The Stratagem of the Concubine of the Cold King

Chapter 39
After the Da Furen gave an order, Xiao Teng's subordinates didn't want Xiao Teng to cause a bigger incident, otherwise they would all die. One of them, boldly, slapped Xiao Teng on the back of the neck, Xiao Teng fell into a coma for an instant.

Taking advantage of Xiao Teng's unconsciousness, several people hurriedly waited for him to put on his clothes.

The Da Furen also ordered the servant girl to prepare the soft sedan chair, and finally told Xiao Teng's subordinates to send Xiao Teng back to the Household Secretary's Mansion safely.

About two quarters of an hour later, the group arrived at Hubu Shangshu's Mansion.

This Hubu Shangshu Mansion is not much different from other official mansions. There is also a pair of mighty stone lions standing in front of the door. The vermilion lacquer gate is imposing and grand. The gatekeepers are two boys in Tsing Yi.

Several of Xiao Teng's subordinates carefully supported Xiao Teng to get off the soft sedan chair. Seeing this, the two young men in green clothes hurriedly opened the door to welcome Xiao Teng back to his residence.

Xiao Teng was in a coma, several of his subordinates did not dare to delay for a moment, helped him into the mansion quickly, passing countless small gardens, covered bridges and small ponds along the way, bypassing several pavilions, turning around Finally arrived at the small courtyard where Xiao Teng lived.

Xiao Teng was carried back to the Xiao Mansion with great fanfare, and he was in a coma again. The servants of the Xiao Mansion dared not delay, they had already arranged someone to notify Xiao Yunhe, Minister of the Household Department, and Qin Yulian, the Minister's wife.

"My son, if there is something wrong with you, how can you live as a mother." As soon as the maid helped Xiao Teng to lie down, Qin's heart-piercing cry came.

Qin was the first to enter the room, and saw that she was wearing a butterfly peony pleated skirt that dragged the floor. The skirt was covered with a light gauze of the same color. , a hair of black silk rolled into a high bun on the temples, towering over her head, five or six gilt hairpins inlaid with gemstones are inserted in the bun, and two ruby ​​earrings follow her as she walks, flashing and flickering. .

Following Qin Shi into the house was Xiao Yunhe. Behind Xiao Yunhe were several women who were Yingying and Yanyan. These women were all Xiao Yunhe's concubines and housemates.

Xiao Yunhe was in his forties, of medium height, with a square face and mustache, dressed in brocade clothes, with an official air.

Mrs. Qin hurried to Xiao Teng's bed, saw Xiao Teng's eyes closed tightly, his face pale, couldn't hold it back for a while, and started howling again, crying, "My poor son, I'm doing well this morning. Yes, why is it like this now?"

Xiao Yunhe saw his son lying motionless on the bed, and his expression was extremely ugly. Although there were countless concubines in his mansion, he only had such a son.

"You bunch of useless slaves, the young master went out in the morning, why did you come back like this?" Xiao Yunhe blushed, and Lei Ting said angrily.

Seeing Xiao Yunhe getting angry, Xiao Teng's subordinates all knelt on the ground with a plop.

They rushed to reply: "Master, today the servants accompanied the young master to the Ziyue Pavilion in the aunt's house, who would have known that there was a little maid in the Ziyue Pavilion who was very skilled, and beat all the servants indiscriminately. After coming out, the servants were afraid that the young master would suffer, so they hurriedly informed the aunt, and then the aunt took the servants to Ziyuexuan to rescue the young master, but unexpectedly, in the Xikua courtyard of the mansion, they saw the young master in messy clothes. Hugging a willow tree, the young master was in a daze at the time, and the slave and others didn't know what happened."

"They're all a bunch of useless idiots, and they can't even take care of you young master. What's the use of raising you." Seeing Xiao Teng's half-dead look, Xiao Yunhe obviously couldn't relieve his anger without seeing blood, loudly reprimanded several servants, and continued: "Come here, take these dog slaves out and beat them to death with sticks."

"Master, please forgive me, please forgive me." Upon hearing this, several people were so frightened that their faces turned livid and their bodies trembled constantly.

Bang bang bang, the sound of kowtow begging for mercy suddenly sounded in the room, Xiao Yunhe ignored it at all, and then a few people came up and dragged Xiao Teng's subordinates out of the room.

Along with the sound of crackling and beating sticks, there were bursts of miserable cries and begging for mercy, Xiao Yunhe didn't even frown when he heard the prudent man's cries.

"Master, calm down, so that you don't lose your temper." Seeing Xiao Yunhe's furious anger, one of the women in a pink dress persuaded her softly, her voice was so soft that it could ripple.

Seeing that the woman in the pink dress took the lead, the other women said one after another, not to be outdone.

"That's right, master, the young master is still in a coma, so don't get angry." The woman in yellow said.

"Master, the young master is still waiting for you to seek justice for him." The woman in green said.

"Sister, you should also take care of your health, don't cry yourself to death, this eldest son is still counting on your mother to comfort you." The woman in blue saw that she had been robbed of all her words, and turned to the Qin family.

Listening to those Yingying Yanyan saying you and me, Qin's face was very embarrassed, and he cursed inwardly, they were all coquettish, all came to see her pity and jokes.

The few Yingying and Yanyan each said a few words of comfort, and they stopped talking. Seeing Qin's grief, they were all happy. This Qin's relying on being the main wife and having a male beside him, They suppressed them everywhere, and what's even more hateful is that Qin shi even secretly beat their stomachs, so that they have nothing to do until now. Now Xiao Teng is just unconscious, and they wish he would never wake up.

At this time, a maid came in leading a doctor.

"Master, the doctor is here." The servant girl first reported to Xiao Yunhe, and then led the doctor into the house.

"The old man has met Lord Shangshu." Langzhong carried the medicine box, walked in front of Xiao Yunhe, bowed slightly to greet him.

"En, hurry up and check on my son's condition." Xiao Yunhe responded lightly, urging the doctor to check on Xiao Teng.

The doctor put the medicine box away first, then walked to Xiao Teng's bed, he put his three fingers lightly on Xiao Teng's wrist, and began to take his pulse seriously.

The doctor listened carefully to the pulse, but did not speak for a while, his brows were furrowed.

Seeing Langzhong's serious face, Qin couldn't help asking: "Langzhong, how is my son's condition? I heard from my servant that his behavior today is uncharacteristic. Is it caused by poisoning? Please find out."

When Qin's words were spoken, a stern look flashed in her eyes, if it was found out that Teng'er was caused by poisoning, she would definitely disturb the peace of the Marquis of Anguo's mansion, and dare to let Hu Meizi harm her son.

The doctor asked for the pulse, shook his head, and said slowly: "Madam, your son is not poisoned, but..." The doctor hesitated to say: "Your son has been indulging in wine and sex all year round, which has already drained his vitality, and his pulse is weaker than ordinary people Many, today, your son was burned by the fire, and he didn't get vented in time. I'm afraid he has burned his body, and he may not be able to do humane things in the future. The old man can only prescribe some recuperating prescriptions. .”
