At this moment, Shen Fu didn't care about settling scores with someone for their "jinx"; she just wanted to figure out what was going on.

"What do you mean by 'missing without a trace'? He'll definitely be alright, right?"

Butler Liu simply sighed. "I heard the enemy used gunpowder in the attack, and the wind further amplified the explosion. That cliff is thousands of feet high; even the most skilled martial artist would be pulverized in a fall, let alone the prince, who was already severely injured when he fell. I'm afraid... his chances of survival are slim!"

The odds are against them!

The last four words made Shen Fu's heart tremble violently.

He suddenly took a step back, almost knocking over the chair next to him.

In his previous life, he did indeed die on the battlefield at this time.

That's why she rushed over to stop him when she learned he was going to war.

With the imperial decree issued and everything settled, she could only bring up the matter of the "dream" to remind him to be careful on this trip.

In the end, is it still impossible to change the outcome?

Yun Dai saw this and thought to herself, "She really loves her husband!"

Out of friendship and personal motives, she did indeed consider making the Xuan King disappear.

So that he wouldn't return one day to find out he'd been cuckolded and, in a fit of rage, seek revenge on the man.

Neither side would suffer heavy losses or both would perish, which would be a bad thing.

But seeing Shen Fu's devastated state, he felt a pang of pity.

Forcibly taking another man's wife is already immoral, and now they're even cursing her husband to death?

What a sin!

She quickly stepped forward to comfort him, "Don't worry, it's just a missing person report. They haven't said he's really dead. No news is good news!"

Shen Fu finally came to her senses.

That's right, as long as we haven't seen his body, there's still hope.

The deal between them is not yet finalized.

He told her to wait for him to come back!

He is the Xuan King, the God of War of Dayong, and he will always keep his promises!

……

Upon receiving the news, Jun Anning rushed to the Xuanwang Mansion.

She was afraid that Shen Fu would not be able to handle the blow and wanted to come and comfort her, but she was also worried that her words would not be strong enough, so she brought her imperial brother along.

As it turned out, Jun Jingyan was indeed a very good "persuader".

"I believe that Xuan Wang is a lucky man and will be alright. Although we haven't found his whereabouts yet after he fell off the cliff, no news is good news."

Shen Fu's heart skipped a beat. Why did this way of comforting people sound so familiar?

It seems like I just heard about it not long ago?

Seeing her haggard and weak appearance, Jun Anning felt extremely distressed.

Sister Shen recently suffered a miscarriage and betrayal by her sworn sister, and now she may face the pain of losing her husband.

Why did someone as good as her have to go through something like this?

"Brother, I want to stay here and keep Sister Shen company."

Jun Jingyan nodded: "That's only right. I will inform your mother for you."

At the same time, he was also making another decision in his mind.

I will go to the palace now and ask my father, the Emperor, to allow me to personally lead troops to the Northwest to search for the person!

King Xuan had countless military achievements and protected the territory of Dayong. King Xuan's wife even spoke up for her mother at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, clearing her name of suspicion.

They are all grateful people, so naturally they couldn't just sit idly by.

We must see her alive or dead; we must give her an explanation no matter what!

Just as I reached the door, I unexpectedly bumped into a woman.

With a loud crash, the medicine bowl the other person was holding fell to the ground.

The bowl shattered into pieces, and the tonic inside spilled all over the floor.

"Ah! My medicine!"

Seeing the woman's pained expression, Jun Jingyan quickly apologized.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly jumped up and opened her palms towards him.

"Pay up!"

Jun Jingyan was stunned for a moment, and instinctively reached out to touch his money pouch.

I suddenly realized that I had left in a hurry today and hadn't brought it with me.

"I...I'll send someone back to get it now."

"There's no need for that. How about..."

Yun Dai's eyes lit up as she stared at the white jade flute at his waist.

Seeing this, Shen Fu quickly stepped in front of Jun Jingyan.

The second prince, gentle and refined, with the demeanor of a gentleman, is likely to be swindled out of even his undergarments by this money-obsessed holy physician.

"Isn't this medicine for me? Even if there's a claim, it's not your place to demand compensation."

Yun Dai hurriedly retorted, "It took me three hours of hard work to brew that, and I used many of my most prized medicinal herbs!"

"The consultation fee of fifty thousand taels has already been paid. What you do with it is up to me. Either you return the money now."

"..."

The man asked her to come and protect Shen Fu, not only to guard against any underhanded attacks, but also to help her improve her health.

He said that being able to faint so easily meant his constitution was too weak and needed to be strengthened.

He wouldn't let her go all night, and then complained that she was too weak?

He should reflect on his own actions first!

However, it would be foolish not to make money when there is opportunity, so she immediately offered an "astronomical price" of 50,000 taels.

The banknotes haven't even been warmed up yet, and they're already going to take them back?

Isn't that the same as tearing her flesh out?

Although Jun Jingyan couldn't understand their conversation, he knew that he had accidentally knocked over the medicine jar, and that he should compensate them.

I didn't bring any money with me today, so I had to hand over the jade flute I was carrying.

Yun Dai accepted it without hesitation, not forgetting to give Shen Fu a provocative look.

See? He gave it to me himself, not the one I asked for!

Seeing this scene, Jun Anning became somewhat interested in Yun Dai.

Ordinary women would have their eyes light up when they saw the Second Prince, and would try every means to get close to him.

She's got nothing but money in her eyes!

That's really interesting!

After resolving the matter, Jun Jingyan hurriedly entered the palace.

Yun Dai received another treasure and left satisfied.

After the two "parties involved" left, Jun Anning took the opportunity to inquire with Shen Fu.

"That young lady from earlier looked unfamiliar; I don't think I've seen her before when I visited the Xuan Prince's residence?"

"She is... the new doctor in the household."

Shen Fu thought about it for a while, but still didn't tell the truth.

First, the title of "Holy Physician" is too prestigious; if it gets out, it will surely attract a lot of trouble.

Secondly, I also need to explain how they met, which might involve the man's affairs.

Third, she already considered Jun Anning a friend and didn't want to lie to her. This answer couldn't really be considered deception; Yun Dai's identity as a doctor was indeed beyond question.

Although she spoke modestly enough, Jun Anning was still surprised.

"A female doctor? She seems to be about our age, right?"

In her eyes, people who could become doctors were all elderly men over fifty with gray hair, never expecting that it would be such a young and beautiful girl.

Then I thought of the white jade flute that my second brother had given away...

That was his prized possession, and he never parted with it.

He had asked him for it several times without success, yet today he so generously gave it to a woman.

Could this be a coincidence?
