Chapter 103 Lu Xinyan's Secret Weapon

Chapter 103 Lu Xinyan's Secret Weapon
Before Lu Xinyan could speak, Gu Shi had already washed up and hurried in. Her hair was still dripping, and she casually draped it behind her.

In the face of his son's life, what is his manners? !

Seeing Bai Zhi, Gu's eyes were full of expectations, she took two steps forward, trying to grab Bai Zhi's hands, but Bai Zhi quickly avoided, "Second Madam, I am very dirty now, if you want to go in and see the sixth young master , please stay away from me."

Gu Shi quickly stopped, her hands stopped in the air, and she spoke incoherently, "Jie'er...Jie'er...wake up? I can...Can I go in and see him?"

Bai Zhi said: "Second Madam, the Sixth Young Master is not awake yet, he is only temporarily out of danger, you can go in and take a look, but you are not allowed to touch, touch, or stay for too long."

Gu's tears fell down, happy and worried, eager to say: "I know, Miss Bai Zhi, thank you, Miss Bai Zhi, then I now..."

She looked at the door of Gong Jie's room, and Bai Zhi nodded.

Gu Shi, who had been looking forward to seeing Gong Jie for a long time, suddenly felt timid at this moment, fearing the situation inside, which was simply unacceptable to her.

Lu Xinyan didn't urge her, and said to Qingtong Baizhi: "Qingtong, you go and call Uncle Tian, ​​Bai Zhi, after Qingtong comes back, you go back with her to freshen up and have a rest. Uncle Tian and I will stay here first. You have to work hard."

The two didn't understand why they called Uncle Tian here, and why they asked Qingtong to accompany Bai Zhi, but they knew that this was not the time to ask, "I'll go right away." Qingtong left after speaking.

At this time, Mrs. Gu finally summoned up her courage and tremblingly walked towards the room where Gong Jie was.

The door was gently opened and then closed again, as softly as if it had never been opened.

After a while, Gu's suppressed crying came from inside.

He suffered more than [-] stab wounds all over his body, lost a lot of blood, and was drenched by the rain.

Lu Xinyan didn't need to see, she could imagine Gong Jie's whole body wrapped in rice dumplings, all blood lost, and because of the pain, even in a coma, there was an expression of pain on his face.

That person is really cruel!
Gong Jie is just a 12-year-old child, not tall, thin, shy and shy, with a low voice, and when she sees her occasionally, her ears are always red.

As long as that person is from the Hou's mansion, Gong Jie can be regarded as the person who grew up watching him!

How could he be able to deal with such a cruel hand like this!How narrow and dark is that person's heart? !

After a while, Uncle Tian came, after Qing Tong and Bai Zhi left, Gong Mei came, and at the same time, Gong Mu came with a doctor-like person.

Gu Shi has already come out from inside, her face is full of tears, her lip has been bitten, and blood oozes.

It seems that he bit him in order not to disturb Gong Jie by crying out loud.

Gong Mu was still wearing the original clothes, it seemed that he had just left, not to wash up, but to wait for the doctor.

The doctor looked clean, but because it was raining outside, there was a lot of mud on the shoes and the feet of the robe.

"Doctor Liu, please." Gong Mu led Doctor Liu towards Gong Jie's door, but was stopped by Uncle Tian who was standing at the door.

"Get out of the way!" Gong Mu's face sank, and he shouted: "This is my second room, I am the master here, get out of the way!"

"Second Cousin, if you and Doctor Liu want to go in, please wash up first!" A soft female voice came from behind.

"Zhu Zhu, although you are the eldest wife's wife, don't go too far, this is my second wife's business!" Gong Mu turned cold, "The one lying inside is my only son, how can I save him? Have your own opinion, don't need outsiders to worry about it!"

"Master!" Gu couldn't help crying: "Zhuzhu is for Jie'er's good, you don't want to..."

"A woman's opinion!" Gong Mu snorted coldly, and said to Uncle Tian: "Get out of the way!"

Without Lu Xinyan's order, Uncle Tian naturally remained motionless.

Although Gong Mu is not the person who talks about the affairs of the Hou Mansion, he is still a master after all, and now he is humiliated by a servant, and his face is flushed with anger.

Dr. Liu came here in the rain, but he was very upset when he was treated like this, "Since there are people in the mansion who are blocking me, Master Gong Er, I will take my leave first."

"Doctor Liu!" Gong Mu gave Lu Xinyan and Uncle Tian a hard look, and chased after Doctor Liu, "Doctor Liu, please wait, my son is seriously injured, and I am waiting for your help!..."

Doctor Liu was just showing off, but Gong Mu immediately stopped after chasing him out.

"Zhuzhu, let your people get out of the way, or don't blame me for being rude!" Gong Mu said viciously.

Gu Shi and Gong Mei hugged each other in fear, Gong Mu usually has nothing to do, but he just wants to save face, and is easy to get into trouble when things happen.

In her own home, Gu's gentle temperament passed.

But now at the critical moment, Lu Xinyan is a person who sticks to his guns. In this matter, both Gu and Gong Mei don't know what to do!
"Do as Zhuzhu said! Either wash up and go in, or wait outside!" Feng's majestic voice came from outside the door.

At this time, it would be best for the Feng family to come forward to calm down the situation, Lu Xinyan heaved a sigh of relief, she didn't want to confront a pedantic father who worried about his son.

As soon as Feng Shi made a sound, Gong Mu didn't dare to insist any longer, and obediently ran to wash up.

Lu Xinyan stepped forward, "Grandma, why are you here? You are not in good health, you should rest more."

"Something happened to Jie'er, how can grandma rest assured?" Feng said, "Grandma just washed up, so let's take a look at Jie'er first."

Feng Shi went in quickly, and came out again quickly.

When he came out, his eyes were wet, and he said angrily, "Who the hell is this? How could he be so cruel? Jie'er is just a child, even if he accidentally said something wrong, he shouldn't have treated him like this!"

After carefully looking at the expression on Feng's face, Lu Xinyan stepped forward to support her who was trembling with anger, "Grandmother, why don't you report this matter to the government, let the government investigate."

"Zhuzhu is right!" Feng said, "Aying, get someone to report to the officials immediately! Although my Guangping Marquis Mansion is not getting better every day, I can't let people bully me like this!"

"Yes, old lady." Nanny Sun responded and left.

"Thanks to Bai Zhi girl again this time." Feng Shi patted Lu Xinyan's hand, and said with gratitude in his tone, "If she wasn't there, something big would happen this time!"

Lu Xinyan's heart moved when she heard this.

The people behind the scenes didn't do anything to Bai Zhi, was it because of her medical skills?Because in this mansion...someone needs her? !
Thinking of this, the way she looked at Feng Shi couldn't help but change by two points.

Feng said: "After Jie'er recovers, grandma must reward Bai Zhi heavily."

"Thank you grandma, Bai Zhi, the ancestor of Zhuzhu." Lu Xinyan smiled.

Feng sighed, "Too many things have happened these days, and I don't know if I committed some taboo. It seems that I have to find a time to go to Qingyan Temple to offer incense sticks!"

"Grandmother, your body..." Lu Xinyan said worriedly that she couldn't bear such a tiring ride.

"Grandmother has gotten better recently, and with Bai Zhi here, grandma can bear it, but you," Feng looked at Lu Xinyan lovingly, "Looking at you, you probably haven't rested for the past two days. Come here and worry about it, it’s hard work for you, you go back and rest, the grandmother here will take care of it first.”

Lu Xinyan really couldn't hold it anymore, and she didn't refuse, "Then Zhuzhu will go back first, and Baizhi and Qingtong will come over later."

Before leaving, she said to Gu Shi: "Second cousin, I know you don't want to rest, but now the sixth brother needs your care, you must take care of yourself first."

At the end, she said meaningfully: "Recently, the mansion is not very peaceful. Maybe it is just like what my grandmother said, I accidentally violated the taboo. If the second cousin and fourth sister have nothing important to do, they should stay in the mansion and avoid going out."

Gu didn't know what she meant, but Bai Zhi saved Gong Jie, she worshiped her words like a god, and hurriedly nodded in agreement.

After Bai Zhiqingtong came over in the evening, the Feng family went back to Fushouyuan.

The two of them explained to Uncle Tian that they realized why Lu Xinyan called Uncle Tian here earlier, and they couldn't help feeling that she had thought deeply and thoughtfully!
In the Fushouyuan, Aunt Feng came over with a set of clothes with fine workmanship and stitches, "Old Madam, I have finished the two sets of clothes for Master Hou."

Feng touched the feel of the hand, then looked at the stitches carefully, and praised: "Aunt Feng's craftsmanship is really good."

"Thank you, old lady, for your compliment." Aunt Feng thanked her calmly, with a look of concern on her usual indifferent face, "I heard that something happened to the sixth young master, how is your health now?"

Feng sighed: "According to that girl Bai Zhi, after these two days, you'll be fine if you wake up, but you can't..."

Aunt Feng hurriedly said: "Bodhisattva bless him! This concubine has been offering incense to the Sixth Young Master in the Buddhist hall these few days, and begged the Bodhisattva to bless him through this calamity!"

Feng said: "Aunt Feng, you have a heart, I will also go to offer incense tomorrow."

"Old Madam, it is inconvenient for me to see the Sixth Young Master as a concubine. I want to use brocade as an underclothes to give to the Sixth Young Master as a token of my affection."

"Using brocade as an inner garment?" Feng was stunned, then nodded, "Aunt Feng is very thoughtful, Jie'er is covered with injuries, a light and comfortable inner garment can relieve the pain caused by friction, then you can do it Two bodies."

Aunt Feng said: "Yes, old lady, I will drive out as soon as possible."

"Don't tire yourself out too much."

"Thank you, old lady, for your compassion, I know it myself."

-

Early the next morning, the yamen sent people to check the general situation, and said that they would come to ask questions after Gong Jie woke up, and said that they would fully cooperate in arresting the murderer.

Lu Xinyan knew that she was just going through the motions and talking about scenes, and she knew in her heart that the possibility of catching the murderer was very slim.

She took Xiaohe to Shilinyuan, and asked Bai Zhiqingtong, who had been guarding all night, to rest next door.

In order to reduce the time spent traveling, Lu Xinyan asked Gu to clean up the rooms around Gong Jie for the night watchmen to rest.

It was not Lu Xinyan's turn to say anything about the matter of the second room.

But with Gong Jie's injury, Gu's Gong Mei had no master, and Gong Mu was pedantic and unclear, and the whole second room lost its backbone and became a mess.

In order to prevent any accidents these days, Lu Xinyan took the initiative to take care of everything regardless of Gong Mu's displeased expression.

Feng Shi ordered her to go down early in the morning, before Gong Jie woke up, try not to disturb her for the next two days, but all the houses came one after another to show their affection.

Lu Xinyan didn't let people in, and asked Xiao He to help accept the gift, and then sent people away.

When she turned around and wanted to go in to have a look at Gong Jie, she found that the door that was supposed to be closed was now ajar.

Startled, she signaled Xiao He to keep quiet, held her breath and gently pushed the door open.

I saw a small pink figure, lying in front of Gong Jie's bed, shivering, not knowing what it was doing.

Lu Xinyan approached slowly, "Sister Seven, what are you doing here?"

The little figure Gong Qian was frightened, and with an ah, she quickly covered her mouth again, blushing quickly as if she had been caught doing something wrong, "Sister-in-law, Qian'er came here after washing, Qian'er is afraid of Sixth Brother It hurts, I'm helping Brother Six, Qian'er will leave immediately."

The little girl's long eyelashes were like a fan, and her eyes were jet-black, with a look of shyness and fear of reproach.

Lu Xinyan pursed her lips and smiled, "Come on, sister-in-law will take you out so that sixth brother can have a good rest."

Gong Qian carefully put her hand into Lu Xinyan's, "Sister-in-law, don't you blame Qian'er?"

"Seventh sister loves sixth brother so much, how can sister-in-law blame you for not having time to rejoice?"

"But they said..." After the little girl said a few words, she shut her mouth tightly, it seemed that her words were not good.

Lu Xinyan guessed that someone was saying behind her back that she was overbearing, meddling in her own business and blocking Gong Jie's door to prevent others from visiting her.

"Seventh Sister wants to see Sixth Brother. She can come every day after washing up, but she can't stay for too long, you know?"

"Really?" Gong Qian nodded excitedly, "Qian'er knows."

After walking out the door, Lu Xinyan said: "Xiao He, send Miss Seven back."

When Xiaohe was in Zhuangzi, everyone her age was a kid, but in the pomegranate yard, she was the youngest, and everyone doted on her as her little child.

Now seeing Gong Qian, who is even smaller and cuter than her, her eyes light up.

"Miss Seven, I'll take you home." Xiao He took the initiative to hold Gong Qian's hand.

No young maid had ever held her hand before, Gong Qian froze for a moment, and soon said with a sweet smile: "Thank you, sister Xiaohe."

Cute and polite, Xiao He fell in love with her instantly.

-

In Gong Mei's Meiyuan, Gong Rou was softly comforting the crying Gong Mei, "Fourth sister, sixth brother will wake up soon, don't be sad."

"Third sister, if something happens to sixth brother, what will I do in the future?" Gong Mei sobbed.

In this era, after a woman gets married, without the support of her natal brothers, she is easily bullied by her in-laws.

Although there are still Miyata Yu and Gong Jian in the Gong family, but they are always separated from each other, where can they kiss each other?
On the one hand, Gong Mei is worried about Gong Jie, and on the other hand, she is worried about her own future. Whenever she thinks about it, she feels sad.

"No, the sixth younger brother Jiren has his own aura, and he will wake up in two days."

"But Bai Zhi said that if he doesn't wake up tomorrow night, the sixth brother will be in danger." Gong Mei burst into tears.

Gong Judao: "I heard that the Bodhisattva in the Confucius Temple is very spiritual. If the fourth sister can bear it, but she is really worried, why not go to the Confucius Temple tomorrow to fast for a day and pray for the sixth brother."

"Really?" Gong Mei looked like a drowning man grabbing straws, she had already forgotten Lu Xinyan's advice, "I'll go tomorrow."

"The fourth younger sister, you should prepare first. I'll go and see the sixth brother."

"Thank you, Third Sister." Gong Mei said gratefully.

-

It was almost lunch time, Qingtong and Baizhi had already woken up, but Xiaohe was still missing.

"Where's Xiaohe?" Qingtong asked.

Lu Xinyan shook her head helplessly, "I asked her to take Seventh Sister back, it seems that this girl must have gone crazy with Seventh Sister."

"I'll call her back." Qingtong was about to leave when a little light yellow figure bounced back.

Sure enough, he was sweating profusely and his cheeks were flushed, "Miss, Miss! Guess where I just went?"

"Didn't you go to Seventh Sister's courtyard?" Lu Xinyan sensitively caught the loophole in her words.

"No!" Xiao He shook her head like a rattle, "Miss Seven and I went to Miss Er's place."

Gong Yu?Lu Xinyan asked calmly, "What fun is there for Second Miss?"

"Miss, you are so smart!" Xiao He said happily, "Miss Seven and I have not walked very far, when we met Miss Second, the new sister Panxia next to her was holding a cage with two little rabbits in it. It's so cute! The second lady said that she bought it for the sixth young master to relieve his boredom when the sixth young master recovered from his injury. Seeing that the seventh young lady and I both liked it, she asked us to play with the two little rabbits in her yard. We can go and play if we like. Miss, may I go?"

Her eyes were watery with desire.

"If you like it, I'll ask Uncle Tian to buy you a pair."

"Really? Really?" Xiao He hurriedly asked.

"When did miss lie to you?"

"Great, thank you miss!" Xiao He shouted excitedly.

"It's time to go back to eat."

Gong Yu would actually buy a rabbit as a gift, she is not such a caring person!
Although Gong Jie is only twelve, he is a boy after all, would he like such furry things?

Lu Xinyan looked at Xiao He who was full of excitement, and thought that Gong Yu was probably a drunkard who didn't care about drinking, so she didn't know what her intentions were!
In the afternoon, Uncle Tian sent a pair of things that were said to be called shoes, which seemed very strange to Shu Yunxueyue.

Made of black cowhide, with a pointed front and a heel that is half the length of a palm but only one finger thick.

"These are called high heels." Lu Xinyan said.

That's right, what is in the hands of combing the clouds and moons now is the necessary weapon for modern women: high heels.

How can a catwalk be without it?

A few days ago, Lu Xinyan asked Lueyue to hand over to Uncle Tian the blueprint of the high heels.

The samples were made in less than a few days, which was a good efficiency, but I didn't know how it would look when I put it on.

Lu Xinyan rolled her eyes and smiled maliciously, "Luoyue, come and try."

"Me?" Lueyue was a little at a loss, Mr. Tian is still here, why did she take off her shoes and try?How rude.

"Uncle Tian won't read." Lu Xinyan blinked at him, "Right, Uncle Tian?"

Uncle Tian coughed, "Let me avoid it first."

"No, it's still unknown whether these shoes will work well. Uncle Tian, ​​you have to be present to listen to our opinions, so that you can communicate with the people in the blacksmith shop."

That's right, the shoes were not made in a shoe shop, but in a blacksmith's.

Uncle Tian had no choice but to turn around.

Yue Yue took off her embroidered shoes with a blushing face, and put on high heels.

Lu Xinyan made it according to the size of her own foot, which is a size 37. Yueyue's foot is on the smaller side, about a size 36, which is a little loose.

"Luoyue, stand up and take a few steps." Lu Xinyan said, then turned to Uncle Tian and said, "Uncle Tian, ​​you can turn around now."

Lueyue stood up tremblingly, the sudden height made her tremble with fear.

With trembling feet, he took a step forward, and then another step, "Ah!"

Once the center of gravity stabilized, Yueyue threw herself forward.

She closed her eyes, expecting something different from the pain.

Not falling on the ground of the pomegranate yard, but a strange, strong and warm embrace.

Lueyue opened her eyes, met Uncle Ueda's dodging eyes, realized that he had saved her, blushed, "Thank you."

Lu Xinyan laughed wickedly at the side.

For a person who has never worn high heels, the first time he wears them, they still don't fit his feet, and wrestling is inevitable.

"Miss!" Lueyue stood up straight, blushing almost to the point of bleeding, and couldn't help complaining in a low voice.

Uncle Tian couldn't understand that it was Lu Xinyan's prank, his face was slightly blushing, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Miss, you can't walk in these high heels at all!"

"Who said you can't walk in it? Luaoyue, take it off, let me demonstrate!"

Lu Xinyan put on high heels, the long-lost feeling of pride made her body and mind fly, every pore exuded the aura of "I am a queen".

She has a flamboyant and domineering aura. Once she puts on these high-heeled shoes, she looks down on the world like a king descending!

Lu Xinyan started to walk like a cat.

Keep your chest up and your stomach in, relax your shoulders, tuck your chin in slightly, keep your eyes as sharp as you want, and your expression as arrogant as you want.

The stage is mine, the world is mine, all of this is mine!
Even without music, the aura so powerful that it filled the entire Pomegranate Courtyard, and the graceful figure that could not be spoken, still amazed everyone.

At the moment of freezing, Lu Xinyan set her pose and winked at Xiao He. Those eyes seemed to be carrying [-] watts of high voltage electricity, attracting everyone's attention.

"Ah! Ah!" Xiao He, the number one fan, raised her hands to the height of her cheeks and screamed uncontrollably, "Ah! Miss is the best!"

If she was a modern person, she would definitely shout out: Miss, I want to give birth to a monkey for you!

"Miss, am I beautiful?" Lu Xinyan asked Xiexie.

"The young lady is the most beautiful! The young lady is the most beautiful! The young lady is the most beautiful!" Xiao He held the stage and screamed loudly.

Lu Xinyan showed off her high-heeled shoes with a queen's proud posture, "It's not a big problem, the front is a little pinched, and the arc of the supporting sole is not enough. A little modification will be perfect."

"Then I'll take it to the blacksmith to make a new pair." Uncle Tian just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

"There's a model at the blacksmith shop, I keep these pairs for Shuyun... Yueyue to practice." Lu Xinyan bit the word "Liuyue" hard on purpose.

"Farewell." Uncle Tian fled in despair.

"Miss, why did Uncle Tian run so fast?" Xiao He asked puzzled.

"Yeah, I don't understand why Uncle Tian runs so fast?" Lu Xinyan looked at Lueyue with a smile, "Luoyue, do you know why?"

The blush on Lueyue's face that had finally faded away quickly covered her entire face, and she said angrily, "Miss~"

"Miss, I want to try." Shu Yun beside him was eager to try.

"Be careful, try to stand first, and then start walking when you find the feeling, and be careful not to twist your feet!"

"Got it, miss."

-

In the Pomegranate Yard, because of the arrival of the high heels, everyone was overjoyed. Everyone rushed to try it, but the one who was serious would fall down and burst into laughter.

The rest of the Guangping Marquis Mansion is covered with dark clouds.

It had been a day and two nights, and Gong Jie hadn't woken up yet.

If you don't wake up tonight, I'm afraid you won't wake up forever.

Gu's eyes were swollen like walnuts, but tears were still flowing, "Master, why is Jie'er still awake? If he can't wake up, I don't want to live anymore! Huh~"

Gong Mu was very irritable, "What nonsense are you talking about? Are you cursing our son? Stop crying!"

Then he said angrily: "It's all your fault, if you didn't believe in that Lu Xinyan and let a maid to treat Jie'er, would you have come to this point?"

At that time, the situation was urgent and Bai Zhi was the only one at home. If Bai Zhi hadn't taken action, Jie'er would have died of blood before the doctor came.

Gu Shi thought so in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it out of her mouth, she just lowered her head and sobbed non-stop.

"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore! I'll go out and find another doctor! I can't find any good ones, so I'll ask my aunt to let her enter the palace to beg the queen mother, and send an imperial doctor to treat Jie'er! Anyway... Anyway..." Gong Mu's lips trembled, and tears glistened in his eyes, "I won't let Jie'er get into trouble."

When Gu Shi heard about the imperial doctor, she immediately stopped crying, "Master, why don't we go beg Auntie right now?"

"Why don't I want to? But it's not an emergency, how can I ask for it? If the imperial doctor finally comes and Jie'er wakes up, wouldn't it make the queen mother feel that we are making a fuss in the Guangping Marquis?"

"Then...then...can we just wait until night? If the imperial doctor is late, then Jieer..."

"If this is the case, then you can only accept your fate!" Gong Hao gritted his teeth.

"Master..." Upon hearing this, Mrs. Gu began to cry aloud.

At this time, a servant girl suddenly came to report, "Second Master, Second Madam, Sixth Young Master is awake!"

"Are you awake?" Gu couldn't believe it, and stood up precariously, "Quick, help me!"

In Shilin Courtyard, Gong Jie really woke up.

His face was pale, and cold sweat was dripping densely on his forehead because of the pain, but he did wake up.

Bai Zhi asked a few simple questions, and Gong Jie answered slowly, but they were all correct, indicating that there is no problem with the brain, and it only needs to rest for a while to recover.

"Sixth Young Master, don't worry, everything will return to normal after a while." Bai Zhi smiled.

"Thank you, Miss Bai Zhi." Gong Jie said weakly.

The ward was filled with people one after another, Lu Xinyan noticed that an important person was missing, her eyebrows twitched, "Second Cousin, where is Gong Mei?"

"Meier? She went to the Confucius Temple to pray for Jieer."

What?Lu Xinyan said sharply: "Didn't I say that it's not peaceful recently, don't go out of the house if you have nothing to do?"

It was inexplicable for Mrs. Gu to be yelled at by her, "Meier is...going to pray for blessings, not...going to play..."

Lu Xinyan didn't have time to explain to her, "When did you go?"

"It's been... for more than an hour." Seeing her serious expression, Mrs. Gu's heart beat suddenly, "What...is something wrong?"

Her son and daughter are her darlings, and after finally waking up her son, nothing will happen to her daughter!

Lu Xinyan didn't answer her words, "Qingtong, go and invite Uncle Tian!"

Qingtong knew the seriousness, so she went directly to Uncle Tian without answering.

The two came back soon.

Lu Xinyan said: "Uncle Tian, ​​Bai Zhi, you are here to guard the sixth younger brother, Qingtong and I have something to go out."

"Zhuzhu, it's really Meier..." Mrs. Gu grabbed Lu Xinyan, her face turned pale, and she insisted on asking.

Lu Xinyan looked coldly at the hand holding her sleeve, "Second Cousin, I don't know if something happened now, but if you don't let go, if something happens, no one can save Fourth Sister!"

Gu Shi panicked and let go of her hand.

Lu Xinyan and Qingtong went straight to the outside of the courtyard, time was tight, they didn't take a carriage, Qingtong rode a horse and took Lu Xinyan straight to the Confucius Temple.

The Confucius Temple is in the south of the city, and it takes a quarter of an hour to ride a horse.

Because of the existence of Qingyan Temple, the incense in the Confucius Temple is not very prosperous, and there are few dignitaries and dignitaries who come and go, mainly ordinary people.

As a young lady of the Hou's Mansion, Gong Mei's clothes are different from ordinary people's, so Lu Xinyan quickly found out where she was.

The two quickly walked to a meditation room dedicated to Guanyin.

In order to pray sincerely, Gong Mei spent the whole afternoon paying money, so there was no one around this meditation room.

Lu Xinyan pushed open the door, and the Bodhisattva looked down on all living beings with compassion.

The big red silk on the incense table poured down, and on it was an incense burner the size of a bucket mouth, with three sticks of incense sticking in the incense burner.

The cigarette is lingering, with a bit of cheap pungent smell, and it is obvious that it has not been long since it was plugged in.

On the futon in front, Gong Mei was nowhere to be seen.

"Qingtong, search separately."

The two searched like a carpet on the left and right, and suddenly Qingtong exclaimed, "Miss, Chuxue is here!"

Chuxue is Qingmei's maid.

Lu Xinyan hurried over, Qingtong had already woken Chuxue up, "Chuxue, what happened? Where's the fourth sister?"

Chuxue's eyes were slack, "Young Madam? The servant doesn't know what happened. When Miss Si was praying, the servant felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck, and her eyes went dark. Before she passed out, she only heard the lady's exclamation, and then the servant stopped. Wake up."

Qingtong pressed the back of her neck, and she really felt a hard spot.

"Hiss!" Chuxue gasped and asked, "Where is Fourth Miss?"

"Look again!" Seeing that she couldn't find anything, Lu Xinyan said decisively, "You too!"

Chuxue didn't dare to ask more questions, so the three of them split up.

The Zen room is not big, and the three of them searched over and over again, but couldn't find any clues.

"Miss, maybe you're not here!" Qing Tong said, but glanced at the incense table with her eyes.

The red silk on the incense table was shaking slightly, as if being blown by the wind.

If you don't look closely, you can't really see it.

Lu Xinyan understood, "Look elsewhere!"

She and Chuxue strode out, but Qingtong stood on tiptoe and walked towards the incense table gently like a cat.

The red silk was quickly uncovered.

The man holding the dagger pressed down on Gong Mei didn't have time to react, Qingtong quickly tapped his acupuncture points, making him unable to move.

The man's trousers were half removed, revealing half of his smooth ass.

Gong Mei under him had disheveled hair, most of her clothes were torn off, half of her white snow was exposed, patches of bruises were shocking.

Seeing Lu Xinyan, she burst into tears with a "wow".

Qingtong picked up the man and threw it aside, Lu Xinyan went over, wrapped up the lapel of Gong Mei who was crying to the point of dying, hugged her into her arms, and comforted her softly, "Okay, it's all right."

"Sister-in-law...Sister-in-law..." Gong Mei broke down in tears, tightly clutching Lu Xinyan's clothes and not letting go.

"Chuxue, go get some clothes from the carriage!"

Chuxue, who was stunned by this scene, immediately ran outside.

"I'll take my fourth sister to the next door to change clothes." Lu Xinyan glanced at the man not far away, and said to Qingtong.

Qingtong understood, "Understood, miss, I'll wait for Chuxue here."

After Lu Xinyan guarded Gong Mei and changed her clothes, Gong Mei's mood stabilized a lot.

The clothes she replaced were dirty and rotten, but luckily there was no blood. It seemed that she was interrupted at a critical moment, and the other party didn't succeed. Lu Xinyan felt relieved, "Fourth sister, what's going on?"

"Sister-in-law!" Thinking of the previous nightmare, Gong Mei trembled and her eyes turned red, "I... I don't know, I was praying there, suddenly Chuxue exclaimed, and when I turned around, I saw a man holding a With a wooden stick, Chuxue had already fallen to the ground, and then he pounced on me and dragged me under the incense table... Sister-in-law, it’s lucky that you came in time, otherwise I would be finished! Huh..."

Gong Mei threw herself into Lu Xinyan's arms again, "It's okay, it's all over." Lu Xinyan patted her on the back, "I said before that you should try not to go out if you have nothing to do, why do you think of Confucius Temple to pray for the sixth brother? And Just brought Chuxue out alone?"

It stands to reason that if you want to go, you will also go to Qingyan Temple, which is famous and has a special official channel, so you will never meet such dirty people.

That man, Lu Xinyan, only glanced at him, but didn't see it too clearly, but with his wretched demeanor, he didn't look like he was from a well-born family.

"I heard from my third sister that the Confucius Temple is very effective, and it's not far from our residence. I just wanted to pray for my sixth brother. I only brought Chuxue with me when I went to Qingyan Temple, so I didn't think much about it..." Gong Mei said As he said that, he lowered his head, feeling scared for a while.

Before going to Qingyan Temple, the whole family went together, this time you are alone, okay?No sense of danger at all!

Seeing Gong Mei's overly frightened appearance, Lu Xinyan couldn't be too harsh, "Fourth sister, don't go out alone in the future, you know?"

"Understood, sister-in-law." After this experience, who dares to go out alone in the future?

"Why did the third sister tell you about the Confucius Temple?" It was Gongrou again!Lu Xinyan doesn't believe that this incident has nothing to do with Gong Rou.

"The third elder sister mentioned it to me because she saw that I was worried about the sixth brother." Gong Mei didn't suspect Gong Rou at this time, thinking that it was just her bad luck that she met a nasty womanizer.

At this moment, Qingtong knocked on the door, "Miss, Fourth Miss."

"Come in." It seemed that something was wrong, Lu Xinyan asked Gong Mei, "Fourth sister, do you want to know why that person appeared?"

"It's not me... am I out of luck?"

Although Gong Mei is a little clever, but after all, she has never been through any storms, so she would not think about other aspects.

"Qingtong, tell me what that person confessed."

Qingtong said: "The man's name is Changde. He is thirty years old. His wife has been dead for ten years. He is the owner of a snack bar in the capital. He has some money in his hands. Because he played with several concubines to death, some people say that his wife was also played by him. Dead, no one dared to marry his daughter to him, so he has been single until now. According to Changde, someone left a note at his snack bar at noon today, saying that going to the place written on it would allow him to marry a Changde was curious about the beautiful girl who was as she wished, and came to the Confucius Temple, seeing how beautiful the fourth lady was, he became lustful, knocked out Chuxue, intending to do something wrong to the fourth lady."

Lu Xinyan asked: "Who left the note?"

Qingtong shook his head, "Changde said that his snack bar business is very good, and there are people coming and going, but he didn't notice who it was."

Gong Mei finally came to her senses at this time, and asked with a pale face: "No... I'm not lucky, someone did it on purpose? I... I didn't offend anyone! The only people who know that I'm here are A Niang and Third Sister...Third Sister ?!"

Of course it is impossible for Mrs. Gu to harm her, Gong Mei's eyes widened in disbelief, "Third Sister, it's Third Sister! She also proposed to come to the Confucius Temple! Why did Third Sister want to harm me? Nothing in her way? Why would she do that?"

It's not Gong Rou who wants to harm you, it's the people behind Gong Rou who want to harm you!Gong Rou is just an accomplice!

With these words, Lu Xinyan couldn't say directly to Gong Mei, "Qingtong, tie up that man and hide him first, and you can come and check in his shop later!"

For the sake of Gong Mei's reputation, that person can't be taken away.

"Yes, ma'am."

"Go home first."

Several people were about to move, when suddenly there was a muffled groan from the next door, Qingtong immediately opened the door, only to see a man in black jumping in front of him, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The blood on Changde's neck kept oozing, he twitched twice, and soon became silent.

Qingtong stomped her feet, and said in a hateful voice: "Damn thief, do you want to chase after Miss?"

"No need! The other party has made careful arrangements in advance. If Changde succeeds, the killer will not show up. If Changde is discovered, the killer will kill and silence." Lu Xinyan said: "So the other party must have arranged a retreat. It's useless, but it may have fallen into the opponent's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain."

Qingtong said: "Miss is right! Returning home safely is the most important thing!"

"Let's go."

Gong Mei was so frightened that her whole body went limp, and Chuxue was so frightened that she almost fainted.

Lu Xinyan and Qingtong had no choice but to support each other, leave the Confucius Temple, and get into the carriage from Gongjin outside.

The coachman didn't know what was going on inside, he was very surprised when he saw Lu Xinyan appearing suddenly, but he wisely didn't ask any further questions, whipped his horsewhip, and drove towards the Hou's mansion.

In Renlin Courtyard, Gong Jie woke up, and after a group of people came to express their condolences, they left quickly at Bai Zhi's request.

Only Gu begged to stay and promised not to disturb Gong Jie's rest, Bai Zhi agreed.

After a while, a man who looked like a servant came in with medicine, it was A Li from Gong Jie's yard.

Bai Zhi took the medicine bowl, smelled it, and tried it with a spoon. After confirming that it was the medicine prescribed by herself, she woke Gong Jie up, "Sixth Young Master, get up and take the medicine."

Gong Jie wakes up leisurely.

A Li hurried forward to help Gong Jie up, Bai Zhi handed over the medicine bowl, "Master Six, can I drink it myself?"

"I'll try." Gong Jie stretched out his pale hands that were almost bloodless, holding the medicine bowl, and slowly brought it to his mouth.

When he was still two inches away from his mouth, his hands suddenly trembled, and Ah Li who was on the side quickly grabbed the bowl, "Sixth Young Master, be careful."

Gong Jie smiled gratefully, "Thank you, Ah Li."

Ah Li showed an unnatural expression, "This is what a young person should do, Master Six, the medicine is getting cold, drink it quickly."

Gong Jie brought the bowl to his mouth again, and was about to drink it, when a sudden voice came, "Wait!"

Uncle Tian, ​​who had been guarding not far away, quickly moved to the side of the bed and held A Li, "Bai Zhi, can you hear if there is any problem with this medicine!"

Bai Zhi opened her mouth wide in surprise. When she saw A Li's face suddenly changed color, she realized something, and quickly snatched the medicine bowl from Gong Jie's hand. After trying it in his mouth, he said in surprise: "This...this medicine contains blood-septic medicine!"

Uncle Tian's men forcefully said, "Say! Who ordered you?"

Gu's and Gong Jie haven't reacted to the sudden change, Gu's puzzled: "Didn't Miss Baizhi prescribe this medicine? You tried it just now and it was fine. Why did you add some blood-septic medicine?" ,What is it?"

Bai Zhi explained: "Young Master Six lost a lot of blood. All the medicines I prescribed are for promoting muscle growth, stopping bleeding and nourishing blood. If you accidentally add septic medicine, Young Master Six's wound will burst and the bleeding will not stop!"

"Bleeding? Isn't that..." Gu's voice was lost, Gong Jie had already lost a lot of blood, and if the bleeding continued, wouldn't he be dead? "Why would someone... want to kill my Jie'er?" She asked tremblingly.

Gu's temperament is honest, and the only one who wants to compete for the limelight is that when he competed with Lian for the power of the family, he took advantage of Lian's faults and satirized a few words in front of Feng. Does Jieer do it again and again?
"I'll go to my aunt for a review!" Mrs. Gu was furious, left without saying a word.

Bai Zhi wanted to stop it in time, but when she turned around, she saw a streak of black blood dripping from A Li's lips, her complexion was black and blue, she must have bitten the poison in her mouth and swallowed it and died.

She quickly stretched out her hands to cover Gong Jie's shocked eyes, "Sixth Young Master, don't look, you lie down and rest first."

But Gong Jie had already seen it. At the age of 12, it was the first time he saw someone die silently in front of him. He was so frightened that half of his souls were lost. "Ah Li...Why did A Li kill me?"

Bai Zhi asked: "Has the Sixth Young Master punished Ah Li recently?"

Gong Jie shook his head, "There are only four servants in my yard. The relationship between master and servant has always been good. I have never punished anyone."

"Could it be that you didn't know that he was being excluded, so you got angry with him?" Bai Zhi asked again.

Gong Jie said: "Ah Li has a cheerful personality, and the other three people like him very much. Since he follows his lead, if he wants to be excluded, it is because he excludes others. There is absolutely no reason to be excluded."

"Sixth Young Master, I will tell Miss about this, you lie down first, and I will send someone to decoct the medicine." Bai Zhi smiled firmly, "Sixth Young Master, don't be afraid, I will always be here to watch, and will not let anyone hurt you."

Gong Jie settled down a bit, the tips of her ears turned red, "Thank you, Miss Baizhi."

Bai Zhi closed the door, Uncle Tian stood outside the door, and on the ground was A Li, whose face was completely black and his whole body was stiff.

"Uncle Tian, ​​how do you know that he took the medicine? Obviously, I tried it myself before and it was fine." Bai Zhi said
Uncle Tian replied: "When the Sixth Young Master couldn't hold the bowl just now, his movements were a bit strange! I stopped it just in case!"

"So that's how it is." Bai Zhi sighed softly, "That man is too bold, he dared to bribe Ah Li to poison the medicine in front of his face!"

"After the incident, Ah Li committed suicide. It seems that he was not a bribe but a threat!" Uncle Tian said, "No one in the house knew that I knew kung fu except for the people in the Pomegranate Court. You and the second lady are poisoned, if something happens to the Sixth Young Master, you will definitely be blamed, and then the young lady will be involved! If the young lady is charged with instigating you to poison, she will be suspended from the house at any time!"

"What a vicious mind! Killing two birds with one stone!" Bai Zhi shuddered, "Fortunately, Miss has the foresight to ask Uncle Tian to come over, otherwise..."

Who is the person behind this scene?Is it the same person who killed Jiang Huai, or did someone take advantage of Gong Jie's injury to have another idea?
Bai Zhi had a headache thinking about it, "We'll wait for Miss to come back to make a judgment on this matter."

Lu Xinyan wanted to send Gong Mei back to her Meiyuan first, but Gong Mei was terrified and refused to leave her, so she had to bring Gong Mei to find Uncle Bai Zhitian.

Gong Mei knew that Gong Jie had woken up, and the previous shock dissipated for a little while, and immediately rushed in to see Gong Jie.

Bai Zhi took the opportunity to tell Lu Xinyan about Ah Li's drug use, and about Gu's going to Feng's for comment.

Lu Xinyan was mentally prepared for the previous matter, but it was Gu who linked this matter with Lian and went to Feng for comment, which she did not expect.

"I'll go to see my grandmother." Lu Xinyan said.

In the Fushouyuan, Gu Shi cried with snot and tears, and asked Feng Shi to be the master for himself, "Auntie, you know Jie'er's temperament best. He is gentle and doesn't like to argue with others. The little servants in the house are all soft-spoken, how could they offend outsiders and be retaliated against? You also know that my niece is a person. She has always kept her duty honestly and never fought or robbed. She has never offended anyone in this mansion before. !"

She glanced at Lian Shi bitterly, "The only thing is because of the power of the family, I have some rifts with the third sibling, but the power of the family has already been decided, why are there still people who insist on killing me, Jieer?" ?”

At first, Lian didn't know what Gu was pulling her here for. Thinking of Gong Jie's injury, she felt sorry for her, so she followed her. Unexpectedly, Gu's words were meant to imply that she was Because of the fact that he was in charge of the family before, he was dissatisfied with the Gu family, and bought murder?
Lian jumped up in shock, "Second sister-in-law, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense! When did I want to kill Jie'er? Jie'er is my nephew, and my heart aches when he gets hurt. How could you This crime can be placed on my head casually?"

 Thanks to Xinyuegou Hanyu for the evaluation ticket, and thank you Yixiaomu, chillyzhao, Qingwu Feiyang, and 35588 for the monthly tickets.
