Chapter 140: Scars on the back

Something like Lu Xingliang happened, and it was obviously impossible for the night banquet to continue, Yuan Chenghong immediately led the Jiangzhou officials and their idle people to leave the table, and Lin Mo suddenly spoke.

"Slow down, Yuanzhou Mu!"

Not only Yuan Chenghong stopped his movements, but other Jiangzhou officials also stopped their movements, and they all turned their eyes to Lin Mo, and everyone's thoughts were surging, could it be that Lord Shangqing regretted it and would not let go of Lu Jianshi easily.

Seeing that the Jiangzhou officials were a little nervous, Lin Mo suddenly laughed and said loudly: "Don't be nervous, my lords, what Benqing said will not be retracted, I just want the third batch of dancers who will be danced by Yuanzhou Pastor Fang just to stay." ”

Tonight's night banquet was quite long, nearly two hours, and in order not to repeat the dance music, the dancing girls changed a total of five batches.

As soon as Lin Mo's shocked words came out, not only Yuan Chenghong and other Jiangzhou officials cast suspicious glances, but even the eldest grandson Youyin and Liu Ruoshui also cast questioning glances, not knowing what Lin Mo was going to do.

Being stared at by everyone, Lin Mo's face turned red unexpectedly, and he said a little embarrassedly: "No, the hour is still early, the four o'clock (20:00) has not yet arrived, and Ben Qing has no intention of sleeping, this is not ......"

Lin Mo didn't say it too clearly, but Yuan Chenghong and other officials had already understood that the third batch of dancing girls was the most moving, and this Lord Shangqing was quietly admiring their swaying figures.

So, under Yuan Chenghong's arrangement, the third batch of dancing girls was retained.

After Daoyuan Chenghong and other Jiangzhou officials left the garden, Liu Ruoshui could no longer hold back the doubts in his heart and said, "My lord, why did you leave the third batch of dancing girls?"

The third batch of dancing girls were the most good-looking, but Liu Ruoshui didn't believe that Lin Mo left them behind, because he wanted to appreciate the swaying figure, you must know that Princess Rena's dance was much better than them.

The eldest grandson was worried and didn't believe it, so he also turned his inquiring eyes to Lin Mo.

Lin Mo glanced at the two women: "Want to know?"

The eldest grandson and Liu Ruoshui nodded their heads in unison.

Lin Mo deliberately sold a pass, and said with a mysterious smile: "Ruoshui, you immediately ask the people in the garden to find eight warm cloaks, and then let them build three stoves in the back hall." ”

"My lord, what are you going to do?" Liu Ruoshui was even more puzzled.

"If you want to know, do what I say. ”

After Liu Ruoshui, under the protection of six guards, went to the backyard and instructed the people in the garden, Lin Mo took the hand of the eldest grandson Wuyin: "Weiyin, let's go, let's go to the back hall too, as soon as this person leaves, it will be strange cold in this hall, and no matter how many stoves there are, it can't stand it." ”

Although the eldest grandson was also puzzled by Lin Mo's behavior in her heart, she didn't ask, she knew that the time had come, why did she need to ask more, wasn't it a lot of one move.

......

Lin Mo and the eldest grandson Yuyin walked slowly to the back hall hand in hand, and three stoves had been set up in the back hall, and eight dancing girls and Liu Ruoshui and others were also waiting in the hall.

Seeing Lin Mo coming, everyone hurriedly saluted.

Nodding in response, he then asked Xi Feng and Qiu Yun to put two chairs not far from the stove, and Lin Mo sat on the chair with his eldest grandson Yuyin.

Sitting on the chair, Lin Mo roasted his hands a little cold, but when he looked up, he found that everyone was still staring at him, and said, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and bring a chair and sit down." ”

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Fei Yan hurriedly put a chair for Liu Ruoshui next to Lin Mo, and after Liu Ruoshui sat down, he also stood behind Liu Ruoshui honestly.

looked up at the eight dancing girls again, the eight dancing girls thought that Lin Mo was going to let herself dance, so they were going to break the formation and dance, Lin Mo's sudden words made them stunned.

"There is no silk and bamboo wind music, how are the eight girls going to dance?"

At this time, the eight dancing girls couldn't jump, they didn't dance, so they had to stop the animals in a daze, stand in place, and all of them cast their eyes to wait for Lin Mo's instructions.

Lin Mo glanced at the eight dancing girls again, and ordered: "Come here, set up a seat in front of the stove for the eight girls, if water, put the prepared cloak on the eight girls, the sky in Jiangzhou is strangely cold." ”

Jiangzhou is further north, this season, it is much colder than the emperor, Lin Mo has lived in the imperial capital for a few months, and he is a little uncomfortable when he comes to Jiangzhou, and he feels a little cold.

......

Sitting in front of the fire, feeling the warm cold cloak on his body, and looking at the Lord Shangqing in front of him, who made Yuanzhou Mudu jealous, the hearts of the eight dancing girls were uneasy, and their hands were even more nervous.

Liu Ruoshui rested his head on Lin Mo's shoulder, holding a peeled fresh orange in his hand and eating it, his eyes kept looking at the eight dancing girls in front of him, thinking about what kind of medicine Lin Mo's gourd was selling.

The eldest grandson fell into Lin Mo's arms, closed his eyes, felt the warmth brought by the stove and his husband, and enjoyed this rare quiet warm time.

Looking at the restless eight dancing girls, looking at the hands that kept twisting the corners of their clothes, they were silent for a while, and Lin Mo finally spoke: "Eight girls don't need to be nervous, Benqing won't do anything to you, I just want to talk to you." ”

The eight dancing girls immediately looked at each other.

After another moment of silence, Lin Mo spoke: "The eight girls are all dancing girls in the Lu Thorn Mansion?"

The eight dancing girls looked at each other again, and after they had a unified answer, the older of the eight dancing girls spoke: "Back to Lord Shangqing, the concubines and others are the dancing girls in the mansion of Lord Thorn Shi." ”

This dancing girl is about twenty-two years old, and she is not the most beautiful of the eight girls, but she is obviously the core of the eight girls, because when they danced, Lin Mo found that she was standing in the center position, which was the legendary C position.

"Dare to ask what the girl is called?"

"Concubine Shuran. ”

"Well, yes, I look like a beauty when I hear the name. Lin Mowu sighed to himself, and suddenly said something that stunned everyone.

"Miss Shuran, can you show Benqing your back?"

As soon as these words came out, Shu Ran's eyes immediately widened, and the eldest grandson and Liu Ruoshui sat up straight as if they were frightened, looking at Lin Mo with a strange gaze.

"My lord, this ......" Shu Ran's face was embarrassed, and her face was full of embarrassment.

Lin Mo made a move, and when Xifeng and Qiu Yun and other male servants and guards withdrew from the hall, Lin Mo spoke again: "Miss Shuran, don't feel embarrassed, in fact, Benqing ......"

Before Lin Mo finished speaking, Liu Ruoshui also said with a flushed face: "My lord, Miss Shuran is a woman, you have to look at her back, this is not in line with etiquette, isn't it good for you to be like this?"

The eldest grandson also nodded, and said: "Yes, although Miss Shuran is a dancer, she is also a human being and deserves to be respected, is it not bad for Miss Shuran's reputation to do this?"

Lin Mo glanced at the two women: "Listen to me finish speaking." ”

Saying that, Lin Moyou looked at Shu Ran, who was embarrassed, and said seriously: "Miss Shu Ran doesn't need to feel embarrassed, in fact, Benqing is a doctor who can help you treat your illness, and it will be dangerous if your illness drags on any longer." ”

As soon as these words came out, Shu Ran's heart was immediately shocked, and she looked straight at Lin Mo, her eyes widened, as if to say: Lord Shangqing, how do you know?

"Miss Shuran, don't feel strange!" Lin Mo straightened up: "When you were dancing, although Ben Qing was drinking with Yuan Chenghong and others, he also noticed you standing in the center, and your movements when dancing were a little unnatural, so Ben Qing had this guess, so he deliberately let Yuan Chenghong keep you." ”

Saying that, Lin Mo said again: "Miss Shuran, you are relieved at the moment, but you are actually covering your real pale face and lips with powder, right?

Listening to Lin Mo's words, Shu Ran hesitated for a moment, then stood up in front of him, then turned his back, took off his cloak and thin skirt, and blocked the front with his robe, revealing his shocking back.

The back was full of scars, it looked like they had been whipped by whips, some of them were already scarred, but there were new scars on top of the old scars, and some were already inflamed, and the whole back was full of gold sore medicine powder.

Looking at Shu Ran's back, Liu Ruoshui and the eldest grandson Sorrow gritted their teeth, and their hearts were full of pity for Shu Ran.

After Shu Ran put on her dress again and put on her cloak, Lin Mo looked at the other seven dancing girls with strange expressions and asked, "You should also have such scars on your bodies, right?"

The seven dancers didn't answer, they all bowed their heads, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

Looking at their reactions, Lin Mo knew that his guess was completely right, the reason why he had such a guess was that their clothes attracted Lin Mo's attention.

The backs of the other four groups of dancing girls will show a piece of snow white to increase their allure, but Shu Ran and the other eight dancing girls have their backs not exposed at all, and they are still tightly wrapped, which is quite abnormal.

"Who did this?" Seeing that the other seven dancing girls also acquiesced, Liu Ruoshui suddenly stood up: "Miss Shuran, tell me, which bastard did this, I will break his body into thousands of pieces to avenge you." ”

Liu Ruoshui's sudden move shocked Lin Mo and the eldest grandson slightly, this Ruoshui is like this, why can't he hold back his temper when he encounters this matter, but he gets angry.

Seeing people encountering this suffering, anger should be due, but Liu Ruoshui's anger was a little excessive, it could be regarded as angry, which made Lin Mo suddenly have doubts in his heart, but now is not the time to ask Liu Ruoshui the reason.

Temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart, and pressed Liu Ruoshui back to the seat, Lin Mo said lightly: "Miss Shuran, they are all dancing girls in the Assassin's Mansion, who do you say did it?"

"Lu Xingliang?" Liu Ruoshui was even more angry: "Okay, this old thing is really a beast with a human face and a beast's heart, and he actually did this to Miss Shuran, I am really angry." ”

"Bastard, I'm going to kill Lu Xingliang, a brute who has lost his conscience, tonight, and the six guards in the house will come with me. With that, Liu Ruoshui stood up again and was about to walk outside the hall.

Seeing this, Lin Mo pulled Liu Ruoshui into his arms and hugged him tightly: "Ruoshui, don't be so impulsive, listen to what's going on first, after listening, I will definitely find a way to avenge Miss Shuran." ”

Unable to break free, and listening to Lin Mo's words, Liu Ruoshui quieted down and said indignantly: "My lord, you must not let go of Lu Xingliang, a beast with a human face and a beast's heart." ”

"Well, Ruoshui, don't worry, my lord promises you!"
