The guards were about to stop the duo when they saw their leader following behind and immediately stepped aside.
The prefectural governor, who was enjoying tea, dropped his cup on the floor in shock upon hearing that Pei Huaian had arrived.
"Repeat that, who has come?"
"I saw the leader following behind them; they must be the ones you sent to protect."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the prefectural governor disappeared like the wind from before his eyes.
"How... Why has the lord come to my residence?"
"Get me the best side room and find the best doctor in the city,"
Pei Huaian had no time for idle talk, nor the time to explain so much.
The prefectural governor was a clever man. Seeing the girl in his arms, pale-faced and with purple lips, he knew something dangerous must have happened and immediately ordered the maids to take them to Xiangning Courtyard.
He also ordered his servants to invite the best doctors in the city.
