I fulfilled the female supporting role's wish and I succeeded

The hall master's heart sank completely into the ice cellar. It was indeed because of those two people.

She was so frightened that her forehead banged against the cold bluestone slab.

"Your Highness, please understand! I... I didn't know Jiang Li... I didn't know that girl was your Highness's person!"

"If I knew, even if I had a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to touch them!"

"This... there must be a misunderstanding! Your Highness, please investigate!"

Xiao Heng stood aside, with a faint curve at the corner of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes.

He looked at the ugly appearance of the hall master, who was like two different people before and after, and felt bored.

Su Luo ignored her excuses, his voice still cold, and asked directly: "Where is Jiang Li? Where is the girl she took in?"

Just as he finished speaking, there was a burst of hurried footsteps coming from the gate, accompanied by panicked shouts.

A figure stumbled in. It was Xue Fangfei who had returned.

She saw the solemn scene in the courtyard at a glance, saw the people from the Chastity Hall kneeling on the ground, and also saw Su Luo, who was sitting at the top under the lights with a cold and majestic expression.

That was the noble man who saved her two days ago!

Xue Fangfei seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, her face lost all color, and she fell to her knees in front of Su Luo with a thud, her voice hoarse and filled with tears.

"My dear! Please save Miss Jiang Li! Please save her!"

She kowtowed heavily, her forehead hitting the ground with a dull thud, anxious and desperate.

Su Luo stood up suddenly, and her movement brought up a breeze, and the hem of her skirt brushed across the ground.

"Where is she? Take me to see her." There was unquestionable urgency in her voice.

Then, she turned her head, her eyes fell on Xinghen, her tone cold.

"Xinghen, keep an eye on this place. No one is allowed to escape."

Xinghen nodded slightly, his figure nailed to the spot like a nail, his sharp eyes scanning the people who were kneeling and trembling on the ground.

Xue Fangfei quickly got up, not caring about her embarrassment, and pointed towards the backyard with trembling hands.

"In... in the woodshed..."

She staggered and turned to lead the way, Su Luo and Xiao Heng followed closely behind, and Song Lan also hurriedly caught up.

Walking through the dim and dilapidated corridors, the air was filled with dampness and mold, which formed a stark contrast with the cool fragrance on Su Luo's body.

Finally, Xue Fangfei stopped in front of a dilapidated wooden door.

She pushed the door open with force, and a stronger musty smell mixed with a faint smell of blood hit her in the face.

The light in the woodshed was dim, with only a small oil lamp flickering with a faint glow.

Tong'er was standing by the simple wooden bed, trying to wipe something with a cloth, her face full of tears and anxiety.

Hearing the noise, Tong'er turned around suddenly and saw Xue Fangfei first, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes.

"Ahri, did you find someone?"

Then, her gaze passed Xue Fangfei and fell on Su Luo who walked in later.

The imposing demeanor and extraordinary attire made her understand instantly.

Tong'er immediately dropped the towel in her hand, rolled over and crawled to her knees in front of Su Luo, kowtowed desperately, and her forehead soon became red and swollen.

"My dear! Please save my young lady! I beg you! Tong'er kowtows to you!"

Her cries were shrill and filled with desperate pleas.

Su Luo's gaze fell on the dying figure on the bed, his brows furrowed.

"Get up."

There was a barely perceptible heaviness in her voice.

"Let me see it."

Su Luo walked quickly forward and squatted beside the bed.

Jiang Li lying on the bed was as pale as paper, her lips were chapped, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, her clothes were stained with blood, and her breathing was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.

She stretched out her slender fingers and gently placed them on Jiang Li's wrist.

A weak and disorderly pulse beat could be felt at the fingertips.

Su Luo's expression became more and more solemn.

This body is not only suffering from external injuries, but also from long-term malnutrition leading to deficiency of Qi and blood. What's more serious is that there is also a hidden heart disease.

The beating and shock almost drained all her vitality.

If Xue Fangfei hadn't called for help in time, I'm afraid...

Su Luo withdrew his hand, and the coldness in his eyes became even stronger.

She turned to Isatis and instructed, "Isatis, golden needle."

Songlan immediately took out an exquisite brocade box from the medicine box she carried with her and opened it. Inside, golden needles of different lengths were neatly arranged, gleaming faintly in the dim light.

Su Luo took a few golden needles, twisted them with his fingertips, and inserted them into several important acupoints on Jiang Li's body accurately and quickly.

The bleeding from the wound where the needle was inserted, which was originally bleeding slightly, seemed to decrease immediately.

Jiang Li's tightly furrowed brows seemed to relax a little.

"Bring the medicine." Su Luo ordered again.

Song Lan handed over a small white jade bottle.

"Songlan, Tong'er, you two should work together to carefully apply the medicine to her. Be gentle."

Su Luo stood up and watched the two people begin to carefully treat the wounds on Jiang Li's body, his eyes becoming deep again.

She remembered that in the original plot, the head of the Chastity Hall had an affair with a Taoist priest from a nearby Taoist temple and behaved inappropriately.

To deal with these people, there must be a legitimate reason.

She walked to the door of the woodshed and said solemnly to the guards waiting outside, "Go, raise all the lanterns in the yard to their highest height for me."

Although the guards didn't understand what was going on, they didn't dare to delay and immediately took the order and left.

A moment later, the lanterns that had originally only illuminated a part of the courtyard were hung high, and the entire courtyard of the Chaste Hall was instantly as bright as day, leaving almost no place to hide.

The hall master, who was kneeling in the courtyard, heard the noise and looked up to see the sudden bright light, as if he was pierced by an invisible sword.

It’s over.

The eldest princess knows everything!

She doesn't even let go of those secret things!

The hall master's eyes went dark and he collapsed completely to the ground, losing even the strength to beg for mercy.

Su Luo's voice came from afar, cold and ruthless.

"Tie up this hall master, take her back to her room, and assign someone to watch her."

"The rest of the people will be detained and kept under strict guard!"

The guards immediately stepped forward, dragged the limp hall master away, and took the other women who were trembling with fear to another place.

Xiao Heng walked to Su Luo's side and looked at her cold profile, which looked particularly majestic under the light.

"Sister, have you found any clues?" he asked in a low voice, with a hint of inquiry in his tone.

Su Luo glanced at the dilapidated and dirty courtyard and said lightly, "It's just a place where filth and dirt are hidden."

Not long after, Tong'er and Xue Fangfei came out supporting each other and knelt in front of Su Luo again.

Jiang Li's injuries were temporarily stabilized and her fever subsided a little. The two of them felt relieved and were grateful to Su Luo beyond words.

"Thank you, Princess, for saving my life!"

Su Luo asked them to stand up, his eyes fell on Tong'er, and he asked, "Tong'er, I want to ask you, in the past ten years, has the Jiang family ever sent anyone to visit Miss Jiang Li?"

When Tong'er heard this, her eyes turned red and she shook her head vigorously, her voice filled with sadness and resentment that was hard to conceal.

"Your Highness, not once."

"After being sent here, the young lady has never left this mountain. Apart from the people in the Chaste Maiden Hall, no one outside has ever seen the young lady."

Ten years of separation, ten years of hardship.

Su Luo understood and had a better understanding of the Jiang family's coldness and ruthlessness.
