Chapter 18 You don't need to be strong in front of me
After the Phoenix incident that day, Xi Jue and Xi Shuang were still practicing swords in the Imperial Garden as usual, but the fact that Xi Shuang almost lost his life that day was suppressed, because Xi Yue and Feng Huanyu's big day was coming soon, and they couldn't let these little things touch the mold, so Xi Shuang coerced Xi Jue to shut up obediently, and the maids present that day didn't even dare to come out. The days are still the same, but since that day, Xi Shuang often has nightmares at night, or the appearance of the phoenix's mouth closed and the scene of almost falling into the water floating in the air that day, but I don't know why, the white-clothed Shengxue will appear in the dream every night, either reproducing the scene of Jing rescuing her that day, or vaguely seeing him holding his hand tightly by the bedside, although his face is full of haggardness, but the care has not diminished at all. Xi Shuang looked confused, he didn't know why he was like this, thinking that he might have been poisoned, and he had to ask the imperial doctor for some medicine to eat another day.
In fact, Long Xuanjing had long expected that Xi Shuang would inevitably have nightmares for a few days after being frightened, but due to the obstacle of identity, he could only stay by Xi Shuang's bedside when he dreamed back at midnight, and when she was imprisoned by the nightmare, he held his hand to pass on warmth to drive away the nightmare.
Xi Shuang was a little distracted, and he didn't notice Xi Jue's Qingying sword stabbing straight towards him, Xi Jue thought that Xi Shuang could block it back, but he didn't know that Xi Shuang's mind had already flown out of the clouds. Xi Jue slammed it but it was too late, so he had to use his milk to change the direction of the sword blade, not to mention that he was eaten by the sword qi for the time being, and almost fell to the ground, even if the direction changed, Xi Shuang's skin-like arm was still cut through a hole, blood gushed out, and Zixia Sword fell to the ground fiercely. Fortunately, the blade of the sword was changed, otherwise it would have been Xi Shuang's chest that would have been stabbed.
Xi Jue threw the Qingying Sword to the ground next to him without thinking, and hurriedly ran towards Xi Shuang, Qingying Sword seemed to know that he was abandoned by his master, struggled on the ground a few times, and dispersed the sword qi in frustration, and the Zixia Sword also dispersed the purple qi as if he had a soul. Xi Shuang covered her arm, but blood flowed out from the gap between her jade fingers, and she sat down on the ground with some faintness. Xi Jue's heart ached, and he quickly tore off the fabric at the corner of his clothes, squatted down and rolled up Xi Shuang's sleeves, put the injured hand on his thigh, and carefully helped her bandage the wound. Unexpectedly, Xi Yue's first-aid knowledge really came in handy, otherwise Xi Jue would only be in a hurry. Xi Shuang looked at Xi Jue's serious look, and he didn't expect Xi Jue to be a little more cute when he was serious, not as it's as itchy.
The blood on Xi's arms finally stopped, and Xi Jue saw that the maids were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they were angry, their eyes were full of murderous energy, and they glared at them fiercely, "Why are you still standing!! Why don't you go and ask the imperial doctor!! Xi Jue's voice was full of cold air and fire, which made people shudder.
Chu Xuan went to the marriage of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Zhang Luo, and Xi Yue and Feng Huanyu were even more busy. Just with those maids, how dare they provoke Xi Jue, the ancestor, one by one, they even crawled to the ground to ask the imperial doctor, in fact, they didn't want to stay there for a moment, otherwise they would be scolded by Xi Jue for being a bloody dog, it is estimated that Xi Jue's cannibalistic eyes will not take long to eat them to the point that there are no bones left.
"Shuangshuang, I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Xi Jue gently helped Xi Shuang to sit down on the stone bench, and supported Xi Shuang's injured arm with one hand, his eyes were lowered, and his voice was full of reproach.
"Brother Jue, you don't have to blame yourself, I was distracted, I don't blame you." Xi Shuang forced out a smile, her arm was still painful, no matter how stubborn and strong she was, the tears still couldn't stop rolling in her eyes, but she swallowed the tears into her stomach raw, she didn't want Xi Jue to worry, and she didn't want him to blame himself.
"You don't have to be so strong in front of me." Xi Jue rubbed Xi Shuang's hair, gently put her head on her shoulder, and her voice was full of tenderness. Although his shoulders are not broad and thick enough, Xi Jue firmly believes that one day he will become strong and become Xi Shuang's most solid support.
Xi Shuang looked up at Xi Jue with teary eyes, to be honest, Xi Jue still looked decent and macho when he was serious. Although Xi Shuang also knew that in front of Xi Jue, she didn't need to be as elegant and dignified as everyone else's ladies, nor did she need to pretend to be strong, she could make trouble and laugh as much as she wanted, but Xi Jue, who is usually a hanger, suddenly said such a serious thing, which still made Xi Shuang's heart tremble and buried him deep in Xi Jue's arms.
Maybe it's the feeling of home, it's her family that makes her feel at ease.
Seeing this, Xi Jue's original haze in his heart was gradually replaced by sunshine, and he couldn't help but want to tease Xi Shuang. "Tell me why I was distracted just now. Don't you see that your Uncle Jue and I are really good at kung fu, I don't know how to deal with it?! Xi Jue smiled presumptuously. Sure enough, people are invincible, and Xi Jue is really not uncomfortable.
Xi Shuang hit Xi Jue's chest hard with his other sound elbow, and secretly complained, "Shameless." Xi Jue hurriedly covered his chest as if he had something to do, gritted his teeth and pretended to be pitiful, "Oh, I said Shuangshuang, I was hit by you and bleeded internally, it hurts!" ”
Xi Shuang gave him a big roll of the eyes, "I'm bleeding." Xi Jue glanced at Xi Shuang's arm, which was still oozing with blood, and was speechless, so he had to give up.
"Actually, I'm thinking about ......" Xi Shuang bit his lip, not knowing whether to say it or not, after all, Xi Jue and Jing Xuan didn't deal with each other, and when they first met, it was like Mars hitting the earth. She was hesitating, and Xi Jue posted it with a curious face, "What are you grinding, say quickly, what do you want to know." ”
Xi Shuang glared at Xi Jue, he had never seen such a shameless person, but he still spoke, "I'm thinking, why haven't I seen Jing Xuan recently?" It stands to reason that if you are in the palace, you should ......"
"What should !!?" Xi Shuang didn't know why, and when he mentioned Jing Xuan Xi Jue, he was furious, as if Jing Xuan owed him a lot of money and hadn't paid it back. In fact, if he hadn't known that Xi Shuang was injured, he would have left her a long time ago, and he wouldn't want to hear the name again.
But it was true that they hadn't seen Jing Xuan for a long time, and they didn't know where he was now.
The terrible silence lasted for nearly a moment, but fortunately the imperial doctor came in a hurry and broke the deadlock, otherwise it was estimated that in a few hours, the two of them would have frozen into ice cubes.
Xi Jue and Xi Shuang were surrounded by a terrifying cold air, and this aura made even the imperial doctors who were over half a hundred years old tremble. The imperial doctor didn't dare to bandage Xi Shuang carefully, gave a few words, prescribed a few prescriptions, and left without looking back. While walking, I comforted my heart, and the Imperial Medical Department was comfortable. And Xi Jue and several maids behind Xi Shuang were scrambling to grab the medicine, they all wanted to escape from this ice cave quickly, the sound of the small quarrel made Xi Jue even more upset, pinched his eyes and raised his hand, still in the same cold tone, "You send Shuangshuang back to rest, I'll follow to grab the medicine." Xi Jue also walked away without looking back, the imperial doctor was old, not as young and vigorous as Xi Jue, and he was caught up after a while, but he walked with a belly full of anger but like an ice cube, his palms were full of sweat, and even his forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat.
And the situation on Xi Shuang's side is more optimistic, Xi Shuang was already confused about Xi Jue's sudden anger, Xi Jue also saved him from blocking him as soon as he left, and his mood naturally changed from cloudy to sunny, and the maids not only admired this Miss Xi but also liked it in their hearts, because only except for the crown princess, only she could cure that ancestor, their mood was not as good as the imperial doctor, but it was very clear! Xi Shuang secretly made up his mind that another day he must find out what kind of deep hatred and hatred there is between Xi Jue and Jing Xuan, so he can't deal with it.
"I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Dragon Kingdom has recently contracted a cold and is bedridden!"
"There have been rumors before that His Royal Highness is weak, and it is true, a small wind chill can make him bedridden."
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful that the wall has ears."
......
Indeed, the partition wall has ears, and Xi Shuang, who was passing by, heard the gossip of the two palace maids hiding in the corner of the wall clearly.
Xi Shuang's original hanging heart finally let go, she hasn't seen Jing Xuan for the past few days, she has been worried about whether something happened to him, and wants to come to His Royal Highness the Prince of Longguo who is sick in bed, he serves as the prince's companion, and it is normal that he can't leave! A bright smile appeared on Xi Shuang's face.
It's just that she doesn't know that the prince of the Dragon Kingdom is Jing Xuan......
