My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.
Chapter 239 Is this his royal residence?
While Prince Duan was unconscious, Ji Yunshuang had already moved everything she could into her spatial dimension, and then took advantage of the chaos to leave the palace.
Instead of returning to the inn, she quietly slipped out of the city gates under the cover of night.
With such a big thing happening today, who knows what kind of changes might occur tomorrow.
She didn't want to waste her time in the city.
After leaving Ningcheng, she moved out of Tianrui and rode off to find Xia Biao.
In Ningcheng, although Prince Duan fainted, his orders before he fainted were immediately carried out by someone.
Soon, all the city gates of Ningcheng were placed under martial law, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.
Ordinary people didn't have much doubt about the official explanation. After all, the fire at Prince Duan's mansion last night almost alarmed the entire city of Ning.
Who among them doesn't know?
Besides protesting the fire at Prince Duan's mansion, some people were also secretly discussing who had the audacity to set fire to it.
Many people also felt sorry for the fire, thinking how many good things it must have destroyed!
Prince Duan, after being treated by the doctor, slowly woke up.
He woke up to find himself surrounded by charred ruins. For a moment, he was stunned by what he saw.
Is this his royal residence?
"Your Highness, you're awake?" Upon seeing him open his eyes, the head eunuch serving beside him immediately asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
Prince Duan frowned and remained silent. His head was still throbbing with pain, and he was even more shocked by the scene before him.
Seeing that he didn't speak but only frowned in pain, the chief eunuch immediately shouted, "Doctor Rui, come quickly and see what's wrong with the prince."
Rui Bingtian is the prince's physician. Last night, the prince's mansion caught fire, and many people were injured. After treating the prince, he led his men to treat the wounded in the mansion.
Upon hearing Steward Qin's words, he immediately grabbed his medical kit and ran over.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, reached out to check the prince's pulse, and said, "Your Highness, you need to rest now. Close your eyes, and I'll give you a few more acupuncture needles."
Prince Duan sat up and said, "I am fine, I do not need acupuncture."
Rui Bingtian hesitated, but seeing that Prince Duan had already summoned people and inquired about matters at his residence, he could only step aside.
Prince Duan summoned his guards and asked, "How is the fire?"
"The fire is all out." The head guard hesitated for a moment, then said, "That's right, the fire last night was too big, and many parts of the Prince's mansion were burned down..."
Without him saying anything, Prince Duan already sensed something was wrong. He pressed his temples and asked, "Where was everything burned?"
The head guard said, "Besides Yuexin Courtyard, where the fire first started, there were several other courtyards nearby. Most importantly... the main hall, the warehouse connected to the main hall, and several other warehouses in the manor were all burned down..."
As Prince Duan listened to his report, he nearly lost his breath and fainted again.
If he had only some suspicions before, he was now almost 100% certain that someone had been eyeing the Prince's Mansion for a long time, and his decision to deal with Yuexin Courtyard was exactly what the other party wanted.
Prince Duan now regrets the impulsive decision he made in a fit of anger last night.
However, more important than the lost property now are the things in the study, and the Han and Xu families.
He raised his hand, and Steward Qin immediately understood and helped him to his feet.
He immediately walked towards the location of the study, and seeing that the study had also been burned to ashes, he almost lost his footing and fell to the ground.
He looked at the guards responsible for watching over the study and asked, "What's going on here?"
The guards knelt down and begged for forgiveness, saying that they saw the fire coming and wanted to put it out to prevent the entire main hall from burning down, but the fire was too big and they were unable to stop it, and in the end the entire main hall burned down.
Suppressing his anger, Prince Duan said, "After this matter is resolved, go and accept your punishment yourself!"
The guards all responded, "Yes!"
Then, Prince Duan mustered his spirits and summoned people to ask if they had found the whereabouts of Lady Han and Lady Xu.
"It hasn't been found yet."
Prince Duan then asked, "Where is the arsonist?"
Meanwhile, Ji Yunshuang had already arrived at the village where Jiang Laoshi lived.
Yesterday, Xia Biao had already bought a lot of livestock such as pigs, sheep, chickens, and ducks from the villagers. He originally thought that Ji Yunshuang would come to him in the evening to make further arrangements.
But to his surprise, Ji Yunshuang didn't come at all last night, which made him very anxious.
Fortunately, I met Ji Yunshuang early this morning.
"Master!" Upon seeing Ji Yunshuang, Xia Biao immediately rushed forward like a happy little bird.
"How is it?" Ji Yunshuang asked, pulling on the reins.
As dawn approached, she put Tianrui back into her spatial storage and then changed to a carriage.
Xia Biao scratched his head and said, "Everything else is fine, but Uncle Jiang's grandson broke his leg. Master, can you help treat him?"
The Jiang family had always heard Xia Biao talk about his elders, and they all assumed that his elders were men.
Seeing Xia Biao address a woman as his master and ask him to treat his grandson's leg, Jiang Laoshi was a little confused and followed Xia Biao blankly.
"Where is the child? Take me to see him." Ji Yunshuang gave Xia Biao a deep look as she jumped off the carriage.
I never expected that he would change so much after the transformation.
Xia Biao was unaware of Ji Yunshuang's thoughts. When he saw Ji Yunshuang agree, he was overjoyed and hurriedly went to take the horse. He then said to Jiang Laoshi, who was following behind, "This is the master I told you about."
Jiang Laoshi finally snapped out of his daze and knelt down in front of Ji Yunshuang, saying, "Thank you, sir."
Ji Yunshuang stepped aside and said, "Grandma, please don't kneel anymore. Take me to see your grandson first! I need to check his injuries."
Xia Biao also hurriedly told Jiang to get up, saying that his master didn't care about such formalities.
Jiang Laoshi then got up and took Ji Yunshuang to see a doctor for his grandson. He also asked Grandma Jiang to quickly prepare food for the two benefactors.
"No need to trouble yourself, I brought some food with me, just heat it up." Ji Yunshuang had already put various snacks such as fried dough sticks, steamed buns, fried glutinous rice cakes, and flatbreads on the carriage.
She asked Xia Biao to take it out and share it so everyone could eat together.
Xia Biao's eyes lit up when he heard there was food in the carriage. He quickly took out the food and told Grandma Jiang not to bother.
"How can we do this!" Jiang Laoshi said helplessly, "You have helped us so much, how can we not even treat you to a meal?"
Yesterday, I suggested killing a chicken for this young man to eat, but he refused to eat it no matter what. I insisted that he give the chicken to his grandson to help him get better.
The last chicken mostly ended up in his own grandson's stomach.
Now, not only did he not invite them to dinner, but they also had to eat the food his family brought. How could he possibly accept that?
"Uncle, you've helped us a lot this time, so don't be so formal about these little things," Xia Biao said. "If you feel bad about it, then help me out more in the future."
Hearing him say that, Jiang Laoshi could no longer refuse, and solemnly said, "If there is anything you need from this old man, just tell me, and I will do my best."
Xia Biao said to Ji Yunshuang, "Master, I bought a lot of livestock yesterday, all thanks to Uncle Jiang."
There were too many livestock, and nowhere to put them. It was Uncle Jiang who came up with the idea; he cleared out his backyard for us to use.
After thanking the Jiang family, Ji Yunshuang went to examine Gou Dan's leg.
She frowned as soon as she saw Gou Dan's legs.
Jiang Laoshi immediately asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Is it incurable?"
Ji Yunshuang shook her head and said, "It's not that it can't be cured, but the child will suffer during the treatment."
Mr. Jiang said honestly, "The child is not afraid of suffering, as long as he can be cured."
Dog Egg also said sensibly, "Pretty sister, I'm not afraid of hardship. As long as my leg can be healed and I won't be a cripple, I'm willing to endure any hardship."
Looking at the child, who was about the same age as her daughter but was so thin that she was almost deformed, Ji Yunshuang felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
She said, "I will definitely cure you and make you lively and energetic again."
"Thank you, sister," Gou Dan said. "When I grow up, I will definitely repay you."
Ji Yunshuang smiled and said, "You don't need to repay me. Just grow up well."
She turned around, went back into the carriage, and, using the carriage as cover, took out medicine from her spatial storage and had the Jiang family brew it for her.
Then Xia Biao was instructed to select a few old hens from the livestock he had bought the day before, and to have the Jiang family stew them for Gou Dan.
The Jiang family accepted the medicine from Ji Yunshuang, but refused to accept the chicken she offered. Ji Yunshuang said, "This is to help Gou Dan recover. His health is too poor. If his health isn't improved, he might not be able to withstand the surgery I perform on him."
"Surgery?" The Jiang family members were all full of doubt.
Ji Yunshuang asked, "Has he seen a doctor before?"
Jiang nodded honestly, "I've seen it."
Ji Yunshuang said, "His leg is broken, but the doctor who treated him before didn't put the broken bone in the correct position. I have to break his almost healed leg bone and set it again. So, how can he take it if he doesn't recover properly?"
Upon hearing this, the Jiang family members were furious and cursed the doctor for cheating them out of their money.
He knelt down again to thank Ji Yunshuang, saying that if it weren't for her, his dog, Gou Dan, would have been ruined for life.
This time, the Jiang family did not refuse, but they all vowed in their hearts to properly thank Ji Yunshuang and Xia Biao.
Jiang Laoshi asked the two if they needed his help to guide them to the surrounding area to buy livestock.
Of course, we still need to buy it, but if the Jiang family has to do all the legwork, I'm afraid that afterwards, some people will suspect the Jiang family.
In fact, by this time, many people in the village were already discussing the Jiang family's purchase of livestock.
"Has the Jiang family suddenly become rich? How come they're buying so many livestock?"
"I heard it wasn't the Jiang family that bought them. Old Man Jiang was just helping to show the way. The one who actually bought those livestock was his relative."
"Just who is that relative of his that he is, that he's so rich? Wasn't he supposed to be a refugee from war?"
"I never imagined the Jiang family had such a wealthy relative! The Jiang family is probably going to be rich this time."
