The oath of rebirth not to be a concubine

Chapter 69 Is that enough?
After a long time with the group of people, Helian Yunzhao dragged me out of the grass, looked around for a few times, and then jumped back to the cave.

The bonfire in the cave has been kept on, and as soon as I came back, a wave of heat hit me, and I immediately became much warmer.

Although Helian Yunzhang got a fish, he didn't intend to grill it for me, so he threw it by the fire and went to the side to rest his eyes and rest his mind.

I was really hungry too, imitating his appearance, putting the fish on the tree fork, hanging it over the fire and turning it around.

I feel that I can learn the general appearance, but I obviously don't have the talent in this area. The grilled fish is dry and mushy, and the tail of the fish is as black as charcoal.

I took a few bites and it was really hard to swallow, so I bite the bullet and ate a few more bites, then I threw it beside the fire in anger, thinking of Wu Fuzi's roast lamb, and at the same time thinking of Ji Yunchang's roasted fat rabbit, just so fascinated Fell asleep in a daze.

There is no sun and moon in the mountains, and Helian Yunzhao and I stayed in the cave for another two days in a blink of an eye. In these two days, three successive waves of imperial forest soldiers searched the mountain, but he cleverly avoided them.

He ate python meat for two days, and I ate grilled fish for two days.The injury on his shoulder has healed a bit, and my forehead doesn't hurt as much.I once proposed to go back to Shengjing, but he said that the time has not yet come.I can't say anything more, just keep silent.

On the night of the fourth day, I heard a strange sound in a daze, and then I felt a person shadowed out of the cave. I opened my eyes and saw that Helian Yunzhao was not in the cave.

With a thought, I dimmed the fire and used a tree fork as a cover to look outside.

It was pitch black in the mountains, not even birdsong, why did he go back?

I thought about it, and concentrated my energy to look at it. In the darkness, the forest layer of trees in my sight gradually became clear. Passing through the woods, I saw Helian Yunzhao standing next to an old tree with a crooked neck, his hands behind his back.Standing in the shadow of a tree next to him was a man in tight black clothes, bowing and saying something to him.

I stared intently again, and took a closer look at the shape of the man's lips, only to see his lips move slightly, saying something, His Highness ordered yesterday, but there was no movement, the broken words of the hidden soldiers not moving.I looked carefully again, wanting to see what he said next, Helian Yunzhang at the side seemed to sense something, and suddenly turned around.

The cave was far away from where he was standing, and it was impossible for ordinary people to see it, but I just felt like I was being caught, so I quickly stepped back, my heart was beating wildly, and I quickly lay down in the same posture I was lying on just now. After a while, Helian Yunzhang returned to the cave.

I was afraid that he would discover something, so I took a deep breath secretly, but he just sat in the distance and adjusted his breath.

I pretended to turn over and looked back, and found that his brows were drooping, as if he had fallen asleep, so I felt relieved.

Thinking about what I saw just now, I was full of doubts.

From the looks of it, that person might be a secret guard, reporting the situation.He said that His Highness ordered yesterday, which meant that he had already contacted Helian Yunzhao.

Since someone of his own found him, Helian Yunmao could return to Shengjing safely, so why did he still hide in the cave?

After thinking about it, I seem to understand something.

It has been so many days since the prince was assassinated, and the person behind the scenes must be in a hurry right now.

Helian Yunzhang was watching the situation quietly, waiting for the opponent's next move under impatience.

Thinking about it further, the crown prince was in a hurry, and he was assassinated in the Shoushan hunting ground, the more His Majesty could not find anyone, the more furious Long Yan would be, and he must have sent someone to investigate this matter thoroughly.

Emperors have been suspicious since ancient times, and His Majesty may have thought about this matter in his heart.It is best to use the net to catch fish by taking advantage of this incident. If you can’t catch fish, it will force the fish to dare not make any more movements for the time being...

This time, Helian Yunzhang's disaster seemed to be a catastrophe, but it was not. In the battle for the reserve position, he also took advantage of others' dangerous moves and took a big step to win the game.

However, the more he wins, the more dangerous I am.

When I return to Beijing in the future, those who are interested will definitely see me as a thorn in the side, a thorn in the flesh, and must get rid of it quickly.

I'm only ten years old, how can I protect myself...

Sighing deeply, I turned over and felt something cool in my heart. I took it out and saw that it was the jade whistle.

It was left by the man named Chen who gave Mo Que. This little thing is pure white, with several auspicious clouds carved on it. It is really small and exquisite. I think it is exquisite, and I always wear it as a decoration, and I have never thought of it for a long time.

Since he gave the priceless Mo Que, the hidden guard he mentioned must not be fake.

If one day, I am trapped in the ground, will I really blow this jade whistle...

Even though Mo Que is Liancheng, he can be regarded as exchanging paintings. Using his hermit guard means he owes him a big favor.

The identity of the other party is unknown, and the origin is unknown. Why do you help a ten-year-old child like this?

In this world, there is no such thing as a free lunch. I don't believe that a stranger will be so kind as to be fraternal. I'm afraid it's a hidden conspiracy...

My eyes darkened, and I put the jade whistle back into my clothes.

The bonfire has been extinguished, there are no stars and no moon outside the cave, and the gloomy darkness is slowly oppressing it like a giant net...

Feeling restless, I closed my eyes and fell asleep in a daze.

Early the next morning, I was awakened by Helian Yunzhang.

"What's the matter?" I got up and asked.

"Going down the mountain today." He answered briefly.

Almost as soon as I finished speaking, someone picked up my collar, and as soon as I vacated, I went down the cave.

Helian Yunzhang seemed to be very familiar with the mountain roads. He walked around the strange rocks and creeks. After walking for two hours, he finally left the mountains and reached the plains.There was already a carriage waiting there.

The cloak and long hat were already prepared inside, and Helian Yunzhang threw a cloak to me, and put on one himself, then closed his eyes and meditated.

It ran all the way, and stopped after about half an hour. I opened the curtains to look, and found that this was not Shengjing, but an inn.

There was already a shopkeeper waiting at the door, and as soon as the carriage stopped, he quickly put on the horses and led Helian Yunzhao directly to the back guest room.I was led directly to an upper room by the servant.

This room is very spacious. There are meals prepared on the table in the room. I ate grilled fish without salt for several days in the cave. There was no oil or water in my stomach. When I saw the food, I felt very hungry. , Go to the ear room and clean your hands first, then sit down and look at the big ones.

After eating, a servant knocked on the door, "Miss, here comes hot water for you."

"Come in." I replied.The boy pushed open the door, brought in several buckets of hot water, poured them into the big wooden bucket in the side room, and then backed out.

Two women came in afterward, sprinkled the petals in the flower basket in the water, tested the temperature of the water, and put the cloth towel and a new set of clothes on the screen.

"Girl, this old slave will wait for you to wash up." The old woman saluted respectfully.

"No, you go out first. I will call you if something happens."

"Yes." The two retreated in response, closed the door, and stood guard at the door.

After staying in the cave for a few days, I didn't change my clothes for a few days. My body was muddy, sweaty, and smelly like snakes. Almost as soon as they went out, I threw off my shoes, took off my dirty clothes, and got into the cave. into the hot tub.

This long-lost warm feeling is simply too comfortable, and I couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, feeling that the fatigue of these days has also disappeared a lot.

After soaking in the flower bath, I dried my body, changed into new clothes and sat in front of the bronze mirror, and slowly removed the cloth strips that bound the wound on my forehead. A hideous scar immediately appeared on the side of my temples.

I was startled, and I looked closely at the bronze mirror. The scar was very deep. It penetrated directly from the forehead into the hair. There was pink tender flesh on the edge of the scar.

This body is full of scars that haven't healed yet, and now there is a new wound on the obvious forehead, it's okay if it heals well, if it can't be healed...

I sighed, loosened my hair to cover the scar, and lay down with my clothes on.

Leng Shandong, who had slept for a few days, was already exhausted, and fell asleep almost as soon as he lay down.

About You, I woke up leisurely, got up and took a sip of water, and a servant knocked on the door to deliver dinner.

The dishes for dinner are very good, and there is also a cup of sugar water, so I naturally eat a lot.

After dinner, a woman took away the bowl and brought over a pot of Pu'er tea. The tea soup was just thick, and before a cup was poured, there was another knock on the door.

"Dangdang...it's me."

The Eighth Prince's voice came from the door, and I quickly got up and opened the door.

He put on a hair crown and put on a moon-white robe with dark patterns of bamboo leaves. The cuffs and waist were wrapped with the same color bandages. He was covered with a robe of the same color that hung down to the floor. When he walked, the clothes fluttered, revealing a carved jade pendant around his waist. , striding forward, is indeed romantic and suave.

"Eighth Prince." I stood up and saluted.

He smiled, "I didn't see you being polite in the cave, so why are you still reserved."

The cave is naturally different from here, and the etiquette is naturally unavoidable.

I didn't say a word, just smiled, he waved his hands back and said, "You don't need to be polite, just sit down and drink tea."

"Yes." I answered, poured him a glass first, and waited for him to pick up the glass, then picked up my own glass, and slowly sipped.

He took a sip from the teacup, then took out a red bottle from his cuff, put it in front of me, and said, "This is ice spring ointment, apply it on the wound twice in the morning and evening, and the scar will disappear naturally in about ten days." not see."

"Thank you eighth prince." The injury on my forehead was caused by him, so I was not polite, I just picked it up and stuffed it into my sleeve, and then drank tea slowly.

There was a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his lips, and he knocked on the table casually with his long fingers, saying, "This medicine is made from the condensed iceberg snow lotus. The iceberg snow lotus is rare, and the ingredients in it are treasures in the world. This is Xiqi's royal medicine." , can you just say thank you?"

Otherwise, what else can I do, I saved you, you don't even have a word of thanks, don't you?

I was slandering in my heart, but my face was slightly lowered, and I didn't answer the words easily.

He hooked his lips, picked up the teacup, and took a sip.

"My prince, I can make an exception and marry you as my side concubine." He said suddenly.

Side concubine... Why is this person talking nonsense again?

"Why, you don't want to?" He looked sideways at me.

I got up and saluted, and said with a slight smile, "Eighth prince, Qingmu is afraid. Qingmu is only ten years old this year, and he is not yet old enough. It may be too early to talk about marriage. Thank you prince for your love."

The corners of his lips became more playful, and he took a sip of the tea ceremony, "There's no need to pretend, you're already happy in your heart, isn't that what you think in your heart?"
