"Go and fetch me my special wound medicine immediately! There can be no delay!"
"Yes, Your Majesty! I'll do it right away!"
Xuan Ling carefully held Sheng Xiyan and hurried into the inner hall.
Gently laid her on the bed.
Sheng Xiyan's face was pale, her brows were furrowed, and she was moaning softly, which made Xuan Ling feel distressed.
"Yanyan, it must be very painful, right? Don't be afraid. Once the golden wound medicine arrives, I will apply it on you and you will be healed soon."
Sheng Xiyan bit her lip and reluctantly responded.
I couldn't help but turn my head and secretly peek at Xuan Ling's expression.
For some reason, I always feel that his face is full of kindness, rather than love between a man and a woman.
The gauze dress on Sheng Xiyan's lower back was soaked with blood, which was shocking.
Xuan Ling gently stretched out his hand and slowly pulled up the blood-stained gauze dress.
When he saw that the skin on the slender, white waist was torn into several pieces, he couldn't help but take a breath, and the anger in his heart rose instantly.
"This damned evil slave is so cruel!"
Xuan Ling gently lifted the gauze dress, and Sheng Xiyan felt a sharp pain. She cried out involuntarily and clutched the mattress tightly.
Every slight movement affected the wound, and the excruciating pain was simply unbearable.
"Yan Yan, bear with it. I must remove the clothes first, otherwise they will stick to the wound and it will hurt more when I tear them apart."
Xuan Ling comforted her softly while continuing with his actions.
“.......”
Sheng Xiyan's facial features were distorted with pain. She didn't know that Xuan Ling had already untied her collar belt behind her. She pressed her slender fingers on her waist and gently pulled down her gauze skirt with her right hand.
His deep eyes couldn't help but feel his ears burning at the sight before him.
Her snow-white skin was covered with long red marks, as if painted on the whitest cotton paper in the world, with the crimson staining the snow-white.
Hua Xia wanted to come in, but if she saw something she shouldn't see in the hall, no matter how worried she was, she could only quickly leave and close the door gently.
Although the pain in the back was still burning, it was not as intense as when the gauze was removed just now. Sheng Xiyan looked back and saw that Xuan Ling's Adam's apple seemed to be sliding, and suddenly she felt a chill.
When I realized it, my face started to burn.
"Well...my good friend...please go back and let Hua Xia apply the medicine to me."
Xuan Ling said nothing, but looked at her with deep eyes. His ink-black pupils were like an abyss, which made her fall into at first sight and forget where she was in an instant.
Their eyes met, their gazes intertwined, and their warm fingertips were still pressing on the waist.
I seem to have a thousand words to say, but I am speechless.
A light knock on the palace door broke the ambiguous atmosphere.
Hua Xia came in with a porcelain jar with a golden dragon pattern.
Sheng Xiyan hesitated, "Your Majesty, let Hua Xia apply the medicine, you can go back."
Xuan Ling took the medicine, and Hua Xia glanced at Sheng Xiyan, "Your Majesty, please quickly capture the Emperor."
Xuan Ling opened the porcelain jar and ordered, "Sheng Xiyan, close your eyes."
“.......”
Shameful, my round buttocks were seen naked by my best friend.
"Your Majesty, since we are good teachers and friends, and men and women should not touch each other, you shouldn't..."
"Shut up."
Along with the coolness of the healing medicine, there was also a gentle breeze. The wind was not harsh, but like the wind in the south of the Yangtze River, soft and gentle.
Under the dual effect, the pain is greatly relieved.
The emperor bent down and blew gently on the broken skin, applying the medicine with a golden spoon very carefully, while looking back at her expression with her eyes closed.
No area was neglected and all were coated with medicine.
Xuan Ling seemed to have accomplished something extremely sacred. When he looked over again, he saw a string of crystal beads falling from under the beautiful woman's eyelashes.
She must feel very wronged because she was beaten.
Xuan Ling felt guilty and distressed, so he controlled his emotions.
The two people haven't seen each other for more than half a month, and they are both feeling emotional at the moment.
Sheng Xiyan leaned on her elbows, wishing he could come over to wipe her tears and kiss her, even if it was just on the forehead.
I can’t tell when I started craving these things.
After a long time, Xuan Ling spoke with difficulty.
“I’ve been thinking a lot these days.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t sleep with the emperor or give birth to children.
In the future, I will choose an outstanding prince for you to raise, so that you will not feel insecure."
In the end, he became the person he hated.
Once upon a time, he hated the late emperor for giving him to the empress dowager to raise, separating him from his mother, causing him to live in anxiety and darkness throughout his childhood and even adolescence.
Now I have the same idea, how ridiculous.
Just so that she can live peacefully in the palace and he can always see her.
Sheng Xiyan felt sad when he heard these words. He had even considered this and really didn't plan to be a lovebirds with her anymore.
At that time, he used poetry to hint that he wanted to be with her as a pair, but she responded with false sincerity.
But now it is completely misplaced.
One has left before the other reaches the finish line.
"Yanyan, take good care of your injuries. I'm leaving first."
As Xuan Ling stood up, Sheng Xiyan's eyes filled with tears and she sobbed, "My good friend, can you hug me again?"
He slowly walked to the head of the bed, bent down, placed her head on his chest, and gently stroked the back of her neck, just like before.
The scent of agarwood mixed with ambergris is the smell she is craving now.
The words were on the tip of Sheng Xiyan's tongue several times, but she couldn't say them.
I was afraid that he would refuse and say, "I've let it go. We're more suitable to be friends."
After the imperial carriage left, Hua Xia ran in and saw Sheng Xiyan sobbing with her head buried in her arms.
"My Lady, you didn't tell me? What a great opportunity."
