It was already evening when the old man was sent away, and a few small lights were lit in the courtyard, shining brightly and dimly.

Perhaps because of autumn, the sky is getting darker and earlier, and from time to time there will be wind and rain, stirring the bowl lotus planted outside the door, and the coolness will enter the human body.

I sat on the edge of the bed, Beiyu Jinchen closed his eyes and fell asleep, his eyelashes were slightly closed, casting a small shallow shadow under his eyes, he had always been quiet, but at this time he was even more silent.

In a trance, he remembered the Gu worm on his body, and he was curious, so he carefully untied his clothes, and the layers of gauze at the mouth of his heart covered the injury, and there were dots of blood oozing out, like a red plum quietly blooming in the cold winter.

A light in the room was like a bean, and the yellow candle light shone on his well-textured upper body, although I had already seen each other frankly, I still couldn't help but feel embarrassed, so I had to don't turn my head and put my hand on the other side of his chest, this method can clearly feel the traces of Gu worm's action.

For a while, there was no movement, so I had no choice but to stop.

Putting his hand up, his right hand was already gripping my wrist, unable to move for a moment, he stared at me with his eyes open, and the scorching heat passed through his body and went straight to the palm of his hand.

It turned out that this person had been pretending to be asleep, so I forcibly suppressed the anger and emotions in my heart and asked him, "Awake?" ”

He tilted his head to the side, and a few strands of inky green silk slid down the pillow and scattered in the neck socket, making his pale face vivid again. "The doctor said, "People who are pregnant...... I can't have intercourse, not to mention that I'm powerless at this time. ”

The words were full of banter, and the lightly raised eyebrows could not hide the smug mood of victory.

I'm so angry that I almost have a knife in my hand, and I will definitely be able to stab it again without hesitation. "You let go, I'm going back to the house to rest."

He took my hand and did not let go, but held it tighter, and pressed his hand to the wound covered with silk veil, I was startled, and did not dare to move, for fear that the wound would be crushed and I would have to ask the old man to revisit, I had been scolded miserably today, and I didn't want to listen to the nagging a second time.

Through the gauze, the touch of his heartbeat was transmitted from his heart to his limbs, and although it was not as strong as before, it still made me feel a special throbbing.

The troubles of the world, going around and around, fate still binds us together, and in this way of hurting each other, no one can escape.

"Don't go." His lips were dyed with a gentle arc, and his voice was low and slurred, mixed with some hoarseness suppressed by pain. "Stay with me."

I re-tied his clothes and lightly covered him with a thin quilt. "Tell me, how can you have Gu worms on you?"

Ask the doubts in your heart, even if you have a hunch that he will not tell me the truth.

Sure enough, he pretended to be dazed again. "I don't remember."

He always said he couldn't remember, and he didn't know if he was running away from something or if he really had something else hidden.

Turning his gaze away, the small irises in the room towered and shadowed in the corner of the window.

On the side is a silver smoker, which releases the special fragrance of hibiscus water agarwood, if there is nothing, sometimes near and sometimes far.

Smelling this smell, my mind gradually calmed down, and the tumbling in my stomach finally stopped for a while.

When I retracted my gaze, I found that he was looking at me quietly, his gaze as calm as water, and the pupils of deep ink seemed to ripple in circles.

"I'm looking forward to this child, it's like another light in my life." He put his hand on my lower abdomen, contemplating what he was feeling.

"Jin'er, do you want to be a boy or a girl?"

He asked matter-of-factly, the corners of his lips still maintaining that gentle curvature.

In fact, I don't like children, whether it is the murder of my mother and two deaths, or the death of a snowy childbirth, it has left an indescribable shadow on my heart.

If you say which child you like, it is estimated that only Xingchen, the little apprentice who looks at the little princess of Yuejiu and the Qingzhu Sage, is still more pleasing.

It's just that sometimes people are manipulated by instinct, and this little life in my body is like my weakness, always subconsciously trying to protect him.

"I don't care about that, I just want you to remember your promise." I took his hand back and sat farther away, deliberately keeping my distance.

He didn't continue to ask, but said, "I'll go in a few days when my injuries are better." After that, he pointed to my brow and said, "Don't wrinkle, I will do my best to keep him safe." ”

Xu said too much, coughed up some blood intermittently, I asked him to stop talking, fed warm water, and then fell asleep.

When he was asleep, I rubbed my numb legs and walked out of the house.

It was late at night outside, and a few green bamboos in the small courtyard were rustled by the wind, and the bamboo leaves were shaking, hidden at the junction of light and darkness, and it was not real. After walking a few steps, I came to a wide place, and when I raised my eyes, I could see a crescent moon like a hook, and the cool and white afterglow fell on the back of my hand, like a layer of agar paste.

What worries me the most is that I am afraid that the ten spices in my body will endanger the child. I obviously don't want to care, but if I invest too much emotion, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to be alone when I leave. But I still can't help it......

Folded off a section of bamboo branch and struck sideways, the tip of the branch drawing a sharp arc in the air.

I haven't practiced martial arts for a long time, and I'm a lot unfamiliar, but fortunately, I still have the foundation.

Just as I was about to move on to the next movement, my lower abdomen twitched, and there was a slight pain, as if to protest against my movements at this moment.

In desperation, I had to give up and go back to the dormitory to rest first.

Childishly threw the bamboo branch out in his hand, never expecting to hit the tip of the red sleeve's toe.

She moved her steps, stepping on the moonlight, light orange collared shirt, gentle and lovely. With the chicken soup in his hand, the fragrance came from afar.

When I first saw her, I felt like a teenage girl, but later I found that she was more sophisticated in both voice and behavior, and she should be in her twenties, but it was only because of her immature face that people misunderstood age.

When she saw me, she walked over with a cup of black chicken and wolfberry soup in her hand, white and greasy, and fragrant.

I also walked up to her and kindly told her, "He's asleep now." ”

She smiled and handed the cup to me. "This is not for the prince, it is for Miss Jin, your body is heavy, make up for your body."

After all, after the previous toss, I really felt hungry, and I almost screamed in my stomach.

The red sleeves led me to sit down on a square stone chair in the small courtyard, with the towering locust trees above my head, and the moonlight slanted on the scattered leaves, and the hazy light and shadow fell on my face.

The spoon stirred gently, and a few bright red wolfberries floated on the top, sweet and slightly salty.

"There's something Redsleeves wants to tell the girl." She brushed the broken hair on her forehead unnaturally, as if she had made up her mind, and let out a long breath.

I just cared about drinking soup, and it was rare that I didn't have a nausea, so I ate more while I had the time.

"In fact, the prince has been spurned and suffered a lot since he was a child." Her voice was faint, emanating from the night.

I stopped drinking the soup and thought secretly, it is said that Beiyu Jinchen is the most favored prince of the first emperor, since she was a child, how did she become this statement from her mouth?

She continued: "When he was five years old, he was sent to Liangxi as a proton and spent two years in the dark. The year he went to Liangxi happened to be the year that you, Emperor Dexin, were born. ”

A mouthful of soup choked into his throat, and he couldn't stop coughing, affecting his heart and lungs, and he finally managed to suppress it.

Red Sleeves glanced at him lightly and said, "Look at him, he is always smiling, do you know why?" Because whether it is Liangxi or Beiyan, no one likes him. In Beiyan, the first emperor made everyone mistakenly think that the prince was the prince, in fact, he hated this child very much, but only in this way would all the dark arrows and bright arrows come at the prince alone, and the real prince can live safely. Liangxi is even worse, because it is a proton, the palace people do their best to abuse him, he can only smile to make the other party feel that he is not a threat and reduce the damage, and over time, it has become a habit. In those two years, he slept in the sheepfold, ate leftovers, and gasped, you should know that his thumb was broken, and the white jade wrench was to cover up the scars, but what you didn't know was that his fingers were broken because of you. ”

"Impossible!" In the excitement, she spilled the soup with her sleeves, and the oil stains splashed on her face. "You lie so much, and your words are ridiculous! First of all, there has never been a record in the history books that Beiyan sent a proton, and secondly, even if he is a proton, I was only more than a year old when Liangxi destroyed the country, so there could be no intersection! ”

Redsleeves also stood up, staring at me tightly, my flustered figure reflected in his eyes.

"Do you believe in history books? What country in history would not deliberately hide the truth in order to cover up its own filth? As for the scars on his hands, ask him how they were broken. By the way, there is one more thing, his mother concubine is from Liangxi, and she also died in the homeland of Liangxi, and the murderer is your amiable and respectable second elder, the leader of the Liangxi Forbidden Army. ”

"Who the hell are you, and why do you know so much......" I couldn't stand back, my back against the trunk of the tree.

It's a mess in my head, and it can explode anytime and anywhere.

She turned her back and slowly walked away, her voice was very soft: "Red Sleeve is a member of the Yao tribe on Liangxi Road, Chinese New Year's Eve is seventy-seven years old this year, and he is of the same clan as Emperor Ji. ”

Lu Yao...... is of the same clan as Queen Liangxi, which means that she knows my mother Chongzi? The Lu Yao clan does have a rejuvenation technique, but only a few people know about it, how can she ......

I didn't dare to think about it, fear was wrapped around my heart, I clung to my throat, opened my mouth, and couldn't say anything except the cold wind whirling down.
