Over the next two days, the ruler of Danliang Country kept sending people to secretly communicate with the second elder of the Holy Hall, trying to arrange a formal meeting between the two sides.
That morning, Jianqi suddenly came to report, "Master, a dark guard from outside the Palace informed us that Qingyan has been brought to the Palace Gate with serious injuries. The guard should report to the ruler soon as well."
Bai Ruozhu was startled, "His injuries had yet to fully heal, how could he be seriously injured again? Let's hurry and check on him!"
She rushed to the Palace Gate with Jianqi and Muyu. The guards there lacked Jianqi's speed and still didn't know if they could bring Qingyan into the Palace. Upon seeing Bai Ruozhu's waist token, they let her pass.
Ruozhu quickly checked on Qingyan, finding that his internal injuries had worsened, but fortunately, the wound in his stomach hadn't reopened. They would have to start treating his internal injuries from scratch.
