After the Double Ninth Festival, the Prince Regent suddenly had to go away for a few days.The female accounting envoys packed his luggage for him, but they didn't dare to say anything, but they all looked reluctant to part with pear blossoms and rain.But he suddenly had an idea and asked Xiuqi to summon Zhuji.

Before going out, he asked Zhuji to serve him closely to change clothes and incense.Taking off the sachet and replacing it with new incense, Zhuji knelt at his feet, tied the tassels on the sachet, and lowered her head to figure out how to follow.

The regent travels very lightly, as if to avoid crowds, all of whom are his confidantes.She suspected that this time the regent's trip might be related to the treasures needed to control the river.

She was slightly lost in thought, but it was the Prince Regent who patted the top of her hair, his voice was mellow and seductive.

"Can't bear to be alone?"

Zhuji let out an "ah" and looked up at the regent with real surprise in her eyes.

The regent stared at her for a long while, his expression was a bit complicated.Then, seeming a bit angry, he took the sachet, tied it up by himself, turned around and strode away.

Because there is no special explanation, Zhuji's identity has not changed much.The female envoy of the inner court has been dissatisfied with her for many days, so in addition to incense in the regent's room every day, she also has an extra job of fuming insects on the books and scrolls in the warehouse.

Especially Xiu Qi, who seemed to have fallen out of favor. Although the other three had some conflicts at first, they seemed to have a strong rival so far. Knowing that Zhu Ji didn't have a bed attendant and was only on night duty, they huddled together to prepare for a rainy day.

There are so many objects in the warehouse over the years, it is hard to be careful if there are any bumps.Xiuqi and the others had no good intentions in sending such an errand to Zhuji. They deliberately framed Zhuji, and Zhuji couldn't defend against it several times in a row.Finally, they found a mistake of some sort, and they broke the lone book of the regent in the warehouse under the pretext, whipped three times with a rattan cane, and rushed to the nursery and stables, and asked her to grow flowers, weed the horses and feed the horses. .

The cane was stained with salt water, and Xiuqi let the other three hold her up viciously, and took off her clothes, leaving only a close-fitting tube top.The three whips lashed Zhuji's back, the skin was torn apart and bloodstained, this was still not enough, so she painted ink on the wound, and did not let her go until the ink dried up in the wound.

This pain was worse than what she had suffered on the island before, but Zhuji didn't want to show her martial arts skills, and she didn't want to create side effects, so she was very silent and didn't resist.She just disdained their low-handedness, glanced at them coldly, pulled up her clothes, turned and left.

Since she was sent to the lower court to do rough work, naturally she couldn't live in the house of the maids in the inner court.Zhuji lived alone in the small utility room next to the flower room of the nursery, and the bed was just a wooden board.

The wound was on the back, and she didn't have hot water, and she couldn't clean it with cold water.At night, he had a fever, dry mouth, and was about to get up groggyly. Hu felt a dark shadow in the dark night. He was immediately alert and his breathing changed slightly, but because he didn't know the identity of the other party, he didn't dare to expose it easily.

"I came here for a cup of tea, and you just realized it."

Zhuji let out a long breath, got up slowly, touched her forehead, took a spoonful of cold water from the water tank and drank it a few sips, the water spoon covered most of her face, only showing a pair of puzzled eyes, she asked inexplicably

"What are you doing, so... sneaky?"

They have been trained for a long time, and they can walk freely at night.Seeing that she was gulping down cold water despite having a fever, Runyu couldn't help frowning, took out a clean handkerchief, and said to her.

"Come here, let me clean the wound for you."

Zhuji was slightly surprised, and quickly waved her hand, but accidentally touched the wound, she let out a "hiss", took a breath, and whispered.

"No, it's good to keep it, and show it to the regent later, it won't be in vain."

Runyu snorted, pulled her over, and pressed her onto the wooden bed.An ambiguous "squeak" sound from the wooden planks echoed in the dark night.

"You still want to show him?" He looked a little angry, pulled away the clothes behind Zhuji, and immediately slapped his hands.In the darkness, the wound was still ferocious.

"Forget it. The regent originally went to Nanshan, but according to the latest spies, he has gone north secretly, and his whereabouts are unknown."

Zhuji felt that the wounds on her back had been carefully cleaned one by one, and she didn't know whether it was because her face was hot or the wounds were burning. She struggled to get up, but Runyu held her tightly.

"do not move!"

Zhuji felt that he was a bit fierce today, so she pursed her lips and did not speak.Runyu conjured a hawthorn out of nowhere and stuffed it into her mouth.

"The candied haws from Xiaoshantang."

Zhuji has a hawthorn in her mouth, this time it has passed the sugar coating, but it is still not the taste in memory.Just listen to him continue.

"If the ink is not clean and the wound festers, you won't be able to wait for him to come back to see it."

The wound was carefully cleaned over and over again. After the initial pain, she turned her head to look at Runyu's serious appearance. Although the disguised image was very different from his own, she also looked calm and handsome.She suddenly felt a little funny, but she was also a little groggy, and she whispered in a low voice while struggling with sleepiness.

"It's really all right, why should I sue them with a black suit. If I can take the place of the four of them because of this, I will be one step closer to the treasure map."

After sprinkling the powder, the wound was finally not so hideous and terrifying.Runyu helped her put on her clothes carefully, sighed, and said.

"He didn't come back so soon. Think about what to do with Ziludan's antidote in half a month."
