Chapter 35: Confession
Chu Qingchen turned his back to Nuoya, stood with his hands in his hands, and indifferently instructed the imperial doctor: "Go back and send it over after the medicine is ready, remember what I said." ”
The imperial physician respectfully bowed his hand and said, "Second Prince, are you sure you want to remove all the ingredients of the medicinal materials that soothe the brain and remove stasis?" She is already showing signs of getting better. ”
Chu Qingchen nodded with great certainty: "Yes, remove them all, and in the future, she will not be allowed to add a single star of those medicinal materials to all her medicines." ”
The Imperial Physician took three steps back respectfully, then turned and left.
Chu Qingchen sighed, turned around, and saw Nuoya standing behind him, a trace of unnatural panic flashed in his eyes, and he instantly covered it up.
"Why did you get out of bed? Your injuries are so bad, you can't rest well? He couldn't help but blame, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
"I just walked around, and when I saw the beautiful scenery here, I couldn't help but come over." Noah quietly raised her arm and straightened her hair, avoiding his outstretched hand.
"How's your injury?" Chu Qingchen dusted off the dust on his cuffs.
"It's uncomfortable."
"What's the discomfort?" He asked with concern.
"It's uncomfortable."
"You, scare me." He smiled helplessly.
"I'm just telling the truth, the wound doesn't hurt much, it's just that I can only lie on my stomach, and my chest is tight and it's hard to digest."
"Next time there is such a situation, I must not be able to do it, I would rather hurt on my body than in my heart."
"Then you should be careful in the future, don't give others a chance to take advantage of, and don't give me such a chance again, right?" Noah also joked.
"It seems that I am lucky that in Noah's heart, my position can surpass yours." The corners of Chu Qingchen's lips curled slightly, and he was extremely pleased.
Noah raised her face and squinted her eyes to look at Chu Qingchen, she was looking at the sun, and she looked a little dazzling.
"Don't get me wrong, second prince, I'm just repaying your affection." Noah said indifferently, with obvious detachment.
Chu Qingchen was stunned for a moment, and heard the coldness in her words: "Some favors and favors can be repaid, these can be measured by things, but feelings can't be repaid at all." ”
"Then I'll make an IOU and owe it, and the bones will not be finished if the bones are broken." Noah put her hands on her waist, feeling that the sun was too dazzling, and she was a little dizzy when she stood up.
Chu Qingchen saw that she was standing hard, took a handkerchief and spread it on the nearby flower platform, and helped her to sit down and rest slowly.
All kinds of flowers on the flower platform compete with each other, bloom in purple and red, and the plain and leisurely bamboo garden is completely different, one is the noisy city of the world that has caused the hustle and bustle of the world, and the other is the fairy garden that escapes the world.
"Here and the bamboo garden are two worlds, I feel that you are also like Chu Qingchen in the bamboo garden."
Chu Qingchen looked around, his face was inexplicable: "This is my mansion, the guards inside are slightly better, and the subordinates are also attentive, wait for you to heal your injuries, if you don't like here, we will go back to Zhuyuan." ”
Noah didn't care at all: "For me, it's the same everywhere. ”
"Well," Chu Qingchen said kindly, with a little sadness in his eyes: "I didn't have my own mansion before I was sixteen years old, so I lived in the bamboo garden, and I lived with the hunchback and a few guards. Later, my father rewarded me with this house, but I may be a person who is used to being pure, and I always feel a little noisy living here, so in the days in the capital, I often go back to Zhuyuan to live for a few days to cultivate my self-cultivation. ”
Noah remembered the little girls in his yard, who had been undisciplined and had no rules for a long time, and he must have been attentive and attentive when he saw him, and it was strange that he was not noisy. In comparison, the bamboo garden is more comfortable, especially for him who is light and wealthy, and the fight for this house may just be to affirm his efforts.
An unfavored prince, so shabby that he doesn't even have a mansion, lives in his mother's old mansion, and lives with an old slave, Noah feels sad for him when he thinks about it. This kind of situation is something that no one who has ever experienced the coldness of the world and the warmth of human affection cannot understand.
Xin'er kept saying that Mrs. Hui was favored in front of the old emperor, is this how the old emperor treats himself and the flesh and blood of his beloved woman? If it weren't for Chu Qingchen's indignation, his indignation, his indomitability, and his ability to shine in Dachu, wouldn't the emperor continue to ignore him?
"According to the temperament of the second prince, living in an alley is as accessible as the downtown area, and it will not be affected by environmental changes."
Chu Qingchen smiled self-deprecatingly, "You think too highly of me, I also eat grains, and I inevitably have mundane thoughts." ”
"Childe is like a jade cloth that wins the snow, and the warm Hua Hao Sai Qiuyue, I originally thought you were an otherworldly person."
"And now?"
Nuoya laughed dryly: "As far as I am concerned, you are only the second prince of Great Chu now, not Chu Qingchen." ”
Chu Qingchen couldn't help but be stunned: "What do you mean?" ”
"You've always wanted me to be able to regain my old memories, haven't you? I found so many doctors to see me, and asked Jinniang to hypnotize me twice, what is it for? ”
Chu Qingchen was silent for a long time, not knowing how to speak.
"What are you trying to find out from my memory?"
Chu Qingchen pursed his lips: "Find out why the prince has to put you to death." ”
"And then?"
Chu Qingchen was speechless.
"Do you want to know who ordered me to assassinate the prince? Or do you guess that the prince is chasing me because I may know some deadly trick from him? And you, selfish, want to know, right? ”
Noah's tone was flat, as if she was telling something that had nothing to do with her, but her eyes betrayed her heart, full of bitterness.
"Noah, I admit that I did have selfish intentions in the past and wanted you to recover your memory. But now I regret it, Noah, and I will never do anything to hurt you in the future. Chu Qingchen didn't answer Nuoya's question directly, and avoided the important and said lightly.
Noya shook her head and smiled slightly, "You don't need to promise me anything at all, Second Prince." Why I chose to stay with you and not return to the General's Mansion, in fact, you know it yourself, but all along, you are just deceiving yourself. ”
"Lotus seeds are bitter in their hearts, no matter what you say or do, you must have your own bitterness." Chu Qingchen smiled bitterly, and the flames in his eyes suddenly dimmed.
"The green bamboo in the bamboo garden is dead, you should think that I poisoned the lotus seed porridge yesterday."
The only remaining light in Chu Qingchen's eyes went out, and he completely fell into cold silence, pursing his lips and not speaking.
"I used to be jealous, so I didn't dare to be honest with you. I was arrested the other day by the Killers' Pavilion, who threatened me with the antidote to boning incense and the safety of a friend who was so affectionate to me, that I should take your life within three days. I hesitated a few times, and I had many chances to start, but I gave up. I don't want to kill you, and I'm afraid that the people in the Killer Pavilion will be unfavorable to you, so I chose to stay in Zhuyuan, which has nothing to do with others, and I have never forgotten Ah Jiu.
Yesterday I accidentally saw the mark left by the dwarf killer on the acacia tree at the gate of the bamboo garden, I vaguely remember that it seems that there is such a number one person in the killer pavilion, nicknamed 'Tuxing Sun', no matter where he goes in and out, he has such a habit, that is, he compares his height to leave a nick, hoping that his height can one day surpass that mark. I had a vague premonition at that time, so I went to the household to save you, which is why I did not know the prophet. ”
"Even if so? Noya, at the last moment, you forgot about life and death, and you didn't choose me, which means that in your own subconscious, you still feel that I am important and can surpass everything! Chu Qingchen was unprecedentedly stubborn.
"Second prince, I admire your talent and respect your character, and even for a while, I was wronged by Bailijiu, and I had wavers in my heart, and I had thoughts of one kind or another. But you are too perfect in my heart, a god-like existence, I have always looked up to you, and I never thought that one day I would become the woman who will spend my life with you.
What is shown in front of you is never the real Lin Nuoya, but in disguise. The real me, just like Bailijiu said rude, savage, stubborn, unreasonable, and full of one kind or another. That's not what you like to look like, either. ”
Noah didn't dare to speak loudly, and as soon as she opened her mouth and moved, the wound on her back hurt as if it were torn again. So softly, but with unquestionable firmness.
"However, you also have to know, Noya, what is like, like is love and love, even if you are vulgar and unreasonable, in my eyes, it is also a different advantage."
Noah wanted to tell him that he was right, and in these days, she thought about it repeatedly, only to find that the original Baili Jiu's hanging child, faceless and skinless, was the most precious memory in her heart, and these shortcomings that seemed extremely disgusting to others also became the greatest joy in her heart.
It turned out that I had always liked him so much, I liked him so much that I couldn't control it, and it overflowed my heart full.
Before the words could be spoken, Feng Chi hurried over, standing a few feet away from the two of them, a little anxious.
"What's wrong?" Chu Tianchen turned around and asked unhappily in the face of Feng Chi,
Feng Chi only then walked closer, and bowed his hand to Chu Tianchen with a solemn face and whispered: "Come to the palace to tell you to enter the palace quickly!" ”
Chu Tianchen didn't say anything when he heard this, neither nodded nor shook his head, his eyes looked at the roof in the distance, as if he was thinking about something.
"Master?" Feng Chi couldn't help but anxiously urge: "The eunuch is still waiting outside, so that you must not disobey, I heard that the emperor was furious." ”
Chu Tianchen turned his head, stared at Nuoya scorchingly, stared at her face for a long time, and then slowly spoke: "Don't wait for me to come back, Nuoya." ”
