The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

After being injured, he initially caught a cold. Later, he argued with Vice Governor Lin about some details of the memorial, and the argument didn’t end until late at night.

After leaving the Chief Political Yamen, Sun Shaozong felt his eyelids sink and he walked with a flutter. Finally, two lower-level officials helped him into the carriage. As soon as he leaned against the cushion, he completely lost consciousness.

He didn’t know how long it took for him to get back to the inn.

In a daze, he felt several hands wandering around his body. He subconsciously grasped one of them with his backhand, with a delicate and smooth touch that clearly belonged to a young woman.

How could there be a woman's hand?

And there's more than one!

Didn't he return to the inn from the Chief Political Yamen?

Sun Shaozong reluctantly lifted his eyelids, and in the dim light, he saw several strange and pretty girls sitting around him, stretching their white hands into the quilt and wiping his body with a dry cotton cloth.

The three on the outside were just fine, but the two on the inside were wearing thin spring clothes. With only a thin band around the waist untied, a light pull on it, they could travel naked ”without worry,” in the standard appearance of a maid for bed.

"You... you are..."

Sun Shaozong opened his mouth in disbelief and asked, but his voice was hoarse and deep, and even he felt harsh and tight.

"Are you awake?!"

However, hearing his deep voice, the women were all overjoyed. There was even someone who brought a bowl of ginseng soup and carefully fed it to Sun Shaozong with a spoon as they explained in a coquettish voice, "We are all sent by the Gentry of Jinmen Mansion to serve you to repay your kindness in saving our lives."

Another person beside him added, "I originally gave away a lot of silver, but Lord Xiang refused, leaving only a few of us."

I see…

Although Sun Shaozong might not have worried about the lives of these gentries, even if he didn’t take action, it was inevitable that their wife and daughter would be insulted, which for some people was more terrifying than the grace of saving lives.

Therefore, it was not uncommon to send a woman of wealth and silk as a reward.

Now that he knew the origins of these women, Sun Shaozong took it easy. Anyway, he really needed someone to serve him now. If he didn’t like them, he could just send them back after he recovered.

He motioned to the woman to continue feeding more than half a bowl of ginseng soup, and when his throat became moister and his spirit and energy increased, Sun Shaozong then asked, “What time is it now?'"

"It's nine o'clock in the evening now."

The woman who was feeding ginseng soup was about to answer when someone rushed to her and said, "You came back in the middle of the night and have been sleeping soundly all the time, I have been worried!"

The other girls were also busy nodding, posing as if they were worried.

Nine o’clock?

Didn’t that mean that he slept for a full ten or so hours?

According to the calculation of time, if the Imperial Court were to send someone over immediately after receiving the urgent report, it should probably…

"Erlang? Erlang?!"

Just as he thought of this, he heard a roar from outside, like a thunderbolt from the clear sky. Immediately after that, the door of the room was slammed open, and his Big Brother rushed in with red eyes and a military uniform, his face full of anxiety.

However, when he clearly saw that five or six beautiful women were talking around Sun Shaozong on the bed, he was immediately stunned on the spot.

Sun Shaozong managed to straighten up and said in amazement, "Brother, why are you here?"

"Damn it!"

It was then he heard Sun Shaozu burst out and scolded, “The talking dog didn't speak clearly, and I almost didn't worry to death all the way!"

As he spoke, he casually went up to the bedside and sat down. He looked up and down at Sun Shaozong, admiring him. "I heard that you killed dozens of rebels and killed a third-grade Official in the Jinmen Mansion this time. Good job, you are worthy of being the bloodline of our old Sun family. This skill and courage are absolutely necessary!"

After all, he just didn't say anything serious!

Sun Shaozong had to ask again. His Big Brother then said, "I heard that you were seriously injured. I was going to take a few days off to come over…”

As a result, it happened that someone was going to be sent to escort the North Korean envoy into the Capital, so he was assigned this task.

The two brothers chatted a few more words, and a young girl beside them cautiously reminded them, "Elder Master, the Second Master has been in a coma all day, and now he has just woken up. I'm afraid he may not be able to work too hard at times."

"What?!"

His Big Brother quickly jumped up and roared at the outside, “Where the hell is Doctor Hu? Is he a turtle? Why does he need half a day to get into the yard?"

As soon as the words were finished, a private soldier replied, "General, Doctor Hu is throwing up so much. I will guide him in after he's done vomiting!"

His Big Brother brought a famous doctor from the Capital.

"Brother, in fact, I just suffered some trauma and a little cold. It's no big deal."

Sun Shaozong casually comforted his Big Brother for a few words, and then the conversation turned to inquire about the current situation of the Criminal Division.

Sun Shaozu then chuckled and said, "I heard that the boy surnamed Wei invited Prince Beijing to dissolve his hard situation a few days ago. He simply subdued Commander Qiu and made Qiu Yunfei subdue him in person. He's been working hard these days, trying to completely defeat you."

"But before I left the Capital, I had someone tell Lin Delu about your defeating the rebels and making great contributions. It's human nature to go along with the powerful. Only a fool would choose to oppose you at this time!"

At first, Lin Daiyu said that he was ”bear skin with a fox heart,” but at best he could only be considered a secondary product. His Big Brother was then the real ”bear skin with a fox heart!”

By the way, Prince Beijing was really out of style, wasn’t it?

How could a child’s fight be so big that an elder has to be involved... Well, it seemed that he was not the elder of Wei Ruolan.

However, as a Prince, participating in this level of "fighting" still greatly loses his identity.

In particular, he has always been a non-troublemaker, but this time it suddenly set a precedent. Was it really like what Prince Zhongshun said—there was a disease of internal fear?

Sun Shaozong was thinking wildly here, but his Big Brother suddenly waved his hand and ordered, “You guys, go down first."

After those women were instructed to withdraw, he heard his Big Brother's earnest and heartfelt words, "Erlang, you have been recovering from your injuries in recent days with peace of mind. We don’t need to rush into the things we have discussed."

Things we have discussed?

Sun Shaozong naturally knew what his Big Brother meant, but he hasn't been in a hurry about it at all.

While waiting to be explained, Sun Shaozu said sternly, "We would rather delay, but we must not force it. Otherwise, if we produce a sick child, what should we do?"

"In addition, I also took the opportunity to take some precautions so as not to cause any further trouble if Lady Jia rushed into the matter."

He has become more elaborate!

It seemed that his Big Brother had been thinking much about this matter in his daily life.

But…

"Big Brother."

Sun Shaozong said helplessly, "I think it's better to take a long-term view. Our brothers are all seeing an upward trend, so why risk losing our reputation..."

"Reputation for bullshit!"

Sun Shaozu glared and said angrily, "Who in that wealthy family lacks this kind of sneaky and insidious nonsense? Let’s take Ningguo Mansion as an example, what was the reputation of their brother-in-law and the people in 49 cities?"

"And Prince Zhongshun, who loves to mix men and women into a bed of nonsense, heard that when his interest rises, even the side concubine who has won the solemn decree has to roll with the actors in his royal residence!"

"General Wu of the city defense camp bought a mistress two years ago, not far from the northwest of our house. Guess who he was raising inside? It's his widowed niece and daughter-in-law!"

"The Right Commander of the military department..."

"Dali Temple..."

His Big Brother was so familiar that he spoke of a dozen absurd things that he indignantly said, “These people's future has not been affected yet, let alone something that I volunteered to do?"

The problem was that he didn’t sign up for this…

Sun Shaozong thought this way in his heart, but he didn't dare say it clearly. He only chatted and said, "We don't have to follow that bad study, do we?"

"What?"

Sun Shaozu saw that he was still unwilling to obey and suddenly stood up and said, "Do you want me to kneel and beg for you?"

Great~

It seemed that this matter couldn’t be discussed further.

Even if Zhou Ruqing knelt for a year, Sun Shaozong wouldn't change his mind, but it would be a big difference to change the mind of his Big Brother.

Even if they didn’t consider the upbringing of the ”original master,” just the cost of eating and drinking in a year was all dependent on his Big Brother, who not only took care of everything in every way but also gave him anything he wanted!

A man's heart was made of flesh. At present, Sun Shaozong has regarded him as his own brother thus, how could he bear his kneeling?
