Zhu Yu then stood up, and Lu Qing took her hand. Although the cloth towel was originally dried, fresh blood now seeped through again. He frowned but said nothing, quietly tightening the cloth again over the wound.
Zhu Cheng watched as Lu Qing bandaged Zhu Yu, a complex look in his eyes. He didn't speak until Lu Qing was done. "What were you saying about the Commandery Princess from Jie Country earlier? What does it mean?"
"On our way back from Risun Ridge, we accidentally encountered the Jie Country's Princess Yan Shu traveling alone on the outskirts.
She unexpectedly fell from her horse and injured her leg. We feared that her presence in Shuo Land would cause complications if discovered by outsiders, so we discreetly brought her back to the Prince Mansion to recuperate.
No one else is aware of this matter. It has been handled properly. Once she recovers, we will find a way to send her away. There is no need for Father to worry about this.
