When the master is right, he is right, and when the master is wrong, he is still right. This is the truth that he must understand as a guard, and although he is a little unwilling, he has to give in. Because there is a difference between dignity and inferiority. This is something he has never endured when he was training as a dark guard. They just need to complete the task and don't need to cater to anyone's preferences.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Nalan Jinxiu thought that his voice was too low just now, and he couldn't hear it clearly, or he felt that his attitude was not sincere enough. Or maybe he was thinking in his heart, how could the master apologize to the guards, what kind of respect and inferiority are different.

"I'm sorry. Her three words this time were crisp and sonorous.

Mu Li was stunned, controlled his desire to look back at her, and lifted her up again, so that she could be more comfortable on her back. Then he calmly replied: "The county lord doesn't need to apologize to his subordinates. ”

"I said angry words in the afternoon, if you just don't go, I won't blame you. Nalan Jinxiu said this, and felt that he was really a little aggrieved as the county lord.

"I know. ”

"And you're going?"

Mu Li didn't speak, but Nalan Jinxiu knew that it was a bit redundant for him to ask. Mu Li knew that she wouldn't blame him if he didn't take the punishment, just like she knew that Mu Li would definitely go, yes. This should be the tacit understanding between them, they don't need to say it so clearly, but they can believe each other.

In the vast sea of people, it is not easy to have a person who trusts each other. Although the beginning of this relationship was unfair, fortunately, Mu Li caught up with a good master, and Nalan Jinxiu also met a good guard. In fact, they should cherish it, after all, this kind of trust is not easy to come by.

Nalan Jinxiu smelled a smell of blood, she was a doctor, and she was particularly sensitive to this smell. Thinking that Mu Li was injured, but still insisting on carrying her, her heart was even more uncomfortable, she said glutinously: "The injury on your back doesn't seem to be light, let's put me down, my feet are not serious, you can walk." ”

"The subordinates are fine. ”

"You must be bleeding, how can you be okay?"

"It's really fine, I used to get injured in training, especially when I was on a mission. This little injury is not an injury to me at all. ”

Nalan Jinxiu listened to what he said, but it was an uncontrollable pain in her heart. No one is born with extraordinary skills, they all start from injury, and then gradually become stronger. Especially for a secret guard like them, even if he didn't say it, she could think that the task he was going to carry out would be very difficult......

She will definitely keep him by her side in the future and let him always be her bodyguard. That way he doesn't have to go on a mission and he doesn't have to face those dangers. She can't always enjoy the protection of others, she has to protect him too. Reciprocating the favor is her principle of doing things.

"Mu Li......" Her voice was a little hoarse, and there was a hint of glutinousness, which sounded particularly soft.

Mu Li couldn't help but soften his tone, no longer returning to his previous coldness, he replied: "The subordinates are here." ”

"I will never punish you in the future, whether you make me angry or not, whether you commit the following crimes, whether you cause me trouble......" She said that this was not enough, and added a sentence that Mu Li remembered for a lifetime, she said: "Whether it is a prosperous era or a troubled era, I will do my best to protect you." ”

She is a soft and weak little girl, and she is okay in her prosperous life, because she has the Zhenbei Wangfu and is protected by her father and brother. If it happened to be a troubled time, she should be the one who needed protection the most! After all, she was weak and delicate, and she was still raised like golden branches and jade leaves.

However, hearing her say such things, Mu Li's heart was still very comfortable. He even felt that he was injured a little bit, it was nothing at all, as long as she could be okay and not be angry with him, in fact, it would be very good. Mu Li thought like this, not realizing how humble his thoughts were now, probably because he was willing!

When he arrived at the Star Picking Tower, Ji Xiang Ruyi saw that Nalan Jinxiu was carried back, so he hurried up and asked with concern: "County Lord, what's wrong with you?

"I'm fine, I just accidentally twisted my foot. ”

Jixiang led Mu Li and asked him to put Nalan Jinxiu on the bed, wanting to take off her shoes and socks for inspection, but hindering Mu Li from still here. She didn't want to drive him out directly, so she only asked Nalan Jinxiu: "County Lord, why don't you take off your shoes and socks for you first, and see if you are seriously injured?"

"Good. ”

Ji Xiang was about to take off, but he saw that Mu Li was still poking motionless at the side of the bed, and he had no intention of leaving. This Mu guard is really, he doesn't have any eyesight at all, Ji Xiang secretly cursed, and finally couldn't help but say to Mu Li: "Mu guard, it's not convenient for you to continue to stay here, let's avoid it first!"

"Avoidance?" Mu Li frowned: "I am a person who practices martial arts, I can correct my bones, I am gone, can you see how the county lord is injured?"

Jixiang was speechless by him, but Ruyi reacted first: "The county lord will naturally look for his mother-in-law." ”

Mu Li thought of those rough mothers-in-law in the palace, none of them had kung fu on their bodies, where did they know how to straighten their bones? I was afraid that they could only rub it, and if they didn't rub it well, it wouldn't be bad, so he couldn't help but ask: "What mother-in-law?"

"You don't have to worry about this, you get out now. ”

Mu Li felt that these two girls were strange today, as if they were inexplicably targeting him. However, after asking for a long time, they did not intend to tell him the truth. He had no choice but to say to Nalan Jinxiu: "County Lord, it's already late at night, and it will be difficult to go out to ask for a doctor at this time, especially good doctors have tempers, if you believe in your subordinates, it's better to let your subordinates show you." ”

Nalan Jinxiu also hesitated a little: "Can you?"

Mu Li nodded: "Yes, if a subordinate once broke his leg, he picked it up by himself, and went out to perform tasks with his companions, helping people to pick up bones more than once." ”

Nalan Jinxiu nodded and said to Ji Xiang Ruyi: "Light a few more candles to make the room brighter." ”

When Ji Xiang saw that the county lord agreed, he couldn't help but be a little anxious, how could a woman's feet be seen by a man? The county lord is a girl who has not yet left the cabinet, if this is spread out, how can she marry in the future?

"County Lord......"

Nalan Jinxiu also knew that Ji Xiang Ruyi was worried. But in the end, she was born as a doctor, and the so-called doctor's parents' heart, is it because the other party is a man, if the injury is in a secret place, she will not save it? No matter how strict the rules are, they will become worthless in the face of human life!

She has been practicing medicine all year round, and she doesn't know how many strange patients she has seen. Even those men who have been injured and can't bandage them and need her help, or when she examines their wounds, don't they all have to be naked? If there is a female doctor around and it's not late at night, she doesn't want to trouble Mu Li. Now this is the case, her ankle is really painful, is it really going to survive until tomorrow?

"Go and light the candles. She spoke firmly.

Ji Xiang Ruyi is usually quite assertive, and he has won the trust of the master, but in the end, he knows his identity, and it is not good to directly brush the master's wishes, so he can only go over and light the lamp. Nalan Jinxiu wanted to make her own slippers, but when she saw Mu Li coming over, she said in a low voice: "Come down!"

"No, no!" Nalan Jinxiu waved at him and refused, she couldn't take care of the defense of men and women, and it was still a little bad for him to take off her shoes.

"Slave and maid come. "Jixiang half-knelt in front of the bed, and took off my shoes and socks for Nalan Jinxiu. When he found that the county lord only had the swollen ankle, he lifted up the half-faded sock again, exposing only the ankle.

Mu Li looked auspicious and secretive, and very reluctant, so he guessed one or two. Because of the border between Northern Xinjiang and Beiyan, the living customs are somewhat similar to those of Beiyan people, and they are uninhibited. The women here can ride their horses and whips, gallop on the grassland, or take the initiative to pursue the man they like, and even wash their feet in a stream in the summer when they run hot.

Because of this, he didn't expect that the ladies in Jinling City had many rules. They may think that the feet are particularly intimate and cannot be seen by men. He looked up again at the county lord and saw that she was staring at his swollen ankles.

Although Mu Li understood in his heart, his worries still prevailed. He was in a hurry to see where she sprained, and he couldn't even think about all the red tape. He poked her index finger first, and a finger mark was left on her ankle, which looked to be a little swollen.

Nalan Jinxiu shrank back in pain, she looked at her ankle, and she was also a little helpless, and the twist was a little serious. Now swollen like this, she is afraid that she will not be able to walk on her own for half a month. As the so-called 100 days of breaking muscles and bones, this seemingly simple sprain, if not properly maintained, is easy to fall into the root of the disease.

"Ruyi, you go and bring the blood-invigorating and stasis ointment. ”

The blood-invigorating and stasis cream used by Nalan Jinxiu was prepared by herself herself, and it had a miraculous effect on bruises. She is not proficient in orthopedics, but she only understands a little, but her ankle is swollen like this now, and there must be nothing wrong with using drugs that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

Mu Li took the blood-invigorating and stasis cream sent by Ruyi, pushed it away in his hand, looked at Nalan Jinxiu's ankle again, and asked tentatively, "Can the county lord take Luo's socks off?"

Nalan Jinxiu thought that he had already decided to let Mu Li come anyway, so there was no need to be hypocritical. She took off her socks with her own hands, and her expression was calm. It was because of her unhesitation that Mu Li's heart was a little unsmooth.

He told himself to keep his eyes on her injured ankle as much as possible, not to look around, lest he desecrate the county lord. But her feet were really good. The skin is as white as the first snow, the feet are thin and weak, and the slender fingers are as tender as jade porcelain, and they are covered with round nails......
