Chapter 5: The Dark Life
The girl bit her lip slightly, obviously a little embarrassed, and then quickly knelt down, "The slave must stare at Her Royal Highness the princess and drink this medicine, otherwise, otherwise, the slave is afraid that Her Royal Highness will use this medicine bowl to do something stupid." ”
Chen Yuan only understood a little when he arrived here, why there was no tea cup on the table just now, it turned out that he was afraid that he would not be able to think of anything stupid, so he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth, directly took the medicine bowl, and drank the medicine in the bowl.
I originally thought it was just ordinary Chinese medicine, but I didn't expect the entrance to be extremely bitter, and I subconsciously frowned slightly, and just saw the candied fruit placed next to me, and hurriedly took one, which suppressed the bitterness in my mouth.
After putting down the bowl, I found that there was another jade box next to it, which was in the shape of a peony flower, extremely delicate and small, and was some light red paste, which looked like it should be used to treat the scars on the wrists.
The girl naturally saw her princess's gaze, and hurriedly took out the jade box, "This is a medicine specially developed by Imperial Doctor Shen to remove scars, let me take it to Her Royal Highness the princess." ”
Chen Yuan lowered her eyebrows slightly, and said in a cold and slightly soft tone, "I know, I also figured it out, I won't do stupid things anymore, I'll keep this box of medicine first, you can retreat first." ”
When the maiden heard this, she did not know what to say for a moment, but bowed and left.
Chen Yuan played with the jade box in the shape of a peony flower in his hand, not only was it useless, but he threw it into his sachet, maybe he would use it in the future.
Princess Qin'an is the daughter of the emperor of Qi and the first empress, and her mother died in childbirth, leaving only such a daughter. Empress Xian and Emperor Qi grew up together, with deep feelings, after losing the queen, not only did not establish a queen again, but also had high hopes for this daughter.
has been pampered since childhood, and I can't wait to put all my father's love on Princess Qin'an to make up for her lack of maternal love. At the beginning, it wasn't good, but in the later days, because he was too pampered, Qin'an's temperament gradually became rude, and he became willful, and there were things that didn't go well with him.
Although Qin'an said that he was not a good person, he had an advantage that he was very filial, no matter how arrogant and domineering he was outside, but when he was at home, he was still very obedient to his father, showing a well-behaved and sensible appearance.
Everyone in the Qi Kingdom knows that Her Royal Highness the princess not only does not abide by the etiquette law, but also likes to go in and out of the Qinglou Dance Hall, and also took the initiative to find a petty official as his future concubine.
Although these things are absurd in the eyes of many people, the emperor of Qi State let his daughter's temperament as if he couldn't see it, and only slightly blocked one or two things in the matter of marriage.
The person Qin An likes is indeed a Qinglou boy, but it's not an ordinary guy, but the top brand of the Drunken Immortal Building, the kind that doesn't sell his body.
Occasionally, Qin An was on the street as usual, but accidentally saw the face of the man under the veil blown up by the wind, and fell in love at first sight for a while.
It's just that she never thought that the beautiful woman she carefully pleased actually eloped with her maid, Qin An has always been arrogant, coupled with betrayal and pain, it seems that one slap after another was thrown on her face, and she committed suicide by cutting her wrists in a fit of anger. Fortunately, it was discovered in time at that time, otherwise I am afraid that there would be no medicine stone.
After the emperor of Qi learned of this, he was naturally furious and sent many subordinates to track down the whereabouts of the two, but there was still no eyebrows, obviously the two had been planning for a long time.
Chen Yuan couldn't help but sigh slightly, it seemed that not only was the life experience and treatment of the body very complicated, but even the relationship was not refreshing in this world, and it was a little more helpless for a while.
Chen Yuan couldn't help but shake his head, expelled these thoughts from his mind, and then dressed up hastily, painting himself a seemingly energetic makeup, what he had to do now was to find Zhou Mu quickly, if he really lost his breath, he was afraid that he would fail.
Although it is summer now, it is lonely and cold in the north after all, but it is with a trace of cold and solemnity. Although the sun is shining outside, it does not show people, but has a trace of sunshine and gentleness.
But there was one place that was different from the warm, bright and light of the rest, where it was dark and damp, and the sun could not shine through.
To the north of the Imperial Dining Room is a tall pile of firewood and grass, and a dilapidated little black house. It's hard to imagine such a dilapidated house in the midst of a luxurious palace, dark and damp, and usually just a few miscellaneous items.
In the cramp, damp, dark corner of the house was a bloodied figure, the air smelling of decay, and a few straw mats were haphazardly laid on the ground, with scattered coals and a little firewood.
Chen Yuan looked at it for a while before he reluctantly adapted to the environment here, saw the person huddled in the corner, and then hurriedly walked over.
After entering, I found that this person's body was not only full of whiplash marks, but his clothes were tattered, he was drawn into strips, covered in blood, and there were other miscellaneous marks on his body.
Chen Yuan felt that his heart was pinched fiercely in an instant, now that he was only a twelve-year-old child, how could he bear so much pain?
If you look closely, you can see that he is wearing a dirty single coat that cannot be seen in the original style, and he is now twelve years old, but he is thin like a child of seven or eight years old, and he is so thin that it seems that only bones remain.
There was a tattered bowl next to it, and there was a steamed bun that had begun to rot in the bowl, and there were some water-like things, but the water looked very muddy, and even dogs didn't want to eat such food, but the steamed bun was already missing, and the water had obviously been drunk.
As if he could feel that someone was coming, Zhou Mu frowned slightly, and his body began to tremble subconsciously, making people feel distressed involuntarily when they looked at it.
Chen Yuan pursed her lips slightly, she didn't know what to say now, and she didn't know how to explain why she was here, so she could only lower her eyebrows slightly.
