Half a quarter of an hour later, Shen You, who had been killed like a bloody person, carefully hugged the extremely thin Qingmei, and walked out of the dilapidated temple that had been abandoned for many years with a slight stagger; Behind the two of them, there were pieces of flesh that could not be distinguished from their original faces, and a broken mud tire that had been replaced with a new bloody coat...

When the medicinal energy in Qingmei's body dissipates, the warm sun of early summer has been clouded on the window paper; Qingmei raised her hand and rubbed her sleepy eyes, just wanted to turn over and get out of bed, but felt that her legs didn't obey at all; When I lifted up half of my body and looked at it, I saw that Shen You was sleeping soundly on the edge of the bed, his head happened to be pillowed on his calf, and there was a miscellaneous book of etiquette scattered around his hand......

Qingmei carefully propped herself up, wanting to reach out and touch Shen You's cheeks and hair, but Shen You's suddenly outstretched palm gently held the white jade wrist......

"Awake? Dizziness? ”

"There are some... Did I fall ill on the street? ”

"Hmm...... The doctor said that your diet is too light, you need to take a lot of supplements, and put some meat on your body. ”

"Got it... By the way, the old man in the dungeon ......"

"Don't worry, someone from his house picked him up."

"Okay...... At such an age, and with such a serious injury, it is indeed better to live with relatives......"

After Shen You returned home, because he was worried about Qingmei's body, he just changed his coat and hastily treated his wounds; Fang just lay on the bed to rest, naturally not obvious; Now when I moved, I felt that the middle coat and the wound were sticking together; This sudden pain hit him, and he couldn't help but gasp......

"Hiss......"

Qingmei hurriedly lifted the quilt and sat on the edge of the bed, quickly untied Shen You's cover, and reached out to pull the other party's middle coat to check......

"Don't pull it, the blood scab sticks to the clothes and ......"

Qingmei's hands trembled slightly, but she still took it back, and at the same time turned her head and shouted out the door:

"Chun Tao, prepare warm water for the third son...... Spring peach? …… Forget it, I'll go myself......"

Qingmei reached out and took off the cover from the hanger, moved her legs, which had regained the flow of blood, and led Shen You, who was injured, to the bed for a short rest, and then walked out of the door in a hurry; And Shen You also smiled at the corner of his mouth, did not stop her, and let her push the door away......

Qingmei pushed open the door, and there was a scorching red fire in her eyes......

"Aunt Qingmei, are you called a slave? What are the commands? ”

The rough girl Chun Tao, when she heard the report from the family, hurriedly put down the work in her hand and ran to Shen You's courtyard to do something; And Qingmei pointed to the red and incomprehensible piece in front of her and asked:

"Is this wedding ceremony made today? Could it be that the eldest lady is happy? ”

“…… Isn't that ...... It's Aunt Qingmei, you're happy! ”

"Nonsense, beware of having your tongue cut out! The third prince wants to take a bath, and by the way, go to the study to get my medicine box. ”

“…… Yes, next time I don't dare, don't ask someone to cut my tongue......"

Chun Tao pretended to be aggrieved and took the order, walked more than a dozen steps away, and then turned around and shouted again:

"Congratulations Auntie!"

Qingmei can feel that she is genuinely happy for herself, but she is still a little confused; But Qingmei still walked away, she could only shake her head and walk back to the room reflexively.

It didn't take long for several sturdy servants to build a large wooden barrel and enter Shen You's courtyard under the guidance of Chun Tao, who was carrying a medicine box.

"Auntie, everything is here. Does the third son want to bathe in the garden or in the house? ”

"The third prince is slightly dyed with the wind and cold, and it is not suitable to see the wind, so let's take it in."

After arranging the things to be used, the men quietly left the courtyard; And Qingmei personally supported Shen You and immersed him in the medicated bath bucket with his underwear:

"Childe, today's house is dressed in red and hung with colors, and it looks like there is some happy event; The slave maid asked Chun Tao just now, and said that it was not the matter of the eldest lady's room...... Could it be that the good things of the third young master and Miss Li are approaching? ”

"No, guess again?"

"Hmm...... Could it be that the eldest lady is going to get married? That's not right...... The eldest lady's future husband is still on the side of Chai Sang Shu at this time, so he shouldn't have time to get married, right? ”

"Hmm...... I don't always ask about family matters, so why do you ask me? ”

"It's also ......"

Qingmei thought about the name of the happy event, and at the same time carefully peeled off Shen You's middle coat and wiped the wound; Shen You, on the other hand, stared at the crow's feet stacked at the corners of her eyes and fell into a subtle state of sluggishness......

Last night, in the ruined temple near the swamp, Shen You, who was already injured, would threaten his life with Qingmei's life in order to prevent the group of miscellaneous dogs from jumping off the wall; The only way to do this is to force the exercises and destroy all the enemies as quickly as possible.

Attacking with all your might will greatly increase the tempo of the battle; However, due to the complete abandonment of defense, in the narrow and closed ruined temple, he "fought in the same room" with fifty Diting spies; For Shen You today, it is impossible to get out of the way!

In the end, Shen You successfully rescued Qingmei who fell into a coma at the cost of thirteen minor injuries and brought her back to the Shen family's mansion in Gusu City safely.

Shen You knew that the sleepy Qingmei was just poisoned; As long as the drug dissipates on its own, it will not cause any harm; So he didn't say anything, just settled him in the room. Shen You hastily treated the wound, changed into clean clothes, and went straight to the main courtyard due north.

The main courtyard of the Shen Mansion is the residence of the current head of the Shen family, Shen Ju Shen Caotang. However, because Shen Ju has been in Jiankang for many years, the head of the Shen family is actually Shen Ju's wife Lu Yun.

It was late at night when Shen You visited, and Mrs. Lu was asleep; Even the maids on night duty outside the door leaned against the pillars and snored slightly. Shen You stepped forward and gently patted the woman's shoulder:

"Mother Wu, I'm here to see my sister-in-law..."

Mother Wu was woken up by Shen You, and when she saw her third son's pale face and cold expression, her heart immediately sank. From personal preference, Wu's mother doesn't like this idle third son very much.

Now that Shen Sangongzi has passed the age of not being confused, he has never been willing to marry a wife and concubine, and he has never even heard of him visiting the Qinlou Chu Pavilion; Except for occasionally leaving Gusu and visiting friends, this third prince is simply a paralyzed person!

In fact, Shen You's matter is not just Wu Ma's curiosity; In Gusu City, and even in the whole of Nankang, it is an unsolved case that has not been solved for many years. In the eyes of ordinary people, although this third son of Shen is "not literate, he is not good at martial arts", compared with the two elder brothers, he is not very promising. But it is undeniable that Shen You's character and appearance are all first-class standouts, if you count the immeasurable huge wealth of the Gusu Shen family, even if he is a "broken sleeve" Xiao Langjun, it will not be delayed until now!

As the saying goes, this family has a scripture that is difficult to read; Most people in the world only know the distress of "hunger, noise and hunger", but they can't understand the difficulties of large families. Since the death of the old lady and the old lady of the Shen family, Shen Ju, who succeeded the head of the family, has been worried about Shen You's marriage.

The three heroes of the Shen family, the second Shen Ang, was made a waste by the shaman witch Li Xuanyu, except that he could still breathe, it was no different from death. Although he has a son with Guo Zhen, a barbarian girl from the Northern North, according to the ancestral rules of the Shen family, this child can only be defined as "coming from the wrong way"! You can share a large sum of money with him, and you can also reward him with a few shops, but you can't write the name Shen Gui into the genealogy of the Shen family! So from this point of view, Shen Ang's bloodline can be regarded as completely broken.

And Shen Ju, as the head of the Shen family and the chief treasurer of the Chang'an Merchant Gang, also controls the core power organ of the Nankang Imperial Court, the Council of Elders, and his energy is already limited. Since his youth, he has been living in a sea of mundane affairs, and he has no time to take care of anything else. Although he has been married for many years, it is a pity that he has a daughter and no children under his knees; In recent years, his wife Lu's health has been much worse than before; Whether it is considering personal energy or the physical condition of both parties, I am afraid that the chance for him to continue the Shen family's incense is already very slim.

Under such circumstances, Shen You, a strong and well-looking martial arts practitioner, has become the only hope for the Shen family! What is the wealth of the family, what calls for the wind and rain; In the eyes of Shen Ju, an old-fashioned person, if there is no heir and grandchildren to inherit it, all achievements and wealth are just grass without roots and water, and they have no value at all.

However, with Shen You's temperament, it is impossible to bring the shackles of taking care of the overall situation and be at the mercy of his eldest brother; It's not that Shen Ju hasn't tried to cut first and then play, but when those few court officials who were interested in marrying the Shen family were secretly stabbed to death one after another, this matter was completely shelved by Shen Ju and not mentioned.

Outsiders don't know why, can Shen Ju still not be able to guess who the "murderer" is?

In fact, Shen You's thoughts about Qingmei, Shen Ju, who is the eldest brother, also knows it. He also quietly passed Shen You through his wife; said that he should marry a woman with a clean family and a decent personality first; Then secretly take Qingmei as a concubine.

However, Shen Gui's reply to this proposal was only one sentence:

"Secretly take a concubine, how can you get the word name!"

Shen You himself didn't care about the so-called fame, but he thought that this was what Qingmei deserved and should not be insulted; As for Shen Ju and Mrs. Lu, they were unwilling to accept it no matter what......

It's all because Qingmei was punished too heavily when she was young, and she is no longer able to give birth.

Although Shen Ju is old-fashioned, he is much more enlightened than the old lady; However, no matter how enlightened the head of the family is, he can't bear the result of being cut off from his children and grandchildren! Therefore, the matter of Shen You and Qingmei has been delayed until today!

Now, Mrs. Wu saw Shen You breaking into the main courtyard with a sharp blade hanging from his waist and a frosty face; Tired and sleepy, he immediately woke up most of the time: on weekdays, he didn't come back to the main courtyard for eight hundred years! Tonight's saber visit is not to say "good night" to my sister-in-law!

Mrs. Wu, who married into the Shen Mansion with Lu Yun back then, carefully weighed it for a long time, still out of a protector's heart, and had the courage to stop Shen You at first glance......
