The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 19: No matter what happens, go to the Three Treasures Palace

He stood beside the bed without saying anything. Lin Mowan only faced him with her side profile. Her red eyes made her already fair cheeks look even paler, as if she had just cried.

That’s right, with such a deep wound and so much blood, how could I not cry? Just looking at it, Shen Weiyuan felt a pang of pain in his heart, and the cold eyes couldn’t help but soften a little.

Lin Mowan said: "Second Master, you'd better not look at it. It's scary and must be very ugly..." Before she finished her words, her emotions that had just calmed down seemed to collapse again, and she sobbed softly with great restraint.

Shen Weiyuan looked at her and finally couldn't bear it. He sat beside the bed, holding her hand, thinking for a moment, and said in a serious tone: "Don't think too much, I will definitely ask the best doctor to heal your injury."

Lin Mowan looked at him, her misty eyes filled with gratitude and grievance, like a child who was bullied outside and suddenly found his backbone.

Obviously, Shen Weiyuan enjoyed this trick very much. He looked at her, his brows furrowed even deeper, and raised his hand awkwardly to gently wipe away the tears from her face.

Lin Mowan sniffed, and her tears wet her eyelashes, making her look even more pitiful. Shen Weiyuan unconsciously held her hand tightly. She knew that Shen Weiyuan would not sit idly by.

Perhaps there are countless beauties in this world, and the people of the Jiang family don’t care about her face, even Lin Mowan herself may not care, but there will always be people who care, after all, she is the one who is rumored to look 70% like his deceased beauty.

Even if this was not the reason, how could a person of Shen Weiyuan's position of power watch his own people being bullied by others? Wouldn't that mean he was tacitly allowing others to slap him in the face?

When the Jiang family rushed to Feiqing Courtyard, Shen Weiyuan had been sitting in the hall drinking tea for a long time. Lin Mowan was lying on the bed in the inner room, being served by Yuzhi. Her bloody clothes that had just been changed were placed beside her, and the room was still a little messy.

The old lady was supported by Jiang Wenqing, leaning on a cane, and her face was not very good, the kind of sickly bad, but she still smiled: "Second Master, I am sorry for not welcoming you in person. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person."

Shen Weiyuan didn't say anything. He just sat there with his eyes downcast, drinking tea. His expression showed no emotion. Even after the two of them entered the hall, he didn't put down the cup in his hand.

Shen Weiyuan only raised his eyes and scanned the crowd. Only Jiang Wenqing and the old lady came. Finally, he put the tea bowl in his hand on the table and said politely, "No need to be so polite. Sit down and talk."

The old lady smiled and was helped to sit aside. Gongshu Tingyue and Jiang Wenqing also looked unhappy. They sat down one by one. Before they could speak, Shen Weiyuan asked, "Where is Jiang Youxi?"

His voice was very soft, like the tone of a casual chat, not a tone of accountability. But the people of the Jiang family were so shrewd that they naturally understood the meaning of "no one would come to your temple without a request".

The old lady quickly explained, "Second Master, he is sick, and his son can't get out of bed. He was going to come and talk to you when he heard you were coming, but I stopped him. If he passed his illness on to you, it would be a real sin."

Shen Weiyuan listened without showing any discomfort on his face. He waited until she finished talking before he spoke slowly, "Really? Wasn't he slashing people with a knife this morning? How come he got sick while eating?"

This excuse obviously couldn't fool Shen Weiyuan. Seeing that something was wrong, Jiang Wenqing hurriedly tried to make up for it: "Actually...it's not a serious illness. I just caught a cold."

"Then please come out." Shen Weiyuan almost didn't give him the chance to say anything else. The mother and son looked at each other, and they immediately panicked, but had to pretend to be calm.

Knowing that she couldn't escape this time, the old lady sighed helplessly and signaled Jiang Wenqing with her eyes. Jiang Wenqing had no choice but to compromise and immediately sent someone to find Jiang Youxi. Shen Weiyuan didn't say anything, but turned his eyes slightly and gave a look to the guard beside him. Wei Lin, as someone who had been with Shen Weiyuan since childhood, only needed a look, and he immediately understood and quickly followed the servant who went out.

During this gap, both mother and son were on pins and needles, but Shen Weiyuan was very calm, still looking so cold and aloof that he didn't care about worldly matters.

It was the old lady who broke the silence first: "I wonder how is Sister Wan's injury? Is it serious?"

This was the first time I heard the old lady call her Sister Wan. It was obvious that she was trying very hard to show that the Jiang family had not treated Lin Mowan unfairly.

Shen Weiyuan didn't say anything. Doctor He on the side stole a glance at Shen Weiyuan who was drinking tea calmly. Seeing that he had no intention of stopping her, he took the initiative to say, "Miss Lin's injury should not be underestimated. It's on her face and the wound is not shallow. Fortunately, the bleeding has stopped, but even with the best medicine, it will probably take half a year to heal."

Upon hearing this, the old lady's heart sank to the bottom. It was not because she was worried about Lin Mowan. If Shen Weiyuan had not come to their house today, they would not have planned to treat Lin Mowan. But now it is different. Shen Weiyuan obviously cares a lot.

As soon as Doctor He finished speaking, the old lady quickly responded, "Then you have to treat it well. A girl's appearance is the most important thing. Use the best medicine. If her face is disfigured, how will our sister Wan live in the future?"

These words were spoken sincerely and with concern, like an elder who was really worried about Lin Mowan, but how could Doctor He not know? From the time Lin Mowan returned to Feiqing Courtyard to before Shen Weiyuan came, no one came to take a look at her.

Listening to the old lady's words, Doctor He nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, old lady, the second master has explained all these."

Upon hearing this, the mother and son were immediately nervous again. Almost at the same time, they cautiously turned their heads to look at Shen Weiyuan, who was still calmly drinking tea. He didn't seem to want to ask anything else, so the two of them could only smile awkwardly and stopped talking.

Not long after, Jiang Youxi was led into the hall by Wei Lin. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, he knelt down with a plop after walking a few steps. He was no longer crazy. He raised his hand and began to slap himself, muttering, "It's all my fault. It's my fault. I hurt Sister Wan by mistake."

Shen Weiyuan raised his eyes calmly and put down the tea bowl in his hand again. His cold eyes looked no different from before, until Jiang Youxi knelt down and crawled to Shen Weiyuan's feet: "Second Brother Shen, I, I really didn't mean it. I was so angry at the time that I accidentally hurt Sister Wan. I... I..."

As he spoke, his tone paused, and his black eyes quickly turned a few times, as if he had made some kind of decision. He suddenly grabbed Shen Weiyuan's clothes: "Since everything has happened, if Sister Wan is really disfigured, I am willing to marry her, Second Brother Shen, I will treat her well, I will definitely..."

This man is a bit ridiculous. You can say he is stupid, but he knows that Shen Weiyuan came to his door in person without stopping, which means that this matter will not be easily let go, so the first thing he did when he entered the door was to kneel down and beg for mercy.

But if you say he is smart, he just took advantage of the situation and still acted like a good boy. He knew clearly that Shen Weiyuan was not as indifferent to Lin Mowan as he seemed on the surface. He had just become a eunuch, but he still said with a flattering face that he was willing to marry her, as if marrying someone like him was a great blessing, which really made Shen Weiyuan laugh.

Shen Weiyuan murmured, "How shameless."

Jiang Youxi paused, and before he could react, Shen Weiyuan kicked him in the chest, and Jiang Youxi flew several meters away in an instant. Shen Weiyuan's face turned dark for a rare time, and he watched Jiang Youxi fall heavily to the ground, covering his chest with difficulty, and choking on his mouthful of blood with a painful look on his face.

The old lady was frightened and stood up suddenly from her seat. Jiang Wenqing was relatively calm, but he still tensed his body instantly and held on to the guard tightly to avoid losing his composure.
