Qin Zhenzhen stood there in shock.

Apart from the differences in time and location, this incident was unfolding exactly as it had in the original book!

This can’t be happening! It can’t be!

It seemed that Su Ning’s troubles were beginning to unfold.

The guards and servants continued to pursue the middle-aged man and the youth.

This was the governor’s residence, and there was no certainty about the intentions of these intruders. Were they fugitives, or was there some other motive behind their sudden appearance and hasty departure?

The guards and servants speculated as they chased after them. Both the middle-aged man and the youth were already injured, so if they could capture them, it might earn them favor with the governor. This could potentially lead to an improvement in their status and even release from servitude.

Once Su Ning had regained some composure, Qin Zhenzhen pulled her aside and gently inquired, “Please tell me everything from the beginning to the end.”

Su Ning was visibly shaken, her face still bearing the pallor of fear. Most young ladies would be terrified at the sight of human blood, let alone a young man covered in it. Yet, they had not only dared to intervene but had also saved him without knowing his ident.i.ty.

There was no longer any doubt. The young man they had saved must be the handsome Chu Tiansheng, which explained Su Ning’s audacity.

Su Ning had always been drawn to handsome faces.

However, Qin Zhenzhen wanted to hear all the details, as the events in the book had occurred after the Tianjing test the following spring. Su Bin had become the Primus and been appointed to the Hanlin Academy as a third-grade capital official.

He had brought Su Ning and Su Qing to the capital to keep them safe.

During that time, the Eighth Imperial Uncle’s rebellion had just been suppressed, and in order to eliminate any potential threats, he needed to eliminate those who posed a danger to him.

Chu Tiansheng had been training with his master in the northern border. When his father was poisoned to death by the Eighth Imperial Uncle and his elder brother, the Crown Prince, was murdered by the same uncle, he couldn’t return in time to mourn or prevent these tragedies.

Consequently, he had also narrowly missed falling victim to the Eighth Imperial Uncle’s a.s.sa.s.sination.

Subsequently, he realized that returning to the capital openly would be a death sentence. If he were to go back, it had to be in secret.

Chu Tiansheng and his master had secretly returned to the capital the following spring. Unfortunately, their arrival had been leaked, resulting in them being pursued by the Eighth Imperial Uncle.

The blood-covered young man had fled to the backyard of Su Bin’s residence and, in a desperate attempt to escape, had climbed over the wall and fallen to the ground. It was there that Su Ning had discovered him..

Su Ning provided a detailed account of the events. She and her maid had gone to the backyard to play, inadvertently finding themselves outside the wall. Suddenly, a bloodied young man had climbed over the wall and collapsed on the ground, unable to move.

The sounds of a fierce struggle echoed from beyond the wall.

Despite her maid’s fear and attempts to pull her away, Su Ning felt compelled to act, believing that saving a life was of greater value than building a seven-story paG.o.da. She approached the injured young man.

The young man had looked at her with hope, as if pleading for help.

Taking pity on him and sensing that he appeared kind and not malevolent, she swiftly retrieved the hemostatic powder she had brought along and used it to staunch the bleeding on his thigh.

At that moment, two guards heard the commotion and rushed over. Upon her request, they a.s.sisted in bandaging the largest wound on the young man’s thigh.

Witnessing the young man’s near-death condition, Su Ning promptly retrieved the life-saving pill given to her by Qin Zhenzhen and placed it in the young man’s mouth.

She even explained to him, “This is a life-saving pill specially crafted by my third sister-in-law. It can bring the dead back to life and swiftly restore your strength. ”

“Don’t worry,” Su Ning rea.s.sured him, “My third sister-in-law has gone to the palace to attend to the Empress Dowager’s illness.”

Upon hearing her words, the young man didn’t hesitate and swallowed the pill.

She was just about to inquire about his name when a middle-aged man scaled the wall and attempted to carry the injured youth away.

Fearing that any sudden movement might worsen the young man’s wounds, Su Ning hurriedly intervened, trying to prevent the middle-aged man. However, she was forcefully shoved to the ground by the middle-aged man..
