At a time when there is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us, it seems that the only thing waiting for her is death.

However, how can Gu Ruoxi be a person waiting for death? People who have already died once will cherish their lives even more. This is evident from the dagger she carries with her. When Zhang Chunyi's hand attacked again, she did not hesitate to pull out the dagger hidden in her arms and slashed at Zhang Chunyi's hand!

Zhang Chunyi hurriedly retracted his hand! The next moment, he stepped forward and kicked Gu Ruoxi's wrist holding the dagger with an extremely flexible kick!

Gu Ruoxi couldn't dodge, and was kicked off the dagger in his hand by Zhang Chunyi at once. In fact, with her current physical condition, it is already good to be able to support it until now.

Zhang Chunyi smiled proudly, and once again reached out and pinched Gu Ruoxi's neck! She must be killed!

However, when his hand was only halfway out, Zhang Chunyi felt a pain in the life point on his waist, and something had pierced into it! Zhang Chunyi snorted, couldn't care about anything else, staggered back a few steps, and stayed away from Gu Ruoxi.

Glaring fiercely at the seemingly frail woman on the bed, he looked down. I saw that a silver needle was inserted in the acupoint on my waist, and it was this that caused half of my body to be numb.

I didn't expect this blue coat to have such a hand!

Zhang Chunyi was shocked and angry, shocked that the seemingly weak woman in front of him was not so easy to deal with, and angry that even he missed!

Before he could figure out what method to use to continue to deal with Gu Ruoxi, there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent, Zhang Chunyi's heart tightened, and half of his body became even more numb, he wanted to reach out and pull out the silver needle, but to no avail.

Gu Ruoxi sat on the bed and watched Zhang Chunyi's movements coldly, this person wanted to kill her. She won't be stupid enough to come forward and help him!

In just a short moment, cold sweat broke out on Zhang Chunyi's forehead, and he was anxious. But he could only use his other hand to slowly pull out the silver needle on his right waist.

As soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, Xuanyuan Jingxi opened the curtain and walked in from outside, holding a cowhide water bag filled with boiling water in his hand, with a shallow smile on his face, but the moment he saw Zhang Chunyi, all this disappeared in an instant.

Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at Zhang Chunyi who was standing on the edge of the bed, and his smile faded little by little: "Master Zhang." What are you doing here? ”

Zhang Chunyi hurriedly put away the silver needle in his palm, walked over and asked Xuanyuan Jingxi for a leaf: "See His Royal Highness King Jing!" I had something important to ask for in the next, so I came, but I didn't expect that after entering the door, I didn't see the prince, so I came over to ask the girl in purple. ”

"Really?" Xuanyuan Jingxi smiled coldly, turned to Gu Ruoxi and asked with his eyes.

Gu Ruoxi understood that Xuanyuan Jingxi couldn't break with the Zhang family at this moment, at least not now, so she smiled reluctantly and said, "Yes!" Zhang Gongzi was right. ”

Zhang Chunyi was taken aback when she heard this, she didn't

I thought that Lan Yi was willing to speak for him!

But this is a good thing, just in an instant, Zhang Chunyi reacted, he looked at Xuanyuan Jingxi, and said with a sincere face: "Lord Wang." I will pick up my sister to go down the mountain today, I don't know what the prince can explain? ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi knew that this was a polite remark when he heard it, if he didn't pick up Zhang Yan to go down the mountain, what would Zhang Chunyi do when he went up the mountain? Bored so come and hang out? Xuanyuan Jingxi didn't believe this at all. But he didn't bother to dismantle Zhang Chunyi, he only waved his hand and said: "This king has nothing to explain, it's just that Miss Zhang was frightened the day before yesterday and her health has been bad, and this king has not been able to take care of him because he is injured." After you go back, you will confess to Prime Minister Zhang Cheng on behalf of this king. ”

"The prince said this, it's really embarrassing for my father, little sister, she is not angry, so she is ashamed, where can I blame the prince? You're also injured, and my little sister hasn't been able to take care of you, which is true. When Zhang Chunyi heard this, he immediately became humble.

Xuanyuan Jingxi lazily continued to play official with her, and only said: "Since this is the case, then you should go back quickly!" It's not too early, and the way down the mountain is not easy. ”

"In the lower province, thank you for your care." Zhang Chunyi said, suddenly turned his head to look at Gu Ruoxi, and said, "Lord Wang." Looking at the girl in blue is kind-hearted and mild-tempered, she is really a rare woman, it is better to order her mother to enter the palace to meet the queen mother after going back, and let the prince accept the girl in blue? ”

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, his eyes suddenly flashed, and his face was a little more fierce: "No need, whether you accept the blue clothes into the room or not, it is the king's own business, and I dare not bother your Zhang family." If there's nothing to do, go back! ”

He actually directly issued an eviction order.

Zhang Chunyi originally thought that if he said this, Xuanyuan Jingxi would definitely be overjoyed. Anyway, the blue clothes always have to be taken into the house, if this matter is decided by the Zhang family, then the world will have a little more appreciation for his sister, and her reputation for being virtuous and generous will also know that it is over, and there is that Xuanyuan Jingxi actually rejected him!

Zhang Chunyi's complexion changed suddenly!

In fact, in this matter, he also has the ingredient to please Gu Ruoxi. After what happened just now, Zhang Chunyi has already understood, the girl in front of him, who seems to be not good-looking, is actually quite powerful, he can't assassinate, in fact, he already has the intention of wooing, but he didn't expect that Xuanyuan Jingxi wouldn't give her this opportunity at all.

"Lord Wang, do you want to stop thinking about it? Anyway, the girl in blue is already yours, and there is no girl who doesn't care about her reputation......" He still wants to die and struggle.

But Xuanyuan Jingxi didn't give her this opportunity at all, and waved his hand again: "Zhang Gongzi, please go back, I will make a decision on the affairs of this king." ”

On Xuanyuan Jingxi's cold face. Zhang Chunyi could only swallow the unspoken words. He bowed to Xuanyuan Jing and turned to retreat, but before leaving, he glanced at Gu Ruoxi on the bed with a vague look.

There was a warning in his gaze.

When Gu Ruoxi saw it, her lips were raised, revealing a smile that seemed to be nothing, full of sarcasm.

The person who assassinated her didn't expect it to be Zhang Yan's brother. Such a son of a famous family would do something to a maid with such a shallow status, Gu Ruoxi was a little puzzled.

However, she understood that this Zhang Chunyi, like Gu Xiaoye, was a person who treated her sister as an eyeball.

And she is just a person who is ignored and calculated.

"What are you thinking? So focused. Xuanyuan Jingxi's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and as soon as Gu Ruoxi turned his head, he saw Xuanyuan Jingxi sitting down on the edge of the bed. Shove a cowhide water bag into your hand: "Hurry up and put it on!" You can suffer a little less, too. ”

Gu Ruoxi listened, nodded immediately, took the water bag and put it on his lower abdomen to warm up. This person is always very careful in small things, and she hasn't come out of Zhang Chunyi's incident just now, but Xuanyuan Jingxi has already begun to care about her. Gu Ruoxi's heart suddenly warmed. At the same time, because the hot water bottle is warm, her lower abdomen is less painful.

Xuanyuan Jingxi saw that she was fine, so she asked, "Zhang Chunyi came over just now, what did he tell you?" ”

Gu Ruoxi glanced up at Xuanyuan Jingxi.

"Whatever he says, you don't have to take it seriously. The Zhang family is a bunch of self-righteous guys, you don't have to pay attention to it. Xuanyuan Jingxi thought for a while and said.

Gu Ruoxi glanced at him and said, "Why do you just think about what he will say, why don't you think about what he will do?" ”

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, his face suddenly changed: "He wants to kill you?" ”

I guessed it accurately.

Gu Ruoxi listened, smiled lightly, and said, "Isn't it?" If it weren't for the early return of the prince, I would have already made a sword revenant at this moment. ”

"How dare he!" Xuanyuan Jingxi's face turned iron-blue, and the whole person was angry, and he couldn't wait to rush over immediately and break Zhang Chunyi's body into pieces. Gu Ruoxi saw him so excited, and his heart was relieved and moved, and he hurriedly persuaded: "Lord Wang, you don't have to be too angry, no matter what, he didn't take any advantage, Lord Wang, you don't have to face him head-on." ”

"You're right, how can this kind of person be confronted by the king? Of course, revenge is taken behind the scenes! Xuanyuan Jingxi was originally angry, but after listening to Gu Ruoxi's words, his anger slowly dissipated, and only the cold light in his eyes reminded him that he would definitely not just forget it.

"They're going down the mountain soon, so it's better not to make any extraneous branches." Gu Ruoxi said, glanced at Xuanyuan Jingxi and said, "Besides, the injuries on your body are not healed!" ”

"You care about me?" One day today, Xuanyuan Jingxi listened to such a word of concern, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Gu Ruoxi didn't refute, she nodded and said, "Yes, I care about the prince very much." ”

high

When Yuan Jingxi heard this, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he couldn't help but smile happily, and he stepped forward to kiss Gu Ruoxi.

Gu Ruoxi had long expected this, so he hurriedly covered his face with the quilt and shouted, "Lord Wang, I want to sleep!" Please don't disturb me! ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi listened to her sullen voice, and suddenly couldn't help but chuckle, took off his shoes, lifted a gap in the quilt, and said in a low voice: "This king is also sleepy." So saying, he lay down in it.

He stood outside for a long time, his body was contaminated with cold air, and as soon as he leaned on Gu Ruoxi's body, she gasped for air, and hurriedly crawled inside: "Lord Wang, can you not do this?" If you sleep, I won't sleep! So saying, he sat up.

Xuanyuan Jingxi could not allow her to escape, and besides, Gu Ruoxi's body was weak now, so he would not ask her to go out, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he pulled Gu Ruoxi back into his arms, and said in a low voice: "Sleep." ”

His arms were not so cold, Gu Ruoxi saw that the two iron arms that imprisoned her did not move at all, knowing that she had no possibility of struggling, she closed her eyes helplessly and slept at the moment, with what happened last night, she didn't dare to continue struggling. Xuanyuan Jingxi is not Zhang Chunyi, and it is impossible for her to take out a silver needle to deal with him.

After a while, Gu Ruoxi felt that her body was warm, and it turned out that there was a person who was still very comfortable sleeping with her, she couldn't sleep in a light sleep, but at this moment she was asleep deeply.

Xuanyuan Jingxi didn't fall asleep, he looked down at Gu Ruoxi, who was curled up in his arms, his eyes were very bright. He rejoiced in the talent.

Purple Yi came in from outside, and what he saw was such a scene. But before Xuanyuan Jingxi could speak, she quietly retreated, ate the meal prepared in the kitchen with Mo Yun, and then made a new one for Gu Ruoxi and Xuanyuan Jingxi.

Zhang Yan had been noisy and noisy for two or three hours before she could be regarded as packing up her ropes and setting off for the mountain. There was no one on Xuanyuan Jingxi's side to send it away.

Zhang Yan was not angry, but Zhang Chunyi had just failed to assassinate Gu Ruoxi, so he didn't dare to step forward to theorize, so he had to persuade her angrily, and the group hurried down the mountain.

On this humble mountain, Zhang Yan was really impatient. In the past, for the sake of Xuanyuan Jingxi, she was willing to stay here for a while, but what she didn't expect was that Xuanyuan Jingxi didn't pay attention to her at all, and in this case, she couldn't last long at all. Not long after Zhang Yan and the others went down the mountain, the palace sent people up the mountain to visit Xuanyuan Jingxi. There are people who have the queen mother, and there are people who are emperors.

I also know that the Queen Mother dotes on her little son so much, and everyone else has returned, but he has stayed on this mountain for several days. How could she not be worried? was able to carry it until this time before sending someone up the mountain, which shows that the Queen Mother has already endured her temperament.

As for the emperor's people, they were sent for the sake of the queen mother's face, otherwise they wouldn't be able to say anything.

When these people came, Gu Ruoxi had already woken up

, Because Zhang Yan left, she proposed to move back to live, but Xuanyuan Jingxi refused, and when the two of them were pulling around, the father-in-law in the Queen Mother's palace and Xuanyuan Chen, the guard commander around the emperor, begged to see him at the door.

Gu Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, and was about to get up and get out of bed immediately, but Xuanyuan Jingxi grabbed her: "You lie down well, this king goes out to see them." ”

As soon as Gu Ruoxi raised his head, he saw Xuanyuan Jingxi's sparkling eyes.

She nodded subconsciously.

Xuanyuan Jingxi slowly let go of her. stood up and helped her lie down on the bed, and carefully and gently covered her with the quilt, and then got up and walked out.

Outside the tent, the father-in-law and the commander of the imperial guards, Xuanyuan Chen, knelt down and asked Ye Dao: "Xiaguan (minion) see His Royal Highness King Jing!" ”

"Get up!" Xuanyuan Jingxi glanced at them and asked condescendingly, "Commander Xuanyuan, but the imperial brother sent you up the mountain?" ”

Xuanyuan Chen nodded suddenly: "Yes, His Royal Highness King Jing, I heard that you are sick, and the emperor is worried." I didn't think about tea and dinner, and immediately sent a subordinate to meet the prince, I don't know how your injuries are recovering? ”

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he suddenly showed a sarcastic smile: "What? Did the royal brother only know that the king was injured today? Two days ago, when the king of Japan was sick in bed, the third prince came to visit him several times, and he went down the mountain early, didn't he tell the royal brother and the queen mother? ”

"This ...... The lower officials don't know. As soon as Xuanyuan Chen heard Xuanyuan Jingxi's words, a cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.

Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at his appearance, and didn't want to embarrass him anymore, so he suddenly turned around and asked openly with a kind attitude: "Father-in-law, how are my queen mothers these days?" ”

When his father-in-law saw him attacking Xuanyuan Chen, he was ready to be stabbed, but he didn't expect that when Xuanyuan Jingxi faced him. The attitude turned out to be a 180-degree change, which made him flattered for a moment, and he nodded again and again: "Back to His Royal Highness King Jing, the Queen Mother is all right, it's just that I am very worried about the prince, if you return to Beijing early, the Queen Mother and her old man will be early in her heart." ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, but he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Don't hide it from your father-in-law." In this mountain, the air is fresh, the green fields are verdant, the mood of this king is very comfortable, Imperial Doctor Xu originally said that this king's injury needs to be recuperated for at least half a month to be healed, but living here, this king only needs seven days to completely heal. "He's happy.

"Is it really that amazing?" The father-in-law and the guard commander Xuanyuan Chen couldn't help but ask.

Xuanyuan Jingxi nodded and said: "Yes, in two days, this king's injury will be fully recovered, bother my father-in-law, explain to the queen mother when you go down the mountain, her old man in the province blames the king, and Xuanyuan leads you too." I hope you will speak a lot for me in front of the royal brother, and the king is very grateful. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Xuanyuan Chen meaningfully.

Xuanyuan Chen immediately felt it

A chill came up from his spine, and he nodded and said, "This is natural!" This is natural! Of course, the prince waited for his body to recover before going down the mountain, and the lower officials must explain it clearly to the emperor. ”

"Commander Xuanyuan, this king doesn't dislike Kyoto, it's just that he stays in that palatial place every day, and this king occasionally wants to live in this deep mountain and wild forest, you should be careful when you explain, if you go back and complain about this king, this king will find you to settle accounts."

"The lower officials don't dare!" Commander Xuanyuan trembled and hurriedly agreed.

Xuanyuan Jingxi suddenly showed a satisfied smile, he waved his hand, and said, "Okay, leave the supplements you brought, you all go back!" ”

"Lord Wang! The Queen Mother has sent a servant to serve you! The father-in-law first knelt down and explained, "You must not drive the old slave away!" ”

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Chen also knelt on the ground in the same way, and said: "Lord Wang, the servants are also sent by the emperor to protect you, His Royal Highness has returned to Beijing with the guards, there are many wild things in this deep mountain and forest, and no one is waiting, I am afraid that the prince will suffer from accidents here!" "

"Huh? Do you curse this king for misfortune? Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at Xuanyuan Chen and said with a smile.

Xuanyuan Chen was taken aback, and hurriedly explained: "Go back to the prince's words!" That's not what Xia Guan meant! ”

"And what do you mean?" Xuanyuan Jingxi said slowly, he didn't say that he called the two people in front of him into the tent, he called the guards to move a chair and sit down, but he ignored the two people in front of him.

Originally, he felt a little sorry for Xuanyuan Gonggong, but Xuanyuan Jingxi understood very well in his heart, in front of Xuanyuan Chen, he must not show this idea, no matter what, now the emperor loves him very much on the surface, and he can't favor one over the other.
