"stop!"
With a sharp shout, Shen Zhi rushed over with cold eyes, kicked away the soup bowl in the servant's hand, and stood in front of everyone with a dark face.
"Hey, come meddling in your own business?" Who is You Tianming? He belongs to the prime minister's family, not to mention the cold-eyed Guan Xuan standing beside him.
These two little ancestors add up to a lot.
Shen Zhi glanced at the two people in front of him, then looked at Bo Yu coldly, "Is this your friend?"
Bo Yu hummed twice, then got up from the ground in a panic. But before he could go out, You Tianming suddenly stepped forward and kicked Bo Yu on the back of the hand, Leng Mantou was instantly kicked away, landed in a perfect parabola, and rolled a few times on the spot.
"Go pick it up!" You Tianming folded his arms around his chest, "Even if it's dirty!"
Bo Yu gritted her teeth, her body was tense and trembling, it could be seen that she was out of breath. This steamed bun was exchanged by him with the only copper plate left on his body. It was the last ration for him and his mother. If it was gone...
"Pick it up!" You Tianming laughed, "If you don't pick it up, you'll be feeding it to the dog!"
Shen Zhi frowned slightly, his small face slightly twisted, "You Tianming, don't go too far!"
"Shen Zhi, have you forgotten how he treated you back then? Isn't it just right now? You can have revenge and revenge, what are you waiting for such a good opportunity? If I were you, I must be doing something different now." Let him taste the pain that he put on you at the beginning!" You Tianming provoked, stretched out his hand and patted Shen Zhi's shoulder, "Don't worry, with me here today, Bo Yu will not dare to fight back!"
"Don't bother!" Shen Zhi brushed his shoulders in disgust, "That's my own business."
You Tianming sneered, "You are kind and soft, you are a woman, you deserve to be bullied!"
"Hey!" Chunxiu rushed to stand next to Shen Zhi, "Boy, be careful what you say, my son is just kind-hearted and doesn't want to make trouble, unlike you sons and brothers who worship high and low, and want to treat others as Knife! The mind is so bad, be careful not to grow taller in the future!"
Shen Zhi didn't speak, just watched Bo Yu run over, knelt down to pick up the steamed bun, the steamed bun was covered with dust and sand, no matter how hard you dusted it, it couldn't be cleaned, and it was a pity to tear off the skin.
Bo Yu held the steamed bun in her palm, her nose was sour, and she almost shed tears.
"This steamed bun is dirty!" Shen Zhi held Bo Yu's wrist, "Eating it will hurt your stomach."
"You don't need to pretend to be kind!" Bo Yu angrily pushed Shen Zhi away.
Shen Zhi was caught off guard and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Chunxiu quickly supported him.
"You..." Chunxiu was about to explode, but was stopped by Shen Zhi.
"Auntie!" Shen Zhi held her down, and looked back at Bo Yu, who was staring fiercely, "If you think it's because of others that you ended up like this, then you are only worthy of eating these cold steamed buns with sand in your life. .People are worthy of self-knowledge. A man should be able to bend and stretch. You can't even be a human being, so what do you expect to do?"
Bo Yu was obviously taken aback, she didn't expect Shen Zhi to say such a thing. If it was fake kindness, it should be coaxing him, but Shen Zhi didn't show any kindness at all, instead he corrected his attitude.
"If it were someone else today, I would still help!" Shen Zhi took a deep breath and looked at the proud You Tianming, "Bullying the weak is not what a gentleman does, and adding insult to injury is the behavior of a villain! I despise you!"
"You!" You Tianming gritted his teeth, "Guan Xuan, do you think we should teach him a lesson?"
As for Bo Yu, Guan Xuan didn't want to do it himself. After all, his father had explained that the Queen Mother's attitude towards Wei Xian'er was different. If he bullied Bo Yu now, Wei Xian'er would retaliate when he regained the favor of the Queen Mother.
Otherwise, Shen Zhi...
Guan Xuan pulled the corners of his lips and waved his hand. Everyone quickly gathered around and surrounded Shen Zhi, "Shen Zhi, you are really annoying. If you meddle in other people's business, why don't I teach you a lesson for your mother!"
Chunxiu immediately rolled up her sleeves, "You little bastards are really confident! Why, want to do it? Come on, my aunt hasn't exercised her muscles for a long time, and I'm worried that no one will practice her hands!"
At that moment, Bo Yu tightly squeezed the steamed bun in her hand, and walked out of the alley without looking back.
"Hey, this heartless little thing!" Chunxiu gritted her teeth. It's really hateful for You Tianming and Guan Xuan to bully others, but it's even more irritating to watch someone as heartless as Bo Yu.
Shen Zhi didn't think so, seeing Bo Yu walk out, he was relieved instead.
Glancing coldly at the servants in front of him, Shen Zhi took a deep breath, "Hmph, what else do you do besides bullying others? Bullying the weak, what is your skill? If you have the ability, go to the palace and see if the prince will take your skin off!"
As soon as the words "Li Wangfu" came out, even You Tianming was also frightened.
Is Bo Yunxiu easy to provoke? For the sake of Shen Zhi, Li Wang kicked Bo Yu out of the house, at least that's how it was rumored outside. If the rumors are true, then Li Wang really loves Shen Zhi so much, he cannot help standing up for Shen Zhi.
Shen Zhi took a step forward, and everyone backed away in shock.
Hearing Shen Zhi's cold voice, "If you are not afraid of death, you can go forward and try! Let's see if Li Wangfu's knife is hard, or your neck is hard?"
Chunxiu was surprised, where did Zhi'er learn his official accent? But the learning is really decent, and looking at the bunch of trash in front of them, they are all bluffed, it is obviously effective.
Since it can be settled in a few words, why use a knife? !
"No matter how bad Bo Yu is, his surname is Bo!" Shen Zhi sneered, "The prince kicked him out of the mansion, but he didn't abolish his identity, which means that he is still a member of the Bo family, and the prince still recognizes him. How dare you come here?" If you bully the prince's son on the street, you are not afraid that the prince will bully your father in the court?"
You Tianming silently touched his face, what happened last time... Thinking about this, he turned his head to look at Guan Xuan, Guan Xuan also had lingering fears in his heart. Because of Li Wang's words, the two were beaten up that night, and the next day they entered Nanyuan Pavilion like pigs and pigs, and were laughed at by all the students for a long time. Now people still mention from time to time how embarrassing it is. .
"Forget it, I don't want to bother with a pariah like you!" You Tianming turned his head to look at Guan Xuan timidly, "You, what do you plan? Why don't we go..."
"Hmph!" Guan Xuan sneered, "Leave the matter of Bo Yu aside for now, he has already left, you can't scare me! Shen Zhi, you'd better take care of yourself! There will be no good results if you force yourself."
Chunxiu frowned, and picked up the butcher's knife silently, "Why, you still want to fight with my family Zhier? You really are not afraid of death."
"Call me!" Guan Xuan ordered.
The servants of the Guan family rushed forward, and Chunxiu kicked him to the ground, with such force that the man didn't get up again. Seeing this, everyone was shocked, all showing fear.
Chunxiu hasn't exerted all her strength yet, if she kills pigs twice more, these bastards will definitely cry like ghosts and wolves. But with children around, Chunxiu didn't want to be too cruel, lest Zhi'er would have nightmares at night.
When the house slave came up again, Chunxiu held the skirts of the two of them one by one in each hand, as if playing with big sticks. Amidst the howling sounds one after another, Chunxiu threw the two of them out with his hands, and hit them right on the ground. At Guan Xuan's feet.
"What are you still doing in a daze, let's go!" You Tianming grabbed Guan Xuan who was in a daze, and the two ran away.
Seeing this, Shen Zhi, who was standing aside, quickly picked up the shoe that the servant had dropped on the ground, and flew out fiercely, "Hit!"
yeah!
Guan Xuan was hit on the back of the head suddenly, lost control of his body in an instant, jumped on the dog and gnawed mud, and fell to the ground with You Tianming.
You Tianming was not injured, even scrambling to get up, ignoring Guan Xuan's injury, he hurriedly led his servants and ran away in a hurry.
"Young master!"
"Young master!"
Guan Xuan fell hard and landed face-to-face, his nose bleeds, half of his front teeth were broken, his face was covered in blood, it was really scary to watch. Seeing that the situation was not right, the servant hurriedly carried his young master away. If there was anything wrong with the young master, they all had to be buried with him.
"Boy, don't run away!" Chunxiu put her hands on her hips and laughed loudly, "Zhier, you hit it really accurately!"
Shen Zhi patted the dust on his hands, his mother said that in order to cure illnesses, the silver needles must be held steadily, so she taught him to practice hand strength and head precision since he was a child, and now he is actually using it here.
"Let's go, aunt!" Shen Zhi adjusted his clothes. If his mother found out that he was fighting outside, he would have to be punished. "Auntie, don't mention this to my mother. If she knows that I am outside If you fight and make trouble, you will definitely beat me!"
Chunxiu nodded, "Don't worry, I won't say anything."
The two left as if nothing had happened, as if nothing had happened, anyway... they didn't suffer!
After Shen Zhi and Chunxiu walked away, Bo Yu poked his head out from behind the basket at the entrance of the alley, and he saw the movement inside just now, but he thought he was unable to settle it, he was no longer the young master of Li Wangfu, There was no one around to talk to.
Tightening the cold steamed bun in his hand, Bo Yu turned and left.
In the past, he enjoyed the glory and splendor, but now he has tasted the warmth and coldness of the world. It is experience and despair.
Bo Yu walked into the cold alley, which was a dead end, and there was a temporary shack built by a family in the innermost part, which should have been used by beggars or nearby people to store things. shelter from the rain.
"Mother!" Bo Yu walked in, "Mother, are you hungry?"
Wei Xian'er turned her head out of focus. On her face, which was originally beautiful, there was an extremely hideous scar. It had festered a little before, but now it has scabbed over, making it even more ugly and terrifying.
"Mother?" Bo Yu knelt down in front of her mother, and handed over the torn buns, "Eat!"
"I am the side concubine of Prince Li's mansion, so you give me this?" Wei Xian'er sneered twice, "I am the side concubine, do you know? I am the prince's favorite side concubine Wei, you dog slave, let me Eat this?! Be careful, I will tell the prince, so that you can't eat it and walk around!"
Bo Yu's eyes were red, "Mother, Yu'er has no money, only this steamed bun!"
"Get out!" Wei Xian'er suddenly slapped the steamed bun in Bo Yu's hand flying, the steamed bun, which had been torn from the skin, rolled twice on the ground, and was covered with dust again.
Bo Yu burst into tears instantly, "Mother, that's the last thing you can eat!"
Wei Xian'er gritted her teeth, "I don't have such a useless son as you!"
"Mother!" Bo Yuzhong was startled.
The mother is sometimes sober, sometimes in a trance, and sometimes even Bo Yu can't tell the difference. Is the mother just pretending, or is she really crazy? But no matter what it was, the way his mother looked at him had no warmth at all.
"Mother?" Bo Yu wiped away tears, "I'm Yu'er!"
"Bo Yu, you are such a useless piece of trash that you can't even keep your mother. What do you think you are good for? I gave birth to you. It was the biggest wrong decision in my life!" Wei Xian'er gritted her teeth, "You know what? ? You were going to die, but... but your father suddenly... "
Yizhu ran in with a filthy body, holding a bowl of rotten cold rice in her hand. Without the source of her tongue-chewing, Yizhu could no longer speak, not because she didn't want to leave Wei Xianer's master and servant, but because of her current state, leaving Wei Xianer's mother and son would only lead to a worse death!
"Why? Why did you treat me like this? Why?" Wei Xian'er covered her aching face with trembling hands. The wound was already scarred, but after the scar was removed, she no longer had the capital to be proud of, and what was even more frightening was that the Queen Mother didn't even send anyone to look for her? !
This is unrealistic!
Unless it was Bo Yunxiu who made a move, how could there be no movement due to the Queen Mother's love for her
"Bo Yu!" Wei Xian'er grabbed his son's shoulders ferociously, "You go to Li Wang's mansion, go to find Bo Yunxiu, and ask him to let you go back to the mansion and restore your status as a little prince! What about the mandarin duck? What about the mandarin duck!"
Bo Yu took out the mandarin duck pendant from his bosom tremblingly, "Mother, forget it!"
With a crisp "pop", Bo Yu covered her face in shock, and looked at her mother in disbelief.
Yizhu rushed forward in a hurry, and quickly stopped Wei Xian'er who was very excited, with a whining sound in her throat.
"Mother?" Bo Yu burst into tears, "You hit me?"
"Go and beg the lord right away. If it doesn't work, go and beg Shen Muxi. Shen Muxi is merciful. Considering that you are still young, she will definitely protect you!" Wei Xian'er looked fierce, "If she doesn't agree, You go to Shen's Medical Center to make trouble, because of face, she will let you go! As long as Shen Muxi lets go, you have a chance, and mother can make a comeback!"
"Mother!" Bo Yu roared, "What do you think of me?"
Wei Xian'er was still babbling, her whole body was in a frenzy, "What? Take it for what? What do you think you are? You can't even keep your mother. What use are you? There is no use!"
Yizhu panicked, if the young master...
Bo Yu stood up, "Mother, wake up, wake up, okay?"
"It's good to kill Shen Muxi. If you kill her, the prince is mine! Kill her! Why does her son come to take my son's place? Why does the prince treat me like this?" Wei Xian'er was like crazy, her whole body Cry and laugh.
Covering her face, Bo Yu turned and ran.
Yizhu wanted to chase after her, but she was worried that something might happen to Wei Xian'er, so she was at a loss with the broken bowl. But when she turned her head, Yizhu suddenly squeezed the broken bowl in her hand, and the cruel look on the master's face disappeared just now...
Focusing her eyes again, Yizhu suspected that she had read wrongly, Wei Xian'er was still in that crazy and shapeless stupid state.
"Drink water!" Wei Xian'er picked up the broken bowl stupidly, "Drink!"
Yizhu hastily put down the broken bowl in her hand, and took it tremblingly, wondering when Wei Xianer's madness will recover? If things go on like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to Prince Li's Mansion, and I'm afraid that the Queen Mother will feel disgusted when she sees her in the future.
If even the Queen Mother ignored it, Wei Xian'er, mother and son would never be able to stand up again. If so, when will this day be the end? Do I want to follow the crazy woman all my life and raise Bo Yu
Yizhu is full of unwillingness!
"Drink water!" Wei Xian'er looked at her eagerly, "Why don't you drink it? Are you afraid of being poisoned? Are they going to poison me? Ah, they're going to poison me! Are they going to poison me?!"
Yizhu frowned, flustered and at a loss.
"Drink!" Wei Xian'er yelled suddenly, "Do you want to drink? Do you want to drink?"
Yizhu hurriedly picked up the broken bowl, "Gudong", "Gudong" took two sips.
So, Wei Xian'er grinned at her, hurriedly supported Yizhu to sit down, "Sit down! Sit down! I'll take care of you, are you tired? Close your eyes and rest for a while! Sleep well! Good boy, sleep!"
Wei Xian'er had a hideous scar on her face, just grinning like that, the hairs all over Yizhu's body stood up.
"Close your eyes!" Wei Xian'er suddenly turned her face, with a fierce look in her eyes, "Sleep!"
Yizhu hurriedly lay down and closed her eyes obediently, for fear that Wei Xian'er would show her fangs and bite someone in the next moment. But for some reason, after closing my eyes, I really felt a little... drowsy!
Gradually, Yizhu breathed evenly, and really fell asleep.
This sleep is really deep...
The night was dark and the stars were few and far between.
Shen Muxi tidied up a bit, and then returned to the palace with Chunxiu and Shen Zhi.
"Zhier, this steamed bun is delicious, try it!" Chunxiu opened the oil-paper bag, and the hot steamed dumpling smelled lingeringly fragrant, "One bite at a time, the skin is thin and the filling is thick, although it is not as good as Dr. Shen's, But itβs good to satisfy your hunger.β
Shen Zhi tasted one, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Aunt Chunxiu, can you give me all these?"
Chunxiu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "If you like food, it's okay to give it to you, I'll just go buy some more!"
"Thank you, aunt!" Shen Zhi quickly rewrapped the steamed bun with oiled paper, and ran forward.
"Zhier..." Chunxiu was about to chase, but was stopped by Shen Muxi on the spot, "Doctor Shen, why are you stopping me? Zhier is like this, I'm afraid there is something urgent, in case he..."
"Let him go!" Knowing the son is more like the mother, Shen Muxi certainly knows what his son is going to do.
Chun Xiuzhong was stunned, "Doctor Shen, where is Zhi'er going?"
"A child's heart is pure and clean after all." Shen Muxi smiled.
Although Shen Zhi took good care of Chunxiu and didn't mention the fight with Guan Xuan and You Tianming, how could Chunxiu dare to hide it from Shen Muxi, Zuo just asked Shen Muxi to promise not to punish Shen Zhi in advance, so she vomited cleanly.
Hearing the children fighting suddenly, Shen Muxi was angry, but it seemed that it was because of Bo Yu's success, in the end Guan Xuan refused to give up, Shen Muxi's anger completely disappeared. Shen Muxi, as a mother, knows what kind of temperament his son is!
Shen Zhi has clear grievances and grievances, and rarely does anything he is not sure about. Regarding Guan Xuan's shoehorn punishment, Shen Muxi doesn't say anything on the face, but laughs silently in his heart. People put knives on your neck, and you still talk about benevolence and morality? !
Shen Muxi couldn't do it, and the son she taught couldn't do it either.
Shen Zhi glanced at the alley in the daytime, all the vendors at the entrance of the alley had withdrawn, leaving only a few baskets in the corner on the side, which were used by nearby people to throw away rotten vegetables or leftovers, and put them aside garbage place.
The basket in the corner had already been covered, Shen Zhi gently pushed aside the vegetable leaves on the lid, put the oil paper bag wrapped in the steamed bun on top, and glanced anxiously into the dark alley.
"Zhier!" Shen Muxi shouted, "Let's go!"
Shen Zhi responded, ran away with small steps, and held hands with his mother. After walking a few steps, he still didn't forget to look back, and suddenly saw in the darkness, stretched out a hand from the basket, and quickly dragged the oiled paper package on the lid into the basket.
The corners of his lips raised slightly, and Shen Zhi smiled from the bottom of his heart.
When he raised his head, his mother looked at him with gentle eyebrows and doting eyes.
The mother and son looked at each other and smiled, tacit understanding.
At night, after Shen Zhi finished washing, he obediently went to bed, and only Shen Muxi was left in the room. The little guy kicked his feet and looked at his mother with a smile, "Mother, Zhier wants to tell you a secret!"
"What do you want to say?" Shen Muxi sat on the edge of the bed, reached out and pulled the thin quilt, "Mother, listen, you say it!"
"I met Bo Yu!" Shen Zhi pursed his lips and scratched his head in embarrassment, "I..."
Shen Muxi sighed softly, "Now you know the benefits of how strict your mother was to you before? Although you have entered the Nanyuan Pavilion now, if you have time, you should practice more, it will be beneficial and harmless!"
Shen Zhi nodded fiercely, "Zhi'er understands!"
"Zhier, kindness is a must for human beings, but if it is too kind, it is condoning evil. We must be good people, but we must not condone bad people, otherwise these people will kill more good people, I will not kill Boren Boren will die because of me." Shen Muxi stroked his son's little head, "Bo Yu is young, mother believes that he can't do great evil, but you have to promise mother, if he doesn't change his evil, don't be kind!"
Shen Zhi thought for a while, "Mother is worried about that bad woman!"
Shen Muxi nodded, "Mother is not afraid of Bo Yu, but Wei Xian'er, she is too sinister, mother may not be her opponent, because mother can't do such insidious things, if she uses the child again, mother doesn't know if she hasn't been stopped now If you do good, will it become the thing that mother regrets most!"
"Mother, Zhi'er is not stupid. Zhi'er knows how to measure. The reason why he takes care of him is because he... is also the son of the prince. We live in the palace. The prince is very good to mother and Zhi'er, so Zhi'er doesn't want to let him Something happened to Bo Yu." Shen Zhi pursed his lips, "Zhi'er knows how painful it is to lose a loved one, when Master died, if Mother hadn't missed me, she would have died of heartache!"
Shen Muxi hugged her son tightly, "Mother's good boy!"
"Mother, I will help the prince to keep his son. The prince will treat you better and won't let others bully you. Mother, is Zhi'er smart?" Shen Zhi looked up at her with a smile.
Shen Muxi's eyes were slightly red, and she really wanted to tell her son, in fact, you don't have to do this, it doesn't matter to anyone how the prince treats her. But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them again, Shen Zhi was too smart and too sensitive.
"You can help Bo Yu, but you are not allowed to give trust!" This is Shen Muxi's bottom line, "Do you understand what mother means?"
"Yes!" Shen Zhi was decisive, "Zhi'er takes orders!"
Shen Muxi smiled softly, "Sleep obediently, mother will go to the medicine house."
"En!" Shen Zhi closed his eyes obediently.
After Shen Zhi fell asleep, Shen Muxi closed the door and went to the medicine house.
"Doctor Shen!" Ah Luo waited in the medicine hut.
"Shaoyao came to me today!" Shen Muxi took out a nail from his bosom, "She left a round fan, I found this in the handle of the fan, but... I don't quite understand what it means?"
A Luo was surprised, "A nail? But this nail is so strange, what kind of nail is it?"
Shen Muxi frowned, "I'm afraid this nail is not common. When I was in Huli Village, I saw someone going to a funeral. This should be... a coffin nail!"
"What?" A Luo's eyes widened in shock, "Shao Yao is a threat??"
"I thought she was here to make trouble before, but she left this later. I don't think it's a threat, but a warning or a reminder." Shen Muxi put the nail on the table, "This is probably a hint ?β
Ah Luo was puzzled, "What does it imply? A coffin? Death? Or murder?"
"Most people wouldn't take this thing, it's unlucky after all!" Shen Muxi rubbed his brows, "Is there a coffin shop in the city?"
A Luo thought for a while, "I'm not sure, but tomorrow I can ask quietly, try not to alarm anyone!"
"Just ask for the direction. You don't have to scare the snakes, I'll go by myself!" Shen Muxi explained, wrapping the nails properly with a handkerchief, "You take this thing with you, maybe every shop has different things, If so, it is more certain.β
"Yes!" A Luo nodded and put away the nail.
"Go to sleep!" Shen Muxi got up.
A Luo frowned, "I'll accompany you!"
"No need!" Shen Muxi rolled up his sleeves.
Ah Luo saluted, of course she knew that Shen Muxi must have something to do, she couldn't help, let alone make trouble.
After Ah Luo left, Shen Muxi took out the book left by his master and read it carefully by candlelight. It recorded the "Beauty's Grace" Gu. The symptoms of the poison were very similar to those of Lu Guizhou, but... the book only said , the host of this kind of Gu poison can only be a woman, as for how it is transmitted to a man, there is no detailed record.
Over and over again, over and over again, without a single word in the end.
Zi Nian and Lan Jincao have been found, and the prescriptions are prepared, but how to prevent it has become the biggest problem. You can't guard against all the girls in Rouge House, right? What's more, if the other party has a heart, it may not be only the girl from the Rouge Tower who is carrying the poisonous Gu.
Holding his forehead with one hand, Shen Muxi half-closed his eyes, his mind was heavy.
There is a shadow covering the whole body, and the light amber is condensed in the candlelight, just looking at the charming girl who is sleeping on the table with gentle eyebrows, unknowingly.
There was Mi Li guarding outside, and the wind and shadows swayed all around, but no one was around.
People in the twilight, how peacefully they sleep when they purse their lips in their sleep. Her long eyelashes drooped obediently, and there was a mottled silhouette in the light, swaying gently with the wind blowing in from the window, only peace was seen in the silence.
He carefully bent down and stared at the sleeping person very seriously.
His gaze slowly moved from her smooth forehead to her eyebrows, from the center of her eyebrows to the tip of her nose, and finally landed on her slightly pursed lips. Like a thief who wants to steal something he loves, he can't restrain the excitement of being close at hand, and has to approach cautiously.
His demeanor is so gentle that he can't even breathe.
Lips, softly pressed, so close and so warm, as silent as snowflakes falling, but full of timid joy.
