Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne
Chapter 9 A Respectful Couple
Jiang Fenghua's pupils widened in shock. She stared blankly at Xie Shang's eyebrows and eyes. His face was still as cold as ice, and his movements were even rougher. He put her on the couch without any mercy. "Before the imperial physician comes, I will check if you have any broken bones."
"Your Highness can do it too?" Jiang Fenghua's beautiful eyes flashed with a gleam of light.
Xie Shang didn't want to explain that this was common sense that a soldier must have, but unfortunately he would never be able to go to the battlefield again. His father hated him and had given up on him.
Xie Shang personally lifted the hem of her skirt and took off her shoes and socks, revealing her flawless feet that were all red and her ankles were swollen. He pressed lightly with his fingers, and Jiang Fenghua burst into tears in pain.
Xie Shang looked at the tearful beauty biting her handkerchief without saying a word and said, "If it hurts, just scream. It will feel better if you scream."
Jiang Fenghua kept crying, closed her eyes and shook her head. She even started biting the back of her hand because the pain was unbearable.
Xie Shang had never seen a woman who was so afraid of pain. He hadn't started yet, and it would be even more painful when he applied ice later.
"The bones are not injured, just sprained. Apply ice first and then apply medicine." Xie Shang ordered the palace maid to get ice.
She said, "My Lord, does it hurt to apply the medicine?"
"It will hurt, just bear with it," he said.
Jiang Fenghua huddled his legs together and curled up on the couch, his brows tightly furrowed. His eyes were like deep lakes, filled with crystal tears. The tears on his cheeks were like pearls, and his fair face was tinged with a blush, so beautiful that it was heartbreaking.
"Don't apply the medicine anymore. It won't hurt so much if you don't move it. Let it heal slowly." Jiang Fenghua said.
"If you don't apply ice and medicine, you'll forget about your foot or it will become lame." Xie Shang deliberately scared her.
Jiang Fenghua was so scared that he stretched out his legs again and kicked his feet into his arms, "I can bear it. I don't want to become a cripple."
Xie Shang shook his head helplessly, and soon the palace maid also found ice cubes. Xie Shang ordered the palace maid to apply ice to her ankle, but as soon as the ice cubes touched her ankle, Jiang Fenghua's tears began to flow like pearls from a broken string, her lips trembled slightly in pain, and she kept shouting, "Be gentle, it hurts..."
Seeing this, the palace maid didn't dare to use any force. If she was touched even a little, she would tremble with pain all over.
Xie Shang couldn't bear to watch it any longer, "How are you going to get rid of the swelling without putting some effort in?"
How could the palace maid dare to disobey? She tried to increase the force. Jiang Fenghua bit the back of her hand so hard in pain that it left bloody marks.
Xie Shang saw that she looked like she was about to faint from the pain, so he said to the maid, "Your strength is not right, I will do it, you guys leave first."
The maid quickly stepped back, feeling relieved.
Xie Shang was sitting on a low stool, holding her feet gently with both hands, his cold fingertips gently circling her ankles, trying to let her slowly get used to the pain, and then he said, "Don't bite your hand, or you'll have to treat it again. Hold on to my arm, think about something else, and distract yourself."
Jiang Fenghua nodded obediently and put her hands on his arm. The next second, when the ice cube touched the painful spot, she suddenly grabbed it and pinched it hard. Xie Shang felt her strength increasing and was afraid that his arm would be pinched purple by her. But at least she didn't move anymore. He continued to make circles to reduce the swelling for her. When the pain became unbearable, she suddenly hugged his shoulders and pinched his back with her fingers.
Xie Shang frowned slightly, his handsome features flushed, the girl's body fragrance came, her cheek rubbed against his ear, tingling.
After completing a series of movements, it was unknown how long it had passed before her ankle felt a little relieved and was less swollen.
Jiang Fenghua seemed to be about to faint from the pain, and she collapsed in his arms in a daze. Her forehead and brows were covered with sweat, and her body seemed to be wet with sweat. Her sweaty appearance was adorable.
Xie Shang's throat moved and his heart beat violently. Jiang Fenghua was lingering in his arms in a very dishonest manner. Fortunately, there were only the two of them in the palace, otherwise if the palace maids and eunuchs saw them like this, they would think that they had just done something shameful.
Outside the palace, Empress Cheng asked the imperial physician to leave some medicine for his injuries from falls and then let him go.
The corners of her lips curled up into a faint smile, and she asked people not to enter the hall to disturb them.
Nanny Xi whispered in her ear, "I have never seen the prince be so patient. If the princess can win the prince's favor, it will relieve the queen's worries. The daughter of the Su family..."
"Shang'er values feelings. He will never give up Su Tingwan because of Jiang Fenghua. Now it all depends on whether Shang'er can be loyal to Jiang Fenghua."
"Yes." Nanny Xi said again, "It is inevitable that the prince will be moved by such a delicate beauty."
"Since the emperor has agreed to let Shang'er take the position of Jingzhao Yin, it means that the emperor has not completely given up on him. With Shang'er's intelligence, he will definitely achieve something." Jiang Fenghua was right. Only by letting Shang'er be under the emperor's nose could he remember that he had such an outstanding legitimate son.
When they were returning home, Empress Cheng used the excuse of being tired and did not come out to see them, allowing them to return home by themselves.
Jiang Fenghua had medicine applied and his foot was bandaged, and was carried to the carriage by Xie Shang.
After returning to Prince Heng's Mansion, Xie Shang carried her into the bedroom and turned to leave. Jiang Fenghua quickly called out to him, "Prince..."
Xie Shang was stunned. "What's the matter?"
"Thank you." Jiang Fenghua spoke softly.
Xie Shang said in a deep voice, "It was because your mother accidentally scared you that you fell and sprained your ankle. You don't need to thank me."
She said eagerly, "And last time, and the time before that, thank you for that."
Xie Shang paused, realizing that she was talking about the wedding day and the time when she almost fell off the carriage in the palace.
He instructed Hongxiu, "Be careful not to let your feet touch the water when you take a bath, and don't get out of bed for a few days." When he hugged her, he could clearly feel that her clothes were wet with sweat. She was covered in sweat and it would be difficult for her to fall asleep.
Xie Shang himself didn't realize that he seemed to have accepted Jiang Fenghua as his wife, and the way they got along was like that of a couple who respected each other.
Hongxiu answered respectfully, "Yes, I will be careful."
After Xie Shang left, Jiang Fenghua sat up straight, his eyebrows and eyes returned to normal, he raised the water cup and took a sip: "Prepare some water."
Hong Xiu said, "Princess, what happened between you and the prince in the palace? Why did the prince carry you back and say those words... The prince seemed to care about you."
"Don't think too much. He is the same to other women. He is especially gentle to Su Tingwan." The shy look on Jiang Fenghua's face disappeared instantly and was replaced by an indifferent expression.
"Oh." Hongxiu didn't understand why the young lady wasn't moved. The prince was so handsome and elegant, any woman would be moved by such a handsome man!
After Jiang Fenghua took a bath, he had someone place the four treasures of the study on the desk and began to practice calligraphy.
Xie Shang will not come tonight, and he has no reason to enter the bridal chamber again, so she has to think of a way.
