After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 322 Healing

The two of them stayed there quietly, one sleeping and the other watching, until night fell. Xu Yingying finally woke up slowly. When she opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling, she was still a little dazed, "Where am I?"

The sound of Xu Yingying mumbling to herself naturally reached Li Siqi's ears.

"Yingying, you finally woke up." Li Siqi was so excited when he saw Xu Yingying open her eyes that his hands trembled uncontrollably and his throat was a little tight.

Hearing the familiar voice, Xu Yingying's thoughts gradually came back to her senses. Thinking of what happened before she fell into a coma, Xu Yingying felt a little scared from the bottom of her heart. She didn't dare to imagine what would have happened to her if Li Siqi was not there at that time.

Xu Yingying turned her neck with some effort so that she could see Li Siqi's figure. The moment their eyes met, Xu Yingying could no longer bear the emotions in her heart and tears burst out.

Li Siqi felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He stretched out his hand tremblingly to wipe away the tears from the corners of Xu Yingying's eyes. Then he carefully helped her up and gently held her in his arms.

"It's okay, it's all over. I have caught those beasts. Don't worry, I won't let them go. Leave the rest to me. I will seek justice for you." Li Siqi concealed the cruelty in his eyes and patiently calmed Xu Yingying's emotions.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. "Your Highness, Doctor Wang has been brought in and is waiting outside. Please see..."

Li Siqi did not respond immediately after hearing this, but looked directly into Xu Yingying's eyes, "I sent someone back to Beijing to find Wang Li and brought him here. Let him take your pulse, okay?"

When Li Siqi brought the person back, he had already arranged for a doctor to see Xu Yingying. However, Li Siqi did not trust the doctors in Jun County, so he sent someone to ride back to the palace as fast as possible to find Wang Li.

Xu Yingying's mood has calmed down a lot, and she is not very resistant to the outside world. It's just that the previous events have had a big impact on her. But she is not a girl who can't withstand the storm, and her self-adjustment is still very strong.

She nodded, "Okay."

Li Siqi heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, "Come in."

Li Siqi stood up and shouted towards the door, then he sat behind Xu Yingying and let her lean against him so that she would be more comfortable.

After hearing Li Siqi's response, Wang Li pushed the door open and walked in. Just as he was about to kneel down to pay his respects, Li Siqi stopped him and said, "Doctor Wang, there is no need to be polite. Come and take the princess' pulse to see if there is anything wrong with her body."

Wang Li responded, then knelt beside the bed, and placed his fingers on Xu Yingying's pulse through the handkerchief. After a while, Wang Li withdrew his hand and said to Li Siqi, "Your Highness, there is nothing wrong with the princess's body, and there is nothing wrong with the fetus. It's just that the princess is too frightened and needs to rest well. I will prescribe a soothing prescription later. Drink it for seven days according to the prescription, and the princess will be almost well."

"What about the injuries on the princess' body?" Li Siqi frowned, afraid that there might be some problem that Wang Li couldn't see.

Wang Li made a quick inspection and said, "The injuries on the princess' body are only superficial. They don't hurt the inside. But if they are not treated properly, they may leave scars. My ancestors passed down a prescription for removing scars. I will prepare it and send it to you later. Just apply it on the wound three times a day, morning, noon and evening. When the medicine is used up, the scars will be gone."

"I understand. Thank you for your help, Doctor Wang." Li Siqi felt relieved when he heard that. As long as Xu Yingying was fine, it would be fine.

"Your Highness, please honor me. This is all my job. I will go down to prepare the prescription. I will take my leave." After saying this, Wang Li tactfully stood up and left.

Xu Yingying then said to Li Siqi: "See, Doctor Wang said I'm fine, so you don't have to worry. But those evil people..." Thinking of those people, Xu Yingying became a little worried.

“Judging from the methods they used, I am definitely not the first person to fall into their hands. But I’m afraid I’m the only one who got out of there alive. I don’t know how many victims there were before them.” Xu Yingying’s voice gradually became solemn.

Li Siqi also knew the seriousness of the matter, and his tone became serious. "I will personally investigate this matter thoroughly. As for those people, I have already locked them up. I will personally interrogate them tomorrow and will definitely not give them any chance to take advantage of me. In addition, I will also send people to search for the victims who were killed by them before. I believe there will be results soon."

Xu Yingying was very relieved about Li Siqi's arrangement, "That's good, wait until my injury gets better..."

Before Xu Yingying could finish her words, she was interrupted by Li Siqi, "You should rest well in the mansion during this period of time. I will also arrange a few more secret guards to stay with you. If I am not with you, at least they can ensure your safety and prevent this accident from happening again."

Xu Yingying nodded. She knew that Li Siqi was doing this for her own good, so she did not object but just agreed.

Soon, the feeling of fatigue came again, and Xu Yingying felt her eyelids beginning to fight each other. Coincidentally, Wang Li came to deliver medicine.

Seeing Xu Yingying like this, Li Siqi began to say, "Go to sleep. I'll apply medicine for you."

Xu Yingying was already very confused, and after hearing this, she fell asleep with peace of mind.

Li Siqi took the ointment from Wang Li's hand and began to apply it gently to Xu Yingying. The ointment was cool and felt very comfortable when applied on the burning wound. Xu Yingying had felt very uncomfortable because of the wounds on her body before, but now she felt much better. With Li Siqi by her side, Xu Yingying felt relieved and fell into a deep sleep.

After applying the medicine to Xu Yingying, Li Siqi quietly got up and left. Before leaving, Li Siqi ordered the guards to surround the place layer by layer and no strangers were allowed to enter.

Arriving at the cell where those evil people were imprisoned, Li Siqi's face was full of frost, and he stared at this group of people with gloomy eyes.

In order to prevent them from causing trouble in the prison, Li Siqi ordered that all the people be imprisoned separately and tied to pillars so that they could not move. This made it difficult for this group of people even to make a seal.

Li Siqi sat on a chair brought by the yamen runners, and looked at the people kneeling on the ground in front of him calmly. This group of evil people were not afraid of nothing, otherwise they would not have built their base in the suburbs and set up a fog array.
