But in an instant, the blood oozing from the girl's wrist decreased visibly, and Luo Shuiyao breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned to Chun Xing and asked, "Do you have a handkerchief?"
"Yes, miss." Chun Xing said as she took out a handkerchief from her arms.
Luo Shuiyao folded it and tied it around the girl's wrist again before turning around and asking Chun Xing, "What's going on?"
Chun Xing looked at the girl who was still unconscious on the bed, sighed, and whispered, "I just came in with the medicine and saw that the girl was still unconscious. I originally thought that I would apply the medicine to her first and then go find you to find a doctor to see her."
At this point, Chun Xing looked at the girl's pale face and spoke with pity, "But I didn't expect that after applying the medicine on her body, when I lifted the quilt, I saw that her wrist hidden under the quilt was cut. The blood soaked a large area of the mattress. I was so scared that I hurriedly called you in."
Hearing her say this, Luo Shuiyao understood that this girl must have taken her own life while they were not paying attention. She also blamed herself for clearly seeing the dagger but only throwing it farther away, and she did not expect this to happen.
She picked up the bloody dagger thrown aside, looked at the still unconscious girl, and instructed Chun Xing: "You clean up this room and stay here with her. Don't leave. When she wakes up, send someone to call me immediately."
Chun Xing nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Miss, don't worry, I will definitely keep an eye on her this time."
After giving the instructions, Luo Shuiyao turned around and left the room.
Manager Liu had been waiting at the door with his back to them. He only dared to turn around when he heard the door close. Seeing that it was Luo Shuiyao who came out, he bowed slightly and said, "Miss."
Luo Shuiyao nodded, then asked, "Do you know if there's a doctor nearby?"
Manager Liu shook his head at first, then nodded. Facing Luo Shuiyao's puzzled gaze, he said, "There's no official doctor in this village, but there is a local doctor. He has only a basic understanding of pharmacology, but he's not a complete expert. He can treat common headaches and fevers."
Luo Shuiyao nodded and asked, "Does he have any medicinal herbs?"
"Yes, he has quite a few medicinal herbs for daily use."
As Manager Liu spoke, he looked at Luo Shuiyao with a hint of doubt, "Miss, are you going to get some medicine for the girl inside?"
Luo Shuiyao then instructed, "Go ask the doctor if he has any herbs that can replenish blood and nourish the body. If so, have him make a batch of medicine and have Chun Xing feed it to this girl."
"Yes, miss. I'll go right away." Manager Liu responded and made a gesture to leave.
"Hey, wait a minute." Luo Shuiyao hurriedly called him.
Manager Liu turned around and looked at her with doubt in his eyes.
After a moment's thought, Luo Shuiyao asked softly, "Do you know the identity of the girl inside? Does she have any other relatives?"
Steward Liu shook his head. "I don't know. This girl was brought here by Young Master Liu. She's very stubborn. No matter how much Young Master Liu tries to persuade her, she won't agree. Young Master Liu said she's very arrogant and threatened to subdue her, so he asked us to stay here."
At this point, Manager Liu looked embarrassed, as if he found it difficult to talk about these things.
Luo Shuiyao waved her hand, signaling him not to say anything more and asked him to leave first.
Manager Liu bowed respectfully and then turned to leave.

Here, Zhuangzi and Qian Gang laboriously carried Young Master Liu, who had fainted from the pain, and hurried out of the courtyard, heading towards the mountain path. Qian Gang, elderly, was already panting after walking only a short distance. His face was filled with worry as he spoke, "Young Master Liu must not be underestimated. Although he's a bastard son of the Marquis of Jing'an, rumors say he's extremely favored. What if we treat him like this and cause trouble for the young lady?"
Zhuangzi carried the body steadily while snorting disdainfully, "What are you afraid of? Let's find a secluded place to dump him later. I'll then find a way to contact the people in the capital and have them inform the Crown Prince. What this Young Master Liu did was worse than pigs and dogs. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he's a worthless person. Who is our Crown Prince? Even with the courage of the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble for the Crown Prince because of this piece of trash."
When Qin Gang heard this, the image of the prince, who was resolute and ruthless, and hated evil, suddenly emerged in his mind. He felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "That's good, that's good."
As they spoke, the two threw Young Master Liu to the side of the road. However, this was a downhill road, and Young Master Liu's body rolled down due to inertia. As luck would have it, the back of his head hit a sharp stone.
Zhuangzi and Qin Gang were completely unaware of this. After throwing it down, they clapped their hands and were about to leave.
Halfway back, Zhuangzi heard the clatter of horse hooves behind him. He frowned, turned around, and saw someone on horseback galloping towards him not far away.
Zhuangzi squinted his eyes and thought the man looked familiar. He squinted again and took a few steps back. Then he suddenly shouted in surprise, "It's the young general!"
Qin Gang was stunned for a moment and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Major General? What major general?"
Ye Yunzhou saw the two of them from a distance and wondered: What are they doing here?
He immediately whipped the horse whip to spur it on even faster. After hearing Zhuangzi's cry, he whipped it again, and the horse rushed forward like an arrow.
Soon, he arrived in front of the two people. After seeing that it was Zhuangzi and Qin Gang, he suddenly tightened the reins. The horse neighed and stopped steadily. Ye Yunzhou nimbly dismounted and asked anxiously, "Why are you here? Where is the young lady?"
Zhuangzi scratched his head, puzzled as to why he was so anxious, but then he understood: he was worried about the young lady. So, Zhuangzi smiled and stepped forward, "General, I was just trying to figure out how to contact you later. Our young lady is inside the manor, safe and sound."
When Ye Yunzhou first saw them here, he thought something had happened to Luo Shuiyao and was worried. Hearing that Luo Shuiyao was fine, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "What are you two doing here?"
When Zhuangzi heard his question, he thought for a moment and then told him roughly what had happened in Zhuangzi.
Ye Yunzhou listened, his expression gradually darkening. "Where did you take Young Master Liu?" he asked again.
Zhuangzi pointed and said, "Look, it's right there."
Ye Yunzhou looked in the direction he pointed and saw a person lying on the roadside not far away. He pondered for a moment and said, "Come with me and take a look."
