"Yinghua Baojian" can be described as a strange book.

This book doesn't contain any academic questions, just for entertainment.

It has elegant rhetoric and vivid content, and appreciates beautiful men from all over the world with romantic but not obscene brushstrokes.

As a woman who is familiar with "Yinghua Baojian", Li Fengming has always felt that there is a big flaw in this book, that is, "there are no paintings in the book".

Therefore, she originally held a mood of shyness and curiosity, curiosity mixed with excitement, and planned to take a closer look at whether Xiao Mingche's "Qi Lang" figure was as pleasing to the eye as described in the book after removing his shirt.

But when Xiao Mingche's back with new wounds and old marks was exposed in front of her eyes, those heartless curiosity and excitement disappeared in an instant.

Although he had long guessed that Xiao Mingche was not having a good time, seeing these marks of suffering with his own eyes, Li Fengming was so sympathetic that he couldn't help but want to tear bitter tears. "It's all ...... How did you get hurt? ”

"Where is the left shoulder? was cut by the Song army. ”

In fact, in addition to the two stab wounds on his left shoulder, he also had small old marks on his back that were clearly caused by different objects.

Although it was not as hideous as the two stab wounds on his left shoulder, it was messy and dense. It was shocking and distressing to watch.

Li Fengming pursed his lips and asked in a low voice, "Then, what about the others?" ”

Xiao Mingche, who was lying on his stomach, did not look back. "It's all about hours, and I can't tell how they came about."

It's not that I don't remember, it's that I can't tell the difference.

In other words, the number of beatings is too frequent, so it is impossible to tell which wound is left which one.

Li Fengming choked, "It's all before I was brought to the palace, right?" ”

Judging from many clues, after the Empress Dowager received Xiao Mingche to the palace, although she did not care for him meticulously and eagerly, she provided food, clothing, housing, transportation, study and martial arts according to the regulations of a normal prince.

"Hmm."

Li Fengming pinched the needle and prepared to pick out the thorns for him, but when he heard his soft response, he couldn't do it for a long time.

Because her heart is unsettled and her hands are unstable, she has to take it slowly.

She took a deep breath, "Qian Zhaoyi treated you like this before, does your father know?" ”

Xiao Mingche said lightly: "Sometimes I know. ”

Li Fengming became more and more upset with Xiao Ming when he was a child, "He knows and doesn't care?!" ”

"It doesn't matter if it's snowy." Xiao Mingche has no sorrow or joy, and understates it.

Li Fengming pressed his fingers against the corners of his slightly moist eyes, once again confirming that Emperor Qi was definitely a madman at least when he treated Xiao Mingche.

Looking at the world today, every country has an unfavored heir. But no matter how unfavored he is, he is also the heir of the emperor.

According to common sense, it is nothing more than a point of being left out in the cold, a point of material shortage, a point of lack of power, and a point of uncertainty about the future. That's the worst of all.

Anyway, Li Fengming has grown up so big, and he has never heard of an emperor who would condone others to abuse his young heirs in this way.

Li Fengming asked an abrupt question softly: "I saw other people taming elephants when I was a child. Have you seen it? ”

Xiao Mingche shook his head.

"When the elephant is young, it lacks strength, and it is bound by a rope chain, and it is difficult to break free when it is beaten, and it becomes natural to get used to it over time. When it grows into a behemoth, it usually won't resist unless it encounters a strong inducement.

Because of the pain and helplessness experienced as a child, it will mistakenly think that its strength is never enough to break free from the chain. ”

Xiao Mingche's situation is probably similar. Li Fengming wasn't sure if he understood the meaning of his words.

She sighed and blurted out "It's a pity ......"

"What a pity?" Xiao Mingche looked back.

She smiled perfunctorily, full of regret.

It's a pity that you were unlucky, and you didn't meet Li Fengming, who had the ability to protect the weak behind you.

The fine needle picks out the thorns, which seem to be light, but in fact, it hurts just by looking at them.

Li Fengming, who was holding the needle, frequently gasped, "hissed" non-stop, and had to close his eyes slowly after picking two or three times.

On the other hand, Xiao Mingche really deserves to be a person who has been on the battlefield, and he has never snorted from beginning to end.

After picking out all the thorns, Li Fengming trembled his throat and warned, "It's time to apply medicine." This ointment has a taste of nocturnal incense added to it, oh, it is the 'mint' that you Qi people say, and if you rub it on the wound, it may hurt a little. It's really a little bit. ”

It's weird. She has used this medicine herself, who knows who hurts.

"Hmm." With this single note, Xiao Mingche's back line visibly tightened with the naked eye.

Li Fengming swallowed his saliva, "In front of me, I haven't taken care of anyone so much since I was a child, and my hands are raw." If the force is heavy, you shout to stop, don't eat the pain and hit people with your backhand. ”

"No, it won't."

With the assurance that he would not beat people indiscriminately, Li Fengming dipped the ointment in his fingertips, and gently wiped it on his wounds.

Xiao Mingche had nothing unusual except for the stiffness of his back.

But Li Fengming was unproductive, and he "hissed" and gasped.

Usually when people endure pain, they can't hear others helping them on the side. This will make the pain that can be endured invisibly magnified, and it will really help more and more.

Taking advantage of the gap between her reaching out to dip her hand in the ointment again, Xiao Mingche finally couldn't bear it anymore, "Li Fengming, are you the reincarnation of the snake spirit?" ”

Now Li Fengming is full of sympathy and love for him, so not only does he not care about him, but also treats him as a child, and softly coaxes, "Okay, okay, I won't 'hiss'." ”

She remembered that if she bumped into her as a child, she would be blown when someone gave her medicine, as if that would help relieve the momentary stinging pain caused by the ointment.

So after applying the medicine again, I blew it on my mouth.

Unexpectedly, this blowing action made Xiao Mingche like a fried little beast, flipping his body, sitting up and facing her.

The lights in the bedroom were glowing softly yellow, but Xiao Ming's face was flushed red from nowhere.

The beautiful peach blossom eyes were filled with a faint warning, and the amber pupils reflected Li Fengming, who was also red-faced.

"Don't blow around." As he spoke, he frowned at Li Fengming's unexplained embarrassment.

Li Fengming slowly and sluggishly twisted his head to the side, forcibly calming down, "Got it." You, get back on your stomach. ”

Xiao Mingche lowered his eyes slightly after seeing his smooth chest......

"Bang" and fell back on his stomach.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Li Fengming forcibly ignored the hot heat on his face that was about to smoke, and coaxed people with a clear conscience, "Actually, I didn't see anything." Really, you believe me. ”

It's better not to say that.

Xiao Mingche's back was stretched to the bulge, and the hands placed on his sides were clenched awkwardly.

His posture is tantamount to saying all over his body, believe that you have a ghost.

In the suffocating silence, Li Fengming continued to apply the medicine, holding his eyelids as hard as possible in the process, not daring to blink frequently.

Because every time she blinked, there would be an afterimage in the darkness that made her blush and her heart beat with excitement.

Until he went to bed at night, Li Fengming's heart was still pounding as long as he thought of that picture.

She lay in the dark tent, raised her hand to cover her mouth tightly, but she couldn't stop the self in her heart who had never seen the world and screamed madly-

It's almost the same as what is written in "Yinghua Baojian"!

Although Xiao Mingche's back was intertwined, making people feel pity when they looked at it, he turned around......

It is actually the kind of "mind" that has both strength and beauty, which is different from that of women, and is written in "Yinghua Baojian"!

It's pleasing to the eye, it's really pleasing to the eye!

Li Fengming blushed and snickered silently, and even shook his head involuntarily.

She felt that her movements were very light, but Xiao Mingche beside her was disturbed and uneasy. "What's the reward?! Sleep honestly. ”

Li Fengming was stunned, "Uh, I'm ...... Spoke up? ”

The pillow man replied with a cold snort.

"Huh. Ha ha. I didn't mean to offend, and the first time I saw it, I couldn't help but feel a little excited. ”

Li Fengming laughed dryly again and again, and changed the topic very bluntly.

"That, you, I...... My dowry contains a grease that removes scars and muscles, and it is also effective for old wounds, but it will take a long time to completely eliminate them. When I get back to the Huaiwang Mansion, I'll give you a can to try first. ”

"Not necessarily." Xiao Mingche turned over and turned his back to her in the dark.

In fact, when he said these two words, he did not accentuate his tone, nor did he have too obvious hostility, but for Li Fengming, it had the effect of "pouring cold water on the head".

She stared at the swarthy tent for a long time, and said in a low voice, full of doubts, "His Royal Highness King Huai, it stands to reason that after today's events, we should at least have more friendship and mutual trust, right?" ”

Thinking about it now, since leaving the Purple Pole Garden in the afternoon, Xiao Mingche's attitude towards her has been indescribably strange.

Xiao Mingche did not answer her question.

This made her more and more confused, "Did I make a big deal and ruin your original plan?" ”

But wasn't his original plan to "help Emperor Qi settle the matter by beating him in exchange for the opportunity to win Xia Wang's soldiers"?

She made a big deal out of the situation, not only did she get what he wanted, but also prompted Emperor Qi to shorten his lockdown period and help him get the crown prince and queen as temporary allies......

Thinking about it this way, it shouldn't have hurt him, right? So what is he upset about?

Xiao Mingche still didn't answer her.

In this way, both of them remained motionless, silent with their own hearts, and gradually became sleepy.

Xiao Mingche dreamed that he was standing in the snow again.

But before the blink of an eye, the world turned from cold and white to hunting red.

It's as red as Li Fengming's robe embroidered with the double-headed phoenix of Chuyun.

Blazing and insolent, it seemed to burn all the cold, and warm him all around.

Behind him, Li Fengming's laughing voice came Xiao Mingche, I said I will help you, do you believe it?

Xiao Mingche had two voices arguing in his heart, one said "believe" and the other said "don't believe", and they were inconclusive for a long time.

After a long time, he took a deep breath and slowly turned back with hesitant temptation.

He saw the silhouette of Li Fengming standing under the tree wrapped in the fire fox Qiu Dayu.

She raised her eyes and smiled like a flower—

Three or five steps away from her, stood his imperial brother, Xiao Mingxuan, the prince of Great Qi.

The crown prince is the prince of the country, and his status is naturally half a head higher than the rest of the imperial heirs.

Even with a strong opponent like King Heng, Xiao Mingxuan can still easily enjoy the best in the world on the bright side.

Xiao Mingche needs to use himself as a bet again and again to be able to exchange for some inconspicuous opportunities.

For example, he needs Prince Jin to consolidate his insignificant position in the court and secure some leverage for his future survival.

So he had to accept the marriage with his relatives.

For another example, he needs to fight for the opportunity to select talents in this year's "Xia Wangzhi", so that he can gradually plump up his wings and end the situation of fighting alone in Yongjing City.

So he had to help his father take down the matter of honesty, and he was beaten by Qian Baonian for nothing.

But the crown prince Xiao Mingxuan doesn't have to put too much effort, doesn't have to use any clumsy methods, doesn't have to put himself in an embarrassing situation, he can get the priority of all opportunities, and there will be a steady stream of capable people with lofty ideals who flock to him to serve.

The marriage of Qi Wei was originally promoted by the crown prince, and he was originally the candidate for marriage on the side of Qi State.

Xiao Mingche was not sure if Li Fengming knew about this matter.

If people are given a choice between Xiao Mingche and Xiao Mingxuan, it seems that individuals will be more willing to choose the latter.

Xiao Mingche in the dream couldn't make a sound.

In fact, he really wanted to say, Li Fengming, thank you for protecting me today.

Although, you're probably not really here for me. Or rather, it's not just for me.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Fengming rubbed his eyes and sat up, and when he turned his head, he saw Xiao Mingche's face that was obviously not sleeping well.

"His Royal Highness King Huai, you look so glaring at me coldly," Li Fengming muttered softly, "Didn't you sleep well last night?" I'm arguing with you? ”

Because they refused to keep someone in the dormitory for the night, the two became more and more familiar these days, and their words and deeds in the dormitory became less restrained day by day.

Xiao Mingche lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and said lukewarmly, "You turned over and crossed the line five times in one night." ”

And the five times he crossed the line, he was "moving his hands and feet". Either the hand was on his waist, or the leg was close to his leg.

Li Fengming didn't think he was bluffing, so he thought about it with his messy long hair, and muttered embarrassedly, "It seems that I had a very intense dream, but I can't remember what it is." ”

She paused for a moment and looked up at Xiao Mingche's faintly unhappy back.

"I'm sorry. I sleep very well, you know. ”

"Hmm." Xiao Mingche turned around and took his shirt.

Many people have a big temper when they don't sleep well, Li Fengming felt that he disturbed his good dreams last night, and then thought that he had to ask him to borrow a reliable workshop under the name of Huai Wangfu, so he smiled with Soft.

"You endure it for another half a month, and when you return to Huaiwang's Mansion at the beginning of next month, we can sleep in separate rooms."

She was sincerely relieved and wanted to make him feel better.

But she didn't see Xiao Mingche frozen in front of the cabinet when she heard this, and she wouldn't know......

He was in a worse mood.

Although, he didn't understand what he was unhappy about.
