Tang Yuyao tilted her head and turned away, letting Zhao Ting hold her hand and apply medicine to her arm.
His movements may not have been heavy, but when the injured area was touched, Tang Yuyao still shook slightly in pain.
"It hurts? You brought it on yourself, and you have to endure the pain!" Zhao Ting's tone was cold and mean, but his movements couldn't help but be gentle.
Tang Yuyao didn't make a sound. No matter how painful it was, she just gritted her teeth and endured it.
But after all, there were too many injuries. After applying the medicine, her face turned pale from pain and she was sweating all over her forehead.
When Zhao Ting saw her, he went to the clean room to wash her hands and brought her a clean handkerchief that had been wrung out of water: "Wipe it!"
Tang Yuyao has been wrapped in a white gown, and with her face, which is no worse than the white gown, she looks as if she is about to fall down at any time. Zhao Ting watched, but when she reached out to pick up the handkerchief, she suddenly stopped her hand. He sat down by the bed and gently hugged her shoulders, helping her wipe the sweat from her face and forehead.
His movements were gentle and careful, and his expression was filled with distress and seriousness. Even though Tang Yuyao's face was covered with a scarf, she could still feel it.
She couldn't help but be stunned, this... what on earth is going on?
How could Zhao Ting treat her like this?
When Zhao Ting wiped Tang Yuyao's head and face and took back the veil, he saw her looking up at him with a blank look on her face. Such a face was one that he liked so much that he wanted to see her forever. It was also a face that he hated so much that he wanted to teach her a lesson as soon as they met, and made her kneel down, cry and beg before letting her go.
But when she looked at him like this, he couldn't help but soften his voice: "What's wrong? It still hurts?"
Tang Yuyao shook his head blankly, and after a long while, he said: "You cannot resist and disobey the order. That is a crime that requires beheading."
"If I am really killed, I will keep you and your child safe." Zhao Ting held the handkerchief and said in a calm tone: "This is why I placed you here without bringing you with you." The reason for returning to the palace."
Even if someone found out about this place through his whereabouts, they would never expect that someone he cares about lives here.
how about you?
Are you going to ignore your safety?
There was no such thing in the previous life. Tang Yuyao never worried about Zhao Ting until her death. But now that things have come to this, she can't figure out what happened even if she thinks about it. Her life has indeed changed, but this is intentional on her part, and the change is not huge. But Zhao Ting, if he really disobeys the decree and refuses to marry Lu Qinghe, then the changes will be huge!
Tang Yuyao did blame Zhao Ting, but hatred, especially wishing for his death, was absolutely out of the question.
"Why? Why do you want to resist the order? Are you doing this because..." You really don't want to live anymore? Tang Yuyao didn't believe it. Who would want to die if he could live well? She guessed: "Do you have any difficulties?"
Zhao Ting looked at her steadily and nodded suddenly: "Yes!"
"What's the reason?" Tang Yuyao asked.
Zhao Tingdao: "Didn't you leave because I wanted to marry Lu Qinghe? In order for you not to run away a second time, I decided not to marry her."
This doesn't sound like the truth.
Tang Yuyao was still worried. When she heard this, she couldn't help but stabbed: "Are you risking your life for the sake of my slave?"
If she was in danger, he would indeed risk his life to save her.
This thought floated through his mind, and when he saw Tang Yuyao's disbelief, Zhao Ting's heart froze, and he stood up and left.
He bumped into Tang Yuyao when he came out of the clean room because there was no water in the clean room. Now he asked someone to bring water and went to wash up in the inner room. Tang Yuyao got out of bed and walked quietly to the door of the clean room. Listening to the sound of water rushing inside, her face slowly became serious. She knew that Zhao Ting's reason just now was false, but Zhao Ting's statement that he would not marry Lu Qinghe was most likely true.
Why did he do this?
She knew what the consequences would be, and it was impossible for him not to know.
So something did happen to him?
Also, he was affectionate towards her... Tang Yuyao didn't know if it was because of her own passion, but she really felt that Zhao Ting seemed to be affectionate towards her. Even though there was a living life between them, she still couldn't help but feel that he really cared about her. Reason and emotion are closely intertwined. She constantly reminds herself of the fact that he killed her in her previous life, but deep down in her heart, she always thinks of before he killed her...
Before he killed her, before he was granted marriage, she was sure that she did not have unrequited love.
She likes him, and he treats her so differently. Even if he doesn't like her as much, he does have her in his heart.
It's just that she never took the initiative to do anything to be his concubine, so he didn't take any action.
is that so?
Tang Yuyao had a headache thinking about it and shook her head hard. She stopped thinking about it and walked to the door lightly.
As soon as the door opened, Chen Anzheng ran over wiping the sweat from his forehead. He was stunned when he saw Tang Yuyao, and then stopped, his face full of disgust. He knew that Zhao Ting was in the room, so he deliberately said loudly: "Master Tang, where are you going this late at night?"
Tang Yuyao stood quietly without replying. When he came to him, she asked in a low voice: "Master, has anything happened recently?"
Chen An also lowered his voice, but said in a strange tone: "Something happened. You know it. Wasn't it because of your escape?"
It seems that I can't find out anything from Chen An.
Regardless of Chen An's expression, Tang Yuyao took a step back and closed the door directly.
Chen An was unprepared, and just as he was tilting his head to see what Zhao Ting was doing, the door slammed shut and hit his nose, which made his face look grim in pain.
Tang Yuyao in the room turned around and saw Zhao Ting coming out wearing only a coat. He seemed to be in a hurry. He didn't even have time to wipe off the water on his body. He rushed to the door wet and grabbed Tang Yuyao. Wrist: "Where are you going?"
He was a bit strong, and Tang Yuyao's wrist hurt from being pulled, but looking at his nervous expression, her heart moved.
Is he afraid that she will run away again?
With this thought in her mind, she quickly replied: "I just want to say a few words to Chen An."
Zhao Ting also heard something in the clean room, and what he heard was Chen An's reply, but based on this reply he also guessed what Tang Yuyao was asking. As soon as he relaxed, his tone became less stiff: "You want to know What, just ask me directly."
But you clearly don’t want to say it.
Tang Yuyao nodded, but didn't ask anything.
She had just been captured, what could she ask about her daily life? It's too fake.
She went straight back to the bed, silently climbed onto the bed and huddled inside.
Zhao Ting couldn't be disappointed with Tang Yuyao's attitude. He had already lost hope when she escaped, so how could he be disappointed?
After turning off the light, he looked at her figure on the bed for a while in the darkness with the faint light from the lamp left in the corner. Zhao Ting stepped onto the bed, pulled her over and trapped her tightly in his arms, not letting go all night long.
Tang Yuyao didn't know when she fell asleep, but miraculously she had a good sleep. Even when she wasn't asleep, she was in a mess. Sometimes she thought that his attitude towards her was too strange, and sometimes she thought about what he would do if he disobeyed the order. Will he really be killed? For a moment, I was worried about my life safety, and for a moment I thought about whether Xiao Yunduo could do it alone at night. But in the end, he fell asleep.
When he woke up early the next morning, Zhao Ting had disappeared.
After Qian and Lanxiang came over, she took the opportunity to ask them: "Did anything happen to the master while I was away?"
Qian and Lanxiang thought for a while and both shook their heads.
"No?" Tang Yuyao frowned, confused. Since nothing happened, what happened to Zhao Ting?
Qian said: "Although nothing happened, the master has been having a hard time in the past half month. Because you left suddenly before, the master was very anxious. He sent many people out in and out of the city to look for him, but nothing happened. We haven't found you yet. When you came back this time, the slaves thought..."
The next words were not finished, but Tang Yuyao already understood. Did she think that Zhao Ting would punish her severely?
In fact, she was also surprised. Was it really because of the child in her belly?
It seems like more than just.
Lan Xiang also said: "Sister Yuyao, since you left, I have stayed in Taoyuan to serve you. I can't count how many times I have seen the master sitting alone in the main hall. Sister Yuyao, Sister-in-law Qian and I Same thing, I don’t ask you why you are leaving, but I want to tell you that the master really cares about you. Now that you are back and you already have a little master in your belly, just follow the master and don’t annoy the master again.”
Tang Yuyao murmured: "Does he really care about me?"
"Of course! Of course I care about you!" Qian and Lanxiang said at the same time.
"Oh." Tang Yuyao responded, her face dazed, and she didn't know if she took the words into her heart.

In Prince Cheng's Mansion, Zhao Jue was woken up early in the morning. He had been out for half the night yesterday. He wanted to sleep a little longer today because of his injury, but he was woken up at three o'clock in the morning. He stood up and without washing, he called his personal father-in-law to come in.
"What's going on? There's so much noise early in the morning!" He said in a bad tone.
The father-in-law said with an uneasy look on his face: "It's your four major restaurants in Beijing. I don't know why, but today the supply of fresh meat and vegetables has been cut off at the same time. Now we have to do business at noon. If only one family and two families, that's all." You can find a way to get it temporarily elsewhere. But now the four major restaurants are short of it, so I am worried that something is wrong." So I risked being scolded and came to report.
Just as Zhao Jue's face darkened, a young eunuch poked his head outside again. He felt unhappy and said angrily: "Bring the person in!"
