Chapter Forty-Eight: How Did She Get Here?
I really can't help him.
Su Wan sighed and glanced at Chu Mohan; "Let's go!"
came to Su Muchen's room.
Su Muchen poured good tea for the two.
After hesitating for a long time, Su Muchen still decided to speak out and spoke; "Little sister, I have something I want to tell you."
Su Wan saw that his expression was solemn; "Brother, you have something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Su Muchen got up; "You come with me."
Su Wan got up and said to Chu Mohan; "You're waiting for me here."
Chu Mohan pouted; "I want to be with you too."
Su Wan coaxed like a child; "Nine Emperor Princes, if you wait here for me to come back, I will ask Xing'er to make you sweet and sour fish to eat when I go back."
As soon as he heard that there was something to eat, Chu Mohan nodded obediently; "I'll sit here and wait for you to come back."
Su Muchen took Su Wan to another room.
When Su Wan saw Xia Yunxi, who was lying on the bed with a pale face and no trace of blood, she was stunned.
Su Wan walked to the side of the bed, lifted Xia Yunxi's wrist, and touched her pulse.
Feeling her pulse beating, Su Wan let out a long breath.
She was really afraid that Xia Yunxi's pulse was not beating.
After steasing her mind, Su Wan looked at Su Muchen and said slowly; "Brother, what's going on?"
Didn't Xia Yunxi return to Xia Liang a long time ago? How could such a serious injury still appear here.
"I picked her up on the side of the road." Su Muchen said helplessly.
"What?" Su Wan was a little stunned; "Brother, you think this is picking up cats and dogs on the side of the road! It's a big living person, and ......"
Su Wan twisted her eyebrows and glanced at Xia Yunxi, whose face was as pale as paper; "Do you know who she is?"
Su Muchen's tone was very calm; "She should be the princess of Xia Liangguo!"
Su Muchen's tone was not very sure.
"Brother, what's going on?"
Su Muchen sat on the chair next to the bed and said slowly; "I was on the way back, I saw her lying in the snow on the side of the road, such a cold day, how could I watch her freeze to death in the snow, so I asked someone to help her into the carriage, I found that she was seriously injured, the reason why I knew that she was Princess Xia Liang was because of this thing."
Su Muchen took out something like a token from his sleeve and handed it to Su Wan.
Su Wan took the token.
The token is engraved with the word Xia Liang, and this token should be the customs clearance token of Xia Liang Kingdom.
"Although the clothes on her body are tattered, they are high-quality materials at first glance, and with this token, I guess she should be Princess Xia Liang."
"She is indeed Xia Yunxi, the princess of Xia Liang Kingdom." Su Wan was a little puzzled, Xia Yunxi should be in Xia Liang now! How could he be injured and fall on the side of the road.
"Little sister, can you do me a favor?"
"Brother, do you want her to live with me?"
Su Muchen nodded; "I'm a man, it's too inconvenient for her to live in my place, and I see that she is not lightly injured, there must be someone who wants to be unfavorable to her, think about it, I think the Nine Emperors' Mansion is the safest place."
Su Wan also thinks so.
Xia Yunxi was not lightly injured, and if she wanted to know what happened, she had to wait for her to wake up first.
"Brother, you can rest assured that you will hand her over to me."
Su Muchen nodded; "In order not to be discovered, I will send someone to send her to the Nine Emperors' Mansion at night."
Coming out of Su Muchen's courtyard, Su Wan looked preoccupied.
The hour was not early, Su Wan planned to go and talk to Qin Wanwan, and then go back to the prince's mansion.
When he walked to the garden, Su Luo's voice came from behind him; "Nine Emperor Princes, Third Sister."
Su Wan stopped, turned around, and looked at Su Luo, who was walking towards her with small broken steps.
Su Luo saluted Chu Mohan.
Su Wan asked with a smile; "Second sister, is there something wrong?"
"Third sister, are you going back?"
"Well, it's getting late."
Su Luo responded, and his hand touched the hairpin on his head intentionally or unintentionally.
Su Wan had already seen the ruby tassel hairpin on her head.
When she stopped her, Su Wan was still thinking about what she wanted to do, it turned out that she was going to show the hairpin on her head in front of her.
"Second sister, this hairpin on your head is really good-looking."
Su Luo lifted his chin triumphantly; "This hairpin is a gift from the third prince today."
Su Wan's eyes narrowed, it turned out to be the hairpin that Chu Moxuan gave her.
"It turned out that the third prince gave it to the second sister, and it can be seen that the third prince is different from others to the second sister."
Su Luo was very proud in her heart, Chu Moxuan treated her differently from others, and it seemed that it would not be long before she would become the third princess.
"Third sister, why did you bring such an inconspicuous hosta, how can the Nine Emperors not know how to buy you a few good-looking hairpins."
How could Su Wan not hear the mockery in her life.
The complexion is very calm.
I don't know why, every time Su Luo sees her so calm, a wave of anger rises in her heart.
Before Su Wan could speak, Chu Mohan spoke first: "It's just a broken ruby tassel hairpin, Wan'er has a lot of hairpins, I remember that when the queen mother first saw Wan'er, she gave Wan'er a red gold hairpin, which is inlaid with many gemstones, and each gem on it is much larger than the ruby on your ruby hairpin." ”
Su Luo's face immediately became ugly, the things that the queen rewarded were naturally all rare good things, and she was very unbalanced in her heart.
Chu Mohan continued: "I can see that you don't have any weight in the third brother's heart, such a shabby hairpin must have been bought casually by a roadside stall!" This white jade hairpin on Wan'er's head, but I ordered someone to buy it from the Eight Treasures Pavilion, although it looks very inconspicuous, it is the most expensive hairpin in the Eight Treasures Pavilion. ”
Su Luo's face became even more ugly, and the hands in his sleeves clenched slightly.
As soon as Chu Mohan said this, Su Luo felt that the ruby hairpin on her head was really a bit like it, bought casually at a roadside stall.
Su Luo tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and said with a soft smile: "There is no distinction between expensive and expensive things, it lies in the heart, this is a piece of the third prince's heart for me." ”
The smile on Su Luo's face was very soft.
Chu Mohan tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Since it is the third brother's heart for you, you can take it well, and show what you want, just like others." ”
Chu Mohan spoke mercilessly, and sometimes Su Wan felt that Chu Mohan was pretending to be crazy and stupid.
Su Luo's face was extremely bad, the worse her face was, the more happy Su Wan felt, who made Su Luo always find trouble for herself.
Chu Mohan looked at Su Wan: "Wan'er, let's go back!" Why are you standing here blowing the cold wind? ”
Su Wan nodded: "Let's go talk to my mother and go back to the prince's mansion." ”
After the figures of the two disappeared completely, the gentle smile on Su Luo's face had disappeared, replaced by an angry gaze.
Her hands clenched slightly, when she marries the third prince and becomes the third princess, she will definitely get back ten times or a hundred times the humiliation today.
As night fell, a carriage departed from the Prime Minister's Mansion and drove slowly in the direction of the Nine Emperors' Mansion.
After returning, Su Wan asked Xing'er to clean a guest room in her yard.
Ordered someone to carry Xia Yunxi into the room, and Su Wan instructed everyone not to mention today's matter to anyone, otherwise they would bear the consequences.
Fortunately, not many people know about it.
Su Wan asked Xing'er to boil some hot water and bring it over.
Su Wan untied Xia Yunxi's clothes and treated her wounds.
The wound has been treated simply and there is no infection or inflammation.
Xing'er walked in with the boiled hot water, and when she saw Xia Yunxi's body, there was a deep and shallow wound, and her hand shook with her hand, and the water in the basin almost spilled on the ground.
When Su Wan saw these wounds, she frowned, what did Xia Yunxi go through? There are so many on her body, and it is a miracle that she is still alive from the wounds left by the sword.
Su Wan asked Xing'er to put the water on the low table at the head of the bed.
She began to treat the wounds on Xia Yunxi's body.
Xia Yunxi had many wounds on his body, and in the second half of the night, Su Wan treated the wounds and bandaged them.
Su Wan wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.
"Princess, you must be hungry, the slave is ready for supper."
Su Wan glanced at Xia Yunxi, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, and ordered: "Send someone to take good care of her, and notify me as soon as she wakes up." ”
Back in his room, Chu Mohan hadn't slept yet, and when he saw her come in, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Wan'er, you've worked hard, hurry up and eat some supper, the supper made by Xing'er tastes really good." ”
Su Wan saw two bowls on the table, one of which was empty, presumably Chu Mohan's bowl.
Su Wan sat down and ate her supper.
Chu Mohan sat on the edge of the bed, waiting for her to sleep together.
Today she was really tired, ate supper, went to bed.
Chu Mohan blew out the candle and got into the quilt.
For a few days, Xia Yunxi showed no signs of waking up.
"Princess, this ...... Why hasn't this Princess Xia Liang woken up yet? . Looking at Xia Yunxi, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, Xing'er was a little worried.
Su Wan was also a little worried, the wounds on Xia Yunxi's body were slowly healing, and there was no inflammation, she carefully checked Xia Yunxi's pulse, her pulse was very stable, and she should have woken up a long time ago.
Su Wan sighed, it would be nice if Bi Feng was here.
Su Wan got up and told Xing'er to take good care of Xia Yunxi.
Because it was approaching the end of the year, the banquets in the palace continued, and as the Nine Emperor Princesses, Su Wan had to attend these banquets.
Today, Concubine Li Guifei invited several young ladies in the capital and several princesses to drink tea.
Su Wan didn't want to participate in this kind of banquet, for fear of being gossiped, so she had to bite the bullet.
The tea party was held in the Zhongcui Palace, where Li Guifei lived.
Although she had seen Concubine Li many times at the banquet, this was the first time Su Wan had seen her so closely.
Li Guifei, who is less than forty years old, is very well maintained, she looks like she is in her twenties, her skin is fair, and there is not a single wrinkle on her face.
Sitting with a few young ladies of sixteen or seventeen, they looked like sisters.
