123 Fisherman's Profit (and update.)
But this is not a dream, a distressed "Xiangxiang" woke her up from the gains and losses of the dream, she knew that it was really Qi Hui who came, did Pang Gongzi tell him, or did he feel that he was suffering?
There was a very soft sobbing sound in the room, Xiang Xiang nested on Qi Hui's chest, trembling slightly, Qi Hui gently stroked her back, gently broke her cheeks, but couldn't bear to look at Xiang Xiang's aggrieved expression, he didn't know what to do at all, who is to blame for such a thing? For Pang Qianyou, sacrificing a little girl to be beaten is really nothing, do you want to tell her that Xiangxiang is her wife, but who knows what will happen to her again?
"It hurts." Xiangxiang rubbed his tears on Qi Hui's shirt and said delicately, "Can you rub it for me?" ”
But Qi Hui touched it very lightly, Xiangxiang still couldn't help trembling, and he patiently comforted: "I'm careful, I'm not afraid." ”
After that, Xiangxiang didn't speak again, Qi Hui didn't ask anything, one quietly hid in his arms, and the other took care of her pain, in fact, the matter is very simple, why bother to investigate right and wrong, there is nothing more worthy of care than cherishing this moment.
Xiangxiang slept peacefully, and it was also the first time she slept so sweetly since she came to Pang Mansion, as if whether in the cold palace or in the outside world, Qi Hui was really comfortable by her side, so that she could completely relax herself. When Qi Hui left, it was almost dawn, he thought that Xiangxiang would not notice it if he was asleep, but as soon as the warm embrace left, Xiangxiang woke up. But she knew that Qi Hui had to go, and she didn't open her eyes.
It wasn't until she could no longer feel the breath of her lover that tears slipped out of her eyes quietly, she had to be braver and smarter, even if she couldn't become a noble woman like Mr. Shen, if she could protect herself, she would be by Qi Hui's side in the future, she would have a lot of time and leisure, and it would definitely be better than now.
fell asleep in a daze, and woke up the next day in Juan'er's rude drugged medicine, Juan'er really didn't care about anything at all, at first Xiangxiang felt that she was too enthusiastic, but after getting along, she was really a solid and enthusiastic girl, in fact, she didn't need to get along, and it must be good to be a girl who could be left by someone like Mr. Shen. On this day, Juan'er dragged Xiangxiang up and said: "You always can't lie on your stomach, you have to get up and walk around, and you don't hurt your muscles and bones, do you want to be lazy and let me serve you?" ”
As a result, Shen Yan, who entered the door, heard a few words, Juan Er grinned and said that she was going to prepare breakfast, and Shen Yan had the opportunity to ask: "Last night, you met." ”
Xiangxiang nodded, it turned out that Mr. knew that she thought that Qi Hui had not alarmed anyone, and sneaked in here quietly, and hurriedly apologized: "I've caused you trouble." ”
"Don't get in the way, I was with you last night. She quarreled with the third son, and it was easy to cheer up, but now she has fallen back to the bottom. Shen Yan helped Xiangxiang and walked a few steps, sure enough, she didn't hurt her muscles and bones, but her skin and flesh were bruised, and she had to suffer for at least ten days, Shen Yan let Xiangxiang live in her house with peace of mind, and she said more frankly, "Maybe you think Miss Pang will come to say sorry to you, she said yes, but because it was my person who beat me, she said it to me." I think in her eyes, even if she hit the whole kitchen this time, it would be nothing. She is by nature, we have to admit her mistakes and repent, but we are entangled by ourselves. If you don't forgive her, you will be considered to have suffered for the third son, and no one will come to the door to propose marriage for a while. ”
Xiangxiang felt that how could he make Mr. worry about her in everything, and everything and every sentence was explained so clearly, she felt that if Juan Er was beaten, Mr. may not be like this, and it was because of her awkward relationship with Qianyou that she was particularly concerned. It is not so much that Mr. cares about himself, but that he protects her relationship with Qi Hui, and takes care of the injured Miss Pang, who seems to care very much.
Xiangxiang secretly looked at Mr. carefully, she always thought that "My Fair Lady and Gentleman" was a romantic saying, and recently I learned that it was from the "Book of Songs", and at this moment I felt that it was very appropriate to use this sentence to describe Mr. Shen's appearance, so she was twenty years old and did not marry, and it was indeed strange to come all the way to the capital to be a female gentleman.
"Second Highness, is it very angry? I see that the third prince is very nervous, and I hope it will not affect their brotherhood. Shen Yan helped Xiangxiang to lie down and rest, covering her with a quilt, completely ignoring that she was serving a maid.
And Xiangxiang's answer also surprised her, Xiangxiang said suddenly: "We didn't say anything, we just snuggled up and stayed for most of the night." ”
Shen Yan touched Xiangxiang's cheek like a big sister and praised: "What a good girl, it should be your blessing." ”
At this moment, Qi Hui was already in the East Palace, and the prince agreed with him to travel for ten days, and Qi Hui would replace the prince to inspect the army, starting from garrisoning the capital and several nearby towns, after this time, the next time he may have to go farther away. Qi Hui was seriously looking at the road map and the location of the garrisons everywhere, but the crown prince was on the sidelines, staring at his face.
In the past few days, he has searched openly and secretly, and there is really no trace of Xiangxiang in the palace, and he sent people to the Closed Moon Pavilion, but he did not find anything suspicious. But it is true that as Song Jingshu said, there is a girl named Xiangxiang who often goes to comb the hair of the Oiran, although she has not been there these days, and she appeared not long ago, the prince feels that Xiangxiang must have left the palace a long time ago. It seems that it may have nothing to do with Qi Hui, but a palace maid can disappear from the palace quietly, isn't it because of Qi Hui's help?
Qi Hui raised his head inadvertently, and met the prince's eyes, naturally when he lowered his head, he also felt that the prince was staring at him, he was nothing, but the prince was very embarrassed, and coughed dryly: "Go early and return early, Concubine Xian Niangniang is in the palace, I will send someone to take care of it, you just have to rest assured." ”
Qi Hui didn't make a sound, and the prince said weakly: "If there is anything to do with Concubine Xian, it will be over between us, but I care about your younger brother, second brother, I still say the same thing, if you are willing to be my arm, this country and the world, we will sit together." ”
"Your Highness, as long as there is a commitment between us, it is fine. The world is yours, and I only need a place of comfort and freedom. Qi Hui was indifferent, put away the road map, and turned to leave.
The prince followed to the door, even though it was broad daylight, Qi Hui was still elusive, he felt that Qi Hui's skills were not a problem with one enemy and one hundred, how could he control such a person, if he was really willing to leave here and never come back, it would be his blessing.
But such a thought was just a flash, and the prince immediately showed a cold gaze of the yin owl, he couldn't be merciful, Qi Hui had to get rid of it.
At this time, Qi Hui returned to the cold palace, his mother was not too bad these days, but it never got better, and simply said a few words, saying that he was going to leave the palace to survey the army, and Concubine Xian only asked him to be careful on the road, and then couldn't help asking: "Is Xiangxiang okay?" Have you ever been bullied outside? ”
Qi Hui said that Xiangxiang memorized the entire Analects, Jian Feng's cousin liked her very much and taught her very patiently, Xiangxiang is now studying in the study seriously, she didn't mention that Xiangxiang was beaten by Mrs. Pang in order to help Qianyou, Concubine Xian listened happily and said, "This child, anyone will like her." ”
But Qi Hui couldn't forget the grievances of the person in her arms last night, Concubine Xian noticed that her son was depressed, and thought that she was worried about him about leaving the palace, but instead reassured Qi Hui not to worry too much.
On the same day, Pang Jun saw the emperor in the palace, and after dealing with the dismissal of government affairs, he met Concubine Li in a hidden old place, they are not relatives after all, and it is impossible to go back to see each other in the palace in the bright light, Concubine Li has been waiting impatiently, and when she saw Pang Jun coming leisurely, she split her head and covered her face and said: "When is it, I want to see you now, and I have to urge you three times and ask for four times?" ”
Pang Jun treated him politely and asked, "Is the third highness's injury better?" ”
Concubine Li sneered: "You can think of it, it's no big deal, but next time, I don't know if I can save his life, in the past six or seven years, I have been worried every day, I used to be afraid that the queen would hurt his life, but now the people who came out of nowhere refused to let him go." You say, "How long am I going to wait?" ”
Their original purpose, after overthrowing the prince, killed the emperor, and the queen died smoothly in their hands, but they didn't expect to be able to get close to the prince at once, and the poisoning and assassination were all used, and every time they returned in vain, it proved that there were people around the prince who was secretly protected, and before Concubine Li caught the adulterer, it also proved the emperor's mind, for him, he didn't care who was the emperor, anyway, no one was his son, he only cared if he could enjoy a few more years of wealth and revenge, and then take revenge on this world.
Naturally, Pang Jun will not explain these things to Concubine Li, Concubine Li is very stupid, and she will not understand if she says it.
At this moment, Concubine Li raised her chin high, her arrogant tone, her sharp voice, and her mean words: "If a huge person has two hearts, and I can't save the situation as a woman, then it's a big deal, and I will tell the emperor that he can't give birth to children, and my son is a bad seed." ”
At the beginning, Concubine Li couldn't give birth, and she didn't have the courage to steal seeds, and at the instigation of Pang Jun, she secretly married the guards she didn't know, and now the guards don't know whether they are alive or dead, but the third prince has grown up. At present, Concubine Li is using this as a threat, and even threatened: "I will say that the third prince is the seed of your Pang family." ”
Pang Jun smiled coldly: "It's useless for Niangniang to threaten the minister, your impatience will only make things worse and worse, the prince has been keeping his head in obscurity, and now he caught us off guard." The old minister advises you to stay in the palace with peace of mind, and protect the three highnesses with peace of mind, there is still a good show to watch at the moment, you and I can sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”
"The profit of a fisherman?" Concubine Li was puzzled, "Who is the prince fighting with, and the emperor?" ”
But there was a stirring in her heart, and her heart was shocked, and what about the evil seed in the cold palace, she smiled hideously: "Isn't that little beast a fool?" I haven't seen him in years. ”
