Chapter Seventy-Three: How dare they?
On the second day, Xu Yuan woke up and apparently forgot what had happened yesterday.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Gong Que lying on the side of the bed, the man was already asleep, and he tightened his eyebrows, looking like he should be haunted by an unknown nightmare.
Xu Yuan carried Gong Que to the bed very carefully and carefully, and before she could withdraw her hand, Gong Que's eyes opened suddenly.
Gong Que: "......"
Xu Yuan: "......"
The two of them looked at each other with big eyes, and the atmosphere was not ordinary awkward.
"I'm going to cook." Gong Que rubbed his hair that was a little messy, and got up, only to feel that it was suddenly dark in front of him.
The cold wind blew for so long yesterday, it's no wonder if you don't catch a cold, but ...... It should be a cold, no fever.
It's lucky.
"Ahh Gong Que covered his nose with his little white hand, and didn't forget to say the last sentence at the end, "I'm sorry." ”
While Gong Que took out his handkerchief, Xu Yuan picked up a strand of hair that was scattered behind Gong Que, twisted it carefully, and said to her: "It's late, the bun is messy." ”
"Huh?" Gong Que's mind was not very bright at this time, and it took two turns before he reacted, "Oh." ”
Xu Yuan suddenly laughed, blinked his eyes, and said to her with a smart face: "Mother comb your hair for a long time!" ”
Gong Que: Don't, don't, don't!
On weekdays, she does these things alone, and she is used to doing them alone, but now she is not used to someone taking over her.
But where did Xu Yuan take care of these?
I saw that she went to the dresser to get a comb barefoot without taking care of her clothes, sat back on the bed, and combed it seriously with the green silk of the palace.
It's like a child who does his homework seriously.
Gong Que sighed silently in his heart with some helplessness: It's good if you're happy.
But......
Gong Que turned his head sideways, looked at Xu Yuan's childlike happy expression, and couldn't help but worry about another thing-
New Year's Banquet.
She didn't want to go to this kind of banquet with a lot of people.
And I heard that according to the rules of Xuanyue Kingdom, there will be ministers with their wives and daughters that day.
Gong Que began to palpitate when she thought that there would be so many people, and she didn't want to be stuck in the crowd at all, smiling and flattering and saying polite words.
Besides, when the time comes, Xu Yuan's appearance also worries her.
However, she had to seize this opportunity to let others recognize her, recognize Yongxu Palace, and fight for the future of the people here.
In the past, she didn't need to come forward no matter what.
In everything, she only needs to unify the overall situation behind the back of the six royal families, and now ......
At this time, it was clearly the palace of the year of the hanging bun, but there was a fatigue on his face that did not match his age.
"Princess? Princess? "Someone outside the door is looking for her, and it should be urgent to listen to the voice.
Gong Que got up in a hurry, clearly forgetting that his hair was still in Xu Yuan's hands, and with such force, there were obviously a few green strands left on the wooden comb.
"Sss
The scalp hurt a little, Gong Que rubbed the part where the hair was pulled out, turned around and patted Xu Yuan's hand gently to comfort her, and then turned around and went out.
With the sound of the door, as soon as Xia Zhu turned around, he saw Gong Que standing not far away.
"Princess, this is a letter from a man in black just now, and he also said that if you don't give it to you quickly, your life will be in danger."
Xia Zhu said with tears in his eyes, as if he believed what the man said, for fear that something would happen to his princess.
"Danger to life?" Gong Que opened the envelope suspiciously, only to see that the letter said "New Year's Banquet, be careful".
Just four words, she recognized whose font it was at a glance.
I saw Gong Que calmly put the letter back into the envelope, and his voice was cold: "What does the person who sent the letter look like?" ”
"I don't know." Xia Zhu shook his head, but added, "He can't see his face clearly with a hat, but he is tall and strong, his demeanor is rude, and his voice is a little hoarse, and he doesn't look like a person in the palace." ”
Gong Que knew in his heart: Who else could such a character be besides Mo Rin?
"Okay, I got it." Gong Que tucked the letter into his sleeve and smiled faintly, "It's just something to scare people, don't take it seriously, I'll be fine." ”
Hearing Gong Que's words, Xia Zhu's hanging heart suddenly put down, and she nodded hurriedly: "Mmmm! Our princess is sure that the auspicious people have their own celestial phenomena, and every evil turns into good fortune. ”
When the former heard this, he just lowered his eyes and smiled: "Don't worry, my father will protect him!" ”
"Uh-huh!" Xia Zhu sniffed, "The emperor loves our princess the most, and he will definitely protect the princess." ”
"Yes, yes." After Gong Que finished speaking, he pointed to Xu Yuan, who was waiting for her behind the door, "Then Xia Zhu, I'll go first, it's okay, it's okay, don't worry about me." ”
She just needed to go to Su Jingyu later.
Back in the house, Xu Yuan sat on the bed obediently, swaying his legs, and picking up the hair between his combs one by one.
Seeing Gong Que's shadow, she immediately raised her head, with a little doubt on her face: "Chi Chi, what's wrong?" ”
"Nothing." Gong Que took out some sugar cakes from Wanbao and gave them to her.
Fu picked up Xu Yuan's shoes on the side, turned to her, felt that her feet were too cold, rubbed her feet through Luo socks, and helped her put on her shoes.
Xu Yuan was so happy when he saw the sugar cake, he took a bite, his cheeks bulged, like a puffed frog.
Seeing her like this, Gong Que just smiled and went to the side to clean his hands, and immediately sat next to her and patted her on the back, wiped the residue from the corner of her mouth, and said in a gentle and careful voice: "Be careful of choking." ”
The man looked at her with a smile, his eyes bent into crescents, and handed her one, and said vaguely: "Eat it later, sweet!" ”
Looking at the man's eager gaze that he was about to rub out the spark, Gong Que couldn't refuse for a while, so he could only tuck his hair behind his ears, lean over and bite it gently-
"It's sweet."
Looking at the man's childlike smile, Gong Que raised his hand to brush her hair, and said softly: "Wait a minute, I'll go out, and I'll bring you something delicious when I come back, okay?" ”
Xu Yuan's movements were sudden, and the smile gradually faded from his face.
Gong Que saw the man pulling a corner of him, and asked timidly, "Can you come back sooner later?" ”
"Okay." She smiled slightly, "I'll be back soon." ”
Hearing her assurance, Xu Yuan nodded slowly, and the hand that grabbed the corner of Gong Que's clothes was also placed on his lap: "The concubine will come back later." ”
Gong Que smiled lightly: "Okay." ”
……
For some reason, the gate of Ningchiin Temple was open today.
Gong Que carefully carried the hem of his skirt up the stairs, but saw that the courtyard was in ruins, and even the ceramic jar that Yuan Shu had always used to cook medicine was lying in the vast snow.
His heart was tight, and Gong Que couldn't care about it so much, so he hurriedly pushed the door in.
In the courtyard, Yuan Shu was not there, and Su Jingyu was lying in the snow, his face purple and blue, almost not the color of a living person.
What's going on?!
Gong Que was shocked, and stepped forward to check, the goose feathers and heavy snow flying in the sky covered him layer by layer, and she used her red and swollen hands to dig him out of the snow little by little.
At first it was ice, then it hurt so badly that she lost sensation in her hand.
With the excavation of the palace little by little, Su Jingyu was finally dug out.
She had been frozen in the snow for too long, her face was pale, her lips were blue, and her whole body was stiff.
Those people, how dare you!!
The anger in his heart stacked, and Gong Que couldn't help but speed up the movements in his hands.
Maybe it was because her movements were too big that she woke up Su Jingyu.
"Cold ...... It's so cold......" he muttered these words over and over again.
Regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, Gong Que carried Su Jingyu on her back, but the difference between the two figures was too great, so she could only carry him and walk back to the room slowly.
"You lie down here, I'll go get some charcoals."
Gong Que turned around and wanted to leave, but somewhere in the corner of his clothes suddenly took the weight.
"Don't go ......"
Su Jingyu's voice was like a gossamer.
Seeing him like this, Gong Que was not at ease, and hurriedly put a pair of weak and boneless little hands on Su Jingyu's cold wrists.
The connection was weak, and the body was cold.
In a hurry, she didn't care about whether men and women were kissed or not, so she quickly untied her cloak, picked up Su Jingyu, who was a head taller than herself, hugged her with her cloak, and covered her body temperature with her body temperature.
Consciousness gradually sobered up, Su Jingyu looked at the anxious little ball in front of him, and his lips pursed out two words: "No need." ”
