Indulgence in the Red Chamber

Mrs. Li brought the girl Huiyun to the main room, and did not rush to Jinyu's room to say hello, but went to the wing room first.

In the wing room, two women and a few young girls were warming up around the brazier. Seeing her coming, they all stood up and gave up their seats with a smile. One of the young girls brought tea to Mrs. Li, and said with a smile: "Shu Fu Jin, please use the tea." Tea."

"Is Fujin in the room?" Li Shi took the tea, but didn't drink it, just held it in his palm to keep warm.

"Fu Jin just woke up, and Sister Liansheng is waiting for her to wash her face." The little girl said, and gave Hui Yun the pedals, "Sister, please sit down."

"Oh, that's it, I'm here a bit early. Wait a while and go in to greet Fujin." Li smiled and glanced at Huiyun.

Huiyun pulled the little girl and said: "I heard that you have newly embroidered a pair of shoe uppers, which are very beautiful. Take me to have a look?"

The little girl felt embarrassed when she heard the compliment.Hui Yun didn't care whether she wanted to pull her away or not.The women were always afraid of Mrs. Li's prestige, so they found an excuse to disperse, and there was no one idle in the room for a while.

Mrs. Li looked around to make sure that no one was there. Then she took out the box from her arms, opened it, took out the pill, wrapped it in her handkerchief and put it in her purse, but threw the paper box with the words on it into it. Brazier.Holding the iron chopsticks, he kept poking at the coals, watching the box turn into ashes, that's all.

After taking two sips of tea and calming down, Li Shifang stood up and walked slowly to the door of the house. He saw that the snow was still falling outside, and there were still green leaves on the branches of the osmanthus tree in the yard. , the branches were bent, very beautiful.

Suddenly I heard a laughing voice: "Hey, Shu Fujin is here, why don't you enter the main room?"

Mrs. Li hurriedly turned her head, and saw Liansheng coming out of the main room, wearing a blue satin gown and a silver-red bijia, very cute and cute.So he smiled and said: "When I first came here, I heard that Fujin was still sleeping, how dare I go in? I just have to wait here for a while. Has Fujin woke up now?"

"Just woke up. Shu Fujin, let's go in." Liansheng said, then turned to call someone: "Mother Jing, is Fujin's decoction ready?"

"That's good!" Someone hurriedly responded, Lian Sheng didn't say much, and smiled at Li Shi: "Shu Fu Jin, please."

"Okay..." Mrs. Li nodded, lifted her foot to go out, and walked to the eaves of the corridor, suddenly covered her chest, said "Oops", and bent down.

"Hey! What's wrong with Shu Fujin?" Lian Sheng was startled, and hurriedly asked sideways.

"It's all right, I'm sick, and my heart hurts. It will be fine in a while." Li Shi hurriedly waved his hand, signaling Liansheng to keep quiet: "Don't make noise, be careful to surprise Fujin."

"Then Shu Fujin, please sit in the room. I'll go and get back to Fujin carefully. It's important that Shu Fujin recuperates in the house these few days." Liansheng said, and hurriedly called: "Where is Huiyun? Hurry up and help Shufu Jin." Fujin go back to the room?"

"Here we come." Hui Yun hurried over, supported Li Shi, and said anxiously: "If Fujin is in severe pain, just take a pill of the medicine you brought with you and you will be fine."

"No, look at my memory." As Li said, he took out a pill from his purse and gave it to Hui Yun: "Go find a bowl of water, dissolve it and bring it to me."

"Okay!" Huiyun took the medicine and hurried down, and Mrs. Li returned to the wing room and sat on a chair to wait for the medicine.

Seeing someone serving him, Liansheng turned around and went back to Jinyu.

Not long after, Hui Yun brought a bowl of medicine. Li Shi and her looked at each other, took the medicine and drank it in two gulps, then looked up quietly, and saw a little girl at the door holding a tray and going into the main room. A bowl of medicine.

Mrs. Li glanced at Hui Yun again, and then said sickly: "Let's not make trouble here. Let's go back first."

Huiyun helped Mrs. Li get up, and the women and girls beside her said in unison: Shu Fujin, go slowly.

When Mrs. Li came out of the courtyard, she happened to meet Xuan Ning and Dai Yu who were walking on the snow, and the four of them happened to walk across from each other.

"Hey, Young Master and Miss Lin are here." Seeing Xuan Ning, Li's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously grasped Hui Yun's hand.

"Well, is Shu Fujin going?" Xuan Ning generously held Dai Yu's hand, preventing the little girl from breaking free.

"That's right. Fujin just woke up from sleep. We invited Ann, and we'll go back first. Young Master, please go in." After all, Li Shi was a little guilty, and the smile on his face was a little unnatural.

Xuanning nodded, and led Daiyu into the courtyard gate, followed by Zicuckoo and Snow Goose who quickly blessed Li Shi, and walked a few steps to follow.

"Why do you keep pulling me? You don't know how to let go when you meet someone!" Daiyu complained to Xuanning in a low voice.

"Why let go? I just like pulling you like this."

"You feel embarrassed if you don't look at others."

"Who is embarrassed?" Xuan Ning smiled, looked around, and saw that there was no one in the yard.There were only two women carrying kettles to bring boiling water to the house.

"How embarrassing is Shu Fujin's expression? Didn't you see it?" Daiyu snorted, and finally broke free from his hand with all her strength, and took two steps to run ahead.

"No..." Xuan Ning didn't care that Daiyu had already run away, so he stopped abruptly, thoughtful.

"Young master?" Xue Yan felt curious, and followed him from behind and walked up to him: "Why are you standing still? It's still snowing here, why don't you go inside?"

"That's not right." Xuan Ning frowned, just now when Mrs. Li walked past him, he smelled a faint scent, like musk.His nose is very sensitive to medicinal materials, so there is nothing wrong with the smell of musk.It stands to reason that Mrs. Li should not wear something with musk on her body. This is the most basic medical common sense.These women all look forward to something like a child, how can they wear something with musk on their body?Could it be that she was specifically trying to harm the child in Nala's womb?But it's a little bit unscrupulous to rely on the daily morning and evening.Wouldn't the loss outweigh the gain if I didn't get pregnant in this way?Besides, how long can she come in and stay?It is well known in the entire family that Di Fujin does not like this Shu Fujin.Even if it's morning and evening, it's just a superficial effort. I'm afraid that if you add up to one month, the time that Mrs. Li stands in the main room will not exceed half an hour.With this, she can't harm the child in Nala's stomach at all?

"Master Ning, what are you doing standing in the snow? Fujin please come in quickly." Liansheng came out of the room, holding an umbrella to cover the snowflakes on Xuan Ning's head, and asked strangely.

"Well, it's nothing." Xuan Ning smiled, and felt that he was thinking too much.Then he followed Liansheng into the house.

After entering the room, Xuan Ning didn't come to greet Jin Yu, and suddenly smelled the fragrance again, so he asked, "Who used musk in this room?"

"Musk?!" Jinyu was taken aback, looking at the girls in the room with a bit of anger in his eyes.

"No! Aren't we trying to die? Knowing that Fujin is pregnant, how dare we touch those things?" Nurse Jing served Jinyu just after taking the medicine, and she was really shocked when she heard Xuanning's words.

"But this room clearly smells of musk." Xuan Ning looked at the people around him carefully, and carefully searched for the source of the fragrance.

"Is this the smell of musk?" Daiyu sniffed carefully, and also found a wisp of light fragrance in the air, faintly but refreshing.

"Yes. Yu'er, help me identify, where does this fragrance come from?" Xuan Ning frowned slightly, looking at Jin Yu.

"It seems to be the smell of Fujin." Daiyu said, leaning close to Jinyu to smell it, and confirmed: "The smell of Fujin is relatively strong."

"Ah?" Jinyu was startled, clutching his chest and asked anxiously: "I just took the anti-fetal medicine, could it be..."

"Give me your wrist!" Xuan Ning was startled, and quickly took two steps forward to hold Jin Yu's wrist, his fingers hanging on her pulse, his face turned pale, and he turned to stare at Nanny Jing and asked, "You give it to Fujin?" What did you take?!"

"It's Baotai Pill, it was given by the Tai Hospital..." Nanny Jing trembled all over, and knelt down tremblingly, "Even if this servant is so brave, he wouldn't dare to murder my little elder brother. This is the emperor's relative." Grandson!"

"Give me the medicine bowl!" Xuan Ning said, turned around and rushed to Madam Jing, raised his hand and snatched the medicine bowl, sniffed it at the tip of his nose, and said angrily, "Where is this Baobao pill? It's clearly the Musk Baoxin Pill!"

"My God!" Mother Jing screamed in fright, and fell unconscious on the ground.

"Xuanning..." Jinyu's face was pale at this time, and sweat was already oozing from the forehead, "My stomach... my stomach hurts..."

"Drag her down and watch closely! Tell someone to bring fourth master back!" After Xuan Ning finished speaking, he turned around and knelt in front of Jin Yu, raised his hand to pinch her chin, and said in a low voice: "Fu Jin, Xuan Ning I'd rather offend you." As he spoke, he squeezed Jinyu's mouth open with his fingers, and then the fingers of the other hand penetrated into her mouth, and pressed hard against her throat.

"Oh—" Jin Yu's throat tightened, his stomach clenched, and he opened his mouth to vomit wildly.

Liansheng hurriedly caught it with a spittoon, and Jinyu spit out the soup and medicine and a piece of snack that he just ate, and almost never spit out the yellow water in his stomach.When she finally stopped, her face was covered with sweat and tears.

"Fu Jin, lean here and rest for a while." Lian Sheng supported Jin Yu to lean on a big pillow, and wiped her face with a handkerchief.

"How's the stomach?" Xuan Ning pulled Jin Yu's wrist, checked the pulse again, frowned and said to Lian Sheng: "Take off your Fujin's big clothes, and expose your back and shoulders. I want to give her a needle. "

"Ah? This..."

"Hurry up, or the child in Fujin's belly will be lost!" Xuan Ning ordered coldly.

"Young master, this... this is related to Fujin's reputation..." Liansheng said hesitantly.

"Young master... I don't want it anymore." Jinyu also felt that it was wrong. Although Manchu women were more open than Han women, they were not to the extent that they would take off their clothes and be seen by men other than her husband.

"No! Use the needle immediately." Yinzhen stepped in, with thick snowflakes on his body and head, and water droplets on his eyes and eyebrows, and he came in a hurry.

"Master..." Jinyu's heart felt hot, and she felt a warm current slipping down from her lower abdomen. She subconsciously stretched out her hand to cover her stomach, and felt a sharp pain in her heart, and tears fell down, "Master——"

"Jin'er, it's okay. Let Xuanning give you a needle. I'm right by your side, don't be afraid—it's nothing to be afraid of." Yinzhen stepped forward, stretched out a pair of cold hands to hold Jinyu's shoulders.

"I'm afraid... it's too late... child, child, child..." Jinyu cried and lowered her head. At this time, no one knew better than her that the child was really lost.

"Don't be afraid, it doesn't matter if the child is gone. As long as you are well. You have to be good to me. As long as you are healthy, we can have as many children as we want..." Yinzhen suddenly hugged Jinyu's shrunken body tightly, and his hands He pressed his lips together tightly, and secretly gritted his teeth and swore that he would definitely find out the murderer and cut him into pieces!

"Fourth Master, don't worry, it's too early to say that the child is gone." Xuan Ning still insisted.Although saving people is not his duty, he can't just watch a woman lose her child in front of him, let alone this person is his relative.

"Is there any help? Hurry... find a way!" Yinzhen said, and hurriedly put the woman in his arms on the couch, "Should I use a needle? That's good, Liansheng! Remove the big clothes for you Fujin!"

"Master..." A woman is the most honorable, even though Yinzhen is by her side, but she can't accept taking off her clothes and letting Xuanning give the needle.

"Jin'er, the child is important..." Yinzhen said firmly, and first reached out to unbutton Jinyu's neck, then glared at Liansheng: "Hurry up, why are you dawdling?"

"Oh, yes!" Tears also appeared in Liansheng's eyes. Fourth master's affection for Fujin - it's really unusual.

Xuan Ning didn't think too much about it. Seeing that Jinyu's upper body clothes had been removed, leaving only a pink apron, she took out silver needles from her needle box and applied them to several acupuncture points on her back and waist. Tie it down.

Daiyu leaned against Xueyan's arms, tightly twisting the veil in her hands, sobbing non-stop but dared not make a sound.I was afraid that I would disturb Xuan Ning, who was concentrating on giving acupuncture, and miss Si Fujin's illness.

A quarter of an hour later, Xuan Ning pulled out the silver needle, asked someone to cover Jinyu with a thin quilt, and grabbed her wrist to check her pulse. After a long while, he sighed: "It's finally saved. I'll open another one." For the decoction to protect the fetus, Fujin takes it on time twice a day, and there must be no mistakes. You must be careful, these days you are only resting on the bed, and you must not move the fetal gas again. If there is a mistake, even the gods will not be guaranteed. "

"Have you all heard that?" Yin Zhen shouted in a deep voice as his cold eyes swept over the girl and woman in the room.

"Slaves, please be careful." Lian Sheng led the maids and women in the room to kneel on the ground.

"Get up! Do what you should do, as long as you serve Fujin well, all of you will be heroes of this mansion, otherwise——that's hard to say!" Yin Zhen waved his hand as he spoke, and everyone in the room Everyone stood up tremblingly, and went about their own business.

Yinzhen carried Jinyu into the bed, settled it, let Liansheng and the two maids guard him, and let him out to talk to Xuanning.

"What's the matter today? Just now when I came in, I heard the servants say something here and there, but I didn't hear it clearly. How did you take the Musk Baoxin Pill by mistake?" Yinzhen asked Xuan Ning.

"I can't tell you that. When I came in, the room smelled of musk, so I became suspicious. Later, I saw the medicine bowl where Fujin took medicine. It was clearly the prescription of Shexiang Baoxin Pills. It's not a birth-preserving pill at all. If this twin is used in the Taiyuan Hospital, I'm afraid the royal family won't be able to keep a single heir." Xuan Ning said, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he told the mother-in-law standing at the door: "Not yet. Bring me that woman?!"

"Yes!" The mother-in-law hastily pushed Nanny Jing in.

After entering the door, Mother Jing fell to her knees on the ground, crying and shouting, "I'm wronged!"

Yinzhen looked coldly at Nanny Jing who was kneeling on the ground, and frowned, "Nurse Jing, you are my nanny, and you have watched me grow up since I was a child. Now I also think of your loyalty to me I put you by Fujin's side. It's just thinking that you are a proper person who can take good care of Fujin's body and my child. It's really unexpected! You actually..."

"Fourth master! Fourth master...it's not me, it's really not me...Fourth master treats me as much as a mountain, and my two sons also serve by his side. If I harm Si Fujin, I will be destroyed The crime? The fourth master Mingjian... is really not an old slave..."

"Okay. If you say it's not you, I'll believe it for now. You just tell me, who brought you this bowl of soup?!" Yin Zhen asked sharply.

"It's Sui Sui, the girl in charge of Fujin's hot water in the waiter." Nanny Jing said hastily.

"Call her!" Yinzhen shouted in a deep voice.

No need to call, the butler Dai Duo has already taken care of all the servants in the yard.Just wait for Yinzhen to fall.When something like this happened to Fujin, no one could escape it, ranging from being punished to death.

The little girl named Sui Sui was only eleven or twelve years old, she wore two little braids, and was wearing a blue floral padded jacket. She was so frightened and overwhelmed by Dai Duo that she forgot to kneel down and kowtow .

"You brought the medicine from Fujin?" Yinzhen frowned. Whose bad idea is it for such a young child to serve soup and medicine?

"Yes, originally this was not the servant's business, but the elder sister who was in charge of the decoction was called away by sister Huiyun, so the servant dared to do it.

"Huiyun? Which Huiyun?" Yinzhen asked Dai Duo. The name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember it was the girl from that room.

"It's Shu Fujin's big girl." Dai Duo didn't dare to hide it, so he hurriedly reported the truth.

"She didn't serve in Mrs. Li's house, why did she come here?" Yinzhen asked dissatisfiedly, "Are there any rules in this family?"

"She came together with Shu Fujin to pay respects to Fujin." Dai Duo groaned in his heart, secretly thinking that he might not be able to do this as a housekeeper.

"Tell them master and servant to come here!" Yinzhen suddenly sensed something, patted the table heavily, and ordered.

"Yes!" Dai Duo agreed, and hurried out to ask someone to pass the message.

"What did the two of them do here? You all tell me carefully." Seeing Dai Duo sending a message, Yinzhen continued to ask.

Girls and women dare not hide it, so they have to tell the truth.

Lin Ning suddenly asked: "You Shu Fujin said that your heart hurts, and you have pills with you? Who is going to dissolve the pills with boiling water?"

"It's Huiyun." A woman replied, "We dare not mess with Shufu Jin's things."

"Who else was there at that time?" Xuan Ning continued to ask.

"There is no one else." The woman shook her head and replied.

"Shu Fujin's medicine and Fujin's medicine fell out of the package, do you know?" Xuan Ning asked coldly.

Everyone was shocked.It's okay to take this anti-fetal medicine, but this medicine for treating angina pectoris is given to pregnant women, it's not a joke!Now the people in the waiter are bad!

"Baotai Pill has been replaced by Musk Baoxin Pill. You are still in the dark about such a big thing?" Xuan Ning looked at the people kneeling in the room in disbelief, thinking that there must be a traitor among them!

"Lock all the people in the tea house to the idle room in the northwest corner and let me watch. The rest of the people are not allowed to leave the courtyard. This matter must be clarified!" Yin Zhen clapped his hand again He touched the armrest of the grand master's chair, looked at the door impatiently and asked, "Where is the person from Dai Duo's biography?!"

"Fourth Master——" Dai Duo's voice came anxiously from outside, "back to Fourth Master, Huiyun girl just left the house, Shu Fujin said that her mother is seriously ill, and she wants to see her daughter before she dies. So... ..."

"Bastard!" Yinzhen was furious, pointing at Dai Duo and scolding: "Why don't you tell people to go to her house to get someone?!"

"Yes Yes Yes……"

"Come here! Tie Li Shi first!" Seeing Dai Duo leading people out in a hurry, Yin Zhen said bitterly, "Ask her about the crime of deliberately murdering the heir to the house!"

As soon as Yinzhen's words fell, Li rushed in weeping, knelt down on the ground with a plop, hugged Yinzhen's leg and wept bitterly. This bitch was harmed by taking the wrong medicine, and almost harmed Jin Yunyun.

In short, while crying, she piled all the crimes on Huiyun's head. She only said that she had angina pectoris at the time, and she didn't care about the pain for a while. She drank the medicine when she saw it, and didn't pay attention to what it was...

"When did Shu Fujin get angina pectoris? Where did this Musk Baoxin Pill come from?" Xuan Ning looked at Li's performance with cold eyes, and suddenly asked.

"Returning to Mr. Ning, my angina pectoris only happened a few days ago. I didn't tell anyone because I was afraid of embarrassing Fourth Master and Fujin. I asked Hui Yun to buy this pill quietly from outside. ...Is there anything wrong with this?" Li was flustered for a moment, and didn't want to confront each other, so she concealed the matter of Fu Hai.

Xuanning didn't want to but suddenly smiled, pointed at Li Shi and said to Yinzhen: "Fourth Master, this woman is lying."

"Mr. Ning, I know that you have always looked down on me. You have looked down on me since Fujin gave the dowry before she got married. But you can't say that about me. Anyway, I am also the fourth master's woman..." Li Shi disagreed Looking at Xuan Ning in admiration, she cursed him over and over again in her heart, this damned slave was sharper than fourth master when she asked questions, she really wanted to tear him up and feed him to the dogs.

"Shut up!" Yin Zhen was given a headache by being copied by Li Shi.Originally, he rushed back in the wind and snow, but after entering the door, he was rushed by the heat of the room, causing a dull pain on his forehead, and seeing Jinyu's accident, he was in a hurry, how could he stand the noise of Mrs. Li at this moment?

Xuan Ning was about to speak, but Dai Yu came out from inside, tugged at his sleeve, glanced at him, then walked up to Yin Zhen and said softly: "Master Baylor, Fujin just fell asleep and was woken up again Asked why it was so noisy outside, Fujin also said that he had a few words to say to Fourth Master."

"Yeah. Xuanning, you watch them all go out and kneel in the wing room. You ask this woman, if there is anything wrong, you can wait for me to enforce the family law!" Yinzhen glared at Li Shi bitterly, Get up and go inside.

Xuan Ning looked at the people kneeling on the ground, and asked in a cold voice: "Did you all hear what Fourth Master said?"

"Yes, the servant heard it."

"If you hear it, don't you go to the wing and kneel?"

"Whoo."

Everyone got up tremblingly, and went to the side room to kneel together, only Mrs. Li knelt in place and did not move.

"Li Shi?"

"Master Ning, this is not what you should call." Li Shi knelt in place and remained motionless. She could kneel down to Yinzhen and cry and beg for his mercy, and she could kneel down to Nalashi Jinyu and beg for mercy, so she could get a place in this mansion. The qualifications of life, but I can't wrong myself to speak soft words to a fourth-rank imperial doctor begging for mercy.

"Oh, then what should I call you?" Xuan Ning smiled, squatted down and looked at Mrs. Li: "Do you think that you will be fine if you put the matter on a girl? Let me tell you, then you are dreaming! "

"You..." Li was short of breath, clutched his chest and coughed a few times, glared at Xuan Ning, and finally chose to compromise, got up from the ground, turned and went out, and entered the east wing.

Xuanning was about to leave when Daiyu came out from the inner room again and grabbed his clothes from behind.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Ning looked back and saw Daiyu's red eyes from crying, and slowly squatted down.

"Fu Jin is all right?" Daiyu's voice was very low, and Xuanning was so close to her that she couldn't hear clearly.

Xuan Ning's heart suddenly became erratic, like a snowflake fluttering and falling from the high sky, but he couldn't find a fixed point, and he didn't know where he was going to fall.He didn't speak, but just hugged Xiao Daiyu into his arms, hugging her vigorously, as if she was a snowflake that would turn into a drop of water if she was not careful, and then disappear from his sight.

"Xuanning." Daiyu couldn't breathe under his embrace, but she still didn't struggle, she just let him hug her obediently, and whispered in his ear: "Fu Jin's complexion is so pale, I'm a little scared." ..."

"Don't be afraid. I'll take you back to your room first, okay?" Xuan Ning said, hugging Daiyu, "You haven't had dinner yet, so I'll take you back for dinner. Don't worry here in Fujin, even if you can't keep the child, I'll keep her safe, too."

"However, if the child is really gone, can she live well?"

"Yes, Fujin is a person with many blessings and longevity. God will bless her. She will be unspeakably valuable in the future, which is beyond the reach of ordinary women. Don't worry, Yu'er." Xuan Ning rubbed Daiyu's chin with her cheek. Face, her face is cold and cold, which makes people feel distressed.

Xuan Ning asked Xueyan to bring her a cloak, wrapped Daiyu tightly, and carried her back to Wuxiang Courtyard.
