Chapter Eighty-Nine: Concubine Xian is in charge of the Six Palaces
Guan Ju Palace.
The bitter fragrance of medicine permeated the palace, and the delicate and delicate woman on the sickbed was unconscious, like pale and precious porcelain, which people could not bear to touch, for fear of hurting her.
Xiao Beirin sat on the edge of the bed and personally fed the medicine to Shen Tingcheng's mouth with a spoon: "Concubine Ai, it's time to drink medicine, you can only get better if you drink medicine, be obedient." ”
The sleeping woman couldn't hear him, and pursed her thin lips.
The medicinal juice that Xiao Beirin fed in leaked out of the corners of his mouth.
He carefully wiped the medicinal juice from the corner of Shen Tingcheng's mouth, his eyes were full of distress: "Allure, you are afraid of the bitterness of the medicine, so you refuse to drink it, right?" It's okay, I'll drink with you. ”
He raised his head and drank the bitter medicine, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and he leaned over to put it on Shen Chengcheng's lips.
Xiao Beirin slowly fed the medicinal juice to Shen Qingcheng little by little, and when she swallowed it all, he removed his thin lips and looked at the unconscious woman and smiled bitterly.
"If you're awake, I'm afraid I'm going to blame me for taking advantage of you again, wake up quickly, I miss you very much, ......"
……
Dreams, white dreams.
Shen Qingcheng didn't know where she was, she kept walking forward blankly, and a dilapidated palace suddenly appeared in front of her.
Pushing open the door, she saw a little boy curled up in a corner covered in wounds, eyes closed and eyelids trembling, as if he were in a nightmare.
"Hey, wake up, what's wrong with you......"
Shen Tingcheng was about to step forward and wake up the little boy and ask him why he was here alone.
Suddenly, there was a cacophony outside the door.
Several fat white children dressed in silk and satin swaggered in with their slaves.
The little boy was woken up by them, got up and watched them warily.
"Hungry, huh? Look what I've brought you with all my kindness, meat buns! ”
The fat kid at the head grabbed a meat bun and threw it on the ground, making a teasing sound in his mouth, "You shouldn't have eaten for three days, right?" As long as you kneel down and kowtow to me three times, I will give you this meat bun to eat, how about it? ”
The aroma of the meat buns was rich and attractive, and the hungry little boy sniffed his nose and stared at the meat buns on the ground, Shen Qingcheng was really afraid that he would pick it up and eat it in the next second, but he hesitated.
“…… I don't kowtow. The little boy closed his eyes, and his hoarse voice was full of stubbornness.
The fat boy sank his face and spat on the ground: "I see that you are toasting and not eating and drinking, don't you eat?" Then I won't give you anything to eat if I crush it! ”
He trampled the meat bun to a pulp, and then beckoned to the servant behind him: "I don't like this bastard, you beat me until he begs for mercy!" ”
The servants swarmed up, punching and kicking the little boy's thin body, but he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Shen Qingcheng was angry and anxious, and rushed up to protect the little boy, but his figure passed through the crowd.
She snapped her eyes open, sat up, and muttered breathlessly, "It was just a dream." ”
"Allure, are you awake!?" Xiao Beirin's surprise call came from beside him.
Shen Chengcheng fell into a warm embrace, Xiao Beichen had great strength, and she almost couldn't breathe.
"Allure, it's good if you're awake, I'm really scared."
Shen Tingcheng calmed down, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, my life is big, isn't this not dead?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense about what you can't die or not." Xiao Beichen frowned, and said word by word: "If you die, I will be martyred, so you should be glad that you are alive and well, so as not to let Yan Kingdom fall into a situation where the government has no master." ”
Shen Tingcheng: "......"
She's been asleep for a few hours, isn't she?
The dream before waking up was too real, and Shen Tingcheng still had a lingering cold feeling in the dream, she grabbed Xiao Beichen's warm palm, twisted her eyebrows and said: "Then again, I had a very strange dream just now, I dreamed that in a palace in Yan Kingdom, there was a little boy covered in injuries......"
Shen Chengcheng told Xiao Beichen everything he saw in his dream.
She was angry at the injustice suffered by the little boy in the dream, and she didn't notice Xiao Beichen's gradually stiff and cool expression.
Xiao Beichen pursed his thin lips, and his voice revealed an imperceptible coldness: "Concubine Ai is so dignified, how could she have such a strange dream, it must be caused by poison, be good, don't think about it." ”
He helped Shen Chengcheng to lie down, brushed away the broken hair on the woman's forehead with his long fingers, and said with pity: "Don't you want to know who the person who hurt you is?" ”
Shen Tingcheng raised his head: "Yes, I don't know yet, who is the person who harmed me!?" ”
"Shen Yunqing."
The three words of indifference and coldness came out of Xiao Beichen's mouth, and Shen Qingcheng inexplicably felt a feeling of gritting his teeth.
"Shen Yunqing? It's not her, is it? Shen Qingcheng muttered.
"Everyone knows that she sent me pastries, how can a murderer be so stupid as to poison her pastries and wait to be caught?"
"She's not a smart person either." Xiao Beichen snorted coldly, "When I was arrested, I lied that it was my slave and maid who did it, and after I interrogated it, the slave and maid confessed." ”
Shen Tingcheng didn't want to excuse Shen Yunqing, but she always felt that there was something strange about this matter.
Without waiting for her to finish, Xiao Beichen said lightly: "The country is easy to change, her nature is difficult to change, she has no good intentions towards you, and the reason for trying to kill you can stand, why do you pity her?" ”
Shen Qingcheng pursed the corners of his mouth, and suddenly remembered that he had been misunderstood and abused by Xiao Beichen in his previous life.
At that time, did Xiao Beichen not listen to persuasion as much as now, and stubbornly believed that she Shen Chengcheng was a harmful spirit?
Shen Qingcheng's eyes dimmed a little, and he said softly in disgust: "I'm a little uncomfortable and want to rest." ”
She said that she lay back on the bed, tugging at the quilt without saying a word.
Xiao Beichen noticed that she was a little distracted, and patted the quilt with his big palm, but he didn't say anything.
Could it be that his tone was too heavy and scared her?
Or did she say something she didn't like to hear?
Xiao Beichen was thinking about it, and a picture suddenly crossed his mind.
A pair of teary eyes appeared in front of him, as if he was teaching the woman a lesson, and the violent roar was full of disgust.
Xiao Beichen held his head suddenly.
What's going on, that picture...... How could he seem to have never seen it before, but yet he knew it to the bone?
"What's wrong with you?" Shen Tingcheng heard movement beside the bed, and when he looked up, he saw Xiao Beichen with his eyes closed and his face pale.
Xiao Beichen gasped in a low voice, and pinched his eyebrows with his thumb: "My headache has attacked, it hurts." ”
"Then lie down and rest, are you tired?" Shen Qingcheng hurriedly pulled him to lie down.
Xiao Beichen was afraid that her ill appearance would scare her, and she couldn't rest well, so she clenched her palms and stood up: "No, I suddenly remembered that there were still folds in the imperial study that had not been approved, and I would come back after I finished approving it." ”
He left in a hurry, leaving Shen Tingcheng to sit in front of the bed worriedly.
The tyrant's headache must be related to amnesia.
If one day she suddenly recovers her memory, will her fate be the same as in her previous life, or even worse?
