Chapter 121: I Want to Live a Good Life with My Lady!
Seeing him looking at herself dumbfounded, Jian Ying rolled her eyes angrily, "What are you looking at, haven't you seen a flower face?" โ
The cliff was full of pine trees, hay, and jutting rocks, and she had no time to look at her face as she fell, and she was scratched many ways.
I didn't feel anything when it was too cold just now, but now that I have a warm air, my face is a little hot, and the stinging pain is unbearable.
She didn't have to look in the mirror, she also knew that she didn't look very good at this time. Fortunately, the wounds are not deep, and if you take care of them carefully, you will not be disfigured.
Zhou Shu didn't say a word, took out a wet handkerchief from his sleeve, wrung it out vigorously, and slowly wiped away the blood oozing from the wound for her.
"Lady, you have suffered." His eyes were full of distress.
When Jian Ying saw him like this, the anger in her heart dissipated inexplicably, and she asked instead, "Have you seen Aunt Su?" Did she give birth? โ
"I gave birth to a girl." Zhou Shu replied briefly.
As soon as he said that something had happened to Jian Ying, he left Su Xiulian behind, and he didn't know if she was dead or alive now.
He didn't want to worry her about Su Xiulian's matter, so he deliberately changed the topic, "Now that the second watch has passed, when we are rescued and return to the city, the city gate will have been closed long ago." The call to the door in the middle of the night is bound to alarm many people.
There are several Zhuangzi outside the city, and one of them is not far from here. It's not appropriate for the lady to go back to the palace at this time, so let's go to the village to live for a while. When the injury is healed, it is not too late to go back. โ
Jian Ying understood what he meant, but she was afraid that she would go back with a flowery face that would be too reverie and make people point fingers and gossip. More is better than less, she also wanted to hide for a few days, so she nodded and agreed.
"Where's Monkey Kui? Is he okay? โ
The four guards were the ones she had seen put down, and she was afraid that they had all died as honorably as the coachman. Yuan Fang She saw it, and there was only one monkey who didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that I hurt my foot when I was dragged away by a horse." Zhou Shu replied, "I asked someone to send him down the mountain." โ
Monkey Kui was full of guilt because Jian Ying was under his nose, and he kept holding back his silence, and he couldn't stand the pain halfway through and fell down, and the injury became more and more serious.
He is full of Jian Ying, where can he take care of others? He sent a guard to send Monkey Kui back the original way, and Hui would arrange the rest of the matter.
Jian Ying breathed a sigh of relief, "Those guards and coachmen ......"
"They are considered martyrs, the palace will bury them, and then give their families a sum of money, don't worry about others." Zhou Shu said, seeing that the blood on her face was oozing out again, he leaned over to wipe it off for her.
Jian Ying looked at him steadily, thinking that after living for two lifetimes, she would probably only meet such a person who jumped off the cliff for her without hesitation. Although the process is far less romantic than what is shown on TV and written in the book, and it can even be said that the wolf bรจi is extreme, it can be regarded as thrilling.
It's a pity......
She sighed softly and closed her eyes.
Zhou Shu didn't know what she was sighing about, and looked at her suspiciously, "Lady, what's wrong?" โ
Jian Ying didn't open her eyes, "If this kind of thing happens again next time, don't jump with it again."
Righteousness and courage are not something that anyone can do, first of all, you must have the ability to protect yourself. Otherwise, he won't be able to save people, and he will take his own life and turn a good conversation into a tragedy of two corpses. โ
For the first time since falling to the bottom, Zhou Shu showed a smile on his face, "I thought I would never hear the lady say these strange things again." โ
"What's wrong? This is a truth that has been tested by countless lives. Jian Ying muttered in her mouth, only to feel that she was roasted by the fire, and the wet clothes on her body were steaming, and the hot flashes were unbearable. His back was very cold, and his wet and hard clothes were clinging to his flesh and skin, and he was cold and biting.
He stretched out his hand to Zhou Shu, "Come, help me turn to the B side." โ
Zhou Shu understood and hurriedly helped her turn over. Seeing her movements touching the wound, she gasped in pain. Knowing that this was not the way to go, he got up and went out again, gathered a lot of firewood and came back, and lit a fire in front of her, on the right and left.
Because he didn't know when Qiu Chengming and they would be able to come down, he took off his outer robe, wrung out the water, and hung it at the entrance of the cave. Then he moved another fire, keeping out the wind on one side and drying it on the other.
This is the method he learned from Xiao Zheng when he went hunting, and it is said that he can do it faster.
When the clothes were half dry, they were handed over to Jian Ying, and asked her to take off the clothes on her body as much as possible, wring them out one by one, and put them at the entrance of the cave to roast them slowly. He wrapped a handkerchief in snow and helped her put it on her injured ankle.
Jian Ying originally thought that he was just a young master who was not diligent and did not distinguish between grains and grains, but watching him work in an orderly manner from the side, she was a little impressed by him. She might not be able to light at least a few fires without any smoke.
"When I was younger, I thought about being a doctor." Zhou Shu had nothing to say.
Jian Ying's heart moved, "Because of your mother?" โ
"Not really, I've had this idea a while ago." Zhou Shu said with a smile, "After the mother concubine died of illness, I didn't want to think about it.
What can you do if you become a doctor? There are still incurable diseases, and people will still die if they deserve to die. โ
Jian Ying was a little melancholy from his tone, and deliberately quipped: "I didn't expect you to be quite sentimental, except to be a doctor, you have no other ideals?" โ
"Yes." The smile on Zhou Shu's face suddenly dissipated, "Find out the truth about the death of the concubine." โ
Jian Ying fell silent.
Although she didn't ask carefully, she had somewhat guessed that the death of the first princess was inseparable from King Ji'an, the Fang family, and even Zhou Han. The day he finds out may be the day when he turns against his relatives.
She didn't want to persuade him not to pursue it, she knew what it was like to be suspicious. She didn't interfere with his position, she and he just took what they needed and lived purely together.
What's more, there is also a little Liu'er who is secretly eyeing him, waiting for an opportunity to usurp power.
She is not so easy to bully, even if she leaves the palace one day, she is tired of wanting to change places, and she will never be forced to leave.
She just doesn't want to give her feelings from the bottom of her heart and lungs before the matter is settled, and she always has to leave a glimmer of room for herself, especially for Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu probably felt that his topic was a little out of place, and smiled apologetically at her. Feeling that the snow in the veil had melted a little, he got up and went out and came back with a new ball.
"Lady, you said that I started studying medicine now, will it be too late?"
As he said this, he lowered his eyes and did not look at her.
Jian Ying couldn't figure out his mind for a while, and it was not good to dampen his enthusiasm, "If you want to learn, you can learn, what is the time or night?" But why do you suddenly want to study medicine again? โ
"I didn't have anything to worry about before, and I didn't have anything to do all day long, but now I ......," he looked up at her, "I want to live a good life with my wife, and I always have a sample to be around and support my family." โ
A strange feeling rose in Jian Ying's heart, and she looked at him with her eyes slightly wide, "Zhou Shu, should you ......?"
"Second young master, second young lady......"
A shout came from outside the cave, interrupting her speech.
Zhou Shu stared at her, got up and strode out, "We're here!" โ
