love concubine

Chapter 11: Battle Qi

When Lan came back and saw me lying on the prince's chest, she was stunned for a while without moving.It wasn't until I quietly sat up and waved to her that she walked lightly to the bed with the medicinal soup in her face.

"Master Ji?..." She glanced at the sleeping prince and asked in a low voice.

I gave her a wry smile and said softly, "My lord forbids me to get out of bed...he wants me to stay in bed until he wakes up..."

"Ah!...hehe!" She sat on the small chair beside the bed, giggling, "The prince is doing it for Mr. Ji too. It's better to warm up if you have a fever. If the prince hadn't hugged you last night The son is sleeping, the son may have a severe fever today!" He blew on the medicine soup, and carefully carried the spoon over the lying body of the prince, "Come on, sir, drink carefully. Don't dirty the prince."

I leaned forward and drank the bitter medicine from the spoon.

"It's bitter, right? Don't be afraid! I secretly brought sweet lotus seeds!"

"Thank you, Sister Lan!..."

"Silly boy, what are you thankful for? Look, even the prince loves you so much! Even if I didn't bring sweet lotus seeds, the prince will bring you when he wakes up!"

"My lord, he is so considerate to everyone..." I peeked at the person below me.I saw that his sleeping face seemed a little tired.Maybe the matter of the princess really exhausted him... It would be great if Old General Cui could find the princess quickly... In this way, I don't have to accept the prince's kindness with a guilty conscience, and the prince can rest assured of the princess .

"I've never heard that the prince is a considerate person. I've heard of coldness, arrogance, and a wooden face..."

"Who are you talking about?" Suddenly a deep voice came from below.

Lan and I were startled, "My lord?!"

"My servant disturbed the prince's sleep, please forgive me!" She put down the medicinal soup and knelt on the ground in panic.

"Tsk..." The prince sat up lazily, turned his face to look at the medicine soup on the ground, and said suddenly, "Let Xiaoxue drink the medicine first." Then he turned over and got out of bed, went to the round table and poured it himself A cup of tea to drink.

I took the medicine from Lan's hand and swallowed it all at once.Suddenly, there was a bitter taste in my mouth, which made me frown and wink unconsciously.

"Lan, go get the sweet lotus seeds."

"Go back to the lord, the servant has brought it..."

I was afraid that the prince was still angry with Lan, so I added, "Sister Lan has already prepared..."

"Hmm." The prince just hummed, and the one who scratched his head looked around, as if he was looking for something or thinking about something.

He stood up suddenly, feeling a little annoyed and said, "Xiaoxue, rest here." Then he turned and left.

"Is the lord going to Yerong Jingge?!" I blurted out.

He stopped abruptly, and I was also stunned by my actions just now.I actually questioned the whereabouts of the prince! ...I am just a male concubine, a fake princess...Although I have always been very concerned about why the prince hasn't come back these few nights...Obviously he wants me to move here to share a room with him.But after I came, I couldn't see him coming back at night, and I couldn't see him getting up in the morning.The prince just sent guards to protect me and the young prince, but he ignored his own safety...

"Xiaoxue," the prince suddenly said softly, and I looked up at him in astonishment.The indifferent smile on his face was a bit far-fetched, "Do you still remember Mo Wenxi and Qian Shu?"

"Huh?..." Why did you mention them all of a sudden? "Remember……"

"Okay. You have a good rest now. If you don't burn after noon, you can put on men's clothes and come to Ye Rong Jing Pavilion to find me."

I startled.Is this... an invitation? !Can I leave the palace and go outside by myself? !Ever since I came to Xuanzhong Palace, I have never tried to walk outside alone!

I laughed foolishly, and forgot about my gaffe just now, and nodded happily, "Yeah!"

The prince also smiled, turned around and stepped out of the room.

At noon, my fever really subsided.

I put on my usual plain yellow robe, and Jean Lan led me to the back door secretly.

"Master Ji, do you really not want Lan to follow?" She looked worried, as if she was afraid that I would pass out or be taken away on the way.

"I'm really fine!" I laughed at her for worrying too much, "I know the capital very well! What's more, I'm not a lady who stays at home. I'm a man!"

"That's what makes people worry..." She pouted and complained.

I was dumbfounded by her words.He could only pat the top of her head and walk away.

When I came to Ye Rong Jing Pavilion, I asked the waiter about the prince's wing, but he suddenly asked me, "Excuse me, are you Young Master Ji?"

"um, yes……"

"Master Ji, I haven't seen you for a long time! I used to pretend to serve tea to my brothers, but in fact, I came to see you playing the piano!"

As soon as I heard him say that I am from here, I couldn't wait to ask, "Then do you know that Sister Fu is still there?! There are other sisters? Why are you missing them?"

"Miss Fu is married. She seems to have married some rich and powerful family, and then redeemed many girls by the way."

"Married?!" Unexpectedly, in just one year, Sister Fu found her husband.Hope she is happy now. "Are you from the capital?"

"No. It's some big man from a foreign race. It seems to be a prince from the Xiye clan or something..."

"A foreign prince?!" I couldn't help being surprised.Wouldn't Sister Nafu become a concubine? !However, Sister Fu is kind-hearted, and she is now married to a good family, which is also her blessing.

"Young Master Ji, too! Young Master is Princess Ziyin's male concubine now! I heard that Princess Ziyin is a stunning beauty?"

The topic suddenly turned to me, and I couldn't help but smile wryly, "His Royal Highness often wears a veil, and Ke Xue has no chance to see it..."

"But I heard from the market today that an assassin sneaked into the palace at night last night, scaring Princess Ziyin's face. The servants of the palace heard from the guards that when the prince hugged the princess in his arms, the princess was well-behaved." Tired of being on the lord's chest, looking like a little bird cuddling with happiness? Hee hee!"

What? !My heart is screaming.What kind of guards dare to spread the word about what happened last night? !and! ...and said that Her Royal Highness is a beauty! ...What a happy look... Isn't this all about me? !How can I have a little bird to depend on? !Didn't they see that I was a man? !I wasn't in disguise as Joe!

"How can such a thing happen!..." I roared angrily, but suddenly thought that those guards didn't see clearly who I was, isn't it just right? !If they do find out that I'm a fake princess, it's going to be hard.After thinking about it, I have to be thankful that I look like a daughter...

"Mr. Hei Ji, don't be angry!..." Seeing that I was angry, the man quickly apologized with a smile, "The most important thing is that the princess is fine later, isn't she? Well! I hope that the assassin can be caught as soon as possible. I don't know A life-and-death assassin dares to sneak into Prince Xuanzhong’s mansion to assassinate?! Hehe. Doesn’t he know that Prince Xuanzhong is the son of the former General Fengxuan?! He..."

"Okay, okay...can you tell me where the prince is?..."

"Well... we little ones, shouldn't we casually tell outsiders the whereabouts of the prince?"

Didn't you say it earlier? ! "Kesue is not an outsider... What's more, the prince asked Kexue to come to him..."

"But……"

"Master Ji?" A strange voice suddenly came from ahead.

"Ah!" The shop waiter hurriedly left me, ran to Qian Shu, the eldest son of the prefect of the capital, and bowed to say hello, "Mr. Qian! What are your orders? Let us take it to the wing room. Already? Hehe..."

"It's okay." Mr. Qian smiled gently, "I happened to come out and saw Mr. Ji downstairs, so I just planned to come over to say hello." After saying that, he took out a few coins from the skirt and handed them to the waiter, "You are not here matter."

The waiter in the shop took the broken money with both hands, and was so happy that he bowed deeply and kept thanking him.Mr. Qian winked at me, then put his hands across my shoulders and took the opportunity to pull me out of the Ye Rong Jing Pavilion.

"Money!... Mr. Qian! Ke Xue is here to find the prince..." When I was about to step out of the Yerong Jing Pavilion, I hurriedly stopped her.

"That's it..." Mr. Qian seemed to be thinking, "But the prince is sleeping and resting now. He won't wake up until the afternoon."

I secretly wondered why Mr. Qian knew so well when the prince would wake up, "How did Mr. Qian know..."

"Ha!" He smiled politely, "The prince has been staying at Ye Rong Jing Pavilion for the past few days. We just said that if he doesn't come home, the princess will feel lonely. Unexpectedly, he was willing to go back to the mansion to rest yesterday, and it happened to happen The princess was assassinated. The son said, is it God's will?"

After hearing this, I was startled, "It's...it's really God's will..." The prince...it turns out that he really stayed in Ye Rong Jing Pavilion these few nights.He has never spent the night in Yerong Jingge... If I had known this, I shouldn't have moved to his wing.It makes me feel like the prince is avoiding me now...

"Master Ji seems to be very tired. The princess was assassinated last night, so you can't rest well, right?"

"Huh?" I recovered from my sadness, and met Master Qian's gentle eyes, "It's okay... It's just that Kexue is a little tired because the palace has a lot of busy things recently..."

"Busy thing? Can't you leave it to the servants?"

I smiled desolately, "What's the difference between male concubines, male pets, and servants?" They are all the property of the old men.Especially now that the princess is not here, no one will protect me anymore...or will the prince protect me?  …

"Come on." Mr. Qian suddenly held my hand, "Let's go."

"Young Master Qian?!"

"It's rare that Mr. Ji comes out, let Qian take you to play around?" His hearty smile reminded me of him who once said this to me.

After I became a male concubine, he rarely had the opportunity to leave the palace. He also accompanied me to wander aimlessly under the scorching sun...

I was stunned by Mr. Qian and pulled me out of the door, but I was suddenly stopped by someone behind me, "Mr. Ji! Qian Shu!"

"Tsk." Seeing who it was, Mr. Qian snorted coldly with a smile, "Second Master Mo, why are you here?"

"I sensed that Mr. Ji was coming, so I ran out to see it. How could I have met him!" Mr. Mo squeezed between us shaking his folding fan, and Mr. Qian had to let go of my hand .

"Hey Kexue!" Mr. Mo suddenly put away the folding fan and took my hands, "I heard that there was an assassin in the palace last night? Are you surprised?"

"Kose..."

"Master Ji is not a girl, how can a mere assassin frighten him?" Qian replied coldly.

"Master Qian, this is not a male-female issue! If I knew there was an assassin in my family, I would be afraid too! Isn't that right, Ke Xue?" Mr. Mo blinked at me suddenly.

"Ah... um... yes..." I had no choice but to agree, but I was a little happy in my heart. Neither of these two people seemed to regard me as a woman...

"So?" Mr. Qian said calmly, "Mo Wenxi, you have seen Mr. Ji, so you won't go back to play chess?"

"What about you? Where are you going now?"

"Master Ji rarely has the opportunity to come out. I remember that you can play the piano, so I plan to take him to the piano house to have a look."

"Huh? What a coincidence! Dad just brought a few famous pianos from outside the Great Wall a few days ago. Why don't Mr. Ji come to my house to play and watch the piano?" He held my hand as he spoke.

"But!..." I was about to say something to decline, but Mr. Mo suddenly smiled wickedly at Mr. Qian and teased, "Although Mr. Qian doesn't like rhythm, I think there should be some music in my family. You'll be interested in other things. Young Master Qian, can you come with me?" Then he pulled me away first.

I looked back at Young Master Qian in embarrassment.He snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, returned his usual gentle smile on his face, and followed slowly.
