The man in black and Ziyu were taken aback when they heard Chu Xiang's words, but the movement outside was getting closer and closer, so they couldn't allow them to think too much.
The man in black leaned on the side of the bed and jumped to Chu Xiangli's side. When he actually got on the bed, his movements froze. Without him, the bed in Lenggong is too small, if he wants to hide, he can only cling to Chu Xiang and hide under her quilt, which is too close.
Chu Xiang glanced at him, "Want to be arrested?"
The man in black already regretted it in his heart, he shouldn't have followed this woman to the cold palace. But it was too late to leave at this time, he could only get into the quilt and cling to Chu Xiang tightly.
Chu Xiang smelled a faint smell of blood when he approached, and frowned, "Are you injured?"
"Small injury." The man in black's voice came from under the quilt, a little muffled. Probably hiding in the quilt is very uncomfortable, and words are like gold when speaking.
Chu Xiang thought for a while, lifted the quilt and handed him a veil, "Get some blood from your wound onto the veil, the more the better, hurry up."
The man in black instantly understood what she meant, pulled off his collar and pressed the veil hard on his right shoulder, the plain white veil was immediately stained with a lot of blood.
Chu Xiang took back the veil and leaned against him. There was no distance between them. Ziyu hurriedly covered them with the quilt, tucked it tightly, and then covered them with her own quilt. It's like being alone.
The sound of the door being unlocked came from outside, Ziyu's face turned pale, and she looked outside in bewilderment, "Master..."
"Put a wet handkerchief on my forehead. Remember, I'm dying." Chu Xiang ordered calmly, without any nervousness.
Ziyu collected herself, dipped the handkerchief into the gourd ladle, quickly folded it and placed it on Chu Xiang's forehead. Chu Xiang wiped a little water on his face, clutched a bloody handkerchief over his mouth and coughed weakly. Ziyu was taken aback, and was shocked to find that Chu Xiang was covered in cold sweat, looked haggard, and lacked energy, and looked as if he was about to die!
Ziyu was startled and said: "Master, are you still not feeling well? You have not recovered from a serious illness, so you can't make such a fuss!"
"Go." Chu Xiang whispered a word and coughed again.
Ziyu felt sorry for her master, but she couldn't think of any other way. Tears welled up in her eyes, she turned around and ran out, passed the leading guards, and grabbed the eunuch guarding the cold palace, "Please doctor, I beg you, master, she She has been coughing up blood, she is really dying, I beg you to save her, I will repay you like a cow and a horse... "
The eunuch threw her away fiercely, and she knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and cried: "I beg you, I beg you, please save my master, she has not eaten or drank for two days and two nights. The master is so sick Seriously, I really can't live without a doctor..."
Her behavior annoyed several guards, but subconsciously, she didn't think that the man in black would be here, otherwise the little palace lady shouldn't have reacted like this. But the search still had to be done, the leading guard waved his hand, and the guards broke into the house.
The guard stood at the door and looked around the room, asking other guards to search the cabinet, under the bed, etc., and asked coldly, "Did anyone suspicious come here just now?"
Ziyu shook her head, "No one has come here for two days." She walked eagerly to the bedside, glanced at Chu Xiang, knelt on the ground and cried, "My lords, please, my master coughed for a day and still She coughed up blood, please save her, just let the imperial doctor take a look, please."
With an idea, Ziyu covered her mouth and coughed a few times in a suppressed manner. Everyone who saw this scene thought of one thing, Chu Xiang must not have some terrible infectious disease, right? Several guards moved away from the bed unconsciously, Chu Xiang opened his mouth extremely weakly, "Water..."
Her raised arm fell feebly to the side of the bed, and the handkerchief in her hand fell to the ground, the blood was so glaring.
Ziyu burst into tears, and staggered to take the gourd ladle on the table, "Water, water is here, master." She stopped suddenly, then knelt down and looked at the eunuch, "Give me a few sips of water. The rainwater is very dirty, the master, she drank rainwater and ate weeds these two days, maybe it is because of this that she got sick, please give me some water."
The guard looked at the eunuch, and the eunuch whispered in embarrassment: "Ms. Hui ordered it."
The guards understood that since Concubine Hui wanted Chu Xiang to die, of course they didn't care about anything. Holding the knife, he asked coldly, "Have you searched everything?"
"I searched all over, and there is nothing."
The guard nodded, turned around and left, "Quick, go to the yard in front, the assassin is injured, he can't run far."
Ziyu rushed out to chase them in a hurry, and the gourd and ladle fell to the ground. She shouted: "Don't go, save my master, please, let me go to the imperial doctor, you..."
The door was tightly closed, and she cried and yelled for a long time before she stopped, and hurried back to the room and whispered: "Master, they are gone."
Chu Xiang's hand under the quilt instantly tore off the face scarf of the man in black, lifted the quilt and sat up!
The appearance of the man in black was unexpectedly exposed to Chu Xiang and Ziyu's eyes. He frowned and stood up, "What are you doing?"
"I don't know who you are, how can I ask you to pay back?" Chu Xiang threw the face towel, narrowed his eyes and looked at the man in black, and said coldly, "You are not an assassin sent by the rebel army at all, you are a member of the royal family. Among the imperial family, the only one I have never seen is King Qin who just returned to Beijing from his residence recently. You are King Qin Li Bohan."
"Qin, King Qin?" Ziyu looked at the man in black in surprise, not knowing how to react.
The man in black looked at Chu Xiang expressionlessly, and said in a deep voice, "How did you recognize it?"
Chu Xiang's eyes fell on his face, and he said naturally, "Because I have two points of resemblance to your emperor's eyebrows and eyes. And the rebel army has not yet become a force, if they have the ability to enter and leave the palace, the emperor would have died long ago."
"You are very smart, but if you expose my identity like this, aren't you afraid that I will kill you? After all, only the dead can keep secrets." The man in black took out the dagger and played with it in his hand, still looking at Chu Xiang, as if waiting for her answer.
Ziyu stood by the bed, ready to block the knife for her son at any time, she didn't dare to take a breath, for fear that Li Bohan would really kill him.
Chu Xiang looked at Li Bohan leisurely and said: "Of course you can kill me, but it's meaningless. Since I took the risk to save you today, I won't betray you. It is more beneficial for me that you are the King of Qin. King Qin wears this attire late at night If you enter the palace, you must not be loyal to the emperor."
Chu Xiang paused and said: "It is said that King Qin is even more absurd than the emperor. He has a single-minded head and is born with infinite strength. He is a reckless and reckless man who dares to contradict the emperor. He just met the emperor's appetite and won a lot of rewards." Seeing you today, none of the rumors are likely to be true. King Qin must have plans for this, if you save me, I will convince my father to help you, how about it?"
Li Bohan raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "Are you asking me to save your family as well?" He looked at Chu Xiang's face and said with a smile, "You have a beautiful face, you don't change your mind, you have everyone's demeanor, and you are so miserable You must be Prime Minister Chu's daughter, Concubine Xian."
Chu Xiangdao: "Now I am just an abandoned concubine in the cold palace. My lord, it is not an exaggeration to exchange the lives of me and my family for your life-saving grace? Besides, my father Chu Yiru is a capable minister. With him assisting the lord, The lord must be even more powerful. I believe this is easy for the lord, so why not do it?"
How could it be so easy to take Chu Xiang out of the palace to save the prime minister? It's so easy, he won't get hurt today and almost got caught.
But it's not impossible, Li Bohan didn't refuse outright, but seriously thought about the possibility. It's not that he never thought of recruiting Chu Yiru, but Chu Yiru is very loyal and patriotic, so it's not easy to recruit. Now that Chu Xiang is the lobbyist, he can give it a try.
Seeing his wavering, Chu Xiang got down and said, "My lord, let Ziyu bandage you up. No one will come here. After the search just now, there will be no more accidents. Your lord can rest at ease."
Hearing this, Ziyu found a dry handkerchief, Li Bohan moved to the side of the bed, tore off his clothes, revealing half of his body. There was an arrow wound on the shoulder, but luckily it just passed by and didn't penetrate into the flesh, so it wasn't serious.
After Ziyu knew that this person was the King of Qin, she became cautious in her actions. Especially since King Qin might rescue them, her attitude became very respectful.
Li Bohan glanced at her, and said to Chu Xiang: "You are a court lady who is loyal to you, and you performed well in front of those people just now."
Empress Ziyu looked at Chu Xiang in fear, "Your acting is good, master, just now your appearance really scared the slaves to death. Your illness is just getting better, is there any discomfort?"
Chu Xiang sat on the small wooden stool and shook his head, "I'm just pretending, it's fine."
Ziyu was still worried, and looked at Chu Xiang from time to time while bandaging. Li Bohan looked at Chu Xiang in surprise, and said with a half-smile: "It turns out that Concubine Xian is a master of acting. I really didn't expect Prime Minister Chu to have such a daughter."
"My lord's prize is nothing compared to my lord's deceit to the world." Chu Xiang was a little hungry, seeing a few fruits left on the table, he walked over and took one and ate it.
Li Bohan asked in puzzlement: "With your intelligence, you should be able to coax my nephew. How could you be thrown into the cold palace and hurt your family?"
Chu Xiang asked casually, "Why should I coax him? Competing with that Huiyun all day long, only to smile for Mr. Bohun?"
Li Bohan was speechless for a while, why did he coax the emperor? Don't all the concubines in the harem compete for favor with the emperor? Could it be that he would rather die the whole family than let go of his figure? Li Bohan thought of the encounter with Chu Xiang, and thought of Chu Xiang's informal behavior, he denied this idea in his heart, and guessed: "If the king doesn't come today, you will find another way to escape from the palace and save Prime Minister Chu?"
"Of course." Chu Xiang replied without hesitation. Seeing that Ziyu had finished bandaging, she gave Ziyu the remaining three fruits, "Eat some to fill your belly, we will roast that pigeon tomorrow."
Li Bohan felt that she really didn't take him seriously, she was not at all restrained in front of him. She is obviously waiting for him to save her right now, but she doesn't seem to care whether he saves her or not. Could it be that she can really find another way to escape
Li Bohan put on his clothes and lay down, but as soon as he touched the pillow, he could smell the strong musty smell on the quilt next to him. He frowned and sat up again. There was obviously no musty smell when he was hiding under the quilt.
His eyes fell on Chu Xiang, thinking that he was hiding close to Chu Xiang, and the only thing he could smell was the fragrance of Chu Xiang, he felt a little uncomfortable for no reason, he had never been so close to a woman before. This Chu Xiang didn't feel uncomfortable at all, she didn't dodge when he bandaged her, she really wasn't an ordinary woman.
