Chapter 240: Concealment
Gu Mingxiu slept for two days.
When she woke up, it was in the middle of the night the next day. At that time, there was a slight rain outside the window, and the leaf veins were knocked down by water droplets, and the sound was clear and good. She woke up from her slumber, and the objects in her eyes gradually changed from blurry to clear, and the first thing that caught her ears was the sound of raindrops falling and the subtle sound of flipping books.
She tilted her head slightly, and then she saw Shen Huai.
The young man had probably just bathed, wearing only a white single coat and a dark coat, and was lazily leaning on the small collapse to read. It was drizzling outside, the house was burning with warmth, and the young man's eyebrows and eyes were cold, hidden between the lights, with a little bit of laziness. He stared intently at the pages in his hand, not noticing any movement.
Gu Mingxiu blinked, raised his hand to stroke the corner of his forehead, and slowly sat up.
She just sat up, and Shen Huai came to her. The young man casually threw the scroll aside, stretched out his hand to probe the corner of the other party's forehead, and stared at her with a faint raised eye: "Do you feel uncomfortable?" He stared at her thoughtfully, his gaze revolving from her abdomen to her abdomen, silently withdrawing his gaze.
"Nothing." Gu Mingxiu shook his head, as if he remembered something, and looked up and asked him, "How long have I been sleeping..... Did anything happen after that day? ”
Shen Huai stretched out his hand to pull her clothes, draped the big coat on the other party's shoulder, and said lightly: "Not long, it's only been two days." Looking at Gu Mingxiu's gaze, Shen Huai said, "It's nothing, I disposed of those people and brought you back." You are not in good health, don't toss around, as for Qiao Wu, in your own yard. ”
The jaw head signaled that he understood, and Gu Mingxiu said: "We are calculated, but it doesn't hurt if you don't say it." She lowered her head as if to concentrate on it, and her eyes lit with quiet trust. Shen Huai knocked on the bed, and a smile curled on his lips: "Huh? You trust this king so much that you don't even want to explain it. ”
"That day I was calculated at the same time as Qiao Wu, I didn't understand the meaning of the Queen Mother calling Qiao Wu into the palace, but now I understand." Gu Mingxiu said, she didn't have any panic on her face when she spoke, but was extremely calm, as if she didn't care if Shen Huai would suspect her, or... I didn't think Shen Huai would doubt her at all.
Shen Huai looked at her quietly, and after she slowly explained the events of that day, he slowly brought a smile on his face. As if to dispel his displeasure, the young man suddenly laughed, raised his eyebrows, and said, "You can sleep for a while, it is not yet dawn." When it's dawn, I'll ask Qiao Wu to take a look at you. ”
Although Gu Mingxiu had just woken up, there was indeed a faint sleepiness on his face. Shen Huai sighed and reached out to rub her cheek. The young man's fingers were cold and comfortable, and rubbing her slightly hot cheeks was very comfortable. Gu Mingxiu didn't ask much, but just agreed, and then lay down and fell asleep again.
Shen Huai carefully folded the quilt for her, waited quietly for a while, and then slowly went out after Gu Mingxiu fell asleep peacefully.
Mozhu was waiting at the door, carefully fiddling with the stove. Agarwood sat quietly beside her, and when they saw Shen Huai come out, the two of them immediately got up
Body, Mo Zhu looked at him a little nervously, and unconsciously clenched his clothes: "Your Highness, Your Highness, has the princess just woken up?" Do you need slaves and maids to come in and serve? ”
"No, she's asleep." Shen Huai replied lightly, the young man looked up at the dark night, and only slowly spoke after a while, "Regarding the princess's pregnancy, the two of you keep it a secret from the outside world, including the princess herself..... Not a word is allowed. From today onwards, you should do the things of fetal pills with your own hands, and don't go through other people's hands. ”
Mo Zhu was shocked, but he just lowered his head and said, "Yes, the slave knows." ”
Shen Huai didn't say anything more, just turned around and walked towards the outside of the courtyard. He went straight to Qiao Wu's courtyard, but the man in cloth had not fallen asleep yet, and when he saw him coming, he saluted respectfully, and only when Shen Huai sat down did he ask clearly: "Is the princess awake?" ”
Shen Huai said: "How is it?" ”
The question was clueless, but Qiao Wu understood. He nodded at the table, looked at Shen Huai with a little embarrassment and strangeness, and then said slowly: "The princess is indeed pregnant, this pulse will not be wrong, it is a month's body, it is true." She should have been thinking too much these days, so she would faint, and it was indeed true that it was not very good for the fetus. The Imperial Doctor was not wrong..... She is weak, this child may not teach her well, don't say that the process of raising a baby.... When it comes to birth, there will inevitably be a certain danger, and it doesn't matter whether you can keep the child or not.... Maybe the princess won't be able to keep it. ”
The expression of the young man opposite was between the light of the lights, and the light under his eyes was bright and flickering, revealing a bit of gloom and coldness. His hands rested carelessly on the table, his expression cold and dangerous.
After a moment of silence, Shen Huai slowly spoke: "Then if it is, what if you don't want this child?" ”
His tone was cold and indifferent, as if he were talking about someone who had nothing to do with him.
A sudden chill in his heart suddenly made him feel cold, Qiao Wu carefully observed Shen Huai's expression, and said intermittently: "If His Royal Highness is worried about the princess's body.... I'm afraid I can't rush it. This kid is only a month, a month old... The fetus is unstable, if you don't want this child, I'm afraid that the princess will be more or less damaged. He muttered in his heart, and said cautiously, "If Your Highness really doesn't want this child.... If you wait for two months, the March fetal elephant will be stable, and at that time, if Your Highness still wants to ....."
He didn't finish speaking, but he shuddered in his heart: If Shen Huai really likes Gu Mingxiu, this love is too frightening. In any case, the child is innocent, Shen Huai doesn't want it, and Gu Mingxiu may not want to..... This child was decided by Shen Huai to stay like this, or was it without Gu Mingxiu knowing..... In the end, he couldn't help but sigh.
Shen Huai curled his lips and laughed coldly: "You think of a way for this king to get rid of this child while stabilizing the princess's body, and you can't teach the princess to notice that something is wrong." ”
Hearing this, Qiao couldn't help but widen his eyes, and this time he was a little complaining and surprised: "I said Your Highness, aren't you embarrassed?" Where did it come from
So a good idea?? The little girl was already weak," as soon as he complained, he forgot to call Princess Gu Mingxiu, and called her a little girl, "If you don't want this child at this time, I'm afraid it won't be good for her!" ”
"If you are really worried about the little girl, if you don't, you can give birth to it, maybe there is another way when the child is born, it is really a bit difficult for you to hide it from the little girl-" Leng Buding looked at Shen Huai's gaze, and saw that his eyes were shining with indifference, Qiao Wu subconsciously stopped.
The young man's eyebrows were cold, and there was no trace of a smile on his lips: "This child can't stay, and the princess can't know the slightest bit of news." This king doesn't care how you solve it, in short, this king only needs the result. ”
Qiao frowned in embarrassment, and said after a while: "Your Highness, I have a reluctant request." ”
The young man's eyebrows were hidden behind the lights, and he couldn't see it really: "Oh? ”
Since that day, Gu Mingxiu has been asked by Shen Huai to recuperate in King Xiao's mansion. The young man who was very obedient to her in the past didn't know what was wrong, so he asked Luo Feng to move all his official duties back to King Xiao's mansion, and he just reviewed them in the mansion every day, and he didn't go to the other places, and he didn't allow others to come to see Gu Mingxiu.
She feels tired every day these days, and when she asked Qiao Wu, she said that she was thinking too much some time ago, which caused old diseases in the past, so she needed to have a good life and recuperate..... Gu Mingxiu also fulfilled their wish and didn't toss anything. Shen Huai practiced martial arts in the courtyard, so she shrunk on the chaise longue to read the books next to her, Shen Huai occasionally played the flute to her, and was willing to allow her to play a piano when Gu Mingxiu was in good spirits.
Mo Zhu and the others also took care of her more and more carefully, and the entire Xiao Wangfu was inexplicably filled with a tense atmosphere.
Gu Mingxiu felt strange in her heart, but she didn't ask more.
After a while, an unexpected person came to Xiao Wangfu.
"I say, that's how you treat a person of such an age? The carriage was so hurried and so fast, and I was not afraid that the old bones would be broken by you. Early in the morning, Gu Mingxiu was reading a book in the courtyard, and he heard someone complaining in the front yard, and his tone was full of dissatisfaction, "Hmph, one or two are with that stinky boy, and they don't know the slightest etiquette." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Luo Feng's voice was respectful, with a little helplessness, "My master will be back in a while, he really has something to do today, please take care of it." Come, old man, go this way—"
"Go and go, I heard that he stayed in the house every day a few days ago, and he didn't go anywhere. Why did he run away as soon as the old decay came? Don't you want to see old age? Hey, what are you blocking here, you kid, the old man knows how to go inside! The old eyes are good! ”
"Yes, yes, hey, wait—Master, wait! That's my princess's yard, you can't go there-"
Without waiting for Luo Feng to jump to his feet, Mo Zhu glanced out strangely, and Agarwood glanced at Mo Zhu as if he was soothing, and was about to get up to check. Before she could take two steps, an unusually familiar figure approached—the man was dressed simply, in a gray robe, and carrying a huge one in his hand
The burden, I don't know what's in it, but it looks quite heavy.
Qiao Wu followed slowly, with a little smile in his eyes, and spread his hands towards Gu Mingxiu from afar.
Luo Feng followed behind him, and seeing that he had already taken a look at Gu Mingxiu, he couldn't help but say with a bitter face: "Princess...."
The old man ignored Luo Feng, just looked at Gu Mingxiu with a smile, his eyes wandered around, as if he was barely satisfied, and said, "Okay." The stinky boy married a daughter-in-law, and the layout here doesn't want to be as lifeless as in the past, hey, being a man, you just have to have a wife, you say yes or no? Little girl. ”
"Don't come to harm, the old man looks at you and looks good, hahahaha."
