16. Strange
"Bao'er, what the hell is going on?" I took Bao'er's hand and asked weakly.
Bao'er wiped away her tears and sobbed and said, "Since the prince sent Brother Sanbao to send the princes to the capital to exchange Miss Helian, he has been anxious, and the princess has been crying in front of the prince, saying that the prince should not be for a woman, even ignoring his three children, the prince is even more anxious, he has not returned to the house for several days, and he doesn't know where he went, and he became like this after he came back." ”
"How many days has the prince been back?" I glanced at Zhu Di, he was obviously much thinner, his eye sockets were a little sunken, and my heart was in pain, so I could only hold his hand---- he kept wanting to lick the blood left on his hand, as if it was the most delicious delicacy in the world.
"More than ten days, at first the princess thought that the prince was stimulated by something, a few days later, then pulled him back to the upper room and closed, I don't want the prince to smash all the vases, teacups, tables and chairs in the room, even the mattress was cut with scissors, and finally wrapped a quilt and broke out, all over the garden, and ran out of the street to sleep for two nights, the princess personally took someone to pull him back, I didn't expect him to make a brute force, just don't come back, the princess is afraid of being tight, he is now confused, will hurt himself, He could only send two guards to follow him and watch over him from a distance. No, the princess has not eaten tea for more than ten days, lost a few laps, and almost blinded her eyes from crying. Bao'er said to me and Sanbao, "Miss Helian, you have a lot of ideas, and you know the characters on the rivers and lakes, can you find a few doctors for the prince to take a look and see if you can cure it?" The princess almost called all the doctors in Beiping, and the prince either didn't let him see it, or spit on others, and it was easy for two of them to catch the pulse of the prince, and they all said that they were in a hurry, and they were crazy, and they didn't know when they would recover, and they might never recover, and they lived like this crazy for the rest of their lives. ”
I couldn't bear to listen to it anymore, so I said to Bao'er, "Sanbao is not happy in his heart, you take him to rest first, and the prince will leave it to me here." ”
Bao'er nodded, went to support Sanbao, and suddenly turned back to me and said, "Miss, Yuelong City is now leading all the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion outside the city. ”
I was stunned for a moment, "Now is the time to use him." ”
Bao'er didn't say anything more, and went out with Sanbao.
At the moment, there were only me and Zhu Di left, and I held his face, probably because he was wandering around these days, and he had many small scars on his face and hands, and I didn't know if he touched it himself, or if he was secretly bullied. With tears of distress streaming down my face, I tore the quilt off his body and whispered, "It's summer, you can't wrap the quilt." ”
Zhu Di glanced at me, obediently loosened the quilt, and the clothes on his body were even more unsightly, not only tattered, but also dirty, I took him by the hand, "I'll take you to wash, okay...... Zhu Di? ”
Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, laughed, and walked outside with me. As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Xu Yunhua standing at the door, glaring at me angrily, I hurriedly let go of Zhu Di's hand, and didn't dare to speak, after a long time, Xu Yunhua said, "Since he is willing to listen to you, you can go and wash him......" I was already choked up, I hurriedly said, "Princess, I'm sorry......"
"The prince is already like this, what else do you say I'm sorry!" Xu Yunhua held back tears and said, "I'll send someone to give you his clothes later." With that, she turned and left, and the back was depressed and sad, and made me feel so sad. looked at Zhu Di again, but he was still stupid and stupid, his eyes were empty, and he didn't care about anything.
He took him to the room behind the study, called for a wooden bucket, filled it with water, and said to him, "Take off your clothes yourself." Zhu Di's eyes were cloudy, and he stood by the water, motionless. I had to blush, undo his clothes, and take them off one by one. When I took off my pants, I was really embarrassed, so I pushed him directly into the water, let him soak up, Xu was born lice on his body, at first in the water, he also felt comfortable, so he didn't make any more noise, I took a comb, wet his hair all over the head, a little bit of clean and combed open, and finally tied it up with a belt, and scrubbed the mud off his face.
When I washed it on my chest, I only felt that my strong chest had not changed, why did the person in front of me become like this? I put a wet handkerchief over his face, put a hand on his chest, and said softly, "You're pretending, aren't you?" You can't go crazy. ”
Zhu Di didn't speak, he leaned his head on the edge of the bucket, and his hands no longer splashed, but also on the edge, and let me help him scrub it. With a stir in my heart, I took the veil off his face, only to see that he had fallen asleep with his eyes closed.
I had to endure the loss, wake him up and coax him out of the water, help him dry himself, and change his shirt. Helplessly, he was wearing dirty wet pants and asked him to change them himself, but he couldn't understand anything, so I gritted my teeth, squatted down, pulled down his pants, helped him put on new pants, and pulled him to the bed and let him lie down. Perhaps it had never been such a comfortable rest in these days, and he soon fell asleep.
I sat on the edge of the bed and wept silently, looked at him for a while, and then quietly went out, and when I arrived at Sanbao's residence, I saw Bao'er still with him, and the two were talking in a low voice.
Seeing that I was very depressed, Bao'er shook her head at Sanbao, and I asked, "What are you talking about?" ”
Bao'er glanced at Sanbao and said to me slowly, "Sanbao always doesn't believe it, and asks me if I have observed anything about the prince, and he always thinks that the prince is pretending to be crazy and stupid." But for more than ten days, I have followed him almost every inch, he has been crazy and stupid, the big quilt has never left his body, as long as someone gets closer to him, he will go crazy, even the princess is no exception, it is also strange, as soon as you come back, Miss, he actually listens to you. I thought, the prince just doesn't pretend to be crazy and stupid, if he can stay with the young lady for a long time, maybe he can get better. ”
Sanbao looked at me hopefully and asked, "Helian, do you think the prince is really crazy?" ”
I am actually very skeptical, but I can't find any evidence that he is pretending to be crazy on Zhu Di's body, but I really don't want to admit it, "I don't know." ”
Sanbao listened to my words, and Fu began to get irritable again, "How can this be! ”
Bao'er gritted her teeth and said, "Is the emperor really ready to kill all the vassal kings!" Cut one after another, no matter whether there is merit or there is a fault, all of them will not be let go, our prince has been guarding the frontier since he was a teenager, without him, how can there be the current tranquility and peace of the Ming Dynasty, such unloading and killing donkeys, where are you still talking about benevolence? ! The prince just saw that so many princes were beaten and driven crazy! ”
I shook my head, "It's all my fault." ”
As soon as I said this, Sanbao and Bao'er both stopped, and Sanbao sighed, "The princess hates you very much now, don't provoke it." ”
I smiled bitterly, "The princess doesn't hate me, the princess is also sad, I can understand it." ”
"I'll go and watch the prince." Sanbao didn't want to say anything more, so he went out.
I didn't want to see Bao'er sigh, so I went out to find a horse and hurried to the suburbs. Yuelongcheng has been following Zhu Di for some time, he is a capable person, and he has become more and more prosperous in Beiping in recent years, but Zhu Di is crazy now, and it is not his turn to take charge of the affairs of the entire Shenji Battalion, the more I think about it, the more strange I feel, I have to meet Yuelongcheng in person.
The guards at the city gate used to be Zhu Di's cronies, but now they have become the people brought by Zhang Yu, who is now the political envoy of Beiping, and is gradually depriving Zhu Di of his control over Beiping. After a careful examination of me, the gatekeeper let me go, and drove more than 20 miles out of the city to the place where the Shenji Battalion was stationed. I took out the waist card of Yanwangfu, but the person I saw said, "Dare to ask if it's Miss Helian?" ”
I was a little surprised, frowned and asked, "How do you know my name?" ”
"General Yue ordered, saying that a woman named Helianyi will definitely come to see him in the next few days."
My heart warmed, Yue Longcheng still understood me like this, so he said, "Since you know, why don't you take me to see him quickly." ”
Unexpectedly, this person said, "I'm sorry Miss, General Yue said, I don't see you." ”
I was dumbfounded, "What?!" ”
"General Yue specially instructed that if Miss Helian comes, she is not allowed to set foot in the barracks." The guard was just right, and he had already stretched out his arms to cover me, and he drove me away.
I couldn't help but get angry, "He won't let me in, you go and call him out!" Just say that if he doesn't come out, I won't leave! ”
"General Yue said, Miss Helian said that it is useless to say anything, I don't see it." The man still didn't let go, until I sat outside the barracks until dawn, and I didn't see half of Yuelong City. I was thinking about Zhu Di in my heart, so I had to reluctantly go back to Yanwang's Mansion, but the doubts in my heart became more and more intense.
Zhu Di suddenly went crazy, Yuelong City was in charge of the Shenji Camp, but he closed the door to me, Bao'er and Xu Yunhua's performance looked really heartbroken, and even Sanbao had to believe the reality in front of me like me. It all seems reasonable, but there is always something strange about it. I think all this except for Yuelong City can tell me why, then I can only wait for Zhu Di to come to his senses and tell me in person. No one will tell me, no one will be able to tell me.
When I returned to the study, the three guards were at the door, I walked in to see, Zhu Di was still asleep, the expression on his face was like a sleepy baby, he actually washed his old city mansion, it looked simple and pure, I reached out to stroke his face, he turned around, picked up my arm, and continued to sleep.
