When Zhao Yu woke up, he felt weak all over. His limbs seemed to be falling apart. His right palm was pressed by something and half of his arm was numb. He felt a numb and itchy feeling when he moved.
He endured the discomfort and looked down at the initiator. It turned out that it was Zhu Ying who had fallen asleep on his palm. She was sleeping soundly at this moment, her long eyelashes were closed on her eyelids like cattail fans, and her cheeks were as red as sweet and delicious.
The big apple makes people want to take a bite. He wanted to take out his palm only to find that there was saliva on his palm.
Zhao Yu saw how uncomfortable she was sleeping, and turned sideways to lift her onto the bed, but his arms couldn't use even half of the strength.
Ding Yi sat on a chair in the outer room to rest but never fell asleep. He was always paying attention to the movements of his master. Zhao Yu's subtle noise had awakened him. He immediately strode to his master and asked: "Master——"
Zhao Yu felt annoyed because he was so powerless.
"Hel me up!"
Ding Yi wanted to help her master up, but Zhu Ying held down his master's arm. When his master moved, she wrapped one of her jade arms around him and hugged his entire forearm.
Ding Yi was about to shake her awake, but Zhao Yu stopped him.
"Bring her up!"
Ding Yi was a little embarrassed. Is the master testing him? He posed such a problem. Men and women have been different since ancient times. What's more, she is the master's woman. How dare he touch his master's man in front of him?
Zhao Yu didn't want to use his hands on others, but he was really powerless. He reluctantly moved his body to make way for the bed. Ding Yi could only hug Zhu Ying. He retracted his hands into his sleeves and connected them to the end of the chair.
He got up and rolled Zhu Ying directly onto the bed.
Ding Yi wiped his sweat secretly. Fortunately, he cleverly came up with such a method.
He looked at his master, who had dissatisfaction in his eyes, blaming his method for being too rude and hurting Zhu Ying.
Ding Yi was really hit hard by 10,000 points at this moment. Even though he was careful, he was still disliked by his master. I really don’t know what is so good about this woman. She almost killed her master, but his master was so kind to her.
As soon as Zhu Ying got on the bed, she squirmed like a bug, squeezing left and right to squeeze Zhao Yu in a little more, and found a comfortable position to continue sleeping.
Ding Yi frowned in disgust, but Zhao Yu looked at her fondly. Ding Yi helped Zhao Yu sit up and placed a pillow behind him.
Zhao Yu moved his position, and Zhu Ying felt that the position was uncomfortable again. She twisted and rolled a few times again, her head pressed against Zhao Yu's side, and her arms were put on his waist. This time she finally fell asleep with satisfaction.
"Master, are you hungry? I'll tell the kitchen to make some porridge!"
Zhao Yu nodded, and Ding Yi called Shen Hou when he left.
Zhao Yu closed his eyes and felt Zhu Ying's gentle breathing, smelling the light medicinal fragrance coming from her body. He remembered that when he was dying yesterday, it was this elegant medicinal fragrance that attracted him again and again.
The earth was pulled back from the gate of hell.
Shen Hou came in with toiletries, and he helped Zhao Yu wash up.
Zhao Yu asked: "What's wrong with me? I don't have any strength at all?"
Shen Hou explained the cause and effect of the matter.
After a while, Ding Yi came back with the cooked chicken porridge, and the aroma in the room suddenly woke up everyone in the room.
Everyone was so hungry after not eating for a whole day and night. Zhu Ying suddenly sat up and looked at the chicken porridge in Ding Yi's hand. Nong Zhu swallowed his saliva loudly and unceremoniously. Several other adults
Although men are also hungry, they restrain themselves.
"Your Majesty has just woken up. He is weak and needs nourishment." Ding Yi didn't need to say this, but he was really afraid that Zhu Ying would come up to take the food. The master would definitely give it to her when the time came.
Zhu Ying's mind was still in a daze, but when she heard that Zhao Yu had woken up, she immediately came to her senses. She happily hugged him and shouted cheerfully: "You're awake, you're finally awake. You know how worried I am about you."
? If you really can't wake up... I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. I'm sorry, it's all because I was too arrogant and made you suffer."
She spoke a lot, her eyes were red, and there were happy tears in the corners of her eyes.
Seeing how much she cared about him, Zhao Yu felt warm in his heart and felt that all the suffering he had suffered was worth it.
"Fool, am I okay now?" Then he said with a cold look in his eyes, "I know who doesn't like me!"
Zhu Ying burst into tears and laughed, unable to hear the underlying meaning in Zhao Yu's words.
She asked softly: "Are you hungry?"
Zhao Yu nodded, enjoying Zhu Ying's tenderness.
"I'll feed you!"
Zhao Yu nodded again. He was a responsibility and a use to Zhu Ying before, but now seeing her true feelings revealed, a surge of sweetness and happiness surged in his heart.
Maybe keeping her by your side is really a good choice?
The two of them were like an old married couple playing music and singing. When Nongzhu saw it, her heart was in turmoil. She felt that this was inappropriate and she should do something.
After Zhu Ying washed up, she went to take the chicken porridge from Ding Yi's hand. Ding Yi's intuition told him that the final destination of the bowl of porridge was Zhu Ying's stomach, but he could not go against his master's wishes and had to reluctantly hand over the chicken porridge.
Zhu Ying.
Zhu Ying was very attentive in feeding Zhao Yu porridge at first. She scooped a spoonful of porridge, blew it to cool and then put it in his mouth. Zhao Yu ate very gracefully, chewing slowly and very well-educated. Zhu Ying smelled the fragrance.
The strong taste couldn't help but take a bite. Ding Yi wanted to stop but Zhao Yu stopped him with his eyes. In the end, Zhao Yu took one bite and Zhu Ying took two.
Ding Yi saw this and shook his head unconsciously. He knew it would end up like this. Seeing the two of them eating happily without anyone else around, the people in the room were so hungry that they couldn't bear it anymore and went out to find food for themselves.
Zhao Yu had a bad appetite after recovering from a serious illness. He couldn't eat less than half of the bowl, so Zhu Ying simply crossed her legs and started eating with the bowl in her arms.
That gesture made Ding Yi shake his head again. How could this be a model for a lady? Even Xiaoyue was more generous and decent than her. If she really entered the palace, wouldn't she make the prince laugh at her generosity?
However, after these few days of getting along with each other, Zhu Ying became closer and closer to Zhao Yu. Even she didn't realize that she talked more to Zhao Yu and no longer concealed herself.
"Zhao Yu, who are the people who killed you? Do you want to call Su Jianguo over and ask?"
Ding Yi reminded dissatisfiedly: "Pay attention to your identity!"
How could the prince's name be easily picked up by a commoner?
"Can't you call me?" Zhu Ying raised her face and looked at Zhao Yu, with hope in her eyes, "I also call you Sima Jian by name and surname."
"Sima?" Zhao Yu suddenly felt a sense of danger, "Who is he? This surname is very noble in Si You Country!"
"Is there any?" Zhu Ying didn't think so, "Isn't it just a symbol used to distinguish people?"
After hearing this, Zhao Yu smiled softly and didn't think much about anything else. He said softly: "You can call me whatever you want!"
Ding Yi was speechless: It's over, it's over, the prince is no longer the prince he knew.
Zhu Ying continued to ask: "Who wants to kill you? Is it the emperor?"
Zhao Yu said meaningfully: "It's hard to say!"
Zhu Ying said: "Are these assassins the same people who were assassinated when you entered the city?"
Ding Yi looked at Zhu Ying alertly and said, "How did you know?"
Zhao Yu suddenly understood and said: "You are the person in the carriage? Did you put the mist incense?"
Zhu Ying was no longer hiding anything, and said: "I gave you the antidote too. I saw you fighting, and you didn't look like bad guys, so I helped you!"
Ding Yi felt that something was fishy and asked: "Then why did you lie to us in the first place?"
Zhu Ying said: "We didn't know each other well at that time, and you were so fierce. Dare I say that? But I have never harmed you. Meeting each other in Mubentang was purely a coincidence."
Ding Yi asked reluctantly: "What are you doing in Biancheng?"
Zhu Ying began to hate Ding Yi's rudeness, but she suppressed her dissatisfaction for the sake of his loyalty to protect the Lord.
"Looking for a medicine, it's only available here, and it's in the palace. I didn't know that my senior brother had passed away, so I wanted to use his identity to sneak into the palace. Later, I found out that you were the Fourteenth Prince, so I wanted to wait by your side.
When the time comes, I will follow you into the palace, don’t you also want to use me? You helped me once, and I also saved your life, so we are even."
Zhao Yu said: "Okay, we are even. But you still want to do something for me?"
Zhu Ying readily agreed.
"Okay, but you have to take me to the palace!"
Zhao Yu also said cheerfully: "What's so difficult about this? You can go wherever you want to become my king's concubine!"
Zhu Ying unexpectedly returned to the old topic. Although she no longer wanted to draw a clear line with Zhao Yu as much as she did at first, she hesitated again when she thought about her identity. She jumped out of bed and said, "I'll go find Su Jianguo and ask."
Ask, does he know anything about those assassins?"
Zhao Yu sneered and said: "I can't find the mastermind behind the tomb. What ability does he have to find out? I'm afraid he can just arrest a few people to make up the numbers!"
"No way! I don't think the emperor wants to kill you, otherwise he wouldn't have let Eunuch Jiang come, and even brought Xu Mubai with him. How could I, the master's nephew, be with Eunuch Jiang again?"
Zhao Yu sneered and said: "He wants me to die, but I am still valuable now and he can't kill me!"
Zhu Ying tilted her head and looked at Zhao Yu and said, "I have a question that I can't figure out. The emperor wants to kill you so much, but why does he use such a complicated method to kill you?"
Zhao Yu's eyes sank, and he looked at the ceiling without saying a word for a long time. After a long time, he said, "I also want to know."
Zhu Ying looked at his depressed look and comforted him: "After you sit in that position, we will examine him carefully."
Zhao Yu was amused by her, and the gloom between his brows was swept away. He had never met such a warm person since the death of General Chen Chong.
Zhao Yu looked at her passionately and asked again: "Will you be my king's concubine?"
Zhu Ying felt a strange burning feeling in her heart, and she was horrified. This was not her purpose. She had never thought about staying with King Chun, let alone becoming Princess Chun. She wanted to return to Si Youguo.
She was going to the other side of the sea, and her identity... She couldn't imagine how Zhao Yu would look when he knew her true identity...
