The one treating the boy who had promised Lu JinNian for three days was a young imperial physician. When he saw Chen Li push open the door, he immediately stood up. ”Imperial Physician Chen.”
Chen Li nodded at him. ”This imperial physician will be responsible for this. You can leave.”
The young imperial physician pursed his lips, but didn't say anything. He took his medicine chest out with him.
Amongst the rescued children, other than Du Lang, who was the son of the assistant minister and needed to be cautious, the other five children had unknown origins. Forget about how long they could live under severe injuries, at the very least, they would have a chance to be promoted after they finished treating Du Lang.
After the others left, Lu JinNian walked in and asked the boy, ”Are you still awake?”
When the boy heard Lu JinNian's words, he slightly moved his head, proving that he was still awake.
Lu JinNian looked at his body. Compared to the new wounds from the day she saw him, she remained silent for a long time. Finally, she said to Chen Li, ”Imperial Physician Chen, I'll leave him to you. Treat him carefully.”
The boy was excited, ”You!” He clearly said that he would let him die!
”You are safe now. You can relax and think for a while before making your decision.”
”...”
Within the imperial palace, in the side hall where the emperor was specially used to receive the envoys, Xiao Wen Feng was playing with the Magic Cube that he had retrieved from Du Lang's hands as he looked at Anubis.
Anubis raised an eyebrow in confusion. ”His Majesty summoned this prince. It can't be that he just wanted to share with us the treasures of Imperial Concubine Wen, right?”
Xiao Wen Feng laughed, ”To tell you the truth, Prince Ji said that finding this item back involves the disgraceful matters of my Imperial family. Because of my relationship with Prince Ji, I wanted to inform him.”
”Oh?”
”This object was lost in Jade Moon Hall, and Prince Ji's personal servant died in Jade Moon Hall. Isn't that a bit too much of a coincidence?”
”What does Your Majesty mean?”
Seeing that Anubis had no intention of confessing, Xiao Wen Feng scoffed. ”I have checked the origin of this item, and it originated from your Prairie. I am not interested in its secrets, but Prince Ji sent people to infiltrate the harem to steal it. Isn't it disregarding our Xuan Kingdom?”
Anubis' heart skipped a beat as he recalled Lu Jinnian's reminder last night. He had died in the Ming Xuan Kingdom's imperial palace, which could be his reason for threatening Ming Xuan Kingdom. But this reason was also a double-edged sword, because that person had died in a place that was far too weird.
It was the imperial harem. If he had offended the women in the palace, even if he had not died and had been discovered, Anubis would have executed him for the sake of the honor of the Ming-Xuan Kingdom.
It was just as Lu JinNian had said, if this matter were to drag on, not only would his original negotiation advantage turn into a disadvantage, he would also completely enrage Xiao Wen Feng, and the gains wouldn't make up for the losses.
Anubis let out a sigh of relief. He said lightly, ”Your Majesty is saying that it was this prince who sent people to steal something from Your Majesty's harem, but it was broken by Shen Yin. He was the one who accidentally killed people for the sake of the entire Ming Empire. Is it righteousness for this prince to praise Young Master Shen even after death as his personal follower?”
”Prince Ji has admitted to it?”
