Jiang Ning of Luoshui County Visits the Valley! (Thanks to Xingzai Reading for the Generous Donation)

Inside the room.

"Master!"

Seeing Wang Jin rise from the bed, Jiang Ning cupped his hands, guilt written across his face.

"Weren't you supposed to be in Dongling City at this hour? Why are you here with me?" Wang Jin looked at Jiang Ning in surprise.

"Lord Hong notified our colleagues in Dongling City. They told me at the city gate, and the moment I heard the news, I ran all the way here!"

"You ran here?" Wang Jin looked at Jiang Ning, visibly moved, before smiling. "It's nothing serious, just a few superficial wounds. If someone saw you racing down the road like that, they'd think you were rushing to a funeral, boy!"

Jiang Ning calmly shook his head, then looked at the physician beside him.

"Doctor Niu, how is my master's condition?"

"Th-this..." The old man was immediately at a loss for words, remembering Wang Jin's earlier instructions.

Jiang Ning understood at once.

"Just speak plainly. There's no need to heed my master's instructions. If you conceal anything and delay the treatment of his injuries, you will not be able to bear the consequences."

Hearing this, the old man glanced at Wang Jin, then clenched his teeth.

"Lord Jiang, let us speak outside!"

"Fine." Jiang Ning nodded.

Then he looked at Wang Jin. "Master, I'll step out for a moment. Rest assured—I will definitely do everything in my power to treat your injuries."

He then said to Hong Minghu and Ye Qiu, "Lord Hong, Brother Ye, I'll be going out for a moment!"

"Go on." Hong Minghu smiled warmly. "Now that you're here, I can rest easy. I'll return to the Inspection Office first!"

Seeing this, Ye Qiu also cupped his hands in farewell.

The two of them took their leave first.

In the rear courtyard.
