Unexpectedly, as soon as he raised his head, he met Yu Siling's eyes as ignorant as a baby.
He was slightly startled.
Ye Fuxun was also a little embarrassed. In fact, she had woken up early in the process, but like him, in order to avoid unnecessary embarrassment and trouble, she had been pretending to be in a coma. She didn't expect that he would see through it so quickly.
.
"Your Majesty's good way of bandaging, I must have bandaged myself often before."
As if to relieve the embarrassment, she started to talk.
As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed something and immediately wanted to fool her big mouth.
In the past, when Xiao Zichen was injured, she took care of it herself.
By saying this now, isn't this a blatant reminder of his sadness?
Sure enough, Xiao Zichen, who was already silent, became even more silent.
The patter of rain outside the temple broke the somewhat awkward atmosphere between the two.
"Then King Chen, it's because of me that I'm in such an embarrassing situation. It must be the first time for you."
Ye Fuxun thought in his heart that this question would never touch his heart again.
Everyone said that Xiao Zichen from Dongchen Kingdom was the most beautiful, the dream lover of every woman in the world, and the dream of every big man in the world. How could he look so embarrassed?
It's a pity... Xiao Zichen was silent again.
Ye Fuxun touched his nose in embarrassment, and made up his mind not to embarrass himself again. He was about to close his eyes and wait quietly for someone to rescue them, when suddenly he heard him speak suddenly.
"some."
"The most embarrassing moment for me was the day you arrived in Dongchen."
Ye Fuxun was stunned.
Then he reacted: "Sorry, I..."
"Princess, don't worry, this is all my own business. Once upon a time, I was still Xiao Zichen. From now on, I will only live for her."
He spoke so firmly that she didn't know how to reply.
The two of them were silent.
I don't know how long it took, until Ye Fuxun's eyelids were shaking, and then he heard the sudden noise of people outside the temple.
Because she was far away and couldn't hear clearly what those people were saying, she subconsciously thought they were assassins. She jumped up from the straw pile and looked towards the source of the sound with some fear.
"Don't worry, everyone here is my people." Xiao Zichen said.
Ye Fuxun felt relieved, and then asked curiously: "Our place is so remote, are you sure they can find it here?"
"Of course Prince Chen's Mansion has its own rules. Only the king's people can recognize the things I left behind. We just need to wait here."
He had already said so, and Ye Fuxun couldn't ask any more questions.
After about half a cup of tea, the group of people finally arrived in front of the temple and found them holding torches.
"Come quickly, the prince is here! The prince is here!"
In an instant, Ye Fuxun was so loud that he sat up from the straw pile uncomfortably. He accidentally touched his wound and let out an ouch.
Xiao Zichen looked back at her.
The leader rushed in holding a torch and knelt down on the ground with a plop: "My lord, please forgive me, I'm late!"
As she said her greetings to Ye Fuxun, she didn't expect that as soon as she raised her head, she saw the prince's coat hanging down on her body, and the princess's hair was messy.
For a moment, he seemed to have thought of something and put his head on the ground: "My lord, please forgive me!"
Ye Fuxun immediately realized that he had misunderstood something, and he was a little flustered and wanted to explain. Unfortunately, before the words could be spoken, Xiao Zichen suddenly turned over and hugged her.
"Go home!"
The guards who dared to look any longer said the same thing. They all lowered their heads almost to their chests, for fear of seeing something they shouldn't see again.
Outside the temple, a carriage has been prepared.
Xiao Zichen put her on the carriage and was about to turn around and go out, but she suddenly stopped him: "Why is the prince leaving?"
He paused and said: "The carriage is not comfortable. I will go and ride a horse so that the princess can rest."
"What should I do about the injury on the prince's body?" She asked worriedly, still thinking about the blood she touched on his body.
"Don't worry, princess," Xiao Zichen said without turning around: "Those are the assassin's blood, not mine."
With that said, he turned around and got out of the carriage.
There was a noise outside, Xiao Zichen seemed to say something, and suddenly it was extremely quiet again.
The horse curtain was suddenly opened. She thought it was Xiao Zichen coming up, but suddenly a person rushed up to her, hugged her waist tightly, and cried: "Princess, just be okay."
The visitor was crying, which made her dumbfounded. She quickly comforted her and said, "Didn't I get back safely? Why are you crying?"
"The princess was attacked by an assassin and her whereabouts are unknown, but I couldn't protect the princess properly. It's really my dereliction of duty, please punish me!" Lu Xia cried so hard that she even burped.
Ye Fuxun was amused by her, but he accidentally touched the wound. With an ouch, Lu Xia immediately raised his head, crying, and his nose was red.
"The princess is injured?"
"It's okay, it's just a minor injury. Let's talk about it when we get home." She smiled uncomfortably and comforted her.
Lu Xia choked twice, but she also understood that what he needed at this time was silence, so he obediently closed his mouth and sat in the corner.
After about half an hour, we finally arrived at the palace.
The servants of Prince Chen's Mansion came and went in a hurry, running around in a panic. Xiao Zichen carried her all the way back to the room, with Lu Xia trotting behind him.
The imperial doctor diagnosed and treated her before coming to a conclusion.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the princess's injury is not poisonous, it's just a fever caused by physical weakness. I'll prescribe a few decoctions and she'll be cured."
Xiao Zichen nodded, and then the imperial doctor went down.
When there were only three of them in the room, Ye Fuxun uttered the words he had been holding in his heart: "Your Majesty, who do you think is so bold as to send an assassin this time?"
Xiao Zichen was slightly stunned. He didn't seem to think that she was talking about this question. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Who does the princess think you are?"
"In my opinion, there are only three candidates. It is impossible for the emperor and the queen mother to be the emperor. They still hope that I will be a chess piece. How can they send assassins."
Xiao Zichen said nothing.
"The queen regards me as a thorn in her flesh. Xiao Zhe said at the palace banquet tonight that I would be the imperial concubine, which means that this will threaten her status.
As for the Xiao sisters, one loves you, and the other is as afraid as the queen of me threatening her status, so the assassin was sent by them."
"The princess just said that there is another person who is also a serious suspect. Who is it?" Xiao Zichen asked without taking what she said.
Ye Fuxun smiled, but looked at him with compassion: "There is a group of people who are naturally under King Chen."
"Absurd!" Xiao Zichen shouted, with a faint hint of anger in his brows and eyes, angry at his words.
