13. Brain damage
The sky was getting darker, the room was silent, and the afterglow of the setting sun reflected on the man dressed in black, softening his silhouette.
Xiao Natsuko changed into tea and stood aside.
The man's cold voice suddenly sounded: "What is the Yan family doing today?" He leaned back in the Taishi's chair and rubbed his aching forehead. In the dim light, it seemed that his fingers were long and his face was like jade.
Xiao Xiazi bent down and arched her hand: "Miss Yan is resting in the house today, saying that she is unwell. ”
The man frowned, rubbed his forehead and slammed his hand, she was not feeling well?
Xiao Xiazi looked at the man's face cautiously, and when she saw that there was nothing wrong, she held her scalp and swallowed her saliva and said, "Miss Yan asked someone to pass the word and say ......."
"Say what?" Only then did he open his eyes and look at Xiao Natsuko.
Xiao Xiazi's body stiffened when he was seen, although His Royal Highness said that he hadn't been angry for a while, but no one dared to take it lightly: "Miss Yan said that she was uncomfortable, I'm afraid ......" Seeing King Ji's cold expression, his body shook, "I'm afraid I can't serve Your Highness, please Your Highness don't have to go." ”
After speaking, his face was bitter, and he felt that Miss Yan actually gave such a face to His Royal Highness, but it was really bitter for him, the messenger. At the same time, he carefully shrunk his shoulders and tried to minimize his sense of savings.
Sure enough, his voice fell, and the breath in the room suddenly dropped.
"Go down!" King Ji grimaced, lowering his eyes and not knowing what he was thinking. He picked up the secret letter he had in his hand and frowned, but there was no sign of anger.
Xiao Xiazi lowered his head even more when he heard this, bent down and retreated gently, lest he be angered by his master.
As the sky grew darker, candles were already lit in the room, and as the flames danced, the shadows in the room flickered.
The green gauze tent floated, an elegant fragrance wafted in the air, and the woman slept soundly with a green silk draped on the brocade quilt.
His Royal Highness King Ji stood in front of the bed, standing with his hands in his hands, with a shadow on his face.
The woman's face looked picturesque in the light, and her skin was like cream. It's really in response to that sentence to look at the beauty under the lamp, and the beauty is as warm as jade.
He leaned down slowly, his hand lightly touching Yan Qiu's face, with an imperceptible warmth between his eyebrows. Looking at the woman's face, his eyes became deeper and deeper.
"Tangyuan! I want to eat rice balls! In a daze, a coquettish sound sounded, and his big hand was suddenly caught by one hand, and at this time, the eyes of the person lying on the bed also opened suddenly, and the brightness was amazing.
Before he could come back to his senses, his eyes narrowed, and without thinking, he held Yan Qiu's hand with his backhand, and the aura all over his body was very terrifying.
"It hurts, bad guy ......" Yan Qiu pursed his mouth and shouted timidly, and slapped his hands with tears in his eyes.
After seeing the situation clearly, King Ji was stunned for a moment, and his condensed breath stagnated, and then his body relaxed and let go of the slender hand in his hand.
"Bad guys, bad guys......" Yan Qiu didn't care about the man's thoughts, she covered her wrists, looked at King Ji timidly, but kept shouting in her mouth.
"Don't cry," King Ji frowned and scolded. The green tendons on his forehead jumped, and he suddenly regretted his behavior of coming to Zhuyuan tonight. After getting along with each other for a while, he was still quite satisfied with Yan's well-behaved, who would have thought that she was so noisy today for some reason, just like a five-year-old child.
After being reprimanded, Yan Qiu hiccuped and didn't dare to cry anymore, but sobbed quietly: "Mother, Aqiu is afraid." After saying that, he looked up again, with tears in his eyes, like a puppy.
His Royal Highness King Ji: "......"
"Do you know me?" He was dressed in black, wearing a jade crown on his head, with three-dimensional facial features and an unknown expression on his face. He stretched out his long hand again, stroking Yan Qiu's face again and again, full of danger.
Yan Qiu pursed her lips and muttered, "Don't you know Ah Qiu?" Ah Qiu is unhappy, Ah Qiu wants to eat. Saying that, Yan Qiu threw himself into King Ji's arms, his head arched one after another, and his hands began to tear up the black clothes.
His Royal Highness King Ji, who was stiff, had green tendons jumping on his forehead, and he pressed Yan Qiu in his arms to prevent her from moving. Pursed his lips, what is this Yan doing today? How did you look like this, could it be that you couldn't drink? But there was only a strong fragrance on her body, and there was no taste at all.
"Mother, Ah Qiu is so hungry~" Yan Qiu fluttered in King Ji's arms, trying hard to scratch his clothes, hum~ Ah Qiu is so aggrieved.
King Ji's brows furrowed again, but then he regained his expressionless face. He calmly took Yan Qiu out of his arms, threw him on the bed, and then covered it with a brocade quilt, not pity the jade at all, making Yan Qiu scream in it, but he couldn't climb out.
"Xu Yi" He glanced at the writhing quilt, his eyes drooped, and he called in a cold voice.
Immediately a black shadow came in silently from the outside, kneeling in front of the bed, the sky was dark today, there was no moonlight, and the black shadow was easier to blend into the darkness. "Your Highness" The black shadow knelt on one knee with his hands clenched into fists, his eyes hanging on the ground, waiting for orders.
"Go to the kitchen and get something to eat." King Ji stared at the chaotic brocade quilt, pressed it tightly with his hand, and commanded without raising his head.
"Yes" Xu responded expressionlessly, and then jumped lightly, like a dragonfly dotting water, and disappeared into the night without a sign.
After Xu Yi left, King Ji's hand pressed on the quilt was removed, his eyes were dark, and he looked at Yan Qiu quietly. And Yan Qiu finally crawled out of the quilt at this time, his hair was messy, there were still a few red marks on his face, and his clothes were scattered. King Ji, who was looking at her, looked at her for a moment, and then moved away lightly.
"Big villain, hum~" Yan Qiu was full of tears, his face was angry, his chest was bulging, and he suddenly pounced again, wanting to take revenge on King Ji.
Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness King Ji did not wrinkle his eyebrows, calmly stretched out a finger, and gently pushed her forehead, and Yan Qiu fell on her back. "Wow!" A howl and cry sounded, Yan Qiu leaned against the wall, covering the back of his head and tears flowed down.
King Ji's face stiffened, covered his lips and coughed, and pulled Yan Qiu up. "Don't cry" His voice was hoarse, and his eyes began to become impatient, but he endured it again.
"I want to eat rice balls, burp ......" burped, Yan Qiu covered his head, and began to bargain with King Ji. Even if her IQ dropped, she didn't forget to eat glutinous rice balls to cure her brains.
King Ji didn't speak, and looked at Yan Qiu quietly with dark eyes. Yan Qiu shrank, his mouth was deflated and he was about to start howling. In the silent night, a soft sigh sounded, and His Royal Highness King Ji finally reached out and grabbed Yan Qiu and let her lean on his arms.
"Glutinous rice balls, glutinous rice balls." Yan Qiu's tears were wiped on his face, like a flower cat, and when he saw that King Ji seemed to have agreed, he clapped his hands excitedly and rushed over, raised his head and bit down......
King Ji: "......"
"Your Highness, what you want to eat." Xu Yi soon returned, standing outside the curtain with a food box in his hand.
"Put it outside, you go down!" A cold voice came, Xu Yi lowered his head and gently put the food box on the table outside, and then jumped over to the laurel tree outside, silently.
After a long time, there was a sound of soft footsteps in the room, and King Ji's slender hand opened the curtain, and his face was full of gloom. He glanced back at the silent chamber, his brow furrowed, and then strode away on his long legs.
Yan Qiu in the inner room slept soundly at this time, as if nothing had happened just now.
On the second day, Yan Qiu woke up and was just about to get up, when there was a sharp pain in the back of his head. She hissed and reached to cover the back of her head, only to notice that there was a large swollen bag.
"Cai Wei Caige, you come in, I have something to ask you." She shouted, feeling as if something had happened last night.
The sound of anxious footsteps came, Cai Wei Cai Ge bypassed the curtain, walked quickly to the bed, and asked with a concerned face: "Master, what's wrong with you...... Before he finished speaking, he looked at Yan Qiu with his mouth open and a look of surprise.
"Master, you ...... Your face ......" Cai Ge swallowed slowly, she couldn't believe that the person in front of her with a red forehead, swollen cheeks, and narrowed eyes was her beautiful master, and she was so frightened early in the morning!
"What's wrong with my face?" Yan Qiu asked with a strange face, and when she saw the expressions of the two maids who couldn't bear to look at her, she suddenly had a bad premonition, and she ...... I can't have a brain crack last night, and then disfigure myself! (* ̄ー ̄)
"Bring me a mirror." She stroked her face gently, and was frightened little by little, this face was swollen like a pig's head, who was she? Yan Qiu was frightened by herself.
In the dim bronze mirror, the woman's face was swollen as big as a steamed bun, her eyes were narrowed into a slit, and her whole face was red, which was miserable.
Yan Qiu: "......" was so frightened early in the morning, what did she do last night? In the past few years, she has gone to bed very early on the first day of junior high school, and this situation has not happened for a long time......
"Slave and maid, go and ask for a doctor, master, don't be afraid." Cai Wei comforted her, and then ran out with her skirt in her hand.
Yan Qiu didn't have time to respond, Cai Wei had already gone out. She sighed helplessly, turned to look at herself in the mirror, and for a while, she waved her hand to let Cai Ge put down the bronze mirror, and simply couldn't see her heart and purify it.
On this day, His Royal Highness King Ji has been staying in the study of the outer courtyard, not only seeing the staff, but also not going to the bamboo garden at night.
Cai Wei went to see King Ji at noon, and wanted to report that Yan Qiu's face was inexplicably swollen, but she was stopped by Xiao Xia Ziqi outside the door.
