"With your current situation, I'm afraid it won't work."

Wen Qingzhi said bluntly, "Right now, you're already in a precarious situation. The Yuan family happens to be a favorite of the Emperor. If you start a conflict with them over my personal affairs, you won't be helping me, but will only drag yourself down."

"I've endured it all these years, so I don't care about this moment. If Your Majesty really wants to help me, why don't you think about how to survive safely until the end."

She had a distant smile on her lips. "If you can't survive, it's useless to say anything. Only by living can you do many things."

"Can this king believe that you care about me?"

He understood Wen Qingzhi's personality. As the saying goes, a cat can't spit out ivory.

"If you want to think so, I have nothing to say."

Wen Qingzhi straightened her dress and sat down dignifiedly. "Have you dealt with all the affairs at your house?"

"almost."

What Feng Yunxiao meant by "almost" was basically that it had been handled.

"That's good."

The carriage was bumpy all the way, and Feng Junxiao was injured in many places, so he felt very uncomfortable sitting.

He changed several postures and frowned repeatedly.

Wen Qingzhi noticed his action and casually took off her cloak and handed it to Feng Yunxiao, "Put it under you, it will make you more comfortable."

Feng Junxiao didn't take the bloodstained cloak she handed him. Wen Qingzhi also noticed the blood stain on the cloak and thought he disliked it, so she reached out to take it back.

Feng Yunxiao suddenly reached out and held down her hand as she was about to withdraw it, saying, "It's not that I dislike it, but your clothes shouldn't be used as a cushion under someone else's body."

After saying that, he took it with both hands and covered himself with it.

Wen Qingzhi's cloak had always been fumigated with incense by Chunyu in the past. The faint sandalwood scent on it made Feng Junxiao's brows relax.

"I'm seriously injured, and I don't trust ordinary doctors, so you should take care of me."

"it is good."

"There's no one left in the Marquis' Mansion. After what happened today, that person will soon understand. Why don't you..."

He wanted to say that it would be safer for her to go back home with him.

But this was really inappropriate, and he swallowed it back when it came to his lips.

"If you have anything to say, just say it."

Wen Qingzhi couldn't stand his hesitant look and frowned unhappily.

Feng Junxiao pursed his lips and said, "Nothing."

"Your injuries won't heal for a month or so. Going back and forth between the Marquis's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion will eventually lead to gossip. The Marquis's Mansion is unsafe right now. If you don't mind, I'll stay with you for a while until your injuries are almost healed."

She also had selfish motives for doing this. Feng Yunxiao's residence was safer than the Marquis's mansion. Chunyu was seriously injured and would need a long time to recover. If she could stay in the prince's mansion, she wouldn't have to worry about Chunyu's safety while treating her.

After all, some people are not brave enough to assassinate the Regent's Palace.

"it is good."

Feng Yunxiao agreed immediately, "Then go back to the palace directly. I will send someone to arrange what you need."

"It's okay, I don't need anything. Just find me a safe and quiet place in the courtyard. Chunyu is seriously injured and needs to rest."

"can."

After the two of them made the agreement, Feng Junxiao felt very tired and leaned against the carriage, slowly closing his eyes and resting.

He didn't know why, but he always felt safe when he was with Wen Qingzhi. Even in the wilderness, he could fall asleep peacefully.

In order to avoid the other party's eyes, Wen Qingzhi drove the carriage to the back door of the palace. After Zhang Ye came out to ask, she explained the reason inside and let Zhang Ye lead the carriage in.

After entering the yard, she woke Feng Yunxiao up and had someone carry him in.

Before leaving, Feng Junxiao did not forget to instruct Zhang Ye to clean the yard next to his and let Wen Qingzhi move in.

As for Chunyu and Changyan who lived with her, he already knew where they were at the moment.

Zhang Ye was not surprised by this order, but was happy to do it.

In less than half an hour, Zhang Ye and his servants cleaned Yilan Pavilion inside and out.

"Miss, do you want me to go to the Marquis' Mansion and pick up Miss Chunyu and Miss Changyan?"

"It's okay, I'll take care of it."

Wen Qingzhi smiled at him and glanced at the servants standing nearby. "However, there is one thing I need to trouble you with. Zhang Ye, please make me some hot soup. I'll need it later."

"Also, I'll write you a list and ask you to help with the shopping."

"Yes."

After Zhang Ye finished speaking, he invited Wen Qingzhi in.

The furnishings in Yilan Pavilion were very simple, with only the necessary furniture. Thinking of Wen Qingzhi's delicate body, Zhang Ye prepared several thick quilts and made the bed soft.

There is a bedroom on each side of the main house, and there is a private room next to it, which is prepared for Chunyu so that she can take care of Wen Qingzhi and Chang Yan.

"There are only a few maids in the mansion, no young, sensible maids. I'll go take a look later and buy two for the young lady."

"No need."

Wen Qingzhi said, "I'm not used to being served by others. Besides, you can just have someone bring some food every day. There's no need to send extra people to serve. Just leave two people outside to guard."

Her meaning was very clear: she didn't need anyone, and if Feng Junxiao was worried, she could just arrange for someone to come over.

"The master said that everything will be arranged by the young lady."

Zhang Ye understood Wen Qingzhi's temperament. Since she had said so much, it would be impolite for him to say anything more.

"Thank you."

Wen Qingzhi felt tired after relaxing. She quickly wrote down what she needed and handed it to Zhang Ye. "Thank you for your help."

"You're joking, girl. I'll do it right away."

"it is good."

As soon as Zhang Ye left, Wen Qingzhi opened the space and went in to check on Chunyu's situation.

As long as she closed her eyes, she could imagine the little girl covered in wounds. She suddenly felt like she didn't know how to explain this to Chunyu's parents.

A good child was left to me, and soon after, he almost died... This kind of thing is unacceptable no matter who says it.

Forced by the previous situation, she took a quick look at Chunyu's injuries and her first reaction was that she could not be saved.

They were basically just superficial injuries, not fatal, but for a woman, it was very difficult to live with all these ugly scars.

When she entered the space, she happened to see Chang Yan bandaging Chun Yu's wound and finishing the work.

"How's the spring rain?"

Chang Yan, who had been in a state of extreme tension, relaxed instantly after hearing Wen Qingzhi's voice, and slid down limply.

Fortunately, Wen Qingzhi was quick and caught her.

"Chang Yan!"

Chang Yan looked tired, panting and shaking her head, "I, I'm fine. It's just that I've never used so many instruments like you have alone, so I felt a little uncomfortable for a while. Several times, I almost used the wrong instrument..."

"It's okay, you're already great."

Wen Qingzhi knew, just like how she felt when she first performed surgery on someone else, "It's okay, you've done a great job."

Chang Yan nodded, "Chun Yu's injury... is very serious."

Unable to bear it any longer, she looked up at Chunyu and cursed, "Those people are truly beasts! How could they do such a cruel thing to a child! Some of those wounds were so deep that they penetrated the bone!"
