Only when Xu Shiqiu's figure gradually disappeared from the street, did the commoners who heard his words earlier start to discuss among themselves.

"With the Xu Family people here, the enemies will definitely not dare to attack us. We will definitely be safe!"

When the bailiffs heard these words, they immediately looked at each other with bitter smiles. It was likely that they would not be able to report today.

Inside the Phoenix Palace, Empress Hu had just changed into the empress's auspicious robe. At this time, Mama Su walked in quickly.

Seeing Mama Su quickly enter, the Empress Hu raised her hand to stop the Mama Hu from tidying her clothes. She looked at the Mama Su and asked: "What's the matter?"

"Esteemed Empress, His Majesty sent word over that he would deal with this matter."

Right after Mama Su finished speaking, she immediately sneered and said: "He knows how to punish? How could he bear to do such a thing? That's his son! " Empress Hu was angry in her heart. When she found out about the news that was sent in from outside the palace, she held her breath.

But before he could even release his anger, he was already blocked by Emperor Ruikang. How could Empress Hu be happy?

"Right now, no one in the capital doesn't know that I, Shu'er, am protecting him. No one doesn't know that he wants to pass on his position to Fifth Brother. Now that such a thing had happened, he actually still wanted to cover up for his son? Does he not know that the reason he is protecting that slut's son is because he is embarrassing the fifth brother? " After Empress Hu said this, she raised her hand to take care of the last mistake in her auspicious uniform. Then, he looked at Mama Su and said: "Since that's the case, then I don't need to worry about anything anymore."

Mama Hu and Mama Su were shocked when they heard Empress Hu's words. They did not expect that their master, who had been enduring for so many years, would actually not be able to endure it at this time.

"Men, spread the word. Your Imperial Consort charged into my palace, demoted to a sixth rank noble, and moved to a side chamber." After saying this, the Empress Hu didn't care about the expressions of the Mama Hu and herself at all. She continued to instruct, "Take my Phoenix Seal and Gold Book with you.

The empress originally had the right to bestow the title of consort, but to reprimand high ranking concubines required His Majesty's consent.

Right now, Empress Hu wanted to let Emperor Ruikang choose between following her heart and humiliating her imperial concubine, or continuing to spoil the mother and son.

Emperor Ruikang knew that he was not in a good mood today. Between his son and his woman, he had chosen his son.

When the news of the imperial concubine charging at the empress and being demoted to a rank six noble character spread through the palace, everyone knew that the empress had taken action.

But even so, Noble Liu was still the Emperor Ruikang's concubine, and she still had a son that was about to go out.

Based on Emperor Ruikang's character, he feels that he owes you and he will compensate you afterwards.

This was also the reason why Ye Jingche dared to attack Dong Shu at this moment in time.

However, he did not expect that his mother's reprimand was only the beginning.

When the Empress Hu heard the news, she immediately took action against Ye Jingche's mother. On the other side, Xu Shiqiu protected Dong Shu and when he returned home, he did not question the few big sized men and directly brought Dong Shu to his room.

When he saw the red and swollen part on Dong Shu's lower back, he immediately shouted out sternly, "We should have skin that person alive today!"

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Shu did not know whether to protect herself or comfort him.

After thinking about it, Dong Shu still looked at Xu Shiqiu and said, "This is forgetting that there's a carriage charging at me from behind, it really doesn't matter, I'll use a hot cloth to cover it tonight." After saying that, Dong Shu saw that Xu Shiqiu still had a face full of killing intent, and immediately continued: "Husband, don't think of ruining your future for a big man. This matter cannot be hidden from us today, so we can punish them in broad daylight. "

Xu Shiqiu knew what Dong Shu said was right, but as a man, she was still a husband.

This was his shame. He would never allow such a thing to happen again!

Dong Shu could feel Xu Shiqiu's anger, but she didn't know what to say to console him.

Just as the two of them were at a loss as to what to say, Ling Xiang's voice came from outside the door, "Master, Madam, Old Madame found out about what happened today. She was about to come over just now, but was persuaded by mother Li."

Just as Ling Xiang finished speaking, she glared at Xu Shiqiu while holding onto her chest.

In Xu Shiqiu's eyes, Dong Shu was acting like a spoiled child. He raised her hand and touched the top of Dong Shu's head, and then said: I'll have someone bring you some hot water to soak in for a bath later. I'll go check on Mother at Main Yard first.

"Mn, you go look for your mother first. After I take a bath, I'll change my clothes and go look for Yuanxi, then I'll go look for my mother in Main Yard."

Previously, Dong Shu did not think that when Xu Shiqiu said this, she wanted to take a bath immediately.

Thinking about the sweat on the big men, Dong Shu felt uncomfortable all over.

After Xu Shiqiu left, Ling Xiang immediately brought people to bring hot water in. Seeing Ling Xiang, Dong Shu suddenly thought of Zhang Ershan and Mama Yan.

"I can call for Huo Xiang and Li Xiang to attend to you. Go back and see your father, tell your mother to stay at home and wait upon your father. If she lacks anything, just go to the warehouse and get them."

When Dong Shu just finished speaking, Ling Xiang, who had her head lowered, looked up happily and said to Dong Shu: "Thank you Madam." Finished speaking, Ling Xiang paused for a moment before continuing, "There is Mother and Little Brother at home. It is better for servant to stay here and serve Madam. Huo Xiang was staring at the kitchen as she prepared food, while Li Xiang was helping Mama Yan wash up and apply the medicine. "

Hearing Ling Xiang's words, then looking at her red eyes, Dong Shu understood the meaning of their family.

"Forget it, now that the Mama Yan has been shocked, and your mother wants to take care of your father, you can stay by my side and wait upon me." After saying these words, Dong Shu thought for a moment before continuing, "However, even though you don't want to return to look after your father, you must still pass on the words that I just said. As for the Mama Yan, remember to tell Lixiang to take care of her a little. "

"Yes, servant will pass on the message later."

Although Ling Xiang's eyes were still red, she was in an extremely good mood.

Today, her father protected her wholeheartedly. Although she was injured and had to recuperate for a period of time, she had won the satisfaction of her master and the envy of the other servants.

As she thought about these things, Ling Xiang also quietly helped Dong Shu wipe her back.

When she saw the swelling on Dong Shu's waist, Ling Xiang immediately exclaimed: "Madam, I'm afraid this place will turn purple tomorrow."

"It's fine, go to Doctor Du and get me some medicine to rub. I'll be staying at home for the next few days, I believe I'll be fine soon."

Dong Shu really didn't feel that this was anything special, thinking back to when she was young, when she was doing housework at her big uncle's home, because she was not proficient in housework, she would often bump into or run into this guy.

There would be no medicine for her to use, and her body would be bruised, so she would have to apply it herself with a warm cloth and wait for it to disperse.

However, she wasn't lacking in healing ointments right now.

After Dong Shu finished bathing and waited for her hair to dry, Ling Xiang also quickly took out the ointment.

After Dong Shu finished cleaning up, it was already an hour later.

Yuanxi had not seen Dong Shu for almost an entire day, so when she had not seen her at first, she could still play with her wet nurse. However, when she saw Dong Shu, she pouted, feeling wronged, and saw that Dong Shu was about to cry.

Dong Shu could not bear to see Yuanxi show such an expression, so she quickly reached out and pulled Yuanxi into her embrace.

"Good girl Yuanxi, Mother will be sending you off today. Mother will be home to accompany you tomorrow, okay?" As she spoke, Dong Shu didn't forget to kiss Yuanxi's forehead.

Yuanxi didn't know whether or not she could understand what Dong Shu was saying. In any case, she was leaning on her mother's embrace with a face full of attachment.

Yuanxi was unwilling to leave Dong Shu's embrace, so she could only carry her all the way to the Main Yard.

When Xu Shiqiu saw Yuanxi in Dong Shu's embrace, he immediately frowned and wanted to speak, but after seeing Yuanxi's expression, he could only sigh.

"Yuanxi has come to Father to carry you. Right now, you are growing bigger and bigger, so it is very hard for Mother to carry you." As Xu Shiqiu said this, he immediately walked to Dong Shu's front with large strides. Before Yuanxi could react, he had already pulled her into his embrace.

Yuanxi was at a loss when she was carried by Xu Shiqiu, but when she realized that she had left her mother, he immediately became unwilling to get up.

Seeing that Yuanxi was about to cry, Dong Shu could only step forward quickly, reached out, and pulled Yuanxi's small hand, coaxing him: "Good girl Yuanxi, let Father carry you, Mother will hold Yuanxi, okay?"

With Dong Shu's consoling, Yuanxi finally stopped crying immediately, not giving her father any face.
