Chapter Twenty-Six: Reflection
'Buckle buckle' There was a knock on the door of the carriage, Liang Qi touched his chin and coughed, "Enter"
Yan Hong took the tray and opened the curtain and entered the room, Liang Qi was quite surprised to see him, "When did Commander Yan change his official position and become a medicine officer of the imperial doctor?" I don't even know it."
Yan Hong gently placed the medicine bowl on the desk beside him, and his eagle-like eyes looked closely at the beauty who was leaning against the wooden window, she had not noticed his arrival since the beginning, and still looked into the distance with her forehead. She's still so beautiful...
"The minister was decocting medicine for the four brothers, and when he saw Gonggong Rong holding the medicine bowl and saying that he would fry a pair of decoction for Niangniang, the minister took it on his own initiative, and the emperor could rest assured that the minister would never make a mistake if he came according to the prescription!" Yan Hong saluted Liang Qi, and his voice was extremely resolute
Liang Qi looked at the thick bitter decoction that was steaming slightly and nodded, "If Commander Yan is the leader of me, I will naturally rest assured, the eunuchs who decocted the medicine a few times ago don't know how to make the dream medicine of Laoshizi have a strange smell, how can people drink it!" In fact, he also knew the bitterness of the decoction, after all, he drank several bowls in a row...
Yan Hong's eyes flickered, and he seemed to see a touch of tender white in the afterglow, and when he fixed his eyes, he saw that it was a pair of petite and lovely tender feet! The sunlight was scattered sparsely on the white and tender skin under the scattering of the window lattice, the cyan blood vessels under the thin skin of the instep were faintly visible, the pink nails were smooth and round, the snow Gu at the heart began to be restless again, the throat was sweet and dry, and the fists unconsciously clenched the wound that had just been scabbed and cracked again
"Hey! How did Commander Yan bleed! Rongcheng! Go to Xuan Taiyi! Liang Qi recently saw the blood and the whole person began to dizzy, Xu was frightened by Chu Xiang that day, Chu Xiang, who had been leaning against the window, seemed to feel something and turned his head to look at him suddenly, with a trace of doubt in his eyes
"The minister is fine, the emperor doesn't have to bother the imperial doctor.." Yan Hong wanted to wipe the blood off his hands, but there was only one piece of clothing on his body, and when he was at a loss, a white embroidered handkerchief with the fragrance of gardenia was handed to him, and the fingers holding the embroidered handkerchief were white and delicate, as fascinating as her
He looked at the embroidered handkerchief in front of him and didn't know what to do, Chu Xiang sneered suddenly, "What is Commander Yan doing in a daze? Do you have to wipe it for you yourself? ”
Liang Qi also echoed, "Commander Yan should quickly wipe the blood clean, it is not good for this carriage to have blood in it."
"Minister, obey the order" said that he stretched out his big hand to take the embroidered handkerchief, his fingers inadvertently touched her, I can't help but recall that day in the Mingluan Palace, he held her hand tightly and leaned on the soft pillow to smell her aroma, that day's 'Yan Commander' was mixed with too many emotions, there were surprises, doubts, puzzles, and... Salvation
The white silk handkerchief was instantly stained with blood, like plum blossoms blooming, Liang Qi looked at it and asked, "Why are Commander Yan's hands like this?" But was he injured the day before yesterday? ”
Yan Hong probably wiped it, folded the handkerchief and stuffed it into his arms, the movement was very natural, and the two people present did not feel anything wrong, "Chen's wound was accidentally made, and he accidentally got a swordsmanship before, and he played a few swords when he wanted to have nothing to do, and he cut his hand if he was not familiar with it, and there was ointment in the minister's place to apply it for two days."
Liang Qi leaned over to look at his wound and waved his hand again and again, "No, no, no! Let Imperial Physician Liu show you, I'm still counting on you to fight in all directions! If it is spread that I am so stingy that I will not even treat the injuries of my most trusted generals, what will I have to lose? After speaking, I heard Rong Cheng say outside, "Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor Liu has arrived."
"Xuan"
Imperial Physician Liu held the official hat on his head and was about to kneel down and salute, "Excuse me, I let you show Commander Yan, is it a big problem?"
"Minister, obey the order" Imperial Physician Liu and Yan Hong sat on the low stool, after all, Imperial Physician Liu was the old man, and at a glance, he saw that the wound was caused by multiple destruction, and looked at Yan Hong with a smile in his eyes, and then took out a small medicine bottle from the medicine box, opened the stopper, and fell down to the wound, even if Yan Hong was a good man, he almost couldn't hold back, his teeth were clenched and squeaked, the sweat on his forehead flowed down like a waterfall, and the wound in the palm of his hand contracted violently under the stimulation of the potion, and soon the whole palm was red!
Liang Qi, who was sitting opposite, looked at it and frowned, "Imperial Doctor Liu, I asked you to come to treat Commander Yan and not take his life, what are you doing?"
Imperial Physician Liu touched his beard, put the small medicine bottle back in the box, looked at Yan Hong, and said with a meaningful smile: "Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, this potion is very good for Commander Yan's injury!" After using it, the wound will heal tomorrow" After speaking, he looked at Yan Hong with a smile and signaled that if his hand was injured again, he would experience the pain again.
"Yan Hong thanked Imperial Doctor Liu" Panting and getting up, who knew that as soon as he moved, he smelled the smell of sweat after the sharp increase in sweat secretion due to the pain, and now even the dirty clothes inside are damp, and the smell on his body must be bad... embarrassed to glance at the slender figure out of the corner of his eye, sure enough... She had pushed open the small window to ventilate
After Imperial Physician Liu left, Liang Qicai remembered that he had forgotten the decoction for a while, and patted himself in annoyance, and got up and took the medicine bowl, fortunately, fortunately, the medicine was not cold "Xiang'er, come and drink the medicine, this time the medicine is Yan Commander Dang decoction, presumably there is no such strange smell."
Chu Xiang looked back at Liang Qi with a smile on his face, he was very handsome and his facial features were also very delicate, I don't know whose appearance he inherited, but... There were a few marks in the corners of Fang Cai's eyes with that smile... There are also a few silver hairs mixed in the black hair of the sideburns... When I first met him, he was so chic and uninhibited, when would he worry about such a trivial matter?
"Xiang'er? Xiang'er is distracted again, come, I'll feed you."
Chu Xiang found that his heart hurt so badly, don't look over his head, the corners of his eyes were sour, and he said a little coquettishly, "The emperor has a smell of sweat on his body, and it has smoked the concubines, and the emperor put the medicine bowl in that place, and the concubines drink it themselves."
A crack appeared on Liang Qijunxiu's face, and the corners of his mouth trembled twice, Xiang'er said that the smell of sweat on his body had smoked her? When did he sweat? But he didn't dare to disobey the order of the top child, so he had to obediently put down the medicine bowl and looked at Yan Hong by touching his nose "Ahem, I have something important to discuss with Commander Yan, can I move outside the door?"
The sweat on Yan Hong's back was already about to wet his coat, and he didn't dare to look inside at this time, so he saluted her, "Minister, retire" No one responded, he was already used to it...
After the door curtain closed, Chu Xiang looked at the bowl of medicine and fell into deep thought... I got up and put it on the tip of my nose and smelled it, sure enough, this time there was no faint smell of blood, my eyes narrowed slightly, I raised my head and drank it all in one gulp, the medicine was bitter in my throat I don't know why today's bitterness penetrated deep into my heart, coughed a few times and frowned uncomfortably, and then I saw that the curtain of the door was opened, and a bag of butter paper came in with one hand, and there was an intermittent conversation outside
Chu Xiang walked over and took the butter paper bag, the big hand retracted, and covered the door curtain, opened the wrapped paper, and inside was the color was slightly yellow and crystal clear, cut into small strips of caramel sugar, took out a piece and put it in his mouth, the memory of his childhood came to his face, the same color, taste, the same shape... Same...
The conversation outside had ended at some point, and the only thing I heard was the sound of wheels pressing over stones
Liang Qi, who was outside the door, changed into a robe and freshened up again, pulled Rong Cheng and asked, "You smell, I have it... Does it smell weird? Liang Qi thought about it and still didn't say anything about the smell of sweat, how could he, an emperor, be so unclean? ! Rong Cheng leaned down, sniffed it, shook his head and replied, "Back to the emperor, there is no strange smell on the emperor... But the mother smelled it again? The minions knew that a home remedy could cure this disease, and they used white..."
Stop, you're sick, I only ask you if you can smell it, and you're even ready for home remedies! If you're too idle, I can arrange something else for you to do! ”
Rong Cheng knelt on the wooden board and kowtowed, "The slave is talkative! Don't be angry, your majesty! Liang Qi waved his sleeves, "That's it, you go and see what you use for lunch today, and then tell them to make a dish of ice silk red pears to be warm!" ”
"No" Rong Cheng wiped the sweat from his head and retreated
Liang Qi opened the curtain and saw the empty medicine bowl, and his heart was ecstatic, "This response is that the medicine has no strange smell, it seems that the eunuch who still decocted the medicine is not distracted, and when Rong Cheng comes back, he will know who is responsible for the decoction, and see how I punish him!" Walked to the soft couch, reached out and put his hand around her shoulder, buried his head in the white neck, and sucked the fragrance
"My Xiang'er"
Chu Xiang calmed down a lot, stretched out his hand and hugged him back and said softly, "The emperor doesn't have to really punish them, just accidentally make the wrong ratio of medicine, just give them a lesson."
"Huh? I listen to Xiang'er, Xiang'er will do what she says, okay? Liang Qi closed his eyes and leaned lightly on her body, at this time he did not have a trace of the majesty above the court, nor did he have the arrogance when the envoys of various countries met him, now, he was just an ordinary man seeking warmth by his wife's side.
Chu Xiang moved to his side and let him lie on his lap, his right hand ran his hair down, and his left hand gently stroked the fine lines on the corners of his eyes, "I... It's old," Liang Qi suddenly opened his mouth to speak, startling her, "How could it be! The emperor is very young, so why is he old? ”
"Hehe, I am five years older than Xiang'er at the same age as Ake, why don't I get old? I sometimes look at the bronze mirror as if I have a madness, Xiang'er is still so young and beautiful, but I have wrinkles."
"What did the emperor say, how could the concubines dislike the emperor? Again..." Chu Xiang leaned down and leaned close to his ear, "Besides, the emperor hasn't become a father yet, how can he get old? If the emperor talks nonsense again, be careful, the child will dislike the emperor in the future, and the emperor will lose his teeth! ”
Sure enough, this sentence is Liang Qi's medicine for 'rejuvenation'! Turned over and looked at her from the bottom up, holding her big hand and putting it to her mouth and kissing it, "Since Xiang'er has said this, how dare I talk nonsense? If today's color is just right, the so-called Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, Xiang'er still responded to Fang Cai's sentence, okay? ”
Liang Qi instantly ascended to the disciple's possession, and dishonestly began to untie her waist, "Your Majesty! How can you come here at noon? "My good Xiang'er, I can't sleep alone every night in the days you have been away, look at it! I've lost weight! No one believes that Liang Qi, who is serious and serious on weekdays, will also be coquettish and want people to care
But Chu Xiang didn't fall for him, and pushed him away, and said with a teasing meaning, "The emperor is thin and the concubines don't know, but it's too undesirable to say that he can't sleep alone, right?" Isn't there a biennial draft in the palace? How could the emperor be short of attendants? Tsk, there was a hint of sourness in the words he said, and Chu Xiang regretted what he had just said after he finished speaking?!
Liang Qi smiled, touched his nose and pasted it again, "Xiang'er, is this a taste? Hehe, I am very happy, but I really have no one to wait for Rong Cheng's old face every day, how can Xiang'er be so beautiful! ”
"Don't interrupt! How many concubines did the emperor recruit? It's good that the concubines should prepare some congratulatory gifts after they go back, so that those sisters can remember that the concubines are good! ”
"Hey, why don't you believe me? Why don't I strip naked and show Xiang'er? After saying that, he began to pull his belt, and Chu Xiang helplessly helped his forehead, "The emperor doesn't want to mess around, can you wait until you get to the post station?" Now it's almost time for dinner, and the concubine is really a little hungry."
Liang Qi heard her say that she was hungry and instantly became serious, and the belt in his hand was also unraveled, and he shouted out regardless of his image, "Rongcheng?!" Ready for meals? ”
Rong Cheng outside the door stood and waited for a long time, listening to the emperor's rhetorical coaxing Niangniang, his old face turned red, the driver of the car looked back suspiciously, and was beaten back by him to drive obediently, and then ordered someone to bring the meal into the car, Liang Qi's carriage is not an exaggeration to describe it as spectacular, there are soft couch beds, tables for correction and folding, and a peach wood table, copper basin hangers for washing, etc., it is simply a small house, Chu Xiang was not used to it before, this is too extravagant and wasteful! However, Liang Qi likes it, and over time he gets used to it.
Because the food she made in the sick dining room was still lighter, but the nutrition that should still be there, Rong Cheng stood next to him and asked for cloth vegetables, Liang Qi directly kicked him out with a look, this Rong Cheng is really old! I don't know how to avoid such a warm moment!
On the other carriage, Yan Hong took off his damp robe and wiped his body naked with the water in the copper basin, and then felt that something was missing, and took out a piece of fragrant pancreas and washed it carefully from head to toe before changing into new clothes, and took out an embroidered handkerchief from the robe on the ground, even though it was stained with blood, it had dried up and darkened, and it did not destroy the beauty in the slightest
Four fingers pinched and looked at it high, and suddenly found that in an inconspicuous place in the lower right corner, a 'Xiang' was embroidered with blue silk thread, Yan Hong seemed to have obtained a strange thing in the world, and excitedly spread the embroidered handkerchief on his face, greedily sniffing the fragrance on it. Resemble! It's so similar! It's like the smell of her! The situation of that day kept coming back to my mind, and my chest was panting violently. After a long time, the eagle-like eyes opened with reddish bloodshots, and the throat slid up and down
"Heart..."
