National teacher, he is a sick beauty

Shen Ci took the lead in saluting, "Your Majesty?"

Chu Lang glanced at Lin Wanshuang who was on the bed, but he didn't speak, the room was so quiet that he could hear his breathing.

Lin Wanshuang was secretly happy, whether Chu Lang came to see her or heard Shen Ci's words, it was a good thing for her.

Shen Ci turned sideways, anyway, Lin Wanshuang is now Chu Lang's savior, even if he cut off the cooperation, it is impossible to prevent Chu Lang from visiting Lin Wanshuang.

However, Chu Lang took his gaze away from Lin Wanshuang and landed on Shen Ci's ankle. Even though his robe was blocking him, he knew that Shen Ci's foot must be swollen.

Chu Lang walked up to Shen Ci, knelt down on one knee, lifted Shen Ci's robe to look at his feet.

Shen Ci was startled, and quickly grabbed Chu Lang to help him up: "Your Majesty, no!"

Chu Lang ignored Shen Ci, but looked gloomy at the white ankle swollen like a bun.

Shen Ci glanced outside. Although there are not many people in Qiwu Palace, once it spreads out, it will be like the rumors of Li Hou, and even more terrifying.

Shen Ci's face changed slightly, he broke free from Chu Lang's hand and left with a flick of his sleeve.

When he went out, he looked at the palace people outside Qiwu Palace, and said coldly: "Who dares to tell what happened today, the whole family of Qiwu Palace is connected to the nine clans!"

No one dared to speak out, and Shen Ci left Qiwu Palace directly.

The sweat on Zhao Yin's forehead had already fallen to the ground, almost forming a small puddle.

Chu Lang got up slowly, and instead of chasing after him immediately, he walked towards Lin Wanshuang.

Lin Wanshuang pretended to cough twice, and said rather weakly: "Your Majesty, the servant girl is fine, Your Majesty is worried."

Chu Lang sneered and sat down on the chair beside him. He looked at Lin Wanshuang coldly and said, "Do you think I don't know who saved me?"

Lin Wanshuang was stunned: "What does your majesty mean?"

Chu Lang said indifferently: "When you blocked the arrow just now, you pushed the gentleman, right? The husband is not healthy, and you almost pushed him into the lake with your sudden force. You injured him in order to grab credit. You said, this money How should the account be settled?"

Lin Wanshuang said quite aggrieved: "The minister did not push the Master of the State Teacher, but was eager to save His Majesty, so she didn't care about anything else."

"Oh?" Chu Lang raised his eyebrows, "Okay, I'll ask you again, when I went out to visit the lake in the palace, I don't know anyone better than you, sir and Zhao Yin, where did the assassin get the news from?"

Lin Wanshuang's face paled, only to hear Chu Lang ask again: "I just returned to the palace, the news hasn't spread yet, how did the Prime Minister find out about it so quickly and rushed into the palace again, dare you say that you don't know anything about it?"

Lin Wanshuang opened his mouth, but had nothing to say.

Chu Lang got up: "What is the truth about the assassination, I don't think I will pursue it for the sake of Lin Xiang's loyalty for many years, but if there is another time, I will not show mercy, you can do it yourself."

After Chu Lang said that, he left Qiwu Palace.

On the way back to the imperial study, Shen Ci ran into Prime Minister Lin who came to visit his daughter.

Seeing Shen Ci, Prime Minister Lin's calm face became even uglier: "Since Mr. Shen has broken the contract, please don't meddle in other matters."

Shen Ci said indifferently: "Prime Minister Lin, it's not that Shen broke the contract, right? Ms. Lin is the daughter of the prime minister's family, and her first daughter is a noble daughter. It's understandable that she dotes on Shen in every possible way, but she is a little unsteady, and she is not the best choice for the queen."

"You!" Prime Minister Lin was so annoyed by Shen Ci, he pointed at Shen Ci with trembling fingertips, "It's not the turn of the national teacher to criticize the real daughter of the prime minister!"

After he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and left.

Shen Ci showed no expression, and took another two steps forward, but was grabbed and hugged.

Shen Ci looked at Chu Lang's gloomy face, knowing that he was in a bad mood, but he didn't explain much to Fang Cai's own remarks, and only said: "Your Majesty, it is unreasonable to let the minister down."

Chu Lang hugged him forcefully, and walked towards the imperial study without saying a word.

He gently placed Shen Ci on the bed, took the medicine again, and lifted Shen Ci's robe to apply the medicine for him.

The ankle that could be pinched with one hand was so swollen that he couldn't hold it. He rubbed the red and swollen ankle with the palm of his hand, very gently, while scolding Shen Ci: "Since Mr. is injured, why do you still run to Qiwu Palace without knowing the seriousness?"

Shen Ci was silent for a moment: "Fortunately... hiss..."

Chu Lang exerted a little force, pretending to be punishing: "Sir's feet are swollen like this, and he said he's fine. What should we do if he doesn't recover well, or if it gets worse?"

Shen Ci pursed her lips: "Even so, Your Majesty shouldn't forget your identity, how can you kneel down with your courtiers in front of everyone?"

Chu Lang's momentum was weak: "I didn't kneel down, I just wanted to see Mr.'s injury."

Shen Ci: "That shouldn't be the case. Your Majesty has a noble status and is the Son of Great Chu. You must remember that your every move is in the eyes of the world."

Chu Lang rubbed Shen Ci's feet, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he could only nod his head: "I see."

Shen Ci saw that he was obedient, so he didn't say anything else. After Chu Lang finished taking the medicine, he said to him, "Mr., move and see if you feel unwell?"

Shen Ci gently turned his ankle, but there was still a burst of pain: "The medicine just started, it's not so fast, just rest for a few days and it will be fine."

Just as Shen Ci was about to retract his feet, Chu Lang still held them in his hand, rubbing his fingertips lightly. Shen Ci felt itchy, and couldn't help curling up his toes.

"Your Majesty..." Shen Ci reminded.

But Chu Lang said something else: "Sir, do you know that it is not easy to be assassinated today?"

Shen Ci slightly nodded: "Xiang Lin entered the palace too quickly, as if...knowing in advance, although he has always been neutral before and has never stood in the camp, but I am afraid he is just waiting for the opportunity."

Chu Lang nodded: "I agree with Mr. Lin, so Lin Wanshuang has no choice but to keep her. I have asked Prime Minister Lin to pick her up."

Shen Ci nodded, that's fine.

Chu Lang glanced at Shen Ci with a slight smile: "Will Mister still match me up without authorization in the future?"

Shen Ci: "..."

After Shen Ci was about to become the Empress of Chu, another rumor spread inside and even outside the palace.

"Miss Lin was taken back to the Prime Minister's Mansion by Prime Minister Lin yesterday, and it was indeed His Majesty who kicked her out."

"Miss Lin defends His Majesty. I thought His Majesty would marry Miss Lin. She should be a concubine if she is not a queen. Wouldn't it be ungrateful to drive someone out of the palace like this?"

"Hush! Don't talk nonsense, we are in the palace, you talk about His Majesty like this, you don't want your head?!"

"I was wrong. I was just complaining for Miss Lin. She even wanted her life for His Majesty, but His Majesty didn't even have a word of concern."

"Hey, Miss Lin came to the palace for His Majesty, and when she heard that His Majesty wanted to make Her Majesty the Queen, her expression changed."

"In order to please His Majesty, Ms. Lin even cooked and made pastries herself. Oh, and she doesn't have any pretensions. She is quite a nice person."

"What's the use of what we think is good, His Majesty must think."

Shen Ci also heard some gossip in the imperial study room, his feet were inconvenient, and he frowned slightly while sitting on the bed.

After only one night, rumors spread inside and outside the palace. It must have been ordered by Prime Minister Lin. Is he trying to ruin His Majesty's reputation, or is he using this to threaten His Majesty?

When Chu Lang got down and came back, Shen Ci was sitting on the bed, lost in thought.

Chu Lang glanced at him sideways, and approached him: "What are you thinking, sir?"

Shen Ci's thoughts were recalled by him, and he raised his eyes to look at him. The little emperor was wearing cumbersome court clothes and his expression was indifferent.

In a trance, he returned to his previous life.

Shen Ci looked at him motionlessly: "Your Majesty..."

Chu Lang didn't know what he was thinking of writing, so he raised his hand to the curtain crown, sat down on the side of the bed, picked up Shen Ci's robe, and went to check on his ankle injury.

The two gradually overlapping figures in front of Shen Ci's eyes were separated again and disappeared before his eyes.

Shen Ci took a deep breath and asked, "Your Majesty, did anything happen this morning?"

Chu Lang rubbed Shen Ci's feet with medicine, and said deliberately: "What do you mean, sir?"

Shen Ci: "President Lin."

Chu Lang smiled casually: "Sir, you are as good as you know. Prime Minister Lin did indeed bring up the matter of sending his daughter to the palace in the early court today. It means that I want to marry Lin Wanshuang as queen."

Shen Ci sneered: "Lin Xuanmo, an old fox, publicized that Lin Wanshuang saved you, and made this request in the early court, because he is determined to let his daughter enter the palace."

"Your Majesty, General Gu is asking to see you." Zhao Yin came in to report.

Chu Lang waved his hand: "Let him in."

When Gu Qing entered the inner room, he saw Chu Lang holding Shen Ci's feet and carefully kneading them, as if he was dealing with an extremely important thing, his eyes paused.

With his back turned to him, Chu Lang asked, "Have you found anything?"

Lu Qing held an arrow in his hand with a white feather on it, which was used by Youhu to assassinate them that day.

Gu Qingdao: "I chased the assassin to the city yesterday, there were many people, they disappeared for a while, only one assassin was chased, but he committed suicide, I checked the feather arrows in his hand, there are three white feathers."

"There are five white feathers on ordinary feathered arrows, but all the assassins use three. Da Chu seems to have no special record of who made this kind of feathered arrows."

Shen Ci said: "What if they just bought ordinary feather arrows to hide their eyes and ears, and then pulled out two white feathers?"

Lu Qing nodded: "I understand, let's investigate now."

Shen Ci called people back: "No need, someone will investigate this matter for us."

Chu Lang glanced at Shen Ci: "Sir, has a good plan?"

Shen Ci smiled: "It's not a good strategy, it's just that some people can't hold back."

He turned his head to Gu Qing and said: "General Gu, please send the feather arrow to a place tomorrow."
