Baoyu was carried back, and the girls went to see him. Xi Feng saw that everyone was crying and wiping their tears, so she said that although she was worried, it was useless for everyone to stay here. However, when the imperial doctor arrived, it would delay the treatment and arranged for the girls to go back first.

Just as the girls left, the imperial physician they had invited arrived. After checking on the treatment, he replied to Grandmother Jia,"The wound looks scary, but it's not too deep, so it's not that serious. This brother is still young, so it'll heal in a few days.”She prescribed the medicine and was about to go.

There was a bruise the size of an apricot on Baoyu's face, and the more serious one was his leg. There was a cut four or five inches long on his skin, like a bruise, revealing a mark. Xiren knelt on the bed and wiped him with cold water. She couldn't bear to look at it and cried while wiping.

Grandmother Jia stood by the bed, her hands trembling as she stroked the scar on Baoyu's leg. She did not dare to confirm it, so she turned her head and pointed at Xi Fengling."Go and find out who hurt Baoyu like this. No matter who it is, we won't let them off easily! If you ask him to come and see me, I will ask him if Baoyu is in his way, or if I am in his way.”

Xifeng quickly wiped her tears and agreed. She said hatefully,"The school is too lawless. The proper master is also injured like this. He needs to be cleaned up. If he continues to be so indulgent, he will rebel against the heavens tomorrow. Old Lady, Madam, I'll send someone to call Lian Er back. We'll report back to Old Lady after we catch the real murderer.”

Grandmother Jia said,"What are you waiting for? You, you go now!" Capture him first and bring him here. I'll interrogate him myself.”

After Xifeng left, Grandmother Jia turned to look at Baoyu with tears in her eyes."What a sin! My precious jade is injured like this…"

When Daiyu and Lin Ming returned to the courtyard, Daiyu was extremely worried. On the way back, she looked back countless times. Even when she entered the house, she didn't eat tea when she sat down. She only cried. When she stood up, she leaned against the door and looked outside.

Lin Ming advised her," Baoyu has Old Lady and Lady to take care of him. Xiren and Sheyue are taking care of him. The imperial physician hasn't left yet. He's waiting in the side hall. There's nothing more appropriate than this. You can rest assured."”

Daiyu sobbed," He has never suffered like this before. His flesh and blood are badly mutilated. No matter who sees it, they won't be at ease. I, I can't be at ease."”

Lin Ming sighed and didn't want to persuade her anymore. She wasn't worried about Baoyu. At that time, Baoyu's room was filled with crying and worry. She couldn't shed a single tear, but felt a little irritated. Now, seeing Daiyu's state, she actually felt a trace of desolation and sorrow in her heart.

Although they were also aristocratic families and noble families, Lin Ming and the young ladies of the Jia and Lin families were somewhat different in their roots. He was born in a martial arts family and had served on the battlefield for generations. When Lin Ming was young, his father and brother were mostly on the battlefield. If he came back to meet them, he would definitely be injured and the higher-ups would have promised him to come back to recuperate.

In Lin Ming's childhood memories, the intimacy he had with his father was mostly when he sat in his father's arms, helped him remove the bandages, and fed medicine to the wound. He had seen many wounds and sword marks. This was one.

The other one had gone to the pass for a few months to provide disaster relief. There were countless dead people, large patches of corpses, dead and alive. How could he miss out on all the tragic scenes? In the eyes of Lin Ming, Baoyu's current appearance was not even worth a scratch.

Qingwen was shocked when she saw Lin Ming's wandering eyes. Did this person also contract Baoyu's strange disease? He turned around and brought her a cup of tea.

"What's wrong?" Lin Ming came back to his senses and saw Qingwen's worried expression. He took the tea and shook his head, smiling."I actually entered the miasma. Forget it. Baoyu had never experienced this before. He had never seen it before, let alone experienced it. This time, he was injured. The injury was secondary. He was probably more frightened. I remember that there was still half a bottle of calming pills in the luggage I brought back. That one is the most calming. Find it and send it to him together. Also, tell Xiren that this medicine must be taken with hot water and only one pill at a time.”

"But what's in a crooked wooden bottle?" asked Qingwen. The one with spots of rusty red on the top and only a few grains left?”

"That's it." Lin Ming smiled. That medicine is very effective. A few pills are enough. Baoyu might not be able to use it up. Hurry up and send it to him.”

Qing Xing took out the medicine and handed it to Qingwen. Qingwen took the medicine and left. Lin Ming advised Daiyu," You should be at ease. Baoyu's injury doesn't seem to be a problem. The imperial doctor also said that he would be fine in a few days. He must have fainted because he was frightened." The medicine is very effective. After he takes the medicine, there will be no more obstructions. I guarantee that he will be alive and kicking in a while. He might not be able to recover. If he wants to come to our courtyard, he will be faster than Qingwen.”

Daiyu was amused until her tears turned into laughter. She said,"Nonsense! That medicine of yours isn't an immortal prescription. How can it be so fast? I pity him. He was fine, but why did he suffer such a disaster? His face is bruised and his legs are swollen…"

On the other side, Qingwen went to deliver the medicine. On the way back, she happened to meet Ping 'er. She saw Ping' er lecturing the servant girl by the side of the road. It was strange, so she walked over and asked her.

Ping 'er dismissed the servant girl and pulled Qingwen, saying,""If something really happened, how would I have the time to stay in the courtyard? Baoyu was injured. The old lady was furious and told the second grandmother to deal with it strictly. The second grandmother only treated it as a big matter and did not dare to delay for a moment. The second master could not wait to come back, so he rushed to school in a hurry. In the end, he saw that all the men in the room, including the master who was lecturing, were all bruised and swollen. Not a single one of them was intact.”

Qingwen burst out laughing, but she managed to hold it in and asked curiously,""Then wouldn't it be a mess? There's actually such a thing? What exactly happened?”

Ping 'er said," It's not funny. When Second Grandmother arrived, she didn't even say that she wanted to investigate. The brothers from the south and the north had already snatched it under their feet. Speaking of which, they were all top-notch men. They cried like their parents died. Second Grandmother had originally come to investigate Baoyu's injury, and she did not intend to delay with this group of unseemly people. She called Master Bao to ask, but in the end, it was Master Bao who spoke of the reason.”

"Second Master Bao?" Qing Wen asked curiously. With Second Master Bao's personality, he could even fight? Could it be that there's a mistake?"

Ping Er shook her head and said,"I thought I was mistaken." It turned out that during school today, an unknown relative who lived in Dongcheng Gen 'er spread the news that the emperor was going to issue a decree to recruit talents. It was not important to give the order, and Zaoer had also let go of the opportunity. However, this time was different. According to the emperor, the border was dangerous and the country was in turmoil. The aristocratic families should set an example for the country. They said that they wanted good sons from each family to be recruited into the army and take up the position of general first. The damned plague man was so convincing that everyone believed him and came to congratulate Baoyu. Before Baoyu could say anything, a boy with a rotten tongue beside Baoyu said that Baoyu would definitely not go to a general. He had to choose a replacement in the school.”

"That's what he said," said Pinger."The men were jealous and surrounded Baoyu, wanting to ask for a job." Baoyu was gentle again. He refused and responded incoherently. Those who had no eyes thought that they had won. Later, they fought and took over the school. Baoyu and his teacher went to gather the gang. Everyone was affected. The table broke its leg and rolled twice on the ground. Fortunately, the boys reacted quickly and dragged it out. Otherwise, who knew what would happen?”

"Amitabha," Qingwen said,"the school has been messed up."”

"Isn't that so?" Ping 'er said. Second Grandmother was furious. She only said that they were providing for the school. The original intention was to let the relatives come and also save the expenses of the family to hire a teacher. She did not want to mix these unbearable things. For the position of a general, like a fly seeing rotten meat, she did not even care about her identity and dignity, but dared to hurt her proper master.”Ping 'er scoffed and said," You're still talking about a general? Why don't you take a look at yourself in the mirror and weigh your own weight? Ptui!"”

"They're messing around, but you're so angry." Qingwen smiled. I came from Baoyu's place just now. It seems that the old lady will have to ask about it when she goes there later. You should just go back in case Second Grandmother looks for you again.”

Ping 'er said," The men in the school are all involved. How can they really hurt the dignity of their relatives? They'll just exempt the money for tea and snacks first. They'll only let those who fill in the numbers not come without the sweetness." I had nothing to do over there, so I came out for a walk. You went to Baoyu's place to deliver medicine? Then you should go back quickly and tell the girls not to worry too much.”

Qingwen agreed and returned to the courtyard. She first met Daiyu, who had already walked out of the door. She first told her about Baoyu's situation and told Daiyu to be at ease. When the two of them returned to the house together, her master, Lin Ming, was already writing a book on the desk.

Daiyu sat down and said anxiously,"Why are you looking at Lin Er? Tell me about Baoyu. Is he feeling better?"”

Qingwen had no choice but to ask Daiyu to hold her back before she could take a sip of water. She first told her about Baoyu's situation and said,"I've applied medicine to my injuries and they're already healed. Even though I was shocked, I still trembled like a nightmare when I fell asleep. Xiren helped him take one of the pills we sent over and saw that he was a little more stable.”He also told them what he had said when he met Ping Er on the road. He said that she was just fooling around and had already been dealt with. He told them not to worry.

Daiyu only cared about Baoyu's injury. She didn't hear anything about him. Qingwen said," He's just a useless general. He's not a high official of the Prime Minister's Cabinet. He can only snatch like this and even injure someone. These relatives are too disgraceful."”

If it was a servant girl in the courtyard, Qingwen would have scolded her with the words " slut " and " shallow eyelids ". Fortunately, she restrained herself this time and only used the word " disgraceful ". Lin Ming smiled and said," A general is a fifth-grade officer, a member of the Imperial Guards. If he comes from a well-known family, he usually comes from the Sixth Commanding Office or the Left and Right Commanding Office. He has the most promising future and doesn't need to risk his life. Not to mention this season, he's in high demand at any time. Now that he's within reach, it's no wonder that they're fighting to get him."”

Lin Ming spoke enthusiastically, but seeing that Daiyu didn't answer and Qingwen didn't seem to understand, it was like a small flame hitting a big iceberg. He first pressed the line in his throat back, and then hastily ended the topic with " I'll snatch it even if I break my head."

"It's actually a fifth-grade?" Cherry asked in surprise.! How much was the monthly salary? No wonder they wanted to snatch it.”

Lin Ming's voice died out. He suddenly missed Mr. Zhao. No one had his views on politics anymore. Lin Ming's mood changed. He smiled and said," Officials don't get paid like you do every month. I'll just say this and you'll understand. Right now, Master Xiao Rong of the Ningguo Mansion is temporarily a Rank-7." They just didn't know if the news was true. If it was really the position of Lang Jiang, even if they broke their arms and legs, others wouldn't be able to replace Baoyu.”

After settling the matter in school, Xifeng naturally had to go back to Grandmother Jia. However, after saying this, the old lady suddenly became indifferent and did not pursue the matter. Instead, she became deep.

(I'm a genius, I actually transferred the chapter to the draft box without knowing it)

Xifeng called out twice, but Grandmother Jia only nodded and said that she had done well. Xi Feng said goodbye and walked out of the courtyard. She saw the little girl running out. Xi Feng pulled her and asked, but said that the old lady had urgently ordered Second Master to come and could not be delayed. Xi Feng didn't stay any longer and told the servant girl to go back quickly. She then asked if Second Master had returned.

When Xifeng arrived home, Jia Lian was sitting on the couch drinking tea.

Xifeng said anxiously," You still have the time to drink tea. Just now, something happened to Baoyu in school. When I went to do it, I felt that something was wrong. Usually, no matter how bold they were, they wouldn't dare to touch a hair on Baoyu's head. But today, they made such a fuss. Let me ask you, is it true that the Emperor wants to select a general from the aristocratic families?”

Jia Lian lifted his teacup and lifted his leg to lift Xi Feng's leg. He smiled and said,"You know about it too?"

Xi Feng hissed and sat beside Jia Lian, pushing him away."We're talking about serious matters. Is it true?”

Jia Lian said,"Hey, what are you anxious about? It's still uncertain whether it's true or not." There were rumors outside, and I had been investigating for two days. When I asked, it turned out that it was from the residence of the loyal prince. It was not true whether it was credible or not. It was fine if there was, but it was not urgent.”

Xi Feng's eyes flickered, and the corners of her mouth tilted. She leaned close to Jia Lian, her fair finger pointing at his arm." I knew it. There's a lead for this kind of thing. Why didn't you discuss it with me?" Even if the sky is going to drop a pie, we have to prepare a dustpan to catch it. Such a good thing is not impossible, and we shouldn't just wait for it.”

Jia Lian grabbed Xi Feng's hand and squeezed it softly. He smiled and said,""It's rare that I think the same as Grandma. A few days ago, his son went to visit his father-in-law and said that the higher-ups had such intentions. However, they wanted to fill in the vacancy of a few generals who had just died at the front line. After taking the position of Lang Jiang, they still had to go to the front line.”

"Aiya, I'm going to die!" Xifeng wanted to stop, but Jia Lian held on tighter. Xifeng couldn't get out no matter how hard she struggled, so she had to let him go. Jia Lian glanced over and saw that the servant girl had already pushed him out of the door. He said,"It's decided. If it's a good thing, it won't escape us. If it's not good, it won't escape either.”He asked Ping Er again.

Xi Feng withdrew her hand and smiled." My lord, Miss Ping is in the courtyard. Why don't I go and get her for you?"”
