C192 What Is the Madam Feeling Shy About?

Bastard? Xiao Jingyue was so angry that his vision went black, and he almost lost his balance.

It seemed that not only would he die from her, he would also die from her mouth!

Qu Ling looked at his expression, and said awkwardly: It's just a joke, don't mind it.

Xiao Jingyue snorted, he raised his voice slightly, and said to Xiao Er who was still waiting outside: "Wait."

"If you have something to say, then go. I'll be sleeping after I take a shower." Qu Ling was considerate.

Xiao Jingyue walked to the side, sat down again, and said with a calm voice: "Come with me."

Pausing, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out another sentence: "Go meet this general's' illegitimate child '!"

Qu Ling, "..."

The deeper the night was, the faster the water became. Furthermore, with his body not feeling well, Qu Ling would not be able to soak in it for too long.

He crawled out of the tub with a blush on his face, grabbed some clean clothes from the bench and hid behind the screen.

Xiao Jingyue's voice came from outside the screen: "I have seen it all and touched it before, what is the Madam shy about?"

Qu Ling became angry from the embarrassment, "Shut up!"

So General Xiao swallowed his words of "did everything".

By the time they reached the western courtyard, the child was already asleep.

Just as Chen Linye was taking out the silver needles from the child's body, he heard the sound of footsteps.

Looking at Xiao Jingyue who had a face full of unhappiness from wanting more, and then looking at Qu Ling whose blush had not completely faded, he raised his eyebrows.

Qu Ling coughed lightly and asked: "What happened?"

Chen Linye retracted his gaze, took the last silver needle from the child's body, and told the whole thing to Qu Ling.

When Qu Ling heard that Xiao Jingyue had bumped into a strange child on the streets, he was stunned for a moment before turning to look at Xiao Jingyue.

Xiao Jingyue walked to Chen Linye's side, looked at the child who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and asked: "How is it?"

Chen Linye sighed, kept his silver needles and said softly: "There is no cure for tuberculosis, if you want to live, you can only rely on medicine."

Saying this, he looked away, a little unable to bear to do so.

This child had been sick for many years and his foundation had long been ruined. Even if they were willing to use precious herbs to keep him alive, this child might not be able to live for more than a few days.

In that case, he might as well use the Unfathomable Gu.

Xiao Jingyue went silent.

Chen Linye looked at him, and reminded him: "This disease is contagious, go far away."

The three of them walked out of the room. For a moment, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was heavy.

In the end, it was Chen Linye who spoke first, "Your wife's health is not good, hurry up and bring her back to rest. I'm going to take a bath, so I'm going to sleep as well."

Xiao Jingyue nodded, carried Qu Ling and left the western courtyard.

On the way back to the courtyard, Qu Ling couldn't help but turn around and look at the direction of the western courtyard.

He was, after all, a child, and everyone felt pity for him.

When they lay back on the bed, they had no other thoughts.

Qu Ling looked at the pitch black tent ceiling and sighed: "I had always thought that the Gu Worm's venom would harm the body, so I had to cure it."

From the looks of it, Gu is solvable, but there are some Gu that can be dispelled, and there are some Gu that are better kept.

Xiao Jingyue lightly patted the back of her hand and said softly, "Go to sleep."

Qu Ling nodded and closed his eyes.

That night, she had a nightmare.

When he woke up, he was covered in sweat, but he could not remember what happened in his dream.

The person beside him was not here. When he looked back at the time, he was sure that he had already gone to the court.

Qu Ling no longer had any thoughts of continuing to sleep, he stood up and got off the bed.

Aunt Tao who was already outside heard the commotion and asked: "Young miss has woken up?"

Qu Ling replied as she was wearing her clothes, "Come in."

Not long after, Aunt Tao walked in with a basin of warm water to help Qu Ling clean himself.

A moment later, Xiao came in with breakfast and placed it on the table.

After Qu Ling finished washing up, he walked to the side of the table and sat down. Only then did he say: "This morning, several families sent over invitations to our residence. Does Madam want to see them?"

This morning, the General Mansion was in full swing, and all of them were sent by various families to deliver their greetings.

Qu Ling thought of the child in the western courtyard, and his mood turned bad.

If she wasn't afraid of offending people, she really wanted to tell them to scram.

Just like her grandfather had said, she was not the Guanyin Bodhisattva who rescued and saved those who had no obligation to save the common people. How were they related to her?

But thinking about it, these words couldn't be said to those people.

Qu Ling pondered for a moment, then said: "Send a letter to them in my stead, tell them that I am not feeling well, and am not suitable for them to see. If you have any urgent matters, please pass the message to me first. "

Xiao Yi accepted the order and left.

The room was quiet for a while. Just as Qu Ling finished his breakfast, he saw Xiao San at the door. He cupped his hands and said: "Madam, the general has returned.

Qu Ling was startled, and asked: "Who else?"

Xiao San replied: "Someone from the Minister of War."

He really couldn't not see it.

Qu Ling took the hat from Aunt Tao and walked out.

Today, the side hall was rather lively, as the entire family of the Minister of War Mansion had come.

Xiao Jingyue sat on the main seat and was drinking tea and chatting with his guest.

Hearing the sound of footsteps entering, they all turned their heads to look towards the direction of the door.

The moment Qu Ling stepped into the doorway, he received everyone's attention.

Qu Ling looked at Xiao Jingyue and only greeted him after seeing that he had nothing to say.

The Minister's Wife looked at Qu Ling with a smile and said: "You're nagging at me again, I hope that you don't blame me."

"Of course. Ning'er and I are friends. If you can bring her to meet me, I won't be able to be happy in time." Qu Ling said, and winked at Li Ning'er.

It was unknown if it was because she was seeing things, but she felt that Li Ning'er's complexion seemed to be much better than when she met him in Yu Cheng that day.

Logically speaking, Li Chenxuan should have drank his blood to nourish the parasite after the medicine she gave him failed. He shouldn't be so rosy like this.

Li Ning'er replied with a smile, and softly said: "I didn't have the time to tell you that this time, when you left the capital, you seemed to have lost a lot of weight."

After Li Yun finished sizing up Qu Ling, his thoughts changed slightly as he smiled and said to Xiao Jingyue: "General, can I have a word with you?"

Xiao Jingyue nodded lightly, put down the teacup and stood up, then took the lead to walk out the door.

After the two of them left one after the other, the guards went back to looking at the tea leaves. The remaining people in the side room became silent.

Li Ning'er drank his tea and calmly glanced at Li Chenxuan who was seated beside him.

However, ever since Qu Ling came in, Li Chenxuan had been watching his every move, and she could not see anything.

In his mind, he recalled how the two of them had woken up this morning when Minister's Wife had shouted at them to open their eyes and realized that there wasn't a single thing on each other's bodies. His face couldn't help but turn red.

Qu Ling had been secretly observing Li Ning'er, and seeing her blushing for no reason, he was curious in his heart.

But now was not the time to ask, so she held it in and looked away.

In the midst of silence, Minister's Wife could not help but open his mouth, "Mrs. Xiao, don't blame me for asking, will this Soul Borrowing Gu harm its offspring?"

When these words came out, the faces of the three people present, other than Minister's Wife, all reddened.

Qu Ling rubbed his nose, "I wouldn't have done so that day."

Other than the Gu Worm in Xiao Jingyue's body that had been unknown for a long time, she had never heard of any other Gu Worm that could affect a man's heir.

The Soul Borrowing Gu was evolved from the Soul Locking Gu, and if the Soul Locking Gu was used on girls, it would not affect their fertility, much less the improved Soul Borrowing Gu.

Hearing this, Minister's Wife heaved a sigh of relief.

Qu Ling looked at Li Ning'er's rosy red face, and could not help but ask: "Young Master Li, have you been drinking blood recently?"

Li Chenxuan raised his head and said truthfully: "I drank it two days ago."

Qu Ling became even more suspicious, "Then what about yesterday and today?"

Li Chenxuan, "..."
