After the subjugation of the country, she became the favorite concubine of the enemy

Before I knew it, half a day passed again.It is actually not that cold when the sun is shining now, but once the sun sets, the temperature will be much colder than during the day.

Ling Xiche, who was sitting by the bed with Shen Chen, felt a little cold, so he went to the charcoal stove, opened the charcoal stove, added two pieces of silver charcoal, fiddled with it to make the fire burn hotter, closed the stove lid, and stood I couldn't help stretching my arms and moving my muscles.

For nearly two hours, he had been sitting by the bedside with Shen Chen, and it was inevitable that his back would ache after maintaining a sitting position for a long time.

Knocking on the back and turning around made it a little better. I wanted to go out for a few more laps to exercise, but thinking that I had promised Shen Chen earlier that he would see me when he woke up, I gave up the idea of ​​going out and walked again. Go back to the bed and sit down.

If he went out, he would be outside when he woke up, and he wouldn't be able to see himself at first sight, wouldn't that be breaking his promise.

Ling Xiche carefully looked at the person on the bed, this was actually the first time he looked at him seriously.

In the beginning, because I was forced to do so, although I didn't say I hated him, but I definitely felt resentment in my heart, and I didn't want to see him at all. Later, the relationship eased, but I never thought about taking a good look at him.

In fact, he is very good-looking, the kind of good-looking for men, not like himself, and he was often regarded as a girl when he was a child.Now, I also feel that his appearance is a bit more feminine, so he has been disguised as a woman for so long without being discovered.

Ling Xiche's index finger touched Shen Chen's eyebrows.

It is said in the book that men with sword eyebrows and star eyes are the most heroic, but I feel that someone like Shen Chen is just right, if it is sword eyebrows, then it looks a bit too stern.

Ling Xiche moved his hand down to his cheek, his face was well-defined, just...was he a little thinner?Are you working too hard every day?But his figure is not bad, not thin, very well-proportioned.

The index finger continued to move down, to his lips.

He...kissed himself.

"Xi Che..."

Shen Chen's soft call interrupted Ling Xiche's thoughts.

"you're awake?"

When I went to see Shen Chen, I found that he was not awake, but frowned, as if he was enduring pain, and seemed to be experiencing a terrible dream.

"Xi Che..."

Ling Xiche held Shen Chen's hand, "I'm here. How are you? Does the wound hurt?"

"Don't go..."

Ling Xiche held his hand tightly, "I won't go, I'm right here, you can see me when you wake up."

"Don't... leave the palace... Xi Che..."

Ling Xiche's heart tightened, and he touched his forehead. He really had a fever, and he was talking nonsense.Ling Xiche wanted to call for the imperial physician to come over, but just as he stood up, the person on the bed grabbed the hem of his clothes.

Looking at Shen Chen on the bed, Ling Xiche couldn't bear it, so he sat back on the bed.

"Chun'er! Xiao Mingzi! Are you there?"

Chun'er and Xiao Mingzi came over soon after hearing the sound.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

"The emperor has a fever, go and invite the imperial physician over."

Xiao Mingzi volunteered to find someone to hire the imperial physician, and Chun'er went to get a handkerchief, dipped it in cold water and applied it to Shen Chen's forehead.

"Don't go..."

Seeing that he was still talking in his sleep, Ling Xiche gently patted him to comfort him, "I didn't leave, I'm here."

"Xi Che...I don't want to...let you go...I want you...to stay..."

Ling Xiche stopped patting him, and froze in place.

Shen Chen said softly again, "I really... hope... you can... stay... Xi Che... don't... ....leave me......"

Ling Xiche held his hand tightly, "I didn't leave, I didn't leave."

In fact, he didn't want to leave by himself at all. Although he said at the time that he would let him out of the palace, he was unwilling in his heart.

Later, he was injured, and he thought that he might not be able to survive this time, so he still gave himself the badge and let him go, but in fact, he really hoped that he could stay.

Oh I see......

Ling Xiche's mind was a little buzzing, and he stood up with his palms on his forehead. Before he could take two steps, a severe headache caused him to fall to the ground.

"Son!"

Chun'er hurried forward to support Ling Xiche.

"Young Master, what's wrong with you? Don't scare Chun'er."

Ling Xiche still had a splitting headache, and managed to squeeze out a few words, "It's okay... just a little headache..."

"My lord, Chun'er will help you go to the side hall to lie down and rest for a while, and let the imperial physician show you later, shall we?"

"No...don't say it, don't worry Shen Chen and Yuanyuan."

Chun'er supported Ling Xiche's body, and lightly pressed his temple, "Why did it suddenly hurt so badly? Young Master, you didn't have any headaches in the house before. Young Master, have you ever been in pain before?"

Ling Xiche felt a little dizzy from the pain, and didn't want to speak. Seeing this, Chun'er untied his bun, and knelt behind him to help him gently massage.

After a while, Ling Xiche felt his headache relieved a little, and said softly, "Maybe it's just a little tired from not sleeping last night, so don't worry."

"But son..."

"Okay, I'm fine."

Seeing Ling Xiche's firm attitude, Chun'er could only give up and stop persuading him.

Winter nights always come extra early.

A little eunuch was carrying a food box to deliver food to a remote palace, and the sky outside was getting darker and faster.

Two guards at the gate of the palace were sitting by the gate waiting for their shifts. When they saw someone delivering food, they opened the gate for him without even raising their heads.The little eunuch walked in without saying a word, not even making eye contact.

This place is very remote, far away from where the eunuchs and maids eat. If there is a long delay, they will almost finish the dinner by the time they deliver the meal back. He just wants to finish the meal quickly and the task will be completed, a moment earlier. When you go back, you will have an extra bite of hot food.

"Come out to eat."

The little eunuch yelled emotionlessly, then opened the food box, and took out two dishes and a bowl of rice inside, that is, a plate of fried cabbage, a plate of scrambled eggs and a bowl of rice.

Seeing that the people inside hadn't come out, they yelled again, "It's time to eat! Finish eating quickly, so I can collect the bowls and chopsticks and go back earlier."

Footsteps finally came from behind, and the little eunuch turned around impatiently, but was grabbed by the neck.

The little eunuch patted and pinched his hand, but instead of letting go, the other party tightened his grip even more.The little eunuch struggled for a while, from struggling hard to gradually losing strength, slapping the opponent's hand weakly, and finally stopped struggling, his hands dropped down and died.

"Is he dead?" Zhao Jihe asked quietly standing behind the assassin.

The assassin felt the pulse on the young eunuch's neck, "Dead."

Without turning his head, the assassin began to take off the clothes on the little eunuch, and then changed himself.After changing clothes, they dragged the young eunuch's body to the backyard where they had dug the pit in advance, and threw the body into it.

"Come here and bury together."

Zhao Jihe didn't hear clearly "What did you say?"

"You are no longer the prince, come here and work together."

Zhao Jihe reluctantly walked over and dug the earth with him to bury the corpse.

The two worked together and quickly buried the body with soil.After burying it, the assassin stomped on the mound a few times, stomped the soil firmly, wiped off his sweat, turned and entered the house, and Zhao Jihe followed.

Zhao Jihe took some water and washed his dirty hands from digging just now. He was about to ask the killer if he wanted to wash it too, when he turned around and saw him sitting on the edge of the table, eating the meal that he should have eaten by himself. , and it took only a while, and a bowl of rice was almost finished.

"Hey, save some for me."

The killer continued to eat and said, "I will need some energy to go out later, and you will be fine if you are hungry."

Zhao Jihe didn't say anything more, just watched him eat eagerly, and finally the assassin softened under his pitiful eyes, and left half a plate of scrambled eggs for him, and Zhao Jihe ate the scrambled eggs silently beside him.

"On weekdays, they give you these? Not even meat?"

"Well, occasionally a little meat."

"I don't eat as well as I do."

Zhao Jihe stopped talking and continued to eat scrambled eggs in silence.

After waiting for Zhao Jihe to finish eating, the killer walked out with the food box.

The two guards outside the palace were chatting together, when they saw the eunuch who delivered the food come out, they let him go without looking directly at him.

In Chenle Palace, Ling Xiche was still guarding Shen Chen.

Finally, Shen Chen woke up and saw Ling Xiche the first time he opened his eyes.

"How is it? I didn't lie to you, did I? You will see me the first time you wake up." Ling Xiche smiled softly.

"Have you been with me the whole time?"

"That's right, I've been sitting here, and my waist is sore." Ling Xiche said and hammered his waist.

Shen Chen smiled and stretched out his hand from under the quilt, "Let me help you beat it."

"Okay, don't move." Ling Xiche stuffed his hands back into the quilt and picked up the medicine bowl next to him, "I'll feed you the medicine."

Shen Chen thought about the fact that he had a cold and fever, and because he had been in a coma, he had to feed him medicine mouth to mouth. He just wanted to make a joke about it, but he was afraid that it would offend him and make him feel uncomfortable. He shut his mouth, propped himself up on the bed, and planned to sit up and drink by himself.

"What are you doing?" Ling Xiche held him down.

"I could sit up and drink it myself."

Ling Xiche thought about it, if he choked on feeding him while lying down like this, the wound would burst open when he coughed, and it might be better to sit up and drink.

"Then I'll help you up, be careful not to open the wound."

"Ah."

Ling Xiche slowly helped him sit up, then lifted the quilt and his clothes to look at his wound, the area where the bandage had been bandaged was still white with no bleeding, and only then did he bring the bowl to him.

Shen Chen took the medicine bowl and drank the medicine directly. He drank too fast and choked, and coughed. Ling Xiche hurriedly covered his wound.

After coughing, because the wound was pulled, Shen Chen lay on Ling Xiche's shoulder for a long time before he recovered.Ling Xiche took another look at his clothes and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Shen Chen, do you want to continue sleeping or what do you want to do next?"

"I want to just sit like this for a while."

Hearing this, Ling Xiche supported him to lean back on the pillow, then sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him.

"Xi Che, don't you have anything else to say besides asking me if the wound hurts and if I want to do something?"

Shen Chen regretted it when he asked this question, he already knew his attitude, so did he still expect something when he asked this question?

Ling Xiche tilted his head and thought for a while and said, "You really have to be careful to guard Zhaoguo next. As soon as the matter of Concubine Qi is over, there will be killers who will come to kill me immediately, which means that Zhaoguo has confirmed that Concubine Qi's matter is related to me. Related. You think, I am a factor that suddenly appeared beyond their control, and they are going to get rid of me. In other words, they may have always thought that Duan Guo was under their control. I feel that in You have to be more careful about a lot of things."

Shen Chen lowered his eyes with some disappointment, "You have worked hard after thinking so much."

"Ok?"

"It's nothing."

Ling Xiche saw that something was wrong with Shen Chen, and asked concerned, "What's wrong with you? Are you so tired from sitting?"

"Well, maybe."

Ling Xiche sat next to his pillow, helped him up and leaned against her, and then pulled the quilt up to cover his body.

"Just lean on me, will it be more comfortable this way? When you get tired from sitting in this position, I'll help you lie down on your back."

Shen Chen glanced at him, he was hugging himself now, with a very natural expression on his face, feeling a little confused about him.

What is he thinking in his heart?
