The reborn prince is hard to raise

Gu Mingheng walked down step by step on the wooden ladder, and looked up at the books placed on the top shelf.Although the Zangshu Pavilion of the Chongwen Museum is cleaned every day, some corners are still covered with dust, and the dust will fly when it is moved a little.

He carried a thick stack of books and walked to the sandalwood table by the window. The sleeves of his plain coat were stained with dust, and the color looked a little gray.Pulling out the chair and sitting down, he slowly opened the somewhat yellowed "Dayong Mountains and Rivers" and read it carefully.

There was a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in Bai's hand, and the library was quiet and silent, as if isolated from the world.His profile is reflected between the yellowed scrolls, like an eternal silhouette.

For the past five days, he has slept in the side hall at night, and two days ago Lu Chengning would send Jiang Bai over to ask if he wanted to go back to the hall to rest.After being rejected again and again, there has been no more inquiries.

Is Aning cold-hearted?The hand holding the pen paused, and the thick ink from Gu Mingheng's pen tip fell onto the rice paper, leaving a deep ball of ink.He looked at the stretching mountains and rivers in the book, and suddenly lost his mind.

In fact, I already knew why I was unwilling to face you, Aning, I never cared about you in the last life, but at the beginning of this life, I made up my mind to seek the throne for you.I never thought about the rest—I never thought about marrying a wife and having children, nor did I think about becoming a king or minister.

From the day I entered the palace, I knew that I was no longer the old Gu Mingheng.

Although I am your concubine, I have never recognized this title - if you are a king, I will be a subject, if you are just Ah Ning, then I will be just Ah Heng.But you are the prince, but I am not the princess.

With a sinking of his wrist, the tip of the pen fell on the paper, and with a flick of his thin sleeve, the pen flew away. He looked at the ink marks gradually appearing on the paper, but his eyes were calm.I reject everything others impose on me—but I don't know what I want in my heart.

I don't want to lose my heart, and let others dominate my emotions; I don't want to hand over all of myself, but I'm not sure what I can get back.

It doesn't matter whether you are stubborn or worrying too much, it's just my persistence.

He stopped writing suddenly, as if the ink pen was about to cut through the thin paper.The hand holding the pen trembled a little, Lu Chengning kept appearing in front of his eyes, like a lingering dream.

Maybe it's just my own stubbornness, forcing myself to remember the ending of my previous life, forcing myself to forget the humiliation of dying in the depths of the dungeon all the time...

Aning, my lord, I haven't fallen in love with you yet, and I don't want to force myself for you.

Reluctantly suppressing the emotions in his heart, he opened the Anlan River Sutra Notes on the side, his eyes calmed down, and there seemed to be thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in his eyes.

When the setting sun disappeared into the sky, Gu Mingheng put down the pen in his hand and rubbed his sore wrist wearily.After the ink on the letter has dried, fold it neatly and place it in an envelope.

Leng Zeyan is now working as a state herd in Wuzhou, and the Anlan River passes through Wuzhou. Therefore, the most worrying thing for Wuzhou state herds has always been the flood in spring and summer.Although dikes are built every winter when the water level recedes, flooding still occurs in the coming year.

Gu Mingheng still remembers the reason why Leng Zeyan became the prime minister at a young age in his previous life, which had a lot to do with his governance of the Anlan River in his early years.Thinking about it so far, the design for governing the Anlan River is still amazing!So much so that he still remembers roughly until now.

He is not specialized in water conservancy, but has only dabbled in it a little, and even after spending several hours, he still can't restore the design in his memory.But thinking about it, such a crude design is enough for Leng Zeyan.

Today's Leng Zeyan only designed part of it, so why not let it be implemented earlier?

Gu Mingheng sealed the envelope with wax, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.Leng Zeyan, I will wait for your return in Beijing.

When he put "Dayong Mountains and Rivers" back on the top of the bookshelf, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps. Gu Mingheng looked down and saw Jiang Bai hurried in. premonition.

"Report to the Crown Princess, Your Highness has a high fever." He leaned down and said quickly, with panting sounds that hadn't calmed down yet.Gu Mingheng was taken aback for a moment, the words "high fever never subsides" hit his heart directly.

He moved down the wooden ladder very quickly and took a step, but the corner of his clothes caught his feet and made him stagger a few steps. He held onto the bookshelf with one hand to stabilize his figure.

He ignored Jiang Bai who was stretching out his hand to help, and walked out of Chongwen Hall with his lips tightly pressed, his eyes full of worry.The plain clothes quickly disappeared from sight, Jiang Bai stood on the spot and sighed slightly, then followed quickly.

The road from Zangshu Pavilion to the sleeping hall seemed to be extended a lot. Gu Mingheng took three steps and took two steps, and finally started to run.The wind on both sides brushed the hair beside his ear, with a low whimper.

Going around the screen and entering the inner room, he saw Lu Chengning lying on the bed. At this moment, Gu Mingheng suddenly realized that he had really lost a lot of weight.

Walking to the bed step by step, Gu Mingheng stared at Lu Chengning who was trapped in the brocade quilt. At this moment, he seemed to be sleeping uneasy, his cheeks were slightly red, and his face showed a look of pain from time to time.Her thin lips were tightly pressed together, as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it.

His hands were placed by his side, vacantly open, as if trying to grab something, but there was nothing.

Gu Mingheng sat on the side of the bed, hesitated for a moment, and then put his hand in his, and saw him reflexively holding it tightly, not letting go, feeling very sad for a moment.

"Did you tell the father and the queen?" He didn't take his eyes off Lu Chengning, while asking Jiang Bai who was waiting behind him, his voice was very low.

"The emperor sent the imperial physician here, but the empress is tired and hasn't got up yet." Jiang Bai said cautiously, keeping his head buried.I don't know if it's an illusion, but the princess seems to be in a very bad mood at this time.

"En." Gu Mingheng nodded expressionlessly after hearing this, and then ordered, "Go to decoction." Jiang Bai felt relieved when he heard this, and quickly retreated out.

Your Highness, you are right, the Crown Princess really has no heart for you.

Last night, Jiang Baihou was outside the bedroom when he suddenly heard the voice of the prince summoning him.

After entering the inner hall, he saw the prince sitting where the princess concubine usually sits, thinking about something, looking out of his mind.Since the crown prince gradually recovered, Jiang Bai always felt that his master's power was getting stronger day by day, and occasionally a look would make people tremble with each other.

The inner hall was a little empty, with a thick coolness.

Just when Jiang Bai wanted to pay his respects, he heard the prince's low voice, as if talking to himself, "Tell me, why did Ah Heng ignore Gu?" Jiang Bai didn't dare to answer, but stood quietly, respectfully Head down.He understands that he is just a slave and needs to keep his duty.

From the corner of the eye, the prince slowly raised his hand with a puzzled expression, put it on his heart, and said slowly, "Ah Heng doesn't care about Gu, Gu is very uncomfortable here." His voice was very soft, but with anxiety and Suddenly.

After a long time, Jiang Bai heard the prince's order, "Jiang Bai, I just want to take a bath." His tone returned to his usual appearance.Jiang Baizheng took the order and wanted to withdraw to make arrangements, when he heard the prince say again, "Cold water."

Jiang Bai was taken aback, it was already late autumn, if he took a bath in cold water, he might get sick, so he hesitated for a while.

"Lengshui, don't let others know." Seeing that Jiang Bai hadn't reacted yet, Lu Chengning's words were filled with displeasure.Jiang Bai was terrified when he heard this, and hurried out to give orders.

After the tub was carried into the inner hall, Jiang Bai prepared his pajamas and put them aside.The prince has never liked anyone to wait on him since he was bathing, and now no one can get close to him except the princess, so he just waits at a distance, waiting for orders.

Lu Chengning stayed in the tub for a long time, until his fingertips were covered with white wrinkles before he got up.Wrapped in pajamas, his whole body was shivering from the cold, even his lips were slightly pale, and his expression became even colder for a while.

"Your Highness, do you want ginger soup to dispel the cold?" Jiang Bai looked at the prince's whole body shivering, and said worriedly.

"No, you can go down." Then he lay down on the bed.Jiang Bai swallowed the words he hadn't spoken, retreated silently, and closed the door of the bedroom.

Only now did he understand why His Highness bathed in cold water.Seeing the worried look on the crown princess's face, the haze that has permeated the East Palace for several days should also dissipate, right?

But it's really embarrassing, Your Majesty.

After Jiang Bai left, Gu Mingheng was the only one left in the inner hall.Since Lu Chengning was very young, he hated others coming to the bedroom, so except when necessary, there were no palace attendants in the hall, and they all waited in the corridor outside the hall to wait for summons.

Gu Mingheng reached out and touched Lu Chengning's forehead, the tentacles were hot.He was covered with a thick brocade quilt, and he was lying on the bed as if he had lost his former vitality.

This kind of Lu Chengning made Gu Mingheng suddenly feel uneasy. He slowly buried his face in his palm, feeling depressed in his heart, and wanted to shed tears.

The scorching heat in his palm soaked into his skin little by little, but Gu Mingheng's heart gradually cooled down.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Bai's voice came from outside the door, and then the hidden palace door was opened. The palace attendant behind Jiang Bai was holding the medicine in his hand, and the bitter black medicine juice was still steaming.

Gu Mingheng got up and went to take it, and ordered in a low voice, "Go down first." Jiang Bai and the accompanying palace servants saluted respectfully, and quietly retreated outside the hall.

When Gu Mingheng saw the door of the palace was closed, he turned around and walked towards Lu Chengning. He saw Lu Chengning who was lying on the bed standing up at some point. He was only wearing thin clothes, looking very thin.

Seeing Gu Mingheng looking at him, his chapped lips bent, and he called out full of joy, "Ah Heng." His voice was hoarse, his eyes were a little misty, but there was obvious tenderness.

"Why did you get up?" Gu Mingheng's words were filled with reproach, and his brows were frowned, looking very worried.

Lu Chengning didn't respond when he heard his reproach, but just looked at him fixedly. His long hair was loose, and his confused appearance was a little more fragile than usual. This appearance made Gu Mingheng's heart soften for a moment.

In the end, I didn't take good care of him.

Feeling guilty, Gu Mingheng put down the medicine bowl and walked over to support him, "A'Ning, shall we go to bed and rest?" His voice became softer, coaxing softly.

Lu Chengning took advantage of the situation and leaned his head on his shoulder, holding his clothes with one hand, looking very nostalgic.He was a little weak all over, and most of his weight fell on Gu Mingheng's shoulders.

At this moment, his lips were facing Gu Mingheng's jade-like neck. After a while, he called softly, "Ah Heng." Gu Mingheng's heart trembled, and he felt a little impatient.

Gu Mingheng looked away uncomfortably, and helped him walk towards the bed.Lu Chengning didn't refuse, he just looked at Gu Mingheng's side face so intently, almost obsessed.

Sitting on the bed, Lu Chengning lay down obediently, with reddish blood in his eyes, he fixedly looked at Gu Mingheng's careful appearance, thought for a while and said, "A'Ning is very sad."

Gu Mingheng put on a brocade quilt for him, and asked, "Why is Ah Ning uncomfortable?"

Lu Chengning took his hand out of the quilt, held Gu Mingheng's hand, and then put it on his heart, muttering full of grievances, "Ah Ning feels uncomfortable here, Ah Heng ignores Aning."

His palm was very hot, so he held it loosely, but Gu Mingheng felt that he couldn't break free no matter what.

Gu Mingheng lowered his eyes, a very faint shadow fell on his eyelashes, the shadow trembled and struggled.After being silent for a long time, Gu Mingheng slowly held Lu Chengning's hand back, and said softly, "Ah Heng won't do it anymore. Ah Ning, don't be afraid, you will be fine, you will be fine." choking.

Aning and himself seem to be destined to be short-lived people, this life should be for nothing, right?

Since we don't know when God will take back the extra years, why should we be obsessed with having or not?So let it be.

"Heng, will Ah Ning die?" Lu Chengning's eyes were filled with tenderness, and even the word "death" in his mouth became so weightless.

"No!" Gu Mingheng's voice suddenly increased, and then he was a little dazed, and forced a smile, "A-Ning won't die, I won't let A-Ning die..."

"Then Ah Heng, don't be sad." Lu Chengning said weakly, with reassurance and affirmation, "Ah Ning will not die, Ah Heng don't be sad." A lot of spirits.

"En." Gu Mingheng replied with a nasal voice, stood up and was going to help him straighten the hair that fell on the pillow, just bent down, but was suddenly hugged tightly by Lu Chengning's hands, and the whole person fell on his chest all at once .
