Zhe Yu’s hand was seized, and he stared wide-eyed at Princess Rong who uttered those cold three words!
His body instinctively resisted, but this only brought about even more violent restraints from the guards!
He was still injured, having just returned from the brink of death, yet at this mont, Princess Rong, whom he had revered for over twenty years, seed oblivious and completely unaware that he was still a patient!
Looking down at the hand tightly gripping his wrist, suddenly an unknown strength surged within him, enabling him to unexpectedly overturn the guard restraining him!
"Isn’t it just to make submit,—fine, I’ll write!"
Due to this violent action, the wound under his arm quickly spread with a deep red.
But he paid no regard, pressing the paper with his left hand and shakily writing with his right!
This resolute Zhe Yu was a sight Princess Rong had never seen before, and she couldn’t help but frown.
But before she could think further, Zhe Yu had already thrown the pen aside, climbed off the bed, knelt on the ground, and held up the docunt he had quickly written in front of her!
"I, Zhe Yu, have been nurtured by the Princess for many years, and intend to repay her kindness with my life. Unfortunately, the Princess only cares for this docunt, so today, Zhe Yu will fulfill her wish!"
After speaking, he slapped the docunt on the ground before him and kowtowed three tis!
When he raised his head, his eyes were bloodshot.
Princess Rong vaguely guessed what these three kowtows signified; her heart trembled. Stepping forward to reprimand, she saw Xu Yin pick up the docunt first, quickly read it twice, then called for the guards: "Imdiately send this to the Dali Temple! Tell them it’s a misunderstanding, and have them release the people!"
Princess Rong pursed her lips tightly, wanting to rebuke Xu Yin for overstepping, but with so many uncontrollable situations before her, she didn’t know where to start. After giving Zhe Yu, who was half-covered in blood, another glance, she bit her teeth hard and walked out with a sullen face!
A servant approached: "May I ask the Princess if you want to summon the Imperial Physician for General Zhe?"
"Let him be!"
Princess Rong walked out the threshold without looking back.
It was only to make him issue a docunt to withdraw the lawsuit, yet he’s being so emotional! Even if Xu Yin was the culprit, wasn’t he not killed?
Raising him for twenty years and yet he cannot even endure a bit of grievance! He doesn’t understand the importance of the bigger picture, choosing this critical mont to cause her trouble!
Teach him a lesson first, so he knows how to behave wisely later!
She just doesn’t believe that Zhe Yu can truly stay defiant and dare to go against her!
After Princess Rong left, Xu Yin stood under the doorway, gazing at Zhe Yu deeply, giving a signal to the people in tow.
With both Princess Rong and Xu Yin’s attention focused on Zhe Yu, none of them noticed the carriage parked in the side alley of the Zhe Family.
After three rounds of tea, Guo Song and his n returned.
"General! Princess Rong has obtained the withdrawal docunt from Zhe Yu’s hands, and soone has already taken it to the Dali Temple governnt office!"
Fu Zhen looked up, "Where is Zhe Yu?"
"Just now, Princess Rong ordered the guards to coerce him into writing the docunt; he has already fainted from blood loss!"
"Princess Rong didn’t attend to him?"
"No," Guo Song shook his head, "She didn’t even call for a doctor!"
Fu Zhen remained silent, but there was no surprise on her face.
Pei Zhan said, "It seems you anticipated this."
Fu Zhen did not respond, imdiately giving orders: "Quickly bring Doctor Lu over. Then go scout the Zhe Family, if there are no abnormalities, we’ll go in and take a look!"
After Guo Song withdrew, she looked at the two people inside the carriage: "Who is organizing to inform Mrs. Zhang?"
"Let Liang Ting go!"
Liang Chen gestured to the guard sitting at the front of the carriage.
With Princess Rong having been dealt with by Xu Yin, the Dali Temple can only depend on Mrs. Zhang’s thods; neither the Liang Family nor the Pei Family have legitimate reasons to publicly intervene in this matter.
Since Lu Chongyang lived nearby, he was brought over quickly, and Guo Song ca to report: "People need to be kept outside this courtyard’s walls!"
Fu Zhen got off the carriage, "How many people?"
"Just one!"
"Enter from the back!"
After Fu Zhen spoke, she glanced back at the two n in the carriage and then got off.
The two n promptly signaled to the guards as well.
After Princess Rong’s grand visit, the Zhe Family’s atmosphere beca even more desolate. The few remaining servants were in Zhe Yu’s room, anxiously trying to save him as he had been placed back on the bed.
Fu Zhen led Lu Chongyang inside, causing everyone to jump in fright, but before they could react further, Guo Song and his n had already corralled everyone into one area.
"Take them out and guard them well!"
After Fu Zhen gave the order, she imdiately brought Lu Chongyang to Zhe Yu’s bed.
Zhe Yu’s chest heaved rapidly, his face flushed, teeth clenched, eyes wide open as he looked at Fu Zhen like a fish out of water.
Fu Zhen let Lu Chongyang go forward to save him first. Until the bellows-like gasping gradually cald down, Guo Song and his n had already learned the entire story from the detained Zhe Family servants.
After listening, Fu Zhen walked to the bedside, "It seems General Zhe is really unfortunate."
Zhe Yu bit his lips to the point of bleeding, yet no sound ca out. He, originally a proud man, even shed two clear tears from the corners of his eyes at this mont.
Fu Zhen said nothing more. She patted Lu Chongyang’s shoulder, signaling him to attend to his work diligently, then walked to the doorway.
Zhe Yu called, "Please wait."
Fu Zhen stopped at the threshold and looked back, only to see his eyes deep like the sea, his throat bobbing, "Great kindness needs no words. If I, Zhe Yu, can walk under the sun again, I will surely seek you to repay today’s favor."
Fu Zhen paused, "You should focus on healing first."
Zhe Yu swallowed before he spoke again, "How would I find you in the future?"
Fu Zhen thought for a mont, then took out a coin from the Ning Family’s Shop from her pouch, "If you wish to see , just take this to Wanbin Building and find Manager Su."
Liang Ning always knew Zhe Yu wasn’t part of their circle. With Princess Rong becoming a princess, her lust for power inflad, she even thought of cultivating Zhe Yu, a distant relative of her maternal family. How much respect could such a Zhe Yu receive? Before eting Princess Rong, he had nothing, and after being by her side, this woman totally dominated his life.
Everything he did was for Princess Rong, including following Yongping since he beca aware, becoming an inseparable part.
In Zhe Yu’s view, this was a way to repay kindness, but it was within reason for Princess Rong to adopt Zhe Yu from a profit standpoint; therefore, when benefits conflicted, abandoning Zhe Yu was also expected.
From the mont Zhe Yu expressed how much he trusted Princess Rong, Fu Zhen anticipated this outco, but without experiencing it personally, Zhe Yu would never wake up.
This case was sothing Fu Zhen stumbled upon outside the training ground by chance, and only by giving it a little push did it result in today’s outco. Just because Zhe Yu never disclosed to Princess Rong that he was the one who captured the assassin, her intervention seed worth it.
