When I came out of the bathroom again, I don't know how long it has been.
Huo Du walked out with a sullen face, the rich rose fragrance disappeared, and the faint sandalwood fragrance drifted into his nose, making his heart slightly relaxed. He really couldn't think of how to explain what had just happened to Le Zhi.
- It seems that the explanation is wrong.
bother.
He walked over slowly, lay stiffly on the bed, and didn't even put down the bed curtain. Quietly listening to the breathing beside him, Huo Du knew that she hadn't slept.
Suddenly, the quilt moved slightly, and Le Zhi slowly moved his little hand to his side, covering the back of his hand. Then she will slowly approach him, resting her head on his shoulders, cradling his arms with both hands, and whispering, "It's alright."
Full of soothing tones.
Huo Du's expression was extremely ugly, and he turned his head to look into her eyes. And his frowning, gloomy face fell into Le Zhi's eyes, which confirmed her conjecture.
This kind of thing really hits a man's self-esteem too much.
Le Zhi sighed silently, she obediently buried her face in Huo Du's neck, rubbed gently, "Go to sleep."
She knew that it was useless to talk more at this time, she could only comfort him like this. By the way, I secretly said in my heart that I must find a way to help him heal.
She fell asleep with determination...
And the warm and light breath brushed Huo Du's neck, subtle but hard to ignore, as if it was tickling his heart. He lowered his eyes, his eyes fixed on the top of Le Zhi's head, and he felt his gradually unstable heartbeat and breathing.
-Little fox, my brother will be killed by you sooner or later.
Huo Du laughed. He approached her head, kissed her gently, and put his face on her crow's hair. Accompanied by the quiet fragrance of hibiscus flowers in her hair, she slowly closed her eyes in the joy and intolerable torment...
Before dawn, the sky was plunged into the thickest darkness. And in the palace of King Jingxian, someone stayed up all night.
Shen Qingyan leaned on the head of the bed weakly, her eyes empty and tired. The nightgown on her body was loose, and her neck, shoulders, back... almost all over her body were mottled marks.
What's worse, her lips were slightly red and swollen, and it was a little difficult to close...
She looked at the man who had already fallen asleep on the bed with resentment in her eyes. The smell of alcohol in the room was so strong that it was difficult to dissipate. In addition, there was also the heavy smell of love. After the incident, it was mixed and unpleasant.
Shen Qingyan's mind was filled with all kinds of events that had happened in recent days, and she couldn't help being dizzy—
She really hoped it was a nightmare.
A few days ago, because Yu Xian made a big fuss, many things came to light. It turned out that Huo Xu had never cut off contact with Le Zhi, except for this time when Yu Xian bumped into it, how many times did they meet in private
He could even beat Yu Xian for a room that looked like Le Zhi...
Shen Qingyan's heart was cold, and she couldn't bear it any longer. It's true that she loves him, but she's not without dignity. She proposed to reconcile, but Huo Xu refused, so she had to ask her father for help, but the queen made trouble, they just refused to let her go.
No, it should be said that Huo Xu was unwilling to give up the help brought by her father's prime minister status.
For her sake, her father tried every possible way, and even deliberately confronted Huo Xu in the courtroom. But after all, considering her, his father just beat him, in order to force him to be better to himself.
In this world, if a woman marries the wrong person, it seems that her life will be ruined.
Because of his father, Huo Xu restrained a lot in front of her, but Shen Qingyan could see that he really didn't like her.
Yesterday, Huo Xu was reprimanded by His Majesty in the morning, and he also lost Xia Feitai's management and persuasion... He was so angry that he returned drunk. Huo Xu can still maintain a warm and hypocritical appearance when he is sober, but once he is drunk, it is difficult to suppress his nature...
He blamed Shen Qingyan for the recent unhappiness, he hated Shen Huai for stumbling him for Shen Qingyan, and he didn't say a word for him when he was reprimanded!
Shen Qingyan had just recovered from her serious illness, and her menstrual period had just passed, and her body became weak. But Huo Xu was drunk, and regardless of her pushback, he just pulled off her thin shirt and rudely approached her—
"Pretend what? Isn't that what you want?"
This was the only thing he said to her after entering the room. After he finished speaking, he pressed Shen Qingyan to the ground...
Before, Huo Xu pretended to be gentle, but this time, he completely revealed his true nature. Shen Qingyan tilted her head, her eyes were red. She didn't want to recall, but the embarrassing picture was always in her mind and couldn't flow.
Huo Xu fiddled and kneaded her wantonly, using a number of gestures that made her feel humiliated. In the end, he actually held her shoulders, forcibly forced her to use her mouth...
She had wiped away the white marks on her lips long ago with a handkerchief, but when she thought of these, Shen Qingyan couldn't help retching. When she had love in her heart before, she was willing to do this for him.
Now the love is broken, and all that is left is full of disgust.
The red candle went out, and the sky suddenly appeared.
The hangover muttered in his mouth, frowning slightly, as if he was about to wake up. Shen Qingyan quickly pulled the quilt and lay down, pretending to be asleep.
She couldn't face him.
Fortunately, Huo Xu didn't want to ignore her either. After he woke up, he immediately turned over and stayed on the bed, not even covering the quilt he had lifted with him...
Shen Qingyan closed his eyes and listened to the sound of the slumped person getting dressed. After he finished dressing, he walked away.
At the moment when the door was closed, Shen Qingyan broke free from her sour eyes, tears pouring down like rain.
- At this moment, she felt that she was a noble Princess Jingxian, but was trampled and insulted at will, just like the poor brothel women mentioned in the book.
Lv Ying, who was standing not far from the door, stayed awake all night, until she saw Huo Xu leaving, she hurried over and opened the door—
The turbid smell in the room made Lu Ying frown, and she lifted her legs into the room. After seeing her master's face, her heart tightened. She hurried to the side of the cave and squatted down. She took out the handkerchief and shook her hands to wipe Shen Qingyan's tears, "Master, don't cry, don't cry..."
Lu Ying choked and persuaded, but when she saw the shocking red marks on her body through Shen Qingyan's loose bedclothes, she couldn't help shedding tears.
"Master, shall we go back to the prime minister's mansion?" Lu Ying sobbed, her voice trembling, "Let's go and tell the prime minister, please find a way..."
Lu Ying was heartbroken. Her master was the treasure of the Prime Minister's mansion since she was a child. How could she ever suffer such a big grievance? She clenched her fists tightly, if Master Xiang knew, she would never let the person who hurt her!
But Shen Qingyan shook her head weakly.
She can no longer go back to the mansion without recklessness and embarrass her father. She is no longer a little girl who hasn't grown up, and can't rely on her father blindly. She wanted to rely on herself, leave Jingxian's palace dignifiedly, and withdraw herself from this wrong and absurd marriage.
"Lvying, prepare hot water for me."
- She had to wash away the filth that the man shed, and even the affection she had for him, all washed away.
The morning sun has only emerged, and the morning fog has not yet dissipated.
"Quick! Ah Chan shoots him!"
Linyue stood on the edge of Lezhi, dancing happily, talking and laughing.
The five people in the yard held different weapons and learned from each other.
—They are the three men and two women that Lezhi brought back from the slave farm.
The woman who was called Achan by Linyue held a bow and crossbow and shot it steadily towards the young man on the right. The young man did not panic, and threw a stone at random, knocking the silver arrow away.
Seeing this, Chan's face turned cold, and she raised her bow and crossbow again unconvinced...
On the other side of the three, one holds a sword and the other holds a knife, and the smallest woman is holding a soft whip, fighting with each other, unable to tell the difference for a while.
After a while, the sound of gasping in the yard became heavier and louder, and Le Zhi laughed and called to stop, "Come here and rest for a while before practicing."
Hearing the words, the five people stopped, but their eyes unanimously looked at An Xuan who was standing on the left, as if waiting for him to speak.
And An Xuan lifted his sleepy eyelids and said nothing.
Seeing that he was silent, the five of them didn't move. They were the best in the slave farm, but after all, they had not undergone orthodox training. The Crown Princess bought them and brought them back to the mansion, and also took care of their bodies.
They are all abandoned or sold by their families since childhood, wandering around, hungry and full, unknown names and identities, they thought they would be slaves to be beaten and scolded for life, but they never thought that God would still Give them such a situation...
Although they are not good at words, each of them swears in their hearts that they will repay their master's kindness.
These days, An Xuan is responsible for taking them for morning exercises and teaching them according to the kung fu they are good at. The five of them are extremely diligent, if An Xuan did not say that he was qualified, he would not stop to rest.
- They have to work hard and contribute to their masters as soon as possible!
The yard suddenly fell silent.
Lezhi rolled his eyes, glanced at the cakes on the stone table, and raised his voice deliberately to ask Linyue, "Who made this jujube mud cake?"
"If you go back to the master, it was Jing Xin who got up early in the morning to do it!"
"That's it." Le Zhi reached out and touched the edge of the plate, sighing, "It's getting cold, Jing Xin finally made it, and no one eats it, what a waste!"
"No..." Lin Yue just wanted to say no, the jujube mud cake is just as delicious when it's cold. But the master held her wrist and prevented her from speaking.
really weird!
Le Zhi glanced at An Xuan's face, and as she expected, her condensed expression loosened. Then she heard him say lightly: "Take a break for a quarter of an hour."
The five of them were relieved and quickly ran to the edge of the stone table, and happily started to eat snacks.
A Chan was not doing well just now, staring at the person beside her unhappily, "Stay away from me!"
The boy shrank his neck. This chan smiles at everyone else, but she's too stern towards him! But he didn't dare to fight against her, so he took a few steps to the side obediently, just in time to see the short little girl drinking tea—
"Xiaoxi, your whip is soft, are you hitting mosquitoes?"
"You!" Xiaoxi, the smallest in stature, lowered her face and made a gesture to hit him.
"Xiao Ming, don't always bully Xiaoxi." Another prudent boy said in a deep voice.
Xia Ming laughed, "Ayu, why are you always protecting this girl?"
"Can you shut up!" Chan said unhappily, and poked Xia Ming's back with a bow and crossbow.
Le Zhi smiled and watched them play, they were only one or two years younger than her, only Dong Yi, who didn't like to talk, was three years younger than her. Although they are masters and servants, she also treats them as younger brothers and sisters.
She named them-
Achan, Xiaoxi, Xia Ming, Qiuyu and Dongyi.
Apart from the time for practicing martial arts, Lezhi also teaches them how to read when he has time. She hopes that when it's all over, they can all have a bright future.
Perhaps his life is not complete, and Le Zhi hopes that the people around him can live a more complete life.
"Xiao Yiyi, why haven't you spoken?" Xia Ming shifted his target again, "I heard that you made a contribution yesterday! The leader of the horse robbery was caught by you, it's amazing!"
Dong Yi, who was quietly biting the cake, blushed and did not speak.
Le Zhi looked at him. The skinny and dark boy who was on the slave farm that day looked much better. She was indeed right. Although Dong Yi was the youngest of the five, his aptitude was the best.
So yesterday An Xuan arranged him in the escort team, originally to let him experience the experience, but unexpectedly there was a sudden accident, and the reaction of this kid was really beyond An Xuan's expectations.
In less than a moment, Dong Yi alone restrained Fu Xian. In addition to being responsive, he also has keen insight, and Ji Qi accurately judged that Fu Xian was the leader of the team.
After being reminded by Xia Ming, Le Zhi remembered this. Originally, she planned to ask An Xuan, but now it seems that there is no need to be so troublesome, just ask Dong Yi. She wants to figure out one thing...
"Xiaoyi, when you were fighting yesterday, how many people were around? Did many people see it?"
Hearing Le Zhi's question, Dong Yi raised his eyes, revealing clear eyes. He recalled for a moment and nodded, "In response to the words of the master, although we subdued them quickly, there are many people on the street, so many people should have seen it."
Hearing this, Le Zhi smiled and nodded thoughtfully.
At this time, Huo Du slowly came over pushing Bai Yu's wheelchair. When the five little guys saw his figure, they couldn't help but keep silent. Even though they were separated by a long distance, the pressure on him made them shiver.
They unanimously bowed to Huo Du in the distance, then hurriedly faced Lezhi and said, "Master, let's continue to practice!"
After that, they each picked up their weapons and ran to the other yard.
Lin Yue also found an excuse to retire first.
Le Zhi laughed. She raised her eyes and looked at Huo Du, only to see that he was wearing a light gray straight robe today, with silver fish white patterns embroidered on the side, which seemed to glow softly in the warm sun. The outermost was a star blue robe, and he The cold and white face was also a little less gloomy than usual.
She looked at the navy blue skirt on her body again... Her little face was a little red.
Did this person deliberately choose the same color as hers
Recalling what happened last night, Le Zhi was still a little embarrassed. That's why she woke up early, lest he would be embarrassed to see her when he woke up...
She looked down and shook her head.
Stop thinking about it!
Business matters.
Le Zhi raised her eyes and saw Huo Du looking at her not far away. He deliberately didn't come, he sat quietly, put his hand on the armrest, and clasped it lightly with his fingertips, it was obvious—
Ask her to go and push him.
The dead cripple is really hypocritical.
She bit her lip, stood up and walked over, pushing him to the stone table according to his wishes. Then she sat down beside Huo Du and whispered—
"His Royal Highness, you said about Brother Fu Xian's robbery of the carriage yesterday... Does Huo Xu know?"
Huo Du was stunned for a moment, then bent his lips. He held Le Zhi's hand casually, but frowned at the coolness of her palm.
"His Royal Highness took over from him yesterday to take charge of Xia Feitai's affairs. He must have been hit hard." Le Zhi smiled. She knew very well how much Huo Xu's competitiveness was. When he was a child, because he couldn't compare to Fu Xian in his homework, he would be so uncomfortable that he couldn't eat. .
Now, he must be very miserable.
The more uncomfortable Huo Xu was, the happier she was.
"So what?" Huo Du smiled.
"So..." Le Zhi unconsciously put the other hand on the back of his, her brows were smiling, and a sly light appeared in the fox's eyes, "Don't Your Highness not want to take this opportunity to beat up the underdog? "
