When Chu Xin ran back, she only saw Xie Ruling lying on the bed, as if she had completely passed out. She could still hear her humming a few times when she went out.
Chu Xin picked up the clothes next to her and wiped off all the blood in her palms. Then she touched Xie Ruling's forehead and found that it was still very hot.
But when I thought about the promise made by His Majesty just now, saying that the imperial doctor would come over to take a look, I finally felt relieved. No matter what, as long as Xie Ruling can be well.
Just when I was about to wipe my knees with some clothes, there was a sound from outside.
"Princess Xin'er, your Majesty asked your slave to bring the imperial doctor over to take a look. Are you in there?"
Yuexiang stood outside and held her nose in disgust. The smell of blood could be smelled from such a distance!
The imperial doctor stood respectfully behind him holding the medicine box.
Upon hearing this, Chu Xin quickly opened the door and ran out, "Physician, hurry over and take a look. Leave some medicine behind and I will help apply it!"
Chu Xin clenched her fists tightly, feeling a sharp pain in her palms.
The imperial doctor glanced at the leader Yuexiang, nodded at Yuexiang, and went in with the medicine box.
We chatted for a while when we came here just now, and found out that he was being punished with a rod, so I have brought all the medicines that should be prepared.
Chu Xin was just about to follow him in and take a look, but was held back by Yuexiang.
"Princess Xin'er was very bold tonight. It's thanks to the kindness of our empress that she didn't care. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a big deal for one more person to die in this cold palace. I hope you can learn a lesson this time. You should be honest in the cold palace, don’t appear in front of the empress and be an eyesore!”
Yuexiang withdrew her hand and wiped it on her fingers with a showkerchief in disgust.
"I just went to find my father. Your Majesty is my father. Why can't I go to him? The king himself said just now that all princesses will be sent to the cold palace. How dare you disobey your father's order!" "
Chu Xin boldly raised her head and glared at Yuexiang. Forget about others, could a slave still ride on her head?
Sure enough, the trip tonight was worth it. At least it would be nice to let His Majesty know that she still has a daughter in the cold palace, and she could give her daughter everything she deserves.
Yuexiang gritted her teeth hard. It was really hard for her to refute these words, and she didn't dare to refute them casually.
"Princess Xin'er, does she know who is in charge of the harem now? After the original queen was deposed, everything in the palace was left to our empress. Many things can be done impeccably on the surface, but what's going on inside? There are thousands of ways to torment people, the princess had better be more honest!"
Yuexiang raised her eyebrows proudly. After all, most of the affairs in the harem are still managed by their empress. Although His Majesty will also intervene, he will never take care of everything.
At most, it is enough to send over all the things that the princess should have. As for what to send and when to send it, I think His Majesty will not be so clear about it.
Chu Xin lowered her head and said no more. Her palms and knees were still aching, reminding her of what had just happened.
"My slave calls you princess, but don't really think of yourself as a princess. Princess Yi is the real princess, and she is your majesty's favorite princess."
Yuexiang twisted Chu Xin's arm hard. This was what the empress had personally told her, no matter what, Chu Xin had to suffer a little!
Chu threw Yuexiang's hand away sadly, and ran in without saying anything.
It's not worth it to argue with each other now. They all say that the harem is in charge of Concubine Zheng. If the other party says a word, I'm afraid it will be very sad in the future.
After entering, he saw that the imperial doctor was taking Xie Ruling's pulse, and there were many bottles and jars of medicine on the table next to her.
"What happened?"
Chu Xin ran over and threw herself in front of the bed and touched Xie Ruling's forehead. It seemed much better than before, not so hot.
"I have brought all the medicine that needs to be applied. Just apply it a few times a day. I also kept the anti-fever medicine. After three days of drinking it, everything will be fine. It's just some skin injuries that don't bother me."
After finishing the wheat, the imperial doctor put away all the medicine boxes. He put all the medicines he should have brought aside. In short, it was better not to leave too much in this place of right and wrong.
But after everyone left, Chu Xin was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. She took the medicine she had just left and fed it into Xie Ruling's mouth. Then she poured some hot water in and swallowed it.
He opened the quilt and saw that the wound didn't seem to be bleeding. This was a good thing. He sprinkled all the medicine on the table.
Xie Ruling groaned in pain again while she was unconscious, but luckily she had already passed out and didn't need to feel the pain obviously.
After applying all the medicine, Chu Xin sat on the ground to rest. She didn't plan to go to bed tonight because she was afraid of touching the wound when she moved around while sleeping. What's more, she was so flustered at the moment that she couldn't sleep no matter what. .
I didn't bother to deal with the scrape on my arm. It just hurt like this, which made my thoughts clearer.
In short, I went on this trip. Although I suffered humiliation, I also gained greater rewards. After all, I will no longer be short of food and clothing.
Maybe her father didn't want to see his daughter always doing these "roosters crowing and dogs stealing" things, so he gave this order?
If he really had her as a daughter in his heart, why would he let her be like Chu Yi's kitten? What's more, there were so many palace people around him watching at that time, and he was so fond and doting towards Chu Yi. So obvious.
Forget it, it doesn't matter. I haven't seen that father since I was born in the cold palace. How can I have feelings for him? As long as I can make sure that I don't lack food and clothing in the future, that will be fine.
He touched his arm and found that the place where Yuexiang pinched him was still very painful. He pulled up his sleeves and saw that there were indeed deep marks. It seemed that the force was quite strong.
Then he turned to look at Xie Ruling, who was lying on the bed and had fallen asleep. He moved his head over and touched her face with some grievance.
They are obviously both noble concubines, so why is Concubine Zheng so arrogant and domineering, and why is her daughter so favored!
Chu Xin collapsed on the ground and leaned on Xie Ruling's hand. An hour passed in the blink of an eye, but she couldn't fall asleep.
When I thought about how I had just crawled around the huge courtyard like a kitten, I could still vaguely hear the mocking sounds of the palace people. The bells on Chu Yi’s bun were tinkling as she followed behind her. They are all mixed up in my heart, and it’s very confusing.
I couldn't sleep, so I stopped sleeping. I got up and opened the window, and saw the bright moon in the sky.
I still remember that when I ran to Chuxiu Palace, I raised my head and glanced at the moon in the sky. It was still as bright at this moment.
Chu Xin closed the window, leaving a small gap, then turned back to cover Xie Ruling's quilt, opened the door and walked out.
The current room is considered to be a relatively remote and quiet place in the cold palace. Concubine Li who lived next to it is dead. The room is too dirty and too small, so no one has moved in to live in it.
Chu Xin sat on the steps in the yard, looking up at the moon in the sky. She wanted to get rid of all the complicated emotions in her heart, but she couldn't get rid of them, and they were still entangled in her heart.
It's really unfair. Her mother is a majestic queen. According to the rules, she is the most noble princess, even more noble than Chu Yi. The life she lives should not be like this!
Just when I was about to bury my head and cry, I suddenly heard the sound of tiles turning on the roof. I trembled all over and quickly got up and ran over to look up at the roof.
Through the weak moonlight, it seems that nothing can be seen. I guess it was just a naughty kitten. Just wanting to go back to the previous position, I covered my face and cried loudly, trying to get rid of all the troubles and emotions in my heart. Let it out.
But he heard another noise, but it wasn't from the place he was looking at just now, but from the roof on the other side.
When I looked over this time, I seemed to vaguely see a figure sitting there. The person looked thin and small, like a young boy.
"who is it?"
Chu Xin panicked and shouted vigilantly. Without waiting for the young boy's answer, she saw that the boy jumped off the roof very quickly. He was not injured at all and his whole body was light and airy. Like a light leaf.
"I just heard the palace maid calling your name, Princess Xin'er, is your name Xin'er?"
The young boy sat on the steps where Chu Xin had been sitting with nimble hands and feet. He even shook away the long hair that fell to his chest in a cool manner, and stared at Chu Xin curiously with a pair of bright eyes.
"Who are you? Are you also your Majesty's flesh and blood?"
Chu Xin took a few steps forward and looked at him carefully. It seemed that he looked similar to her, but the children in this palace were basically His Majesty's flesh and blood, so who was the person in front of her?
"I'm not," the young boy shook his head in disgust, "I'm not from Chu. My hometown is in the north, Northern Qi!"
"I remembered, I seemed to have vaguely heard of Northern Qi Proton before, and it turned out to be you!" Chu Xin suddenly realized.
I think I heard Xie Ruling mention this matter a year or two ago, but it was none of my business, so I didn't take it seriously.
"Since you are a proton, if you don't stay where you should be, what will you do if you run out and get caught?"
Chu Xin looked around. It was very quiet here. It was already midnight and everyone was resting.
"The place I live in is Nanyuan, not far from Leng Palace. It is also very remote. When I was sitting on a tree in Nanyuan and looking at the scenery of the palace, I saw a group of people holding benches and boards looking hurriedly. , I guessed that someone might have to be beaten!"
The little boy put his hands on his legs and rested his chin on them. He looked at Chu Xin with interest. When he saw that her palms were all red, he quickly looked away.
"What are you planning? People die every day in this palace, so what big deal is a slap in the face!"
Chu Xin suddenly gritted her teeth and lowered her head. Thinking of Xie Ruling's bloody wound, it could be seen that the board was struck with great force. Was this Concubine Zheng's intention?
"I see that your knee seems to be injured. Why don't you sit down and talk properly? Don't you know that the people serving in Nanyuan seem to be afraid of saying a word to me too much, that is, the people I brought from Beiqi to serve can Talk to me!"
The little boy patted the steps next to him.
Chu Xin nodded, walked over and sat down next to the young boy.
"You already know my name, but what is your name? I still don't know it at all?"
Suddenly thinking of something, Chu Xin turned to look at the young boy beside her. Now that she was close, she could see what he looked like.
He looked as if he was eleven or twelve years old. What was particularly bright were his eyes, which seemed to be very cold.
