Chapter 161 Back to Qiyang County
"I know who is good to me, and as for what you say, let's do it, and I can't give you any answer."
"It's the slave and the maid who have overstepped it."
"Then can you tell me about Qin Yuxiao now?"
"Yes, miss. This Qin Yuxiao left the inn after the young lady took the medicine and fell asleep, and began to investigate the origin of those people in the Youjiulou tonight, presumably he would not give up. However, your slave thinks that he is probably going to be disappointed. After all, this matter was done by the dark building, they would not smash the signboard by themselves, so that people could find out what they had done, of course, the kind of person with their hands and eyes could do it, but the slave didn't think that Qin Yuxiao could do it. ”
Shen Zhuru thought about it, according to Yueyang's meaning, this Qin Yuxiao would definitely get nothing in the end.
But that's fine, so as not to be a goof.
Qin Yu smiled as Yueyang said, after going out for a night, he came back in the morning, and it was reported that after Qin Yu came back with a smile, he had a calm face, as if he had gained nothing.
Despite this, when Shen Zhuru woke up, he would be by her side, with a gentle smile on his face, serving her tea, water, and medicine, everything was done by himself, and he took care of it meticulously.
The doctor came to the inn every day to check Shen Zhuru's injuries, but because of Shen Zhuru's change, the trip was delayed.
However, Qin Yuxiao did not reveal the identities of himself and the others, but he did not immediately spread Shen Zhuru's situation, but despite this, the news finally reached the capital.
On the evening of the 22nd, after hiding it for some time, it was not Su Luoquan and others who rushed first when they got the news, but the fourth prince Yu Jinqiong.
After getting off the horse, the dusty Jade Jinqiong went straight to the courtyard where Shen Zhuru was, and when he saw Qin Yu's smiling face, he didn't say anything, and directly threw his fist in his face, and immediately knocked everyone out.
"Qin Yuxiao, are you taking good care of Ruzhu like this? If it weren't for my own sources, I wouldn't have been kept secret from you, not knowing that she would eventually be ruined because of your negligence. You're such a man. ”
Qin Yuxiao reached out and wiped the blood stains on the corner of his lips. There is no denying the accusation of Yu Jinqiong.
"It's because I didn't take care of her, you should beat me, if you don't get angry, you can beat again. I bear it. ”
"You ......" Yu Jinqiong struck angrily, and finally shook his hand, not bothering to pay attention to Qin Yuxiao, who wanted to be blamed and relieve the guilt in his heart, and entered Shen Zhuru's house.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Shen Zhuru's head wrapped like a mummy. Sleep peacefully with your eyes closed.
Yu Jinqiong sat down, reached out and gently touched Shen Zhuru's exposed hair, with a serious complicated expression.
"If I had clung to you from the beginning, even if you were not happy, I had bound you to my side, would you not have suffered such misfortune?"
Shen Zhuru's brows moved slightly, she woke up quietly, and after blinking her eyes, her eyes focused. I saw clearly that the person sitting next to him was not Qin Yuxiao, but the Jade Jinqiong that should have been in the capital.
"Fourth Highness, you ......"
"Don't move, you're still hurt, just lie down, you don't have to salute me." Yu Jinqiong pressed Shen Zhuru's body and didn't let her salute.
"Fourth Highness, the folk girl is fine, but her face is a little injured, and her body is fine. It does not affect the salute. Shen Zhuru struggled to get up, but was pressed back by Yu Jinqiong.
"If you don't salute, don't salute, won't my words be useless at all?" Yu Jinqiong shouted angrily, startling Shen Zhuru.
I didn't expect this Jade Jinqiong to be angry, and the momentum gave people the feeling that it was so scary. However, she underestimated the special care that Yu Jinqiong took for her.
Shen Zhuru lay obediently, looking at the jade brocade dome for a moment.
"Excuse me, did it scare you?"
Shen Zhuru shook his head busily.
"I'm just too worried about you, annoyed that you don't know how to cherish yourself, so I will be so cruel to you. Rest assured, when my affairs are taken care of. I will definitely find the best miracle doctor to heal your face, and everything will be fine. ”
Yu Jinqiong's promise was heard in the ears of Qin Yuxiao, who was standing at the door, but he couldn't help but clench his fists.
I wanted to say something, but I didn't dare to say much.
After Yu Jinqiong accompanied Shen Zhuru for a conversation, he handed over an unknown token to Shen Zhuru, only saying that if there was something that could not be solved, or someone bullied her, she could take this jade pendant to the Guangwei Dart Bureau near Qiyang County to inform the chief dart master of the dart bureau in the future, and show this jade pendant, and someone would help her solve the problem.
And when this jade pendant was handed over to Shen Zhuru, it was when only two people were alone in the house, which showed that Yu Jinqiong didn't want to be known by a third party, so he gave such a thing to Shen Zhuru.
After having dinner together, Yu Jinqiong did not stay to rest, and left directly to return to the capital, which shows that he found an opportunity to come secretly.
Seeing Yu Jinqiong's concern, Shen Zhuru's mood was quite complicated.
It's a pity that this battle for the throne has never been something that ordinary people like her can get their hands on, although she can't pray that he gets what he wants, at least if she loses, it is the greatest blessing to be able to save her life.
Because of Shen Zhuru's injury, Hua Yingyue was completely neglected for a few days, and she almost didn't see Qin Yuxiao look at her more, even if it was to eat, it was all in Shen Zhuru's house.
Even if it was reported that there was a big man today, she only knew that Qin Yu was beaten with a smile, but she didn't know who it was.
A few times he wanted to get close, he was sent away, and the intention of that person was obviously to come to that person, Qin Yuxiao should have been free, but even so, he would rather stand at the door and blow the cold wind than be invited to sit in her house and have a meal with her.
It can be seen that this flower Yingyue should have a lot of fire in her heart, and how unwilling she is.
"Yueniang, did you say I did something wrong before? You see, since that day, he has never looked at me squarely, and his heart is all about her, what is so good about her, isn't she beautiful? But now that she has been disfigured and ugly, why is he still so good to her? It just doesn't make sense. ”
"Madame is angry, maybe the master is just guilty, feeling that he didn't protect Miss Ru well and let her become what she is now, but he is just guilty and wants to make amends, and he doesn't really mean to snub Madame."
"No, I don't think it's that simple." Hua Yingyue shook her head, she wasn't sure what she had planned.
"Madame, the matter has come to this, whatever the reason. Madam, you have to think that it is because of the guilt of the master that he takes care of the girl Ru, only in this way can you calm down, at least not to make people suspicious of Madame's head. After this period of time. Madame is not too late to make another plan. If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, madam, you must not mess with yourself. ”
"Yueniang, I know, I won't mess around. At least, until it's far enough from the capital. I'm not going to mess around. Hua Yingyue said in a deep voice, and suddenly broke a wooden hairpin in her hand.
On the twenty-fifth day of the first month, the injuries on Shen Zhuru's face could already be removed.
After removing the gauze, after seeing the wrinkled and curly scar in the mirror, Shen Zhuru directly smashed the mirror and screamed.
"Ah, why, why is this happening, I don't want it, I don't."
"Ruzhu. You calm down, it's okay, it's just a little scar, there will be no problem, you are still so beautiful in my eyes. ”
"No, it won't look good anymore, ruined, ruined. I don't have the face to go out to meet people. Shen Zhuru covered her face and cried sadly, not letting Qin Yu smile and touch her.
"Don't worry, I've got you covered. He will help you cover up the injuries on your face so that no one will notice the scars on your face. Qin Yu smiled and comforted, pulled a man in his early twenties to him, and introduced him to Shen Zhuru.
"This girl doesn't have to worry. It's easy to cover up your scars, if you don't believe it, I'll take care of it for you, and then you'll see what the result is. If it's not ideal, it's never too late for you to be sad. ”
"Really?"
"Don't worry, girl, it's no problem."
"That. All right. ”
"Girl, please do a good job, introduce yourself first, my name is Cai Ming, I am a makeup master, after I tidy up for the girl, if you are satisfied, then how to deal with the maid handed over to you, your makeup can be handled by the maid in the future, and the girl will never be embarrassed."
"Then there's Master Lao Cai." Shen Zhuru sat in front of the dressing mirror, and then saw this Cai Ming take out some liquid, and after applying it to her wound, she took out a piece that was similar to her skin color and sewed it up in the area on her face.
After some tidying and pasting, he covered it up with gouache, and I have to say that Cai Ming's makeup skills are really masterful.
It's just a patch and a cover of rouge gouache, but I really can't see the appearance that should have been injured.
"It's really invisible, that's great." Shen Zhuru said with a look of surprise, and turned to look at Qin Yuxiao's eyes were a little gentle.
"Is the girl satisfied?" Cai Ming asked, still very satisfied with his masterpiece.
"Thank you Master Cai, your craftsmanship is really like my reborn parents, giving me a good face and giving me the confidence to face everything."
"I would also like to thank the girl for giving me this opportunity, with the girl's appearance, if it is really ruined like this, it is a pity. Since the girl was satisfied, she found a maid to study with me, and in the future, she would take care of the girl's makeup, after all, I am a man, and some things are not convenient. ”
"Yang Yue ......"
"Master Cai, let the slave learn from you."
"Okay." Cai Ming took Yueyang to start learning about makeup, and Shen Zhuru also had a smile on his face, and as Qin Yu laughed out of the door that he hadn't stepped out of for a long time, there was talk and laughter.
"How is it possible, how can her face still get better, I thought it was ...... the scream just now" Hua Yingyue stood not far away and looked at Shen Zhuru's beautiful face, with a look of shock on her face that could not be concealed.
"Madame, calm down, calm down. That's not true. The slave maid saw a person brought back by the master before, saying that it was the best makeup master found from elsewhere, for the defective face, as long as the foundation is still there, the appearance can be restored intact, or even better, you look at her appearance, it is obviously makeup, it must be the master's handwriting, not really nothing at all. Maybe when you encounter water, everything will return to the way it was. ”
"Yes, it must be. According to the injuries I saw that day, there was no reason why they would get better so quickly, and it was impossible for the doctors to just talk about it, they must have been covered up. Hmph, it's really shameless. actually used this method to cover up his flaws. But that's okay, when she returns to the Qin family in Nanyang County and reveals her true face, I see what face she has to continue to stay in the Qin family. ”
Hua Yingyue smiled after she was angry, and even seemed to see a lot of intimacy between Qin Yuxiao and Shen Zhuru.
On the twenty-seventh day of the first month, at Qin Yuxiao's request, Shen Zhuru rested for one more night before setting off for Nanyang County.
Along the way, there was not much turmoil, and Hua Yingyue became a lot quieter, and there was no more incident.
The silence was surprisingly quiet.
On February 13, after half a month of traveling, Shen Zhuru and his party arrived at the boundary of An Shaofu and entered the scope of Qiyang County.
Looking at the scenery all the way, Shen Zhuru felt a lot of emotion in her heart, it was only half a year since she left Qiyang County, and now she is revisiting the old place, and the feeling in her heart is so emotional.
"The front is Qiyang County, which was delayed in Showa County for nearly half a month, and now that I am in Qiyang County, I need to go and say hello, and I will come to office later."
"Husband, in fact, even if you go directly to take office, what does it matter if you return to Nanyang County after taking office?"
"You know, once you take over, you can't leave your post unless you have to. I have delayed the time before, missed the time to return home and save my relatives, and now I can only ask the former prefect to help me for a while, and after returning to Nanyang County, after holding my marriage with Ruzhu, I will take over, I believe that the former prefect Liu will also understand. ”
The smile on Hua Yingyue's face stiffened slightly, but she recovered quickly.
"I don't understand that. Since the husband thinks he can, then he will do it. ”
Entering Qiyang County, Shen Zhuru couldn't help but look out the window, looking at this familiar street, her heart was full of mixed tastes, and she accidentally caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Yueyang couldn't help asking, following Shen Zhuru's gaze, but didn't find anything unusual.
"It's nothing, just a familiar figure, maybe it's just that I'm dazzled, it's not that person." Shen Zhuru shook her head with a smile, somewhat uncertain in her heart.
If it was really Xiao Yu'er, shouldn't he have been arranged by Mu Fenghua? How could he appear alone on the streets of Qiyang County, still dressed in such tatters, like a little beggar.
Directly settled at the Wanglai Inn in Qiyang County, Qin Yu smiled and explained, and then left the inn and went to the prefect's yamen. (To be continued.) )
