Chapter 11: Shock
The early morning in summer is quite cool, especially in the imperial garden, the flowers and trees are quite luxuriant, the red smoke and green fog are beautiful, from time to time there are palace people walking back and forth, watering and irrigating all kinds of delicate flowers and plants or pruning branches, occasionally a breeze blows, as if the pores of the whole body are going to open, breathing this rare cool breath.
Next to the lotus pond in the imperial garden, Feng Qingxu was sitting on the swing, but she didn't let the palace people shake the swing, just shook her legs, bowed her head boredly and pulled the petals of the hibiscus flower in her hand, and the breeze rolled up the light yarn of her skirt, but she didn't realize it, and her mind had long been out of sight.
Xiao Yuning walked from a distance, and at a glance saw the thin figure on the swing, the delicate demeanor, and the unscrupulous shaking of his legs, all of which were still the appearance in his memory, as if everything was frozen in the year he knew her, and an indescribable emotion spread in Xiao Yuning's chest.
Xiao Yuning suddenly realized that he seemed to have not seen her like this for a long time, since when did Feng Qingxu still be by his side, but his life gradually moved away from her. She is forever frozen in the appearance of eight years old, but he is growing up, so although the two see each other day and night, they seem to be drifting apart.
Xiao Yuning will always remember the year when she first met her, she also sat on the swing like this, dangling her legs, bowing her head and pulling the petals in her hands, looking preoccupied. He curiously stepped forward to ask, but she tricked him into eating the flower in her hand, which looked beautiful and delicate, but it was so bitter in his mouth that his eyebrows and eyes were wrinkled together, but the wind laughed proudly, and finally laughed so hard that he almost fell off the swing.
He had never seen such a bright smile, and he felt as if the whole garden was illuminated.
The women around him, from the queen to the official women, are all subtle and gentle, even if the lively girls are also very measured, when facing him, it seems that the arc of the smile at the corners of all women's mouths is the same.
He was tired of remembering the flowing characters around him, but he remembered her in the moment when the wind laughed unbridledly.
"Who are you?" Xiao Yuning couldn't help but ask.
However, she ran away like the wind, leaving only an empty swing swaying in the air and her echo with a smile: "My name is Asu." ”
Asu.
The wind is light.
It was the first time he had been planted in her hands, but he was looking forward to the next encounter.
He later learned from his mother that she was the only disciple of Lin Ruoxu, the deputy city lord of Dream Back City, and the world-renowned wise Lin Ruoxu.
He listened to the queen mother's praise for her in a daze, and looked at the admiration for her in the queen's eyes, only to feel that the little person's imprint in his heart was deeper, and her sly smile slowly bloomed in his mind, bright as spring.
Xiao Yuning will always remember what she looked like when she married him that year, at the age of ten, he had learned to keep a straight face like his father and not smile, but his heart was happy.
He looked at her head covered with red veil, and walked slowly towards him, under the red veil, the crown princess between her black hair was faintly visible, ingenious, exquisite, and the crown had the pearls and gems he personally chose for her, each of which was worth a thousand gold.
He couldn't help but smile slightly, when he stretched out his hand to take her, he was a little nervous, in a hurry, her nails scratched his palm, a little painful, but he still held her hand tightly, her hand was a little cold, but the skin was very thin and soft.
At that time, he was still young and didn't know what love was, but he understood that she would be his crown princess in the future, and he would have one more person to accompany him, and they would grow old together like his father and queen mother.
He couldn't wait to lift her hijab to see his little bride.
Under the hijab, she is as plain as jade, under the crown of the brilliant crown princess, her young face is as white as the most beautiful white lotus in midsummer, she looks up at him, her eyes are as black as midnight, she smiled at him slightly, revealing fine white rice teeth, although her smile is not as unscrupulous as before, but it is also simple and cute, so that he can't help but smirk.
Xiao Yuning thought about it, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly, a warm current overflowed his chest, and then looked at the wind that was still gently shaking his legs not far away, he smiled slyly, and suddenly wanted to play a prank.
Feng Qingxu was still unconscious and lowered her head and pulled the petals, Xiao Yuning quietly walked behind her and hugged her violently, with a mischievous smile on her lips.
Feng Qingxu screamed as he expected, struggling with all his strength, waving his hands and feet, obviously greatly frightened.
Xiao Yuning hugged her tightly and whispered in her ear: "Asu, it's my ......"
"Ahh
Feng Qingxu was still screaming, the strength of the struggle did not weaken in the slightest, and the beads of sweat on his face kept rolling down.
Xiao Yuning saw her struggling so violently, afraid that she would hurt herself, so she hurriedly comforted: "Asu, Asu, look, it's me, A-Ning......"
The screaming and struggling of the wind did not stop, and her behavior was clearly out of control.
Xiao Yuning realized that something was wrong, and looked down, but saw that the wind in his arms was light, his eyes were scattered, his face was pale, and his expression was panicked, as if he had fallen into some kind of terrible memory.
Xiao Yuning also began to panic, and hurriedly hugged her tightly, and kept comforting her softly: "Asu is not afraid, Asu is not afraid, A-Ning is ...... here"
The surrounding palace people didn't know what was going on, and they all rushed over when they heard the sound, Xiao Yuning hurriedly shouted: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you go and ask the imperial doctor soon!" ”
After several palace people responded, they hurriedly ran to the Tai Hospital.
At this time, a clear voice came: "What's the matter?" ”
Xiao Yuning looked up and saw a long figure standing in front of him, it was a face that was somewhat similar to himself, his face was like the autumn moon, he was handsome, he stood there with the light on his back, the outline outlined by the warm rays of the rising sun was quite immortal, and a pair of bright and clear eyes were looking curiously at Xiao Yuning and the person in his arms.
Xiao Yuning recognized at a glance that the person in front of him was Xiao Yiting, the son of King Zhao, so he hurriedly shouted: "Yiting, save Asu, she was frightened!" ”
Xiao Yat-ting's expression was grim, he hurriedly leaned down, stretched out his hand like electricity, grabbed Feng Qingshu's wrist, and felt her pulse sensitively with his fingertips.
Xiao Yating didn't know what kind of trick he used, no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't break free of his fingers.
After a while, Xiao Yating quickly clicked on several acupuncture points on Feng Qingxu's body, Feng Qingxu's whole body sat up stiffly, out of Xiao Yuning's embrace, she no longer struggled but still screamed.
Xiao Yating instructed the remaining palace people: "You go and guard from a distance, and don't let anyone else get close." ”
As she spoke, Xiao Yiting took out the silver needle she carried with her and stabbed a few acupuncture points on Feng Qingxu's head, and her screams slowly lowered until she gradually quieted down and stopped making a sound.
Feng Qingxu's eyes were closed, her breathing gradually slowed, and her body trembled slightly, obviously much better.
Xiao Yuning silently watched Xiao Yating's skillful pulse cutting and needle application on the side, not knowing what was going on, he blamed himself for a while, and couldn't help but want to ask Xiao Yating, but Xiao Yating waved his hand lightly, signaling him to remain silent for the time being.
Xiao Yating had been observing Feng Qingfu's expression, and waited for about half a cup of tea, and saw that Feng Qingxu had calmed down, so he removed the needle and called softly: "Princess......"
Feng Qingxu opened her eyes in a daze, only to feel that there was a figure in front of her shaking, she tried to open her eyes wide to see the person in front of her, after a while, finally the vision was no longer dizzy, and in the blur, she saw the person in front of her in a gorgeous dress and a golden crown, with picturesque eyebrows, and vaguely the familiar face was smiling slightly at her.
"Aning ......" Feng said lightly and dryly, couldn't help but be sleepy, stretched out his hand and fell into the arms of the person in front of him.
Xiao Yating was startled, but Feng Qing's thin arm had firmly hugged his waist and fell asleep.
Xiao Yiting hurriedly raised his arm, his body was stiff, he didn't dare to touch the wind and lightness, he looked helpless, and the corner of his eyes unconsciously secretly looked at Xiao Yuning, he had clearly felt the cold breath coming from Xiao Yuning's body.
The dignified princess actually hugged another man in front of the prince...... If it weren't for the chaos that hadn't woken up at this time, she would have called Xiao Yuning's name again, but I was afraid that he would be divided into five horses and dismantled.
But even if it is the wrong person, this situation is unbearable for ordinary men, not to mention His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tianyuan Dynasty.
Seeing that Xiao Yuning's face was gradually turning blue, Xiao Yiting had to smile awkwardly: "Your Highness, rest assured, the crown princess is fine, but she was just stimulated, and she fell asleep when she was too tired, and she will ......wake up soon."
Xiao Yuning didn't say a word, and reached out to pull the wind light, but who knew that the wind and light wool hugged Xiao Yating tightly, and Xiao Yuning pulled it down, but he didn't pull it away.
Xiao Yiting was even more embarrassed when he saw it, and wanted to reach out to help Xiao Yuning, but he didn't dare to touch the breeze.
Fortunately, all the palace people have been separated by him, if others see the dignified princess falling into the arms of Xiao Yiting, the son of King Zhao, he will not be able to wash it even if he jumps into the Yellow River.
Xiao Yuning had a calm face, his fingers were forceful, and he broke away his hand little by little, pulling her away from Xiao Yating's embrace.
Feng Qingxu's body was so thin and fragile, as if it would shatter at the touch of it, so light that it seemed to have no weight, Xiao Yuning carefully picked up Feng Qingxu and walked quickly towards the East Palace.
Xiao Yating hurriedly followed, not caring about embarrassment, and kept explaining behind Xiao Yuning: "Your Highness, you can't blame me, the crown princess just treats me as your ......"
"Shut up." Xiao Yuning didn't look back.
Xiao Yiting naturally knew that Xiao Yuning was angry, from childhood to adulthood, Xiao Yuning was as gentle as jade, joy and anger were invisible, few things could make him angry, and now he looked like this, it was obvious how important the wind was in his heart.
But Xiao Yating really felt wronged: "Your Highness, you have also seen it, I saved the crown princess, you can't take revenge ......"
"I'm just pitying you." Xiao Yuning's footsteps didn't stop, just glanced at Xiao Yiting.
"Why?" Siu Yat-ting felt a little confused.
Xiao Yuning snorted, didn't bother to answer, and strode back to the East Palace.
Xiao Yiting didn't give up, followed closely behind Xiao Yuning, and looked like he wouldn't give up without asking about the result.
As soon as they saw Xiao Yuning coming to Jinghe Palace, Rose and the others hurriedly greeted him and saluted, but when they saw Xiao Yuning holding the sleeping Feng Qingxu in his arms, they were all startled, and asked anxiously: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, what's wrong with the Crown Princess?" ”
Xiao Yuning didn't answer, and walked straight towards the inner hall, and Xiao Yiting, who was behind him, saw this, coughed and said, "Your crown princess is suffering from heat stroke, go get some hot water to wipe her sweat, and pour some warm water down." ”
Rose and the others were stunned, they knew that the wind was the most afraid of the cold, and they didn't even wear single clothes in midsummer, how could they suffer from heat stroke?
But they also saw that Xiao Yiting was the person next to Xiao Yuning, although they felt that this person was very faced, but seeing that he was dressed luxuriously, he must be an ordinary person, and Xiao Yuning had never refuted it, so what he said was naturally credible, thinking of this, Rose hurriedly ordered Bai Lan and Du Juan to prepare, and she and Red Sakura were waiting by Xiao Yuning's side.
When Xiao Yuning walked into the inner hall, Rose and Red Cherry had already made the quilt, and he carefully placed Feng Qingfu on the soft bed, and personally covered Feng Qingfu with a thin quilt.
Xiao Yating stayed in the outer hall, jumping straight to his feet at this time, pacing back and forth non-stop. Xiao Yuning didn't bother to care about him, just looked at Feng Qingxu's fragile face and gently held her hand.
Feng Qingxu's hand was still so small, it seemed to be the size of his palm, and his warm fingers could easily wrap around her entire palm. Listening to the sound of her even breathing, Xiao Yuning's heart settled down and stared at her quietly.
Her face didn't seem to be as big as his palm, he could even see the hairs on her face, her facial features hadn't grown yet, her thin eyebrows, small nose, thin lips, forever staying at the age of eight. But Xiao Yuning knew what kind of pain her body would never grow up all the time, and he was distressed, but he couldn't do anything about it.
It's just that he didn't understand, he just scared her a little, why she reacted so strongly today. She had always been smart and fearless, he had never seen her so gaffe, was there something about her that he didn't know?
Siu Yat Ting paced around the outer hall, his curiosity was extraordinary, and if there was anything he wanted to know, he had to listen clearly. He didn't understand, why Xiao Yuning wanted to pity him, he saved Feng Qingfu, shouldn't he be thanked?
He waited patiently, and as soon as he saw Xiao Yuning coming out, he grabbed him and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you have to make it clear, why do you pity me?" ”
Xiao Yuning didn't want to pay attention to him, but when he thought of his character of not giving up until he reached his goal, he said, "Do you really want to know?" ”
Xiao Yiting hurriedly said: "Of course! ”
"Because Asu won't let anyone touch her except me."
