Chapter 45: The Strangeness of the Little Prince (I)

Cao Ran looked around and barely hugged a stone pillow to protect herself, didn't bother to put on shoes, pinched her feet and got up to check in the room.

In front of the window, the little prince sat cross-legged and hung half a foot above the round table, his head slightly bowed, his eyes closed. Cao Ran called the little prince lightly, and walked quickly to find that the little prince was snorting steadily, as if he was asleep, and when he raised his hand to touch, he suddenly heard a man's deep voice behind the little prince: "Don't touch him, don't want to hurt him, stay with him." ”

Cao Ran was frightened by the sudden warning, and walked around behind the little prince, and Linjun, who was still dressed in white and silver, closed his eyes slightly. Under the silver mask, only the thin lips were exposed, and the thick eyelashes fluttered on the cold mask, and the thin red lips were quietly closed, as if the voice just now did not come from here. Linjun's fair-skinned and slender palm moved slowly and orderly at the finger of the little prince's back, carrying a mist like a mist as the fingers moved.

"What is this doing?" Cao Ran was stunned by the scene in front of her, the little prince was indeed hanging in the air, and the actions of Linjun behind her surprised her even more, what kind of magic skill was this practicing? Looking closely at the little prince's face, his expression is as calm as if he was asleep, and his breathing is no problem, and his face seems to be more ruddy than in the daytime.

She reached out to touch the little prince's forehead, wanting to confirm whether his body temperature was too hot to breathe, and as soon as her fingers touched the skin, she saw that large beads of sweat appeared on the little prince's forehead in an instant.

"Don't you understand? Don't touch him! Linjun's voice suppressed anger.

Cao Ran hurriedly withdrew his hand, and gradually the little prince's face improved. He didn't answer her question, but seeing that although his expression was calm and his temples were slightly damp, it was also very hard, so she didn't say anything more, and took a step back to keep a distance that was not far away.

Although I was very worried, I couldn't intervene in the situation, and it wouldn't be a sin if there was really a good guy who hurt the little prince. As for what Linjun was doing to the little prince, she thought she might as well wait and see what happened.

Linjun's lips faded, and after a while, he withdrew his palm, and the little prince's body fell on the table, and his weak body leaned back softly in front of Linjun. The little prince still had a steady snort, a ruddy face, and slept soundly.

"Why don't you come over here and carry him back to bed." Lin Jun's voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of waking up the little prince and seemed to be tired.

Cao Ran woke up and hurriedly stepped forward to grab the body of the little baby, although the little baby is not big and half a person high, but it is very real, and she has a little difficulty holding it a few steps. She covered the quilt for the little prince and stroked his forehead, everything was normal.

Turning around, he was about to ask Linjun what he meant, but Linjun had already turned around and walked to the door. He held the door with one hand and made a push, his back to Cao Ran, and his voice was still cold and couldn't distinguish his emotions, "From today on, I will give him ice water to soak for half an hour every day, and I will send him back to Qi in a month." ”

Don't allow her to ask more, Linjun's white shadow has already opened the door and left.

The next day, the little prince woke up and there was nothing unusual, he was still chatting with her about how restrictive life here was, and now he couldn't even go to other palaces to find a little eunuch.

In fact, Cao Ran felt that he did not suffer any grievances as a proton, clothing, food, and housing were all regarded as the prince's equivalent treatment, and there was a maid Lianxin and a little eunuch Fuzi close to him, although they were not the cronies brought by the little prince from Qi State, and they did not treat the little prince as a proton, and they took care of it every day.

Every day at noon, Lianxin would prepare a wooden bucket of ice water, and Fuzi chased the little prince all over the yard and finally stripped him naked and threw him into the ice water to soak for half an hour.

At first, Cao Ran saw Fuzi adding ice to the barrel one by one, and was very worried that if such a young child soaked in it for half an hour, something would happen. However, Lianxin calmly peeled off the little prince and put it in, and said to her: "The little prince has been soaked like this for half an hour every half a month in the past two years, and his body has long been used to it. And the chasing game with Fuzi before soaking is also a set of processes that have always been in place.

Sure enough, the little prince did not have the normal stress response when he entered the ice water, and his body stretched as if he was soaking in comfortable warm water. Ice cubes larger than fists melt quickly, and Fukuko adds ice to the barrel faster and faster to maintain the temperature of the water.

Cao Ran was surprised, but no one gave her an answer. The little prince was also confused, he guessed that this was Beiyan's abuse of his proton identity, and fortunately, he was not afraid of the cold and talented Emperor Beiyan was unwilling to use this trick on him from time to time.

Cao Ran knew that the child's statement couldn't be believed, not to mention that this conjecture was simply too nonsensical, if Emperor Yan wanted to abuse him, wouldn't it be difficult to change the means! And she'd never heard of anyone so unafraid of the cold.

The little prince's body absorbs the ice gas faster and faster, and every winter when there is an ice cellar in each palace will reserve the ice cubes used for a year, and the little prince's palace is also set aside according to the amount of ice bath once every half month. But I didn't expect the frequency of the little prince soaking in ice water and the speed at which his body melted the ice faster and faster, and in a few days, there was not much ice left in the ice cellar, and most of the ice cubes that Fuzi brought today were some small ice slags, which turned into water in the blink of an eye.

I barely soaked for half an hour, and the water temperature was much higher than usual. Fuzi said that he had borrowed it from other applications for ice cellars in the palace, but he would not be transferred until tomorrow at the earliest. Cao Ran thought that it was not a delay, and the little prince was not unusual, so he didn't take it to heart.

At night, the moon in the sky was already seven or eight minutes round, and the clouds floating in the night sky blocked the moonlight from flickering and dimming.

The little prince sat at the round table, drinking the chrysanthemum tea in the bowl cup after cup, Lianxin had already helped him refill two pots, he still couldn't get enough of his thirst, maybe the braised fish he always loved to eat today was salty, anyway, if he drank too much water, there would be no problem except for getting up at night, Cao Ran let him drink enough.

After three pots of tea, he finally put down the teacup, but he refused to fall asleep. The little prince took off his coat barefoot, and still felt extremely hot, the night in the early summer in the north was actually not very hot, on the contrary, Cao Ran still had to cover the quilt at night. The little prince sat at the head of the bed, large beads of sweat running down his back, soaking the only silk shirt on his body.

Cao Ran wet the towel and kept wiping it for him, the sweat on the little prince's body seemed to be flowing endlessly, and the strange thing was that his body temperature was normal. Seeing that the little prince's face was getting weaker and weaker, she changed the towel on his forehead and got up to prepare to leave the hospital to find Linjun, who must know what happened to the little prince.
