Ma understands human nature, and with Shen on his back, he just spreads his hooves and runs, rolling up a snowflake.
Layers of palaces and towers were filled with pavilions, and in a blink of an eye, they were out of sight of outsiders. Lu Chengru picked up the man without saying a word, and galloped with one arm on his horse. He threw off the straps that had hung his arm, and tightly protected Gu Ai with his free hand.
Dang Chao Shoufu, who has been studying poetry and books since childhood, was the first time someone led him to run wildly. Gu Ai was still pinpointed and speechless. He opened and closed his mouth, quietly listening to the voice in his ear. Chilling wind.
Lu Chengru's arm always protected him firmly.
The young prince's body was much hotter than the wind in the snow, his chest was pressed against his back, as if he was pouring a heart that was kneeling coldly on the steps into his blood, burning his blood to the point of boiling. An unfamiliar scald.
Lu Chengru rode his horse with him, passed the vermilion high wall, passed the overlapping palace eaves, and finally reined in the familiar deserted palace garden.
The servants seem to have long been familiar with the publicity of the prince's horse back to the mansion. Today, there are more people who don't dare to feel strange. They waited and greeted in a hurry, and there was a rare excitement in the hustle and bustle.
The hot water is ready, the cold soup is boiled and put on the table, the clean clothes are warmed on the stove, and the kitchen is busy with meals.
Lu Chengru ignored the busy servants, carried Gu Ai all the way into the room, and placed them on the warm couch in the bedroom.
Gu Ai: …
That day in Guozijian, he had the idea of going under the rockery and forcibly taking the little prince back to the house.
Being carried and thrown all the way, Gu Ai had gotten used to it somewhat. Gu Ai sat firmly on the edge of the couch, and was about to motion for him to help her unblock her dumb hole, but Lu Chengru had already half-kneeled.
The little prince has been carefully nurtured these days, and his originally thin cheeks have been slightly more fleshy, making him look more like a teenager in line with his age. It's just that his hair was messed up by the wind, his face was still pale, and the bandages hanging his arms had been thrown somewhere long ago, which made people feel panicked when they looked at them.
Lu Chengru lowered his head without saying a word, and firmly pressed him with one hand to prevent him from moving. He lifted the hem of his clothes and rolled up his trousers. He soaked the handkerchief in the hot water brought by the servants, and carefully put the faintly bruised on him. knee.
The cool sharp edge in those eyes dimmed early, leaving only the quiet dodging dodging.
Being attracted by those eyes, her chest became heavy, Gu Ai frowned, and raised her hand to support his shoulder, but it was empty.
Gu Ai was slightly startled and looked down.
The little prince is still holding his face hard, and his shoulders, which have been better nourished these days, are tense. He clearly looked like he was ready to be disciplined at any time, but he still had to grit his teeth and fight for that breath, his neck and back straightened, and he closed his eyes and never bowed his head to the evil forces that wanted to teach him a lesson and force him to study.
Gu Ai was dumbfounded, she leaned over and pulled him with a chuckle, pulled the person into her arms, put her hand on the back of the little prince's neck soothingly, and massaged it slowly in a circular motion.
Lu Deng raised his face and opened his eyes carefully.
It was the first time he was so disobedient.
It's not that such a character has never been acted in the last world, but at that time, no matter what, I knew it was just acting, and when I heard the director shouting "ka", even if the acting was over, there was naturally nothing to worry about.
But this time, no one called him "card".
The character design is arrogant and domineering, and the scene just now actually received a 5-point evaluation score. He is not worried that those father-in-law and guards will go to the emperor to speak ill of him, and he is not afraid that the emperor will know and hate him. The performance of the present will directly determine the situation in the future, and these little things do not matter.
He was only worried that Gu Ai would be angry with him.
If Gu Ai is also angry with him, and doesn't think he is a good boy, he will keep his current character, relying on his reputation for being unreasonable and domineering, to make a way for the other party.
Also worth it.
Gu Ai rubbed his head, blinked, pointed to her throat, and gestured towards him.
Lu Deng slowly widened his eyes, his face flushed red.
The little prince, who had completely forgotten that he had tapped the other's dumb acupoint, was in a hurry, slipped down from his embrace, and raised his hand to relieve Gu Ai's acupoint. With his head sullen, he was about to go up the tree, but Gu Ai quickly grabbed his hand: "I heard that the lord holds grudges and wants to take revenge on me?"
Lu Deng: …
Lu Deng didn't dare to move, he stopped and moved back to the side of the bed following his strength.
I have never seen the little prince so obedient before, Gu Ai couldn't help laughing more and more, and coughed lightly: "Take care of yourselves?"
Lu Deng: …
The little prince's face was so hot that he could boil an egg. For the first time, the always serious and rigid Xiangye found fun in this kind of thing and looked at him with a smile: "Don't you like to read?"
Lu Deng: ...
It's true that I don't like reading.
He has never lied, and he can deny what he asked just now, but at this time, he didn't know what to say at all. He was so anxious that it turned red from the tip of his ear all the way to his collar, and lowered his head: "Gu, Master Gu..."
Before he finished speaking, he was slapped lightly on the top of his head.
Lu Deng was taken aback, instinctively raised his head, and met the serious look of the chief assistant of the dynasty, who was not serious at all: "What do you call me?"
The strength on his head is not painful at all, his tone is not fierce, and even the cold look on his face is not scary at all.
Lu Deng raised his head to look at him, the corners of his lips raised a little bit, and he looked at Gu Ai with a cold expression, he couldn't help but curl his eyebrows and let out a smile.
Gu Ai was still planning to scare him again, but she herself laughed and raised her hand to pull him to sit down, but suddenly there was a throbbing pain in her waist, she couldn't help clenching her teeth and taking a breath.
"gentlemen!"
Lu Deng's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly went to help him: "What's wrong? I forgot that my husband is a scholar, so I forgot to use my strength at that time..."
"It's okay, sit with you for a while."
Because the young apprentice who was picked up was carried and thrown onto the horse and stretched his waist is absolutely impossible to say. Gu Ai spoke calmly, concealed the past without a trace, and led him to sit on the couch.
The little prince disappeared at all, so he sat down obediently with his strength, raised his head obediently, blinked his eyes and waited for him to speak.
"I originally wanted to train you."
Seeing him like this, Gu Ai's heart softened completely, she untied her belt and hung her arms thinly for him again, sighed softly and tapped his forehead: "Why are you so impulsive? Even though you helped me out like this, you know how much criticism and guidance you will suffer..."
"Then let them criticize and give pointers."
Lu Chengru interrupted him, pursed his lips and lowered his head. After a moment of silence, he jumped off the couch again, supported him against the couch, and continued to soak his knees with a veil soaked in hot water: "I heard - the elders said, kneel. People will get hurt in the long run."
Gu Ai was slightly startled and lowered her head to look at him.
"My leg hurts. It hurts every winter. When the pain is so bad, I can't stand up."
Lu Deng lowered his head and threw the handkerchief. The hot hot water made the back of his hand turn red, but he was still very careful, as if he was doing something that should not be sloppy.
"If you kneel for a long time, even people will be hurt, and the ambition will be destroyed, and that person will also be half dead. The only thing alive is a wandering soul, just relying on Yu Xi to support, still doing what he should Then maybe one day, when the time is right, I will hand over my entire life to someone else, Min'an Guotai Haiyan Heqing."
Gu Ai's heart beat a little faster, and the hands hanging down her sleeves clenched subconsciously.
The little prince put on both legs for him, squatted on the edge of the couch and raised his head: "Is Mr. also waiting for that day?"
The black eyes are clear and straight into the heart.
Gu Ai held her breath subconsciously and opened her mouth to speak, but she didn't know how to speak. She just stared at him with a soft voice: "Chengru..."
"When I listened to this story, I was thinking... If someone rushes to stop me while I'm kneeling, someone stays by the side, and someone supports and accompanies me to walk down together, would it be better than one person doing their best, People are suffering every day, and it is better to die alone."
Lu Chengru shook his head, didn't look at him again, the corners of his lips curled up meekly and quietly, got up and walked out with the water in his hand: "Mr. Ambition, I don't dare to stop him, but I don't want Mister alone."
Gu Ai sat quietly for a long time, looked up at him, and slowly closed her eyes.
The young prince's shoulders and backs sharpened into swords that were drawn together.
Gu Ai was detained in Prince Yi's Mansion.
The emperor still adhered to the cowardly and fearful character, and he also assumed a helpless and weak posture towards this little uncle. The first assistant who went away found the idea of returning.
In the evening of the same day, several imperial physicians were sent to the gate of Prince Yi's Mansion.
The door opened this time, and Lu Chengru personally greeted them, welcoming the imperial physicians into the mansion politely.
The imperial hospital was indifferent to the world on weekdays. One day, the little prince who drank the medicine obediently left a good impression on the imperial physicians. No one would have imagined that he would be a master who could rob people back to the palace without saying a word. I was a little nervous when I came to Taiyi, for fear that if I was not careful, I would be detained by this little uncle who was afraid of the emperor in Yi Wangfu.
The eldest old doctor was knowledgeable and knowledgeable. He only said that he had already guessed the follow-up after seeing Gu Xiangye send him over that day. He was the only one who was not surprised. Xiao Yinyin entered the palace with the little prince who was said to be arrogant and domineering at every turn with a whip to hurt people, and ran out to ride horses while talking about his shoulders with his hands behind his back.
The little prince actually bowed his head obediently and admitted his mistake.
The imperial physicians felt even more frightening.
Xiangye, who was under house arrest, was fine. Although his knees were stagnant with blood, he was carried back in time, so he was not injured any more, and he would not suffer any problems. The little prince's arm has also improved a lot. Although the horse and whip have been tossed for a while, there is no more misalignment and serious injury, but the splint is a little out of alignment, and it will be fine if it is adjusted again.
The old doctor had been properly treated, and was packing up and preparing to leave, when Gu Ai raised his hand and stopped him: "Old Ge stay."
Seeing that the first assistant of the dynasty seemed to have something to hide, the old doctor raised his gray eyebrows and threw the rest of the people out. He smiled and went back to the couch: "What else is there to do, Mr. Xiang? Why don't you just say it..."
The old doctor was personally invited back by Gu Ai. Before entering the palace, he traveled all over the place. I don't know how many strange things I saw, and I don't know what strange things I saw more than ordinary people. When Gu Ai saw him, she became sullen, but she was still reluctantly reluctant, and said in a low voice: "Old Ge has a way to treat his waist? Before going down, I was careless-"
"Master Xiang's waist won't work?"
The old doctor twisted his beard in surprise, Gu Ai's back tightened, but he had to bite the bullet and nodded, reluctantly explained in a low voice: "The young prince is so good, Gu Aili is not good..."
…
The old doctor's eyes widened.
After more than half an hour, the old doctor left a stack of thick recipes to Gu Ai, repeatedly instructing him to decoct every day after returning to the residence.
Seeing that what he said was serious, Gu Ai had no choice but to half-believe and tuck it into her sleeve. Seeing that he was pulled to the waist during his movements, the old doctor couldn't help but suck in the cold air, and couldn't help but sighed: "It seems that the little prince is really sincere..."
"The little prince has always been a very good boy."
Gu Ai likes to hear people compliment Lu Chengru, she smiles when she hears this, and her eyes are also bright: "It's the best I've ever seen... He has a pure and kind heart and good talent. It just looks extra stubborn, but in fact, he is more stubborn than anyone else. They are all shy and obedient, and they have to be carefully looked after..."
"Stop, it's Master Xiang's business."
The old doctor didn't intend to listen to his nagging. He waved his hand and picked up the medicine box and got up: "Master Xiang's people, Master Xiang doesn't take care of him. What's the use of telling others?"
Gu Ai was startled, and subconsciously stopped.
"I once saw a horse in the wild. It was alone and did not follow the group of horses, but it ran faster than the group of horses. It was so thin that the bones came out, and it never gave in to fights."
The old doctor lowered his head and sorted out the medicine box, and continued calmly: "Then there was a horse trainer who fed him. He mowed the best grass all day to feed him, brushed his hair and bathed him, and ate and slept with him. The horses are so fat, strong, oily and slippery, that they are saddled and can fly over a person's head with one tug of the rein, and can kick over a hyena with one foot."
Gu Ai listened attentively, the old doctor twisted his beard, and covered the medicine box: "But later, the court came to recruit soldiers, and the horse trainer was reluctant to take it to the battlefield to die, so he untied the rope and told it to run away."
He stopped talking here, Gu Ai's heart sank slightly, she frowned and straightened up a little: "Then what? What happened to the horse - can it run away?"
"Horse? After looking for someone for three days, I couldn't find it. I found a cliff and jumped off."
The old doctor laughed, patted the floating soil on the medicine box, and glanced at Gu Ai meaningfully: "You see him living in a state of unhappiness and suffering, you can't bear it, take him home and take good care of him... This is nothing more than a human being. There is nothing wrong with it.”
Gu Ai took a breath and looked up.
Lu Chengru stood at the door at some point, holding the medicine that Gu Ai had prepared, and quietly looked inside, not knowing whether he heard the conversation in the room or not.
The old doctor walked out carrying the medicine box, smiled at Lu Chengru, took out a packet of licorice candy and stuffed it for him, and patted the uninjured shoulder of the little prince.
"But you've already domesticated him - he's already sensible, can carry you around, can help you kick hyenas and wolves, and your eyes are full of you. As a result, you don't even want to accompany you on adventures. , I don’t ask if I want to live and die together, and I don’t even look for a way to escape the danger, just wave my hand and I don’t want it.”
"Where in the world does such a good thing come from?"
Gu Ai leaned on the couch in a daze, and the pain that she had deliberately ignored quickly spread from her heart.
The old doctor ignored him, pulling Lu Chengru to lower his voice and babble, and from time to time a few voices like "Master Xiang is weak", "restraint", "can't be bad at the waist".
Gu Ai listened anxiously, gritted her teeth and propped herself up, moving to stay, but Lu Chengru caught sight of him and flew over to support him: "Sir!"
The young prince held him tightly, his eyes full of nervous concern.
Gu Ai looked down at him, the pain in her chest was getting worse, but she still tried to give him a gentle look, took the medicine and put it aside, and gently rubbed the top of the little prince's head.
The old doctor retired, smiled and nodded at him, walked away, and closed the door for the two of them.
When Lu Chengru was touched by his palm, his brows softened, and the bottom of his pure black eyes seemed to be sprinkled with bright stars, and he raised his head and raised his lips.
Gu Ai's heart suddenly felt as if a thick fog had been thrown away, and she lowered her eyes and smiled at him. She stretched her arms around the thin shoulders of the little prince, and pulled it into her arms: "Sir, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Lu Cheng really only came to the door. He couldn't understand what the old doctor said just now, the hyena and the wolf, and blinked his eyes blankly and raised his head. Gu Ai just smiled at him and slowly tightened her arms: "Sir may be a little busy recently. If you don't have time to take care of your homework, remember to study more by yourself. In the evening, Mr. will definitely accompany you..."
He has already made plans for the future, and it will be far more difficult to survive.
It’s not a dead end yet. If you want to find a turning point, you have to work harder and pave a few more roads.
At night, the palace brought the cooked dumplings up.
After all, today is Shangyuan Festival, even if you can't go to the street to enjoy the lanterns and go around the market because of an accident, you still have to eat glutinous rice balls.
I don't know if I forgot or deliberately demonstrated, but the dumplings in the palace were not delivered, they were made by the palace themselves. The fat and soft glutinous dumpling floats and sinks in the black bowl, stir gently with a spoon, the fully cooked dumpling will burst into a small hole, and the delicate and sweet sesame seeds flow out, blow a few mouthfuls with the soup, and then He swallowed it warmly, and he couldn't help but smile.
Lu Deng has always been happy as long as he is with his lover, and he doesn't care that no one accompanies him to the market to see the lanterns, holding a bowl and eating to his heart's content. Gu Ai felt apologetic, and secretly vowed to take him out to enjoy the scenery next year. When she turned back, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Chengru, sir, I will cook you a dish."
After the acupuncture and moxibustion medicine applied to his legs, the congestion had long since dissipated, and it was okay to walk down. The old doctor ordered to exercise more, Lu Chengru blinked, hesitantly got up and walked away: "Does your leg still hurt, sir?"
"The pain is gone, the imperial doctor said, thanks to the timely return."
Gu Ai smiled, rubbed his hair, stood up and slowly moved his legs and feet: "This glutinous rice ball can also be fried and eaten. When I was studying, I accidentally saw someone make it..."
The little prince was raised in the deep palace, and probably had never eaten such a folk snack. Looking at the instantly lit black eyes, Gu Ai raised the corners of her lips and tapped the top of his head with her fingers: "Go to study, I'll give it to you when it's done."
When reading, there are fried dumplings to eat.
Lu Deng nodded happily, turned around and ran back, flipped out the book and looked at it seriously, Gu Ai smiled at him for a while, and then walked over to the kitchen.
Today's drama also consumed a lot of energy, and I felt a little sleepy after eating. Lu Deng was dozing while flipping through the book, when he suddenly heard someone report that the third prince had been ordered by the emperor to inspect the wound.
Hearing that it was the third prince, Lu Deng couldn't help but be slightly surprised, he stood up a little and sat up straight: "Please come in."
In terms of age, the third prince is older than him. Not long after he reached the crown, he was sent by the emperor to work below. I just came back today, and I took on this errand that was destined to be angry no matter what.
The eldest prince is born, the prince is the eldest son, the third prince is not the first, but he is the protagonist of this time. As the plot continues to develop, the prince will go astray because of the temptation, and the differences with the emperor will deepen. The rest of the princes have long been abandoned by the emperor. When they thought that no one could succeed, the third prince suddenly emerged and became the new heir, and finally inherited the throne.
The emperor's talent is really mean and unkind, except for the prince, there is not much father-son affection for the other princes. The third prince has been suppressed and excluded since he was a child. If he hadn't been strong, diligent, and hardworking, he would have been out of luck, and he would not have the slightest affection for the emperor.
As long as the protagonist successfully inherits the throne, the plot line will not be considered to have changed too much...
Lu Deng pondered, and sent someone to report a letter to Gu Ai, who then welcomed the third prince who was said to be "warm and indifferent" and "free and easy".
The third prince, Lu Liang, rushed all the way back to the capital, and before he even sat down, he received the order to come to this little uncle's mansion for inspection. Only after entering the door and saluting and sitting down, Gu Ai just happened to bring the golden, crispy and fragrant fried dumplings into the study.
