Chapter 111: Winter Sun
It was rare that Chang'an City was sunny again, and the light through the pane shone on Xie Ying's white face, and the bruises on her back had dispersed a lot, and she was able to lie down steadily.
She slowly opened her eyes, and suddenly saw Dongyang, which was still a little dazzling. She wanted someone to cover the pane.
"Ahem." Xie Ying didn't know how many days she had slept and her mouth was so dry.
Hongying, who got up early, was looking at the medicine jar, and Hongye cleaned the house every day, and immediately looked at Xie Ying lying on the bed when she heard the movement.
"Lady." Momiji called tentatively.
Xie Ying used the only strength he had, turning it slightly, and the futon made a sound.
The sight in the hall dimmed a little, but I saw a figure in front of the gauze screen also dangling in, and Hongye came forward to help her up and put a thick cloak on her, so that Xie Ying could see clearly.
"Fifth brother......" There was still some surprise in his hoarse voice.
Xiao Ke hurriedly took Hongye's hand so that Xie Ying could lean on him, and slowly fed the water into his mouth with his other hand.
Xie Ying quickly frowned and swallowed all the water.
"Fifth brother, why are you here?" Her voice cleared.
Hongying hurried over and looked at Xie Ying happily, "King Chen has been here these days!" ”
Hongye quickly glared at Hongying, and Hongying immediately quietly withdrew from the inner room, leaving only the two of them.
Every day after Xie Ying was injured, King Chen would come to the Northwest Hou Mansion to sit. Zhou also acquiesced to Xiao Ke coming to Huanhuatang to accompany her. Therefore, Xiao Ke came to feed Xie Ying medicine every day, and when he was fine, he sat in the front hall and read the books that Xie Ying liked to read every day.
"You ......" Xie Ying glanced at Xiao Ke, but she didn't know what to say, and after a while, she said duplicitously, "What if there are rumors outside?" ”
"Hasn't it already been passed on?" The corners of his mouth rested on her forehead, and Xie Ying felt it with that smile.
Unexpectedly, her cheeks flushed slightly, "Then I'm awake now, is the fifth brother still here?" ”
"If you don't wake up, I'll come every day." He put his arms around her, his tone slightly deep.
Xie Ying chuckled, very sweet in her heart. The two were silent for a while, and after the silence, he whispered in her ear, "It's okay, you're awake." ”
"How long have I been asleep?" She leaned back and asked obediently.
"It's been five days." Xiao Ke's tone was soft, and her gentle breath gently blew her sideburns, and her cheeks itched.
She then smacked her lips, "I haven't been seriously injured since I was in the army." ”
"Really?" He wasn't confirming, he was worrying, he didn't know how many injuries his little lady still had on her body, "It's me who is not good." ”
"What does it have to do with the fifth brother? Didn't I propose the competition myself, so that people could take advantage of it? Her wary voice gently soothed him.
Saying that, she quickly pouted her head, blinked and asked, "I've slept for so long, what happened?" ”
Xiao Ke tucked the quilt that was a little slippery for her, and said, "The queen used Pingcheng and her relatives to cover up this matter. ”
Her pupils shrank, her eyes showed puzzlement, and she thought for a while before she said, "Queen...... It was made by Princess Heijo. ”
King Chen told the story back and forth. Xie Ying sighed, "The Murong royal family can't move, so it's the only way to do it?" ”
"Your Majesty and I did use this to beat King Murong, but Yingying's words seem to mean something else."
Xie Ying nodded slightly, "As the fifth brother said, whether the platform has been tampered with or two." Why does one collapse only one part in one corner, but the other is the main one, which will cause the whole platform to collapse? ”
Xiao Ke thought about it for a while and knew that Xie Ying meant that this matter was done by two people, "Now I can't verify who moved the pillar." ”
She shook her head slightly, "It's okay. The matter has been suppressed, and she also knows who wants to attack her, whether it is Pingcheng or Murong Ji, they are the people who stand by the queen's side, and she has no doubts.
"It's a pity that these two people, I can't take their lives for you." Xiao Ke hugged her tighter.
Xie Ying shook her head, "I don't have much, and I don't want their lives, one will marry far away and the other will return to Hebei Province, just stay away from me." ”
She looked relieved, and Xiao Ke no longer pursued the matter.
"Fifth brother," she yawned, her little face still wrinkled. Xiao Ke's eyes were full of gentleness, "If you are sleepy, you can sleep again, I will guard you." ”
"Poof" Xie Ying laughed, she was in good spirits at the moment, "I'm hungry." ”
Xiao Ke also patted his head helplessly, and then called, "Red leaves, red tassels, the lady is hungry." ”
Hongying's footsteps were fast, lying behind the screen with only one head exposed, and she looked at her with a smile: "What does the lady want to eat?" ”
Momiji followed, and she ate a chestnut. Hongying scratched her head angrily, and Hongye stood there in a regular manner, Fuli said: "The lady has just woken up, and I will go to the kitchen hall to order some stomach-nourishing porridge." ”
After saying that, she glared at Hongying and left on her own.
Hongying stuck out her tongue at Xie Ying, and hurriedly walked away, not bothering them.
"You two people who carry you around, one is lively and the other is steady." Xiao Ke smiled.
Xie Ying glanced at him, but snorted softly, "Fifth Brother is more comfortable than me in arousing the two of them." ”
"That's because in the past few days, as soon as King Chen heard that the lady moved, he ......" Hongying answered, but was interrupted by King Chen, who was coughing with his face hidden at the moment.
She quickly glared at Hongying, "When did you learn to listen to the corner!" ”
Hongying scratched her head slightly, so she had to go outside, it turned out that the lady and King Chen were still thin-skinned.
When she walked away, Xie Ying asked the rest of the words, "What?" ”
She slyly sparkled eyes, the ambiguous atmosphere in the room, Xiao Ke's ears became more and more red, "Yingying, don't ask." ”
Xie Ying's eyes were even more starry because of his words, she had never seen the fifth brother speak so softly, and she was still a little excited in her heart.
After regaining some strength, she quickly turned over, knelt on the couch, draped in a cloak, and supported herself with both hands and stared at Xiao Ke tightly, the smile on the corner of her mouth became more and more enthusiastic.
"Fifth brother, are you shy?" She blinked, knowingly asking.
Xiao Ke gritted her teeth slightly, this little lady would really pick a time to tease him, causing him to get closer to her, and the warm breath fell on the tip of her eyebrows and nose, "What does Ying Ying think?" ”
Xie Ying shook her head slightly, but he restrained her jaw. She stared at him with innocent eyes again, and bit her lip lightly, "Fifth brother......"
Xiao Ke didn't give her this chance, and gently sealed her lips.
Her hand supporting herself also slipped slightly on the brocade quilt, as if she was about to send her into King Chen's arms. Xiao Ke also seized the opportunity to grab her, and Xie Ying's hands were on his shoulders.
Xie Yingren was small, gently leaning softly in his arms, and there was a fragrance on his body, which lured him and made him reluctant to let go.
The red leaves holding the porridge were not surprised by this, and the red tassels still opened their mouths wide......
