"I thought you didn't know the pain!" Leng Qisu chuckled, glanced at her, put the clothes he had taken off aside, then twisted the hot brocade towel in the copper basin, leaned over and gently wiped her face. neck.
Only then did Mo Shuang realize that she was only wearing a pink bellyband on her upper body, and this man's handsome face was right at hand, blowing like blue. She was embarrassed for a moment, bit her lip in silence, but her face turned red.
Fortunately, the man didn't seem to notice her embarrassment. All his attention was on her wound. After wiping it with a brocade towel, he applied some medicinal powder and gently wrapped it with a cloth tape.
After the wound was bandaged, he gently pulled up the thin quilt and covered her. As he stood up, something suddenly occurred to him, "By the way, why did you become a slave girl in the first place?"
ah!
Mo Shuang's breath was stagnant. She didn't understand why he suddenly asked this question. Was he suspicious? For a moment, my heart felt like tinkering.
Why did she become a female slave
Fortunately, I had thought about the rhetoric beforehand.
"I have been a wandering orphan for as long as I can remember." She frowned, with pain in her eyes, as if she couldn't bear to look back on the past, "I have been a beggar, a hard worker, Later, I met a person who said that many wealthy families in Nanxuan City were recruiting maidservants with very high monthly salaries, so I believed him, but when I arrived at Nanxuan, he sold her into a slave."
While she was talking, she looked at him carefully, but she saw that he had a calm face and was packing up the things on the desk. He seemed to be asking casually, and he seemed to be listening casually, without any meaning.
The more he behaved like this, the more guilty she felt.
"Why did the prince suddenly think of asking this?"
"Oh, it's nothing, just asking." Leng Qisu's eyes flashed slightly, and after a moment, he raised the corners of his lips and smiled brightly: "I saw that your skin is as good as snow and your fat is as thick as jade. I thought you didn't suffer much, so I thought What kind of declining official family is he from?"
It was originally a beautiful word of praise, but now it felt like a thorn in Mo Shuang's ears.
Ever since her brother Yi took her in when she was eight years old, she has lived a life of fine clothing and fine food, bathing with various flowers every day. Of course her skin is delicate and delicate, but she did not expect that this man would doubt her identity because of this. .
What a careful and suspicious man!
Mo Shuang smiled sarcastically, her heart in her throat, "The prince is really good at joking, how can I be so lucky..."
"I don't think you do either!" Leng Qisu interrupted her with a smile, "How can there be a lady from an official family who can't read a single word?"
This man changed so quickly that Mo Shuang couldn't keep up.
He was the one who probed, and he was the one who retreated. She couldn't figure out how much was true and how much was false.
Just as I was thinking about how to answer his words, I heard him say: "Okay, you have a good rest first, and I will come back as soon as I go!"
After saying that, without waiting for her to react, he flicked the corner of his robe and strode out.
Mo Shuang suddenly remembered the poison on her body and quickly called out: "Your Majesty!"
He looked back.
"I...will I die?"
He narrowed his eyes, pursed his lips and was silent for a few seconds. Then the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he smiled calmly, "What are you thinking about? I told you, it's not some rare poison."
