The residence was tended to all year round and everything was in order.

Shen Xu was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up. He was very unhappy.

“Why aren’t you sleeping in the middle of the night? Are you tired of living?!”

!!

The servant quickly said, “Prince, please forgive me. The Princess is here!”

Shen Xu was stunned for a moment before sitting up.

“Which princess? It’s not the Princess of Lang, is it? But wasn’t she left in Wangsong City?”

The servant said, “I don’t know how she came here. Anyway, she’s already waiting outside. She said that she needs to see you urgently. Do you want to see her?”

Shen Xu quickly got out of bed and put on his clothes. “Of course, I want to see her!”

That woman was Duke Lang’s treasure. If he offended her, Duke Lang would definitely not let him off.

Shen Xu rushed out of the bedroom and rushed to the living room.

As soon as Yu Niaoniao saw him appear, she spoke to him, “Quickly arrange a guest room for us. Dang Gui is injured and needs a clean place to be treated.”

Shen Xu looked at the unconscious Dang Gui. Her forehead was wrapped in thick gauze, and she did seem to be seriously injured.

He said immediately, “Come with me!”

They hurried to the guest room.

Dang Gui was placed on the bed. Lo Pingsha rolled up his sleeves, washed his hands, and helped Dang Gui remove the gauze on her head.

He had only done a preliminary treatment of the wound at the inn just now. Now that he had the conditions, he could treat her carefully.

Shen Xu stood at the side and could not help but click his tongue when he saw the wound on Dang Gui’s head.

“Why was she so seriously injured? Who did it?”

Yu Niaoniao said in a low voice, “The county governor’s wife sent someone to do it.”

Shen Xu was very surprised. “You mean Madam Shu? She has no grudge against you. Why did she do this?”

“It’s a long story. Tell me first. Where is Duke Lang?”

Shen Xu answered truthfully, “Prince Lang, my father, and the county governor, Lu Jiaoguang, went to Xiangtai together.”

Yu Niaoniao asked, “Why did they go to the Xiangtai?”

“The Eastern Expedition Army’s camp is located in Xiangtai. They said that they want to patrol the Eastern Expedition Army and visit General Tang Pei.”

Yu Niaoniao asked, “Didn’t they tell you anything before they left?”

Shen Xu thought for a moment before saying.

“Prince Lang left me a letter before he left. He told me to stay in Prince Min’s Mansion and not run around.

If they’re not back in three days, let me send that letter to the Imperial Capital and give it to Yan Nanguan of the Justice Department.”

At this point, he couldn’t help but feel nervous. It sounded a little like he was making funeral arrangements. It sounded ominous.

Yu Niaoniao said, “Where’s the letter? Show it to me.”

Shen Xu said, “I placed the letter in the bedroom. Wait a moment, I’ll get it for you now.”

… .

In the camp of the Eastern Expedition Army in Xiangtai City, General Cheng Wu and Du Tao were wearing silver-gray armor , looking tall and straight. General Cheng Wu cupped his fists and laughed loudly.

“Greetings, Prince Min and Prince Lang.”

Then, he smiled at the county governor, Lu Jiaoguang. “Master Lu, long time no see!”

Prince Min was still wearing the loose Taoist robe he usually wore. There was a horsetail whisk in his arm. His white beard fluttered. At first glance, he did not look like a prince but more like an old Taoist priest seeking immortality.

He raised his chin slightly, his expression cold.

“General Cheng Wu, don’t stand on ceremony.”

Du Tao turned to the side and said respectfully, “Please sit inside.”

They walked into the house.

Du Tao ordered refreshments to be served.

He rubbed his hands together and said excitedly.

“When I learned that the three esteemed guests were coming, I was so excited that I didn’t sleep last night. Unfortunately, General Tang is sick and can’t welcome you personally. I hope you can forgive me.”

Xiao Juan did not touch the teacup beside him.

He was wearing a black round-necked brocade robe and a crimson cloak. He sat upright.

His dark eyes were as sharp as knives as he asked calmly.

“What happened to Tang Pei?”

Du Tao sighed, looking worried.

“Two years ago, General Tang was injured on the battlefield. After that, he fell sick.

He has been lying in bed recuperating for the past two years. His condition has improved a little, but for some reason, his condition suddenly worsened two days ago. He actually fainted and hasn’t woken up yet.”

Then, he looked at Lu Yaoguang, who was sitting beside him.

“Lord Lu knows about this too.”

Lu Yaoguang nodded in agreement. “Yes, I came to visit General Tang not long ago. He’s indeed very sick.”

...

Xiao Juan asked, “Doctor, do you know why it worsened?”

Du Tao sighed.

“This matter is quite lamentable. General Tang originally had a daughter called Tang Guixi. That girl used to come to our military camp often. She was lively and skilled. We were quite familiar with her. But three years ago, Tang Guixi suddenly disappeared. Ever since then, General Tang had been depressed and missed his daughter every day. Not long ago, he had heard the news of Tang Guixi’s unexpected death. He couldn’t take the blow and vomited blood on the spot. After that, he fell unconscious.”

Xiao Juan looked at Lu Yaoguang and asked, “Do you know about these things?”

Lu Yaoguang’s expression was a little unnatural.

“I only know that Tang Guixi is missing, but I don’t know that she’s dead.”

He couldn’t help but ask.

“Is that girl, Gui Xi, really dead?”

Du Tao looked regretful and said slowly.

“Not long ago, someone found fragments of Tang Guixi’s clothes and the sword she had always carried with her.

There was blood on the scraps of clothing and the sword. It was probably bad.

...

General Tang vomited blood on the spot when he saw those things.”

Lu Yaoguang’s expression changed a few times before finally turning into a long sigh.

“Guixi has been engaged to my Yunchong since she was young. Originally, I thought she was just young and playful and had sneaked out to play. She would be back soon. I did not expect her to never return. Sigh! If I had known earlier, I would have let her marry into the Lu family sooner. If she had stayed in our Lu family in peace, nothing would have happened.”

Du Tao comforted him.

“Lord Lu, you don’t have to blame yourself. This has nothing to do with you. Since things had developed to this point, it could only mean that Tang Guixi and Lu Yao were not fated. Lu Yao will definitely find someone more suitable in the future.”

Lu Yaoguang waved his hand and said sadly.

“Now is not the time to talk about this. Let’s get down to business.

“I accompanied Prince Min and Prince Lang to Xiangtai to assist you in inspecting the Eastern punitive expedition.”

Du Tao said brightly, “I’m already prepared. There’s a large-scale drill in the army this afternoon. Your Highnesses, please take a break. After lunch, I’ll accompany you to watch the soldiers practice.”

Xiao Juan said, “Take us to see Tang Pei first.”
