Chapter 111
Lin Qingyang wanted to reveal Xinyue's identity directly, but he couldn't seem to explain why he would know.
After thinking about it, he could only help Xinyue deal with the wound, and tentatively said: "When Xinyue came to apologize to me, we chatted for a while. Although she didn't say it clearly, her identity seemed a bit complicated. She is not from a family. Luo was trafficked, but because he had an agreement with Boss Xie, he didn't come here through a business, he probably ran out to take risks mischievously, she must not be the young lady of someone from Xiyue Kingdom."
Chu Lishu's expression really changed.
Lin Qingyang clicked so far, he knew that with Chu Lishu's expression, he should investigate Xinyue's identity, so that he could return to the plot.
When dealing with Xinyue's wound, he didn't know how to deal with it. He felt that bleeding from the head was a big deal. Lin Qingyang was a little worried. Chu Lishu's blow was quite heavy. "Let's find the old bustard. You need to see a doctor. Don't make this girl stupid."
"No, this situation cannot be explained, and it will be unclear when the time comes."
"Then you can't leave her alone like this, in case something goes wrong with the wound..."
Chu Lishu frowned slightly, thinking about everything Xinyue saw, it was absolutely impossible to leave her at will, because her identity was doubtful, and she couldn't kill her for the time being, but now he couldn't stay for long, and Lu Shi was also injured, just now Eunuch Hai Coming to inform them to leave means that the other side is ready, so they must leave.
Chu Lishu looked hesitant, and Lin Qingyang could only wait for him to make a decision, but now he couldn't bear to see the bandages on his hands that had been loosened repeatedly. Chu Lishu's hand wanted to treat the wound again.
Chu Lishu's hand bones are beautiful, like chalcedony, and the skin is white and crystal clear. It's a pity that the middle of the palm of this torn hand is bloody and completely pierced. However, according to the male lead's physique, it won't get better in the future. There is a scar, but now it looks really painful.
Lin Qingyang frowned and looked at the wound, then couldn't help but look up at Chu Lishu.
But Chu Lishu just looked at him quietly, with a concentrated expression, there was only gentleness between his brows and eyes, but there was no trace of pain.
Lin Qingyang asked reflexively, "Does it hurt?"
It was only after asking that he realized that this kind of injury was nothing more than a minor injury to the male protagonist. How could the male protagonist say that it hurts? He has always been able to bear it, as if he is not sensitive to pain.
Chu Lishu opened his mouth, "It hurts..."
"I knew you... hurt?" Lin Qingyang almost bit his own tongue, but the hero said it hurts when he was awake, and his tone was so soft, "Then... I'll take it easy."
Chu Lishu nodded, motioning for Lin Qingyang to continue.
Lin Qingyang carefully applied the bandage again, as gently as possible, and when the bandage was finished, his back was covered in sweat.
Suddenly a hand touched his cheek, Lin Qingyang froze for a moment, and heard Chu Lishu's deep and hoarse voice, "Does it hurt?"
His hands didn't stop here.Cheeks, forehead, neck, indeed those places are all aching, probably because there are too many painful places, and they are all wounds without blood, so Lin Qingyang can't tell where it hurts, and he doesn't care.
But can the male protagonist stop touching?He feels weird.
Lin Qingyang felt uncomfortable for a while, and said hurriedly: "It's okay...cough cough." I don't know what happened, but when I got short of breath, I started coughing.
Chu Lishu's expression changed slightly in an instant, and he said solemnly, "Take off your clothes."
Lin Qingyang: ... "Huh?"
"Let me see where you are still injured. The other party knows martial arts. You don't care about some places. If you suffer from internal injuries, you will suffer later." Chu Lishu said.
Although what the other party said made sense, it felt awkward to ask Lin Qingyang to undress in front of Chu Lishu and show him.
"It's okay, I was probably kicked in the chest by the guard, but I'm sure there is no fracture... I'll go back and see the doctor..." Lin Qingyang declined.
But Chu Lishu was not at ease, could the doctor understand internal injuries better than a person who knew martial arts like him?
"It's okay, let me see it first, so I know it well." Chu Lishu insisted.
Lin Qingyang instinctively stretched out his hand to cover his collar, but felt that this action was inexplicable, they were all men, what's the matter?It's not a big deal. Could it be that after being kissed, I have too much self-awareness?
Lin Qingyang coughed, changed the action of grabbing the collar into the action of pulling the collar, and aggressively tore off the clothes, exposing his chest, and raised his neck, "Look, look, it's just a general bruise. .”
Sure enough, Chu Lishu leaned forward and took a closer look. There were a few bruises, but the situation was not serious. When looking down, because the clothes were not completely pulled apart and part of it was blocked, Chu Lishu naturally He reached out and pulled Lin Qingyang's skirt hanging on his shoulders to the sides again.
At that moment, Lin Qingyang felt his heart tighten as if someone had ripped off his clothes, and suddenly a sense of shame welled up.
But at this moment, there was a sudden movement behind him, probably Xinyue woke up, Lin Qingyang panicked, and wanted to pull up his clothes quickly as if guilty of guilt.
The two of them were sitting by the bed, and when Xinyue woke up, she jumped up vigorously. After all, she was still in a dangerous state before she fell into a coma, so when she woke up now, she instinctively wanted to run away. In this series of rushing postures, she ignored the people beside the bed, pushed Lin Qingyang who was in the way, and jumped off the bed.
When he came back to his senses and looked back, he saw Lin Qingyang, whose clothes were half uncovered, pressing on another man.
Xinyue gasped and froze.
And Lin Qingyang was also frozen. He looked at Chu Lishu under him, and his lips that were close at hand. His brain suddenly became hot and he quickly got up.
My mind is full of beautiful words and greeting systems, this is too much of a coincidence, why do I feel that more and more routine plots are happening to me?
The system said it was not its fault.
Lin Qingyang quickly put his clothes back together, and Chu Lishu also sat up silently at this moment.
At this time, a sigh came from the air.
"You really have such a relationship!"
Lin Qingyang's skin tightened immediately: What's the matter?It's okay, don't talk nonsense!
Lin Qingyang instantly realized who the speaker was. This might be one of the male lead's future wives. No matter whether they succeed this time, they can't make the female lead mistakenly think that the male lead is a broken sleeve!
Immediately looking at Xinyue, she hurriedly denied, "What's the matter? Don't make jokes!"
Xinyue frowned suspiciously and said: "Why deny it? If you don't have this kind of relationship, why are you working hard for him, and didn't you admit that you have broken sleeves before? Don't worry, I don't think this kind of thing is disgusting. We also have them in our country. But you can’t do this kind of thing by the side when someone is unconscious, what kind of hobby! Sure enough, you Dazhou people dare to play with anything.”
Compared with Da Zhou, Xiyue is conservative. After Xinyue came to the capital and stayed in this kind of place, she naturally learned a lot, so she defaulted to an explanation for the current situation.
Lin Qingyang's face turned red.Fucked and totally misunderstood.The system must not judge the mission as a failure, the points he earned with great difficulty.
"You really misunderstood. We are cousins. We are relatives who naturally have to protect each other. Just now you suddenly jumped out of bed crazily and pushed me. Have you forgotten?" Lin Qingyang said righteously.
After all, Xinyue was still innocent. When Lin Qingyang said that, she really thought she had misunderstood.
Chu Lishu frowned and looked at Lin Qingyang, feeling displeased. Even if they couldn't be together, he didn't want to be rejected so decisively by Lin Qingyang, "Cousin, why are you explaining so much to her?"
Can you not explain?Brother, you don't want your wife anymore?
Lin Qingyang smiled dryly, Xinyue frowned and looked at Chu Lishu, touching her head that still hurts, "You...what's the situation now, will you suddenly go crazy, we were beaten so badly by you just now."
Lin Qingyang was afraid that Xinyue would reveal what he had been peeping at, so he quickly interjected, first gave a formal introduction to the two, and then explained: "My cousin was killed by an adulterer, he didn't mean it, and he's healed now Now, I really thank you just now, without you, my cousin and I would have an accident."
Xinyue was quite refreshed, and waved her hands and said, "You all have helped me before, we people in Xiyue Kingdom know how to repay you, so don't worry about such a trivial matter."
"But it is our fault that you were injured. We are responsible for your injury, and we will find you the best doctor to treat you, so as not to leave you with sequelae." Lin Qingyang suddenly noticed something .
"However, things here are more troublesome. You are still from Xiyue Kingdom. If you are involved in a murder case, it may not be very good, so we need to keep everything today secret. If you believe that I am not a bad person, I invite You go to my house to stay temporarily, and come back after the injury is cured and the things here have subsided, and I will treat you as a distinguished guest, do you think it is okay?"
Chu Lishu suddenly looked at Lin Qingyang, and Lin Qingyang quickly gave a hint with his eyes.
In fact, he knew in his heart that Chu Lishu was worried that Xinyue would stay here alone, otherwise he would not have hesitated so much just now. Chu Lishu needs time to investigate Xinyue's identity before he can determine the countermeasures. Now Chunxiang Building is no longer Chu Lishu. Yes, so the new moon cannot be managed, so the best thing to do now is to bring this instability element home.
Chu Lishu paused, and understood that this was a good idea, so she didn't stop it.
At first, she thought it would take a lot of talking, but when Xinyue heard these suggestions, she just thought for a while before agreeing directly, which made Lin Qingyang and Chu Lishu stunned.
"You... You trust others too easily." Lin Qingyang was really a little dumbfounded at the little princess's behavior.
"Aren't you a person with status and status? I told my mother that I was invited by you to perform at home. Is it possible for me to disappear, and if there is a murder here, it will definitely attract attention. I can't be paid attention to. So I'll hide with you for a while, and recuperate." After Xinyue's head said simply, she still felt that what she said made sense.
The corners of Lin Qingyang's mouth twitched. It was really lucky that the Princess of the New Moon was able to come to the Great Zhou Dynasty safely from Xiyue Kingdom.This is a silly girl who thinks she is smart, but is actually very simple.Fortunately, they are not bad people.
Lin Qingyang smiled and said, "Okay, then we'll set off soon, is it convenient for you?"
Xinyue nodded, "I'll go talk to my mother, and then I'll pack up and wait for you at the door. See you later." Xinyue was as excited as a child who was about to go on a trip. Regardless of the injury on her head, she jumped out up.
Lin Qingyang shook his head.
"Cousin wants to take her to another courtyard?" Chu Lishu asked.
"What else? You can't go to Hou's Mansion, it's not our territory that's insecure. Besides, there are mothers and elder sisters in the other courtyard, so it's more convenient for them to entertain Xinyue." Lin Qingyang turned his head and looked over, "You... Should I go back to the Marquis Mansion, or..."
Chu Lishu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I still have things to do, so I'll live in the Hou Mansion first, your side..." Today's affairs are not perfect in all aspects, he is worried that there will be loopholes, if it attracts If he is in trouble, being with Lin Qingyang will put him in danger.
"Well, you are busy with your work, I have nothing to do, just stay at home to recuperate, don't worry about being busy, you still have injuries." This time Lin Qingyang accepted decisively, who told us With a lot of points, he should be so arrogant, and... what happened with the male lead just now, he felt that he needed a little time to adjust.For straight men, this is an inner wound that needs healing.
Then the two left the Golden Phoenix Building. Before leaving, Lin Qingyang looked at the two closed rooms, wondering how Chu Lishu would arrange things here.
The thrilling night was finally over, at the gate of Jinfeng Building, Xinyue who had changed clothes was waiting for them.
After getting into the carriage, Xinyue realized that they were not walking together, and asked curiously.
Lin Qingyang explained briefly.
"So it's to accompany my mother to recuperate, you are so filial." As she spoke, Xinyue, who was originally excited, suddenly became sentimental again, "I miss home."
About 16 years old is still a bit young, Lin Qingyang comforted her like a younger sister for a while, Xinyue diverted her attention again, and began to say excitedly: "I haven't gone out to play well these days when I come here. , You said you would entertain me."
Lin Qingyang smiled and said: "No problem, but you must first make sure that your head injury is not serious."
It was already very late when we returned to the other hospital, and the family members were all asleep, only a few servants, He Shun, were waiting.
Xinyue had already been exhausted due to blood loss, and was so tired that she fell asleep. The carriage couldn't wake up when it arrived at the door. Lin Qingyang had no choice but to carry him out of the carriage and send him all the way back to the guest room, and then called Shuncai to find the doctor.
Shun Cai closed his jaw that almost fell from shock, he had no time to ask, so he could only wake up the old doctor first.
The old doctor came cursing again, but when he saw a young girl, his eyes widened and he turned his head to glare at Lin Qingyang.
"What do you want me to do? See patients!" Lin Qingyang asked in confusion.
The old doctor gave him a hard look, then kicked him out, and called a maid to help.
Outside the hospital, Shuncai finally waited for the opportunity to ask about the girl's background. Lin Qingyang could only explain that he got into trouble in the Golden Phoenix Building and caused the girl to be injured, so he took the girl to his home to recuperate. He was considered a friend and should not be neglected.
Shuncai was a little suspicious at first, but when he heard Chu Lishu's name also appeared, he suddenly became enlightened. Sure enough, the young master still couldn't help but look for young master Chu, but at this moment, young master Chu didn't come. But came back with a girl, could it be that the young master and young master Chu were having a bad time?The young master wanted to test young master Chu and made such a fuss?Then bring a man, bring a woman back, will it be effective?
It's not because Shuncai has a rich imagination, but because Lin Qingyang suddenly brought a young and beautiful woman back to the other courtyard, everyone would be suspicious, but for those who don't know the inside story, it's much easier to doubt.
So when the doctor came out, he would roll his eyes to the sky, how can a serious young master casually bring a woman back in the middle of the night, behaving badly.However, I explained the situation conscientiously. For minor injuries, it will be fine after a few days of recuperating and replenishing blood.
Lin Qingyang asked the doctor for some medicine for bruises, and then put the old man back to rest.
After arranging for servants to take care of Xinyue, he went back to his courtyard to rest.But they didn't know that Xinyue became a big news in the other courtyard, which attracted everyone's attention. When he woke up the next day, he would find that the news that he brought a woman back late at night had already spread to everyone in the other courtyard. A corner is up.
On the other side, in the middle of the night, a person appeared at the gate of Dali Temple. Shaoqing, who had been staying up all night in charge of investigating the tribute circulation case, received news that a father-in-law was visiting at the gate.
When I went out, I saw that it was Eunuch Hai. Eunuch Hai came to kill relatives righteously and sued Mr. Wang.
Shaoqing quickly invited people in, and soon learned the truth about the tribute circulation case from Eunuch Hai.
It turns out that Director Wang has been taking advantage of his position to embezzle imperial tributes and resell them. The imperial servant of Li Ji's pawnshop outside the palace, the head of Zhang's caravan, and Captain Zhao of the Imperial City Army are all under his command. People have built a complete commercial line for selling stolen goods, so it is so difficult for them to investigate.
Eunuch Hai collected a large amount of evidence, but he did not dare to report it in the palace, fearing that he would be killed if he could not reach the emperor. This time, taking advantage of the intensity of the investigation, Director Wang ran out to deal with the aftermath himself, so Eunuch Hai had a chance to slip away Acting alone, he came to Dali Temple to sue.
Shaoqing also doubted Eunuch Hai's original intention at the beginning, but Eunuch Hai followed the idea conveyed by Lv Shi before, saying that because he knew that Shaoqing would find out about them soon, Eunuch Hai found out that Mr. Wang intended to frame him. To save his life, in order not to suffer innocent injustice, he can only take risks.
Looking at the ironclad evidence submitted by Eunuch Hai, even where they hid the goods, Shaoqing was [-]% convinced, and immediately sent someone to catch the thief.
Eunuch Hai also told Shaoqing that the purpose of Mr. Wang's coming out tonight was actually to silence him. In order to protect himself, he was going to kill the other three people. If he rushed now, he might have time to catch them alive.
Shaoqing immediately rushed to Jinfenglou with his people.
As a result, as soon as they arrived, they saw people escaping one after another, and smoke was rising from the Golden Phoenix Tower.
The Imperial City Army who received the notice of the flood also rushed over, and finally even the people from the government office came, and there were countless crowds of onlookers for a while.
The third floor of the Jinfeng Tower was flooded with water, and the fire was very intense. When it was extinguished, the entire third floor of that group of buildings was almost completely burned, and many people died. When the burned and deformed bodies were carried out one by one, The bustard's face turned green.
The fire was too big, and the cause of the water leakage was unclear, but when they found that there was only one young eunuch among them, Shaoqing became anxious and began to investigate and interrogate overnight.In the early morning, the matter was still handed over to the emperor.
Eunuch Hai was also sent back for interrogation.
In the end, because the evidence submitted by Eunuch Hai is solid, those people were indeed killed and then burned, including those who Mr. Wang wanted to silence, but if Mr. Wang was not seen, it can basically be concluded that they were murdered and silenced, and both sides suffered. , found that the matter might be exposed, so he destroyed the evidence at the scene and absconded with the money.
The government immediately posted an announcement and began to catch Mr. Wang, but learned that when the city gate opened early in the morning, someone of a similar size left the city.
Now the talk of running away is really confirmed.
Eunuch Hai, who made great contributions in reporting and collecting evidence, was promoted as a matter of course and became the chief executive.Really, as Chu Lishu promised, he began to take over one of the three major eunuch forces in the palace.
It's just that Director Hai, who had just received the imperial edict, was summoned by Director Ning.
