Houmen maidservant, she doesn't want to be in power

Chapter 73 Cross the river and demolish the bridge
Xu Shi rested at noon during the day, and the second master was not sleepy.After sending the bearded man away, he only took the "Lunheng" and opened it to read.

It's time for dinner, the darkness is getting thicker and the chill is getting more and more, Qingfengyuan is also getting deserted a little bit.

Shi Jin Xiaoxiao yawned and stood aside.

Although the movements were subtle, the second master finally looked at her face, "But are you sleepy?"

Shi Jin's body froze immediately, and he spoke faster than his brain, "The servant is not sleepy, not sleepy at all."

But the second master just threw the book on the small table, "Put it down."

When Shi Jin got the order, he hurriedly waited for Second Master to wash up, spread the bed again, and then waited for Second Master to sit by the bed.

She hung up Second Master's coat, pondered for a while, and said to him cautiously, "Second Master, this servant is well now, let's go to sleep tonight."

As soon as the words were finished, Second Master's cool gaze came over like a knife.Facing Second Master's scalp-numbing gaze, with a stiff smile on his lips, Shi Jin looked up at him, refusing to show weakness.

After a while, he snorted lightly, "Cross the river and tear down the bridge."

Shi Jin just didn't understand, when she saw the second master lying on the bed in a plain white coat, she hurriedly spread the footrests and lay down on the bed.

Accustomed to sleeping in a comfortable and soft big bed, the compact, short and hard footrests instantly became hideous.

Shi Jin only felt some dense tingling pains in his waist, so he quietly put his hands on his waist and kneaded it gently.

However, after all, the injury was on the back of the waist, she was powerless, and she always felt that the kneading was like scratching the boots, and it didn't reach the point.

Just as he turned over, the next moment, the second master's palm was pulled down, and Shi Jin fell on the bed again.

She was startled, and was about to get up, but was too scared to move by the second master's words, "Don't move, or, do you want to help me heal my illness?"

Thinking of the previous two "cures", Shi Jin wished he could put his head into the brocade quilt and never come out again.

The light in the curtain was dim, Er Ye couldn't see Shi Jin's face, but he could guess that her face was burning.Immediately, his mood became clearer, he just wrapped his arms around her waist, and pushed her into his arms.

Shi Jin's body froze immediately, and when he realized that there was a severe pain behind him, his voice turned into tears, "Second Master..."

However, the trembling and crying sound was like a hook that seemed to be there, and the tip of the second master's heart trembled accordingly.

Immediately, he moved down the bony hand on his waist, and patted her buttocks like a ghost.

This time, not only Shi Jin was so frightened that he stopped his voice, but Second Master also froze.

There was a dead silence inside the bed tent.

After a while, the second master got up expressionlessly, went around behind the high and low screen of gold silk embroidered asparagus bamboo with bare feet, and washed his hands in cold water in the wide edge copper basin.

The faint smell of blood from the fingertips instantly melted into the water, the second master lowered his eyes, looked at the wet palms, and for some reason, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

He turned out of the screen and walked to the side of Ba Bu's bed, seeing Shi Jin's figure kneeling in a ball at the foot of the bed in the darkness, the corners of his lips were pursed into a straight line, he stopped his feet, and looked down at her with a pale complexion.

Shi Jin's heart trembled, and he buried his head deeper, "I just wanted to tell the second master just now, it's just, just..."

It's not appropriate to say anything about this kind of thing.

Second Master's eyes were flat, and he couldn't see any emotion, and his voice was also flat, without any ups and downs, "So, it's Grandpa's fault?"

Shi Jin didn't dare.

She was apprehensive about this matter.All the way, men feel that women's bloody smell is filthy, and it is not good to touch it.However, this matter was not what she wanted, and Shi Jin felt aggrieved and uneasy.

Therefore, the second master's questioning and silence are even more difficult to endure.

For a moment, she thought of Yazi, the man who bought and sold maids in the daytime, and her heart became a little bit gloomy.

In the midst of his thoughts, Shi Jin felt a strong force pulling him up.

The second master bent down, picked her up from the ground, and then stepped on the pedal.

After Shi Jin was frightened, he didn't dare to say much, but obediently hugged his neck, lowered his head, and didn't say a word.

Unlike the usual rudeness of pulling her directly onto the bed from the pedals, Second Master's actions at this time can be called gentle.

He gently and deftly placed Shi Jin on the bed, then grabbed the side of Jin's quilt to wrap her tightly, and then lay down on one side, as upright and serious as ever.

Shi Jin's nose was covered in the brocade quilt, only a pair of black and white eyes were exposed, looking at the vague outline of the second master's jaw in the darkness, his voice was murmuring in the brocade quilt, which was not very real, "Second master... will dirty the bedding..."

Qi Mojing frowned impatiently, and his eyebrows almost twisted into a plain word, as if this matter was more confusing than the prison trial, "Then just throw it away."

She shivered and dared not speak any more.
.
Some people are happy that someone is worried.

If it is said that Shi Jin is complacent about not being sold out, then Dali Temple Minister Shen Liang can be regarded as sleepless all night.

Shen Liang is about the same age, probably because of years of trial in prison, his upright face has a bit of harshness, just looking at people, it seems to be coercive, it is very awe-inspiring.

At this time, listening to the news reported by his subordinates, he was even more disturbed.

However, he didn't show it on his face, he just asked in a cool voice, "Then Chen Dong, is he really seriously injured?"

"My lord, my subordinates dare not say anything. Because of Chen Dong's serious injury, Concubine Chen specially told His Majesty to let Chen Dong stay overnight in the imperial hospital. Because of the concubine's favor, His Majesty actually agreed. There is currently no news inside or outside the palace walls. , it is very unfavorable for Second Young Master."

Shen Liang's eyebrows immediately became deeper, "Forget it, I will report to His Majesty tomorrow, and this matter should be handed over to Dali Temple for trial."

Even so, he felt uneasy in his heart.Not to mention whether Concubine Chen is willing to let Chen Dong come out to confront her, she is protecting Chen Dong now because she intends to give the Shen family a bad blow.

Just as he was hesitating, the other hand came down to report that someone could help solve Lingdi's matter.

Shen Liang's eyes darkened upon hearing this.Although it was related to his younger brother, he straightened his clothes and went to the study.

Shen Liang only looked at the person coming after the erratic candlelight of the red round belly gauze lantern was placed on the desk with flying horns and flat head and wide edge in the study.

The man's beard and eyebrows were half white, he was wearing a blue shirt, and he was thin, and he was standing in the middle of the study with his hands in his hands.

Seeing Shen Liang enter the study, a gleam flashed in his eyes, he nodded and said with a smile, "I heard that Mr. Shen likes to read books for fun, and he really lives up to his reputation!"

Shen Liang didn't have a deep impression of the person in front of him, but he used to hear that there was an old man in green shirt beside the prince, who was similar to the person in front of him, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "Your Excellency is Mr. Li Jiehai next to the prince?"

The old man stroked his beard with his hands, and his face showed joy, "That's right, this is Li Jiehai, Mr. Shen has good eyesight!"

At the moment, he stopped beating around the bush, and only took out a piece of ocher jade pendant carved with a red dragon and a pan column, a pagoda, and handed it to Shen Liang, "Mr. To solve problems for Mr. Shen..."
