He had been feeling really annoyed by the Crown Prince not visiting him in the court and thought that he just hurried back to the capital without finishing his task at the county.

He had not had a good sleep throughout the whole night because he was so unhappy.

However, he was very pleased by this good news.

According to the description, he could tell that the thing that hurt people was not something ordinary. The King even suspected that it was related to Destiny Monk and the Phoenix Girl. So he just wanted to know what exactly had happened.

So it was good that the news had come.

He would very much like to see what on earth the thing was, since Destiny Monk might show up because of that.

Well, that was what the King thought.

The Eunuch continued. “However, the Crown Prince was attacked yesterday. He was not injured, but it was a terrible situation back then. The Crown Prince must have gotten frightened so the whole team came back to the capital yesterday.”

“What? The Crown Prince was attacked!” The King was a bit surprised.

All he knew was that the Crown Prince returned to the capital, but he didn’t know what happened at Li County.

So he returned because of the attack! The Crown Prince did not want to tell him about this! What could he do about this?

The King was not in the mood to think about the monster, but said, “How is the Crown Prince now? I will get someone to visit the Crown Prince’s Mansion and let Prime Minister Chu return with the body of the monster!”

“Yes”

“Lady Chaoyan is a very good doctor, so inform Lord Huai about this so that Lady Chaoyan could go and check up on the Crown Prince!” The King ordered when he thought of how he recovered after taking the prescription by Gu Chaoyan.

The Eunuch responded with a small yes when he heard the order.

However, the other ministers were wearing very terrible expressions on their faces.

They believed that the King was getting worse and worse mannered.

Elder Miss was Lord Huai’s fiance, so how could he give the order in the palace! He could have done that privately!

However, the King dismissed the morning session without caring about how the ministers felt…

The moment the King was gone General Liu snorted and shook his head.

He left directly too.

Gu Chaoyan, who was called out in the palace, was currently at Xinlin Clinic.

All seven of the most seriously-injured people woke up, and were doing well. Some could even walk in the yard.

Shanhu, in particular, recovered best.

After Gu Chaoyan gave them the acupuncture, she went to drink tea in the yard without being worried at all.

Zhou Huaijin hurred in.

“Prime Minister Chu has a living one at Li County!” Zhou Huaijin said the moment he sat down.

Although he found calling those things alive strange, that was the best word he could come up with. Those things were so difficult to grasp.

Gu Chaoyan was a bit surprised, and her eyes were sparkling.

She was very interested in studying that thing so she intended to go to Li County directly.

She was about to reveal her plan when it became noisy again outside.

A woman’s scream arose.

Was that Qu Hua?
