Chapter 17: Snuggle
The person who came was Ruan Lang.
At this moment, Ruan Lang's mood is very complicated.
He never imagined that his sister would run away directly in front of him.
The carriage was full of people, and it disappeared after a while.
Convinced.
Ruan Yu was also very nervous about the horseman's operation, and at first he thought he had encountered a robber, but after seeing that it was Ruan Lang, he persuaded the horseman to turn around and go back.
"Go back? No, no, no. Hou Ye ordered, the princess must be brought back to the house safely, and no one who stands in the way can see her. ”
Ruan Yu couldn't cry or laugh: "But that's my brother." ”
"Master Hou said, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't do it." The groom replied with a heartfelt answer.
Ruan Yu: "......"
Ruan Lang specially brought the forbidden army with him on this trip, according to Xiao Wanqing's meaning, even if Ruan Yu didn't want to come back, she had to be arrested, and there was no room for negotiation. But now that everyone has run away, it's not interesting to confront these Hou Mansion guards and soldiers.
So I went home.
*
The carriage galloped all the way and entered the Xilianghou Mansion on a rampage. Ruan Yu got off the carriage in a daze, and the whole person was not good.
It's like a murderer fleeing for his life.
Ruan Yu stepped on the ground, and felt unreal, so she glanced at the groom helplessly.
The groom smiled innocently.
Since he had fled back from the desert, Ruan Yu didn't have the leisure to find Ruan Lang. Anyway, Ruan Lang's search for her is nothing more than one thing.
I'm going to take her back.
She won't go back for the time being, but she always feels that it's better to make it clear to her family - why she won't go back, when she will go back, so that they can have a count. They just escaped back, and it was hard to make sure they didn't think much about it.
The royal mind is always twisted and turned, and a simple thing can always create a complex motivation background for you. You explained, but they still didn't believe it, and they thought you wanted to cover it up.
It was just noon, and Lu Ye was eating. In addition to him, there were two maids in the house, one of whom was holding a red lacquer plate, and there was porridge and vegetables on the plate. Lu Ye's right hand fell more seriously, and the injury to his left hand was a little lighter, so he used his left hand to hold a spoon to eat, one bite at a time.
Ruan Yu looked at it with great difficulty.
"How do you let Master Hou eat by himself?" Ruan Yu walked in and asked.
A maid explained: "Master Hou has to eat it himself, and we can't help it." ”
Ruan Yu walked to Lu Ye's bed, "Really?" ”
Lu Ye smiled, "You're back." ”
"Hmm." Ruan Yu said: "Isn't it good to let the maid feed you?" It's so tiring. ”
Lu Ye glanced at her, his gaze turned back, and his voice was a little faint:
"Forget it, I'm not used to it." He scooped a mouthful of porridge and ate, "Have you eaten it?" ”
"Nope." Ruan Yu paused, looked at him and said, "My brother has come to me." ”
Lu Ye's fingers clenched the spoon, and he scooped up the soup casually, "And then?" ”
"Then," Ruan Yu wanted to laugh when she said it, "I took a long detour and came back, and I didn't even see my brother in person." ”
Lu Ye didn't speak.
"Did you really tell the groom to bring me back anyway?" Ruan Yu took the tea handed by Mingzhu, took a sip, and looked at him a little funny, "Can I still run?" I've promised to wait until you're healed......"
Lu Ye suddenly interrupted her: "How about waiting for my injuries to heal?" ”
Ruan Yu was stunned for a moment and didn't continue.
When you're healed, you won't need to see each other again.
Ruan Yu knew that he didn't want to hear this, he was now an injured person, and he must accommodate him a little, so he smiled and perfunctory: "It's nothing, I should go back when you are injured." ”
Lu Ye narrowed his eyes.
"I'm going to eat, you eat slowly." Ruan Yu stood up.
"Bring the food." Lu Ye glanced at Mingzhu.
Mingzhu immediately understood, and went to the kitchen to get food with a smile.
The dishes at noon were much more exquisite than before, with chicken and fresh bamboo shoot soup, steamed fish and a few seasonal vegetables, which tasted good, Ruan Yu asked in surprise: "You really changed your cook?" ”
Lu Ye nodded, "What do you think of the change of leader?" ”
"It's good." Ruan Yu sincerely affirmed.
After eating, the imperial doctor came over and helped Lu Ye treat his wounds. Ruan Yu waited outside for a while, and suddenly the door opened, and the maid invited her in.
"Let the Imperial Doctor diagnose your pulse." Lu Ye smiled, "You didn't drink medicine yesterday." Let the imperial doctor prescribe a prescription, and it is the same to catch the medicine and fry it here. ”
Ruan Yu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously stepped back: "No." ”
Lu Ye looked at her.
Ruan Yu smiled reluctantly and said, "My illness is not serious, and it will be okay to take less medicine for a few days." Doctor, please go back. ”
"Forehead...... "The imperial doctor looked at Lu Ye in embarrassment, and then looked at Ruan Yu.
Lu Ye sighed, the words were obviously said to the imperial doctor, but his eyes were staring at Ruan Yu,
"Imperial Doctor Gong, that's as the princess said."
Ruan Yu lowered her eyes weakly.
*
In the afternoon, Lu Ye washed his hair and put it on his shoulders wet, and he couldn't get into bed for a while. Ruan Yu accompanied him outside for a walk.
Lu Ye's leg injury was not serious, but he hit his knee when he fell off the horse, so it didn't matter much. The main thing is that he has a waist injury and needs to be helped.
Ruan Yu called a small servant to come over, but people didn't want it. I clutched my waist and walked down the steps slowly.
Ruan Yu couldn't look past it.
"Be careful." Ruan Yu grabbed his arm with both hands and reminded.
The little girl's fingers were a little cold, and she was clinging to his arm through a layer of clothing, as if she were about to be touched.
Lu Ye turned his head to look at her.
Ruan Yu looked down at the steps, her hair was coiled into a small clutch on the back of her head, and the smooth back of her neck was exposed, which was a little dazzling white.
Thin earlobes, slender neckline.
Lu Ye looked away, raised his head, hooked his fingers around the collar, and pulled down.
"Why don't you leave?" Ruan Yu looked up and asked.
Lu Ye pointed to the wound on his waist with the other hand, "It hurts." ”
"Ah......" Ruan Yu looked back at the room in embarrassment, "Your injury is not healed yet, why don't you go back." ”
"I'm in that room, and I'm suffocating to death." Lu Ye smiled.
"So, you lean on me." Ruan Yu patted himself on the shoulder and said, "If you don't exert yourself strength, it shouldn't hurt." ”
"Really?" Lu Ye laughed.
Ruan Yu nodded, with a serious expression, "You try." ”
Lu Ye slowly tilted to the left, Ruan Yu was shorter than him after all, and it was unlikely that Lu Ye would put his head on her shoulder. So he stretched out his left hand, directly around Ruan Yu's neck, leaning on her slightly, not daring to exert too much force.
The little girl was too delicate to be crushed by her.
At this point, it is already very difficult for Ruan Yu.
But she didn't say anything, helped Lu Ye down the steps, and asked him, "Does it still hurt?" ”
"It doesn't hurt anymore." As he spoke, his breath seemed to entangle with him.
Ruan Yu was distracted for a moment.
The tip of the ear is irrepressibly red, and little by little it spreads to the whole ear. Lu Ye stared at it for a while and smiled.
"Don't laugh." Ruan Yu glared at him.
"Okay, I'm not smiling." Lu Ye nodded.
Ruan Yu twisted her head uncomfortably, staring at her toes and walking down. Lu Ye brushed his wet hair and asked, "Why don't you let the Imperial Doctor show you?" ”
"There's no need." Ruan Yu said.
Looking at the way she looks, I'm not going to say more. The more she didn't want to say it, the more Lu Ye wanted to know, but she was afraid that staring at it would cause her disgust.
Lu Ye wrapped around Ruan Yu like a rattan, Ruan Yu took one step and he moved one step, and it didn't take long for Ruan Yu to be tired and gasp. Ruan Yu saw a pavilion in front of him, so he proposed, "Go sit down?" ”
"Okay."
The pavilion is surrounded by water on all sides and is extended by a straight wooden bridge. The two of them finally walked to the center of the pavilion, and Lu Ye sat down with his waist covered.
Ruan Yu also sat down, took out the jade fan from his sleeve, and fanned himself.
Lu Ye stretched out a hand and snatched her fan away, "I'll take a look." ”
He looked at the fan for a while, smiled, put his arm on the table, and fanned Ruan Yu, "Hard work." ”
"Ah......" Ruan Yu was a little confused, and turned her head uncomfortably to look at the calm lake.
She thought a little distressed: I must not be able to support him anymore later, find a maid or a little maid, if he refuses...... Let him be.
"Are you really going to part ways with me when I'm well?" Lu Ye asked coldly.
Ruan Yu looked back at him.
The corners of Lu Ye's lips were slightly hooked, his expression was quite pleasant, his eyes were deep, slightly squinted, and there was a bit of a lazy and wanton taste.
Ruan Yu let out a "hmm" and lowered her eyelashes.
It's time to make it clear.
"What if I don't agree?" Lu Ye slowly shook the folding fan in her hand, and the wind picked up the broken hair in her ears.
Ruan Yu lowered his eyes and smiled: "I know, Xiliang Hou Tian is not afraid of the earth, so naturally he will not take Xiao Yuanji in his eyes." But behind Xiao Yuanji is the Xiao family, that is, my mother, and my father, since you are the people of Dazhao, you must not be an enemy of them. ”
"What about yourself?" Lu Ye closed the folding fan and leaned forward slightly, "Are you making enemies of them?" ”
Ruan Yu's heart trembled when he asked this.
She had never wanted to go against anyone, and as a princess, she naturally couldn't do such a thing. But in fact, she has done countless things against her father's wishes, and she is indeed disobeying them.
Ruan Yu didn't know what to say, so she fell silent.
"If you don't follow the emperor's opinion, you are enemies of them, so aren't all those officials in the court enemies?" Lu Ye sat up straight and smiled slightly, "Fool." ”
His voice was slow, with a smile at the end. Ruan Yu looked at him in amazement.
Fool.
For some reason, Ruan Yu was not angry, and there was still some inexplicable panic in her heart.
This fool is affectionate.
"I'm their daughter after all, and they won't do anything to me no matter how willful they are. Your words ......"
"Don't worry, I have the strength to protect myself." Lu Ye tapped it on the table with a fan.
Ruan Yu looked at him and didn't answer.
She didn't know what was going on in the court, and she didn't know Lu Ye's strength, but it was impossible for her to believe him with such a sentence.
"You'll find out in a few days." Lu Ye smiled again, "Wait and see." ”
"See what?" Ruan Yu became nervous.
Lu Ye glanced at her and guessed what she was thinking, "Don't worry, you won't do anything to the emperor." Lu Ye touched the wounds on his body, and the corners of his mouth curled into a cold and hard arc, "Someone has taken great pains to deal with me, and I naturally can't let him down." ”
