Chapter Twenty-Three: Bedriddenness
At the beginning of the shift, he rubbed his head with water and sniffed it gently, hey, isn't this the smell of wormwood, the vanilla that is always available in the inner rooms of the royal family, how can it be...?
Daishui slowly opened his eyes, there was an unfamiliar bed curtain in front of him, and he carefully recalled what happened yesterday, stared, got up and walked towards the hall.
The room was not yet lit, it was all lit by a few candles from last night, and the inner sanctum was much larger than the room just now, and there was a faint smell of ambergris in the air. Although the decoration is simple, it shows the tone and luxury everywhere, which should be his bedroom.
The bed in front is framed by four carved camphor wood pillars, and the bed tent seems to be outlined by the texture of the golden pine moon, like a man's sleep. Daishui is about to turn around and leave to avoid it, after all, there is a difference between men and women, and it is in the palace, so it is better to be careful everywhere.
His left foot slammed into something hard, he took a deep breath with water, his center of gravity was unstable, and the whole person fell to the bed.
The body touched a piece of softness, this mattress was really comfortable, turned over with water, and was about to get up, but bumped into a pair of dark eyes staring at him half-asleep in front of him.
"Ah-", Daisui just screamed, but his mouth was covered with a big hand, and his lips could still sense the coarse calluses on his hands, Daishui recognized that the person in front of him was Jing Yao, and was about to avoid his entanglement, but he heard the front door push open.
The voice came from far and near, and Lin Chi didn't know who to babble, "Grandma... Your Highness is really sleeping, I have a few heads for you to break in like this! ”
Then a seemingly delicate but domineering female voice replied, "Xiao Chizi, if you stop me again, you will be confronting the princess, and I will go to the mother to complain!" ”
Lin Chi obviously didn't hold anyone back, and the two of them had already arrived at the side hall while talking, and they were about to walk in. The little face with the water was startled, and he hurriedly got into the futon at hand and hid himself tightly. Jing Yao looked unfazed, half of his arms were on his lean, his clothes were irregular, and he looked at the door casually.
The woman entered the main hall but changed her accent, and greeted her with resentment, "Brother Ziyao, there are still a few days left to become enlightened, and Daddy will rest in the palaces for three days, can you take me out of the palace to play!" ”
Three days of rest? The water in the quilt is full of this sentence, if the spiritual dining room is also forgiven, wouldn't he be able to go back to Agarwood Valley to see his father.
Jing Yao reclined as if he had turned a deaf ear and looked at Linchi on the side.
Lin Chi seemed to have eaten a few taels of Coptis chinensis, with a look of resentment, "Your Highness, Princess Qingpu came suddenly, I really...".
Qingpu looked at Jing Yao sullenly, "Brother, I won't do this next time, people really haven't seen you for a long time", maybe her voice was a little weaker, she looked at the people inside carefully through the bed, "Hey, Brother Ziyao, haven't you collapsed yet", as she said that, she stepped forward to open a corner to take a look, but happened to bump into Jing Yao's untidy appearance, and turned back in shame.
Jing Yao's slightly hoarse voice came out, "Qingpu, if your appearance is neither big nor small, if it is transmitted to the queen mother...".
Qingpu raised her eyebrows, covered her ears and said, "Okay, okay, my brother will know that I am still lying in bed on the third pole of the sun, so you are not up or down!" ”
Linchi stood aside at a loss, yesterday the master drank a lot of wine, only returned in the middle of the night, now Xu is only half of the wine awakened, the mood is not much better, this Qingpu princess just picked this time, what a headache.
Jing Yao's black hair had not yet been curled, draped behind him, a little lazy, he gently picked the futon with one hand, and said with a smile, "There is a beautiful person, and the night is as long as a year."
Qing Pu was arrogant in the end, thinking that Jing Yao was praising himself, so he followed Linchi to wait outside the hall.
But it was the water under the quilt, and Jing Yao was shocked into a cold sweat, and he dragged the quilt tightly, for fear of being discovered by the princess, until the footsteps of the two walked out of the door, only half of their heads were exposed, panting for breath.
Jing Yao looked at the reddened little face and vigilant look, and rarely laughed, "I don't know when you were so bold."
Dai Shui Dai frowned slightly, looked at Jing Yao unhappily, and said, "There are really a lot of peach blossoms under the Fifth Highness, and the princess is waiting outside, telling me how to get out."
Jing Yao suddenly leaned down, lay down a foot away from the water, and pinched the corners of his eyebrows, "Wait, be obedient." ”
The deep voice was like a mantra echoing in Daisui's ears, which made her quiet for an instant, and then added, "Linchi took her out, she can't come back for a long time, don't worry", and there was a sound of even breathing.
Daishui turned to look at the quiet side face of the man in front of him, remembering what happened last night, but he couldn't understand him a little. Raised his hand to pick up the futon on his body, gently pressed it on Jing Yao's body, curled up with his back, and fell asleep with the incense in the room.
