Chapter 2221 Someone sent a note
It was not easy to endure until early the next morning. As the sun rose, Dugu Hong, who had slept very comfortably, walked out of her room.
Coming to the big tree in front of the door, she looked at Guan Qirui with disgust, “Are you, this trash, not dead yet?”
“Woo woo woo…”
Guan Qirui’s mouth was stuffed with a rag, and he kept twisting his body, whimpering.
“With someone like you, what Face do you have to talk to me?”
Dugu Hong said this, but she waved her hand at the guards behind her, “Unstuff his mouth, I want to see what he has to say.”
After the rag was pulled out of his mouth, Guan Qirui gasped for air and then said, “I wasn’t like this originally; I was harmed by someone.”
Dugu Hong curled her lips: “Trash is trash, yet you still have the nerve to make excuses for yourself.”
Guan Qirui said, “What I’m saying is true; that kid did something to me.”
“So what? Do you still expect this Princess to avenge you?”
Dugu Hong looked disdainful. In her eyes, Guan Qirui was merely a plaything and not taken seriously at all.
Guan Qirui did not give up and said again, “Many people know that I am now married into the Laiyang Royal Mansion, including the Yuan family and the Gong family.
If the news that I am a trash gets out, it will not look good for the King and your Face.”
Dugu Hong frowned. As the Laiyang Princess, she indeed valued her Face greatly.
“Stop beating around the bush. Tell me, what do you want this Princess to do?”
“It’s simple. That kid is a young Medical skill practitioner who opened a clinic in the Great Shun Empire Royal City. As long as he is captured, my body can be restored.”
Guan Qirui was also very shrewd. Knowing that he couldn’t command this Princess on his own, he threw out another temptation.
“His Medical skill is excellent, calling it Divine Artifact is not an exaggeration. He can make severed limbs Rebirth, so he must also have a way to change your appearance.”
Indeed, this method was very effective. As the saying goes, what a person lacks, they care about the most.
For Dugu Hong, the greatest temptation was beauty.
The beauty pill from yesterday was used as soon as it was brought back, but there wasn't much change.
Now, hearing that someone could make her beautiful, her small eyes immediately sparkled: “Do you know the consequences of deceiving me?”
Guan Qirui said, “In my current state, how dare I deceive you!
His name is Ye Bufan, and he opened a clinic called Gu Yi Men Clinic in the city. The matter of making severed limbs Rebirth has spread throughout half the Great Shun Empire Royal City; you just need to inquire to find out.”
“Good to know. If there’s even half a lie in what you said, I’ll cripple you when I return.

you.”
After Dugu Hong finished speaking, she immediately waved to the guards beside her, “Call people and follow me. Go and snatch that young Medical skill practitioner back.”
Watching their departing backs, Guan Qirui’s lips curled into a cold smirk of triumph.
Although he hadn’t interacted much, he had a basic understanding of Ye Bufan’s personality and knew that he would never yield to such a woman. Conflict between them was inevitable.
At that time, no matter who won, it would be equivalent to avenging himself. It would be best if both sides suffered heavy losses and both died.
At the Guan family, with his son captured, Guan Chengfang hadn't slept all night, anxiously pacing in his room, trying to come up with a plan.
However, facing the current situation, even though he was old and cunning, he couldn't think of a good idea for a while.
As dawn approached and the sky began to lighten in the east, there was a sudden rustle at the window, followed by a flash of white light shooting towards him.
Guan Chengfang jumped, about to dodge, but then he saw the white light land on the table in front of him. It was clearly a paper ball the size of an egg yolk.
He looked up, and a figure flashed at the window, then disappeared.
He opened the window and found it completely quiet outside, not even a single person in sight.
“Who exactly is this? What is their purpose?”
After so many incidents at the Guan Residence, it had always been heavily guarded, with several Elder sitting in charge.
The fact that the other party could arrive and leave so silently indicated their extremely high cultivation.
The other party did not attack him, which meant there was no hostility, so what was their purpose?
With doubts in his heart, Guan Chengfang came to the table and reached out to pick up the paper ball.
He carefully unfolded the paper ball and saw a line of small characters written on it.
“The one who framed your son is Ye Bufan. The one who entered Prince Kaoshan's Residence at night is Ye Bufan. Princess Situ is currently at the Gu Yi Men Clinic.”
The number of words was not many, but after Guan Chengfang read it, a monstrous wave surged within his heart.
Who was this person? How did he know that Ye Bufan framed his son?
Guan Chengfang reached out and patted his head, suppressing his excitement, and began to quickly calculate.
He had previously guessed that all of this was done by Ye Bufan, but he had no way to do anything.
The other party had a Dongxu Realm expert as a backer, so he couldn't move against him.
But now it was different. With the latter two pieces of information, the space he could operate in would be much larger.
No matter how powerful the other party was, could they be more powerful than Prince Kaoshan in this Great Shun Empire?
Now, the most important thing was how to confirm whether what the other party said was true or false. How could Princess Situ be at the Gu Yi Men Clinic?
If this matter were left to Guan Qirui,
(End of this chapter, please turn the page)
he would probably immediately run to Prince Kaoshan's Residence to report it.
But now it was the seasoned and steady Guan Chengfang. He wanted to first confirm if it was true or false. If it was true, then it would be time for the Guan family to turn things around.
As long as Prince Kaoshan took action to apprehend the other party and prove that his son was framed, Guan Qirui could immediately be brought back from the Laiyang Royal Mansion.
But if it was false, he would inevitably incur Prince Kaoshan’s wrath.
After careful consideration, confirming that his plan was sound, he decided to visit the Gu Yi Men Clinic.
In the past few days, the entire Great Shun Empire Royal City had learned the rules of this clinic: don't even think about entering without a thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones.
He checked his Storage Ring and scrounged around, barely managing to gather a thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones, before leaving the house.
To be honest, his current state as family head was quite pathetic. He used to spend lavishly, but now he was so impoverished from extortion that he had to scrounge for even a thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones. Thinking of this, he gnashed his teeth in hatred even more.
Ye Bufan returned to the Gu Yi Men Clinic without alarming anyone, quietly going back to his room.
He first set up a Restriction, then took out the dragon absorption stone and carefully examined it.
This item emitted surging heat, and when Divine Sense swept into it, one could immediately feel a huge pressure.
He had felt it before in the Dragon King Palace. This was the Dragon Qi from the Dragon Clan. Just a trace of it had elevated the Heavenly Thunder Pearl to the level of a Divine Artifact.
“It really is a good thing!”
He nodded in satisfaction and put away the dragon absorption stone.
Now he had the main ingredient for refining the Dragon Breath Pill, but he still lacked another medicinal ingredient. He needed to gather them all before he could start the Alchemy furnace.
Afterward, he went to bed to rest, opening the clinic for business early the next morning.
After several incidents, the people around knew that this clinic had a strong background and absolutely could not be provoked.
So they all kept their distance, and the entire hall looked a bit deserted.
Xiao Qing sat nearby, still tirelessly playing Tetris.
Lan Meier had completely stayed at the clinic, acting extremely diligent. She had already taken over the cleaning duties from Zhongli Mei and was constantly busy in the room.
Nalan Yujia, Lu Xueman, and Hu Yaoyao, the girls, had nothing to do and gathered together, chatting idly.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Chu Lingxi always wore a veil whenever she stepped out of the back hall.
Everything was ready, and Jiang Fangzhou opened the clinic door for official business.
Just as the door opened, Zhang Xiaoyu excitedly ran in.
“Big Brother, something happened, something big happened!”
