Chapter 441: No Long or Short Clothing
Zhongshun stood in the room and looked around...
There wasn't a single sign of anything being turned upside down in the house...it couldn't be a thief!
Zhongshun had no choice but to give up the idea of waking up Lu Jie'en. He turned around and left the house and went to the next door. He pushed open the door and walked in.
As soon as he entered the house, Zhongshun was frightened by the scene in front of him...
The Marquis was not lying on the bed as imagined, but... he was rolling on the ground!
In the dim room, a dark mass was seen rolling back and forth on the ground...
There was a bang when it hit the bed.
Zhongshun used the faint light from the window to find the tinderbox and lit the lamp on the table.
This time I can see clearly -
Leng Xian was seen with his eyes tightly closed, wearing only underwear and underwear, lying on the ground in the middle of the room, stretching his arms and legs, rolling left and right, and then clasping his hands together, begging and worshipping non-stop...
Seeing this familiar scene, Zhongshun felt a little desperate!
Zhongshun thought to himself: It’s over, it’s over!
The Marquis is really possessed by a nightmare again!
How can this be good?
In a moment...will the Marquis be able to wake up soberly and go to court?
Thinking about the head on his neck;
Think about the head on the Marquis's shoulders...
Zhongshun clenched his fists, and was furious.
No matter what, I have to wake up the Marquis.
Otherwise, if the master disobeys the imperial edict, he will lose his head, and as a servant, he will also lose his life!
Zhongshun first squatted down and shouted a few times, pushing a few times, "My Lord... My Lord... please wake up... wake up!"
Looking at Leng Xian again, he didn't even open his eyes!
How to do?
Seeing the teapot on the table, Zhongshun grabbed it.
Zhongshun thought of using the cold water inside to wake the marquis up.
But when I picked it up, I found that the pot was empty.
I had clearly prepared half a pot of water in this pot last night, just in case the Marquis got thirsty at night;
The water is gone!
When did the Marquis drink all this?
There was no time to think about it. Zhongshun simply threw down the teapot, picked up the copper basin on the washbasin rack beside him and ran out.
Soon, Zhongshun brought back a basin of cold water.
First, he poured some cold water onto Leng Xian's face little by little...
Useless.
Zhongshun gritted his teeth and poured half a basin of cold water onto Leng Xian's face.
This seems to be working...
Leng Xian's hands, which had been scratching around, drooped limply to the ground and became motionless.
At the same time, he stopped shouting and calling.
It seems that throwing water works.
Zhongshun tried shouting a few more times and pushing a few more times, but Leng Xian still didn't respond.
Anyway, I have already done the first day, so I am not afraid of doing the fifteenth...
Zhongshun gritted his teeth and poured the remaining half basin of water in the copper basin onto Leng Xian.
Leng Xian was really soaked. He was lying on the ground in the water. Before he even opened his eyes, he sneezed loudly in succession.
This time I'm finally awake.
"My Lord... My Lord... please wake up... wake up..." Zhongshun called out a few more times.
Leng Xian heard Zhongshun's cry, slowly opened his eyes, and turned his gaze over...
He saw loyalty and obedience;
Then he felt the wetness and coolness on his body again.
The hands placed on both sides of the body moved and all they felt was cold water.
I felt again and found that all my clothes were wet.
Leng Xian's eyes moved to the copper basin in Zhong Shun's hand...
My slow-witted brain was still clumsily thinking... Zhongshun actually dared to splash cold water on me!
Leng Xian's eyes were fixed on the copper basin in Zhong Shun's hand.
Zhongshun didn't know whether to put the copper basin down first or hide it first.
Zhongshun panicked and the copper basin fell to the ground with a clang.
Zhongshun knelt down with a plop, "My Lord...My Lord...it's me who deserves to die!
Just now... just now... My Lord Marquis had a nightmare again, and no matter how I called you, you wouldn't wake up!
I…I really have no other choice but to…just…"
Zhongshun didn't dare to say anything more, but even if Leng Xian's mind was not completely clear, he understood what Zhongshun said.
But, soaking in this ice water feels really uncomfortable.
Leng Xian withdrew his gaze and weakly ordered Zhong Shun, "Help me up and help me change my clothes."
"Yes!"
Zhong complied, quickly picking up the copper basin that was blocking his way and putting it back on the hanger;
He came over and helped Leng Xian up from the ground.
Water was still dripping from Leng Xian's body, so Zhongshun could only help Leng Xian sit on the chair next to him.
Then, Zhongshun was in trouble again...
I need to change the clothes for the Lord...
Change clothes...
Where could he find some new clothes for the Marquis?
Zhongshun thought for a moment before he said to Leng Xian, "My Lord, please wait a moment. I will go to Butler Lu next door and find you some clean clothes!"
Leng Xian closed his eyes and said nothing.
Zhongshun turned around and ran out quickly, jogging all the way to the next door.
Lu Jie'en was still sleeping soundly.
Zhongshun didn't care about anything else and directly opened the closet to look for clothes.
What a hell!
Could it be that... there really has been another thief in this marquis's mansion that has been completely robbed?
There was not a single piece of clothing, long or short, in Butler Lu’s box or cabinet!
At this time, Zhongshun hadn't thought too much about it. He didn't expect what Leng Xian would wear when he entered the palace to attend court.
He was only concerned about how to find some dry clothes for the Marquis so that he could change out of his wet clothes.
But...what should I do at this time?
