Zhu Shuang did not go to look for an imperial physician. For someone who had practiced martial arts since childhood, getting injured was a common occurrence. He possessed a fundamental understanding of how to assess various types of wounds. These two marks looked severe, but they were actually just surface abrasions. If he applied medicine, it might cause inflammation or festering, but if he just left them exposed, the bruising would fade and heal on its own within eight to ten days.
Therefore, after leaving the Qianqing Palace, he slipped over to the Kunning Palace, but halfway there, he ran into Zhu Biao, Zhu Gang, and Zhu Di. Upon seeing him, the three brothers hurried over. Zhu Biao asked with concern, "Second Brother, I heard you were injured? It isn't serious, is it?" Although Zhu Gang and Zhu Di did not speak, their gazes were full of worry.
Zhu Shuang felt a warmth in his heart and deliberately swung his arm, saying, "It’s nothing. I’ve practiced martial arts since I was a child; how could I be hurt by Eighth Uncle Ma?"
