"Your Highness, what is happening to you? This is scaring me now." Eunuch Jiu hurriedly helped her clean up the blood, but she needed an entire change of clothes. Xuan Cheng however gestured him not to panic and that she is totally fine with it. She can get changed later.
After wiping the floor again, Eunuch Jiu knelt down and said, "We all are very much responsible for your condition. If only we had not left you alone, the assassin would have never stepped in." The guilt dripped from his face as he expressed his feelings together with what every responsible and loyal servant felt.
"It's not your fault, the assassin probably was among us for a couple of days and none of us noticed." Xuan Cheng's eyebrows wrinkled as she explained, remembering her battle the last night.
"What does Your Highness means? Was he or she someone hired by us?" Li Quan questioned, puzzled, and blaming himself for bringing such a person to the mansion.
