Chapter Twenty-Five: Unreal Peace

The morning light was faint, and everyone in the prince's mansion gradually got up. The maids who lived with Xiaogong opened their eyes and checked Xiaogong's whereabouts. Seeing the empty bed and the sheets untouched, I was sure that she hadn't returned.

"Sister Jade, do you say, did she come back last night? Did she just give up and run away with the money given by Mama?"

"Probably not, you see that she will snatch my quilt without a quilt, you know that she is not that simple. She could walk best, but if she didn't, we would have to be more careful. If she does come back, it will be nice to her these days. Jade shook her head and instructed.

"Sister, don't worry, we will definitely do a good job and drive away all those who want to harm His Highness!"

"Okay, get ready and go to serve. There are still two days before the candidate for the crown princess will enter the palace, and the five young ladies are all daughters of a high-powered family, and we must not embarrass His Highness. Jade said, finally fastening her clothes, tidying up her clothes, and stepping forward to open the door. The other tidy-up maids also came out together.

As soon as Jade went out, she noticed that there seemed to be something by the door. As soon as she turned her head, she saw Xiao Gong falling asleep nearby, and she was startled for fear that Xiao Gong would hear something, so she was surprised: "Why is she sleeping here?"

"yes, why is she sleeping here? It's not pretending to be asleep, or we wouldn't have heard her knock on the door. ”

"Leave this alone, wake her up first. Jade commanded with a frown.

"Okay, I'll come, I'll come. Zhu'er actively stood up and squatted beside Xiao Gong in agreement. Stretched out his hand and tugged at Xiao Gong's arm, and shouted, "Hey, Xiao Gong, get up, wake up! Xiao Gong, did you hear me, get up and work-"

"It's so comfortable—"

"Comfortable? She won't sleep outside, she'll be sick. Zhu'er laughed when she heard Xiao Gong's dream words that she couldn't help but confide. After laughing, he told her to get up.

After screaming a few times, Xiao Gong reluctantly reacted, first subconsciously withdrew his hand, and gradually opened his eyes, and saw a large group of people around him, and another one squatting in front of him, he was suddenly startled, and he was a little confused.

She clearly remembered that she was still with Murong Shuo just now. He is still transmitting internal forces to himself. The kind of comfort she had never experienced before made her close her eyes unconsciously. And then wake up right here. Not only was Murong Shuo no longer there, but what he didn't expect was that it was already daytime.

"Why are you sleeping here?" Jade asked, seeing Xiao Gong's confused look when she woke up, and approached to help her up.

"Oh, I came back too late last night, and when I saw that my sisters were asleep, I didn't dare to disturb and slept here. The sisters are all up, I don't know what Xiao Gong should do today?" Xiao Gong didn't want to mention himself and Murong Shuo to them, so he changed the topic and asked.

"You must have been tired yesterday, so rest after breakfast today. Just get up in the evening and help prepare our dinner materials. ”

Jade knew that Gong was changing the subject, but she didn't care how she got back. She doesn't know much, she only knows how to follow the plan above so that she can't make mistakes, and the rest of the problems that need to be thought about are not within her consideration.

"Really? But, didn't it mean that His Highness was going to welcome the candidate of the crown princess into the palace, and the palace shouldn't be very busy?

Xiao Gong really didn't want to ask this, this was purely to find something to do for himself. Yesterday was tiring all day, and of course she wanted to take a good rest. But this awakening, the spirit is quite good. Her legs and arms, which she thought were sore, didn't seem to be a big problem. It seems that Murong Shuo really did a good thing in the end.

"I really don't need to, you slept outside last night, and your body must be even more unbearable. You better go into the house and sleep, you see, we've got a new one for your bed. You have a good rest, and I'll ask Zhu'er to bring you breakfast later. Seeing that Xiao Gong wanted to work, of course she would not agree, so with a smile on her face, she sent Xiao Gong into the room with a half-push and a half-push, pointing to her futon to show her. even helped Xiaogong take off her shoes with her own hands and stuffed her into the quilt before stopping.

Of course, Xiao Gong would like to be able to rest, since there are still people who will come to deliver food. Then she will definitely be rejected if she refuses. So, Xiao Gong nodded obediently and got into the quilt to lie down.

Jade saw that Xiaogong was obedient, so she was relieved to leave with the others. She said that if someone would bring food over, it would naturally come true. In these two days, she and others will be very good to her. Just like every poor person who has been rescued by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Everyone loves each other and helps each other like family and friends.

It's just that her good days are only for a few days.

After the jade and the others left, Xiao Gong relaxed and hid under the covers. I closed my eyes again, thinking back to the feeling I had just felt when the warm current was still there. The comfort that had just died down was revived again, and it began to circulate in her body again under the leadership of Xiao Gong's consciousness. Xiao Gong fell into a deep sleep unconsciously.

When Zhu'er brought breakfast, Xiao Gong was already asleep. Zhu'er called her a few times, but when she saw that Xiaogong didn't respond, she put down her meal and went about her own business.

Although Xiao Gong had the remaining internal force in Murong Shuo's body, she could also urge it to circulate again. But she doesn't know how to use this internal force, so she can only lead that internal force around. Fortunately, she only used this internal force in the sore area, so she didn't cause any major mistakes. After she felt that there was no problem, she guided that internal force into her dantian according to the books she had read before. Whether it's useful or not, there's nothing wrong with keeping it.

The internal force no longer operates, and the little gong wakes up at noon. The breakfast that had cooled down in the morning had been replaced, and the food that was now on the table was still hot. The little gong cooed with hunger, and sat down at the table without bothering to freshen up, and began to devour it.

Living in the Prince's Mansion has to worry about having a meal or not, this day is really impossible. However, the little gong is the one who sees it. Of course, there is wine today, drunk today, and food today.

In the next two days, just like Jade said, Xiao Gong was taken care of for the next two days after the first day of ordeal, which made her more and more uneasy. Work is every day, but it is light, easy and effortless. The rest of the time has become her free time, and everyone else is busy with the candidate for the crown princess, and only she is the most idle.

As for Murong Shuo, Xiao Gong hadn't seen him since that night. said that he wanted to think about it, but he was just afraid that he would come up with some tricks that he didn't know and find trouble for himself.
