He supported himself, pulling out the weapon from his body, black blood seeping out. He didn’t expect Ming Leng Chen to have used poison, how insidious! He shook his head, which was gradually growing dizzy, and rushed into the encirclement again, trying to break out a bloody path. “Search for him! Tear through the entire imperial palace to catch him, kill on sight!” Ming Leng Chen never expected that this small assassin would have such tenacity, actually breaking out and creating a path of survival, which made him somewhat worried.
In the rear courtyard of the Yang Feng Palace, the master and servant were about to leave the palace when a heavily wounded man in black suddenly burst in, falling at their feet. He grabbed Mei Si Yu’s ankle and weakly said, “Save me, someone is hunting me.” Then he fainted beside her.
“Xiao Rou, let’s carry him inside, or someone might discover him,” Mei Si Yu said decisively.
“Miss, we shouldn’t get involved. We should hand him over. His attire clearly shows he’s an assassin. Why would you want to save him?” Xiao Rou said with great concern. Having lived here, she was much clearer about whether they should help – this was obviously someone they shouldn’t rescue!
“Xiao Rou, I don’t care if he’s an assassin. He has fainted at my feet, and I will save him. This is the principle of being human,” Mei Si Yu said. She then picked up his heavy body and struggled to carry him inside. Xiao Rou, unable to argue with her mistress’s temperament, helped by holding the person’s feet. With great difficulty, they settled him in the most hidden inner room and covered him with a blanket, only then breathing a sigh of relief.

“Miss, weren’t we supposed to go home and visit the old master? Who will take care of him?” Xiao Rou looked around cautiously.
“No one usually comes here. Besides, when we go out, we can bring medicine back. That reminds me,” Mei Si Yu said calmly, looking at the man lying on the bed.
Seeing his tightly closed eyes and frighteningly pale face, she felt an inexplicable tug at her heart. Without saying more, she left the palace with Xiao Rou.
