Chapter 3: Return to the Palace
"Ningchi fish!"
Everyone in the hall was taken aback, and the woman kneeling down slowly raised her head, revealing a face with delicate makeup, and her glowing eyes were full of puzzlement: "Call me?" ”
Meeting her eyes, Shen Qihuai frowned, shocked, and couldn't help but take a step closer and lean down to look at her.
A tender yellow powdered tunic skirt, embroidered on the placket, tucked yarn on the shoulders, and lightly embroidered on the arms. The forehead is lined with vermilion, the lips are plump, the cheeks are slightly red, and the long eyelashes are stained with wet dew. On the dark cloud bun is the plum blossom five hairpins, shy and timid, three points dignified, the heavenly posture and the national color seven points moving.
Where is this still the babbling Ningchi fish in the Sympathy Palace?!
After being stunned for a moment, Shen Qihuai calmed down, stood up straight and said with a smile: "Xu I recognized the wrong person, this girl is somewhat similar to the county lord of Chiyu in my house." ”
"Really?" Straightening his spine, Ning Chiyu tried to laugh so hard that it didn't matter to herself: "That's a coincidence, the little girl's name is also a pond fish." ”
His body stiffened, and Shen Qihuai squinted his eyes: "There is really such a coincidence." ”
"It's fate, is she in compassion for the palace? The little woman was just in time to meet her. Chi Yu looked into his eyes with a smile: "Maybe we can be friends." ”
"......" stared at her for a long time, Shen Qihuai turned his head to look at the princes next to him: "This matter happened to the king who wanted to enter the palace, and last night he was sorry for the pearl pavilion of the palace, and the lord of Chiyu County ...... has passed away. ”
"Huh?" Prince Xiao and several princes were shocked: "Seeing that they are about to get married, how can such a thing happen?" ”
"God is jealous." Shen Qihuai lowered his eyes, sighed long, and said with a wry smile: "This king has no intention of doing anything else now, and the court still needs to be treated by the emperor's uncles." ”
"Condolences and change." The crowd comforted.
Ning Chiyu knelt on the ground, looking at Shen Qihuai's face full of grief expressionlessly, only to feel that the burns on his body were aching faintly, and his throat was slightly tight, as if he was in a fire again, and he almost couldn't breathe.
Who knows how much her body hurts under this splendid dress! Who knows how much hatred her heart hates in this calm skin! I can't wait to rush up immediately and tear this human skin! Let's see, what kind of beast is this!
Anger surged, the pond fish raised one foot, and almost stood up directly!
"Silly boy, you didn't get up and you kept kneeling?" A red robe suddenly came out of the side, blocking her view. Someone reached out and gently half-hugged her and helped her up straight.
When Chiyu looked up, he saw Shen Guyuan's half-closed eyes, and four words were clearly written: Don't move!
What is this place? Is there a chance that she will make trouble? The guards outside are not good-looking, and Shen Qihuai is not paper-paste, how can women easily throw away their brains when they are angry?
Looking at him a little unwillingly, Chi Yu's eyes were red with grievances, he bit his lip and grabbed his clothes, and then whispered: "Listen to Master." ”
"Then come and bow to the merciful prince again." Gently pushing her back, Shen Guyuan turned around and said to Shen Qihuai: "I want to trouble the prince to take care of it more in the future." ”
Chi Yu rolled up his sleeves and stiffened his body towards Shen Qihuai: "Chi Yu doesn't understand the rules and is easy to cause trouble, so please take care of the prince in the future." ”
The fingers in his sleeves turned white, and Chi Yu lowered his head and stared at the upper of Shen Qihuai's embroidered dragon.
Be sure, well, take care of her!
Shen abandoned Huai's head, which was considered to be a response, and his eyes fell on the two masters and apprentices in front of him, a little deep.
After the confession, Shen Qihuai took Shen Guyuan and Chi Yu back to the house in a carriage, and didn't say a word along the way, and when he got off the car at the place, he called Yunyan and asked in a low voice: "The body was found?" ”
Yunyan arched his hand: "I found it, I still have a token on my body, and I have also come to confirm it, there should be nothing wrong, it has been collected into the coffin." ”
Slightly stunned, Shen Qihuai subconsciously turned around, just in time to see Chi Yu get out of the carriage and stand quietly beside Shen Guyuan, his half-hanging eyelashes were very long, and he looked extremely well-behaved.
Isn't it the same person? However, it is too similar......
Following his gaze, Yunyan also saw Chi Yu and Shen Guyuan, and his voice changed in fright: "Lord Wang? ”
"This is a guest of the palace, you are so entertained, don't lose your manners." Shen Qihuai came back to his senses and frowned: "If you have anything to say, wait until the guests settle down." ”
“…… Be. ”
Looking at this familiar gate, Chi Yu took a deep breath and tried to suppress the surging anger in his heart, but the burns on his arms were still burning and painful.
Ten years ago, she was also standing at the door of this palace, at that time this palace was still called Prince Gong's Mansion, Shen Qihuai stood beside Prince Gong with a gentle face, looking at her curiously.
The seven-year-old girl, who had just experienced the pain of annihilation, was wary of everything around her, grabbed the servant's sleeve, and refused to take a step.
"Don't be afraid." He stretched out his hand to her: "Brother will take you to see the fish in the pond in the backyard, it's so big, bright red, okay?" ”
That hand was so gentle, like his eyes, full of kindness that she subconsciously stretched out her hand.
He was the first to reach out to her, giving her a reassuring home when she was at a loss and in a state of panic.
And now, the place hangs a white flag mourning her, and the smell of burnt flesh in it is still there, making her almost vomit.
Shen Guyuan squinted at the appearance of the person next to him, his eyes moved slightly, and he walked towards the mansion with a step: "The Compassion Palace's Mansion is well repaired. ”
said so, but his tone was clearly a little disdainful, and he lowered his eyes and swept around, as if the hooks and paintings here couldn't get into his eyes, and he just barely came to live.
Shen Qihuai also saw it, and he was a little unhappy at the moment, so he came up and asked: "Dare to ask Your Highness, where do you live after being away for so long?" The court has spent so much effort, but it has not found any trace of you. ”
"It's a long story." Spit out these four words impatiently, Shen Guyuan's lips closed, he didn't mean to open them again, and walked straight forward.
Chi Yu came back to his senses and hurriedly followed his steps.
Shen Qihuai was very embarrassed, looked at Shen Guyuan's cold face, and had some scruples about having a seizure, so he could only endure this breath, and said with a brush: "Then now invite the two generals to live in Yaochi Pavilion." ”
Yaochi Pavilion is a little far away from the Compassion Pavilion, but it is very close to the Zhuzhu Pavilion, there is a hot spring pond, and it is also a comfortable place.
"Let the prince arrange it."
Shen Guyuan said so on his lips, but when he walked into the Yaochi Pavilion, his face was full of disgust that he couldn't cover it, and he swept around several times with a pair, and said very reluctantly: "That's it." ”
Shen Qihuai was so angry that he didn't want to do it, so he just flicked his sleeves and left!
His mansion is the most gorgeous place in the whole capital except for the imperial palace, and he is so looked down upon by a wild species?
Yunyan followed behind, saluted them and chased after them to appease them, but Shen Qihuai's string of low curses could still be heard from afar.
Chi Yu looked dark, and when they were gone, he pulled Shen Guyuan's sleeve and said gratefully: "Thank you for giving me anger." ”
"Huh?" Looking at her inexplicably, Shen Guyuan said, "When did I give you anger?" ”
"What?" Chi Yu was puzzled: "Didn't you deliberately act so disgusted just to be angry with him?" ”
"What does it have to do with you, this place is already terrible." Rolling his eyes elegantly, Shen Guyuan said very unhappily: "What kind of messy hot springs dare to pretend to be Yaochi." ”
Pond Fish: "......"
Looking around seriously, she couldn't laugh or cry a little: "Did you live in heaven before?" ”
Can't even get into such a good place?
Glancing at her with disgust, Uncle Shen had no desire to speak, and entered the room with a wave of his sleeves, half-lying on the chaise longue, waiting for someone to clean up the house.
"I'll sleep in the next room, and you can just scream at night if you have something." After settling around, Chi Yu really looked like an apprentice, and stood beside Shen Guyuan respectfully, half-bent over, and said, "The rest of the maids, I have sent them to the outer courtyard, and I will go back to the room first......"
"Stop." Shen Guyuan opened his eyes.
Chi Yu honestly stopped and asked obediently, "What else do you command?" ”
"Take off your coat."
Ha? Chi Yu subconsciously jumped back, clasped his hands around his chest, and frowned: "What do you mean?" ”
Shen Guyuan couldn't understand her reaction, propped himself up and sat up straight, looked her up and down, and sneered: "Between you and the mirror, I will choose the mirror." ”
As soon as his thin lips opened, the words he spit out were ruthless and poisonous, stabbing the pond fish all over his body and putting down his hand in embarrassment.
It's also ha, if you want a beauty, people can just look in the mirror themselves, and they can't think anything wrong about her.
Swallowing his saliva, Chiyu cautiously asked, "That...... What do you strip for? ”
"Pills."
It's okay not to say it, but when she said it, she felt pain all over her body, looked left and right, and asked in a low voice, "Where is the medicine?" Shall I come myself? ”
"You're covered in burns, you can do it yourself?" Shen Guyuan frowned: "Let other maids come, and your identity will not be hidden." ”
"Then ......" Chi Yu's face was a little red: "After all, men and women can't kiss each other......"
"I don't usually think of myself as a woman, but now I talk about men and women, don't you think it's funny?" Shen Guyuan rolled his eyes: "Think about what you were like when I first saved you?" Dressed like the guards in the house, men and women are not men, no wonder Shen Qihuai doesn't want to marry you. ”
When he said this, Chi Yu's eyes turned red instantly, he gritted his teeth, and slowly untied the buckle on his waist.
The garment was halfway off his shoulder, and it clung to the wound that had not been treated, tearing in pain. The burned area was a blur of flesh and blood, red and swollen and ulcerated, and the blood soaked the underwear, and the outer clothes could not be torn off, let alone the inner clothes.
The pond fish was so painful that his lips turned white, he took a deep breath, thinking that the long pain was better than the short pain, so he simply gritted his teeth and pulled it away!
However, before she could exert herself, someone reached out and flicked away her vicious hand with a flick of two fingers, took the garment, and gently shed it for her little by little.
