Dont Be A Kept Man - Chapter 142

Xiao Fengwu was lying down, but in fact, there was no sleepiness. He tapped his fingertips on the bed irregularly, and hit the bottom of his heart. He closed his eyes, recalling the empress’s pulse, and frowned unconsciously. It was tight, and I don’t know why, after a long time, I suddenly got up from the bed and got up.

Xiao Fengchuan was shocked, and whispered, “What are you doing, I’m scared to death at night!”

The queen may be giving birth tonight–

Xiao Fengwu moved his lips, and finally swallowed these words without saying a word. He sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed with his fingers interlocking, so strong that the joints were turning blue. With the slight moonlight outside the ventilation window, Xiao Fengchuan found Xiao Fengwu’s jaw. The line was so tight that even the blue veins on his forehead became violent. I only felt that he was wicked, and didn’t dare to alarm him anymore. He quietly moved a little farther away and found a horn to continue sleeping.

The bright moon hangs high, but the lights in the palace are brightly lit, and the palace people in Jingyang Palace enter and exit, filled with a kind of silent tension. The carved wooden windows are closed to isolate the cold wind at night, but there are always intermittent screams of women The sound came out.

At first there was some strength, but in the end the voice became weaker and weaker, almost inaudible.

The emperor was sitting outside the hall with a string of Buddhist beads in his hand. It rolled back and forth. The speed was getting faster and faster. When a court lady ran out of the inner room with a cry of crying, the string of beads suddenly broke. It rolled all over the floor, and the sound of crackling was endless.

The palace lady knelt to the ground crying: “Your Majesty, Niang Niang… Niang Niang passed out…”

When a woman gave birth, she was most afraid of fainting. When she was exhausted, she was in danger of death. The emperor opened his eyes when he heard the words. The sharpness inside made people afraid to look directly at him. He stood up from his chair in a deep voice. Said: “If the queen has the slightest handicap, everyone in the hospital will be buried!”

The eunuchs and court ladies in the hall knelt down, appearing more and more dead, and the emperor’s words were passed to the inner room without fail.

The imperial doctors counted in the Taiyuan Hospital are all here. Across a screen, they are anxiously discussing countermeasures. The smell of blood permeates the room, which makes people feel nauseous. Xiao Linru takes the pulse for the queen through a curtain. The dough is like ashes.

The doctor woman asked anxiously, “Doctor Xiao, what should I do?”

Xiao Linru got up with an ugly expression, “Fed another pill of Pei Yuan.”

A court lady came in with a hot cotton pad and accidentally tripped when she passed him. Xiao Linru subconsciously supported her, but there was a thick pile of paper in his hand. He raised his eyes in surprise, but the lady did not look at him. , Went straight into the curtain.

Xiao Linru hid the prescription in his sleeve, and hurriedly glanced at his back when everyone was not paying attention. On his face, he was shocked and hesitated. At this moment, the doctor girl’s anxious voice came from behind the screen: “Master Xiao! I have been fed the Peiyuan Pill, but my mother’s breath is getting weaker and weaker—”

“Wow!”

Xiao Linru couldn’t control his strength when he heard the words. The prescription was immediately torn apart. His facial muscles twitched, and he paced back and forth like a trapped beast. The cold sweat fell down. The whole person was like fished out of the water, and finally stomped fiercely, as if He made a certain big decision: “Take the knife and spirits, take a laparotomy for the mother, take the knife from the moon, everything is as I said!”

Cong Yue is the best doctor in the Taiyuan Hospital. She looks pale, but she dare not defy her. Folk women also use this method when they have dystocia. It’s just that the queen’s phoenix body is golden and precious. Who dares to use the knife easily, but now this The situation is not as good as a dead horse as a living horse doctor, or better than a burial at Quantai Hospital.

The **** guarding the gate outside Jingyang Hall only heard the tea cup cracking inside. I don’t know what happened. The emperor seemed to be very angry, as if he was about to eat people, all of them curled up and kept quiet, but I don’t know why. After a while, it was quiet again, only the palace servants who were waiting for the birth came in and out, and the blood poured out.

The night seemed to be extremely long. The little **** who was guarding the gate was standing numb, but thinking that the emperor was sitting in it, he didn’t dare to change the value, he could only be so hard, and the invisible pressure was entrenched in his heart. asphyxia.

I don’t know how long it has been, one hour, or two hours. The second half of the night is when people are most sleepy. When a faint baby crying sounded, everyone could not help but feel refreshed, and their eyes widened together—

Is the queen empress finally born? !

This thought just came to my mind, and there was another busy exclamation.

“It’s not good! Empress’ blood collapsed!”

A ray of dawn in the sky shines through the thick clouds, but it makes people unable to feel the light. The glazed tiles on the Jingyang Temple are stained with a layer of brilliant color, the red sun is rising, the sky is bright…

Xiao Fengwu stayed up all night, he let go, his palms were full of deep nail marks, he got off the bed again, moved his sore legs, and then looked out through the palm-sized skylight, a bird just flopped. Fly over.

Xiao Fengchuan also slept peacefully on the dirty ground, Xu Ye was dazzled by the morning light, covered his face with his hands displeased, muttered a few words, turned over and continued to fall asleep, snoring like thunder.

Xiao Fengwu glanced around, and suddenly realized that he was not the most heartless person in the Xiao family.

When the hour came, a government official came to deliver the food. Jiang Ping’an carried the porridge buckets one by one to deliver the bowls. Those who fell asleep and couldn’t wake up were hungry. Xiao Fengwu grabbed the railing and asked in a low voice when receiving the bowls. What news is coming?”

Jiang Pingan said: “Yes, the official who came to our side for inspection last time seems to have participated in our county grandfather’s book, saying that it is corruption or the side, and he will have a new one soon.”

Xiao Fengwu was a little disappointed. Yancheng was neither far nor near to the capital. Even if there was news, it did not come through so quickly. He wanted to ask Qin Mingyue about the current situation, but after considering for a long time, he could only open his mouth and be bored. Sheng poured the bowl of porridge into his stomach.

Xiao Fengchuan is not an honest person. He has been courageous since he was young. He has always bullied people with his brute force. He was sleeping well, and suddenly there was a squeaking sound in his ear. He opened his eyes and realized that it was A gray-skinned mouse slid and disappeared.

Seeing this, Xiao Fengchuan kicked away the hay at his feet, only to find a mouse hole in the corner. The prison was in disrepair for a long time, and the wall was rotten. With a slight twist, the bricks and stones were broken into slag, and his eyes were dripping. Rotating, plucking up strength, hammering with a muffled fist, with a click, the mouse hole is a little bigger than the naked eye.

Xiao Fengchuan couldn’t do anything in his head. When he saw this, he was overjoyed. He didn’t come over again. He took off his clothes and wrapped his hands in his sleeves, digging with all his might. Xiao Fengwu had no sleep yesterday. He was lying in bed during the day to make up for sleep. Find.

The opening of the hole is not big, and it can be blocked by a pile of hay. Xiao Fengchuan dug it all morning, but no one noticed it.

The first thing I found was Xiao Fengming. After lunch, everyone went to take a nap. He was idle by himself. Seeing Xiao Fengchuan squatting in the corner with his shirtless body alone, he didn’t know what he was doing, so he leaned forward. I wanted to take a closer look, but was tightly blocked by his body shape, and finally frowned and patted the railing: “Unlucky stuff, what are you doing?”

“what?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fengchuan turned his head blankly, revealing a hole the size of a watermelon on one side of his body. Xiao Fengming’s eyes widened when he saw it, and he couldn’t get up to his chest in one breath. He almost choked to death. He hammered his chest desperately and pointed at him in horror. Said: “You, you, you…you are crazy! Escape from prison is a capital crime!!”

Xiao Fengchuan rolled his eyes upon hearing this, “Then you don’t have to die if you stay here?”

Xiao Fengming jumped anxiously, looked around and found that no one saw it, and hurriedly said: “Hurry up! Hurry up and block it for me! You ran away by yourself, but we all have to sit together, **** stuff, our brains caught in the door Isn’t it?!”

Xiao Fengchuan’s boss was unwilling, and he didn’t want to move.

Xiao Fengming became dumbfounded, and directly called Xiao Fengwu: “Sixteen! Sixteen! Don’t sleep! Get up and take care of this bastard! No matter what’s going on!”

The voice came out, Xiao Fengwu woke up, and the government officials also came.

The dungeon was already dark, and suddenly there was a watermelon-sized hole. The light came in from the outside. It was not a bit bright. Xiao Fengchuan put on his clothes in twos and threes and quickly blocked the hole, but his body was stiff and his face was flustered, which made people You can tell there are ghosts at a glance.

Jiang Ping’an looked at him suspiciously and knocked on the cell door with his saber: “Get up.”

Xiao Fengchuan shook his head desperately, just can’t afford it.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Fengwu probably understood what had happened. He sneered and didn’t want to worry about it. He continued to lie down to sleep, but saw that the yacha whispered something to a brother. Not long after, he only heard a scream, Xiao Fengchuan held his hands. He jumped up from the ground like his hips were burning.

A government officer lay outside the cave and said, “Head! So he wants to escape from prison!”

Jiang Ping’an frowned when he heard the words, and waved: “Take the person away, and quickly find someone to fill in the hole!”

What happened to the prisoner, the yaman couldn’t escape the relationship. Xiao Fengchuan was dragged out, tied to a rack and used 30 whips. The whip pierced people’s ears with a cracking sound, mixed with his crying father and mother. Screaming, everyone feels sorrowful.

Xiao Fengwu changed his cell and was locked up with a beggar who stole money. He kept getting a bad smell into his nose and his face turned green. Xiao Fengming asked him from a distance, “Hey, are you mynah okay?”

Xiao Fengwu said angrily: “I can’t die.”

If it weren’t for Jiang Pingan’s mercy, he would have to go up and get thirty lashes, and he would have the heart to choke Xiao Fengchuan to death.

Jiang Ping’an passed by the prison door: “Dr. Xiao, you will bear with me for two days, and you will be replaced when the hole is filled.”

After the hole was filled, it was three days later.

In the early morning, when the day lighted up, an unknown government officer opened the prison door: “Xiao Fengwu, come out.”

I thought it was a house change, but after Xiao Fengwu came out, the government officer walked to another cell and brought out the second brother Xiao Liu. Now all the fools found something was wrong, and Xiao Fengming’s legs became weak. Putong knelt to the ground, unwilling to go out, was dragged out.

“It’s over…” Xiao Fengming’s face paled, “Aren’t we going to go to the vegetable market and behead our heads?”

Everyone was silent when they heard the words, their faces were gray, and they walked out feebly by the yaman, Xiao Feng grinned, crying like a dead father, Xiao Fengwuyuan wanted him to stop crying, but his throat seemed to be blocked. In general, I can’t speak half a word.

The second brother Xiao walked well ahead, suddenly stopped, turned around and slapped Xiao Fengming slapped: “What is it like to cry and cry? Isn’t it just a stab, what a man’s husband? Let me see you cry, without them doing it, I will strangle you now!”

He had a loyal and honest face, but he was a little frightening when he was angry. Xiao Fengming immediately did not dare to speak out, hiding behind a few younger brothers, wiping tears with his sleeves.

“Come one by one, don’t grab it.”

Yacha took the key and unlocked the shackles on their hands one by one. He thought they were going to be tied and sent to the execution ground, but who knew that Yacha returned all their previous clothes: “Change the prison uniforms, you can go. Up.”

Xiao Fengwu’s pupils shrank and raised his head subconsciously. The brothers beside him reacted in the same way. They were so shocked that they couldn’t believe their ears. They asked in a daze, “What?! We can go now?!”

Yacha smiled and almost said: “Of course it is true. I heard that the emperor personally made the decree, and he also gave you a plaque “Huanhu Jishi” to your Xiao family. The second master of your family, but saved the empress. Fate…”

Xiao Fengwu’s mind was blank when he heard that, and he didn’t even know how to change his clothes and get out of the jail. There was a man waiting for him on horseback. Xiao Fengwu squinted slightly and just wanted to see who it was. When he looked up, he was stabbed by the sun. .

The man sighed when he saw it, rolled over and got off his horse, his temples were graying, which was not Xiao Linru?

Xiao Fengwu squinted his eyes: “Second Uncle.”

Xiao Linru grew older for an instant, and shook his head slightly: “I harmed you… If you hadn’t asked someone to bring in the prescription, I wouldn’t take the risk and take a child by caesarean section for the empress, so that I could save my life… now I have resigned and returned to old age.”

Xiao Fengwu raised his eyes slightly when he heard the words, a little startled, “I… the recipe I asked someone to bring in?”

“This matter is very involved, and there is a life worry at every turn. No one wants to go to this muddy water. Thanks to your best friend, he knelt in front of the General’s Mansion for a day and night before he asked General Huaihua to think of a prescription. Go to the palace, or my Xiao family will die.”

When Xiao Linru’s voice fell, his hands were empty. Xiao Fengwu grabbed his riding whip and turned on his horse. There was a crisp sound from the whip, the dust was flying, and he disappeared in a moment.

Qin Mingyue…

Qin Mingyue…

There was a fierce wind in his ears, and the surrounding scenery retreated quickly, but Xiao Fengwu felt that a heart was about to jump out. He had never felt this way in his life. The sound of horses’ hoofs was rushing. When passing by Shengde Building, the inside had changed a new place. The celebrity actress who is holding her has a tactful tone, but not as soulful as before.

Xiao Fengwu tilted his head, took a quick glance, and then withdrew his gaze again. He only heard the sound of the play getting away, and he could vaguely identify the song “Wen Zhaoguan”.

“A bright moon shines in front of the window, and the sad heart is pierced.

I really hope that Wu will return with the help of soldiers, but who knows that there will be obstacles.

Fortunately, it is convenient for Na Donggao to go public, he hides me in the back garden…”

The rush of horseshoes finally stopped in front of a small courtyard. The Xifu Begonia blossomed beautifully, with its branches stretched out and full of vitality. Xiao Fengwu got off his horse and was about to push the door. Unexpectedly, he just happened to meet Uncle Zhong coming out, and the two looked at each other. Before Xiao Fengwu spoke, Uncle Zhong was pleasantly surprised: “Doctor Xiao, you are finally back, I really thought you were dead.”

Xiao Fengwu gasped for a breath and whispered, “I’m dead, but I’m alive again… Where’s the bright moon?”

Uncle Zhong said: “Don’t you know, the husband packed up and left, I heard that he is going to Tongcheng.”

When Xiao Fengwu heard the words, his pupils shrank slightly, and his fingertips clenched the door frame: “How long has he been walking?”

Uncle Zhong thought for a while: “Walking to the east, after crossing the mountain, go to the ferry by boat.”

Xiao Fengwu came in a hurry, and when he went there was also a hurry. He immediately turned on his horse and disappeared like a gust of wind. He used to travel with the caravan in his family when he was a little boy. He knew that there was a short path, and he hurried his horse. When he reached the mountainside, he saw one from a distance The carriage speeded up to catch up and ran across the middle of the road.

The driver who drove the car thought he had encountered a mountain bandit, so he was frightened, took a small bench from his hand, got out of the car and blocked it in front of him: “Gan! Where’s the ringing horse! You dare to eat your grandpa’s bench!”

Xiao Fengwu was staring at the curtain. He dismounted and was about to step forward. The coachman raised the bench and rushed over. Who knew that Xiao Fengwu kicked it away with a cold face: “Go! I got in the way and stuck your tongue. !”

The coachman rolled around on the ground and fell to the ground pretending to be dead.

Xiao Fengwu’s gaze returned to the back of the hidden blue curtain, moving his lips, and finally uttered two words: “Mingyue…”

He squeezed the shaft tightly and asked softly: “Why are you leaving?”

The people in the car did not make a sound, a gust of wind passed, the corner of the curtain rose and fell slightly, and there was still silence.

Xiao Fengwu couldn’t hear the answer, his straight back bends, he lowered his head, and slowly closed his eyes. He looked a little embarrassed and a little pitiful. His low voice was mixed with the sound of the wind moving treetops, making it hard to tell what he was. mood.

“I, Xiao Fengwu, have been stubborn since I was a child. I haven’t grown up at such a young age. Others accused me of disgusting me. All should be. In the boundary of Yancheng, I asked ten people, and ten people would say that I am Bastard, but you say, why…why…”

Xiao Fengwu grasped the shaft of the car’s hand joints and turned blue, his throat seemed to be stuck, and he paused for a long time before he said the whole sentence, like asking someone else, more like asking himself: “Why would anyone… Such a bastard, will you die?”

“I have been in prison for six days, but as long as six years have passed. I reflect on the past. There are more than a hundred mistakes. The most regretful in my life was two years ago…”

“You know, I drove away a man two years ago. I used to hold him very high, but he didn’t pay attention to him when he fell. He was hungry and cold in the winter, and I was not by my side. Clamp your finger, I am not here, he eats leftovers, and I am not here… When he was the hardest, I was not there…”

“Later, he became famous and I appeared again. He was the best actress in Yancheng. Once he came on stage, I don’t know how many people were willing to spend a lot of money for him, but he was still willing to follow me and follow me, a penniless bastard.”

“I was in prison. He ran all the way to the capital. The Foreign Minister of the General Mansion knelt all night and saved me the Xiao Manchu from fire and water… He knelt all night, but I was still not by his side. Xiao Fengwu is 20 and five this year. But in the past twenty-five years, they have all lived into the belly of the dog—”

Xiao Fengwu lowered his head and his eyes were flushed. A tearful tear fell from his face before hitting the back of his hand. The veins on his forehead burst, and he slammed his fist against the shaft of the car. The raised nails were dull and dull. The scarlet flowing out.

He trembled: “Now that I am out, he is leaving. Do you think he hates me so much that he doesn’t even want to see me?”

“Xiao Fengwu died in jail and lived again. The living Xiao Fengwu wanted to earn another prosperous wealth for that person. He held him high and high. He would not let him fall in this life, but he wanted to leave. It’s…”

“I still have a lot of things to say to him, and a lot of things that I haven’t told him. I never regarded him as a plaything, nor did I think he was lowly…”

The back of Xiao Fengwu’s hand was blood flowing, but as if he could not feel the pain, he tightened the curtain of the car, leaving mottled blood on the navy blue cloth, and whispered, “Bright moon, don’t go.”

“If you leave, Xiao Fengwu will really die…”

The dark blue curtain slowly opened, revealing a section of cyan skirt, but did not see the expected face, only a thin and thin girl shrank in the corner crying, Xiao Fengwu’s pupils shrank when he saw it. It freezes, just feels a blow to the head, the brain is blank, and the whole person is dumbfounded.

He realized that he had recognized the wrong person, and he was going to chase him on horseback in a hurry. Whoever wanted to turn around and found a figure riding a hat on the mountain road behind the carriage. The man was holding the rein, and his tail was cut off. He raised his head slightly, revealing a thin chin under the shadow.

Xiao Fengwu’s figure stopped, staring at him intently.

The horse was walking back and forth uncomfortably. The man held the reins, looked at Xiao Fengwu for a moment, then turned over and got off the horse. The moment he landed, his pace was faintly clumsy, and he looked a little limping.

“Mingyue…?”

Xiao Fengwu had difficulty breathing. He approached him step by step. He slowly stretched out his hand, cautiously, as if facing the most precious treasure in the world, the hat was slowly lifted, revealing a thin and pale face, only a pair of phoenix eyes, still looking forward to affection. It’s amazing.

Xiao Fengwu clasped his hands a little bit, and suddenly hugged the person in his arms. The force was so suffocating. Qin Mingyue tilted her head slightly, with a playful smile in her eyes: “Master Sixteen, your eyes are not good. , It’s time to get a cure.”

The most expensive thing in the world is to recover from loss.

Xiao Fengwu hugged him tightly: “I have eyes but no beads, it should be cured.”

The wind moved the forest tips and quietly flowed in the air. After a long time, Qin Mingyue pushed him: “Go back.”

Xiao Fengwu didn’t want to let go, Qin Mingyue pushed him again, and finally ran out of patience: “You haven’t bathed in a few days, and your body smells bad!”
