"You know that's not what I'm asking about right now. ^_^ Look, book, first, hair, please, to" ^_^ From the moment he found out that Xiaoxing appeared in his dormitory just now, Wang Hong's tone of voice was very gentle, but at this time, his heart fluctuated, and he didn't care whether the palace people guarding outside the dormitory would hear the sound or not, and his voice rose sharply unconsciously, "The sin you received three years ago was originally designed by my idea, and now that the things I ordered you have been done, even if I don't reward you with anything, I will at least find a way to wash away your sin and take you back to me." But why do you say those things? You don't want to come back? ”

His voice reached this point, and finally attracted the attention of several palace people guarding the door of the dormitory, and one of them couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, has something happened?" Do you want to be served? ”

The voice of the second prince Wang Hong immediately came out from the crack in the door, and there was obviously a trace of anger in his tone: "Everyone outside the door, take ten steps back from the palace!" ”

Several palace people trembled when they heard this, and they rarely saw His Second Highness angry, so his anger was also very weighty, and one sentence made the two palace maids and a eunuch outside the palace retreat in one breath. After retreating to the gate outside the main hall, only ten steps were counted, and the three palace people and the guards at the door looked at each other for a while, and only then did they come back to their senses.

There are two walls between the entrance and the inner room of the dormitory, and the people inside cannot be heard from the outside, and the movement outside is the same to the people inside. After hesitating for a moment, the guard on the left side of the door couldn't help but ask with a puzzled expression, "Why did you all come out?" Don't have a vigil today? ”

The eunuch who had withdrawn from the dormitory only shook his head and said nothing.

And the palace maid, who was originally on duty to keep vigil in the inner room of the dormitory today, but was called out after inexplicably holding the lamp, said curiously: "I seemed to hear His Highness talking to someone just now, and then I suddenly looked very angry......

"Oh......" Before the words of the palace maid who held the lamp were finished, the guard who asked the question seemed to understand something and groaned.

Now it's the turn of the palace maid who holds the lamp to be curious. She couldn't help asking, "What the hell are you talking about?" Could it be that His Highness is talking in his dreams? But I have only been out of it for a short time, how can His Highness immediately fall asleep and dream......"

didn't wait for the palace maid to finish speaking. She listened to the guards and eunuchs say in unison: "If you don't know something, just continue to treat it as if you don't know!" ”

The palace maid's eyes shrunk. I really didn't dare to say anything more, but just cowardly muttered a few words in a low voice, and then closed my mouth tightly.

In the inner room of the dormitory, the silent gaze between the second prince Wang Hong and the cloth skirt woman Xiaoxing continued.

After being silent like this for a long time, Xiao Xing slowly raised his head, and did not give any explanation or explanation, but said in a rather sad tone: "Your Highness, don't be angry. Not worth it...... Today's little star is for you, I ...... I can't do anything for you anymore......"

Wang Hong was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he seemed to be able to foresee something extremely bad, his heart froze, he took a deep breath to strengthen his spirit, and then said, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Xiao Xing sighed faintly, didn't speak, just took out a fire fold from his sleeve and blew it in front of his eyes.

Although the light of the fire is not as bright as the triangular glass lamp, it should illuminate a woman's face clearly. That's enough.

And at the moment when the familiar face in front of him became clear, the second prince Wang Hong suddenly stood up from the couch with a shocked look on his face. His habitual pursed lips twitched a few times, but he couldn't say a word.

The face of the woman in front of her is still so thin, so the pointed chin is very delicate; Her eyebrows are still not as graceful as those of ordinary women, but they show a strong temperament; She is still the little star with one eyelid, she looks sincere when she smiles, and she looks serious when she doesn't smile, but she ...... Now she has a square scar on the left corner of her forehead!

The scar was about the size of a jade buckle, and it was distinctly colored......

"How so?" After being stunned for a moment, Wang Hong suddenly stretched out his hands. Grabbing Xiaoxing's thin shoulders that had begun to tremble slightly, a sentence just fell. Then he asked, "Who did it?!" ”

He didn't ask her what caused the scar on her forehead that broke her appearance, but asked directly who did it. The tone was full of the intention of settling accounts with the thief and avenging her for her.

Xiaoxing understood what he meant, and a warm warmth of gratitude suddenly rose in her heart, but she could only sigh again and slowly tell her what happened to her in the north.

Listening to her account of the halfway point, the second prince Wang Hong was already out of breath, and by the time she finished telling all the experiences in the north since she left Beijing for three years, Wang Hong's standing body was already shaky. At this moment, the fire in Xiao Xing's hand had burned out and extinguished, and the room suddenly went dark, and Wang Hong's eyes were suddenly dark.

Xiaoxing is a person who practices martial arts, and her vision is sharper than ordinary people, and her eyesight quickly got rid of the false blindness symptoms caused by the sudden brightness of light, and she saw the figure of the man in front of her swaying, and then fell softly.

"Your Highness!"

Xiao Xing was shocked, shook off the end of the fire fold pinched by his fingertips, and grabbed Wang Hong's arm.

She wanted to hold him, but unexpectedly, when he fainted, he was completely out of strength, and the weight of his body was so heavy that she couldn't support it, and dragged her to the couch together.

Xiaoxing wanted to hold Wang Hong, but she didn't expect that in the end, the situation turned into her carrying her own weight and pressing on Wang Hong's chest, and the two fell on the couch together, making a dull bang.

Listening to Wang Hong's rapid breathing, and feeling his chest rising and falling sharply in front of his chest, Xiaoxing's heart suddenly seemed to be fried on boiling oil, she quickly climbed away from his chest, sat on the couch next to him, and nervously called several times: "Your Highness!" Your Highness! ”

If it weren't for the palace people who stayed in the inner room of the dormitory and were called outside the hall by Wang Hong one step earlier, separated by two walls, those palace people might have broken in immediately when they heard such a movement in the house.

Wang Hong fell on the couch with the weight of Xiaoxing's body, this fall was not easy, the dull pain from his back, and the stinging pain from his injured hand could quickly make him wake up.

However, as soon as he regained his senses, all the things he had just learned from Xiaoxing's account would come to his mind together, making him feel as if he was pressing a big stone on his head, and even breathing would have to use twice as much strength as usual.

Xiao Xing was rubbing his lungs with both hands, hoping that doing so would make his rapid breathing a little smoother. I saw him wake up with his eyes open. She was also a little relieved, and that moment really scared her silly.

Seeing him galloping during the day, she only felt that he was better than before. It seems to be a different person. This change that happened to him made her feel happy. It also made her feel a little lonely, maybe he could live well without her service in the future.

But I didn't expect that as soon as she came back, she made him angry like this again! It was as if he had immediately retreated from his heroic appearance during the day to the state of weakness and infirmity a few years ago.

Could it be that not only does he not need her care now, but if he is not by his side, he can live a healthier and happier life?

A trace of bitterness slipped through Xiaoxing's heart, and the thought of leaving in his heart became even firmer.

And before leaving. For the task he had given him three years earlier, she had to perfect the last step.

Knowing that Wang Hong's mood fluctuated at this time, and he was afraid that he would not be able to hear the news that stimulated his nerves, Xiao Xing silently considered for a moment, classified the news she had found in the north in the past three years, temporarily suppressed the bad news, picked a few things that should make him feel gratified, and said gently: "In the past three years, Xiao Xing has been staying in the north, although he has suffered some hardships. But the harvest is not small. What His Highness wants to know most about that Mr. Lin, Xiaoxing has already ......"

Xiaoxing's words have just come to this point, and they have not yet reached the key point that she thinks is worth rejoicing. I heard Wang Hong suddenly open his mouth and muttered: "It's all my fault, if it wasn't for my idea, you wouldn't have gone to the north, and you wouldn't have met the Northern Goose's rangers, who were taken captive and suffered from a year in prison...... It's all my fault......"

Xiaoxing heard his muttering of self-blame, and there was a pang of pain in her heart at first, but gradually, her eyes became firm. Looking at Wang Hong's somewhat detached eyes, he said seriously: "Your Highness! Have you forgotten who you are? It seems that you have forgotten the thing you have been waiting for and holding on. ”

What she said. The first half of the sentence was asked, and the second half of the sentence was answered for Wang Hong without waiting for the question. This half-questioning, half-self-explained sentence has a subtle meaning. Although it was quite rude, it was more effective than any gentle words and consolation, and immediately reminded Wang Hong of something.

Wang Hong's eyes were fixed, and then he struggled to get up.

Xiaoxing held his shoulders and asked him to sit up, lifted the quilt to cover his lap, and then pulled the two embroidered pillows at the corner of the couch behind him so that he could sit more comfortably, and then she got off the couch and stood only on the side.

After straightening the corners of his hair and clothes, Xiao Xing continued: "Regarding the matter of Mr. Lin, in the first two years when he went to the north, because the burn area on his back was too large, he was very sick, and he was in bed for more than a year to recuperate. After escaping from prison, I lost contact with the messenger with whom I had been in contact, and it was extremely difficult to return to Kyoto from the north, so I simply did not think about the gradual correspondence, but patiently lived near the residence where the gentleman was recuperating, and kept a daily observation. ”

At this point, after a pause in his voice, Xiao Xing bent his arm and took out a booklet from his arms and handed it to Wang Hong with both hands.

Wang Hong took the booklet, his fingertips seemed to be able to touch a little Xiaoxing's body temperature from the cover of the booklet, he didn't open the booklet immediately, but asked slowly: "Tell me briefly, how is Lin Shan's now?" ”

Xiao Xing nodded and continued: "Mr. Lin's physical condition was the most dangerous in the first half of the year when he first arrived in the north, and he really entered the healing period of the burn after half a year. I was freed in October last year, when Mr. Lin was already taking care of his affairs, and by the beginning of the year, his diet and outings were basically normal. ”

Hearing the news, a smile appeared in Wang Hong's eyes, and he said with a sigh of relief: "Great." I knew that with Mr. Lin's ability, how could something happen lightly. ”

As soon as his words fell, there was a muffled sound of "bang" in the room, as if the sound of a fist hitting a wooden plank.

Xiao Xing raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "Someone! ”

After that, she was already keenly aware of the direction from which the sound was coming from, and the stars were staggered under her feet, and the person had already flashed behind a screen at the end of the couch.

Wang Hong was about to block it, but compared to Xiaoxing's agility, he was still a little slower. But. Xiao Xingdi sensed that the direction was right, and there was really a person hidden behind the screen of the four gentlemen splashing ink in the inner room of the dormitory.

For this person. Wang Hong wasn't going to mention it to anyone, but now that Xiaoxing has taken the initiative to find out. It's a little bit of a thing I can't hide.

Before everyone revealed this person's identity to Xiao Xing, this matter is not impossible, Xiao Xing's ability to do things and rigorous behavior he can trust, and the person behind this screen is still a little related to the things that Xiao Xing has investigated for three years when he went to the north.

It's just that this person has a special status, and he thinks it is necessary for him to go there in person. In Xiaoxing's style, if he found a servant in his dormitory who was not in the palace, he had to give that person some flesh and skin pain first.

Wang Hong silently pondered these subtle matters. He quickly turned over and got out of bed, and walked towards the screen with his shoes on.

However, he had only just reached the corner of the screen, and before he could see what was going on, things changed again!

This time, the accident came from outside the dormitory.

Concubine De is here!

According to the royal rules, although the second prince Wang Hong is not the biological son of Concubine De, Wang Hong also wants to serve Concubine De as his mother. What's more, in general, he was actually raised by Concubine De.

I still remember his poor physique when he was a child, and sleeping at night was the most prone to illness and trouble. Concubine De grew up to take care of him. How many nights have you survived.

At that time, Concubine De was in her early twenties, and a woman's most energetic youth was pasted to an adopted son, for Wang Hong. In a sense, Concubine De's kindness to raise him is even heavier than the hardships of his biological mother's pregnancy in October.

Because of what happened during the day, and for several reasons that only she knew in her heart, Concubine De obviously couldn't sleep tonight. In the eyes of others, it is normal for her to worry about her injured husband and her son who has not recovered from his injuries.

Of course, Wang Hong would not have any objections to Concubine De's visit at night, and he should have expected this matter a long time ago. During the day, while riding a horse, he suffered a second split in his hand. When he was rebandaged at the Imperial Doctor's place, the gentleman had a tense face from beginning to end. to show his concern about the hands of the second prince, as well as a faint sense of reproach.

On the face of it. It's just that the palm of the hand was cut by a sharp weapon, but in fact, the wound was too deep and hurt the periosteum of the hand. When bandaging for the first time, the imperial doctor opened the crack and cleaned it, and he could see the white bone joints inside. Such injuries are prone to malignant diseases on the inside, and the outer skin wounds have healed, but the cracks under the skin are suppurating, and the poisonous blood erodes the bones, and it is difficult to heal.

For this superficially simple but secretly sinister external injury, the imperial doctor will never dare to be careless, and at the same time, he is also afraid of taking responsibility. Because of the poor identity, the imperial doctors are unable to say too much to His Royal Highness, but it is also because of an identity reason, they will inevitably report this matter to Concubine De, because it is difficult for His Royal Highness to listen to what Concubine De said.

It's just that Concubine De came at this time, and the second prince Wang Hong was fine, but it was a big taboo for those two people outside the palace!

Xiaoxing and the person hiding behind the screen, no matter which one is seen by Concubine De, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape the disaster. Even the incident that I have been watching for many years will probably be implicated.

will let these two people get into danger, it is caused by their own carelessness, and suddenly I saw the personal maid who had not returned for three years, but found that she had a terrible encounter on her appearance, and he was angry for a while, and he forgot to guard against the outdoors.

Fortunately, after a few years of operation, there are still a few clever people in the Huayang Palace where he lives.

The eunuch outside the gate suddenly shouted: "Concubine De Niangniang has arrived." ”

His voice was loud enough to pass through two walls for the people inside. In order to give the people inside precious time to prepare, he also took a certain risk, and he was not jealous of Concubine De's suspicions, but because he was loyal, it was the master in the palace behind him, not the concubine in front of him with exquisite makeup and gorgeous clothes.

- Xiao Xing's return to Huayang Palace must have been known in advance by a few old people in this palace.

In the face of the emperor's favorite concubine, the closest adoptive mother of the prince in the palace, and the concubine Niangniang, who still faintly has the momentum of being sealed, the palace people who are despicable and slaves have no right to speak, let alone find an excuse to block it. The eunuch just shouted loudly, and his voice was suddenly too high, and he inevitably received ten slaps.

"In the dead of night, there is such noise, disturbing the prince's rest, how did you behave?" The door of the outer hall has been opened, and there is only one door separated from the inner room of the dormitory, and Concubine De's slightly annoyed voice came in a little, "The female official wrote down, and during the day, she will be punished by this inferior slave, and she will be confined for three days, and she will copy the rules of the palace pavilion at night again!" ”

In the inner room of the dormitory, Wang Hong had already walked quickly behind the long screen and saw the little star with a shocked face. As for the man he had hidden behind this screen a few days earlier, he was nowhere to be seen.

Concubine De came, Xiaoxing had already heard the sound outside, and before she could say more, Wang Hong grabbed her wrist, pulled her to a row of wardrobes, swept her eyes, opened one of the cabinet doors, and pushed her in.

Tearing up two sets of robes hanging in a person's closet, Wang Hong closed the cabinet door and walked back to the screen quickly.

Although the outer hall is dozens of steps deep, the horizontal distance from the inner room is only about ten steps, when Concubine De has already walked to the door of the inner room, Wang Hong in the room has just sat on the edge of the couch, and it is too late to take off his shoes and lift the quilt to pretend to be asleep.

Looking at the door of the inner room slowly opening, Wang Hong's eyebrows jumped, and he suddenly remembered the booklet that Xiao Xing had just handed him to record the affairs of the north.

The booklet categorically couldn't be seen by Concubine De, but when he got up and went behind the screen just now, he didn't put it away, I'm afraid it was spread out in a conspicuous place on the couch.
