Chapter 074: The Prince Is Also What You Can Worry About Too?
She sat in front of Xiao Zhan, the rise and fall of her chest increased sharply, she took a few deep breaths, but the atrium still didn't listen to her, jumping and jumping, if it weren't for the sound of the horse's hooves of the black wings "answering" to cover her up, she would have been sold by the sound of her own heartbeat.
Xiao Zhan naturally grabbed her waist because he held the reins in his hand, and seeing her very uncomfortable appearance, he attached himself to her ear and asked:
"What's wrong with you?"
She was embarrassed to say that her heart seemed to be beating hard, up and down, and Xiao Zhan was so close to her, she felt hot in addition to her ears, so she changed the topic and said:
"It's fine. By the way, did those assassins come at you just now? I remember when I was with you before, I often ran into assassins, why did those people always hunt you down? And he is always dressed in black and masked, is it more dangerous to be a prince? ”
She sensed that Xiao Zhan behind her was staring at her, but she didn't have the courage to turn her head to look at him, in fact, he was indeed staring at her, but he just glanced at her silky black hair, and looked into the distance.
"Not really."
Not every prince will be hunted down, but it is indeed more dangerous to be a prince. But how do you compare this thing? He couldn't compare. In this world, there should be no father who doesn't love his child, right? The crown prince is also the son of the emperor, as the saying goes, tiger poison does not eat children, but his father, the emperor, is still sending assassins to hunt him down.
Scold...... However, compared to these visible pursuits, some silent gunpowder smoke can kill people even more. For example, everything he worked hard to accomplish back then was in the hope of getting the man's affirmation, but the man could always deny his efforts in a few words. The person who was called "Father Emperor" never gave him warmth, but only created countless dangers for him.
"I don't understand. You are a dignified prince, and you are in the territory of Fusang, who dares to ask for your life? ”
"It's good if you don't understand, there are some things that it's better not to understand for the rest of your life."
Hua Qing was stunned, she always felt that Xiao Zhan's appearance did not match the maturity and stability he showed.
When she arrived at the East Palace, Xiao Zhan sent her back to her room, and as soon as Gong'e left, she pounced on Xiao Zhan and forcibly took off his clothes.
Xiao Zhan didn't know what she was doing, but as soon as she came in, she took off his clothes to make him feel that she was too frivolous, and remembered that night when she held the Seventh Prince and refused to let go, there was a fire in her heart. He pinched Hua Qing's wrist and said:
"Anu, self-respect!"
She was in pain, and pointed her other finger at his back, and under the snow-white skin, there were scars left by various weapons like earthworms.
"So, these are the traces left by those people when they hunted you down?"
She couldn't believe it. He was stunned, he thought that she was going to give him a hug, but he did not think that she had come to examine the injury, so his tone softened, and he replied:
"Do you think these scars are ugly? Or is it disgusting? ”
She didn't answer, thinking that it was a lie not to be ugly or scary.
"You know, the people who left the scars on my back, they all died."
Hua Qing felt a chill down her spine when she heard this, but Xiao Zhan sneered.
"You and I grew up in a different environment, I have spent my whole life in the shadow of swords, and I have long been used to the scars on my body. At first, I had to do my best to fight with the people who were chasing me to escape the catastrophe, and then later, after more fighting, I was able to kill all the people who assassinated me without much effort, at first, I was scared to see those people suddenly die in front of me, my whole body was shaking, I lost sleep all night, and I didn't dare to open my eyes at night when I saw their eyes that couldn't be closed, but I killed too much, and my whole person became numb. I still don't remember how much blood I had on my hands, let alone the scars on my back. People like me are not like you. ”
Hua Qing turned around to find medicine, without the suffering of others, do not persuade people to be generous. Even if he kills like a demon, those assassins are all running for his life, and he fights back to protect himself, and perhaps, he himself has no choice.
She walked behind him with the medicine bottle and pulled down her clothes, but Xiao Zhan put them on again. She said urgently:
"If you don't take off your clothes, how can I drug you?"
"The skin is rough and the flesh is thick, and even if there is a real injury, after a while, it will heal on its own."
Hua Qing wanted to say that she had never seen someone who didn't care for herself like you, but at this time there was a "bang" outside the door.
Hua Qing and Xiao Zhan looked out of the door in unison, and the crown princess was followed by a few palace ladies outside the door, looking at them coldly.
Hua Qing hurriedly bent down and saluted the crown princess, and when the crown princess saw Xiao Zhan's unbuttoned shirt, she trembled with anger, and when she came in, she raised her hand and gave Hua Qing a slap.
"Shameless! The prince is also something you can worry about? ”
Xiao Zhan stretched out his hand and grabbed the crown princess's wrist, and said coldly:
"Gu Lun, don't be rude."
The crown princess looked at Xiao Zhan in astonishment, and said with tears in her eyes:
"No wonder, I said why you haven't looked at me since I got married, it turns out that you already have someone else in your heart. Then why did you ask to marry me in the first place? Now that you are supporting her in front of so many slaves, do you sincerely want me to be ugly? Hehe......"
She laughed so hard that tears fell, and in the face of the man she loved, doing such a ridiculous thing, she suspected that she was going to be schizophrenic.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, this is the East Palace! If you want a woman, you can ask for it generously, why do you do such a thing in this place? ”
Xiao Zhan was furious when he heard this, and his backhand was a slap in the face to Gu Lun.
"Red love, green love, send your master back."
Hua Qing didn't understand what they were arguing about at all, and she didn't understand what the crown princess slapped herself just now. But now the crown princess is in tears as if she is accusing the prince, she understands it, she turned to look at Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan was dressing, she thought to herself that it was over, the princess must have misunderstood something.
"Crown Princess, things are not what you think. I was just about to give medicine to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”
She was in a hurry to explain, but she didn't understand Fusang's dialect at all, even if she was flustered, waving her hand and shaking her head, the crown princess couldn't understand what she was saying at all.
Moreover, Hua Qing had already pierced the crown princess's eyes like a nail, and she had already felt the pain, and what she did tonight only magnified the pain in the princess's eyes.
"No, I'll go myself!"
The crown princess covered her face and ran out of the house in anger. Hongqing and Luyi ran out with them, and Hua Qing saw that Xiao Zhan was still standing in place very indifferently, and she was even more anxious.
"Your Highness, you and the crown princess will explain."
He was unmoved, still with a glacier face. The disaster was caused by herself, she thought to herself that it was better to go out to find Yanyan and ask Yanyan to tell the crown princess what she was doing today, so as not to affect the relationship between the two of them.
"Where are you going?"
"You don't want to explain to the crown princess, I'll ask Yanyan to explain to her."
"Do you think she'll listen to you?"
Hua Qing was stunned.
"You wait for me."
Xiao Zhan turned around and walked out of the room, according to his meaning, he should have explained to the crown princess, she was really a troublemaker. Thinking about giving medicine to Xiao Zhan, he forgot that there is no difference between doctors and women, but there is a difference between men and women, not to mention, he is still a man with a wife.
Annoyed, she closed the door and sat down against it.
The light and shadow of dusk leaked in through the window little by little with the shadow of the tree, and the beautiful ornamentation of the carved window was printed upside down on the ground, and the living dragon and phoenix were very beautiful, but she had no intention of appreciating it.
"Auntie, I really want to go home."
Her gaze scanned aimlessly everything around her, but nothing was familiar to her.
She closed her eyes and stopped looking around her, but once she closed her eyes, all that appeared in her eyes was the scene of Mrs. Hua pushing her into the water, and she had dreamed of it countless times in her sleep.
It is undeniable that Mo Huaijin's appearance has caused infinite ripples in her heart. Maybe he is really afraid of death, once he really admits that he is Hua Qing, he begs Mo Huaijin to take her back and continue to be his little scholar, but she can't go back, right? Once she goes back, she will inevitably bump into Hua Ququ and Hua Ququ's mother, Mrs. Hua, what she is afraid of is that the next time she is planted in the hands of Mrs. Hua, she doesn't even know how she died.
She saved Xiao Zhan, she was sure that Xiao Zhan would not hurt him, so she made a bet to follow him out of the customs, although she came to Fusang with him by mistake, Fusang's living habits such as not being able to take a bath every day, but eating sour every day, she was not used to it, but she did not regret coming to this trip.
Because, when she goes back to Fusang one day, she can say to her mother, "Ah Niang, I went to a country far away, farther than the Central Plains, and that country is called Fusang."
That country is acid-eclipse, but among the piles of sour food, only yogurt and fried milk horn are worth eating, and the others are average. The women of that country liked to wear fiery red, white and dark clothes, and had never seen yellow, green or blue clothes, and the women of that country had a fleshy face, but the eyes were small, and when they smiled, there was only one slit left.
Also, there is a person in that country who treats her very well, and that person is the seventh prince of Fusang country, named Xiao Ye, but she always calls him the seventh prince, just like calling His Royal Highness Prince Xiao Zhan, because in this place, it is a capital crime to call a member of the royal family by name. The Seventh Prince took her to a place called Lingnan Xiangxuehai, where the white plum, that is, the green calyx plum that A-Niang you like, actually bloomed in mid-September. There is also tea brewed from the mountain spring in that place, which is really fragrant.
She lay on the table by the window, thinking about her aunt, and fell asleep unconsciously.
When Xiao Zhan came in alone with the palace lamp, he only saw her lying on the table softly and weakly, without closing the window. He put down the palace lamp, and when he reached out to close the window, he only saw a bare magnolia tree in the courtyard tied to various lanterns, swaying in the bleak night.
