In the camp, Wen Jiaojiao was sitting on the couch having breakfast. Xiao Xuanan was sitting next to her, putting her unswollen foot on his lap and carefully inspecting it.
He pressed it gently with his hand and asked Wen Jiaojiao softly: "Does it still hurt?"
Wen Jiaojiao drank the meat porridge and shook his head, "It won't hurt if you press it like this."
Xiao Xuanan took the bruise plaster he had prepared in advance, put some on his hands, rubbed her ankles, and Wen Jiaojiao grabbed a soft pastry and stuffed it into Xiao Xuanan's mouth, "Second brother came here so early today.
, must not have had breakfast yet."
Xiao Xuanan swallowed the cake in his mouth. He had indeed come here without breakfast. He wanted to take Yue'er home early, but he was always worried about leaving her here.
Although the emperor's bodyguards were guarding the place, he was always worried about it.
"This medical officer's bone-setting techniques are quite good, quite similar to those used in bone-setting in our military."
Xiao Xuanan heard from Yuzhu yesterday that Wen Jiaojiao had twisted her foot and it was very swollen. According to Yuzhu's description, her foot would be swollen for at least a few days and would not heal so quickly.
But now it seems that her foot will fully recover in two days.
Yue'er has always been afraid of pain, and she can't stand ordinary bone-setting methods.
"Well..." Wen Jiaojiao swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Your Majesty straightened my bones. He reset my bones in the blink of an eye. It's not very painful."
Xiao Xuanan paused while massaging Wen Jiaojiao, looking a little surprised, "Your Majesty?"
Wen Jiaojiao nodded, "Your Majesty said that when he was young, he had experience with his uncle and others outside the customs, so he knew how to set bones."
What surprised Xiao Xuan'an was not that the emperor knew how to set bones, but that he would personally help Yue'er set bones. He was the most indifferent. Let alone ordinary women, he didn't even care about those in his harem.
Xiao Xuanan pondered for a while and said: "Your Majesty did accompany my father on the expedition when he was young. I also stayed with your Majesty for a few years at that time. Later, your Majesty came back to inherit the throne."
After saying that, Xiao Xuanan looked at Wen Jiaojiao seriously, trying to find some differences on her face. She looked as usual, as if she didn't care too much about this matter.
After thinking about it, Xiao Xuanan couldn't help but ask: "Yue'er, why did His Majesty keep you in his tent yesterday?"
Wen Jiaojiao put down the bowl, touched his full belly, leaned on the cushion, and said: "Yesterday, I accidentally sprained my foot. I happened to be closest to His Majesty's camp, so I treated the injury at his place. Then it was time for dinner.
After dinner, I stopped by His Majesty’s place to rest for a while.”
Wen Jiaojiao truthfully told Xiao Xuanan what happened yesterday.
She now completely regards Xiao Xuanan as her good brother. She has always wanted a brother before, and now that she has a brother who is so good to her, she naturally loves and cherishes him very much, and gradually becomes close to him.
At least I feel comfortable staying with him, and I don't need to maintain Wen Ruyue's personality too much.
Xiao Xuan'an looked at Wen Jiaojiao's bright and flowery cheeks and asked with a hint of probing: "Did His Majesty say anything to you?"
What did you say?
Wen Jiaojiao thought for a while and said, "I fell asleep after lunch yesterday. When I woke up, His Majesty asked someone to take me back in a sedan chair. He didn't say anything, but said some words to let me rest.
"
After saying that, Wen Jiaojiao looked at Xiao Xuanan and asked doubtfully: "What's wrong, second brother? Is there something wrong with me staying in His Majesty's camp?"
Xiao Xuan'an put on Wen Jiaojiao's shoes and socks, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I just want to ask you, if His Majesty has any instructions for you, if you don't understand, I can also tell Yue'er what to do."
Wen Jiaojiao didn't understand even more. What could the emperor give her? He actually said that she should eat well and not be picky about food.
She felt that the emperor was her nominal cousin-in-law, and it was normal for her to have some concern for her because of the queen.
However, it is indeed a bit unflattering to stay in his tent all the time. It would be bad if someone with intentions spread the word and said something unfavorable to the Queen. This would affect the Queen and the Xiao family.
In Wen Ruyue's memory, the emperor's harem was not peaceful. There were several times when Wen Ruyue entered the palace to meet the queen, and she was so arrogant that she attacked several of the emperor's concubines.
However, these memories of fighting against the concubines are already very blurry in Wen Ruyue's memory, and she only vaguely remembers that such a thing happened.
Wen Ruyue really relied on her status and the queen's favor to do whatever she wanted without any scruples.
"Miss, do you want to take these things back?"
Feng Xin held the red lacquered wooden box in front of Wen Jiaojiao. When Wen Jiaojiao saw the building blocks, he glanced at the boxes still on the shelf and said, "Take them all back, these things were given to you by Your Majesty."
Yes, you cannot go back."
Things rewarded by the emperor cannot be returned directly. These are gifts given by the emperor.
Xiao Xuan'an opened the box in Fengxin's hand and saw that it was filled with exquisitely crafted Luban wood and coated with fine varnish.
Xiao Xuan'an saw the maids picking up Wen Jiaojiao's toys scattered everywhere, and thought to himself that it seemed that the emperor just regarded Yue'er as a child who had not grown up. It seemed that he was overthinking.
After everything was almost packed, Xiao Xuanan hugged Wen Jiaojiao and got into the carriage.
Wen Jiaojiao was a little afraid of motion sickness, so she thought she might as well ride a horse with Xiao Xuanan.
Xiao Xuanan did not agree to her this time as she wanted. She couldn't stand the bumps at all now. It wasn't that she couldn't stand the bumps now. Her heart disease was more serious than asthma. She couldn't stand strenuous exercise in the future, so she could only survive at home.
Keep.
"Miss, this carriage is much more stable than the one we used to ride in. It's also covered with thick cushions, so it's not bumpy at all when you sit on it." Feng Xin said to her with a smile.
Wen Jiaojiao reached out and pressed the cushion under her body. It was not particularly soft, but it was very comfortable to sit on.
The carriage was very spacious, even if all four of her personal maids sat in with her, it would not feel crowded. There was also a coffee table and other items inside.
In order to fear that she would feel dizzy and nauseous while riding in the carriage, Xiao Xuanan also asked someone to prepare a refreshing spice.
Polygonatum odorifera ignites these spices, and a scent of orange and gardenia spreads in the carriage. The smell makes people feel much more energetic.
Wen Jiaojiao hugged a soft pillow and lay on the cushion, thinking that it seemed that God had fulfilled all the wishes she had made in her previous life. Except for her poor health, everything else was the perfect life she wanted.
She wants a brother, and seeing how attentive Brother Xiao is to her, she no longer has to worry about the country sending her a brother like she did before when watching TV series.
It would take at least nearly two hours to return from the ginkgo forest to Wen Mansion in the capital, according to the speed of the carriage. Wen Jiaojiao asked Yuzhu to take the box of building blocks he had brought with him and build the blocks with them on the coffee table.
After the carriage drove for half an hour, it suddenly stopped. Wen Jiaojiao heard someone calling her outside.
