The maidservant next to her was still whispering, "The county lord is angry." The old princess explained...... "Before the words were finished, Duan Shengyi slapped him first, "You, why do you turn your elbow outside, do you fall in love with that little white face?" Actually help outsiders talk! ”

"No, it's not...... the maid's voice became quieter and quieter, for fear that she would anger her master again.

Recently, the county lord's temper has been getting bigger and bigger, and he is angry at the slightest thing. In the eyes of the subordinates, they are even more cautious in their words and deeds, for fear that if one accidentally touches the moldy head, it is just commonplace to be punished and beaten. Originally, because the Halloween Day was approaching, and she had not picked out a suitable gift for a long time, when she was shopping around in the past few days, the store flattered her and mentioned to her that not long ago, Prince An of the Mansion had also purchased something on a large scale.

It was the news that annoyed her.

Since Duan Heng bought so many things outside, she should also see one or two, but not only has she never seen it this time, Duan Heng returns home empty-handed every day. It was this that made her feel uncomfortable. has always loved her brother, and she is silently treating someone else behind her back, and she never even knows about things like giving gifts, her heart is empty, how can her temper be good.

Although Xiao He didn't know this, she knew that Duan Shengyi was rude, and since she couldn't hide from it, she simply dealt with it generously. It's not that she's afraid of this county lord, it's just that because Duan Heng is in the middle, she can't embarrass her too much in face.

But now Duan Shengyi took people out of anger without saying a word, this kind of behavior really made Xiao He a little unbearable.

"The county lord is so majestic, no wonder the county lord's reputation is resounding throughout the imperial capital! No, in my humble opinion, it should have resounded throughout the entire Dayin and even the surrounding countries. Xiao He smiled lightly and said loudly.

Duan Sheng recalled the sound, turned his head and saw that the person in front of him turned out to be the most annoying person, and his eyes couldn't help but stand up, "It's really a narrow road, Xiao He, you don't have a weird yin and yang here!" As if she remembered something, her face suddenly eased, and she smiled at Xiao He, "Lord Xiao, when my brother was looking for you for a long time, did you deliberately avoid it, or did you really delay something?" ”

Xiao He couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that this Shengyi changed his face faster than turning a book, but when he heard her say that Duan Heng was looking for him, he couldn't help but remember that he had suddenly disappeared for a short time. I'm afraid that Duan Heng really has something urgent, and he doesn't spend time here with Duan Shengyi, he talks about it, and only owes a little to her, "Thank you for telling the county lord!" Then he turned and walked out of the store.

Even the people around Duan Shengyi wondered how the county lord had changed his temperament today, and he was so kind to Xiao He, who she had always looked down on the most.

Since the last time he overheard the conversation between Xiao He and Liu Yingluo in King An's mansion, Duan Shengyi misunderstood the whole thing as Xiao He's personal feelings for Liu Yingge, and wanted to go to the palace to complain, but the Queen Mother didn't think so. Later, she figured out that if Xiao He had a favorite woman in his heart, he would naturally not pester his Chu Ran brother, and he would not be afraid of any indecent rumors with his own brother.

Now, she took the initiative to tell her, but instead of letting Duan Heng go outside to curry favor with an object she didn't know, it was better to let Xiao He come to his side, which was the lesser of two evils for Duan Shengyi.

Xiao He returned to the Xiao Mansion first, but the people in the mansion were not very anxious about her disappearance for a day and a night, and they all seemed to be very calm, which made her a little disappointed.

After briefly telling Hongzhu about her experience, Hongzhu heard that she had been poisoned by the colorful cloud spider, and she was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time, so she hurriedly grabbed her wrist to check her pulse, and probed the pulse before slowly saying: "Sure enough, the poison has been solved, and that person's method of detoxification is also unusual." But now Childe's internal breath seems to be more vigorous. ”

Xiao Hegan laughed twice, she was a blessing in disguise.

"It's just that it's still a bit unfavorable when walking with the right foot. Do you have a way? ”

Hongzhu bent down and squatted down to check it for her, "The slave maid prepares some ointment, apply a compress for the son, drive away the dampness and cold, and also activate the meridians, help the wound recover faster, and the legs will naturally be much more comfortable." ”

Xiao He's head was right, and Hongzhu immediately got up and went out to prepare. Hongzhu only went out on the front foot, and Xiao Shi came in on the back foot, his face was not very good, and he said as soon as he opened his mouth: "I told you to be careful of Murong, why don't you care." ”

Xiao He was slightly stunned, only to know that he had already heard his conversation with Hongzhu when he was outside, so he frowned and said, "Your habit is very bad." She teased him implicitly at eavesdropping on the wall, but he crouched down disapprovingly to examine the arrow wound on her foot, his brow furrowed.

was only checked by Hongzhu, he came to pull his trousers again, Xiao He was a little impatient, opened his hand, covered his legs, and didn't let him see.

Xiao He was sitting on a chair and bending over to hold his legs, while he was half-squatting beside her, insisting on checking her injuries. The two were deadlocked, but in an intimate posture.

"Let me see." Xiao Shi softened his tone and said softly.

This soft breath made Xiao He a little unaccustomed, she had always eaten soft rather than hard, and the strength in her hands was loosened. The corners of Xiao Shi's lips moved slightly, very satisfied, and gently rolled up her trousers, but was startled by the terrifying arrow wound. Although there was also medicine to stop the bleeding, the wound was a finger long, and the skin and flesh were rolled, which made him feel a little distressed.

"You hurt ......" At that moment, he almost had the urge to chop Murong into several pieces.

"It's okay," Xiao He pretended to be relaxed, "Then Murong doesn't know how much internal strength has been given to me, now I am full of true qi and very comfortable, this little skin injury is nothing." ”

Xiao Shi raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes flickered, and he stopped speaking for a long time. It was this injury on her that made him reflect, and if he wanted to protect her, he needed to be stronger.

His eyes were like water, staring at Xiao He a little embarrassed, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to cover his face, and said duplicitously: "It's scary to keep staring at people like this." Her voice was soft, but Xiao Shi smiled.

At this time, Hongzhu came in, and Xiao Shi withdrew, not hindering them on the side.

When this Hongzhu had just given Xiao He good medicine and re-bandaged it, he heard a small servant in the front yard report that Prince An had visited.

As soon as she returned to the house, she asked someone to deliver the news to King An's mansion, and this balance came quickly. When he heard his footsteps approaching, Xiao He quickly winked at Hongzhu, who understood and put away the rest of the medicine and tools.

Xiao He straightened his clothes and sat on a chair, waiting for him to come in.

"I heard you're looking for me in a hurry?"

Duan Heng seemed to be galloping all the way on horseback, and a strand of hair on the sideburns was messed up, "Where have you been?" I went back and forth to your house to look for you seven or eight times, but I didn't see you. ”

"Went to visit a friend. What's wrong? What's the matter? Xiao He responded slowly. The people on the side brought tea up.

Originally, after Duan Heng learned from Mu Churan yesterday that he intended to give him a fief, he was full of desire to know Qing, but he happened to look for Xiao He without a trace, and when he saw her after a day and a night, he didn't know where to start for a while.

So he sat beside her and drank tea quietly, and after drinking half a bowl, he couldn't speak.

When Xiao He saw his suddenly calm appearance, he guessed that there seemed to be something unspeakable, and smiled heartily, "Brother Duan, in front of me, what can't be said?" Hearing Xiao He say this, Duan Heng breathed a sigh of relief, put down the teacup, and turned his head to look at her, "If there is a place to go, I want you to go with me, are you willing?" ”

Xiao He saw that he deliberately straightened his face, and his eyebrows couldn't help jumping, but he deliberately said in a relaxed tone: "What's the matter with the sword mountain and the sea of fire." ”

Duan Heng was slightly happy on her face, she didn't refuse, and let him feel a little relieved, "It must not be such a difficult place, the emperor plans to give me a fief, and he will issue a decree ordering me to leave in the next month, if you are willing to go with me, I will ask the emperor at that time and let him let you go with me......" Duan Heng was still planning that after he arrived in his fief one day, he would be the king, so she could do whatever she wanted, but on the other hand, she saw Xiao He's expression change slightly.

A little surprised, a little hesitant, a little resistant, she pursed her lips and frowned.

Duan Heng pulled the corners of his mouth, smiled reluctantly, and asked her, "You don't want to go?" Although he has not yet said where to give it to me, I guess that even if it is not a fertile land, it will not be barren and barren. At that time, I was the king of the party, and I could do whatever I wanted, as long as I said a word...... her face became more and more stiff, and he spoke more and more slowly, until finally his voice could only be heard by himself.

"I'm sorry, I can't leave the imperial capital yet......" Xiao He didn't know how to explain. What could she say? She couldn't say anything, only looked back at him with a bit of guilt.

"Okay," Duan Heng interpreted what she meant, but she didn't leave for the time being, and she didn't say that she wouldn't leave, which could be regarded as a kind of comfort, "Then I'll just wait for you to come." As if she was afraid of remorse, she added: "Do you know that I didn't even tell my mother about this matter, so I told you first." Our relationship is iron enough, if you don't come, you won't be enough brothers! ”

Xiao He raised the corners of his lips slightly, "Okay, if I can leave, I will definitely go to you!" ”

Duan Heng got her promise, and only then did he smile sincerely.

After sending Duan Heng away, Xiao He turned back to the courtyard, and always felt that there was a gaze coming from above, and she raised her head and saw Xiao Shi sitting on the roof of the main hall. She lifted her coat and flew onto the roof, walked over lightly, and shook her head, "You're not in a good habit either." ”

When Xiao Shi saw her coming, he got up and reached out to help her.

She didn't refuse, pressed it on his palm, and sat down beside him.

At this time, it was almost dusk, but the afterglow of the sky was hidden in the continuous clouds, dyed in a vermilion color, reflecting half of the sky red. The two of them sat side by side on the ridge of the roof, looking in the same direction, and for a long time no one spoke to break the silence.

The smoke from the kitchen in the backyard was together, and after a while, the aroma of steamed meat wafted over, and Xiao He felt a little hungry.
