Blade of Wind

When I woke up the next day, my lower lip was still swollen.

The bitten place has stopped bleeding, but it is still very obvious.

The maids who waited for me to wash up were well-mannered, and they didn't look or ask too much, but there was obviously something wrong with their eyes.When Xiu Huang came in later, they looked at Xiu Huang more clearly.

From their point of view, my lip was bitten by someone. Obviously, Xiuhuang is the most suspected person. After all, in the public perception, Qilin are blood-sick guys. When they see blood, they will feel dizzy and weak. Why? Maybe do it yourself?

...Speaking of which, this one in my family is really different.

Xiu Huang also saw the bitten wound on my lip at a glance, and frowned slightly.

I sneered and said, "I accidentally bit it myself."

Xiu Huang didn't expose me directly, he responded and went back to the room to get the ointment.

I thanked him and reached for the medicine, but he stopped me, dragged me to sit down, and picked up a small piece of ointment to help me apply it.

"I can..." Before I finished speaking, he pinched my chin, so I obediently shut my mouth and let him help me with the medicine.

The ointment is cool and has a light fragrance.It seemed to be the taste of fruit, I couldn't help sticking out the tip of my tongue and licked it lightly.

Xiu Huang frowned and looked at me wryly, "Master..."

... Well, I also know that this behavior is too childish, so I had to smile again and shut my mouth obediently.

"My lord, are you hungry to this extent?" Xiu Huang put away the ointment, and still did not forget to tease me, "Although this medicine is not a big problem if you swallow it by mistake, you still can't take it casually."

It's all because he has nothing to do to make the medicine so fragrant, and it's not sugar, so why bother.

But such an argument would only make him feel more ridiculous. Fortunately, Gong Guo's waiter came over and said breakfast was ready. I quickly responded, got up and went downstairs.

Xiu Huang didn't laugh at me anymore, and quietly followed behind me.

When I was young, Ah Ao also came down, and when he greeted me, his eyes swept over my lips naturally, but he didn't look guilty at all, instead he was very proud.

... What a ghost!

I put on a straight face and was about to scold someone, but Xiu Huang smiled first and said: "For the sake of Taifu's health, it's better to only be a vegetarian."

A Ao stared back at him, Xiu Huang didn't flinch, and continued to say softly: "Although it is not serious, but the Lord's injury is always my responsibility in the end."

A Ao stared at him for a long while, but didn't say anything, turned his head and sat down to eat his own breakfast.

Although last night, Ah Ao was still complaining about Xiuhuang, and said that he should not worry too much about his thoughts, but... What is the reason for this scene this morning?

I sighed a little wearily.

Since we were not an official visit, Zhu Jing arranged to meet us only after the court meeting.

After we had breakfast and rested for a while, we were led to the inner palace by the reception officials.

Walking to the flower hall, before entering, I heard Zhujing admonishing people.

"What the hell are you thinking? How is it possible to reduce taxes? The refugees in Fangguo have not yet left, and there are demons appearing on the border of Liu. If our treasury is not prepared to be more abundant, how can we cope? You are so old Don’t you think about it? Is a creature like a unicorn just made of straw bags and tears?”

The little girl's crisp voice was full of air.The officials who led us seemed to have been used to it for a long time, and they didn't take it seriously at all. They smiled and made a "come in" gesture to us.

The corners of Ah Ao's eyes twitched a few times, "So she scolded her famous person like that?"

I patted him on the shoulder, "Look, do you know how good I am to you?"

Ah Ao responded twice with a black line on his head, and walked into the flower hall with me.

Zhujing sat there drinking tea, and Gongqi stood beside her.

Although they are said to be brothers born from the same tree, these unicorns really have their own advantages and disadvantages in appearance.There are cold-faced handsome guys like Jing Qi, and there are also beautiful and handsome ladies like Yan Qi. This Gong Qi really has the face of a farmer uncle. If it weren't for his blond hair, he would definitely not have any sense of disobedience when he was thrown into the field.Although he was scolded just now, Gong Qi didn't seem to mind at all, and still had a simple and honest smile on his face.

I am a junior, so even if Zhu Jing looks like a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, I have to bow to her obediently and wait for her to speak first.

Although I was troubled for a long time last night, what attitude and how to talk to Zhu Jing today, but in fact, I think this kind of trouble is completely superfluous.

Probably Zhujing's anger today has almost vented on Gongqi, and she didn't make things difficult for me.Just casually asking me about the purpose of coming to Gongguo and the current situation of Fangguo.

I came here specially to thank her, so naturally I had already prepared my speech.Although I'm not very interested in state affairs, I was filled in by Yuexi and Taishi's cramming education, and there was Ao, who could add in time.Therefore, there were questions and answers in this meeting, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.It wasn't until Zhujing asked about our "issue of national debt" that there was a disagreement.

"Aren't you gambling with the future of the country?" The little girl frowned, disapproving.

"Yes." I admitted frankly, "but if we don't take a gamble, we can't even make it through the present, so where is the future?"

"It's too short-sighted to only focus on today. How can we guarantee the long-term stability of a country?"

"So didn't I just say that? If the people of Fangguo starve to death, how can there be long-term peace and stability? Even if we can be taken in by neighboring countries for a short period of time, how long can you support us? So it is still your own internal funds. The deployment is better, everyone knows that what they are eating now is the future of their own country, maybe they will work harder instead."

With this kind of difference in concept, no one will be able to convince anyone for a while, and the facts are more convincing.Both Zhujing and I understand this, so we didn't dwell on this issue all the time. In short, we will know the conclusion after a few years.

But talking for such a long time in a row still made my mouth a little dry. I didn't notice that the tea on the table had just been rebrewed, so I took a sip when I picked it up, but I was so hot that I stick out my tongue and inhale.

Zhu Jing laughed out loud, even Gong Qi couldn't help laughing.

My younger brother sighed, and said in a low voice, "It's rare to have the posture of a monarch just now."

...but can I blame it?

I frowned and found that Zhujing was looking at my mouth.

The swelling where A Ao had bitten before had not subsided so quickly, so it became more obvious when it was so hot.I think Zhu Jing must have seen it a long time ago, but due to her status and we are not familiar with each other, she can't say anything.At this time, I was scalded by the tea, so I looked at it unscrupulously.

I was about to explain that I accidentally bit it, when she glanced at Xiu Huang standing behind me with a complicated expression.

...Well, from morning until now, everyone seems to think that it was made by Xiu Huang.It seems that Xiuhuang's scapegoat is definitely behind him.

Xiu Huang herself didn't seem to mind too much, she stood with her hands down and her eyebrows pleasing to the eye, unmoved by those strange eyes at all.

"It's nice to be young." Zhu Jing suddenly said with emotion.

I don't know how to answer the phone.

Although I know that she is an old monster over a hundred years old, but...she looks like a little LOLI no matter how you look at her, so it's too strange to say such words all of a sudden.

Zhu Jing herself didn't notice this at all, and continued: "At first, the King of Haike and the young queen were not common. But recently, two queens of Haike suddenly appeared, both teenage girls. They also implemented the New Deal in a big way as soon as they came up. It's really interesting."

The other sea guest queen she was talking about was obviously Yoko Nakajima, Prince Qing.From what I know of the story, I quite admire her.But when Zhu Jing said "really interesting", I couldn't tell whether it was a compliment or a derogation.

Before I could speak, Zhu Jing laughed again, "They always said that the reign of the young queen would not last long, I wonder if you two can surprise people?"

... the young queen will not rule for long?

I frowned slightly. It seemed that when I was watching animations, those old ministers of the Qing Kingdom also said things like "the queen is not good", right?

"Why?" I couldn't help asking.

"Our lord has no other intention," Gong Qi explained with a smile, "it's just that there are always some people who worry that the young king will be too emotional."

I asked: "Everyone will be emotional, why do you only say 'Young Queen'?"

Zhu Jing snorted, "It's specifically referring to things like 'love'. You idiot."

I froze.

Zhujing didn't explain either, she asked if we had nothing else to say, and went back to work after explaining.

I still sat at the table in the flower hall without moving, feeling a little heavy.

In fact, she doesn't need to explain too much, Prospect King is a ready-made example.It is indeed not uncommon for a woman to become an idiot when she falls in love. When such a woman controls the state machine, it does not seem to be a good thing.

Ah Ao patted me on the shoulder lightly, "Don't worry about them, we will definitely live longer than them."

I was speechless.

I hope so.

After taking a bath at night, Xiu Huang came over to help me apply the medicine.

"Actually, you don't have to come here so hard, just leave the medicine behind, and I can do it myself." I said.

Xiu Huang gently applied the ointment on my lips, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid the Lord will secretly eat it."

...I really can't let these guys get a little bit of a handle.

After applying the medicine, Xiuhuang didn't leave directly, but slightly lifted my chin to take a closer look, "Taifu is really good at talking. Are you guys getting into trouble again?"

"Uh...not anymore." I blushed slightly, and coughed lightly, "Well, I'm sorry, it seems that everyone misunderstood today. I'm really sorry for letting you take the blame..."

Before I finished speaking, Xiu Huang lowered his head and kissed my lips.

Gentle and tender, affectionate.

"This way it won't be considered a scapegoat." He said, then licked my lips eagerly, and frowned slightly, "It's really sweet."

What he said was ointment, I was stupid for a moment, and followed in a daze, "Really?"

Xiu Huang burst out laughing, pinched my chin, kissed me again, and bit my lips lightly.

Just biting on the original wound, I gasped in pain.

This guy definitely did it on purpose.

...It's bloody again, what's going on with these guys one by one?Are they all vampires?
