76, [1 more] Abandoned Concubine in the Cold Palace (3)
The man in black and Zi Yu were both stunned when he heard Chu Xiang's words, but the movements outside were getting closer and closer, so they could not think too much.
The man in black jumped to the side of Chu Xiang and fell to the inner side of Chu Xiang. When he really got on the bed, he was still motionless. No, the bed in the cold palace was too small. If he wanted to hide it, he could only hide it closely against Chu Xiang and hide it in her quilt, which was too close.
Chu Xiang glanced at him, "Want to be arrested?"
The man in black had already regretted it, so he shouldn't have followed this woman to the cold palace. However, it was too late to leave now, so he could only get into the quilt and press against Chu Xiang tightly.
Chu Xiang smelled a faint smell of blood as he approached, frowned, "Are you injured?"
"Little wound." The man in black's voice came from the quilt, a little bored. It was probably uncomfortable to hide in the quilt, and he was so careless that he spoke like gold.
Chu Xiang thought for a while, lifted the quilt and handed him a handkerchief, "Put some blood from your wound onto the handkerchief, the more the better, hurry up."
The man in black instantly understood what she meant, pulled open the collar and pressed the veil hard on his right shoulder, and the plain white veil immediately stained a lot of blood.
Chu Xiang took the handkerchief and leaned against him. There was no distance between the two of them. Zi Yu hurriedly covered the quilt for them and tucked it tightly. Then he took his own quilt and covered it, looking like he was alone.
The sound of the door unlocking came from outside. Zi Yu's face turned pale and she looked outside helplessly, "Master..."
"Put the wet veil on my forehead, remember, I'm almost dead." Chu Xiang ordered calmly, without any nervousness.
Zi Yu calmed down, soaked the veil into the gourd and quickly folded it on Chu Xiang's forehead. Chu Xiang wiped a little water on his face, and held the bloody veil and blocked it against his mouth and coughed weakly. Zi Yu was startled and shocked to find that Chu Xiang was covered in cold sweat, with a haggard and energy-free expression, and it seemed as if he was about to die!
Zi Yu said in surprise: "Master, are you still uncomfortable? You have not recovered from your serious illness, so you can't make trouble like this!"
"Go." Chu Xiang whispered and started coughing again.
Zi Yu felt sorry for her master, but she couldn't think of any other way. Tears were rolling in her eyes. She turned around and ran out. She passed the leading guard and grabbed the eunuch who was guarding the cold palace. "Please ask for the imperial physician, I beg you, Master, she has been coughing up blood, she really can't do it anymore. I beg you to save her, I will be a cow and a horse to repay you..."
The eunuch shook her away, and she knelt on the ground and kowtowed and cried, "Please, I beg you, save my master. She has not eaten or drunk for two days and two nights. The master is so ill that he really can't live without hiring an imperial physician..."
Her actions annoyed several guards, but she subconsciously didn't think that the man in black would be here, otherwise the little palace maid shouldn't have reacted like this. However, she had to search. The leading guard waved her hand and the guards broke into the house.
The guard stood at the door and looked around the room, asking other guards to search the cabinets, under the bed, and asked coldly: "Have any suspicious people come just now?"
Zi Yu shook her head, "No one has been here for two days." She walked to the bed eagerly and looked at Chu Xiang, knelt on the ground and cried, "Old men, please, Master, she coughed for a day and coughed blood. You can save her, just let the imperial physician take a look, please."
Zi Yu had an idea and covered her mouth and coughed a few times. Everyone who saw this scene thought of something. Chu Xiang would not have had any fatal infectious disease, right? Several guards unconsciously stayed away from the bed. Chu Xiang opened his mouth extremely weakly, "Water..."
Her raised arms fell weakly to the bedside, and the handkerchief in her hand fell to the ground, and the blood was so dazzling.
Zi Yu's tears fell down and she staggered to take the gourd ladle on the table. "Water, water is coming, master." She suddenly stopped and knelt down to look at the eunuch, "Please give me some sips of water. The rain is very dirty. Master, she, she has drunk rainwater and ate weeds these two days. Maybe it's because of this that she got sick. Please give me some water."
The guard looked at the eunuch, and the eunuch whispered awkwardly: "The Empress Hui ordered it."
The guard knew that since Concubine Hui wanted Chu Xiang to die, of course he would not care about anything. He held the knife and asked coldly: "Have you searched?"
"Searched all, no."
The guard nodded, turned around and walked, "Hurry, go to the yard in front. The assassin was injured and could not run far."
Zi Yu rushed out to chase them in a hurry, and the gourd ladle fell to the ground. She shouted, "Don't leave, save my master, please, let me invite the imperial physician, you..."
The door closed tightly, and she cried and yelled for most of the day before she stopped, hurried back to the room and whispered: "Master, they are leaving."
Chu Xiang's hand, which was placed under the quilt, instantly pulled off the man in black's face towel, lifted the quilt and sat up!
The man in black was exposed to Chu Xiang and Zi Yu's eyes unexpectedly. He frowned and stood up, "What are you doing?"
"I don't know who you are, how can I get a reward for you?" Chu Xiang threw away his face towel, narrowed his eyes and looked at the man in black for a few glances, and said coldly, "You are not an assassin sent by the rebel army, you are a member of the royal family. The only thing I have never seen in the royal family is the King of Qin who has returned from his garrison recently. You are King of Qin Li Bohan."
"Qin, King of Qin?" Zi Yu looked at the man in black in surprise, wondering what to do.
The man in black looked at Chu Xiang with no expression and said in a deep voice: "How did you recognize him?"
Chu Xiang's eyes fell on his face and said naturally: "Because there is a two-part appearance between your emperor's eyebrows and eyes. And the rebel army has not yet become a climate. If they had the ability to enter and exit the palace, the emperor would have died long ago."
"You are very smart, but if you expose my identity like this, aren't you afraid that I will kill you to silence me? After all, only dead people can keep the secret." The man in black took out a dagger and played with it in his hand, looking at Chu Xiang, as if waiting for her to answer.
Zi Yu stood beside the bed and was ready to block the knife for his master at any time. He didn't dare to breathe for a moment, for fear that Li Bohan would really kill him.
Chu Xiang looked at Li Bohan leisurely and said, "Of course you can kill me, but it doesn't make any sense. Since I took the risk to save you today, I will not betray you. It is more beneficial for me to be the King of Qin. The King of Qin entered the palace in this outfit late at night, and I guess he is not loyal to the emperor."
Chu Xiang paused and said, "It is said that the King of Qin is more absurd than the emperor. He is stubborn and has great strength. He is a reckless man who is not stingy and dares to contradict the emperor. But he got a lot of rewards from the emperor's appetite. When he saw him today, there are probably no rumors that are true. The King of Qin must have something to do. If you save me, I will convince my father to help you. How about it?"
Li Bohan raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "Are you asking me to save your family?" He looked at Chu Xiang's face and smiled, "They are so beautiful, unstoppable in the face of changes, with the style of a big family, and so miserable. I guess you are the daughter of Prime Minister Chu, Concubine Xian."
Chu Xiang said: "Now I am just an abandoned concubine in the cold palace. Prince, it is not an exaggeration to exchange my life for my family and my life for your life-saving grace? Moreover, my father Chu Yiru is a capable minister. With him assisting the prince, the prince will definitely be like a tiger. I believe this is easy for the prince, so why not do it?"
What is it easy to save the prime minister and take Chu Xiang out of the palace? It's so easy. He won't be injured and almost caught today.
However, it was not impossible. Li Bohan did not refuse at all, but instead thought about the possibility of it. It was not that he had thought about recruiting Chu Yiru, but Chu Yiru was very loyal and patriotic, and was not easy to recruit. Now that Chu Xiang is a lobbyist, you can give it a try.
Chu Xiang saw his shake and said, "Prince, let Zi Yu bandage you. No one will come here. If you have searched just now, there will be no more accidents. The prince can rest with peace of mind."
Zi Yu found a dry handkerchief when she heard this. Li Bohan moved to the bed, pulled her clothes open, and half of her body was exposed. There was an arrow wound on her shoulder, but fortunately, she just passed by and did not pierce into the flesh, which was not serious.
After Zi Yu knew that this person was the King of Qin, she became careful when she moved. Especially when the King of Qin was still likely to save them, her attitude became very respectful.
Li Bohan looked at her and said to Chu Xiang: "You palace maid are loyal to you, and you just performed well in front of those people."
Zi Yu looked at Chu Xiang with fear, "Master, you are so good at acting. Master, you are so scared to death just now. Your illness is just right. Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Chu Xiang sat on the small wooden stool and shook her head, "I'm just pretending, it's okay."
Zi Yu was still worried, and when she bandaged her, she looked at Chu Xiang from time to time. Li Bohan looked at Chu Xiang in surprise and said with a smile: "It turns out that Concubine Xian is the master of acting. I really didn't expect that Prime Minister Chu would have such a daughter."
"The prince is more than the prince who has deceived the people of the world." Chu Xiang was a little hungry. Seeing that there were still a few fruits left on the table, he walked over and took one and ate it.
Li Bohan asked in confusion: "Your talent should be able to coax my nephew, how could you be thrown into the cold palace and implicate your family?"
Chu Xiang asked casually: "Why do I want to coax him? He competed with Huiyun all day long just to make the foolish emperor smile?"
Li Bohan was speechless for a moment. Why did he coax the emperor? Don’t all the concubines in the harem compete for favor to coax the emperor? Could it be that he would rather die than let go of his figure? Li Bohan thought of his encounter with Chu Xiang and his unconventional behavior. He denied this idea in his heart and guessed: "If I don’t come today, do you want to find another way to escape from the palace to save Prime Minister Chu?"
"Of course." Chu Xiang answered without hesitation. Seeing that Zi Yu had finished bandaging, she gave Zi Yu all the remaining three fruits, "Eat some, cushion your stomach, we will roast the pigeon tomorrow."
Li Bohan felt that she really didn't take him seriously and was not at all restrained in front of him. She was waiting for him to save him now, but she seemed to not care whether he was saving him or not. Could she really find other ways to escape?
Li Bohan put on his clothes and lay down. Unexpectedly, he smelled the strong musty smell on the quilt next to him as soon as he was next to him. He frowned and sat up again. There was obviously no musty smell when he was hiding in the quilt before.
His eyes fell on Chu Xiang, thinking that he was hiding against Chu Xiang, and all he could smell was the fragrance on Chu Xiang's body. He was inexplicably uncomfortable. He had never been so close to a woman. Chu Xiang was not at all uncomfortable, and he didn't hide when he bandaged her. He was really not an ordinary woman.
