The frost and moon are bright, and it is the cold condensation of the night.

Qingxi fell asleep, she was too tired.

Moon Shadow stood by and fiddled with the coals.

Squeaked, the door was gently pushed, and Xiao Yizheng tiptoed in.

He relieved his outer body, walked lightly to the charcoal fire, stretched out his hand to bake, and after being covered with cold, he walked to the bedside, sat down slowly, and stared at Qingxi's sleeping face.

"Your Highness hasn't closed your eyes for a day and a night, I'm guarding the princess tonight, you go and rest." Moon Shadow said softly.

Xiao Yizheng shook his head, tucked the corners of the quilt, and said in a low voice: "You go to rest, I will guard her." ”

Moon Shadow sighed softly and saluted out of the house.

The lights in the room are dimly warm, illuminating each other's faces.

After getting off the tower, Qingxi collapsed in his arms.

He carried her all the way back to Shuaifu.

The doctor said that due to the fatigue of traveling for days, the severe cold entering the body, coupled with the mental tension and stimulation, his body has a large loss, and he needs to be well conditioned and maintained.

She had been sleeping quietly since the next night.

Xiao Yizheng raised his hand and gently massaged her face, and it was only at this moment, after dealing with all the post-war affairs, that he had full time to take a good look at her.

This face was originally fair and delicate, and it could be broken by blowing, but now there are several slight cracks.

He touched and caressed them one by one softly and slowly, and his breathing was struggling.

He reached into the quilt, fumbled for her hand, pinched it, and ran his fingers into her palm, feeling the slight protrusions. But the calligraphy and ink are danqing, and the Qianqian jade hand that can play the sound of the ages actually has a thin cocoon.

His throat tightened, and his heart ached.

Moon Shadow said she still had several bruises and bruises on her body, especially on her legs.

He couldn't look at them all, and he didn't dare to look at them all.

Afraid that the cold air would seep in, he reluctantly withdrew his hand, and tidied up the bedding again, and then just stared at her so deeply.

Looking at it, he felt that something slipped off his face, and when he reached out and touched it, it was actually tears.

How long has he not wept? It seems that since the death of his mother, he has never shed a single tear. He had almost forgotten what it was like to cry.

The tears at this moment are fear, distress, love, and anger.

He shifted closer to her, and choked softly, "Why do you always act like this?" You don't listen to what I say...... It scares my heart every time. What the hell am I going to say and do so that you can learn to protect yourself from worrying me? Ah Heng, this time, I'm really angry with you. He paused, leaned down, looked carefully at the fine marks on her face, and whispered softly: "The wounds on the face, the calluses on the hands, and the pain on the body, we will take care of them slowly." You're afraid you don't even know how beautiful you are. But I knew, I always knew. On that day, you strayed into the library and stood under the moonlight, I thought that this is not a fairy into the mortal world? My family, Ah Heng, was originally the Heavenly Immortal of the Alluring City. He placed his lips lightly over her forehead and dropped a long kiss.

When Qingxi woke up, it was noon the next day.

She opened her eyes slightly, and she couldn't adjust to the glare of the eyes. It took a while for me to fully open my eyes.

She wanted to raise her hand, but found that the futon was a little heavy, wrapping her tightly, and she couldn't make much movement at all.

Taking a few deep breaths, she slowly shook and stood up with her hands.

Hearing the movement on the bed, Moon Shadow hurriedly strode over, lifted the curtain of the bed, and saw that she was awake, and said happily, "Girl, you are awake." Then he helped her get up, padded her backrest, and let her recline comfortably on the bed.

Qingxi put his hand against his head, still a little dizzy, "Where am I?" ”

"This is the house of His Royal Highness. You've been asleep since the end of last night. The doctor said that you are tired and weak, so you should have a good rest. She went on to talk about the rest of the situation, and complained that she had left herself to take risks. You don't even know how scared I am. Especially after seeing His Highness, his expression, I have never seen it, if you have an accident, I think Your Highness will definitely kill someone. Yesterday, when His Highness came back with you, I saw that his face was snow-white, and it was estimated that he had gone to half his life. Bah, bah, ......" she said and took a few sips of herself, and then said urgently: "Amitabha, you are fine." ”

The corners of Qingxi's mouth moved, smiled, and comforted her: "I'm fine." ”

"Your Highness has watched over you all night, and you don't know how to sleep

Didn't sleep. This morning, I went to the council chamber again. ”

Qingxi frowned and asked, "What time is it?" ”

"It's noon, it's time for lunch." Moon Shadow said as if she remembered something. "The imperial doctor prescribed a nourishing medicine, it should be boiled, I'll get it, you wait, by the way, go and tell Your Highness that you're awake."

"No, don't disturb them. When he's done, he'll naturally come. Qingxi commanded.

After Moon Shadow left, she tried to move her muscles on the bed, but she was still a little tired. She raised her eyes and took a closer look around the room. Sure enough, this room was like the bedroom of the Shojoen, adhering to his usual simple style, and what was special was that the silver-white armor hanging next to the desk was glowing with a cold and hard light.

She got dressed, got out of bed and walked slowly to the armor, stretched out her hand and touched it gently, thinking about his figure on the battlefield, and her pride stained her brows.

She heard the sound of the door being pushed behind her, turned around and smiled, "You're back?" ”

turned around and looked, but it was not the moon shadow, but Xiao Yizheng in regular clothes.

She looked stunned, and in an instant, the smile on her lips bloomed even brighter.

Xiao Yizheng looked at her, but just said quietly: "Go back to bed and lie down." ”

"Huh?" She was stunned, feeling that his performance did not meet her expectations.

And Xiao Yizheng had already stepped in front of her in three or two steps, and without waiting for her to reflect, he reached out and hugged her, put her back on the bed neatly, untied her outer body with his hands, and wrapped it tightly with the futon, only revealing a small head outside.

The whole process was done in one go, and Qingxi didn't even have a chance to say a word.

She opened a pair of big eyes, Qing Lingling looked at him, and saw that he had deep bags under his eyes, and he looked tired, so she softened her voice and asked, "I heard that you guarded me all night, you are very tired, right?" Have you had lunch? Do you want to sleep? She said, moving her body inside, and without thinking, "Just sleep here, you need to rest." ”

Xiao Yizheng's eyes were heavy, and after a while, he only replied: "No." ”

Qingxi frowned, and wanted to persuade again, Moon Shadow returned.

Xiao Yizheng took the medicine in Moon Shadow's hand, sat back on the side of the bed, and said in a low voice, "Drink the medicine." ”

"Oh." Qingxi always felt that his attitude was weird, but he didn't know what was strange.

She obediently opened her mouth and drank the decoction he fed one by one. She glanced at him with every sip, but Xiao Yizheng's eyes were only fixed on the soup spoon.

After drinking the bowl of medicine, Moon Shadow handed over mouthwash and preserves.

Qingxi said proudly: "No. ”

"Naturally, you don't need it, and you can even give up the herbs that are given to you." Xiao Yizheng whispered this.

Qingxi bit her lip and pondered what this sentence meant.

Before she could think of it, she heard him command, "Open your mouth."

Looking down, he changed another bowl of red bean porridge in his hand.

"Princess, the Imperial Doctor said that you can only eat some liquid food now. This is what His Highness has specially ordered. Moon Shadow smiled and winked at her.

Qingxi Waner: "I like it. ”

So, she obediently finished the bowl of porridge he fed herself. It's just that he was just staring at the bowl of red bean porridge during the whole process.

Xiao Yizheng handed the empty bowl to Moon Shadow, got up and said, "You lie on the bed, don't go out." The tone remained faint, as if arranging an innocuous task.

She hurriedly grabbed his sleeve and asked very directly, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Xiao Yizheng lowered his eyes, looked at his hand, was silent for a while, and said to Moon Shadow: "Didn't I take a plaster from the imperial doctor to apply a plaster for the wound, and a plaster for anti-frostbite, and I will give medicine to the princess." ”

Moon Shadow also noticed the change in Xiao Yizheng's attitude, so he hurriedly put away his smile and said respectfully.

"I have something ahead of me, and I can't delay." He whispered again.

When Qingxi heard this, he hesitated for a while, but still let go.

She can't be a burden to him.

"Rest well." Xiao Yizheng couldn't help but glance at her, and saw that she was flipping the quilt covering the top one by one. His eyes flickered, gave Moonshadow a look, and strode out of the room himself.

Moon Shadow understands the matter of taking care of Qingxi, and hurriedly steps forward to cover the futon for her. "Don't lift the quilt

Do you think you're not in good health enough? Or do you think Your Highness is not tired enough? ”

She said it casually, but when these words fell into Qingxi's ears, they were like stormy waves.

Because of the war in Beisu, he was already busy and tired, and because of his own safety, he was already worried, I am afraid that he has not slept and eaten well for many days, and he is still injured.

Her heart tightened, and she instinctively wanted to get out of bed and go to him. But the hand that just got up and wanted to lift the quilt froze, and silently retracted into the futon.

She lay down slowly, looked at the top of the bed, and asked in a low voice:

"Moon Shadow, this time, am I really too daring?"

There was hesitation, grievance, fear, and worry in her voice.

Moon Shadow was stunned, thinking that her appearance was as strange as Xiao Yizheng.

"Anyway, I'm used to it. In the past, no matter how bold you were, you wouldn't do anything outrageous, after all, you couldn't do much of it. Now, you are the princess, and naturally there are more opportunities to do big things, so I am also worried. ”

Moon Shadow's words were unpolished, straightforward and simple, but they made Qingxi feel as clear as Daigo.

Because of her identity, she was willful; And he has never stopped her willfulness, and has embraced all the consequences of her willfulness.

Qingxi sighed lightly: "I understand, he's angry with me." ”

"Who? Your Highness? No way. Moon Shadow asked herself.

Look at how His Highness treats his own girl, how can he be angry.

She shook her head vigorously.

"You say, what does he like? How to coax it? It shouldn't be too difficult, right? Qingxi doesn't care about her, now she is full of coaxing plans. As if all the thrilling things that have happened in the past few days have nothing to do with him, he is not worth mentioning at all.

"Your Highness likes you!" Moon Shadow blurted out her answer.
