Camphor is an evergreen tree. It is easy to lose its leaves in spring. Now that it is winter, everything withers. In this camphor tree, the camphor leaves on the branches are green and lush.
Gu Xinglang stood with his back against a camphor tree, his head bowed, and his whole person looked unnerved.
Jiang Zhuojun stopped in front of Gu Xinglang and asked in a low voice, "Do you still want to kill someone?"
Gu Xinglang shook his head, clenched his eyebrows and looked up at Jiang Zhuojun, the bloody eyes and the pattern that took over the entire face were now gone. With his picturesque brows locked, Gu Xinglang said to Jiang Zhuojun hoarsely, "I'm fine."
Jiang Zhuojun looked at the corner of Gu Xinglang's mouth, where the bright red blood was very striking.
Seeing Jiang Zhuojun staring at his mouth, Gu Xinglang hurriedly raised his sleeves to wipe the corners of his mouth, and then stared at the blood on his sleeves for a while.
Jiang Zhuojun said after a long time, "Your own blood?"
Gu Xinglang wanted to nod his head, hurting himself, this is not a big deal, but in the end, Gu Sanshao still shook his head honestly.
Jiang Zhuojun quickly glanced up and down Gu Xinglang's body and saw no blood. Looking down, General Xiao Jiang noticed that a dark brown bird had fallen at Gu Xinglang's feet. It is similar to mud, so Jiang Zhuojun didn't notice it at first.
"This is?" Jiang Zhuojun fixed his eyes on the bird, whose neck was twisted.
Gu Xinglang kicked the bird corpse and kicked the bird over.
Jiang Zhuojun saw that the bird's neck was not only broken, but also had a hole open. Without the cover of the bird's carcass, Jiang Zhuojun could see the red soil.
Gu Xinglang lowered his brows and looked at this piece of soil, his body was a little stiff.
Jiang Zhuojun raised his foot, kicked the bird corpse deep into the forest, and said to Gu Xinglang, "It's fine if you don't drink raw blood."
Gu Xinglang suddenly looked up at Jiang Zhuojun.
"There's so much blood on the ground," Jiang Zhuojun stood side by side with Gu Xinglang, and said, "You have to drink its blood, so there's still so much left on the ground?"
After a long time, Gu Xinglang said, "I can't drink it."
Jiang Zhuojun kicked some soil, covered the soil soaked with bird blood, and said, "I have eaten a dish made with duck blood, and it tastes good. If you want to eat blood, you might as well ask mammy to use duck blood. The chicken blood or something is ready to eat, I ordered someone to find the recipe, and I found it and I gave it to you."
Gu Xinglang laughed at what Jiang Zhuojun said.
Jiang Zhuojun looked at Gu Xinglang with a serious face, and said, "Pig blood can also be eaten. When I was demoted to slavery, the guards killed dogs to eat meat. I also drank dog blood raw, and it tasted bad, but After drinking it, I don't feel very hungry."
Gu Xinglang said, "You want me to eat these things?"
Jiang Zhuojun said, "Did you not eat when you were marching?"
Gu Xinglang decisively shook his head and said, "No."
Jiang Zhuojun looked at Gu Xinglang with the expression of you teasing me. When he was marching, he also ate food made with horse blood.
Gu Xinglang said, "I have seen dishes cooked with horse blood."
Jiang Zhuojun said, "Didn't you try it?"
"I don't like to eat, so my eldest brother didn't let me touch it," Gu Xinglang said, thinking about it and adding: "I don't like horse meat either."
Jiang Zhuojun... Is it really okay for Master Gu to dote on his younger brother so much? Also, it's really hard to be with someone like the princess who eats delicious food.
Gu Xinglang asked Jiang Zhuojun, "Are my eyes still red?"
Jiang Zhuojun looked at Gu Xinglang's black and white eyes and said, "It's not red anymore, why, you still feel uncomfortable when you see things?"
Gu Xinglang glanced at the artery on the side of Jiang Zhuojun's neck. Not only did he feel uncomfortable seeing things, he could also hear the sound of blood flowing in the blood vessels.
Jiang Zhuojun touched his neck and said to Gu Xinglang, "Forget it, don't bear it any longer, wait for me here."
Gu Xinglang said, "Where are you going?"
Jiang Zhuojun waved at Gu Xinglang and said, "I'll go to the imperial kitchen."
Gu Xinglang is embarrassed, this time should be the Tai Hospital, right
Jiang Zhuojun ran to the imperial kitchen, because Her Royal Highness the princess was going to have lunch in the palace, so the royal chefs were busy in the imperial kitchen at the moment.
Seeing Jiang Zhuojun standing at the door of the imperial dining room, the eunuch in charge of the imperial dining room trotted all the way to meet Jiang Zhuojun, knelt down and salute: "The servant has seen the prince."
Jiang Zhuojun said, "Be flat."
The chief eunuch stood up from the ground, followed Jiang Zhuojun's gaze, and found that Prince Jiang was looking at the large chopping board in the imperial dining room, "What are your orders, sir?" The chief eunuch asked Jiang Zhuojun cautiously.
Jiang Zhuojun's eyes flickered on the chopping board, he washed it clean, and stopped on the chicken, duck, and geese waiting to be cut, and said to the eunuch, "Are there any live birds?"
The chief eunuch said: "My lord, this, these are not enough, not enough for the princess to eat?"
Jiang Zhuojun looked at the person in front of him with cold eyes. What kind of image does the princess look like in the eyes of these people
The chief eunuch was stared at by Jiang Zhuojun and wanted to urinate. Why are you, the dignified Lord Suzaku, coming to get food for our princess? Don't you know that there is already Her Majesty Jing Mo beside the princess? ! (You are enough too -_-|||)
"Get some blood and boil it, Jiang Zhuojun will be in charge of the eunuch.
The chief eunuch said, "What kind of blood do you want, my lord?"
Jiang Zhuojun asked, "Is chicken blood better or duck blood better?"
The chief eunuch said, "Everything is delicious."
"Then have a bowl," Jiang Zhuojun said. "How long do I have to wait?"
The chief eunuch looked at Jiang Zhuojun in a daze. When did the princess like to eat chicken and duck blood? (Why do you have to think this is what your princess wants to eat?!)
"Is there a problem?" Jiang Zhuojun looked at the chief eunuch and asked again, his voice a little louder.
"No problem, my lord, please wait a moment," the eunuch chief ran to the imperial kitchen.
"Just put a little less salt," Jiang Zhuojun added after the eunuch chief: "Don't cover up the smell of blood."
The chief eunuch staggered, what kind of strange taste is this
"It shouldn't be that the princess wants to eat," the royal chef muttered to his companions.
"Yeah," the man raised his head to look at Jiang Wangye, who was standing at the gate, and whispered, "Maybe their Suzaku people's taste is so strange." (Enough of you... )
Gu Xinglang was sitting in the camphor forest at the moment, all the birds that made their homes in this forest flew away, and the whole forest didn't hear the chirping of birds and insects, and it was terribly quiet. To make Gu Sanshao feel comfortable, he likes this kind of dead silence more than the bustling and bustling world.
A group of Ouchi guards patrolling the imperial palace passed by outside the forest. Gu Xinglang heard the heartbeats of these people, the sound of blood flowing, and his eyes were faintly red again.
"You guys go in and have a look," the captain ordered his four subordinates outside the forest.
The four internal guards took the lead, and the file went into this camphor forest.
