Uncle Jiuhuang smiled bitterly as he looked at the bleeding wound.
He died under peonies, and he was also a romantic ghost. What does this mean to him? He took advantage of it and almost risked his own life. It was a loss-making business no matter what.
Uncle Nine Emperors took a breath, pulled out the white cloth from the secret compartment, and wrapped it around his waist several times. After making sure that there would be no more blood, Uncle Nine Emperors breathed a sigh of relief, tied a tight knot, and tied the middle coat in place.
After doing all this, Uncle Nine Emperors was panting from exhaustion, and his steps were a bit shaky. Uncle Nine Emperors leaned against the wall, breathing in his luck. After a while, Uncle Nine Emperors opened his eyes. There was unconcealable fatigue in his eyes, and his expression
He was also frighteningly pale. He didn't need to look in the mirror to understand that his condition was not good.
During this period, I had been injured one after another. The most important thing was that I didn't have a good rest after the injury. Even a hard-working person couldn't bear it.
Uncle Nine Emperors pulled a chair over and sat down heavily. It was not until the servants came to report that Feng Qingchen finished changing the medicine for the injured soldier that Uncle Nine Emperors stood up and put on his coat, and squeezed it hard before going out.
Check your cheeks and make sure your complexion is not too bad before going out.
The moment he pushed the door open, Uncle Jiu Huang's expression was as usual, and his black eyes were as calm as a dry well. When Feng Qingchen saw Uncle Nine Emperors, he didn't look at him carefully, but took a quick glance and got into the carriage.
Although she showed that she didn't care, what happened on the carriage still made her very embarrassed, and she didn't know how to face Uncle Nine Emperors for a moment.
The road back was unusually quiet. Feng Qingchen deliberately avoided the Nine Emperors Uncle, and the Nine Emperors Uncle had no energy to provoke Feng Qingchen. The two of them each occupied one side of the carriage and returned to the city leisurely.
Uncle Jiuhuang directly sent Feng Qingchen to the small courtyard in the West District. There was no accident. Outside the small courtyard where Feng Qingchen lived, several people were sneaking around the door. They saw Uncle Jiuhuang and Feng Qingchen appearing at the same time.
They hid themselves one by one, and left quietly with ambiguous looks in their eyes.
Feng Qingchen rolled her eyes. She knew that going in and out with Uncle Jiuhuang would definitely cause trouble. As expected, Feng Qingchen thanked him hastily and went straight back to the small courtyard without waiting for Uncle Jiuhuang to say more.
After entering the hospital, Feng Qingchen realized that she had forgotten to take down the medicine box.
She originally wanted to go back and get it, but after thinking about it, she decided to forget it. There were eyes outside and in the dark. She had to carry the medicine box in and out, but something would happen. It didn't matter if the medicine box was placed with Uncle Nine Emperors. Anyway, there was nothing too unusual.
.
As soon as Feng Qingchen stepped into the mansion, Tong Jue and Tong Yao followed him and reported what happened after Feng Qingchen left the city.
"Xiu, originally the influence of Mr. Yuan Xi's marriage proposal was weakening, but after the calligraphy competition ended today, rumors started to rise again, saying that Xiu won the prize because of the favor of Mr. Yuan Xi and Uncle Nine Emperors.
Calligraphy competition. Nowadays, there are rumors everywhere that Xiu Xiu won without any force and Su Wan lost unjustly."
"Xiu, a few extreme people got together to make trouble and asked you to compete with Su Wan again. They refused to accept it. Fortunately, the government sent people to suppress it, so it didn't have much impact."
"There are people watching outside the palace all the time, and there are some arrogant people who want to break in. Fortunately, there are guards from Prince Su's palace."
"Xiu, how should we deal with this matter? Do we want to refute the rumors?"
Don't blame those people outside for acting too much. You must know that Feng Qingchen's victory or defeat is related to the gambling game and their money. Although some people are incited by others, most people are clamoring for their own interests. It's really
They are not afraid if something goes wrong, after all, the law does not rule the crowd.
Feng Qingchen had tried her best to keep a low profile, but many things did not depend on her will. When things had developed to this point, Feng Qingchen was unable to change them.
Doing one's best and obeying fate has always been Feng Qingchen's code of conduct. Now that things have come to this, Feng Qingchen thinks that what he should do has been done, and the result is unsatisfactory and there is nothing he can do about it.
"Don't worry about this matter. Let them pass it on. You just need to ensure the safety of the house. After the competition is over, we will go to live outside the city for a while." If you can't offend me, you can't afford to hide. Things have developed to this point.
At this point, he would offend others anyway, and Feng Qingchen no longer wanted to cause any more trouble to himself.
Now, as long as Mr. Yuan Xi doesn't cause any trouble for her, she is not afraid anymore.
"Don't worry, Xiu, with me and Tong Jue here, this house is absolutely safe." Tong Yao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It is not that easy to reverse the direction of public opinion in the entire imperial city.
"Well, I leave the safety of the house to you. Boil the water. I want to take a bath." Feng Qingchen did not go back to the room, but went to the study. She had just changed the medicine for the patient and really didn't want to go back in dirty clothes.
Room.
"Yes, Xiu." Tong Jue went down immediately. Tong Yao cleaned the handkerchief and cleaned Feng Qingchen's hands. After Feng Qingchen sat down, Tong Yao took out a box from the treasure grid in the study.
"Xiu, this is what I found under the squat when I was cleaning the study today."
"What is it?" Feng Qingchen was sure that this thing was most likely left by Lan Jiuqing. He didn't want to look at it, but seeing Tong Yao's face looking a little strange, he decided to open it and take a look. As soon as he opened Feng Qingchen's
His expression changed, and he closed the brocade box with a "pop" sound.
"Who else knows about this besides you?" Feng Qingchen asked sharply, her eyes flashing with anger, but her anger was not directed at Tong Yao, but at that bastard Lan Jiuqing.
Bastard, bastard, what a huge bastard. I thought he was a good person, but I didn’t expect...
That bastard Lan Jiuqing actually took advantage of someone's danger and snatched her things. Huh...Lan Jiuqing, the grace of saving my life has been wiped out. If you hadn't taken my things, I wouldn't have been in danger.
Feng Qingchen gritted her teeth. If Lan Jiuqing were in front of her, she would definitely beat him up to vent her anger.
Apparently, the last incident in the bamboo forest was related to Lan Jiuqing. The last time she went to that bamboo forest, she was checking on the Duke of Zhen’s wife and the child. In the end, nothing came of it, and she was still unconscious in an inexplicable forest.
He fell down and lost his gun.
Feng Qingchen never believed that Lan Jiuqing just happened to pick up her gun. Lan Jiuqing was definitely there that day. Lan Jiuqing couldn't be the descendant of the legitimate son of Duke Zhen, right? He was almost the same age.
Feng Qingchen's face darkened, Tong Yao was startled, and knelt on the ground with a bang: "Xiu, no, no one else knows except me."
"Very good, go down. Remember, you didn't pick up anything in the study." Feng Qingchen warned.
If the incident was leaked, it would probably have no less impact than Zhentian Lei, which finally killed Li Xiang. Feng Qingchen really didn't want anything related to weapons to happen again.
"Yes." Tong Yao breathed a sigh of relief and secretly complained in her heart. Their family show is now becoming more and more powerful. They usually have a smile on their faces and look happy-go-lucky, but when they get serious and angry, they are extremely scary.
.
Feng Qingchen put it away and thought about Lan Jiuqing and the matter of Duke Zhenguo. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Lan Jiuqing was most likely the descendant of the legitimate son of Duke Zhenguo. Otherwise, how could he be like that?
By coincidence, I happened to appear at the temple where Mrs. Zhen Guogong lives.
When she thought of this possibility, Feng Qingchen felt that the world was really small, and the genuine descendants of Zhenguo Gongfu that she had been looking for everywhere were actually right next to her.
However, this move seems to be useless. Yilan Jiuqing's pride must disdain the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, and he will probably have to think of no other way to deal with the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.
Speaking of Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, Feng Qingchen thought of Yongchang Marquis Mansion again. Because of the competition between her and Su Wan, the execution of Yongchang Marquis Mansion became less noticeable.
Speaking of Yongchang Hou's Mansion, Feng Qingchen truly felt that she had done a good thing. If it weren't for her, Yongchang Hou would definitely continue to harm the people.
The Marquis of Yongchang was not much better if he could raise his son to be such a playboy. Not only did he bully men and dominate women, but he also brought harm to the ministers of the court.
In order to seize the wife of his subordinate, Marquis Yongchang accused him of being a remnant of the previous dynasty, causing the subordinate to confiscate his family and exterminate his family, while he openly took possession of his wife.
The Marquis of Yongchang and the Duke of Nazhen are the same as each other. The Duke of Zhen likes to play with little boys, while the Marquis of Yongchang likes to play with little girls and pregnant women. When the house was searched, a small dark room was found in the Yongchang Marquis' mansion. There were more than twenty people in the dark room.
A naked little girl.
The oldest of those little girls was twelve years old, and the youngest was only six years old. They were all sallow and thin, with dull eyes, stupid faces, and wounds all over their bodies. They were tired of being played by Marquis Yongchang and were locked there to die.
After knowing the news, Feng Qingchen's heart throbbed. She thought of Xiaozhi who died in the Bloody Guard Prison. The child begged her to avenge him at the cost of his eyes, but she never did it.
Feng Qingchen never thought that she was kind, but after she found out about this incident, she had no choice but to do nothing. She asked Tong Jue and Tong Yao to quietly buy a yard outside the city and collect the unclaimed property of Yongchang Hou Mansion.
The little girl bought them all and sent them one by one to rest outside the city.
After her competition with Su Wan is over, she will go to see them, and if possible, she will try to heal them. They are poor people like Xiao Zhi, but they are happier than Xiao Zhi, at least they are still alive.
Feng Qingchen sat in the study, thinking about these messy things. The more she thought about it, the worse she felt. Although she understood that such dark and cold-blooded things would happen in any era, she could not possibly control them all, but the premise was that she
If she didn't encounter him, she would never be able to stand by and watch. This had nothing to do with chivalry and kindness. She just didn't want her conscience to be disturbed.
It wasn't until Tong Jue came and told Feng Qingchen that her condition was better and she could take a bath, that Feng Qingchen withdrew her thoughts and stopped thinking about the things that upset her.
After bathing, it was time to eat. We ate a lot of snacks on Uncle Nine Emperor's carriage. Feng Qingchen didn't eat much for dinner. After using less than half of the bowl, he asked Tong Jue and Tong Yao to take it away.
Tong Jue and Tong Yao were a little worried. Their family Xiu usually ate less, and today she ate even less. Tong Jue wanted to persuade her, but Tong Yao pulled her and signaled her to stop talking.
Tong Jue asked Tong Yao what happened, but Tong Yao just shook her head and refused to say more.
Tong Yao guessed that their family Xiu's bad mood was probably related to the strange things in the study, but Xiu had told her not to say anything, so she couldn't.
Knowing that Feng Qingchen was in a bad mood, the two maids did not dare to say much. They packed up their things and went down. At the same time, they told the people in the house not to disturb Xiu if nothing happened.
Feng Qingchen walked around twice outside and didn't return to her room until dark. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Lan Jiuqing sitting in her room...
