Chapter 53. First time in the palace

Almond finally saw what was looking outside the door.

The night sky is deep blue, and a crescent moon hangs high in the sky.

The man at the door carried a lantern, and the dazzling light illuminated the room, and the harsh light made Almond close his eyes.

It was only when she gradually got used to the light that she opened her eyes and saw the person who was coming.

It's Sheng Jingyu.

Sheng Jingyu was dressed in a black robe, blending into the night as if there was nothing.

Your Majesty is trying to hide people's eyes, right?

She had never seen His Majesty wear clothes of this color.

It's still ...... So good-looking......

Almond looked weakly wide, only to see him stop at the door for a long time before stepping in.

Only then did Almond notice that there was a man behind him.

The man was a man, but not a eunuch in the palace, and Almond had never seen him in the palace.

I only heard Sheng Jingyu say to him: "Take her away." ”

What do you mean?

Where to go?

Almond was puzzled, and there was a vague premonition in his heart, and even the joy of seeing Sheng Jingyu faded a lot.

She said weakly: "Your Majesty......"

Sheng Jingyu heard it, so she walked to the bed and squatted down to look at her.

His face was expressionless, but his eyes were complicated.

"He will take you out of the palace, maybe outside the palace is the safest."

Out of the palace?

Almond always wanted to get out of the palace before, but when it was really about to be realized, there was no imaginary joy.

However, now she can't help her, she has no choice.

Almond looked at Sheng Jingyu intently, as if he wanted to imprint his appearance deeply in his mind.

Tears unconsciously welled up in her eyes, and she thanked her softly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Sheng Jingyu said "um", got up and got out of the way, and the man on the side immediately understood and carried the almond on his shoulder.

Seeing that the man was about to stride away, Almond remembered something and struggled.

The man silently put her down, his face puzzled.

"Wait."

Almond propped himself up and held the box on the table in his hand.

The man cooperated and waited for her to take it before carrying her on his shoulders again, passing by Sheng Jingyu and leaving.

Almond looked at Sheng Jingyu's unchanged face, and didn't even look sideways at her when she left.

Seeing that he was about to leave the house, Almond said goodbye to him.

"Your Majesty...... Good bye. ”

Sheng Jingyu seemed to be moved, and her lips pursed even tighter.

But he still didn't come to keep her, and he didn't even want to give her a second look.

Sheng Jingyu's figure was getting farther and farther away, still standing motionless at the door.

The faint light that had just risen in Almond's heart gradually extinguished again, and was annihilated in the darkness.

Sheng Jingyu stood for a long time, until he could no longer see the back of the almond, then closed his eyes and hid the emotion in his heart.

But he should not stay for a long time, there are many people in the palace, and he left here quickly.

Now the night is extremely dark, and the moon that was still hanging on the branches before does not know where to hide.

There is no bright moon, no stars, it is extremely dark, and there is no trace of light.

It's like the heart of an almond at this moment.

This time out of the palace, the mood is completely different from the last time.

How excited she was then, how sad she is now.

She wasn't in the mood to take in the scenery around her, and she didn't even care where she was going.

It wasn't until the man carrying her stopped and put her on the bed that she held her eyelids.

"Lord Wang, someone brought it."

Rajah?

Almond's eyelashes fanned, and when he looked up, he saw the man who looked like a gentleman of green pines.

It's just that this gentleman is the same as Sheng Jingyu tonight, and he is dressed in black, just like two people on weekdays.

His eyebrows grew more and more gloomy, and he looked at her before he smiled.

"Almonds." He called her.

Sheng Guangji walked over, sat down on the edge of the bed, and reached out to her forehead.

Almond only felt a moment of coldness on his forehead, and his hand left.

"There is no fever, but you look weak."

Almond nodded weakly and called softly: "Lord Wang......"

She wanted to continue, but her throat was hoarse and her body was so weak that she didn't even have the strength to speak.

Sheng Guangji put his index finger in front of his mouth and "shhh

Then he immediately commanded the man beside him, "Fourteen, go and tell the kitchen to make a bowl of porridge with meat foam." ”

It turned out that the man who carried her all the way was called Fourteen.

What a strange name.

I saw Fourteen nod, still without saying a word, and hurriedly left the room.

The room was quiet, Almond couldn't speak, and Sheng Guangji was not reluctant, so he quietly stayed by the bedside.

Almond wanted to sleep again, and after closing his eyes for a while, he was groggy and almost unconscious.

Fortunately, the porridge came, Sheng Guangji helped her up and leaned on the back of the bed, and she opened her eyes weakly again.

The porridge is freshly boiled and a little hot.

Sheng Guangji took the porridge bowl, scooped some out with a spoon, put it to his lips and blew it tirelessly.

Then he took a small sip with his lips, and after making sure that it was not hot, he brought the spoon to the almond's mouth.

Almond saw the whole process in his eyes, a little hesitant and embarrassed.

It was drunk by the prince, although only in a small sip.

But men and women can't be taught clearly, even if they are friends, so they can't help but cross the line?

Sheng Guangji seemed to see her thoughts, and sighed faintly.

"Does Almond dislike this king?"

His eyelashes drooped and he looked injured, and Almond quickly shook his head when he saw this.

She wanted to speak, but remembered that she couldn't make a sound now.

I had to open my mouth and pause before I drank the porridge.

Prove by her actions that she didn't mean that.

Seeing her eat, Sheng Guangji smiled with satisfaction.

The taste of meat porridge is neither salty nor light, not thin or sticky, which is easy to swallow and fills the stomach.

Almonds hadn't eaten in a long time, and their stomachs were empty.

At this time, she endured the discomfort and drank the whole bowl of porridge one by one.

Fortunately, the hot porridge went down to the stomach, and the stomach was warm and warm, and it seemed to be much more comfortable.

In this way, Sheng Guangji tried the temperature one bite at a time, and after feeding the almonds affectionately, he spoke again.

"Only when you are full can you have the strength to rest, and when you rest, you can take care of your body, do you say?"

Almond had always thought that the prince was a man of few words, and they could only communicate a few words before, and they could count them on one hand.

Unexpectedly, in such a small intersection, the prince cared so much about her.

Needless to say, the prince's conduct was deeply benefited and moved.

She nodded, and answered Sheng Guangji as if she were answering.

Sheng Guangji put her to lie on the bed and covered her with the futon.

"You have a good rest, and this king will come to see you tomorrow."

As he spoke, he carefully tidied up the corners of the futon so that the wind could not penetrate it.

Almond was touched by his thoughtfulness, and her eyes turned red when she remembered the days of the walking dead these days.

She nodded slightly, holding back her snort.

After Sheng Guangji left, she closed her eyes, and two lines of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Can't say why.

Is it because Sheng Guangji was moved, or was he sad to leave the palace and leave that person's side.

Consciousness blurred, and Almond fell into a deep sleep again.
