Prisoner of the Eastern Palace

The prince sent the imperial physician away, and then handed over the prescription to the dining room to cook the medicine.

Mu Ke hugged Luo Ange and sat on the edge of the bed, letting him lie down with his lap on his pillow.

Because the man was afraid of seeing the light, the windows on both sides were drawn with curtains, and the room was very dark, only a ray of morning light fell in through the cracks, and bright dust floated in the air.

The maids were all guarding outside, and there was no one in the room, so Luo Ange obviously felt much more at ease. He lay quietly on Mu Ke's lap, stretched out his inflexible hands, and fiddled with the jade pendant on Mu Ke's waist tassel.

Maybe he knew that Mu Ke was kind to him, so he was stupid and insane, subconsciously willing to rely on Mu Ke.

This is almost the only thing that comforts Mu Ke, at least he is still willing to stay by his side, at least he still wants to rely on and like himself, even with a crippled body.

Mu Ke brushed his long hair around his ear, looked down at him and smiled wryly.

"Are you lying to me again? Huh? You were like this last time, lying in front of me without a sound. I really thought you were dead. Do you want to use this method to leave me again and go back to Yunle ? You don't have to pretend, as long as you want, I'll take you back in person." Luo Ange didn't respond to his words, he opened his mouth to put the tassel of the jade pendant in his mouth, and chewed it ignorantly.

Mu Ke didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he quickly grabbed Luo Ange's chin, and took the tassel out of his mouth.

"What are you eating this for? Is it delicious? What a fool."

Luo Ange's mouth was empty, and he immediately became angry, and raised his hand to hit Mu Ke, but was gently held by him.

"What do you want? Huh?" Mu Ke said softly, "Little fool, don't you even know how to speak?"

Luo Ange whimpered, pulled the corner of Mu Ke's clothes and stuffed it into his mouth.

Mu Ke couldn't help but smiled, grabbed his waist and hugged him up, "Are you hungry? Are you hungry?"

The corners of Luo Ange's eyes were red, he put his fingers in his mouth, and yelled vaguely: "...Hungry, I'm hungry..."

Mu Ke suddenly opened his eyes wide, surprised and delighted, "You can still talk? Xiaoxiao, tell me, what do you want to eat?"

"Hungry..." Luo Ange couldn't get what he wanted for a long time, and couldn't help crying because of grievances, sobbing again and again, and now he couldn't even utter the word hungry.

Mu Ke was helpless, he guessed that he would not be able to hear Luo Ange say the second word today, so he had to ask the maid outside to come in and deliver the breakfast.

According to the imperial physician's advice, Luo Ange hadn't eaten properly for three whole days, and had to eat lighter in recent days.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince always followed the doctor's orders carefully, so all the dishes brought in were some light side dishes, as well as two bowls of ginkgo osmanthus porridge.

If it was the usual Luo Ange, he would lose his temper when he saw such a bland meal at this time, but now he doesn't even know what breakfast is, he is a little fool who can't even cry out that he is hungry.

Taking advantage of the danger, Mu Ke hugged Luo Ange in his arms, and fed him the nutritious bitter gourd that Luo Ange didn't usually like to eat. Luo Ange opened his mouth obediently, chewed it twice but then Frowning, all spit out.

He patted Mu Ke's hand holding the chopsticks angrily, but the strength was so small that it could hardly shake Mu Ke's arm.

He thought hard, and wanted to complain that the dish was unpalatable, but his brain was broken, and all kinds of vague words were messed up in his mind, and he couldn't understand the meaning.

In the end, Luo Ange didn't know what to think, and said angrily: "Ugly...ugly..."

Mu Ke was dumbfounded.

"What's ugly? Bitter melon is ugly?"

Luo Ange bit his lip and did not speak, Mu Ke asked him several times before he understood.In Luo Ange's mind, ugliness is a derogatory term, which can be used for people as well as bitter melon.

When he said that bitter melon is ugly, he may simply be expressing that it is unpalatable and he doesn't like it.Because Luo Ange couldn't think of the word unpalatable for a while, so he could only find a similar word to express it with difficulty.

At this moment, Mu Ke thought, he was really stupid, even worse than a three-year-old child.

But it doesn't matter, he can teach and treat him slowly, even if this is the only way to do it for the rest of his life, Mu Ke is willing to guard him like this.

"Xiaoxiao, you might be the first fool queen in the future, what will the historians write about you?"

Luo Ange seemed to react to Xiaoxiao's name, and blinked his eyes, but soon he remembered his hunger, and cried miserably, "Hungry..."

"Okay, baby, let's eat." Mu Ke put the bitter gourd into Luo Ange's mouth again, but now he remembered that this dish was not delicious, so he closed his mouth tightly and didn't want to eat it.

Mu Ke slowly induced him, "You think it's unpalatable, right? If you say it's unpalatable, I'll give you other dishes."

"..." Luo Ange looked at him blankly, and after working hard for a long time, he followed up like a parrot, "It's...unpalatable..."

Mu Ke smiled, and fed Luo Ange's favorite mushroom gnocchi.

Luo Ange was happy now, and with Mu Ke's spoon, he ate several small dumplings the size of grapes in a row.

He is really like a child, he doesn't want to eat anymore if he is not hungry after two bites.Mu Ke wanted to feed him some porridge, but Luo Ange was so angry that he burst into tears, his face buried in his arms without moving.

Mu Ke had no choice but to put down the bowl.

However, with his way of eating, he was hungry again within half an hour, so Mu Ke had no choice but to ask someone to prepare another meal.Later, the prince simply ordered that the stove in the dining room need not be filled, and whenever Shaoqing was hungry, he would cook immediately.

A large amount of Wushi powder almost destroyed Luo Ange's body. A few days ago, his hands were shaking so much that he could hardly hold chopsticks.

But being raised by the prince, who is so charming in a golden house, and with the help of medicinal food, Luo Ange's body improved a lot in a few days, he could walk around with difficulty, and his hands and feet became much more stable.Although I still can't lift heavy objects, I can eat by myself with chopsticks.

It's just that he is still very afraid of people. When Mu Ke is not around, Luo Ange can hardly see people. Even if someone makes a little noise outside the door, he will be terrified, sobbing and crawling into the corner of the bed.

He was even afraid of A Yu and Ji Xiang, and he couldn't recognize them at all.

But it will be better when Mu Ke is around, probably because Luo Ange feels that he has a backer, and he feels a lot more at ease. Sometimes the little maid cleans the house, but he just quietly leans in Mu Ke's arms, holding three points. Watch them warily.

From time to time, Mu Ke would call Ayu or Shunzi over to talk with Luo Ange, or play with the children's toys.

In the beginning, Luo Ange was very wary of them. When Ah Yu or Shunzi were in the room, Luo Ange would definitely grab Mu Ke's clothes and shrink into Mu Ke's arms. Take a step out of the thunder pool, let alone go down to play with A Yu and the others.

Ah Yu was young at first, seeing her former master become like this, she felt extremely sad, once in front of the prince and Luo Ange, she couldn't help crying.

The young man cried miserably, standing helplessly in the middle of the huge room, raised his arms to wipe away his tears, choked up continuously, and the tears fell down like broken beads.

Luo Ange was originally in Mu Ke's arms, but when he heard his cry, he became curious again, and looked back at him tentatively.

Mu Ke watched his reaction carefully, and coaxed softly: "He is A Yu, he is from Yunle, do you remember him?"

Luo Ange tilted his head blankly, looking curiously at the boy in front of him.

After a while, he broke away from Mu Ke's embrace, and staggered over.Luo Ange's body was still not fully recovered, and he couldn't walk very steadily. Mu Ke was worried that he would fall, so he followed closely and stretched out his hands to protect him.

Luo Ange staggered up to A Yu, looked at him hesitantly for a while, then slowly raised his hand, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and made a vague comforting voice in his throat: "Don't, don't cry... don't cry..."

These were almost the few words he could say after swallowing the medicine.

He may be crazy and stupid, but even if he is unconscious, he still remembers who treats him well, who loves him, and who he should protect and take care of.

Mu Ke's heart was full of mixed emotions, A Yu gently held Luo Ange's hand, sobbing in his throat, "Young master, young master..."

For a moment he couldn't say a word.

Seeing that he was still crying, Luo Ange felt anxious for a while. He didn't understand where this emotion came from, but it was uncomfortable, stuffy, congested, and hard to relieve.

Mu Ke quickly hugged him, motioned for A Yu to go down first, A Yu wiped his tears, saluted and retreated.

Then Mu Ke lowered his head and kissed the corner of Luo Ange's lips, and comforted softly: "It's okay, Xiaoxiao, don't be afraid."

Luo Ange pressed his heart tightly, as if feeling very uncomfortable there.He's been a fool for so many days, this is the first time he feels emotions other than fear and anger, he's feeling sorry for another person, feeling sad, which is a good sign, because he is gradually returning to what a normal person should be emotion.

"You feel sad, right?" Mu Ke took the opportunity to induce him to speak, "Say, are you sad?"

It is easier for Luo Ange to learn to speak than ordinary children. There are primitive accumulations of words and sentences in his mind, but they are all confused, so as soon as Mu Ke induced him, Luo Ange immediately remembered, and said intermittently: "Sad... I'm sad..."

Seeing the results, Mu Ke was very happy, kissed him lightly on the face as if rewarding him, and then asked: "You still remember him, right? Do you remember A Yu?"

"Ah... fish..."

"Yes, it's his name." Mu Ke hugged him and sat back on the couch, and continued to ask: "Who do you remember? Think about it, which name do you remember?"

Luo Ange bit his finger and tried hard to think. He thought for a long time, and suddenly his eyes lit up a little, and he read two words very clearly: "Mu Ke."

Then he buried his face in Mu Ke's arms.

Mu Ke was taken aback for a moment, feeling his hands were about to freeze.For so many days, I have never deliberately taught him this name, and no one around dared to call him by his name, but Luo Ange called him by his name very clearly, as if he had never forgotten generally.

Mu Ke tremblingly said: "Xiaoxiao, call me again, call me by my name."

Luo Ange refused to cry anymore, and opened his mouth to bite Mu Ke's clothes, "Hungry... hungry..."

Mu Ke didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had to pass on food to fill up this little fool who doesn't know much about the world and can always irritate people.
