090 Retribution

Chu Lingxiao suddenly stopped, and the big girl behind him didn't know why, so she whispered: "Master Hou? ”

Could it be that he is infected with a wind chill? Chu Lingxiao rubbed his eyebrows again, and ordered: "You go and talk to Aunt Jiang, Ben Hou has a headache, and he won't go today." "So as not to give the illness to Shan'er.

The eldest girl hurriedly responded, a touch of envy flashed in her eyes, and said secretly: Master Hou is really single-minded to Aunt Jiang. The people in this Hou Mansion said that if it wasn't for Mrs. Hou halfway through, Aunt Jiang and Hou Ye's childhood sweetheart grew up together, maybe she would be the current Mrs. Hou.

The big girl went in the direction of Qinghui Courtyard, Chu Lingxiao turned his head and glanced at the main courtyard, and Chu Yunmu's scratched right face flashed in his mind, and his eyes were dark.

He didn't expect that the injured person would be Chu Yunmu.

He knew that Chu Qianchen had often practiced archery with Chu Yunmu in the martial arts arena recently, so he asked people to quietly change the bowstring of the Jurchen bow and replace it with an old bowstring that would break if it was used three or four times.

The Jurchen bow was used by Chu Qianchen, and the person who was originally injured should have been Chu Qianchen.

As a result, what he didn't expect was that it was Chu Yunmu who was accidentally scratched by the broken bowstring in his face.

In the final analysis, it was all a moth tossed out by Chu Qianchen, and she gave Chu Yunmu her own bow to use in a dignified manner, so that Chu Yunmu could suffer this unwarranted disaster.

Chu Yunmu is still young, and if he is frightened this time, it is inevitable that he will be prone to wind evil into his body, so he is infected with wind and cold and suffers in vain!

Shen is the same, obviously when she was shooting arrows at that time, she was also present, watching Chu Yunmu use Chu Qianchen's big bow, and she didn't know where to stop!

Fortunately, Chu Yunmu only had a small cut on his face, and he would be fine if he raised it for a few days, and he would not leave a scar.

The Shen family made a fuss afterwards, he had to pinch the jar of perfect ointment and hold on, otherwise, how could he ......

In the middle of his thoughts, Chu Lingxiao returned to the outer study.

His head became even more dizzy, and he ordered the eldest maid to light the incense and went to bed early.

This night, Chu Lingxiao slept very unsteadily and dreamed.

He dreamed that Chu Yunmu fell from the rockery that time and failed to save him, after that, the Shen family became more and more estranged from him, he asked for the eldest son to be the son, and the excerpt was pressed by the emperor, and the emperor said "no country except for the childless".

The title of their Yongding Marquis Mansion was broken in his generation.

Chu Lingxiao opened his eyes in shock, gasping for breath between his mouth and nose, and then he knew that he was dreaming.

The big maid who was keeping watch heard the movement and came in and poured him a cup of warm tea.

After drinking the tea, Chu Lingxiao fell asleep again, closed his eyes, and began to dream again.

He dreamed that Chu Yunmu had accidentally cut the blood veins on his neck by the broken bowstring the day before, and blood spurted out like a spring. He was also on the martial arts arena, struggling to cover the wound on Chu Yunmu's neck with his hands, but he couldn't stop the surging blood......

Rivers of blood.

He dreamed that the Shen clan had sued Jingzhao Mansion, saying that someone in the Hou Mansion had plotted to kill Chu Yunmu.

Jingzhao Mansion accepted the case because of the pressure of the Mu Guogong Mansion, but it turned out that someone had replaced the bowstring of the Jurchen bow, and the little guy couldn't resist the pressure and recruited him.

As a result, everyone in the world accused him of spoiling his concubine and killing his wife, and he did not hesitate to murder his son-in-law for the sake of his concubine, and he had no humanity.

The emperor decreed that he took away the title of the Marquis of Yongding!

Chu Lingxiao opened his eyes again, and sat up from the couch all of a sudden, sweating profusely.

Sweat soaked sideburns and mid-coat.

He tried to bring the tea to the bedside, but with a shake of his hand, the teacup slipped from his hand, and the teacup fell to the ground beside the bed, falling apart, and the sound was loud in the silent middle of the night.

This movement alarmed the big girl again.

"Master Hou!"

The eldest maid called worriedly, always feeling that something was wrong with the Hou Ye.

She thought that Hou Ye had said that she had a headache before, so she wanted to ask if she wanted to ask for a doctor, however, Chu Lingxiao had already put on a robe casually, strode past her, and only dropped a sentence:

"Ben Hou go out for a walk!"

Chu Lingxiao went to the martial arts arena.

His heart was flustered, and the scenes in his dreams flashed back in his mind chaotically, upsetting him.

He simply led a horse and wanted to ride a horse in the racecourse next to the martial arts arena to breathe.

On the fourth watch, the night is thick, and everything is silent.

There was only one person and one horse in the racecourse, and Chu Lingxiao, who was uneasy, took the horse whip and whipped the brown horse under him.

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”

The brown horse's nose was spewing rough air, and the faster it ran, the faster it ran......

Even when turning, the horse's speed did not slow down, Chu Lingxiao lowered his body, and he didn't want to, one of the front hooves of the brown horse was tripped over a stone.

The brown horse let out a frightened neighing sound, its legs were raised high, its body was almost straight, and it also threw Chu Lingxiao off the horse's back.

All this happened between the lightning and flint, Chu Lingxiao was caught off guard, and before he could unload his momentum, he had already fallen to the ground.

"Click."

The sound of bones breaking broke with his cries of pain that broke the silence of the night.

Immediately after, another hoarse scream rang out.

The entire Hou Mansion was alarmed.

The news spread to the main courtyard for the first time.

"Madam, Master Hou fell on his horse in the racecourse, accidentally broke his leg bone, and was later stepped on by the horse on the broken leg......" Mama Chen said.

She also knew about Chu Lingxiao's change of medicine, and when she heard the news, she couldn't help but feel a kind of sigh that the way of heaven was good for reincarnation and retribution.

Shen knew more than Mama Chen, and couldn't help but think of the look that Chu Qianchen handed him, and looked in the direction of the blue gauze cabinet with a complicated expression.

Chu Qianchen was afraid that Chu Yunmu would have any recurrence at night, so he rested in the Shen family's blue yarn cupboard tonight.

The stumbling movement in the blue gauze cupboard told Shen that Chu Qianchen should also be awake.

Chu Qianchen did wake up and heard Mama Chen's words.

Chu Qianchen got up slowly and put on a lilac-colored cloak for himself, his expression was indifferent, his movements were unhurried, and he was indescribably elegant and good-looking.

She was drugged in the cup of flower tea she made for Chu Lingxiao at dusk today, and the medicine was a kind of sandalwood.

When the effect of the medicine is triggered, it will make people experience the deepest fears and fears in their dreams.

When she mentioned the matter of Nanyang Wangfu to Chu Lingxiao, she deliberately planted a seed in his heart, and used sandalwood to promote the effect of the medicine in a timely manner.

Chu Lingxiao cares most about the title of the Hou Mansion, and in the next three days, he will experience what he fears the most in various ways over and over again in his dreams, and it is very realistic, as if he is there.

Three consecutive days of nightmares would make Chu Lingxiao mentally weakened.

And once people have a mental breakdown and are worried all day long, it is difficult to say what will happen in the end......

Chu Qianchen fastened the straps of his cloak and walked towards the outside of the blue yarn cupboard.

As a child, you can't choose your own parents, Chu Lingxiao is her biological father, just like Aunt Jiang, the relationship between blood and blood is not something that can be cleared up, although after experiencing what happened in her previous life, she has already broken off all her feelings for her biological father and mother, but she will not do anything to them.

At best, it is indifference.

However, Chu Lingxiao went too far this time.

For the sake of his selfishness, he secretly changed the ointment used by Chu Yunmu, and this behavior was simply the worst.

Chu Qianchen opened the curtain of Concubine Xiang and went out from the blue gauze cupboard, her eyes met the eyes of the Shen family looking at her.

In the house, only Shen and Mama Chen were there.

Chu Qianchen said calmly: "It's 'Nightmare Three Nights'. ”

"If you take 'Nightmare for Three Nights', you will have nightmares at night, and you will have nightmares for three nights, and night after night will be more difficult than night after night."

Three nightmares in a row are enough to drive people to exhaustion, and their minds are on the verge of collapse.

"Maybe this nightmare is too real."

It was so real that it made him weak, made him nervous, and made him fall off the horse restlessly.

Chu Qianchen's eyes were clear, and he didn't hide the meaning of the Shen family at all.

Mama Chen was shocked when she heard this, she didn't expect the second girl to be able to do this for the fourth young master, as if the fourth young master was more important to her than everything in this Hou Mansion.

Shen was in a complicated mood, some were moved, some were surprised, some were happy, and more often felt distressed for Chu Qianchen.

Chu Lingxiao treated Chu Yunmu like this, Shen couldn't swallow this breath, how to teach Chu Lingxiao this should have been something that her mother should consider, but Chu Qianchen did it for her.

"Sister Chen," Shen took Chu Qianchen's hand and pulled her to sit down beside him, "With me here, you don't need to be so tired." ”

Chu Qianchen was stunned.

No one had ever said this to her, not even the prince.

In his previous life, the prince knew that his life was short, and he always taught her as much as possible.

He told her that no one can protect another person for a lifetime, and that people still have to rely on themselves after all, and they still die alone after all.

Even if she is not reborn, after avenging the prince, she will live well until the end of her life, and she will live up to the prince's teaching to her.

Chu Qianchen flashed slightly, faintly exuding a strong and weak loneliness, looking at Shen's eyes, he only felt that his heart hurt as if he had been stabbed.

Shen gently grabbed Chu Qianchen's shoulders and let her lean on her shoulder.

The room was quiet for a while, and there were faint voices of some subordinates outside, sandwiched with words such as "Hou Ye", "Falling Horse", and "Doctor".

Mama Chen pursed her lower lip hesitantly and asked, "Madam, do you want to go and see ...... "Master Hou?"

"No need." Shen refused without hesitation.

After this incident, the Shen family was extremely disappointed in Chu Lingxiao, and she didn't even want to give her face.

"Oh! Oh! Oh! ”

Outside the house, there was a loud rooster crow, signaling the beginning of another day.

The sky was bright.

Shen didn't go to see Chu Lingxiao, but when Mrs. Tai learned about it, she rushed over as soon as possible.

Dr. He from Baicaotang has already arrived, and he is in the inner room.

Chu Lingxiao was lying on the couch against the wall, his face was so white that there was no trace of blood, the hair on his sideburns was soaked with cold sweat, the trouser leg on his left leg had already been cut open by scissors, and his left leg was twisted at a weird angle.

Just looking at it like this, Mrs. Tai felt empathy and pain.

Chu Lingxiao let out an unbearable moan of pain, and his body squirmed and twitched because of this.

Seeing this, Dr. He was anxious and hurriedly said, "Quick! Hold him down and don't let him move, if he hurts his leg again, the broken bones will be even more messy. ”

The surrounding servants and maids were also frightened, and hurriedly pressed Chu Lingxiao's limbs.

"Doctor He, how is Master Hou's legs?" Mrs. Tai asked nervously.

Doctor He's eyebrows tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "Mrs. Chu, Master Hou fell off the horse and only fractured his left leg, but later the injured leg was trampled by the horse, and the bones were completely broken, and there were at least four breaks. ”

Doctor He took a deep breath and said with difficulty: "The villain can't take the bones for the Hou Ye, there is no way to take the bones." ”

What the?! Mrs. Tai gasped and leaned back, almost fainting.

The two big maids beside her hurriedly supported her and gave her comfort at the same time.

Mrs. Tai relieved herself and asked again, "Doctor He, how could Master Hou ...... Hurt so badly? ”

Doctor He was also afraid that Mrs. Tai would be scared sick, but Chu Lingxiao's injuries were too serious, and those ugly words had to be said in advance, otherwise if this could not be cured, the Yongding Marquis Mansion would not run to smash their Baicaotang like smashing Jishitang.

Their Baicaotang is not like Jishitang, which has the support of King Chen.

Doctor He said stubbornly: "Moreover, even if Master Hou's leg injury is healed, I am afraid that he will be left with a disability, which will be lame at least and bad at worst." ”

Doctor He said it mildly, what he meant was that Yongdinghou was afraid that he would have to rely on crutches to walk in the future.

For Mrs. Tai, this news was like a bolt from the blue.

She held her breath in her chest, almost didn't catch her breath, her face was pale, and she felt that her heart was about to stop.

It's only been one night, and her eldest son is about to become a cripple.

Chu Lingxiao also heard Dr. He's words, and scolded angrily: "Quack, what a quack!" ”

In just seven words, he said it with great difficulty, and sweat poured out.

Doctor He's face was not very good-looking, but he didn't dare to face Chu Lingxiao head-on, after all, the people didn't fight.

He frowned in embarrassment, and said in a hard voice: "Mrs. Tai, the villain is really powerless. Each has its own specialization in this medical path, and the villain is not good at orthopedics. ”

"Tai Hospital has Dr. Zhou, who is good at orthopedics, or ......"

He paused, then stopped.

Mama Wang hurriedly asked, "Doctor He, you are talking!" ”

"The miracle doctor of Jishitang may be able to save ......" The reason why Dr. He hesitated was also because the Yongding Marquis Mansion had smashed Jishitang before, and the two sides had already made a feud.

Having said that, he actually felt that there was little hope in his heart.

The bones of the broken leg are broken into several pieces, unless the flesh of the wounded leg is cut and the broken bones are put together, and then the broken bones are healed......

Jishitang. Mrs. Tai's expression was stiff, and a little cold sweat oozed from her cold head, and she also remembered Chu Qianling's smashing of Jishitang.

She saw that her son was in a terrible pain, and she was even more distressed, and hurriedly said: "Doctor He, you see that Master Hou is in a terrible pain, is there a way to relieve his pain first?" ”

"The villain has already prescribed a prescription for Hou Ye to relieve pain. Other...... The villain is really powerless, please ask another master. ”

Dr. He didn't wait for Mrs. Tai to agree, so he hurriedly left, for fear of being stopped.

Chu Lingxiao on the couch was still venting and scolding things like "quack" and "incompetent", on the one hand, he despised Dr. He's medical skills, and on the other hand, he was afraid that he would be lame if he really said what Dr. He said.

Seeing this, Mrs. Tai didn't want to keep Dr. He, so she hurriedly ordered: "Mama Wang, hurry up and let someone go to Jishitang to find a divine doctor." ”

"Let's get a few more orthopedic doctors!"

Mama Wang hurriedly went out.

There was a lot of excitement inside and outside the house, and there were many people from other rooms in the courtyard who came to inquire about Chu Lingxiao's injuries.

Mrs. Tai personally wiped Chu Lingxiao's sweat, comforted him, and told him that they could ask the concubine to invite Imperial Doctor Zhou to come and see him for him......

After a while, the maid came with the freshly boiled soup and medicine, and hurriedly went to feed Chu Lingxiao the medicine.

Mrs. Tai only had time to ask Chu Lingxiao's eldest maid: "What the hell is going on?" How could Hou Ye run to the racecourse to ride a horse in the middle of the night?! ”

The big maid's face was pale, her expression was panicked, and she was afraid that she would be angered by Mrs. Tai, so she said timidly: "Mrs. Tai, the slave doesn't know." ”

"The slave just saw that Hou Ye had not slept well last night, and he seemed to be caught in a nightmare at night, and he woke up several times."

"In the middle of the night, Hou Ye suddenly ran out alone...... Then he fell off his horse. ”

The big girl didn't know that he had broken his leg until a few little guys lifted Chu Lingxiao over.

Chu Lingxiao quickly drank the medicine, but the wound was still painful, and there was no sign of slowing down.

After a while, two more doctors came, some of them examined Chu Lingxiao's injured leg, and some gave him needles to relieve the pain, however, the doctors all shook their heads, saying that they couldn't be cured, and asked the Hou Mansion to invite another Gao Ming, and after that, they all left in a hurry.

Whether it was decoction or needles, it didn't help Chu Lingxiao at all, his broken leg still hurt, and the pain made his face turn three points whiter.

"Mother, come into the palace and invite the concubine ......"

"I'm in so much pain."

"Mother, I can't be lame."

“……”

Chu Lingxiao was so painful that he was almost incoherent, and he was dripping with cold sweat.

Mrs. Tai also wanted to enter the palace to ask for help from the concubine, but when she entered the palace, she had to hand a sign to the palace first, and it would inevitably be delayed for a while, and it would be good to get the news from the concubine in the afternoon.

It's better to act at both ends, to the nearest famous doctor in Jishitang, or......

Mrs. Tai's heart moved, and she hurriedly asked, "What about the eldest lady?" ”

The maid's expression was a little embarrassed, and she said crampedly: "Mrs. Tai, the eldest lady has not come yet." ”

Mrs. Tai's face suddenly seemed to be stained with ink, and it became even more ugly.

The Shen family is the mistress of the Hou Mansion, not to mention the other rooms, the Shen family must have received the news that Chu Lingxiao fell off the horse, but he hasn't come yet!

Mrs. Tai's heart jumped to the top of her head with a burst of fire, and she didn't care that there were other subordinates beside her, so she reprimanded: "How is this Shen Zhi a wife, how can she be a housewife!" Does she think that she was born in the Guogong Mansion, so she can even ignore her husband?! ”

These few words simply spoke to Chu Lingxiao's heart.

Yes, Shen Zhi relied on his high background, how could he have taken his husband in his eyes!

The few slaves and maids in the room all lowered their eyebrows and pleasing their eyes, wishing that they didn't exist at all, and they hadn't heard these words at all.

Mrs. Tai said angrily: "Why don't you hurry up and call the eldest lady!" ”

The little maid only agreed, hurried out, and rushed to the main courtyard.

She didn't come back for a long time, and in the middle, the doctor came three or four, and the result was the same four words: powerless.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Shen was late. She came after freshening up and having breakfast, and she was dressed very decently.

Looking at her noble and graceful appearance, Mrs. Tai became angry.

Her husband is seriously injured like this, but shouldn't a serious woman be worried, plain clothes?

Mrs. Tai wanted to scold, but she finally endured it, and said in a stiff voice: "Ah Zhi, you hurry over and see Ah Xiao, the doctor said that his leg is seriously injured." ”

"I heard that the divine doctor of the Jishitang is not very old, and I don't know if it is reliable, I think I still have to find the imperial doctor to take a look......

Mrs. Tai looked at the Shen family expectantly, and it was too time-consuming to enter the palace to ask Chu Guifei to come forward to invite the imperial doctor, she hoped that the Shen family could let the Mu Guogong Mansion come forward and quickly invite the imperial doctor Zhou to come over, so that her son could suffer less crimes.

Shen didn't speak, his deep eyes looked at Chu Lingxiao on the couch, looking at him sweating profusely, looking at him in pain, looking at his twisted broken leg......

Shen remembered Chu Yunmu's high fever, because Chu Lingxiao secretly changed the ointment, so that Chu Yunmu burned for two nights, if it weren't for Chu Qianchen's wonderful hand to rejuvenate, what would happen to Chu Yunmu?!

They have been married for many years, and they were originally married overnight, but the relationship between husband and wife has long been exhausted in the past ten years.

The Shen family can no matter how much Chu Lingxiao loves his concubine, even if he digs up his own heart and liver for Aunt Jiang, she doesn't care, but he shouldn't put his hand on Chu Yunmu.

The son is her reverse scale!

Moreover, for the sake of Aunt Jiang, Chu Lingxiao even had to calculate his own daughter, and he did not hesitate to use his hands and feet on that Jurchen bow, which also made Shen feel cold.

The tiger is poisonous and does not eat seeds.

Chu Qianchen, does he still have a heart?!

Shen stared at the painful Chu Lingxiao steadily, not feeling pity in his heart, but feeling happy: he broke his leg today, which can be regarded as self-inflicted, and the retribution is unpleasant.

Mrs. Tai didn't pay attention to Shen's eyes, she just looked at Chu Lingxiao distressedly, and said in a chattering voice: "Ah Zhi, you see him in pain like this, his lips are white, and he breaks out in a cold sweat. Wipe his sweat quickly......"

She felt in her heart that her eldest daughter-in-law was too disagreeable, shouldn't she take the initiative to wipe her husband's sweat and feed her water, and she still had to teach her mother-in-law about this little thing?

"Let Aunt Jiang serve." Shen interrupted Mrs. Tai with a faint expression.

She turned her head and directly ordered Mama Chen to go to Qinghui Courtyard to call someone.

Mrs. Tai: "......"

Mrs. Tai was shocked, more displeased, and inexplicable.

In the past, the Shen family was not like this, although she and her eldest son Chu Lingxiao could not say much affection, they were also respectful of each other, and they respected Chu Lingxiao on their faces.

Five years ago, Chu Lingxiao had urticaria, the symptoms came urgently, his reaction was great, headache, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, etc., at that time, Shen served him at his couch for three days, sleepless.

And now, she seems to be a different person.

Thinking that the Shen family deliberately mentioned Aunt Jiang, Mrs. Tai said in her heart: Could it be that she is jealous?

A dignified and dignified housewife is so ungraceful! It's unreasonable to be jealous of a concubine!

Mrs. Tai felt that she was the truth, she sank her face and scolded: "Ah Zhi, what are you talking about!" ”

Chu Lingxiao was also unhappy, feeling that Shen was disgusting him, and shouted: "Shen Zhi, what do you mean?!" ”

The mother and son are louder than the other.

Facing the thunderous mother and son, Shen was as calm as water, as if he was looking at two jumping clowns.

"Master Hou, how did you break your leg, don't you count it in your heart?" Shen looked at Chu Lingxiao calmly and asked.

Chu Lingxiao was still a little panicked and unsettled because of those nightmares last night and broken his leg, and when he heard Shen Shi say this, his face immediately changed, as if he was being held against the key point with a sharp blade.

Mrs. Tai was stunned, what did Shen mean by her son's fall from a horse?

"Zhi, what the hell do you mean?" Mrs. Tai couldn't help but ask, thinking that why did the Shen family sell something there.

Shen hooked his lips and smiled, raised his hand and pointed at Chu Lingxiao and said, "You asked him." ”

Shen's eyes were sharp and cold, and he looked at Chu Lingxiao directly, and said, "This is retribution." ”

"This is his retribution for mutilating his parents and children!"

Shen said almost word for word, his voice getting colder and colder.

"......" Chu Lingxiao's eyes were almost extreme in an instant, and it was difficult to hide his shock.

He couldn't help but think of the two nightmares tonight, especially the second nightmare in which the Shen family sued Jingzhao Mansion, leaving him with nothing left......

The more Chu Lingxiao thought about it, the more he felt that the dream was very evil, at this moment, his mind was in chaos, and he didn't know whether it was more panic or more pain.

A chill ran through his heart, and the lingering nightmare haunted him like maggots on tarsal bones.

Chu Lingxiao's face turned even paler.
