Volume I: Painting Hall Spring Chapter 65: First Kiss
"You're hurt!" Qingxi exclaimed.
Xiao Yizheng glanced down at her, and pulled her up as if he didn't care much: "Are you okay?" Are you still moving? ”
Qingxi only then felt pain all over her body, she raised her hand to look at the scratches on the back of her hand, and shook her head with a smile.
Xiao Yizheng frowned lightly, looked up and down carefully, and saw that there were many tears in her skirt, and there were no too many bloodstains, so she was a little relieved.
He slowly climbed up the slope with Qingxi tightly, and dense beads of sweat oozed from both of their foreheads.
Not far away, the broken frame was scattered on the side of the road, but fortunately, the horses did not run away and were grazing on the side of the road. The coachman also came in a hurry, covering his legs heavily, but he didn't forget to care about Xiao Yizheng and Qingxi's injuries. "Your Highness, your right shoulder....... this is not good, you have to heal it quickly......"
Qingxi hurriedly tried to tear open the skirt to bandage him, but he decisively stopped him. "This little injury can survive back to the palace."
He glanced at the scene again, his eyes were focused and profound, he turned around and asked the coachman about the situation, and after making sure that he was fine, he said: "This is not far from the city, I and the princess and I will ride back to the palace first, you stay here and bring all these things back to check, is there any problem?" ”
The coachman took the order. "Your Highness, rest assured."
Qingxi had already walked in front of the horse and turned over on the horse very neatly, which made Xiao Yizheng and the coachman stunned.
She raised her eyebrows and said, "I can ride a horse." ”
The coachman smiled innocently: "I'm afraid that the princess is not only good at riding, but also very proficient in this posture." ”
Qingxi patted the horse's neck and received the praise very calmly. Proficient in riding, that is natural, when she was young in Sujiang, her grandfather specially invited the best local equestrian master to teach her and Qingsong for two years. She looked at Xiao Yizheng's injuries and left the position in front to him.
While speaking, Xiao Yizheng also exerted force with his left hand and stepped on the horse.
"It's going to be fast, you hurry." As soon as he clamped the horse's belly, Qingxi subconsciously hugged his waist, and the horse galloped away.
When the horses drove into the back door of the palace, it was already the willows on the moon.
When Zhao Xin saw Qingxi supporting Xiao Yizheng, whose face was already pale, he exclaimed: "This, what's going on?" ”
Xiao Yizheng pressed Zhao Xin's shoulder and said in a low voice: "You go and send a few people to drag back the damaged frame on the road to Fahua, quickly!" The news of my injury must not be spread out of the palace. Just go! ”
Soon after Zhao Xin left, Zhongbo led the doctor into Zhengzheng Garden.
"Doctor Qian, I'm sorry for you, but it's not appropriate to spread the word." Xiao Yizheng was half-lying on the bed and solemnly explained.
Doctor Qian bowed: "The little one understands, so much, knows the rules." ”
Xiao Yizheng smiled at the corner of his mouth and pointed at Qingxi: "Check for the princess first, she has a hand injury, go and deal with it." ”
Qingxi raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "I'm fine, go and treat your highness's wounds." Seeing that Xiao Yizheng still wanted to insist, she added: "I'll go back and change my clothes first, if you come back and you haven't treated the wound, I'll go into the palace and tell my father." With that, he turned and went out of the house.
Xiao Yizheng chuckled and shook his head.
And when Qingxi changed into clean clothes and returned to Zhengzheng Yuan, Xiao Yizheng's wound cleaning was not over.
She looked at him half-naked with his right arm, and she was a little embarrassed, but soon all her attention was focused on the wound.
Although the wound punctured by the sharp branch is not deep, the wound surface is quite large, and the process of medication naturally affects the wound, and the pain still makes Xiao Yizheng frown from time to time.
Qingxi's heart also twitched slightly with his floating eyebrows. She glanced at a long wound on his right upper arm, not far from his new wound, a long wound that had healed and reddened slightly. She stepped forward slightly, understanding that this was the mark he left on to save people in the southwest.
I took a trip to the southwest and fell into a wound. Now, before he set off to the northwest, he has been wounded.
Qingxi lowered his eyes, and his complicated mood was indescribable.
"Princess, the little one will take care of your wounds."
She suddenly came back to her senses and saw that Dr. Qian had already walked in front of her, and Xiao Yizheng was looking at her and smiling.
The injury on the back of her hand had already been treated simply, so it didn't take long for Dr. Qian. Then, he opened a pharmacy, gave some advice, and was led out of the house by Zhongbo.
And Zhao Xin also came back ahead of schedule to restore his life.
"Your Highness, things are being dragged back, I'll come back and tell you first. When we went, the coachman was fine. ”
"On closer inspection, the car must have been passive."
After Zhao Xin left, Qingxi stepped forward and asked urgently: "Who is going to be unfavorable to you?" Are you not going to leave for the Northwest tomorrow? ”
Xiao Yizheng saw her anxious face, smiled slightly, and asked her to sit.
Qingxi only cared about his safety, and he couldn't care much, so he sat down on the edge of the bed, very close to Xiao Yizheng, staring at him with a pair of big eyes.
Xiao Yizheng was a little uncomfortable staring at her, and gathered the clothes on his body before he spoke: "Don't be so nervous." There's no reason why a carriage can be so easily overturned after a jolt, and although I don't know who orchestrated it, I think the purpose may have been to injure me slightly. ”
"Minor injuries?" Qingxi was puzzled, and suddenly wrinkled his eyebrows again: "Do you want to stop you from going to the northwest?" ”
Xiao Yizheng nodded: "Maybe." ”
"Why?" Qingxi muttered.
Xiao Yizheng's body moved, and asked in a deep voice: "I remember you said that the murder of the crown princess doesn't seem to be done by Concubine Nian alone?" ”
Qingxi thought about it, he did say this, so he nodded. "But in the end, this matter is borne by Concubine Nian alone."
"I'm afraid your guess might be right."
Xiao Yizheng's fluttering words made Qingxi stunned.
"This is the most fundamental reason why I insist on going to the Northwest."
Qingxi was stunned. "Why?"
"I don't know if my father is suspicious of this. But now that he is not in good health, the third brother is not in Shangdu, if there are unscrupulous people hidden in the shadows in the court, at this time, the military generals who have the power to deploy the military cannot be allowed to leave Shangdu again. ”
"And who wouldn't let you go?"
Xiao Yizheng shook his head, "At the moment, I can't guess either. ”
"Is it dangerous for you to go?" Qingxi unconsciously grabbed the sleeve of his coat that he was dragging beside the bed.
The light in Xiao Yizheng's eyes was brighter: "The more people stop it, the more you have to go." ”
"But your injuries?" Qingxi's gaze fell on his right shoulder again.
Half of his clothes had hidden the wounds, but the remaining half of the bandages were visibly oozing blood.
When it came to the wound, Xiao Yizheng seemed to think of something, and said solemnly: "You pushed me away with your self-righteousness at that time, and you faced danger by yourself, which is very dangerous." As I told you, you must not actively put yourself in danger. Remember, there will be no next time! ”
Qingxi was still worried about his injury, but when he heard his stern tone, he felt aggrieved and was speechless for a while.
Xiao Yizheng's eyes lowered, and he wanted to see her expression clearly, but he caught a glimpse of blood oozing from the gauze wrapped around the back of her right hand. He felt a pain in his heart, reached out and held her delicate and white hand, and his voice was soft: "You hurt me, how can I feel good?" ”
When Qingxi looked up again, somehow, two lines of tears fell. "How can I feel good if you are injured and have to travel far to the battlefield?"
Her voice was warm and greasy, like a feather fan floating in Xiao Yizheng's heart, so itchy, numb and soft. He looked into her mirror-like eyes, crystal clear tears across her blown-up face, and the dim light of the oil lamp in the room created a hazy feeling. He reached out to wipe away her tears, which seemed to fall into his heart, nourishing countless comforting feelings.
Qingxi didn't resist, she slowly closed her eyes, feeling his silent but sure comfort, which made her feel at ease and relieved, but her tears seemed to open the floodgates, uncontrollable, falling again and again. She was worried about his injuries and felt sorry for his burden.
Xiao Yizheng's brows frowned even tighter, and he didn't know how to heal her tears. A thought arose in his mind, and he didn't want to think about it, so he stepped forward, gently dropped his lips on her cheek, and gently kissed her tears.
Qingxi's voice froze, her brain seemed to have set off fireworks, and she felt that her brain was blank, and her ears rang constantly.
And Xiao Yizheng's kiss had already fallen on her lips, touching carefully and gently, leaving at one touch, and then touching the temptation. Obviously there was still the saltiness of her tears on his lips, but he felt that her lips were incomparably soft and sweet. He clung to it, wanting to explore deeper warmth and beauty.
But Qingxi, who had already opened his eyes, seemed to understand, suddenly pushed vigorously, stood up, blushed and panted nervously and helplessly looking at Xiao Yizheng.
Xiao Yizheng's wound was painful, and his left hand subconsciously protected the wound. Seeing this, Qingxi was worried about his wounds, and hurriedly wanted to step forward to check, but saw Xiao Yizheng raise his head and look at her with a complicated expression.
She paused, avoiding his gaze, her face half-lit by the candlelight looking slightly angry. She heard his hoarse voice ringing out, "I...... I'm sorry....... it's my ......, you can be angry and blame....... or we can act as if nothing happened......"
He said intermittently, very hesitantly, which was a tone and attitude that Qingxi had never heard.
Qingxi suddenly raised her eyes and stared at him, biting her lower lip, as if she was even more angry.
She turned and walked out of the room, slamming the door shut.
The maids on the errand at the door looked at each other and gave each other a look, the princess was so temperamental, not easy to mess with.
Qingxi walked quickly towards Chaolan Yuan, and all emotions came to her heart: shyness, grievance, annoyance, worry...... All of them were mixed together, making her feel that her chest and brain cavity were about to explode, and the tears that had just been stopped by Xiao Yizheng's kiss broke the embankment again. She kept raising her hand to wipe her tears, and when she saw her injured hand again, her feet were mixed and she almost didn't stand firmly. She hurriedly held on to the courtyard wall on the side, her breathing becoming more and more rapid. Suddenly, she didn't want to go forward, so she turned around regardless of it, and broke into Xiao Yizheng's bedroom in Zhengzheng Yuan with a gust of wind.
The attendants and female officials were shocked again, and the princess came violently and stayed away.
Xiao Yizheng, who was staring at the oil lamp and stopped with a depressed face, looked at Qingxi who had gone and returned, and was still surprised, so he looked at her with a big cat-like face and pointed at him angrily and said: "Xiao Chengzhan, you hugged it, you touched it, you kissed it, you actually told me to forget it." You say, when you walk the rivers and lakes, are you so light and thin than many women? Outside, it is said that you are a chivalrous and righteous rescuer, a wise and martial artist. I'm blind! I'm blind too! ”
After speaking, without giving him time to reflect, she slammed the door again with a bang.
