Great Zhou Empress

There were too many wounds on Xiao Liege's back, Xue Zhijing almost applied most of the ointment before it was finally over, there was no clean cloth at this time, so she had to leave her back open.

Fearing that she would be cold, Xue Zhijing added two more fires.

After applying the ointment, Xiao Liege felt that the pain in the wound on his back was relieved a lot, and he still felt a little cool and comfortable. He smiled at Xue Zhijing, "It feels like you're here, I'm more than half healed."

Xue Zhijing touched her forehead, feeling the heat on it, and said with a smile, "Seeing me will make you feel better, right?"

Xiao Liege tried to nod, but because he was lying on his stomach, he couldn't make it clear, and was a little annoyed.

Xue Zhijing dipped a towel in hot water for her, folded it up and put it on her forehead, trying to cool her down, but the effect was not good, so she had to wipe her, and took her palm to wipe her.

Xiao Liege also said in a daze, "I feel like a baby lying in a cradle now, and you are the nanny who takes care of people."

Xue Zhijing glanced at her angrily, "Is it the kind of nanny who still wraps her head in a cloth and still has enough milk?"

Xiao Liege tried hard to open his eyes, glanced at Xue Zhijing from top to bottom, smiled, and said, "It seems that there is not enough milk."

Xue Zhijing: "..."

If Xiao Liege teased her like this on a normal day, she would definitely go up and pat her on the head, and then maybe hug and kiss her, and then it would be a half-night exercise.

But at this moment, Xiao Liege was so badly injured that he seemed in a daze, how could Xue Zhijing dare to touch her.

"You're still in the mood to tease me. You look sleepy. Go to sleep. I'll go and see if the fabric Zhen Yuan gave you has been boiled and dried. You still need to bandage your back."

Xiao Liege shook his head, "I don't want to fall asleep, I'm afraid you will leave if you fall asleep."

"I won't. I came all the way here to find you. How could I leave?"

"I'm afraid I'm dreaming."

Hey!

Xiao Liege was probably really confused.

Xue Zhijing had no choice but to bend his lower body slightly, and kissed her forehead for a while, then got up and said, "Did you feel my temperature? Is it true?"

Xiao Liege pouted, which meant that it was also needed here.

But this position was a bit challenging, Xue Zhijing had to let himself lie down, and then he approached, and lightly kissed her on the lips.

Only then did Xiao Liege prepare to rest peacefully.

Xue Zhijing came out and saw Zhen Yuan and the others were drying the freshly made sterilized cloth towels while arranging today's vigil among themselves.Xue Zhijing greeted the marines she had brought and asked them to cooperate with Zhen Yuan, and then everyone had to act as a group.

It was almost night, and everyone baked food together. The Liao people did not lack food in such a dense forest. They were all good hunters. On the contrary, they were marines with some dry food.

Everyone gathered together to eat, and gradually became familiar with it.

Zhen Yuan and a few nobles could speak Chinese, so they acted as translators for both parties. After a meal, the relationship between the two parties became much better.

After Xue Zhijing ate the meat, she felt that the fatigue of the past few days was gone. She used a ceramic bowl to fill some dry food paste mixed with minced meat and brought it to Xiao Liege.

But seeing that Xiao Liege was fast asleep, she didn't wake her up to eat, she was going to wait for her to wake up, heat it up on the fire and then eat.

Seeing that Xiao Liege was still asleep, Xue Zhijing also felt a little tired, so he took off his clothes, spread them on the floor, and fell asleep leaning against the wall not far from Xiao Liege.

After finding Xiao Liege, she relaxed completely. Unlike before, she was thinking about it all the time. Although she looked calm on the surface, her heart was twisted into a ball. When she slept on the tree at night, It is easy to wake up.

At this time, Xue Zhijing seemed to have returned to his big bed in the imperial palace of the capital, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

It wasn't until she felt a touch on her ankle that Xue Zhijing woke up slowly. She opened her eyes, and sure enough, Xiao Liege, who was lying there, had woken up, looking at her with her clear amber eyes. .

"Are you awake, are you hungry? I'll help you warm up something to eat." Xue Zhijing slowly got up, and put the batter that she had brought in before on the side of the fire to heat up.

Xue Zhijing added wood to the fire, and said, "I don't know what time it is, I seem to have fallen asleep."

Xiao Liege was lying on his stomach, tilting his head to look at her, looking cute and obedient.

Xue Zhijing glanced sideways, his heart softened, he stretched out his hand to touch her head, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"No, just look at you."

"Did you wake up for a long time, call me." Xue Zhijing faced Xiao Liege, and said while helping her straighten the broken hair on her forehead.

"I haven't woken up for a long time. I just saw you coming. I'm afraid that I'm dreaming about your coming." When Xiao Liege said this, he was like a pitiful child, even his tone was fragile. the taste of.

"How come? I really showed up, don't worry." Xue Zhijing touched her face with his fingertips as he said, letting her feel his own warmth. The palms rubbed against each other, like a kitten.

"How did you find me?" Xiao Liege asked.

Xue Zhijing smiled and said, "You, you don't send me any information. I was a little worried, so I asked someone to come to the Liao Kingdom to investigate. This investigation was very good. Then I heard about the rebellion of your eastern tribe. The Marine Corps was recalled and moored off the coast of your Liao country, and then I received the news of your disappearance. I came here without stopping, and landed from the port I rented."

Xue Zhijing specifically mentioned the leased port because Xiao Liege learned that Xue Zhijing had opened a door in their backyard of the Liao Kingdom, and even danced with her. Fortunately, he did not abandon this port.

"To be honest, I didn't expect to find you. We have set a rough range, but the range is large enough, and you know, this mountain forest is so vast and primitive, and the environment is complex and changeable. The place to find someone. I think, this is the power of love, guiding me to you."

Xue Zhijing was right, she came to find Xiao Liege essentially because of her luck, although she brought along a member of the Marine Corps who was very good at surviving in the wild, she was also very lucky to find Xiao Liege.

"Hearing you say that, it feels like my back is healed instantly, and it doesn't hurt anymore." Xiao Liege said with a smile.

When Xue Zhijing heard this, although he was happy, he also wondered if the medicine had started to work.

"Wouldn't it be great, my baby will recover soon, so he won't have to suffer."

Speaking of suffering, hatred flashed in Xiao Liege's eyes, "That Yelu Mengnan and Yelu Yan, I let them go, and they treated me like this."

"What happened after you were captured by them?" Xue Zhijing asked.

Xiao Liege was probably too tired from lying on her stomach, so she wanted to get up at this time, Xue Zhijing looked at the ointment on her back, a lot of it had been absorbed, and there was no dripping down her back, so she helped her sit up .

Sitting up, Xiao Liege panted slightly, Xue Zhijing helped her put the clothes on from the front, leaving only the back.

Xiao Liege lowered his head and said, "If I lie down again, I'll be flat."

Xue Zhijing sneered, "I don't know that you still have a preference for plumpness?"

Xiao Liege snorted, and said to her, "I'm worried that you won't be pinched."

Xue Zhijing pinched her face, and said with a smile, "Oh, baby, you've improved, now that you're talking about this, you don't blush anymore, where did my shy boy go?"

"Go! Go! Go!"

"They designed it, and I fell for it if I didn't notice it for a while. There were only a few guards around me, and they were all killed. I was locked on the frame by them." Xiao Liege said slowly, "Yelu Mengnan, you want to usurp The heart of the emperor is not dead, he has secretly accumulated strength, these years, he has contacted many tribes in the east, and secretly imported weapons from your Great Zhou."

"Weapons? I have such strict control, and there are still people smuggling them. Do you really think my Marine Corps is just a display?" Xue Zhijing said with a cold face.

Xiao Liege gave her a blank look, "You should clean it up when you go back, it was probably made by some powerful people along the coast, they were all hidden in merchant ships and shipped over, after all Yelu Mengnan gave a lot of money, There are always some people who are willing to take risks, he is really desperate. In this way, he has accumulated a lot of strength in the mountains and forests here, and the arrival of Yeluyan has given him more expectations."

"They all knew I was useful, so they didn't kill me, and they didn't dare to kill me, but they all hated me, so they kept torturing me on the verge of killing me. Especially that crazy woman Yeluyan In the middle, I tried to force me a few times, grandma, but she still kissed me. I was so mad. That crazy woman, why did I let her be Xiao Derui's queen? I knew she was arrogant and domineering before, but I didn't expect her to be so scary when she went crazy."

How could Xue Zhijing care about Xiao Liege being kissed by Yeluyan, she just felt distressed and angry.

"Fortunately, Zhen Yuan and the others rescued me desperately. We were blocked by Yelumengnan's army, and we couldn't join my main force. The wound on my body was serious again, so it dragged on until now."

"It's okay, after two days you'll feel better, we'll go down the mountain together, find your main force, and wipe out Yelu Mengnan."

After feeding the dry food paste to Xiao Liege, Xiao Liege's complexion seemed to be better, in fact, part of it should be an illusion, it is the expression that Xiao Liege's energy is better now.

After eating, Xue Zhijing asked Xiao Liege if he wanted to sleep a little longer, but Xiao Liege said he couldn't sleep anymore and wanted to talk to her.

"What have you done these days when I was in Liao Kingdom?"

While Xiao Liege was talking, he leaned his head on Xue Zhijing's shoulder, but Xue Zhijing was afraid of touching the wound behind her, so he didn't dare to touch her, so he only let her lean on his forehead, which was quite a strenuous gesture. .

"I, I have done a lot of things, and the companion capital, Wanguo City, is almost half repaired."

"Oh?" There was surprise in Xiao Liege's tone, "Is it so fast?"

"Yeah, I'm thinking about going to live with you. I didn't let the palace be built as big as Bianjing City. We will only live together when the time comes. If it's too big, it's a waste. It's about [-]% the size of the Bianjing Palace. But The craftsmen are all talented people. When I went to inspect, they were building. They used wood to make tenon and tenon structures, and built an eaves one by one. During the period, they did not use a single nail. I saw that It’s amazing. A craftsman even gave me a small toy. He said he made a random ball out of leftover materials, and it turned out to be a wooden ball. He told me to take it apart, saying that it was all small pieces of wood spliced ​​together. But you said, I researched it for a long time, but I couldn’t even find where to start dismantling it, so I’m embarrassed.”

Xiao Liege laughed out loud, and teased, "Our Emperor of Great Zhou, who is knowledgeable and wise, will also encounter problems that he cannot solve."

"Yeah, it's a pity I didn't bring that little wooden ball, otherwise, I'll let you try and see if you can take it apart."

"Then I can definitely take it apart."

"So sure?"

Xue Zhijing tilted his head slightly and said to Xiao Liege's head, "I haven't washed my hair for a long time, you don't dislike it, are you still kissing?"

Xue Zhijing smiled and said, "I don't dislike it."

While talking, Xiao Liege slowly fell asleep, the body still needs to rest the wound to heal quickly.

Xue Zhijing slowly put her down on the "bed" made for her, seeing her back, he thought it was better to go outside to see if the cloth towel was dry, and bandage her up.

He stood up, moved his legs that were numb from sitting for too long, and then slowly walked out of the cave.

There were two people guarding outside, Xue Zhijing greeted them, and saw Zhen Yuan sitting on a rock by the river, with a fire in front of her, surrounded by white cloths to dry.

Seeing Xue Zhijing, Zhen Yuan asked, "Is the princess better? These fabrics should be usable."

Xue Zhijing smiled at her, "The medicine seems to have worked. She woke up just now, ate something, and now she is asleep."

Zhen Yuan laughed, "That's great. With Mr. Jing here, the princess must be fine." Suddenly, she thought of something, and said awkwardly, "Should I call you His Majesty the Great Zhou Emperor?"

Xue Zhijing waved his hand, "Let me be called Mr. Jing. With you, I would rather be the gentleman who learns and grows with you."

In fact, Zhenyuan felt the same way here. Although many years have passed, Xue Zhijing left their Liao Kingdom and once became the emperor of the newly established Great Zhou Dynasty in the south, but when they met, Zhenyuan still felt that what she saw , is still the old Mr. Jing who always stands tall and seems to know everything.

Xue Zhijing was a little worried about safety. Zhen Yuan said that she had arranged people to watch the night on the nearby hills, and would blow a whistle to notify them if there was any situation. They have come here in this way these days, so Xue Zhijing felt relieved. Surviving in the wild is still from the Liao Kingdom powerful.

Taking the clean cloth back to the cave, Xue Zhijing carefully bandaged Xiao Liege. Xiao Liege was woken up by her, but knowing it was her, he squinted his eyes and let her move.

In the end, Xue Zhijing finally wrapped up the wounds on her back, and now she can put on clothes, since it is easy to catch a cold when the back is always hanging out like this.

After tossing and tossing for so long, Xue Zhijing finally had a chance to sleep.

When she woke up the next day, Xue Zhijing seemed to have a dream that someone was looking at her. Unexpectedly, when she woke up, she really saw Xiao Liege looking at her, and she brought a hair in her hand Tried to scratch the itch of her nose.

Xue Zhijing grabbed her hand and smiled, "So energetic? How long have you been awake?"

"Wake up early!" Xiao Liege's voice became more energetic, "Look at you for a long time, you are really old-fashioned, you are still sleeping with a straight face, motionless."

"Who still smiles while sleeping?" Xue Zhijing gave her a blank look, "Naturally, you have to sleep in a dignified way, so how can you become old-fashioned?"

"It's just old-fashioned, and I don't feel like I'm in my 20s, like I'm in my 40s."

Xue Zhijing shook his head with a smile, and said, "It's already dawn, I'll go out and see if I can get you something to eat."

It was bright outside, and there were more people. Those who wanted to sleep in the surrounding trees last night all got up.

Zhen Yuan was catching fish in the river, saying that she wanted to change Xiao Liege's appetite, and Xue Zhijing called the Marine Corps to take the blame from them.This pot is not as big as a hat, and it can most likely be worn on the head as a hat, but the main way is to cook.

In fact, when the large army moved forward, it was not such a pot. Such a pot can only be regarded as a bowl, but this time when they came out, they were all in the mountains and forests.

After Zhen Yuan caught the fish, Xue Zhijing cleaned the pot, put a few stones around the fire, put the pot on the stand to boil water, and then waited for Zhen Yuan to handle the fish and put them in to cook.

She took out the seasoning from Zhen Yuan's treasure pouch and sprinkled some salt and pepper into it.

"It would be even better if there is ginger. Saute the fish with oil first, and the cooked fish will be more flavorful."

Zhen Yuan squatted next to Xue Zhijing and looked at Xue Zhijing with a smile, "Mr. Jing still knows so much. After becoming the emperor, he still hasn't forgotten about these chefs."

"The emperor doesn't want to eat and drink too much." Xue Zhijing looked at her, "These are all skills I learned long ago, how could I forget them? It's just that things are complicated now, and I haven't been to the kitchen for a long time."
