through the door and went out to chase the source of the sound.

"It's time to change the guards at the Marquis' Mansion."

Feng Junxiao didn't care and said coldly.

"When you're not here, no one dares to enter the Marquis' Mansion. Even someone with such profound Kung Fu wouldn't dare come in."

Chang Baicao finished cleaning up, "There are differences between men and women, and you shouldn't stay here with the master all the time. Wait until Chunyu finishes cleaning up the room, then go over."

"Okay, old man, stop talking."

Feng Junxiao held his brow and spoke impatiently.

Chang Baicao was about to retort when he heard Wen Qingzhi's faint voice calling from outside: "Chunyu..."

"master!"

Chang Baicao hurried out and came to Wen Qingzhi's side, "Master, are you awake?"

Wen Qingzhi had a splitting headache. She opened her eyes a crack and saw a magnified face. "It's you, Xiao Chang. Where's Chunyu?"

"Chun Yu is cleaning the wing rooms. The Prince Regent has returned, seriously injured, and will be staying at the mansion for a while."

Wen Qingzhi had a terrible headache at the moment, and looked dazed. "Why does he want to live here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Yunxiao, who was walking towards him, happened to hear it and said, "Any objections?"

Wen Qingzhi closed her eyes tightly, showing an impatient expression, "Pay me the money first."

Her throat hurt so much that speaking felt like being cut by a blade. After Wen Qingzhi said these three words, she was in so much pain.

She was not afraid of pain before, but for some reason, when she saw Feng Junxiao here, she felt pain all over her body.

"Get out quickly. I feel pain everywhere when I see you."

Wen Qingzhi really didn't want to see him, so she had to let him go quickly.

"Xiao Chang, call for the spring rain, I want some water."

"I'll pour it for you!"

Chang Baicao immediately put down the medicine box in his hand and poured water for Wen Qingzhi, feeding her. "The water is cold, Master, just moisten your lips, don't drink too much."

Wen Qingzhi was so thirsty that she didn't care about anything else.

He simply raised his hand, grabbed it, and drank it all in one gulp.

The cool water slid down her throat, making her feel much more comfortable.

After recovering from her shock, Wen Qingzhi glanced around the room in confusion, her gaze finally settling on Feng Yunxiao. After two seconds, she quickly looked away.

"What's that look in your eyes?"

Feng Junxiao was both angry and amused. He came to her side and asked, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

"Is there anything you want to tell me, Your Majesty?"

She asked back, throwing the question back to Feng Junxiao, who chuckled twice, "What do you want me to say?"

"Your Highness, just say whatever you want to say."

She propped herself up and sat up, leaning against the bed, looking at Feng Junxiao, "For example - how long will the prince stay with me?"

I thought Wen Qingzhi would at least ask me why I was injured, but I didn't expect her to say this.

But...it fits her personality.

"The matter of Little Fragrant Concubine was my negligence, and I have indeed wronged you. Afterwards, I will give you a satisfactory answer."

Having said that, Feng Junxiao was giving Wen Qingzhi enough face. If Wen Qingzhi didn't accept it, it would seem that she was not sensible.

"Then, should I also thank the Regent?"

"If you want to thank me, you can thank me anytime."

"Do not want to."

Wen Qingzhi curled the corners of her lips and chuckled, "Then I'll wait and see what kind of answer the Regent will give me."

There was disdain and disdain in her tone, as if she didn't believe Feng Junxiao's words at all.

That’s right, given Feng Junxiao’s current situation, no matter who he tells these words to, no one will believe it.

Feng Junxiao sighed softly, trembling and twitching at the wounds on his body. At this moment, he frowned slightly.

Mu Qian had been chasing them for a long time. Given his reach, and the fact that this was the capital, a large-scale pursuit would surely alert the Zhentian Prefecture. But after all this time, there had been no sign of any movement. Could it be...

Just as he was thinking, there was a whoosh sound outside, followed by the sound of chaotic footsteps.

"Your Majesty."

The next second, Mu Qian appeared at the door with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

He appeared in front of Feng Junxiao in a disheveled state, his face revealing an embarrassment that could not be concealed.

"Ran?"

Mu Qian shook his head. "He's dead. He was a determined warrior. I fought him for a long time, and when he saw no chance of escape, he swallowed poison and committed suicide."

"It is my fault for failing in my duty. Your Highness, please punish me."

Feng Junxiao looked at Mu Qian and finally said, "Go down."

Mu Qian clasped his fists and nodded in his heart, "Yes."

The moment Mu Qian left, Wen Qingzhi also looked at him and watched him leave.

After he left, Wen Qingzhi looked at Feng Yunxiao and saw that he had a calm expression and didn't say much.

"Brother Mu Qian, are you injured?"

Wen Qingzhi heard Chunyu's puzzled voice from outside. Her expression changed instantly and she immediately shouted, "Chunyu, come in quickly, I'm thirsty!"

"The slave is here!"

Chunyu immediately said goodbye to Mu Qian and hurried into the house. Seeing that Wen Qingzhi had woken up, she was so happy that tears welled up in her eyes. "Girl, you're finally awake!"

Seeing Chunyu's chubby little face, Wen Qingzhi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled comfortably, "Yeah, I'm awake and hungry too."

"Hehe, I know you'll be hungry when you wake up! I asked my maid to prepare some food early in the morning, and it's warming on the stove!"

She smiled triumphantly, "I'll bring it to you right away!"

Chunyu turned to leave, but Wen Qingzhi stopped her, "No hurry, tell me first, has anything happened at home while I was unconscious?"

"Yes."

Chunyu responded and stepped forward to tell Wen Qingzhi everything that had happened. When she mentioned Feng Yunxiao, she stuttered twice, and only continued after Wen Qingzhi comforted her.

From Chunyu, I learned that Jiang Yao and her son had been successfully sent to the farm, and new maids and old women had been bought to serve her.

"The young lady naturally doesn't want to do this, but there's nothing she can do. My father told her not to run around. Wild animals are likely to roam the wilderness."

Wen Qingzhi hummed, "Also, send someone to secretly watch them, to make sure nothing happens to them."
