Chapter 226: Return
For Bai Jiujiu, the wounds on her body were fine. What really affected her was the internal injuries that were beaten by that mysterious person, but these couldn't be said to Xu Huaiming.
Xu Huaiqing knew very well in his heart that Bai Jiujiu didn't want him to come forward to investigate the beggar's matter. After all, now that the prince is in power, he should not be on the cusp now. If he is used by someone with a heart, it is very likely that everything he has obtained now will be ruined.
Sighing helplessly, Xu Huaiqing stretched out his hand and gently stroked Bai Jiujiu's soft hair, "Jiujiu, I'm sorry." If I could have paid more attention to you when I was parading the streets, this would not have happened and you would have suffered so many grievances. ”
"Huaiqing, I don't blame you for this matter. It was because I was too careless that I was able to get my hands on that group of beggars. Bai Jiujiu didn't want Xu Huaiqing to bear so much pressure, and felt that everything was his own reason.
What happened today made Bai Jiujiu and Xu Huaiqing's hearts feel a little heavy. In this big and unpredictable capital, the only thing they can rely on is each other.
"Huaiqing, you should rest early." Bai Jiujiu knew that Xu Huaiqing had also been tired for a day, so he patted the back of his hand soothingly, "You have just been appointed by the emperor as the champion, and there will definitely be many people coming to congratulate you tomorrow, but you have to be full of spirits." ”
Xu Huaiqing hugged Bai Jiujiu tighter, his chin rested on her hair, and his tone was full of solemnity, "Compared to you, what are those people?" Jiujiu, you go to sleep first, I will always be by your side, and I will never let you be wronged again. ”
Xu Huaiqing's words made Bai Jiujiu's heart surge with a warm current. Although Xu Huaiqing can't help in her own affairs, just his words are enough for her, as long as Xu Huaiqing is behind her, she can regain her confidence and face the powerful mysterious person.
Nodding slightly, Bai Jiujiu obediently closed his eyes. With the most important person in mind, she is not afraid of any danger.
All night, Bai Jiujiu had been lying in Xu Huaiqing's arms, and fell asleep unconsciously. Maybe it's because Xu Huaiqing is by her side, she rested very well this night.
Early the next morning, Bai Jiujiu opened her eyes and found that Xu Huaiqing still maintained the position she had before she fell asleep, and quickly sat up. Seeing his somewhat tired face, it was obvious that he hadn't closed his eyes all night.
"Huaiqing, you can also go and take a rest." Seeing Xu Huaiqing's blue-black eyes, Bai Jiujiu couldn't help but feel a little distressed, "You may still have something to do today, how can you do it if you don't cultivate your spirit?" ”
"Don't worry, didn't I often read all night before, and the next day I was just as energetic, but I didn't sleep all night, and it won't have much impact." He moved his stiff arm and waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Nope." Bai Jiujiu frowned slightly, shook his head stubbornly, and said, "It's not as good as it used to be." At that time, it was to gain fame and fame, and it was a last resort. Now that you are the champion appointed by the emperor, how can you do it if you don't have a good rest? ”
After speaking, Bai Jiujiu ignored Xu Huaiqing's objection and forcibly pushed him down on the bed, "You have a good rest first, if someone comes, I will help you receive him first." ”
Seeing Bai Jiujiu's insistence, Xu Huaiqing could only nod helplessly, "Then please." You also have to pay attention to your body, see that your face is so bad, if you are free, go to the hospital to have a look, don't just apply some wound medicine to make do. ”
Bai Jiujiu nodded vaguely in agreement, and did not take this to heart, her body was best known to herself, and it was definitely not something that could be improved by going to the hospital. The external injuries on her body are not important to her, when she was cultivating in the sect before, she would inevitably be injured, compared to the wounds at that time, this small injury is really a big deal.
What really kills is the internal injury, and in this world without spiritual power, there is no means of healing this internal injury. Before, because the time and place were favorable, it was enough to refine the Hui Ling Pill, but now it is no longer possible to gather those conditions to refine the second one.
After Xu Huaiqing rested, Bai Jiujiu wanted to try to see if the spiritual power in his body was still unusable. She took a deep breath and slowly ran the aura in her body, wanting to use the aura to repair the dark wounds in her body.
However, when she was about to use her spiritual power, the same situation appeared as yesterday. As long as the spiritual power rotates slightly, a sharp pain will arise from the body.
Seeing this situation, Bai Jiujiu had to dispel the idea of using spiritual power. It seems that the internal injuries she suffered can only be slowly adjusted.
Bai Jiujiu never went out, she was very worried that once she went out, she would meet the mysterious person who attacked her yesterday. She is very clear about her own strength and is far from being an opponent of the other side. If it was only herself, she could still find a way to escape. But if Xu Huaiqing is involved, she doesn't have the ability to protect him.
During Xu Huaiqing's rest, many people from the officialdom came here and wanted to see him. After all, Xu Huaiqing is the champion appointed by the emperor, and he is deeply loved by the emperor, and it is a very normal thing for many people to want to win him over.
Bai Jiujiu didn't let anyone else disturb Xu Huaiqing's rest, she blocked all the people who came and told them to come back later.
Although those people were unhappy, they didn't dare to really go against Bai Jiujiu's wishes. If you offend Xu Huaiqing because of this, it will be more than worth the loss.
So no matter what they thought psychologically, they all squeezed out a smile, and even the sound should be.
Bai Jiujiu didn't really drive them out, after all, Xu Huaiqing will be an official in the future, maybe he will deal with these people, and it is not good to offend them to death. So if the other party really has something important, Bai Jiujiu will ask them to leave a letter and show it to him after Xu Huai is sober.
Seeing that Bai Jiujiu handled it so thoughtfully, those people couldn't insist that they must see Xu Huaiqing anymore. Just said to visit again next time.
Finally sent everyone away, Bai Jiujiu rubbed his already stiff face, turned around and pushed the door open.
On the other hand, Zhao Feihuai has been sullen since she was rejected by Xu Huaiqing. She finally met a man she liked, but the other party had no feelings for her, which made her feel very bad.
The maid beside her saw Zhao Feihuai's depressed and unhappy appearance all day long, and couldn't help but persuade, "Miss, isn't it just Xu Huaiqing, you can't be so disappointed." ”
