Ten thousand people think gloom is reborn

"His Royal Highness, be careful."

I turned my head when I heard the sound, and saw the prince standing behind me.Although Niu Xi was good at martial arts, he didn't dare to attack the prince rashly.

The prince seems to have arrived at the Huxin Palace later, I saw him going to salute the emperor and queen from a distance, but I didn't expect him to leave too.

"Your brother is going back early? Then let's go together." The prince sat down beside me.

Normally, I would still want to argue with the prince, telling him not to squeeze into a boat with me, but now I am really not in the mood.

Just making myself ignore the water on the side has consumed all my mind, and I still dare not let the prince find out that I am afraid of water, so I can only pretend not to care and sit down on the twig.

Not long after the boat started, the prince spoke to me.

"Why did my brother leave without finishing the play?"

The hands in my sleeves were already clenched into fists, and I tried my best to endure the fear, "I feel uncomfortable, I want to go back first."

"Oh." The prince suddenly stretched out his hand to my forehead, "What's uncomfortable?"

I dodged immediately, and when I dodged, I heard the loud sound of water around me, and my face turned pale.I quickly pinched my fingers into the meat, tried my best to calm my voice and said, "I'm a little dizzy, it's nothing serious, thank you, Brother Prince, for your concern."

The prince stared at me for a moment, then withdrew his hand and said to the eunuch who was rowing the boat, "Go faster." Then he said to me, "Then brother, remember to call the imperial doctor to see it later."

The speed of the boat became faster, and the sound of the surrounding water became louder. I don't know if it was my illusion or what, but I felt that the shaking of the boat became louder.

I couldn't help but secretly grabbed the scorpion under my body, and suddenly, there was a strange sound of water breaking.

Before I could take a closer look at what the black figure emerging from the water was, someone had already pulled it off.The sound of a sword piercing into my body and the eunuch's screams sounded beside my ears at the same time. I shook uncontrollably. Ambergris.

The boat we took was not big, because the prince was with me, so I only brought Niu Xi and another palace attendant, and the prince also brought two attendants.

All of a sudden, the sound of clashing swords continued, and besides that, I heard the sound of falling into the water.The boat we were in was shaking more and more due to the fight, and now the boat is in the middle of the lake. Even if the patrolling guards discovered the scene on the lake, they did not arrive so quickly.

The situation seemed to be getting more and more dangerous. The prince, who had been hugging me all this time, let go of me. Although he didn't have a weapon in his hand, he could fight an assassin with his bare hands.I was pulled by him and stood behind me. On Niu Xi's side, he faced two black-clothed assassins alone, unable to tell who they were, to protect me.

The two assassins who were fighting with the prince seemed to realize that I was completely incapable of martial arts. They looked at each other, and the weapon that stabbed the prince suddenly turned and slashed towards me.I stepped back quickly, and at the same time, the prince kicked one of the assassin's weapons away, but he was too late to respond to the attack of the other assassin, so he blocked it with his arm in an emergency.

The dagger immediately pierced into the flesh, and with one successful blow, the assassin pulled out the dagger and stabbed it into the prince's waist and abdomen. The prince couldn't help but retreat a few steps due to the pain, but at this moment, the assassin whose weapon was kicked off kicked the prince into the water .

When I saw the prince falling into the water, I instinctively stretched out my hand to pull him.

"Ninth Prince, be careful!"

Niu Xi shouted from behind me.

I turned around in horror, and saw the assassin who had stabbed the prince attacking me again. In a panic, I touched the long sword that was kicked away by the prince before. Stab the man in the chest.

Blood splattered all over my face.

I stared blankly at the assassin with fierce eyes falling on his back, and Niu Xi found that I was not in a good position, so he desperately came to me regardless of the danger of his life. He grabbed several assassins at the same time, and used his body weight as an attack to bring them into the water together.

"Niu Xi!" I yelled, seeing Niu Xi emerging from the water, I felt a little more at ease.Those assassins were still fighting him in the water, and at this time only me and the corpse were left on the boat.

I gritted my teeth, forced myself not to be afraid, and turned around to pull the prince up.I had been holding the prince's arm with one hand just now, and now he is holding the side of the boat with one hand, and I am pulling it with the other hand, his face is pale from the injury.

"Hold tight... my hand, I'll pull you up." I couldn't control the trembling in my voice, and as I pulled the prince, my eyes inevitably touched the water surface at close range.As soon as I saw the water, I remembered the night when I died tragically in the water.

Countless waters drilled into my body, I couldn't breathe, and my chest became more and more uncomfortable.

The prince seemed to notice something was wrong with me, he frowned and said: "Forget it, you live well." After speaking, he seemed to let go.

I couldn't help shaking my head, and grabbed his hand with both hands, "No... okay, I can pull you up."

I exerted all my strength, but it was still in vain. Seeing that the prince's face became paler and paler, and there was no movement from Niu Xi, I finally couldn't help crying helplessly, with tears in my eyes: "Is there anyone here? People, save people!"

At that moment, the eyes of the prince who was struggling to hold on to the side of the boat seemed to change, and it might be my illusion, because the next moment his hand lost strength, and his body slid down. Gravity is unstable and falls into the water.

I fell into the water again, as if returning to that hopeless nightmare, no one could save me, and I couldn't save myself.

Just as my body kept sinking, a hand suddenly wrapped around my waist and led me to swim to the surface of the water.

The moment the water broke through, I saw the face in front of me clearly.

The face that had always been smiling now lost its expression, and it was rarely serious.

The prince didn't look at me, he took me to swim to the shore, and the boat capsized.After a short period of daze, I hugged the prince silently.

Autumn is cold, and the water is even worse.I was so cold that my teeth were chattering, and I couldn't stop taking a deep breath.Maybe it was my breath falling on the side of the prince's neck, which made him displeased, he frowned and looked at me, then turned his face away and continued to swim forward.

Finally, the imperial guards found us, and they jumped into the water one after another to save us.When they approached, I quickly let go of the prince, not wanting to aggravate his injury.

But when I was hugged by the Royal Forest Army, my arm was pulled.

Is the prince.

He held my hand but didn't say anything. When he saw me looking at him, he let go of my hand indifferently, as if nothing happened.

I didn't pay attention to what the prince was thinking, I asked the Yulin army to save people quickly, Niu Xi and the others didn't know whether it was life or death.

The assassination of me and the prince caused the emperor to be furious. The palace officials were able to sneak into the assassins. Not only was the commander of the imperial forest army dismissed, but he was also punished fifty times. It is said that when he was carried back, his lower body was covered in blood.

Not only the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, but also many people on duty that day were punished.There were no marks on the clothes of the assassin's corpses, and their origins could not be found for a while.

It is said that the situation of the prince is not very good, and I fell ill when I came out of the water, and I woke up and fell asleep again and again, and woke up again and again.It's been three days since I fully woke up.

Concubine Zhuang took care of me by my bedside for three days, and she lost a lot of weight. When she saw me wake up, she burst into tears of joy, "Baby, Congxi, you finally woke up." She turned to call the imperial physician, "Emperor physician, please look Look at Congxi."

"Concubine Zhuang Gui, don't worry, I will see the Ninth Prince right now."

The imperial doctor standing not far from the bed put three fingers on my wrist, and I was in a daze for a while, and then I gradually remembered what happened before.

"Mother Concubine, Niu Xi and the others..." I asked feebly.

Concubine Zhuang smiled at me, "Niu Xi is fine, but the injury is a little serious. Concubine Mother invited the imperial doctor to see him, don't worry."

Concubine Zhuang only mentioned Niu Xi, and I knew in my heart that most of the other palace people were in danger.

The imperial doctor said that I will be fine when I wake up. I have been sick for the past few days because of evil winds entering my body, and I was overly frightened. He will prescribe some medicine for calming my mind and mind.

Concubine Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words. After the imperial physician left, I asked the second thing I wanted to know.

"Is the prince okay?" I remember that the prince and I were rescued by the Imperial Forest Army. He seemed to pass out not long after, and the wounds on his arms and chest and abdomen were white with blisters, which was very frightening.

"The prince woke up earlier than you, but the waist and abdomen are seriously injured, and he can't get out of bed yet." Concubine Zhuang Gui was afraid that my overthinking would affect herself instead, so she advised me not to think about other people and things, and to take care of myself first. good.

I nodded sullenly, but as soon as I closed my eyes, I saw the black-clothed assassin being stabbed in the chest and falling down. His blood was hot and splashed on my face.

My body trembled uncontrollably, fearing that Concubine Zhuang would find out, I hurriedly turned sideways, but I smelled a faint familiar smell of medicine.I was taken aback, and pulled the doll on my bed to my nose to smell it carefully.

There was indeed Lin Chongtan's medicinal scent on the doll.

He has been here?

How could he come in and out of my bedroom casually?

He...has been lying beside me for a long time?How could there be his medicinal scent on the doll?

I couldn't help getting up and asking Concubine Zhuang, "Concubine Mother, has anyone come these days?"

Concubine Zhuang saw me sitting up, her face turned pale with fright, "Why are you sitting in such a hurry? Hurry up, lie down—other people? Except for your father and your brothers these days, only the usual The servants and the imperial physician have been here. What's the matter?"

I frowned, thinking something was wrong, I grabbed the doll and sniffed it carefully.Concubine Zhuang watched me smell it, and she came closer to smell it, and then said: "You have been sick and drank so much medicine these days, and it has a smell on it. Well, don't be so precious to this doll, it will lose its smell when you wash it gone."

Maybe I smelled it wrong and mistook the smell of medicine on my body as that of Lin Chongtan.

But I was in a panic and asked the palace servants to clean the doll for me right now.

I stayed sick for a few more days, and after my spirits improved, I went to see Niu Xi first.Niu Xi was stabbed several times in his body, but fortunately he was physically strong, so he saved his life.

When Niu Xi saw me coming, she wanted to get up from the bed and salute me.I quickly supported him, "You don't need to get up, just take care of him, and tell Mu Tong if you need anything."

Like Niu Xi, Mu Tong is the one who waits by my side, because he is quick in his hands and feet and can take care of others, so I specially asked him to come and take care of Niu Xi.

Niu Xi has always had no expression on his face, but when he heard me say this, he showed a reserved face, "Thank you Ninth Prince."

"It's not you thanking me, it should be me thanking you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have died long ago. Take care of your wounds and don't rush to my side to serve you." I stayed with Niu Xi for a while, seeing his tiredness, then Leave Mutong to take good care of him.

After watching Niu Xi, I asked someone to go to the East Palace with a gift.

When I first arrived at the East Palace, I found out that the queen was there.

The nanny who was serving the queen had sharp eyes, she saw me and called the Ninth Prince directly, which made me unable to leave first, so I could only bite the bullet and go in to greet the queen.

The queen was sitting next to the prince's bed, and when she heard me coming in, her eyes slowly turned to me. She remained silent for a long time, and I could only maintain the posture of saluting.

"Mother's queen." The prince's weak voice came from the bed tent.

At this moment, the queen said gracefully: "Let's get down, why is the Ninth Prince here? Isn't he also sick?"

I bowed my head and replied, "I have been in better health for the past two days, and I want to come and see the elder brother of the prince. Since the empress is here and Feng En takes care of him, the elder brother of the prince must be fine, so I will leave first, so as not to disturb the elder brother of the prince recuperating. .”

"You stay." The queen called me, "I'm afraid Chao'er's ears are callused after listening to Ben Gong talking about it these days. He doesn't like to hear it, and Ben Gong doesn't like to talk about it. Fate. Hey, talk to you two brothers, I have to go to Enhua Temple to copy Buddhist scriptures."

I heard what the queen meant, she was dissatisfied with the prince saving me.That day, there were not a few imperial guards who saw the prince holding me in Fushui, and I was unscathed. The prince had two wounds, and people with discerning eyes could naturally see the problem.

I have no excuse, I can only watch the Queen leave.

After a few breaths, there was a coughing sound from behind the bed curtain.

I turned to look at the bed, thought about it, and walked over.The prince was sitting on the bed at this moment, with his crown untied, he was originally a man and a woman, but now he looked more like a woman.

I thought he was dying, but it wasn't.He saw me and blinked at me.
