The whole family was brutally murdered? The ruthless heiress's eldest daughter went berserk aft

Murong Xuewei didn't want to discuss with Liuli anymore who was smarter between her and Gu Ye, so she turned to ask, "Did you come here for something?"

Liuli then remembered the important matter, took out a letter from her bosom, and handed it to Murong Xuewei.

"This was sent by Young Master Xuan, who said to give it to you."

Murong Xuewei took the letter and began to read it, feeling increasingly heavy-hearted as she read.

Murong Xuewei closed the letter, but her brows remained furrowed.

Liuli asked with some concern, "Madam, what's wrong? What did Young Master Yuxuan say in his letter?"

Murong Xuewei placed the letter on the table. "A few days ago, my aunt suddenly fell into the water and developed a high fever. My cousin wanted to call a doctor, but the guards stopped him and wouldn't let him out."

"What? The First Madam is sick with a high fever! It can be fatal! Why are those guards stopping Young Master Yu Xuan?"

Murong Xuewei lowered her eyes, her gaze filled with anger. "This must have been Xiao Wanning's idea, trying to teach our family a lesson. After all, the Murong family just embarrassed her at the palace banquet, and the royal family will definitely make amends. I just didn't expect them to be so ruthless. They actually tried to threaten my aunt's life."

Liuli was a little anxious. "Madam, what should we do? Why don't we go and bring the First Madam to the General's Mansion?"

Murong Xuewei lowered her head, lost in thought, and remained silent.

Liuli remembered running around in circles, "Madam, if it's inconvenient for you to go, then let me go. My lowly life is worthless, but if I can save Madam's life, it will be worth it!"

As Liuli finished speaking, she prepared to leave.

Murong Xuewei gave a cold snort and called Liuli back.

"Liuli, come back."

"Madam, this high fever can't wait, it could be fatal!" Liuli stamped her feet anxiously.

“I know you’re doing this for your aunt’s sake, trying to save her, but you can’t act impulsively. If you leave any leverage in the hands of the royal family, they’ll tear you apart and drink your blood, leaving not even bone fragments behind,” Murong Xuewei comforted Liuli.

"Then what should we do? Just watch the First Madam die?"

"No, I will definitely not let anything happen to my aunt."

Murong Xuewei forced herself to calm down; in her previous life, there was no incident of her aunt falling into the water.

It seems that in this life, her cousin rejected Xiao Wan Ning's request for donations at the palace banquet, which is why she fell into the water.

Xiao Wan Ning now knows Murong Xue Wei's true identity, and she thinks that she is doing this to force Murong Xue Wei to come forward and admit her identity.

Then take the opportunity to suppress the Murong family.

How can I get a doctor for my aunt without revealing my identity?

Just as Murong Xuewei was struggling with her dilemma, Gu Ye suddenly returned.

Seeing Gu Ye return, Murong Xuewei asked in confusion, "Why is the general back again?"

Gu Ye was holding a box of pastries. "These were sent by Zhao Huaizhen through someone. He said they were local specialties sent by the people of Tongniu County to thank you."

Murong Xuewei no longer had the mind to care about local specialties.

"Oh, General, put it aside! I'll open it later."

Gu Ye noticed that Murong Xuewei's expression was off. When he left just now, Murong Xuewei's expression was fine, so how could her expression have become so bad in such a short time?

"What's wrong? You don't look well."

Murong Xuewei forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Really? I'm perfectly fine."

Gu Ye stepped forward and took Murong Xuewei's hand with concern. "I told you, if you have any worries, you can tell me, and I will definitely find a way to help you."

Murong Xuewei's delicate face was filled with conflict, unsure whether she should speak or not.

Finally, Liuli, growing anxious, said, "Madam, why don't you tell the General? The more people who know, the more solutions we can come up with!"

Murong Xuewei sighed, "Alas! It's because of my aunt's matter."

"Aunt? The Murong family on Yongping Street in the capital?"

Murong Xuewei nodded and took out the letter she had just received. "This is a letter my cousin sent through someone. It says that my aunt accidentally fell into the water a few days ago and has had a high fever ever since. The guards at the gate refused to let my cousin's family out and wouldn't let them get a doctor. Now my aunt's life is in imminent danger."

Gu Ye took the letter, glanced at it, and folded it neatly. "What's so difficult about that? I'll just take the doctor and sneak over the wall to get my aunt treated without anyone noticing."

Gu Ye's words made Murong Xuewei's eyes light up. "Yes! How come I didn't think of this method?"

Gu Ye affectionately patted Murong Xuewei's head, "How could a sheltered young lady like you think of these things?"

Murong Xuewei disagreed with Gu Ye's statement.

"I really didn't expect that, because I've never tried it before. I'm not the kind of sheltered young lady you're talking about," Murong Xuewei said, somewhat unconvinced.

With her small head stubbornly looking at Gu Ye, Murong Xuewei even stood on tiptoe to try and close the height difference between them.

This action might seem very domineering to others, but Gu Ye found it quite adorable.

"Yes, you are the most powerful person in charge of the Murong family, not a sheltered young lady. As the person in charge, do you still need me to bring a doctor to treat your aunt?"

Hearing that Gu Ye had given in, Murong Xuewei stood back up, saying, "Of course I want that. By the way, I want to go with you."

Gu Ye looked at Murong Xuewei in surprise, "You want to come along?"

"Of course, you're unfamiliar with the Murong family's place. What if you get lost and can't find the master bedroom?"

Gu Ye raised an eyebrow. "Alright then! We'll trouble you to lead the way, Madam."

That night.

Murong Xuewei wrapped her arms around Gu Ye's neck, while Gu Ye supported Murong Xuewei's waist with one hand. With a light tap of his foot, the two of them entered.

The doctor following behind also tiptoed in.

Murong Xuewei looked at the doctor in surprise, "Wow! So you know kung fu, doctor! I thought Gu Ye would have to go back to pick you up after dropping me off!"

The doctor walked past Murong Xuewei with a hint of annoyance, asking, "Where is the patient?"

Murong Xuewei then realized that they had come to see a doctor and hurriedly led the way, saying, "I'll lead the way."

So Murong Xuewei, along with the doctor and Gu Ye, walked around the garden for half a day without reaching the master bedroom.

In the end, Gu Ye couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Come with me!"

With Gu Ye leading the way, things were much better, and they found the master bedroom in no time.

Murong Xuewei anxiously pushed open the door, where Murong's eldest uncle and aunt, along with Murong Yuxuan and Murong Qingyu, were all waiting.

Murong Xuewei stepped forward and asked, "Cousin, how is Aunt?"

Murong Yuxuan kept his head down and didn't speak, but simply pointed to the bed.

Murong Xuewei rushed over anxiously, "Aunt, please check on her. Xuewu has brought a doctor for you."

As she spoke, Murong Xuewei pulled the doctor over, saying, "Please take a look at my aunt."

The doctor reluctantly pulled away from Murong Xuewei's hand, took out a silk handkerchief from the box, placed it on his aunt's wrist, and began to take her pulse.

Seeing Murong Xuewei's worried expression, Gu Ye walked over to comfort her, "It's alright, Aunt will be safe."

Murong Yuxuan looked up when she heard the sound and found that Gu Ye had also arrived.

"Brother Gu, what brings you here?"

Murong Xuewei looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression, "You two know each other?"
