Chapter 2574 - 58: Return
A person who can lead a hundred people is certainly not a fool; their mind turns quickly, and they soon understood the key points.
"Yes, yes, the Eldest is right," Fourth flattered him.
The Eldest waved his hand, "The rest of you go back up the mountain first, Fourth, you and a few others come into the city with me."
"Understood!"
Meanwhile, San brought Li Luru back to the prefecture and hurried to call a doctor. When he saw the tongue with a missing tip, he, a grown man, actually shed tears.
How great must the suffering have been to lead to this.
He must send another message to the master, urging him to return soon. The person behind this must not be allowed to be arrogant for too long.
"Miss, this wound wasn’t treated in time and has become infected. I’m afraid you won’t be able to speak for a while,"
Li Luru blinked upon hearing this, picked up a pen from nearby, and wrote, "When will I be able to speak?"
The old doctor, who was invited by Mu’s Clinic, sighed deeply, "To be frank, Miss, I can’t say for sure. The tongue is an organ that helps people speak. If the entire tongue were severed, you certainly wouldn’t be able to talk. But for cases like yours, where a part of the tongue tip is gone, it shouldn’t be a problem in theory. Yet, everyone is different; some can still speak after losing half their tongue, but some, like you, can’t speak due to untreated wounds leading to infection."
"We have to see how the treatment goes next. If the recovery is good, perhaps you’ll speak again; if not, it’s hard to say."
After saying this, the old doctor prescribed a few more medicines and then left.
San came in from outside and overheard the doctor’s words, feeling even worse. If an unfortunate young lady becomes mute, it might be the end for her.
So another letter was sent out from Yun’an.
"What’s going on with San?" Ye Haoxuan asked in the small garden, "Why are the two letters separate?"
"I don’t know, sir,"
Ye Haoxuan opened the letter with uncertainty, and when he read the contents, his face turned as dark as ink.
"Heh..."
"Prepare the horses, we set off immediately,"
"Huh?" the small garden exclaimed, "Aren’t we staying overnight?"
"We ride through the night,"
Ye Haoxuan hurried out, meeting Ye Haoyang head-on.
"Leaving now?"
"Yes,"
Following behind, Ye Rongqing asked, "What happened? Why is Eldest Brother in such a rush?"
Ye Haoyang shook his head.
"Could it be that something happened to our future sister-in-law?" Ye Rongqing murmured, "Otherwise, why would Eldest Brother be in such a hurry?"
"Why ask so much? It’s best to mount up and leave quickly,"
The small garden knew it couldn’t persuade the masters, so he packed some dry food for the journey.
They traveled day and night, and on the morning of the second day, a group of horsemen entered the prefecture.
San and the others were temporarily staying in a house arranged by the Prefect of Yunzhou Prefecture, which San had arranged after finding Li Luru, fearing anything might happen again.
"Master, you have returned!" San knelt, "It’s my fault for failing to protect Miss Li, please punish me."
"We’ll deal with it later!"
Ye Haoxuan said, bypassing him.
"San, get up quickly," Ye Rongqing smiled and said, "My brother has no mind for punishing you right now. His thoughts are all on my future sister-in-law."
"Second Master, Third Master!" San stood up and hurriedly saluted the two.
Ye Haoyang waved his hand, "Tell us, have you found out who took Miss Li?"
