Could it be that this man really has some sort of backing?
The soldiers couldn’t be sure anymore, it wouldn’t be possible that they had captured someone even more significant, right?
“Don’t ask me for details, go and report to the emperor, and all will be made clear. If you don’t want disaster to befall you, you had better inform his majesty of my name, Logan. Then wait and see how the emperor will deal with me.”
Logan appeared extremely confident, and not at all perturbed about reporting to the emperor.
The soldiers looked at him, a strange expression flashing across their eyes, feeling quite complicated.
Subsequently, for the sake of their own future, they decided to take a gamble.
They didn’t mention much, just reported the name Logan to their superiors.
The reaction from above was unexpectedly strong; an imperial edict was issued immediately.
The edict clearly stated that Logan and his companions must be released and treated with respect, and anyone who dared to disobey would be dealt with severely.
The soldiers swallowed hard, thankful that they had consulted the emperor beforehand.
If they had executed first and reported afterward, and the emperor had learned of this man’s identity, perhaps the entire official residence from top to bottom would suffer, with everyone involved facing punishment.
The leader of the soldiers also broke out in a cold sweat and hurried to release the prisoners.
“Young Master Logan, it was our failure to recognize a great man, mistaking you for a criminal. It’s all our fault, this official has erred, and I hope you can be magnanimous and not blame me!”
Looking down at the magistrate on his knees before him, as well as a large group of soldiers behind him.
Logan just sneered and said nothing, sweeping past them and continuing forward.
Seeing this, the officials of the official residence felt their hearts sink.
The magistrate, with an even heavier heart, kneeled before him, presenting a treasured item.
“Young Master Logan, please be magnanimous and do not quibble with us over this. All the fault lies with me. This is the Supreme Treasure of my residence, and I would like to offer it to you to resolve the misunderstanding between us.”
Logan looked at the uneasy magistrate and eventually softened his heart.
He didn’t accept anything, pushing the offered items back.
“That won’t be necessary. You don’t need to give me anything; I have no use for it nor do I value it. As for this incident, let’s leave it be for now. However, let me make it clear beforehand, you all must fully cooperate with me in the subsequent matters, and assist me in finding the perpetrator. If you pull any more underhanded tricks, no matter how you beg, you will all die!”
With these words, Logan also made his stance clear: he did not value the magistrate’s Supreme Treasure.
For him, the most important thing was to find the perpetrator and to ensure justice.
The officials from the official residence hastily wiped their sweat and nodded repeatedly without a word.
“You’re right, what Young Master Logan says is correct, we will do as told.”
“By the way, the emperor has sent an envoy, who is currently waiting in the side hall, eager to meet with Lord Logan. Please follow me this way.”
Logan didn’t decline and quickly followed the guide to the side room.
The man was none other than the emperor’s most valued eunuch.
Upon seeing Logan, the eunuch didn’t say a word and first performed a grand salute.
“Young Master Logan, it has indeed been a long time since we’ve seen each other. Have you been well lately?”
Seeing this scene, the officials of the official residence felt their hearts pounding even more.
They had not expected that this man would have such strong connections, respected not only by the emperor but also treated with such reverence by the emperor’s closest eunuch. It was clear that this man’s identity was indeed extraordinary.
The soldiers all felt regretful; of all people, they had to capture him.
Now they had truly invited misfortune and touched the bad luck of huge proportions.
At this moment, each one of the soldiers couldn’t help but hold their breath, fearing they would be noticed.
“Young Master Logan, I have also received the emperor’s command. His majesty has a request for you, hoping that you can heal the princess. The Imperial Physicians from the Imperial Hospital are at a loss; the emperor truly has no other options, and after much consideration, only you came to mind.”
“I understand. After all, I do have some friendship with the princess; we can count as friends. I won’t ignore the princess’s situation.”
Upon receiving an affirmative response, even the eunuch couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
What followed was a torrent of lavish praise.
“I just knew that Young Master Logan is a person of benevolence and righteousness. With Young Master Logan taking action, the Princess must have a glimmer of hope.”
“There’s no need for such words, I’m just doing my best. Take me to see the Princess first.”
The eunuch didn’t delay and quickly brought him into the palace to see the Princess.
After seeing the Princess, Logan’s fingers felt for her pulse.
After a thorough diagnosis, his brow slightly furrowed, his expression unusually grave.
“The poison in the Princess requires a piece of Spiritual Medicine.”
“Oh? Do you have it with you, Young Master Logan? Which one is it?”
“White Mountain Grass.”
“Ah, although I’m not too knowledgeable, I’ve heard of some rare medicinal herbs, including this one. To find it will require some effort, and now I don’t even know where to search.”
Logan nodded.
“Nothing comes easy. I did have this herb before, but I’ve already used it up. It seems, now I must go and search for it.”
The eunuch couldn’t help but feel a bit of joy upon hearing that he once possessed the herb.
But he hadn’t expected the next news to be bad, a frustratingly unfortunate piece of bad news.
“Ah? It’s been used? Why such a coincidence? The Princess really is unlucky.”
If the medicine were still in Young Master Logan’s hands, perhaps there would still be a glimmer of hope.
“Young Master Logan, this matter can only trouble you. The Emperor himself can’t think of any solutions; the people at the Imperial Hospital are even more clueless. Considering the past acquaintance between the Princess and Young Master Logan, I hope Young Master Logan will do his best to save her.”
As the eunuch spoke, he became somewhat tearful, revealing him to be a person of deep feelings.
Towards the end, he even thought of kneeling before him.
Upon seeing this, Logan immediately reached out to stop him, steadying the man in time.
“Eunuch, what are you doing? This really humbles me; no matter what, you’re my senior. You really shouldn’t be giving me such a great courtesy.”
The eunuch wiped the corner of his eye, showing an embarrassed smile.
“Young Master Logan, please don’t take offense. The Princess is like someone I watched grow up. After leaving the palace and having my own residence, although I haven’t seen her much, the bond from our childhood is certainly not fake. Just seeing the girl I’ve watched grow up lying here so weak and frail, it truly pains my heart. Aside from the Emperor’s request, consider this a plea from an old servant to do your very best to treat the Princess. Don’t let a young girl in the prime of her life perish here. She’s still so young, has yet to find a husband, and has had no children. She doesn’t deserve this kind of life…”
The eunuch mournfully looked at the woman on the bed, seemingly reminiscing about the Princess’s childhood.
So adorable, so lively.
The Princess, grown up, was noble and beautiful too, but sadly, fate did not favor her.
Logan stepped forward, hesitated for a moment, then still patted the eunuch’s shoulder.
“Rest assured, eunuch, since I have undertaken this task, I will certainly do my best, striving to find the needed Herbal Medicine for the Princess. I’m not very capable, but I do have some confidence.”
“Very good, very good. It is indeed fortunate for the Princess to have set her sights on a person like you. The royal household hasn’t misjudged you either, Young Master Logan. I entrust everything to you now. If there’s anything you need, feel free to ask–the Emperor will certainly meet your requests.”
“I don’t need anything at the moment. If there is something I need, I will definitely speak up.”
After giving it some thought, Logan suddenly called out to Sheron Perri who was behind him.
“Sheron Perri.”
Sheron Perri had been standing a bit farther away, as he didn’t hold a very high position and wasn’t acquainted with the palace eunuchs.
Even seeing his own captain speaking freely with the eunuch, he felt somewhat envious and admiring.
It was no surprise he was the captain–seeing that even a palace eunuch would treat him with such respect. They must have had past dealings.
But what he least expected was for the captain to suddenly call his name.
After a moment of surprise, he quickly joined the others without objection.
“Captain, you called for me? Is there something you wish to instruct?”
He positioned himself as a subordinate, instinctively anticipating a task related to the Princess.
