"Let go of me!" Cheng Shizhao scolded Zhou Xiaoxiao in a low voice.
Zhou Xiaoxiao hesitated for a while.
He won't catch me and behead me as soon as I untie it.
"Untie it! The Lone King doesn't care about you! Do you really want to be seen by Xingzhi?"
Zhou Xiaoxiao immediately cut the rope with a knife.
Cheng Shizhao supported the edge of the kang and tried to get up.
Just when he was about to put on his robe.
With a bang, the door was kicked open, and Yu Xingzhi stepped forward with a pale face.
I saw that the house was messy, the kang table was overturned on the ground, Cheng Shizhao and Zhou Xiaoxiao were disheveled, and both looked at him in surprise.
Yu Xingzhi's forehead was bursting with blue veins, his eyes were red, and there were violent winds and rain in his eyes.
He grabbed Cheng Shizhao and punched him.
The ninth prince, Cheng Shiqi, who followed him, hugged him tightly from then on: "I can't beat him, I can't beat him."
Yu Xingzhi kicked him away: "You stumbled on me in every way today, just to facilitate him to do such a vile deed!"
"Fight, let you fight. Lao Jiu, don't stop him!" Cheng Shizhao said yin and yang angrily, "You haven't touched me since you were a child, and today I'll let you get what you want!"
"You!" Yu Xingzhi was furious.
A white hand stretched out to the side and grabbed his wrist.
This hand is small but powerful.
"Don't fight, I've already fought, and if I fight again, I'll be killed." Zhou Xiaoxiao said.
Yu Xingzhi turned his head and looked at her with red eyes.
"Look at me, I'm fine." Zhou Xiaoxiao stretched out her other hand and gently followed Yu Xingzhi's back, "Look, I'm fine."
She opened her hands and turned in small circles.
Yu Xingzhi blinked, and then he realized that something was wrong.
Zhou Xiaoxiao is well-dressed and neat in manner, but her hair is a little messy. On the contrary, Cheng Shizhao had disheveled hair, a blue nose and a swollen face, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, messy clothes, and jerky movements.
The guards of the palace who followed in were startled, and with a clatter, they drew out their waist knives and pointed at Zhou Xiaoxiao in unison.
Cheng Shizhao's face turned blue and white, extremely embarrassed. He was furious to hear that Yu Xingzhi was tortured because of him, and he was furious that he was beaten defenselessly by a woman.
Angrily shouted: "Stop, it's not enough to be ashamed, come with me!"
After speaking, he limped away with the help of the captain of the bodyguard, Guo Suren.
The guards looked at each other in dismay, put away their weapons in a daze, and followed them out.
Guo Suren secretly said bitterly in his heart. He remembered the scene he encountered before. It turned out that the prince was "bullied" at that time. I mistakenly thought it was some kind of hobby of the prince.
I didn't see it myself. Seeing helplessly, he didn't come forward to rescue the driver. Looking back, the lord remembered that it would be good to settle accounts after the autumn.
The room fell silent as they left.
Yu Xingzhi's companion, Yu Tong, stuck his head out from behind and asked cautiously, "My little aunt, did you really beat up His Royal Highness King Yan?"
Zhou Xiaoxiao's eyes fluttered for a moment: "Then... I've been beaten, what should I do now? Should I pack my bags and run away now?"
Yu Xingzhi's eyes were red, staring at Zhou Xiaoxiao. He reached out and touched Zhou Xiaoxiao's head lightly, and finally couldn't help but hug her into his arms.
His voice was hoarse: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for making you suffer so much."
Zhou Xiaoxiao felt wrong: "Xingzhi, why is your body so hot?"
The person holding her tightly fell down slowly. Zhou Xiaoxiao caught Yu Xingzhi and reached out to touch it, only to see that his face was flushed and his forehead was hot.
Zhou Xiaoxiao hurriedly supported him, and turned to ask Yu Tong, the attendant: "What's the matter? Why is he suddenly so sick?"
Yu Tong frowned and said: "You don't know, the fifth master has not recovered from this injury since he returned to Beijing. Some time ago, because he refused to marry the eldest grandson's family, he disobeyed his wife and was sent down by the grandfather of the country. The dead hand beat the board. I have a pity that my fifth master beat Xiao Jinzun Yugui. How could he ever suffer this crime. Later, he received a letter from your aunt, and he vomited blood on the spot. His Royal Highness King Yan stopped him desperately, followed the advice all the way, did not let him hurry, and drove slowly. This is how he saved his life and came to see you wholeheartedly."
Zhou Xiaoxiao frowned, wondering in her heart, why did she write to say goodbye to me.
But now is not the time to ponder. So Yu Xingzhi was placed on the bed in the inner wing, and Yu Tong was sent to invite the doctor.
Because of King Yan's trouble, everyone in the house was shocked and chaotic. Zhou Xiaoxiao went out of the house to appease everyone. Just turned around, the doctor has arrived.
This doctor is an old man with white hair and beard. After checking the pulse and cutting the pulse, he twisted his beard and shook his head.
"You don't seem to be that poor and cold family, how could the patient be so neglected in nursing? This person's old wounds have not healed, and he is burdened with new injuries." The spleen is sad. So now it has two injuries of qi and blood, and all the qi are stagnant. Therefore, the outside is dry, and the yang is depleted, and the inner heat is suppressed. If it wasn't for the good foundation of youth, he would have died a long time ago."
The doctor shook his head, prescribed a prescription, and rambled on the essentials of conditioning before he left.
Zhou Xiaoxiao sent the doctor away and instructed Xiaomei to go to decoction.
But called Yu Tong to the small hall.
Zhou Xiaoxiao sat in front of Yu Tong and tapped the table with her fingertips: "What's going on? What's going on here? When the doctor diagnosed and treated him, you saw that his trauma is more than just a loss of nourishment? It's just letting it go!"
Yu Tong slapped himself and said, "It's all the fault of the slaves. How can you know that the fifth master doesn't take care of himself so far! Since the fifth master was seriously injured in Shu and returned to Beijing, he has a quirk and no longer allows small children They take care of them personally. They change clothes and medicines by themselves, and they never give their hands to others. One day, the boy accidentally overturned the tea and spilled the fifth master's sleeve. He was anxious to clean up for the fifth master, so he just touched the fifth master's hand. Unusually, the fifth master was furious and made a good meal. After that, the younger ones did not dare to go beyond the slightest point. "
He showed a puzzled look: "Not only that, the villain noticed that the fifth master seemed to be extremely repulsive to other people's contact in recent days. Even the unintentional touch of the little skilled brother's jokes can make the fifth master very unhappy. The girl is the fifth master. People who love you dearly, please ask the girl to comfort and enlighten you when you have time, or you may be able to solve the knot in the fifth master's heart."
When Zhou Xiaoxiao heard it, she was very puzzled, and she gradually thought about it.
Yu Xingzhi woke up in a drowsy state, and saw himself lying on a bed in a wing room, with a lamp like a bean in front of the bed, and a person sitting under the lamp, a person he was fascinated by.
When the man saw that he woke up, he leaned on the edge of the bed, holding his white and round face in one hand, and the other hand slowly stretched out in the light and touched his forehead.
Yu Xingzhi felt a burning heat in his chest, which was blocked in his throat and could not be swallowed.
He staggered slightly inward.
"You are so cruel." A soft and waxy voice blamed him.
He couldn't help turning his head immediately. I only saw Zhou Xiaoxiao's white hands resting on the head of the bed, her small chin resting on the back of her hands, her lacquer-like eyes staring at him, and the scattered lights inside shook him, making him obsessed.
Therefore, although he knew that when Zhou Xiaoxiao spoke so softly, there must be some strange idea in his heart, but he still couldn't look away.
"You left me here alone, don't want me anymore, and don't tell me face to face. I heard your second sister-in-law say that you want to marry another girl. I feel very sad."
"NO, I have not."
"Then why did you write that heartless letter to me? After I read it, I hid under the quilt alone and cried for several nights."
"I… "
"If you have anything, tell me clearly, okay?" Zhou Xiaoxiao looked into Yu Xingzhi's eyes and persuaded softly, "For example, you don't like me, or you think I'm too rude and unreasonable with your temperament. I don't get along, or maybe you can't stay with me because of the pressure of your family. As long as you can tell me frankly, I won't be thinking wildly, and I won't feel so uncomfortable. "
Zhou Xiaoxiao waited patiently for a long time, and finally heard Yu Xingzhi's low voice.
"I..." He clenched his fists, his face was bleak, and he said with difficulty, "I am no longer humane."
Zhou Xiaoxiao was completely stunned. She thought about various answers, but heard an unbelievable answer.
"It's impossible, when?" she blurted out.
Yu Xingzhi's face flushed, he closed his eyes and turned his face away.
"Since I fell into the hands of the forest thief, the two of them have treated me so humiliatingly, which is probably the root cause of the disease. After returning to Beijing, I only felt that my emotions were stagnant, I couldn't sleep at night, and my blood was gradually depleted. I hated being close to others. Touching people, men and women alike, made me restless. That day…”
He paused for a moment, then continued.
"That day, in order to cut off the relationship between you and me, my mother instructed a maid in the family to climb into my bed in Chengye... Chengye. I woke up in the middle of the night, facing the nephrite warm fragrance, I just felt that my whole body was standing upside down, nauseated. No. I resisted and vomited the filth all over the bed, and the maid was so frightened that she scrambled to the ground. After that, I was not in danger, and I secretly searched for a doctor and asked for medicine, but there was no curative effect. So even though I swear to you for this life , but can only be ashamed.”
Having said that, Yu Xingzhi couldn't talk anymore, he could only hold his fists tightly, causing pain in his knuckles.
Such a shameful thing, even if I swear to death, I don't want to talk about it in front of my sweetheart. However, now, just for Zhou Xiaoxiao not to feel sad, not to misunderstand and be abandoned for no reason, and thus feel sorry for herself. He endured the humiliation and said it without reservation.
At this moment, he only felt that a sharp blade had cut open his body, holding up all the ugliness inside him in front of others. I just felt dark and gloomy in my heart.
Zhou Xiaoxiao calmed down. She carefully recalled the days when she was on the run. During that time, she took care of Yu Xingzhi, who was inconvenient, changed clothes and medicine, and helped her with defecation. She did not shy away from it. She did not find that "some" aspects of Yu Xingzhi were abnormal, and even a few times, when Yu Xingzhi was still awake, she caught a glimpse of a male's physiological reaction.
"Then did you feel disgusted when I met you?"
"You are naturally... different from others."
Yu Xingzhi thought in frustration: I was able to sleep and sleep soundly when you were by my side. You know that until you and I separated, I never got a good night's sleep. I just hope that you can always be by my side and stay with you all my life. Even if I rebel against my parents and be abandoned by my family, I will not hesitate to do so. I only deeply hate that this body is useless, so even if my heart is like a knife, I can only endure the pain and end my relationship, and I can't burden your life.
However, at this moment, these words can no longer be said, and there is no need to tell her.
Zhou Xiaoxiao was recalling various details. She did not agree with Yu Xingzhi's statement. But she intends to verify it, so she is not in a hurry to distinguish.
"You don't have to be too anxious. It should be a psychological problem, not necessarily a physiological reason."
"… "
Yu Xingzhi felt incomprehensible. But at the moment, his heart is ashes, but he is lazy and thinks too much.
