"Sister, the hot water is here."

My husband felt a little sorry for his brand-new dress. When he saw that the fox girl's dress was stained with blood, she couldn't hide the annoyance on her face, and her voice was loud when she turned on the water.

"Sister, are you going to help her bathe?"

Xin Yi's face was solemn and his voice was urgent: "No need for now, go and ask Mrs. An to come over."

"Ms. An?" My beloved was stunned for a moment, and when he was about to ask again, the fox girl suddenly broke away from Xin Yi's hand and growled uneasily, as if she was being frightened, and as if she was threatening her enemy.

Her appearance frightened her husband so much that he took a few steps back reflexively and looked at her as if she was seeing a ghost.

"What's wrong with her?"

"Hurry up and call Mrs. An!" Xin Yi didn't explain. Seeing that the fox girl had fine beads of sweat on her pale face, she was curled up and kneeling on the ground, rolling around without knowing it, and her mouth was saying one after another.

With a low number, his expression was a bit more serious.

"Does it hurt a lot? Just bear with it and I'll help you to the bed."

Xin Yi bent down to help her, but the woman was still struggling, looking at her in horror, not very cooperative. Xin Yi frowned and simply picked her up.

She was said to be pregnant, but this woman was so light and so thin that it was pitiful.

Xin Yi laid the person flat on the bed without much effort.

Her eyes widened, she struggled and tried to escape, but Xin Yi pushed her back.

"Be quiet." Xin Yi spoke to her as calmly as possible without showing any signs of anxiety, "I know you are in pain. Please believe me, I am a doctor and I am helping you, do you understand?"

The woman was panting heavily, with sweat covering her forehead. She was still struggling and yelling, but she didn't say a word.

There were footsteps outside the door, and it was Mrs. An and Xiang Ling who came.

Seeing the blood on the bed, Mrs. An turned her eyes to the woman and hurried over.

"Madam, what's going on?"

"She is pregnant, and the fetus is unstable." Xin Yi said calmly, then neatly pulled off the woman's skirt and placed a quilt on her body.

"My dear, you and Xiang Ling hold her down and don't allow her to move, while I perform the acupuncture."

The husband and Xiang Ling came up together. Unexpectedly, the fox girl was very strong. After a lot of tossing, several people were covered in sweat, but they still refused to stop. The strange and shrill screams made it look like a murder scene.

.

"Stop shouting." Xin Yi's face suddenly darkened, "If you keep doing this, I won't be able to save you. You have worked so hard to survive, do you want to die from a hemorrhage?"

The crazy screams stopped, the woman looked at her with disheveled hair, and fell down weakly.

Xin Yi signaled Mrs. An to unfold her needle bag, then reached out and took out one, and calmly ordered: "Go and pick out a disease now, and bring it over after you have recovered. Eight points for Dipsacus, eight points for Eucommia, and one cent for Sanji."

, five points of dodder, four points of cornus..."

As she talked, Mrs. An took notes.

Xin Yi's hands didn't stop. When Mrs. An went down to pick up the medicine, the acupuncture points on the fox girl's body were already filled with dense silver needles.

Xiang Ling and her husband have been with Xin Yi for so long, and this is the first time they have seen her inject so many needles into someone at once.

Looking at the woman again, she had closed her eyes in a daze, her mouth was opening and closing like a fish, but she made no sound or struggled any more.

"Let me wipe her body."

Xiang Ling let go of her hand and let her husband hold her alone. He twisted a hot handkerchief from the basin and wiped it gently on the woman's face...

The woman's body trembled for a moment, then stopped quickly.

Xiang Ling saw the dark mass on the veil, and then looked at the scars on the face, and for a moment he was at a loss what to do...

"I'll do it." The beloved man took the handkerchief, brought the basin close to the head of the bed, and started scrubbing with quick movements.

"I don't know who could be so cruel to a woman..."

They originally thought that the woman's face had just been disfigured, but they did not expect that after taking off her clothes, they discovered that scars were all over her body. It was difficult for such a big person to find a smooth and smooth skin.

One can imagine how much she suffered...

Just now, my husband had complained that she was a thief and had taken clothes that she was reluctant to wear. But now he really felt sorry for her, and his hands and feet became much lighter, as if he was afraid of hurting her, tenderly and carefully...

…

It was quiet in the house.

The incense exudes a clear and distant scent.

For a while, no one spoke.

It wasn't until Mrs. An brought the cooked medicine and saw the woman who had put on clean clothes and slept with her eyes closed that she realized that the corners of their eyes were moist.

"Oh, it's the girl's family who knows how to feel sorry for her. I don't know who did it."

"What on earth did she go through?"

Everyone has such doubts.

But no one knows the answer and the truth except the sleeping fox girl herself.

Xin Yi signaled Mrs. An to put down the medicine and slowly fed it to her with a spoon. Seeing that she still didn't wake up, she waved her hand to let them go.

"You all go and do your work. I'll just keep watch here. Let her have a good sleep. She must be exhausted... By the way, Xiang Ling, you bring the cat and let it stay here with you.

It took her a while. Come to think of it, she really likes cats, otherwise she wouldn’t have kept them for a few days.”

"Okay." The door closed.

The white gauze curtains moved without any wind, making the room quiet.

~~

Cai Qi's official ship arrived in Bianjing City, but the guards who went to pick him up did not see him.

About half an hour later, a tall, thin man dressed as a businessman hurried to the Imperial City Division and asked to see Fu Jiuqu.

The concierge took a closer look and said, "Hey, isn't this Mr. Cai Xiaohou? Why are you dressed like this?"

Cai Qi glared at him sternly, "What nonsense are you talking about? Where is the prince?"

Fu Jiuqu was sitting in the East Flower Hall sipping tea at the moment. After listening to Wei Mao's report on the poisonous snake, he was thoroughly investigating the follow-up of the Imperial City Division. On the table in front of him, there were many tabloids collected by the people, which were full of various information.

All kinds of news.

As soon as Cai Qi arrived, Fu Jiuqu asked Wei Mao and others to go down.

The door was closed tightly, and Cheng Cang and Duan Sui were guarding the door as usual. Sun Huai did not wait nearby.

"Chonglou. I really gained a lot from this trip."

Cai Qi was a dusty man with a loud voice, and his unshaven appearance actually looked a bit gangster. He was completely unlike the slutty little marquis who wandered around the restaurant Wazi in the capital just a few months ago.

Fu Jiuqu glanced at him and nodded.

Even if Cai Qi didn't bring back any news, he could still detect Cai Qi's transformation - it was already a good harvest.

Cai Qi saw that he was cold-eyed and silent, and suddenly wiped his face and laughed.

"Brother, I almost lost my life. Fortunately, I didn't lose anyone from the Imperial City Department. Good guy, I almost had to take off the trousers of the officials in Shouzhou."

Fu Jiuqu: "Take it and take a look."

Cai Qi chuckled, took off his jacket, and took out a booklet from inside.

"Do you know why I notified the official ship of its arrival in Beijing in advance, but then secretly returned on a merchant ship?"

He threw the booklet in front of Fu Jiuqu and yawned. His bloodshot eyes seemed to be open and closed, and a somewhat teasing smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Every one of the people here want my head, Mr. Cai. They are chasing me all the way, but they don't want me to return to Beijing -"

Fu Jiuqu frowned, but Cai Qi smiled disapprovingly and patted the book twice.

"Brother, I didn't lose you, I just caused you a lot of trouble. If this hornet's nest is getting bigger, it depends on whether your Prince Guangling's elbows are thick enough to withstand it... If you can,

If I don’t stay, I will probably be exiled for three thousand miles and never be seen again in this life.”

Fu Jiuqu picked up the booklet and did not look through it in a hurry. Instead, he looked at Cai Qi's tired face and asked, "Are you injured?"

"No. Fortunately, I'm smart and can sneak away quickly." Cai Qi looked around, directly pulled the fruit plate in front of Fu Jiuqu, picked up a banana, and without caring about dirty hands, peeled off the skin and stuffed it into his mouth.

While eating, he smiled.

"Those dogs in Shouzhou are a nest of snakes and rats. What they say is better than what they sing, but in private they are like one with a human face and a beastly heart. However, they really have a good way of winning people's hearts, and they are not inferior to those old people in Beijing.

Guy... money, beauty, there must be one thing you like, I will give you whatever you want... Tsk tsk, if it weren't for my well-informed brother, I would definitely end up in the beauty den in Shouzhou this time...

"

Fu Jiuqu quietly flipped through the booklet without saying a word.

But the look in his eyes was cold and indifferent, as if a sword light would burst out in the next moment.

After knowing each other for so long, Cai Qi has rarely seen Fu Jiuqu look so cruel.

More often than not, the Prince of Guangling County treats everything calmly and handles everything with ease. Among the cases he handles after taking office, there are many high-ranking officials and relatives of the emperor. He has never been like this...

Cai Qi wanted to peel the second banana, but when he saw this, he stopped and put it back on the plate.
