Jiang Xuanjin walked quickly, and it was rare that he held her quite steadily. Li Huaiyu smelled the faint scent of incense on him and almost fell asleep.

  "Master!" someone chorused in greeting, their voices loud and clear, startling her awake with a jolt.

  She opened her eyes to find herself already at the main gate of Moju, and the person holding her paused for a moment, as if hesitating. Seeing this, Huaiyu suddenly let out a loud cry of pain.

  "What?" Jiang Xuanjin furrowed his brow in confusion.

  Li Huaiyus eyes were filled with tears: "What else can I do? My feet hurt!"

  She slightly pursed her lips, Jiang Xuanjin silently sighed and finally carried her across the courtyard gate.

  Hua Yu stretched her neck to take a closer look. When she came over in the afternoon, she was discovered by someone as soon as she crossed the outermost wall of the courtyard and hadnt had time to carefully examine the layout of the yard. At a glance, her gaze swept across the pavilions, towers, and halls, which were arranged in a harmonious and elegant manner. Although it was only one courtyard in the mansion, it was indeed exquisitely decorated, with intricate carvings on the eaves, making her want to applaud in admiration.

  Ziyang Jun is the lord of Ziyang, and should be guarding his fief. However, the previous emperor favored Jiang Xuanjin greatly, giving him a fief but keeping him in the capital, entrusting him with many court affairs, so that Jiang Xuanjin stayed in Kyoto for over twenty years.

  This ink house can be considered his true old nest.

  "Hey?" Looking at the direction he was heading in, Huai Yu grabbed his collar and pulled hard, "Huff huff".

  Jiang Xuanjins face turned dark: "Are you looking for death?"

  Is he still being treated like a horse?

  Startled, Li Huaiyu hastily let go of his hand and smoothed out the wrinkles on his collar: "Dont be angry, it was just a moment of urgency. I wanted to ask you where you plan to take me?"

  He walked in the direction of the leftmost pavilion, which looked like a guest house.

  Jiang Xuanjin narrowed his eyes and swept a glance at her: "Its already a great kindness to bring you here, do you still want to enter the main building?"

  "...its not necessary to go to the main building, just let me stay here and you have to accompany me!"

  "Sleep tight." Jiang Xuanjin carried her up to the second floor of the guest house, stuffed her into the bed, and then turned his head to order the servant, "Go invite a doctor from the mansion to come over."

  Holding the jade pendant in her mouth, she lay on the soft bed, not making any more trouble, honestly hugging the quilt and hanging her injured leg over the bedside.

  Jiang Xuanjin had just settled in when she was about to leave, but as soon as she turned around, he thought of asking another question: "Youve injured your leg, isnt this trip a waste?"

  Look at her dressed up like this, she must be trying to win back the chance to marry Yaner. But now it seems that nothing can be done and shes lying here, while Old Master is still trying to matchmake Yaner with Bai Er Miss.

  Upon hearing this, Huaiyu let out a long sigh.

  "This is probably fate, cant be forced." She lowered her eyes, her tone full of sorrow, "What can I do? Even if I dress up to look good, my father still thinks Im a shame to the White family."

  "Its quite embarrassing." Jiang Xuanjin nodded.

  The Bai family is such a decent and respectable household, yet they produced someone like her whos a scourge to society. I wonder if their ancestors spirit tablets have fallen over in shock.

  He was joking, knowing that Miss Bai had a thick skin and wouldnt mind, so he spoke bluntly. However, unexpectedly, the person in front of him heard this sentence and suddenly turned red-eyed.

  "I also think Im quite pitiful." Li Huaiyu let out a bitter laugh, hanging her head low, her words nasalized, "My mother died early, and from a young age, I was bullied by others. I thought that once I grew up, things would get better, but who knew that even after growing up for several years, I was still harmed to the point of being stupid for three years. It wasnt until I finally recovered that my marriage was also snatched away from me."

  She tried her best to squeeze out some tears, but couldnt manage it, so she could only pretend to wipe away non-existent tears with her handkerchief. Her voice grew even more mournful: "Originally, life was already hard to bear, going hungry and cold, and now the one good marriage prospect has also gone, in the future Im afraid that no matter where I die, there will be no one to care."

  Jiang Xuanjin frowned upon hearing this: "When will you ever change your habit of lying through your teeth?"

  "Whos lying?!" She raised her eyes, dissatisfied, and glared at him. "These are all true! If you dont believe me, go ask the White family and see what Miss White eats every day!"

  His gaze fell on her clothes and jewelry, Jiang Xuanjins eyes were deep and mysterious.

  Hua Yu followed his line of sight to look at himself, and said with a flat mouth: "You shouldnt be skeptical either. This whole outfit is from the Cang Hai Yi Zhu Ge, it was lent to me by Lu Zhanggui because he pitied me. I have to return it after today."

  Is that really so? Jiang Xuanjin half-closed his eyes, his hand in his sleeve fingering the Buddhist rosary as he carefully considered whether or not to believe her.

  "Alas, whats the use of telling you these things? In your eyes, Im just a crazy person who lives by lying every day." Huaiyu turned her head and stared dejectedly at the embroidered flowers on the quilt.

  As mentioned earlier, the children who grew up in the Jiang family were all kind and gentle. Jiang Yan couldnt resist this big bad wolf Li, and Jiang Xuanjin wasnt much better either. Looking at her pitiful appearance, hesitating again and again, she still felt a bit of sympathy.

  After all, its just a girls family, looking sly and returning sly, but she really didnt harm him.

  Then, Jiang Xuanji relaxed his tone and said: "You rest well, wait for the doctor to come and apply medicine, Ill go out for a while."

  "Where are you going?" Huaiyu clutched her quilt and looked at him with a wronged expression.

  "Isnt it that this marriage has been snatched away, and your days will be even more unbearable?" Jiang Xuanjin said without turning his head, "Ill help you snatch it back, and the favor of asking for medicine on my behalf will also be cleared, with neither of us owing each other anything."

  Another two who dont owe each other? Hua Yu raised an eyebrow, thinking that this Zi Yang Jun was indeed a bit eccentric, wanting to help but having to find an excuse first.

  With a smile in her eyes, she looked at his back and said obediently: "That family is waiting for you to come back here!"

  He didnt respond to her and Jiang Xuanjin went straight downstairs.

  As soon as he left, the people waiting outside brought in a doctor.

  "Fourth Miss." Yu Feng bowed his hands to her, "The master ordered me to take care of the miss for a while, please cooperate with the doctor first and bandage your wound."

  Take a look at this person, and Hua Yus heart went "thud".

  She had asked Cheng Xiao before if Jiang Xuanjin only had one guard by his side, and Cheng Xiao hadnt answered her at the time. Now she had her answer.

  The person in front of him, dressed and styled like a virtual one, only with a pair of eyebrow pins on his back waist, had light footsteps and was not low in martial arts skills, and must also be a personal attendant of Jiang Xuanjin.

  Its already hard enough for her to get entangled with Jiang Xuanjin, and now that she has this idea, its even more difficult than ascending to heaven.

  He dryly laughed twice and replied, "I didnt expect you to value me so much."

  Cant she just be treated as an ordinary guest and left here freely? And yet, you even sent your trusted aide to keep an eye on her! What a deep grudge!

  She nodded slightly and saw the doctor was about to give her medicine, so she turned around and went outside without saying another word.

  Hua Yu looked at the doctors movements with a worried expression, her eyes rolled around, and suddenly asked: "Miss, is my injury serious?"
