Ananda walked slowly on the winter streets of Tongcheng, and there were not many passers-by. The snow has just stopped. At this time, most people would rather stay at home and warm up by the fire than go out to wander around and enjoy the cold wind.
A gust of north wind whizzed by, Ananda was blown cold, and immediately sneezed, and his apple face was flushed red.
"Princess, it's getting dark, let's go back quickly." Seeing Ananda shrinking her neck, Rulan was really worried that she would get sick from the cold.
"Yes, yes, if Miss is sick, the prince will feel distressed." Ru Cui continued.
Ananda was sobered up by the gust of wind, and when he heard the words of the two maids, he felt a little funny at the moment, laughing that he was surrounded by Wen Liang's cunning fox, and thought wildly for a while, if Her lord knows that he has struggled with this kind of thing, so he wonders if he will be angry
Anan thought that Chu Baning's serious temper became angry, and he was going to be in bad luck, so he shivered involuntarily, and hurriedly drove the thoughts out of his mind.
Seeing that the sky was gloomy and it looked as if it was going to snow again, Ananda hurried back home.
Sure enough, as soon as he returned to the mansion, it began to snow.
Ananda exhaled into his hands, stomped his feet and walked towards the main room. Just as he opened the curtain and entered the door, a gust of hot air rushed towards his face, which formed a stark contrast with the cold air outside. In an instant, his eyes were blurred by the hot air. of fog.
"came back?"
A deep male baritone sounded, and Ananda blinked away the mist in his eyes, and saw Chu Baning sitting on the pit. There was a chessboard on the small table in the middle of the pit. There were black and white pieces on the chessboard. It was obviously Chu Baning alone. People play chess with themselves.
But at this time, the man with noble temperament and Yongzheng stared at him with a pair of deep eyes. For some reason, Ananda suddenly shuddered.
Obviously it was to keep him from thinking wildly, but as soon as he saw the man sitting there quietly and was swept away by those sharp eyes, he couldn't help but think of the gentle words again, and Ananda suddenly felt afraid to meet those quiet eyes. The feeling of looking at each other, I just felt my heart tremble, and I avoided his sight.
Chu Baning paused slightly for the hand holding on to the chess piece, but he didn't say anything, but looked at Ananda with a pair of eyes probing.
"My lord, I'm back."
Ananda seemed to be talking casually, and then, with his back on his back, went into the inner room to change the snow-stained clothes on her body. Walking all the way, I don't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that the line of sight behind her was pervasive. A feeling of probing almost made her run away from the door.
After Ananda changed his clothes, he hid in the inner room, not knowing whether to go out or not.
She was frightened by Wen Liang's alarmist talk, her own wild thoughts, and the prince's eyes. She thought of Wen Liang's words over and over again in her mind, and then her hands and feet turned cold. She remembered that she had confessed to him... What was the reaction? She remembered that she seemed dizzy from being kissed by him at that time, and she didn't have time to look at his expression carefully, nor explore the feeling in his heart.
He... shouldn't feel disgusted and dirty about her liking, right
Ananda felt that in the future, he might not be able to express his feelings easily.
After about ten minutes, Ananda slowly moved out of the inner room.
Chu Baning looked up at her and motioned for her to come over. Ananda had a ghost in his heart, and slowly rubbed over, and then found that his cold hands were wrapped by his warm and dry hands. He was warming her hands, and this realization made Ananda's heart uncontrollably sweet, and he couldn't help but look up at him. When Ananda saw his frown, his heart trembled, and he subconsciously wanted to say that it was nothing. She was strong enough to knock down a little white rabbit, but when she sneezed uncontrollably, Chu Baning's expression changed.
"Go and ask the kitchen staff to cook a bowl of ginger soup." Chu Baning ordered Ru Lan who was on the side.
Ru Lan responded and was about to go down when Ananda remembered the two packs of tofu nao and hurriedly asked Ru Lan to bring them to her.
Anan was very afraid that Chu Baning would be fed ginger soup, so he couldn't help but look at Chu Baning obsequiously, and said, "My lord, I found a very delicious tofu nao today, even Lord Wen loves it." I want to eat it, and I want the prince to taste it together, so I asked someone to pack two servings back." Ananda said flatteringly, and presented the tofu nao.
But maybe even the gods don't care about her, an unqualified time-traveling girl, the two tofu brains have cooled down on the way she spent two quarters of an hour walking back to the palace. It looked like it was frozen, and the tofu brain inside was broken into pieces, so it looked unpalatable.
Anan's face was bitter, and facing Chu Baning's serious expression, he stammered and explained: "This...maybe it was blown to pieces by the strong wind on the way back..."
Ananda was about to burst into tears: tat, lord, please raise your eyes high, don't stare at us anymore, it's really embarrassing!
Chu Baning glanced at the two portions of tofu nao with disgust, and regardless of whether it was the wish of his little wife who brought it back specially, he directly asked someone to come in and throw it away. Then when the maid brought ginger soup, he ignored Ananda's bitter expression, brought it to her lips, and watched her drink the bowl of ginger soup without any leftovers.
Ananda felt nauseous, she hated the spicy taste of ginger juice the most, but there was a bully prince watching in front of her, and she didn't even allow a drop. At the end of the drink, Ananda gritted his teeth on purpose, knocked his mouth against the edge of the bowl, and some ginger juice leaked down the corner of his lips.
Ananda was about to take out a handkerchief to try it off, but Chu Baning pinched her chin, lifted her face, leaned down and covered it with warm thin lips, and wiped the corners of her lips. The juice is licked away one by one.
Ananda was almost flustered by the wind, and he could even clearly feel his slippery tongue gently licking the corners of her lips, and after licking off the slipping ginger juice, he moved his lips to hers, He kissed it hard. Ananda's tongue hurt from being sucked by him, and her brain was also dizzy. When she woke up, she found herself hugging him and responding to his kiss...
"My lord..."
Ananda struggled for a while before Chu Baning let her go. Chu Ba Ning hugged Ananda and sat on the pit, rubbed her still cold face, and said casually, "Where did you go today? But did you meet Zixiu?"
Ananda raised her eyes and glanced at her prince, with a serious look on her face, she really didn't know what he wanted to ask, so she honestly reported her today's itinerary. Of course, she would not be so stupid as to report the conversation inside.
Chu Baning didn't say anything after hearing this, but asked suspiciously: "Did Zixiu say nothing?"
Ananda was about to bite the handkerchief, and really wanted to ask: My lord, what do you mean by that? Did you send someone to watch over us? Or are you really smart enough to know what Wen Liang's not-so-gentle boy said that shouldn't be said
"No, Master Wen left after eating five bowls of tofu with a big appetite." Ananda's eyes flickered, and he finally decided not to say anything.
In this way, Chu Baning didn't say anything more.
************
After dinner, because it was snowing outside and there was nothing to entertain at night, Chu Baning brought the chessboard and asked, "Ananda, can you play chess?"
Ananda rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Of course I will." The noble girls in the capital have dabbled in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It can be said that they are not good at it, but they must not be said that they can't, otherwise they will be ridiculed.
Seeing that the prince wanted her to play chess with him, Ananda was overjoyed, and went to let Rucui Rulan come in with water and incense. She wanted to wash her hands and burn incense to play chess with the prince.
Of course, Chu Baning's eyes widened slightly with someone's behavior, while Rulan Rucui looked extremely ashamed.
Rucui Rulan heard that the prince was going to play chess with Ananda, and instantly looked at him with admiration and awe. Seeing Ananda's high spirits, they couldn't tell the prince, you might find something for yourself next. There is a problem. Because, Ananda is a typical stinky chess piece!
"My lord, I'm not very good at chess, please let me be the third son first." Ananda said shyly.
Chu Baning smiled, nodded, and gave way to the third son very gentlemanly.
The snow fell silently, and there were snowflakes flying outside, which reminded Ananda of the Christmas that was celebrated every year in her previous life. After coming to this world, the solar calendar became a lunar calendar, and there was no longer the Western method of counting days. She didn't know Which day is Christmas, which day is New Year's Day. However, the New Year in this world is very similar to the Spring Festival in the previous life, and the 24 solar terms are also the same...
"No more!"
When Ananda was contemplating on a chess piece, he suddenly heard a cold snort, and saw the prince directly throwing the chess piece in his hand into the frame.
Ananda looked at him blankly, wondering why he didn't leave, and judging by his expression, he couldn't be angry, right
Seeing Ananda's innocent appearance, Chu Baning felt amused and angry. He now understood why the two maids looked in awe and admiration just now. Playing chess with a stinky chess piece is really a test for a person The stamina and mentality, because every step she takes is stinky chess, and the stomach is full of stinky chess, which makes people very annoying and feels that playing chess is extremely strenuous. However, she herself hadn't realized it yet, and she was very keen on playing chess, something that tested her brain, so Chu Baning was a cup.
Chu Baning thought about being aggrieved by someone's stinky chess when playing chess just now, so he couldn't help reaching out and pinching her face to vent his anger, but when he touched it, he couldn't help being a little surprised.
Ananda looked at him with some puzzlement. While she was still in a daze, Chu Baning got up suddenly, then picked her up and carried her directly to the bed. Ananda's body soared into the air, and he felt a little dizzy. He hugged his neck with both hands and struggled to get up. Ah Nan was a little nervous about what he was going to do, but Chu Baning just stuffed her into the bed, and then raised his voice to call Ru Lan in.
"My lord, what's the matter?" Ru Lan asked a little nervously, because of Chu Baning's obsession with cleanliness, he didn't like maids coming in, and usually let them wait outside.
"Go ask Doctor Gu to come here." Chu Baning said, "The princess is sick."
Ru Lan's complexion changed, and she didn't care about saluting, and ran out directly.
Ananda lay on the bed, feeling dizzy, but he felt good about himself, and didn't feel sick at all. However, Chu Baning's face was cold and serious, and he looked at her quietly with a pair of eyes, which made her feel hairy, so he had to lie obediently in the bed, not daring to do it again.
After a while, Dr. Gu was dragged over by Rulan Rucui.
Doctor Gu heard that Ananda was sick, and he didn't think it was disobedient to see such things as birth, old age, sickness and death after staying in the border town for many years. The wind and snow outside was even more chilly, Dr. Gu almost kneeled down to this master.
"Doctor Gu, the concubine may have contracted the cold, please come and take a look." Chu Baning said, and glanced at the maid.
Rucui swiftly covered Ananda's wrist with a piece of white silk, and then Dr. Gu stepped forward to apologize and gave Ananda a pulse. After taking the pulse, Dr. Gu said to Chu Baning: "Princess feels a little cold, and may have some fever. After the old man prescribes some medicine and drinks it, it will be fine to have a rest tonight and sweat."
Chu Baning nodded, and asked someone to fetch paper and ink to prescribe medicine for Dr. Gu, while he was sitting in front of the bed, looking at Ananda with a pair of cold and cold eyes.
Ananda huddled under the quilt and shivered, wanting to say that she was actually not frozen by the wind and snow outside, but by her master.
After Dr. Gu prescribed the medicine and handed it to the maid to pick it up, he left. Fortunately, because Chu Baning was injured a month ago, the mansion set up a medicine storehouse for the convenience of taking care of him, so there is no need to go to the pharmacy outside to get medicine.
Soon, the decoction was ready and delivered, Chu Baning tested the temperature, grabbed Ananda and poured the medicine.
Ananda felt that today must be her unlucky day. Not only was she frightened by Wen Liang's bad military adviser, but she was caught in the wind and cold because of restlessness on the way back.
The little person in Ananda's heart was frustrated and bent forward: she was wrong, she shouldn't have gloated about the prince's drinking of medicine before, God is really fair...
At night, Ananda really broke out in sweat, and his whole body was wet.
Chu Baning hugged her, and felt that her hands and feet were very restless, moving around, and accidentally rubbed against some sensitive places, which really made men love and hate.
Ananda felt that his whole body was uncomfortable, wet and sticky, his head was dizzy, his brain seemed to be pressed by a big stone, it was dull and painful, his whole body was tired and hot, and it was difficult to find a comfortable place to lie down after tossing and turning. . It wasn't until I felt that the wet clothes on my body were taken off, and I was lying in a clean and warm bed, that I felt better.
Ananda turned over and rubbed the smooth, dry and warm quilt with her body. She felt a strange tingling sensation from the friction between her skin and the quilt, which made her rub a few more times. Then, she felt It felt very uncomfortable to be pressed against a hard and hot thing between the buttocks, and I couldn't help but want to push it away with my hands...
"do not move… "
A hoarse and deep voice sounded in her ears, with a taste of trying to bear it, and the scorching breath that she exhaled sprayed over her ears, making her feel a little uncomfortable. Then her hands were grabbed, and her whole body was tightly held in his arms, her body was tightly pressed together, and her legs were also pressed down by a strong leg, making her unable to move. .
Ananda was trapped uncomfortably, feeling hot all over her body, and wanted to kick away what was trapping her, but her legs were pressed down, and her hands were also trapped by her sides, so she didn't have the slightest strength to lift herself up. When people are sleepy, they will always have a strange daydream, thinking that they are in a dream, trying to resist the things that restrain them.
Ananda struggled for a while, but felt like a salted fish lying on the beach, unable to resist at all, so he could only open his eyes in a daze. Just dreaming. Because of her illness, a palace lantern was lit in the room, and the light of the fire swayed in the night wind, causing the things in the room to cast shadows that flickered, dimmed, long and short.
Ananda had the feeling of not knowing what Jinxi was and what Xi was. He just felt dizzy. He raised his hand and touched a piece of smooth and delicate skin. .
"Are you awake? Is there something wrong?" A familiar voice sounded, with concern and forbearance.
Ananda looked at him blankly, "...I want to drink water..."
The man sat up, under the candlelight, his tall back was as steady as a mountain, which gave her a sense of peace of mind.
Handing a glass of water to her lips, Ananda slowly sat up and took Gulu Gulu and drank it herself. After drinking, she found that the person beside the bed was staring at her intently. It was cool and cool, and when I looked down, I found that the body was not wearing any clothes, and the quilt was only dangerously covering the chest, revealing most of the breasts.
Even though his mind was still confused, he knew that it was impossible for him to do this at this time, Ananda quickly fell on the bed and wrapped himself tightly with the quilt. Because of this movement, his head became dizzy even more, and he couldn't recover for a long time, so he could only lie down and lift his corpse.
After a while, the quilt was lifted, and she quickly fell into a smooth embrace. Ananda was horrified to find that not only was he naked, but the person holding him was also naked.
Ananda's body froze, he was really not used to them like this, but his head was tired, sleepy, aching and dizzy, and he couldn't produce any strength to resist, so he could only lie in the man's arms meekly, allowing him to do anything to him.
Chu Baning hugged her tightly into his arms, kissed her face that was still hot, and stroked her back with his big hands. Chu Baning saw the person in his arms start to squint dizzily again , his eyes were serene, and suddenly he leaned close to her ear, and the soft baritone sounded bewitchingly.
"...Ananda, what did Zixiu say to you during the day?"
Listening to the inducing voice, I couldn't help but think of the smile that stretched the brows and eyes of that magnificent man during the day, and then a very horrifying sentence. Ananda's mind was extremely confused at this time, but Wen Liang's words were pressed in his heart, feeling more and more real.
"Go on, I'm listening..."
"... a court lady likes... beat to death... is it really a dirty thing to like?" Ananda asked a little confused, "If I like him too, is it really dirty?" I don't know if it's because of illness Because of this, her spirit is relatively fragile, so that the corners of her eyes slowly filled with moisture, and tears fell one by one...
Because she felt that she already liked that person very much...
