Chapter 296: Prayer
I thought the general was a righteous gentleman, but I didn't expect that like other men, he was full of lies, he was obviously awake, but he kept pretending to be asleep, if it was spread out, I don't know how the people of Xiao Guo should feel. ”
Qian Qianqian tried her best to calm down, her kung fu was not weak at all, although her body couldn't move, she was not willing to admit defeat.
"Well, General Ben doesn't mind if you pass on the boudoir pleasures between us."
Xiao Mohan laughed sullenly and hugged Qian Qianqian tighter, not as alienated and cold as before, which made Qian Qianqian eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.
"What boudoir fun? Sling the bull. ”
Qian Qianqian's old face turned red, she couldn't help it, and raised her hand to push Xiao Mohan away.
"Hiss-" Xiao Mohan covered his left shoulder, couldn't help but sigh, his face became more and more pale, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his expression was very painful.
"What's wrong with you?" Qian Qianqian suddenly panicked, and then supported Xiao Mohan and diagnosed Xiao Mohan's pulse, and her heart hung in her throat.
"Qian Qianqian, are you going to murder your husband?" Xiao Mohan frowned, his eyes were deep, and he couldn't see it at a glance, and beads of sweat slid down his forehead, soaking the clothes on his chest.
Qian Qianqian suddenly raised her eyes, withdrew her hand, pursed her red lips slightly, and her face was slightly coquettish.
"Husband? Where is it? Qian Qianqian looked left and right, pretending to be puzzled, but she didn't look at Xiao Mohan, which made Xiao Mohan very embarrassed.
Xiao Mohan suddenly raised his hand, pinched Qian Qianqian's chin, and fixed her face in front of his eyes.
"My husband is here." Xiao Mohan lightly hooked his thin lips, his tone was gentle, with a unique magnetism, his long eyebrows were in his temples, his eyes were burning, and his eyebrows were heroic.
Qian Qianqian wanted to shake her head and break away from Xiao Mohan's hand, but Xiao Mohan squeezed it tightly, she couldn't break free at all, so she could only stare at Xiao Mohan angrily.
What made her wonder was that it was clear that Xiao Mohan was injured and poisoned, and he couldn't do his luck, why was his hand strength still so big? It was just overwhelming for her.
Before I knew it, it was dawn outside, and the house was brightened, and there was a knock at the door.
Qian Qianqian knew that it was Xue Yi who came with washing water, so she got up slowly, walked to the door, and opened the door, which was really as she expected.
"Miss Qian, hasn't General Xiao woken up yet?" Xue Yi looked at Qian Qianqian's tired face, and there was no joy at all, and she couldn't help but have some ominous premonitions in her heart.
"Cough ......" Suddenly, there were a few coughs inside, Xue Yi's face changed greatly, and her eyes were full of surprise.
"This is General Xiao?" Xue Yi couldn't believe it, obviously Xiao Mohan hadn't shown any signs of waking up when he left last night, why did he suddenly wake up? And Qian Qianqian didn't even make a noise.
"Yes, General Ben is awake, you can come in."
Xiao Mo spoke coldly, although his voice was a little vain, but it was still majestic, no matter what time it was, his general's majesty was always there.
Qian Qianqian turned sideways and let Xue Yi walk straight in, Xiao Mohan sat on the edge of the bed, although his robe was a little loose, but it couldn't hide his elegance.
"Subordinates, see generals."
Xue Yi put down the hot water in her hand, and knelt down to salute Xiao Mohan, her face full of joy that could not be hidden.
"Get up." Xiao Mohan didn't look at Xue Yi more, but just responded lightly, and Xue Yi stood up.
"General, since you are awake, why don't you invite Dr. Zhao to take a look, if there are any problems, you can find out earlier."
Xue Yi bowed slightly, kindly reminding that although she didn't know what happened last night, as long as Xiao Mohan could wake up, it would be a good thing.
"No need, there is Qianqian to adjust General Ben's body, don't bother Dr. Zhao, I still have something for you to do."
Xiao Mohan frowned and thought about it, and glanced at Xue Yi lightly, his deep eyes revealing an indescribable mystery.
"What's the matter? Please make it clear to the general that as long as his subordinates can do it, he will do his best to do it. ”
Xue Yi said very surely, she was originally Xiao Mohan's dead soldier, so naturally she listened to Xiao Mohan for everything, and did not dare to disobey anything.
"When I came to the General's Mansion, everything went wrong, and I suffered a misfortune again, and I was seriously injured, and it should have been the General's Mansion that ignored something, which caused the dissatisfaction of God, and the gods and Buddhas did not bless it, so I had to ask the highest-ranking woman in this Mansion to go to the temple to pray for blessings and pray for peace for the General's Mansion."
Xiao Mohan spoke unhurriedly, although he didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning was already very clear, he didn't have a main room, and his biological mother died early, so looking at the general's mansion, the woman with the highest status was the three side concubines given to him by the emperor.
"You mean, let the three of Mrs. Li go to the temple to pray for blessings?" Xue Yi suddenly understood in her heart, but she was a little unsure, so she asked Xiao Mohan rhetorically.
"Not bad." Xiao Mohan spit out two words lightly, there was no ripple in his deep eyes, and his face was full of indescribable indifference and alienation.
"This is indeed a good thing for the General's Mansion, so how long are you going to let Mrs. Li and the three of you go?"
Xue Yi understood Xiao Mohan's intentions, and letting the three women go to the temple was naturally not as simple as praying for blessings.
"Praying for blessings is a delicate matter, and it must be sincere, and it is best to let them live in the temple for three and five years, and pray for the general's mansion with all their hearts, so that the general's mansion can be blessed deeply and endlessly."
Xiao Mohan thought for a moment, then slowly spoke, and said it as a matter of course.
"For such a long time, my subordinates are afraid that Mrs. Li and others will not want to go." Xue Yi had some worries in her heart, Mrs. Li and the three of them were not fuel-efficient lamps, so if they were allowed to stay in the temple for so long, wouldn't they drive them to become nuns? So how are they willing to go?
"It depends on your ability, Xueyi, you have been by my side for so many years, just a few women, I believe you can solve it."
Xiao Mohan wasn't worried at all, Xue Yi felt embarrassed, but she didn't come up with a corresponding solution, but if it was really forced to do that, Xue Yi would definitely handle the matter.
"Thank you for the general's trust, my subordinates will definitely handle this matter."
Xue Yi knew Xiao Mohan's order, so she didn't have any reason to take it back, so since Xiao Mohan trusted her so much, she didn't say much, nodded and agreed.
"You go down, it's enough for Qianqian to be here, if it's okay in the future, just guard outside, don't come in."
Xiao Mohan lifted his thin lips lightly, and said a little casually, but there was no lack of majesty, Xue Yi glanced at Qian Qianqian, but still retreated respectfully and closed the door.
"If you send those three side concubines to the temple, aren't you afraid that the emperor will be furious when he finds out?"
Qian Qianqian was very puzzled, she didn't expect Xiao Mohan to tell Xue Yi this, and sure enough, Xiao Mohan didn't perfunctory her before.
"On the emperor's side, I will explain that I am injured now, what's wrong with those women going to the temple to pray for blessings? The whole Xiao country, whether it is the royal family or the commoners, all believe in their fate. ”
Xiao Mohan didn't think so, his injuries this time couldn't be in vain, and those who were hiding in the shadows to harm him, he would definitely find out one by one.
"The people in your royal family are really ruthless and unjust, those three side concubines are all young women, you let them go to the temple to take them for three years and five years, wouldn't it be in vain to waste the good years of others? When they come out of the temple again, even if they want to remarry, they will have no chance at all. ”
Qian Qianqian let out a long sigh and sighed deliberately like this, and glanced at Xiao Mohan unconsciously, as if observing Xiao Mohan's reaction.
"Don't worry, their backgrounds are not low, even if they stay in the temple until they are seventy or eighty, as long as they want to marry after they come out, it is not a problem."
Xiao Mohan spoke lightly, there was no superfluous look on his face, he was well versed in the way of being an official in the court when he was still the Nine Emperor Princes, and he also knew that the royal family and nobles marryed each other, and it was never about pleasing each other, but about weighing the pros and cons, so as long as it was a woman with a good background, whether she was old or ugly, whether she had been married in the past, there was no shortage of people who came to ask for relatives.
"I see, then I can only wronged them."
Qian Qianqian nodded slightly, although she said so, she kept sighing in her heart, she didn't expect that this ancient world cared so much about her famous background, and sure enough, everyone loved power, no matter where she went.
Xue Yi's movements were very fast, and Xiao Mohan's order was announced with a thunderous force in the East Courtyard, and the three of Mrs. Li were all stunned.
Since they entered this general's mansion, until now, they have almost never seen Xiao Mohan, let alone be pampered, right now none of them want to be the first to get Xiao Mohan's favor, but now Xiao Mohan has given such an order, doesn't this want them to die alone in the temple?
"I'm not going, how can the general be so ruthless, send us to the temple, I want to see the general!"
"I also want to see the general, I have admired the general since I was a child, how could the general give such an order?"
Mrs. Li and the three of them made a fuss, all of them were full of unwillingness, Xue Yi made a look, and the maid who was guarding outside walked in and grabbed Mrs. Li and the three.
"Ladies, this is what General Xiao means, no matter how you make trouble, this result will not change at all, because the general is recuperating from his injuries, he doesn't like to make noise, and he has no time to take care of you, even if you shout in your throat, the general can't hear it."
Xue Yi stood in front of her, her face calm, and glanced coldly at Mrs. Li and the others, her face full of indescribable ridicule and contempt.
These pampered women who have been pampered since childhood are all stupid and ignorant straw bales, and they can't get into Xiao Mohan's eyes at all, so Xue Yi also asked them to disturb Xiao Mohan.
"Praying for the General's Mansion is a great good thing, if you can really make the General's Mansion prosperous, it is really a merit, and when you come back in the future, the General will definitely reward you, so you still don't have to cry anymore, if you let the General know, you don't want to pray for the General's Mansion at all, you say, will he still pamper you?"
Xue Yi deliberately bit the word "prayer", so that Mrs. Li and the three of them couldn't shirk it, Xiao Mohan didn't have a lady in the main room, and none of them went to pray for the general's mansion in several side rooms, it was really too much, if it was passed out, Xiao Mohan would be able to give them a letter of resignation.
"You all pack a few underwear, the carriage is ready, set off in three hours, send you to the Hanyue Temple in the north of the capital, and ask you to take pictures of the general's mansion, pray sincerely, and do the bearing and duty that a side concubine should have."
Xue Yi saw that Mrs. Li and the others were quiet, so she immediately explained.
