Huo Weilou is also a person who has gone through a lot of battles. When he was in charge of the army in the north, he has seen injuries no matter how he cut his flesh and bones, let alone the methods used by the Embroidered Clothes Division over the years, but now , his hand cleaning Bo Ruoyou's face trembled slightly, and Bo Ruoyou just leaned against the edge of the tub silently, her delicate little face was pale and bloodless, as if she would leave it behind with a little effort. mark.
Huo Weilou had never done such delicate work before, but he didn't dare to be careless at this moment. His rough fingertips touched the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. In a coma, her beautiful eyebrows were still furrowed, as if she was also suffering from pain in a coma.
He couldn't help but look at the wound on Bo Ruoyou's neck. If he hurt her very badly last time, then this time, Han Sheng almost killed her, strangling her thin white neck like porcelain. The scars were bruised and swollen, and the tiny blood spots were clearly visible. He had heard her autopsy write that those dead female corpses had exactly the same strangle marks.
Huo Weilou's heart choked, almost, only a little.
He didn't dare to see the water on the wound, so he just wiped her face, and then remembered that there was blood on her back, he saw it when he just picked her up, the robe was torn off, and the blood was red on her shoulders At that point, he glanced over at that moment, and was only eager to hug her, but he didn't see it very clearly. At this moment, he was afraid that she would get wet, so he couldn't help but support her and move that shoulder outward.
She was the only one in the ear room, Huo Weilou carefully pulled down the collar she lifted up, just to see how the injury was, but there was a small blood spot exposed under the collar. Blood red cinnabar nevus.
Huo Weilou froze while supporting Bao Ruoyou's arm, he first understood in his mind why Han Sheng risked taking her away from Cheng's residence, and then he felt that his eyes could not be moved away as if they were caught.
After examining the three corpses, and knowing the likes and dislikes of the murderer, Bo Ruoyou never showed even the slightest bit of fear, and if it wasn't for the danger this time, he would never have known that she also had...
The skin is better than snow, which makes this cinnabar mole red and dazzling. Huo Weilou stared at it for a few moments, but finally forced himself to look away, and she was already warmed up, but she was just sitting in the bathtub like this There is no way.
Huo Weilou suddenly looked at Bo Ruoyou's face, his eyes were solid, and he raised his hand to brush her eyebrows, suddenly, his eyes were fixed, the hand that fell on her eyebrows slipped down, and pulled Unbuttoned the front of her inner robe.
The lapel was open, and the thin silk floated on the water. Huo Weilou had made up his mind, and his hands were extremely fast. He took off her robe twice, leaving only a close-fitting small garment on her body, and he again He lifted her out of the bathtub, and wrapped her in his clean robes on the screen.
He carried her to the inner room and put her on the bed. His robe was on her body, like a brocade quilt. He reached under the brocade robe, and after a short while, he took her back and the silk trousers under her body. After getting down, he turned around and went to find another piece of his inner sheet, lifted her up, and put it on her body in two or three strokes.
After putting on the inner sheet, and pulling the brocade quilt to cover her, after doing all this, Huo Weilou was sweating profusely.
At this time, Eunuch Fu's footsteps sounded outside.
"Master Hou, Mr. Ming has arrived—"
Eunuch Fu trotted in, "We'll be in the main courtyard soon, Youyou—"
Mr. Fu didn't finish his sentence, because she realized that Huo Weilou was not in the ear room, she was standing in front of the bed, and beside the bed were women's clothes, and Bo Ruoyou, who was supposed to be in the bathtub, was lying on his underwear wearing his underwear. bed.
Eunuch Fu was startled and angry, "You—"
Huo Weilou brushed his drenched robe, and without saying a word, went to get the clothes and turned them to the screen to change for himself. Eunuch Fu felt a rush of blood rushing straight to his forehead, but looking at Huo Weilou's waves He didn't look surprised, his eyes turned black, but he didn't know what to scold, and after a while Huo Weilou came out, his face still had the expression that nothing happened.
Eunuch Fu couldn't help raising his hand, pointing at Huo Weilou with trembling fingertips, "How could you—"
Huo Weilou didn't even move his eyebrows, "What's wrong with me? Human life is at stake, and I'm here to save her."
"you-"
Huo Weilou gestured to Bo Ruoyou's clothes, "Aren't you going to tidy up?"
Eunuch Fu clenched his fists vigorously, as if he was holding Huo Weilou's innocent face, and stomped his feet fiercely, then went to pack up Bo Ruoyou and his clothes with a face full of grief and indignation. Someone came to report that Ming Guilan had gone outside the inner room.
"Come in-"
Ming Guilan was pushed in by the attendants, and saw Bo Ruoyou lying on the couch, her hair was still wet, and Huo Weilou was wiping her hair with a handkerchief, this scene made Ming Guilan stunned, waiting to see When Bo Ruoyou was injured on her neck, she hurriedly said, "Why is it so badly injured?"
"If you are attacked, show her quickly, I'm afraid you will hurt your vitals this time."
Huo Weilou's voice was serious, Ming Guilan also saw the seriousness of the injury at a glance, and quickly checked Bo Ruoyou's injury, and after a while, Ming Guilan said: "It's too serious, and it's raining?"
Huo Weilou nodded, Ming Guilan asked for pulse again, and immediately read a prescription, Fu Gonggong hurriedly wrote it out and sent it out to be decocted, Ming Guilan said inside: "I haven't seen any bones yet, but the neck But the internal meridian must be injured, she is not breathing well now, maybe she hurt her throat, but did you hear her talking?"
Huo Weilou shook his head, "He fainted as soon as he saw someone."
Ming Guilan's face became heavy, "The injury is in one place. I was exposed to the rain and cold, and I was frightened. I'm afraid that several diseases will be complicated. Also, if I hurt my throat, I'm afraid it will affect my speech." After finishing speaking, he asked again, " Anyone else injured?"
Huo Weilou's phoenix eyes moved slightly, "There are still some scratches and some blood, can it be in the way?"
Ming Guilan saw several other bruises on the side of Bo Ruoyou's neck, and shook his head when he heard the words, "Small injuries are fine, don't get wet where you see blood, just apply medicine, the injury on the neck is very serious You need to be careful. The prescription just now is imported, and I have two ointments here, which need to be applied externally every day. In addition, there are a lot of medicines for removing putrefaction and promoting muscle growth, so I will not prescribe any prescriptions. .”
Huo Weilou nodded, "How's the pulse?"
"The pulse condition is ups and downs, the pulse rate slows and stops. It is painful, cold, and frightened too much. Just look at the pulse condition, and I am afraid that I will not wake up for a while. The decoction must be fed, and the wound medicine applied externally is also the same. If it doesn't get better after dawn, it will be a bad thing." Ming Guilan sighed, "Miss Bo didn't follow Lord Hou to handle the case, so how could she be attacked?"
This question made Huo Weilou feel ashamed. Looking at Bo Ruoyou's weak voice, he didn't know where to start. Ming Guilan shook his head, "Forget it, I'll prepare some external medicine first."
The attendant pushed Ming Guilan out, and after a while, Eunuch Fu came in, "Master Hou, why don't we go to the princess mansion and ask for two maidservants?"
Huo Weilou frowned slightly when he heard the words, but when Eunuch Fu saw that he was not happy, he couldn't help gritting his teeth and said: "Master, you are not for yourself, you also have to take care of your reputation."
Then Huo Weilou said: "Forget it, go get it."
Eunuch Fu glared at him angrily, then turned around and went out to give orders, but before the people from the Princess Mansion came, Cheng Yunzhi arrived first, and they came to the Hou Mansion when they got the news, but they were slow, and they only arrived at the Hou Mansion now. Huo Weilou heard that Cheng Yunzhi had arrived, and immediately ordered someone to invite them in.
Cheng Yunzhi came all the way to the main courtyard, and when he arrived at Huo Weilou's dormitory, he saw Bo Ruoyou lying on the couch as if lifeless, his eyes turned red, but in front of Huo Weilou, he couldn't speak well, so he had to endure his heartache, and Fu Gonggong looked at it His eyes were slightly red, and he hurriedly said: "Master Ming has been invited to have a look. The injury on the neck is a bit serious, but it was not too late to be life-threatening. The medicine has already been prescribed. Mr. Cheng, don't worry, the injury will not hurt again. No matter how serious it is, the Hou Mansion will ask people to take care of Youyou."
Cheng Yunzhi pursed his lips and said, "Thank you so much, Lord Hou. Youyou has been an assistant for several years and has never experienced this. This time is really..."
Bo Ruoyou's whole body was tightly covered, only a small pale face was exposed outside, it was heart-wrenching to look at, Huo Weilou stood aside and said: "This time it is the Marquis who ordered her to enter Jingzhao Mansion, otherwise she will It is the fault of this Marquis that it will not be involved in this case."
Eunuch Fu raised his eyebrows while listening, thinking that Huo Weilou didn't dare to be tough now.
Cheng Yunzhi was a little terrified when he heard this, "I dare not blame Lord Hou. It was her wish to be a scorpion. It was Lord Hou's favor to recommend her for her. This time was an accident. No one thought it would happen."
Huo Weilou said in a low voice, "This Marquis also appreciates her quite a lot, otherwise he would not make an exception and recommend her to the Jingzhao Mansion's yamen, but in the end it was a bit negligent, she is a woman, different from others, although Ben Hou intends to use her , but neglected to protect her, it really makes me feel ashamed, this time she is recuperating, and the Marquis will take care of her, only in this way can I feel at ease."
Huo Weilou spoke sincerely, with a deep pain on his face, even though the pain was true, such words still made the corners of Fu Gonggong's lips twitch, and after talking for a long time, it turned out that he left an eye here.
Eunuch Fu rolled his eyes secretly, looking at Bo Ruoyou who was lying on the couch, he felt a little complicated and incomprehensible, Huo Weilou's behavior was really determined, but what if Youyou didn't have such a mind
Cheng Yunzhi was also taken aback when he heard that, thinking that even if he didn't take Bo Ruoyou home immediately, he would pick her up when she woke up and got better, but Huo Weilou's words blocked his thoughts, " Lord Hou... don't be so ashamed, it's not unusual for Lord Hou to value her status as a little girl, if she stays in the Hou's mansion to recuperate, I'm afraid-"
"What are you afraid of?" Huo Weilou looked at him, "No one else will know about this matter. Although your house is her permanent residence, she was seriously injured, and I don't know how to take care of her this time. This Marquis is here. There are quite a few attendants, so it is more convenient to take care of her."
Huo Weilou was originally a high-ranking person, but now there is a lot of concern in his words, Cheng Yunzhi was a little suspicious, and he didn't dare to take Huo Weilou's face directly, so he could only say: "Then why don't you wait for Youyou to wake up, if she feels like staying in The Hou Mansion will recover better, so we will follow her wishes."
A gleam flashed in Huo Weilou's eyes, "Alright."
Cheng Yunzhi heaved a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but get closer. Seeing Bo Ruoyou's face as white as paper, he felt even more heartbroken. At this time, the soup outside had already been boiled, and Mr. Fu ordered someone to bring the soup in.
There are no other attendants in this room, Eunuch Fu rolled his eyes, "I used to serve the eldest princess, I am here to serve Youyou to drink medicine, Mr. Cheng, don't worry."
Cheng Yunzhi felt that something was wrong, and at the same time felt that they were really devoted to Bo Ruoyou, so he could only agree with him. Huo Weilou stood aside and watched. At this moment, Cheng Yunzhi remembered that he hadn't seen him all the way into the Marquis' mansion. A maid, since that's the case, who changed Bo Ruoyou's clothes
Cheng Yunzhi was skeptical and didn't dare to speak. After feeding the medicine, Eunuch Fu ordered the attendants to retreat. At this time, Ming Guilan came in from the outside with the prepared ointment in his hand. After Lan was diagnosed and treated for Bo Ruoyou, his heart was full of mixed feelings.
"Use the ointment now, it will reduce swelling and relieve stasis."
After Ming Guilan finished speaking, he looked at the people in the room and didn't know who to give the ointment to. Eunuch Fu hurriedly took it. At this time, there was a voice outside, and Eunuch Fu hurried out to take a look. Sure enough, the maidservant of the Princess Mansion had arrived .
Eunuch Fu hurriedly stepped forward and said a few words, the two maidservants are old people from the Princess Mansion, and they can understand everything, so Eunuch Fu led the two into the door, and said, "Let these fine work be left to them." Do."
Two maidservants stepped forward, one was supporting Bo Ruoyou, and the other was giving her medicine. Both of them were careful people who took good care of Bo Ruoyou, and their movements were careful and neat. Cheng Yunzhi looked relieved, and Ming Guilan looked at Huo Weilou with a slightly different look.
Huo Weilou asked at this time: "Will you wake up after dawn?"
Ming Guilan nodded, "At least it will be dawn, and it's normal not to wake up tomorrow."
Huo Weilou frowned slightly, at this moment Cheng Yunzhi said: "Master Hou, I want to ask Youyou for pulse."
Of course Huo Weilou had no objection, the servant girl stepped back, Cheng Yun stepped forward to ask Bo Ruoyou for her pulse, then stroked her cheek, and then straightened up after a few moments in his heart, although he didn't ask the prescription, but he could tell by the smell Probably, he felt a lot more at ease.
Huo Weilou saw his calm expression, and said: "It's getting late, she won't wake up for a moment, why don't Mr. Cheng rest in the mansion."
It was already late at night, the rain had subsided, and the night was no longer so oppressive, but Cheng Yunzhi was in a dilemma as to how to stay in the Hou's mansion, but he was reluctant to part with Ruoyou.
Eunuch Fu couldn't help coming forward, "Mr. Cheng, you don't have to be restrained. Youyou is one of your own, so Mr. Cheng should be like this. Seeing that Youyou is seriously injured, Mr. Cheng must not be able to sleep peacefully. Why don't you go to the guest room to rest for a while? If you wake up like this, you can do it right away." See you."
This remark pleased Cheng Yunzhi, he thanked him and walked out with Eunuch Fu, as soon as Cheng Yun left, Huo Weilou's shoulders and backs loosened, Ming Guilan saw him and chuckled for a while.
"I didn't expect Master Hou to have today."
Huo Weilou raised his eyebrows and looked over, Ming Guilan said with a light smile: "The Hou Mansion hasn't seen a maidservant for many years, and this is where the Lord Hou sleeps. Miss Bo entered the bedroom... But anyone who knows Hou Ye a little bit can tell that Mr. Cheng is Miss Bo's adoptive father, and the Hou Ye is unusually kind."
He said with a smile again, "This is also what it should be."
Huo Weilou frowned, but he didn't argue, he just said: "You also stay, so as not to cause trouble."
Ming Guilan's face straightened, and he complied, and saw Huo Weilou walking to the side of the couch and looking at Bo Ruoyou, looking thoughtfully at Huo Weilou for a few moments before ordering his attendants to take him out.
Everyone left, Bo Ruoyou took medicine again, Huo Weilou felt a little relieved, he sat down by the couch, looked at Bo Ruoyou for a moment, then lifted the brocade quilt and took out her hand.
Bo Ruoyou's hands are very beautiful, the knuckles are slender and slender, and there are only thin calluses on the fingertips. Due to the suffering of the autopsy, it does not look so delicate, but it is still soft, and the skin on the back of the hand is white and smooth It was so thin that the blood under it was completely visible, and it gave people a sense of fragility, but it was these hands that held the autopsy knife all the year round, and no matter how difficult the case was, she would not shrink back.
In contrast, Huo Weilou's hands are much rougher. His hands have also held knives all year round, and he has never held a woman's catkin. At this moment, he wraps her little hand, and once he clenches it tightly, he refuses to let go. I don't know if he used too much strength or what, but after a while, Bo Ruoyou's eyebrows moved slightly, and his face showed pain. He was startled when he saw it, and leaned closer, "Bo Ruoyou?"
He called out, but Bo Ruoyou didn't open her eyes, she just wrinkled her small face together, thin sweat broke out on her forehead, she moved her lips impatiently, and her body trembled, Huo Weilou couldn't hear what she said What, I leaned closer again, and then I heard it.
"pain… "
Hearing her cry of pain, Huo Weilou felt even more distressed, he got up and went to call for someone, Mr. Fu arranged for Cheng Yunzhi and Zhou Liang to come back, seeing him calling for people to respond, Huo Weilou said impatiently: "Call Ming Guilan, what is he going to do?" What kind of medicine did you use? She also screamed in pain in her dream!"
Eunuch Fu was startled, but also felt that something was wrong, "I'll invite this old servant."
He turned around and left, Huo Weilou turned around and entered the room again, Bo Ruoyou was sweating thinly on her forehead, he hurriedly found a towel to wipe her sweat, and after a while, Eunuch Fu came back, and said with a bitter face: "Young Master Ming said There is absolutely nothing wrong with his medication, but Youyou was hurt badly, the pain is unavoidable, and he also said that she knows that pain is a good thing, she still has some consciousness, and the medicine has taken effect, and she will definitely wake up after dawn tomorrow." Spreading his hands as he spoke, "He said that Master Hou was too nervous, and it would be useless for him to come."
Huo Weilou's face showed impatience, Eunuch Fu glanced at Bo Ruoyou, and sighed, "This accident really made Youyou suffer a lot, she was originally a noble person, but now... "
Huo Weilou looked at Bo Ruoyou, and his phoenix eyes were also deep. At this time, Ning Xiao came back from outside to report.
Huo Weilou stood up with an awe-inspiring expression on his face. When he came out of the main hall and saw Ning Xiao, he heard Ning Xiao tell him, "Your Majesty, you can still live. Now that you have taken medicine, you have already been locked up in a prison, but you can't open it." However, judging from the traces found in the dyeing workshop, it was stepped on in that dyeing workshop early in the morning, and I am afraid that I have already planned to hide in that dyeing workshop."
The place Han Sheng took Bo Ruoyou to was the place where he killed Wei Ling. The dyeing workshop was to the east of Changxing Workshop, not far from Cheng Zhai. It was raining heavily tonight, and there were many remote alleys in the east of the city near the Yuxi River. If it weren't for the embroidered clothes envoy's good tracking skills, he might not be able to find Bo Ruoyou so quickly.
Huo Weilou stood by the window, his eyes fell on the rainy night outside, what he recalled in his mind was the thrilling scene, Han Sheng held a carving knife and chased after Bo Ruoyou crazily, no matter how slow his dagger was, One point, Bo Ruoyou will suffer again.
"Don't die, keep your breath, and interrogate for a few more days, and his brother, who has been convicted of covering up, will also be interrogated clearly." His tone was cold, and he said after a moment of silence: "This case Since the embroidered clothes envoy takes over, let the people move into the prison of the direct envoy."
Ning Xiao understood what Huo Weilou meant.
He responded, turned around and left the hall door.
Huo Weilou stood by the window and pondered for a moment, his phoenix eyes were dim, and suddenly he turned around and ordered Fu Gonggong, "Go to the palace tomorrow, and go to the inner storehouse to get some ointment for removing putrefaction and promoting muscle growth. You know this best. Go there yourself."
Eunuch Fu naturally complied, seeing Huo Weilou turned around and entered the inner room, his eyes were red again, his heart ached for Bo Ruoyou, and he was very relieved to see Huo Weilou being so caring.
Huo Weilou sat on the side of the couch for half an hour, the night rain changed from pattering to as thin as a cow's hair, and then it was hard to hear the sound, the lights in the room were dim, and the shadow cast by his body just fell on her body, he looked at her for a moment Looking at her own shadow, she went to look at Bo Ruoyou for a while, but suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly got up to get some ointment to apply to the scratches on her body.
Bo Ruoyou, who was startled when he smeared her back shoulder, was a little uneasy, so he moved his hands and feet more neatly, and then laid her flat, so that he was a little more stable, and then grabbed her hand again, and put it on the small arms of her palm. Smeared on the scratches, in a trance, Huo Weilou actually remembered the days when he went to the battlefield at the beginning of ten years ago.
While rubbing the medicine, Bo Ruoyou didn't know what dreamed about, a pain escaped from her throat, and she began to tremble uneasy again, Huo Weilou felt startled, and just about to lean over to comfort her, Bo Ruoyou, who had kept her eyes tightly closed, You suddenly opened your eyes.
Her beautiful eyes were full of fear and pain, as if she had experienced some unbearable torture in a dream. Seeing someone in front of her, she was even more terrified. She hid in the corner of the head of the bed. There was a whoo-hoo sound in her throat, but she couldn't exclaim because of the injury. She quickly shrank in the corner, hugged her body tremblingly, and big tears rolled down her cheeks. , as if what he saw was not Huo Weilou but an evil ghost who was coming to claim his life.
Huo Weilou stood at the same place, was shocked by her appearance and didn't move for a long time, she cried out of breath, buried her face between her arms, only showing a pair of tearful eyes, Huo Weilou took a step forward under the pressure of surprise , "Bo Ruoyou?"
Bo Ruoyou was even more frightened, and buried her entire face between her arms, pressing her back against the wall, as if trying to save herself a way out, Huo Weilou's heart was shocked when she saw her trembling. It was so bad that he couldn't hold back and hugged her into his arms.
But Bo Ruoyou was struggling, she seemed to be terrified to the extreme, beating Huo Weilou like a madman, Huo Weilou hugged her tightly, calling her name for a long time, but saw her limp on him without warning. in the arms.
She curled up in Huo Weilou's arms, her eyes closed tightly again, as if she fell asleep again, but her body couldn't stop shaking, Huo Weilou didn't dare to let go, and didn't dare to make a sound to wake her up. Pulling Jin was wrapped around her, and after holding her like this for a long time, she realized that her body had softened, and at this moment, there was a ray of light in the sky.
Huo Weilou stayed up all night, and he didn't know if Bo Ruoyou's anomaly at that moment was another nightmare that caused her to have nightmares. His heart was full of surprise and pity, so he just hugged her regardless of other things, and he didn't know how long it had passed. , When the light from the sky was able to illuminate the window lattice, Huo Weilou noticed that the person in his arms moved.
He was afraid that she would have another nightmare, so he quickly tightened his arms, but at this moment, he heard Bo Ruoyou say weakly in a hoarse voice: "I... am I dreaming..."
