"Let me twist it for the princess." Xie Ying asked Zhu Yi to sit on the edge of the bed, and wrapped her half-wet hair with a white cotton towel prepared by the palace maid.
Xie Ying was inside, so Mianfeng couldn't come in to help her twist her hair. This job should be done by him, and Zhu Yi took it with peace of mind.
He picked up the sandalwood comb in the silver tray again. Zhu Yi's hair was slender, smooth and smooth like silk, it looked good, and it made people unwilling to let go of it, so Xie Ying combed it for a while.
Zhu Yi looked at him and said, "Your Majesty is doing quite well, isn't he?"
Xie Ying glanced at Zhu Yi and smiled: "In the future, I will comb the princess often, and it will be easier." Then said: "I heard that the princess is not in good health today, it seems to be a pain in my heart?"
Zhu Yi was slightly startled, and said: "Yes, but it's nothing serious, it's an old problem."
Xie Ying stared at Zhu Yi. Zhu Yi felt that the tone of the other party had changed: "It's an old problem, and the princess also carries pills with her whenever she wants to come. The princess has golden branches and jade leaves, so there is no reason to recruit doctors and doctors at will. There are people who are proficient in Qihuang by my side. If the princess has another Unwell, the minister called someone to treat the princess."
He began to profess himself again. Zhu Yi discovered that Xie Ying would not usually call her "Chen", but as long as he used this word, he must have a different intention from usual. Xie Ying really couldn't fault her words, she was a loyal courtier, but the tone of saying one thing was really wrong. Did he know something? Zhu Yi looked at Xie Ying and said, "Got it."
"Does the princess still feel pain?" Xie Ying asked.
Zhu Yi wanted to divert his attention, and said, "Just a little, just sleep for one night."
"Yes, I will pinch the princess."
The man's hot palms covered Zhu Yi's stomach, and the skin between the two was only separated by a thin layer of underwear. Zhu Yi shrank as if she was being burned, and quickly pressed his hand: "No need." But her A little bit of strength has no effect on Xie Ying. Xie Ying insisted on caring for her, but she couldn't refuse at all.
Xie Ying rubbed her hands in a circular motion, and really solemnly helped her press her stomach, and asked, "Is it comfortable?"
Zhu Yi bit her lip and nodded, she didn't know why her legs would go limp whenever Xie Ying touched her. But it's really comfortable. It was useless to resist, so she slowly relaxed her body. Sensing Zhu Yi's change, Xie Ying pulled her over and leaned against him.
If anyone who owns a cat sees this scene, they will definitely feel that Zhu Yi's current lazy description is very much like a cat whose belly is touched by its owner. Xie Ying looked down at Zhu Yi's obedient appearance with satisfaction. His intention was to let Zhu Yi gradually accept and get used to the closeness of the two of them.
"Is the princess better?" Xie Ying asked.
Zhu Yi nodded confusedly, how could Xie Ying knead so comfortably, he can also go to the plum blossom soup restaurant as a male master. Oh no, no, he can only give her a girl. Her breathing gradually became longer.
Xie Ying rubbed Zhu Yi's stomach for a while, and let her lie flat on the bed.
Xie Ying covered Zhu Yi with a silk quilt, sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her sleeping face for a while, then suddenly stretched out her hand and twisted her bulging chest hard, causing the sleeping Zhu Yi to groan in pain. One sound. He said: "Next time the princess lies, I will punish little Yiyi." After saying that, he got up and left.
Early the next morning, Zhu Yi went to the Ksitigarbha Hall, and Wen Yan stayed outside the hall, but after a while, Xie Ying brought Shen Xingliu over.
Wen Yan took two steps forward: "Your Majesty." Xie Ying looked at her: "What are you doing standing outside?"
Wen Yan said nervously: "The princess said that she worships Buddha and likes to be quiet, and doesn't like strangers around, so she ordered her slaves to stay here."
Xie Ying entered the hall, the futon was empty, and there were wooden fish, rosary beads and a roll of gold millet paper on the table. Only Mianfeng and Zhu Yi's little maid Wanqing were there. "Where's the princess?" he asked.
Wan Qing rushed to answer Xie Ying, her voice was sweeter than usual: "The princess is offering lamps in the side hall."
Xie Ying moved to the side hall when she heard the words, Mian Feng stopped in front of Xie Ying and said: "Your Majesty, please slow down."
The man's eyes were cold and piercing, and even if he didn't speak, Mianfeng's voice trembled uncontrollably: "My lord, the princess must visualize when offering lamps, and no one is allowed to disturb her."
With Xie Ying's swipe, Mianfeng was brought to the side, his figure swayed, and he had already lifted the curtain. The lamp is on, but there is no sign of Zhu Yi
Zhu Yi didn't leave too far, he was in the fasting hall next to the Dizang Temple. The person she met was exactly the one arranged by Rong Xiao. Zhu Yi looked at the other's token, listened to what he told him about what he knew back then, and asked some questions he wanted to know, and asked the eunuch Chang Lin to lead him out of the temple. Zhu Yi was a little disappointed that the two did not provide any valuable clues.
She watched the backs of the two disappear into the winding forest road, took off her veil and turned around, but was startled by a man who appeared at no time.
"Is there anything wrong with the princess's body? Today I changed a doctor." Xie Ying stood upright leaning on Gu Bai's body, looking at Zhu Yi with sharper eyes than usual.
Zhu Yi suppressed the turmoil in her heart, frowned slightly and said, "I'm a little dizzy today." Her voice was soft, and her breathing was a little short due to nervousness, which really showed a bit of frailty.
Xie Ying walked forward, but Zhu Yi backed away, stepped on the silk curtain of the hat in her hand and fell down without taking two steps, and asked Xie Ying to grab her arm and lift her up. Xie Ying looked at her for a moment and said, "Is there anything the princess wants to tell the minister?"
Joey shook his head. Xie Ying pulled out a slightly self-deprecating smile, and followed Zhu Yi without saying a word.
Back in the room, Xie Ying was standing in front of the desk with a pen, and the pen was flying like flying. The image of a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face was vividly drawn on the paper.
Xie Ying put down her pen and said: "Leave it to Sheng Qing. The background of this person and that one yesterday must be carefully verified. It has been too long, and the tokens alone are not accurate, especially after finding out whether the two have wives and children. "Those who drag their families and mouths, even if they are willing to be used by Zhu Yi now, if they are caught by someone in the future, they will still turn against the water.
Shen Xingliu answered yes.
Soon someone came in and reported to Xie Ying: "My lord, just now the princess came out of the courtyard and met with the third son Rong in the Garan Palace."
Xie Ying said lightly: "Understood."
------
That day Zhu Yi woke up after taking a nap, and finally couldn't help but said: "Wen Yan, I haven't seen the prince for two days, what is he busy with?" She knew that Xie Ying was busy, so she tried to give him time, but two days were too busy. It would be too much not to show up. Doesn't he... don't even miss her
Wen Yan said: "The servants are following the princess now, and they don't know the prince's usual arrangements. However, the servants seem to have seen the prince return to the opposite room earlier."
"Really?" Zhu Yi got up from the bed and went out.
"Princess?" Tao Fan, who was clearing the paper and ink on the table in Xie Ying's room, saluted quickly when she saw Zhu Yi who suddenly appeared.
After a while, Xie Ying came out from behind the screen: "The princess has something to do with me?" Seeing this, Tao Fan immediately exited the door.
Zhu Yi said: "Did the prince forget that you are still on an errand to protect me?"
Zhu Yi didn't frown, but there were subtle emotions in her voice, Xie Ying looked at her silently for a moment, and said, "I have not forgotten."
"Then you disappeared for two days, did you tell me?" The more she said, the more she felt aggrieved.
Xie Ying said: "It's not what the princess said, let's not bother each other's private affairs?"
She did say this, but she didn't mean... Seeing Xie Ying's indifference, Zhu Yi immediately didn't want to pay any attention to him, snorted, turned around and left.
"Ah!" Just two steps under the shade of the tree, Zhu Yi suddenly let out a low cry.
Xie Ying came out of the room upon hearing the sound, and saw Zhu Yi stomping on the spot, scratching her neck and back with both hands. The red mark on the back of the snow-white neck is eye-catching, and goes down, hidden in the purple blouse.
Xie Ying frowned: "Princess, don't grab it with your hands."
Zhu Yi felt that this person had wings instead of feet, because it was like a gust of wind swept her, and she was brought back to Xie Ying's room.
With the sound of the two doors closing, Zhu Yi was pressed to sit by the table, and the next moment the man's fingers had penetrated through the neckline, slightly opening her thin shirt.
Xie Ying had a panoramic view of Zhu Yi's bare back, including the red-scarred milky-white skin, two delicate butterfly bones, and the gracefully curved slender spinal groove.
"You—" Zhu Yi finally came to his senses, and he became more and more presumptuous. He even picked up her clothes and looked at her in broad daylight, turning around angrily, trying to get rid of his hand.
"Don't move!" Xie Ying reprimanded: "Your back is full of thorns from foreign peppers. Wait here."
After speaking, Zhu Yi was left alone.
His back was unusually itchy and hot, and his fingertips were also slightly red and swollen. Zhu Yi had already guessed it was chili pepper, but she was stung once when she was a child, and it didn't hurt like this, and she didn't know what kind it was this time, it was so poisonous.
She also knew that wrapping clothes around her body would make the burrs drill deeper, so she really didn't move any more.
Xie Ying came back soon, and he said: "Princess, take off the coat, and I will help you take out the burr."
Zhu Yi's heart suddenly jumped: "How can this be done. You... can't you call Mianfeng over?"
"No. She can't do well when she comes here, what if there are thorns left on the princess." Xie Ying didn't look at Zhu Yi, but took a piece of cotton gauze from the medicine box, and didn't know what to smear on it.
Seeing Xie Ying's eyes fixed on applying the medicine, Zhu Yi said, "Then... you must promise me that you will only help me remove the burr, and you can't do anything else."
Xie Ying said ambiguously: "The princess really thinks a lot."
Zhu Yi blushed, she didn't hear Xie Ying's avoidance of the important thing, she thought about it, and untied her belt. Xie Ying asked her to take off the bellyband too, because the strap at the back would affect the stabbing. Qian Zi's fine gauze robe came off and hung loosely around Zhu Yi's waist.
Xie Ying lifted a stool and sat behind Zhu Yi, lightly covered the cotton gauze on Zhu Yi's back, and then tore it off inch by inch. Then I heard him say: "Princess, the burr has been taken out. Don't move, and I will give you medicine."
Zhu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, hearing that she was still obediently sitting in front of Xie Ying, she held the clothes with both hands and lifted them up to cover her chest, and let him clean his back with a cotton pad first, and then apply the medicine.
Zhu Yi had no idea what kind of visual impact her appearance would have on a man at this moment. Although the front was tightly covered by her defensively, her fragrant shoulders and jade arms, which were pinched by Chuxue, were exposed outside. Although the package is upright and round, although the real content cannot be seen, it makes people want to see it even more.
The different colors in the world make people upside down and sink.
Zhu Yi kept asking: "Is the prince well? The place you rub now has already been medicated."
Xie Ying hooked his lips, how could he not know that the medicine had been given here, he was just dragging his time to think about it, and he hadn't made a final decision yet. However, this little fool, Zhu Yi, seemed to sense the danger.
Xie Ying finally replied: "Okay."
Seeing that the medicine on the back was finished, Zhu Yi reminded: "There are still fingers." The thorns were picked out and cleaned, but the medicine hadn't been applied yet, and Xie Ying probably forgot.
Zhu Yi put his left hand on his shoulder and gave Xie Ying his fingers. Her left hand was quickly grasped by the person behind her. The next moment, Zhu Yi opened her eyes wide, and the numbness all over her body made her voice tremble: "What are you doing?"
Xie Ying still held Zhu Yi's finger in her mouth and sucked lightly. Zhu Yi twisted, Xie Ying was afraid of hurting her wrist, so she let go of her.
After withdrawing his hand, Zhu Yi turned around and accused the man, "You—you forgot what you promised me earlier?"
Xie Ying looked down at the scenery that Zhu Yiyin was covering her clothes with only one hand, and her voice was hoarse, restraining her desire to the limit: "What did I promise the princess?"
