Not only did he sneeze, but he also had a faint chill down his spine, which seemed to be wafting from the northeast.

Minglan looked, and there was ...... over there Yongning Palace.

After a few more glances over there, Minglan couldn't figure out how she could suspect that the Queen Mother was scolding her behind her back, but it was not a strange thing for the Queen Mother to be annoyed by her, after all, she and Chu Li had made the Queen Mother lose face.

Shaking his head, Minglan was ready to leave the palace.

Just walked for half a cup of tea, and the palace maids and eunuchs were discussing.

"The Queen Mother's birthday banquet, the old princess was too lazy to enter the palace under the pretext of being unwell, but she actually entered the palace twice today ....... ”

"That is, I heard that she left angrily, and not long after leaving the palace, she came back angrily, she must have quarreled with the Queen Mother, otherwise the Queen Mother would not have a headache Xuan Taiyi. ”

"What do you say is there to quarrel with the old princess and the queen mother?"

"Who knows. ”

“……”

The palace maid muttered all the way away.

Minglan suddenly realized why he was sneezing.

She told the old princess that she heard rumors near Yongning Palace that the prince was not her own thing, and now Concubine Liu has given birth, she has always said that she is pregnant with a little princess, and the old princess believes that she will dream of something that did not happen, so she hurriedly came to the queen mother to question and strangle this thing that did not happen in the cradle.

But she entered the palace a little early, Concubine Liu gave birth to a little prince, what she dreamed of was not accurate enough, but the old princess came to the door to question, the queen mother is not easy to mess with, and the old princess will leave angrily.

As for leaving the palace and coming back, I should have heard that she knew that Concubine Liu was pregnant with the little prince, and claimed to be the little princess, in order to protect Concubine Liu and the little prince, and the emperor could testify about this.

Then she didn't wronged the queen mother, and she was reprimanded, how could the old princess be willing to accept such a bird anger, and hurriedly returned, and the queen mother was angry with the imperial doctor.

The prince is not the old princess's own thing, and the queen mother is definitely an insider.

But what Minglan didn't understand was that it was not a good thing for the old princess to poke out this matter, when she said this that day, the third wife's eyes lit up, and she was excited, as if she had been beaten with chicken blood, but why didn't she let the queen mother say it?

The queen mother caught such a big handle, she couldn't use it to threaten the old princess, nor could she use it to threaten the prince, but she was blamed by the old princess......

Why did she get more confused the more she thought about it?

This doesn't make sense.

However, she casually recited a few words of dreams, and even the Queen Mother was reprimanded by the old princess, she was scolded a few times, and she was not wronged by a few small sneezes.

Sitting in the carriage, Minglan returned to the palace with several carriages of rewards.

She returned home with great interest, but when she saw the secret guard helping Chu Li over, the smile on her face froze, she mentioned it in her heart, walked over quickly, and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

The dark guard shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just took two whips, put some medicine, and rest for a while." ”

Just two whips......?

Is it as light as he said, although Chu Li was wearing a mask and couldn't see his face clearly, but his lips were tightened, and his neck was full of beads of sweat, and the injury was not light.

Minglan remembered the situation when she met him in Zhegui Tower, when there was a bright whip mark on his back, and she was surprised that with his identity as the prince of the king, who could hurt him so badly.

These days, the scars on his back are good, at least they are smooth to the touch, but I didn't expect to add new whip marks.

Why is that?

Minglan glanced into the distance, there was the prince's study, and she said, "It was the prince who beat it?"

"It's not. ”

The Dark Guard shook his head.

"Who injured you?" Minglan asked.

The dark guard hesitated for a while, and Chu Li said with difficulty, "I'm fine." ”

Minglan wanted to help him back to Jinhuaxuan, but the secret guard didn't let him, and quickly helped Chu Li away, and Minglan trotted behind before catching up.

The secret guard helped him into the study, and when Minglan entered the room, the brocade robe on his back had been torn open, revealing the bloody whip marks on it, which was shocking.

The dark guard took the medicine and said Minglan, "I'll come." ”

The dark guard didn't refuse, and after putting the medicine down, he turned around and went out.

Chu Li was lying on the couch, weak and weak.

After Minglan helped him clean his wounds, he bit his fingers and dripped blood on his back, and he said, "Just take the medicine." ”

Minglan didn't listen to him, "It's just medicine, when will you get better?"

After dripping blood, Minglan sprinkled the medicine on his wound and said, "I saw you only received one whip last time, why did you get two whips this time, and who beat him?"

Chu Li shook his head lightly, "I'll take you to see it next time." ”

And next time?!

Minglan was angry, although it wasn't her who was hurt, Chu Li didn't care about herself, but she was beaten so badly that she looked uncomfortable.

No one spoke, but his breath was obviously a little thicker, Chu Li tilted his head, pulled the wound on his back, and grinned in pain, he said, "When my injury is better, I'll take you to see it." ”

Minglan took gauze to help him bandage it, and said, "Can't you not be whipped?"

"I want to too, but I'm not good at martial arts, so I can't dodge. ”

Minglan condensed.

He still called martial arts inadequate?

Third Young Master Chu couldn't beat him even if he joined forces, he was so humble, how could the others live?

"Excessive modesty equals pride," Minglan hummed.

Chu Li moved his back lightly, crying and laughing, he was injured like this, how proud he was, "I have seen the strength of the enemy, and I know how small I am." ”

Minglan was silent.

Being able to capture the old prince and the county lord of Zhaoning together, the strength of the enemy can be imagined, and he worked so hard to save his grandfather and sister.

helped Chu Li wrap and bandage his wounds, and brought him tea to drink.

As a result, when he came back, Chu Li was already tired and asleep.

Minglan sat on the side, couldn't stay any longer, so he walked to the side of the bed to find the secret guard, and asked, "Why is he tired like this, and how long has he been practicing?"

The dark guard replied, "Master has practiced martial arts for half an hour, that's it, don't worry too much about the princess, he will recover half of it when he wakes up." ”

"Does the princess know about his injury while practicing martial arts?" Minglan asked in a low voice.

The dark guard shook his head, "The princess doesn't know. ”

She guessed that the princess didn't know, otherwise the princess would not have to die of distress, the palms of her hands and the backs of her hands were full of meat, knowing that the enemy was strong, even if she tried hard, she was not sure, the princess might not let Chu Li live so hard.

This is probably one of the reasons why he doesn't live in the palace.

Before, he was in Zheguilou, but now that the princess is not in the mansion, he just returned to Jinhuaxuan, and no one found that he was injured along the way, probably because he was too tired to stand when he practiced martial arts, or he was poisoned.

After the secret guard left, Minglan stayed for a while, then let the maid boil porridge, and waited for Chu Li to wake up and feed him.

And so on, an hour and a half passed.
