Su Muling lay on the couch and didn't speak, Xiao Wenxuan sighed, got up and went down: "If you don't want to go out, then I'll let people bring the food in, and I'll accompany you to eat here." ”

Seeing that Su Muling still didn't move, Xiao Wenxuan walked to the door and ordered someone to send the food to the dormitory.

The meal was delivered quickly, and Xiao Wenxuan came to Su Muling's side again and patiently persuaded her:

"Ling'er, no matter how angry you are, you still have to eat. Come, and I will help you up. ”

Xiao Wenxuan said, reaching out to hug her. Su Muling turned over and avoided him, picked up the cushion and pressed it on his head.

Xiao Wenxuan was treated coldly, Peach Blossom's eyes narrowed, and he snatched the cushion from her head. Just as he was about to pick her up by force, Shadowless reported at the door:

"Prince, the emperor invites the prince to the Qianqing Palace."

Xiao Wenxuan threw down the cushion and stared at the back of her head with suppressed anger:

"Well, since you don't want to eat, let's sleep for a while. If there is any need, no shadow at the door. ”

"Shadowless, you stay here and serve." Xiao Wenxuan stood up, threw up his sleeves and left.

……

In the Qianqing Palace, the emperor sat on the kang and reviewed the folds. Seeing Xiao Wenxuan coming in, he put down the pen in his hand.

"Dinner?"

Xiao Wenxuan waved at the emperor and replied honestly: "Back to my father, I haven't yet." ”

"Eat with me here."

The emperor got off the ground with one leg on his side, and Gonggong An stepped forward to help the emperor to walk to the outer hall, and Xiao Wenxuan followed behind.

Xiao Wenxuan and the emperor came to the table, and the dinner on the table had been set, and there were not many dishes, more than twenty. Compared with the emperors of previous dynasties, the emperor is frugal. However, it is not that the emperor does not like extravagance and waste, but because the treasury is empty, and the emperor has no wasted capital.

"I heard that the woman of the Su family is in your palace?" The emperor looked at Xiao Wenxuan while eating.

Xiao Wenxuan knew that the affairs in this palace could not be hidden from the emperor, so he swallowed the food in his mouth and replied, "Yes." ”

"You'an, I know you still can't let go of her. Don't blame me for not warning you, your status is no better than that of the prince now, your every move is in the eyes of everyone, and the slightest mistake will make people make a big fuss. ”

The emperor didn't eat anymore, and looked at him with his eyes, for fear that he would do whatever he wanted for Su Muling like he did back then.

Xiao Wenxuan also put down the dishes and chopsticks, lowered his head and looked solemn. After a while, he raised his head to meet the emperor's gaze, lowered his posture and prayed:

"Father, I am sincere to Ling'er. Please give me some more time to convince her. ”

"Convince her? She set fire to the house and left you without saying goodbye, do you expect her to change her mind? You'an, this folk girl is a folk girl, and she is not half a star away from everyone in the capital. How many women in the capital are not enough for you to choose, why do you just have to compete with her? The more the emperor spoke, the more angry he became, and threw the chopsticks directly.

"You'an, I'm old, I don't like to make extraneous branches, this kind of restless woman is not suitable to stay in the palace, you should think about it."

After the emperor finished speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and ate a few bites before leaving, leaving Xiao Wenxuan sitting there with a heavy heart.

In the East Palace, when the prince was in the dormitory, Su Muling saw that Xiao Wenxuan was gone, and he also sat up. She looked towards the doorway, where Shadowless stood with his back to her.

Su Muling knew that it was impossible for her to escape from the East Palace on her own. After a day of tossing, she was already hungry. But she didn't want to accept defeat and eat Xiao Wenxuan's meal.

After sitting for a while, she lay down again, thinking that she should go to sleep, and when she fell asleep, she did not know that she was hungry.

Before he closed his eyes, Su Muling heard a shadowless voice at the door: "Mrs. Qian." ”

"Is the prince here? I boiled ginseng soup for the prince. A woman's delicate voice.

"The prince is not here, madam, please come back."

"Not there? Where did it go? Then I'll just wait here for a while...... Yo, have guests? ”

The woman broke in despite the shadowless obstruction, and when she saw Su Muling lying on the kang, she walked over with light steps.

"Madame......" Wuying followed up and tried to stop it.

Su Muling sat up and looked at the woman in a gorgeous dress and jewels, and ordered Wuying: "Let her in." ”

Wuying stopped and stared vigilantly at Xiao Wenxuan's side concubine Qian Wenting.

Qian Wenting walked up to Su Muling, put the medicine cup in her hand on the table, sat down against the edge of the kang, and her eyes scanned Su Muling's face.

"You're Sister Su, right? Sure enough, it is a rare beauty in the world, no wonder the prince is obsessed with you. I am the prince's side concubine, you can call me Wen Ting. Qian Wenting will introduce herself first.

Su Muling nodded slightly at her and didn't speak.

Qian Wenting didn't mind Su Muling's coldness, she glanced at the table with a pair of slender phoenix eyes, and immediately covered her mouth and snickered.

"Today, the prince asked me what I wanted to eat, and I said that I hadn't eaten roasted deer tendon and rose tofu for a long time, so the prince ordered the kitchen to add these two dishes at night, but I didn't expect Sister Su and I to have such similar tastes, and I like it. It seems that Sister Su and I are really destined......"

"I heard that Sister Su's family is the richest man in Songjiang, and the Su family has countless treasures. Only we, who are from a small family, have the prince's things to be happy for several days. The prince said that he likes me, don't pick it, it's only been a few days, and the prince is about to fill my private vault......"

Qian Wenting Balabala kept talking, from how Xiao Wenxuan treated her well, to Xiao Wenxuan's affection for her:

“…… The emperor is very important to the crown prince now, I am afraid that the throne will be passed to the crown prince in two years, I hope that this year I can add people to the royal family, give birth to a little son, and continue to have children......"

"I really want to eat sour these days, and I'm lazy, I really hope that these days have not been in vain...... By the way, I heard that Sister Su opened a Julongzhai on Wolong Street, which is full every day, and I have always wanted to taste it, but the prince cherishes it, and is afraid that the things outside will not be clean and I will eat it badly, so I have not fished it out. When is Sister Su leaving? Take me to see how ......"

Su Muling listened to the affairs of Xiao Wenxuan and other women for half a day, and suddenly found that there was no imaginary anger in his heart. She was very strange about her feelings, could it be that she no longer had the original love for Xiao Wenxuan? Su Muling didn't know when she had let go of this once unforgettable relationship.

In a trance, she heard Xiao Wenxuan's annoyed voice: "Who called you in?" Get out! ”

Su Muling was shocked, and saw Qian Wenting walking out in a panic with her head down.

"Who let her in?" Xiao Wenxuan's face was as cold as ice.

Wuying knelt down on one knee and bowed his head to admit his mistake: "It's a dereliction of duty on the part of his subordinates, please deal with it with the prince." ”

"It's not a matter of shadowlessness, your side concubine will send you ginseng soup, and I will leave her to talk for a while. How? I don't even have the qualifications to talk to the side concubine? ”

In the face of Su Muling's sarcasm, Xiao Wenxuan's face turned pale, he walked to the table, picked up the ginseng tea sent by Qian Wenting and slammed it against the door.

The teacup shattered instantly, fragments splashed everywhere, and one piece bounced right in front of Su Muling's eyes. Su Muling only felt a chill on his face, and when he reached out to touch it, a drop of blood flowed down.

Xiao Wenxuan turned around at this moment just to see this scene, and stepped forward to pick up Su Muling's face in surprise, only to see a wound from his cheek to the corner of his mouth, and blood was slowly flowing out from the wound.

"Ling'er? Doctor, call Doctor ......"

Shadowless jumped up from the ground and disappeared into the night in an instant.

"Ling'er, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to. I really didn't mean to, Ling'er......"

Xiao Wenxuan was frightened, although he was dissatisfied with Su Muling's indifference to him, he never thought of hurting her. He took Su Muling in his arms and pulled a handkerchief to cover her face, he didn't dare to look at her directly, he just muttered an apology in her ear, he scolded himself for being a bastard, he hated himself for being reckless.

Su Muling had already felt the burning pain on his face at this time, and the blood had already flowed through the handkerchief to his chin.

She stretched out her hand to caress Xiao Wenxuan's face, and tried to squeeze out a smile to comfort him: "You'an, I don't blame you, it's not your fault." ”

Su Muling's move suddenly made Xiao Wenxuan burst into tears with guilt, he didn't care about his identity, he didn't care about the guards and imperial doctors who rushed to hear the sound, he hugged Su Muling and cried loudly.

"Ling'er, I'm not good for me, I shouldn't have failed you, you have paid so much for me, but I can't give you a complete me. Ling'er, I'm sorry......"

"Prince, Prince...... Miss Su's injuries need to be treated in time, you let her go first......"

Imperial Physician Li and Imperial Physician Jiang, who came in a hurry, saw that the blood on Su Muling's face was flowing more and more, but Xiao Wenxuan held her alive and did not let go, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her. But Xiao Wenxuan hugged Su Muling as if he hadn't heard it, crying in despair and grief.

Wuying and Li Feng had no choice but to forcibly break Xiao Wenxuan's arm and snatch Su Muling out of his arms.

Su Muling was already dazed and a little dazed at this time, so she let Wuying carry her to the bed, and the imperial doctor gave her medicine to stop the bleeding.

After about two quarters of an hour, the blood on Su Muling's face finally stopped, and Su Muling also fell into a deep sleep due to physical exhaustion and excessive blood loss.

The imperial physician instructed the palace maid to wipe the blood on her body and change her bloody clothes. Leaving Imperial Physician Li behind, the others quietly retreated.

The bloodshed in the prince's bedroom alarmed the emperor, and the emperor sighed and asked Gonggong An to go to the treasury to select a few supplements and send them to the East Palace.

"Bad fate!"

The emperor couldn't sleep anymore and remembered his old past......

When Su Muling woke up, it was already noon on the second day, and Imperial Doctor Li, who was guarding the bedside, saw Su Muling wake up and hurriedly called someone to bring the medicinal food.

Xiao Wenxuan, who had been curled up on the kang all night, hurriedly jumped down, picked up Imperial Doctor Li and sat on the side of the bed. Nervously and happily asked her, "Ling'er, are you awake?" Does it still hurt in your face? ”

Su Muling nodded: "It hurts." ”

"Doctor, what's going on? Are there no pain medications? Xiao Wenxuan turned around and caught Imperial Doctor Li for training.

Imperial Doctor Li was wronged, and quickly distinguished:

"Prince, how could Miss Su's face not hurt with such a long wound...... Uh, I'm going to see if the medicinal diet is ready. ”

Imperial Physician Li met Su Muling's inquiring gaze, and suddenly realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, so he quickly got up and ran out of the door.
