Chapter 115: Feeding the Medicine
The King of Chu sent a spoonful of medicinal soup to Xue Jinyi, "You drink the medicine obediently, and I will tell you." ”
Xue Jinyi stared at King Chu's face, as always, without any expression.
She swallowed the medicinal soup with just the right temperature in one gulp, and then King Chu scooped another spoonful.
"You might as well give me the bowl directly, so that the king of Chu can save the labor." Xue Jinyi said, going to get the soup bowl.
King Chu turned sideways and avoided her hand, "You also have injuries on your hands." ”
Xue Jinyi looked at the spoon that was stretched out in front of her again, and said with a smile: "That's it, anyway, someone is serving, so I'll enjoy it." ”
The king of Chu did not have a different color, she drank the medicinal soup as if she was enjoying it.
"Alright," she asked, swallowing the last gulp of the medicine, "can you answer my question now?" ”
"You really care about me." King Chu showed a playful smile and looked directly into Xue Jinyi's eyes, "Have you changed your mind, Miss Xue?" ”
This shameless narcissist...... Xue Jinyi slowly wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, "We originally agreed, but you suddenly changed your mind, why do you want to let me, an ally, know the reason, so that we can continue to maintain our bleak trust, right?" ”
King Chu said: "If I say that I care about your safety, do you believe it?" ”
"Letter?" Xue Jinyi couldn't guess the careful thinking of King Chu's words, and nodded generously, "Why don't you believe it?" But why haven't you been able to catch up with us for most of the day? ”
"Maybe it's a fork." The King of Chu lowered his eyes and put the bowl back next to the small stove, "Later, when the rain poured down, I happened to meet some refugees, so I brought them here. ”
Xue Jinyi asked, "Did the refugees trust you?" ”
Although the dress of the King of Chu seems to be low-key, but this dress and momentum look like he is either rich or expensive, and he doesn't look like a good person, how can a highly vigilant refugee easily believe her words?
King Chu turned around abruptly and stared at Xue Jinyi's eyes, "What exactly do you want to ask?" ”
"......" Xue Jinyi was shocked by his sharp eyes, and almost forgot what to say, "Since you care about me, shouldn't I care about you?" ”
The king of Chu turned around and took the fire tongs to pluck the firewood in the small stove, "because someone persuaded them." ”
"Who?"
King Chu glanced at him with a funny look, "It seems that there is someone else you really care about." ”
Xue Jinyi laughed dryly, "My curiosity, how did you misinterpret this?" ”
King Chu said: "It was the person who saved you from Zhuang Erlang yesterday." ”
Ah Yan? Xue Jinyi moved her lips and smiled, "I see." Fortunately, His Royal Highness the King of Chu and we are both blessed and have a great life, and there is no accident. By the way, we picked up Zhao Wen'er on the way back, and now we should be here to recuperate, right? ”
King Chu said coldly: "The doctor will treat every wounded. ”
He doesn't seem to care about Zhao Wen'er's life or death at all? Or did you go to visit Zhao Wen'er after coming back to see her, so you know that there is no need to worry?
Xue Jinyi rubbed her eyes and yawned.
What happened to King Chu and Zhao Wen'er, and what did it matter to her?
"Shall we go back to Beijing tomorrow?" She asked lazily.
"Well, it's hard to walk on a rainy day." The king of Chu dropped the tongs and patted the dust on his hands, "Send you back to Beijing to recuperate, don't come to the Digong Temple recently." ”
"Okay." Xue Jinyi nodded, knowing that now was not the time to be reckless.
The king of Chu looked at her again and went out.
Subsequently, Qinglan and Qingzhi came in.
Qinglan saw her look wilted, and whispered excitedly: "Miss Xue, Your Highness hasn't been to see Zhao Wen'er since she came back. Zhao Wen'er was originally looking for someone to invite, but His Royal Highness asked her to tell her to have a good rest. ”
Xue Jinyi didn't seem to hear it, and picked up a book from the side casually.
Qing Zhi tugged at her arm and motioned for her to stop talking, "Then what is Zhao Wen'er, worthy of Miss Xue to remember?" What's more, His Royal Highness has always been by the side of the young lady. ”
"Yes, yes," Qinglan patted her mouth a few times apologetically, "It's the slave who lost her words." Miss Xue, you've been sleeping for a long time, and the slave has prepared some rice porridge and side dishes for you, can you use some now? ”
Saying this, Xue Jinyi felt hungry and nodded.
Qinglan diligently took the gruel that had been hot on another small stove, and found that half of the soup had been boiled, and there was residual medicinal juice in the small bowl next to it.
She filled the gruel and returned to the small couch, looked at her hands wrapped because of abrasions, and asked with a smile, "Miss Xue, did His Highness help you drink the medicine just now?" ”
"Hmm."
Qinglan smiled and glanced at Qingzhi, in her opinion, the simpler Miss Xue's answer was, the more it meant that she was a little shy?
The county lord is right, let Miss Xue slowly feel the goodness of His Royal Highness the King of Chu.
The two waited for Xue Jinyi to eat something.
Xue Jinyi asked them to rest, and then pushed open a gap in the small window next to them, and some of the refugees slept in the shed in the courtyard. It was not early, and only a few refugees were sitting next to the small fire and chatting in a low voice, so it seemed that the long voice of the king of Chu was quite noticeable.
Probably because the king of Chu had been wandering outside for the past two days, he was not familiar with the refugees, and when this gloomy man appeared in front of him, the refugees timidly wanted to salute him.
The king of Chu raised his hand to stop, walked through the crowd, came to the gate of the courtyard, and sat on the ground despite the dirt on the steps.
His back was like a mountain, standing steadily under the moonlight.
Xue Jinyi couldn't help but look at it twice, and when she was about to close the window boringly, a panicked figure crashed into her eyes.
It was a petite female figure, who spun around like a headless fly in the crowd for a while, and then rushed to the door, and called crisply, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu." ”
King Chu looked back and saw that the cold moonlight fell between his eyebrows, making the moonlight even colder.
"Your Highness, are you alright?" The voice was full of concern, "I've been dizzy until I woke up, and I didn't have time to thank you." ”
"It's not me who you should thank." King Chu spoke, his tone as cold as his gaze.
Zhao Wen'er was stunned for a moment, and said with a dry smile: "Your Highness, I thought you rescued me back?" ”
"If you really have the heart, thank you to Miss Xue."
Zhao Wen'er clenched her fingers and asked her to thank that cheap girl? If it weren't for the fact that the surname Xue had to go out, how could His Highness be in danger? and let His Highness not be able to come to see her until now!
When she was thinking about how to speak, the king of Chu said again: "I heard that Mama Zhao has not been in good health recently, she has no children and no daughters, only a niece like you, so you go back early tomorrow so that you can take care of your aunt." ”
