Chapter 16: The Mystery of Life
"Uncle Wu...... Wu Bo...... Nanmushi, please, save him...... Save him......"
Hearing the murmur of the first words, Nan Muxi stood up with anticipation. "Yu'er, Yu'er, can you hear me?"
"Uncle Wu...... Wu Bo ......" Chuyu frowned, and his expression was very painful.
"Yu'er, Yu'er." Nan Muxi called softly, a little at a loss.
Finally, Chu Yu slowly opened his eyes, looked at the roof, and then turned his head to look at Nan Muxi. "What about Uncle Wu? What about Uncle Wu? As he spoke, tears slipped from the corners of his eyes.
"I've arranged for everyone to take care of it, Yu'er, are you hungry or not, I'll let the kitchen prepare some food."
Chu Yu wanted to sit up, Nan Muxi hurriedly went to help her, but she didn't expect Chu Yu to hug him directly and start sobbing. Nan Muxi patted her on the back and comforted her, just let her cry, and it will be all right when she cries.
"I killed Uncle Wu, I killed him." The first words, who were tired of crying, said wryly.
"You can't be blamed for this, if you want to blame the king, if it weren't for the king's request to marry you, the rest of the things would not have happened."
"You ......" Chu Yu looked up at Nan Muxi, and then noticed his haggard appearance.
Nan Muxi wiped away the tears that were still hanging on her face for her: "Hungry or not, what you want to eat, I'll let the kitchen do it." ”
The gentle voice made the first ghost nod her head, and she really felt hungry. "Let's cook some porridge."
"Okay, you wait for me." After that, Nan Muxi went to the door of the room and gave a few words, and then returned to the room.
"Where's the handkerchief that Uncle Wu gave me?" Chu Yu remembered that Uncle Wu had given her a handkerchief before he died.
"With me." As he spoke, Nan Muxi took out the handkerchief from his arms.
"Read it to me."
"Okay." When I opened the veil, there was a letter in it, which looked like it had been written recently. "Let's take a look at the handkerchief first. Siqiwuer, if you still have the life to see this last letter, the queen mother is really pleased. The queen mother brought you into this world, but she failed to bring you a normal life, poor my daughter, I and your father are sorry for you. If you are still alive, I hope you can live like an ordinary person, away from the abyss, away from hatred. Love your mother's last pen. ”
"Queen Mother...... Princess Zhixi? Before Uncle Wu died, he called me Princess Zhixi. Tears filled his eyes again.
"Princess Zhixi, please allow the sinner Uncle Wu to call you that. You were originally a noble princess, but because I was tempted by money back then, I became an accomplice to the adulterer, and made an unforgivable mistake. Your father, the Emperor, was a good emperor, and was killed on the way back to the palace, and I was the one who set fire to your mother's bedchamber, and the palace maids and eunuchs who escaped were killed by the people who were lying in ambush outside. Not long after you were born, I set the fire and felt remorseful, so I sneaked in while there was chaos. Your queen mother knew that your father must have been killed, so she gave up on herself and wrote a letter and stuffed it in your swaddling clothes, intending to have her personal guards and maids take you to find a chance to escape. My presence gave her hope, and she knelt down and begged me, begging me to be someone like me who had hurt her family. I tried to take her with me, but she was so distraught that she refused. She pretended to carry you and ran out of the main gate to attract most of the attention, and I took the personal guard and maid, who was your future adoptive parents, and left in the chaos, and then left away from the Linyuan Kingdom. I knew that such a day would come eventually, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly, and I have always had such a premonition lately, so I wrote this letter. I don't ask for Princess Zhixi's forgiveness, I just ask you to live safely in the future, your father and mother will be very happy, and I'm going to accept my punishment. Take care, Princess Zhixi. Although Nan Muxi determined that the identity of Chu Yu was not simple, he was extremely shocked by such a result.
Chu Yu was also in a state of astonishment, and his sadness was still lingering. She didn't know what to say or what to do.
"What are you going to do?"
Chu Yu shook her head, she really didn't have a clue. "I just want to live well, the rest should be doomed, and I can't do anything." To live well is indeed her truest thought. She really just wants to live well, no matter which first word she is, living is the happiest thing.
"Then let's think about it in the long run, and don't think about this for now." Nan Muxi knew that it would take time for Chu Yu to digest this, and he would also need to think long-term.
When Mingyu came in with the cooked porridge, she was very happy when she saw Chu Yu, who had woken up, and secretly rejoiced that her sister was blessed with a great life. "Lord Wang, the porridge is here."
"Give it to me, you go and boil more hot water for the princess to bathe." After that, Nan Muxi began to feed Chu Yu porridge, and each spoonful was blown a few times to test the temperature before being sent to Chu Yu's mouth.
"Yes, my lord. I cooked a lot of porridge, so let's eat some of it. Mingyu looked at Nan Muxi's considerate appearance, and naturally relieved to leave her sister in his care.
"Thank you." Chu Yu looked at Nan Muxi, feeling a little reluctant and a little distressed, this was the first time she saw him tired.
"You are by my side, which is the best thank you for me." After speaking, Nan Muxi looked at Chu Yu with a serious face, and did not forget to continue to feed the porridge.
"Okay."
After feeding the first words, Nan Muxi ate by herself with the bowl and spoon she had just used.
Chu Yu looked at Nan Muxi who was eating porridge silently, thinking that when she recovered, she must make something delicious to replenish Nan Muxi's body, thinking about it, she couldn't help but smile.
"What are you thinking?" When Nan Muxi looked at Hatsuyu, he saw Hatsuyu smiling at him.
"It's nothing, it's just good to want to live." Although the first sentence did not say what he actually thought, this sentence is good to be alive is the most sincere experience at this moment.
"Wait a minute, do you want Mingyu or do you want me to take a bath for you?"
"Lord Wang......" Chu Yu didn't expect the topic to change so quickly, and he was really unprepared.
"Haha, this king teased you, but you have to be careful, don't let the water touch the wound on your arm, and come to accompany you when this king is done bathing."
"Okay."
After Nan Muxi finished eating the porridge, she wanted to call Lu Bo to come in and clean up, but when she thought of Chu Yu, she packed up the dishes and took them out, Ming Yu came in soon after he went out, and began to go in and out to prepare water for Chu Yu.
"Mingyu, how many days have I been asleep?" Hatsuyu asked Mingyu while bathing.
"Counting the day of the injury, today is the third day. My sister is awake, otherwise we wouldn't know what to do. ”
Hearing Mingyu say that he was injured, Chu Yu thought of Uncle Wu again, and his expression was a little gloomy.
Ming Yu saw Chu Yu bowing her head and not speaking, and knew that she must have thought about what happened that day again. "Sister, we don't want any accidents to happen to the people around us, but there are some things that we can't control, and living well is the best reward."
"Well, I know, but I still feel sad when I think of Uncle Wu."
"Didn't you say that people will become stars in the sky when they leave, then Uncle Wu will definitely become stars and continue to protect his sister. Also, if you are unhappy, the prince will also be unhappy, when you are unconscious, the prince will stay by the bedside every inch, not eating or drinking, for the sake of the prince, my sister will be a happy and happy sister again. ”
"Hmm." Chu Yu heard Mingyu say that the prince was guarding her without eating or drinking, and a trace of warmth rose in her heart, yes, the deceased is gone, she should look forward, not to mention that she is a person who has died once, this time she also escaped from death, and she should cherish the present.
"By the way, sister, Princess An Ning, Divine Doctor Cai, and Murong Gongzi are all in the mansion, but the prince has issued an order, and they are not allowed to disturb my sister's rest today."
"Since the prince has given the order, let's talk about it tomorrow."
When Chu Yu lay down after bathing, sleepiness hit her for a while, but she couldn't help but want to wait for Nan Muxi. When her eyes closed again in disobedience, she woke up and heard the sound of Nan Muxi talking outside the door, and then the sound of the door opening.
Nan Muxi lay down on Chu Yu's side, and Chu Yu injured his left hand, so he wouldn't touch the wound when he slept next to her. He propped his head with one hand and looked at Chu Yu: "Does the wound still hurt?" ”
"I don't seem to feel anything." Chu Yu turned sideways to look at Nan Muxi, he looked a little more energetic after bathing, but he still couldn't hide his exhaustion. "You must be very tired, you've worked hard for the past two days." As he spoke, Chu Yu's hand touched Nan Muxi's face.
Nan Muxi let Chu Yu touch his face, his big hand covered Chu Yu's hand, and he didn't say anything.
Chu Yu leaned closer to Nan Muxi, blinking a little slower, and finally closed his eyes. Nan Muxi gently held her hand, snuggled up to the lovely person beside her, and also fell asleep.
