I just want to live a good life

Chapter 130 Bandaged Wounds

That night, the Crown Prince's concubine did not return home until very late. Although the Crown Prince's mansion seemed calm on the surface, it was actually in chaos because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not there.

The chief steward Ding Fu sent people to look for the prince everywhere, while at the same time he had people secretly inquire about the whereabouts of Concubine Xia.

The guards who were sent to Lou Guang's mansion to look for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw a carriage with the Crown Prince's mansion on the way.

The carriage stopped quietly at the street corner, and the driver disappeared.

The guards went forward to check and found Concubine Xia unconscious in the carriage.

Su Nuan was brought back to the Prince's Mansion covered in blood.

This scared everyone.

Manager Ding sent for Imperial Physician Yao.

At the same time, Mu Yunting rushed back home after hearing the news.

In Duiyueju, Chunliu and the other three were crying around Su Nuan.

When Mu Yunting came in, he was disturbed by the crying of several people.

He walked to the bed and saw the person lying on the bed with a pale face, eyes closed, and clothes stained with blood. His heart suddenly tightened.

"Ye Yin, go and bring Yao Tai here, the sooner the better."

Chun Liu and the others were still sobbing, and Mu Yunting felt a surge of anger in his heart when he heard them.

"Why are you crying? Go get yourself a clean dress."

Bitao reacted the fastest and brought over a clean set of undershirts for Su Nuan to change into.

But when she was taking off Su Nuan's coat, she couldn't lift Su Nuan up, so she could only turn her over and make her lie on her side.

Mu Yunting frowned and waved his hand, scolding, "You are so clumsy, get out."

Then he gently picked up Su Nuan, let her lean on his shoulder, and helped her take off her blood-soaked clothes.

But the moment Su Nuan's shoulders were exposed, Mu Yunting was stunned.

Because Su Nuan's shoulder had been bandaged neatly.

He wondered who bandaged Su Nuan. If it was a maid in Duiyue Residence, they shouldn't have just bandaged her without changing her clothes.

Gently opening the white bandage, a red and swollen wound appeared in front of Mu Yunting.

It was obvious that the wound had been treated, but because the move just now had pulled the wound, blood was oozing out of the wound.

Who treated her wounds and why did they throw her in the carriage?

At this moment, Ye Yin's voice came from outside, "Your Highness, Imperial Physician Yao is here."

Mu Yunting quickly tore off the white bandage and threw it aside.

When Doctor Yao entered the room, he saw the Crown Prince sitting on the edge of the bed with Concubine Xia lying on his shoulder.

"Yao Tai, you're here just in time. Take her pulse first."

Doctor Yao quickly came to the bedside and carefully placed his hand on Su Nuan's wrist.

After a while, he said, "Your Highness, Concubine Xia is just a little weak, she is fine."

Mu Yunting hesitated for a moment, but still lifted the clothes on Su Nuan's shoulders to reveal the wound inside, "Take a look at her wound."

Doctor Yao carefully examined the wound and replied, "This is probably a knife wound. Judging from the wound, it has been treated with top-grade medicine. However, the wound is deep and wide, and I'm afraid it will leave a scar in the future."

"It's just a knife wound, why is she sleeping so deeply?"

"Concubine Xia should have been fed a tranquilizer. It's not a big deal. If Your Highness wants Concubine Xia to wake up immediately, I can give you a Qingxin Pill. You will wake up after taking it."

"No need, just let her sleep."

"After Concubine Xia wakes up, she will need to be nursed back to health. I will go and prescribe a prescription right away."

"Go ahead. Don't tell anyone about what happened today. If anyone asks, just say that Concubine Xia has caught a cold."

After Doctor Yao left, Mu Yunting asked Ye Yin to get the golden wound medicine. He personally cleaned Su Nuan's wound and then re-bandaged it.

After everything was ready, he gently put Su Nuan back on the bed, then stared at the red finger marks on her neck and frowned.

Is he being strangled again?

What on earth did this woman go through today?

After covering Su Nuan with the quilt, Mu Yunting left the room.

He first asked the maid in Duiyueju whether she had checked Su Nuan's wound, and the answer he got was that the concubine was covered in blood when she was carried back. Several people were frightened and did not dare to touch her. They just wanted to wait for the imperial physician to come and treat her.

Then he asked the guard who found Su Nuan. When the guard saw the concubine covered in blood, he drove the carriage directly back to the Prince's Mansion without any pause.

So his concubine was being chased outside, and she was rescued by someone. That person treated her wounds, put her in a carriage, and threw her on the side of the road.

"Ye Yin, have someone check on the driver. I think there's something fishy about him."

Su Nuan slept for three full days. When she woke up, she asked someone to look for the wooden box in the carriage, but unfortunately the wooden box was nowhere to be found.

I finally got a clue, but she lost it just like that. I was so unwilling to accept it.

She wanted to tear Zhao Zong into pieces. Why did he kill her at such an important moment when there were no other options?

However, after this incident, Su Nuan was able to confirm that the wooden box was what Cui Shaoyuan gave to Xia Qingyan for safekeeping, so as soon as the wooden box appeared, it brought her fatal disaster.

She suspected that her previous suspicion of Prince Yongping was wrong, and that Lou Guang was the mastermind behind all this.

If it was really Lou Guang who did it, then it would be easy to understand why Zhao Zong attacked her when she found the wooden box.

But what leverage does Cui Shaoyuan have on Lou Guang? What connections do these two people have?

And who is the masked man who saved me, and why do I feel so familiar with him?

Questions came one after another, and Su Nuan felt like her brain was about to split.

She turned over and tried to sit up in bed, but it pulled on her wound and she grimaced in pain.

"You're awake!"

Mu Yunting's voice unexpectedly appeared in the room.

Su Nuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Mu Yunting sitting behind the desk, standing up and walking towards her.

"Have you been here on official business?"

Seeing the thick stack of documents on the desk, Su Nuan asked.

"Someone, go get Doctor Yao."

After Mu Yunting finished his instructions, he walked to the bed and asked, "Will it affect you if I read the documents here?"

"No." Su Nuan replied.

"You've been sleeping for three days, do you want to get up and walk around?"

Without waiting for Su Nuan to answer, Mu Yunting helped her up.

"Don't you want to ask me what happened?"

"No hurry, it won't be too late to wait until Yao Tailai finishes examining you."

Su Nuan's injury was on her shoulder, which did not affect her walking. After being helped up, she got out of bed on her own.

He walked around with the support of Mu Yunting.

"Where are Bi Tao and the others? Just ask them to help me. Your Highness doesn't have to do it yourself."

"You are not used to having maids, right? There is no point in keeping them, so I have sent them all away. From now on, you will take care of your own daily life."

Hearing this, Su Nuan looked up at Mu Yunting.

Why does this arrangement sound like a punishment? She is clearly the victim!
