Chapter Ninety-Two: Getting Back Together
"Gege, stop practicing, rest." The cuckoo grabbed the eagle and persuaded.
The pain in her hand couldn't stop her in the slightest, and Ruoyu gritted her teeth and pushed the cuckoo away, pulled the bow again, and pushed harder, harder, "whoosh" - hit the bull's-eye.
"Gege!" The cuckoo kept staring at Ruoyu's hands, which were already scarred, and no matter how good the ointment in the palace was, it couldn't make the injury heal immediately, not to mention that Gege practiced for several hours a day, and the medicines didn't have much effect at all. This time she used force, but she finally made her hands bloody, yellow, yellow, red and red, and she was annoyed when she looked at it.
The cuckoo said that he would not let Ruo Ying practice target shooting again, so he hurriedly pulled Ruo Ying aside and sat down, skillfully dismantled the gauze on Ruo Ying's hand, cleaned it, applied medicine, and then wrapped it with new gauze.
"Gege, just listen to the slave's advice, if you continue to practice like this, your hands will be wasted!" Du Juan is anxious, she doesn't know what happened to her own Gege recently, if she talks about practicing shooting targets, she has practiced every day before, but she has never seen such a thing as these days, and she doesn't care if she hurts her body, it seems that she is stunned.
Ruoyu looked at the busy cuckoo in front of him, and suddenly sighed, what are you doing? Hurt yourself, and make the cuckoo worry, look at the current wolf bèi!
Seeing that the bandaging was done, Ruo Ying said softly: "I won't practice today, help me prepare hot water, I'll wash and change my clothes." β
Ruo Eagle's hand is like this, it can't be washed, although it is embarrassing, it can only be helped by the cuckoo. The cuckoo was rubbing her back, and Ruo Ying said casually: "It's been a long time since I've eaten the sand chicken you made, is it okay to eat it at night?" β
I couldn't hear the cuckoo's movement for a long time, and Ruolu called again, only to get the cuckoo to give a low "um". Listening to the sound that was not quite right, Ruoyu turned around and saw that the cuckoo's eyes were red and there were tears.
"What's going on?" Ruoyu was startled, and hurriedly stretched out his right hand to wipe the cuckoo's tears, but found that his right hand was wrapped in gauze, and although his left hand was also injured, he could still use it, so he reached out to wipe his tears for the cuckoo.
"Gege, let's not compare ourselves with the Ninth Master, right? I don't know what the Ninth Master thinks, he has come up with such a ridiculous method, look at your arms and legs, where is it not blue and purple, red and swollen? Now that you still hurt your hands, if you continue to practice, how can these hands be good? The cuckoo's tears crackled and fell, and he sobbed.
Ruo Ying knew that she felt sorry for herself, and patted the cuckoo's hand and said: "Good cuckoo, you have been with me for a few days, and you also know my temperament, if I have no choice, I don't want to abuse my body like this." Relieved, Ruo Ying pretended to be relaxed and said, "Don't cry, these are all small injuries and pains, it's not a big deal, think about those gentlemen, the soldiers of the Eight Banners, which one is not more serious than me?" β
Seeing Ruo Eagle's comparison, the cuckoo was not happy or angry for a while, and pouted: "You are Gege, how can you compare yourself to those men who are crawling and rolling on the battlefield?" Even if it's a master, it's a man's body, and he grew up on a horse when he was young, which is Gege's daughter's body? β
Seeing that the cuckoo smiled, and knew that the cuckoo listened to his own words, Ruoyu smiled and said: "No matter who I compare it with, since I should play this game, I can't give up halfway, and this is not about me alone." Good cuckoo, don't make a noise in front of my brother, when this matter is over, I promise that I will definitely raise my body better than before! β
The cuckoo was also the first to see Ruoyu's body like this, and he was distressed and panicked for a while, but now he asked Ruoyu to persuade him like this, and he also understood. Distressed is distressed, and she also knows her own temper, so she has to nod her head in response, just thinking about how to make some internal and external medicine soup for Ruoyu every day, so that she can recuperate her body more.
The deadline agreed with Brother Jiu was approaching, and the people of Zartu looked at Ruoyu's riding and archery kung fu, and also nodded in praise, sighing that it was not easy for her to practice kung fu to such an extent in three months. But looking at Ruo Ying's tired face, he was also distressed as an elder brother, when Ruo Ying turned to Prince Kang's mansion for help, it was only for the trip outside the Sai in May. A few people discussed, but also figured out some of her thoughts, if the eagle did not grow up in the palace since childhood, riding and shooting is not at all the foundation, but this sister is really strong, it stands to reason, she just came back, and it is her daughter's family, it is understandable that she will not ride and shoot down, but if the eagle prefers to be good at riding and shooting within three months, it is really difficult.
After a few decisions, this burden was handed over to the third child who was the best in riding and archery kung fu. Later, I heard that this girl had asked for archery kung fu from the thirteenth elder brother, and tried her skills, but they were impressed, and the arrow was not missing, and the thirteenth elder brother's kung fu was really good.
After getting the affirmation of several elder brothers, Ruo Ying had a little bottom in his heart, and asked someone to give a message to the thirteenth elder brother, so that he could come over on time. Seeing that the thirteenth elder brother nodded, Ruo Ying really made up her mind, and she didn't expect to win against the ninth elder brother, as long as she had a draw, she would be considered successful.
It's been less than ten days, and if you are more diligent and practice. And Ruoqing there, every time she thought of Ruoqing's attitude, Ruoqing felt irritable in her heart, she didn't know what happened to Ruoqing, since she came back from her house that day, she deliberately delayed it for a few days, estimating that even if there was really something, it should be over, so she went to the Nine Elder Brothers' Mansion. But who knows, she actually disappeared behind closed doors!
If it's just once or twice, it's like this every time, no matter how big the eagle's heart is, it can't help but be suspicious. She once probed the wind at the tenth elder brother, and there was nothing big in the ninth elder brother's mansion, even if she asked the fourteenth elder brother and the sixth sister, it was the same result, which is strange, what is wrong with Ruoqing?
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, Ruo Ying while stepping up the practice of riding and shooting, while worrying about Ruoqing's attitude, she eats very little every day, not that she doesn't want to, but when she sees the food, her heart is depressed, and she can't take a few bites to put off her chopsticks. The cuckoo saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, thinking of a way to let Ruoyu eat two more bites, but it never worked. As a result, in the past ten days, Ruoyu has lost more weight than in the previous two months, and the whole person has lost so much that it is distressing.
If it is in modern times, Ruo Ying is not sure how to be happy, although she is not fat, every summer comes, but she also wants to lose a few pounds and look better in clothes. But now, whether she lost ten pounds or eight pounds, she couldn't arouse any interest.
The venue of the competition is set in the racecourse on the outskirts of Beijing, when the eagle arrives, the idle people have already been cleared out, and the eyes are familiar, even a group of attendants, but also a few masters often follow, seeing that the eagle is coming, busy to greet her.
"Who's coming first?" It's not very comfortable to get up this morning, maybe because I didn't sleep well last night, like stepping on cotton, and I didn't eat two bites of breakfast.
"Let's be together, then." Brother Nine is not like her.
"Ruoyu, look at your face is not very good, is your body uncomfortable, why don't you change the day?" Ten Brother Dao.
Chong Ten Elder Brother smiled, Ruo Ying Haha said: "Competing with the Ninth Master to try riding and shooting, I will inevitably be nervous, it will be fine after a while, don't worry about the Tenth Master." β
Seeing Ruo Yu say this, the tenth elder brother said "be careful" and stepped aside.
turned over and got on the horse, clean and beautiful, Brother Jiu hooked the corners of his mouth.
"Drive-" shouted in unison, and the two rode out together.
How is the riding skills of the ninth elder brother, if the eagle didn't know before, today he is taught, he only knew the riding skills of the thirteenth elder brother before, although the ninth elder brother is not as good as him, but he is also a leader. Also, among Kangxi's sons, even if they are arrogant and domineering like the prince, not to mention those annoying ones, they are also genuine all-rounders.
Thinking of this, Ruoyu became more and more cautious.
On the field, two figures, one purple and one orange, were tightly biting forward, and under the field, several princes had their own thoughts.
The tenth elder brother sighed for a while, stomped his feet for a while, and there was no quiet, and the eight Belle and the fourteenth elder brother on the side seemed much calmer. Babel put his hands behind his back, his expression was as usual, and his clenched fists seemed to reveal a little thought. The fourteenth elder brother stood on the other side of Babel, staring at the two people on the field with deep eyes like an eagle falcon, although he was impressed by the speed of the progress of Ruoyu's riding and archery skills, but the level of the ninth brother Ruoyu didn't know, but he knew very well that he was afraid that Ruoyu wanted to win this bet, it was really not easy.
"If you are careful-" At the door, the fourth Belle and the thirteenth elder brother had just arrived, and they saw that the body of the eagle who shot an arrow was a little unstable on the back of the horse, and the thirteenth elder brother couldn't help but remind him.
If you hear the voice of the thirteenth elder brother in a trance, you are busy straightening up, and you didn't see the thirteenth elder brother before the competition, could it be that you heard it wrong? She couldn't care about that much, so she was busy focusing on the competition.
Hearing the shout of the thirteenth elder brother, the eight Belles also saw the two people who had just come in, and the two groups of people greeted each other and looked at the arena again.
At this time, both of them have shot two arrows, both of which hit the bull's-eye, and if they win or lose, they should land on the last tail.
Seeing that Ruo Ying accelerated his horse's speed and pulled out the tail of the arrow, the ninth elder brother caught up, and I don't know what he said on Ruo Ying's side, Ruo Ying's horse slowed down and stopped. Then Ruoyu lowered his head, and the hand holding the bow and arrow gradually drooped.
It is rare for Brother Jiu to show such an uninhibited smile, hit the horse to meet the target, and with an arrow, he hit the bull's-eye - beautiful! With a whistle, Brother Jiu rode back to Ruo Ying.
"I won." Brother Jiu smiled proudly, charming as a fox.
Ruo Yu tilted his head and looked at Brother Jiu fixedly, and then his lips slowly outlined a trace of arc, and his lips opened lightly: "Who said that?" β
"Driving-" The big green horse galloped on the horse farm again, carrying the orange figure on its back, and suddenly became the wind.
"Whoosh-"
"Good!"
"Beautiful!"
"It's wonderful!"
As the third feather arrow in Ruoyu's hand drilled into the wooden target, the feather arrow originally nailed to the bullseye had been split into two, and then landed leisurely, telling its unwillingness.
Things happened so quickly that Brother Jiu didn't see the orange figure flying in front of his eyes, and the cheers outside the arena had pulled him back to reality, and when he looked at it again, there was still a feather arrow nailed to the bull's-eye, but it was no longer his own.
Without waiting for others to get close, Brother Jiu pulled his horse over, stopped beside Ruo Ying and said, "Ruoqing has been refusing to see you recently, she treats you like this, and you are still willing to compete for her?" β
Ruo's eyes are bright, and her smile is undiminished: "Since I regard her as a confidant, I should treat her with all sincerity and never give up." β
"What a 'heart and soul, never give up', if you see her in the future, I wish you as you say!" Brother Jiu snorted and said, "You won today's competition, and I will keep my promise." β
"At this point, Ruo Ying never doubted that the Ninth Master couldn't do it." Ruoyu dismounted with a smile, and as soon as his feet landed, he stumbled a little, but fortunately he called the thirteenth elder brother who rushed over to help him.
"Why can't you stand steadily, your face is not very good, you are sick?" The thirteenth elder brother held Ruo Ying and looked at it.
"It's okay, probably I won the competition by luck, and I'm a little excited." Ruo Ying smiled and shook his head, standing on his own. She has a hundred and a thousand uncomfortable bodies, but she wants to see Ruoqing, and this reason is enough for her to support her to go to the Ninth Elder Brother's Mansion.
"Hurry up and go back and rest, these three months have been hard for you." Although others know that she is not easy, but only the thirteenth elder brother watched her come step by step, shooting targets, riding horses, and even falling off the horse several times, she is a girl!
Ruo Ying shook his head again and said, "I want to go to the Ninth Master's Mansion, I haven't seen Ruoqing and Feng'er for a few days, and I think strangely." β
Seeing Ruo Ying like this, several people were unwilling, how could Ruo Ying be stubborn, in the end, let her go back to the house with Brother Jiu.
If Qing doesn't see her, she knows, if Qing hides from her, she also knows, but she doesn't understand where she provoked her, if Qing doesn't say it, she always has to ask to understand.
followed Brother Jiu all the way into Ruoqing's courtyard, and a girl saw Ruoyu following behind, and wanted to enter the house, so Brother Jiu shouted to stop.
Inside the house, Ruoqing was holding Feng'er and teasing, although there was a smile on her lips, her brows were frowning, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
The maidservant girl in the house asked Brother Jiu and Ruoyu to say goodbye, and when Ruoqing heard the sound, all kinds of emotions flashed in her eyes, making Ruoyu unable to grasp it all of a sudden. After that, only the cold remained.
Brother Jiu said a few words, left first, and took a room of maidservants, leaving only Ruo Ying and Ruoqing in the house, as well as Feng'er in the bed.
"Ruoqing, what has happened these days, or has I done something wrong, why have you been refusing to see me?" The friendship with Ruoqing made Ruoqing not beat around the bush, and what responded to her was only the aftermath that remained in the air.
"Ruoqing, if you are annoyed with me, and explain it to me, don't be stuffy like this, you feel uncomfortable in your heart, and I can't figure out the doorway, the two of us, do you have to be like this?" Ruo Eagle came up in a hurry, his eyes were a little black, and he sat down with the back of the chair on the side.
"Ruoqing, if you don't like me to come to see Feng'er often, if I don't look at it, Feng'er is raised by you, and no one can snatch it." Ruoqing is an ancient woman, and she has never given birth to an heir for Brother Jiu since she entered the house, so she regards Feng'er more than anyone else, and her words and deeds are afraid that she will be frightened, for fear that she will take Feng'er away.
Hearing Ruo Eagle's mention of Feng'er, Ruoqing finally reacted, she saw that Feng'er had been coaxed to sleep, so she straightened up, looked at Ruo Eagle, and said: "Ruo Eagle's aphorism is heavy, you are a royal Gege, and the concubine is just a concubine, so you don't dare to ask questions with Gege, let alone forgive or not." It is a great honor for the concubine to be respectful and noble, but I am afraid that the concubine will not be well entertained, so Gege should please go back. β
"In this way, you are really annoyed with me, but for what, you give me a clear word, even if I can't ask for your forgiveness, let me know a reason." Ruoyu really can't figure it out, how could Ruoqing, who was virtuous and gentle in the past, say these mean words today, what kind of disgust made her willing to lower her value and speak ill of herself?
But Ruoqing regained his appearance, sat on the edge of Feng'er's bed, only lowered his head and coaxed Feng'er, and refused to respond to Ruo'er's words and a half.
Ruo Ying thought that Ruoqing acted like this, if it was not a last resort, it was really something wrong that he had done, and he asked Ruoqing in a soft tone. Half an hour has passed, and an hour has passed...... Ruo Ying from the first acquaintance of the two to go to the red wall, from the palace to the reunion at the beginning of the year, one by one, as well as Ruoqing's purse, Ruo Ying's rabbit handkerchief, and the two of them to help Huai Ying made all kinds of efforts, happy and sad, laughing and sad, she was afraid of falling behind.
The sun was sinking in the west, and I don't know when, a maidservant girl came in and put on the lamp, and when the eagle saw the flame, it seemed that there were several overlapping branches, closing and separating again, and she was dizzy.
Don't open her eyes, Ruo Ying said softly: "Ruoqing, when you and I first entered the palace, I regarded you as a confidant, over the years, I have met all kinds of people in the palace, but no one has been able to let me erase you from my memory, what about you?" Are you really going to break this friendship with me? Why don't you even tell me sΓΉ? Leaned forward and grabbed Ruoqing's hand, Ruoqing said eagerly, "Ruoqing, if you have any difficulties, tell me, I know your temperament, and I will never do something for no reason, don't be bored in your own heart, okay?" β
A tear fell on the back of Ruoqing's hand, Ruoqing's hand trembled slightly, and saw Ruoqing's cheeks falling with tears, but he didn't raise his hand to wipe it, but didn't look over his head, and said fiercely: "The friendship of the past is all young, if Ruoyu Gege don't take it to heart anymore." β
Ruo Ying was stunned on the spot, and he didn't even know when Ruoqing's hand was withdrawn.
Somehow, Feng'er suddenly started crying, Ruoqing hurriedly got up and picked Feng'er out of the bed, and kept coaxing.
Ruo Ying got up in a daze, turned around, and walked to the door, and when Ruoqing coaxed Feng'er and raised his eyes, Ruo Ying had already walked to the door.
"If the eagle ......" the ghost sent the gods, she called out, but she didn't know what to say next.
Because of this sound, Ruoyu paused, but he didn't hear the following for a long time, and finally aroused a self-deprecating laugh, put his hand on the door latch, Ruoyu didn't look back, and said softly: "I don't blame you." β
The doors and windows were closed, but the three words seemed to be brought by a gust of wind, Ruoqing was stunned suddenly, and then strode over, hurriedly grabbed Ruoyu, and said, "Don't go." β
Ruo Ying looked down at the hand that was grabbing his cuffs, and he didn't take it away after a long time, and finally slowly raised his head to look at Ruoqing.
"Don't go." Ruoqing saw Ruoyu looking at himself, and hurriedly spoke again.
Smiling, Ruo Ying said softly: "I've been sitting for a long time today and I'm a little tired, I'll come to see you tomorrow at noon." β
"A word?" Ruoqing also saw that Ruoqing's face was getting worse and worse, and she couldn't bear to keep her anymore.
"It's a deal." If the eagle bows his head slightly.
As soon as he fastened the door, Ruo Eagle's legs were weak, and he slid down the door. When the maidservant girl outside the house saw it, she hurried forward. Ruo Ying was busy stopping the voices of several people, for fear that Ruoqing would hear it.
"Help me out of the yard." Ruo Yu struggled to spit out a few words.
"But Gege, your body is so weak, it's better for the slave to tell the master." Silver Bead Road.
"Help me out, don't let Ruoqing know!" Lowering his voice and throwing out a sentence stiffly, Ruo Ying shook his head, trying to keep himself awake.
Yinzhu saw that Ruoyu insisted, and ordered two maidservants to stay in the courtyard to serve, and he led another maid out with Ruoyu in his arms.
"Gege, you look like this, I'm afraid you can't walk, the slave is still ......" Yinzhu walked towards the door of the mansion with Ruo Ying, but when he looked down, he saw that Ruo Ying had fainted at some point, and shouted in a lost voice, "Gege? Ruo Gege! β
