Chapter 56 (Bold Idea...)
After the first whip, Gu Chaochao realized that he was going to spoil the dish, so he resolutely whipped the second whip to remedy it. However, although the second whip used 50% of the force, it was only red, and it still didn't have the effect she wanted.
The air was silent for a moment.
The servant who handed the whip was stunned for a while and then rushed forward: "Your Highness, but something is wrong with the whip?"
"...Ben Gong has not recovered yet, so I just don't have the strength." Gu Chaochao expressed his respect for himself, but he was actually embarrassed. The ground is about to be drilled.
Hearing the words, the servant quickly said attentively, "Why don't a servant do it for you?"
Gu Chaochao paused, glanced at his fat body and sneered, "You deserve it too?
"
Gu Chaochao raised Shen Mushen's jaw with the whip, forcing him to look at himself. When he saw the undisguised hatred in his eyes, Gu Chaochao raised the corners of his lips: "You're lucky.
" left back.
Gu Chaochao didn't walk in a hurry, but Shen Mushen saw the meaning of fleeing, he frowned, and was taken away without thinking much.
Gu Chaochao walked forward with a sullen face, and stopped abruptly until he walked around the corner. He was about to take a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and the maid who was following him came to care: "Your Highness is not feeling well?"
Gu Chaochao: "... "It's really inconvenient to take people everywhere, and I don't have any time for myself.
She was speechless for a moment, and just as she shook her head slightly to say no, she heard a mournful cry. Gu Chaochao frowned and instinctively felt uncomfortable: "Go and see what's going on?" The
maid hurriedly went to the place where the voice came, and turned back after a while: "Reporting to Your Highness, it's the old maid who is teaching Shen Rou the rules. "
Shen Rou? Gu Chaochao was stunned for a moment, then remembered that it was the unlucky little sister of the male protagonist.
The Shen family's heirs are thin, and for so many years, the male lead and Shen Rou have two children, and the two brothers and sisters have always been close. Shen Rou was already frail and sickly. After joining the Jiaofang Division with the male protagonist, she was beaten to death by the prostitute before she could pick up the customer. After the male protagonist heard the news of her sister's death, she finally turned completely black.
It can be said that Shen Rou's death is the last straw that broke the camel's back, a necessary condition for the male protagonist to be blackened, so this plot must not be moved.
Gu Chaochao listened to the continuous crying and the increasingly clear scolding, and walked out with a blank face, thinking silently as he walked, that it was the eldest princess who sent people to the Jiaofang Division, and everything had nothing to do with him, let alone her. She is a cannon fodder who promotes the plot. It is her destiny to die for the plot, not to mention that just like the lines she recited to Shen Mu before, Shen Rou is inherently deficient. on the way.
In short, the reason is very good, Shen Rou died in the Jiaofang Division, it is called death well. Gu Chaochao thought about it and walked out of the gate of Jiaofangsi.
A quarter of an hour later, she came back cursing again, and when she rushed into the side room, she saw the old lady raise the stick in her hand.
"Stop!" Gu Chaochao called with a black face.
The old lady was startled when she saw her, and hurriedly knelt down to salute, "Your Highness, why are you here?"
Gu Chaochao looked angrily at the little girl who shrank into a ball on the ground. .
Gu Chaochao: "..." The old lady was about to beat you to death, and I didn't see you being so afraid of it.
She was speechless for a moment, and then she thought that this girl's current situation was caused by her... her predecessor, so people were afraid that she was normal. Gu Chaochao coughed, raised his eyes and looked at the old maid: "Is this how the Jiaofang Secretary teaches people?"
"...If you go back to His Highness, the slaves really can't do anything. Miss Shen is disobedient, and the slaves just ask her to play a song. Son, she is unwilling to play even in death, so the slaves have to give her some color to see." After the old lady finished speaking, she glared at Shen Rou secretly, and Shen Rou immediately shrank back.
Gu Chaochao twitched the corner of his mouth and turned to look at Shen Rou: "Why don't you play?"
The old bustard immediately followed him openly.
"...No playing." Shen Rou looked at the two terrifying women and said tremblingly.
Gu Chaochao calmly said, "If you don't play, you will pull out ten of your fingernails.
"
I was so scared that she was still so tough, not bad for being the male lead's sister. Gu Chaochao began to look at the little girl again.
The old bustard must have been taught a lesson for a while. The little girl's wrists, neck, and all the exposed places are red and swollen. It's not difficult to imagine what her clothes cover. What a pity, she was originally raised by gold and jade, and the Shen family was reluctant to touch her with a single finger, but now she was beaten like this here.
Gu Chaochao sighed inwardly, and looked at the prostitute expressionlessly: "This woman, this woman, this palace wants."
"...Ah?" The prostitute didn't respond.
Shen Rou's eyes suddenly turned red: "No, no..."
Gu Chaochao ignored her protest and smiled at the old maid: "Do you have an opinion?
" Complain." The old lady hurriedly pushed the person in front of her.
Shen Rou was so frightened that she wanted to retreat, but was grabbed by Gu Chaochao's maid. Gu Chaochao saw that she was sweating from the pain, but he couldn't help but frown and look at the maid: "Take it easy, she has injuries." The maid was
stunned, and the hand that grabbed Shen Rou suddenly became much lighter.
Only then did Gu Chaochao go out in a good mood. He just thought of something when he walked to the door, and turned back to look at the old maid: "No one is allowed to say that this palace took Shen Rou, if you dare to reveal the slightest rumor..."
She narrowed her eyes . The threat of the eyes and the fundus is self-evident.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, no one will know about this, they will only think that Shen Rou is dead." The old lady hurriedly said.
Gu Chaochao raised his eyebrows: "Who said she died?"
The old lady was stunned, not quite understanding what she meant.
"Just as long as she is still in the Jiaofang Division." Gu Chaochao pointed.
The prostitute is a smart person, although he didn't know why Gu Chaochao did this, he hurriedly agreed.
After Gu Chaochao made the arrangements, he glanced at the servant behind him. The servant immediately called a carriage to come in, tied Shen Rou in directly, and quietly brought out the Jiaofang Secretary.
Gu Chaochao sat in the other carriage, and after calming down, he suddenly regretted something—she got Shen Rou out, how could Shen Mushen become black?
"His Royal Highness, how should Miss Shen be arranged?" The maid had already seen from just now that Gu Chaochao treated Shen Rou differently than before. She was a little uncertain about the master's intentions. She was afraid of making arrangements that the master didn't like, so she could only ask her bravely. .
Gu Chaochao looked at her speechlessly: "Send it back."
"Yes... eh?" The maid was shocked.
Gu Chaochao smiled bitterly: "Just kidding." The
maid: "..." It's terrible.
Gu Chaochao sighed: "Find a house for her to take care of, and then find more people to guard her, and no one is allowed to disclose the news of her stay with me, or they will be killed."
Anyway, in the original text, Shen Rou didn't meet the hero until she died , she waited until the time was right to fake a death.
"Yes." Although the maid bowed her head in agreement, she couldn't understand her thoughts more and more in her heart. She only felt that the eldest princess had been ill and became more moody.
Be careful in the future. The maid thought silently.
Gu Chaochao still didn't know that he was invisibly setting up another prestige. After Shen Rou was properly placed, he went straight back to the princess' residence.
Her cold has not yet healed, and she went out for a while and was worried and worried, and fell ill again as soon as she got home. After two or three days in a row, she had the strength to rethink the plot.
By whipping Shen Mushen that day, she had already seen that she had no talent for being a villain, so it was basically impossible to torture Shen Mushen every day like the eldest princess in the original text. She had to come up with some new torture methods that would not be more ruthless than the original text, and would not delay his blackening.
...well, it sounds like it's going to be difficult.
After thinking about it for a long time, Gu Chaochao had the urge to lie down again. Originally, according to the plot, it was time to bring the male protagonist back to the palace of the eldest princess, but unfortunately, until now, he has not figured out how to deal with him, so he has not gone until now.
Unconsciously, it was getting dark again. When the maid came in to light the lamp, she saw her sitting at the table in a daze.
These days, Gu Chaochao is like this every day. The maid is used to it. After entering the door and lighting the lamp, he begins to pass the dinner. Gu Chaochao looked at the four dishes and one soup that was brought in, and his spirit suddenly came to him.
After eating the luxury version of three meals a day for two days, she really couldn't see this wasteful way, so she stipulated that each meal should not exceed four dishes.
Although there are fewer dishes, the taste is still delicious. It can be said that three meals a day are the biggest motivation for her to stay in this mission. Gu Chaochao sighed, picked up his chopsticks and tasted the sliced shiitake mushrooms, then closed his eyes contentedly.
Seeing this, the maid breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile, "Your Highness, do you want some incense?" Gu Chaochao
looked up at her, "Yes."
"Yes."
The spice was poured in, and within a short while there was a faint scent of sweet-scented osmanthus in the bedroom, Gu Chaochao smelled it, only to feel relaxed and happy.
In the original text, this kind of sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance was the favorite of the eldest princess, and she had to order one every day. When Gu Chaochao first came to this world, he even checked the fragrance to make sure that it was not addictive, and then he could continue to use it with confidence.
Not to mention, it smells really good. Gu Chaochao couldn't help but sniff a few more times.
Seeing this, the maid covered her mouth and smiled: "This incense has been burning for many years, and everything in this room is now tainted."
"It tastes good, and the taint is also good." Gu Chaochao was in a good mood.
The maid nodded slightly, and then thought of something: "By the way, Your Highness, Miss Shen's injuries are now gone, and her spirit has recovered."
"So soon?" Gu Chaochao was surprised.
The maid responded: "The old maid is measured when she strikes. Those wounds look scary, but in fact, the skin is not broken at all, just swollen marks."
Gu Chaochao thought about it too, if Shen Rou hadn't been taken away by her, the maid would be in the future. She was supposed to pick up customers, so how could they leave scars before picking up customers? She pursed her lips, lowered her head and drank a bowl of white fungus soup, and then she said unhurriedly: "I'll send two quilts later, it's getting colder and colder now, don't make people sick."
" Yes." After the maid agreed, she went to prepare.
Gu Chaochao stared at the white smoke in the incense burner. After thinking for a long time, she still felt that escaping like this was not the way to go. She should go to see the male protagonist first, and then continue to escape.
Gu Chaochao nodded thoughtfully, turned his head to look out the door: "Come here, change your clothes."
After half an hour, the carriage of the eldest princess' mansion headed towards the Jiaofang Division.
It was already dark when she went out this time, and Jiaofang Secretary was busy. She went straight in through the back door, and before she walked into the yard, the old bustard hurriedly stepped forward to greet her: "His Royal Highness is here, it's really damn good for the servants to be far away."
"Don't talk nonsense, where's Shen Mushen?" Gu Chaochao asked.
The old man smiled and said, "It's locked in the firewood house."
"The firewood house?" Gu Chaochao stopped in a daze.
The old maid immediately asked for credit: "My servant heard that he dared to be disrespectful to His Highness that day, so he gave him a lesson to save him from offending His Highness in the future."
"You taught... how did you teach it?!" Gu Chaochao widened in shock. Eye.
The old maid wanted to brag, but when she saw her expression, she felt that it was not good. After being dumb for a long time, she said embarrassingly: "Just, I hit twenty whips to close the firewood room..."
"Where is the firewood room?" Gu Chaochao hit him directly. cut her off.
The old bustard hurriedly led the way, and soon led Gu Chaochao to the firewood room.
There were no lights in the firewood room, and the afterglow of the lanterns on the road penetrated in, barely illuminating the figure lying in the corner. Gu Chaochao glanced at the servant next to him, and the servant immediately kicked open the door and walked in first with a lantern.
The firewood room suddenly lit up, and the bloodstains on Shen Mushen's body were also unobstructed at this moment. Unlike Shen Rou, who was going to pick up guests, men were always useless in the Jiaofang Division, and there was no room for the boss to teach others a lesson.
At this moment, Shen Mushen was leaning against the wall, his eyes were closed, his face was pale, and there were shocking wounds everywhere on his body.
Gu Chaochao took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and asked the prostitute, "When did you hit him?"
"After you left that day." The prostitute already realized that something was wrong, and spoke carefully.
Gu Chaochao's eyes darkened: "After I left...Isn't that four days ago? He has been detained by you for four days?!"
"...Yes." The old man didn't dare to lift his head.
Gu Chaochao clenched his fists with both hands: "Looking at him like this, I think you didn't invite a doctor. Where's the meal? Can you eat it?" The
old lady did not dare to speak.
Gu Chaochao gave her a hateful look, turned his head and squatted in front of Shen Mushen: "Shen Mushen? Shen Mushen wakes up..."
Shen Mushen's face turned pale and motionless.
She frowned, and reached out to touch Shen Mushen's forehead, which was really hot.
Gu Chaochao couldn't hold back any longer, and directly asked someone to lift Shen Mushen onto the carriage. The old bustard followed him all the way to the back door sluggishly. After seeing the carriage going away, he couldn't help but sat on the ground limply.
In the carriage, Gu Chaochao looked at Shen Mushen's unconscious face, annoyed and happy for a while. I'm annoyed that I wasn't able to act decisively, and I didn't pick up people earlier. Fortunately, the old lady didn't fail to beat people like this... Does this mean that he was injured like this, and he still didn't get hit by the eldest princess in the original text. That was great?
Gu Chaochao paused, and once again realized that he did not have the talent to be a bad person.
The carriage went all the way back to the Princess Chang's mansion. The mansion doctor, who had already heard the news, was guarding the door. When the servants lifted Shen Mushen from the carriage, they immediately took him to the side hospital.
Gu Chaochao watched them carry people away, and subconsciously wanted to chase after him, but after following a few steps, he suddenly realized that as long as his identity appeared in front of him, he had to play a qualified bad person, but the problem was that she couldn't do anything. He couldn't be ruthless, and if he went, he would only become nondescript like the whip on the back of his hand.
Gu Chaochao pursed his lips and stopped, suddenly realizing that after he brought the person back to the eldest princess' mansion, he couldn't delay any longer, he had to grasp the degree of how to treat him as soon as possible.
She sighed and watched as everyone led him away to the corner. Finally, she touched her nose and turned back to the bedroom.
Unknowingly it was late at night, Gu Chaochao was sitting at the table and thinking seriously, just as he was thinking seriously, the maid suddenly stumbled in, and after seeing her, she forgot her etiquette, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, Young Master Shen is awake, He also kidnapped the doctor!"
Gu Chaochao was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered that there was actually such a plot in the original text. The male protagonist who was seriously injured by the princess was brought back to the palace of the princess. The princess was afraid that he would die easily, so she randomly found a doctor to treat his injuries. Who knew that he woke up in the middle and grabbed the doctor's neck. After the eldest princess heard about it, she led people to surround her directly. In the end, the doctor was killed by the male protagonist.
... tsk, too bloody.
Gu Chaochao let out a long sigh, and followed the maid to the side room. Before reaching the place, he heard a chaotic sound inside. She frowned, walked straight in, and looked at the hapless doctor as soon as she entered.
"His Royal Highness save me!" The old man in his fifties immediately burst into tears.
Gu Chaochao: "..."
She was speechless for a moment, looked up at Shen Mushen with scarlet eyes: "Shen Mushen let go, he is the doctor who healed you."
"Heal?"
Gu Chaochao continued to calm down: "I didn't cause your injury, you don't need to look at me like this."
"Gu Chaochao, what tricks are you trying to play?" famous.
Gu Chaochao frowned: "I told you to let him go, don't you understand what people say?"
"If you want me to let him go, then come here." Shen Mu stared at her.
It was originally a confrontation, but after hearing his words, Gu Chaochao was left speechless: "...do you think I'm a fool?"
"Then only let him die." Shen Mushen was still burning, his forehead tingling The thin sweat, but the strength of the hand did not reduce by half.
Seeing that the unfortunate doctor's life was about to end, Gu Chaochao felt anxious and said without thinking, "If you dare to kill him, I will send someone to teach Shen Rou
a lesson!" Shen Mushen froze suddenly, His face sank sharply: "Gu, Chao, Chao!"
"Let it go!" Gu Chaochao narrowed his eyes, his aura not losing at all.
The two stared at each other for a long time, and finally Shen Mushen let go, the unlucky doctor hurried away, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the person behind him knelt down to the ground as if he had lost his strength, and then heard Gu Chaochao say, "Why are you running here? Don't hurry to heal him."
Doctor: "..." Thank you, I just escaped death.
Tucao returned to Tucao, but Gu Chaochao didn't dare to go against what he said. The doctor could only turn back with a bitter face, and after helping Shen Mushen to the bed with the servant, he continued to heal him.
Everything just now seemed to have exhausted all Shen Mushen's strength. At this moment, he was already a little confused. After being touched, his brows furrowed deeply, and his closed eyes showed disgust: "Don't touch me..."
His voice was extremely Small, but Gu Chaochao could hear clearly, she didn't take it seriously, but after seeing the disgust on his face, she suddenly had a bold idea.
A very, very bold idea.
