Chapter 3: Clouds and Fog (7)
"Xun'er......" Mu Qing slept for a day and a night, Xiao Xun had fallen asleep beside Mu Qing's bed, but she didn't sleep deeply, and Mu Qing woke up with a soft scream. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
"Qing'er, are you awake? How does it feel? Does it still hurt? Kaoru asked anxiously.
Mu Qing pulled out a smile and said, "It hurts a little bit, I want to drink water." β
"Wait, I'll pour you water." Xiao Xun poured Mu Qing a glass of warm water, carefully helped Mu Qing up, and fed her water, "You have slept for so long, are you hungry?" I asked the kitchen to make something to eat. Mu Qing asked again after drinking the water.
"A little, but where are we now? How long did I sleep? What time is it? Mu Qing asked.
"We are now in the prince's courtyard, you have slept for a day and a night, and now it is about the time of Mo Yin. I'll go find you something to eat. Kaoru Shino replied.
"Eh, it's better to be later, it's inconvenient to be in the prince's mansion, anyway, it won't be long before it's time to eat. Also, how long is the scar on my arm, is it deep, will it leave a scar? I finally have white and tender skin here. Mu Qing asked with an embarrassed face.
"The scar is about four inches deep, ...... Indeed, it will take a long time for the scar to disappear...... Look at you, you still save the prince knowing that you will cause so much harm to yourself. Xiao Xun said angrily, although Xiao Xun didn't want Yinren to be injured, but he didn't want Mu Qing to be injured.
"If you saw you, you would have pushed the prince away, I didn't think about it that much at the time, the conditioned reflex was like this." Mu Qing pouted.
"Okay, you can sleep a little longer, and I'll settle accounts with you later! Eat when you wake up. β
"Hey! Do you have humanity, you still have to settle accounts with me, really, Bengege is still a life-saving benefactor of the emperor's relatives! Mu Qing joked, Xiao Xun saw that Mu Qing's voice was still relatively neutral, so she also put her mind at ease, tucked the quilt for Mu Qing, and went out to prepare the food list left by the doctor for Mu Qing, so that Mu Qing's wound could heal quickly.
β¦β¦
"Xun'er, you are abusing a patient, there is no meat in the morning, even if there is less oil and water, there are still a few dishes at noon that actually smell of medicine, and I don't know how much medicine I drank in the two hours I woke up." Mu Qing complained.
"These are all medicinal foods left by the doctor for you, eating them can make your wounds heal faster, if you don't want to leave a scar, eat these obediently, avoid spicy!"
"Okay, I'll eat, I hurt my left hand, I can eat it myself." Mu Qing wanted to take the bowl in Xiao Xun's hand by herself, but accidentally pulled her left hand, and Mu Qing snorted coldly.
Xiao Xun hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks and checked Mu Qing's wound, and saw that there was nothing before relieving his heart: "You, you are still restless when you are injured, I was too lazy to feed you when I asked me to feed you, but now you can call me fiercely, why don't you seize the opportunity." β
"Yes, so, if you feed me dinner, I'll send you to bed, look at your two panda eyes."
"Well, okay, I'll sleep in a while, I can really sleep standing now, and I almost cooked your rice just now. What about you, you are also lying on the bed, you are not allowed to do anything, if there is anything, call the maid outside the door, don't pull your arms......" Xiao Xun was still chattering, but was interrupted by Mu Qing, "Okay, okay, I know, are you early?" So nagging, but then you can cook? β
"Naturally, I am accompanied by a maid, are you despising my cooking skills? Really, what's the early change, is it okay for me to call it maternal feelings? β
"Let's not mention the matter of maternal feelings, just say that when we lived together in college, you could still boil instant noodles, tsk, how to find a boyfriend in the future?" Mu Qing complained.
"Say yes and don't talk about it again!"
The two laughed and laughed during the meal, and Xiao Xun settled Mu Qing down so that Mu Qing could lie on the bed, and he was ready to sleep next door for a while.
Xiao Xun walked out but bumped into Yinren: "The slave maid asks the prince for peace." β
"No need to be polite, what about Mu Qing?" Yinren asked.
"I just had lunch, and now I'm resting." Kaoru Shino replied.
"Well, since that's the case, I won't bother, the doctor said that Mu Qing's injury is not a big deal, since she is awake, you can go to sleep for a while, the maids will definitely take care of Mu Qing." Yinren said softly to Shino-Kaoru, who suddenly remembered the violent side of Yinren the day before...... Kaoru Shinohi was stunned for a moment and asked, "How are those people?" By the way, Miyari? β
"Those few people have been handed over to Dali Temple for disposal, and I have taken leave with Huang Ama and Concubine De in the palace, and you can return to the palace in a few days. Eh, what happened that day? I can't remember what happened before Mu Qing was injured. Yinren asked, and Xiao Xun saw that Yinren's eyes were sincere, and his eyes were indeed suspicious, so he comforted: "The prince may be too tired, so there was something abnormal at that time." β
"Perhaps, you can go." The prince smiled lightly.
"Yes."
Xiao Xun and Mu Qing stayed in the Prince's Mansion for five days, and then got into the carriage back to the palace......
Mu Qing returned to Concubine De, but Mu Qing naturally can't work now, in addition to Er Lan, who was brought into the palace, she sent a maid named Zhu'er to wait for Mu Qing, Concubine De said that there was only one Er Lan beside her, and there were few people, so Zhu'er let her stay by Mu Qing's side, Mu Qing was injured, and Concubine De was also busy taking care of Mu Qing, Concubine De really regarded Mu Qing as her own niece and daughter......
"Yinxi has been here for a while in the past few days, and he has also sent the eunuchs around him to ask you a few times in private." Concubine De looked at Mu Qing on the bed with a playful smile, Mu Qing's wound was not yet complete, Concubine De knew that Mu Qing loved to play, and she was afraid that she would be injured again, so she gave a death order to let her stay in bed, and she was afraid that Mu Qing would be bored, so she often came to chat with Mu Qing, but I didn't know whether Mu Qing was bored or she was lonely.
"But it's been a long time since I came back, and I haven't seen him come to me......" Mu Qing muttered in a low voice, only to react after a while, and said stiffly: "It doesn't matter if he comes or not, I don't think about him at all, not at all!" β
"I didn't say you wanted to be Yinxi, are you not recruiting yourself?" Concubine De laughed.
"Anyway, it's not......" Mu Qing said sarcastically.
"The slave maid asks for peace for Concubine De, and greets Gege." Er Lan suddenly ran in from outside the door, and couldn't help but be stunned when she saw her own Gege who was staying on the bed and chatting with Concubine De, she was still so uninhibited when she entered the palace, but fortunately, Concubine De didn't blame her, and she actually entered Gege's house.
"Get up, what's the matter?" Concubine De returned to a more solemn posture, but it was solemn and not unfriendly.
"Back to Niangniang, the eighth master is here." Er Lan was a little embarrassed to say, not that he was interested in Yinxi, but that he was really shy about himself.
"Well, the palace is also a little tired, so I went back to rest, you and Zhu'er take care of your Gege." Concubine De was empathetic and left a private space for Mu Qing and Yinxi, and did not forget to tell the maids to take care of Mu Qing.
"Yes, the slave must take good care of Gege." Er Lan replied with an oath, Mu Qing looked at Er Lan's stupid but seemingly poisonous appearance, a little funny, but also a little moved, except for Xiao Xun and his family over the years, Er Lan is the best for himself, and he will think about everything for himself.
Concubine De walked out, only to hear the voice of Yinxi greeting Concubine De outside the door, and estimated that Concubine De had gone away, so Yinxi entered Mu Qing's house.
Er Lan appropriately closed the door and went out to exchange feelings between the two, although Mu Qing didn't tell Er Lan Ming, she didn't hide it, Er Lan could see it no matter how naΓ―ve she was.
"I'm not well, so I won't give you an invitation." Although Mu Qing said so, she still used "I" in her words, and at first glance, she was angry, a duplicitous woman, but fortunately Kaoru was not there, or she would laugh at herself again.
"Why should you and I care about such a false courtesy, but I didn't go to you in the days you were in the prince's palace, and you were angry?" Yin Xi brushed a strand of broken hair on Mu Qing's forehead behind her ear and asked softly.
"Why?" Mu Qing said stiffly, in fact, that's what she thought in her heart.
"Didn't I ask you why you left the palace with the prince?" Yin Yu asked with a faint smile.
"No, don't get me wrong, I'm just ......" Mu Qing hurriedly explained, but was interrupted by Yinxi, "It doesn't matter, I believe you, I know you love to play, but how did you hurt yourself so carelessly?" Yin Yu asked gently, any girl will fall in the face of such a handsome, rich and powerful man who is so gentle and out of water, right, use it or not? Is there really anyone who can act so well" Anyway, she didn't believe it, Mu Qing comforted her disease, and let Yinxi examine her wounds.
"I asked my ninth brother to find this medicine, and after you heal, apply it to the scar twice a day, and it won't leave a scar after a month." Yinxi took out a bottle of medicine from his sleeve and instructed Mu Qing, Yinxi is indeed a public **, so considerate and subtle, no wonder so many Qing novels regard Yinxi as their first love**, but counting, Yinxi can be regarded as his own **, Mu Qing smirked, it was just Yinxi's next sentence, which made Mu Qing have mixed tastes.
"I heard that the crown prince behaved strangely on the day of his assassination, do you know what happened?" Yinxi asked seemingly casually, but Mu Qing didn't just think about it in her heart, but she was very uncomfortable. Seeing that Mu Qing was silent for a long time, Yinxi asked again, "What's wrong, are you uncomfortable?" β
"Oh...... No, I'm just curious, the prince shouldn't be fine, but he's too tired so he's going to be unusual. Mu Qing replied perfunctorily, but Yinxi was thoughtful. Seeing Yinxi's appearance, Mu Qing pretended to ask casually, "What are you asking for?" β
"Although I am humble, in the end I am a brother with the prince, I didn't save the prince in time as a younger brother that day, and now I have to care about whether the prince is sick." Yinxi is high-sounding, if Mu Qing is just an ordinary palace maid who does not know the government and politics, if Mu Qing does not know so much history and does not know Yinxi's wolf ambitions, she must have believed Yinxi at this time, and felt that he was deeply affectionate, and admired him a little more, but Mu Qing ...... She, knowing everything, knows better than anyone in between......
"Eighth master, it's time to go to the good concubine Niangniang to say goodbye, Fu Jin is still waiting for you at the good concubine Niangniang." The personal eunuch of Yinxi outside the door said. "Well, you go and wait outside the door, I'll be there in a moment." Yin Yu commanded.
Yinxi instructed Mu Qing to take care of herself day by day, but Mu Qing listened harshly at the moment, just perfunctory said that she was tired, and Yinxi tucked the quilt for Mu Qing and went out.
Mu Qing's heart was full of all kinds of emotions, if the word "use" made Mu Qing sad and angry, then the eunuch's sentence just now, "Fu Jin is still waiting for you at the good concubine Niangniang" is a sharp sword, stabbed to Mu Qing's heart, in fact, Mu Qing knew that Kangxi's forty-three years of Yinxi had already married a wife, and there were several girls and concubines, but she was uncomfortable in her heart. And Yinren came to see herself, and she was full of joy, but it turned out that she was covering up for the purpose of asking Yinren about her situation from beginning to end, although Mu Qing also felt that her thoughts might be a little extreme, but she felt that her heart was as uncomfortable as being pinched hard, in such a complicated mood, Mu Qing was sleepy because of the medicine she drank before, and fell asleep deeply.
