Xie Mingxi glanced at Sheng Hong, who was flushed, and then slowly glanced at the slightly raised bedding: "It seems that your injury is indeed fine."
Otherwise, where would the spiritual strength come from?
Sheng Hong had never been so ashamed and heartbroken in his life. No matter how thick-skinned he was, he had no shame to look at Xie Mingxi, his eyes wandering: "I'm sleepy, I need to take a nap."
Then, he shrank into the quilt and his whole face was hidden under the quilt.
Like a newlywed daughter-in-law who has lost her virginity.
A smile flashed across Xie Mingxi's eyes, and she asked kindly: "How about I stay with you?"
The head under the quilt shook, and the quilt also shook: "No, no, no. You must be thirsty and tired after studying for a long time. Go back and rest, you don't need to accompany me."
The smile in Xie Mingxi's eyes deepened. She reached out to lift the quilt, leaned down, and kissed the handsome face as red as a monkey's butt. Then, she stood up and left gracefully.
Sheng Hong, who was left with a handsome face and a flushed face, was intoxicated and could not recover for a long time.
…
After leaving the tent, Xie Mingxi allowed her cheeks to turn slightly red.
Sheng Hong has obviously never experienced love before, so he is so young and confused, so clumsy that it is both funny and sweet.
She was a palace concubine in her previous life. In order to survive, she could only learn to use various charming methods to win the emperor's favor.
She has outstanding talent, and she can draw inferences about anything as soon as she learns it... Even if the fourth prince is cold and ruthless, even if the fourth prince has never really liked her, he is still satisfied with her intelligence and gentleness. Because of this, she is able to stay in the harem.
Get a foothold.
No one knew how much she hated or even feared things between men and women. However, she concealed it so well that the fourth prince in her previous life never noticed it.
After her rebirth, she had already made up her mind to never marry, and to live alone like Gu Shanchang. But she never thought that Sheng Hong would appear out of nowhere!
Over the past half month, she has slowly accepted the fact that the two are an unmarried couple.
Today I deliberately teased Sheng Hong. Firstly, because he has a strong nature and does not want to be at the disadvantage of being teased, so he intended to "reciprocate". Secondly, he also wanted to use this move to test himself.
Fortunately, her body does not reject being close to Sheng Hong...
"Miss," Fuyu came to report with a beaming face, "Chief Gu Shanzhang has arrived at the foot of the mountain."
Master is here!
Xie Mingxi's eyes lit up, and all the thoughts in her heart were swept away: "Why are you still using the communication? Let Master go up the mountain quickly... Forget it, I will go to meet Master in person."
Compared to the greedy and vain Xie Jun, and compared to the selfish and cruel Aunt Ding, Gu Shan has a noble character and an upright temperament, which deserves respect. His wholehearted care and love for her is even more heart-warming.
In Xie Mingxi's heart, Chief Gu Shan is the closest relative.
Seeing how happy Xie Mingxi was, Fuyu immediately smiled and said, "This slave will also go down the mountain with the young lady."
Xie Mingxi was agile and agile, and anxious to see Master Gu. She reached the foot of the mountain in less than two sticks of incense.
There is no need to elaborate on the joy and excitement in each of their hearts when master and disciple meet.
Gu Shanchang, who had been running around for half a day, had a tired look on his brows but was in good spirits. Xie Mingxi took a closer look and then felt relieved and said softly, "Master, why did you come here without even saying hello?"
Chief Gu Shan made a rare joke: "What? You're not married yet, but you think Master is an eyesore?"
However, Xie Mingxi had a dark heart and a thick face, and her cheeks secretly heated up: "How could this be possible? I feel sorry for the hard work Master has to do all the way on horseback."
Xie Mingxi has always been calm and composed, far more calm than girls of the same age. It is rare to be so embarrassed.
When Gu Shanchang saw this, he found it funny and gratified.
It seems that after spending more than half a month with Sheng Hong, Xie Mingxi has resolved her knot and has begun to open her heart to accept her fiancé. Otherwise, she would never have this kind of reaction when she mentioned getting married.
There were imperial guards all around, so it was very inconvenient to talk. Gu Shanchang smiled and said, "You lead the way. It won't be too late to talk when we get to the mountains."
Xie Mingxi composed herself and responded with a smile.
…
Half an hour later, Chief Gu Shan and Xie Mingxi sat opposite each other in the tent.
Xie Mingxi poured a cup of hot tea for Gu Shanchang: "Master, drink some tea and rest for a while before talking."
Gu Shanchang took the tea, drank a few sips, his rapid breathing calmed down a little, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Time is not forgiving, and it is true. After forty years, my physical strength is not as good as before. After riding up the mountain for half a day, I can
Feeling tired."
Time is as cruel as a knife, and no one can escape the fate of old age and weakness.
"Birth, old age, illness and death are all like this for everyone." Xie Mingxi said softly: "Master lives a strong, calm and casual life. He is better than many people in the world."
Gu Shanchang couldn't help but laugh: "When others say this, I must think that this person is clever and charming. When you say it, I deeply agree. It can be seen that flattery depends on who is doing it!"
Xie Mingxi and Gu Shanchang looked at each other and smiled.
Gu Shanchang drank all the tea in the cup and regained some strength before he opened his mouth and asked again: "How is the injury of His Highness the Seventh Prince?"
Xie Mingxi replied: "Most of the trauma has been recovered, and it will take a few days before I can move around. Then I can go down the mountain to the palace to recuperate. A rough estimate is that it will take at least three months before I can return to Beijing."
Calculating this, we have to wait until around August.
Gu Shanchang raised his eyebrows slightly and asked meaningfully: "Don't His Highness the Seventh Prince want to return to the palace early?"
Since Sheng Hong was the prince, he was destined to be involved in the struggle for the throne.
If you return to the palace earlier, you can appear in front of Emperor Jianwen earlier.
Xie Mingxi did not pretend not to understand, and responded softly: "The situation in the palace is complicated, and he needs to rest peacefully at this time. No matter what happens, wait until he recovers from his injuries."
Xie Mingxi is confident and has obviously thought about this matter for a long time.
Gu Shanchang nodded and said no more. Instead, he sighed: "I didn't expect that he was actually a man, and he hid it from the world for six years."
When he first learned about this, Gu Shanchang was shocked and a little angry at being deceived.
More than half a month has passed, and the anger has long subsided. Instead, a faint feeling of pity filled my heart.
How frightened would an eight-year-old boy be when he witnessed the tragic death of his sister who drowned on his behalf? How uncertain would it be if he put on a skirt and pretended to be a little girl?
How many embarrassing marks will six years of living as a woman leave on his heart?
Thinking of this, Gu Shanchang sighed again: "Mingxi, I know that you are arrogant and hate people who deceive you the most. However, the Seventh Prince also has various choices. Now that the matter has come to this, you can't do it anymore.
I mind."
Xie Mingxi did not hide anything in front of Chief Gu, and said frankly: "I was quite angry at first, and ignored him for many days. Even now, I am not completely relieved."
"Master, don't worry about me. I know it well and will take care of him slowly." (To be continued)
