Chapter 399: The Concubine's Sister Travels Through Time VS the First Sister Reborn (5)
"Alright, go ahead. Let's get the court doctor tomorrow to take a good look. Mother didn't mean it." Liu Yanqing softened her tone and her gentle eyes fell on her eldest daughter, but she unexpectedly caught a glimpse of fear in her eyes.
She sighed inaudibly and walked towards her eldest daughter step by step, her eyes gentle, "Did mother hurt you just now?"
Shi Yi shook her head gently, but when she opened her mouth to speak, she spat out a mouthful of blood.
Liu Yanqing immediately panicked, and her eldest daughter's hand was shaking. She shouted outside, "Call the court doctor, call the court doctor quickly."
She didn't expect that her kick would be so heavy that her eldest daughter vomited blood.
Shi Yi held her hand tightly and pretended to be strong, saying, "Mother, I'm fine. I just didn't rest well these days."
"Don't talk, sit down quickly, and wait for the court doctor to come." Liu Yanqing forcefully pulled her eldest daughter to sit down at the table.
She also reacted and realized that her action of kicking someone just now was really inappropriate. The eldest daughter was a typical official lady who was raised in the boudoir and had never touched women. When she was young, she had learned martial arts for a long time. That kick must have unconsciously infused strength...
"Mother, I'm fine." Shi Yi still comforted her.
She took this kick to prepare for easing the atmosphere later.
Some experts and scholars have done statistics. If you argue with an angry person, whether you win or lose, you lose. Under the same conditions, if you are humble, the angry person will blame himself more. What she needs is the self-blame and guilt of her mother.
Otherwise, the next time Ge Yuyi comes to complain, she will be punished once, which is too miserable.
The Fourth Prince's Mansion.
"Do you feel anything strange today? It seems that I am much more tired today than in the past. I feel very sleepy and I can't even open my eyes."
"No, I think it's all normal. Isn't this the same as before?"
The two guards at the door talked sleepily. The guard who said "It makes no difference" closed his eyes heavily, obviously he was extremely sleepy.
"Hey, wake up. Forget it, you and I will take a day off tomorrow morning, and have a good sleep then." The guard who was less sleepy pinched his palms to make himself more conscious.
In the room, the fourth prince Qi Yanlian was in high spirits. He could almost calculate the time when his brother died. This was exactly what excited him.
Although he was also a member of the royal family, as long as his eldest brother was alive, his father's eyes would not fall on the other three sons. Only when his eldest brother died, his father could make a more fair judgment.
He was eager to try this day. He didn't even feel the pain on his chest.
"Go back. Don't keep blowing the wind here." He walked out of his room excitedly and came to the door. Seeing the two sleepy guards, he was no longer angry, but breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Fourth Prince, but I dare not leave my post without permission." The guard who had been dozing off the most suddenly woke up.
"Go back. I'll stay here." The Fourth Prince took the initiative to stand beside him. Anyway, he couldn't sleep tonight, so he might as well make some contributions here.
"How dare I trouble you with such a small matter?" The other guard was so anxious that his face turned pale. The two of them were not only sleepy now, but also wanted to die.
Being caught by the boss at your job is dereliction of duty!
"Go, go." Qi Yanlian patted the shoulder of the guard next to him heavily, thinking that he would obey and leave, but he didn't expect that the two guards standing at the door would kneel heavily on the ground and beg for mercy.
"Alas..." He had no intention of getting entangled with them, so he had to turn around and go back to his room.
He thought he could emulate the ancient saints and win a reputation for being generous and considerate to his guards, but he didn't expect that these people were used to being servants and didn't dare to cross the line.
Forget it... I'd better go back and lie down to take good care of my body.
Seeing that the Fourth Prince had walked far away, the two guards relaxed their straight backs, but they kept muttering in their hearts.
To them, the Fourth Prince was a treacherous person. If they, the servants, were not obedient, what awaited them would be the road to hell.
Ge Mansion.
"Rest quickly. The doctor said that you need to take good care of your body." Liu Yanqing pressed Shi Yi on the bed and prevented her from getting up.
In fact, although she was not satisfied with the current situation, she also felt it was good.
She didn't like the concubine in the mansion, but her eldest daughter agreed to take the concubine to the poetry meeting of the princess. Now that the eldest daughter is sick, she can't go to the poetry meeting, so the concubine can't go with her.
The second daughter Yuyi was right. It didn't matter if her eldest daughter, whom she had worked so hard to cultivate, didn't participate in the poetry meeting held by the princess. But if the concubine became popular at the poetry meeting, wouldn't it be a burden on her Ge Mansion? Being in the limelight is actually a good thing. The worst thing is to make a fool of yourself. Then the whole Kyoto will probably know that Liu Yanqing is not strict in discipline.
"Mother, thank you for your concern. It's my daughter who is not doing well and makes you angry." Shi Yi held her hand and said this with red eyes.
She is the eldest daughter that her mother loves the most, so she naturally knows which set of rules her mother likes the most.
Liu Yanqing didn't expect that her eldest daughter would be so generous and not bear grudges. For a moment, she felt that she was too narrow-minded as a mother, and she even did such a stupid thing as kicking her daughter!
Her lips trembled, and finally patted the back of her eldest daughter's hand, and whispered: "Heal your wounds well."
Shi Yi nodded gently, lay down, but turned her back very quickly. Even though she was too fast, Liu Yanqing, as a mother, still found her daughter's face full of tears.
"Alas..." She sighed in her heart and walked out of the room step by step.
What did she do today!
The slightest movement in the Ge Mansion naturally could not be hidden from the servants. The news that the second young lady was kicked by her mother spread throughout the mansion immediately. When Ge Yuyi found out that her elder sister was beaten by her mother, she was so happy that she almost jumped up and down. She had always been jealous of her elder sister because she was favored more than herself, but she didn't expect that no matter how much favor she received, it would only be worth the illusory reputation of the Ge family.
She looked at Ge Mingyi's remote little house from afar, full of pride: My beloved elder sister is not my opponent in this life, how can you, who was played in my palm in the last life, be my opponent?
It's a pity that she underestimated Ge Mingyi's determination to succeed.
For Ge Mingyi, if this road is blocked, she will find another way.
