Chapter 44: Seriously Wounded
The corners of Zhao Hengzhi's mouth twitched a few times, and he had no choice but to silently accept what Yu Langyan gave him. Promise to agree, but whether you meet Chu Xiao again, whether Chu Xiao is willing to write an inscription depends on Yu Langyan's luck.
Zhao Hengzhi and Meng Yanqi said goodbye to a few of them and walked in the direction of the Hou Ye's Mansion. He vaguely felt as if someone was following him behind him.
Zhao Hengzhi had no choice but to stop, according to Zhao Hengzhi's intuition, he felt that the person who was following him should be a woman, and it was very likely that it was a woman who had been secretly in love with him for a long time.
"Come out!" Zhao Hengzhi shouted loudly.
A red shadow flashed, and Ye Junjun appeared in front of Zhao Hengzhi.
"How are you?" Zhao Hengzhi was quite surprised, after all, Ye Junjun had not appeared in front of him since he came back from Tingyulou. I don't know how Ye Junjun is as sick as before and likes to follow him.
Ye Junjun cried with a sad face, and said with teary eyes: "Brother Hengzhi, save me quickly!" ”
"Junjun, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Hengzhi couldn't see the girl crying, and when he saw her so sad, he also worried.
Ye Junjun took out his handkerchief, wiped a handful of tears, and then choked up: "My father wants to marry me to the third son of the prime minister...... Su Yan...... Woowoo woo ......"
"Su Yan?" Zhao Hengzhi recalled Su Yan's appearance in his mind, the third son of the prime minister's family, Zhao Hengzhi had also seen it, that body shape, fat like a fat pig, this is not the most terrifying, the most terrible thing is that there is a matchmaker mole on the corner of Su Yan's mouth.
"Yes, that kind of pig's head, how could I marry him! Woo woo woo-" Ye Junjun cried more and more miserably.
"So, you're not going to run away from home, are you?" Zhao Hengzhi suddenly noticed that Ye Junjun was still carrying a cyan burden on his shoulders.
Ye Junjun wiped away his tears, nodded hurriedly, and said, "That's right, I just want to run away from home!" Why don't I go to the Hou Ye's Mansion to avoid the limelight! ”
Ye Junjun's eyes lit up, as if he saw the dawn of hope, rather than wandering alone, it was better to go to the Hou Ye's Mansion to be safe.
Zhao Hengzhi sympathized with her situation, but he didn't know Ye Junjun for the first day, Ye Junjun is not easy to mess with, if he invites this plague god into the house, he will feel better.
At that time, Zhao Hengzhi hurriedly took a few steps back, waved his hand and said: "No, I have a tigress in my family, it's enough to make a fuss, I can't take you in anymore......"
Seeing Zhao Hengzhi refusing so ruthlessly, Ye Junjun suddenly pulled out a sword and put it around his neck.
"You say, will you let me go to the Hou Ye's Mansion?" Ye Junjun glared at him fiercely.
She also deliberately pressed a few points closer, and the sharp blade gently cut through Zhao Hengzhi's white neck, oozing a drop of blood.
"Ahh
"Okay, okay, I'll let you live!" Zhao Hengzhi finally relented, and he admonished again: "However, you have to keep your duty and don't cause any more trouble." ”
"I know, I know that Brother Hengzhi is the best!" Ye Junjun smiled like a flower, and she silently put away her sword.
Zhao Hengzhi walked in front to lead the way, and Ye Junjun walked behind him. Zhao Hengyi thought to himself as he walked, if Ye Junjun was allowed to walk in so grandly, he would definitely attract the attention of others.
He took Ye Junjun to the ready-to-wear workshop and bought a few suitable clothes for Ye Junjun.
"What a handsome boy!" Zhao Hengzhi touched his chin and looked at Ye Junjun, who was dressed as a man in front of him. Unexpectedly, Ye Junjun pretended to be a son-in-law, and he was also heroic and sassy, with a unique style.
At the same time, there was a handsome boy standing in the Hou Ye's mansion, his thin lips were pursed, and a glimmer of light flashed in his cold eyes.
He walked up to the guard guarding the door, took out a piece of silver, handed it to the guard, and said with a light smile: "Second son Zhao, who wants to find you in the next place, please be accommodating." ”
The guard smiled and accepted the silver, and said, "Our second son has gone out and has not come back yet." ”
Chu Xiao's face was pale, his one or two pieces of silver were given for nothing, and he hooked his lips and said, "Then I'll wait here." ”
"Lord Chu, your cheeks are really thick enough, you betrayed us last time, and you dare to come here this time!" A familiar voice sounded from behind Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiao turned around and saw Yao Yuran in a scarlet skirt.
"Second Mrs. Zhao, last time it was a misunderstanding, I was forced by the bandit leader, he forced me to put a poison, I gave you poison in order to protect myself." Chu Xiao's face was not red, and his heart was not beating and he was lying.
Yao Yuran looked at him in surprise: "What are you talking about?" ”
Chu Xiao nodded, and insisted: "Seriously!" Otherwise, how dare I appear in the Hou Ye's Mansion, isn't it killing myself? ”
Anyway, he had already panicked Zhao Hengzhi once, and there was not much difference between telling a lie once and saying it twice.
Yao Yuran also felt that what Chu Xiao said made some sense, and she said quietly: "Although you have betrayed us, but I, Yao Yuran, have always been grateful for my kindness, and I don't want to owe favors to others, I promised to pay you back before, you can follow me into the mansion to get it!" ”
Xing Yu and Qingzhu stood beside Yao Yuran, whispering timidly, they both had a good impression of the handsome Chu Xiao.
Yao Yuran raised his feet and walked into the Hou Ye's Mansion, and Chu Xiao followed behind Yao Yuran.
In the front hall, Yao Yuran's abacus crackled. She is also kind, not only carefully calculated the accommodation fee for her and Zhao Hengzhi to live in Tingyu Building, but also calculated the food fee.
"Lord Chu, I've calculated, we'll probably pay you one thousand and thirty taels...... You see if it's right. Yao Yuran handed the abacus to Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiao smiled, even if he didn't find General Lu's painting, he might get the silver given by Yao Yuran, and he wouldn't suffer a loss this time.
"That's right, that's it." Chu Xiao said with a smile.
Yao Yuran asked Xing Yu to go to the steward to get the silver ticket, the reason why Yao Yuran dared to do this was because she reported to Hou Ye in advance, saying that this Zhao Heng was very dangerous on the road, thanks to the owner of Tingyu Building.
"Second Mrs. Zhao, someone in Chu actually regards you as friends. However, since Second Lady Zhao calculated so carefully, it was better for someone Chu to be respectful than to obey his fate......"
Chu Xiao was about to collect the money, but who expected, at this time, Zhao Hengzhi took Ye Junjun back to the Hou Ye's Mansion.
As soon as Ye Junjun saw Chu Xiao, it was as if she had been beaten with chicken blood, she pulled out her sword and pointed it directly at Chu Xiao's throat. Thanks to Chu Xiao's agility, he perfectly avoided Ye Junjun's sword.
"Miss Ye, who are you?" Chu Xiao looked at her in surprise.
He couldn't understand why Ye Junjun was so murderous, as if he had some deep hatred and hatred with him.
"Hmph, you treacherous villain, you dared to collude with bandits to get us last time, I have to kill you!" After Ye Junjun finished speaking, he raised his sword again.
Chu Xiao hurriedly explained to Ye Junjun: "Miss Ye, this is a misunderstanding, I was also coerced by the bandit leader and fed poison, so I would do something sorry for you, I have always lived in deep self-blame." ”
"This girl is not fooled! Hum! Ye Junjun was menacing, and he couldn't listen to Chu Xiao's words.
Ye Junjun was holding a sword, but Chu Xiao was empty-handed, slowly gaining the upper hand.
Suddenly, the sword light flashed, and the awe-inspiring sword qi approached Chu Xiao's chest.
"Ahh
The bright red blood stained Chu Xiao's snow-white clothes, Ye Junjun's eyes widened in horror, looking at Chu Xiao in disbelief, he didn't expect that he really hurt Chu Xiao.
Originally, Zhao Hengzhi and Yao Yuran just wanted to watch the excitement and be the audience who ate melons, but they didn't expect Chu Xiao to be really injured by Ye Junjun's sword.
"Lord Chu Lou!" Zhao Hengzhi and Yao Yuran hurriedly ran over, and the two of them hurriedly helped Chu Xiao up.
"Junjun, why are you so ruthless? Don't you see that he doesn't mean to fight you at all? Yao Yuran reproached Ye Junjun.
Ye Junjun originally didn't believe what Chu Xiao said, but now that he was really injured, his heart was full of guilt, and he hurriedly apologized to Chu Xiao: "I'm sorry, Master Chu, I was wrong, I shouldn't not believe you!" ”
Ye Junjun said, took out a bottle of gold sore medicine from his arms, and wanted to give Chu Xiao medicine.
Zhao Hengzhi took the medicine in her hand, "Men and women don't kiss, I'll give him medicine!" ”
Several people hurriedly helped Chu Xiao to the room. Only Zhao Hengzhi was left in the room to give Chu Xiao medicine.
Ye Junjun stood at the door, looking at the closed door, her hands holding uneasily.
"Yu Ran, you said that the Lord of Chu Lou should not have any accidents, right?" Ye Junjun said in a panic.
"You are just too reckless, the master of Chu Mansion is far above you, but just now he has made concessions to you everywhere, you are ...... Alas! Yao Yuran sighed.
"I'm so stupid, I can't even tell if Lord Chu is a good person or a bad person!" Ye Junjun blamed himself even more.
In the room, Ye Hengzhi helped Chu Xiao take off his clothes.
"Yo, Ye Junjun, this girl, is really ruthless!" Zhao Hengzhi looked at the deep knife marks and couldn't help but gasp.
Chu Xiao smiled miserably, he didn't expect Ye Junjun to be able to attack so hard.
"However, Lord Chu Lou, you can obviously dodge, why do you want to accept her sword?" Zhao Hengzhi asked puzzled.
Chu Xiao was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Zhao Hengzhi to ask this question. Chu Xiao took great pains to hit this sword in order to investigate the painting stolen by General Lu.
He also sent other secret guards to find out the whereabouts of the painting elsewhere, and as for the Hou Ye's Mansion, he wanted to find out the truth in person.
But in front of Zhao Hengzhi, of course Chu Xiao had to hide something.
At that time, Chu Xiao said meaningfully: "If Ye Junjun stabbed this sword, it would be worth it if she could relieve the resentment she had against me in her heart." ”
Zhao Hengzhi was stunned, listening to Chu Xiao's words, it seemed that Chu Xiao was a little interested in Ye Junjun's girl. Otherwise, how could he even hurt him with such a sword, he didn't care!
