Chapter 26 - sick
The man in black said coldly: “As long as I think about it, there are thousands of ways to make your life worse than death.”
“If you want to prove how powerful you are,” Bai Chu frowned and rubbed his throat, his soft voice slightly hoarse, “You don’t have to come to me to show off.”
“Bullying a woman who doesn’t know how to fight doesn’t show how powerful you are.”
To say that there was still some restraint just now, this sentence is a bright mockery.
He was startled, and the anger that had just poured into his heart touched the red marks on her slender, white neck, and the next second for some reason, it dissipated cleanly.
In the past, there were not many people who insulted him face to face, such as “despicable”, “cruel”, “violent” and so on. It was almost commonplace. Even if he was a little angry and humiliated at first, he was used to it today. They care.
But the woman in front of her was really different.
She was right, he didn’t come to kill her.
This is the residence of Princess Duanmin. No matter how daring he is, he does not dare to easily challenge the bottom line of the saint. He just wants to use this to scare the third young lady of the Shen family.
Who knows, everyone says that the cowardly and mediocre white concubine still has such a side.
The man in black looked dark, calmed down from the fluctuating emotions just now, and looked at her with a scrutiny, “Who are you?”
“Your Excellency has spent a lot of time looking for me, but you don’t know who I am?” Bai Chu chuckled, “I can guess your purpose.”
“You admit that you have great skills, but you convicted me with just one word. I really can’t believe what a powerful person you are.”
“As long as you can come up with some real evidence, I will naturally plead guilty and let you handle it. If you can’t, you will owe me a favor. If you ask for something, you can’t refuse it.” With a hint of provocation, “For three days, do heroes dare to gamble?”
The word “hero” was vaguely accentuated, making jokes.
An impulse that had not been seen in a long time flowed through his heart, causing him to blurt out and agree: “Okay.” After that, there was a bit of deep meaning in his black eyes, “Do you know who I am?”
“I said I know, do you believe it?” Bai Chu laughed like a prank, “If you don’t believe it, you can raise and let’s make another bet.”
The man in black was at a loss for words, and gave her a deep look with his cold eyes, “If that’s the case, I will look for an opportunity to see you again, if you want to set up some kind of plan to catch turtles in the urn, you don’t have to, if you really know me I should be clear about my identity, even if the Shen family finds me, they will not dare to act rashly.”
Just as he turned around, Bai Chu called out to him: “Hey, wait…”
The man in black said coldly, “What’s the matter?”
Bai Chu sat silently beside the bed with a friendly smile, looking straight at him with watery eyes, a cinnabar mole at the end of his eyes lit up the whole picture: “Can you help me close the window before leaving? ? I’m really cold.”
“…”
The man in black moved his fingers, and the small wooden pole about the size of a baby’s arm that supported the window suddenly broke from the middle.
With his hands behind his back, he glanced at her condescendingly, then opened the front door carelessly, jumped up, and disappeared into the darkness with a bang.
Bai Chu was startled, “Wait! You didn’t close the door!”
…
“Young madam, you seem to be a little hot.” Shuangxi frowned and said worriedly, “It’s all my servant’s fault. I forgot to wring your hair last night before going to sleep.”
Bai Chu nestled weakly in the warm bedding, “I don’t blame you.”
It’s not that unqualified little thief, just break the door and enter, and don’t remember to bring the door before leaving, the martial arts skills are amazing, one day she will let him taste the cool breeze of the night.
Shuangxi thought it was Bai Chu’s intention to comfort her, and she was moved to tears: “Young madam, you are so kind to your servant.”
Bai Chu glanced at her, and the exhaustion all over her body made her sleepily close her eyes, too lazy to explain.
Shuangxi looked at the bloodless master worriedly, her heart was really anxious, just now the government doctor came to check the pulse and also prescribed a prescription, she was not at ease, thinking that she would have to watch the pot of medicine and boil it in person to be at ease.
But when she left, there was no one to trust around the master. Shuangxi hesitated, and suddenly heard the report from the outside that it was the third young master. Shuangxi felt relieved and hurried out to greet him, only to find that it was not only the third young master, but also the second young master. .
“Slave, see Second Young Master and Third Young Master.”
Shen Yuzhi couldn’t hold back first, and asked anxiously, “I heard that Chu Hua is ill, have you asked the government doctor to see it? What’s the explanation?”
Shuangxi leaned over and reported: “In the words of the third young master, the government doctor said that the young lady has too much mood swings, qi and blood deficiency, lack of heart yang, plus the accidental cold hits the lungs, and the cold is hot, so you need to rest and relax. Please feel free to recover as soon as possible.”
Hearing this, Shen Yuzhi was worried that Bai Chu was frightened by the affair between Princess Roujia and Bai Yinhua, and couldn’t stand up anymore, so he walked around Shuangxi and went to the back room.
He was gone, but Shen Yongzhi was a step behind and asked Shuangxi, “How is your master’s spirit now?”
Shuangxi greeted his gentle and calm gaze, and unknowingly shook the truth cleanly: “Young Madam has just woken up, as the government doctor said, when the young lady fell asleep with high fever, she carefully changed the night to reduce the fever. The veil, the young lady Jiren has her own good looks, and when she wakes up again, she is much better.”
Shen Yongzhi sighed inaudibly: “I suddenly remembered that I have something to do, so I won’t disturb Yuzhi and Chuchu. When they finish talking, you have asked Chuchu, and if she is in good health, you can trust her. Give me.”
“Family, you always have to come to visit before you can rest assured.”
He was dressed in a blue brocade robe, with a handsome face, an amiable smile, and a graceful demeanor, as if he was left behind and independent.
Shuangxi sighed sincerely in the bottom of my heart, the second young master is really a good person, for fear of disturbing the solitude of the third young master and the young wife, they even thought of such a tactful compromise.
As soon as she agreed, she almost patted her chest: “Second Young Master, don’t worry, the slave will definitely pass on your concern and condolences to the young lady.”
Shen Yongzhi smiled and nodded: “Go and decoct the medicine.”
On the other side, Bai Chu saw that it was Shen Yuzhi who came in, so she managed to regain her composure, against the snow-white skin that had lost its luster at the moment. already very strong.
“I don’t know what happened to the elder sister.”
Shen Yuzhi comforted her softly: “There is no major incident, it’s all over.”
Pretending to be deaf and dumb is one of the necessary skills to survive in the power center of the capital. If you can play stupid, no one will risk offending Princess Changping and the Bai family to expose it, just to deal with a white tone. magnificent.
Bai Chu sighed faintly: “Third brother, you don’t have to hide it from me, if it’s just a trivial matter, Princess Changping won’t stop the birthday banquet because of the eldest sister, you know how much she values this banquet. “
She lightly folded her eyebrows, and her bright and charming face seemed to be covered with a layer of gauze, which instantly became hazy.
Shen Yuzhi thought about how she and Bai Yinhua grew up together since childhood, and couldn’t bear to deal with her with consoling words, “Chu Hua, tell you the truth, I saw someone drinking with you last night. If you put medicine in it, there is a high probability that the same thing will be placed in Miss Bai’s wine glass, but you don’t like drinking, so you can escape, but Miss Bai accidentally fell into it.”
After all, there is a childhood sweetheart relationship, and Shen Yuzhi feels uncomfortable when it comes to Bai Yinhua’s current bad situation.
The past is like smoke, fading away with the wind. He admits that he is living a good life now, but he also sincerely hopes that Bai Yinhua can find a good home.
An Wang… is really not a good match, but for today’s Bai Yinhua, he is the biggest support.
After all, it is the royal family and nobles, no matter whether they have real power or not, this name is somewhat deterrent.
“I’m not feeling well,” Bai Chu’s eyes looked softly, “I wanted to visit the eldest sister, but now I’m worried that I’ll make her sick. I wonder if the third brother can do it for me?”
Shen Yuzhi frowned and hesitated: “I can send some condolence gifts on your behalf.” But if he really said a visit, in his current capacity, it would be inconvenient to see Bai Yinhua’s face.
Bai Chu has no objection: “That’s fine.” She looked at Shen Yuzhi as if relieved, and smiled secretly, even if he wanted to avoid it, Bai Yinhua would be reluctant.
Shen Yuzhi stayed for a while longer, until Shuangxi brought the fried soup, and then she thoughtfully got up to leave, so that she could rest in peace.
When he left, Bai Chu drank the medicine and Shuangxi hurriedly delivered the prepared honey water. Watching Bai Chu’s frowning brows slowly loosen, she gradually let go of her heart, thinking of Shen Yongzhi’s stay. if,
“By the way, young lady, just now the second young master said that he has left for the time being because of a temporary business. When you feel better, let the servant tell you something, and he will come to visit you again.”
Bai Chu said casually, “I’m a little tired. I’ll talk about it tomorrow.”
Shuangxi saw the tired look on her face, and didn’t dare to disturb her any more, so she retired with a medicine bowl.
The room was quiet again, Bai Chu lazily nestled under the soft quilt, the heat on her body did not fade, she was so dizzy, she wanted to lie down for a while, let go of her thoughts, and think about nothing.
Just when she closed her eyes and felt a little sleepy, a familiar voice suddenly sounded out of thin air: “Is Chu Chu just perfunctory your savior?”
Before Bai Chu opened her eyes, the smile on her lips had already risen: “Why is the second brother here?” She looked over with a smile, and it was not Shen Yongzhi who had left earlier, who was standing in front of the bed, she joked, “You Are you worried about your brother, or are you worried about me?”
She lay peacefully on the bed, not embarrassed by the current state of the two.
Shen Yuezhi also understood her temper somewhat, Shi Shiran found a round stool, sat down beside her bed, and said politely, “I’m just worried about you.”
“I feel a little uncomfortable,” Bai Chu looked at him with a smile, “but if the second brother can tell me the story of last night, I won’t feel any illness.”
Shen Yongzhi’s ink-colored pupils shone slightly, and the corners of her lips were raised slightly. Just as she was about to say something, her eyes caught a little bruise on her neck. The spring light disappeared in an instant, and an astonishing undercurrent could be seen beneath the extremely calm surface. surge.
