Volume 1 There is a Dragon Sparrow in Lin'an Chapter 5 The Princess of the Dead Country
Near dawn, Chu Xianzhao woke up from his sleep, opened his eyes, and his warm hand as jade climbed up to his forehead, the young man felt cool and very comfortable, the woman in front of him turned around, opened the warm egg in the copper kettle, held it with a cotton cloth, and applied it to Chu Longque's forehead carefully, their foreheads were almost together, making her blush a little embarrassed.
"Sister Young Slave, how long have I been asleep?"
"Am I your sister?" her voice was cold, but the movements of her hands were still so warm.
"Sister......" he shouted tentatively, his voice was very aggrieved, the woman stopped what she was doing, and sighed: "Your Royal Highness the prince must not call me that, Her Royal Highness the princess knows that she will punish the slave maid." ”
"Second sister isn't here. He struggled to sit up, but found that his body was extremely sore, the woman held his back and supported his arm, Chu Xianzhao felt that the wound on his back had become numb, and the immortal lock on his heart had disappeared.
"Young slave, do you know what happened last night?"
"It is said that last night, on the birthday of His Royal Highness the Prince, several Assassins infiltrated the palace to assassinate His Majesty the Emperor...... That's what my brother told me. Su Younu said.
"Did your brother tell you about my ...... of destroying the Assassins? Detail. Chu Xianzhao asked tentatively.
Last night, when she saw His Royal Highness the Prince, whose back was wrapped in a silk scarf, she was shocked, wondering if there was anyone in the palace who could hurt His Royal Highness so badly, and even seriously injured himself.
Both of them know it, but some things are still not broken.
"Your Majesty has instructed me to take care of you, and to tell you if anything happens," she said after a moment's thought.
Three days later, His Royal Highness the Prince, who was seriously injured, woke up leisurely, the wound on his back had healed, and she almost stayed by Chu Xianzhao's bedside for the past three days, wiping his body and feeding him with water and food.
"Your Highness, this was taken from the palm of your hand by the slave maid, and you caught it dead at that time. Su Younu took out a blood-stained scarf from behind him, Chu Xianzhao's eyes lit up, and he took the scarf and examined it carefully.
Most of the area of the scarf has been contaminated with blood, Chu Xuanzhao scraped off the blood stains on it with his fingernails, revealing a circle of patterns embroidered with chrysanthemums, under the strong smell of blood, he could smell the faint fragrance of daffodils, he thought for a moment, and stuffed the scarf into his arms.
"Young slave, go and rest. Chu Xianzhao said lightly.
"Your Highness must not drive the slaves away, His Majesty the Emperor has instructed the slaves to take care of His Highness, and the slaves and maids should change the medicine for His Highness. She said softly.
Chu Xianzhao was stunned for a moment, took off his clothes, he was startled by the wound on his body, there was an extremely fierce sword wound on his chest, only an inch was missing and it would not enter the heart, Su Younu soaked a piece of cotton cloth in the warm medicinal solution, and pressed it on Chu Longque's chest, he couldn't help but cry out for a while.
"Does it hurt?" she asked.
"A little bit. He barely managed to squeeze out a smile.
She looked at Chu Xianzhao's eyes, there was a trace of disgust in her eyes, she picked up a porcelain bottle, poured two drops of green liquid on her fingertips, and lit Chu Xianzhao's nose, a sweet smell of grass drilled into her nose, the coolness slowly spread from her mind, and the wounds on her body didn't seem to hurt so much.
She became a slave of Chu Xianzhao at the age of ten, and in an instant she became a slave from a princess above 10,000 people, and she began to learn to take care of others when she was a child.
But looking at the Emperor Dayin, who had thrown her father into the fire without blinking, what could she do, what could she do to watch the radiant Princess Dayin proudly pass by her?
There used to be thousands of choices for her, but with the fall of the Western Border Kingdom, there was only one option left for her, and that was to take care of the boy in front of her, who was two years younger than her, and take care of his children and grandchildren in the future until the day she died.
The family and country are shattered, but the person is in Lin'an, Su Younu, who washed the clothes for him in the cold winter, could not bear the cold water to the bone, looked at the frostbite on his hands, and threw Chu Longque's three-clawed eagle robe into the mud in a fit of anger, and splashed the basin of laundry water on His Royal Highness the Third Prince who was reading and writing, so frightened that he cried and his lips were purple.
After His Majesty the Emperor knew about this matter, he personally rushed to Chu Xianzhao's bedroom with a sword, intending to beat her with the hilt of the sword, but His Majesty the Emperor saw his son trembling in the quilt, and she was hiding in the corner and sobbing, so he couldn't be ruthless after all, and rushed to the palace bath with Chu Xianzhao.
But Chu Xun, who learned the reason for the incident, did not intend to let her go, she scolded her for standing in the snow with two buckets of cold water, only allowed to wear a single coat, when she was shivering in the cold wind with two lines of ice tears, and her face was purple and red.
After a long time, Chu Xianzhao, who returned in a thick cotton coat, walked up to her with ginger soup, but was kicked hard by her, who was almost a snowman, and the ginger soup was sprinkled in the snow, revealing an attractive ginger fragrance.
Chu Xianzhao patted the mud on her body and stood up, didn't say anything, but turned around and went into the house, grinding ink and writing again, at that time she only felt that everything was silent, the world was white, as if she was the only one left, she cried heartbreakingly in the snow, and that look made people feel distressed.
Later, she fainted, or Chu Xianzhao carried her into the house, when she woke up, lying on the bed of His Royal Highness the Prince, covered with a gold-veined flying eagle silk quilt, the purple smoke sandalwood burner on the side wafted out bursts of warm incense, smelling and smelling it is easy to make people fall asleep, she only felt warm all over, her feet were covered by a pair of warm hands, she looked at his face for a long time, only felt that the childish little face was full of worry, and her eyes were foggy, which reminded her of the winter in the west.
Chu Xianzhao took a bowl of steaming ginger soup and put it to her mouth and said, "Sister young slave, it won't be cold after drinking, Xiao Zhao won't need you to wash clothes in the future, you just sit in the house and read and write with me." ”
That year, His Royal Highness the Third Prince, who was only nine years old, stretched out his chubby little hand to wipe away the tears on her face, but the more tears were wiped, the more tears were wiped. She hugged the young prince tightly, and the ginger soup was sprinkled on the bed......
She soaked the bloodstained herbal scarf in a copper plate and said, "Your Highness is resting, and the slave will go down a bowl of noodles for you to eat." ”
"Add more chopped green onions. He said lazily.
She picked up the copper plate and was about to leave, the door was pushed open, and the second princess with her skirt hurriedly walked in, and reached the side of Chu Xianzhao's bed with a butt, tears flowed down, startling Chu Longque: "Sister!"
"Your Highness the Princess. Su Younu hurriedly lowered his head and stood aside.
"Xiao Zhao, how are you? Do you still hurt?" The second princess didn't care about her, but held Chu Xianzhao's hand tightly and wiped her tears.
"How's my father? He didn't want the second sister to worry too much about him, so he quickly changed the topic, and at the same time motioned for Su Younu to leave.
"My father was very angry, and he executed more than a dozen palace guards and eunuchs, and he came to see you several times, but you didn't wake up, but he died in a hurry. ”
"I'm tired of my father's troubles. He chuckled.
"How is your wound, let my sister take a look. The second princess wanted to pull open Chu Longque's clothes, but he pulled it stubbornly and didn't let her succeed: "Sister, the young slave sister just helped me change the medicine, it's okay-"
"Sister Young Slave, Sister Young Slave...... What a affectionate shout, little conscienceless, don't forget who helped you carry it after you broke your father's favorite imperial vase when you were a child. The princess took hold of his ear and said.
"Didn't you push it to the eldest brother later! The father also punished the eldest brother for kneeling in the pool for a day, and when he was scooped up, his face was as white as a ghost. Chu Longque said with annoyance, he had already admitted his mistake at that time, and whenever this matter was mentioned by the second princess, Chu Longque could always take care of it.
"In short, you only have one sister, Su Younu is just your slave, you can't call her sister!" the second princess said confidently.
"They took care of me for seven years...... It's been almost eight years, what's wrong with Sister Sheng?"
"I've been taking care of you for sixteen years!" she said with a thunderous blast.
"If you do this again, I'll have someone ask you out. Chu Xianzhao pursed his lips, pulled up the quilt and prepared to fall asleep.
"Don't, don't, sister is joking with you. She took the hand of the Rakhu Instantaneous. Said with a wink.
Chu Longque looked at the bright face like a flower and sighed: "Sister, why do you always target her, and people don't do anything to you." ”
Chu Xun glanced at his younger brother with his cheeks, and pointed at his head with his index finger: "You are too kind as a master, a person who is too gentle cannot be an emperor, if you want to inherit the position of your father, you must learn to think, do things and speak like him, and your body must be full of the spirit of a king!"
"Wang Ba?"
"You!" The second princess almost raised her hand to fight, but Chu Xuan summoned and said: "For the king of a country, you must know that you love left and right, although you are a cheap slave, as the king of a country, you must be able to respect yourself as a thief, although her crimes are extremely evil, her heart is wide enough to tolerate the world, and her mind is wide to accommodate all rivers." ”
"Yes, refute me with what I taught you. She snorted angrily.
"I'm sleepy, sister, go back. He closed his eyes tiredly, but the second princess still lay on the side of the bed: "Don't drive me away, my sister just wants to talk to you, your father's hair has fallen out in a hurry in the past two days, and your unreliable eldest brother doesn't know where to go, and I am the only one left in the palace." She pillowed on Chu Longque's arm and exhaled like an orchid.
In the yellowish sunlight, Her Royal Highness the princess's face became more bright and moving, and Chu Longque turned his head away and stopped talking.
Outside the door, Su Younu, who was holding a bowl of scallion and egg noodles in his hand, looked at the sister and brother inside through the crack in the door, and was silent for a long time.
