Chapter 8: You Are Valuable to Me
The night was long, Song Jiu woke up from a deep dream, she had a terrible headache, the bones in her body seemed to be falling apart, Song Jiu got up from the bed in a daze, she was very thirsty, and wanted to get out of bed to get a glass of water to drink, but as soon as her body moved, she found that her hands were tied with long silk scarves, and there was a sharp pain in her wrists.
"This ...... What's going on! ”
Song Jiu tried hard to recall what happened last night, but her memory was very vague, and she only vaguely remembered that she had been sticking to Gu Shengan, and in the end, Gu Shengan couldn't stand her, so he tied her up, and the more Song Jiu thought about it, the redder her face became.
"Are you awake?"
Gu Shengan's deep voice came from overhead, Song Jiu suddenly raised his head, because the two were too close, she hit his chin directly, Song Jiu apologized while covering his head, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't hurt you, right?" ”
Gu Shengan looked at her recklessness, and sighed helplessly, "I'm fine, but you're ......"
Gu Shengan sat down as he spoke, took off the silk scarf from her hand, looked at the bloody wrist, and asked softly, "Does it hurt?" ”
Song Jiu stared at his eyes, seeing that the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were gentle, he was a little stunned for a while, "No...... It doesn't hurt! It took a long time for her to reply.
Gu Shengan took out a bottle of medicine from his sleeve pocket, carefully poured it on the wound, then took a white cloth and bandaged both of her wrists, he stuffed the bottle of medicine into Song Jiu's hand, and advised: "Be careful not to touch the water with your hands, change the medicine once every three hours." ”
After Gu Shengan finished speaking, he stared at Song Jiu, and seeing that she was completely confused, he reached out and tapped her forehead.
"Got it?" He leaned over and asked in her ear.
He was so close to Song Jiu, the hot breath of his breath hit Song Jiu's neck, sour, and Song Jiu couldn't help but shiver.
"Got it!" She hurried back.
Song Jiu hurriedly stood up, she stretched out her hand and pushed Gu Shengan away, "Taifu, I'm thirsty and want to drink saliva." ”
Song Jiu walked to the table, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea and was about to drink it, when Gu Shengan rushed over, Song Jiu was dumbfounded, she said: "Taifu, if you want to drink, there are so many in this teapot, why do you have to rob me." ”
Gu Shengan glanced at her and replied, "Last night's!" ”
"What ...... yesterday"
Song Jiu didn't finish speaking, and then reacted to Gu Sheng'an's meaning, "You mean this tea was from last night?" ”
Gu Shengan nodded, and then gave her a blank look, "You are really stupid, you don't even understand the truth that you can't drink overnight tea." ”
Song Jiu put down the tea in her hand awkwardly, she was about to open the door and tell the palace maid to prepare a new pot of tea, Gu Shengan walked out one step ahead of her and asked Lin Sang to make tea.
Gu Sheng'an closed the door of the palace again, he stared at Song Jiu for a long time, and then asked, "Why did you fall into the fragrance yesterday?" ”
"It was made by the Empress Dowager Fu, she wanted me and Fu Zhirou to cook rice and rice, and then forced me to make Fu Zhirou the queen."
Gu Sheng'an was immediately annoyed, and said coldly: "Empress Dowager Fu, this old witch, I have warned her many times to tell her not to fight the idea of the queen's position, but I didn't expect her to use such dirty means instead of giving up......
"That's it...... Empress Dowager Fu is really too insidious. Song Jiu echoed in a low voice.
Gu Sheng'an swept towards her with an unkind face, "You know that she is sinister, but you still dare to drink her tea?" ”
"I ......"
Song Jiu lowered his head in shame, "Careless." ”
Gu Shengan sighed again, "That's it!" You can't really be expected to have a brain. ”
Gu Sheng'an looked serious, "During this time, you stay in the Zhongyuan Hall honestly, and you are not allowed to go anywhere without my permission." ”
"But I still have to go to ......the court," Song Jiu said weakly.
"I will tell the public that you have been seriously injured in the Golden Soup Pavilion and need to leave the court for a while."
Song Jiu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Gu Shengan glared at her again and said, "Your Majesty, you also know in your heart that it is the same whether you go to court or not, and you can't decide anything." ”
Song Jiu's eyes were a little dim, she laughed at herself, and replied: "What Taifu said is true, this major matter in the court and China is up to Taifu alone. ”
Seeing that she was unhappy, Gu Sheng'an eased his face, "I won't let you leave the Zhongyuan Palace, it's also for your safety." ”
Song Jiu was puzzled, "What danger can I have, if you say that Empress Dowager Fu is uneasy and kind, then I will stay away from Yong'an Palace in the future." ”
"It's not Empress Dowager Fu's problem." Gu Shengan said in a deep voice: "When you were in the Golden Tang Pavilion, did you see clearly who set the fire in the palace?" ”
Song Jiu thought about it seriously for a while, shook his head, and said, "It's a man in black, his whole body is tightly wrapped, I can't see his appearance clearly." ”
"Did you notice any of his traits then?"
"He seems to have injured his right hand."
Song Jiu recalled: "At that time, the man in black was rummaging behind the medicine cabinet, and he always used his left hand. ”
"Anything else?"
"No more!" Song Jiu replied honestly.
"That is, you don't even know who wants to kill you."
Gu Shengan opened his mouth and said: "There is a person hiding in the dark who will kill you at any time, so you should be obedient and hide obediently in the Zhongyuan Palace, and I will tell Lin Sang to protect you." ”
When Song Jiu heard him say this, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but ask, "Taifu, why do you want to protect me again and again?" ”
Gu Sheng'an frowned slightly, he stared at the jade on Song Jiu's chest for a long time before he spoke, "Of course, it's because you are valuable to me." ”
Song Jiu smiled to hide the loss in her heart, and she laughed at herself: "I forgot that Taifu needs me as a puppet." ”
Gu Sheng'an noticed the change in her mood, he opened his mouth to explain something, but Song Jiu said again: "Taifu, please leave!" Don't worry, I will listen to you and stay in the Zhongyuan Hall honestly! ”
Gu Shengan swallowed back the words on his lips, and he said coldly: "This is the best, you remember, I only need an obedient puppet." ”
Song Jiu smiled coldly and replied, "I don't need to be reminded by Taifu. ”
Song Jiu walked to the door as he spoke, and directly opened the door of the hall, "Taifu, please!" ”
Gu Sheng'an's face changed when he saw her move, but he didn't say anything, he flicked his sleeves and walked out, Song Jiu wanted to close the door of the palace casually, but Gu Shengan suddenly folded back, he held down the door, and looked at Song Jiu fixedly, only looking at Song Jiu with a hairy heart.
"What else is going on with Taifu?"
Gu Shengan slowly approached her, Song Jiu was nervous for no reason, his hands rolled up the corners of his clothes, Gu Shengan lowered his head, getting closer and closer to Song Jiu, Song Jiu unconsciously closed his eyes, Gu Shengan saw her action, teased, he reached out and pulled back the coat that Song Jiu had slipped down to his shoulders, "Your Majesty, pay attention to your appearance!" ”
After Gu Shengan said this, he turned around and left.
