558: The threshold will be broken
"Steady, steady, don't get complacent." Qiao Jingru looked at Lu Qiao and warned her pretending to be calm.
Lu Qiao nodded seriously, but he couldn't suppress the raised corners of his mouth.
She was not arrogant, she was just feeling a little proud in her heart.
Now Lu Qiao really doesn't feel any jealousy or unwillingness towards the third sister who flies up the branches and becomes a phoenix.
I feel a little bit envious in my heart, the prince and concubine will at least be a princess in the future, but more importantly, I am proud and proud.
As the third sister becomes noble, her status will naturally rise accordingly. Even if she is a concubine, she will have better choices in marriage. Who doesn't want to move up the ladder?
Lu Qiao was once again glad that she suppressed the darkness and desires in her heart and did not become an enemy of the third sister, otherwise there would be no good life now. Seeing that the Lu family is getting better and better, the sisters are harmonious, and their life is extremely smooth.
People in the world often say that if you take a step back, the sea and the sky will be brighter, and you will not deceive her.
It is not that difficult to admit that the third sister is excellent, intelligent and powerful, not to mention that it is the fact.
Lu Xiang turned his head and saw his sister smiling with a silly look on her face. She reached out and poked her fair face: "What are you thinking about?"
Smiling so stupidly.
"Hehe." Lu Qiao came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I was thinking that with the imperial edict granting marriage, the threshold of our family will be broken through in the coming days."
The future Eighth Princess.
You should hurry up and make friends.
…
Liu Chengyu was carried back to Liu's Mansion. After being beaten with a hundred sticks, he fainted.
Manager Mo looked at the bloody master behind him and was startled: "Quick, call the doctor."
Even if there are ten thousand questions in my mind, it is not good to ask them at this time. It is important to heal the injury.
Hearing this, the boy quickly ran out of the house.
"Go to the Privy Council to find the Prime Minister and ask the imperial doctor to come." After all, the doctors outside are not as good as the imperial doctor, but we can't let the third young master wait, so we can only ask the doctor to check the pulse and treat the wound first, and then wait for the imperial doctor to come.
"Yes." Another boy also hurried away.
Then someone else went to the backyard to report Mrs. Liu.
Liu Chengyu's injuries looked really scary, not to mention the fact that Liu Xiang was so powerful that even the servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion had to be greeted with respect when they walked out, let alone the careless ones who collided with the Prime Minister's Mansion's master.
Who is so bold and dares to beat the third young master like this?
A group of servants who followed Liu Chengyu to the Lu Mansion stood in the courtyard with ashen faces. Although the sun was shining brightly above their heads, they felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
When the Prime Minister comes back, they will probably die.
But the master wanted to go to the Lu family to propose marriage, and their slaves stopped him.
When people are unlucky, they can't even drink cold water until their teeth are filled. Who would have thought that the proposal of marriage would be overtaken by the Eighth Prince, and it would also collide with the Emperor's imperial edict on the same day.
Mrs. Liu came to the front yard in a panic. Since Liu Anyao's death, her body has been getting better and weaker. Sometimes she would sit in a daze for the whole day, talking to herself without knowing what to say. The imperial doctor took her pulse and only said
Depression caused by excessive sadness.
Because I was worried about my son, my face, which was not very good-looking, became as pale as paper.
"What's going on?"
Before she even entered the door, she roared angrily.
Manager Mo's heart tightened, and he hurriedly comforted the Madam who was in a state of mental distress: "Don't worry, Madam, the doctor is already inside. I have also asked people to find the Prime Minister, and I will ask an imperial doctor to come and take a closer look. As for the reason, I
Because I am concerned about the safety of the Third Young Master, I haven’t asked the servants who are following me yet.”
Mother Wu quickly helped Mrs. Liu sit down: "Madam, you are weak, sit down and wait."
Mrs. Liu took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, nodded and sat down.
The doctor took his pulse and treated the wound on Liu Chengyu's back.
The basins of water were brought in, and when they were brought out, they turned red. Mrs. Liu felt dizzy and gritted her teeth with hatred.
The honorable second son of the prime minister's house, he has been disrespected by everyone wherever he goes since he was a child. When has he ever suffered such a crime? Today he was beaten like this. He deserves to die.
Mrs. Liu did not dare to disturb the doctor and sat outside, twisting her handkerchief anxiously.
After a while, I heard the greetings from the servants outside.
"This slave has met the Prime Minister."
"Well, let's get up."
When Mrs. Liu heard that Prime Minister Liu had returned home, she hurriedly got up from the bed and said, "Master Prime Minister."
Behind Mr. Liu, there was also an imperial physician who had a good relationship with Mr. Liu. When he saw Mrs. Liu, he nodded in greeting: "Mrs. Liu."
"Mr. Wei is fine." Mrs. Liu said politely, "I would also like to ask the doctor to go see Yu'er quickly."
"Madam, don't panic, I'll go right away," Imperial Physician Wei said and walked towards the inner room.
The doctor heard the conversation outside and learned that the person who came was an imperial physician. When Imperial Physician Wei entered with the medicine box on his back, he hurriedly and respectfully made way.
"See Mr. Liu and pay your respects to the imperial physician."
The doctor knelt down to greet him. Liu Xiang waved his hand lightly and told him to get up. Without saying anything, the doctor quietly stepped aside.
Liu Chengyu's wound had been cleaned and applied with medicine, but it had not been bandaged yet. Liu Xiang looked at the wound from his back to his buttocks and frowned fiercely. He felt sorry for his son's suffering and was angry that someone dared to beat his son.
Doctor Wei took Liu Chengyu's pulse, examined the wound carefully, and then said to Liu Xiang: "The third young master's injury is not serious, but the doctor handled it very well. The most important thing now is to have someone guard him, I'm afraid he will burn up soon.
As long as you get through tonight and take good care of yourself, you'll be fine."
This injury can be big or small. If a high fever develops later and is not treated properly, it may be life-threatening.
When Liu Xiang heard this, he nodded with an ugly face: "I wonder if Imperial Physician Wei can stay temporarily and wait until the dog is stable tomorrow before leaving."
Generally, high fever caused by wound inflammation can easily lead to death, but from the tone of Imperial Physician Wei Yu'er, it was not that serious, but Liu Xiang was also worried.
"Okay." Doctor Wei nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Even if the Prime Minister didn't mention it, he still planned to stay in order to deal with emergencies.
Liu Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, ordered someone to send the doctor away, and presented him with the consultation fee.
Only later did he ask about the cause and consequences of Liu Chengyu's injury.
In the yard, several servants were kneeling tremblingly, and Prime Minister Liu stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes like daggers.
"Speak clearly and don't hide a word."
"Replying to the prime minister, the third young master was ordered to be beaten a hundred times by the eighth prince." A boy said.
When Liu Xiang heard this, he couldn't help being stunned: "Why?"
Boys, you look at me, and I look at you, with shock and fear.
"Why don't you tell me quickly?" Liu Xiang roared angrily.
Everyone's hearts trembled, and one of them said hurriedly: "The third young master called a matchmaker today and went to the Lu family to propose marriage..."
In the middle of the conversation, Liu Xiang suddenly interrupted: "Lu family? Which Lu family?"
