After being reborn, I became the apple of my enemy's eye.

The maid looked at the newcomer and called out his name in despair, "Brother Stone."

The servant looked around and only dared to respond when he found no one was there.

"Mo'er, I'll take you away from here."

Yan Yun didn't stop him when she heard what he said. Whether they wanted to stay or leave was their own decision. She turned and went back to the courtyard.

The maid shook her head while crying.

"The indenture is still in the lady's hands. If she runs away, neither of us will survive. I still have my mother."

Shi Tou was a clever man. He knew he couldn't run away from the indenture contract, but there was no safe place in the courtyard. He watched Yan Yun's back, helped Mo'er follow Yan Yun, and sent the maid to Yan Yun's courtyard.

Mo'er grabbed Shi Tou's arm and cried to him.

She described how much pain she was in.

Stone knew this, of course, but all he could do was comfort him, "Hang in there a little longer, I'll go get some money to find you a doctor."

As servants, they couldn't invite a doctor to the mansion, so he planned to use his savings to take her to see a doctor.

Before entering the courtyard.

Shi Tou immediately knelt down before Yan Yun.

He will remember that it was Miss who saved Mo'er's life.

"Miss helped us, from now on my life belongs to you."

Yan Yun waved his hand. He naturally didn't need his own life, but if the concubines continued to stay in his courtyard, they would definitely do other harmful things.

Shi Tou said that the only person he could trust now was Miss, and he needed to go back to get the money to take Mo'er out of the mansion.

He knelt down and begged Yan Yun to help him one more time.

Yan Yun waved his hand, saying there was no need for such a fuss.

Yan Yun went back into the room and looked around. She took out the jade pendant that Lu Yan had given her earlier from her bundle. She hadn't given this to the black market yet.

Yan Yun gave the jade pendant to Shi Tou. The other items were given by Zheng Jihua, and only this one looked somewhat valuable.

She pointed to the maid's face, indicating that he should take the jade pendant to the doctor.

The maidservant suddenly knelt on the ground and begged Yan Yun.

"Miss, I can't leave. In this state, no one will take me in in the future. It's just that my face is injured, I'm fine."

She was already covered in blood and gore, but she still said she was fine.

Yan Yun sighed, rubbing his forehead.

She didn't understand why she was still reluctant to leave after all this. Wasn't she afraid of dying if she stayed here? She had brought her back from the concubine, and according to the old woman's intentions, they wouldn't let her go either.

Yan Yun gave him the jade pendant so that he could exchange it for silver, and then he took them away.

Mo'er struggled to crawl over and hugged Yan Yun's leg, pleading.

"Miss, please let Mo'er stay."

Watching her desperate cries.

Yan Yun didn't soften her heart. She pulled her foot back. She had already saved her life, and she couldn't arrange everything for her. She wouldn't ask anyone to stay.

Yan Yun gave the jade pendant to Shi Tou and turned to go back into the house.

She closed the door and stopped interfering; let them decide what to do.

Outside the door, Stone comforted Mo'er.

"Mo'er, let's go find a doctor first. Miss didn't say you were being sent away."

"Really? Brother Stone?"

To receive a word of affirmation from the other party.

"Yes."

The crying stopped outside.

Mo'er was even younger than Yan Yun was now, yet she was being tormented like this by a concubine. Thinking of those shocking wounds, Yan Yun felt particularly depressed. She changed her clothes and went to the front yard.

Zheng Jihua from the front yard doesn't interfere with what happens in the backyard.

The front yard is the front yard, and the back yard is the back yard.

Yan Yun felt depressed by what was happening in the backyard, so she went to the front yard, only to find that the front yard was just as noisy.

Those panicked cries were unusually loud compared to the dullness of the backyard.

Yan Yun heard the sound from afar and immediately went forward.

Inside the main hall of the front courtyard, a man holding a long spear thrust it straight at Zheng Jihua. Yan Yun, who had just arrived, witnessed this scene.

The spear was aimed directly at Zheng Jihua's chest.

Get close, within a finger's width of space.

Yan Yun's heart tightened. She grabbed the beaded curtain in front of her, determined to watch Zheng Jihua die.

The man moved like the wind, and was about to stab Zheng Jihua.

The servants around Zheng Jihua immediately jumped out, and the long sticks in their hands directly deflected the spear that was attacking Zheng Jihua's chest.

The iron spearhead, originally aimed at the chest, was struck and veered off to the side.

Zheng Jihua remained completely calm. Despite being blocked by the four people in front of him, he remained seated and calmly uttered three words.

"catch him."

Zheng Jihua, who had just been attacked, is now the safest person.

The attendants around him attacked the man who had come to ambush them, and the spear in his hand was knocked away by one of Zheng Jihua's men.

The loss of his weapon didn't faze the other man; he cursed Zheng Jihua, "Despicable scoundrel!"

Every word was filled with hatred.

In an instant, the man kicked away the knife aimed at him and punched another guy to the ground.

With a single glance at the other two attacking him, he pulled the spear stuck in the ground, gripped it in his hand, and swung it at the charging men.

He struck those guys in the arm, knocking their weapons from their hands, and then sneered after they were unarmed.

"You must be careful."

The guard fell to the ground.

Zheng Jihua couldn't help but curse "useless." He used the person blocking his way as a shield, drew the sword hanging on the wall, and charged at the attacking man.

Zheng Jihua moved swiftly, thrusting his sword at the man's hand.

The other party immediately released his weapon and grabbed the sword that Zheng Jihua was thrusting at him.

With his other hand clenched into a fist, he delivered a single punch that slammed into Zheng Jihua's face as hard as a stone.

Yan Yun watched as Zheng Jihua's face contorted instantly, and he flew out, crashing heavily to the ground. Seeing the gruesome sight of saliva and blood gushing out, she felt a surge of satisfaction. Her earlier frustration vanished, and she silently praised him, "Well done!"

Zheng Jihua, who had been knocked to the ground, noticed Yan Yun standing to the side.

His first words were of concern for her.

"Ning'er, it's dangerous, let's get out of here first."

He struggled to get up, fearing that the guy would lay a hand on Yan Yun.

However, that guy's only target was Zheng Jihua.

He stepped over the bodies of his followers and walked towards Zheng Jihua, grabbed his collar, and slammed his second fist into Zheng's face.

He was hit twice in a row.

Someone spoke up from behind.

"Second brother, what are you doing?"

Following the direction of the sound, Yan Yun saw the broad-shouldered, thick-waisted man. Compared to Zheng Jihua, he looked much more rugged, and his face was also much darker.

The man clenched his fist, while his other hand grabbed the sword that Zheng Jihua had dropped on the ground.

He turned to look at the person who had stopped him.

"Father, this scoundrel should be given a good beating to teach him a lesson."

His eyes flashed with murderous intent, yet he spoke only as a reprimand, his expression completely incongruous.

Zheng Jihua looked at the newcomer and recognized him.

His face turned cold.

"So this savage fellow is General Lu's son. It's been so long that I didn't recognize him."

The visitors were none other than General Lu Mingyuan, the General Who Guards the South, and his son, Lu Shan.

Lu Shan, facing his father, spoke frankly, "Lan'er, she actually wants to marry this guy, it must be because he bullied Lan'er, I must teach him a lesson." He raised his sword, ready to stab Zheng Jihua.

Lu Mingyuan's deep voice commanded respect without anger: "I brought you here, not to cause trouble."

He covered Lu Shan's head with his palm and pulled him away.

Zheng Jihua angrily questioned Lu Mingyuan, "You treated the person who saved you like this?"
