Liu Huafei

After the fifty rods were struck, Nian Hua was a little confused.The Empress Dowager originally wanted to kill her because of a man, but she expected that her son would not fall out with her mother because of a man.It's just that after he calmed down, he felt that it was not worth fighting with the emperor over such a matter.

Fuqing watched the execution eunuch come back to report after beating, the queen mother sighed softly and waved her hand, asking him to send Nianhua away.

"Fuqing, please go and ask the emperor to come over, just say that Ai's family is not feeling well." The Empress Dowager stopped Fuqing who was about to go out, and said after thinking about it.

As usual, Xiao Lizi and Yun Zhi saved dinner for Nian Hua to eat together when he came back, but this time Nian Hua was carried back with a dying appearance.

Xiao Lizi has served in the palace for many years, so he naturally recognized that the leading old eunuch was served by the empress dowager's side, and immediately understood that the past years were embarrassing for the empress dowager.

It's just that the Empress Dowager ignored the affairs of the harem for many years and devoted herself to worshiping the Buddha. How could she take care of Nianhua's affairs this time and beat Nianhua into such a serious injury.

A second-rank guard in the camp was carried in sideways, which naturally alarmed the guards in the camp.Ling Qing, who was dressed in casual clothes, rushed over when he heard the news. When he saw Nianhua's miserable appearance, his pair of handsome brows frowned tightly.

"Commander Ling, I know it's impolite to interrupt the miscellaneous family without saying hello. It's just that this is the order of the empress dowager, so please take care of Commander Ling." Fuqing said to Ling Qing with a smile on his face.

Ling Qing clenched his fists and said, "I don't know how the people in my camp offended the Empress Dowager and received such punishment."

The smile on Fuqing's face remained unchanged, and he snorted lightly from his nose and said, "We all know it well, why should Commander Ling ask why he knows it?"

As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves, and led the palace servants away calmly.

Ling Qing stared at the arrogant back with displeasure, suppressed the anger rising in his heart, turned around and squatted beside Nian Hua, worried: "Nian Hua, how are you?"

"It hurts—" Nianhua said in a low voice, her eyes under her frowning brows were red with tears, her complexion was pale, and her angry appearance scared Xiao Lizi and Yun Zhi into a panic.

Ling Qing pushed away the helpless and tearful little Lizi who was holding Nianhua, hugged Nianhua, stared at Yunzhi and said, "What are you still doing in a daze?! Hurry up and prepare a soft quilt, clean water, and wound medicine." ! Hurry up!"

Yun Zhi came back to her senses, and hurriedly ran to get ready with Xiao Lizi.

Ling Qing said to a guard behind him: "Go to Longxing Hall to find Eunuch Liu, and tell him that Mr. Nian is seriously injured, please report it to the emperor." Then he ordered another person to come to the imperial doctor.

The two guards nodded in response, then moved away quickly with light kung fu.

"It hurts..." Nianhua's back and buttocks were all beaten to pieces. At this moment, he felt burning pain all over his body, as uncomfortable as being burned by a raging fire.

Seeing that he was delirious and would only cry out for pain, Ling Qing was originally sure that his internal strength would not hurt his bones, but now he was a little shaken, for fear that the Queen Mother would use some other tricky tricks on him.

"Hold on, Nianhua, I'll heal your wounds, you'll be fine." Ling Qing gritted his teeth and walked in with Nianhua in his arms, comforting softly.

"Ling Qing?" Nianhua opened his eyes and looked at him, "Where's the emperor?"

"I sent someone to tell the emperor, the emperor will be here soon." Ling Qing continued to comfort him.

Nianhua nodded, and saw clearly the worry on Ling Qing's face for him again, a feeling of warmth mixed with emotion in his heart.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, it just hurts too much..." Nianhua murmured.

As the two talked, Lingqing had already carried Nianhua into the room, placed him on Yunzhi's thick bed, and let him lie face down.

Ling Qing picked up Nianhua's blood-soaked clothes on the back, the tattered clothes had long been glued together with flesh and blood, and Nianhua's low gasp could be heard when he pulled it a little.

Ling Qing gritted her teeth and said, "Nianhua, hold on, I'll help you heal."

"Why do you want to treat my wounds, Lord Commander." Nianhua moved slightly and was so painful that he burst into tears. He wiped his face with his hands, and continued: "Didn't you ask the imperial doctor?"

Ling Qing was silent for a moment, and then explained: "Your injury was caused by the Queen Mother, so there is no guarantee that the Queen Mother will not issue a decree to the imperial hospital. We can't rely on the imperial doctor. Don't worry, I have led the army for many years to treat injuries. His technique is better than that of many imperial physicians."

Nianhua nodded, lay down, and said sullenly, "Oh. Then you should try not to leave me with a scar..."

Ling Qing was flashed by him for a moment, and said with hatred, "You are a big man, why are you afraid of leaving scars?"

"It's not a knife wound or an arrow wound, it's a man's feat... It's a shame..." Nian Hua's voice became lower and lower, and he wanted to fall asleep again, "Besides, Yuan Mutian wouldn't like it..."

Ling Qing paused, shook his head helplessly, and slowly cut Nian Hua's clothes on his waist and back: "Okay, I will definitely not let you have scars."

Nianhua was dizzy throughout the treatment process, and then he was completely in a state of not being sober. He didn't know whether Ling Qing treated his injury or the imperial doctor finally appeared.In short, when he woke up the next day, the wound on his body had been well-medicated and bandaged neatly. During the night's rest, the true qi in his body was also repairing itself. Yesterday he felt as if he was about to die, but today he felt alive again.

Xiao Lizi and Yunzhi, who were lying on the bedside and fell asleep, were shaken up by Nianhua, and rushed to them hungry for food.The two of them were finally relieved from worrying all night, Xiao Lizi happily went to prepare breakfast, Yunzhi was about to go out to tell Commander Ling, but Nianhua stopped him.

"Where's Yuan Mutian? Where is he?" Nian Hua asked suspiciously.He remembered that Ling Qing asked someone to tell him about his injuries last night, and since there was no major military affairs recently, Yuan Mutian would not stop visiting him.

Yun Zhi paused for a moment, but still replied: "Nianhua, Your Majesty...he didn't come over last night."
