Don't be tempted, sir

Chapter 48 Qingming Festival

It rained heavily during the Qingming Festival, and pedestrians on the road were heartbroken...

Qizhu became more and more skilled at riding a horse. She rode on the mountain with the prince chasing after her.

"Yan Shang! Are we almost in the capital?"

"There are only a few days left, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Hello! Qingming Festival is coming soon..."

Military generals attach great importance to Qingming Festival. They not only pay tribute to their deceased elders, but also to the souls of those who died in battle.

"It's too late Qizhu, it's better to go slower and be safer!"

Qizhu was angry, "It's all your fault! Why are you getting wet in the rain?"

The prince was helpless: "This... is clearly..."

"I don't care! It's your fault anyway!"

"Okay, okay, blame me! Slow down! It's not safe."

Shen Yining has been at home these days, busy preparing for the Qingming Festival tomb sweeping and ancestor worship with his sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, I'm tired."

After being busy for many days, Wang was the first to take over the management of the household and felt a little overwhelmed. "Some of it, this is my first time doing it too, I'm afraid I can't do it well!"

Shen Yining comforted her, "It's okay, sister-in-law, just take your time in a few days."

"Yes! OK."

Seeing that his sister-in-law was not in good spirits these days, Shen Yining did more work. Today, Shen Yining went out with the shopping boy.

"Look, who's that!"

"I'm finally out after so many days, let's go"

Today Shen Yining went to the temple to fulfill his vow, because he prayed for Qizhu's safety last time. Qizhu wrote to me yesterday, saying that the matter in Yongzhou has come to an end and she is on her way back, but she will not be able to catch up with the Qingming Festival.

The carriage was moving in an orderly manner on the mountain road, but was suddenly hit by a stone and sped up in shock. The driver was thrown off the carriage, and Xingyue was holding Shen Yining in the carriage, which was swayed left and right. It took a while for the horse to stop.

Xingyue fainted in Shen Yining's arms at this moment. The driver caught up with the carriage and hurriedly lifted the curtain to check. Shen Yining hurriedly called out, "Uncle Wu! Come back home! Quickly!"

"Hey, Miss, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, come back home!"

The carriage rushed back to the mansion, and Xingyue woke up and asked weakly, "Miss, are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay! Xingyue..." Shen Yining cried.

"Miss, don't cry! I'm fine."

Xingyue's forehead is bleeding and the visible parts of her arms are red and blue. How can Shen Yining not worry and cry?"

The court doctor came to see him and said that he was fine and just needed to rest and apply some medicine. Shen Changjun came after hearing about this incident without changing his official uniform. "How could this happen!"

The groom told him the whole story. How could Shen Changjun, who had been in the army for many years, not know this? "Investigate! Investigate it thoroughly!"

"Yes!" The servant went out.

When he arrived at the servants' garden, he saw Shen Yining pacing outside, so he hurriedly walked over to him and asked, "Is Yining okay?"

"I'm fine, brother, it's Xingyue who is injured... She blocked a lot for me." Shen Yining sobbed in Changjun's arms.

Changjun patted his back and coaxed him, "It's okay! It's okay, your brother is here."

"House doctor! Use the best medicine!"

"Yes, young master."

The man who threw the stone was caught at noon. Changjun angrily asked, "Tell me! Why did you hurt your sister?"

The man knelt down with his head down without saying a word. Changjun signaled and the servant grabbed the man's hair and made him look up.

"Don't want to tell me? Someone, bring me a whip!"

Changjun showed the barbs on the whip. "You are so lucky! This whip can make you lose two taels of flesh..."

The man was so scared that he said, "I'm telling you, someone gave me money to do this. She asked me to scare the people in the carriage. I don't know who is in the carriage. I just did it for the money."

"Who? Who is it?"

"I don't know that the money is still in my arms."

The servant took it out and brought it to Changjun. Changjun picked it up and sneered, "Master Zhang..."

Bringing the man to Zhang's house, Changjun stood at the door with his hands behind his back. Zhang Zhizhou hurried out to greet him, "I didn't know Captain Shen was coming. I'm sorry for not welcoming him! Please come in!"

Shen Changjun sneered, "I won't come in, I just came to ask, but my Shen Mansion has offended Lord Zhang!"

"Oh! What happened to the captain?"

Shen Changjun threw the silver ingot onto Zhang Zhizhou's chest and said, "Take a good look, it belongs to Master Zhang. Pull him up!"

The servant pulled the man up and threw him to the door of Zhang Zhizhou, shouting, "Speak!"

At this moment, the man was covered with bruises and was too afraid to speak, so he told everything.

Shen Changjun said, "It's a blessing that your sister didn't get hurt today. If there's a next time, don't blame me for being rude!"

Zhang Zhizhou was sweating profusely. "Yes, yes, yes, I understand! I will bring my unfilial daughter with me tomorrow to apologize!"

"No need, don't dirty the Shen Mansion. I think Lord Zhang should know what to do!" Changjun turned and left.

The next day, Zhang Zhizhou took the initiative to request to go to another state to serve. Emperor Yan was puzzled, but also considered Zhang Zhizhou's old age, so he approved it.

"Miss, after this incident, no one else will dare to touch that bitch anymore."

"idiot……"

Shen Yining has been busy with ancestor worship during the day these days and comes to visit Xingyue at night.

Xingyue was still sleeping on the bed. Shen Yining sat beside the bed, gently stroking the scar on her forehead. He remembered something and walked back to the room and took out a porcelain bottle.

The ointment was a little cold, and Xingyue woke up, "Miss!"

"Um……"

"What are you painting, miss?"

"Scar removal cream"

"No, no, this is a gift from Mr. Song to Miss."

"Don't move. I won't be able to use you when I recover. You can't leave a scar on your forehead!"

"Miss... Thank you, Miss."

"Stupid girl, I should thank you!"

"It's all my duty as a slave, my lady!"

"Stop talking nonsense, all right! Three times a day! I'll come and apply it to you when I'm done with my work in the evening, and you have to remember the other two times!"

"Okay, thank you Miss."

"Have a good rest. Tomorrow we will worship our ancestors, Meng Qiu will accompany me. You should have a good rest."

"Okay, Miss, be safe!"

The next morning, they went to Shen Mausoleum, sweeping the tombs, burning incense, and offering sacrifices one by one. Shen Yining said, "I'll go to Changqing's tomb!"

Shen Yining came to the tomb and swept it carefully. The Begonia lamp burned in the fire and turned into ashes. "Long time no see, Shen Changqing! I just found out a few days ago that you have been taking care of the orange tree. Why didn't you tell me? Although I haven't learned it yet, I will definitely take care of them like you! Changqing, they say that too much longing will make you hesitate. I have tried my best not to think about you, but I can't forget you as I promised you... Changqing, I really hope this is just a dream!"

Then he shed tears and burned incense to say goodbye.

After a busy morning, she rushed to clean the soldiers' tombs in the afternoon. At this moment, sister-in-law Wang's face was pale and she was sweating profusely.

Shen Yining noticed something was wrong and asked hurriedly, "Sister-in-law, please take a rest!"

Changjun also came over when he heard the voice and said, "Jiashan, go sit under the shade of the tree over there! I'll come."

"Meng Qiu and Pei Xia help sister-in-law to rest!"

Wang nodded weakly, and fainted on Peixia's shoulder after walking a few steps. Shen Changjun took two steps at a time and picked her up, "Jiashan, Jiashan!"

Shen Yining panicked, "Uncle Wu, the carriage! Big brother, take my sister-in-law down the mountain quickly and find a doctor to see her! I'm here!"

Little Radish Head: "And me!"

Shen Changjun hugged Wang and said, "Yining and Changsi, thank you for your help!" Then he quickly picked up Wang, got into the car and left.

"Sister! What happened to my sister-in-law?"

Shen Yining looked at the direction where the carriage disappeared and said, "Maybe he got heat stroke. I hope he's okay!"

"Sister, what do I need to do?"

"Come here..."
