This is too thick!
Chu Li was sweating as he rubbed his back: "I wonder when the emperor's uncle will need it? I'll take it back to Zhaolan Palace and copy it. When it's done, I'll send someone to deliver it to the emperor's uncle."
Chu Dichi picked up a chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.
"Copy it right here."
Jingying smirked: "Ninth Prince, please!"
Chu Li's right hand was still injured, making it difficult for him to lift a pen. Even if it were convenient for him to write, he would not be able to finish copying the "Earth Store Sutra" even if he sat here for three days and three nights.
How could this ask her to copy scriptures?
It was obvious that he was targeting her on purpose!
Chu Li had no choice but to obey and sat cross-legged at the low table. He picked up the wolf hair brush with his "disabled" right hand and wrote a word crookedly.
My hands hurt.
Mother, come and save me!
The only person I can count on now is you!
With this hope, Chu Li gritted his teeth and copied the first page with great difficulty. His right hand was so numb that he almost couldn't feel it. He glanced out the window and saw that the sky was getting dark, but he still hadn't waited for the announcement of "Concubine Wen has arrived."
Just as I took a breath, a heavier chess piece fell down.
Bang!
The sound was crisp, with a hint of cruelty, like some invisible warning.
Chu Li's scalp tightened and he immediately picked up the pen and continued copying.
Why hasn’t mother come yet?
Could something have delayed him?
At this late hour, what could be more important than her daughter's life?
My hands are numb.
No way.
After sitting cross-legged for so long, her legs became numb and she was about to lose consciousness.
Chu Li had a bitter face. She was copying scriptures with great difficulty, but the man sitting opposite her was playing chess leisurely, drinking tea, and looking very leisurely.
If you are so good at making trouble, why don't you go to the border to fight?
Full of bad intentions!
If you dig out your heart, is it black?
Bastard!
Chu Li complained in his heart, perhaps because he was thinking too deeply, the words he wrote unconsciously became: At that time, the Buddha was in the Trayastrimsa Heaven, preaching to his mother... bastard.
After putting down his pen, Chu Li suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly used ink to cover the two words.
In a hurry, he pushed the inkstone with his elbow, making a sharp and piercing sound.
When she looked up, she saw the man's obsidian eyes staring at her.
"Uncle..."
Did he see it?
Didn’t see it?
Chu Li quickly calmed down and said, "Uncle, my hand hurts. Can we do it tomorrow..."
Chu Di said slowly, "You are lazy when you are copying scriptures to pray for the Empress Dowager Zhaoren. You beat up my secret guards with endless energy. Xiaojiu, have you ever taken me seriously?"
She is innocent!
How dare she disrespect him?
This is just a beautiful misunderstanding.
"Uncle, I didn't mean it!" Chu Li's eyes turned red and she was about to cry on the spot.
If she continued writing, her hand would break.
He said submissively, "I beg you, my Lord Uncle, to be magnanimous and not to bother with me. I will never dare to do that again!"
Chu Dichi looked at her calmly:
"Don't dare what?"
"I don't dare..."
Chu Li had no choice but to go against his conscience and said:
"I know that the uncle was worried about the safety of my eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law, so he sent people to rescue them. But I messed up the situation and Qin Muyu and I took the credit. Now I really regret it. I am a useless person who can't do anything well, but always makes trouble. "
She grabbed her collar, heartbroken:
"I was also blind and accidentally injured your secret guards. All my mistakes are my fault, uncle. I will never make the same mistake again!"
Jingying snorted.
Do you think it's over just by admitting your mistake?
At least the Ninth Prince should be dragged away and beaten up as well.
Chu Dichi smiled but his eyes did not reach the bottom of his eyes: "You have done very well and have been praised by the emperor. What's wrong with that? The king is rewarding you, so he gave you the opportunity to copy the scriptures. You must cherish it."
"Uncle!"
Chu Li threw down his pen and went straight to hugging the thigh.
"Uncle, Xiaojiu is stupid and uneducated, so I really don't deserve your reward!"
Tears of fear flowed:
"I will never make a mistake again, and I will never steal your credit again! Please forgive me this time, uncle!"
The imperial physician said that her hand needed to be rested for half a month. If it was overused, it would cause hidden diseases and become disabled... She would rather be a coward and protect herself.
Chu Dichi looked down at her coldly:
"Is that so?"
"Really, really, more real than pearls!"
My mother is right. As long as she is useless enough, the Regent will not target her.
Since ancient times, no strong person would hold on to trash.
Sure enough, the Regent kicked her away, as if he thought she was too cowardly. Although she was a prince, she didn't have any masculinity at all.
But Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as she could escape from the clutches of the devil, even if it meant crawling out of Linhua Palace, she would not feel ashamed of herself.
"Uncle, you should rest early. Xiaojiu will leave now and will send you the Ksitigarbha Sutra after I finish copying it."
After saying this, Chu Li stood up with a start, fearing that he would go back on his word.
However, after sitting cross-legged for an hour and a half, his feet became numb and he suddenly could not support himself when he stood up. He fell forward and hit a hard chest.
When the cool minty scent entered her nostrils, it was like the frost and snow on the top of a mountain, exuding an air of superiority and inviolability. However, she, who had been running all day and smelled foul, forced herself to smell the scent.
Chu Li frantically used her hands and feet and struggled for more than ten times before she hurriedly got out of the man's arms.
"Uncle, my legs were numb just now..."
Little gold bars!
Because of her struggle, the small gold bar that was originally in her sleeve, the one that the emperor had just rewarded her, fell into the regent's messed up clothes!
Chu Dichi glanced at her coldly:
"How reckless."
Chu Li bit her lower lip lightly, lowered her head, accepted the scolding, but glanced at the man's collar with great concern out of the corner of her eye.
Her little gold bar!
What's the meaning of life without gold?
Without gold, where would we get the money to listen to music, drink tea, and fight crickets?
"What are you still doing here? Are you reluctant to leave?"
"No, no! I..." Chu Li felt like something was stuck in his throat, "I...just...just..."
She looked very difficult.
After a long time, he stretched out a finger with great difficulty and pointed carefully at his chest.
Chu Dichi lowered his head, "..."
"Take your little gold bar and get out!"
“Yes, yes!”
Chu Li rolled and crawled, and finally got out of Linhua Palace, breaking out in a cold sweat, but there was no sign of Concubine Wen.
In a rage, he rushed to Yutang Palace to ask the reason.
Jingying whispered:
"Master, seeing how cowardly the Ninth Prince is, I'm afraid the Emperor favors him in order to push him out and protect the Crown Prince candidate he really wants."
Chu Dichi sneered:
"He is insignificant, but you still fell into his hands, didn't you?"
Jingying choked, lowered his head, and dared not say anything more.
Yutang Palace.
"Mother!"
Here, Chu Li rushed in angrily with a choked neck.
She sent someone to pass on the message and rushed for help across 800 miles, but there was no sign of her mother.
She wanted to see what was more important than her.
"Mother, you are out..."
"Hey, Ninth Prince, please keep your voice down!" The aunt in the palace hurried forward and pulled her aside, "The Queen is sleeping with the Emperor."
