At the same time, the gatekeepers, seeing their master had not punished them, breathed a sigh of relief and left as well.
Soon, the hall was left with only Shangguan Xiu sitting on the sofa, eyes gloomy, and Nu Jian and Xiao Xiang standing a short distance in front of him.
"How did she get the wounds on her head and neck?" Shangguan Xiu questioned Nu Jian and Xiao Xiang in a deep voice.
He had just examined An Xiaomian and found that she had injuries on her head and neck, some old, some new, likely sustained in the past month.
She also had injuries on her fingers, but he had heard from the gatekeepers that An Xiaomian cooked for Arthur today, so he guessed the finger injuries were from cooking and chose not to point them out.
However, the wounds on her head and neck looked very gruesome, and he had to ask.
He recalled that when he left in anger from the riding field, she was perfectly fine and uninjured.
So he surmised that her injury occurred after he left.
