Chapter 30: After coaxing the children and the adults, this family can't live without me
He Zhaojun followed Qingqin to the guest room, closed the door, and took off her cloak. Sure enough, her outer robe was soaked with blood.
She looked at the liquor in her hand. Qianlizui was already the strongest liquor of its time. The situation was urgent, and she hadn't even used her own distilled liquor, so she could only make do with what she had.
So she took off her coat, sat at the table, and in the dim candlelight, raised her hand and poured the wine on the wound on her shoulder.
"Hiss... um, um..." The bottle of wine was almost empty. He Zhaojun took the handkerchief out of her mouth tremblingly, waiting for the alcohol to evaporate.
She originally wanted to properly dispose of the bloodstained dress, but she had no strength left. She felt her vision go dark and immediately fainted and lost consciousness.
The next morning, He Zhaojun opened her eyes to bright daylight. She turned over and sat up, only to find that the wound on her back had been properly bandaged, and even her bloodstained dress was gone.
Qing Qi heard that she had woken up and pushed the door open and walked in: "My lady, did you have a good rest last night?"
He Zhaojun nodded in confusion: "My clothes...?"
"Last night, the lady said you had a few more drinks and were not too drunk, so you soaked your dress. I personally changed your drink into Shaoshang's," Qingqi brought over a tray. "Here is the hangover soup. Drink it while it's hot, young lady."
When He Zhaojun picked it up and smelled it, she knew that it was a medicine for stopping bleeding and promoting tissue regeneration. She knew in her heart that Xiao Yuanyi must have discovered it, but she did not point it out and just drank the medicine in one gulp.
"Shao Shang woke up in the morning and went looking for you. It seems that he has something to ask you. Would you like to go and see him?" Qing Qi saw that He Zhaojun remained calm and drank the medicine in one gulp. She was not like other girls at all, and she couldn't help but admire her even more.
Even if the female monarch was sixteen or seventeen years old, she would definitely not have the same character as He Zhaojun.
If Shao Shang could get to know her, it would be a great thing for both the Cheng family and herself. Thinking of this, Qing Qi slowed down his pace and carefully supported He Zhaojun.
He Zhaojun originally wanted to say goodbye to Shaoshang, but she didn't expect that Xiao Yuanyi and Cheng Shi and his wife were both in Jiuzhui Hall.
"He Jia Zhaojun pays her respects to her uncle and aunt. I am grateful for your care last night and have come to express my gratitude." As she said this, she was about to bow to the ground.
Xiao Yuanyi hurriedly supported her, knowing that she was still injured, and arranged for her to sit next to Shao Shang.
"Sister Zhaojun, you are finally here. Mother wants me to go with father to thank Ling Buyi. Think of a way quickly!" Shao Shang took the opportunity to whisper to her.
He Zhaojun remained calm: "Shiyilang is indeed scary. I dare not look at him directly and can't help you." She still remembered that the black-faced evil spirit Ling Buyi held a knife to her neck every day and she didn't say a single good word about him.
Shao Shang was so anxious that he almost cried when he heard this. He simply threw in the towel and said, "Mother, can you please let Sister Zhaojun go with me to the Ling Mansion so I can take her home on the way?"
Xiao Yuanyi looked at the two of them. She originally thought that the two little girls would quarrel over the engagement, or at least have a rift between them. But she secretly observed yesterday and found that He Zhaojun was bold and careful, open-minded and heroic, much better than her own Niao Niao.
He Zhaojun looked at Shao Shang and said to Xiao Yuanyi, "Aunt, I am willing to go. My uncle is in the mansion, and I will guard the door just in case. I will never let Sister Shao Shang suffer any injustice."
"Niaoniao, look at Zhaojun. When you can have her magnanimity, your mother will be relieved!" Xiao Yuanyi frowned.
Cheng Shaoshang lowered his head, let go of He Zhaojun's hand, and stopped talking.
Yes, my mother always thinks that others are better, no matter whether it is Sister Lingling or Concubine Zhaojun, they are always a thousand times better than herself!
He Zhaojun held her forehead and sighed inwardly: I finally coaxed this child! You have to compensate me!
