Chapter 7: The Man Who Fell into a Dream
"Yufei?"
Suddenly hearing someone softly calling his name, Kang Yufei was shocked, and turned his head around in a panic, but he didn't see anyone, only there seemed to be movement on the bed.
"Yufei, is that you?" Sure enough, there was a man lying on the bed. Kang Yufei was annoyed that he hadn't checked the situation in the room in a hurry.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, are you awake?"
Someone outside the room spoke to this, but a few simple words made Kang Yufei cold from head to foot, Your Highness? In this palace, the only one who dares to live in Qiansheng Palace and can be called His Royal Highness is Prince Jinglin, who is in charge of the country.
I accidentally fell into the tiger's den. Kang Yufei's limbs were cold and couldn't move, she didn't know how to explain all this today, if she was charged with assassination by the prince, then she would lead the Zhenbei Hou Mansion to the point of no return.
"Your Highness, it is said outside that two eunuchs of unknown origin have entered the Qiansheng Palace, and now their whereabouts are unknown, and Lord Qi is leading people to search the palace."
Kang Yufei stared at the prince who was slowly sitting up on the bed, and in the dim light, she couldn't see his face clearly.
"Yufei, are you coming to see me?" The prince seemed to be speaking to her, but the words were as soft as water, vague and slightly strange.
"Your Highness, are you awake? This is where the minions come in. The people outside were a little anxious and tapped lightly on the door.
"I'm fine, Yufei, you don't have to worry." Another quirky remark.
Kang Yufei couldn't figure out what the prince meant. If she wants to escape this catastrophe, she has to quickly find a way, and she uses light skills to go up to the beam. The lights in this room are dim, she is thin, and the beams can block her, so now I can only hope that no one will pay attention to look up.
Zhao Baojiang pushed open the door and walked in with a lamp. He saw that the prince had already gotten up, and hurriedly stepped forward to let the prince lie down, and then waved his hand outside, and then two little eunuchs came in.
Kang Yufei lay on the beam of the room, and he was smooth, which suppressed the panic just now. If you think about it, this situation is not difficult to break. This is the prince's room, she is the one who is about to become the crown princess, even if she comes uninvited, it can be said that it is too much to see the prince, as long as she can't find any weapons on her body, it is unfounded. She pulled out the dagger from her boots and put it on the corner of the beam, breathing a sigh of relief. However, she still felt a little weird, if the prince had already seen her, why hadn't he said anything until now?
"Your Highness, have you been woken up by someone outside? The minions let them go back. Zhao Baojiang gently covered the prince with a quilt, but found that the wound began to bleed again. He whispered to the little eunuch who had just come in, "Go and prepare to help His Highness change the dressing." ”
Although he said this lightly, he was still heard by Kang Yufei. Dressing? Kang Yufei turned over lightly and looked down, the prince seemed to be asleep, the quilt only covered half of his body, and on the left side of his chest on the upper body, a touch of blood came out of his white clothes.
This wound didn't look like it could be caused by a bump, it was obviously like a knife wound left by a pedestrian stab.
After a while, Kang Yufei felt that the surroundings had darkened again, and the eunuchs had gone farther and farther. She jumped down and walked to the bed, but now there was no light, and the night was dark, and she couldn't see the prince's face clearly. I only felt that he was breathing heavily, and it seemed to be in some pain. She wondered who had stabbed him in the chest.
But in such a situation, she didn't dare to get closer, nor did she dare to think about these things, and the most important thing for her was to get out of here quickly.
In the Lanyue Pavilion, Fang's mother waited left and right with a heart, and finally heard a trace of movement outside the door, before she could open the door, one person lifted the window and turned in, it was Kang Yufei.
"What about Yi Min?" As soon as Kang Yufei entered the house, he asked before he had time to change his clothes.
"I came back early, and said that I had hidden in the stable for a while, and I was dirty, and I went to wash it. Why did you come back so late? Having trouble? ”
Kang Yufei let out a long sigh, and seeing that Fang's mother looked flustered, she hurriedly changed her expression and comforted, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine." It's just that...... I see that the prince is injured......"
"Hurt? What injuries did you suffer? ”
"Stab wounds." Kang Yufei poked his chest and pointed out the location of the wound to Fang's mother, "It seems that the injury is quite serious." ”
"I haven't heard the news in the palace."
Kang Yufei rubbed the scar on the palm of his right hand repeatedly, and his mind was circling the twists and turns in it, who injured the prince? And why keep it a secret?
"Mother Fang, do you want to talk to your family about this?"
Fang's mother thought for a moment, "It's okay, tell Master Hou about this matter, if there is any situation in the future, our house will have a preparation." ”
The word situation, Fang's mother bit the word very hard, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, so Yu Fei couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, a little panicked.
The prince slept in a state of dazed sleep for several days, and when he woke up, his mind was in chaos. He touched his chest, and although the wound was not very painful, it was extremely uncomfortable, and he couldn't even adjust his breathing to a comfortable appearance.
"Imperial Doctor Wang said, although your wound is not deep, but the location of the injury is not good, and it is estimated that it will take some time to recover. Please also ask Your Highness not to be angry these days, and to recuperate. ”
The prince got out of bed and barely walked a few steps, "Zhao Baojiang, how many days have I been asleep?" ”
"Four days."
"Father, do you know?"
"Your Majesty, the slave said that it was a serious cold, so it was inconvenient to go to ask for peace these days."
The prince sat down and took a few good breaths, "Okay, okay." ”
"Servant Xie praised His Highness."
"And ...... What about Jade Fei? The prince suddenly thought of the last time he saw her. In the darkness, she looked at herself in surprise. But when you think about it, it's a little unreal, like a dream.
Zhao Baojiang had a special headache at this title, "I don't know which Yufei County Lord Your Highness is talking about?" ”
"Kang Yufei, stabbed my Kang Yufei."
Zhao Baojiang knelt down first, "Yes, I am now detained in the Shen Criminal Division, waiting for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be ......."
"Who, who told you to get her?" The prince was furious and slapped the edge of the bed, but there was a piercing pain from the wound.
"Your Highness, Your Highness must not be angry......"
The prince slowly smoothed his breathing and said softly, "Go to the Punishment Division." ”
Zhao Baojiang still wanted to obstruct it, but he got up slightly to block it, but was rudely pushed away by the prince. He knew he couldn't stop it. You can only cheer up the spirit to accompany you.
When he arrived at the Shen Criminal Division, hearing the voice of interrogating the prisoners inside, Zhao Baojiang suddenly remembered that although he had concealed the poisoning of the prince, he had also neglected to explain to the people here first.
"If you hand over the antidote, the world will be peaceful......"
Zhao Baojiang couldn't care about anything else, so he could only open his mouth and shout, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." ”
Although the prince was angry with Zhao Baojiang's assertions, he was not easy to make trouble.
The lights of the Shen Criminal Division were dim, Li Kai saluted, and led people to make the lights bright, the small house of the Shen Criminal Division was clearly illuminated, those bloodstained torture instruments, the dirt on the ground, and the person tied to the shelf, his clothes were stained with blood, and his hair was scattered, which was very terrible.
"Untie it, untie it quickly." The prince was furious, but because of his weakness, he couldn't make a roaring sound, and he was soft as if he didn't care.
So no one stepped forward.
Li Kai bowed his hand, "His Royal Highness the Prince, this person committed murder in public, even if he is a noble ......"
The prince suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Li Kai's collar, gritted his teeth, and said word by word: "Release me and release people." ”
Li Kai still insisted on not letting go.
The prince shook his head, but he didn't care much, and walked straight to the prisoner.
"Your Highness......"
Zhao Jie was extremely sober and excited from the moment she heard that His Royal Highness the Prince, she survived those tortures, and looked forward to the identity of the county lord of Yufei to work again, even if she couldn't use this identity to get out of this Shen Punishment Division, if she could attract the prince again, it would be worth everything, and it would be worth it.
She listened to the footsteps slowly approaching, and there was a rush of ecstasy in her heart, if she could get closer, closer, she would have complete certainty of killing him.
