Shang Shixu was really angry in his heart. He was angry with himself for not being able to protect his wife well, and he was also angry with those who hurt Lin Jingmo. His temper has always been merciless, but what is more important at this moment is... ...Lin Jingmo's injury.

He stretched out his hand and turned Lin Jingmo's face gently, and said, "If you still remember that I am your husband, why should you mind? Lin Jingmo, don't you feel pain?"

Lin Jingmo's face was turned away, but he turned back stubbornly and said: "It hurts so much, I'm going to die of pain! But..."

Shang Shixu gently peeled off her coat from behind her, with a distressed expression on his face, he said softly, "What else? Be obedient and turn around."

Lin Jingmo could see the tenderness in his eyes, and for some reason, there was a trace of guilt in his heart, so he turned his head obediently and lay down on the bed.

The inner layer of silk jacket was untied, revealing the clean and flawless skin on the back, in stark contrast to the several bloodstains from whipping.

Shang Shixu looked at the cracked scars on Lin Jingmo's back, and because he was angry, his big hands began to tremble uncontrollably. He didn't dare to touch it with his hands, so he took the silk from the medicine bottle and lightly dipped it in the powder to help her Wipe the bruises.

Shang Shixu's fingertips swept over Lin Jingmo's scar through the silk cloth, and the cold touch of the wound medicine instantly replaced the burning pain just now. Realizing that he was naked at the moment, Lin Jingmo shrugged his head in embarrassment. Buried in the pillow, the dry buckwheat smell in the pillow reminded Lin Jingmo of Shang Shixu again, she turned her head slightly and took a subconscious glance at Shang Shixu.

Lin Jingmo thought that Shang Shixu's eyes had been focusing on her scars, so he started staring at his face openly, but he suddenly asked at this moment: "What are you looking at?"

Lin Jingmo was so frightened by him that he hurriedly turned his head away, pouted angrily, she didn't know what Shang Shixu was angry about again.

Because she didn't know that Shang Shixu had never been afraid of anything in his life. He could lose everything for some purpose. At that moment just now, timidity was evident in his cold black eyes. He didn't want anyone People know his secrets and see through his ordinaryness, even Lin Jingmo doesn't want to.

After applying the medicine for Lin Jingmo, Shang Shixu's eyes trembled slightly. He looked at Lin Jingmo, but was taken aback.

Lin Jingmo's face turned red because of embarrassment, Shang Shixu shook his head helplessly, and reached out to cover her with the clean underwear he had just taken out: "Doesn't it hurt?"

Lin Jingmo replied, "It hurts."

Shang Shixu lowered his eyelids, unable to see clearly what he was thinking: "If it were someone else, it would hurt to death, madam still have time to be shy?"

Lin Jingmo pulled the underwear that was still on his body and said for some reason: "It hurts so much, and being shy is also really embarrassing. Who told you not to allow Mama Li to come in!"

Suddenly remembered something, Lin Jingmo turned his head to look at Shang Shixu again, met his eyes inadvertently, then quickly looked away and said, "A girl fell from a building on the street this morning. I don't know how she was injured. I look like this. It seems that I won't be able to get up for a few days, how about asking my husband to go to Jingzhao Mansion to inquire?"

Shang Shixu raised his eyes coldly: "I can't even take care of my own affairs, why bother with so much?"

Lin Jingmo said, "I saw her fall down the stairs with my own eyes this morning to make sure that she is okay. How can I say it's not my fault?"

"You will be arrested and sent to the prison because of this?" Shang Shixu said angrily, "What are you doing on the street after getting up so early, and hurt yourself all over!"

Lin Jingmo murmured unconvinced: "Isn't it because I got up early and found that I was sleeping next to you..."

"What are you talking about?" Shang Shixu pretended not to hear clearly and asked again.

"Nothing." Lin Jingmo replied angrily, suddenly recalling what he had seen and heard in prison, and asked again: "Does my husband know the Minister of the Ministry of War?"

Shang Shixu's eyes flickered, and he asked without answering for a while, "Does it still hurt?"

Lin Jingmo was a little at a loss when he was asked, and his mind was full of thoughts: Why is he so concerned with my injury?

She couldn't help smiling, and replied softly: "My husband's medicine is very effective, and now the wound feels cold, and it's much better."

"Then take a good rest and don't think about it too much." After finishing speaking, Shang Shixu resealed the medicine bottle with silk, took out another pill from the other medicine bottle, fed it into Lin Jingmo's mouth, and took it again The water asked Lin Jingmo to take the pills.

Lin Jingmo swallowed obediently, and Shang Shixu couldn't help asking: "Do you know what you are eating? Just swallow it?"

Hearing this, Lin Jingmo opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, smiled mischievously, and said, "Well, I swallowed it."

Shang Shixu raised his hand to hold her chin: "Aren't you afraid it's poison?"

Lin Jingmo stared at his big watery eyes, sincerely feeling that Shang Shixu's question was unbelievable: "I'm not stupid, you are my husband, how could you feed me poison?"

Shang Shixu bent down and slowly approached Lin Jingmo's face, she could even see the fluff on his face clearly, the two stared at each other for a long time, Lin Jingmo swallowed nervously, and subconsciously looked at his lips ...

"Fool, what are you thinking?" Shang Shixu let go of her chin and straightened up.

Lin Jingmo frowned slightly, pursed his lips and said, "What can you think about?"

Shang Shixu sat on the edge of the bed and patted her head lightly, covering her eyes with his palms, and Lin Jingmo's eyes suddenly went dark.

I only heard Shang Shixu say, "I'm afraid you won't be able to fall asleep because of the pain. That pill just now is a sleep aid. Go to sleep."

……

Lin Jingmo lay on the bed for three days, the wound was medicated, and the scars slowly formed, and he felt that his life was uneventful.Only Mama Li took care of her every day, but Shang Shixu didn't come back.

Sometimes she wondered, maybe it was because she occupied the magpie's nest and Shang Shixu hated her, so she never came back?

Every time I think of this, I can't help but feel a little disappointed, and I will secretly retort in my heart: Who asked him to carry me to the side courtyard where he lives!It's not what I asked for!

But every time he recalled how Shang Shixu found her that day, held her in his arms, her warm and intimate look, he couldn't help but feel the deer bumping in his heart, flustered, and his face was hot.

What she didn't know was that Shang Shixu acted swiftly and resolutely. In the past three days, he searched the roster of the Jingzhao Mansion and the detailed records of the household department. Those jailers who had seen Lin Jingmo being beaten but did not stop them were also implicated one after another, and all were sent to prison in just three days.

It's just that he didn't follow Lin Jingmo's advice to take care of the poor woman who fell from the building, and he didn't bother Zhang Shangshu and his eldest son.

After all, the Son of Heaven will soon send people to the northern border, and it is definitely not the best policy to offend Zhang Yiqian at this moment.
