Chapter 11: The Gift

The attendants of Changming Palace are serving with twelve points of spirit every day, and everyone can detect His Majesty's violence these days.

It's like a tight string, tense day by day, and I don't know when the string breaks.

It's been more than ten days, and the suppressed cold swelling of the forest has filled the entire hall, snatching people's breath.

When the hall was empty, Qi Yan looked at the person lying on the bed, and it was difficult to see the emotion in his heavy eyes.

In the middle of the day he got up and walked to the bed, her face still pale and her lips bloodless.

Lying quietly does not look like a living person if it were not for the slight rise and fall of the chest.

He reached out and rubbed his thumb against her slightly cool little face, from soft to hard. Her fingertips were hot, and her delicate face flushed red.

The lying man was still unconscious, he leaned over and bit her lip, holding her face with one hand and lifting it up, as if he was plundering wildly, invading inch by inch.

Blood rippled between his lips and teeth, and he stopped to rough wipe the blood from her lips.

"Jiaojiao, you can't treat me like this, you can't treat me like this!"

His suppressed low roar came out, and Gao Gongde paused violently outside the door, looking at He Shuming inquiringly.

He Shuming glanced through the crack in the door, waved his hand, and motioned to put the food box at the door.

In just ten days, he saw clearly what they didn't see clearly.

Maybe it's really a bystander, and the authorities are confused.

What resentment, what revenge, what is dead, if this little princess doesn't wake up, Your Majesty will really go crazy.

No one persuaded him, and it was fine at first.

Now there are more than half of the imperial doctors in the palace, and the limit is three days, and a group of people will die every three days.

He really couldn't persuade him.

I just hope that the little princess will wake up soon.

*

Chen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, but there was a blank space in front of her, like snow and fog.

She tried hard to see clearly, but the chill enveloped her, making her unconscious, and she suddenly returned to that year and fell into Tingxue Lake.

It's the same cold in the heart, but the body will be hot after that, and that feeling is weird.

It snowed at the beginning of the year, and she couldn't wait to play on the ice just after a day of freezing outside.

She remembered that she forcibly dragged him, and he clearly warned that the ice was unstable and unsafe, but she didn't listen and forced him to play Keju on the ice with him.

It didn't take a few steps for the ice to crack, clattering to the soles of her feet from a distance, and before she could react, she fell into the lake.

She didn't even have time to scream when the icy water overflowed her head, she could only feel him hugging her waist with one hand and pushing her to the surface.

She couldn't lift her trembling hands, and for the first time he was so harsh that he told her to climb on the ice and then lie down.

While crying, she was lifted up by his waist, and sat obediently on the fragile ice, but she couldn't find him when she turned around.

"Ah Wu!"

It took a long time for him to resurface, and she knelt on the ice and reached out to pull him. He was exhausted, and it was hard to breathe.

He asked her to go back and call someone first, don't sit and freeze, it's useless.

But I heard that the snow lake was very remote, and the two were in the middle of the lake again, and they didn't know how long it would take to go back and forth, and she didn't know how long he could hold on.

She remembered crying like crazy, shivering with cold and shivering with cry.

I didn't want to leave him, but I didn't have a choice. I grabbed his wrists with both hands, and tried several times but couldn't pull him up.

So, she jumped again.

The two of them hugged each other, maybe it would be warmer.

At that time, she was only 13 years old, and she had no other complicated thoughts, just fear.

I'm afraid that he will really die, I'm afraid that I'll never see him again, I'm afraid that it's too late when I come back.

He gritted his teeth and scolded her for being stupid, but hugged her tightly.

"If you dare to murder this palace, you will be punished, you will be punished for going back and picking beans!"

She couldn't remember how she got there, how she survived. When I woke up again, I was already in the warm temple, and the winter had passed, and the weather was getting warmer.

It was almost summer when I saw him again.

No one spoke of it again, but the queen mother never allowed her to take only one person out.

After that, she was always surrounded by a large group of people who were waiting, and he hid in the crowd, and she was no longer only protected by him.

"Ah....... None, none! ”

Chen Jiaojiao opened her eyes violently, covering her heart and gasping for breath. This time she looked around and the people sitting next to the bed.

"Your Majesty........?"

Her lips squirmed, her throat hoarse and speechless.

"Want to die? I satisfy you. ”

Qi Yan hid the emotion in his eyes, grabbed her neck, lifted her and hit the bed screen.

Chen Jiaojiao's ears rang with a bang, and she didn't have any strength in her body just after waking up, so she subconsciously held his wrist and couldn't struggle.

His dark eyes were as heavy as the setting sun, as if they were burning her with fire.

His hand gradually strengthened, and it was difficult to breathe, and Chen Jiaojiao's tears fell big drops, smashing on Qi Yan's hand with temperature.

"Your Majesty! Think twice, the princess has just woken up, and her body has not yet recovered! ”

"Your Majesty."

Kneeling down in the hall, Qi Yan didn't take his eyes off for half a minute, staring at the person in front of him, "Who allowed you to call her princess, get out." ”

He Shuming wanted to take a step forward and say something to ease up, but he stopped knowingly and waved everyone down.

When the door was closed, he shook his head helplessly, neither unspeakable nor unrecognizable.

The soft closing of the door was heard, and all that was left in the hall was her sobs and the sound of his breathing.

After a while, Qi Yan spoke, "If you want to burn yourself, this fire is too small, I will teach you." ”

As he spoke, he let go of his hand and kicked down the lampstand, and the candle fell on the book and ignited the flame.

With a blank face, he threw all the books on the shelves into the fire, and the fire grew bigger and louder, and it was noisy outside.

Chen Jiaojiao didn't have time to catch her breath, so she hurriedly ran out of bed barefoot, grabbing his arm regardless of it, "Your Majesty, don't throw it away." Your Majesty! ”

Qi Yan pushed her shoulder away and dropped the lamp again, and the firelight shone on his indifferent side face looking particularly gloomy and terrifying.

After lying on her legs and feet for many days, Chen Jiaojiao suddenly fell to the ground, and hurriedly got up and grabbed his sleeve to prevent him from throwing the book into the fire.

Qi Yan shook off her hand again, but retracted his strength.

"Your Majesty, don't do this."

Chen Jiaojiao couldn't stop it, and saw the fire burning from the table to the ground. She hurriedly ran to the door and looked at He Shuming pleadingly like a savior, "General He, Your Majesty ......."

He Shuming had already asked someone to wait outside, and when he saw this, he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly came in to extinguish the fire.

When he passed by Chen Jiaojiao's side, he raised his elbow and pushed it into the arms of the person standing there.

Hug one, don't go crazy, who can stand this.

Chen Jiaojiao staggered forward, and indeed hugged Qi Yan's waist steadily.

In his arms, she raised her head to meet his lowered eyes, and wanted to withdraw her hand in fear, but he picked it up and threw it on the bed.

He didn't care about her anymore, and watched coldly as the people who came and went cleaned up the mess and stood with his hands in his hands.

Chen Jiaojiao looked at his back and thought about it, then crawled to the side of the bed and knelt down and sat up, "Your Majesty, I don't want to die. It's a bit cold, so I want to keep warm. ”

She knew it was a stupid idea, but she had been awakened by freezing for days, thinking that it would be nice to warm up for a while if she lit a fire, but she didn't expect that she would fall asleep like this.

Qi Yan lowered her eyes, her big eyes were filled with tears, and she explained sincerely and seriously, and her little face was still a little pale.

He raised his hand and grabbed her hand, which was no longer as cold as it had been a few days ago.

In the end, he closed his eyes, "I said that I would give you a gift, and I asked them to show you tomorrow." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left, and Chen Jiaojiao shrank back into a ball and sat on the bed.

His voice sounded calm for a long time, and she was relieved.

In a daze, I did hear him say that he was going to give her a gift, but I didn't know if it was serious.

As soon as she woke up, there was a fuss, Chen Jiaojiao was a little dizzy, but she could still tell that she was in his Changming Palace and slept on his dragon bed.

Wait until the hall is cleaned up and quiet again.

She carefully wrapped her clothes, walked to the door and said to Gao Gongde, who was waiting outside, "Grandpa Gao, can I go back now?" ”

Gao Gongde smiled and lowered his head and didn't look at her, "Your Majesty said that your body has not healed, please rest here." ”

Chen Jiaojiao frowned blankly, "This, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." ”

"There's nothing wrong with it, this is Your Majesty's will, you can rest for a good life."

Although he was respectful and polite, there was no doubt, Chen Jiaojiao nodded reluctantly and returned inside.

But she didn't dare to sit on his dragon bed when she was awake, so she sat on the chair to the side and looked at the pattern of the cups on the table in a daze.

"Princess Wenning."

Chen Jiaojiao was stunned and looked at He Changshu at the door with a smile, "General He, don't call me that, just call me Jiaojiao." ”

"Maybe I'll call Niangniang next time," He Shuming walked in and sat down opposite her, "Are you feeling better?" ”

"Well, thank you for your concern."

"Don't thank me, it was fifteen who saved you that night."

Chen Jiaojiao sighed twice and nodded, "I'll thank you when I have time." ”

"It's not important, just thank you, Your Majesty."

He didn't say three words, but Chen Jiaojiao didn't dare to treat the person in front of her casually, and pursing her lips was the biggest response.

He Shuming looked her up and down when he raised his hand to drink water, and laughed again after putting it down, "Your Majesty is just a little scary in words, but I'm actually quite worried about you." It's been more than ten days, so it's time to say thank you to him. ”

"Yes........ Yes. ”

"Let's go, I'll give you the gift. I thought you should want to see it tonight. ”
