Princess, how am I from you?

Jin Yang sleeps until midnight, wakes up, stretches out his hand in a daze, seeing no one around him, so frightened that he regains his energy for an instant, and sits up straight away, his heart pounding and pounding, afraid that Xincheng will run out again and lose it.Quickly got out of bed, pulled on some shoes, and ran outside. Once in the outside room, the lights outside were still on. Next to Guan Xin's very awkward sleeping position, a small bag bulged, and Xincheng was sleeping soundly inside.Jin Yang's pounding heart finally jumped back into his stomach.She started doing yoga after putting Xincheng to sleep, and fell asleep when she was tired. She never thought that Xincheng would come out to find Guan Xin by herself after she fell asleep.Seeing that Guan Xin had given all her quilts to Xincheng, and she had nothing on her body, Jin Yang tiptoed back to his bed, took out Xincheng's quilt and put it on Guan Xin's body.When she moved, Guan Xin opened his eyes.

"Did you hurt sister?" Jin Yang suppressed his throat.

"No, it hurts so much that I can't sleep well. Don't tell your fifth sister and sixth sister about me being beaten, so that they don't worry." Guan Xin slowly got used to changing her position. All hurt.

"Well, I see, sister, I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have suffered this much."

Guan Xin saw Jinyang's guilt clearly, and quickly comforted him, "It's my fault, it has nothing to do with you, don't blame yourself, go to bed quickly, I can't run with you tomorrow, you can't be lazy , run well with the new city, and persevere every day."

"Well, sister should go to bed earlier."

How could Guan Xin sleep well? She would wake up with pain when she moved a little bit. When it was almost dawn, she was really sleepy. Maybe it was because of the strength of the medicine. meeting.In a daze, she felt that someone was taking off her pants. She struggled subconsciously in a daze, and then she lay down again with an ouch, and when she turned her head, it turned out that Yuzhang was beside her, with her hands still in the position of wanting to take off her pants .

"How did you come."

"Take off your trousers." Yuzhang's complexion was not very good, and it was obvious that he was in a very ugly mood.

"It's much better, it doesn't hurt so much. I took the medicine yesterday, and those guards didn't really hit me hard. Really, don't worry." Guan Xin said, enduring the pain, pretending that it didn't hurt that much , retreated his trousers to his knees and lay down again, buried his face on the pillow for a while, adjusted his expression, then raised his head and smiled at Yuzhang, "It just looks scary, but it doesn't hurt that much."

Yuzhang didn't answer, with a cold face, he took out some ointment left by Wu Cairen yesterday, and gently applied it on those wounds, with gentle movements, blowing on it from time to time, the level of care was the same as that of the cold one. His face is simply inverse.

Guan Xin lay on the pillow and hummed continuously. I couldn't tell whether it was painful or comfortable, but he couldn't help humming anyway.As soon as she hummed, Yuzhang lowered his head and blew on it until all the wounds were covered, then put away the ointment, washed his hands in the basin, and sat back beside Guan Xin, a little flushed. eyes, looking at Guan Xin in silence.The skin that was originally so tender and smooth would still be smooth now, but the sight of those bruised and swollen scars made her worry.

Guan Xin pouted her buttocks, trying to get up, but was held down by Yuzhang, "Don't move around. I'm sorry for you."

"Is it bitter or not? I didn't expect to have the opportunity to experience the board in this life. Let's take it as a novel experience. I told Jinyang last night that I asked her not to tell you. I didn't expect you to know it." , don’t worry, really, it doesn’t hurt anymore.”

"Guan Xin, I heard you've been boarded."

It was Chang Le, Guan Xin hurriedly pouted and pulled up her trousers, such a big movement made her grin, and Yu Zhang burst into tears from her flustered look, "What are you afraid of, sister is not an outsider, yesterday you You are not even afraid of martial talents, what are you afraid of, sister?"

He hurriedly pulled up his trousers before Changle entered the room, "I couldn't help it yesterday, then if you don't mind, I'll take it off again."

Just as Yuzhang rolled his eyes, Changle came in. "Take it off, let me see." Before the two of them could react, Chang Le took a look at the waistband of Guan Xin's just-made trousers, then let go, and slapped him badly, "Don't say that." , quite elastic, looks okay, not very serious."

Guan Xin knocked on the pillow in pain, "Grandma, please be gentle." Tears came out of her eyes.

Yuzhang took out a handkerchief and wiped Guan Xin's tears away, feeling distressed and helpless, and finally said, "Yes, let you speak up."

"Sixth Sister, I'm sorry, I failed to protect Sister Guan." Jin Yang followed Chang Le in, and now he stood in front of Yu Zhang, feeling so guilty that his eyes were red.

Yuzhang wiped Jinyang's tears again with the handkerchief just now, "Sizi is already fine, she provoked it herself, no wonder you."

The baby feels wronged, but the baby doesn't say anything.Guan Xin wanted to have a private conversation with Yuzhang, but the other three big light bulbs were too bright, so he turned his pitiful eyes to Changle for help.Chang Le deliberately ignored her at first, until Guan Xin called out "Sister, please."

Changle kindly took Jinyang and Xincheng out on the pretext of wanting to have a conversation with the two younger sisters, so only Yuzhang and Guan Xin were left in the room.As soon as the man left, Guan Xin couldn't wait to grab Yu Zhang's hand, wanting to express his lovesickness.

Yuzhang also let her hold her hand. With Guan Xin not around for a few days, Yuzhang felt that everything was not right at home. He felt that there were a lot of people missing, deserted, and his heart was empty.

"Did you take good care of yourself these few days?" Guan Xin saw that Yuzhang's eyes were bloodshot, and he didn't seem to be sleeping well.

"I'm fine, but you, who obviously wanted you to take care of the two younger sisters, turned out like this. It must have hurt yesterday."

Yuzhang felt distressed and smoothed Guan Xin's already messy hair with his hands. It had been a few days since they hadn't seen each other, and the feeling of missing him was not good.

"Your majesty is acting like it doesn't hurt that much. I'm quite puzzled. Why do you say that a concubine of hers did those things? If it's because she and His Royal Highness are targeting me, why do you treat Jinyang and Jinyang?" The new city is not very friendly, so the emperor doesn't know about it?"

"Speaking of it, it's all speculation. Because there is no evidence, and her natal brother has some prestige in the court, if there is no conclusive evidence, the father is not good enough to directly deal with people. We can only strengthen our precautions. The reason is that my sister and I have some guesses After our army raised troops in Taiyuan, the youngest son of the first emperor, who was only 14 years old at the time, was killed by Concubine Yin's father, Yin Shishi. Later, our army sent troops to Chang'an. Yin Shishi was the guard of Chang'an City. He refused to surrender. After our army fought hard, Chang'an fell, Yin Shishi was punished, and his youngest son and daughter were sent to Yeting. Later, this daughter was rewarded by the grandfather as a concubine to the father, who was still King Qin at that time, so she was very beautiful, and the father loved him very much. , and soon gave birth to a prince. After her father ascended the throne, she was also named a first-grade concubine Yinde. Her younger brother Yin Hongzhi was very good at flattering his father. He is also on the rise, and the honor and favor he received is almost equal to that of Lord Sikong Changsun, and he has attracted many dignitaries to associate with him, and the power in the court should not be underestimated."

Yuzhang didn't say anything further down, but Guan Xin understood, she just wanted to say that Li Shimin was really awesome, such a plot of national hatred and family hatred, he dared to put the enemy's daughter to sleep, and even named him a character Concubine, and gave birth to a son, are you not afraid that she will try her best to kill your other sons and assist her son to take the throne? "Your imperial father is really powerful!" Guan Xin really meant what she said. If she was sleeping with that Concubine Yin, she would have to be worried. It's no wonder Li You would rebel later.

"Just listen to these words, and don't discuss them with others."

"Then she has the motive to abuse Xincheng, but why is she targeting me? I didn't offend her either?"

"Maybe it's because you belong to me and sister, maybe it's because..."

"Because of what?" What's the problem?Why are you still hesitating?

"It's nothing, it's all guesswork, and you can't count it. In the future, you should be quiet and stay away from her. After a while, I will find a way to get you out."

"Yuyu, I miss you so much, come here, I'll tell you something." Forget about it, anyway, she just needs to stay away from now on.

Yuzhang didn't doubt that he was there, so he bent down and approached Guan Xin.

"Lower." When Yuzhang was almost pressing his ears to Guan Xin's lips, Guan Xin broke Yuzhang's face, grabbed his lips in one fell swoop, and tossed and turned for a long time.It made Yuzhang blush before he let go, smacking his mouth, not kissing enough.

Yuzhang stood up blushing, and looked outside nervously, but luckily no one was there, if someone saw this, he would die.Now a single roll of the eye is not enough to express Yuzhang's embarrassment at the moment. He wanted to pinch her, but he couldn't do it seeing her in pain, so he just flicked his sleeves and left.But after walking two steps, he turned back and stood in front of Guan Xin, "I'll leave if I mess around again, and I won't come to see you again."

Guan Xin was really scared, stretched out a paw, aggrieved, "No, I just miss you so much, I dream of you every night."

Seeing Guan Xin's aggrieved look, Yuzhang softened his heart again. He held the paw, and his voice was as gentle as water, "Be quiet, I will find a way to get you out as soon as possible." What to say again, but when he heard footsteps and Changle's voice, Yuzhang quickly let go of his hand, and the man also took two steps back, regaining his cold expression, seeing the person coming in, Yuzhang's heart turned, luckily he saw the opportunity be fast.

"My daughter pays homage to her father."

The person who came was none other than Li Shimin.The arrival of Li Shimin made Yuzhang's already unsteady heart skip a beat.

Guan Xin struggled to get up to salute.Li Shimin waved his hand, "No."

Guan Xin lay down on the bed to thank him.After that, no one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not very pleasant, Chang Le stepped forward and took Li Shimin's arm, "Why did my father come to see my son so early in the morning? Liu Niang and I also said that we would go to greet you when my father came down from court."

"Isn't it because I heard that my two daughters have entered the palace and didn't say to come to see my father first, so they came here. If you don't come to see daddy, daddy will come to see you in person."

Li Shimin's tone sounded like a joke, but Guan Xin's heart skipped a few beats.It seems that she wants to catch rape. Are you still wondering what she has with Yuzhang?

Yuzhang was also afraid when he heard Li Shimin's words. Fortunately, she had been paying attention to the movement outside, otherwise she would have been caught right away.

"Father, look at you, you still can't get jealous with our little son. Originally, Liu Niang and I made an appointment to enter the palace today to pay respects to the father. While visiting Sizi and Xincheng, let's see if this guy has any problems." You didn't make your father angry, and when you came in, you hadn't come down yet, so we went to see Sizi and Xincheng together, speaking of this, is there something difficult for you to go down so late today?" Chang Le held his hand Li Shimin's hand led him to the front hall.

"Well, there is good news from the frontier today. The chaos in Tuyuhun has been pacified, so I said a few more words earlier." Li Shimin followed Changle's support and walked outside in her footsteps. When he was leaving the door, he turned his head and said, "Guan Xin, do you still remember hating me?"

"Guan Xin has never held grudges against the emperor, and I still want to thank the emperor for his trust in the civilian girl. The civilian girl sent the emperor respectfully." Guan Xin pouted, kowtowed on the kang with pain.But let's go, if you don't go, she can't stop lying down.

Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction, and glanced at Yuzhang who was following him on the other side, seemingly unintentionally.When they arrived at the front hall, they looked at the four daughters sitting around him, three were born by the empress, and one was raised by the empress, and they couldn't help but think of their former wife again.The three prostitutes all looked somewhat like their deceased wives, especially Changle, who looked more and more like her mother.After looking around, his eyes finally fell on Yuzhang's face. This introverted but gentle daughter, because of the queen's relationship, has also loved her a lot these years, but I love her, and I can't let her go wrong .Even if she doesn't have it now, she can't put the possible dangers by her side and ruin her reputation.

"Beat Guan Xin this time, you must have some complaints in your heart, after all, she belongs to you."

"Father, you are serious. I heard Sizi tell you the reason. She was the one who kept her mouth shut. You discipline her for us, so my daughter will not complain." Yuzhang replied quite well, and there was nothing wrong with it.

"I see that Guan Xin is quite talented, and I heard that she is already in her twenties, and she is still in her boudoir. According to the law, she should be held accountable. Now that she is in the palace, I will make her a talented person. In this way, you won't be afraid of her returning to the market again, and you sisters can be taken care of by her at any time."

Yuzhang was stunned, what she feared most had come true, she had been worrying about such a day, maybe what she hadn’t finished talking to Guan Xin just now, was this, Concubine Yin often persecuted the people in the harem by virtue of being favored. It was always difficult for people to catch anything. Guan Xin was targeted probably because his father paid too much attention to Guan Xin recently. "Father, I'm afraid it's not right."

Li Shimin could see Yuzhang's surprised expression very clearly. What he said just now meant to be tentative. He always felt that what Li Chengqian said was somewhat reasonable, and the recent changes in Yuzhang were indeed somewhat obvious. The changes were not only It's physical condition, as well as changes in personality and mood. He has found out that since this daughter came back from Luoyang last year, she has become more and more indifferent to that son-in-law, and this Guan Xin acts like a half-master in everything she does in the princess mansion. , these are all allowed by Liu Niang, which is not unusual.

"What's wrong?" Li Shimin's tone was unavoidably more serious.

"Father Emperor" Chang Le also missed a beat in his heart just now, afraid that Liu Niang would say something irreversible in a hurry, so he quickly interjected, "Guan Xin is just a street person, she doesn't understand the rules of the palace, and secondly, her personality She's a little naughty, now she's just a servant and maybe she has some scruples, if she really has to be named a talented person, if she relies on her father's prestige to cause some troubles that can't be ended, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss, Liu Niang Her body still needs her to take care of her body, and her son may also need her now, so it's better to let her be a squire, that guy thinks he has a lot of money, and now the two shops are in our hands, killing her is not enough. Will be willing to leave."

love money?Li Shimin didn't speak, but still kept his gaze on Yuzhang's face, he knew that this was not what Yuzhang wanted to say.

Seeing her father's scrutinizing gaze, Yuzhang stabilized her mind. She did feel a little impulsive just now, but the words of elder sister reminded her in time, so she stabilized her impatience just now, and then The sister's words continued, "There is another point that is very inappropriate. My daughter also asked her if she wanted to find a suitable person to marry. For the sake of helping me recuperate my body, I found her a husband's family, but Guan Xin seemed to have suffered some kind of heartbreak, so she rejected me at that time, saying that she would never marry in this life, and if the country's law did not allow it, She is willing to sign a contract of selling herself as a slave with me."

Li Shimin frowned, if Guan Xin really signed the deed of selling himself, he would become a slave, he definitely couldn't accept a slave into the harem.The slaves outside are different from those maids in her palace. The maids belong to him, but the slaves outside are not included in the harem as he wants, and those officials will be annoyed to death Him, especially Wei Zheng.

"Then the contract of sale has already been signed?" Li Shimin couldn't help asking, this kind of thing is not afraid of Yuzhang lying, it doesn't matter if you just sign the contract of sale, as long as you don't go to the Ministry of Households to record and change your household registration, it is not considered slavery, then the contract of sale will be torn up That's it, and you haven't changed your household registration. You just need to ask the household registration officer to check it.

"Not yet. But father, Guan Xin has made it clear, and she has a different concept from most women, and her character is a bit stubborn. If she is forced into the harem, I am afraid that she will behave irrationally, so I still want to Please think twice, Father." This was what Yuzhang had thought up a long time ago, but she never told Guan Xin about it. Originally, she didn't really want to change Guan Xin's good civilian household registration into a slave household registration, but now she I have to use such an excuse as a rhetoric.

Seeing this, Chang Le hurriedly made up for the omission, "Yeah, father, that girl looks cheerful all day long, but she has a particularly strong temper. Maybe it has something to do with her years of life in the market, and she has her own thoughts and considerations in everything." , will not be easily manipulated by others, if she said that she would rather sign the deed of sale than marry, it is not a joke, after all, no one wants to be a commoner and a slave."

"Well, we'll discuss this matter later. This time I beat her, she said she doesn't hold grudges, but I can see that she has resentment in her heart. You can solve it. Now there is no mother in this palace." It is true that some people will be restless in governance, but you don't have to worry, I am not old and confused."

"Father, let Sister Guan go back to Sixth Sister's place. Sizi now insists on studying and exercising according to the schedule that Sister Guan made. Sister Guan is not used to life in the palace, let her go back..."

"Let's talk about this later, let her recover from her injuries with peace of mind. I still have paperwork to approve, so I will go back first. Don't rush to leave, you two. I will come back at lunch."

"Farewell to my father." The four princesses got up at the same time.

Li Shimin interrupted Jinyang's words, stood up and announced the decision unilaterally. He is the emperor, so he can't even keep a civilian girl?And the more the two daughters said this, the more he wanted to keep them. Their words still need to be considered.

After Li Shimin left, Yuzhang couldn't care about anything else, it was better to let Guan Xin know what his father was thinking, and to be mentally prepared when facing it, not only this matter, but also the last resort of selling himself deed.To be honest, Yuzhang really didn't want Guan Xin to sign that thing. If he signed it, he would become a slave. This would be an insult to Guan Xin. Yuzhang believed that Guan Xin would definitely sign for her, but in her heart But he felt ashamed of Guan Xin.When Guan Xin was with her, she was an innocent girl, but she had so many restraints on her body. From this point of view, she was not worthy of Guan Xin.Now it is even more important to sign the humiliating contract of sale for her, how can she not feel guilty about it.

"Oh, it doesn't matter, just sign it. I don't really want me to be a slave. Besides, I am willing to be your slave. If this matter can be settled by signing such a contract of sale, there is no need to pay Why do you refuse other prices, it’s just an identity, it doesn’t matter.” Guan Xin listened to Yuzhang and Changle’s plan, expressed understanding, and accepted, after all, it’s more than paying the price of blood, a slave is really It's nothing.

"But you don't know the importance of that contract of sale. If you sign it, you will change from ordinary household registration to slave registration in the future. Your life and death, your freedom, and everything about you are in your hands." If the contract is owned by that person, you have no self to speak of, and you can only live for your master." Yu Zhang was afraid that Guan Xin would not understand the meaning of the paper, so he explained it to her.

Chang Le pulled Yuzhang, trying to prevent her from speaking too clearly. After all, she is still a little selfish. If Guan Xin signs, the problem will be solved much easier. Taking Guan Xin into the harem will take a lot of effort and thought, it's too troublesome.

Yuzhang understood Changle's thoughts, but she couldn't do that, she had to make it clear to Guan Xin now, otherwise the guilt in her heart would be even heavier, and it would become a hurdle in her heart.

There were only the three of them in the room, Guan Xin was still lying there, stretched out his hand to grab Yuzhang's clenched hand on his knee, and stretched it out with great effort. Knead gently, wanting to make those finger marks disappear quickly.

"Sign, you control everything about me, if you don't sign, everything about me is still in your hands, so there is no difference between signing and not signing, I don't care what others think of me, the only thing I care about is what you think of me, if you put I am a lover, and I will still be if I sign it. If you treat me as a servant, I will not change anything if I don’t sign it. Although I don’t sign it, I have the freedom to come and go, but do you think I will go? I can Are you willing to go? Even if I go, where can I go? In this era, I have no relatives, no friends, I have nothing, and I am alone. You are the only meaning for me to live in this era, so you say, I still have What is the reason for the refusal?"

Yuzhang's other hand was tightly covering Guan Xin's, and his red eyes looked affectionately at the person who regarded her as the only one. "I swear, I, Li Qingjue, will never betray you in this life." This was the first time that Yuzhang had made such a solemn and clear promise to Guan Xin since they established their relationship for so long.

Chang Le was watching with tears in her eyes. The affectionate expression of these two people today made her very envious, and it also reminded her of the time when she was so nervous when facing her that she wanted to clench her sleeves. Little fool, it's a pity that she is not her.The only meaning of life, such love words, let Changle have a new understanding of Guan Xin's glibness, Liuniang, that idiot, was so moved that he even swore to do such a thing.There is a god three feet up, how can an oath be easily made.

With a sigh, Chang Le took out his handkerchief and wiped the tears that were irritated from the corners of his eyes, "Okay, okay, don't make it look like a parting life, but it's just a contract of selling one's body, if you sign it, you sign it, at worst, you can change it back later. That's right. The most important thing now is how to get her out, how to make the emperor stop doubting you, those life and death, sour love words, let's save it when it's just the two of you. .”

Yuzhang felt a little uncomfortable being teased by Changle, but he didn't let go of Guan Xin's hand.

"I already have an idea. After a few days, when you recover from your injury, I will find a suitable time to ask you to go back."

"What's the idea, don't make fun of your body." I have to say that Changle has a fairly deep understanding of Yuzhang.As soon as Yuzhang said that, she guessed Yuzhang's thoughts all over the place.

The corners of Yuzhang's lips froze, "Why, I won't make fun of my own body, sister, don't worry, you will know what to do when the time comes."

Changle was skeptical and didn't fully believe Yuzhang's words, but Yuzhang didn't admit it, she couldn't use things that haven't happened to force her to say something.

During lunch, due to Guan Xin's physical disability, Li Shimin was still lying on his stomach on the bed. Li Shimin was accompanied by his four daughters and one son for lunch.After lunch, Yuzhang and Changle had no reason to stay any longer, so they had to bid farewell to Guan Xin who was full of reluctance, and walked away cruelly.

As soon as Yuzhang and Changle left, Li Shimin's reward arrived.The name of the reward is very simple, because Guan Xin's care for Jin Yang has won the emperor's favor.Guan Xin looked at the cloth trays in the middle of the ground in front of him and snorted, sugar-coated cannonballs.

"Sister Guan, Father really wants to accept you as a talented person. In fact, it's not bad. Maybe you can be promoted to a noble concubine in the future. If you give birth to a prince and princess for Father, then there will be more chances of promotion. "Jin Yang picked out a pair of Yu Ruyi from the rewards Guan Xin received and played with them in his hands.

The thought of being called Guan Cairen feels so ugly, Guan Cairen, coffin man!And the thought of having a baby, Emma, ​​is frightening to death. "Oh, little girl, I think too much. Maybe many women want to fly on the branches and become phoenixes, but unfortunately it doesn't include me. Is there anything you two like here? If you like it, just take it directly. Anyway, I almost use it. I can't get on it." After lying down for too long, it hurts everywhere, Guan Xin slowly moved to the ground, and limped around the room.

Xincheng looked at Guan Xin and then at those rewards, his eyes seemed to be full of anticipation.Guan Xin rubbed her little head, this little guy thinks beautifully, but unfortunately, no.

"What? The emperor rewarded her with so many things!" Concubine Yin swung her arm, and all the books on the table and the four treasures of the study were swept to the ground by her.

"Yes, Chunlai was also sent away by the prince. This is a letter from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

With deep hatred in Concubine Yin's gloomy eyes, she tore up the letter paper in her hand, "Give this package to Chun Wang, and let him find a chance to replace those spices."

Alan picked up a blue satin package on the table, which was quite heavy, and a faint fragrance emanated from the package.Without asking any more questions, I left with the package in my arms.
