The Young Emperor and the Fearless

People who feel insecure are probably like this. They are guarded against strangers and honest with people they know well. At the same time, they are afraid of doing something wrong. As long as they are needed, they feel that they are recognized.

In the past few days, He Li has behaved like this in front of Ju Xie, and Ju Xie has gradually understood through his subtle expressions.

Ju Xie patted him lightly, encouraged He Li, and jumped to get the sweet potato that Ju Xie pointed to.

They want baked sweet potatoes.

The sweet potatoes were thrown into the stove, and a fragrance was slowly produced.

He Li sniffed, touched his stomach again, and suddenly said, "I want to eat."

Ju Xie chuckled and said, "It's all medicine, but your nose is so sensitive that you can smell sweet potatoes."

He Li felt that he had been praised, and lowered his head shyly.

Not far away, He Junzhi and Meng Qing stayed behind the door. They had been here for a while, but because they were worried, He Li was afraid to see them, so they didn't come out.

He Junzhi asked in a low voice: "Brother Meng, why don't we come here again before the emperor leaves."

Meng Qing was sullen, shaking her head and said: "It's not an option to go on like this. We have been avoiding him, and he has been afraid of others. Is it possible that he will not be able to see anyone for the rest of his life?"

He Junzhi said: "Brother Meng, what do you think?"

Meng Qing answered him directly with actions.He came out from behind the door and walked straight into the kitchen.He Junzhi was stunned for a moment, and immediately followed.

The fire in the medicine stove burned the faces of the two people around him red. Hearing the sound of footsteps, Ju Xie didn't move, still using a wooden stick to adjust the heat, but He Li stood up and took a step back in horror.

Without raising her head, Ju Xie threatened, "Don't come close."

A few steps away, Meng Qing and He Junzhi stopped in their tracks.

Meng Qing met He Li's eyes from afar, and both of them felt very strange to each other.Speaking of which, He Li fell ill twice in the palace, one time was taken care of by the late emperor, and the other time by Meng Qing, but that time, Ju Xie was also there.

From this point of view, every time He Li gets sick, he will forget the past.Perhaps, he had no memory of the illness at all.

He Junzhi declared: "We have no malicious intentions..."

Of course Juxie knew, but He Li would not relax his vigilance against them.He couldn't help but took another step back, almost stepping into the stove.

Ju Xie threw the wooden stick and reminded: "Be careful."

The dry wood made crackling noises from the fire, and sparks splashed onto He Li's trouser legs, burning several black holes.

Ju Xie hugged He Li and leaned in, away from the stove, said: "It's okay, I'm here, don't be afraid."

Not far away, Meng Qing frowned, and wanted to say a few words, but her Adam's apple rolled twice, and she swallowed the words.

But He Junzhi couldn't help but said: "Doctor Ju, you know that we will not do anything to the emperor, why don't you explain a few words to him. He will only listen to you."

Ju Xie said: "I don't care how Heli treats others. To make him accept you, he needs to feel your kindness first."

He Junzhi said: "Good intentions?"

Ju Xie said: "You two are smart and smart, I don't think I need to explain."

He Junzhi felt that Juxie was too indifferent to others at the beginning, but now he found that he cherishes words like gold, and it is very difficult for him to ask a few more words.Moreover, his tone made people sound uncomfortable.

He Junzhi hoped that he was worrying too much, but when he didn't know how to answer the conversation, the scene fell into an embarrassing situation.

At this time, Meng Qing broke the dull atmosphere and asked: "He Li just went to He Yi's place, do you know?"

Ju Xie looked over and didn't seem surprised.

Meng Qing said: "He Li tried to strangle He Yi who had no power to resist, but He Li has no memory of the past. Where does his resentment towards He Yi come from?"

Ju Xie said, "You suspect that I'm instigating him?"

Meng Qing said: "I'm just asking my question."

As if sensing the tense atmosphere between them, he peacefully hid behind Juxie uneasily.Ju Xie held He Li's hand, clasped his fingers together, and comforted him with the warmth of his palm.

Meng Qing was a little displeased with their intimate behavior, but held back, waiting for Ju Xie's answer.

After a long while, Ju Xie said slowly: "It is true that He Li can't remember everything that happened when he fell ill, but he does have the memory of his enemy. He is very clear about who caused him to fall ill and who has malice towards him."

Therefore, after the onset of the disease, He Li would hate birds so much that he would go to He Yi's room and kill him.

Ju Xie said again: "When he was ill before, He Li never showed mercy to those who wanted to harm him. He would not spare anyone who could kill him. But this time, he didn't kill He Yi. Do you know why?"

He Junzhi cooperated and asked, "Why?"

Ju Xie said: "He has humanity."

To use an analogy, at the very beginning, when He Li got sick, in order to protect himself from harm, he would only attack people blindly, like a fierce tiger and beast that his six relatives do not recognize.But this time, Juxie made him conscious, he could hear people's words, recognize people's faces, and even spoke.

Therefore, he has two peaceful statements.

but……

He Junzhi said: "Then... the former emperor, can't he come back?"

Everyone wants to know this question.

Ju Xie rarely showed embarrassment, and fell silent.

He Junzhi asked: "Doctor Ju, Your Majesty has a heart disease. Sooner or later, the heart disease will be cured, right?"

Ju Xie hasn't answered yet, but He Li trembles uncontrollably.

He Li understood what he said.

It seemed that they were going to abandon themselves, panic, helplessness, worry... all kinds of emotions came to their hearts, and He Li angrily wanted to shake off Juxie's hand.

Ke Juxie noticed it a step earlier and held on tightly.

Ju Xie shouted at He Junzhi: "That's enough, let's go."

When He Junzhi saw Heli's reaction, he was surprised that something was wrong. What he said just now was obviously dissatisfied with Heli in front of him, thinking that he was 'ill'.

How to do?

It was he who said the wrong thing.

He Junzhi was in a panic and lost his mind.

Meng Qing lowered her eyes and said helplessly: "Eager for quick success and instant benefit, it often backfires. Let's go, we'll talk about it later."

**

It takes a long process to adjust the peaceful state of mind.

Ju Xie guarded the medicine stove and couldn't walk away, so she spread a layer of clean straw on the ground and let He Li lie down.However, this time, He Li was extremely uncooperative.

He Li broke away from Juxie, shrank in a corner, with his head against the wall, no matter how much Juxie pulled him, he refused to move.

Ju Xie said dejectedly: "He Li, no one will harm you, you will be fine."

He Li shook his head and pushed Ju Xie away vigorously.

Ju Xie coaxed: "Stop making trouble, the sweet potatoes are ready, let's eat them, shall we?"

Ju Xie took out the sweet potatoes from the stove, because they were already ripe, and they could smell a fragrance through a layer of skin.He greeted: "Heli, come quickly."

Ke Heli just looked around and continued to squat in the corner.

Ju Xie said: "If you don't eat it, I'll eat it, but we baked two, and I can't finish it all by myself. He Li, come and help me eat one, how about it?"

Still deliberately using the tone of asking for help, Heli finally gave a response.He stood up, moved hesitantly to the side of Juxie, squatted down with him, and carefully picked up another sweet potato.

Ju Xie said softly, "Be careful it's hot."

The sweet potato was steaming, but Heli didn't notice it at all, and he opened his mouth to bite.But he didn't break open the sweet potato, he gnawed directly on the scorched skin of the sweet potato, and got a mouthful of ashes.

Ju Xie said: "Wait, I'll feed you."

Ju Xie broke open the sweet potato in her hand, blew a few mouthfuls, probably felt it was appropriate, and handed it to He Li's mouth.

The sweet potato tasted very sweet, He Li took a couple of bites, then simply split open the sweet potato in his hand, following Juxie's example, and began to feast on it.

In the end, both sweet potatoes were eaten by He Li, and He Li touched his belly, feeling a little unfinished.

Ju Xie breathed a sigh of relief, what He Junzhi said just now should be regarded as exposing.

But Heli suddenly asked: "Do you think so too?"

Ju Xie said, "What?"

Heli said: "You also think that I shouldn't exist, right?"

Ju Xie sighed, and said: "No, you are a living person. Since you are a human being, you should live well. You are you, and you are He Li."

Heli said: "Don't you want to see another Heli?"
