Chapter 15: Yuan'er

Ignoring the courtesy and humility, Cai Ling jumped out of the carriage first, and saw Liang Mingyue waiting anxiously at the door, so she hurriedly went to ask about Yuan'er's situation.

Liang Mingyue was originally talking with a slight cry, and suddenly saw King Qin jump out of the carriage, his voice was interrupted, his expression was complicated, and he hurriedly bowed his knees to King Qin who came over. When he looked up again, there was a shyness on his crimson face that could not be hidden.

Cai Ling is a person who has come over, and he can see the meaning in an instant. Turning his eyes at Shen Muchi, he was still the same cold face as before, although he was handsome and extraordinary, he was a rejecting appearance. In the past, she couldn't even see that Baba looked at him, thinking that they would have a good time with each other.

"I'll go first to take a look at Yuan'er, you will wait outside first, and if there is anything needed, I will come out and tell you." Cai Ling didn't want Liang Mingyue to be in danger, and she didn't want to involve Shen Muchi.

Hud, one person and one horse galloped over, and it was someone from Liangfu who came to report that the little young master of the eldest son's family was gone. Liang Mingyue couldn't hold back after hearing this, tears kept pouring out like beads with broken threads, she was extremely beautiful, her lips were slightly curled and always a charming smile, but now she was crying, Chu Chu was pitiful, and she couldn't help but feel very distressed. Cai Ling took her into her arms, patted her back, and comforted her.

Cai Ling raised her eyes to look at Shen Muchi, and saw that he was also a little moved, so she had an idea in her heart, pulling Shen Muchi's sleeve, and the two walked to the side, she said, "Mingyue should go back to the house immediately, but she is so sad now, can the prince give Mingyue a ride on my behalf?" She thought that after Shen Muchi was gone, she quickly moved Yuan'er to a safe place, which not only saved Yuan'er, but also treated Shen Muchi well.

"This king is not leaving." He said stubbornly, with a tenderness in his slightly lowered gaze that she had never seen before, "This king will go in with you." ”

She was worried, but he had already arranged for his personal guards to send Liang Mingyue back to the house, and he also stepped into the old mansion first.

An old woman leads the way, and through the winding path, a row of bamboo houses is in front of you. Cai Ling was about to rush into the house, but Manyun had already walked in front of her, "The girl is waiting outside, and the slave will go and carry the little boy out." ”

Cai Ling saw that Manyun was confident, so he said, "Remember to wrap the bed quilt." ”

Manyun nodded, and although he swore on his face, he couldn't help but clench his fists, and walked into the house with steps.

"Why is Manyun like this?" Shen Muchi asked.

"She had acne when she was young, so she wasn't afraid." Cai Ling said, "You and I were too well protected when we were young, if it was like Manyun, it would be convenient now." As soon as the words fell, he was known to be rude, how could he be commensurate with his "you and me", and how could he dare to compare him with a civilian woman? He didn't pay attention, just stared intently into the room.

A child's faint cry could be heard in the house, and shouts such as "don't go" and "don't go" could be faintly heard. Before the maid came out, Cai Ling already understood the situation inside, "Yuan'er doesn't know Manyun, he must have thought that his grandmother ordered someone to take him away." ”

Before the words were finished, the person had already walked to the door of the house, and suddenly felt footsteps behind him, turned his head and saw Shen Muchi following closely, and hurriedly persuaded, "Your Highness doesn't have to take risks. ”

"This king is not afraid." Shen Muchi's eyes were firm.

"Your Highness is not afraid, I am afraid. Your Highness is a member of the national society, and if something goes wrong in my hands, I'm afraid I'll lose my head. She said truthfully, reaching out to stop him.

"Nonsense!" He rebuked, it turned out that her concern was only related to his identity, and in a sudden burst of irritation, he opened one of the hands that stopped him, "This king insists on this." "I'm about to step into the house.

"Shen Muchi!" She suddenly called him like this, and she hadn't called him like this for a long, long time. After entering the mansion, although she was still rebellious, she also called him King Qin or His Royal Highness politely, and when she dared to call him by name, it was still the green years in her memory.

"Hmm!" He replied. But she had already put her hand around his waist and begged, "Your Highness, don't go in!" ” “

After a moment of silence, he finally said slowly, "Don't you know that this king also suffered from this disease when he was a child?" ”

Cai Ling was stunned, and then said, "Your Highness, when I was a three-year-old child, was so coaxed. He used to be the palm of her hand, and she remembered everything about him, whether it was a big thing or a trivial matter, but she had never heard of him having a pox.

"How old were you when you first met this king?" He asked.

"Seven years old." She replied.

"You were raised in the palace when you were young, how could you not see this king for the first time until you were seven years old?" He asked patiently.

"Because His Royal Highness was weak and sick when he was young, he was raised in Cuiwei and did not leave the palace gate."

"Do you know what is wrong with this king?"

"Mixin in the palace, no one can ask." She replied quickly.

"Do you still use this king to continue to explain?" He raised an eyebrow, and she let go of the letter in her hand. Thinking about it again, after all, he has a noble status, and he has no lifeless relationship with himself, so he doesn't have to make up such a lie to make him risk himself, so he puts his hanging heart in his stomach.

The two entered the house one after the other, and saw a small body lying on a pear blossom wood bed in the not spacious room, struggling and crying with the last bit of strength. In this case, if the children of other families were lying on the bed obediently at the mercy of others, but she knew that in order to fight with her brother for things, she collapsed on the bluestone slab, knocking her head and bleeding without letting go.

This child is difficult to manage, it is what she said in her heart three years ago when Yuan'er was one year old, and since then she has not been intimate with this child, intentionally or unintentionally. I didn't expect to put on a motherly smile now.

"Yuan'er...... I'm my aunt. As she approached, she whispered, "Auntie has come and taken you home." ”

"Auntie? ......" Yuan'er couldn't speak, muttering, "Mother...... Call my aunt to pick up ......"

"Eh......" looked at the rashes on Yuan'er's face, some of which were oozing pus, Cai Ling's heart seemed to be twisted by a knife, tears rolled in his eyes, and he said softly, "It was your mother who asked my aunt to pick up Yuan'er." Yuan'er obediently went home with her aunt, okay? ”

"Liar." The voice was low, but it was full of disappointment, "My mother said that my aunt is the best at deceiving people!" My mother's ...... Not for a long time. Halfway through the words, the little man lost his strength anymore and fell asleep unconsciously.

Cai Ling was so anxious that she hurriedly wanted to hug her, but she was pulled away, and she raised her eyes to see Shen Muchi's eyes like torches. She hurriedly said, "Can you help us get a doctor?" I must bring him back to Jiang's Mansion today. ”

"Manyun, carry the child into the carriage." He commanded coldly.

Manyun sat in the carriage with the child in his arms, the guards escorted Liang Mingyue before returning, Shen Muchi became a donkey, Cai Ling sat beside him, and the carriage galloped on the official road. No one thought that His Royal Highness King Qin would drive in person, passing by the bumpy place, he held the reins with one hand, and stretched out one hand to protect Cai Ling firmly, afraid that she would be turned upside down.

Cai Ling was grateful, and couldn't help but say thank you, the sound of the horse's hooves drowned her voice in the flying dust, but he seemed to hear her words clearly, and only smiled sideways.

If I had seen him with such a gentle and sultry smile before, I was afraid that I would not be able to control it and immediately fall down. Now there is only regret left, but it is just a creation to make people.

The carriage did not stop all the way, drove straight into the Qin Palace, and stopped in front of the courtyard of Shen Muchi's residence. As soon as the carriage and horses stopped, a group of slaves in the courtyard had already flocked to the courtyard, and the leader was Wei Wei, who couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw the appearance of the prince personally driving the dusty servants.

Unable to get approached, Shen Muchi ordered all the people in Hanzhang Courtyard who had had pox to stay, and the rest of them immediately moved elsewhere, and also instructed the steward who came in a hurry to explain the current situation.

Under the leadership of the steward and Wei Wei, everyone cleaned up the yard in an orderly manner. Soon, the originally noisy courtyard was as quiet as if it was in a mountainous place. Several slaves settled Yuan'er in the west wing together with Manyun, and Cai Ling was not at ease and followed the whole process. Later, Jiang Taichang also came with two apprentices, and the apprentices carried a medicine box and a few small baggage, which meant that they also had to live in Hanzhang Courtyard, and it was not easy for them to return to their positions.

After Jiang Taichang diagnosed Yuan'er, she prescribed a prescription, Cai Ling took the prescription and listened carefully to Jiang Taichang's explanation of this disease, and the little masters took the prescription from her hand and hurriedly went to dispense and decoction. Cai Ling personally guarded Manyun to feed the medicine, it should be the bitterness of the medicine, the comatose child choked on a cough, spit out the thick black medicinal juice, and muttered: "Mother...... Mother, don't go......"

Cai Ling hurriedly walked a few steps closer and said softly: "Yuan'er obediently drink the medicine, and when she recovers, she will naturally be able to see her mother." ”

When the child heard this, although he was still in pain, two strings of tears slipped from the corners of his eyes. Cai Ling's heart hurt very much, and she instructed Manyun to continue feeding the medicine. After Yuan'er took the medicine, Cai Ling still refused to leave, and sat on the round stool to talk to him, there were too many things happening today, she was physically and mentally exhausted, and she didn't have a clue when she told the story, and she made up a story about a stupid boy and a donkey, and Yuan'er actually fell asleep after listening to it.

"Girl, Yuan'er is taken care of by the slaves and maids, so don't worry. It's getting late, and it's time for you to eat. "Manyun Road.

"What time is it?" Cai Ling looked out the window, a bright moon hung in the sky, and before she knew it, it was late, and the candlelight in the house was flickering.

"It's just over the unitary hour. The prince was still waiting for the girl in the room. Manyun urged.

When Cai Ling left, she instructed the maids waiting in the outhouse to remember to add two more pieces of carbon.

When I got out of the west wing, I saw the bright candle flame burning in the main house, thinking that Shen Muchi rushed back from the way to Luoyang on his horse, and accompanied her to toss until now, I inevitably felt guilty and didn't want to bother anymore. I wanted to ask someone to spread the word, so I won't bother him anymore tonight, but when I look around, there is no one in the courtyard, and there are not many people who have had acne in Hanzhang Courtyard.

Stepping into the threshold of the main house, I saw Shen Muchi, who was sitting behind the case with a candle reading, and the two maidservants standing next to him, saw her coming, and went to the small kitchen to get dinner.

He had already bathed and changed his clothes, and the room was as warm as spring, so he only wore a moon-white robe, his long hair was half-combed, and he stood up with a long posture, and his appearance was indescribable.

Damn it, now that she is a white cloud dog, time has passed, and she is still easily trapped in his jade tree in the wind.

He put the book away, brought her to the round table, and poured her a glass of water himself, "It's not early, it's time to be hungry, right?" Soon there will be eaten. ”

She had come to thank her, and by the way, she asked where she lived, but now she was really hungry, but she didn't want to bother more. At this moment, the maids came in with two layers of food boxes, and they were arranging the dishes in an orderly manner.

Cai Ling knew that Shen Muchi hadn't had dinner yet, so he shouldn't wait for her any longer, right? If you go again at this time, it is not in line with the courtesy. Cai Ling remembered Jiang Taichang's instructions and carefully washed her face and hands before eating. Shen Muchi said behind him, "The back room has prepared hot water, and I went to bathe after eating." ”

Cai Ling was startled, and hurriedly said, "Your Highness is too polite, I'll just go back to the room and take a bath." ”

A smile flashed in Shen Muchi's eyes, but there was indifference on his face that could not be refused, "From today onwards, you will live here in this king, and you are not allowed to go anywhere." ”

They were isolated, she knew it in her heart, but Hanzhang Courtyard was so big and there were many houses, why did it have to be two people crowded together?

"Why?" Halfway through the meal, she couldn't help but ask. The sullen tone was almost like a scolding: Shen Muchi, are you sick? When the old lady chased you, you pretended to be unattainable, and now the old lady finally abandoned it like a piece of, and you are doing things again!

"What?" He swallowed the food in his mouth and asked knowingly.

"Why did you do this to me all of a sudden?" The tone has softened a lot.

"How?" He put down his chopsticks, still asking knowingly.

"That's ...... Good. She paused, and finally said a "good" word.

"This king likes it." He was still careless, and a pear vortex faintly appeared on his fair face.

There was nothing left.
