Chapter 271: Mysterious Man
Somehow, from the moment he saw Xiao Qinglang and Wei Yan who said that they were going to collect firewood, and Wei Yan wanted to speak and stopped, Xu Chu's heart was very unsteady.
However, due to the large number of people, she didn't show anything.
A few people simply used some roasted game, drank some spring water from the leaves, and the uninjured guards spontaneously went to guard the entrance of the cave.
And the injured people were helping each other check their injuries by the fire, naturally, at this time, Aunt Chu was indispensable to help.
When the surroundings were quiet again, Xu Chu looked at Xiao Qinglang and said, "How is the wound on your body?" Let me see."
Xiao Qinglang was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously smiled, "It's okay." ”
Xu Chu pursed his lips, and there were faint water marks under his eyes, "You have always had the smell of green bamboo, but tonight you have changed to the ointment that Aunt Chu used for me to invigorate blood and remove blood stasis." You're obviously injured, so why are you hiding it from me? ”
Xiao Qinglang had never seen Xu Chu like this, and he had already felt sorry in his heart, so he didn't dare to hold it anymore, so he only shook his head and said, "It's just some gravel scratches, and it's not in the way." ”
Although he said this, he didn't dare to stop Xu Chu's action of pulling his sleeve. The scars on his arms were exposed, and although the ointment had been applied, they were still a little red and swollen.
After reading his arm, Xu Chu didn't say a word, and went towards Xiao Qinglang's collar. made Xiao Qinglang stunned, protecting his clothes and crying and laughing.
"Xiao Chu, Wei Guang, they are looking at you!"
Usually, whenever Xu Chu is teased, he will always be red-faced, not to mention in front of everyone. But this time, for some reason, she didn't care, but whispered annoyedly, "Just look at it, it's not like I haven't seen it." ”
Xu was dragged a few times, but before he could pull his neckline open, Xu Chu couldn't help but look up at him and said, "What can't you see?" I don't know how many times I've seen those male corpses, could it be that there is something different about you and theirs? ”
In just one sentence, let alone Xiao Qinglang, all the guards who had been secretly staring at the two of them were dumbfounded.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they secretly admired in their hearts, Miss Xu really didn't let her eyebrows go, and these words were so shocking that they didn't dare to answer.
Look at the face of his own prince, it is blue and red. can make the prince who has always been unfazed, Taishan collapsed in front of him and his color remained unchanged, since they followed the prince, it seems that Xu Chu is the only one.
Feeling the meaningful expressions of everyone, as well as the eager eyes, Xiao Qinglang glanced over coldly. So, just for a moment, everyone who was still babbling turned their heads to look at the sky and the earth in an instant.
At this time, Xu Chu finally saw the place she wanted to see, and saw that Xiao Qinglang did not have too many scars on his chest, but his back and arms were blurred. She felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but ask softly, "Does it still hurt?" ”
Xiao Qinglang reluctantly let her re-rub the ointment on herself, shook her head and said, "It's just some flesh wounds, which look terrible, but in fact they are not in the way." ”
Xu Chu is a servant, and he is naturally proficient in the matter of injury inspection. She knew that these scars would not be fatal, but they were so deep and red and swollen that they must be unbearable. But now seeing that Xiao Qinglang was so indifferent, she was really hurt and annoyed in her heart.
Thinking of this, she directly reached out and pressed his shoulder blade, and only let go when she saw Xiao Qinglang's face suddenly change and her teeth clenched.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, could it be that you're really an iron man, I don't know the pain?" Xu Chu stared at him, his eyebrows raised, "Xiao Qinglang, I'm not a hypocritical person, but I don't want to see the pain on your body and pretend not to know." I'm a puppet, and I'm the best at examining corpses and wounded, do you think it's a good thing for me to hide the past? ”
"Do you know that I will also be distressed and sad?"
Sometimes, a woman's vexatious troubles are just taking advantage of the opportunity? In fact, it was just uncomfortable, and like now, she really couldn't pretend that everything was okay according to his wishes.
After she finished speaking, she bent down and forced Xiao Qinglang, and said with tears in her eyes, "Even if it's a white lie, I don't want it." What I want is to share your ups and downs, not to sit back and enjoy your protection. ”
Xiao Qinglang was silent for a moment, and his eyes fell on those clear and gentle eyes. He had always known that her eyes were clean, but he didn't know that when those eyes were completely his own figure, it made his heart beat so much.
"I won't be like that in the future." His voice grew deeper, with a hint of laughter and pleasure. It's as if he suddenly found something that he had always thought was out of reach, but he could pick it up.
He always thought he was ready to walk side by side with her. even thought that she had her autopsy to give her the greatest freedom and respect. But now it seems that he is still arrogant.
There are some things that he is willing to take on for her, and so does she.
Not everyone is like a pampered flower that can't withstand the wind and rain. Not everyone is willing to live in a stable world woven by their lover without knowing anything.
He's not, and neither is his Xiao Chu.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing, and his hands took Xu Chu into his arms completely.
He felt an inexplicable emotional surge in his chest, warm, yet constantly expanding, so much so that his limbs stretched out.
Probably this was the most unexpected thing he got in this unexpected assassination.
If he followed his previous actions, maybe it would be really difficult to go further with Xiao Chu. Now, a sudden assassination broke the unknown barrier between him and Xiao Chu, and it also made him suddenly realize.
His sudden laughter made Wei Guang, Wei Yan and the others stunned for a moment, and looked at each other. Before they could look back, they saw Aunt Chu fly over with a cold knife eye, and warned, "What do you see, I haven't seen flirting and scolding!" Beware of seeing the prince annoyed"
When several people heard this, they hurriedly withdrew their heads and touched their noses at the same time.
Wei Guang whispered, "I've seen it, I've seen it, but haven't I seen our prince emotional?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Yan, who was pretending to be a coachman on the side, coaxed, "Then you take a look first, and tell the brothers what the expressions of the prince and Miss Chu are now." After speaking, he looked at a brother beside him and encouraged, "San'er, don't you know how to lip talk?" Give us a show."
As soon as Wei Guang heard this, he immediately shrunk his neck, glared at him and said, "I treat you as a brother, but you treat me as a bird, Wei Yan, you kid is really a bad belly." ”
On the other side, the secret guard who was called San'er by Wei Yan was also a little aggrieved, "Boss, is this a mission?" ”
A few people made such a fuss, even the guards and secret guards who were silent all the way were a little more angry.
In fact, although assassinations are not happening every day, they have long been commonplace. It's like, the brother who is still laughing and joking today may die tomorrow to save the prince.
This is their fate, and it is also what they are willing to do.
It's not that they are noble, but that the prince deserves their following. The so-called death of a confidant is probably like this.
The breeze outside the cave swept by, the birds and insects chirped, far and near, and the virtual and the real were like illusions. And in the lonely mountains, the group supported each other like this and rested all night.
And this night, Xiao Qinglang did not abide by the rules for the first time, wrapped Xu Chu in his robe, and let her struggle and never let go, until she fell asleep peacefully in his arms.
Late at night, he was worried that Xu Chu would catch a cold, and his hands kept warming her feet. Even if Xu Chu's feet were stained with blood and mud, he never disliked half of it.
Now he is actually really lucky, glad that he had made arrangements before, so that he would not really fall into a desperate situation and hurt each other. When he relaxed, whenever he thought of the scene where those people stabbed at Xu Chu with murderous intent, his heart couldn't help but feel afraid.
And that kind of fear and apprehension can only be slowly eliminated by feeling the breathing sound of the person in your arms.
I don't know how long it took, Xiao Qinglang also fell asleep. And Wei Guang, Wei Yan and others were also on duty in two batches, and the rest found a place to rest.
And in an unknown courtyard, I saw the iron-masked man standing on the side of the lotus pond before, and muttered with a complicated expression, "Rou'er, she is really like you, ho ho for twenty years, and sure enough, as you said, she came back to take revenge on me."
After a pause, the complexity and pain in his eyes were replaced by the gloomy owl, and the murmur that was as gentle as water just now became a gloomy curse, "It's just a dead man, and you dare to take revenge, you really can't do it in the world if you come back from the dead!" ”
After some twists and turns, he finally pursed his lips and called the old man from before to come forward.
"Can you find any trace of the girl's adoptive father?"
The old man shook his head, and said with a shameful face, "Young master, that servant seems to have disappeared, and there is no news from the lowly person for the time being." ”
The man in the iron mask squinted slightly, and sneered, "Ho, there are people sent by Xiao Qinglang to interfere, and that group of wastes can find talents!" That's it, put this matter aside for the time being, and they will eventually arrive in the capital one day. ”
The capital is not a place where you can do whatever you want. If one day, they inadvertently become traitors, then even Xiao Qinglang, the king of Jing'an, is afraid that it will not be easy to protect.
"Young master, the matter between Jinzhou City and Yunzhou City"
The man in the iron mask was a little impatient, and said coldly, "Cut off all ties with Jinzhou City and Yunzhou City, and let people track you and me at this time." ”
"In addition, don't stop on the side of the Seventeen Kingdoms in Northern Xinjiang, and be sure to make everyone in the capital panic. I want to see how the emperor and Xiao Qinglang can break the game! ”
As dawn fell, there was no one in the courtyard, leaving only a pool full of lotus leaves and a wind-blown water.
At this time, Xu Chu, who was sleeping peacefully, didn't know what kind of conspiracy would be brewing in the capital to deal with her. Or, deal with them!
