Chapter 147: Overcoming Rigidity with Softness
Hongxia came in from outside the door, followed by a row of maids, and placed the porridge, soup, and rice on the table in an orderly manner. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Whoever asked you to send these in, bring them out to me!" Jing Lu vented his anger to Hongxia, and lowered his voice and scolded angrily.
Hongxia immediately knelt on her knees, looked at Mu Xi timidly, and silently clenched her hands.
"Is there any porridge, I'm also hungry, help me up, look at the vegetables on the table, it seems to be delicious." Mu Xi calmly lifted the silk quilt and stretched out her arms to wait for Hongxia to help.
Jing Lu's tense nerves were instantly released by Mu Xi's faint words, he sighed slightly, tried his best to suppress his anger, and looked at the food on the table, his calm tone eased a lot.
"It looks good, you're still weak, don't get up, just let the people carry the table over."
Hongxia immediately instructed the maids to move the table to the side of the bed, and ordered the kitchen to immediately make porridge and send it over, everything was silent and orderly.
Mu Xi calmly looked at Jing Lu and covered her with a silk quilt again, and sat on the edge of the bed, still full of sadness and fatigue.
Hongxia asked people to take a lot of empty plates, and set aside all kinds of dishes separately, and a maid took a low table and put it at the head of the bed, and put all these small dishes in front of Mu Xi.
"How thoughtful you are, with Hongxia by my side, the prince can rest assured." Mu Xi took the bowl handed by Hongxia, which contained a warm clear soup, and smiled indifferently with satisfaction.
Hongxia's still timid expression looked up in amazement when she was praised by Mu Xi.
"What do you think?" Jing Lu saw Hongxia stop in a daze, and scolded with anger.
"Ah, it's nothing, it's just," Hongxia's eyes were filled with tears, and Mu Xi looked at her even more suspiciously, flashing her eyes constantly, twisting her head as hard as she could, hiding the tears that were quietly falling.
"Let's go out, I've been with Yanran for more than ten years, and now I still can't stand things like this, I can cry out about this little thing, it's really useless, go out! Everybody get out of here. Jing Lu was furious again, throwing his arms, eager to let everyone be thrown out of the door in one go.
"Hongxia stays, and the others go down." Although Mu Xi's voice was light, it had extra weight.
Hongxia stood in the middle of the room, not knowing what to do, looking at the prince with anxiety, and then at Mu Xi, waiting silently, her entangled mood made her face tense as if she was frozen.
Mu Xi looked at the pen and ink on the desk, Hongxia immediately understood, took the pen and ink and came to the bed.
"I think Hongxia is very good, and the prince is not in a good mood, so he uses Hongxia to be majestic and bully the weak with the strong." Mu Xi was coquettish, although she was complaining, she had no resentment at all, and her words were more like considerate consolation.
Jing Lu lost his temper and sat sullenly on the edge of the bed, still frowning.
Mu Xi whispered to the prescription, and then checked that Hongxia's writing was correct, "Let the witch doctor quickly match it, three copies each, wrap it in an oilcloth and bring it to me to see, go quickly." ”
Looking at Hongxia's figure running out of the door lightly, Mu Xi sighed slightly, looking at these meals, she had no appetite.
"Isn't the prince hungry, when will he leave?" There were only two of them in the room, she asked softly, her eyes stagnating on the meal beside the bed, the soup in her hand not moving at all.
Jing Lu looked sideways and couldn't help but ask with concern, "Is there anything uncomfortable?" Seeing that you are so tired, is the wound painful? Is it time to take medication? Didn't you say that you have to change the formula today? You just opened a new party? ”
His tone returned to being gentle and considerate, and he asked countless questions in one breath, even if Mu Xi could hear it clearly, he couldn't remember it, he only understood one thing, "When will you go?" ”
She asked.
"Tomorrow, or, the day after tomorrow. I haven't figured it out yet. He took the soup from her hand, gently placed it on the table, took the empty bowl, put some greens in it, and stuffed it into her hand.
Mu Xi looked down, for her, the temptation of green vegetables was greater than the clear soup like water just now, but her right hand was still unable to move, and her left hand was pinching the chopsticks, not obeying the call at all.
She looked up, Hongxia was probably frightened by the prince, waiting outside the door, and did not come in.
"Since you have to go, let the khan be happier, go early and return early." Her gaze swept over the greens, and she responded softly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he had already handed the green vegetables to her lips, gently put them in her mouth, turned his head to the table to look for them, and when he turned around, he scooped up a spoonful of the clear soup he had just put down and handed it to his lips.
At this time, Jinglu's anger disappeared, and he persuaded Mu Xi calmly and amiably, "You taste it, this soup looks bland, in fact, it is the most nourishing blood and qi, the kitchen has been boiling for a long time, you are a miracle doctor, you will know the power of this soup when you taste it, but you will never know if you don't taste it, you must always give those things that seem unpleasant, a chance to understand, maybe, you will like it, and maybe, you will not be able to do without it?" ”
Mu Xi took a spoonful of soup into his mouth, where was this to persuade her to drink soup, obviously he was trying to get her to give himself a chance.
The entrance of the clear soup is indeed different, it is made of longan, angelica, peanuts and other ingredients, with blood-replenishing neutral herbs, the taste is soft and slightly sweet, this sweet feeling, Mu Xi suddenly remembered Yu Lang's lips.
Her cheeks suddenly flushed, her eyes turned unsteadily to the side, and she bit her lips shyly and nervously, for fear that Jing Lu, who was looking at her intently, would find out what she was thinking.
Mu Xi's shyness made Jing Lu happy and worried, "Okay, I won't force you, but, Mu Xi, I'm worried about you, I'm worried that I'll leave, you will be trapped in a nightmare again, I'm worried that I'm not by your side, you will be bullied and hurt again, I'm worried about you, I'm worried about your injury, your body, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that when I come back, you will no longer be in this world, Yanran's departure made it take me three years to find myself back, maybe I thought too much, the bird of the bow." ”
When Jing Lu said that he was in the depths of his love, he suddenly changed his words, and tightly covered the sad door that had just been opened again.
Thinking of the conversation where the Khan once asked the prince to kill him, looking at Jing Lu's now tangled and embarrassed expression, Mu Xi put down the bowl in his hand and asked indifferently,
"What else does the Khan say?"
He turned his head sharply to look at it, surprised and even more solemn, "The Khan said that the prince likes you and lets you live in the palace." ”
Mu Xi was puzzled, since she was letting Jing Lu go on the expedition, no matter where she lived, she could be easily solved by the Khan's killers, why was she so troublesome to transfer her to the palace, how could there be a reason to call her to her side the more she was bored.
"Is this a condition that forces you to go on the expedition?" She asked suddenly, calmly.
"Yes," he hesitated for a moment, then replied in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter, isn't Prince Lei also in the palace, it just so happens that I miss him too, you are not in the house, I am also bored and panicked, in the palace, Prince Lei will definitely come to accompany me from time to time, so it's good, being with Lei'er is much happier than being with you boring people."
She quipped lightly, and he grabbed her hand, the corners of his mouth twisted for a long time, but he was silent, but his eyes were staring hard at her, looking carefully at her face.
After a long silent look, his face slowly approached her, this scene made Mu Xi suddenly see Yu Lang's lips kissing, her red cheeks bit her lips tightly, there was a pain between her lips, she was relieved, Jinglu's tall nose bridge had touched the tip of her nose, "Lord Wang." ”
