Chapter 37: Wounded, Whipped

When Ling Lan heard Ling Chuchu's words, she subconsciously looked at her stomach, stumbled under her feet, stood still holding on to the table, swallowed her saliva, and said, "What did you say?" I don't understand ......."

Ling Lan covered her ears and screamed, pointed to the door, and said, "Go, you go, get out of here!" ”

Aunt Gu, who came in a hurry, heard this scream, rushed in and slapped Ling Chuchu in the face, "Slut, you wild seed, what did you do to our Lanlan?" Get out, get out of here! ”

Ling Chuchu didn't notice it, and suddenly stepped back, hitting the door panel before barely stopping, "Back then, what was going on?" ”

Aunt Gu hugged Ling Lan and sneered.

The house was full of messes, there was no red silk in the palace at all, and it was as cold as an ice cellar.

"Back then?" Aunt Gu pointed to her face, "You all say that the prince spoiled me because of this face that looks like a princess, but who knows, obviously I am the one who followed the prince first!" ”

"What bullshit Princess Zhennan, fake, all fake!"

Aunt Gu picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, rushed to Ling Chuchu, stuck to her side face, gritted her teeth and said, "Obviously, I should be the princess, it's that slut, it's she who snatched what should belong to me!" ”

"Chanting the Buddha, I think she is weak-hearted, she has done so many bad things in the first half of her life, and she wants to ask the Buddha for forgiveness, phew!" Aunt Gu screamed, "She deserves to die, you deserve to die, you all should be for my daughter...... Daughter, my daughter is Lan Lan, damn it......"

Blood came out of Ling Chuchu's side face.

Yuan Qin panicked, and suddenly pushed the crazy Aunt Gu away, and pulled Ling Chuchu out of the way, "Crazy, these two people are crazy......"

Ling Chuchu squatted on the ground, his hands stained with blood.

"Hurt?"

Regarding the events of that year, the people in the palace avoided talking about it, why did the princess keep him by her side, and why did the prince admit her identity?

"Let's go." Ling Chuchu slowly got up and led Yuan Qin back to Tinghe Courtyard.

Aunt Gu, who was pushed away, squatted in place and cried.

"Daughter, my daughter ......"

Ling Lan beckoned the servants to drive the idlers away, then closed the door, grabbed Aunt Gu's clothes, let Aunt Gu stand beside her, gritted her teeth and said, "Who can you show your lost soul!" It's just that I married Fang Zhiyuan, I'm still in the capital, you're still in the palace, the princess still doesn't dare to come out of the Buddhist hall, we didn't lose, we didn't lose! ”

"Mother, since the position of princess is yours, then you can snatch back what originally belonged to you!" Ling Lan's eyes were full of murder, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Dad is back, just to suppress Ling Chuchu's Anguo County Lord, so as not to let my mother be afraid of her title everywhere." ”

Ling Lan thought of what had happened in the past few days, and her original White Lotus temperament had all disappeared.

What if he was raped, Ling Lan's husband was still one of the top teenagers in the entire capital.

The two got together and counted tomorrow's marriage, with a smug smile on the corner of their mouths.

Jiang Guo's custom of getting married, as soon as the night passed, the sound of firecrackers began.

Ling Chuchu was woken up as soon as he lay down, Yuan Qin closed the doors and windows, and specially made earplugs, "Miss, let's sleep again, otherwise I won't have energy during the day." ”

She looked at the moonlight and shook her head, always feeling uneasy in her heart.

"Did you notice anything wrong?"

Shi Ren came in from outside and said, "If you go back to Miss, the minions have been staring at the fifth lady, and after you left, they did close the door, as if they were planning something, but they haven't found anything unusual until now." ”

Ling Chuchu nodded, glanced at Shi Ren, and said, "You go and take a rest, it's good to have Yuan Qin here." ”

The night sky is lit up with dazzling colors, and the colors are very beautiful.

Ling Chuchu put on a cloak, walked into the courtyard, and looked up at the fireworks in the sky, "The glory of a person's life is like fireworks in the sky, brilliant for a while, nothing will be left." ”

Ling Chuchu stood on the pavilion and watched Ling Lan's courtyard, where the minions were coming in and out, everything was in order.

Suddenly, something was thrown out.

The servant knelt on the ground, and then Ling Lan ran out of the room crying and rushed into the study.

Ling Chuchu smiled, she knew that it was impossible for Aunt Gu, the mother and daughter, to just let herself go.

It was only half a cup of tea, and the servant on duty in the study knocked on the door of the Listening Lotus Courtyard, saying that the king of Zhennan had invited her over.

The clothes were changed early, Ling Chuchu bowed his head, and followed behind the minion.

The study is lit up.

Ling Hongyuan took the wedding dress and slowly clenched it into a fist, "How can this be?" ”

Ling Lan cried sadly, touching the skirt of the wedding dress with her hand little by little, the carefully sewn embroidery on it was all picked up, and the lines were floating everywhere, and she couldn't wear it at all.

"Dad, today is my daughter's big day, what can I do?"

Ling Chuchu pushed the door in, and before he could salute, he was covered with a full bosom of the wedding dress.

She held the wedding dress in the palm of her hand suspiciously, looked at the embroidery work on it carefully, frowned and said, "What's the matter?" Even if the fifth sister doesn't like it, she can't cut the wedding dress like this......"

"Shut up!" Ling Hongyuan was furious, "You kneel down for me!" ”

Ling Chuchu had already made preparations, knelt calmly in front of Ling Hongyuan, and took the opportunity to salute, saying, "Daughter to Daddy Hello, Daddy Wanfu Jin'an." ”

After speaking, let Yuan Qin support himself and prepare to stand up.

Aunt Gu was dressed brightly, ordered Mama Liu to press her in place, and sneered: "Lord Anguo, I know that we used to have some problems with each other, but today is Lan Lan's big day, a woman only once in her life, how can you be so ruthless and let people ruin her wedding dress?" ”

Aunt Gu's eyes were proud.

However, when facing the king of Zhennan, tears flowed down his face in an instant, which complemented today's makeup, and I was particularly pitiful, and the petite threw herself into Ling Hongyuan's arms, and said delicately: "Lord, Lan Lan married before her sister as a younger sister, it is Lan Lan's fault, but you also know this matter, how can the county lord be like this?" There was a problem with the wedding dress, not only Lan Lan couldn't raise her head in the Fang family in the future, but even our palace also lost face......"

"I know."

Ling Hongyuan's eyes were cold, "Please do the family law." ”

While he asked Aunt Gu to think of a way to see if there was a remedy, he stared fiercely at Ling Chuchu, who was kneeling on the ground, which could be said to be unruly, and picked up the leather whip that the slave brought up, with a thick mouth.

Smack-

A thud hit the ground, leaving a trail in an instant.

"Do you plead guilty or not?"

Ling Chuchu struggled twice, couldn't break free from Mama Liu's shackles, raised his head suddenly, looked at Ling Hongyuan with stunned eyes, and said, "My daughter doesn't know what the crime is, please make it clear to my father." ”

In Ling Hongyuan's eyes.

She was provocative.

Suddenly his anger rose, and he raised his whip and whipped it.

But Ling Chuchu was the concubine of the palace after all, Ling Hongyuan saved face, only the whip tail was pumped on her, and she still gasped in pain.

Ling Chuchu raised his hands above his head and kowtowed to Ling Hongyuan: "My daughter doesn't know what the crime is, please make it clear to my father." ”

"You!"

"Evil girl!"

"Smack-"

Another whip.

"On the day of the wedding, you ruined your sister's wedding dress, and you still have the face to say that you don't know what the crime is?"

Ling Hongyuan stayed on the battlefield all year round.

When anger came up, he couldn't hold his hand, and he took it one after another.

Yuan Qin knelt on the side crying and kowtowing, and Shi Ren was directly in front of Ling Chuchu.

Ling Chuchu straightened his back, endured the pain on his body, and said loudly: "My daughter doesn't know why my sister's dress is damaged, please check it out." ”

"Dare to deny it?!" Ling Hongyuan kicked away Shi Ren, and this whip did not retract its strength.

The long whip stretched along Ling Chuchu's left shoulder to his right waist and abdomen, and the delicate and gorgeous clothes were torn, and blood ran down the wound.

She finally lost control and fell to the ground.

"No matter how my father beats, my daughter only has one sentence, I don't know why the fifth sister's dress is damaged, I listen to the people in the lotus courtyard can testify for me, please check it out."

When the real blood flowed out, Ling Hongyuan finally came back to his senses.

received the long whip and ordered someone to bring the witness up, and the person kneeling on the ground was the embroidered girl in charge of the wedding dress, "Back to the prince's words, yesterday the county lord ordered someone to take the wedding dress away, saying that he wanted to watch it, and sent it back in the evening, that's it." ”

Yuan Qin screamed: "You are spewing blood, Miss has been drinking tea in the yard all the time yesterday, and she has never touched the wedding dress at all!" ”

Mama Liu walked up and slapped Yuanqin to the ground, "The master is here, it's not your turn to speak!" ”

Ling Chuchu, who was lying on the ground, suddenly began to sneer.

Resisting the pain in his body, he got up and looked at the people standing in the room.

It's especially like the scene when she just crossed over, but at that time, the king of Zhennan was not there, and she was able to rely on her identity as the county lord of Anguo to suppress these people, and now she ......

Hehe.

"Since the father doesn't believe the words of the slave in his daughter's courtyard, the daughter has nothing to say."

She fell to her knees and raised her head.

Ling Hongyuan was angry and wanted to get the whip again, but was stopped by the little guy Xudong.

"Lord Wang, on this happy day, the guests are coming soon, why don't you let the county lord clean up first?"

Ling Hongyuan snorted coldly, but the whip had already been put down, "You have committed such a big crime, and you want to leave after receiving a whip?" ”

Xu Dong winked at Ling Chuchu's minions.

Shi Ren reacted the fastest, and immediately knelt at Ling Hongyuan's feet, and said: "It's a slave, everything is done by the slave behind the county master's back, please punish the slave, please punish the slave ......"

Ling Hongyuan kicked Shi Ren away and said coldly, "The dog slave who deceived the upper and lower subordinates, dragged out to punish the thirty boards, in order to set an example!" ”

Ling Chuchu wanted to intercede for Shi Ren, but was stopped by Shi Ren.

Shi Ren smiled and kowtowed to Ling Hongyuan, "The slave Xie Wang Ye did not kill the grace, and the slave thanked the prince for the grace of not killing......"

It's dawn.

The palace was full of joy.

In order not to disturb the guests who came to congratulate him, Shi Ren was dragged to the small bamboo forest in the backyard to be boarded.

Ling Chuchu stood aside and stared, and every time the slave hit a board, she threatened, "If Shi Ren has three longs and two shorts, don't think about it!" ”

Even so, after the thirty teams were beaten, the ass still blossomed.

Listen to the death of the door of the Lotus Temple.

There is not a single minion in the yard, so don't transfer to the front yard to help.

All three of them were injured, Ling Chuchu took a deep breath and said, "I will definitely avenge you!" ”

Shi Ren was lying on the couch, his face pale, trying to arouse a smile, "Yuan Qin, go and help Miss change her clothes and dress up, the auspicious time is coming soon, and Miss can't be absent." ”

Yuan Qin was indignant, "Miss is injured like this, how can she go?" Besides, that Aunt Gu deliberately harmed Miss, why did Miss go to congratulate them......"

"That's why I'm going to go!" Shi Ren gasped in pain, paused, and said, "They just want the young lady not to participate, do you think, my sister is married, and the county lord of Anguo has a temper and does not attend, what a big hat?" ”

Ling Chuchu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and sat down in front of the dresser, "Shi Ren is right, not only do I want to go, but I also want to bless Ling Lan with a smile all the way, and I wish her and Fang Zhiyuan Qin Se and Ming, and be united forever!" ”

Ling Lan changed into her wedding dress.

It was prepared by the mansion for Ling Qingfu to be worn when she married the prince of Huainan.

Whether it is fabric, or embroidery, it is superior.

Yuan Qin was unhappy and whispered: "I think they have wanted this wedding dress for a long time." ”

Ling Chuchu patted the back of Yuan Qin's hand, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Don't say it." ”

Ling Hongyuan's whips made her seriously injured, all of them were drugged and wrapped in strips of cloth, in order to prevent blood from seeping out, Ling Chuchu tried to stay in one place and not move.

Aunt Gu appeared with a smile like a flower, and when she saw Ling Chuchu, her smile paused.

After greeting a few friends, Aunt Gu came to Ling Chuchu, "I didn't expect it, the dignified county lord of Anguo is quite capable of bending and stretching." ”

Aunt Gu fiddled with her hairpin and said, "But so what? The prince has just handed over the stewardship to me again, you, the county lord, don't you want to make a living under my aunt? ”

"Hmph, I see that the person you are wearing looks like a dog, but I don't know, I don't have the strength to fight with me!"

Ling Chuchu kept his head down and played with the bracelet, and deliberately waited for a while, making sure that Aunt Gu had nothing to say, and said unhurriedly: "Why can't this county lord understand?" My aunt and I are a family, what are we fighting, and what do we need to fight? Isn't it that my aunt has been locked up for a few days and is stupid to shut up her brain? ”

"You!"

Aunt Gu was just about to get angry, but she was pulled by Mama Liu's sleeve, and instantly regained her composure, and said with a smile: "Whatever the county lord says, that's how it is, as long as the county lord is happy." ”

After speaking, he poured a cup of tea for Ling Chuchu with a smile, "Today is Lan Lan's big day, I will replace the wine with tea, and I will toast you for Lan Lan, we will have a long life in the future!" ”

Ling Chuchu replied. "Then I wish Sister Lanlan and Third Prince Fang to grow old together and be united forever, and not to harm others again."

"You!" The corners of Aunt Gu's mouth trembled, and she directly poured the hot tea on her chest.

Yuan Qin said: "Auntie, how are you!" ”

Aunt Gu hurriedly changed her face, stepped forward with a handkerchief, and looked like she was going to wipe Ling Chuchu clean, "Oh, I'm really embarrassed, Lan Lan got married today, I'm so happy, I didn't hold it steady for a while, are you okay......?"

In fact, every time my index finger touched her wound, he pressed it hard.

Ling Chuchu endured the pain and smiled: "It's okay, I'll go change my clothes." ”

Aunt Gu sneered and wiped the blood from her fingers with a handkerchief, "Fight with me, you are still tender." ”

Ling Chuchu pulled Yuan Qin and walked back quickly, his fingers trembling and caressing the wound, and after a while, his hands were full of blood.

Yuan Qin was about to cry in a hurry, "Miss, let's not go, let's not go......"

Ling Chuchu straightened his back, "Go, I suffered such a big loss in the morning, I won't let Aunt Gu take advantage of it again!" ”

The bandage is tied tighter.

Clothes are looser and darker.

Outside the palace, a string of earth-shattering firecrackers was lit, and Fang Zhiyuan rode a horse and came with a welcoming team.

Xi Po took Ling Lan's hand and came to the gate of the palace.

Ling Lan stopped, said something to her aunt and sisters, and finally came to Ling Chuchu, Ling Chuchu said congratulations loudly, and then leaned into Ling Lan's ear and said, "Fifth sister, do you remember Ah Cai who embroidered the purse for you?" When you get married, remember to ask Fang Sangongzi where he hid Ah Cai. ”

She smiled, helped Ling Lan sort out the wedding dress, and took the hand and handed it to Xi Po, "I wish my sister and brother-in-law, raise your eyebrows." ”

Seeing Ling Lan's sedan chair leave, Ling Chuchu finally couldn't bear it, leaned on Yuan Qin's body, and staggered, "Go back and call the doctor." ”

As soon as the two of them walked to the door of Tinghe Courtyard, she completely fainted.

Shi Ren lay on the couch next to the board, listening to the fact that there was no one who could use it in the lotus courtyard, Yuan Qin used all her strength, and while carrying Ling Chuchu in, she shouted: "Is there anyone, come on, the county lord fainted......"

Suddenly, a pair of hands picked up Ling Chuchu by the waist.

"Second Young Master Lu......"

Lu Qingran strode into the room and said to Yuan Qin, "You go and call the doctor." ”

Then he said to the dark guard: "Bring the best wound medicine in the palace." ”

He looked down at Ling Chuchu, who was lying on the bed, his face pale, his hands trembling uncontrollably, "Chu Chu......"

Ling Chuchu had a low-grade fever.

A pair of hands gestured randomly, "Don't, you don't want to ...... It hurts ......."

Lu Qingran grabbed her hand, put it on his face, leaned against her ear, and said, "It's me, Chu Chu, I'm Lu Qingran, you tell me, where does it hurt ......?"

The side of his face that had rubbed against the collar was stained with blood.

Lu Qingran looked over carefully, only to find that it was covered by dark clothes, and it was all blood......

"Who is it, who hurt you like this?!"

Yuan Qin pulled the doctor and pushed the door in, "Take a look at our young lady......"

The doctor shook his head while calling his pulse, checked the injuries on Ling Chuchu's body, and directly scolded Yuan Qin for being bloody, "The county lord is so badly injured, how can you tie the bandage so tightly?!" ”

Yuan Qin couldn't explain it clearly, and stood in place without saying a word.

Waiting for the doctor to prescribe the medicine, he pulled it to show Shi Ren, Shi Ren was lying on the couch in the next room, heard Yuan Qin's shout, did he have the strength to go out to see, he was already anxious, "What's wrong?" What's wrong with Miss? ”

Yuan Qin told Ling Chuchu about fainting, and Shi Ren was annoyed again, "It's me who is not good, I didn't expect Miss's body to ......"

Lu Qingran had been holding Ling Chuchu's hand all the time.

After knowing that the wounds on her body were all beaten by Ling Hongyuan, Lu Qingran was even more angry with herself, if she could be tougher, she wouldn't have to be tortured by King Zhennan's divorce.

He should have married Chu Chu home earlier, a little earlier.

"Chu Chu ......"

Because he found it in time, a bowl of medicine went down, and after about half an hour, Ling Chuchu sweated, and slowly opened his eyes.

"Why are you here?"

Her face was still pale, but there was finally a little bit of blood on her lips, Lu Qingran looked at her cracked smile at herself, and she was so angry that she couldn't say anything cruel, "It's all hurt, do you care what those people think of you?" It's not okay to lie in bed and recuperate......"

Ling Chuchu pursed his lips and smiled, "I have to use my best to enter the circle of nobles in the capital again, otherwise I will get married in the future, how can I find out the news for Second Young Master Lu?" ”

Lu Qingran was blocked and speechless, "You don't have to ......"

"Hiss......" Ling Chuchu gasped, "When I saw my father take out the whip, I only felt terrible, and when it hit myself, I realized that it hurts......"

"So you, don't be so reckless in the future." Lu Qingran cautiously helped Ling Chuchu turn around, "The King of Zhennan went to the battlefield at the age of thirteen, and after decades of bloody rain, he was really angry, how can you be a weak woman?" ”

Ling Chuchu nodded.

His eyes were a little fierce, "They made me suffer such a big loss, I will definitely not let them have a good time!" ”

Let the king of Zhennan suppress her, then bear Ling Hongyuan's anger well.

Lu Qingran smiled, approached Ling Chuchu and said, "Ten years ago, when the King of Zhennan returned to the dynasty, he asked me for a one-person-tall jade coral, which is very precious. A while ago, I heard that an emerald coral statue also appeared in the Gu family......"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Aunt Gu has been in charge of the palace for so many years, and she has used the money from the palace to subsidize the family, as long as the aunt in the palace does not have a Buick buckle, it is not a big deal, but if she took away the prince's favorite object, it is not easy to say.

Lu Qingran pinched the quilt for Ling Chuchu, "I'm leaving, the happy events of Master Fang's family must be seen." ”

Ling Chuchu smiled and nodded.

It took 100 days for her muscles and bones to move, and her flesh and skin injuries also took more than half a month to recover before she scabbed over and was able to go out.

Yuan Qin helped her to stand in the gazebo, the stove in her hand was still not hot enough, and Shi Ren just came to report that the charcoal sent was no longer enough.

Nowadays, it is the coldest time of winter in the capital.

Just took this opportunity to give Aunt Gu a head-on blow.

"Daughter greets daddy."

Ling Chuchu was wearing a small jacket, her cheeks were red by the wind, and she looked very petite and cute.

The last time she did it, she lay on the bed for so long, and Ling Hongyuan regretted it afterwards.

Now looking at Ling Chuchu's lively appearance, he was extremely happy, and beckoned her to sit beside him, "How are you doing lately?" ”

Ling Chuchu smiled, "After taking the medicine, it's almost fine." ”

Intentionally or unintentionally, he rubbed his hand against Ling Hongyuan's hand, and Ling Hongyuan shivered, "What's wrong?" Is it that Daddy's fire wall is not hot enough, why are his hands so cold? ”

Aunt Gu instantly guessed that she was here to sue, and hurriedly said: "The little girl loves beauty, and if she wears less, she will naturally be cold." ”

As he spoke, he pulled Ling Chuchu down from King Zhennan's side without moving, replaced his hand stove, and said, "You kid, the injuries on your body are not healed, and then learn from those noble girls outside who love beauty and are not afraid of cold, don't you want to let the prince worry about you in vain?" ”

Ling Hongyuan nodded: "Yes, I will wear more cold in the future, I can't do this anymore." ”

"Yes, my daughter knows."

Ling Chuchu nodded, leaned forward coquettishly, and said, "My daughter is here today because she wants to ask her father for permission." ”

"Tell me something."

Ling Chuchu glanced at Aunt Gu inadvertently, and said: "That's the case, a few days ago, several sisters came to see their daughter, and mentioned that Aunt Gu's mother's family got a one-person-high jade coral, and my daughter remembered that we also had it in our house, and I wanted to blow the sea mouth out for a while, and I wanted to ask my father to agree to move the coral out of the warehouse and give everyone a palm!" ”

Ling Hongyuan laughed: "Oh, you said that jade coral, it has been more than ten years since the emperor gave it, right?" It's always in the storeroom, and it's good to take it out and see the light. ”

Ling Chuchu smiled a little embarrassed, "Daddy, my daughter has a big mouth, let them come and see it today, they are about to enter the mansion, daddy ......"

Aunt Gu secretly said that it was not good, and was about to speak, when she saw that Ling Hongyuan had already taken the key to the treasury to Ling Chuchu.
