He couldn't wait to leave quickly, he nodded when he heard the words, he didn't need to help him, but when he wanted to stand up, he found that he had been tied in the same position for too long, and his legs were numb, so he suddenly lost his center of gravity, and subconsciously grabbed Ning Xun's hand that was waiting at his side.

It was also at this moment that several arrows burst through the window!

They were aimed at the silhouette of Ning Xun reflected outside the window, and without the determination to hit with one blow, they fired several arrows in unison.

The pond was facing the window, and when he heard the movement, he raised his eyes sharply and saw an arrow coming towards him in front of the door. Suddenly, the pain of the arrow piercing her heart and lungs in her memory came up, her pupils shrank, and in horror, she instinctively pulled the person in her hand with all her might, and subconsciously dodged-

The moment the arrow came, Ning Xun held the rank pool with one hand, and the other hand had already grasped the hilt of the sword at his side, and the long sword was ready to be unsheathed - the two years of bloody fighting on the battlefield left this body with unusual acuity. The window was closed, and the window was not large, and he was 100% sure that he could pull her out of the way.

But he didn't expect that the explosive power of the person he was holding in his hand would stop him from moving in a moment-Ning Xun reacted extremely quickly and immediately drew his sword to block it, but that moment was enough to make a mistake.

Between the lightning and flint, the pool seemed to be dragging the person in front of him to block the arrows.

...... It's really blocked.

An arrow was driven into Ning Xun's left shoulder, Ning Xun protected the head of the person in front of her with one hand, and rolled her to the side to avoid the next wave of arrow rain, almost at the same time as the lights and candles that had just been lit in the room.

Everything happened so fast, the pond was still in a panic, the light in the room suddenly went out, her eyes were not yet adjusted, she could not see anything in front of her, and she became more and more frightened, as if she had sunk to the bottom of the lake that day.

Like a drowning man clinging to driftwood, she instinctively clings to the only body in front of her that she can cling to.

The two broke away from the window, the lights went out again, the people outside lost their way for a while, and the rain of arrows stopped. This was followed by the sound of rustling, like countless footsteps approaching, disorganized.

The hand that clasped his shoulder was wet and wet, and he finally came to his senses. She was pressed to the ground, but there was still one of Ning Xun's hands behind her head, and he supported her with the other hand, the arrow in his left shoulder had already been cut off, but it was still bleeding, and the broken arrow dripped to her placket, wetting her placket.

As soon as she wanted to say something, she heard him whisper in the dark, and immediately fell silent.

Ji Chi cautiously raised her eyes, the light was too dim for her to see his expression clearly. But it won't look too good.

She swallowed, silently let go of the hand that had just been holding his shoulder, and listened intently to the movement outside the window.

There seemed to be a very short sound of iron blades coming together, but neither side wanted to make too much noise in front of everyone, and it didn't take long for the outside to subside.

It's time to be safe.

Ning Xun pulled away the hand that was cushioned behind her head and turned over neatly to the side. As soon as he pulled his hand away like this, she didn't have time to react, her head was caught off guard and snorted on the ground, although it didn't hurt, she was still stunned for a moment before she got up: "Your injury ......"

She was really worried this time, and she didn't pretend at all.

If she hadn't pulled him, he wouldn't have been hurt. What's more, he has been distracted to protect her just now - no matter how you say it, there is still guilt.

But then again, if he hadn't tied himself up, this wouldn't have happened tonight!

Zhichi stood up, looked at the wound on his shoulder that was still oozing blood, and hesitated for a moment: "Do you want to find a Lang Zhong?" ”

The prince stayed in the East Palace well, and naturally he would not be hit by an arrow for no reason - as long as he returned to the East Palace, he could not be exposed in front of others.

What's more, although this injury seems to be okay with life, but with so much blood, it should not be light...... If you don't deal with it in time, you won't delay the night party, right?

Ning Xun sat on the ground and glanced at her lightly when she heard the words: "How are you going to find it?" ”

Just now he kept saying that he was worried, but the next moment he could not hesitate to drag him away to block the arrow.

She found Lang Zhong for him, did he dare to look at it?

Zhichi was stunned for a moment, and said honestly: "I went to the hospital one by one, although it was Shangyuan Night, there were few Lang Zhongxing who were willing to go to the clinic, but I could always find it if I asked a few more." ”

"When you find someone, it's time for dawn."

His wound didn't look like it wouldn't last until dawn. She didn't have to worry about him. Zhichi sighed in his heart, and simply said sincerely: "I'm sorry. ”

She still felt guilty in her heart, and when she spoke, it brewed into ten: "I didn't mean to pull you to block the arrow for me, I ......" She paused, and her voice was lower: "I was scared for a while, I didn't react, I didn't know how to ......"

She knew in her heart that Ning Xun could tell whether she was doing it on purpose, or if she was in a panic - not to mention that the arrow was originally coming at him, and he was pulling her up.

If it weren't for that, when the long sword in his hand was unsheathed, it would not only be the flying arrows that were cut off.

She stood aside, speaking as if she had been greatly wronged.

She was really frightened when she was like that.

Ning Xun stretched out his hand to her, and sighed in her eyes that she didn't understand at all, "Help me." ”

When Ning Xun was held by the chi, he realized that he was not lightly injured. He gave her almost half of his weight to her, and she helped him to the door—there should be someone outside the door ready to answer, and he needed to show up and let them know what was going on—but she was there, and they were afraid they wouldn't be able to show up.

So when Ning Xun asked her to go, she responded like a stream.

She was just about to leave, but was stopped by Ning Xun again: "There is a cloak in the house." ”

There are many people outside, and her clothes are stained with blood, so it is not appropriate to show off in the market.

Zhichi looked down at the blood stains on his clothes, understood, went in and put on his cloak, but stopped in front of Ning Xun, as if he was not in a hurry to leave.

Ning Xun covered her left shoulder with one hand, leaned against the door, and looked up at her suspiciously.

She hesitated for a moment, and Ai Ai said, "Is there any silver?" Lend me two taels, and I'll have to change my outfit before I can go back. ”

At this time, I thought about it thoroughly.

Ning Xun was so angry with her that she wanted to laugh for a while, took out a bag of broken silver and threw it to her, seeing that she took the money and raised her legs without any nostalgia and left, she endured it and endured it, and still instructed in an unkind tone: "Go east, there will be fewer people." ”

He only shook his money bag at him, and he didn't look back.

As soon as she left on her front foot, Qing Heng immediately led the doctor in.

Fortunately, although the arrow was deep, it did not hurt the bones, only the flesh.

As long as the arrow is taken out to stop the bleeding, the rest is slowly raised.

The doctor cut open Ning Xun's left shoulder and carefully pulled the arrow out of his flesh.

Ning Xun closed his eyes, and even if he could bear it, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead, and he rubbed something hard in his hand, and told Qing Heng to tell him the situation outside.

There were no outsiders in the house, so Qing Heng knelt down and pleaded guilty: "My subordinates were derelict in their duties, and they let that group of thieves hurt Your Highness, please punish Your Highness." ”

It was a long time before he heard his highness call out and exempted him from punishment.

Ning Xun's face was pale, his voice was completely dumb, and the doctor wrapped up the wound on his shoulder, and then he put down the gadget that Fang Cai had been holding in his hand.

Qing Hengdou glanced at it boldly—it was a woman's step. He guessed almost instantly who the owner of the step was.

He wanted to dare to say a few more words, but seeing that His Highness was already a little tired, he swallowed back the words before he could say them.

He has followed His Highness since the frontier, and as the leader of the shadow guard cultivated by His Highness, although he is not as far-sighted as His Highness many times, he can also guess His Highness's mind seven points accurately.

Only in matters related to this woman, he has not once read and understood His Highness's thoughts.

Ning Xun looked at the style of the red gold beads in his hands, the craftsmanship was first-class and fine, and he knew at a glance that it was expensive. Especially the East China Sea pearl with such a color, I am afraid that it is difficult to find.

It was he who had just protected her head and rolled on the ground when she fell.

This step is enough to appear in the makeup of any county lord or even princess.

Dongzhu is shiny, Ning Xun squinted slightly, there are a lot of people in the Moon Capture Fang, why did his second brother choose her alone?

* Since the first night of the first year, he has been hiding for five or six days on the grounds of concentrating on dancing practice. Until the wound on his neck was really as Ning Xun said, leaving only a very shallow trace.

She was originally prepared to postpone the East Palace Night Banquet due to "various reasons", but she didn't expect that the East Palace Night Banquet in this life was still set on the twenty-seventh day of the first month, which was exactly the same.

She has already learned all the methods she should learn, and the dance has already been rehearsed seamlessly, so she just waits for being sent to the East Palace with peace of mind.

On the twenty-fifth day of the first month, she went to the fruit shop in the East Market to meet Qingdai, and told everything again and again before returning to the Moon Harvesting Fang.

Unexpectedly, there were already people waiting for her at her residence.

It was a bad day, and the windows were closed, and the room was darker. Shen Che stood by the window, and the cold wind she brought in when she entered the door made him cough a few times. He lowered his head and put the stove in his hand on a mink holster before handing it to her, "Out?" ”

The heat of the sleeve on the stove cover was just right for her at this time, which was warm and not too hot to burn.

She nodded, "Thinking that it may not be inconvenient to go out for a walk in the future, I went out to take a breath." ”

Her words evoked the guilt in his eyes, and Shen Che sighed, "Rank pool." ”

He picked up the teapot and shook it, and asked him, "Do you want to drink?" ”

He looked at her for a long time, "If you are afraid, you can ......."

"Can you not go?" She laughed and poured him a cup of hot tea, "Ah Che, I remember what we said that day. ”

"Why aren't you afraid? But I know I don't have a choice. I also know that you promised me that you will not break your promise. ”

She handed him the teacup and looked him in the eye—she should have steadied him so that she could pave the way for the future.

Hearing her mention the three requirements of the day, Shen Che's eyes softened again and again.

"So Ah Che came over at this time, what else do you have to ask?"

Shen Che took the teacup and said straight to the point: "Two days later, the East Palace will hold a banquet, and if nothing happens, you will be left by the prince on the spot." It's just that you have just entered the East Palace, and before you are familiar with everything, you should not act rashly. ”

"For a month, the first thing is to protect yourself. Tao Yao's dance appeared suddenly, and it was hard to guarantee that the prince would not be suspicious. The first thing you have to do is to reassure him. Then get as close to him as you can and make him trust you. ”

"After a month, it's only natural that someone will find you. What needs to be done from you, will tell you. If you have anything you want to hand over, you can trust it to the person who came to you. If you encounter difficulties, you can ask them for anything. ”

He took the opportunity to ask, "How can I tell which of our people are?" ”

But Shen Che only smiled, intentionally or unintentionally avoiding her question, and did not tell her how many people in the East Palace were used by him, but only said, "The person who goes to find you will bring my handwritten letter." ”

The pond sighed in his heart, it was really leaky. She knew that she wouldn't ask so easily, and she didn't bother anymore, so she directly asked him: "I want to write to my mother, and I want to see her reply." Once a month. ”

"Okay." He paused and added, "I'll take good care of her, don't worry." ”

"It's easy for you to find me, but if something happens and no one comes to me, how can I find you?"

He looked at the pool, and there was in his eyes the usual confidence of the arranger when he was in control: "If something happens, someone will definitely find you." ”

His seemingly in-control attitude upset her for no reason. He raised his eyes and met his gaze: "What if I'm in danger?" If something happens to me, can I go to the Zhenguo Mansion to find you? ”

Shen Che looked at her with a gentle gaze, and his voice fell decisively: "No." ”

With a chuckle, as if she had known something for a long time, she looked away and said in the same tone, "I know." Scares you. ”

"There won't be that day." Shen Che sighed, "If you really want to find me, find a way to go back to Yuefang." Come to Mei Niang and tell her that you want to see me. ”

He was not allowed to come to the Zhenguo Mansion to find himself, not only because he was afraid that he would fall short.

He was even more afraid that if there was really that day, she would be cornered and go to the Zhenguo Mansion to find him in front of everyone, which would push her into the abyss from which she would never recover.

The prince lost power, the waves in Beijing were treacherous, and there were countless winds and waves in a breath. The highest place where he wants to support Ning Zhen is also the place of the brightest.

Those who become great entrepreneurs will not and should not have weaknesses.

The more she hides in the shadows, the easier it is to be preserved before he can deal with her without any worries.

The pool responded with a good word, and it was not surprising. When he finished his tea, he excused himself and urged him to leave.

On the twenty-seventh day of the first lunar month, there was a snowfall.
