Chapter 140 The City Lord's Daughter Sends Help 17
Luo Chen took out silver needles and inserted a few needles into He Fancheng's acupuncture points. His complexion looked much better. He then took out a bottle of medicine for internal injuries from the package, ten pills in a bottle, and gave it to him. Then he took out medicine for external injuries and re-bandaged his wounds.
The medicines in Luo Chen's package are all thousands of years old and are much more effective than the so-called healing medicines here.
Watching He Fancheng fall asleep, Luo Chen took Shen Muxi to his room. When he was still hesitating about entering a girl's bedroom late at night, Luo Chen pulled him in.
"Come in, what are you daydreaming about?"
As soon as Shen Muxi came in, she smelled a faint fragrance and her face suddenly blushed.
"What is He Fancheng doing at the City Lord's Mansion tonight?"
Shen Muxi was surprised for a moment: "How did you know?"
"How do you think he escaped after being seriously injured and poisoned?"
Shen Muxi looked at Luo Chen in shock: "Who are you?"
"Meng Luochen."
"As far as I know, you have lived in Lishui Town since you were a child and have never left. The old lady who adopted you has also never left that town. Who taught you all these skills?"
Luo Chen said calmly, "There's a saying that goes, don't judge a person by their appearance. You can't just look at her as an old woman and ignore her."
Shen Muxi became even more curious about who the old man was. According to their information, there was no way they could be wrong, as there was nothing suspicious about the old man's life story.
Luo Chen said: "You don't have to worry so much, you just need to know that I am the eldest lady of Qinglong City, Meng Luochen."
Shen Muxi withdrew his inquiring gaze and said, "In recent years, spies from Xuanwu City have been found in Qinglong City. They seem to be trying to find out all the news about Qinglong City. Master felt that Xuanwu City was plotting something big, so he sent Fan Cheng to investigate. After listening to your analysis that day, Fan Cheng decided to explore the City Lord's Mansion at night. Unexpectedly, he was discovered. It was you who saved him."
Shen Muxi said with certainty.
Luo Chen nodded: "I came here for this purpose. Ever since Zhi Qing suddenly showed up at my homecoming banquet, I felt something was strange. And then he suddenly seemed to be deeply in love with me, which made me suspicious. He must be planning something, so I took this opportunity to come here to get some information."
Shen Muxi said: "You shouldn't act on your own. You should tell us and we will handle these things."
Luo Chen smiled slightly: "I'm afraid that Dad will worry, and I have the ability to do so myself."
Shen Muxi looked at Luo Chen and felt very distressed. Luo Chen was obviously the kind of person who would not rely on others. This was a habit he had developed after being alone for so many years and had no one to rely on. So when there was a problem, the first thing he thought of was to solve it by himself without asking others for help.
Shen Muxi carefully grasped Luo Chen's hand. Seeing that she had no objection, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You are not alone now. You still have us. You don't have to work so hard in the future."
Luo Chenhui held his hand and said, "Okay, I'll come to you if I have any problems next time."
"Ah."
Luo Chen added, "Zhiyuan's men will arrive here tomorrow morning at the latest. He Fancheng made quite a fuss tonight."
Shen Muxi was also a little worried: "Yes, we have to find a way to leave quickly."
"Don't be too hasty, otherwise it will make Zhiyuan more suspicious. We just need to take it slow like we are now and just hide our cousin."
"But Fan Cheng is so badly injured, how could he possibly escape the search?" Shen Muxi said worriedly.
Luo Chen comforted him: "It's okay, I'm here, let me show you what I can do."
"Don't be brave."
Luo Chen smiled but said nothing. At this time, Youlan came in and said, "Miss, it's so late, don't drink tea. You won't be able to sleep soon."
Shen Muxi quickly stood up: "You should have a good rest."
Luo Chen laughed out loud. Youlan looked at the person who was running away and said, "This idiot finally realized that he shouldn't stay in a girl's room until late."
Luo Chen gave Youlan a glare: "When I didn't come to see me, you looked down on me for being wooden. Now that I came to see me, you still look down on me for being wooden. Why is our Miss Youlan so difficult to please?"
Youlan stamped her feet in embarrassment and anger: "Oh, Miss, I'm doing this for your own good. If he's not considerate, then you're the one who's suffering."
"Okay, okay, our sister Youlan is the best. Please help me tomorrow."
"What's the deal?"
"Starting tomorrow, you will be the eldest lady."
"what?"
Early in the morning, the inn was surrounded by people. After Luo Chen dressed up Youlan, he went to He Fancheng's room and took a look. He found that his face was rosy. He nodded with satisfaction, took out a set of clothes from his bag and changed into them, then disguised his face to look like his and walked out.
I saw Zhiqing was making things difficult for Shen Muxi.
"Hey, what is the Fourth Young Master doing so early in the morning?"
The moment Shen Muxi saw He Fancheng, she suddenly became a little nervous but remained expressionless.
Zhi Qing: "Mr. He, the City Lord's Mansion was robbed last night. We are investigating now. Please forgive me, Mr. He."
He Fancheng hurried down the stairs: "Really? Then what was lost?"
Zhiliang said: "Nothing was lost, it's just for the safety of Xuanwu City that the inspection was stricter."
"Oh, so that's how it is. That's exactly what should be done."
Zhiliang asked, "Has Luochen not gotten up yet?"
He Fancheng said: "Yes, you sent my cousin back so late yesterday, of course she can't get up today."
Zhiqing's face darkened when he heard this: "Fifth brother, business is more important."
Zhiliang said: "Please cooperate with us in the investigation."
"No problem. You tell me how to investigate."
Zhiliang brought out a few doctors and examined the injuries of all the men in Qinglong City. None of them were found to be injured. Zhiqing still had some suspicions, but could not find any evidence.
"Please stay for a while until we catch the thief, then you can leave."
At this time Luo Chen calmed down: "Oh, why, do you suspect that we are the ones who sneaked into the City Lord's Mansion at night?"
"I didn't, Luo Chen, you misunderstood. I'm worried about your safety." Zhi Qing quickly explained.
"Really? If that's the case, let's go now. Isn't it more dangerous to stay here now?"
"No, I will protect you."
Luo Chen sneered: "Master Zhiqing is worthy of being the one who will inherit the City Lord's Mansion in the future. He is very thoughtful."
Zhiliang immediately looked at Luochen: "What do you mean?"
Luo Chen said: "Before in Lishui Town, Auntie Ma said that Zhiqing was the one who would inherit the City Lord's Mansion in the future, so he couldn't marry me. The most I could do was be a concubine."
Zhiqing's face turned pale instantly.
Zhiliang's face darkened and he said, "Since Luochen is leaving, I won't keep you here. Have a safe trip. I'll take you out to play next time."
"it is good."
Zhiliang let Luo Chen go directly. He didn't expect that this bastard still had such great ambitions after being driven out of the mansion. He couldn't keep Luo Chen under this person's nose now. Now he was glad that this person didn't know Luo Chen's true identity at that time, otherwise it would be a big trouble.
