At this point, did she have any other choice besides nodding

"My lord, please rest assured. I will do my utmost to cure young Master Bai."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and followed the maidservant into Bai Yu's room without any hesitation or fear, her eyes were also very determined.

This came as a bit of a surprise to Bai Guogong. He had heard that the Wu Dinghou family all came from the countryside and assumed they were ignorant and uncouth people who only rose to their current status because of the emperor's favor.

Today, at first glance, he probably underestimated this family.

No wonder King Jing was willing to humble himself and befriend them, even speaking up for them.

"Uncle, Lady Wu Hou's medical skills are superb, not inferior to the director of the Imperial Medical Bureau. Xiao Yu will surely be safe and sound."

White Guogong nodded, and had to lead the crowd to wait silently outside.

Bai Yu is the only legitimate grandson of the Duke's mansion. If something happens to him, it would be a great disaster for the Duke's mansion.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chuang completed the mission and brought Bai Xuan's head to meet Yuan Buyu.

The study in the manor house was lit by a single oil lamp, even late at night.

The dim candlelight cast an eerie glow on Bai Xuan's pale face.

"You actually killed her" Yuan Buyu was somewhat disbelieving.

He had also heard that Jiang Chuang had gone to Jinxiu Mountain Villa with a dowry, saying he wanted to marry Fang Jinshi. Could it be that just a few days later, he had actually killed her

"The heads are right in front of you, don't go too far!"

"To kill her, almost all my brothers died inside the mountain villa."

Jiang Chuang gritted his teeth and said, “No wonder you assigned this task to me. You're afraid of sending your carefully cultivated subordinates to their deaths, aren't you So you send me, your insignificant illegitimate son, instead”

Yuan Buyu saw that the anger on their faces didn't seem feigned, and when he looked at their injuries all over their bodies, he finally believed them somewhat.

Actually, when assigning Fang Jinxiu's assassination to Jiang Chuang, he didn't have much hope for success.

However, this result apparently made him more satisfied. Zong Yu's beloved wife had passed away; he must have been deeply devastated. Perhaps he could now reach out to the military camp.

"It wasn't my intention to be a father."

"Chu'er, you are overthinking."

He smiled faintly and closed the lid containing Bai Xuan's skull.

Jiang Chuang secretly let out a breath.

"Where's my mother You promised that after I finished the task, I could go see her."

Yuan Buyu nodded, "I always keep my word."

He lightly patted his hand, and an subordinate immediately came in.

"Grandfather."

Yuan Buyu instructed, "Take Young Master to see Mrs. Liu."

"Yes!"

Jiang Chuang'an restrained the excitement in his heart and followed the people from the Xiangfu.

This time, Yuan Buyu didn't play any tricks. Fang Jinshu died, and he was in a good mood. It would be good for Jiang Chuang to taste some sweetness, so as not to be too harsh and provoke his resistance.

As long as the Liu family remains in his hands, this kid can only stay by his side and go nowhere else.

In a secluded courtyard within Kyoto Castle, the Lady Liu was squatting in the corner, raving madly. She dug up a rotten piece of something from the ground and shoved it into her mouth.

Jiang Chuang came in and immediately saw this scene. Seeing his mother's excitement, he temporarily suppressed it and quickly rushed to her side, knocking the thing from her hand.

Even up close, you could still smell a strong stench from the file.

Jiang Chuang frowned heavily, looking at the person who led him, his face full of anger.

"She's at least the woman your father married, is this how you treat her!"

The follower trailing behind replied calmly, “My lord, please calm down. The Master did indeed instruct me to take good care of Madam, but Madam is suffering from a mental illness.”

"Those who come to take care of her either get bitten by her or are scared away, no one dares to approach her anymore."

She won't eat the freshly cooked meals, she insists on eating things picked up from the ground. What can we little ones do about it

"The person is right here, Young Master. Time is of the essence, so don't waste it arguing with me. Please speak directly to Madam."

After he finished speaking, he pulled the door shut and turned to leave.

Jiang Chuang heard a lot of footsteps outside, it seemed that someone was watching the courtyard. He thought it would be difficult to take his mother away from here.

On the way here, the people from the Xiangfu still had his eyes covered. It was clearly a precaution taken in advance.

"Give me, give me!"

"Bad stuff, get out of here, don't take mine."

I don't eat poisoned food, I don't eat poisoned food.

Liu shi pushed Jiang Chuang away with force, clearly not recognizing him.

He was dressed in tattered clothes, his two feet were bare and exposed, and his body was covered with various sizes of scars.

The skin exposed outside of the clothes had already lost its original color, and even under the fingernails it was dirty and blackened.

Jian Chuang felt very sorry for her. In his memory, his mother was very clean and gentle. She would hold him and comfort him when he had nightmares or was bullied half to death by Yuan Xiang Li. She would carefully apply medicine to his wounds and tell him not to go out.

Although the mother and child were unaccepted and unrecognized, she still wore a smile on her face every day, as if even the most difficult days had meaning and hope to live.

But the mother now standing before him was a complete stranger compared to his memories of her.

She, what has she gone through all these years!

Jiang Chuang clenched his fists tightly, his heart filled with anger.

"Yuan Buyu! I will make you pay for this."

Liu shi refused to acknowledge him, and Jiang Chuang just stood quietly at a distance, accompanying her for a while before leaving.

Instead of standing here feeling angry and sad, it's better to quickly find a way to get our mother out of here.

From the Guo Gong Mansion, Fang Jinshi went into Bai Yu's room and stayed for more than an hour before coming out.

Everyone immediately gathered around with concern.

"How is Yu'er doing" the Duke of Guo asked.

Fang Jinshi's brow furrowed with fatigue, she nodded slightly.

"Don't worry, you'll recover to normal after a good sleep."

Bai Yu hadn't closed her eyes since hearing the news of her sister's death. The shock had left her in a state of furious agitation, but now that she had relaxed, she immediately fell into a deep sleep.

A longer sleep duration is beneficial for him, as it helps restore his energy.

His most serious injury was his throat, which had been burned by smoke. Fang Jinshi had already treated him and prescribed medicine. As long as he took it on time, his throat would recover sooner or later and he wouldn't become mute.

Everyone let out a collective sigh of relief after hearing her words.

The White Prince and his wife walked forward with grateful expressions. The Princess even directly took Fang Jinshi's hand, ready to express her thanks.

Suddenly, Bai Guogong spoke.

Since Yuer hasn't woken up yet, how can I be sure that what you just said is true

"Tonight, you are to remain at the Duke's mansion. You may leave only after confirming that Yu’er is truly alright."

Bai Guogong had spent a lifetime navigating the treacherous waters of the imperial court, surviving through two dynasties. He had long since grown accustomed to trusting no one unless he saw it with his own eyes.

Moreover, with the lives of his grandchildren at stake, he had already lost his granddaughter. The Duke's Mansion absolutely cannot afford to lose Bai Yu, his eldest grandson.

"Uncle, I'm afraid this isn't appropriate. Your Majesty can guarantee that Mr. and Mrs. Wu won't run away."

Bai Guogong snorted, "Whose guarantee is any use Before Yu'er wakes up, they are not to leave the Duke's mansion one step."

Zong Yu turned his head to look at Fang Jinxiu. He didn't care, being taken down by Bai Guogong was just fine; tomorrow he wouldn't have to go to court early.

And he also believed in his wife's medical skills. He said that Bai Yu was fine, so she must be fine.

Fu Shangyuan felt that since Fang Jinshu had already come to treat Bai Yu, and the other party had just woken up from a coma and brought him here, things were already pretty excessive.

He was worried that Fang Jinshu's frail body wouldn't be able to withstand it. Zong Yu's martial arts were powerful and his strength was unfathomable. Angered by this, he said something harsh—the guards at the Duke's mansion probably wouldn't be enough to handle him. I was a bandit.""He kicked me out right away!"Iron Pillar was very worried.
