Chapter 122: Awakening from a Dream

When Qi Jiao woke up in the morning, she was the only one left lying on the bed. She found that she had no clothes on her, and her lower body was full of sticky sensations, and it hurt like tears. She struggled to her feet and looked outside and asked:

"Anyone?"

"Zhang Liangyuan, are you awake?" was the crisp voice of Xiaoyun from last night.

"Well, help me find a dress. And also...... Can you help me prepare water for a bath. ”

"Yes, Liangyuan waits. Xiaoyun replied.

Qi Jiao reluctantly sat up, although she felt that her body was in pain, she was still startled by the bruises all over her body, from her chest to her thighs, it was almost dense, and the skin on the inner thighs could not be touched. I didn't want others to see this appearance, so I finally put on the clothes handed in by Xiaoyun and prepared to get out of bed and bathe.

As soon as she took a step, there was a sharp pain between her legs, and she almost fell. Seeing this, Xiaoyun stepped forward to hug her. It was only a few short steps from the bedroom to the bathing room, but it almost exhausted all of Qi Jiao's strength. Finally, she sat in the bathtub and was about to collapse.

Qi Jiao closed her eyes weakly, and the madness of last night gradually returned to her mind. The beast-like bite was not gentle at all. Parenting grandma once said that as a woman, she must meet the requirements of a man and cannot resist. But this is the result of one's own obedience. He only moved mechanically, without the slightest concern for his own blood. I don't know how many times he asked for himself, Qi Jiao only remembered that she fainted in a sharp pain.

It was only now that she understood the meaning of Concubine Shu's words, what else could she do but endure herself? Qi Jiao smiled bitterly, but she was afraid that she would be trampled under her feet by Saitama, so she made such a decision, and now that she thinks about it, it really looks like a joke. When she returned to the door that day, Saitama's face was full of happiness and couldn't be hidden, Li Yi's eyes were full of spoiling when she looked at her, and her mother's calculation was probably in vain again.

At this time, Xiaoyun's voice sounded outside, "Liangyuan, it's not too early, it's time to go and say hello to the crown princess." Qi Jiao then remembered that she was just a concubine now, and she had to ask the princess for peace every day, but she didn't expect to fall into this step. Qi Jiao slowly moved out of the bathtub, put on her clothes, and simply let Xiaoyun comb her hair. Looking at the bruises on her neck, Qi Jiao had no choice but to cover it thickly with powder. Only then did Xiaoyun accompany him to the courtyard of the crown princess.

Qi Jiao's small courtyard is very remote, some distance from the main courtyard of the crown princess, although her body is in pain, Qi Jiao is afraid that others will see the joke, but she still walks with nothing to do.

Before I entered the hall, I only heard laughter inside. A palace maid had already seen Qi Jiao and went inside to report. The laughter in the hall disappeared all of a sudden, which made Qi Jiao's mood even more nervous, and every step into the hall was very heavy.

The crown princess was high up and looked at her intently. Qi Jiao walked to the throne of the crown princess and bowed. I haven't heard the voice of the crown princess for a long time, and Qi Jiao's body can't support it anymore.

"Excuse me, flat. Qi Jiao slowly stood up.

"Zhang Liangyuan, I won't pursue the matter of you serving the prince last night and being late today, but there must be no next time. ”

"Princess Xie is magnanimous. Then the crown princess asked Qi Jiao to meet Concubine Yang and Concubine Yun, several princesses, and some good ladies who were similar to Qi Jiao.

"Sister Zhang, as expected, the prince loves his sister. Concubine Yang said ill-intentionedly, and after speaking, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, her tone full of mockery. This Concubine Yang has an ordinary appearance, but her background is prominent, and she is the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenhai. The Marquis of Zhenhai has been guarding the coast of Fujian for generations and has considerable power. Since returning to the present dynasty, he has been stationed in Fujian. On the one hand, in order to win him over, the emperor canonized his daughter as the prince's side concubine. On the other hand, they are also afraid of him.

Qi Jiao blushed suddenly, didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and was stunned.

"Why does Sister Yang make fun of a little girl, last time the prince stayed in his sister's room, didn't he favor his sister?"

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it, we sisters should work together to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It's not too early, so let's all step down. ”

When everyone saw that the crown princess had spoken, they didn't dare to say more, and they quit and quit.

"Zhang Liangyuan, you wait. The crown princess stopped Qi Jiao and ordered someone to hand a small porcelain vase to Qi Jiao.

"Go back and get some medicine, it's all right. The crown princess stared at Qi Jiao and said, a sneer on the corner of her mouth. Qi Jiao didn't know why at first, but when she saw the whispering laughter of the people who had not yet dispersed, she suddenly realized, and her face couldn't help but turn red. After thanksgiving, he fled and left.

As soon as she returned to her room, Qi Jiao threw herself on the bed and cried, thinking about how she fell into such a field as a young lady. Xiaoyun looked at Qi Jiao, who was crying bitterly, and quietly closed the door. Outsiders thought that the Prince's Mansion was very good, but when they came, they realized that this was not a place for people to stay at all.

Guogong Mansion. Lian Shi received the news that Li Duan was about to return to the court, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Called Pei's mother to discuss how to give Li Duan the wind.

"It's been a few days since Duan'er came back. Did you send someone to clean the new yard?"

"It has been swept away, and the mattress and tent have been renewed. The old yard?"

"Send someone to watch first, and then talk about it later. Speaking of which, when he comes back, it's time to get the new daughter-in-law back. I have to discuss with the Marquis of Changping, choose a good day, and let them get married as soon as possible. ”

"Madam, don't worry, you have to wait for the prince to come back. ”

"By the way, what's going on in the second room?"

"It's nothing, it's pretty peaceful. Even the second young master is in the mansion in addition to going out to King Fu's mansion every day. I rarely go out at night, like I used to often see no one for a day. I heard that I was very good with the second young grandmother. ”

"This girl has some means, and she will trap people. ”

"Yes, now the people in their small courtyard are also managed and obedient, and no news can be spread. ”

"It seems that this move is a little wrong, I underestimated this girl too much. At that time, I wanted to arrange for a housekeeper mother to go in, but she pushed back. said it nicely, what to repay the nurse's nurturing kindness, and in a blink of an eye, Li Yi's nurse was brought in, which made people unable to say anything. It's hard to make excuses for trying to get in now. ”

"As long as you find her fault, you can still add someone to it. ”

"Hmm. Lian nodded thoughtfully.

At that time, Li Duan went deep into the desert to pursue the leader of Beirong, which was a rather risky move, he did not listen to the advice of Deputy General An, insisted on adventuring, and almost made a big mistake. Fortunately, the leader of Beirong was betrayed by the people around him, and Li Duan was able to capture the leader of Beirong alive and make a great contribution.

Beirong has always been a big trouble for the emperor, and this time Li Duansheng captured its leader, which made Long Yan happy. Therefore, when Li Duan's class returned to the court, he issued an edict to open the city gate and ordered hundreds of civil and military officials to go out of the city to greet him.
