Hongling gritted her teeth and endured the pain in her body, Xiuxiu followed her back to her courtyard, Hongling shook her body and almost fell, Xiaoqingyan quickly supported Hongling, and wondered: "Miss, why did you finish class so quickly today?" Hongling patted her hand and slowly moved towards the dormitory. As soon as Xiaoqing lowered her head, she saw the water stains on Hongling's body, frowned slowly, and let Xiuxiu help her, and ran in to prepare cotton towels and clothes first.

Hongling squeezed Xiuxiu's hand tightly and said, "Thank you."

Xiuxiu's heart trembled, since she entered the house, she had never heard anyone thank me, and I was the only one who thanked others, not to mention that this was what I had to do. Seeing Hongling's sincere appearance, Xiuxiu's heart warmed even more, if the previous kindness was due to unwarranted intuition, then now, she really realized the concern from her mother.

Hongling entered the hall, Xiuxiu Ping retreated from anyone other than Xiaoqing, entered the chamber and took a bottle of medicinal wine out, Xiaoqing took off her coat for Hongling, and the mottled bruises were engraved on her back, Xiaoqing was shocked, "Miss, this, this...", Xiaoqing trembled and touched it lightly, "Hiss~" Hongling pulled the corners of her mouth in pain.

Xiuxiu sighed slightly, stepped forward and said: "Niangniang, I'll wipe the medicine bar for you", Hongling waved her hand and said: "No need, save a while to be smelled by that old monster", Xiuxiu lowered her eyebrows, gritted her teeth and said: "Niangniang, you can't fight him, everything goes according to him, and you don't need to suffer such a big crime."

Hongling didn't make a sound, Xiaoqing dipped Hongling's back with a cotton towel with red eyes, and finally couldn't get down, Xiaoqing bit her lip and asked in a trembling voice: "Miss, it hurts, right?" Hongling patted Xiaoqing's hand slightly, shook her head, Xiaoqing's tears burst out, Xiuxiu took the cotton towel in Xiaoqing's hand, "I'll come."

After a while, Hongling changed her clothes and was about to go back to Chen Jinye's courtyard to continue the class, Xiaoqing grabbed Hongling and said, "Miss, you just let me go, if you want to be punished, let him punish me."

Hongling shook her head, "Don't make trouble Xiaoqing, I'm fine"

Xiao Qingyu cried suddenly: "Miss, don't you dislike me? Xiaoqing is just worried..."

Hongling sighed, touched Xiaoqing's head and said, "Look at you, you love to cry so much, won't it make the master even angrier when the time comes?" ”

Xiaoqing hurriedly wiped away her tears, raised her head and gritted her teeth, and looked at Hongling eagerly.

Hongling was amused by her appearance, and said, "You, just help me prepare the wine and food, and when I come back, it's just a moment."

Xiaoqing saw that Hongling was determined not to take herself, so she wiped her tears again and said, "Then, that young lady, go and come back quickly."

Hongling nodded, and took Xiuxiu to Chen Jinye's place.

"See Father-in-law Xu" Hongling bowed, Father-in-law Xu said indifferently: "When you come back, continue to practice the ritual of sitting", Hongling obediently bowed her head and sat upright on the chair, not crooked, not arrogant or impatient.

Gonggong Xu stared at it for half an hour, Hongling was stunned and didn't move, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, but she hummed in her heart, you can survive today, you can survive tomorrow, and you can still survive the day after tomorrow?

......

As time passed, the sky gradually darkened, Xu Gonggong touched the teacup in his hand, and said lightly: "That's the end of today", and then flicked his sleeves and left with his hands behind his back.

Hongling watched him go out of the door, slowly raised her hand, "Xiuxiu help me", Xiuxiu hurriedly stepped forward to help Hongling, and the moment she touched Hongling's body, Xiuxiu tightened her eyebrows, and her mother was already trembling tiredly.

Back in the courtyard, Xiaoqing had already prepared warm water, Hongling exhaled comfortably when she didn't enter the water, slowly closed her eyes, and her lips opened slightly: "Xiuxiu, do you know why Grandpa Xu is like this?" ”。

Xiuxiu paused and said: "Gonggong Xu has been waiting by the side of the former emperor for many years, and since the death of the first emperor, he has been in charge of the maidservants and eunuchs in the palace.

When night fell, Hongling wiped the medicine and wine and lay on the bed early, Xiaoqing pulled Xiuxiu to the courtyard and asked, "Why was Miss beaten like this?" Xiuxiu's eyes trembled, and said, "Father-in-law Xu didn't like him because of his mother's sitting...", Xiaoqing stared at Xiuxiu angrily and said, "Then why don't you stop it?" ”。

Xiuxiu shook her head, put her hand on Xiaoqing's shoulder, and said: "This is not a heavenly spectrum, Niangniang doesn't have so much protection, every step has to be very careful, all we can do is to help Niangniang hold the edge, if people feel that everyone is towards her, it will definitely make people jealous", Xiaoqing was stunned when she heard it, Xiuxiu said again: "That day Niangniang humiliated the Luo family, the Luo family will definitely not give up, the Luo family is powerful and even the Son of Heaven is also a little jealous, I don't know if today's events are related to this, but if you really want to be good for the mother, You must always remember not to be too ostentatious."

Xiaoqing's eyes were slightly red, "You're right, I shouldn't drag Miss back", Xiuxiu patted her and said: "Niangniang knows you so well, I definitely don't want you to get involved in it and be hurt, so I won't take you, you don't want to live up to Niangniang's hard work", Xiaoqing hugged Xiuxiu sadly, and sobbed: "Miss is always like this, always unwilling to let the people around her worry, this is what worries me the most."

Xiuxiu sighed and coaxed Xiaoqing, until Xiaoqing also fell asleep, Xiuxiu came out of Hongling's courtyard and jumped into Chen Jinye's courtyard.

"Lord Qi, today Father-in-law Xu, he ......"

Chen Jinye interrupted: "I know about this matter, eighty percent of it was the Luo clan who made the ghost, fortunately, she didn't have a chance to be drugged, but this flesh and skin suffering, can only let the princess suffer first, you mention her on the side, let her resist less, so that she can suffer less."

Xiuxiu pursed her lips and asked, "Doesn't the prince plan to help Niangniang?" ”

"Now is not the time"

"Mother, she, she's very badly injured"

Chen Jinye pursed his lips, closed his eyes and sighed, and after a while, he slowly took out a jar of ointment from his arms, and said, "You take this to apply it to her, remember not to say that it was missed."

Xiuxiu glanced at Chen Jinye in surprise, "This, this is not ......", Chen Jinye waved his hand and asked Xiuxiu to retreat, and Xiuxiu retreated silently.

Xiuxiu looked at the ointment in her hand in a daze, this is the prince who visited the Jianghu doctor when he was studying in the Jiangnan area, and the legend is that it took five years to get this small jar, and the prince begged for the doctor for a few months before he got this bottle, which is even more cherished, but now, it is ......

Taking advantage of the night, Xiuxiu sneaked into the Hongling Palace, lit a sleeping hole, and carefully wiped the ointment on the mottled parts of Hongling's body......
