003 Drugged
Satisfied with seeing Xiao Zi's shrinkage, the second princess changed her face and bowed forward to support Xiao Zi's shoulders, making her stand up, her voice was gentle and a little weird, "Xiao Zi, in this Qingnian Palace, you are the only one left who can take charge of things, Aunt Xin's illness, you can take care of it more, you can no longer let the ninth brother use medicine at will!" After saying that, she stuffed a bag of things into Xiao Zi's hand and whispered a few words in her ear, only the two of them could hear. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Xiao Zi's lips trembled, her eyes widened, and she looked at the cracks in the bluestone slab underground, which seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.
After the second princess finished speaking, she pinched Xiao Zi's immature face, and then followed the third prince to leave with a smile.
The ninth prince who was hiding in the flowers and plants crawled out, still holding the stone bowl tightly in his arms, and when he saw Xiao Zi still standing in place, he couldn't help but drink, "Xiao Zi! This sound frightened Xiao Zi almost screamed, and then remembered the existence of the ninth prince, and quickly responded.
The ninth prince ran over and saw that Xiao Zi's expression was wrong, thinking that she was injured.
"They're bullying you? Where did it hurt? The ninth prince saw the blood marks on her neck and shoulders, and her childish face was full of anger and worry, "I'll get some herbs for you later." You guard the gate first, and I have to go and boil medicine for my mother first. ”
Without waiting for Xiao Zi to nod, the Ninth Prince quickly ran to the small kitchen. Xiao Zi, who stayed in place, couldn't calm down for a long time, she opened the medicine bag that was hidden in the cuffs just now, pinched her clothes with trembling hands, and kept echoing the last words of the second princess in her ear:
Put this medicine bag into the medicinal soup boiled by the ninth brother today, otherwise you will be careful about the lives of your children!
The cold words echoed over and over again, she was almost unsteady, the coughing sound of the concubine kept coming out of the room, she looked at her eyes wide and confused, put away the medicine bag after a while, wiped away the tears that were about to flow out of her eyes, and silently thought in her heart: The master is sorry, the ninth prince is sorry, I'm sorry......
I don't know how long later, there was a knock on the door outside the door, and when she opened the door, she looked delighted, "Seventh Prince? ”
"Did Xiao Jiu come back from collecting medicine?" The man who came was a young man of fifteen or sixteen, followed by an attendant, who was helping him. His face was pale, and he was short of breath when he spoke, and at first glance he knew that he was a young man who was riddled with illness.
"I'm back, I'm boiling medicine! The slave went to call the Nine Princes. ”
"No need, I'll go over directly, you still watch, if someone from Feixu Palace comes over, notify us immediately."
Xiao Zi responded, but she was nervous in her heart. Seventh Prince, the people of Feixu Palace have already come, and they have used the lives of the slave's whole family to threaten each other, what should the slave do!
The seventh prince, a master and a servant walked towards the inner palace, and sure enough, there was smoke rising not far away, he quickened his pace, provoked his anger, coughed a few times, and before he reached the kitchen, he alarmed the people who were cautiously boiling medicine inside.
The ninth prince walked out of the kitchen door, and when he saw that it was his seventh brother, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and then ran into the kitchen.
"Xiao Jiu now sees that Seventh Brother doesn't even say hello?" Someone came in and quipped.
"Seventh brother, don't make trouble, I'm boiling medicine for my mother! When I heard the voice just now, I thought those people were running again. He sniffed carefully at the smell wafting from the pot and carefully adjusted the size of the fire.
"You've found the mountain centipede?" The Seventh Prince asked in surprise.
"Well, I caught it in the cave in the wilderness this morning, and I just happened to run into it?" He lied naturally, he did go up to the mountains to look for this herb, but he found no trace after searching all over the place, so he had to stretch out his hand to the Heavenly Master.
"It's not hurt, is it?" The seventh prince stepped forward and looked at him carefully for a moment, and saw that he had a pair of dark eyes on his immature face, he was in good spirits, and his face was a little dirty and muddy, and he gave him a smile back, "No, it's just a broken hand, it's not in the way, I've been drugged myself." ”
"Xiao Jiu, you're working too hard like this, Seventh Brother still moved a little slave to call you, right?"
"Don't, I'm not at ease when others boil medicine."
"But you are picking up medicine and boiling medicine like this, and your body will definitely not be able to endure it, how about Seventh Brother give you the golden slave?" The seventh prince glanced at the golden slave beside him, the golden slave's eyes were a little aggrieved, but he didn't dare to show it too obviously, the seventh prince glared at him, and the golden slave turned his head and smiled flatteringly at the ninth prince: Please the ninth prince, don't choose a slave!
There is now only a core concubine, a ninth prince and a girl Xiaozi left in this Qingnian Palace, which is cold and deserted, and is not welcomed, so Jin Nu is naturally reluctant to come. Even the seventh prince of his own family is not favored, but he still has a powerful mother's family, and Qingnian Palace is far behind.
"Jin Nu is a person from Seventh Brother's side, and he can't be moved away at will." The ninth prince naturally knew that the golden slave was unwilling, and he could think of it with his fingers, who else would like to come to his deserted Qingnian Palace now? "Brother Qi, you are not in good health, Jin Nu must stay by your side to serve! It's just me and my mother on my side anyway, and it's hard to manage if there are too many people to serve, so don't worry about it. ”
The seventh prince sighed secretly, he knew that he was unwilling, he mentioned it more than once, thinking that Xiao Zi would definitely not be able to take care of him alone, and now seeing that his ninth brother is busy like those slaves every day, how can he feel good? However, he is just a powerless prince, among many brothers and sisters, he can't win the favor of his father at all, and his body is congenitally deficient, if he wants to help Xiao Jiu, he just has more than enough heart and not enough strength.
Jin Nu looked at his master's gloomy expression, and glanced at the nine princes who were looking at the fire, one was willing to guard, and the other was unappreciative, he felt a little uncomfortable, and the master always put a hot face against other people's cold butts. The nine princes have nothing, and they are excluded by the people in the palace, and the big and small disasters continue every day, I really don't know why the seventh master comes to visit every day, even if the core concubine has some small relationship with the family, she doesn't have to run so hard, in case this ninth prince provokes a big incident of beheading one day, will the seventh prince also suffer from it?
However, didn't the master fall in love with the face of the Ninth Prince? Thinking of this, Jin Nu frowned, and looked at the two brothers and masters carefully, it seems that they are really a good match! But it seems that his own prince is more courageous, the ninth prince is too weak, and his face is good-looking, but can this be eaten?
"Seventh brother? You say, "Isn't this herb of mine working?" The mother's illness has not been able to heal? Xiao Jiu looked a little melancholy, staring at the fire, and the light of the fire could not penetrate his dark eyes.
The Seventh Prince's eyes were gentle, "Xiao Jiu, you should never doubt your ability to use medicine. Don't forget, Seventh Brother and Aunt Xin were able to extend their lives because of you, if you hadn't taken Seventh Brother as a drug tester back then, Seventh Brother would have died long ago. Aunt Xin's illness has lagged behind only because the medicinal materials have been uneven, and now that she has found all the medicinal materials, Aunt Xin will definitely be able to recover quickly, don't worry too much. ”
Jin Nu's eyes flashed: Yes, the master's life seems to depend on this nine princes. However, the situation is different now, and the Ninth Prince is a disaster.
"I hope so, I hope that the mother concubine will get better as soon as possible after drinking the medicine. By the way," Xiao Jiu seemed to remember something, and looked back at the Seventh Prince, "I borrowed the book of the Seventh Brother a few days ago, and I lost one of it this morning, it was too dark in the cave, and I couldn't find it." "That's because I lost it while running away on the street.
"Is it Bug Collection? If you lose it, you lose it, this book is still there, don't regret it. ”
Jin Nu squinted at his master: Master, are you sure there is more? How did we hear that this "Insect Collection" is a unique book! Earlier, you refused to give it to you even when your master asked for it?!
