The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 44
She wanted to say something, but suddenly her eyes flashed, and she wanted to push Chu Zhengyang away, but the latter saw a knife cut from her back in her cold pupils.

"Father!" Chu Qing, who was subconsciously held tightly in Chu Zhengyang's arms, saw the cold knife slashing her father's back with her own eyes, causing her pupils to shrink slightly, and she yelled out loudly.

"Master! Miss!" Ming Liu screamed, and was about to rush towards the sneak attacker.

"Ming Liu!" Chu Qing, who was firmly protected by Chu Zhengyang, could not move and could only stop Ming Liu's reckless behavior.

But at this moment, where did Mingliu care so much?It's just that she, who only wanted to protect the Lord, had already put death and life aside, seeing that the man's knife was only an inch away from Ming Liu's small face, and the accident happened again...

The man who rushed into the carriage in the scuffle was suddenly grabbed by his ankle and pulled out vigorously, accidentally saving Ming Liu's life.It also made Chu Qing see Fusu riding on that man with a bloody face, holding a stone with both hands and smashing the man's face. This bloody scene made Chu Qing stunned. The scene of her dying overlapped, leaving a blank space in her mind.It wasn't until Chu Zhengyang groaned in pain and Ming Liu desperately called out that they brought her back from her memories.

"Father, how are you?" The smell of blood filled the carriage, and Chu Qing, who had come to his senses, rushed to give first aid to Chu Zhengyang together with Ming Liu.

They have no medicine and can only stop the bleeding first.

The melee finally ended with the victory of the Zhenwei Escort. The group of posing as bandits fled without fighting after seeing the blood everywhere.This also made Escort Li grit his teeth fiercely, making him even more sure that they were not real bandits.

Because of Chu Zhengyang's injury, the slightly damaged convoy accelerated forward.During the journey, when Chu Qing was worried about Chu Zhengyang's injury, he looked thoughtfully at Fusu who was driving silently.She didn't know what happened to this young man, but she knew that he had a deep-rooted hatred, and giving him a chance to take revenge was the only condition for the young man to establish the master-servant relationship between the two.

At first, Chu Qing didn't take it seriously, but it didn't bother her anyway.However, when she saw him biting the enemy like a stimulated little beast just now, she suddenly felt that the hatred carried by this young man was probably unusual.

In the end, the convoy returned to Anning City safely. In the Chu Mansion, when Li saw her husband covered in blood, she did not act as Chu Qing thought, but calmly ordered the housekeeper to find a doctor, and then personally Changing the bloody clothes for her husband, and even smiling with a pale face, comforting Chu Qing, letting her go back to rest, just like the mistress of the house.

This gave Chu Qing a deeper understanding of this mother, but it also made her more confused.

The Chu family...the Li family...seems to be hiding some secret?
The agreement between the Chu family's business name and the Hu family's order has already been deliberately publicized by the Hu family, making it known throughout the city of Anning.Originally, the Hu family wanted to vomit the Chu family's business name in one fell swoop, but after receiving the news, the Hu family became clouded.

When Zhao Shenggao heard the news that the Chu family had handed over the new tea as promised, he heard the news of the new tea delivered by the Chu family. He paused for a moment with his slender fingers holding the go chess black pieces, smiled, and said meaningfully: "The game has not yet been played." Finished downloading."

It was night, in the courtyard of Hu's family, the steward who was sent to Yaoxi to collect tea was lying on the bluestone floor tremblingly, and the surrounding candlelight hit him, as if putting him in a circle of light, as if he had been surrounded by countless people. Only one eye is fixed on it.

There was bean-sized sweat on his forehead, and his head was deeply buried, not daring to look up at the person in front of him.The sound of footsteps came to his ears, he opened his eyes nervously, and what caught his eyes was the pair of brocade cloth shoes woven with gold silk embroidered threads.

Small feet, if they are normal, will definitely make him feel excited.However, at this moment, not to mention that he knows that the owner of these feet is beyond his control, even if it is someone else, he is not in the mood.

The owner of those feet walked up to him, looked down at the visibly trembling back, smiled sarcastically, turned and left, leaving only a faint scent lingering around the tip of his nose.

Hu Furong walked up to the livid father, poured him a cup of tea, and cheered him up: "Daddy calm down, we haven't lost yet."

A fierce light flashed in Hu Boyi's eyes, he glared at his daughter, then glared at the person who was kneeling on the ground and did not dare to raise his head, pointing and scolding: "Look at the stupid thing this stupid thing did! It's fine if you can't get the tea, and even send someone to go Jie Dao was beaten back. Now the Chu family has sent people to let us collect tea tomorrow, not only did not suppress the Chu family, but made them a lot of money. I am really angry."

Hu Furong's beautiful eyes brightened, and she smiled so chillingly: "Daddy, I told you, we haven't lost yet."

The accent in these words finally made Hu Boyi put away the anger in his heart, and looked at his daughter in puzzlement.The latter smiled sweetly at him: "The tea will be collected tomorrow, so don't you still have time tonight?"

Hu Boyi's heart moved, and he couldn't help asking: "What's Furong's plan?" He didn't want the Chu family to make a fortune and accumulate wealth to be on an equal footing with him.The plaque bestowed by the emperor had already hurt his eyes, adding more money to the Chu family would just make his flesh hurt and his heart hurt.

Hu Furong smiled coquettishly, and whispered something in Hu Boyi's ear.

The steward who was kneeling on the ground felt the whispering of the father and daughter, raised his head curiously, and secretly looked at the two who were planning under the candlestick.At this moment, Hu Furong's back was facing him, and he could only see Dong Jia who was sitting on a chair with a sudden smile on his face through the slim figure. For some reason, Dong Jia was smiling brightly, but he couldn't help but hit him Shivering, I quickly lowered my head, not daring to look any further.

In the Chu family's house, Chu Qing had already washed away the fatigue from the journey, and was leaning on the bed in her underwear at the moment, thinking with the lights.The book in her hand has been held for an incense stick of time, but she hasn't turned a page, which shows that her mind is not on the book at the moment.

Now, the only maid in her room is Ming Liu. This girl also suffered a lot of frights during the day, and was already ordered by Chu Qing to rest.So at this moment in the pear garden, except for Chu Qing who was still asleep, it seemed that the night was quiet.

Chu Zhengyang's injury is no longer a problem, after all, it is only a flesh injury, not a muscle or bone injury.It's just that he lost too much blood, leaving him in a coma.And Li's took care of her in front of the bed.

Tomorrow is the delivery date with the Hu family, but for some reason, Chu Qing is always a little uneasy.

If the mind is restless, naturally it is impossible to read the book.The sudden irritability caused her to throw the book in her hand aside, wanting to go to the bed to blow some air.

Barefoot, she walked to the window sill, and pushed open the window lattice carved with peony flowers with both hands. She just closed her eyes and took a deep breath, but suddenly realized that the atmosphere behind her was not right.
