The Queen of Romance: A Summer of Sweet Classics

Chapter 290 Qin Lian, How Much Do You Like Me?

In the end, the whip was sent wordlessly, and the imperial physician was also sent along with the whip.The latter was probably Su Zi's order. According to Su Qi's temper, he would not be soft on Qin Lian, but he wished that he was dead now.

When the wound was bandaged and everyone went out, Qin Lian and I were the only ones left in the hall looking at each other. Actually, I felt a little uncomfortable.So when Qin Lian sat by the bed and tried to stroke my hair, I subconsciously moved inside.I didn't want this action to give him an excuse to get closer. When Qin Lian wanted to be shameless, he was no different from Su Qi. I accidentally left such a gap by the bed, so he took off his shoes and got on the bed to hug him. I.

I:"……"

He put his hand on my hair and whispered my name: "Xi'er."

"Let go of me first." I said sullenly.

Qin Lian paused, but still did not let go, but clenched my hand tightly. His fingertips were cold, much colder than mine. I moved a little, and heard him repeat my name again. , this time with a bit of a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry."

After a while, I slowly shook my head and said, "You have your own considerations. If this kind of thing happened to Su Qi, he would do the same. You are all the same."

I say this is actually a bit against my will.If I really started from Qin Lian's point of view, I shouldn't have said the last sentence that implied resentment.In my heart, I desperately told myself to be a magnanimous princess, to take the overall situation into consideration, to be considerate and tolerant, and at the same time, I wished I could simply be a short-sighted and jealous woman, and I couldn't bear the slightest grievance. Qin Lian can only belong to me, what country, what Strategy, everything is not worth mentioning.

At least I'm still a little rational, no matter how loud the voice of grievance in my heart is, I still managed to say something wrong.

Qin Lian hugged me even tighter, and said softly: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have treated you that way. Su Xi, I like you very much, from the moment your eyes poked out from the wall. Let me continue to accompany you in the future, wherever you go, I will accompany you, okay?"

I shook my head and covered my eyes, but I still couldn't stop the large swaths of Mizusawa from spreading.Qin Lian gently opened my arms. I thought this crying was really ugly, but I couldn't stop it, so I broke free from him vigorously, got into the quilt to wrap my head, bit the corner of the quilt and continued to cry.

Qin Lian stroked my head and back over and over again through the quilt, and said softly: "I know that at that time you would not use any medicine for tortoise's breath, you would not lie, taking poison is really taking poison. At that time your eyes were desperate, but I Still treating you that way is all my fault. Fortunately, you are still alive, Su Xi, you are still alive, no news makes me happier than this one. "

My crying was shapeless and louder.

He seemed to want to pull the quilt away, but I wrapped him tighter.Qin Lian tried several times but failed, so he leaned closer to a gap in the quilt and said in a low voice, "Don't be so bored, eh? Just bite me if you're sad, okay?"

I wrestled with him for a long time, but this time I failed due to lack of strength.I bit down on his sleeve and heard a muffled groan, but I didn't break free, instead I was completely surrounded by him, and the two of us shrank into the quilt together.

It took me a long time to loosen my teeth and stare at him tearfully.Qin Lian asked, "Is that enough?"

I wiped my tears, pursed my mouth and said, "Not enough."

Qin Lian put the other sleeve to my mouth, I turned my head, lay on the pillow sobbing and ignored him.I lay on my stomach, and Qin Lian followed suit. After a while, I turned my head and stared at him: "I don't want to go to the Southern Dynasty with you."

Qin Lian stroked my hair and said softly, "As long as you don't drive me away, I can go anywhere."

"..."

To be honest, I am a little uncomfortable with such an obedient Qin Lian, but judging by his attitude of being kind and kind, it seems that he is very familiar with it.I stared blankly at him for a while, and asked the question I had been wondering all along: "How do you know I'm not dead yet?"

He paused for a while before saying: "Jade pendant. The jade pendant I gave you at that time, and the finger wrench in my hand were carved from a piece of jasper. That piece of jasper was given by a Taoist priest. The supernatural use of traces. After returning from the battlefield, I just guessed, and after I found a Taoist priest to identify it, I realized that you are still in the country of Su."

"So you can recognize me when you see me in the incense burning workshop?"

Qin Lian said: "I only know that you are in Su country. It happened that Su Qi's notice to seek medical treatment for Rong Ji was posted on the border at that time, and the spies came to report it. I suspected that they hid you by pampering concubine. This Although the method is absurd, it is in line with Su Qi's style of dealing with things. Later I saw you in Burning Incense, calling your name was just a test, but a few days ago in the Imperial Garden, I saw the jade around your neck. Only when you fall can you be sure."

I widened my eyes and subconsciously grasped the jade pendant around my neck. It was still green as usual, and I couldn't see any difference from other jades.The day I woke up, I wanted to throw away this jade pendant, but its shape and fineness were so attractive that I couldn't put it down. After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to keep it by my side.

Thinking of the meeting that day at Burning Incense Workshop, I quickly remembered the kit I gave to Ah Ji, and continued to ask: "Why is that kit in your hands? Where is Ah Ji? How is she doing now?" "

"Aji is doing well. The kit was just dropped by her when she entered the palace, and I picked it up."

I looked at him suspiciously, and said: "How could it be? Ah Ji has never lost anything since she was a child, let alone the bag I gave her."

I looked at him brightly, Qin Lian coughed, turned my gaze away, and said, "Well, I admit, I picked it from her secretly. You gave her many things before parting." , but only left me with an unfinished pillow skin, I am very jealous."

I was very surprised and opened my mouth slightly: "Are you... jealous?"

Qin Lian smiled suddenly: "Do you want to miss Ah Ji, and do you want to go to Nanchao to see her?"

I said seriously: "Of course I miss her very much, and I really want to see her, but I will not go to the Southern Dynasty with you. Let me tell you, don't change the subject, let's continue the discussion, what you just said Are you jealous? I heard you right, right? But how could you be jealous? You have always treated me like you let me fend for myself, and I can't get out of your hands no matter how hard I go..."

Qin Lian coughed again: "After talking so much, are you thirsty? I'm very thirsty. I'm going to have a cup of tea. How about pouring you a cup?"

"Don't fool me like this..."

Qin Lian got off the bed involuntarily, and quickly brought two cups of tea. After feeding me, he quickly blocked my lips, but this time, he kissed my lips. When the lips parted, I opened my mouth again. , and he conveniently fed two plums.

"..."

He stuffed me tightly under the quilt and said in a low voice, "Yes, I'm really jealous, and I regret it too."

He was so frank that I couldn't say anything.

I think Qin Lian pinched my weakness.I have always wanted to hear him tell me that he likes me, and he will be jealous. This is my long-standing wish. From the first time I saw him, I don’t want to realize it one by one tonight. I feel safe and content.

I thought I didn't have any other requests, so I looked at him quietly, then lowered my eyes, stretched out my hand as if nothing had happened, and held one of his fingers.

Qin Lian smiled softly, wrapped my whole hand with his backhand, and said with a little emotion, "It hasn't changed at all..."

I looked up at him, and his eyelashes were gently covered by him, and then he also got on the bed and hugged me, and the familiar warmth came over, and he whispered in my ear: "Okay, what happened today You are tired from so many things, go to sleep."

I'm actually not very sleepy. Although I've been lazy and don't want to get up these days, I'm always awake when I close my eyes.It's not that I don't want to sleep, but that I can't fall asleep anyway.This is probably one of the reasons why Su Qi said that my complexion is getting worse and worse, but thinking about it, my complexion is already very bad, and it doesn't matter if it is even worse, so I didn't mention it to Su Qi at all.Whenever I tried to close my eyes at night and still couldn't fall asleep, I would laugh at myself and think that I was awake during the day and night, which meant that my six months were actually a year, and it was not bad to think about it this way.

But now Qin Lian's hand patted my back lightly, I kept tossing and turning, I didn't fall asleep for a long time, and he kept patting me for a long time.I really want to open my eyelids and tell him that there is no need to do this, but thinking about the worry of insomnia like this, I hold back and say nothing.After thinking about it, he simply pretended to be asleep, found the most comfortable position in his arms, hugged one of his arms, pretended to be breathing long and motionless, and after a while, he really stopped.

I breathed a sigh of relief, one side of my body was already numb, and I was thinking about how to turn over quietly, when I suddenly felt his fingers caressing the center of my eyebrows, because the fingertips were cold, I almost subconsciously frowned.

At least after holding back, he realized that his fingers were not only cold, but also trembling slightly.From eyebrows to cheeks, then earlobes and neck, the temperature of his fingertips has not slowed down, and he can feel that no matter how hard he tries to control, he still can't stop the trembling of his wandering fingers.

I was stunned, and wanted to open my eyes to look at him and say something comforting, but after thinking about it, I definitely don't want others to see him like this, so I closed my eyes tightly and said nothing.After a while he finally stopped, and then I felt a light kiss on my forehead, but with some moisture.

Soon I heard Qin Lian's breathing calmly but still a little unsteady, choked and sobbing, if it wasn't for this extremely quiet late night, I wouldn't have heard it anyway.

I paused, and it took a lot of effort not to open my eyes this time.

I finally fell asleep for a while near dawn.When I woke up, I heard the conversation before I opened my eyes. Qin Lian was asking the palace people about me in a low voice, from taboos to prescriptions to dressing and massage, and at the end there were all kinds of private questions. I could hear They all blushed a little, but he didn't expect his voice to be calm from beginning to end.

When he asked about the precautions for my bathing, I couldn't help it anymore, opened my eyes and coughed heavily.

Unexpectedly, when I opened my eyes, there was still darkness. I was stunned, closed and opened them again, and my eyes were still as dark as dusk.I tried waving my hand, but I couldn't see it.

Two hands took mine quickly, and I lowered my head and opened my eyes wide, but nothing changed.This time I finally resigned.

When the palace servants went to invite the imperial physician, Qin Lian kept holding my hand firmly.But he didn't speak, so I was a little nervous, and asked him in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"

It was only after a while that his voice was heard: "After you woke up after taking the soul drunk, did you feel that you hated me? You should have hated me."

I comforted him and said, "Don't think too much about it. Although I seem to be living in pain, I actually don't feel that pain. I just drink medicine every day. Anyway, I have been drinking a lot of medicine since I was a child. No matter how much It doesn't matter how many bowls you have. Think about it, if I hadn't been judged by the imperial physician that I would not live to be 20 years old, then I wouldn't have traveled thousands of miles to the Southern Dynasty to marry you. Wouldn't that be a pity."

Qin Lian laughed: "It's not a pity. There's nothing good about marrying me..."

He only spoke halfway, and his voice became lower and lower, and I couldn't hear clearly. When my appetite was lifted, he stopped talking, so I had to urge him: "Marry you? What will happen? How do you Why don't you go on?"

His palm fell on my hair and stroked it lightly: "Nothing. I was just thinking, you have been married to me so shortly, I haven't even shown you my previous paintings."

"What painting?"

He said: "I drew graffiti when I had nothing to do after I returned from Su. At that time, I thought you would grow taller, so I drew you as tall as an osmanthus tree. I didn't expect that you were still in the tree when you married in the Southern Dynasty. Down."

"..."

After the imperial doctor came, there was no effective way, and he still said those words as usual.I was bored, Qin Lian was silent for a moment, and said: "There is no record in the medical technique, and there is no way to do it in other books?"

"There are ways, of course." The imperial physician knelt on the ground and before he could speak, Su Qi's cool voice interjected, "Just dig out the heart of His Majesty Nan Chao, put it in boiling water, then in a frying pan, and then put it on the fire." Burn it into powder, mix it with water and drink it, although it may not be effective, but there are no historical records saying that it will definitely not be curative. Do you think so, imperial physician?"

"..." The imperial physician wiped off his sweat, decided to ignore Su Qi's nonsense, and replied, "Last night, I read an ancient book and found a case with symptoms very similar to today's. In the end, I relied on a special method to bring the dead back to life, but, but..."

Su Qi paused, and said coldly, "Go on."

"This method is not a traditional treatment such as medicine stone acupuncture, but a kind of Gu insects enter the body. When the Gu insects live, people live, and when the Gu insects die, people die. But because the method is shocking, it is not tolerated by the Central Plains, and it is only recorded by unofficial history , whether it is true or not is unknown, I can only say it verbally, but cannot implement it."

This is no different from what Su Qi told me at the time.Su Qi was silent for a moment, and asked people to step back. Instead, he held my hand and said to me, "Why did you suddenly lose sight? Was it because of Qin's anger last night? It must be like this."

In fact, my eyes recovered a little during the period of pulse diagnosis. I could see the outline of Su Qi's figure mistyly, and I could even vaguely see him stepping on Qin Lian's foot on purpose. Qin Lian was kicked out of bed.

Blindness was originally a symptom predicted by the imperial physician, but now it is just being verified step by step.I was a little ashamed, and changed the subject: "In fact, I can still see a little bit of your shadow. This is expected, and it's nothing. I'm hungry, brother, and I want to eat Furong Yulu Cake for breakfast."

Su Qi said without hesitation: "Okay. Let Qin Lian do it for you." After finishing speaking, he kicked Qin Lian again.

I choked, and looked at Qin Lian in a blink of an eye. He raised his eyebrows, turned his hand holding the jade wrench finger, and looked up at Su Qi: "Whatever uncle wants to eat, let me make it together."

Su Qi's mouth trembled uncontrollably first, then he sneered: "You are so kind?"

Qin Lian wrapped his arms around his sleeves, with a slight smile on his face: "Anyway, I still have a lot of Mongolian medicine left."

"..."

This should be the first time Qin Lian has entered the kitchen in the past [-] years, but it should also be regarded as my first time.My eyesight gradually improved, so I followed Qin Lian in a wheelchair, watching him curiously, and finally confirmed that he was not omnipotent.No matter how calm Qin Lian was, he was a little annoyed by my laughter. He wiped a small piece of dough on the tip of my nose, knelt down and looked into my four eyes, and laughed.

He put a piece of dough in the shape of a piglet into my palm: "A few days ago Feige passed on a letter, and Aji will be in the country of Su in a few days. Do you want to see her?"

I was taken aback, and quickly grabbed his hand: "When will she arrive?"

Qin Lian glanced at the little pig he had painstakingly squeezed just now, and I had already squashed it into a flat shape. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he said, "It's a long journey, and it will take more than ten days."

I imagined the scene when I met Ah Ji, and prayed in my heart that it would be best not to be too sad when the time comes.Although in reality I'm not too far away from death, I still don't want people to treat me as if it's the last time when they get along with me.Su Qi has often been like this recently. He has become a monarch himself, so he should be busier and busier. However, I can see him wandering around me for most of the day. Holding a folding fan, or a cup of tea, sitting by my side, turning a corner to make me happy.He always liked to tease me in the past, but now he doesn't even tease me anymore, he just racks his brains to make me laugh.And every time I turned my head back, I would occasionally see him propping his head up in thought, with a rare look of distress in his eyes, which would be replaced with a slight smile after meeting mine.

I feel a little sad.And when I thought that what Su Qi did meant accumulating memories for the future, I felt even more sad.

Death is not a very scary word, on the contrary, when a person lives tortured, it means liberation.For those who remained alive, however, death was a fear.

After a few days, Su Zi washed off the human skin mask on my face.Another day later, Su Qi and Qin Lian held a simple ceremony and signed the document as Qin Lian had promised.

At that time, I lost my eyesight again, so it was a pity that I could not see the wonderful expressions of the ministers at that time.However, after listening to Su Zi's description, everyone in the Su Kingdom really felt hematemesis for Su Qi's act of accepting his own sister as a concubine. Get over it.Su Qi has always been an old god, in fact, he has always been an old god, especially when people are attacking him, Su Qi is even more an old god, so that Su Zi and I doubt whether he is very old at all. Enjoy the leisurely feeling of being in the center of the vortex but not being able to fall, but still dominating the clouds and rain.

As for the reaction of the Southern Dynasties, it was relatively complicated.Probably in their minds, I am now more troublesome than disaster, even more foxy than foxy. I was already very tossed when I was not dead, and I didn’t want to be able to stop after I died, and I would miraculously come back to life. Things that can only happen in the storybooks have become facts. Not only have they become facts, but they have also unfortunately happened in the Southern Dynasty.This is enough to make the Southern Dynasties angry.These people did not rise up immediately, which was enough to give Qin Lian face.

But Qin Lian was completely indifferent to these reactions, or he was like an old god like Su Qi, and he only focused on helping me with dressing, washing, feeding me, eating and drinking medicine every day. I became an old woman who was nagging all her life.

At the beginning, I was very uncomfortable with Qin Lian's change, but Su Zi calmly said to me: "Is there anything to get used to, since he is willing to serve you as a woman, then you should treat him as a woman. "

"..."

Feige, who I had been waiting for for a long time, finally came back, and the letter sent showed that Ah Ji had already left, and it took three days to arrive at the capital of Su.I was very excited. If it wasn't that I couldn't stand up, I really wanted to go around the Pearl Palace a few times.And this thought became even stronger the moment Qin Lian came in with the medicine bowl, so strong that even if I couldn't stand up now, I really wanted to run around the Pearl Palace a few times.

Recently, the imperial physicians are really perverted. I suspect that since they knew that Su Xi came back from the dead and that Rong Ji was Su Xi, they began to torment me in different ways.Of course, this idea is groundless, but it is based on the fact that recently my medicine has indeed become more and more bitter, and they have begun to ban me from eating sugar. They said that sugar can be reluctantly eaten before, but now my symptoms It's getting worse and worse, eating sugar is not conducive to the effect of the medicine, so I live a gloomy and gloomy life every day, but Su Qi and Qin Lian have to carry out everything without compromise.

Logically speaking, I was also treated like this when I was a child, but I never ate sugar at that time, but now that I have deeply realized the benefits of eating sugar, I can't bear it if I suffer from it every day.This is just like the old saying, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. A person who is used to wearing coarse linen clothes will not feel anything unusual; If you are in tattered clothes, you will inevitably feel that the world is falling.

Qin Lian was holding the medicine bowl with a calm expression on his face.I began to rock the wheelchair back calmly, asking a thousand times with a slumped face, "Can I not drink?"

Qin Lian didn't move his eyebrows, and smiled a hundred and one thousand times: "No."

I kept retreating until I reached the side of the bed, where I could no longer retreat, and Qin Lian stood in front of me.Unavoidable, I hugged his arm and shook it vigorously, trying to shake out the black soup in the medicine bowl, with a sincere request on my face: "I'll drink it later, tell me a story first, okay?" Okay? Yesterday you told me a story..."

Qin Lian's arm holding the medicine bowl was as steady as Mount Tai. I shook it for a while, but not a single drop came out.I couldn't help being discouraged, and heard him laughing: "You finish your drink obediently, and I'll tell you two stories, okay?"

I said sincerely, "Then if I don't listen to your stories, can I stop taking medicine?"

Qin Lian bent down and looked at me with sparkling eyes until I was a little dizzy, then smiled slightly: "What do you think?"

I immediately let go of my hand and flattened my mouth: "Then I don't want to listen."

Qin Lian has been very patient recently, more patient than ever before.In the past, if I dared to play tricks in the Southern Dynasties, he would always have honey in his left hand and arsenic in his right hand. While giving me a sweet treat, he would also ask me eeriely, "Will it happen again next time?", probably at that time he really caught me A character that promises to be kept, and shamelessly reuses this characteristic of me.And no matter what he thinks now, Qin Lian’s practice of omitting the arsenic and only giving me honey is true. At first, I felt flattered by his behavior, but it gradually developed over time. A feeling of "it turns out that being sick has such benefits", and based on the principle of not using it or losing money, I couldn't help but want to make progress.

It was like this at this time, I said not to listen to the story, he didn't force it, just holding the medicine bowl to think of another countermeasure that can deal with me and is very gentle.In the first few days, he followed the method he used when feeding medicine in the Southern Dynasties. In Qin Lian's words, "the effect is very good", but since I was bumped into by Su Qi one day, I refused to use it again. I can still remember the embarrassment of that day, when I still closed my eyes, I only heard the whistling wind in my ears, and then I was hugged by Qin Lian and dodged to the side like a gust of wind, the ivory folding fan in Su Qi's hand whirled The ground knocked on the medicine bowl, and the bed was dripped with black medicine juice.

Qin Lian's face is comparable to Su Qi's, so when he met Su Qi, he was still calm as usual, but I was very embarrassed, I opened my mouth to explain but couldn't explain, Su Qi folded his arms, looking extremely surprised, snorted coldly: "Bai Rixuan Fornication, what a foolish king did. His Majesty the Southern Dynasty is really shameless for conspiring against my powerless sister."

I was so ashamed that I wished I could bump my head to death.Qin Lian's face was still calm, he didn't even move his eyes, he squeezed his sleeves, and replied calmly: "The ancients said that it is wrong to be unkind, and it is wrong for an elder brother to accept his sister as a concubine. It is indecent." But seeing indecentness and listening to it is inappropriate, His Majesty Su has taken up both of these two, it is mere incompetence, nothing can compare to Your Excellency's shamelessness."

After hearing this, I groaned and covered my eyes. These two people were as shameless as a city wall, and there was no hope of saving them.

I sat in the wheelchair and waited for a long time with my chin propped up. I guessed that the medicine soup was going to be cold, but he still didn't move, frowning and thinking.The roses in the yard were blooming very well, and the long and warm sunlight penetrated into the hall. I raised my face and looked at him carefully in boredom, and suddenly found that although he looked at him this way, he seemed to be much thinner than before, although he was still elegant.

I suddenly couldn't bear to embarrass him like this again, looked at the bowl of medicine with a wrinkled face, and said reluctantly: "Well, you give me the medicine." After finishing speaking, I felt that it was too much of a loss, so I quickly added, " You'll have to tell two stories when you're done drinking."

Qin Lian glanced at me and sighed: "If you can do this every day, I can tell you three stories every day."

I peeked at him and stretched out four fingers: "Four per day, will the deal be made?"

Qin Lian laughed, he looked so pretty when he smiled like this, I watched him nod his eyes intently, then wrapped my arms around my sleeves as I was used to, then closed my eyes and drank it dignifiedly.

After drinking, there were indeed two stories waiting for me, but I felt more and more wrong listening to them, and I couldn't listen to the wonderful ending anymore, so I interjected: "Just now..."

He raised his eyebrows: "Just now?"

I stared at him suspiciously: "Did you deliberately act distressed just now, to make me feel unbearable?"

Qin Lian raised his eyebrows and pursed his lips slightly, then raised his head and smiled lightly: "How could that be?"

I became more and more sure: "It must be so."

"No."

"definitely is."

Qin Lian stroked my hair and said leisurely: "Yes, that's right. Anyway, you agreed, so don't think about it anymore, be good."

"..."

I was completely blind the day before Ah Ji arrived in the capital of Su.

This is like the process of oil paper sinking into the water. It floats and sinks for a long time, but it will eventually sink.I have been tossed by this strange disease for a long time. When I was completely blind, apart from disappointment, I also felt a strange sense of relief.It's just a pity that I can no longer see Ah Ji with my own eyes. She is already married. Although Qin Lian said that Qin Chu treated her very well, only Ah Ji can say whether he is good or not.

I already had a vague premonition the day before my eyes were completely plunged into darkness, so that day I stared hard at Qin Lian, staring at him without blinking.Anyone who is stared at by two eyes for a long time will feel a little uncomfortable. Qin Lian was also terrified by me, and coughed: "What's wrong?"

I hugged his arm, leaned into his clothes and asked in a muffled voice: "If I'm really gone in half a year, will you really...?"

I still can't say that he will sleep with me forever, Qin Lian hugged me and asked softly: "You don't like it?"

"..."

I didn't know what to answer, but he paused and continued: "You are so timid and stupid, I won't feel relieved if I am not with you."

The corners of my eyes were a little wet, and I couldn't hold back after holding back for a long time, a drop of water fell down.

Later that day, in his spare time, Qin Lian drew a picture for me to see.He used a lot of water red, and the last thing he drew was my wedding day.Qin Lian said that I have never looked like a princess with golden branches and jade leaves. Even on the day of the wedding, I tried my best to imitate Su Zi's wedding demeanor and followed the standard rules meticulously. In the end, when I entered the bridal chamber, it was a pity that I showed my feet.After listening to it, I endured it for a while, and said, "So you still prefer the delicate Miss Qianjin, right? Compared with Zhao Youyi, you actually like her more, right?"

He glanced at me and said lightly, "You have seen it all."

I immediately got up, and made a gesture to break free from his holding my hand: "Oh, I'm so sorry that I actually did something like a mandarin duck. It seems that you are a pair made in heaven by childhood sweethearts. It was me who made it hard..."

In the middle of my words, Qin Lian pressed his lips, I watched him lower his head, and gently bit my lips, and then there was a gentle entanglement.When he finally withdrew, I covered my mouth and took a deep breath. Qin Lian smiled and said, "So I like Miss Qianjin, right? Let's do it again, okay?"

I said weakly: "No, no need..."

The next day when Ah Ji arrived in Su, he was relatively calm about my blindness and paralyzed legs.To be exact, she didn’t say a word except for calling out “Princess” when she saw me, she just silently helped me get up to wipe my hands and drink medicine, but when her palms were on my back, I could feel the pain. Trembling slightly.Qin Chu who came with him was even more surprised, and blurted out: "Su Xi, how could you..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a hiss, and then Qin Chu stopped talking. I guess that Ah Ji probably screwed him somewhere.

Later in the day when I was taking a bath, I roughly told Ah Ji about my illness, and she let out a "huh" and said in silence for a while, "Is there nothing I can do?"

"There is no other way for the medicine stone. The imperial physician mentioned the technique of witchcraft. Su Qi has sent people to search for it for a long time, but they have not found it."

Ah Ji was silent again.She has never talked much, and she is even more reticent when she is in a bad mood.I stretched out my arm and let her hold the water for me, while changing the subject: "Is Qin Chu treating you well?"

"Very good." Ah Ji spat out two concise and general words, then hesitated, "Princess..."

"what?"

Ah Ji took a breath and said: "I heard that there is a high mountain at the junction of Su State and Southern Dynasties. If you can climb to the top of the mountain, your wishes will come true. It is said that it is very effective..."

"...Oh, that, I can't do it right." I could basically guess what Ah Ji was going to do, so I hurriedly interrupted her thoughts with nonsense, "Su Qi has already sent people there, and went there twice , I am still not like this now."

I haven't had a good night's sleep for a long time, and now I'm lazily smoked in the mist, but I'm gradually getting a little drowsy.Ah Ji seemed a little sad, and didn't speak for a while, so I squinted my eyes and took a nap in the water. The reason why I woke up was because Ah Ji fished me out of the water and was putting on my underwear.

I know that Ah Ji's ability is enough to fight ten against one, and his force value is not even inferior to Su Qi, but when she carried me out of the tub without my consent, I still choked a little.She didn't do this before, but now even if she wants to take care of my weak legs, it doesn't have to be this way...

I was a little awkward, but I couldn’t say that Ah Ji’s behavior was wrong. On the contrary, she was right. I had to find some topics to divert my attention. After thinking about it, I told her some unspeakable thoughts recently: "Aji, what do you think, if I want Qin Lian to replace each of the four stories with four others, how do you think I should mention it to him? Actually, I really want him to coax me, but He just bullies me."

Then I felt a warm breath approaching my ears, and soon Qin Lian's muffled laugh sounded: "Which one are the other four?"

I froze for a moment, and when I woke up, my face was on fire.

His gentle tone continued to pass over unhurriedly: "Also, where did I bully you? Tell me."

As he spoke, he gently placed me on the bed.At the same moment I touched the quilt, I started to back away calmly with my arms propped up. Although I couldn’t see him, I could still feel that he was approaching step by step, so I kept backing away until I reached the wall and there was nowhere to retreat. , and Qin Lian was so close that we could smell each other's breaths, my heart froze, I simply gritted my teeth and closed my eyes, my whole body stiffened into a tree-like state of suspended animation.

When I can't see it, my other senses are extremely sharp, so sharp that I can even feel that Qin Lian's hands are definitely on both sides of me even though he hasn't touched me for a moment. I only need to move a little, and he can easily take me in.This recognition made me blush even more, and I wanted to get under the bed, and then I heard him say leisurely: "I didn't put on my underwear just now, so..."

It was only at this time that I was distracted and felt naked and cool. The word embarrassment is not enough to describe my feelings at this time. I am afraid that the most blushing thing in my life is nothing more than that. But after hearing what he added "Shoulders are already pink" After that, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, pushed him away to touch the quilt, and swished into it.

I can't wait to faint, but Qin Lian still doesn't intend to let me go, and his voice lingers, making me want to hit the wall: "Which one are the other four? Huh?"

I said weakly: "I don't know, I'm already asleep..."

Qin Lian chuckled, and the next moment I felt a kiss on my forehead, I was stunned for a moment, and heard him jokingly say: "This is it?"

I covered my forehead and felt my whole body was burning. If it wasn't for being held in Qin Lian's arms through the quilt, I really wanted to just roll out of bed like this.Subconsciously wanted to deny: "It's not this..."

Qin Lian let out a rather insincere "Oh": "Otherwise what is it?"

I searched for excuses for a long time, but my brain was so blank that I couldn't think of anything. Finally, I thought that I had already been laughed like this by him, so I didn't mind laughing a little more. I simply pushed the quilt away, and said forcefully, " That's it, so what?"

This time Qin Lian laughed for a longer time, and he didn't stop until I became angry again. He hugged me in his arms and patted my back lightly. He coughed and said solemnly: "It's nothing. Then we will start from today." ,Um?"

"..."

If I could ignore the imperial physicians who popped up from time to time, I would live quite comfortably during this time.Drinking medicine made Qin Lian less ugly because he had the opportunity to embarrass Qin Lian. Only the imperial physician came to check his pulse. Since the news was not good every time, and as the disease became more and more difficult, the imperial physician's forehead There were more and more cold sweats on his face, and Su Qiqinlian frowned even more when he saw it.

As usual, the imperial doctor came to check the pulse every three days. This time, with his fingertips on his wrist, he did not say anything for a long time, and asked me after a while: "Princess, do you feel irritable and depressed recently?"

"do not think so."

"Are you tossing and turning at night?"

"No."

The imperial physician repeated: "Really not?"

This imperial doctor is the one who compared me with Su Xi a few days ago when I was still Rong Ji.Later, I really wanted to see his wonderful face after he knew that Rong Ji was me, and Su Xi was also me, but he was already blind and couldn't see.I came to ask for pulse again today, and saw that his attitude seemed to have not changed, he was still respectful and serious, so he suddenly felt like making fun of me, knowing that no matter what lies I said, he actually knew the truth, so I wanted to deny it, but now I just casually He could hear the seriousness in his tone after listening to it, so he didn't dare to be negligent, and said honestly: "Yes."

This time, his tone was more solemn: "Princess, please tell the old minister next time you feel abnormal in your body."

I was stunned for a moment: "What? Actually, I really want to sleep too, but I just can't sleep..."

The imperial doctor sighed, this time it was rare that he did not advise me again, instead there was a rustling sound, probably he knelt down on the ground, I heard him say in a low voice: "The old minister has added a lot of calming nerves to the princess's prescription. Unexpectedly, the medicine has no effect. The second princess's mood has been too fluctuating recently, and her internal organs are failing rapidly. Nothing can be done."

The subtext of these words was very obvious, and the silence in the crowded hall was like late at night.

As if to fulfill the words of the imperial physician, I had difficulty falling asleep before, and now I am gradually lethargic.I didn’t realize this at the beginning, until I was awakened by Qin Lian in a daze, and when I opened my eyes, it was still pitch black, but I could hear the distinct panic hidden in his voice, and then I was caught. He hugged me tightly, and heard him gradually calm down, patted my back, and said over and over again: "It's okay."

Rather than saying that he is coaxing me, it is better to say that he is comforting himself.

These days, whenever I wake up, I can always see Qin Lian by my side.I asked him what he was doing, and he said that he had read those story books that I liked very much before, and asked me if I would like to listen to him tell me.At first, I would readily agree, this kind of thing can happen but can't be asked for, but now that Qin Lian has sent it to my door, there is absolutely no reason to refuse.However, later I discovered that listening to Qin Lian read the storybook would cause two consequences. One is that his voice is really nice, and he speaks in a low and gentle manner. During the day, I didn’t intend to sleep, which made me a little discouraged; the other was when I finally finished listening to a story, and when I was very moved, I asked Qin Lian how he felt, but he ruthlessly told the whole story. From the playwright to the plot to the description, the critics were useless, leaving a faint sentence at the end: "It's very ugly."

I was so angry that I gritted my teeth and made up my mind never to discuss such topics with him again.

Ah Ji told me that Qin Lian has not taken care of the Southern Dynasty affairs at all recently.Once she happened to pass by a secluded corner and saw two southern guards kneeling on the ground. Qin Lian ignored them and raised his legs to leave. The two guards stood up like lightning and stood in front of him. He knelt down again, his face full of pleading colors.Because they were too far away, Ah Ji didn't hear what they were talking about, but saw that Qin Lian didn't even say a word, just frowned, and then flashed past the two at an even more abnormal speed, when they blinked again He has gone far away.

A Ji said: "The system in the Southern Dynasty is different from that of our country. There are left and right assistants in the Su Kingdom, and various departments in the middle to hold back the discussions. Even if the king leaves for a year, as long as there is no rebellion, it will not be a big problem. The Southern Dynasty is not good, since the previous emperor was alive. At that time, the concentration of power was gradually strengthened, and the power of the left and right ministers was emptied a lot. When Qin Lian came to the throne, this position has been vacant since the right minister retired and returned to his hometown. Although the left minister Shangyan is loyal, he can act recklessly Know how to be naughty, let him suppress it for a while, and problems will arise after a long time. Now that Qin Lian has been away for a few months, even if he appointed the left minister to handle political affairs before leaving, but he hasn't returned for so long, people's hearts are changeable, and civil strife is inevitable .”

I opened my mouth and said against my will: "Aji, do you think it would be good if Qin Lian goes back now?"

Ah Ji answered me unhurriedly: "If the princess is willing, of course she can. As for the contract, it's nothing. If the princess refuses to let His Majesty kill Qin Lian, His Majesty will naturally not kill him. "

No matter how I heard her words, I felt chills, so I immediately stopped talking.

Twelve hours a day, I basically have to sleep for more than eight hours now.Even if you are not sleeping, you are still in the process of brewing drowsiness.In the few waking hours I spend thinking about other people's future lives, thinking about what else I can do to help, but no matter how I think about it, I feel that everyone else is doing well without me well done.

In this way, I felt a little relieved, but on the other hand, it was quite sad.Some days passed like this, until one day Su Qi suddenly received from the hidden guard a letter from Feige who had found the exact location of Zanglang Kingdom.

I can't see Su Qi's expression when he received the letter, but according to Ah Ji, Su Qi Zhanping's face was still calm when he wrote that short note. , but after reading just a few lines of small print, he frowned again.

And when Ah Ji read the note to me, it proved that the content in it was indeed worthy of Su Qi's reaction.

Zanglang Kingdom is more like a small city than a country.Live along the river and migrate with the river.The dark guard inquired about the location of Zanglang Kingdom in the desert, and arrived there just in time for the first rain in the desert in the first half of the year.The Jielang River is full of water, and the people of Zanglang Kingdom are in a good mood. When they are in a good mood, their mouths are relatively relaxed. The secret guard handed over Su Qi's handwritten documents layer by layer. This time it was rare and smooth. It only took three days I met Tu Mu, the highest official of Zanglang Kingdom.

And then, luckily, it continued smoothly.Tumu has no interest in saving people, but he has a younger brother Danwu who is very obsessed with witchcraft.Danwu is as interested in using witchcraft to save people as it is to harm people, and he is only interested in patients who are dying due to strange symptoms. As long as he is willing to take over, the patients will only be divided into two types: half dead and alive, and there is absolutely no precedent for dying .Afterwards, Dan Wu read Su Qi's paperwork, asked a few more questions about my illness, and luckily expressed his interest in it.

The only problem is that Danwu refuses to leave Zanglang Kingdom.The hidden guards were unable to persuade them, and they did not dare to use force due to witchcraft, so they could only send the news back first.

This note was originally written more than ten days ago, but Zang Lang was in the desert, and it took several days for the dark guard to walk out of the desert, and it took many more days to upload it back tied to the leg of a carrier pigeon.

Since Danwu agreed to treat the disease but refused to come to the Southern Dynasty, it seemed inevitable that I, as a patient, should go to Zanglang Kingdom.It's just that it's a long way from Su to Zanglang, passing through mountains and snow fields, and finally entering the desert. I don't know how long it will take.A few days ago, the imperial doctor came to check my pulse, and implicitly stated that I can't live for two months. In this case, if I am a bit lucky, I can get there alive; And I accidentally slowed down a little bit, and tossed a little bit hard on the way. My life died in the middle of the journey or even the day before I arrived in Zanglang, which was very frustrating.

However, in any case, for this good news, I will definitely go there.When I go to Zanglang, A Ji will naturally follow, A Ji will follow, Qin Chu will naturally follow, and Qin Lian also insists on accompanying me, Su Qi also wants to go, but he just proposed this idea, I just wanted to go. I noticed that Qin Lian was holding my finger and squeezed it slightly, and then I heard him calmly dissuade: "It's enough for me to go with A Ji and Su Xi, too many people is not a good thing, besides, His Majesty Su is very busy. , it doesn’t matter if you don’t go.”

Su Qi sneered just now, and before he could say anything, Su Zi stopped him again. Su Zi's words were very blunt, much more blunt than Qin Lian: "That's it. If you are really worried, It is enough to send a few hidden guards to follow. With Qin Lian and Aji following, there is no problem. Besides, if Su Xi is really cured, you will naturally be able to see her; if Su Xi really has any misfortunes , how can you bear that kind of scene, it's better not to make trouble."

I then nodded to express my complete agreement, and then I heard Su Qi ask Su Zi angrily: "Do you think that if I go too, you will be left alone in this capital and my absence means that there will be no news for you, and then you will feel Are you envious and jealous of me?"

He finished speaking in one breath without any hesitation, and then I heard Su Zi's leisurely voice when the lid of the tea was closed: "That's right, you guessed it right. Even if you guessed it right, what can you do to me?" ?”

"..."

As for the possible loss of life on the way, Qin Chu subconsciously comforted Su Qi like this: "If something really happens to the princess on the way, Her Majesty Nan Chao doesn't have to worry too much, I will definitely bring back the bones intact."

As a result, he was kicked to the ground with a "bang" by Ah Ji as soon as he finished speaking.

The days are numbered, and after counting the number of people on the day, they rush to pack the packages, and the next day just after Yinshi, they have already set off.

The weather is not very cooperative, or it is too cooperative, and it is dripping with the first rain after autumn.After I said goodbye to Su Qi and Su Zi, I fell asleep again.In the dimness, I heard the sound of horseshoes stepping by, almost as fast as lightning.However, I didn't feel that the carriage was too bumpy. I only knew that I had been gently hugged by Qin Lian. His eyelashes pressed against my face and moved slightly, and the strands of hair burrowed into my neck. It was a slightly itchy and warm feeling.

I was awake less and less, and first I lost strength in my hands and feet, and then I needed to move a little to even try to turn my neck.The accompanying imperial physician checked every day, sighing and shaking his head every time.Qin Lian became more and more calm. One time when I woke up in his arms, he lowered his head and kissed my lips. He tossed and turned gently for a while, and suddenly asked me in a low voice, "Do you have any other wishes?"

I raised my head subconsciously.

I really want to see his expression at this time.

I stopped for a while, then lowered my head, grabbed his sleeve, tightened it tighter, and asked him in a low voice, "What do you like about me?"

He seemed to smile, but it was a pity that there was darkness in front of my eyes. I couldn't tell if he was smiling like before. His light-colored lips would curl into a very beautiful arc, his eyes were warm and soft, and there seemed to be ten miles between his brows and eyes. The spring breeze is enough to drown the scorching beauty of three thousand peach blossoms.

At first in the courtyard, when I met him for the first time, it was this little smile, which seemed to flow calmly and calmly like a bright jade, which made me feel that there was nothing else in the world, and all that was left was this little bit. smile.

Qin Lian's voice came into my ears, low and light, warm and slow: "That day you suddenly came to my courtyard, and after saying goodbye, I followed you to see you go back, with your back to me, and went to the pond to catch lotus petals , the pool water is very quiet, your hand touches it lightly, and the circles of ripples in the blue pond slowly sway, which is very beautiful."

"At that time, I thought," he said, "this little girl is a bit clumsy, but she must be very cute to get along with."

I buried him in his arms and hugged him.After waiting for a while for the hot earlobe to fade away, I retorted him in a low voice: "I'm not stupid."

He smiled, hugged me back tightly, and stroked my hair.

As we gradually entered the mountainous area, the number of people became less and less, and the number of inns also decreased. Therefore, we often need to set up tents when we rest at night.Regardless of whether I'm sleeping or not, I can feel that Qin Lian is with me all the time.This made me feel at ease, so no matter what bad news the imperial physician was babbling about, or bad weather and poor accommodation, it couldn't make my mood any worse.It's just that the sleeping time is getting longer and longer, which is really a helpless thing.

One day it was night, I woke up in a blur, and found that I was in the tent at the moment. I was bumping, and I heard the sound of horseshoes. I thought it was daytime and everyone started again, but I felt something was wrong. The carriage bumped really badly, and Qin Lian didn't seem to be within reach beside me. I stretched out my hand and touched in the darkness, but I didn't expect to touch something extremely sharp, like being cut by a blade. My finger hurt, so I had to subconsciously take it back.

Before I could make a sound, a cold voice rang out first: "The princess finally woke up?"

The voice was very unfamiliar, and compared to Qin Lian's, it was a bit gloomy. I did a search in my memory, but I really didn't remember it, and he refused to introduce himself for a long time, which is really weird.However, if I think about it again, if I was kidnapped, then all this is really too normal.

Although I can't think of who I would have had any grudges with, and this enemy still knows my identity, and can bypass the collective defense of Ah Ji and the dark guard, it is really a good way to think about it, but since he has already approached me Come on, I can only parry: "Who are you? Why did you kidnap me?"

Although I don't expect him to answer these two questions, according to the law of scripts, this must be asked again.Unexpectedly, he was very honest, and said with a cold snort, "I am Shang Yan."

I couldn't react for a while, so I was speechless in my heart.I really want to ask him where does he come from the confidence that he just gives his name and thinks that people will know it. The only people who have such a reputation in the world are Qin Lian and Su Qicai who can do it, even if they are the prime ministers of a country. Ask people to know.Then I thought about this for a while, and slowly remembered that Ah Ji had mentioned this name to me a few days ago, and then slowly remembered that his identity seemed to be the prime minister of a country.

Thinking of this, I was ashamed, and then I vaguely guessed his purpose, and my heart sank.
