Bei Mingchen reached out his hand to touch Foxi's fair and delicate face, and said softly: "Xi'er, don't think about running away anymore, stay, stay by my side, I will definitely protect you."
Foxi looked at the face so close, her heart pounding, as if it was going to jump out of her chest, something in her heart was touched.
"Yeah." Foxi nodded, and hummed lightly, as if to agree with Bei Mingchen.
Bei Mingchen showed a satisfied expression, hugged Foxi, and buried his head in Foxi's neck.
"Xi'er..."
"Yeah."
...
The sky gradually darkened. Bei Mingchen picked up the sleeping Foxi and walked into the flower room. He walked through the gorgeous flowers and pushed open a barely noticeable door. What came into view was an extremely luxurious hot spring pool. There were a lot of medicinal herbs in the pool, and the temperature was just right.
Bei Mingchen walked to the edge of the pool, bent down and put Foxi in. As soon as Foxi's body fell into the pool, a strong medicinal fragrance wafted out, floating around. In the air, the whole room was filled with fragrance.
Bei Mingchen stood aside, looking at Foxi who looked comfortable in the pool.
The girl was leaning on the edge of the pool at the moment, and she looked particularly lazy. Her skin as white as snow was shining crystal clear under the weak candlelight, just like a piece of fine mutton-fat jade.
After a long time,
Foxi felt unwell and opened her eyes. After seeing clearly, she was very angry: "What are you going to do?"
Bei Mingchen stroked Foxi's back and said in a low voice: "I swear..."
"Get out of here."
"Get out together if you want to. "
You..."
Bei Mingchen leaned down and said something very irritating in Foxi's ear. Foxi took a deep breath to ease her anger, glared at him, and gritted her teeth: "How shameless."
"You can still scold people, it seems you are not bad." "
Who said..."
Congxin Congxuan noticed something was wrong in the afternoon and ran away long ago. In the whole Chenxi Courtyard, there were only two miserable guards guarding the gate.
Foxi didn't know how long she slept before she became conscious first, slowly opened her eyes, and saw clearly that she was lying on the bed at the moment, and there was no figure of the dog man beside her.
For a long time, no one came in.
Foxi moved slightly and took a breath of cool air.
"Hiss-"
"Creaky" the door was opened.
Foxi was startled and quickly reached out to cover herself with the quilt, pretending to be still asleep.
Congxin and Congxuan walked to the bedside and saw that the princess was still asleep. They looked at each other in confusion and whispered, "Did I hear it wrong?"
Foxi heard that it was Congxuan's voice and immediately opened her eyes.
"Princess, you're awake." "Tsk
..." Foxi motioned for the two to speak in a lower voice, and quickly glanced in the direction of the door. Seeing that no one came in, she breathed a sigh of relief. Congxin and Congxuan smiled after looking at each other, and went forward to help Foxi sit up. "Hiss...slow down..." Foxi chattered while sitting up.
"Princess, be careful."
Foxi leaned on the edge of the bed, looked up at the two of them, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face.
"Hurry up, help me get a set of clothes. "
She almost forgot what it felt like to get dressed.
Cong Xuan saw through Foxi's little thoughts and said comfortingly: "Princess, don't worry, the prince went to the palace early in the morning."
A light flashed in Foxi's eyes and she confirmed again: "Really?"
Cong Xuan smiled and nodded: "It's true. The emperor is going on a secret tour and asked the prince to accompany him. He will be gone for about two days, and the prince will not return until the next day or the day after tomorrow." She glanced
at Foxi and said shyly: "Princess, you can have a good rest these two days. "
Foxi burst into tears of gratitude. At this moment, she was sincerely grateful and wanted to say from the bottom of her heart: Long live the emperor.
Congxuan found a set of light clothes and carefully put them on for Foxi.
Foxi felt sore all over. She frowned while putting on the clothes and kept chattering: "Hiss... Slow down, slow down..."
Congxuan helped Foxi stand up. Foxi stepped on the ground and cried with excitement and happiness.
She almost forgot this feeling. It turned out that she could It's so good to walk.
Supported by Congxin and Congxuan, she walked towards the door step by step. When she reached the door, she grabbed the door frame with her hands, slowly lifted her feet and walked out. She
took a deep breath and looked up at the sun in the sky. Under the sunshine, her face was full of happiness.
Six days, a full six days, she finally walked out of this room and finally saw the sun again.
Looking at Foxi's satisfied face, Congxin was also happy in her heart: "Congratulations, Princess, you finally walked out of this room!"
Foxi was moved. At this moment, she really should set off two strings of firecrackers to celebrate this exciting moment.
"Gurgle gurgle..."
Foxi's stomach rumbled.
Congxin smiled and said, "Princess, will you serve the meal?"
"Yes. "
After a while, the guards stood at the door of Chenxi Courtyard with meals.
Foxi wondered, "Why don't they come in?"
Congxin and Congxuan helped Foxi back to the room and asked her to sit at the table.
"Replying to Princess, the prince has ordered that no man is allowed to enter Chenxi Courtyard except him."
Foxi was puzzled, "Why?"
Congxin shook her head, "I don't know, the prince gave the order."
Congxin took two steps outside, intending to serve the meals, then thought of something and turned around and said, "Princess, the prince has returned all the pets you raised to the old courtyard."
Foxi was puzzled again, "Why?"
Congxin shook her head, "I don't know, the prince gave the order." "
Walking to the door, looking at the renovated courtyard, he turned to Foxi and said, "Princess, the prince renovated the courtyard, added a lot of hanging chairs and soft couches, and moved flowers around it. He also told me to clean it every day."
Foxi was puzzled again: "Why?"
Congxin shook her head: "I don't know, the prince ordered this."
Foxi waved her hand thoughtfully, what's wrong with the original courtyard, the prodigal son, he had to spend money to renovate it.
The dishes were placed on the table one by one, and Foxi was dumbfounded.
Congxin introduced: "Princess, this is steamed lamb, this is roast duck, this is roast chicken, roast goose, roast pork, pine flower tripe, braised pork..." When
Foxi saw these, she didn't think of anything else, but Bei Mingchen was going to fatten her up before slaughtering her.
The chopsticks in her hand fell to the ground.
Congxin quickly took out a new pair and handed them over.
Foxi took the chopsticks with trembling hands, looked at the table full of meat, and shuddered all over.
This meal was really delicious, and Foxi was in tears.
Congxin and Congxuan looked at each other, confused: "Princess...what's wrong with you?"
Foxi shook her head with chopsticks in her hand: "You don't understand."
After eating, Foxi asked the two to leave, and she walked out by herself, holding the wall, looking at the newly repaired yard, and then looking at so many places to rest, she pursed her lips and shed tears of regret.
Isn't it good to be a leisure concubine? Why do you have to find a woman for Bei Mingchen? It's simply a waste of money and trouble, and it's a thankless job.
She walked over and sat on the hanging chair, swayed for a while, and quickly stood up. Looking at the swaying hanging chair, the scenes emerged in her mind. She quickly shook her head and took two steps back. She would never be able to look directly at this hanging chair in the future.
...
For the whole day, Foxi stood in the yard, lazily basking in the sun. At this moment, she closed her eyes and took a nap. The breeze blew her hair.
Bei Mingchen walked in quietly and saw Foxi, who was nestling in the hanging chair and taking a nap with her eyes closed. He walked over and looked at her steadily, not missing any of her changes, his eyes full of love and appreciation. He walked into
the inner room, picked up the thin blanket and walked out to cover Foxi gently.
It was getting darker, and Foxi put her hand on the back of her neck.
[My neck hurts so much.]
[Do you have a stiff neck?]
Feeling a warmth on her neck, she opened her eyes in panic, looking at Bei Mingchen who was so close to her, rubbed her eyes, and shook her head in confusion.
[Am I too tired? Am I mistaken?]
Bei Mingchen rubbed Foxi's neck and chuckled.
Foxi reached out and patted Bei Mingchen's face, and then pinched that handsome face hard.
Bei Mingchen wanted to get angry, but facing Foxi's soft and harmless look, he helplessly reached out and pulled down the restless jade hand.
"Bei Mingchen?"
"Yeah."
"You, why are you back?"
"I missed you."
Foxi laughed and cried: "Haha...ha..."
[I really want to wave my hand and say, it's not necessary. 】
"Prince, you should go back to your work."
Bei Mingchen's face darkened. For this little girl, he escorted the emperor to the place, arranged everything, and rushed back at full speed. But this girl was really unromantic and disappointed him. He was in a bad
mood, very bad.
"Don't you want me to be with you?"
He sent people to ask those married ladies and princesses, and they all said that what they wanted most was for their husbands to be with them. Now looking at Foxi's appearance...
[This question makes the person who asks it feel numb. ]
"Prince is a man who wants to do great things, and he shouldn't waste his time on me."
