Chapter 63: Do you want to silence me?
Green tiles and flying eaves, carved beams and painted buildings.
There is white snow on the brown branches.
Reflecting the wintersweet buds that are about to bloom.
In a large mansion in Jiangzhou City.
A mummy.
Oh! No.
It was a young man wrapped tightly in white cloth.
Sitting upright on the couch, revealing two clear and bright eyes.
A thin old man with a goatee was holding a pair of scissors and carefully removing the strips of cloth from his body.
The old servant Shi Shu stood by holding a wooden tray with the cloth strips that had just been taken off.
The blood-stained cloth...
"Doctor An, how is the master recovering?" The old servant's eyes were full of worry.
Doctor An removed the last piece of cloth from the boy and breathed a sigh of relief.
He replied respectfully, "Master, you are fine. The wound has already scabbed over. The next step is to apply the saprophytic ointment. I just don't know if the ointment will really work."
The boy looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a face as handsome as jade and skin as white as snow.
But the snow-white skin was covered with dense scars.
Very glaring...
When he took off the bear skin, he almost lost a layer of skin and it hurt so much that he was almost dying.
I have suffered a lot!
"Apply the medicine!" Fu Lingjun gritted his teeth and turned his head away.
The old servant Shi Shu stood by and wiped his tears, feeling very distressed.
Doctor An is the most skilled doctor in the Imperial Medical Bureau. He has no other options, so the only thing he can do is try his best to save the situation.
Xu Heng stood outside the door, shivering, holding the ointment.
It was all thanks to Lu Qingyao. With her token, they sent someone on horseback to rush 800 miles to the capital, and only then did they obtain the ointment from the Duke's Mansion.
No matter whether it works or not, let’s take a gamble!
Shi Shu took the ointment from Xu Heng and said, "Thank you, Master Xu. You may return first... Remember, do not let a single word of this matter slip out!"
There was a threat in his tone.
"Yes, I know." Xu Heng raised his voice and replied respectfully to the room.
He is still unsure about this person's identity.
I guess He Lingjun is not his real name.
But he had someone investigate the other young man named Song Siyuan.
He is the grandson of Censor Song and the only son of the eldest son of the Song family.
The whole family is taking care of the baby.
After this disaster, the Song family sent many people to look for him everywhere.
But I didn't expect them to become like this.
If they had not encountered the two children of the Jiang family being beggared, they would probably never have the chance to see their family again in this life.
Even if you stand in front of your parents, you may not recognize them.
Just as Xu Heng was about to leave, he was stopped by a voice from inside the house.
"Master Xu, please stay and rest in the main hall for a while. I have something to ask you."
Then a maid came out and led him out of the back house.
The house is not big, but it is exquisitely and elegantly decorated.
Pavilions, towers, bridges and gurgling water,
In the rockery on one side of the corridor, lush green bamboos stand tall.
Reflected on the screen wall, the shadows of the pillars are mottled, giving it a unique charm.
There were no other female members in the garden except the maids and old women. I guess it was just a temporary residence.
What is incredible is that there are many secret guards hiding around the yard.
If he had any ill intentions, he would have been riddled with blood by now...
Doctor An applied ointment on the young man and then took a new piece of cloth to wrap it around his wound.
He secretly thanked his lucky stars that it was winter and the wounds were not easy to rot, otherwise he would not have enough heads to chop off.
"Your Highness, please have a good rest. I will take my leave!"
The old man with a goatee bowed and prepared to leave.
Fu Lingjun: "Doctor An, the Song family's son is next door, please go and help him."
"Yes." The old man responded and left.
"Master, you have suffered. It is all because of my incompetence..." The old servant burst into tears and picked up the cloak to wrap the master.
Although the master was too embarrassed to speak, he could tell from the way he looked when he first came back and how bruised he was later.
It is hard to imagine the inhuman torture he suffered.
That damn kidnapper!
What's the big deal about killing nine generations of a clan? If possible, I would dig up their ancestral graves and drag out their ancestors to whip their corpses!
"Master, who are the people who know about this? Do you want to..."
Shi Shu raised his hand and gestured to his neck.
Do you want to silence him?
We must never let others know that the master was raped and became a blind bear for people's entertainment.
That would make the world laugh at us, and the royal family's reputation must not be lost...
"No!" Fu Lingjun said sternly.
"They are all my benefactors. Besides... under those circumstances, they couldn't recognize me at all. Even if we met face to face now, they might not recognize me."
"But Your Highness, even if we don't do it, the Queen won't let them go. Anyone who has seen you in that state will probably..." Shi Shu's voice became smaller and smaller.
"Shi Shu, pass the order down. Don't reveal a single word about what happened to me. Otherwise, you will all die without a burial place. Understand?"
Fu Lingjun was afraid of losing face for the royal family when he returned, so his mother was so angry that she killed all the people in the garden.
Not only the children from Qingshi Town, but also County Magistrate Xu and everyone in this garden...
That's why I stayed here to recuperate.
Shi Shu nodded.
He shuddered at the thought of the Queen's tyrannical methods.
Fu Lingjun thought for a moment and said, "Please invite County Magistrate Xu over."
Shi Shu responded and left.
After a while, Xu Heng followed him in.
As soon as he entered the room and saw the young man sitting in the seat of honor, he didn't know how to greet him for a moment.
Hearing the shrill voices of the servants, he had a vague guess.
Those who could be served by eunuchs were either from the palace or from the prince's or princess's mansion.
this......
never mind!
The more you know, the faster you die.
Don't want to know.
"Please take a seat, Lord Xu. No need to be so polite!" Fu Lingjun pointed to the seat opposite.
Xu Heng sat down. Because the other person's face was wrapped in cloth, it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or sad.
Xu Heng was also a little nervous.
If you can't see the other person's expression, you can't sense their emotional ups and downs.
It's like crossing a river by feeling the stones.
This feeling is not good.
Fu Lingjun spoke first and asked, "Your Excellency must be very curious about my identity, right?"
Xu Heng: “…”
If you are not curious, please don’t say it!
If it's fine, that's fine.
If you still want to know his identity after seeing him like that, you must be tired of living.
Fu Lingjun twitched the corner of his mouth slightly. "I asked Master Xu to stay because I wanted to find out the identity of the family that saved me. You must know, right?"
Xu Heng pursed his lips and thought for a moment, "Young Master, do you know Minister Jiang of the Ministry of Rites? They are Lord Jiang's wife and children..."
Although I don't know what this young man intends to do.
But it is definitely right to bring out Minister Jiang. If the sky falls, there will be a tall man like him to hold it up.
Why bother making things difficult for a few women and children?
This matter!
It depends on how the young man in front of me handles it.
If we remember their kindness, then it would be fine.
If he is ungrateful and wants to silence me, then hiding it is useless...
