Chapter 27: Everyday Interactions
Next.
Zhao Hongming re-tied himself with a bandage and appeared in front of Chen Xuerong with a weak look.
At this time, Chen Xuerong was wearing a white suit and was practicing with a wooden knife in the courtyard.
Her body was steaming, and there was a layer of white mist constantly drifting.
The morning light fell on her ruddy side face, like a heavenly immortal above the nine heavens descending to earth, beautiful and incomprehensible.
Chen Xuerong has been staying in the palace for the past two days, either guiding Zhao Hongming to practice, or practicing hard alone.
Appears around him from time to time.
It felt like having another personal guard by your side.
It's kind of weird.
Zhao Hongming coughed and signaled that he had arrived.
Chen Xuerong heard the movement, came back to his senses, and stopped cultivating.
Zhao Hongming said with a slightly apologetic expression: "Miss Chen, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't talk to the girl anymore during this time." ”
"It's okay, we can talk about it later."
At that time, she saw that Zhao Hongming's mastery of martial arts was very good, and she subconsciously became serious.
So much so that in the end, he didn't control his strength well, which led to Zhao Hongming's injury.
She can't get away with it.
Under such a premise, Zhao Hongming did not blame her at all, which made her feel even more ashamed.
In fact, Zhao Hongming felt that he was a blessing in disguise for suffering this injury.
At present, his martial arts have basically been cultivated and fully comprehended under the blessing of the Heavenly Dao Reward Diligent Martial Arts Panel.
During this time, he was all focused on cultivating the Eight Desolation Immortal Gong, so whether he was injured or not would not have much impact on his cultivation.
On the contrary, in the future, you can use the excuse of being injured to go deep and concise and concentrate on cultivation.
Just like this morning, he asked the people below to go to the study to take leave, and no one doubted it.
The crown prince and several imperial brothers knew that he was injured in martial arts, and they also asked someone to send some healing medicine, so that he could get some benefits for nothing.
In addition, because of the injury, Zhao Hongming can also use this as an excuse to let Chen Xuerong demonstrate and explain in person to reduce the number of actual battles.
Avoid his dilemma and kill two birds with one stone.
"Your Highness. It's time to take your medicine. ”
While the two were talking, Wang Bao pouted and held the medicine box and walked over step by step.
This medicine is a healing medicine sent by the imperial brothers.
It has the effect of nourishing blood and qi and speeding up wound healing.
He has already tested it with mice, there is no problem, and he can take it boldly.
Zhao Hongming took a pill and put it in his mouth, and then took warm water and swallowed it.
Because his wounds had healed under the influence of immortality.
These pills Zhao Hongming took purely as a real tonic, which just happened to improve his physique.
Zhao Hongming drank the warm water and put the porcelain cup back on the tray.
Wang Bao leaned over and lowered his head, his stomach always swinging restlessly.
The last time he was punished with the cane, he also suffered a lot of injuries.
And the reckless little eunuch has not been seen again today, and it is estimated that he is more than lucky.
Regarding this matter, Zhao Hongming did not feel that he was too harsh.
Their royal family does not have the authority of martial arts, and they all rely on clear rewards and punishments to control the order.
If you are too weak to those below, you will lose your prestige.
Once the prestige is lost, it will be extremely dangerous for the royal family.
Historically, it has been difficult for weak or high-flying children of the royal family to survive to adulthood.
Zhao Hongming's mind moved slightly and said: "Come on, bring the gold sore medicine from the study of this palace." ”
"Yes."
In less than a dozen breaths, the servant brought the gold sore medicine from his study,
Zhao Hongming put it on the tray and said, "This medicine is quite effective for external injuries, go back and wipe your cheeks well, don't twist in front of the palace." ”
Wang Bao's face was suddenly full of smiles, and he said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for the medicine." ”
Zhao Hongming said nonchalantly: "Go down, take care of the people below in the future." ”
"Yes."
Chen Xuerong saw that Zhao Hongming had a big stick in his left hand and a radish in his right hand, and the technique of training the people below was old-fashioned.
It doesn't look like a thirteen-year-old at all.
As if thinking of something, Chen Xuerong reminded: "Your Highness, your body is still relatively weak now, and the medicinal power of some pills may not be able to be digested well. The courtiers happened to know some medicinal diets and could regulate their bodies, so I went to talk to the cook in the dining room and asked them to make them. ”
After speaking, Chen Xuerong walked out of the courtyard and went to the inner dining room.
Appreciating her graceful back, Zhao Hongming's mood in the morning became happy.
has lived in the palace for so many years, and every day is either to see the eunuch, or to see the emperor and the grandmother.
There aren't many opportunities like this.
Soon, Chen Xuerong went and returned, and walked back with a bowl of hot soup, the bowl was still steaming, obviously just ready.
Chen Xuerong said: "This is eight or nine soup, which not only tastes very good, but also stimulates the vitality of the body, and is also of great benefit to His Highness." ”
"Oh!" Zhao Hongming said: "That palace has to be tasted." ”
Seeing this, the little eunuch on the side hurriedly reminded and said, "Your Highness, according to the rules of our palace, you still need to be tried by the villain before you can taste it." ”
Zhao Hongming was quite satisfied with his management.
In the case of the Korean Assassins he had passed by, he felt that his food was too casual and unsafe, and that if he was poisoned, it would be easy for him to have an accident.
Moreover, in this special period, the environment is turbulent.
So under his intentional or unintentional instructions, Wang Bao was very interested in a set of drug testing processes.
Zhao Hongming feigned anger and said: "Dog slave, can Miss Chen still harm this palace?" ”
The little eunuch trembled like chaff, knelt on the ground, and said nothing.
Chen Xuerong relieved the siege in a timely manner and said: "What he said is reasonable, now that assassins are rampant in the palace, His Royal Highness should be careful with his usual meals." ”
After speaking, she habitually picked up a small cup, scooped a spoonful first, and tasted it herself.
"The taste is a little lighter."
Zhao Hongming smiled and said, "This palace will also come and taste it." ”
He picked up the spoon and tasted it, it tasted a little sweet and a little sour, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"What's wrong?" Seeing him like this, Chen Xuerong frowned and said, "This soup is not to His Highness's appetite." ”
Zhao Hongming shook his head and said, "That's not true, this soup is delicious." ”
"Then why?"
Zhao Hongming lowered his head, fiddled with the spoon in the bowl and said: "This palace is so big, it is the first time someone has cooked soup for this palace to drink, and I felt a lot of emotion for a while, which made Miss Chen smile." ”
After Chen Xuerong listened, he was speechless.
Only then did she remember that the prince in front of her had lost his mother at the age of four, and then he had been living alone for eight or nine years, and no one cared about him.
For so many years, there has been no one to support you along the way, which must be extremely hard.
Zhao Hongming drank all the soup, and gradually had an effect, and his face became more ruddy.
"Don't talk about that." Zhao Hongming said: "Next, the palace is inconvenient, and I still hope that Miss Chen will explain more practical experience to the palace, and there will be no need to learn." ”
"Okay." Chen Xuerong nodded and agreed.
