Lingzhou saw that Chu Xingchen's expression was not right, so he hurriedly spoke.
"Your Highness, please don't move. If you feel any pain, just tell us."
Chu Xingchen felt pain in his face and neck, and reluctantly moved his hands and feet. After finding that he could move, the first crisis of possible disability was resolved.
After taking a breath and being quiet for a moment, she asked in a secular manner, "How is the injury on my face? Is the injury big? Will there be any scars?"
She also wants to continue to be a beautiful little fairy and not leave any scars as long as she can.
Of course, it doesn't mean that having scars is not beautiful. Some scars are medals of honor or bravery. Even if the scars are accidental, it won't affect anything. But her scar is not a medal of bravery. She doesn't want to remember it at all, and she doesn't want to leave any mark.
"It's not big, it won't be. Don't worry, Your Highness. I asked the imperial doctor and he said that the wound is recovering well. Once it's healed, you can just apply some scar-removing medicine."
Xiao Wang replied.
"That's good." Chu Xingchen smiled, "I made you worry."
She didn't have much strength. After drinking some water, she lay down for a while. After gathering some strength, she asked, "Where is Shen Cangzhu?"
Why is he not here? Do you feel embarrassed or are you being settled?
"Kneel outside." Xiao Wang replied, "Your Highness, you..."
He paused, and Chu Xingchen looked at the door, "Kneel down."
"Yes, I have been kneeling since I came back yesterday." Lingzhou curled his lips, "He said he wanted to see you, Your Highness, do you want to see him?"
When he heard that he was coming back, he knelt down. Chu Xingchen thought, it would take him almost a day and a night.
Chu Xingchen's heart ached, he must be in pain and tired, and he must be blaming himself.
After all, he didn't protect the concubine well. Furthermore, she believed that he also liked him. Her feeling was not wrong. Even though she might not be as good as Luo Wan'er, she still liked her somewhat, but not that deeply.
They say childhood sweethearts are no match for heaven, but that's not the case here.
Chu Xingchen thought for a while, "Let him get up."
Lingzhou frowned when he heard this, "Your Highness, he has treated you like this. Why do you want him to get up? You should let him kneel to death. He has died several times. Why are you so soft-hearted? You like him so much." ?”
Ling Zhou spoke quickly and couldn't hold back his words, "Zhou Buyan and I didn't kill him directly, so we took advantage of him. Why can't we kneel down?"
Zhou Buyan said nothing, but his murderous intent was not lessened at all.
Chu Xingchen was stunned for a moment before retorting, "I don't feel sorry for him, I just find it boring."
Those famous scenes in movies, TV dramas and novels where people kneel for long periods of time express affection and abuse. So what does Shen Cangzhu mean by kneeling?
Please forgive me? Regret? Or is it for Luo Waner?
No matter what the reason is, it's totally boring.
Whether it was because she was injured or because of Luo Wan'er, she couldn't kill him because of this incident.
"Since you can't kill, what's the use of kneeling?" Let him kneel to death?
Lingzhou couldn't agree, "Why is it boring? He deserves to kneel down..."
Xiao Wang looked at Chu Xingchen's expression, but felt something was wrong, and hurriedly pulled Ling Zhou and asked him to stop saying a few words.
Ling Zhou was still dissatisfied, but Xiao Wang's advice was still useful. Even though he was full of words, he still tried his best to stay calm.
"Your Highness, I didn't mean to refute what you said. I just saw that you were hurt like this and I felt very angry. I was afraid that you would still like him and feel sorry for him after being like this, so I just wanted to make you sober up."
Chu Xingchen twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Don't worry, I'm very conscious."
She has never been so awake.
"I don't like people who lie to me."
Hearing Chu Xingchen's answer, Lingzhou finally felt relieved, but he didn't see Xiao Wang's face that instantly froze.
Xiao Wang thought a lot for a moment, and he didn't come back to his senses until he heard Ling Zhou saying that Shen Cangzhu was a bargain.
"Your Highness, do you want Mr. Shen Zi to come in?" Xiao Wang asked.
"No." Chu Xingchen shook her head. She didn't want to see him for the time being. She would see him again when her body recovered and she had some strength.
Xiao Wang personally conveyed Chu Xingchen's words. When the queen came and heard what Chu Xingchen said, she didn't say much.
But after Shen Cangzhu got up, he didn't leave. He was waiting outside, "I want to see His Highness."
He wanted to see Chu Xingchen.
Shen Cangzhu breathed a sigh of relief when he finally woke up, but he didn't feel relieved unless he confirmed it with his own eyes.
And he had a lot to say and a lot of things to explain.
Chu Xingchen heard this, but did not change his mind and only asked Shen Cangzhu to go back.
But Shen Cangzhu didn't listen, and just kept standing and waiting for three hours.
Three hours, six hours, almost eight hours of standing, a full working day.
He really has perseverance, and it looks like he won't leave until he faints.
After Chu Xingchen was quiet for a moment, "Then let him come in and I'll talk to him."
Lingzhou curled his lips. Shen Cangzhu knew how to play this trick, but he didn't say much. Xiao Wang pulled him away from him, but Zhou Buyan didn't move.
Chu Xingchen glanced at him before he floated back to the roof.
"Zhou Buyan, you go out too. You saw me awake. You can go to Qi State as planned. Try to contact my father and see if you can find General Qin and escort him back."
Zhou Buyan fell to the ground, looked at Chu Xingchen, and did not obey her order.
"Why don't you answer?" Chu Xingchen looked at Zhou's silent expression and explained helplessly, "You see, I have suffered such a serious crime. We must let General Qin return to Da Chu safely, otherwise the gain will outweigh the loss."
"But I want to protect you." Zhou Buyan was disobedient for the first time and refused the task arranged by Chu Xingchen. He shook his head very firmly, "I won't go."
Last time, just because she listened to His Highness's arrangements, she was injured like this when he went out.
To show his determination, Zhou Buyan thought for a while and added, "I won't go even if you beat him to death."
Chu Xingchen: "...Are you disobedient again?"
"Disobedient." Zhou Buyan nodded heavily, "I was obedient before and you got hurt. This time I disobey. If you want to be beaten, I will be punished."
Chu Xingchen was helpless, "This time it was an accident..."
Zhou didn't say anything and didn't listen. He only said three words: "I won't go."
After finishing speaking, he was worried that Chu Xingchen would be angry and said hurriedly, "Your Highness, don't be angry. Old General Qin can send Tianliu there. His skills are no worse than mine. He can do a good job."
Compared with before, Zhou Buyan talked more today than before, breaking the record, but he only talked more to refute her.
"Of course I know Tianliu is very skilled. I let you go because I believe in you."
"Then please don't believe me, Your Highness, I just want to protect you."
After Zhou Buyan finished speaking, he left, "I'll make arrangements right away."
"Hey Zhou Buyan, you..." Chu Xingchen didn't expect to believe Zhou Buyan even after he said it, "Have you forgotten that you are a shadow?"
Zhou Buyan paused for a moment, "If His Highness wants me to die, I can die, but... if possible, please Your Highness keep my life and let me die more meaningfully."
He wanted to die as her second life, so that his short life would have some meaning.
He is no longer a qualified Shadow, but his disqualification was changed because of her.
Zhou Buyan left, and Chu Xingchen was stunned until Shen Cangzhu entered the room.
