Chapter 38: Showing Attention for No Reason
Jiujiu recognized it immediately.
There is a spot of cinnabar on his forehead, his peach blossom eyes are sparkling and affectionate, his face is very handsome, he wears a white pearl earring on his left ear, there are three black moles on the back of his neck, all of which are lucky moles, and there is also a small red mole on the back of his left hand, which is a noble mole, implying that he will have an extraordinary future.
He is the hero of the book, Di Jiang, who is silently protected by Heaven and is also the hostage sent by the Southern Kingdom.
The emotions that Jiujiu had suppressed with great difficulty before now surged up in his heart again.
She was thinking, how could she change the ending in the book where Xi Chu was razed to the ground by the hostage's troops?
Killed?
No, no, no, no.
Proton is silently protected by the Heavenly Dao and cannot be killed at will. We have to think of other ways.
After thinking about it for several days, Jiujiu finally came up with a solution.
The reason why Dijiang hated Xichu was because he was humiliated and abused when he was a hostage in Xichu. If she could help Dijiang and make his life better in Xichu, it would definitely change Dijiang's view of Xichu, and Xichu would not be destroyed.
【How come Jiujiu is so smart? 】
[Jiujiu will go to see Dijiang later and help Dijiang live a good life. This is how the decision was made happily.]
[Jiujiu will go see her little cousin first. ]
Nan Yuanxiang is now living in a side hall of Qiu Shui Ju to recuperate. Her leg injury has broken the bones, and it will take a hundred days to heal the broken bones. She cannot get out of bed and is still recuperating in bed.
Jiujiu visits every day.
At this moment, Jiujiu came to Nan Yuanxiang's room. Nan Yuanxiang wanted to get out of bed to see the princess, but Jiujiu held her down like a little adult.
"Little cousin, if you are injured, just lie down!" Jiujiu: "We are all sisters, no need to be polite."
"Thank you, Jiujiu."
“No thanks.” Jiujiu said, “If my little cousin needs anything, just tell Jiujiu. Jiujiu will satisfy you.”
Nan Yuanxiang hesitated for a moment, then said boldly, "Can I eat a lot of delicious food?"
She's been having some good times lately.
Probably because of the weakness from the leg injury.
But she was afraid that Jiujiu would not agree, and she was even more afraid that Jiujiu would be like her sisters at home, accusing her of eating too much and being ungrateful.
Nan Yuanxiang lowered her head timidly and said in a small voice: "If you can't, then forget it."
"Why not?" Jiujiu had suffered from hunger in her previous life, so she hated to see people who wanted to eat but couldn't. She said to Aunt Gui beside her, "Aunt, go and tell the kitchen to make more delicious food for my cousin."
The thing that Qiu Shui Ju has the most is food.
Jiujiu is willing to take care of everything.
"Yes, Princess."
Nanny Gui left and the eldest prince came again.
The eldest prince did not wear a long robe today, but a short one. The hem of the black robe just reached his ankles so he would not trip again.
Behind him were two servants, carrying several gifts in their hands.
The eldest prince came to visit Jiujiu, but he didn't find Jiujiu in her bedroom, so he came here.
At this moment, after he entered Nan Yuanxiang's bedroom, he wanted to take a look at Jiujiu, but he didn't look at her directly. Instead, his eyes glanced everywhere, but not at Jiujiu. He was still being arrogant.
Jiujiu helped Nan Yuanxiang pull up the quilt, then stepped forward and asked, "Big Brother, why are you here?"
"I……"
The eldest prince wanted to come over and ask Jiujiu how she knew that he would knock out his teeth? He also wanted to ease the relationship with Jiujiu.
Because Jiujiu had no ill will towards him, and even wanted to remind him to be careful not to knock out his teeth, she was a good girl, and she was also very pretty. He didn't know Jiujiu's good points before, so he was dazzled by her performance and used Jiujiu's shortcomings to confront her.
Now he has accepted it. It’s okay for a man to dress up as a woman, as long as he has a kind heart.
But the words were on the tip of his tongue, he coughed twice and said, "I'm here to see Miss Nan Yuanxiang of the Nan family."
Nan Yuanxiang: “…”
Why are you looking at me?
Could it be that you like me?
No, she didn’t want to be like Feng Caiwei before, who was only five years old but was betrothed to the sixteen-year-old prince.
What's more, the eldest prince is eighteen years old this year and can be her father, so she doesn't want him.
Jiujiu was also complaining wildly in her heart.
[Why did the eldest brother come to see my cousin? Are he and my cousin familiar with each other? Not familiar! ]
[If he is being too attentive to me for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. Could it be that he has taken a fancy to my little cousin? ]
[But he is already eighteen years old, and he actually fell in love with his five-year-old cousin. His taste is a bit strong. It seems like an old cow wants to eat young grass. ]
【Isn’t he afraid of indigestion? 】
This was the first time that Nan Yuanxiang heard Jiujiu’s thoughts. She looked at Jiujiu strangely, but only for a while and then stopped looking.
The eldest prince was almost vomiting blood because of the complaints. He, he, he...is not here to eat young grass...
He is innocent.
He felt wronged, but he couldn't say it.
He exhaled a breath of foul air, and because he had no front teeth, he said with a leak in his mouth: "I heard that Miss Nan was seriously injured. I really sympathize with her, so I came to visit her."
【Tsk, tsk, tsk.】
[Still looking for excuses! ]
The eldest prince: “…”
He couldn't stay here any longer, he wanted to keep his innocence in the world.
"Ask the heavens and the earth, put down the medicine you brought, and let's go!"
The medicinal herbs brought by the eldest prince were all for nourishing the body. Originally, he wanted to give them to Jiujiu and Concubine Li as a gesture of goodwill. But now, he was stuck in a dilemma and could only give them to Nan Yuanxiang.
After the servant put down the medicine, the eldest prince left in a panic, but he didn't go far and just stood at the door.
After Jiujiu talked to Nan Yuanxiang for a while and went out, she saw the eldest prince guarding like a door god.
"Brother, why are you still waiting here?" Jiujiu said with a droopy face.
[Who is the eldest brother waiting for? Is it me? No, no, no, the eldest brother doesn't like me, that's definitely not the case. ]
[He must be silently watching over someone. ]
[Isn't that what's written in novels? Generally, if a man likes a woman, he won't bear to see her suffer. If she does suffer, he will be extremely distressed and will stay by her side all the time.]
[Is he watching over my little cousin? He must be.]
“Ahem…”
Jiujiu was frightened by what she imagined, but she couldn't do that!
My little cousin is still young.
Jiujiu thought for a while and said softly, "Brother, although you have lost your front teeth, you are so handsome, you will definitely be able to find a princess."
The eldest prince was very happy to be praised for his handsomeness. He seemed not to have heard Jiujiu's thoughts, nor did he know what Jiujiu meant by saying these words. He smiled and said, "Yes, I know that."
Jiujiu continued: "You have so many choices!"
The eldest prince nodded: "I know that too."
【Then what?】
[Doesn't he understand what Jiujiu wants to say? ]
The eldest prince looked confused.
In fact, he just wanted to tease Jiujiu on a whim.
Because he suddenly found the little girl's uneasy look so cute.
But Jiujiu had no idea about all this. Seeing that the eldest prince didn't understand what she said, she scratched her little head with double buns in annoyance.
[Big Brother is such a blockhead! ]
[It was not easy for Jiujiu to make him smarter. ]
Jiujiu was silent for a while, then said bluntly: "Big brother, please be kind... what did you mean by kind? It should be the foot, please be kind and let my little cousin go. She is still young, and is not a good match for you."
