Chapter 210: Melancholy
The snow has been falling for several days, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, there is no intention to stop, these days Qi You is as he said, almost resting in the palace, has not come to visit Xibao for four or five days, Xibao can't help but feel a little sad in his heart, this will be wrapped in a thick mink hair cloak standing on the edge of the promenade to watch the snow.
It's not so much to look at the snow as to be in a daze, the white ape has been standing with him for almost an hour, and his eyes are almost gone, if it weren't for a small piece of fiery red plum forest in this courtyard, the white ape really can't hold on, after all, it hurts his eyes to see the snow for a long time.
couldn't stand anymore, so the white ape rubbed his hands angrily and said, "Little side concubine, let's go back, you have been standing here for a long time, and you will talk about it again after a while." ”
Xibao said with a melancholy face: "It's too stuffy in the house, and there's no wind outside, it's just snowing, and it's not in the way, this scenery is really good." ”
The white ape thought helplessly: What is the scenery in this courtyard except snow or snow, but after thinking about it, he is still worried: "But you won't get tired after standing for a long time, why don't you sit in the pavilion for a while, you can see the snow scene in the garden there." ”
Xibao was tightly wrapped by Zhang's and Wenqin, leaving only his little head outside, and holding a small stove in his hand, but it would not be cold, but after standing for a long time, he felt that his legs were a little numb, and after the white ape reminded him, Xibao said: "It's okay, go to the pavilion." ”
After saying that, he turned around and moved towards the pavilion, and the white ape was protected by the side, because Xibao had not seen Qi You in the past few days, and his heart was bored, so he moved out of the house alone without taking anyone, and there would only be a personal guard of the white ape on the side, but it was also clean.
It's not that Wenqin and Zhang don't want to follow, but Xibao doesn't want them to follow, they really can't help Xibao, so they have to let her, after all, the whole courtyard is safe, and the white ape is not a vegetarian, so they are not worried.
The white ape actually saw that Xibao was not in a good mood, but after all, Xibao was the prince's side concubine, and he didn't want to ask. It's just that Xibao sighed from time to time while watching the snow scene, which made the white ape a little worried: "Concubine Fang, are you okay?" ”
Xibao sat in the pavilion and looked at the falling snowflakes and said, "White Ape, how did you all spend Chinese New Year's Eve?" ”
The white ape was stunned for a moment and said, "We." Well???? It depends on where we are, or if we have a mission at the time. ”
Xibao turned his head sideways and said, "What do you say?" ”
The white ape leaned on the pillar on the side and said with a smile: "Concubine Fang, we are different from you and the prince, we are all people who feed the whole family and are not hungry, this festival or something." We never cared, if we were in the house, the prince would greet us deliberately, and a few of us would just eat and drink and sleep well, but if we were on a mission outside, it would be a matter of where we went, nothing special. ”
Xibao was a little embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were in this situation, that ???"
The white ape scratched his head and smiled: "Concubine You're polite, we've long been used to it." It's really nothing. I, the silver snake and the greedy wolf were very young when they were with the prince, although the identity of the prince is our master, but the prince has never regarded us as slaves, but more like brothers, although we have no relatives, but the prince is closer than relatives, just a small person is used to it, there is no concept of the New Year's holiday. ”
Xibao smiled: "I can see that the prince is very special to you, and you are also very special to the prince." It's really more like a brother, hey, how did you follow the prince? ”
The white ape rubbed his hands and said, "I, yes." I was rescued by the prince ten years ago, and I don't remember much about the previous things, but I remember that it was freezing at that time, and when I curled up on the ground and felt that I was going to die, I saw a white and transparent face, and I will never forget that look in my life. It's so warm, so hopeful, at the time I thought I was back to see the gods, hehe, later woke up and found myself in a courtyard, then I knew that it was the prince who saved me. ”
Xibao tilted his head and said, "Ten years ago, the prince was only a teenager at that time!" ”
The white ape said: "Fifteen years old, the prince was fifteen years old at the time." ”
Xibao continued to ask, "What about the silver snake and the greedy wolf?" ”
The white ape said: "The two of them, I also heard about them after I got acquainted with them later, because they were already there when I woke up, I just knew that they were about the same age as the prince, and they were the two little apprentices of a martial arts master before the prince, as for why they stayed by the prince's side, I don't know very well, but I just know that like me, the prince also has a life-saving grace for them!" ”
Xibao sighed: "I see, so presumably the same is true for Dr. Suwen?" ”
The white ape nodded and said, "It's not the same!" ”
Xibao said: "Why? ”
The white ape said: "Didn't you find that Dr. Su Wen and we are always??" Belch?? How so?? It's a distance! ”
Xibao said: "Is there one? I didn't find out, it's just that the prince once said that Dr. Su Wen is relatively cold. ”
The white ape said: "Well, Su Wen is not only cold, but also can be said to be a monster, he was indeed rescued by the prince, but at that time, it seemed that when the prince was going to the northwest, he passed by near Zhongnan Mountain to save him, at that time Su Wen was almost covered with bruises, only half a breath left, the prince rescued him and took him to the northwest in the team, and since then, Su Wen has been following the prince, and the silver snake and greedy wolf were also with the prince. ”
Xibao was surprised: "Zhongnan Mountain, isn't that a place where immortals come out?" ”
The white ape smiled and said: "Little concubine, have you read too much of the book, how can there be any immortals, Zhongnan Mountain is just a place for Taoist cultivation, and the immortals have not heard of it, but there are divine doctors." ”
Xibao said: "Divine doctor? So Su Wen's medical skills are so skillful, he should be from Zhongnan Mountain? ”
The white ape said: "We also think so, but Su Wen has never said anything about his past, and the prince is not allowed to ask about it, so this is also speculation." ”
Xibao raised his eyebrows and said, "In this way, what's so strange about Su Wen?" ”
The white ape smiled: "He has more strange places, we don't know what Su Wen is like before, but he is cold when he wakes up, I heard them say, Su Wen has been in a state of loss of soul when he first woke up, no one pays attention, and occasionally says a few words to the prince, when the silver snake and greedy wolf in the northwest have not said a few words to Su Wen in a year, anyway, Su Wen will only smile coldly, and everyone doesn't know that Su Wen will know how to heal. I just felt like I saved a strange person back. ”
Xibao held back a smile and said, "You say this, won't he be angry?" ”
The white ape stretched his legs and said, "Who knows, at that time, the silver snake and the greedy wolf did not have much contact with Su Wen, and later there was a tough battle in the northwest border pass. The silver snake and the greedy wolf were both seriously injured, and the military doctors were helpless, but they didn't expect Su Wen to use a pair of silver needles to pull the two of them back from the death line, and at that time everyone knew that he knew how to heal, and he was still very powerful. Since then, Silver Snake and Greedy Wolf wanted to be close to Su Wen, but they were scared out by Su Wen. ”
"Scared out? Why? Xibao said curiously.
The white ape smiled: "This is also what they said from the silver snake, after Su Wen recovered his senses, he was either in the house or making trouble, or he was pulled by the prince to treat the disease and save people, the silver snake They thought that Su Wen cured them, and they should go to express their gratitude, but not long after entering the house, they accidentally touched the things that Su Wen was messing with, and they were frightened by the pile of strange bottles and cans, and they said that it was human bones. The internal organs, and a bunch of flesh and blood that I couldn't see clearly, anyway, I just looked at the hairy ??? Tsk???"
"Huh?? Whining?? Belch! When Xibao heard the human bones, his internal organs suddenly churned in his stomach and retched.
The white ape was startled and said, "Little concubine, are you okay, oops, it's all my fault for saying something open-mouthed, it scared you." ”
Xibao patted his chest and said with a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's just that it's a little disgusting when I hear the human bones, so you don't need to go into details." ”
The white ape smiled embarrassedly: "It's me who didn't pay attention." ”
Xibao took a deep breath before saying, "White Ape, this is also strange. It stands to reason that the silver snake and the greedy wolf are used to following the prince, how could they be scared? ”
The white ape smiled: "You don't know about this side concubine, most of our missions are quick or covert, who has nothing to do with a few corpses to play in the house." Belch??? That one??? Anyway, I haven't seen that kind of posture, and then when the silver snake asked about Su Wen, they were despised by Su Wen for a long time. ”
Xibao laughed and said, "It seems that Dr. Su Wen has a secret." ”
The white ape was stunned for a moment and said: "I don't know about this, anyway, Dr. Su Wen has always been like this, and he can amuse us brothers a lot of times when he is in a good mood, but when he is in a bad mood, none of us dare to disturb, for fear that his injection will make us uncomfortable for several days." ”
Xibao glanced at the white ape and said, "You are all masters of kung fu. It's too much to say that you're afraid of a doctor who has no power to restrain a chicken! ”
The white ape said angrily: "Little concubine, don't be deceived by Su Wen's harmless appearance, he doesn't know martial arts, but he has internal strength, and he has excellent acupuncture skills, in addition to being able to cure diseases and save people, he can also use needles as invisible weapons, if you offend him, you don't know when you will suffer." ”
Xibao said: "Really, no wonder even the prince respects him for three points, it turns out that the prince is also afraid??" Hee-hee??"
The white ape said with a black line: "Where do you want to go, concubine, the prince has a life-saving grace for Su Wen, although Su Wen has a strange temperament, but he is a true man with affection and righteousness, he will not hurt the prince, those few times I was forced by the prince to be anxious, that is, I went back to the house to sulk for a few days, just turn my head." ”
Xibao smiled: "Then he is also fatherless and motherless like you?" ”
The white ape shook his head and said, "This is not clear, we don't dare to inquire about the doctor's private affairs." ”
Xibao nodded and said, "Yes, but now it seems that you have a good relationship." ”
The white ape said: "This is called seeing people's hearts for a long time, we will accompany the prince from birth to death, and the relationship will naturally be good." ”
"Born to die? Do you and the prince have to face danger often, just like last year's cold winter? Xibao was a little surprised.
The white ape hesitated a little and said, "This??? Nor often??? However, the prince is the prince in the end, and there will naturally be a different danger of pressure in a high position, but the situation has been much better over the years, and the little concubine does not have to worry. ”
Xibao sighed and said, "Hey, it turns out that he is so tired!" ”
The white ape smiled slightly: "Little side concubine, the prince is the prince after all, there are too many things that need to be dealt with by him, he is indeed very tired, but ???"
Xibao asked, "But what?" (To be continued.) )
