Chapter 28: The Gentle Prince
In King Xuan's Mansion, in the study, the three of them all looked at Bai Jian himself, making him a little uncomfortable.
"Okay, okay, I said not yet. Your eyes are almost killing me! ”
"Son! Dare to speak outrageously! ”
Taibai Gong really has nothing to do with this son. Because he was fostered in a relative's house since he was a child, he neglected to discipline him, and he thought that he would be sent to Kyoto when he became an adult, and he was looking for a half-official position, but who knew that he had sneaked away by himself, and there was no trace of him since.
So Taibai Gong also resigned for this son and traveled all over the world to inquire about his whereabouts. Who knew that a few years later it would be like meeting in this situation.
"How can I leave home secretly, I just want to break into the world by myself, I don't want to be an official for the rest of my life!"
"You...!"
"Don't worry, don't worry!" Cui Zirui hurriedly pulled Taibai Gong to play the round, "Then where did you go, how did you run into the army of the Eastern Fence Kingdom?" ”
"That's a long story." Bai Jian took a sip of tea, "Originally, I wanted to rob the rich and help the poor to be a hero who upholds justice, by the way, Lord Xuan, you know, the thief Bai Yu is me!" ”
"Yes." Cui Zi reluctantly responded.
Obviously he is a thief, where does he get his confidence!
"Originally, my hero was a good man, but one day I met a person who claimed to be the princess of Dongli Country in the restaurant, and she said that she wanted me to be his personal guard, and then ran to Dongli Country for some reason."
Of course, he omitted how Princess Dongli met him, otherwise, he would definitely be beaten to death by his father on the spot!
"This princess wants me to help him investigate the matter of Ye Chizhu, I also told the prince about this matter, that Sali is the head of the guard of the Eastern Fence Country, and the purpose of their coming here is to thoroughly find out the situation in our country, I guess that they are just the vanguard troops, this team is destroyed, and they will send people over again soon."
"According to what you said, you and theirs have different purposes, could it be that the forces in the Eastern Fence Country also belong to different ones?"
"Yes, the Great Lord. The infighting in the East Fence Kingdom is now very serious, the old emperor is terminally ill, and the prince is anxious to seize the throne, but Ye Chizhu, who represents the future owner of the throne, is in the hands of the princess, so the prince regards her as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh. But now that the night red pearl is also missing, there are rumors in the court that it was stolen to Kyoto, so the princess sent me to investigate secretly. ”
"I see. So what did you find? What is the Night Red Bead? ”
Cui Zirui was a little puzzled, he had seen countless treasures in the palace all day long, but he had never heard of this thing.
"Yeming red jade pearl, as the name suggests, will glow red at night, its soaked water can cure all kinds of diseases, so it is also called the pearl of healing, I heard that it is the mouth of the dragon in ancient times, just because this dragon did a lot of evil, was killed by the heavens, the jewel will fall into the world, who knows that it will appear in the east fence such a wild place."
Taibai Gong stroked his silver hair and said slowly.
"I heard from the princess that this jewel was a relic given to her by her mother before her death, so she valued it very much."
In the following time, Bai Jian's eyebrows danced and recounted how brave he was in the East Fence Country and how he received the princess's appreciation for his heroic deeds.
The rest of the people were not interested in listening anymore.
"Master, I have something important, so I left first, and in recent days, I have asked the master to stay in the house again. Zidu still has some things to ask the teacher. ”
"Okay, you go first."
Taibai Gong only wanted to teach this son a lesson, and he didn't keep them longer.
Moreover, Cui Zidu was anxious to see Qin Si's situation, and left directly without listening to him.
"Uncle Wang, how is Sisi's situation?"
"Don't worry, Lord Wang, Miss Sisi has woken up just now, and Miss Yan'er and the girl are watching inside."
"Okay, Uncle Wang, you go and clean up the two rooms and come out, there have been more guests in the house recently, say hello to everyone, and don't slack off."
Cui Zidu pushed the door open, and it happened that Yan'er helped Qin Si to sit up slowly. Seeing that she had become so weak and cute, his heart was as painful as a knife.
"White... White..."
Her voice was completely unable to produce normal sounds, and she could only make intermittent noises that were like withering.
"Don't talk yet," Cui Zi understood what he was thinking. "Bai Jian is very good, he is resting in the mansion now, I will let him come and see you when you are a little better."
“……”
Qin Si smiled with relief, Cui Zi could know exactly what she was worried about, which made her feel very relieved.
"Does your neck still hurt?"
“……”
Qin Si shook her head and gave a thumbs up, indicating that she was fine and her neck didn't hurt anymore. She didn't want Cui Zidu to worry, and tried to avoid showing a painful expression.
Looking at the shocking pinch marks on her snow-white neck, Cui Zidu's heart ached. This time she was hurt so much, that Mosa must not be able to spare him.
"Lord Wang, the medicine is boiled." The girl stood outside the door with a bowl.
"Just come here, the king will come, you can go and get busy." Cui Zidu helped Qin Si well, and carefully blew the decoction cold.
Seeing this scene, Qin Si suddenly felt so warm in his heart.
No one has ever cared about herself like this, even in modern times, when she is sick, she sleeps in the bed and sleeps in the dark, and now, not only is someone around to ask for warmth, but also personally feeds him medicine, she can have such happiness, she feels that her neck is nothing.
"Come on, drink slowly and don't be in a hurry."
Cui Zi only fed him a little bit every time, and she was worried that she would spit out in pain when she swallowed.
Although Qin Si was taking the medicine one bite after another, he could see that every bite she swallowed was painful, and every time she swallowed, her eyebrows would wrinkle together in pain, and fine beads of sweat slowly oozed from her forehead.
"If it's too painful, don't eat it, take a break."
“......”
Qin Si shook his head and opened his mouth again, meaning to continue to finish the medicine.
"That.... Take your time..."
Cui Zidu looked at her uncomfortable appearance and blamed herself so much. He shouldn't have let Qin Si move out from the beginning, so she wouldn't be hurt.
"Ahem..... Ahem....."
Cui Zidu patronized and blamed herself, and accidentally choked Qin Si, the violent cough made her neck hurt sharply, Qin Si covered her neck and collapsed directly on the bed, although she had tried her best to hold back, she still shed tears in pain.
"Sisi! Sisi, are you okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... It's all the king's careless ......"
Cui Zidu was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
“.... Not... Affair.... Ahem...."
Qin Si got up and squeezed out a smile with difficulty, "Don't.. Picul... Heart...."
Seeing that the person in front of him looked painful and pretending to be strong, Cui Zidu stretched out his hand and pulled her directly into his arms.
"I'm sorry, it's because this king didn't protect you!" Cui Zidu hugged the person who made him worry about him all the time, and he tightened his arms hard, as if to integrate her into his body.
"I know.... You've always been ..... In protecting me...."
Because Qin Si could only make a faint sound, she leaned into Cui Zidu's ear and gently comforted him.
"Thank you for saving me."
"Sisi...."
Cui Zidu gently stroked her long hair, this woman seems to be weak on the outside, but her heart is much stronger than she imagined. However, the stronger she is, the more distressed he feels.
And the woman who made him feel distressed was slowly wrapping around his shoulders and gently patting him on the back.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Cui Zidu's expression of self-reproach, which made him feel guilty himself. It's all because I'm too reckless, so I cause trouble for everyone.
In fact, she has always known that she is protected, of course, this person is the only one who can do this.
Cui Zidu's embrace is so warm, it makes her unconsciously want to rely on it tightly, and she hopes that time can stand still from now on, and she has always stayed at this warm moment.
Every day after that, Cui Zi would come over on time to feed Qin Si with food and medicine.
"How do you feel today, can you eat something?"
"Hmm... A little bit. ”
"This is the porridge that the girl cooked for you, and the king has instructed her to cook it softer. Try it, and if you can't swallow it, don't force it. ”
"Okay." Qin Si would face such a gentle prince every day, which made her fascinated, and she even hoped that she would be better if she was sick every day.
"Come on, eat slowly."
Cui Zidu fed her little by little, and the soft and glutinous rice grains could be swallowed almost without chewing. She tried to eat a few bites, but she didn't feel very painful, and began to eat with confidence. I haven't eaten properly for days, and I'm really hungry. Although the girl will change the method to stew ginseng and lingzhi for her to eat every day, it is still not as delicious as the grain.
"Eat slowly, be careful."
Seeing her eating happily, Cui Zidu's psychology was also much more comforted. He couldn't eat anything in the past few days, and Qin Si had already lost a lot of weight.
"How's it going, is it delicious?"
"Hmm!"
Qin Si raised his head happily like a child, it felt so good to be able to eat! It's the first time she thinks the big white porridge is so delicious!
"Oh, look at you, it's all over the place!"
Looking at her appearance, Cui Zi couldn't help laughing.
"Don't move yet, the corners of your mouth are stained."
He stretched out his hand to gently brush the remaining rice grains from the corners of his mouth, and his fingertips brushed over her soft lips, the touch made him unconsciously stop the movements of his hands.
Such an ambiguous atmosphere made Qin Si unable to think at all, so he could only be stunned there, and the bodies of both of them were as if they had been electrified, unable to move at all.
"Sisi ....."
The voice full of charm sounded again, and her heart began to beat uncontrollably again as she looked at his slowly deep eyes.
Cui Zidu seems to like calling her name like this recently, and he can't stand his voice anymore, plus he uses such a voice to call his name ambiguously, this meeting ....... She swallowed unconsciously.
"Good ...... Close your eyes ......."
“.......”
At this time, Cui Zidu had already turned into a bewitching beast, and his proximity made Qin Si's brain unable to think anymore, and he obediently closed his eyes as if he was bewitched by him.
It's closer....... It's close....
She could feel the slightly hot breath spilling down her neck..... This moment .... It's really coming!
"Sister Sisi! Sister Sisi! Where are you? You're not badly injured! ”
Troublemakers tend to show up at important moments, and that's true.
At this time, Cui Zi had no scruples about brotherhood, he must have taken a sword and went out to kill the person who disturbed his good deeds.
"Ann.... Ange... Outside, you're going to let me go..."
Qin Sijiao was too shy to speak loudly, so he could only gently push his chest.
Seeing such a gentle and cute little person shyly curled up in his arms, and his skin turned into a seductive pink because of his shyness, Cui Zidu had the urge to eat her directly here for the first time!
But...... Things tend to go in the opposite direction....
"Sister Sisi, open the door, I took a lot of medicine!! I asked for them from my father, and I will be able to heal your wounds!" Sister Sisi! Sister Sisi! ”
Cui Zidu sighed helplessly, if he continued like this, his door would definitely be smashed by An Ge!
"You have a good rest, this king will come to see you another day."
There was no way to taste her cherry lips, so Cui Zidu gently kissed her forehead.
"Hmm....." Qin Si raised his head and smiled shyly.
"Don't play too late, get some rest."
He helped Qin Si to lie down, and then walked out with a blushing face.
"Second brother, you are also here, Sister Sisi....... You.... Why are you looking at me like that..... I can... I didn't do anything... The second brother spared his life....."
Listening to the screams outside the door, you don't have to think about it to know that An Ge is suffering physically, mentally and physically.
Qin Si, who was lying on the bed, was wrapped in a quilt at the moment and secretly recalled the picture that made him blush and heartbeat just now.
Cui Zidu just now ..... It's so gentle! Unexpectedly, he still has such a side! It also made her a little happy.
