Chapter 51: Facing Yourself

Xiao Tian was frightened, Mei Shu was injured, and the scene fell into chaos for a short time, and then thanks to Zhao Youchen's cold face, he commanded the Praetorian Guards to maintain order and control the situation, and then escorted them back to Chengde Palace.

Originally, Xiao Tian still wanted to go to the council hall, but now he unconsciously touched his cold stomach with his hand and was obediently carried back.

Wang Xiang and others then came to investigate, and it took half an hour before and after.

In this half an hour, Xiao Tian was lying on the soft collapse in the warm pavilion of the front hall, and was carefully examined by Ming Xiuzai, and then gradually relaxed and thought.

She thought to herself a little self-deprecatingly, but in fact, she was still afraid of death. I'm afraid it's still the kind I'm afraid of.

If God hadn't given her another chance to live, or if she hadn't survived being poked in the stomach and then being led all the way south, she would have survived and been nourishing for so long, she probably wouldn't have been aware of this problem.

Maybe she will still feel that she is still as ignorant and fearless as when she first came into this world, without fear of life and death.

But today, when the knife was thrust down and she didn't even have the strength to dodge, she clearly felt her fear.

Familiar fears.

It was like returning to the Northern Capital Palace, which was shrouded in blood and fire, and she was terrified when she saw Taifu holding a sword and looking at people like mustard.

More frightening than that.

Because this time, the knife was aimed at her, and the man holding the knife looked at her with hatred.

She thought about the assassination in Taifu's Mansion again. At this time, she felt that she was possessed by something at that time, so she would behave so bravely.

Give her another chance, she wouldn't necessarily be so courageous.

However, even though she is afraid of death now and wants to live well, she has encountered all kinds of resistance, as if one roadblock after another is blocking her way of life one by one.

The feeling made her sit still.

If what the soldier said was true, and what national letter was also true, then Taifu must have been held back by the Beiban. The worst thing is that he himself is unconscious, and now he doesn't even know if he is conscious or not.

She is still alive and sitting in this position, all arranged by Taifu. He knows her best, and he is the only one she can trust and rely on the most. Even if it is a person like Zhao Youchen, although he has been loyal to her during this time, he has done his best. But if they knew that they were a woman, and they weren't their princess Xiao Yan, I'm afraid they would kill her as a monster or something right away, right?

And Wang Xiang and others ......

Even though there was chaos in the South School Field, her mind was not very clear, but she still noticed what she should have noticed.

Although the calmness of Wang Xiang and others can be said to be the demeanor of the old ministers, it also reflects their indifference to her, the emperor, and even the dynasty from another aspect.

Therefore, she is actually alone now.

He Shu and Mingxiu knew about her, but they couldn't be counted as the forces that could protect her. As long as they keep their mouths shut, there should be no danger of her identity being revealed in the short term.

She thought about it, no matter what way it was, it was impossible to exchange anyone for Taifu. Even if this "anyone" is a very large group of people.

As soon as she made up her mind, Wang Xiang arrived.

This time, neither Sun Jinyi nor Yu Zaiting came.

Wang Xiang bowed down to greet Xiao Tian how his body was, can he use medicine, etc., and then said that the two of them were still in the south school, and only he could not help much, so he quickly rushed to visit His Majesty.

After saying a few words, he asked if the afternoon competition was going on as usual, with a respectful attitude and a calm tone.

Xiao Tian thought for a while and said: "Although there are some small changes, the matter of the South Campus Competition has been decided a long time ago, if it is changed at will, I am afraid that it will be discredited, but it will be carried out well as usual." ”

Wang Xiang nodded yes, and asked about the national letter, asking Xiao Tian what he thought about the matter of Taifu.

This stabbed Xiao Ting's heart.

She confessed: "Da Xiao can't do without Taifu, Beiban wants to detain Taifu as an envoy when he sends a letter of state, which is too arrogant." ”

Wang Xiang agreed, looked at the "letter of state" a few times, and said: "Your Majesty, this is not like a normal letter of state, but like a private letter to Your Majesty." ”

Xiao Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since it's a private message, don't bother with it."

Wang Xiang presented the letter of state and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, it is better to discuss such a major matter." ”

Xiao Tian naturally has nothing to discourage it.

However, she said quietly: "Prime Minister, you are the old minister of the first dynasty who is highly respected by the ministers. Now that the Taifu is not here, I am panicked, and I am afraid that I will have to consult the prime minister more inside and outside. I hope that the prime minister will not give up. ”

Wang Xiang hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty has tormented the old minister." But if your majesty is motivated, the minister must do his best. ”

After Wang Xiang left, Mingxiu walked over gently, turned the incense burner burning in the room, and said, "Your Majesty, Mei Changshi's wound is not deep, the Tai Hospital has just been treated, and Mei Changshi has already fallen asleep." ”

Xiao Tian nodded and didn't speak.

Mingxiu felt a little guilty. At that time, it was obvious that she was closer, but Mei Shu reacted faster than her.

She always seemed sluggish to sense danger.

Seeing her expression, Xiao Tian smiled reluctantly and said, "What's the matter, what are you doing with a bitter face." ”

Mingxiu looked at the thin Xiao Tian nesting on the big dragon bed, looking very lonely.

Your Majesty must not be allowed to worry about himself.

Mingxiu thought about it, and hurriedly pulled out a smile and said, "I really want to know how far Your Majesty's medicine has been boiled." Slaves and maids go to see, Your Majesty should think less and rest more. ”

Xiao Tian nodded, and also felt a little drowsy, so he said in a low voice: "Mei Shu, you look at it more, she was injured all because she was trying to prevent disasters." ”

Mingxiu responded, turned around and walked out.

When she walked out, she was stopped by Zhao Youchen by the door.

Zhao Youchen traveled all the way, obviously from the south school field.

After he sent them to Chengde Palace, he quickly deployed defenses, turned around and went to the south school field.

"How is Your Majesty? Can you have a meal? Are you frightened? ”

Mingxiu said: "Your Majesty has just finished meeting Prime Minister Wang. The slave maid lit the incense, and at this moment, His Majesty is probably a little sleepy. Your Majesty is young, and thinking too much will affect your injuries, if General Zhao is fine, don't disturb Your Majesty. ”

Zhao Youchen relieved himself at this time.

His eyes narrowed, and he said in a low voice: "The matter of Taifu has spread, I'm afraid some people's eyes will not be good." You look at the things you eat on weekdays more to prevent villains. ”

Mingxiu was startled, but seeing Zhao Youchen's serious expression, he solemnly responded.

Zhao Youchen looked at her back as she walked out, and sighed in his heart. If Mei Shu hadn't been injured, she would naturally be the best at dealing with these things, right?

Mingxiu is a little younger in the end.
