Gu Jiao came out of Renshou Palace, and happened to meet Yu Jin, who had asked Empress Xiao to be safe.
"Aunt Yujin." Gu Jiao greeted her.
Yu Jin smiled in surprise: "It's Doctor Gu, are you visiting the Queen Mother in the palace?"
Since Princess Xinyang has investigated Gu Jiao, it is impossible not to know her relationship with Empress Dowager Zhuang.
Gu Jiao nodded.
"Is the princess in the palace too?" she asked.
"Ah, no, I'm the only one in the palace, the queen summoned her, the princess..." Speaking of this, Yu Jin smiled helplessly, but she didn't hide anything from Gu Jiao, "The queen wants to know about the little marquis, princess I don't want to talk about it, so I said I was sick and stayed in the house, and asked me to come and report to the queen."
As for the queen asking Yu Jin, Yu Jin only shied away from being a servant, and didn't know anything about it.
Empress Xiao can torture others, but she can't treat Yu Jin like this. One is that Yu Jin is right, and the other is that Yu Jin is Princess Xinyang's confidant. If Empress Xiao dares to touch her, Princess Xinyang will not give up.
Family, there is no need to make trouble to that point.
The two walked towards the gate of the palace together.
Gu Jiao always doesn't like to inquire about people's privacy, but since Yu Jin confirmed Xiao Liulang's identity, she no longer treats Gu Jiao as an outsider.
She took the initiative and said to Gu Jiao, "Actually, the relationship between the princess and the queen is not very close."
She used the word intimacy, which is a modification after consideration and beautification. In fact, the relationship between the two is very cold. The reason is that Xuanping Hou and Princess Xinyang have a bad relationship. Queen Xiao, as the sister of Xuanping Hou, naturally I don't blame my brother for mistakes.
So I have some opinions on Princess Xinyang.
Princess Xinyang is not someone who puts a hot face on someone's cold butt, which leads to the lukewarm situation between the two.
"Alas." Yu Jin sighed, "The queen and the princess love the little Marquis very much. When the little Marquis was there, the two occasionally talked. Since the little Marquis... something happened, the queen and the princess have hardly communicated much. ."
The only meeting was when Princess Xinyang returned to Beijing last time and entered the palace to greet the empress.
However, this is not the friendship between the sister-in-law and the sister-in-law, but the gift of the ruler and the minister.
Yu Jin and Gu Jiao said that these are not to hope that Gu Jiao will deal with them for the two, nor is it to remind Gu Jiao that what Princess Xinyang didn't say should not come out of Gu Jiao's mouth.
She was just gossiping with Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao is a good listener. First Princess Rui and then Yu Jin are very willing to share their thoughts with Gu Jiao.
The two of them were talking and unknowingly came to the gate of the palace.
Gu Jiao came here in the little three's carriage. Unfortunately, the little three's carriage was broken and the wheels were a little loose. He was squatting on the ground to repair it.
Yu Jin said to Gu Jiao, "Doctor Gu, I'll take you back."
Gu Jiao didn't refuse, she talked to the little three, and got on Yu Jin's carriage.
She could see that Yu Jin was still complacent with gossip and wanted to talk to herself.
After getting into the carriage, Yu Jin thought of something and asked Gu Jiao, "By the way, is Madam Hou giving birth soon?"
Gu Jiao said, "Already born."
Yu Jin was startled and asked, "Didn't you say next month? It's going to be born so soon? Is it a son or a daughter? Are you all okay?"
This word, obviously, takes Yao shi into consideration.
Gu Jiao nodded gratefully: "It's the son, mother and son are safe."
Yu Jin smiled happily: "That's great. You must tell the princess this great news. Doctor Gu, would you mind taking a trip to Suzaku Street?"
"Okay." Gu Jiao said.
Yu Jin is not someone who can only gossip about her own thoughts. She is also very concerned about Gu Jiao's situation. On the way after that, she almost asked questions related to the little guy and Yao Shi.
Gu Jiao didn't talk much, and her answers were very concise and to the point. People who didn't know her would probably misunderstand that she was perfunctory.
Yu Jin understood that she answered every question seriously.
Yujin likes this kind of girl, she doesn't play tricks, she doesn't flatter her, she doesn't show courtesy, and all her cherishing and friendship are hidden in her details.
The carriage drove into Suzaku Street, Yu Jin opened the curtain to take a look, and found that a carriage seemed to be parked in front of her yard from a distance.
"Huh? That carriage looks familiar." Yu Jin muttered.
Gu Jiao followed her gaze and said, "It's the carriage of Marquis Xuanping."
This carriage appeared from time to time in the hospital, Guozijian and Bishui Hutong, and Gu Jiao had already deeply remembered its appearance.
Yu Jin was even more puzzled: "Why did Lord Hou come here?"
As far as the relationship between the two of them is concerned, they usually ask someone to talk to each other, and the number of times they take the initiative to go to each other is very small, especially the Marquis of Xuanping. He probably understands that Princess Xinyang doesn't want to see him, so he never goes to Princess Xinyang to see himself. No fun.
In fact, Marquis Xuanping was just passing by today and didn't plan to go to Princess Xinyang, but he heard Princess Xinyang's screams, and it seemed that something had happened.
He followed the sound and came to the attic of the study. Princess Xinyang was slumped on the ground, her right foot was heavily pressed by the falling bookshelf, the attic was cramped, she couldn't retreat, and she couldn't get up.
Marquis Xuanping bowed and walked into the attic. In this attic, Princess Xinyang could stand up straight at the highest point, but Marquis Xuanping was too tall, and he had to straddle the whole time.
He removed the heavy bookshelf, and removed the books that had fallen to the ground. Blood oozes from her shoes, and it looks like she was seriously injured.
Marquis Xuanping frowned: "Why didn't you see your Long Yingwei coming here? Are they all eating dry rice?"
He came from the street, not to mention very slow, but the journey was there, and during this period, her Dragon Shadow Guard had all the time to rescue her.
It's ridiculous, knowing that someone rescued her, she still came.
But the Dragon Shadow Guard who should have appeared did not appear.
This made Xuanping Marquis do not know what to say for a while.
Thank you for being here
How did Princess Xinyang know that so many thoughts flashed through his mind
Long Yi went out to run errands, and she didn't bring the other four Long Yingwei to the capital at all.
Seeing that she didn't answer, and he didn't force her to ask questions, he squatted down on one knee, intending to see her injury, but she suddenly said, "Don't come here!"
Row.
Although they are husband and wife, they have only slept once in so many years, and they have to talk about the difference between men and women when they are with her.
fuck it.
"You're not seriously injured," Xuanping Hou said.
With this amount of blood, let's talk about an inch-long hole.
Marquis Xuanping thought for a while, the most important thing was to save her, and she still had to get rid of her.
Marquis Xuanping reached out and hugged her.
Princess Xinyang's reaction was even bigger, and her body suddenly ducked to the side.
Marquis Xuanping's hand froze in the air, he looked at her strangely, and said, "I just hug you down, I don't have any other thoughts, it seems that this Marquis wants to take advantage of you."
This attic is too small, so small that she has nowhere to retreat, and the distance between them is too close, so close that she is surrounded by his masculine breath, her face turns white, and her forehead begins to ooze Fine cold sweat.
Marquis Xuanping quickly noticed her strangeness, he frowned even more, and said impatiently and self-deprecatingly, "Qin Fengwan, this marquis doesn't eat people."
Princess Xinyang did not answer his words.
At first, Marquis Xuanping thought she was disdainful to talk to him, but gradually he found that her body was trembling and her lips were bloodless.
"Qin Fengwan?" He looked at her inquiringly.
"You... don't come here... please." Princess Xinyang said almost in a pleading tone.
Marquis Xuanping has known Princess Xinyang for so many years, and he has never seen her sullen to anyone. Strictly speaking, she is not shy at the moment, but she is really begging him.
Beg him not to come near her.
Do you hate me so much
Marquis Xuanping looked at her fixedly, and Xu Yan denied the idea. Rather than disgust, her reaction was more appropriate to say fear.
Xuanping Hou didn't understand what he was afraid of. The last time she chased her from the roof on the street, he caught her with his own hands. Isn't she fine
He also coldly ordered him to put her down.
Where has that arrogance gone
Although Xuanping Hou had some doubts in his heart, Princess Xueyang's condition was really not optimistic. Xuanping Hou seriously doubted that if she did not go out, she would be suffocated here on the spot.
Xuanping Hou went down to the attic.
It just so happened that Yu Jin and Gu Jiao entered the yard.
"Master Hou." Yu Jin bowed.
The Marquis of Xuanping looked at her, then looked at Gu Jiao beside her, and said, "The princess is in the attic and is injured, you go and have a look."
There is only a study attic in the whole yard. After listening to Xuanping Hou's words, Yu Jin didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly took Gu Jiao up to the attic.
Seeing the two of them, Princess Xinyang breathed a sigh of relief, and the suffocating dizziness finally subsided.
"Princess!" Yu Jin knelt beside her and held her against her arms.
Gu Jiao checked the wound for Princess Xinyang. It was a skin injury. There were two cuts in total, one of which was deep.
Gu Jiao took out the small medicine box from the small back basket, and took the disinfectant to clean her wound.
Princess Xinyang's complexion was very bad. Gu Jiao originally thought she was suffering from pain, but her complexion improved a little when she was disinfected.
So, don't be afraid of pain.
"Is the princess uncomfortable elsewhere?" Gu Jiao asked.
The face she saw when she first came in was as if she was about to breathe.
Princess Xinyang is very smart, how could she not know why Gu Jiao asked this question, she lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembled, she shook her head and said, "No, I'm much better."
Gu Jiao paused for her gauze-wrapped hand: "Okay, don't touch the wound with water."
After treating Princess Xinyang's injuries, Gu Jiao carried Princess Xinyang down from the attic.
Back in the room, Yu Jin took clean clothes to put on for Princess Xinyang.
Xuanping Marquis didn't leave, he hesitated for a while, but went to Princess Xinyang's house.
Gu Jiao left, and Yu Jin went to see her off.
Inside the house, Princess Xinyang sat on the soft bed, with her back against the cushion at the head of the bed, and was boredly flipping through a book.
Her expression has recovered, and she can't see the embarrassment just now.
"Is something wrong?" Princess Xinyang glanced at him and said lightly.
Yes, it has changed back to the former Xinyang.
Xuanping Hou pulled a chair, sat down beside her bed, and looked at her for a moment: "Qin Fengwan, what's wrong with you?"
Princess Xinyang didn't look at him, her eyes always fell on a book of poems she was reading: "What's wrong?"
Xuanping Hou stared straight at her face, not letting go of any of her subtle expressions: "In the attic, something is wrong with you."
Princess Xinyang said perfunctorily, "I hurt."
"Does that hurt you?" Xuanping Hou frowned impatiently and pointed to himself, "Or do you think I've been fighting for half my life, but I can't even tell the difference between pain and fear? Are you afraid of me, Qin? Windy night."
Princess Xinyang pursed her lips.
Xuan Pinghou looked puzzled: "I don't care about you much, do I? Why do I need to be so afraid of me? I haven't seen you afraid of me on weekdays, and now you're not afraid, why are you so afraid just in the attic?"
As if to confirm that she was not afraid of her own guess at the moment, he leaned in front of her.
Princess Xinyang did not speak.
Marquis Xuanping's gaze fell from her face to her hand, she was holding the book, and her knuckles were faintly white.
Marquis Xuanping sat back in the chair and distanced himself from her.
He asked himself that he had never done anything that would make her wary. Between them, it was she who was ready to raise a butcher's knife at each other at any time, she was not allowed to touch, and she was the one who took the initiative.
She was even afraid of herself like this, and only in the attic.
Xuanping Hou narrowed his eyes and asked seriously, "Did someone bully you, Qin Fengwan?"
"I'm tired." Princess Xinyang closed the Book of Poetry in her hand and euphemistically ordered the expulsion.
The Marquis of Xuanping wanted to ask more, when the voice of Steward Liu came from the yard: "Master Hou! Master Hou! Your Majesty summons me!"
Marquis Xuanping felt that Princess Xinyang's body seemed to loosen up when she heard these words.
He took a deep look at her, she raised her chin and held on stubbornly, like a proud peacock, but her slightly trembling eyelashes and bloodless lips betrayed her one after another.
Xuanping Hou's eyes dimmed, he stood up and looked at her, his subordinates did not stop, and put the chair back to its original place.
"Qin Fengwan."
He called her name, she didn't respond to him, he looked back with a complicated expression, turned and walked out.
