Ruthless debt

Zuo Qi was locked in the courtyard with no shelter, his ankle was injured, and it had been snowing for the past few days. Mu Xuanqing had issued an order that anyone who dared to remove the iron lock without authorization would be killed without mercy.Today, he is still afraid of death, but who will take care of Zuo Qi after he dies, is he allowed to freeze to death and starve to death in the courtyard?

He ordered Yingniang and Nan'er to take turns to take care of Zuo Qi, so that he would not be injured by the wind and snow, and he himself cut down the trees in the yard day and night, and he never let go of his favorite Zhaodianhong. In order to build a house in the courtyard that can shelter Zuo Qi from wind and rain.He didn't have time to look back on what had happened, and he didn't have the energy to grieve. He didn't know what he would face in the future, but the only thing he could do right now was to protect his left and right. He had been busy all night for three days , both hands are bloody.

The small house was built with these logs of different thicknesses, but the house still couldn't block the attack of wind and snow. Snowflakes fell in through the gaps, and the cold wind also poured in. It looks the same inside and out.Prince Che dismantled all the beds, tables and chairs, and made a tight perimeter around the house, so that no wind and snow could penetrate.

In this way, five days have passed. During these five days, he fainted several times, but each time he only slept for a short while. After waking up, he fumbled for the hammer again. No one could stop him, and no one tried to persuade him.

A bed was placed in the wooden house, and a brazier was set up. After a while, the narrow room became warm.Prince Che carried the handicapped Zuo Qi into the house, and carefully wrapped the shackles with cloth strips, so that the cold iron would not hurt him any more.The place where the scald was scalded before was originally scabbed, but because Zuo Qi was too busy to take care of the injury on his foot when he fainted, the scabbed place was repeatedly rubbed away, which is why he has this look now. tragedy.

Prince Che pushed the shackles to his ankles, and said softly, "Lie down for the next few days, don't move around anymore." He placed Zuo Qi on the bed, and then tucked in the quilt for him. Then he lay down beside him in his clothes.

He was so tired that once he closed his eyes he couldn't open them again.In a daze, he surrounded a warm body, the familiar breath, just the right amount of warmth, driving away all the fatigue and pain in his limbs and bones.And the nightmare that lasted for several years finally disappeared at this moment.

As long as this person is still by his side, he has nothing to ask for.

Because she was imprisoned by shackles, other people had to take care of her basic necessities of life, food, housing and transportation. Nan'er was just a medical girl and had never served anyone in the palace. Naturally, she couldn't make proper arrangements for every detail.Since coming to Shuo Kingdom, everyone has been taken care of by Yingniang and Jin'er, but since that bloody snowy night, Yingniang contracted typhoid fever and couldn't afford it. All the precious herbs have been exhausted, but there is no improvement.Nan'er had no choice but to hope that Yingniang would get better on her own, but after all, there were only four people left in the group of 63 people.

Of course, Prince Che could only take over the care of Zuo Qi, from eating and drinking to taking a shower, everything was done by him himself.At first Zuo Qi was somewhat resistant, although the two of them were already close enough to be indistinguishable from each other, but it would hurt self-esteem to let other people manipulate all the big and small matters.For example, if you take off your clothes while taking a bath, but your feet can't get into the bathtub, then you have to be carried into the bath by someone.Both of them are young and bloody, skin to skin contact will inevitably lead to some indecent reactions from the body, the prince Che has been in love for a long time, so naturally he doesn't mind these things, it's just that Zuo Qi suffers, and he doesn't know what to do every time good.

So the matter of bathing can be postponed as long as you can, from once every three days to once every five days. It's okay in the cold weather, even if you don't wash for ten and a half months, it's okay, but once the weather gets warmer, you can move around casually. Sweating all over, I can't help but wash.

By the way, it was time to take a bath again. After Nan'er boiled the water, he let the prince Cheti go to the backyard, and finally filled the tub, but Zuo Qi stood outside the house for a long time and refused to go in, saying that the water was too hot. Wait for it to cool before washing.Knowing that he was in an awkward situation again, and a few words of persuasion were useless, Prince Che simply carried him into the house without doing anything else. Nan'er had seen many such scenes, and she was very savvy, so she just smiled. , put down the change of clothes, closed the door and left.

Because she was wearing leg shackles, it was extremely difficult to take off the clothes on her lower body.This was done while sitting, with the trousers pulled down to the ankle first, then one leg of the trousers was passed through the shackles, and finally the other.

In the beginning, Zuo Qi always took off his coat first and then his trousers, so he had to do it naked. Every time at this moment, Prince Che would watch from the side, waiting for him to finish without saying a word.Zuo Qi was uncomfortable at first, and his movements became more and more clumsy when he saw him like this, until later he learned to be smart and no longer took off his coat first, but his trousers first.

Prince Che stretched out his hand to test the temperature of the water, and it was not too hot. He turned his head to look at Zuo Qi, only to see that his trousers were only half removed, and the movements of his hands were still unhurried.As soon as he was in a hurry, he went directly to untie his waist...

Zuo Qi was so frightened by his sudden action that he backed away, and then said: "Don't do it, I can do it myself."

Prince Che didn't give up, and leaned forward again, pushing and shoving him, "I really don't know what you're awkward about, it's like this every time, so I have to accompany you to soak in lukewarm water every time. Once you finish it again, I guess you can only soak in cold water, you quickly take your hands away, or I will directly throw you and your clothes into the bucket."

Since he was whipped three years ago, the prince Che, who has always been lazy in martial arts, has worked hard to improve himself. He often gets up when the cock crows and goes to the courtyard to swing a sword. His boxing skills have also improved a lot. He was always controlled by others before. At this moment, he can be evenly matched with the imprisoned Zuo Qi. The two fought each other, and the clothes on their bodies were almost taken off.

Prince Che carried him into the bucket first, and tore him a few times indiscriminately, completely stripping off his clothes.He supported the edge of the bucket with one hand, exerted force on his feet, and in the blink of an eye, he also got into the bucket, splashing water all over his head and face.

Seeing him getting too close, Zuo Qi was a little dissatisfied and said: "This bucket is not small, why do you have to squeeze me to wash?"

Instead of retreating, he advanced: "Do you hate me or something?"

"I know I didn't mean that, but you are so close, I..." Zuo Qi paused, turned his head away and said, "I will feel uncomfortable."

Prince Che retracted his head, not intending to play tricks on him anymore.Then he held a strand of his wet hair in his palm to play with, and suddenly said seriously: "Aqi, apart from your family, do you have anyone in Qu Country who you miss?"

"Okay, why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

He pondered for a while: "I just want to know who else you miss besides your family."

Zuo Qi thought for a moment, then replied: "No."

Prince Che quickly answered: "What about Mu Yan? I remember that you sold many valuable things back then just to redeem her and her brother's body. With such friendship, who would believe that she is not your sweetheart? "

Zuo Qi glanced at him: "Okay, why did you suddenly mention her? Back then, I just saw that she was different from ordinary women and shouldn't be buried in that filthy place, so I had a hidden heart and rescued her. Besides, I only met her a few times, so it is not enough to give birth to affection. She also only regards me as a benefactor to me. It seems unclear when you say it this time. She really thinks that I am the same as you. When I was only twelve or thirteen, I hugged left and right."

The prince Che retorted urgently: "I didn't specify the pick-up girls, but the concubine mother made her own decision. If the maid who washed the clothes hadn't told her about my wet dream, maybe I would still be innocent today!"

Zuo Qi was dumbfounded by his words, and felt a little ashamed of his words, so he said: "You are really shameless, going to 'Panghualou' every now and then is also forced by your aunt? You don’t want to touch girls when you send them to the Prince’s Palace, could it be that their weak women can still rob you of your innocence? You’re talking about innocence, why didn’t I know that men have chastity!”

Prince Che smiled instead of anger: "Okay, okay, you are right. Since I am romantic and passionate, what about you? How do you usually deal with this matter?"

"..."

Seeing that he was puzzled, Prince Che coughed lightly again: "I think it's not too late for you to know about the affairs of the people, and uncle has never bought half a concubine for you, so how did you relieve yourself all these years?"

Zuo Qi's cheeks warmed up: "Okay, why are you talking about this again?"

"I don't need to ask, I know that, I think it would be the same when I don't have anyone to accompany me, but if I do it myself, I must be thinking of someone, and that person must be a graceful woman. As far as I am concerned, I want to Qin'er from 'Banghualou' is the one who got the most attention, nowadays, women with looks like her are not uncommon, it's just that she hadn't seen the world when she was young." After saying that, she felt that she would The topic got far away, so he continued: "Tell me, who was you thinking about at those times, can I recognize that person?"

Zuo Qi thought to himself, what he said was right, since the first time he saw him kissing him in his dream, it was impossible for him to be someone else.At that time, the two often slept in each other's arms, and he had to endure and restrain himself so as not to be noticed by him. This was a great torture for him.I often sneak out of the room in the middle of the night, picture his every frown and smile in my mind, think of his tenderness without any ambiguous words to release, but after the release, I hate myself in my heart.Even in the current era where masculinity is prevalent, it is against human relations for two men to have sex after all, and ordinary people are not ashamed, let alone those who were born in the royal family and in the family of officials!

If I tell the truth, I am afraid that from today onwards he will avoid me and never let him be by my side again.That being the case, we can only let this dirty and shameful feeling be buried deep in the ground until it will never see the light of day!

Zuo Qi murmured: "That person only appeared in my dreams, even I couldn't figure it out myself, how would you know?"

The prince Che gave a dry laugh, and an unknown feeling gushed out of his chest inexplicably, as if being crushed by a stone mill, his limbs and bones were aching.
