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

Abnormalities can occur at any time in the early stages of a kidney transplant, so she can't just abandon it.

Bei Chenyan felt a sense of relief upon hearing that she would be returning. "Have you forgotten something we talked about before we came back? We haven't done it yet."

"Is it about Fan Wuyou?" Nangong Wu hadn't forgotten, but she wouldn't bother unless he brought it up.

"Yes." Bei Chenyan felt a tightness in his chest when he thought of Shi Peiqiong, who disgusted him.

"I've already had someone make a mask for Fan Wuyou. If you're willing, you can go to the Shi residence tomorrow."

"Okay, give me the information about Fan Wuyou later." Nangong Wu nodded.

Shi Shengqing is a typical "phoenix man" (a man from a poor background who achieves success). He caused the deaths of his father-in-law and wife, ate the Fan family's extinct offspring, and even abandoned his own daughter in the village to fend for herself. In the end, he was killed by Empress Wan's own sister. These people truly deserve to die.

"When you arrive at the Shi family, Shi Shengqing and Madam Wan will suspect your identity. Just say that I saved your life, that you hit your head and lost your memory, and that it took you several years to recover." As Bei Chenyan said this, he took out a token and placed it in her hand.

"Fan Wuyou is just an orphan. The Wan family will use her identity to threaten you, and Shi Shengqing will also feel threatened and may try to kill you."

"When the time comes, don't confront them head-on. Show them my crown prince's token so the Shi family won't dare underestimate you."

"Okay." Nangong Wu didn't expect that he had already arranged everything.

She put away the token, conjured a basket of fruit with her mind, and went to Xu Qinghe's ward.

Xu Qinghe was resting in bed when he saw them arrive. He tried to sit up, "Your Highness..."

"No need to get up." Nangong Wu pressed him down to lie down and placed the fruit on the bedside table. "We just came to see you."

"Your Highness, Divine Physician, thank you." Xu Qinghe's eyes were red.

He was somewhat flattered that His Highness the Crown Prince had come to see him in person.

"Your body has recovered very well. In a few days, you can leave here and return to the East Palace to recuperate properly," Nangong Wu said to him.

"You can also choose to stay in Kyoto. I will have someone make arrangements for you. If you feel unwell in the future, you can bring your credentials to the Eastern Palace to see the imperial physician," Bei Chenyan said.

He heard from Nangong Wu that there might be aftereffects after a person donates a kidney, such as decreased kidney function, high blood pressure, proteinuria, and so on.

Even after your health improves, you still need to monitor your kidney function, control your blood pressure, and avoid risks such as kidney damage.

"Your Highness! Can I really stay?" Xu Qinghe asked.

"Okay." Bei Chenyan nodded.

"Then this humble subject wishes to stay in the Eastern Palace and, once I recover, do what I can to repay Your Highness's kindness," Xu Qinghe said.

"You can stay in the East Palace if you want," Bei Chenyan agreed. "It's just one more person. We can talk about these things after you've recovered."

He left after saying that.

Nangong Wu followed him out of the ward and mentally sent the two of them out of the space.

They are currently residing in Yongming Palace, while Yikun Palace is heavily guarded. To the outside world, they still claim that the Southern Qi Emperor is recuperating from an illness and refuse to see anyone.

But Empress Wan was still persistent and came several more times, only to be rejected each time.

Bei Chenyan walked to a desk, took out some documents and letters, and placed them on the table in front of her.

"This is the information I had collected about Fan Wuyou. Take a look."

"Okay." Nangong Wu first picked up a secret letter, opened it and read it.

The following morning.

Nangong Wu wore a veil and stood there with Li Shuang, looking at the tightly closed gates of the Shi residence.

They were all wearing fake leather masks and dressed as mistresses and servants, but Li Shuang was not a maid, but a guard.

"The Shi family mansion is indeed very grand." Nangong Wu sneered.

From this day forward, she will make this man surnamed Shi pay the price for the Fan family members they killed.

"Your Highness, I will go knock on the door first." Li Shuang, holding a sword, went up the steps to knock on the door.

After a while, someone came to open the door.

A servant came out, and seeing that they were just two women dressed plainly, he immediately showed a look of disdain on his face.

"Who are you? This is the residence of the Minister of Justice. Do you think you can knock on this gate?" The servant raised his hand to shoo them away.

"Go, if you need to find someone in the manor, go through the side gate to avoid offending important people here."

Looking at these snobbish servants, Nangong Wu couldn't help but recall the same scene when she returned to the palace after her transmigration.

"Li Shuang, there's no need to waste words with him."

Upon hearing this, Li Shuang immediately kicked the servant away, yelling, "Get out!"

"Ouch!" The servant was kicked and rolled down the steps.

Li Shuang opened the door. "Please come in, Miss."

The servant, enduring the pain, scrambled to his feet and limped to stop them. "What do you want? Do you know where you are...?"

"You're asking for it!" Li Shuang's gaze turned cold, and she kicked him again.

"Stop!" A cold shout suddenly rang out.

Nangong Wu looked up and saw a middle-aged man walking hurriedly towards her. He was dressed in an indigo robe and was slightly overweight.

Bei Chenyan had told her about the people in the Shi family, and this person was the steward of the Shi family.

Upon seeing the newcomers, the servant immediately shouted, "Steward Qian, these two women forced their way into the mansion and even hit me!"

"Who are you? Why are you here at the Shi Mansion?" Butler Qian's shrewd eyes sized up Nangong Wu.

"Butler Qian, you really have a bad memory! You don't even recognize who I am?" Nangong Wu removed the veil from her face, revealing Fan Wuyou's face.

Fan Wuyou was abandoned at the age of three and left to fend for himself. He never returned to the Shi family mansion. However, the steward, Qian, occasionally went to the manor to collect rent and had seen Fan Wuyou.

When Butler Qian saw her face, he was immediately shocked, his face turning deathly pale. "You...are you a human or a ghost...?"

"What do you think?" Nangong Wu approached him step by step. "Butler Qian's face is so pale, so he's afraid of ghosts!"

"Who exactly are you?" Butler Qian steadied himself and calmed down.

He recalled seeing that thin figure a few years ago, who lived a life worse than a servant on the estate and certainly didn't have such a strong presence.

"I am Fan Wuyou, I'm back! Take me to see my good father, Shi Shengqing!" Nangong Wu said coldly.

"How dare you! Master is a second-rank official, highly regarded by His Majesty. Who are you to dare address him by his given name?" Steward Qian demanded.

Li Shuang drew her sword with a "whoosh" and held it to Butler Qian's neck. "How dare you, you audacious dog servant, be so disrespectful to Miss?"

"Tell him to go and call Shi Shengqing out quickly. I'll be waiting for him in the main hall in the front yard." Nangong Wu stepped inside.

"Did you hear what Miss said? Go now!" Li Shuang kicked the housekeeper away.
