Concubine like a house

Chapter 126 The newcomers are both like the old ones (2)
Seeing this, Emperor Tianshou sneered: "It's so stupid!" After saying that, he walked away, and Cen Jiang hurriedly followed.Nie Peixiao saw that the people in the garden were completely gone, and Zihan didn't know why, so she also sighed: "What a pity this face." Subconsciously, Zihan raised his hand to touch his cheek, and asked suspiciously: "Is Your Highness talking about Minnen?"

Nie Peixiao didn't want to get entangled with her, so she just said: "You go back first, it's none of your business here." After finishing her speech, she also went to Zhaixing Tower.

In the small bedroom on the second floor of the building, Dan Xin was lying on the bed, almost unconscious.Zhu Ying stood outside the door avoiding suspicion, and there were only Shen Yu and Chu Xiu in the room.Chuxiu used scissors to cut off the clothes pasted on Danxin's back, but only gently opened it, and saw a blister, which was very frightening.

Chuxiu couldn't bear to look at it any more, and covered her red lips and couldn't stop crying.However, Shen Yu saw at a glance that there was still a bruise on Danxin's waist, which should have been hit by the medicine cup just now.Seeing that Xiu was crying sadly, he persuaded him: "Don't cry, Prince Cheng's mansion is full of miraculous medicines, and Yun's mansion also has them, so nothing will happen if you take it lightly."

When Shen Yu said this, Chuxiu also reacted.She doesn't know if there are any strange medicines in Prince Cheng's mansion, but Yun's mansion has a lot of treasured medicinal materials!She immediately came to her senses and said to Shen Yu, "I'll send someone back to get the medicine!"

Just as he was speaking, Feng Fei, Nie Peixiao's bodyguard, also led a few servants to the door, but was stopped by Zhu Ying.Feng Fei immediately said to the door: "General Shen, Mrs. Chuxiu, under the order of His Highness Wang Cheng, came to deliver medicine to Miss Danxin." Chuxiu quickly wiped away the tears, took another look at Danxin, and said: "She can't see anyone like this. I'll go and bring in the medicine box."

Shen Yu let out a "hmm" and went straight out of Chuxiu.Just as he took the medicine box, there was a rush of footsteps, and it was Nie Peixiao who walked up to the second floor.

"Your Highness." Chuxiu saluted with reddish eyes.Nie Peixiao nodded slightly as a response, and only asked Chuxiu: "Are you really not burned?" Chuxiu shook her head, "I'm fine. I'm calm..." She suddenly realized that there were many men present, and it was inconvenient to send her daughter home. When he said something, he stopped halfway.Nie Peixiao saw that the hem of Chuxiu's skirt was stained with bits and pieces of medicinal juice, so she glanced at Feng Fei and ordered: "Find a way to find a dress for Madam. I want a new one." Feng Fei immediately accepted the order. , lead people back.Bamboo Shadow was still stuck in place, not moving.Seeing that the outsiders had withdrawn, Nie Peixiao didn't take Zhuying to heart, and continued to ask: "How is the situation? Is it serious?" Chuxiu nodded: "I'm still undergoing diagnosis and treatment, and my back is full of blisters." , I'm afraid it will leave a scar." "If you need any medicinal materials, just ask." Nie Peixiao said again.

Went out of Xiudao and thanked him, but apparently still couldn't lift his spirits: "I also have some precious medicinal materials in my house, I don't know if I can use them lightly or not."

Nie Peixiao waved her hand and said, "Mrs. Xie is very old, so I have to use a few good medicines. I am in my prime, and those medicines have been left in the warehouse for many years, so I feel lonely. Don't go back and forth, Let's see the situation."

It turns out that the aloof King Cheng is also considerate of others... Chuxiu couldn't help but feel a sore nose, and was a little moved: "On behalf of my heart, I would like to thank you."

Nie Peixiao sighed: "Believe it or not, I am very grateful to Danxin. If she hadn't blocked you for you, I'm afraid you would..."

He didn't say the word "disfigurement", but Chuxiu could guess it.That's right, it's the back that is sad for Danxing. If she had been facing Zihan just now, all the soup would have been poured on her face, disfiguring her face was inevitable.But she would rather disfigure herself than suffer for her indifferently.

Nie Peixiao also understood that Chuxiu felt uncomfortable, so she couldn't help comforting her: "I have sent someone to find a doctor who is proficient in burns. You also have to trust Zifeng's medical skills."

"I hope so." Chuxiu could only pin his hopes on Shen Yu, and tears fell down again.She was most unwilling to owe others in her life, but she owed a lot.I owe Yunci's life, I owe Shen Yu and Nie Peixiao's love, and now I owe my heart... crystal clear teardrops rolled down her cheeks, and Nie Peixiao couldn't stop crying when she saw Chuxiu, but she also felt the same in her heart. Soft into a pool of water.He forgot that Zhuying was there for a moment, and stepped forward to wipe away the tears for Chuxiu. As soon as he raised his right hand, Zhuying who was hiding at the side suddenly appeared to stop him: "Your Highness."

After being reminded by Zhu Ying, Nie Peixiao also realized her gaffe, so she had to withdraw her hand.After being disturbed by such a scene, the three people in the building were all silent, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward.Fortunately, at this time, the servants brought in the ice cubes, which was considered a timely relief.Nie Peixiao knew that Danxin was hurting her back and it was not suitable for men to enter, so she ordered a few maidservants to bring ice cubes in.Chuxiu wanted to thank him, but before Zhu Lip could speak, Nie Peixiao waved her hand and said, "You don't need to thank me, I'm also doing it for you."

When he said this, it was hard to say anything when he came out of Xiuxiu, he just said: "I will go in to see Danxin too." After speaking, he followed the maidservants inside.

Walking around the screen with light steps, Chuxiu saw Shen Yu sitting on the edge of the couch, picking up blisters for his naked back.But Danxin was still in a coma, her eyebrows were tightly furrowed, as if expressing her pain.

Shen Yu was extremely serious, his sharp-edged side face condensed into a mountain and river, under the reflection of the candlelight, it showed a kind of rare tranquility and softness, as if it was surrounded by clouds and mist after the rain, it was very unreal.He holds a needle in his right hand and holds a medicine bottle in his left hand. Every time he picks a blister, he will sprinkle the medicine on it, and his movements are skillful and cautious.

Hearing the sound of footsteps behind the screen, Shen Yu ordered without raising his head: "Put the ice down, leave one person here to wait on it, and the others go out first."

His voice was not too loud, just enough for the maidservants outside the screen to hear.Everyone saluted and said "yes", leaving only one person to help.At this point, Shen Yu realized that there was one more person in the room, and couldn't help but look up, and saw Chuxiu standing on the screen.

Shen Yu's heart twitched, and he greeted the only remaining maid: "Wrap ice in a sweat towel, and dry the yellow water on her back. Remember not to touch the wound, and don't wipe off the wound medicine. Don't cover the quilt, Let the wound dry."

The maid nodded again and again, and Shen Yu got up from the couch, wiped off the medicine powder on his hands, went to Chuxiu and asked her, "Are you crying again?"

Chuxiu quickly lowered her eyes and denied: "No." "Then why are your eyes red like rabbit eyes?" Shen Yu asked with concern in a low voice, and then said, "Don't worry, at most it will leave scars all over the body, nothing worse than this." It's worse." Chuxiu heard the words choked up for a moment, then remembered the bruise on Danxin's lumbar spine, and asked quickly: "How is the injury on her waist?" "No bones, nothing serious. Seeing her anxious expression, Shen Yu comforted her, "Don't worry, I know Danxin earlier than you, and I also regard her as a girl, so I will treat her with all my heart." Chu Xiu still couldn't help but look into the screen. Look: "Why is Danxin still awake? She has been in a coma for a long time." "I used some Mafeisan for her." Shen Yu explained, "When I picked up the water just now, she had already woken up from the pain. I was afraid that she would be hurt. I had to bite my tongue, so I gave her some medicine. Let her sleep on her stomach, and she will wake up early tomorrow morning." Chuxiu nodded, thought for a while, and said: "I haven't had time to congratulate you, you got your wish and revived The lintel." Shen Yu chuckled: "It can only be regarded as 'reviving the lintel', not 'fulfilling one's wish'. Unless..." He purposely did not finish his sentence, and looked at Chuxiu with clear eyes.Chuxiu couldn't continue with this sentence, so he had to remain silent.She suddenly found that Shen Yu at this moment is rarely gentle, at least since they met each other, she has seen Shen Yu domineering, profligate, affectionate, chilling, sad, disappointed, and even depressed... She asked herself that she had seen all kinds of appearances of him , but never saw his gentleness.

She thought she saw Yunci... Chuxiu closed her eyes fiercely, and opened them again after a long moment of composure, but she was dizzy from the scent of medicine on Shen Yu's body.Her figure flickered and she was almost unable to stand still. When Shen Yu stretched out his hand to support her, suddenly there was a violent flash of light passing between the two of them, which also illuminated each other's expressions very clearly.

Shen Yu said something, but it was dissipated in the lightning and thunder outside the building.The pouring rain suddenly poured down, and the sound of "squeaky" was startling. Chuxiu couldn't help looking out the window and found that it was raining.

This was the first rain in Yanlan City this summer, and it happened to happen on the day when Emperor Tianshou arrived.Not only did it come without warning, but it also wiped out the feelings that had been brewing between Shen Yu and Chuxiu just now.

With the sound of rain getting louder and the lightning getting stronger, Chuxiu became more worried.At this time, Nie Peixiao knocked on the door again: "Come out of Xiu."

Chuxiu quickly regained consciousness, went to open the door, and saw Nie Peixiao and Zhu Ying appearing outside the door together.Nie Peixiao took a look inside the room, and said: "It's raining heavily outside, and you are calm and hurt, why don't you stay here tonight?"

Stay here?Chuxiu refused without hesitation: "No, I have to go back. I'm a widow and the mistress of the Yun family. It's not in accordance with etiquette to stay here overnight."

This answer was within Nie Peixiao's expectations, and he did not show much disappointment.Chuxiu turned to look at the screen behind her, and sighed again: "But I'm afraid it's not suitable for Danxin to move, and I will bother you at the house for a few days. I will come to see her every day." Nie Peixiao nodded: "That's easy to say, Don't worry, I will send someone to take good care of her." Having said that, Chuxiu is still worried about leaving her indifferent here, and Shen Yu... Emperor Tianshou is notoriously moody. Thinking of something again, what should I do to punish Shen Yu's crime?Chuxiu wants to keep Zhu Ying behind, so that no matter what happens in Prince Cheng's mansion, Zhu Ying will find a way to notify Yun Mansion.

What Chuxiu never expected was that Shen Yu thought of going with her: "It's really inappropriate to stay in Chengwang's Mansion overnight in Chuxiu. It's raining heavily outside. I wonder if you can bother Your Highness to send her back personally? Wei Chen and Zhuying will stay. Take care of Danxin girl." Personally?Chuxiu turned around to look at Shen Yu with some surprises, and happened to meet his gaze, who explained very carefully: "I don't worry about being sent off by others." The fire reflected on his face, casting a thick shadow, as heavy as a mountain peak, as deep as the vast sea.In the flickering light and the dark, Chuxiu felt that his mind had settled down, and he was no longer the anxiety and sadness just now.

"Zifeng is right, I don't feel worried about others sending you off, but I should take you back in person." Nie Peixiao immediately agreed, and then asked Chuxiu, "It's raining heavily outside, let's wait until the rain is lighter?"

Going out of Xiuxiu, I looked out the window at the continuous heavy rain. With such heavy rain, no matter how good the carriage is, I am afraid it will not be able to run.She had no choice but to nod her head: "Okay." After saying that, she said to Shen Yu: "I leave my heart to you."

Shen Yu nodded solemnly, did not say much, turned back to the screen and continued to treat Danxin.Seeing this, Chuxiu also said to Nie Peixiao and Zhuying: "It's inconvenient for a man to stay here, let's go out, don't disturb Danxin's healing."

The three of them walked to the verandah together, the sound of the rain was rustling, and there was no intention of stopping.The night wind blows from time to time, bringing traces of rain into the porch, and there is also a damp and fresh smell of rain floating in the air, which is really pleasant.The three said they were watching the rain, but it was not the case, they just had nowhere to go.With the bamboo shadow beside her, Nie Peixiao didn't know what to comfort Chuxiu, so she said, "You're frightened tonight, go and rest for a while, and I'll take you back when the rain calms down." "Well, thank you, Your Highness." Chu Xiu bowed down to salute.Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, the sound of rain outside suddenly became quieter. Nie Peixiao looked out and sighed with a smile: "The rain in summer is really like a woman's temper." "How do you say it?"

"If it's cloudy, it's cloudy, if it's sunny, it's sunny. There's no sign." After finishing speaking, the two laughed together.Nie Peixiao saw that the rain had turned to a patter, so she didn't delay any longer, saying:

"I ordered my servants to set up the car, and I'll take you home right away."

Saying goodbye to the bamboo shadow, two oil-paper umbrellas were slowly propped up in the rain, and Nie Peixiao and Chuxiu walked side by side towards the gate of Prince Cheng's mansion, getting their shoes wet along the way.For the sake of Chuxiu's reputation, and with the lessons learned from sharing a ride together last time, Nie Peixiao also learned how to measure, and specially prepared two carriages. He and Chuxiu rode separately, and drove towards Yunfu one after the other. .

The road was slippery in the rain, and the carriage was not traveling fast, and when it arrived at Yunfu safely, it was already past time.The rain is still falling, but there is no lightning and thunder, and the rain is not as majestic as before.

Nie Peixiao jumped out of the carriage first, walked to another carriage gracefully, and personally helped Chuxiu down.The coachman immediately opened an umbrella for the two of them, and Chuxiu took one handily, and thanked Nie Peixiao: "Thank you so much tonight, Your Highness, it's too late, you should go back home and rest."

Although there was a coachman holding an umbrella, Nie Peixiao's right shoulder was still drenched by the rain, but he didn't notice it, and his handsome eyes were bright: "I hope that one day, you can stay in Chengwang's mansion brightly and aboveboard, and I don't need to see you off again." You come back." After finishing speaking, before Chuxiu could answer, he turned and returned to the carriage.

Amidst the pattering rain, the two carriages in Prince Cheng's Mansion gradually disappeared, and it was only when they came out of Xiuxiu that they suddenly remembered something—two years ago, in Prince Cheng's Mansion, a concubine once sent Nie Peixiao a gift on a rainy day. cloak.She vaguely remembered that the concubine said that Nie Peixiao's right shoulder was seriously injured in the battle, and every time it was windy and rainy, the pain would be piercing... But he spent the whole time with her with his usual expression night.
