With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

Nangong Wu moved the blood perfusion machine away, removed the needles from the Seventh Prince's body, and used her mind to move him out of the space and place him on the bed.

"I'll go open the door." Bei Chenyan went out and opened the door.

When the door finally opened again, Emperor Mingde and Consort Shu came over.

"Young Master Xiao, how is the Seventh Prince?" Consort Shu asked first.

"The Seventh Prince has been saved. Come in and take a look!" Bei Chenyan said to them, then turned and went back into the house.

Emperor Mingde and Consort Shu entered the room.

"Princess Runing, the Seventh Prince was saved thanks to you!" Consort Shu held Nangong Wu's hand, extremely grateful.

"The Seventh Prince was poisoned too deeply this time, and the poisoning lasted too long. His internal organs are failing. I did have to go to great lengths to save him." Nangong Wu did not use any modesty or polite words.

They worked for several hours and went to great lengths to pull the person back from the brink of death, so she wouldn't say anything modest to erase her own credit.

"Yes! Once the Seventh Prince recovers, he will definitely remember your life-saving grace," said Consort Shu.

Emperor Mingde knew her temperament and pretended not to notice the sharpness in her words, then walked to the Seventh Prince's bedside.

Seeing that the Seventh Prince's face was pale, but the frightening bluish-black color had disappeared, and his chest was rising and falling slightly, it was clear that he was alive.

"Excellent, Runing! I never expected your medical skills to be so good." Emperor Mingde praised her.

"My son." Consort Shu took her son's hand, which was warm, and tears welled up in her eyes again, but this time they were tears of joy.

"Princess Runing, when will the Seventh Prince wake up?"

"Not so fast," Nangong Wu explained to them. "Although the Seventh Prince has been rescued, he is not completely out of danger yet."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Mingde and Consort Shu were on edge again.

"Ru Ning, what other medicine does the Seventh Prince need? Just tell me."

"No need for medicine, just give me some money for it! Also, I need to take the Seventh Prince with me; it will take at least seven days for him to be completely out of danger."

The Seventh Prince needs daily IV drips and blood purification, so she has to take him away.

"Also, during this period, Feng Wushang will need to take care of the Seventh Prince, so give him some compensation for his trouble," Nangong Wu said.

They deserve this money; they shouldn't refuse it.

She had helped Emperor Mingde a lot in the past and had never asked for money; from now on, she would not.

Emperor Mingde had money for the Crown Prince to squander, and she would settle accounts with him in the future.

She saved the seventh prince's life not out of kindness, but simply because she disliked the crown prince.

"This..." Consort Shu couldn't help but look at Emperor Mingde.

Emperor Mingde thought she didn't trust the imperial physicians, but he also felt that she shouldn't have been sent to the Zhenyuan Prince's residence.

"Ru Ning, judging from the Seventh Prince's appearance, he's not easy to move!"

"The next seven days are a critical period; those incompetent doctors in the Imperial Hospital can't save him." Nangong Wu spoke without any politeness:

"Firstly, I need to keep a close eye on the Seventh Prince's condition so that I can provide timely treatment if his illness changes; secondly, I don't have time to run around here all day."

Thirdly, I don't trust a single imperial physician now. The person that Feng Wushang and I worked so hard to save cannot be allowed to perish again due to someone's conspiracy.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Mingde's expression immediately turned sour.

"That's wonderful!" Consort Shu was delighted. "Princess Runing, with you personally looking after the Seventh Prince, I can rest assured!"

She no longer trusts any of the imperial physicians, only Nangong Wu, because she genuinely wants to save her son.

"Also, I won't let the theft of the Seven-Colored Lotus go so easily," Nangong Wu said.

Emperor Mingde's gaze darkened. "I have already ordered the Ministry of Justice and the Court of Judicial Review to investigate this matter. This time, I will definitely give the Seventh Prince justice."

"Let them investigate, my Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion will investigate too. If I find out who's behind this, I don't care who they are, I will make them pay the price!" Nangong Wu said with a sneer.

Nangong Chengkun has already killed the two imperial physicians, and the person who took away the Seven-Colored Lotus has also been killed by Beichen Yan, so the clues have been cut off, making it quite difficult to investigate.

But regardless of whether we can find out who's behind this, we need to explain to Emperor Mingde that we shouldn't think that just because the Crown Prince killed someone, this matter can be left unresolved.

Emperor Mingde imprisoned the crown prince, ostensibly to punish him, but in reality to protect him.

He locked that perverted Crown Prince in the Eastern Palace, thinking that no one could do anything to him.

Consort Shu was startled and secretly worried for Nangong Wu.

She knew that the Crown Prince was responsible, but knowing was one thing, and no one dared to say it. He was the Crown Prince! The Emperor protected him like the apple of his eye; who would dare to utter a single word against him?

If the Seventh Prince weren't still so young, he would have already been granted a fiefdom and left this place of trouble. But even though it was only a few months away, the Crown Prince still took action against her son.

"Alright, then I'll leave the seventh prince to you." Emperor Mingde looked at the seventh prince on the bed, a strange emotion flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, several guards walked in and knelt down before Nangong Wu.

The guard kneeling at the front cried, "Princess Runing, thank you for saving my prince."

Nangong Wu looked at the group of people and asked, "Are you the Seventh Prince's guards?"

"Yes." The guard nodded.

"Then carry the Seventh Prince to the Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion!" Nangong Wu ordered. "The Seventh Prince still needs medicine, so we can't delay. Carry him away now."

"Yes!" Several guards stood up.

"I'll go prepare the carriage."

"I'll carry the Seventh Prince on my back."

Several guards got busy.

Nangong Wu packed her medicine box and bid farewell to Emperor Mingde and Consort Shu: "Uncle Emperor, Consort Shu, I'll take my leave now!"

"Hmm," Emperor Mingde responded with a soft "hmm."

Consort Shu hurriedly followed her and escorted them to the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

The group arrived at the Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion.

After entering the Prince's residence, Bei Chenyan asked her, "Where would you like to arrange for the Seventh Prince to stay?"

Nangong Wu thought for a moment, then said to Fang Cheng, who had come with her, "Uncle Fang, the Yongyue Pavilion next to Feng Wushang is empty. Go and tidy up that courtyard!"

Feng Wushang and Bei Chenyan both live there, so there are no safety issues, and it's also convenient for Feng Wushang to help take care of the Seventh Prince.

"Princess, that courtyard is regularly cleaned, so you can move in now," Fang Cheng said.

Nangong Wu nodded, "Alright, let's go now!"

The group escorted the Seventh Prince to Yongyue Pavilion.

An hour later, Emperor Mingde's reward arrived at the Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion, bestowing upon Nangong Wu fifty taels of gold, sixty bolts of brocade, and several other treasures.

In addition, Feng Wushang will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver and several treasures.

They also sent some precious tonics to the seventh prince.

It wasn't until 9 PM that the Seventh Prince woke up. He was very weak, but his mind was still relatively clear.

When Nangong Wu heard that the man had woken up, she rushed over to see him.

"Sister Prince Runing!" The Seventh Prince cried when he saw her. "I heard from them that you saved me..."
