Chapter 6 Awakening
Shu Yao had a nightmare all night.

After a while dreaming of tonight's scene, Xie Yanzhou looked at her absent-mindedly, with a strange expression she had never seen before; Shu Ningyou covered her lips and moaned coquettishly, but she couldn't hide the gloating in her eyes.

After a while, he dreamed of a strange picture again. Armored troops poured into the imperial city, she was escorted to the city wall, and everyone was looking at her wantonly with frivolous and affectionate eyes, as if she was already in their pocket.

"This is the Princess Huaxi."

"The golden branches and jade leaves pampered by the royal family are indeed beautiful. Even the hair is beautiful. I don't know if I can be honored when I sit on the couch?"

"Tch! If I could hear the little princess scold 'presumptuous', I'd be a ghost."

"What a pity, what a pity."

More and more voices surrounded Shu Yao, her hands were handcuffed behind her back, her eyes were full of tears, but her back did not bend halfway.

Someone behind said: "Soldiers, please take a look, this is Princess Huaxi."

Shu Yao's shrill voice was too familiar.This is Zhang Sheng, the chief eunuch next to my uncle, who has followed my uncle for many years and watched Shu Yao grow up.

Zhang Sheng ordered someone to put her on the city wall?
How could it be him?
Shu Yao was extremely surprised, she wanted to turn around but couldn't move.She could only watch helplessly as she walked towards the city wall step by step, with a big knife in front of her.

Zhang Sheng said indifferently: "Today, the blood of Princess Huaxi will be sacrificed to heaven—"

"call out!"

A long arrow came through the air and pierced Zhang Sheng's throat.There was smoke everywhere, and Shu Yao was wrapped tightly in a strong and cold embrace.

The smell of blood filled her nose, and she was led to jump off the tower.

……

Shu Yao sat up from the bed.

His face was sticky, and when he touched it with his hand, there were dry tears.

Pine Needles worriedly handed over the Soothing Soup, "Princess, it's just brewed, drink it while it's hot."

She thought Shu Yao was mad at Qin Yanghou, and she was depressed all night.But Shu Yao knew in her heart that her tears were not from anger, but from fright.

Shu Yao suddenly asked, "When will uncle come back?"

"Your Majesty is already on his way back to Beijing, it should be soon," Songzhen comforted, "If you miss Your Majesty, you can write a letter to His Majesty and send the imperial guards to deliver it."

Shu Yao thought it was a good idea.

The Haitang Courtyard where she lives has its own small kitchen.She had a bad fight with Shu Jing yesterday, so she didn't want to see him.

After lunch, Shu Yao spread out the paper and began to think about yesterday's dream.

The dream was so weird that Shu Yao had to start to wonder if her dream was some kind of omen.

When Zhang Sheng was with his uncle, he was still the prince.It can be said that he is a confidant cultivated by his uncle.His uncle trusted him so much, why did Zhang Sheng betray his uncle and put her on the tower?

Who was the one who saved her?Is it the same domineering man I dreamed about a few days ago?Could it be that there was more than one nightmare haunting her?
Shu Yao bit her pen and thought about it, always feeling that this matter needs to be discussed in the long run.If she wrote "Be careful of Zhang Sheng" directly on the paper, my uncle would definitely think that she was having a temper tantrum.

By the way, Shu Yao remembered that it was Zhang Sheng's suggestion to send her to the Marquis of Qinyang's residence for a short stay.

After thinking for a long time, what I could write was nothing more than complaining about the poor living in Qinyanghou's mansion, and expressing my miss for my uncle. Shu Yao threw away the pen and lay on the table boneless, sighing melancholy. Take a breath.

Chunrui saw it, and thought she had to tell His Majesty more, and stop sending the Princess here.The princess lives in the Marquis of Qinyang's mansion. She can't eat well or sleep well. She sighs every day, and her chin is sharpened a lot. What should I do?

"The princess!"

Pine Needles came in in a hurry, bringing a new message, "Princess, the gentleman of the Li family has woken up."

Shu Yao raised her head.

Coincidentally, Songzhen went to pick up the lychees sent by Princess Ruyang yesterday. On the way, she heard two servants discussing that the gentleman who was rescued yesterday woke up this morning.

Shu Yao was getting annoyed, so she was going to go to Liluoyuan to relax.

The Hou Mansion occupies a very large area, with Haitang Courtyard and Liluo Courtyard at the east and west ends, and the servants carried Shu Yao to Liluo Courtyard on soft sedan chairs.

There was only one young man sweeping the floor in front of the yard, and he recognized that it was Shu Yao's soft sedan chair, so frightened that he couldn't even hold the broom, he hurriedly saluted: "See you, see the princess!"

Pine Needle and Chun Rui accompanied Shu Yao from left to right, and pushed open the courtyard door for her.

The area of ​​Liluoyuan is not big, and you can almost see the end at a glance.There are promenades on all sides, surrounded by a tall pear tree, the sound of the tree is rustling, and the sun is setting.

Dressed in white clothes, straight shoulders, and a pear blossom branch tightly held with slender and cold fingers, it was the young man.

The pear blossom branch was in his hand, like a sharp sword covered in blood, with every move, every move showed the killing intent.The flower branches set off a strong wind in the air, and the young man raised his cold eyes and looked at Shu Yao.

Almost at the moment when they looked at her, the danger and gloom disappeared.The pear branch in his hand fell to the ground, and Li Mingji knelt down, with a hoarse voice: "Princess."

It's an uncommon title, but he can taste a bit of beauty when he bites the words.

If the spring is just right at this moment, the pear blossoms are in full bloom, matching the youth, and the white clothes are dusty, it will be a pleasing scene.

Shu Yao likes good-looking people.

When I was young, I was willing to play with Xie Yanzhou only because Xie Yanzhou was the prettiest among those little kids.

"You...don't be polite," Shu Yao was used to being respected by others, but Li Mingji's injuries were still related to her. Kneeling in front of her like this, she felt uncomfortable anywhere, and raised her chin slightly. "The injury is so serious, who wants you to kneel down to the princess?"

Songzhen and Chunrui immediately winked at the servants and told them to help Li Mingji up.

But Li Mingji refused the servant, and just bent his long legs, knelt in front of Shu Yao with a straight back, "It is hard to repay a life-saving favor. Mingji was plotted against by someone that day, if the princess hadn't rescued him, Ming Ji has already lost his life."

His voice was as lingering as a clear spring, falling on Shu Yao's heart.

Looks good and sounds good too.

The person was brought back by Mrs. Pan in response to her. Li Mingji opened his mouth to say "thank you for saving my life", and Shu Yao felt a little guilty.But after thinking about it, if it wasn't for her, Mrs. Pan would not have called for someone to save him.

As compensation, she will send someone to the palace to invite the imperial physician later, so that Li Mingji can be cured as soon as possible.

Shu Yao cleared her throat, no longer obsessed with getting Li Mingji to get up, and changed the subject: "What were you doing just now? Do you know martial arts?"

Li Mingji said humbly: "It's such a small skill, the princess laughed at me."

Shu Yao also felt that she was delusional.

Just now she was standing in front of the door, the wind blowing was obviously extremely powerful.But Li Mingji is so weak and seriously injured, how can he get so much strength?

She glanced suspiciously at the pear blossom branch at Li Mingji's feet: "Then what about this flower branch, did you break it off?"

Li Mingji's voice was gentle: "I picked it up in the flower garden."

That's right.

Seeing that Li Mingji was still kneeling, Shu Yao frowned, and ordered: "Help him into the house. Chunrui, please say hello and ask the palace to send two imperial physicians over."

She took the initiative to speak, and Li Mingji put his hands on the ground and stood up slowly.Shu Yao showed satisfaction, and the next moment, the young man pursed his thin lips slightly, closed his eyes tightly, and fell straight towards her!
