Haitang carried the cold water into the house, wiping her tears while using the cold water to wipe Lu Ling's red skin.
Lu Ling lay on the couch blankly, his heart ashen as death.
"Miss, if you feel pain, just cry." Haitang sniffed.
Qi Sisi took out a large jar of medicine from nowhere and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, it's not cooked. The Taoist priest had some conscience and didn't use too high-temperature water to bathe you. I've seen it, it's a slight burn. It’s not a big problem, just take this bottle of medicine and you’ll feel better.”
Lu Ling murmured: "Haitang, Doctor Qi, my body hurts so much."
Qi Sisi sighed and said, "Then I'll give you two painkillers."
After Lu Ling ate, he still felt pain.
She didn't know that it was actually hot.
"Begonia, light a candle."
Haitang realized that every time the young lady was weak, she would be asked to light candles.
This time she didn't ask any more questions, got up and went to find a candle.
Song Wenzhou and others have been driven out of Qingfengyuan by Song Qi.
At this time, there were only the servants who usually served in the courtyard.
In the corner, Xiao Rong sat on the ground, hugging her legs and wiping tears. Elsewhere, Xiaohui looked nervous.
"Doctor Qi, I can't figure out why my clothes are bleeding."
Qi Sisi moved her hands.
Lu Ling's face was full of confusion. What was the problem?
Qi Sisi frowned and said angrily: "You don't have to worry about it, I know what the problem is."
Lu Ling's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he stretched himself out to sit up.
But after trying it, she found that she couldn't exert any strength.
That tank of water didn't really hurt her, but the Buddha's light in the temple seemed to be still eroding the Yin Qi in her body.
Qi Sisi held the medicine jar in her hand and touched the green cold ointment to Lu Ling's exposed skin, explaining: "The bleeding in your clothes is just an illusion. The red thing is not blood, but a chemical reaction. The problem lies in your clothes. superior."
"Clothes? You mean, they tampered with my clothes beforehand?" Lu Ling was surprised.
Qi Sisi nodded: "Have you forgotten what I said this morning? I smelled the fragrance of roses in your room when I came in? I also said that there seemed to be a faint medicinal smell in the fragrance."
When Lu Ling heard this, the knot in his mind suddenly opened.
Ah.
She understood, it was Xiaohui...
She thought she was treating her sincerely, but it turned out...it turned out that she was here to take revenge on herself!
It's a shame that I foolishly thought about using her again in the future.
It seems that there are not so many broad-minded people in this world.
In Prince Zhao's Mansion, the banquet did not end until Haishi.
After everything was settled in the palace, Shen Yufeng walked to the bedroom.
"Your Highness, Miss Xiaoqian is here."
Xiaoqian was the maid Shen Yufeng ordered to take care of Lu Ling when Lu Ling arrived in the capital.
But in fact she is no ordinary maid.
Shen Yufeng paused and said in a deep voice: "Go into the study and talk."
Xiaoqian followed Shen Yufeng closely into the study.
Shen Yufeng sat directly in the chair and asked, "Have you found any results on the two things I asked you to check?"
Xiaoqian cupped her fists and saluted, and said: "Master, the first thing is, you asked your subordinates to check the identity of the young lady of the Song family, and they have already found out.
"Her family has been in business for generations, and there is no doubt about her identity. Mrs. Lu is indeed suffering from madness. Mrs. Song has been seriously ill in the Song family in the past, and she only recovered three months ago.
"Prefect Song is an upright official. He has no ambitions and has no disadvantages to the prince."
Hearing this, Shen Yufeng subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that I am really paranoid.
She doesn't have any purpose for herself, that's fine.
Shen Yufeng's face seemed a little prettier.
He raised his head and asked, "What about choosing the princess?"
He had previously suspected that the prince would do something about it.
Xiaoqian lowered her eyes and said, "I discovered that the Zhu family, a wealthy family in Weicheng, seems to have secret contacts with the prince's men."
"Zhu family?" Shen Yufeng couldn't help but frowned, "Tell me about it."
Xiaoqian nodded: "The Zhu family is an aristocratic family in Weicheng. Our ancestors are all scholars. The father of the current Mr. Zhu was once the teacher of the late emperor. However, for generations, the Zhu family has not admired the powerful and has not been an official. But now The first head of the Zhu family made an exception.
"That is the current second master of the Zhu family. He violated the ancestral precepts and not only engaged in business, but also had contacts with officials in the capital."
Shen Yufeng remembered it after hearing this.
The late emperor, his grandfather, lived among the people when he was young. It is said that he had a learned man as his teacher. That man was the father of Mr. Zhu. Later, when the late emperor ascended the throne and became emperor, he ordered that Mr. Zhu’s father be made emperor. teacher, but was declined.
In these years, the Zhu family has only taken the responsibility of imparting knowledge and has never had any contact with people in the officialdom. Almost all the scholars in Weizhou wanted to become the master of the Zhu family.
Precisely because the Zhu family was wealthy and lived in poverty, the second master of the Zhu family couldn't bear this life, so he separated from the family and left the Zhu family's ancestral precepts and character behind.
Xiaoqian continued: "The second master of the Zhu family has a daughter who is said to be extremely beautiful and well-educated. I suspect that the prince will take advantage of this girl."
"Yes." Shen Yufeng nodded, "In that case, go ahead and investigate, but don't reveal the truth. If the prince really wants to send that woman to me, then let him do it."
Xiaoqian raised her eyes and saw Shen Yufeng's expression was indifferent.
Yes, what will happen if it is delivered? I am afraid that within a few days, the woman will be killed by cold or by torture.
They don't need to do anything at all.
Xiaoqian bowed and went out.
The next day, Jing Yu met an absent-minded Song Qi.
He hurriedly walked to him and patted his shoulder.
Song Qi turned around and saw Jing Yu, and quickly saluted: "Guard Jing."
Jing Yu looked around, then put his hand on his shoulder and asked quietly: "General Song, how are you at home?"
"Ah?" Song Qi thought he heard wrongly. You are obviously not familiar with this Guard Jing, okay? Why do you come here to inquire about your family affairs?
Jing Yu asked eagerly: "I'm asking what happened to your family yesterday? Didn't your sister-in-law say she was tied up? Who tied her up? Is she okay now?"
Song Qi quickly pushed Jing Yu's hand away from his shoulders, took a step back, and tried his best to look respectful.
Although the person in front of him was just a bodyguard, he was the prince's personal bodyguard, and he didn't dare to offend him.
But Song Qi couldn't help but wonder. Judging from his appearance, he clearly cared about his younger siblings. Could it be that they knew each other?
"Brother, why are you so dazed?" Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Jing Yu pushed his chest with some dissatisfaction.
Song Qi came to his senses, thought about it, and told Jing Yu what happened at home.
Jing Yu was so shocked that he opened his mouth from ear to ear and said angrily: "Is your brother and sister being bullied like this at home? Your mother and your brother are simply not human beings!"
Song Qi hurriedly said: "Guard Jing, be careful. Please don't tell anyone about this matter. I'm afraid it will harm the reputation of my brothers and sisters if it gets out."
Hearing this, Jing Yu couldn't help but said, "You care about your siblings very much."
Song Qi couldn't help but frown, and said: "Guard Jing, don't say this nonsense."
