Qinghengyuan.

The sun was rising, and there was a hint of heat in the wind.

After Mrs. Shen woke up, she didn't see Rong Shu. She only found out that she had gone to Qiu Yuntang when the people below her talked about it. After thinking about it for a moment, he knew why her daughter went to Qiu Yuntang.

Aunt Zhou came in with the medicine and said to Shen: "Madam, the tranquilizing medicine is ready. Drink it while it's hot."

Shen took the medicine and said, "Did you tell Zhao Zhao about Zhuangzi?"

Grandma Zhou immediately knelt down and apologized honestly: "It was the old slave who told the eldest lady. The old slave was really dissatisfied with the old lady's behavior, so he broke his mouth and asked the madam to punish her."

Mrs. Shen looked at the gray-haired man on the temples . Aunt Zhou sighed quietly in her heart. Aunt Zhou was her wet nurse, and she had been with her from a baby learning to talk to a married woman and a mother.

How could she not understand the sincerity with which Nanny Zhou treated her?

"Mommy, please get up quickly. Let's talk about Zhuangzi's affairs. After all, Zhaozhao has grown up. There are some things that you don't need to hide from her."

"Madam, don't worry, I have never mentioned a word about that matter to the eldest girl. "When Nanny Zhou said this, her voice was slightly choked, "Madam, you really don't think about it for a few days, then after all-"

"Nanny," Mrs. Shen interrupted Nanny Zhou and said decisively: "I have made up my mind. You don't need to persuade me anymore."

Halfway through, two servant girls from the outer courtyard ran into the corridor and knocked on the door, shouting: "Madam, something happened! My uncle was injured on Chang'an Street!"

...

Gu Changjin! About the injury, Rong Shu had just stepped into the Yuedong Gate of Qinghengyuan when he heard Yingque tell him.

"I heard that some fugitives came to Chang'an Street to cause trouble, and that's why my uncle was injured! Girl, do you think we should go back now?"

Rong Shu was shocked when he heard that Gu Changjin was injured, and held the gun in his hand. I almost couldn't hold the round fan firmly.

The incident in the previous life clearly happened when we set out for the Hou Mansion. How come half a day has passed and we still can't escape this unforeseen disaster?

wrong.

An idea suddenly popped into Rong Shu's mind, and she looked at Yingque.

"Is there any trouble in Chang'an Street this morning?"

"No, girl," Yingque said confused, "There was only one trouble in Chang'an Street today, just half an hour ago."

Rong Shu's eyelashes trembled.

In the previous life, the Dongcheng Bingma Division and the Shuntian Prefecture arrested more than twenty people during that chaos, including three fugitives from the North Town Fu Division.

Speaking of which, there were not only people looking for their heads in Chang'an Street at that time, but also many people from Dongchang.

Those gangsters kept claiming that they were arresting fugitives, but in fact, they were probably not arresting fugitives, but wanted to take advantage of the chaos to kill Gu Changjin.

No wonder the carriage suddenly became calm as soon as Gu Changjin left the carriage. This was because Gu Changjin used himself as a target to lure people away.

He knew from the beginning that the chaos and those people were all directed at him.

Just as he was thinking about it, Shen had already hurried out.

"You go back to Wutong Lane now. Since Yunzhi is injured, you, as his wife, will naturally stay by his side." Mrs. Shen said, and then ordered Aunt Zhou, "Go to my warehouse and put those hundred-year-old weapons Pick out the ginseng and ask the eldest girl to take it back together."

Rong Shu hesitated and didn't respond.

When she came back this time, she planned to stay for three to five days before leaving.

Admittedly, rationally she should go back to the Gu Mansion, but she really couldn't let go of her mother-in-law.

In his previous life, Gu Changjin was still able to escape from that rape with her being such a burden, and even managed to go to the palace to see the emperor after waking up. Without her this time, I think the injuries I suffered would be less severe than in the previous life.

Besides, with Changji and Hengping taking care of him, she really had nothing to do. After returning from Chang'an Avenue in her previous life, she actually didn't help much and could only worry on the side.

Gu Changjin never needed her.

Thinking of this, Rong Shu said in a negotiating tone: "Mom, why don't I go back to Wutong Lane in two days? You are not feeling well today, so I don't worry."

"Nonsense! How can you be willful now? When? I still need you to take care of me." Shen glared at Rong Shu and almost stabbed her on the forehead, "It's a matter of urgency. I don't know how serious Yunzhi's injury is at this moment. You are the first priority. Just go back home. As for Aniang, you can come anytime you want when Yun Zhi is well."

Then he asked someone to prepare the carriage without any explanation, as if there was no room for discussion.

Rong Shu looked at Shen.

After taking a nap for half an hour and taking some soothing medicine, Shen's complexion indeed improved a lot. With Aunt Pei on the other side of the old lady, I think Aunt Pei will be able to live a comfortable life for a while.

"Then I'll come back to see you in a few days. Don't worry too much during this period. If something happens, be sure to send someone to Wutong Lane to tell me. If you don't feel comfortable living here, go to Zhuangzi——"

Rong Shu Halfway through her words, something wrapped in cloth was suddenly stuffed into her arms, cutting off her words.

Mrs. Shen looked at her and said with a smile: "After getting married, I have grown up and I know how to tell my mother. Now, my mother has not gone anywhere these days. She only stayed in Qingheng Courtyard to eat and sleep. Don't worry about it."

Then he patted the small sugar bowl in her arms and said, "This is the pine nut candy that Mom asked the kitchen to make specially for you. You don't have time to eat it now. Take it back to eat. Although you have to do your best to take care of Yunzhi, don't make yourself too tired, okay? Just go back and let me talk to your father and grandmother."

Rong Shu said . Holding a box of pine nut candies, he walked out of the Hou Mansion with three steps at a time.

The carriage drove for almost an hour before returning to Wutong Lane. I thought that Songsiyuan would be very busy at this moment, but unexpectedly it was quiet after entering.

Chang Ji walked out of the kitchen with a medicine bowl in his hand. When he saw Rong Shu and others returning home, a trace of surprise flashed across his face.

"Young... Young Madam?"

Rong Shu nodded to him and said, "How serious is the second master's injury?"

"The master was hit by an arrow and received several stabs. He is unconscious now. The doctor has just arrived. , He said that the fever will probably last for three or four days, and if the fever subsides after three or four days, it will be no big deal."

What the doctor said was the same as in the previous life.

"I'll go in and see the second master."

Chang Ji subconsciously wanted to stop Rong Shu from going in. The master had a bad temper when he was sick, so the young lady would be wronged if she bumped into him.

But then I thought about it, the young lady is the master's wife in name, and he is a long-term attendant. How can he stop the young lady from entering the house to see the master?

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a sudden light in his hand. Yingque took the soup bowl from his hand and said, "Is this the medicine for the second master? Give it to me. Our girl will feed it in person later."

Chang Ji opened his mouth again . Opening his mouth, he wanted to say that the master would not allow anyone to give him medicine, and no one else would be able to give him medicine.

But Yingque had already turned around and quickly followed Rong Shu into the house.

There were no windows in the room, so Rong Shu opened the curtain, and a faint smell of blood immediately lingered on the tip of his nose.

Gu Changjin was lying on the bed with his eyes closed tightly. His shoulders, chest, arms, and neck were all wrapped in white cloth, with blood faintly seeping on the cloth.

These injuries were exactly the same as in the previous life.

Rong Shu remembered that it took Gu Changjin three months to fully recover.

She stared at Gu Changjin's bloodless face, her eyes a little complicated for a moment.

After the chaos on Chang'an Street in his previous life subsided, the blue official robe on his body was already soaked in blood.

But he seemed unaware, and walked slowly towards her in the blood on Chang'an Street under the scorching sun.

At that time, there were injuries all over his body, and there was even blood on his neck. The blood snaked out a thin line in his fair skin, and seeped into his clothes bit by bit.

Rong Shu looked at him through the broken car window.

His dark eyes were extremely deep and calm. It seemed that these injuries, the corpses on the ground, and the chaotic assassination were nothing but trivial matters to him.

But if you look closely, the blazing light shining into his eyes is like a ball of fire.

The fire burned weakly and lasted for a long time.

Later, Yingque said angrily: "When the girl was in danger, my uncle only escaped from the carriage by himself and left the girl there alone. It is really unjustifiable."

Looking back now, he was probably the only one who left the carriage and lured away the assassins. , she can be safe and sound.

"Madam, this is the medicine Chang Ji just cooked." Yingque brought a bowl of medicine over and said to her, "Look, do you want to feed my uncle the medicine now?"

Hengping, who was guarding the bedside, heard Yingque's words. , the usually expressionless face actually showed a hint of surprise.

Rong Shu knew what Hengping was surprised about.

Gu Changjin was extremely defensive. When he was unconscious, he could hardly take any medicine. Even Changji and Hengping, who had been serving him since childhood, occasionally got lucky and were able to open his mouth and pour the medicine in.

Hengping probably didn't expect that Changji would ask her to give him medicine.

In the previous life, Rong Shu also tried feeding medicine, but he couldn't take a single bite. The thick, dark medicine juice overflowed from Gu Changjin's closed teeth and wet the pillow cloth underneath.

She couldn't feed him, and neither did Hengping and Changji.

Later, Gu Changjin woke up on his own, took the bowl and drank the medicine in one gulp.

Rong Shu didn't want to waste this effort, but Yingque had already brought the medicine over, so he had no choice but to take the medicine bowl.

She couldn't feed her anyway, so she just pretended to feed him a spoonful of soup and gave the rest to Hengping.

"Hengping, please lift me up and put me on the pillow."

Hengping's dead face twitched slightly. He glanced at Rong Shu and his servant, and for some reason he remembered Chang Ji's words.

"Young Madam likes you very much, Master." Suddenly she felt a little sympathy for Rong Shu, nodded, and followed Rong Shu's instructions, and even said a rare sentence: "Master is difficult to serve, Young Madam does not have to force

it."

Of course, Shu didn't want to force it. He half-sited on the bedside, lightly stirred the medicine in the mixing bowl, then scooped up a spoonful of soup, put it into Gu Changjin's mouth, and said: "Yingque, prepare the handkerchief." Okay."

As soon as the warm spoon wall touched Gu Changjin's lips, his teeth relaxed, and the spoonful of medicine entered his mouth smoothly.

I just heard a "gulu" sound and the medicine was swallowed.

Rong Shu was stunned.

Hengping was stunned.

Chang Ji, who came in with the second bowl of medicine, was also startled. He lowered his head to look at the freshly fried spare medicine in his hand, then turned around and walked out of the room.
