350. Bruising
His steps were a little slow, his knees were also slightly painful, and when he walked out of the Chaolong Palace, Chu Qing had already greeted him.
"Lord, how's it going?" Chu Qing saw that his footsteps were a little unsteady, so he hurriedly supported Huo Chen, he knelt for so long, his body must be unbearable.
Huo Chen felt heartache every step he took, he gritted his teeth and said, "My father wants to take the opportunity to separate this king and Qing'er, how can this king be willing." ”
Fortunately, he was also sitting in a sedan chair when he came, and Huo Chen didn't have to work so hard when he went back to Zhuangwangfu.
Huo Chen's appearance, he didn't dare to go to Furong Garden, so he went back to Tonghua Residence.
"Lord Wang, will Wolf Ke really go to war?" Chu Qing was still skeptical, could it be that Princess Xiyao married into Daqi just to delay time?
Huo Chen shook his head, his face solemn: "This king has sent people to investigate the strength of the wolf country, it is really beyond the imagination of this king, if there is a war, it will definitely be a tough battle." ”
"Did the prince ever think that Wolf Ke's request was too sudden." Chu Qing furrowed his eyebrows, and the mystery in his heart gradually increased.
Huo Chen also felt so, although Mu Wanqing was once taken captive by Tong Sudong to the wolf country, but at that time, the wolf Kedu let Mu Wanqing go, and now he is talking again, which is also incomprehensible.
He pursed his lips, feeling that things were really complicated, but if he didn't talk about this, it would take him a lot of thought to refuse Wolf Ke.
"Lord Wang, you have been kneeling for an afternoon, it is better to rest earlier." Chu Qing looked at Huo Chen's pale face, and felt a little unbearable, feeling that Emperor Qi Wen was too ruthless.
Huo Chen also felt tired, after this battle, it was a great luck that he did not suffer from heat stroke, but his physical strength had been almost consumed, and it was difficult for him to support it anymore. His voice was still hoarse: "Don't let her know about this matter for the time being, you can send someone to say that this king will discuss important matters with you tonight." ”
Chu Qing understood Huo Chen's hard work, and he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly retreated.
Huo Chen didn't even have the strength to raise his hand, he asked the maid to take off his shoes, and then rolled up his pants, and when the maid rolled up her pants to her knees, she let out an exclamation.
Huo Chen frowned, he didn't want to hear any noisy sounds anymore.
The maid saw Huo Chen frowning, and was even more frightened, and hurriedly bowed her head and begged for mercy: "The prince spares his life, the slave and maid are not intentional, they just see ......."
She didn't say any more, but she cried.
Huo Chen lowered his head and looked at his knees, which were already iron and blue, and oozing blood, which looked shocking, and his heart was not stunned, if it weren't for his tough attitude today, I'm afraid Emperor Qi Wen would not have seen his life.
"It's okay, just use hot water." Huo Chen was still frowning, but his tone was soft, comforting the maid, but comforting himself.
The maid hurriedly went out to fetch water, and after a while, she came in with a basin of hot water, washed a towel, and put it on Huo Chen's knees.
Huo Chen's knees had a slight feeling, when he knelt, the weight of his whole body was pressed on his knees, and it was normal for his knees to be like this.
The maid changed the towel several times in a row, and the hot water was cold, but there was no improvement, so she said worriedly: "Lord Wang, it's better to find a doctor to take a look, so I don't know when it will be better." ”
Doctor?
Huo Chen's mind suddenly thought of Mu Wanqing.
Her skillful hands can make many good prescriptions, speaking of which, she is also a strange woman, and there is no woman like her in the world today.
But he still shook his head: "Don't get in the way, help the king to go to bed and rest." ”
The maid didn't dare to persuade again, for fear that Huo Chen would be angry after a while, and the slave and maid shouldn't have said much.
She stood up and was thinking about helping Huo Chen to get up, but behind the heavy curtains, a violent voice sounded: "Huo Chen! ”
In the palace, there was only one person who called Huo Chen by his name.
Huo Chen didn't have time to put down her pants, Mu Wanqing had already broken in, she was wearing a water-green gauze dress, her ink-colored hair was splashed on her shoulders, and the two lotus-like arms loomed, if she looked at it again, I was afraid that she would hook Huo Chen's soul.
Looking up again, I saw Mu Wanqing's tightly knit brows.
He remained silent, covering his knees with his robe, begging not to be seen.
But Mu Wanqing had already understood, she took the medicine box, walked over, lifted the robe that covered her knees, and saw the two bruised knees, she only felt that the sky was about to fall.
That's what it's all about.
Her mouth opened slightly, obviously surprised, and beneath her butterfly-winged eyelashes was a puddle of water, and if she blinked her eyes, the crystal tears would fall.
Mu Wanqing's body was also trembling, and the cry could no longer be suppressed.
"What the hell is going on? It's just that after going out for most of the day, it's like this......" Mu Wanqing couldn't say any more, her throat seemed to be blocked by something, and she couldn't make a sound anymore.
"It's just bruising, and it's not a big injury." Huo Chen said lightly.
"You don't want to tell me that?"
Mu Wanqing's burning tears fell, dripping on the back of her hand and on his heart.
Huo Chen was in a dilemma as to how to answer, when he caught a glimpse of Gui Xin who came in, and he had already guessed what was going on.
Gui Xin was not afraid, and said directly: "The prince doesn't need to be angry, the old slave is also worried about the prince's body, so he went to inform the lady." Let Madame take a look, and you will be able to get better soon. ”
Huo Chen's heart was also contradictory, on the one hand, he didn't want Mu Wanqing to worry, but he wanted Mu Wanqing to care about himself.
Now seeing Mu Wanqing so nervous about himself, his heart is slightly sweet, and he just wants to hold her in his arms and kiss her well.
Mu Wanqing had already opened the medicine box, took out a bottle of medicinal oil, poured it into the palm of her hand, and rubbed it for Huo Chen herself.
Her strength was not small, Huo Chen almost screamed in pain, he held back, Mu Wanqing also knew his pain, but he did not reduce his strength.
"There is no skin trauma in the bruises, and they have been moist and hot compressed with a towel, so that they can promote local blood circulation and play a role in removing stasis. The elimination of this stasis is only a matter of time, and it will take about half a month at the earliest. If it's cold and the blood circulation is slow, it's not just that. Mu Wanqing said softly, also very heartbroken.
She didn't know what happened to Huo Chen, but she didn't want to ask, such a knee, I don't know how long it took to kneel before such a bruise, I'm afraid this is also kneeling to Emperor Qi Wen, these political affairs, she is even more reluctant to ask.
The medicinal oil had a slight coolness, and there was a hint of mint flavor, which also alleviated a lot of Huo Chen's pain.
After a long time, Mu Wanqing's hands were sore, and she stopped.
