Chapter 53

Although there were only four of them on the surface, it was impossible for Shen Yu not to bring any of them, just let people follow him from a distance, and his people soon came to him.

Originally, Shen Ji and Zhao Zhen wanted to leave a few more alive, but they didn't want these people to be dead, and when they saw that the general trend was coming, they committed suicide one after another, and it was too late to stop them.

Lu Ming's injuries were not serious, but he fainted, Zhao Zhen handed over the people to the guards, and then squatted down to check a few dead soldiers who committed suicide, they all died of swallowing poison, bleeding from the seven orifices, and they died thoroughly, and there was no special emblem on their bodies.

Zhao Zhen stood up and said to Shen Ji: "Take everyone back to the house, and check the □□ they swallowed, as well as their clothes and weapons." ”

Shen Yu stopped: "My father-in-law is old, don't alarm him about this matter, I will bring these people back to the army and send competent people to find out." ”

Zhao Zhen thought about it, if his father knew that they were assassinated, he would inevitably have to worry, he was older and more worried, not as bold as when he was young, this matter should not alarm him, so he nodded.

In this way, today's outing is also over, and the group quickly returned to the city and sent Lu Ming to a medical center for treatment, his injury was not serious, but the skin and flesh were cut, because the wound was a little long, and the blood flowed more.

Zhao Zhen frowned and glanced at Lu Ming, who was unconscious on the bed, and said to the doctor: "Doctor, why is he unconscious?" Is there really no poison on the wound? ”

The doctor in Beijing had never seen any strong winds and waves, so he said disapprovingly: "It's not poisonous, it's just scared, and it's time to wake up in a while." ”

This reason really made Zhao Zhen gain insight, and anyone else could be stunned? She looked at Lu Ming and shook her head, how could he still have the courage to block the sword for her with this guts? Should we say that he is loyal, or should I say that he is reckless?

Zhao Zhen pulled Shen Ji's sleeve, made a look at him, and walked out of the house first.

Shen Yu instructed Shen Mingzhou to take care of Lu Ming, and followed Zhao Zhen out.

Shen Mingzhou looked back at his father's back and frowned: Why does his father, who has always been majestic, always have a kind of connivance in front of his little cousin?

When Shen Yu walked out, Zhao Zhen had already stood under the shelf in the courtyard, which was used for drying medicine, covering a shade and filling the brain with the fragrance of medicine.

After Shen Yu approached, she said, "Zicheng, have you made a feud in the court?" Those people seem to be coming for you. ”

The black-clothed men obviously focused their attacks on Shen Ji, and she was secondary, and Shen Mingzhou and Lu Ming ignored it, so the problem was Shen Ji, but if it was said that the generals who could compete with Shen Ji in the current dynasty were only son-in-law Fu Yuan, but Fu Yuan's child was not this kind of person who would make a trick, and there was no need to assassinate Shen Ji.

Shen Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said gloomily: "I have only returned to Beijing not long ago, how can I make enemies with others?" If there is a grudge, it is only him. His eyes were on her as he spoke, clearly meaningful.

Zhao Zhen immediately understood that he was referring to Chen Zhao, and shook his head: "No, he won't deal with you, besides, how can there be any deep hatred between you?" Why did he come to assassinate you? ”

Shen Ji has always been hostile to Chen Zhao, which is actually to blame her, at that time she had a grudge against Chen Zhao in her heart, and after accumulating for a long time, she would want to find someone to talk to, Shen Ji was still an ignorant child at that time, and he was the closest to her, and occasionally said a few words to him, and later she found that the child had obvious hostility towards Chen Zhao, and began to deliberately find fault in front of Chen Zhao, so she never said to him again, but since then Shen Ji has been hostile to Chen Zhao that cannot be dissolved.

As soon as Zhao Zhen defended Chen Zhao, Shen Yu was not calm, and ridiculed each other: "Is it true?" Before I could tell who it was, the eldest sister thought it was him, didn't the eldest sister doubt him as much as I did? ”

Zhao Zhen frowned at him and scolded: "Zicheng! Don't be rash! It is a big deal that someone is not good for you, and your top priority is to find out who is going to be bad for you, rather than judging by suspicion, you are no longer a child, and you must be steady! ”

Shen Yu gritted his teeth and lowered his head: "Zicheng respectfully follows the teachings of the eldest sister. After that, he raised his head, his face was already calm, "Eldest sister, I will go back to the army to investigate first, and then send someone to pick up the eldest sister and return home." ”

Zhao Zhen nodded, and said again: "The stakes are very high, be cautious." ”

Shen Ji responded and strode away.

Zhao Zhen looked at his back and sighed, looking for an opportunity to let him and Chen Zhaobing release their suspicions, it is not a way to be so hostile.

When Zhao Zhen returned to the house, Lu Ming had already woken up, and when he saw her struggling to sit up, he pulled the wound for a while, and his face was full of pain, but he still covered the wound and said eagerly: "Miss, is it hurt?" ”

Zhao Zhen shook his head, took an unknown herb and knocked Lu Ming's head: "Even if you don't block that, I won't hurt it." Said solemnly, "You will remember in the future, there is never a shortage of capable people around me, don't be a hero if you don't have that ability, you will only add trouble to others, if you continue to be so self-conscious in the future, don't stay by my side." Although these words were a little hurtful, Zhao Zhen didn't want this to happen a second time.

Lu Ming was stunned when he heard this, and then he repented, and hurriedly got up and knelt down, Zhao Zhen held him down, but he was still afraid of breaking his heart, and said gently: "I don't blame you, I just tell you, you are okay today, if there is something, how should I explain to your father and brother?" I understand your loyalty, but I don't have to do such sacrificed things in the future, and I, Zhao Jin, never need anyone to die for me. ”

Lu Ming didn't expect that his sacrifice for protection was exchanged for the reprimand of the young lady, and he was puzzled and resentful, but finally lowered his eyes obediently and said: "Miss's words, Lu Ming remembered ......"

Zhao Zhen looked at him and sighed: "You have to remember that no one's life in this world is more important than your own, if a person does not value himself, how can he be cherished by others." ”

Zhao Zhen is not a person who likes the foolish loyalty of the people around her, while they are loyal to her, she also hopes that these people will have their own thoughts, do everything according to their ability, and avoid such unnecessary sacrifices.

Lu Ming raised his head, still a little stubborn, and said, "But Miss, I can't watch you go into danger?" If something happens to Miss in front of my eyes, I will be uneasy for the rest of my life......"

Zhao Zhen was also very helpless when she heard it, if she wasn't moved by his loyalty, she wouldn't have bothered to say these words to him, forget it, he was still injured at the time, let's talk about it slowly in the future.

"You should take care of your injuries first."

Shen Mingzhou, who had not spoken, said suddenly: "The premise of wanting to protect a person is that you yourself must be strong enough, if you are not strong enough, you must be strong, it will only cause trouble to others." ”

Zhao Zhen glanced at Shen Mingzhou appreciatively after listening: My nephew's summary ability is very good.

Shen Mingzhou didn't accept her appreciation, and educated him seriously: "Gugu, even if you are strong in martial arts, you are also a girl, don't rush to the front in everything, you have to protect yourself first to be true." ”

This kid also taught her a lesson, Zhao Zhen smiled: "Let's talk about this after Brother Mingzhou defeats me." ”

Shen Mingzhou's face darkened, and he snorted and strode out.

Zhao Zhen looked at his back quite funny, felt that his sleeve was tugged, Zhao Zhen turned around, saw Lu Ming and said seriously: "Miss, I also want to learn martial arts......"

Zhao Zhen knew why he wanted to learn martial arts, and hit him unceremoniously: "It's late, and learning martial arts is not useful just by hard work, do you see that Mingzhou can't compare to me when he learned martial arts since he was a child?" Even if you practice martial arts day and night, you won't be able to protect me, so it's better to make a few new dishes to fill my stomach. ”

Lu Ming was a little disappointed when he heard this, but he quickly raised his head and said firmly: "I will definitely make a few more dishes that Miss likes!" "It looks like I've been persuaded to do so.

Zhao Zhen smiled at him: "Good." ”

Following.

What I never expected was that Zhao Zhen, who had been "eating Ma Ma Xiang with a good body", suddenly fell ill, dizzy and feverish, and her spirit was not good, she originally wanted to insist on going to Shenlongwei as usual, but when she was eating breakfast, she was discovered by the careful grandmother Sun, and when she touched her forehead, she was shocked, and suddenly everyone in the house knew that she was sick, including her father, who said that she would not let her go to Shenlongwei.

Zhao Zhen could only send someone to Shenlongwei to ask for leave, stay in bed and recuperate at home, took the medicine concocted by the doctor, and fell asleep for a day.

When she was almost awake, there were two more faces in front of the bed, which were granddaughter and orchid.

She sat up and looked at them with some surprise: "Why are you here?" ”

Fu Ningxuan sat on the edge of her bed with a smile: "I heard that my little cousin is sick, and we came to visit my little cousin after training!" Impressed? ”

Zhao Zhen didn't appreciate it, and taught the two of them a lesson: "How can you go out of the camp without permission for three days of training?" Go back! ”

Fu Ningxuan pursed her lips when she heard this: "We are out of the camp in the bright light, and my brother and General Shen have agreed!" ”

The orchid next to him nodded hurriedly and agreed: "Yes, yes, I heard that the county lord came to visit you, so I begged the county lord to come with me." As she spoke, she took out a packet of things from her bosom and gave it to her, "This is my family's ancestral medicine, it is designed to cure your illness, and it will be effective after taking it three times!" ”

Before Zhao Zhen could pick it up, Fu Ningxuan took it over and looked at it first: "I said, why do you have to go home first, you took this?" The people who treated my little cousin were all famous doctors in Beijing, where do you need a prescription in the countryside? Don't spoil my little cousin! ”

When Orchid heard this, she realized that she was doing this too much, Zhao Jin is the young lady of the Guogong Mansion, and the people who treat her are the best doctors, where do you need her prescription......

"What the county lord said is, then don't give this medicine to Jin'er......" As she spoke, she reached out and took it back, wanting to put it back in her arms.

Zhao Zhen saw the lost appearance of the orchid, took pity on her kindness, and stopped: "Thank you Dahua for your kindness, since you have brought it, you can't take it for nothing, it doesn't hurt to give it a try." After that, he shouted outside, "Dongxiang, take this medicine and fry it." ”

Seeing that she was willing to accept it, Orchid smiled and said enthusiastically: "I'll fry it!" I'm going to fry! I'm the best at decoction of my medicine! With that, he ran out of the door with the medicine.

Bang dang!

It's really unfortunate that the orchid was reckless, and was bumping into Lu Ming, who was coming over with porridge, and the porridge bowl fell to the ground, shattered, and suddenly the ground was in a mess.

Orchid hurriedly said guiltily: "I'm sorry! Sorry! It's all me who was careless! ”

Lu Ming pulled the wound, bent down to hold the wound, gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay...... Distinguished guests don't have to feel guilty, it's me who can't dodge. ”

Orchid knew that she had a lot of strength, thinking that she had injured him, so she picked up Lu Ming and put him on the couch next to her, and said anxiously, "Are you okay?" ”

Lu Ming was startled by her and lost his speech for a while.

Zhao Zhen saw Lu Ming coming, looked over and said, "Lu Ming, why don't you take care of it well, and bring it over as porridge?" Are you okay? ”

Lu Ming came back to his senses when he heard Miss's voice, endured the pain and got up and walked over: "Miss, I'm fine, I heard that Miss woke up, thinking that Miss hadn't eaten much in a day, and she must be hungry, so I sent the porridge prepared early to Miss to eat, but it was just ...... Is Miss hungry? I'll make another bowl. ”

Zhao Zhen saw the genuine concern in his eyes, and said with a smile: "You go back and rest, just let others do this kind of thing." ”

Lu Ming said stubbornly: "No, Miss is weak at this time, and she should be the most particular time, I don't worry about others, I'll go make a bowl for Miss again." Then he turned and walked out.

"Lu Ming!" Zhao Zhen called him, but Lu Ming still walked quickly, as if he was afraid that she would not allow it.

The orchid spilled someone's porridge and injured the person, and he felt guilty in his heart, and hurriedly said: "I'll help him!" With that, he ran away.

Zhao Zhen glanced at his granddaughter sitting next to him.

Fu Ningxuan noticed her gaze, smiled sweetly at her, and said, "I'm responsible for being beautiful like a flower, and I'm here to give my little cousin an eye~"

Zhao Zhen saw her narcissistic appearance, looked funny, and waved at her: "You go out, don't be infected by me." ”

Fu Ningxuan was not afraid at all, and stubbornly raised her head: "I'm not afraid!" Usually when I am sick, I need someone to accompany me the most, if there is no one to accompany me, I will be sad, and my little cousin has no one to accompany me, so I will accompany my little cousin! Then he took out a book, "How about I tell your little cousin a story?" ”

Zhao Zhen couldn't help but look at her granddaughter's innocent face, but at this time, her granddaughter accompanied her, and she was really in a much brighter mood, and said, "Okay, then you sit farther away from me, if the disease is transmitted to you, I won't be able to explain it to your father." ”

Fu Ningxuan was obedient this time, asked the maid to move the chair and put it a little farther away, and took out the idle book that had been prepared a long time ago and gave it to Zhao Zhennian, which was also decent.

Zhao Zhen was full of relief, this kid usually speaks very poisonously and does things domineeringly, but his heart is a kind heart.

The grandfather and grandson were enjoying themselves, and two people came in the house, and the leader smiled and said, "Little cousin, I have come to see you too." ”

Zhao Zhen looked over, it was her grandson Fu Yunheng, and it was natural to follow Chen Zhao behind, he was still wearing a mask and a white robe, with a pure heart and few desires, and his demeanor was beautiful.

As soon as he saw Chen Zhao, Zhao Zhen suddenly felt a little weak, and shrunk into the quilt with a wilt: "It's here." ”

Fu Ningxuan looked at her little cousin, who was still energetic just now, and now suddenly wilted, a little curious.
