All of a sudden, a pot exploded inside and outside the door, and countless arrows rained down in Chu Xiao's direction. No one was in the mood to worry about Chu Xiao's escape. The regent quickly ordered people to defend against the enemy.

It is probably unheard of to encounter an attack near the imperial city. After all, the guards here are heavily guarded and there are forbidden soldiers everywhere. If they dare to assassinate here, the opponent must be well prepared.

Chu Xiao and Ming Changsu ran with him. On the eaves, someone had already been shot by an arrow, so Ming Changsu went over and drew out the soft sword on that person's body, and protected Chu Xiao behind him.

Facing the flying arrows, Ming Changsu reversed his wrist, and the soft sword drew lines in the air. Chu Xiao only saw an afterimage, and the last arrows fell to the ground, and some were cut in half.

Chu Xiao stared at Ming Changsu's back, and for the first time was sure that Ming Changsu also had kung fu.

It was too late to do anything at such a moment, and the regent on the ground was still calling for them to go down, so Ming Changsu put his arms around Chu Xiao's waist and brought them to the ground, allowing the regent and a pair of imperial guards to protect them.

Chu Xiao had been the emperor for so long, and it was indeed the first time he encountered an assassination situation. He looked calm on the surface, but he was already in a mess in his heart, but fortunately, he had foreseen the development of these things, and he did not lose his composure after all.

But when he thinks that if they go to the Kingdom of Shu, the days like this will only be more or less. Now that they are guarded by the Imperial Army of Chu and the Regent, what about the future? There are so many people protecting him.

The large army escorted them all the way into the hall, the range of the arrows was not that far, and it was almost safe to retreat to a certain place, so Chu Xiao relaxed.

Chu Xiao said: "Ah Xuan, thank you this time."

The regent's face was still ugly, he said: "As long as your Majesty doesn't run around, everything will be fine over there."

Chu Xiao said: "It's my fault..."

Before he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of a black figure not far away from the corner of his eye, and only heard a very slight "whoosh", Chu Xiao opened his mouth, but Ming Changsu had already stepped in front of him and pulled him into his arms .

When Chu Xiao heard the muffled groan above his head, he was startled and said, "Xiao Mingzi!"

Chu Xiao hugged Ming Changsu with his back, his fingertips were wet, and he also smelled a strong smell of blood, Chu Xiao's face turned pale immediately.

The regent seemed to be caught off guard by this, and hurriedly said: "There are assassins in the palace, search them immediately."

Others said: "Yes."

After the regent ordered, he squatted down and said to Chu Xiao, "Your Majesty."

Chu Xiao's eyes were red, he hugged Ming Changsu tremblingly, and said, "It's all me, it's all my fault..."

Seeing his appearance, the regent suddenly didn't know how to speak.

Holding Chu Xiao's hand with one hand, Chu Xiao paused, facing Ming Changsu's half-opened eyes, Ming Changsu said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to blame yourself, it's all voluntary by the slave."

The Regent looked at him.

After Ming Changsu said this, he passed out.

Chu Xiao couldn't help crying loudly.

After a hasty escape, Ming Changsu was injured and returned to the palace. No one expected such an ending.

In the hall, Chu Xiao had been sitting on the edge of the bed. The old imperial doctor checked Ming Changsu's pulse again and again, and confirmed again: "Your Majesty, Eunuch Ming is fine, and the arrow hasn't pierced a vital point. Your Majesty, don't worry."

Chu Xiao said: "Look again, if something is missing, what should I do?"

The old doctor had to make another diagnosis.

Seeing this, the regent frowned.

I don't know how long it took before Chu Xiao let the old doctor go back to get the medicine. The regent confirmed that Chu Xiao was fine and ordered a team to guard the palace, and he wanted to hunt down the entire imperial city to catch the assassin.

Before leaving, the regent stared at Chu Xiao, and sighed for a while: "Your Majesty, if only you cared half as much about your body as you did Ming Changsu."

Chu Xiao seemed to have never heard of it, and in fact he really couldn't hear it.

Such a big incident happened, Ming Changsu was injured for him under Chu Xiao's nose, it is impossible for him to have nothing wrong.

The imperial doctor said it was nothing serious, but Ming Changsu had been in a coma for quite a while, and he still had no signs of waking up. His complexion was very pale.

For as long as Ming Changsu was in a coma, Chu Xiao was also frightened for a long time.

Chu Xiao stared at Ming Changsu's face, and after a while he stretched out his hand and tightened the hand holding Ming Changsu.

As if feeling something, Ming Changsu's knuckles on the back of his hand moved slightly, Chu Xiao was overjoyed, and then Ming Changsu's eyelashes trembled, and before Chu Xiao could speak, a burst of pain came from the back of his neck. In pain, he passed out.

Ming Changsu opened his eyes and saw that Chu Xiao who was lying on the edge of the bed softened his eyes first, then moved slightly, and then saw the man kneeling beside the bed and said: "Get up."

He Xing said: "This subordinate deserves death."

Ming Changsu got up slightly, only then realized that his and Chu Xiao's hands were overlapping, and stretched out the other hand to pinch the back of Chu Xiao's hand.

Ming Changsu said: "Who ordered you to shoot that arrow?"

Crane Xing didn't answer, but still knelt respectfully.

Ming Changsu said: "You are the person next to me. I didn't realize it for a while, but you followed someone else."

He sneered and said, "I'm still not worthy of your service at all?"

Hearing this, He Xing kowtowed his head and said, "This subordinate deserves to die! Please punish me, my lord."

Ming Changsu coughed and said, "What is the punishment, am I still your prince?"

He Xing maintained this posture, Ming Changsu's eyes fell on Chu Xiao, he stretched out his hand to stroke Chu Xiao's hair and said, "Give him the antidote."

Crane said: "This..."

Ming Changsu said: "I don't want to repeat it a second time."

His words were clear, and his tone was a bit chillingly cold, and he didn't mean to be joking at all.

He Xing paused for a while, got up, took out a bottle from his sleeve, and poured out a pill.

Ming Changsu said: "Give it to me."

The crane travels all over to him.

Ming Changsu held the medicine and pinched Chu Xiao's jaw. Chu Xiao was in a coma and didn't know when it happened, so he could only let Ming Changsu's instinct to open his mouth.

After feeding the pill into his mouth, Ming Changsu held the back of Chu Xiao's head with one hand and his chin with the other, and looked at Chu Xiao face to face for a while.

Ming Changsu leaned very close, his eyes flicked across Chu Xiao's face inch by inch.

Ming Changsu said: "You can go."

The crane did not move.

Ming Changsu's cold voice came from the dragon bed, saying: "I won't repeat some words, you only have this one chance, don't make an exception, get lost."

The window in the hall was opened, and the black shadow flashed outside in an instant, leaving only a gust of wind behind.

It didn't know when it started to rain heavily outside the hall, crackling on the ground, and when the window was opened, the sound of the rain came into the hall and fell into Ming Changsu's ears.

Ming Changsu's slender fingers slid across Chu Xiao's side face, ears, eyebrows and eyes.

After all, he supported Chu Xiao's back of the head and jaw to open and close. Chu Xiao let out a "huh", rolled his Adam's apple, and swallowed the pill.

After doing this, Ming Changsu gently put down Chu Xiao's head, held Chu Xiao's hand and lay back down.

There was a lot of movement just now, Chu Xiao woke up in a daze, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Ming Changsu lying sideways and looking at him.

The moment Chu Xiao and him looked at each other, he was overjoyed and almost jumped up. He said, "Xiao Mingzi, you're awake—uh."

He clutched the back of his neck and tilted his neck.

Why does his neck hurt so much!

Chu Xiao twisted his neck, and Ming Changsu kept paying attention to his actions.

Chu Xiao didn't twist twice, obviously still excited, and said, "How is your health, Xiao Mingzi? Is it still hurting?"

Ming Changsu shook his head and said, "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine now."

As he said that, he was about to get up, but Chu Xiao hurriedly supported him and said, "Slow down."

Because Ming Changsu's arrow pierced a position that deviated from his heart, and the wound was quite deep. At that time, Chu Xiao saw that Ming Changsu was stabbed and his whole body was not well. Although Ming Changsu woke up now, Chu Xiao was still nervous.

Chu Xiao's nervousness was understood shortly after Ming Changsu woke up.

Seeing Chu Xiao busy here and there, and not knowing where to start, Ming Changsu's eyes softened, and he pulled Chu Xiao and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, I'm really fine."

Chu Xiao said, "I know, but it's only been a hundred days since you've been hurt."

Ming Changsu paused, and said: "Then, can Your Majesty lie down with me?"

So Chu Xiao got on the dragon bed, and after lying on the bed, Chu Xiao didn't dare to move around, and lay down in a regular manner, but Ming Changsu stretched out his hand to hold him in his arms.

Chu Xiao said: "Hey wait, you still have injuries."

Ming Changsu gave an "um" and still hugged him tightly.

Chu Xiao didn't dare to move, for fear of crushing Ming Changsu, but Ming Changsu relied on this and rested his chin on Chu Xiao's shoulder.

The warm breath pressed against his ears, Chu Xiao's ears were flushed, and the sandalwood on Ming Changsu's body was washed away by the smell of medicine, and the two were mixed together.

Chu Xiao now smells of Ming Changsu both on his body and in his breath.

Chu Xiao said: "Xiao Mingzi, aren't you tired like this?"

He straightened his back, and Ming Changsu didn't cling to him, but left some room for it. With such a distance, they wouldn't be able to maintain this posture easily.

Ming Changsu let him go after a while, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Chu Xiao shrank his neck and said, "Why, why did you suddenly thank me?"

Ming Changsu tucked up the quilt for him, and said, "I'm very happy."

Chu Xiao let him bury himself in the quilt, opened his eyes, blinked, but the next moment his eyes were as round as copper bells.

From his angle, he could see Ming Changsu's faint smile that hadn't dissipated yet.

Chu Xiao was indeed tired. Firstly, his body was already weak. Secondly, the night before he spent a whole day of tossing around, and he guarded Ming Changsu all night. Urging to rest.

After a while, I fell into a dream.

Chu Xiao has always been very clear about Ming Changsu's identity, but after getting along with him these days, he is even more unwilling to believe that Ming Changsu has other purposes by his side.

But at this moment, he dreamed of the siege.

In the original text, Ming Changsu stayed with the original owner and was tortured for three years. Ming Changsu escaped later.

When they meet, it must be the time of swords and swords.

From an onlooker's perspective, Chu Xiao saw Ming Changsu standing with a sword in his hand. His eyes were calm, and an army stood behind him. Opposite him, the original owner and the regent stood behind a group of people.

The two sides confront each other and fight immediately.

Not long after, blood flowed into the ground. Chu Xiao watched this scene, smelled the strong smell of blood and couldn't help shaking, and vomited out.

He vomited, and he woke up.

One hand grabbed his arm, stabilizing his figure.

Chu Xiao looked up and saw that Ming Changsu's clothes were half-faded, the bandage on his chest was much looser, and the smell of blood and medicine was mixed together, which was really unpleasant.

Chu Xiao frowned calmly.

There were only them in the palace, Ming Changsu said: "The medicine has just arrived, I let them go down first, Your Majesty, please rest first. I will go elsewhere to change."

After he finished speaking, he was about to turn around, and Chu Xiao grabbed his hand next and said, "Don't go."

Ming Changsu turned around, Chu Xiao stared at him and said, "Zhen, I will help you change."

The author says:

Xiao Mingzi, whose clothes are half faded...
