Chapter 33: Jealousy
As soon as I got out of the carriage, I felt that the atmosphere around me was not normal, and the ordinary post house suddenly felt like it was shrouded in a layer of dark and low silk cloth.
Even the crickets in the grass outside the house couldn't scream loudly, and I was worried that there was something bad in the inn, so I excused myself and let a small button send me to the door.
Then, under his watch, he limped out of the crack in the door and slipped in, closed the door, and when he turned around, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Yexun stood silently on the pillar under the eaves of the porch, looking at me with a gloomy face: "I ran back and forth day and night because of the demon spirit, but I didn't expect Lord Bai to be very leisurely!"
Yexun's angry appearance made me feel very weak: "If I say, do you believe that I went out because I was asking for news?"
A cool breeze blew across the back of my neck, and Yexun's face was terrifying: "Then tell me what you found?"
Uh, uh, this one.
I couldn't say why I couldn't tell the old man for a long time, and I was about to confess to him and strive for leniency, but I saw Ye Xun's eyes fall on my hands gloomily.
I was busy smiling, and shrunk my hands behind my back, and the sky was not giving face, but this glow would be reflected in the sky brightly, like the fire of the polar night.
The maid in the inn was also very interested, and noticed that the atmosphere was not right, so she was even more cautious and passed by with her head down.
I don't dare to run, this time is different from the past, catching a cripple is easy for Yexun, not to mention, this guy's eyes are burning and I can't move.
After a moment of relative stalemate, my lame leg began to feel numb, and I leaned over silently and shifted the weight to the other foot.
Because of such a small movement, Yexun suddenly stepped forward, I instinctively shrank back, but my back happened to lean on his hand, he leaned over slightly, and the other hand picked up my knee: "You have the smell of him." β
I snapped back to my senses in shock: "Hey, no, this, Lord Night......"
Huh? Is he jealous of me?
From the gate of the post house to the wing room where I lived, it was not far away, but the road that Yexun hugged me horizontally was very long, and every step I took, I seemed to hear the sound of a maid's dream shattered.
This is now because of the invitation of King Chen, and I will cut off my beard, and then I haven't given me a good look since I entered the door.
Ye Xun hugged me, kicked open the door of the wing, and gave me a shudder, he strode into the room, and then ruthlessly threw me on the couch.
This action involved my waste foot, and I grinned in pain, and was about to open my mouth to get angry, but I saw Yexun's gloomy face.
I had an idea, so I simply hugged the waste foot directly, buried my head and said aggrievedly: "I know it's wrong." β
The air was silent for a moment, only to hear a soft sigh from Yexun's side, and then all that caught my eye was a pair of cloud boots with a black background and a moon-white robe embroidered with dark lines.
I looked up cautiously, only to see his outstretched hand, saying that it was too late, and I subconsciously pulled my sleeve robe to cover my head: "You, what are you going to do?"
He was stunned, his hand went straight down, and he picked up the injured foot and half-squatted in front of me, and asked with concern, "Does it hurt?"
I don't know what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd, he was still aggressive and wanted to eat people just now, why did he shush and ask for warmth.
I was afraid that he would harm me, so I wanted to gather my strength to secretly pull my foot back, but unfortunately I was discovered by Yexun, only to see him frown, and held my foot tighter: "Don't move!"
He gently removed the shoes and socks from my feet, revealing the wound infected by the evil spirit, and the white flowery feet were covered with dazzling bruises, how ugly and ugly they were.
I craned my neck and looked at it, surprised, "How's it still β it's serious?"
Ye Xun sneered coldly: "It's not worth sacrificing your life to be a gentleman." β
He really still has a small belly and chicken intestines because of King Chen's incident and hates me, how can I now be a fish on the knife board, if I provoke Yexun, I will not be happy.
Don't say it's a foot, even the whole leg has to be twisted off for him, the key is that I can't urge the spiritual power to use the spell now, even if the soul can leave the law body, but at this time, the two are fused, and the physical body suffers from the pain, I will never be able to hide.
"King Chen and I just went to listen to the play, and the palace also sent someone to invite him at that time, if he wasn't there, I wouldn't know how to deal with it......
Ye Xun once again cleaned the bruises on my feet, and his tone was not salty or light: "Lord Bai has always been very powerful in the underworld, how did he get here, even a few people have to scruple?"
Me: "You said that this is in the human world, and I can't use my spiritual power alone, if I offend others, how can a cripple escape?"
Yexun: "Before I left, I said that you would call yourself sick and not see guests, if you don't have the heart to go out, how can this be?"
I almost didn't get a mouthful of old blood out of these words: "If you really want to be King Yuechen...... Ahββ!!!!h
The sharp pain under my feet rushed into my limbs like lightning, and I was so excited that I fell on the bed in pain and gasped for breath for a long time.
Thinking back to the sharp pain just now, I couldn't help but feel sad from it, and the bitterness in my heart made me cry and sob.
"Get up, it's been dealt with!" Ye Xun appeared on the side of the bed with an indifferent face.
Looking at him, I tried to move my feet, and it was fine, and there was nothing that made me feel that it was still there.
I held back my grief: "Why?"
Ye Xun sorted out his sleeve robe: "There is no reason, the affairs of the palace must be resolved quickly, enter the palace early tomorrow morning, and then go to meet the imperial concubine and the national teacher." β
"No," I struggled to my feet, "I'm all like this, and you're still trying to get things done?"
Yexun sneered: "What's the matter, you can go out to watch the play with your stump leg, why can't you do business?"
Woo woo, stump leg?!He really twisted my leg for me.
With a sense of indignation, I slept with my head covered until dawn.
It was still the noisy shouting outside the room that woke me up, and according to the maid at the inn, the summoned eunuch was waiting outside the door before dawn to invite me into the palace.
I jumped to open the door with my stump and stumbled into the stool halfway through, and the clear feeling made me stumble.
The pain in my foot made me scold my mother, and after a moment of subsidence, I was pleasantly surprised to find that my leg was actually better!
If you can walk, it doesn't hurt anymore, and even the inducing of internal breath is no longer restricted.
The door of the room was pushed open at this time, and the little maid in front saw me sitting on the ground, and immediately rushed over to help me: "Even if the saint is sick, she can't do this to herself, besidesββ"
I hate people who say something in the middle of a sentence and then immediately keep silent, if you really don't want to say it, don't add that redundant and curious suffix to the end.
"Besides, what?" I wiped my face with a wet handkerchief handed by another maidservant.
The handmaidens looked at each other, stunned that no one had an idea to answer the question I asked.
"Besides, this time it was the imperial concubine who summoned you!" Behind the maid, the voice of Yexun came unhurriedly.
"Really?" I staggered to my feet, and walked in front of Yexun under the watchful gaze of the maidservants who were so surprised that their eyes were about to burst out of their sockets.
That guy is wearing a robe with white clouds and dark lines today, he is already delicate and white, and now this dress, he is not powerful enough and handsome is more than him!
Seeing me walking on the ground, Yexun's face was always unfazed, and a pair of phoenix eyes looked me up and down: "Okay?"
"It's so good!" I only care about why the imperial concubine suddenly summoned me, and I'm just perfunctory about Yexun's question.
"Why did the imperial concubine summon me suddenly?"
"I don't know. His face turned a little impatient, and the word "bored" was written on both eyes, still in strong and powerful italics.
I asked myself if I had offended him in the morning, but this guy's attitude changed quickly, and he was moody and unpredictable.
There was no enchantment around the post station, for fear of suspicion, so before setting off for the palace, Yexun set a spell for the little lame.
Unless he unravels it himself, it is difficult for ordinary spells to detect the breath of the little lame.
I touched the pack of silver needles in my arms, remembered the first two impromptu needles, and cheekily guessed: "You say, does the imperial concubine want to thank me this time?"
Ye Xun hooked the corners of her mouth, as if she was smiling: "She is probably so angry that she is crazy, but she only summoned you today, it should be the emperor's side to deal with it, so she saved up enough thoughts to ask for your life." β
I was very unconvinced: "Then it depends on whether I pierce her or not!"
That being said, I've only seen these deceitful harem infighting in the theater a few times, and I used to think it was smelly and long like a footwrap.
Now it's about to happen to me, and I have a feeling of regret that 'the book is used when it is used'.
How can I be dignified and polite to see the tricks and come back alive from the hands of the imperial concubine?
