Chapter 12

There was no incense in the room, and the smell of traditional Chinese medicine was lingering. Xiangxiang lowered her head, and it was the first time that she looked at the body in such a bright and broad daylight.

The body of an adult man has been tempered in the battlefield, and every muscle is thick and strong.The skin tone is not fair enough, it is wheat-colored, but it looks more powerful.

Xiangxiang was afraid of catching him cold, so she soaked in the hot water again before the sweat towel cooled down.When it got between her legs, Xiangxiang almost closed her eyes and dared not look at it.Murong Li was also a little emotional, and wanted to play tricks, Xiangxiang stepped back and whispered, "It will stretch the wound."

Murong Li really wanted to strangle her to death. Damn you made me like this, now you care about my wound?He made a gesture to get up, Xiangxiang turned around and ran out of the house.Zhang Wenxian was going to ask Xiangxiang how Murong Li's diet was, but before he got any closer, he heard Murong Li's roar coming from the room.He shrank his neck and disappeared automatically.

Xiangxiang ran back to Xijiange, Xiao Xuanxuan was already awake, and was being held and played by the peasant woman Cui.Xiangxiang held the child in her arms. The child was indeed a lot heavier. She felt sweet in her heart. This is her flesh and blood. It's amazing.Xiao Xuanxuan doesn't like to cry, and she is quiet in her arms, with her dark eyes open, and sometimes she reaches out to grab her hair.

After Xiangxiang played with her for a while, sleepiness slowly came to him.She rushed all the way back to Jinyang City from Pingdu Pass, feeding medicine and making soup for Murong Li before resting.After all the tossing and tossing just now, I was really exhausted.She hugged the baby and coaxed her for a while, then went to rest in the house.

Listening to Fengyuan, Murong Li is furious - damn, the child is born, why are you running?Now that I have an adulterer, I can't touch him anymore?

Bitch!In the future, I will chop up the adulterer and feed it to the mother dog. You should at least put on the trousers for me before leaving!
Furious, if you guys hook up for a few days, why don't you kill your husband with poison!
Xiangxiang only slept for an hour, and when she got up, she asked Bizhu to lead the two maids in the small kitchen to cut the Guyuan paste powder soaked at noon into various shapes, put them in the steamer and steam them.Then he made a stewed squab. Bizhu felt distressed when she saw it, and said, "Ma'am, you haven't eaten a bite since you came back. You should eat some too!"

It was only now that Xiangxiang remembered that she was really hungry, so she also took two pieces of Guyuan ointment to pad her stomach.Fearing that Murong Li would be impatient to wait, she brought the pigeon and Guyuan ointment over.

Doctor Zhang was outside the courtyard, rubbing his hands anxiously.Xiangxiang asked: "Mrs. Zhang? What's the matter?"

Zhang Wen said bitterly: "My lord didn't drink the medicine, so he just beat me out."

Xiangxiang understood: "I'll send it in."

Zhang Wen seemed to be pardoned: "Mrs. Lao, Mrs. Lao!" You saved our lives!

Xiangxiang brought all the food and medicine in, and Murong Li was hiding on the bed and getting angry-can he let Zhang Wen show in!Damn no pants!

Xiangxiang came in and hit the muzzle of the gun!

"Bitch!" he scolded through gritted teeth!Xiangxiang took a step back, and passed two pieces of Guyuan ointment from a distance.

Murong was so angry—you are fucking feeding the bears!Hurry up and put on my pants!
Seeing that his eyes were about to burst into flames, Xiangxiang didn't know what she did wrong.The two confronted each other for a while, and Murong Li took the Guyuan ointment with his hands - he didn't want to calm down, it seemed that she didn't dare to come over.Sure enough, Xiangxiang was somewhat relieved when he saw that he had picked up the things, and hurriedly dragged a stool over, placed the Guyuan ointment in front of his bed, and then sat on the small stool by herself, deboning the pigeon.

Murong Li ate two pieces of pastries, which were mixed with donkey-hide gelatin, so sticky that they melted in the mouth.It tasted good, and he was in a better mood after all, and he couldn't say much if he asked her to put the pants on for him.Can't help feeling resentful, damn it, I'll wear it myself later.I still don't believe it, you can die if you put on your own pants?It's fucking painful though.

Xiangxiang took the small silver scissors, and slowly picked the bones, the scent faintly entered the nostrils with the smoke, um, it was quite attractive.

Xiangxiang fed him meat with chopsticks, Murong Li ate it and drank some soup.Although the taste is not heavier than the usual dishes, it is not unpalatable.

He said, "Hot the pot of wine!"

Xiangxiang objected: "No, the imperial doctor said you can't drink alcohol."

Murong glared at her sharply: "What did you say?"

Xiangxiang stepped back quickly, and whispered, "You can't drink."

Murong Li grabbed the pillow and wanted to throw it over, but when he tried hard, he couldn't catch his breath—the gun wounded his lungs.

Xiangxiang hurriedly said, "I'll get it, I'll get it!"

She turned around and went out, Murong Li tried to put on the pants, but it really didn't work, if you want to put on a pair of pants, first of all, you have to get at least this pair of pants.Xiangxiang hung his trousers on the hanger, but he couldn't even get them.

Xiangxiang went back to wash Jiange, and dug out the plum wine brewed earlier from the yard. The wine was already very mellow.Anyway, plum wine also promotes blood circulation, so it should be fine to drink less, right?She took another look at the list made by Doctor Zhang, and seeing that there was no such taboo, she finally boiled a pot.

Murong Li took a sip, thinking that this could be considered wine?Alas, but that's all, just let it go.

Xiangxiang poured it for him, only to find that the trousers were still hanging on the hanger, and lifted the quilt to put it on for him.Murong snorted, and suddenly said: "Help me to the latrine!" If you dare to say no to this, I will strangle you immediately!
Xiangxiang said, "No, you can't get out of bed yet..."

Murong Li really had heard enough of the word no, he had heard more in one day than in his whole life!He said angrily: "Get out! Let Guan Jue come!" With the pants on, he can see people again!Damn, this woman talks too much, Guan Jue is still obedient!

Xiangxiang stepped back, supporting the table with both hands.Murong glared at her—didn't you understand?Xiangxiang didn't go, if Guan Jue came, he wouldn't dare to disobey Murong Li's order, and would definitely help him out of bed, and then the wound would be stretched.

Murong Li was about to explode the rest of his lungs, you bastard woman!You want me to solve it on the bed?

Xiangxiang didn't know what to do, this matter - she thought about it and said, "I'll ask Doctor Zhang!"

Murong Li really lost to her!He waved his hand weakly: "There is a chamber pot under the bed, bring it up."

Xiangxiang waited until Murong Li fell asleep before leaving, but in fact Murong Li woke up as soon as she left.If he is injured again, as long as he is not dead, his vigilance will not be low.He opened his eyes and saw the setting sun entering the window lattice, and the golden dust floating slowly in the sunlight.Because he was seriously injured, the imperial doctor told him not to see the wind, and the window was only opened a little, so he couldn't see the scenery outside in late summer and early autumn.Murong Li suddenly felt a little bored. He had never had such a time when he had nothing to do in his life.When a person is lying in bed, unable to move, sleeps too much, and thinks clearly, he will inevitably think of some people and things.

He was tired of this feeling, but he couldn't stop thinking about it.King Yan's body is no longer what it used to be, so it's time to think about the future.If he had any accidents, would he and Murong Bo flee in a hurry with the whole family?Has this woman slept with Han Xu?When he thought of that gentle and delicate body, trembling and crying under his brother's body, and getting comfort and satisfaction, he burned with anger.Han Xu is not in front of him now, otherwise he would have been chopped into pieces.But even so, he never thought that he shouldn't have blocked that shot at the beginning, never thought about it.

Xiangxiang cleaned the chamber pot, and when she came in, she smelled a strong smell of medicine—Murong Li used several kinds of wound medicine internally and externally.With such a strong smell of medicine, anyone would be irritable even lying in it, right?She picked a bunch of chrysanthemums in full bloom from outside.When she entered, she moved very lightly, thinking that Murong Li had fallen asleep and didn't want to wake him up.Murong Li didn't speak.I saw her insert the chrysanthemums into the vase next to it, trim the branches and leaves with small flower scissors, and spray the fragrant dew.

Murong Li looked at her profile and found that this woman was very serious no matter what she did.Even if it's just such a small matter as cutting flowers and leaves, she can focus on it like painting a scroll handed down from generation to generation.How can there be such a person who regards mediocrity as great happiness?
Xiangxiang arranged the flowers, carefully picked up the scattered leaves and went out, Murong Li thought she had gone back to tease her daughter, he knew it was her treasure.

But after a while, she came back again.Murong Li was surprised - it's not like he didn't know that she didn't want to stay by his side.

Xiangxiang held a plate of Guyuan ointment in her hand, Murong Li has a lot of taboos now, this can be used as a pastry.She put the pastry away and said, "I'm going to study for the prince, what does the prince want to hear?"

Murong Li snorted coldly: "Did this king tell you to study?" You said it like a charity, who cares?
Xiangxiang froze, as if she hadn't heard it, picked up a copy of "Famous General Records", and asked, "How about this one?"

Murong Li glanced at it and said, "I've seen it since I was six years old."

Xiangxiang got up and said, "Then I'll go to Wang Ye's study to look for it? What does Wang Ye want to see?"

Murong Li glared - don't you know that warriors hate reading the most?Before he could say anything, he suddenly said: "There is a copy of "Dayan Secret Records", please take it here."

Xiangxiang responded, do you have this book?Have not heard.I haven't read many books, so I don't know if it will be too difficult...I thought about it all the way, and took it all the way.Murong Li motioned for her to sit on the head of his bed, and Xiangxiang sat down as promised. He half closed his eyes and let Xiangxiang read.

As soon as Xiangxiang read the beginning, her face turned red, and the whole article read "A certain concubine of Duofeng died, and the scholar of Zhanyean showed mercy".She frowned slightly, read each word slowly, her voice became lower and lower, Murong Li closed her eyes, the voice in her ears didn't stop, unexpectedly it wasn't too noisy.He cherishes his time all his life, and rarely has such leisure time.Now that I can't move, listening to these lewd works, I suddenly feel that lying down like this is not too bad.

Xiangxiang was chanting, and then looked down at him, and saw that he was looking at the chrysanthemum in the corner of the room, and she didn't know what he was thinking, so she had to bite the bullet and continue reading.After reading half a book like this, Murong Li finally closed his eyes and seemed to fall asleep.Xiangxiang saw that it was getting late, and it was time to prepare dinner for him, so she just put down her book and went out quietly.

After she left, Murong Li took a piece of Guyuan Cake and chewed it in his mouth.That thing is soft and glutinous, not too sweet.However, because of the walnut crumbs, the lips and teeth are soaked in a strong fragrance.

When Xiangxiang returned to Xijiange, Xiao Xuanxuan had already eaten milk. At this time, Cui Shi carried her out for a walk. The sun had already set outside, and the weather was just right.She waved her small arms in the setting sun, babbling.Xiangxiang's eyes were soft, and she kissed her delicate cheek in the past. She whimpered and turned her head, and Xiangxiang's face was covered with saliva.Cui couldn't help laughing out loud, and hurriedly took the handkerchief to wipe it for her.

Xiangxiang wiped her face and went to the small kitchen, afraid that the oily smoke would suffocate the child, so she didn't let Mrs. Cui in.She looked at the ingredients that Guan Jue sent over in the evening, and felt that Murong Li probably couldn't stand a light diet, so she asked Bizhu to find some big lotus leaves.She was in the kitchen by herself, soaking the glutinous rice, cooking ginkgo and chestnuts, and then cutting the chicken into pieces.Add oil to a hot pan, sauté the meat until fragrant, add seasonings and stir-fry until cooked, then steam the glutinous rice.At this time, together with Bizhu, take out the steamed glutinous rice, put the fully cooked chicken, ginkgo, and chestnuts into the glutinous rice, and wrap it in lotus leaves.Tie the lotus leaves with cotton thread, put them in a steamer, and steam until the lotus leaves change color.

After the glutinous rice chicken was ready, Xiangxiang saw that there were still good lotus roots, so she took a few pig's trotters, boiled water for a while to remove the foam, then heated the oil, poured sugar, and put in the pig's trotters.Add a little water and cook over high heat.When the pork trotter bones and meat are about to leave, take out the trotters and drain them, then put them into a small pot, add water and seasonings, and simmer slowly.By the way, peel the lotus root and cut into pieces, put it in a small pot and simmer over low heat.Add sweet and sour sauce, salt, etc.This kind of pig's trotter soup replenishes qi, nourishes blood and promotes muscle growth, which is also quite good for external injuries.Xiangxiang filled up the pig's trotters and soup, and carried the food box over.

Imperial Physician Zhang still delivered the medicine to her, and when Xiangxiang entered Tingfengyuan, Murong Li had almost eaten up the Guyuan Ointment.

Seeing her come in, Murong Li originally wanted to sit up, but he couldn't, so Xiangxiang hurried over to help him.After he sat down, Xiangxiang set out the glutinous rice chicken and pig's trotter soup.In fact, two people can't eat a lot, and these are enough.

Remembering that Doctor Zhang said to drink the medicine first, Xiangxiang blew the medicine to cool down and brought it over.Murong Li took it, but still drank it all in one gulp.Then Xiangxiang fed something into his mouth, which was sweet and relished, overshadowing the bitterness of the traditional Chinese medicine in an instant.

Murong Li didn't ask what it was, but Xiangxiang smiled: "Candied fruit." Murong Li didn't take it seriously, a little bit of bitterness was nothing.

Xiangxiang took out the glutinous rice chicken, lotus root and pig's trotters, still picked the bones, and fed the meat to him.

It was only at this time that Murong Li felt that he had some appetite, and he ate two glutinous rice chickens and a cup of pig's trotter soup.Xiangxiang waited until he was almost done eating before gnawing on the remaining pig's trotters.The way she eats is not the elegant and refined style of a lady or son of aristocratic family, or she eats casually, and doesn't care whether it is ugly or not, making people feel that she has a good appetite at a glance.It wasn't until she ate the pig's trotters and half a glutinous rice chicken that Murong Li realized that he was actually watching a woman eat like this.Tsk, how boring.

Xiangxiang put away the bowls and chopsticks, fetched hot water again, and wiped his hands and face for him.Physician Zhang came in, saw the appearance of the two of them, lowered his head and dared not look at it: "My lord, it's time for you to change your medicine."

Murong Li said: "Let it go."

Zhang Wenxian was stunned—put it down?What's the meaning?
Still Xiangxiang said: "I don't know what medicines are available. Mr. Zhang can give me some pointers. I will change them for the prince."

Doctor Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it would be nice to have a wife!In a hurry, he told me which medicine to use and how to use it, and Xiangxiang wrote it down carefully.

Doctor Zhang still didn't dare to leave, so he stood by.Xiangxiang gently unwrapped Murong Li's wound. Even though she knew the injury must be serious, she was still taken aback when the wound was exposed in front of her.The giant arrow almost pierced a transparent hole in Murong Li's body!She moved very lightly, looking at Murong Li's face from time to time.Murong Li closed his eyes slightly, not looking at her, and there was no expression of extreme pain on his face.Xiangxiang untied the medicinal gauze lightly, and applied new medicine. Doctor Zhang pointed out which medicine should be applied where, Xiangxiang's movements were neat.

After the medicine was changed, Xiangxiang sent Imperial Physician Zhang out, only then did Imperial Physician Zhang dare to say to her in a low voice: "Ma'am, your lord's injury is very dangerous. You must persuade me... intercourse... and try to avoid it..." As he spoke, his face flushed so fragrantly that he could only nod his head, unable to say anything.

After Doctor Zhang left, Xiangxiang went to wash her hands, and then brought Xuanxuan to play.When Murong Li saw her coming in with her daughter in his arms, he suddenly felt, um, this is his woman, his daughter.Reaching out to touch Xuanxuan's face, Xuanxuan was having a good time, but when she saw him, she burst into tears.

Murong Li withdrew his hand, his brows were furrowed—children are really troublesome.

Just as Xiangxiang was about to speak, he said in a deep voice, "Hold it out."

Xiangxiang smiled slightly, lowered her eyes in response, and went out with Xuanxuan in her arms.Murong Li saw that the smile on her brows slowly dissipated, and couldn't help feeling a little annoyed—but if you were to be coaxed by the nanny, why are you like this?
Xiangxiang didn't come back in the evening, and Murong was so angry - just say a word, how dare you embarrass me!If you don't come, you won't be allowed to come!I sent you to serve alone?Damn Guan Jue, this bastard doesn't want his head anymore!How dare you not even see a shadow for several days in a row!
He was angry when there was a noise outside, but Xiangxiang came in again. Seeing that he was still awake, she said softly, "Xuanxuan had a good time, and went to bed late."

Murong Li said coldly: "Go back to sleep! You don't need to take care of this place."

Xiangxiang asked softly, "Would the lord want some water?"

Murong Li didn't speak, she handed over the water again.Murong Li drank a few sips, Xiangxiang put down the silver hook for him.There is a bed in the outer room, of course there is a night watch girl in the palace, but Murong Li didn't like people sleeping outside his bedroom, so he withdrew.

However, the bed was still there, and Xiangxiang made it, so she slept here with her clothes on.She has been busy all day, how can an hour's rest be enough?At this time, I fell asleep as soon as my head touched the pillow.

Murong Li couldn't sleep because he slept for too long during the day.He opened his eyes, looked at the bottom of the tent, and heard her faint breathing.He was a little dissatisfied again - the child was born, so he couldn't sleep next to Lao Tzu?

Xiangxiang really didn't intend to sleep next to him, this is Tingfengyuan, Lanyou's former residence.Murong Li should really hate her here, right?That's why he was so upset when she brought her daughter in.She was cautious, not daring to touch a single flower or leaf here, she was afraid that it might be some favorite thing of Lan Lane, if it got messed up or broken, it might make him angry again.

Murong Li opened his eyes until dawn, and actually hoped that she would wake up, strangely, it turned out that he felt that lying down was not so bad because there was this noisy woman beside him.It would be too bad if she fell asleep too.

Xiangxiang slept until the sky was dark, after all, she took a nap for an hour during the day and woke up earlier than usual.She got up, washed herself, and fetched water again.Murong Li let her wipe his face and hands, and Xiang Xiang wiped them clean for him, then asked: "My lord...do you want to use the potty?"

As soon as the words came out, she herself blushed.Murong Li saw that she was blushing like an apple, so he was not so embarrassed, he snorted coldly, and said: "Bring it here." In fact, there is nothing to blush, it's just human instinct to eat and drink.

After Xiangxiang served him, he opened the window a little bit to let in the air, smoked some spices with the censer, and removed the censer after the smell completely dissipated.Then put a bunch of fresh chrysanthemums back into the vase, sprayed with dew.The scented dew is made by extracting the juice from flowers. The aroma is lighter than spices, but it is natural and elegant.People like scents, but smelling spices may not make them feel happy.It's a strange animal. While artificially making spices, it yearns for natural aromas.

There are a lot of seasonal fruits in autumn, and Xiangxiang made fruit milk soup for him for breakfast.Fearing that he would not be full, he made another porridge with preserved egg and lean meat.Murong Li let her feed him mouthful, unexpectedly he didn't feel ashamed.Well, after being taken care of by her for two days, it feels like my waist is getting thicker.

After Xiangxiang fed him and put the dishes and chopsticks into the food box, Murong Li frowned: "Don't the servants do anything?" You need to do everything, why did you come back to find them?
Xiangxiang said: "I just put it away." Then he put it in the outside room and asked the servants to clean it up.

She helped Murong Li wipe her mouth, and then said: "Shall I help the prince comb his hair?"

Surprisingly, Murong Li just hummed, and Xiangxiang didn't use Murong Li's jade comb, but took her own mahogany comb and gently combed his hair.

Murong Li closed his eyes, feeling the comb teeth gently pressing his scalp.The sunlight enters the house and dances lightly on the flowers indoors.This is a feeling that he has never had before. He has a peaceful mind. He has never tried to get along with women like this. Most of the way to get along with women before is to go to bed.Lanyou is better, she will accompany her to ride, shoot and hunt, and if she disagrees with her, she will glare and say: "You fart!" If she is by her side, she will probably be very worried when she sees him injured.But at most, it is just a few questions—"Aren't you going to die?" "Why are you still not well?"

Thinking of that lively person all day long, Murong Li couldn't help but smile again.

Xiangxiang asked, "Is there any itching?"

Murong Li didn't answer, Xiangxiang looked down and saw him wandering off, immersed in another time.

Xiangxiang stopped talking.

Xiangxiang no longer brought Xuanxuan into Tingfengyuan. Murong Li often lay down, so she massaged his body, fearing that if he did not exercise for a long time, it would be bad for him.

Doctor Zhang agrees very much, and often tells her how to press. Xiangxiang learns it very seriously, and she is very serious in everything she does.

Murong Li felt that those small hands rubbed his body very well, and he couldn't help feeling in his heart, um, this is quite comfortable.No wonder people say that it is the tomb of heroes in Wenrou Township.

Zhou Zhuo, Han Xu, and Yan Qing originally intended to come to visit Murong Li, but a person like Murong Li would never lie on the bed with disheveled clothes to see a visitor.Doctor Zhang was afraid of making too much trouble, so he blocked it several times.

Several people wondered if something had happened to Murong Li, and seeing that they were in a hurry, Imperial Physician Zhang finally asked Murong Li for instructions.Murong Li didn't care, and asked, "I'm under house arrest?"

Physician Zhang's complexion changed, fearing that the evil star might misunderstand, he hurriedly said: "No, no, I'm just worried about the prince's health..."

Murong Li snorted coldly, and said to Xiangxiang beside him, "Changing clothes for me."

Xiangxiang helped him change his clothes, tied his hair into a bun, and pinned it with a hosta.Han Xu, Zhou Zhuo, and Yan Qing didn't enter until he finished changing.

Murong Li was helped up and leaned against the head of the bed. He scanned all the people in front of him, and when he saw Han Xu, he couldn't help but glared.

Han Xu was so stared at him that he felt guilty, so he immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at him.Only then did Murong Li ask: "What's the matter?"

Zhou Zhuo glanced at Han Xu. In the past, it was Han Xu who answered most of the calls.Today he didn't open his mouth, so Zhou Zhuo could only say: "I can't see the prince for a few days, the brothers in the camp are very worried."

Murong Li understood that he was Murong Bo's finger, if anything happened to him, the big tree of Murong Bo would collapse immediately.Second, he led the rebellion, and everyone was still worried that King Yan would deal with him privately.If we can't see each other all day long, of course people are panicking outside.

Murong Li said: "When you see them, they shouldn't have any worries anymore."

Zhou Zhuo understood what he meant, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes. The general will appease all the troops in the end."

Murong grinned, and turned to look at Han Xu.Han Xu kept his head down, and didn't dare to glance at Xiangxiang.Murong Li is quite satisfied - if you dare to look around, you really have to be careful with your eyes.Then when I saw Xiangxiang standing beside him with her head down, she couldn't help being angry again—damn, you two still have a tacit understanding!Well, restraint, don't get angry.Otherwise, it seemed that he cared about that woman very much.

He said: "Han Xu." No, I really want to kill this damn thing!
Han Xu said, "The end is here."

As expected, Murong Li restrained himself and asked, "How about the post-war pensions for the brothers?"

Han Xudao: "All are arranged for the battle against Xijing, and the compensation will be paid for those who died in the war. The money has already been issued by the imperial court. Zhou Zhuo and I personally supervised it, and the accountant Mr. Yunzhou sent it out. There is no problem."

Only then did Murong Li nod his head. Han Xu is a good guy.He said: "Go back, guard the borders that should be garrisoned, and garrison those that should be garrisoned. Don't run to me if you have nothing to do. Do I have treasures here?"

Of course Zhou Zhuo and the others wanted to go back to the station, but he hadn't seen anyone for the past few days, and everyone was worried, so they stayed in Jinyang all the time.Now that I have him, I really should go back.

Yan Qing said: "Your Majesty, King Yan's health is not as good as before. We are leading the army outside. After all, far away water can't save the near fire. According to my subordinates, General Han is still in Jinyang City, and he often visits the mansion in case The prince has ulterior motives."

Han Xu's expression changed!Damn you want me to die!No wonder the nickname Lengtouqing!It really lives up to its name, not bad at all!
Yan Qing suddenly received his glaring gaze, and couldn't help but startled—what was wrong with me?My loyalty can be shown to the sun and the moon!

Han Xu only felt a splitting headache, and Murong Li also stared at Yan Qing with a gloomy look.Yan Qing broke out in a cold sweat, begging to look at Zhou Zhuo—brother, what did I do wrong?
Zhou Zhuo didn't respond to him, Murong Li took another deep breath.Some people are like dumb when they don't speak, and you can't wait to poison him into dumb when he speaks.

Fortunately, Doctor Zhang came in at this time, and said softly: "Generals, the prince is not feeling well. Generals, please don't bother me too much."

Several people breathed a sigh of relief as if they had been pardoned. When it was time to leave, Han Xu turned around and glanced around Murong Li from the corner of his eyes, only seeing the corner of Xiangxiang's exquisitely embroidered skirt.

After leaving Tingfengyuan, Zhou Zhuo asked: "What happened between you and the lord?" It seemed that he didn't want to see you very much, which was a rare thing.

Yan Qing was also wondering, and immediately asked: "Yes, aren't you usually the best at pleasing the prince?"

Han Xu walked forward sullenly, without saying a word.Zhou Zhuo chased after him with a serious face: "The prince was shot at Jinyang City last time. According to his reaction, it's not that he couldn't dodge it. You should know why he didn't dodge!"

Han Xu was ashamed and angry: "Enough!"

Zhou Zhuo strode up to him, blocked his way, put his hand on his shoulder, and asked, "We are brothers, aren't we?"

Han Xu looked into his eyes and sighed softly for a long time.Of course they are brothers, how many times have they lived and died together in ten years.

Zhou Zhuo pressed his shoulder slightly harder: "What happened?"

Han Xu said: "It's nothing." It's nothing but my delusional thoughts, my most shameless and hopeless hopes.He said weakly: "I'm going back to Pingduguan. I'll leave in the afternoon. Zhou Zhuo, you stay at home for a while. Taiwei Zhou is here, and King Yan will not rush you. If you have any news, you can immediately report it to me and Yan." Qing. Take care of yourself."

He turned around to leave, Zhou Zhuo asked, "Han Xu, you are loyal to the prince, right?"

Han Xu said: "Always, forever."

Definitely.

After exiting the four words, Yan Qing suddenly said behind him: "Mrs. Xiang."

Xiangxiang said softly, "General Yan doesn't need to be too polite."

The voice was as gentle and delicate as ever, Han Xu didn't look back, straightened his waist, and strode away.It was the end of October at that time, the sun was low, and half of the golden light sprinkled on the sycamore trees, and the other half splashed on him.

He walked across the painted bridge, and the smoked willows were withered.It is the sad autumn grass above, and the waves of clear water below.

Even if you have saved Madam's life, you can't be so rude, right?What a face!Zhou Zhuo cursed secretly, and smoothed things over with a smile: "It's rude not to greet Madam when he sees him. He's going back to the station in the afternoon, and he's in a hurry to go home to meet his parents. There's something wrong with etiquette, Madam, don't wait for me. Common sense of the rough."

Xiangxiang forced a smile: "General Zhou is serious."

She turned around and went back to Xijiange, and from the corner of her eyes, she saw that figure gradually drifting away, slowly disappearing into the autumn water and long sky.

Do you believe that one day, no matter how deep your love is, it will eventually lose to time and become an illusion?
In the evening, after Xiangxiang coaxed Xiao Xuanxuan, she still came to Tingfengyuan and slept on the small bed outside.Just lying down, I heard Murong Li say: "Come in."

Xiangxiang was startled, thinking that he wanted to drink water, so she hurried into the room: "What's the matter, my lord?" While speaking, she was about to pour water.

Murong Li said: "Come here." Xiangxiang had no choice but to walk over, Murong Li said: "Sleep here."

Xiangxiang was slightly startled, and said: "But..." Isn't Tingfengyuan a place of blue glaze?Didn't you sleep with him in this bed?Can I... can I sleep here?

After hesitating for a while, Murong became impatient: "Didn't understand?" Is this difficult to understand?

Xiangxiang had no choice but to lie down beside him, and he glared: "Take off your clothes!" It's so cold, isn't it uncomfortable for you to sleep like this?
Xiangxiang took off her jacket and got on the bed.Murong Li felt that it was much better this way, it was not so boring to have someone by his side.

Xiangxiang is not at ease, I'm afraid he will do something to embarrass him again.At this time, can he tell who is sleeping next to him?
Murong Li said: "You don't have anything to say to me?"

Xiangxiang was stunned, of course they often slept together in the past, but in those days, Murong Li came here with only one purpose - to relieve the needs of the body, and then sleep.

It never occurred to him to listen to what she had to say.At this time, Xiangxiang suddenly asked, a little at a loss, and said softly: "My lord... what do you want to hear?" He probably wouldn't be interested in the short daughter's trivial matters of the parents, would he?
Murong Li raised his eyebrows, that's true, he really seldom listens to people chatting.Han Xu, Zhou Zhuo and the others, besides reporting military information, um, occasionally drank together.It seems that women were often talked about a long time ago.But whether it's military affairs, state affairs, wine, or women, it seems that they are not suitable for chatting with their own women.

He frowned: "What do you usually talk about with your parents... well, and your old lover?"

Xiangxiang blushed and said, "Brother Yu Qing? Let's... talk about the big white dog next door, the newly opened restaurant next to the tofu shop, the theater troupe in the city... um, yes, and..."

Before he finished speaking, Murong Li said: "Sleep!" Damn, I'm full and full, boring and low-level!
Xiangxiang didn't know why he was suddenly upset again, so she had to keep her mouth shut.As soon as he closed his eyes, Murong Li stretched out his hand, groping freely through the cloth.Xiangxiang was also dissatisfied and dared not speak.I had to think to myself, we are bored, besides this, what else have you done in bed!Could it be that in your eyes, this matter is considered very advanced!While being slandered, Murong Li said: "Come here."

Xiangxiang didn't understand why he was playing with her like this all of a sudden, but he restrained himself from messing around, it was just such a kiss that made her breathless.

She is just the daughter of an ordinary family, without a good background and no background.In the palace, she will never grow her own roots,
So there is only one step, step by step, to move forward cautiously, like walking on thin ice.Everything she gained in this mansion was because of Murong Li, and losing everything was probably just a change of his mind.He didn't need his own feelings, so she kept them well. He needed her to serve him, and she served him meekly and considerately.She doesn't dislike Murong Li either, she even has a little respect, so what he gives, she bears.Don't hate him, just don't love him either.

Murong Li teased her for a while, seeing that she was sweating profusely, he finally let her go and fell asleep in his arms.Seeing that he didn't mean to drive herself out of bed, Xiangxiang couldn't help closing her eyes, and fell asleep quietly after a while.

For Murong Li's injury, Imperial Physician Zhang estimated that an ordinary person would have to take care of it for a year or so no matter what.Of course, it is difficult for ordinary people to survive.This Prince Xun, after all, is also a nobleman, but his fate is as hard as a mouse and a cockroach.

Murong Li has been raised for more than a month, and Xiangxiang is taking care of him.In the past, it was just to prevent the prince from sending someone over to assassinate him. In fact, the injury was relieved later, and it could be handed over to the servants.There are also more servants going in and out of Tingfeng Garden.But Xiangxiang still likes to do many things by herself.She is a very careful person, with her, the servants don't know what to do.

From the moment Murong Li realized that he could move, he forced himself to go to the latrine.Letting a woman wait and use a potty to solve the problem is really... so disrespectful!At this time, he was already able to move, and he could no longer just bark his teeth and claws like before, and Xiangxiang didn't dare to fight with him, so he had to support him.Winter in Jinyang is coming, and the weather is getting colder and colder.On a cold night with no light under the stars and moon, she put on a thick fur coat for him, and helped him carefully go to the latrine.That place is certainly not very far away, but no matter how close it is, it also depends on how people move.According to his current way of moving, it is still not close.

Xiangxiang always holds the lantern in one hand and supports him with the other.Leaning on her shoulder, he walked all the way to the hut.Of course her shoulders are not broad, but they have a very stable strength.It's ridiculous that a woman can make a man like him feel safe.

When they arrived at the hut, Xiangxiang didn't care about anything else, so she had to follow in together.

Of course the hut used by King Xun was not as good as that in the Palace of King Yan, but it was also quite clean.Xiangxiang supported him carefully, not caring about being shy, and didn't dare to leave for a moment.He would even help him lift his pants and tie his belt.At this time, when he lowered his head, he could see her side face, which had a very demure and gentle outline.Sometimes when it was raining and snowing, she struggled to support him to avoid puddles on the ground.The light from the lantern was a bit dull, and reflected on the water surface, showing a warm orange-red color.After many times, Murong Li calmed down.

In late December, Yan Wang Wanshou Festival.Because of his serious illness years ago, it was inevitable that he paid more attention to ostentation this time, and held a banquet for thousands of seniors in Nonghua Garden.On the one hand, it is to celebrate birthdays, and on the other hand, it can be regarded as stabilizing the hearts of the officials and common people of Dayan.During the banquet, apart from 99 respected old birthday stars, all civil and military officials were also present.The great officials of the frontiers all over the country, the gift of the gift, the pilgrimage of the pilgrimage.Murong Li was able to get out of bed and walk around, so he ordered Guan Jue to prepare birthday gifts and prepare to enter the palace.Although Imperial Physician Zhang Wenxian still disapproved of him going out, there was nothing he could do - he wouldn't listen to what he said.

That night, the weather was fine.Murong Li brought Xiangxiang into the palace, originally with her status, she couldn't attend King Yan's birthday banquet.But Murong Li wants to take her with him, who would dare to drive her back?The waiters set up a seat next to Murong Li's desk with winking eyes, and Xiang Xiang sat next to him, which was convenient for him to take care of.

The banquet was handled by the queen and the head of internal affairs, Kang Jinzhong. Although Murong Li and the crown prince were at odds with each other, he paid great attention to avoiding food at this table.She is not a person who will follow the truth.

Murong Li refused to let Xiangxiang help him, and went into the Nonghua Garden alone.The weather is already cold, but the Nonghua Garden is full of vitality with brocade curtains, internal heating stoves, smoke from the jade platform, and blooming plum blossoms.

Xiangxiang followed behind him, a little cautious. After all, he came from a low family background and was not used to such occasions where noble people gathered.Speech and conversation are not as generous as the ladies.She didn't know most of the people passing by, and Murong Li certainly wouldn't introduce them.No matter who the other party is, he always greets Murong Li with a smile on his face, and then smiles at her.No need to introduce, although not many people have met her, Murong Li's only concubine is quite famous.

The two walked forward all the way, suddenly there was a person in front, wearing a brocade robe and jade belt with five claws and four dragon patterns, his facial features were somewhat similar to Murong Li's.Unable to dodge in time, the two bumped into each other, and that person's face turned pale first.Murong Li covered his face with frost, the man forced a smile and said: "Old Wu, are you feeling better?"

But it was Prince Murong Shen.Murong Li sneered: "Thanks to Second Brother's care, it's already much better."

Murong Shen wanted to leave, so he said bravely: "That's good, you can rest for a while." Where are the guards?They are all blind!
Murong Li stepped forward two steps, Murong Shen turned and ran.Although he has a few attendants with good martial arts skills, they may not be Murong Li's opponents - the tiger is deadly, look at those useless guys who are already trembling.Although turning around and running away would be detrimental to Chu Jun's dignity, but being beaten up by the public, wouldn't it be a shame to show his face?That is a stupid person, if he really wants to be beaten up here, the father will only give him a reprimand.In view of the seriousness of his injury, he might not even be able to part with the stick.Penalties are possible, but is he short of this money?Prince Xun's mansion even pays more for the servants than other mansions, maybe he even buys a monthly pass or something... Idiots don't run away!
Murong Li is wounded, but if it is as usual, as long as he is not dead, he will catch up.He is a mad dog personality, especially sensitive to things in motion.As soon as I saw that thing moving fast, I immediately had a conditioned reflex—what is it, catch it and see?But at this time he didn't catch up, Murong Shen was surprised.He turned around and saw a woman dragging him pitifully, her whole body was about to be hung on his arm: "My lord, you haven't recovered from your injury yet, the imperial doctor Zhang said..."

Murong said angrily, "Let go!"

Of course that woman was Xiangxiang. When she came, Doctor Zhang repeatedly told him not to let the prince move too much. If the wound was stretched again, it would heal more slowly.She was about to cry: "My lord..."

Murong Li withdrew his hand forcefully, and she staggered and sat on the ground.

Many people around looked over, and no one dared to step forward to persuade them to fight. Everyone had written on their foreheads - you can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me, say important things three times!There is a clever one who has already rushed to tell the king of Yan.

King Yan was calm, and asked Murong Bo beside him: "Son, look at how much Lao Wu's military achievements last time were worth. Can you count more? Now there is only Zhou Zhuo in Jinyang City. If you beat him hard, he will be afraid of him." I can't stand it... Zhou Ye will come to find Gu Suisianian again, you know how naughty he is..."

Murong Bo lowered his head, and even such a refined and elegant person thought——fuck it, Military Officer Dayan hasn't rebelled until today, so he really is a bitch...

Over there, Xiangxiang sat down on the ground, and Murong Li was also stunned——damn I withdrew my hand, don't you have feet?Can this also sit on the ground?

He took another look at Murong Shen, and finally reached out to pick Xiangxiang up from the ground.Seeing her crying, she thought, forget it, the prince is in the palace every day, so one day he can't fight.So he said, "Go, trouble!"

Xiangxiang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that he was no longer chasing him, and followed behind him with her head down like a little daughter-in-law.The two went all the way to the desk.

Murong Shen was still standing where he was - at this time a bunch of people came up to protect the crown prince, and he was angry, why didn't you wait for my father to die before coming back!
Over there, King Yan was about to meet his second son, who had a bruised nose and a swollen face, and then overwhelmed Murong Li's military achievements.Looking at Chu Jun's table, he found that his second son's face was still fair and handsome, and he couldn't help being taken aback.Ask Murong Bo next to him: "Finally, the fifth child has finally learned to hit people without slapping faces?"

Murong Bo suppressed his laughter, and said in a low voice, "It seems that he was persuaded by Lao Wu's concubine."

"Huh?" King Yan glanced at Murong Li's seat, and he was a little far away, only seeing a well-dressed woman sitting next to Murong Li.He nodded and said: "A good woman is hard to come by." Murong Bo nodded, and heard him say, "Get off the fire."

Such a father... Do you know how to write the word "old and disrespectful"?Murong Bo blushed.

Murong Xuan smiled, and suddenly asked: "Zixi, why rule the world?"

Zixi is his name, the King of Yan has never called it that, Murong Bo was startled, and said: "Give kindness to everyone, use benevolence to win, and make the world obey."

Murong Xuan said: "This is just one of them. To be a monarch, you must hold a sharp weapon in your hand and have a benevolent heart. Zixi, the king has two wings on his back, one wing is white, and the other is black. In times of crisis, light up the black wings to kill Stop killing. Wave your white wings when you are safe and peaceful, and let the common people survive."

Murong Bo was slightly stunned, Murong Xuan said: "Protect your sharp weapon well, if you are virtuous but incompetent, how can a country be a country?"

Murong Bo's expression of shock was beyond words—Is this the emperor father's intention to allow him to win the championship?

He didn't dare to ask more questions, but just bowed and said: "My son, please remember."

Murong Xuan waved his hand and said: "Stand back, let the crown prince come and accompany you."

Murong Shen had just seen his father talking to his elder brother, so he was unavoidably a little apprehensive when he came here at this time.This father has never been in good shape.Sometimes the courtiers tell nasty jokes, forcing all the courtiers to laugh and cry.He never talked about tactics with his generals. For example, someone reported that the old prime minister had secretly accepted a bribe of 5000 taels of silver.He directly said to the Prime Minister Xue Shaocheng: "Be less greedy, lest one day you will only look at your family's great fortune and make a fortune... It's nothing if you ruin your reputation, and you should be guilty of ruining the name of the lonely sage." die."

Xue Shaocheng couldn't laugh or cry, but since then, he never did anything out of the ordinary.

He would tell Taiwei Zhou Yi: "You have high prestige in the army, please support my son. If my son is less useful than your son in the future, he must be afraid. If he is afraid, why don't you kill your son? My son If you want to kill your son, it would be righteous if I don't lay hands on your hands, you still expect me to help you?"

As a grand tutor, Zhou Yi taught all the princes everything, and taught his sons everywhere to always remember the duty of being a courtier.Although his son doesn't seem to remember at all...

King Murongxuan of Yan and his six sons have done a lot of things in private, forming cliques and fighting for power and profit, but no one disrespects him.Murong Bo and Murong Li rebelled and both captured Jinyang City.And when he was seriously ill, he said it all back.The three armies undid their swords and armor, and the meeting of soldiers under the city wall immediately became a farce.

There is a kind of person in this world who can end a war with a single word.

He patted Murong Shen's head lovingly, and said: "A king mainly relies on his mind, and the second is his fist." Murong Shen was about to answer yes respectfully, when he heard him say solemnly: "Only like your father, the king and me Only such a person can rely on charm."

Murong Shen: "..." Damn it, it's really embarrassing to have such a father!

Xiangxiang picks vegetables for Murong Li, and will carefully remove the meat and bones.Sitting next to Murong Li was his fourth brother Murong Jian. Among the six brothers, the fourth prince Murong Jian was the most aloof from the world, he did not belong to any party and had no ambitions.

This is the first time Xiangxiang has seen him. Unlike the other princes of the Murong family, he looks a bit frail and his complexion is too fair.

At this time, he was looking at the people around him, and after looking at them for a long time, he suddenly asked, "Who are you?"

Xiangxiang picked up the vegetables with a shake of her hand, and the vegetables were missing!He...he doesn't know Murong Li?

The fourth prince is a fool?It doesn't look like it, and no one has said it!
Murong cast a sharp glance at him, snorted coldly, and didn't bother to answer.But Murong Jian seemed to recognize him suddenly: "Ah, fifth child! I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you were injured. How are you doing now?"

Murong Li said coldly: "It's useful for you to care about these things?" If I die, can you recognize which brother is missing?waste!

Xiangxiang smiled apologetically at the fourth prince when he heard his bad tone.Murong Jian didn't take it seriously at all, he just said: "My illness..."

Murong Li didn't bother to talk anymore, he buried his head in wanting to drink, and found that there was only milk soup in front of him.

He glared at Xiangxiang, and Xiangxiang said tremblingly: "The doctor said, the prince can't drink..." As soon as he drank endlessly, Zhang Wenxian told Xiangxiang to watch it early.

Murong Li picked up the milk soup and took a sip, felt normal, then put it down again.Xiangxiang whispered: "Fourth prince...what's the matter..." A woman, no matter how demure she is, she still gossips.But seeing Murong Li's complexion was not good, she didn't dare to ask again, so she stopped there.

But Murong Li said: "He can't tell the difference between people." With a pair of dog eyes, I don't know what's the use of having them.

"Ah?" Xiangxiang was dumbfounded, is there such a thing?She asked in a low voice: "I can't distinguish between people?" What does this mean?
Murong Li said: "It means that anyone who has seen it will be forgotten. He can't remember the face of the father, can't recognize our brothers, and can't even tell the maids and mothers who are close to him."

Xiangxiang has increased her knowledge, is there still such a problem in the world?
Murong Li saw that she kept looking at Murong Jian, and put down his chopsticks with some displeasure.Xiangxiang hurriedly picked up vegetables for him again. Murong Li felt that it was rare for the two of them to talk to each other, so he said: "There used to be a maid in his palace who accidentally broke his head. He chased him from the house to the outside. Two court ladies. He couldn't tell which one it was."

Xiangxiang burst out laughing, seeing Murong Jian looking at her, she quickly covered her mouth again, her shoulders shaking violently.There really is such a thing in this world... She suppressed a smile and asked, "Can you remember other things?"

Murong Li said: "Yes, he's not stupid. It's just that he can't distinguish people's faces. At best he can distinguish men from women."

Xiangxiang thought it was very interesting, and when she turned her head and saw Murong Jian staring at her, she couldn't help laughing: "Then he won't remember me next time?"

Murong Li said: "Next time? Get up and go out for a while, and he won't remember when you come back."

Xiangxiang had an expression on her face that she really wanted to try it, but Murong Li didn't say anything, she didn't dare.Of course, Murong Li couldn't let her try it - let his own woman play with his brother, isn't it interesting?

Besides, Murong Jian is not a bad person, among the few brothers, he is really the kindest person.

But when she turned her face, she saw Xiangxiang's eyes sparkling.He said, "Bring some tahini over here."

Xiangxiang agreed, and went out excitedly.When he came back after a while, he deliberately walked around in front of Murong Jian, but Murong Jian did not respond at all.

After all, she was 17 years old and still a child, she wished she could poke her and ask, "Hey, you really don't know me?" Fortunately, she didn't dare to go too far, and sat back beside Murong Li again.

Murong Li just thought that she looks pretty when she smiles, the light in her eyes is watery, as if a stream is about to flow out.As for the brother, hey, just play for fun, you won't die anyway...
