Her plain white tunic and trousers were all covered in bright red. The bed, the thin quilt, and even Zhao Zhi's tunic were all stained with that touch of red.
"A lot of blood..." Li Can held his body up and hid in fear.
"Don't be afraid." Zhao Ye ignored the others and stretched out his long arms to hold her in his arms. He patted her vest and comforted her in a low voice: "Li Can, don't be afraid. This is a normal thing."
"What's an ordinary thing?" Li Can's face turned pale with fright, and he subconsciously argued: "Who can shed so much blood for nothing?"
Zhao Ji didn't know how to explain it for a moment, so he could only say: "It will be fine in a few days."
Li Can didn't know whether he heard it or not. He looked at the blood stains in a daze. Suddenly, another wave of heat surged out of his lower abdomen.
She grabbed Zhao Ye by the collar, her eyes were red, tears were rolling in her eyes, and she asked in a trembling voice: "Brother Zeyu, am I suffering from some incurable disease? Am I going to die? Tell the truth.
"
"No, don't think so wildly." Zhao Zhi ordered outside: "Wu Chao, go to the study and get "Qian Jin Yi Fang"."
"Qian Jin Yi Fang" contains a detailed description of the physiology and pathology of her daughter's monthly letters, as well as various matters that should be paid attention to when various monthly letters come.
"You lied!" Li Can didn't believe him at all and raised his hand to hit him.
How can anyone survive bleeding so much? Besides, she was still in so much pain before, so there must be something wrong with her internal organs!
"I don't want to die..." She sobbed and cried.
She is scared!
If she died now, her grandmother and aunt would definitely be very sad, while the He family, mother and son would definitely be happy.
She didn't want to upset her relatives and make her enemies happy.
And Zhao Hao...
She looked up at Zhao Zong with tears in her eyes.
"Don't be afraid, nothing will happen." Zhao Zong rubbed her messy hair: "Change and wash it first."
Tang Cake, Tang Guang and others came in to wait on him. Seeing that Li Can had made Zhao Zong covered in blood, they all turned pale with fright.
In the Great Abyss, where men are superior to women, women's status is far inferior to that of men. Women's menstruation is considered to be bad luck. Men's families will feel bad luck if they don't say they are affected by it, or if they accidentally see it or hear about it.
Married men never go to the yard of menstruating ladies and aunts.
This understanding is even greater in the remote village of Zhuangzi, where the daughter's family will be locked up in the firewood shed at home on these days of each month, spending their time in the dark.
"Your Highness, the girl doesn't understand anything. Please don't blame me." Tang Cake quickly calmed down and knelt down: "This slave will ask Wu Zai to come in and help His Highness take a bath."
It was the first time that the girl had menstruation and she didn't understand these things. Naturally, they, the slaves, had to apologize for the girl.
Tangqiu and others also knelt down.
"Get up." Zhao Zong let go of Li Can: "You wait for her to take a bath first."
He called Wu Zao to fetch water, then went behind the screen.
Tang Cake and Tang Qiu looked at each other, and they both saw incredulity in each other's eyes.
His Royal Highness has always loved cleanliness, but he didn't mind at all when the girl soiled his shirt. At least they didn't show the slightest trace of dislike or taboo. Maybe His Highness's treatment of the girl is not what they think on the surface?
"Candy cakes, candies..." Li Can looked at them with tears in his eyes: "I have an incurable disease..."
"What are you talking nonsense about?" Candy took a step forward and subconsciously retorted.
"My lower abdomen hurts so much, and I lost so much blood..." Li Can lowered his head and couldn't help but shed tears.
She doesn't want to die.
"The girl said this is an incurable disease?" Candy was surprised, but couldn't help but want to laugh.
Tanggai stepped forward to support Li Can and comforted with a smile: "Girl, this is a common thing. You just grow up and you will get used to it."
"You have learned how to lie!" Li Can heard this and pushed her angrily.
Even the rhetoric was exactly the same as Zhao Zong's, which shows that it was Zhao Zong who ordered people to speak the same language.
"Girl, it's true." Tangcai blushed and lowered her voice: "There are slaves too. When my daughter's parents grow up, she will bleed once a month. It's okay."
"Are you serious?" Li Can looked at her doubtfully, forgetting to cry for a moment.
"Please ask if Candy is it." Tang Cake looked at Candy.
Candy came closer and whispered: "That's true, girl. When the slave first came back, he was also frightened.
Fortunately, I have Tang Gao to take care of me and give me guidance."
"Girl, let's go take a bath and change our clothes first, okay?" Tang Cake coaxed Li Can softly: "These clothes are all dirty. We girls always love clean things the most."
Li Can looked down at himself and nodded: "Yes."
"You all come and clear the bed." Tanggai supported Li Can and ordered the other maids.
The two of them helped Li Can bathe and change clothes.
The rest of the maids were busy in the bedroom, and soon they tidied up Xiangyun Babu's bed and made it look brand new.
"Girl, use this as a cushion and I will teach you."
After Li Can took a bath, Tang Gao took the delicate and soft long cloud cotton bag that was newly delivered from outside, stuffed it with crushed new cotton, and carefully taught Li Can how to use it.
Li Can learned it quickly.
Tanggao warned again: "Girl, please don't eat cold food anymore, and don't touch cold water. You also need to pay attention to your behavior in daily life, and don't let blood stain your clothes."
"Yeah." Li Can nodded lightly. Now he no longer had the initial panic, but felt incredible.
She has never seen anything like this before. Is this what her daughter's parents are like when they grow up?
"Did you get the book?" Zhao Ye came out from behind the screen, dressed in plain white silk clothes, and his expression returned to his usual cold expression.
"Yes." Wu Zai hurriedly took a few steps forward, took the book, and handed it to him with both hands.
Zhao Ye took it and sent it to Li Can.
Li Can took the book, looked outside, fluttered his long crow-green eyelashes and asked him: "It's almost dawn, aren't you going to do your business?"
She didn't want to be alone with Zhao Xie.
"I'm still grounded." Zhao Zong replied calmly.
"Didn't you go out during the day?" Li Can was puzzled.
She thought that Zhao Ji's ban was already lifted if he could go to the Prince's Mansion for a banquet.
"That's what the father meant." Zhao Zhen's expression did not change. He sat down on the side table and opened the book to read.
Li Can looked at his back. No matter whether he was standing or sitting, Zhao Ji's posture was always upright and upright.
She looked at it for a moment, then sat back on the bed, leaned against the bedside, and opened the book that Zhao Zong had given her.
After watching carefully for half an hour, she roughly understood what happened to her and what she should be taboo about.
Before she knew it, it was already bright. She was obviously reading a book, but at some point she couldn't help but look at Zhao Zong's back, lost in thought.
"Your Highness." Wuhuang came in and reported: "Yue Ming is here."
Zhao Zhen stood up: "Change clothes."
He stepped forward to serve without any hesitation.
When Zhao Zong went out, Yue Ming had been waiting outside the corridor for a long time.
"Your Highness!" When he saw Zhao Zong coming out, he quickly raised his hands and saluted.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Zong asked.
"King Qi has already handed over the silver coins and various properties that he had embezzled in Longyou." Yue Ming replied: "In order not to be implicated, King Qi told Your Majesty that the silver coins and properties were all known to Longyou Mansion.
Wang Bian's greed was accidentally broken by his men."
"Wang Bian is willing to take the blame?" Zhao Ji asked with his hands behind his hands.
"Yes." Yueming nodded: "I don't know what means King Qi used, but Wang Bian took all the blame."
"A house outside the city?" Zhao Zhen asked again.
"The house was also handed over, and it was also said that it was purchased by Wang Bian with the money he had embezzled." Yue Ming raised his head and said, "King Qi has done this matter neatly, but I'm afraid he can't find any fault.
However, for King Qi to hand over such a large amount of money at once is equivalent to cutting off an arm, and he should not provoke His Highness again in the short term."
"Just hand it over." Zhao Zong pondered for a moment and looked at him: "Is there any progress in the matter of smuggling weapons and armor?"
"My subordinates got the letter and found out that Captain Zhongwu, who was leading the team, might have been threatened. He was even no longer alive. Someone took his place as captain and transported the weapons and armor to Jiaozhou on purpose.
He has the intention to frame His Highness for rebellion," Yue Ming replied.
"Father's people, have you found this?" Zhao Zhen said in a calm tone.
"We are about to find it." Yue Ming looked at him: "Your Highness, what if we find the witnesses and physical evidence first?"
Zhao Ye paused for a moment and said: "The person who will give clues to the father without leaving any trace."
"Yes." Yue Ming cupped her hands and said, "Your Highness, if you have no other instructions, please leave."
"Yeah." Zhao Zhen nodded slightly.
He put his hands behind his hands and stood in the corridor for a moment, then turned and entered the bedroom.
Li Can, who was paying attention to him, saw him coming in and hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to read.
"Let someone cook the medicine." Zhao Zhi ordered.
"Yes." Wu Zai agreed, and then asked: "Your Highness, are you ready for breakfast?"
At this time, it's almost time to have breakfast.
"Yeah." Zhao Ye glanced at Li Can on the bed: "Get up and wash up."
"I, I've been bleeding and can't practice." Li Can opened her clear eyes wide and looked at him resistingly.
"There is no need to practice today." Zhao Ye lowered his eyes and walked to the table to sit down.
After breakfast, Tang Gao went to bring some soup and medicine and put them on the table.
Zhao Gao said nothing and only raised his eyes to look at Li Can.
Li Can also knew that if she didn't take this decoction, she would be afraid that she would be in pain like last night, so she picked up the bowl and looked at Zhao Hao with her black and white eyes: "Lion with breast balls"
Sugar?"
"You eat first." Zhao Ye lowered his eyes and avoided her gaze.
Li Can lowered her head, holding back the disgust and bringing the bowl to her lips. Just when she was about to open her mouth, a burst of noise suddenly came from outside.
