The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor

Meanwhile, Feng Yuhan had just come out of the snow mountain. He had only gone to arrange some things with his guards when he came out and saw Li Muxia walking alone into the depths of the forest. Without thinking, he followed her.

As soon as Feng Yuhan reached "Li Muxia's" side, he was ambushed by more than a dozen experts. Feng Yuhan quickly rushed forward to embrace "Li Muxia," only to discover that the person was an imposter. By the time Feng Yuhan realized what was happening, the fake Li Muxia had already stabbed him in the abdomen with a poisoned dagger. Feng Yuhan quickly lost the ability to resist. In the end, it was only thanks to the intervention of the Shadow Pavilion's agents that Feng Yuhan was rescued and taken to a Shadow Pavilion spy camp in a nearby town to recuperate.

The poison inflicted on Feng Yuhan was difficult to cure. Several doctors from the Shadow Pavilion were helpless. In the end, it was only when one of the older doctors gave Feng Yuhan his unique antidote pill that the poison was temporarily suppressed. However, this was only a temporary solution and the root cause needed to be addressed. An antidote had to be developed as soon as possible.

While Feng Yuhan was recuperating, he received a letter from Qingyun saying that Li Muxia had been kidnapped. He suspected that it was Prince Huai, Nangong Huaiyuan, who was responsible. However, there were many experts secretly guarding the Prince Huai's residence, so he couldn't get in at all.

Upon receiving the news, Feng Yuhan disregarded the doctor's advice and rode at full speed to the capital of Nanling Kingdom to meet up with Qingyun.

The Shadow Pavilion has many properties in the capital. Right now, Feng Yuhan is in one of the inns, looking at Qingyun kneeling on the ground.

"Your subordinate is incompetent and failed to protect Miss Xia. Please punish me, Master," Qingyun said guiltily.

Qingyun didn't know that Xia Mu was Li Muxia; the only people in the entire Shadow Pavilion who knew were Feng Yuhan and Zhu Feng.

Feng Yuhan did not blame Qingyun, because he knew how formidable Nangong Huaiyuan was. He had fought with Nangong Huaiyuan several times, and his martial arts were no less than his own.

Feng Yuhan was also very worried about Li Muxia. After all, Nangong Huaiyuan was not a good person and would do anything to achieve his goals. He guessed that Nangong Huaiyuan had probably captured Li Muxia to lure him out.

Qingyun looked at Feng Yuhan's pale lips and asked, "Master, you... are you injured?"

Feng Yuhan waved his hand and said, "It's alright. What's the situation now? Have you found out Xia Mu's exact location?"

Qingyun quickly replied, "I have broken into the Prince Huai's mansion several times, and although I was forced to retreat each time, I have also found out that Miss Xia lives in the Liuli Courtyard on the east side of the mansion. There are at least five experts secretly guarding the courtyard. I am incompetent and no match for them, so I was unable to bring Miss Xia out."

After listening to Qingyun's words, Feng Yuhan fell into deep thought: Nangong Huaiyuan placed Li Muxia in the Liuli Courtyard instead of the dungeon, which meant that Li Muxia was still useful to Nangong Huaiyuan. Therefore, it meant that Li Muxia's current situation was not dangerous.

With this in mind, Feng Yuhan was no longer in such a hurry.

"Send me all the information about Nangong Huaiyuan," Feng Yuhan coldly ordered.

Meanwhile, Nangong Yufeng and Shangguan Jingye were also constantly trying to find ways to save Li Muxia.

Just after Nangong Yufeng's third failed challenge against the guards of the Prince Huai's mansion, the two also realized that they could not rescue Li Muxia by force.

Shangguan Jingye said angrily, "This Prince Huai is really too much. What exactly does he mean by this?"

Nangong Yufeng looked at Shangguan Jingye with a guilty expression and said, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault that Xia Mu was dragged into this."

Seeing Nangong Yufeng's guilty expression, Shangguan Jingye didn't know what to say. However, he couldn't just sit and wait for his fate; he had promised his master to take good care of his junior sister.

"No, I still have to go to the Prince Huai's residence. Even if I can't rescue my junior sister, I have to stay by her side." After saying that, Shangguan Jingye got up and prepared to leave.

Seeing that Shangguan Jingye was about to leave, Nangong Yufeng quickly stopped him and said, "Brother Shangguan, don't be impulsive. Let's think of another way."

"What else can we do? It's been three days already. We don't know how Xia Mu is doing, whether he's suffering, or whether he's even getting enough to eat." Shangguan Jingye slumped to the ground in despair.

Nangong Yufeng suddenly thought of something and said to Shangguan Jingye with delight, "Brother Shangguan, I suddenly thought of a good idea."

Shangguan Jingye had already given up hope and asked listlessly, "What good ideas could there be now?"

Nangong Yufeng looked around and whispered a few words in Shangguan Jingye's ear.

As Shangguan Jingye listened to Nangong Yufeng's words, his eyes grew brighter and brighter. After Nangong Yufeng finished speaking, Shangguan Jingye grabbed Nangong Yufeng's shoulders with both hands and said, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Nangong Yufeng scratched his head apologetically and said, "I just remembered."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's get ready quickly. Maybe we can really rescue our junior sister this time." After saying that, he pulled Nangong Yufeng away.

As for Li Muxia, ever since she was caught trying to escape last time, Nangong Huaiyuan has been keeping a close eye on her. As soon as Nangong Huaiyuan finished the morning court session, he would rush to Li Muxia's courtyard.

Something was amiss today. Li Muxia had assumed Nangong Huaiyuan was already in the courtyard reading memorials, but when she came out of her room, she didn't see him and couldn't help but ask, "Taoyao, hasn't Nangong Huaiyuan finished court yet?"

Tao Yao respectfully replied, "This servant does not know."

Li Muxia didn't think much of it when she heard this. It was good that he didn't come; she could think of a good way to escape.

Unfortunately, her idea was shattered by an arrogant voice.

"This is where the courtesan that Brother Huaiyuan redeemed lives."

Li Muxia and Tao Yao both turned around when they heard the noise. At the entrance of the courtyard, a woman in gorgeous clothes was arguing with a guard.

"Why won't you let me in? Brother Huaiyuan said before that I can come and go as I please in the Prince Huai's residence." The woman's voice came with a hint of anger.

The two guards exchanged glances, and one of them said, "Princess Hehua, it's not that we don't want you to go in, but His Highness Prince Huai has given orders that no one is allowed to enter Liuli Courtyard. Please don't make things difficult for us."

At this moment, Li Muxia and Tao Yao had also arrived at the courtyard gate.

Princess Hehua was immediately captivated by Li Muxia's beauty as she watched the approaching woman. She thought to herself, "When did the capital have such a beautiful woman? Her looks truly deserve to be called the queen of courtesans."

It is obvious that He Hua mistook Li Muxia for Tao Yao.

Princess Hehua is the future queen consort of Prince Huai, a fact known throughout the capital. If it weren't for the sudden death of Hehua's mother three years ago, and Hehua's decision to observe mourning for her mother, she would have already been the queen consort of Prince Huai three years ago.

Unexpectedly, just as her mourning period was about to end and she was about to marry Prince Huai, a courtesan suddenly appeared out of nowhere, which she could not accept.

She could accept that King Huai had many women, but she could not accept that he was only devoted to one woman.

Looking at the stunningly beautiful Li Muxia before her, He Hua felt a deep sense of threat.
