The seventh princess insists on letting me eat soft rice

"Your Highness, the son-in-law woke up just now. Now the doctor wants to show her eyes, but she refuses to take off her mask, what do you think?"

Gao Jingxi, who had just hurriedly got off the carriage and walked into the front yard, saw a pink-clothed maid running over in a panic and said so to the two of them.

"Don't panic," Gao Jingxi concealed the urgency in her heart very well, that stunning face that made the sun and the moon pale, was full of composure, only the hands hidden in the long sleeves with phoenix pattern, clenched uncontrollably, "You go to clean the study and prepare refreshments. After two hours, I will discuss important matters with all the ministers."

Far away, before returning to her and Lian Liejin's bedroom, they heard Lian Liejin's angry voice, "Dr., as I said, this mask is on my face. I can't take it off." Come down. Get out, you don’t need to feel my pulse, I won’t die yet.”

It seemed that the doctor and other servants were still persuading Lian Liejin, which made her raise her voice again, "My son-in-law said that only Her Royal Highness can see eyes, and you will be scared to death."

In the room, a gust of breeze drifted in along the open carved wooden window, blowing away the black hair in front of Lian Liejin, and the red Bianhua flower on the pure black mask she was wearing was bleeding red at this moment, so look carefully , There will even be a sense of blood flowing faintly.

Coupled with the black bottom, it seems that the other shore flowers are blooming in front of them.Lian Liejin gritted her teeth tightly, the noise from the people next to her and the tingling sensation from the veins in her eyes made her even more agitated. She tried her best to suppress the power of shadow drawn by the golden lotus, and the more and more The more intense the burning dizziness.

She could feel something blazing hot, burning her eyes into red gold, uncontrollable power throbbing restlessly, hidden in her eyes, waiting to burst out.So, she is enduring.

Unexpectedly, the golden lotus in the hands of the dark guards sent by the emperor to arrest him last time belonged to Concubine Lian.Even she had never heard of this kind of lotus, and there was no record in her mother's books.

It has been slowly entering the summer, fortunately this time she has been wearing the cloud-covering wood mask, so she forcibly suppressed the power of shadow, otherwise... a lot of power of shadow will be poured out in the palace, and at that time there will be cause a great impact.

As soon as she stepped into the door, Gao Jingxi raised her eyes and saw that Lian Liejin was half-squatting on the corner of the bed with his back to him, and the doctor and two servants next to him showed helpless expressions.

"Your Highness, please take care of the son-in-law." These servants all know that the relationship between the seventh princess and the seventh son-in-law is very good, and they are very affectionate.As a result, they filed complaints one after another, talking in a hurry.

Especially the chubby cook lady, holding a bowl of delicious green vegetable shredded chicken noodles, complained angrily, "Your Highness, it has been an hour, and the son-in-law refuses to take off his mask, and he refuses to drink medicinal food." , If this goes on, what can I do? Look at her little face, which is as white as ice. Is it because she dislikes the food I cook? She came to the kitchen and ate two eggs last night. "

"You all go down. From now on, what the son-in-law says will be what he says. You don't have to ask me for instructions on everything." Seeing that Lian Liejin was not unconscious, Gao Jingxi's heart sank slightly.

In the chaos, Lian Liejin relaxed a lot when he heard Gao Jing Xi Qing's voice like water, and then turned his face and retorted:

"You can't see my son-in-law's face, how can you come to the conclusion that my little face is pale."

Everyone filed out, leaving Lian Liejin and Gao Jingxi alone.The two had only been separated for one morning, but the surroundings were chaotic, as if they had parted for a long three autumns.

"They said you were unconscious?" Gao Jingxi reached out to take off Lian Liejin's mask, but she held her fingertips unexpectedly. "Can't I move too?"

"No, Your Highness, if you take off the mask now, the shadow power will escape. Besides, I just fainted for a while, just to scare them." Lian Liejin lay flat on the bed, his expression much calmer , explaining gently:

"Concubine Lian is not a good thing. That golden lotus must be related to the Shadow Clan. Your Highness should send someone to the north to hunt her down."

"North?"

"Well, there used to be traces of shadows in the northern city of Ross's capital." After smelling Gao Jingxi's breath, Lian Liejin found that her body had miraculously calmed down. The princess had no choice but to bend down, then rubbed against his neck, and said weakly:

"It's just my guess. She will flee north."

For some reason, Gao Jingxi suddenly remembered that Wei Guaner's letter said that she was waiting for Lian Liejin in the extreme north, could the two have something to do...Gao Jingxi couldn't help shaking her head , Such an idea is a bit far-fetched, and they are obviously two people who are not related to each other.

Feeling Lian Liejin's hot air behind her ears, Gao Jingxi smiled helplessly, and touched the man's hairy head with concern, "Do your eyes hurt? I don't know how to cure diseases, and you still talk to them What to say, the eyes can only let me see."

"That's not good. With my golden eyes, I can scare a few people to death in broad daylight. It's useless to call a doctor. We don't have a doctor who can treat the shadow clan. We'll be fine later." Lian Lie Jin pressed Gao Jingxi on the edge of the bed, but he was wearing brocade underwear and dangling barefoot on the edge of the bed, "Your Highness, don't you want to discuss matters with the adults?"

Seeing that Lian Liejin didn't want to talk more about eyes, Gao Jingxi also understood that she didn't want to worry too much, but how could she not worry?

The man's face was still pale with sickness, and then he thought about what Lian Liejin said to himself that day after he and his mother had a clean break.He is obviously a doctor who indulges in mountains and rivers and likes to do business, but he is willing to say something for himself, and his armor is the first.

But...her eyes, and her current physical condition.

Gao Jingxi's eyes shone with a hazy watery light, "Lie Jin, although I canonized He Cheng as a general today to lead the army to the front, but news came from various counties and counties, and there were riots in Lan Geng again. Natural disasters and man-made disasters coupled with this war with Rhodes, we can’t afford to fight, but we have to fight. However, no matter whether we win or lose, it will be a great loss to Lan Geng’s people’s livelihood.”

While talking, Gao Jingxi lowered her head, her thick eyelashes were like a small fan, her eyes were heavy, "I'm worried, if it takes a year, two years or even three to five years, even if Lan Geng wins the battle. I am afraid that it will not be able to withstand the internal friction of the war, the people will not be able to live, and there will be endless troubles. The worst thing is that the post-war handling is not good, and it may cause uprisings in various places. After all, if the peace won by bloody battles for a country cannot protect the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Our There will be civil unrest.”

A cup of clear tea appeared in sight, and then Gao Jingxi heard Lian Liejin say: "Drink tea first. I understand what Your Highness means. Only justice can bring peace. Don't worry about scarcity but inequality."

As the warm tea flowed into her stomach, Gao Jingxi felt a little less panicked, but what Lian Liejin said the next moment almost made her choke on herself.

"Your Highness, come to me if you need money for the war, but you need to issue an IOU. According to the market price, you will get two cents a year. But based on our relationship, one cent will be fine. When the time comes, we will repair the one-knife house, and there will be more money." The cost of opening a branch will be recorded in the account of the Princess Mansion."

"Ahem, Lian Liejin, you unscrupulous businessman! Now that your food and clothing are not spent on my money, you dare to bargain with me." Gao Jingxi pinched Lian Lie angrily Gently rubbing Jin's small earlobes back and forth, she smiled warmly, "It's better to leave your little silver for the knife you have been thinking about."

"Your Highness, you can underestimate me, but you can't underestimate my money." Lian Liejin pulled up the robe that was put aside, put it on his body, ran to a small cabinet in the corner of the room, fiddled with it for a while, and took out a It looked like a thin book, and her pale face could not conceal the complacency and pride on her face.

She stretched out a finger, shaking it left and right, "Look, take a good look, my worth is not something everyone can afford."

Gao Jingxi wanted to sneer, even Lie Jin looked so money-obsessed, no matter how rich he was, it was still money in the public account.

But when she roughly finished browsing the ledger, her surprise and faint admiration for her son-in-law reached a small peak.

"Your Highness, when we got married, the betrothal gifts were all from the Duke of Yan's mansion. Take these silver coins as my betrothal gifts to you."

No one is married and has children, so there is no talk of dowry.Gao Jingxi didn't care about that, because Lian Liejin was a little ashamed when he talked about the dowry, and directly sighed:

"Lian Liejin, if you become an official in the court, you will definitely have your home ransacked for corruption and bribery."

"Your Highness, it's too unlucky for you to speak like that. Whoever ransacked the house or not ransacked it? It's so ugly. I have a good management, plus the filial piety of Zhao Shimei and all the brothers and sisters every year, I have saved this amount. Huge possessions.

Gao Jingxi remembered that when the two of them were in Qingyue Mountain, Lian Liejin had so skillfully robbed the so-called Junior Sister Zhao, and reluctantly believed this statement.

"So, Lie Jin, I also need to go to the battlefield in person, so that this war, which is a disaster for the common people, can be ended as soon as possible." After a short period of joy, Gao Jingxi immediately said seriously:

"The origin of this golden lotus is unknown. I'm worried that if I meet it on the battlefield... Therefore, you can't go with me. The blind can rest assured and wait for my return."

Lian Liejin seemed not to have heard Gao Jingxi's words, his smile was still pious and warm, and he hugged the woman tightly, "Your Highness, I will do as you say. When the time comes, you will wear a heavy brocade battle robe, I will With Mingguang's armor, you can go anywhere."

"Did you hear clearly? I told you that you are not allowed to go with me."

"Your Highness, I used to not understand why there are so many rare treasures on this continent, and I am also one of them. But recently, I have figured it out," Lian Liejin covered Gao Jingxi's red lips, wickedly Pressed it firmly, and continued to say in a calm voice:

"Thanks to the power of shadow, even if I can't stop a million troops alone, I can be a striker and kill dozens of enemies, it's not a problem."

"Your Highness, I will guard this country for you." Lian Liejin opened his eyes again, the golden eyes were bright, not like ordinary people.

"Your Highness, if you don't agree, I will go to the conscription office to sign up now. I will be an ordinary soldier, and there is still time to serve the country."
