Chapter 65 Lord Shen helps her apply medicine
The brave Chunxi was trembling in Shen Qingyuan's arms.
"...The assassin was dressed as a maid, but he was so tall that I knew he was a problem. When he got close, I bit him immediately, but he threw me away. That gave me the opportunity to escape through the window."
Chunxi didn't cry, but her voice was full of panic, as if she was frightened.
Shen Qingyuan hugged her tightly, his face cold and frosty.
The other people present also had serious expressions.
If the Wei family really hides a bad guy, what if he hurts His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
As everyone was pondering this, Chunxi spoke again hesitantly, "I don't seem to have offended anyone these days. Sir, do you think that assassin is an accomplice of the killer from Yu County, deliberately seeking revenge on you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire front yard fell into a subtle silence.
Yes, Chunxi was just an unknown little woman. Even if she had offended someone, they were just some ordinary people. How could they sneak into the Wei family and kill her? But it would be much more reasonable if the other party was coming for Shen Qingyuan.
Originally, Shen Qingyuan was in charge of investigating the Ye family murder case. It was only after Shen Qingyuan encountered an accident in Yu County that Wei Lingze took over and continued the investigation.
Wei Lingze was promoted twice thanks to this case, but Shen Qingyuan, who had found clues earlier and was in danger because of it, got nothing.
Although it is not uncommon for people to step on others to gain power in the court, the Wei family has always been upright and famous for its incorruptibility. Why didn't Wei Lingze say a few good words for Shen Qingyuan in front of the emperor?
And if those killers have accomplices, it means that Wei Lingze did not handle the case well and left behind troubles.
Then this high-profile and extravagant promotion banquet is somewhat unworthy of its name.
Everyone had different thoughts. Wei's father looked very unhappy, but Chunxi was just a frightened little woman. As the head of the Wei family, it would be too petty for him to make a fuss about it.
Father Wei frowned and ordered the steward to search with all his strength. Anyone with suspicious behavior should be brought in for questioning. The guest room where Chunxi was staying should also be searched carefully to see if the other party had left any clues.
After giving some instructions, Father Wei looked at Chunxi and wanted to ask for some details, but Shen Qingyuan said solemnly, "My wife is injured and needs to see a doctor."
As Shen Qingyuan spoke, he picked up Chunxi by the waist, his protective attitude obvious.
Father Wei's brows darkened slightly. He didn't want Chunxi to leave until the matter was fully investigated. However, the Crown Prince said, "Mrs. Shen is injured. She really should be seen by a doctor. Today, I want to see who is so bold as to sneak into the Wei family and cause trouble!"
The prince had spoken, and Wei's father had no choice but to obey.
Shen Qingyuan carried Chunxi to the guest room.
Shen Qingyuan's face was extremely cold and gloomy all the way. Chunxi was a little worried. When she entered the guest room, she immediately leaned over to his ear and whispered in his ear, "It happened so suddenly. I came to find you as quickly as possible. I really didn't try to be brave."
Chunxi was about to raise three fingers to swear when her wrist was grabbed. Shen Qingyuan said solemnly, "I'm not mad at you, don't move."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qingyuan's big hand reached out to Chunxi's waist, trying to take off her dress.
Chunxi was startled and subconsciously shrank back: "Sir, what are you doing?"
It's not appropriate to do this in broad daylight, in someone else's house.
Chunxi's eyes widened, a look of disapproval on her face. Shen Qingyuan didn't withdraw his hand, but looked into her eyes and said, "I won't do anything, I'm just looking at the wound on your back."
She was thrown against the wall and must have been seriously injured.
Shen Qingyuan's eyes were filled with concern. Chunxi relaxed a little and whispered, "Don't worry, sir. I'm fine."
"You're still okay even after vomiting blood?"
Vomiting blood?
Chunxi was confused. After thinking for a while, she remembered that it was the blood left in her mouth after she bit Wei Lingze. In order to make the acting more realistic, she spat out a mouthful of blood-stained saliva in front of everyone.
"That's not my blood..."
Chunxi explained in a low voice, but Shen Qingyuan didn't listen. He simply grabbed her hands and raised them above her head. With his other hand, he quickly untied her belt and then opened her clothes.
The room was brightly lit. Although there was no trace of lust in Shen Qingyuan's eyes, Chunxi's face still turned red with embarrassment.
She is not ready to expose herself to adults yet!
Seeing that her face was red as if it was about to bleed, Shen Qingyuan turned Chunxi over and pressed her on the bed. He hooked his fingertips on the back of her collar and pulled it, and the layers of clothes were removed, revealing the girl's tight and delicate waist and back.
Chunxi has been doing physical work in recent years, which consumes a lot of energy and eats a lot. She is not frail and has a very fleshy body, but not fat at all. The curve of her waist is perfect, and she looks healthy and beautiful.
The originally white and smooth back was now covered with large bruises, which was shocking to look at.
Shen Qingyuan pursed his lips tightly, and a dark murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
At this time, the servants of the Wei family arrived with the court doctor. Shen Qingyuan immediately helped Chunxi pull up her clothes, and then let the court doctor come in to treat her.
The bruises on Chunxi's back looked scary, but there was no internal injury. However, Shen Qingyuan insisted that he saw Chunxi vomit blood. The court doctor prescribed a nourishing prescription and asked someone to get some medicine. He gave Shen Qingyuan a blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment.
As soon as the court doctor left, Shen Qingyuan pulled down Chunxi's clothes and applied medicine to her.
The ointment must first be melted in the palm of the hand, rubbed warm before applying it to the back. It requires a lot of force, which Chunxi certainly cannot do by herself, so she can only bury her head in the pillow and pretend that the person helping her apply the ointment is not Shen Qingyuan, but the maid of the Wei family.
However, Shen Qingyuan's fingertips had thin calluses, and his palms were large and hot. No matter how Chunxi tried to persuade herself, she could not ignore that these were a man's hands.
That's it.
Anyway, she is married to the adults, so it’s no big deal to let the adults look at her and touch her back.
And before getting married, she also looked at and touched the adults, so let's just consider it even.
No one suffers.
After applying the medicine, Shen Qingyuan took Chunxi back to the front yard, and Wei Lingze and Xiao Qinghe also arrived.
From a distance, Wei Lingze saw Chunxi's rosy cheeks and shy eyes filled with water. Unlike the fierce and aggressive look in front of him, it looked like she had just been rained on and was blooming beautifully.
Although he knew that Shen Qingyuan would never do anything with Chunxi in the Wei family, Wei Lingze still couldn't help but pinch his palm, his anger boiling.
It feels like my personal property has been defiled by others.
Wei Lingze's hostility was quite obvious. Shen Qingyuan put his arm around Chunxi's waist and pulled her into his arms, covering her tightly and not allowing any peeping.
At this moment, the guard that the Crown Prince had sent to search with the Wei family's steward hurried back, holding something: "Your Highness, we found this jade pendant outside the guest room that Madam Shen just mentioned."
The guard presented the jade pendant with both hands, and people who were closer could see the style of the jade pendant clearly.
Wei's father's expression suddenly darkened, and Wei Lingze almost bit his teeth off.
That was the wedding gift he had asked Wang to give to Chunxi. It was something he always carried with him. Outsiders might not be able to recognize it, but people who knew him well could tell it at a glance.
How dare this woman use this jade pendant to frame him!
