Chapter 137: The Scapegoat

The fifth young master raised his legs and entered the house, and saw that there was a mess inside. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The info hanger was knocked down, the chair was smashed, and the square table was like a turtle with its belly turned up, huddled in the corner with its feet facing up. Even the coat she wore during the day was stamped with countless footprints and scattered on the floor next to the bed.

"Hmm!" the fifth young master nodded with satisfaction.

Previously, he still felt a little difficult to sing in his heart about the drama of heroes saving beauty, but he was afraid that he would not be able to deceive the shrewd girl. But looking at the situation in front of you, no one believes that there are no thieves in the house!

He tidied up his clothes again, and when he thought about it, he felt that it was wrong, and after a fierce fight, how could he be neatly dressed. He tore his clothes again, especially to reveal his delicate collarbones, and dimmed the oil lamp a little more.

Late at night, cold moon, dim lights, messy houses. A handsome man with extraordinary skills, a frightened little woman who needs comfort. If there is no such thing as a thunderbolt and a fire, how can it match this situation.

The more the fifth young master thought about it, the more he felt that he was extremely smart, and he actually came up with such a brilliant idea to play tricks on this stinky girl. He cleared his throat, showed what he thought was the most charming smile, and opened his mouth to call: "Flower catch, flower catch......"

The person in the quilt didn't react at all, it was still tightly covered, and the subtle snoring continued. The smile on the fifth young master's face couldn't help but stiffen, and he raised his voice again and said, "Flower catch fast, flower catch fast......"

It was still the same, if it weren't for the snoring of the person on the couch coming from the bed, he would have thought that it was a dead man lying inside.

The fifth young master had to raise his voice again and called: "Flower catch fast, flower catch fast....... " It's just that no matter how you hear it, it seems to be squeezed out of between your teeth.

Yan San outside the house couldn't help but probe in and mention: "Fifth Young Master, she has been poisoned by the thief's sweat medicine, you can't wake up like this." ”

The oil lamp crackled, and a small spark burst out, illuminating the gloomy handsome face of the fifth young master. He gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you come over with a bowl of cold water." ”

"Yes. Yan San hurriedly picked up the tea bowl on the ground, and there was still half a bowl of herbal tea left in it, and sent it to the fifth young master.

The fifth young master's eyes were shining, he held the tea bowl in one hand, pulled the futon with the other, and gently called in his mouth: "Catch flowers quickly, catch flowers quickly......

The futon was finally pulled open, and the people inside were curled up like shrimp, lying on their faces facing inside. The loose black hair spread all over the pillow, covering half of her cheeks.

Unfortunately, the light of the oil lamp was dim, and the thick green tent hanging from the bed obscured most of the light, and her face became hazy and blurry, making it difficult for him to see it really.

His gaze slipped quietly, and he inadvertently saw that the placket of her dress was somewhat loose, and her bare collarbone could be faintly glimpsed from the neckline. The fifth young master's little heart tightened, and a strange leak beat a beat. But I couldn't help but think of the pretty face of the person in front of me who was disgusted and happy during the day.

"Catch the flowers quickly, wake up!" The fifth young master's voice was full of narrowness, and there was a touch of tenderness in his tone. He hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out to brush the green silk from her face......

Yan San and Yan Liu at the door of the house are all deaf and clear-sighted, and the movements inside are naturally heard clearly. The fifth young master's tender call made him tense and shivered. He rubbed the goosebumps on his arm and whispered to Yan Liu: "The fifth young master is really good at acting, and this call is also a little numb......"

Before Yan San's words fell, he heard the fifth young master shout angrily from the room: "Who are you, why are you sleeping in this room?"

Yan San and Yan Liu glanced at each other, their hearts were shocked, and they hurriedly broke in. I happened to see the fifth young master's hand wave violently, and most of the bowl of herbal tea was splashed on the face of the person on the couch.

Wei Ze in the haze was splashed with a bowl of cold water, and he was dragged up from the couch and thrown on the cold floor.

The medicinal properties of the sweat medicine are quite heavy, and this room is the object of the female thief's key care, so Wei Ze will sleep like a dead pig. The whole house was going to be demolished, and I didn't know it.

It wasn't until he felt a pinprick-like stinging pain in his midriff that he completely regained his senses. He barely opened his eyes, and saw an extremely handsome boy in brocade in front of him, like a jealous man who had caught an adulterer, and was yelling at him angrily, spitting on Xingzi and spraying him in the face.

"Tell me, why are you in this room?"

Wei Ze was groggy and only felt that one head and two were big. Faced with this noble son's questioning, he smiled bitterly and closed his eyes weakly. The corners of his mouth were tightly pursed, and he refused to spit out a word.

County office

Hua Lianyue's face was pale, and she lay on the bed weakly. She had a wet handkerchief on her forehead, and a bowl of black potion emitting white smoke on the wooden table next to the collapse.

Huo Lianjue raised his hand to remove the handkerchief on her forehead, and Dashuang hurriedly came over to take it, and handed over a newly twisted piece. He shook his head and said, "The medicine has been put on hold, so let's drink the medicine first!"

"It's okay!" Dashuang put down the handkerchief and picked up the medicine bowl on the wooden table. Huo Lianjue carefully helped Hua Lianyue up, leaned against his chest, and then took the medicine bowl in his big hands, and carefully fed it spoonful by spoonful.

felt that she in his arms was like a red-hot stove, constantly bubbling out, and the melancholy in his eyes couldn't help but deepen a little.

Yin Che said on the side: "I was fine this morning, why did I come back and be sick like this?" She looked sideways at Xiaoshuang and asked in a low voice, "Where did you run this day?"

Xiao Shuang pursed his lips, quietly raised his eyes to look at Huo Lianjue's back, and then shook his head vigorously like a rattle. Before coming back, Hua Lianyue had repeatedly explained: because Yao Zihui's matter involved Hu Mansion, in order not to implicate Huo Lianjue, she must not let him know.

"You usually talk a lot, why are you dumb today!" Yin Che said a little puzzled when he saw that she was silent for a long time.

"No need to ask. Huo Lianjue fed another spoonful of medicine, and said lightly: "Before you come back, I have asked countless times." It's a pity that their lords and servants' mouths are very tight, and they refuse to spit out a word. ”

Dashuang had to smile and say, "Yin Zhutou, we really didn't go to any special places today, we just walked around the street casually." Unexpectedly, this spring rain didn't seem to be very fine, but it still wet the young lady's clothes. My young lady was infected with cold due to old age, so she was invaded by moisture and caused a cold attack. ”

Huo Lianjue glanced at her lightly, and the chill in her eyes made her shut up. Of course, these words were also explained to her before returning to the yamen. It's a pity that looking at the appearance in front of him, Huo Lianjue doesn't seem to believe it too much, but he is helpless.

"Can you catch flowers soon?" Zhong Lingxiu's voice came from outside.

"What is she doing so late?" Yin Che stood up and said, "I'll go out and take a look, and send her away by the way." ”

Huo Lianjue didn't even move his eyelids, and continued to feed Hua Liyue and drink medicine steadily.

The bowl of medicine had not yet been filled, and her little face had turned from pale to crimson. Dashuang tried her forehead with the back of her hand, feeling a hint of moisture, she said in surprise: "Sweaty, great, the heat on Miss Sweaty will subside." ”

Huo Lianjue handed the empty bowl to Dashuang, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the remaining medicine stains on the corner of Hua Lianyue's mouth, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't want to say where you went today, I don't force it, I think this is what Yue'er meant." It's just that I want to tell you a few words, the one outside the house, although he looks good, only tells three points of the truth when he meets people. You follow Yue'er, but you have to help her watch out. Don't be stupid, she will believe whatever people say. ”

The big pair and the little pair glanced at each other, and a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes at the same time. Dashuang hesitated for a moment before nodding and admitting: "Although our young lady looks shrewd on her face, she is actually very delicate, and she likes to fight unevenly. No one can persuade her to make a fuss, but we will watch her carefully. ”

"That's good!" Huo Lianjue let go of his hand and stuffed her into the quilt again. He instructed Dashuang: "Go to the kitchen and boil some hot water for her to bubble up, so that the sweat is refreshing!"

"Yes. ”

Dashuang hurriedly went out, just as Yin Che sent Zhong Lingxiu away and returned to the house.

Huo Lianjue was sitting on the edge of the collapse and carefully wiped the sweat beads from his forehead with a dry handkerchief for Hua Lianyue. Hua Lianyue hummed uneasily, her head grinding over the soft coral pillow, as if she was extremely uncomfortable. The long eyelashes have been trembling slightly, like butterfly wings coming out of the chrysalis, wanting to open them but not having the strength.

But her hand came out of the futon and swept it a few times, just touching a corner of his clothes. She subconsciously held it tightly in her hand, like a child grabbing a beloved toy, and refused to let go. He lowered his eyes and glanced at it, his face that had been tense all night was actually loosened, and a hint of warmth flashed in his deep eyes.

Somehow, Yin Che looked at this scene and actually remembered the seven days he spent with Xiao Fengnan. At first, when he was groggy, he was like a fragile child, always grabbing the corners of her clothes and not letting go. It's a pity that as his injuries gradually improved, the initial dependence gradually turned into indifference, and in the end, it disappeared directly, making her unable to find her.

finally waited for him to come back, but there was already another beauty by his side, and every time he thought of her, he couldn't help but feel sad.

Xiaoshuang looked at her and said curiously: "Yin Zhutou, why are your eyes red?"

Yin Che raised his hand and quickly wiped it on his face, and said with a forced smile: "Of course, I can't see Lang's concubine, and my eyes are red with envy and jealousy." ”

Xiaoshuang sighed twice and was silent.

Yin Che raised his eyebrows, looked at the silent Huo Lianjue and said, "Don't you ask Miss Zhong what happened to Miss Zhong so late to find the moon girl?"

Huo Lianjue's thick eyebrows frowned slightly, looking at Hua Liyue, whose cheeks were flushed and groggy on the bed. He reached out and slowly pulled her fingers away, pulling the corner of his coat out. Tummed the quilt for her, he stood up and said in a deep voice: "I thought that if I ignored her, she would naturally retreat from the difficulty, but who knew that she would hit Yue'er with her idea again." The official is going to ask her for himself what she wants to do. ”

He stood up and wanted to leave, but Hua Liyue on the couch buried her face in the coral soft pillow and murmured in a low voice: "Even brother, I'm so hot, my head hurts......."

Huo Lianjue paused, and immediately looked back. I saw that she barely opened her eyes, her eyes were red, and she muttered softly: "My head really hurts......."

Huo Lianjue's expression was obviously a little surprised, and she didn't know what secret there was between her and Zhong Lingxiu, in such an uncomfortable situation, when she heard that she was going to find out, she actually forcibly supported and called herself.

A hint of confusion flashed in his eyes, and he finally turned around and sat down on the side of the bed. He shook her hand and comforted: "Don't be afraid, when the fever subsides, the head will not hurt!"

Hua Lianyue smiled reluctantly and muttered vaguely: "I'm not afraid of fever, I'm only afraid of chills." Especially the kind of cold that goes deep into the bone marrow. The blood in the whole body seemed to be frozen to stop flowing, and the body stiffened inch by inch, and I couldn't feel anything but the pain of pins and needles, and I couldn't move......"

"Yue'er, stop talking, since you have a headache, close your eyes and rest. Huo Lianjue couldn't understand her words, he reached out and probed her forehead, the heat seemed to be a little lower than before, but he still felt hot. Apparently she was burned out and babbling gibberish.

"I'd better go wringe a hot handkerchief to wipe her!" Yin Che felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she muttered, and when she turned around, she turned around and bit her lip tightly and silently shed tears on her face.

She hurriedly pulled Xiaoshuang by the hand and said, "Don't stick here, come with me to get hot water!" She pulled Xiaoshuang and hurried out of the room.

Hua Lianyue and Huo Lianjue didn't notice the departure of the two, she tried to hook the corners of her lips and show him a sweet smile, but the smile was extremely ethereal. It's like the dew of the morning sun, the rainbow after the rain, the mist on the lake, beautiful but fleeting. Huo Lianjue's heart throbbed with a little pity. He held her hand gently, his thick eyebrows frowned tightly, and his handsome face was slightly pale.

Huo Lianjue felt her hand move slightly, and hurriedly said, "What do you want, just say it." ”

The night breeze swayed, like an uninvited guest out of sight, blowing in through the cracks in the window lattice. The clear candlelight shook gently, reflecting her face full of pink and tender red, which was much better than her usual complexion, and had a little more demeanor that a young girl should have.

She shook her head, tried to raise her hand, put her cold fingers on his frowning brows, and muttered, "Brother Lian, when I first saw you, you loved to frown. Now that I'm sick, you're still frowning. Now that you're young, if you're my father's age, wouldn't the wrinkles on your eyebrows be enough to trap flies? ”

Huo Lianjue was stunned, and then chuckled: "Then you take care of yourself, don't let Brother Lian worry about it." He muttered vaguely, looked down and imprinted a kiss on her forehead, trying to find her lips again. She hurriedly turned her face away and muttered dissatisfiedly, "Don't, I'm still sick! ”

Huo Lianjue smiled lowly and said, "It's okay, I don't dislike it!" He lowered his head again.

Hua Lianyue only felt that her body was light and fluttering, and she had exhausted the strength she had accumulated by touching his eyebrows before. At this moment, she didn't even have the strength to push him, so she could only hold on to his placket tightly, passively bearing his intimacy.

Fortunately, he still cared about the patient in front of her, and only touched her cherry lips like a butterfly, and he was reluctant to leave. She kept holding her breath, her heart was beating like a drum, and a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes.
