Chapter 44: Grace

Mu Lan was a little nervous at first, but when she saw the embarrassment flashing across Dong Lingjue's face, she wanted to laugh again.Does he have moments of embarrassment?For a moment, she didn't even bother to think deeply about the brief charm that lingered between the two of them just now.

However, her dizzy mind couldn't allow her to laugh, besides, she had already made up her mind to have a good relationship with him, at this time, it was even better to pretend to be stupid.

"Why am I here?" Her voice sounded powerful, perhaps because of the cold and exhaustion before.

"The imperial doctor said that you were poisoned." Dong Ling never hid it from her, but when he looked at her again, there was doubt in his eyes, and he said, "You woke up very quickly."

Nonsense, if she doesn't wake up, he still doesn't know what to do to her.He knew that he was not a good person, she was the victim, yet he still doubted her?

She couldn't help but feel angry, and Mulan's tone became cold, "It seems that the emperor was disappointed that he was not poisoned to death."

Dong Lingjue was taken aback, did he still have the energy to lose his temper with him?It seemed that she was fine.Then he said: "I'm just a little confused, why, hearing your tone, do you still want to be angry with me?"

"I..." Mu Lan was about to argue, but she felt a dizzy pain in her head, which made her frown tightly.

Seeing that her face was waxy and painful, the lines on Dong Lingjue's face became less cold and hard. He reached out to brush her forehead and asked, "What's wrong?"

Mu Lan didn't want to pay attention to him at first, but the warm palm pressed against her forehead gave people an indescribable warmth.Seeing that the concern in his eyes didn't seem fake, she replied grumpily, "Headache."

Dong Lingjue looked at her, then suddenly moved his hand to her temple, put the other hand up, rubbed her lightly, and asked, "How about this?"

He... What is he doing?Mu Lan was very flattered, she remembered that they haven't settled down yet, right?Moreover, he was still doubting her just now, why is he suddenly being so nice to her now?

After much deliberation, Mu Lan couldn't think of his intentions for doing this. It couldn't be that Dong Ling was definitely an abusive m, right?After being beaten, I felt very refreshed, so there was a 360-degree change in my attitude towards her?

"What, it hurts more?" Seeing her frown tightened, and her eyes becoming vigilant towards him, Dong Ling couldn't help but stop.

"No." Mu Lan shook her head hastily.

She didn't ignore the displeased expression on his face, the joke, the majestic king of a country personally massaged her, if she still disliked him, then she was really impatient.

"Hmm...can you knead for a while longer?" Seeing that he didn't move, Mu Lantian asked with a straight face.Not to mention, this guy uses his hand strength very well, not light or heavy, but it can really relieve some pain.

Dong Lingjue's face turned dark, but miraculously he didn't say anything, he gently pressed his fingertips, and rubbed her again.

Mu Lan simply closed her eyes, enjoying the emperor-style massage, her heart suddenly fluttered.Thinking of her passing through this scene, she finally felt a little bit like the protagonist at this moment.Tang Lingjue personally massaged her. This should be a treatment that few people can enjoy, right?During this period of time, he was a cow and a horse, and now he has finally turned into a serf and sang.

"When you're proud, it's best not to write your expression on your face." That would give him the urge to throw her out.Dong Ling never said the last sentence, but the cold voice was enough to make Mu Lan fall from the clouds to the bottom in an instant.

Opening his eyes, he saw Dong Ling Jue was looking at her with a displeased face.The strange thing is that even though he had a stern face, the movements of his hands did not stop.

Does she have an expression of enjoyment?This person is really awkward, he treats people nicely, but at the same time puts on this bad face.

However, she suddenly discovered that this kind of Dong Ling Jue was rather childish and cute. [

Seeing her staring at him playfully, Dong Lingjue narrowed his phoenix eyes, and ordered softly: "Close your eyes."

This time, Mu Lan was very cooperative and closed her eyes obediently.

/>

He leaned slightly and was very close to her, and she was gradually familiar with the unique cold fragrance on his body.It was the first time that when he was so close to her, what she felt was not threat and guard, but a touch of peace of mind, and a trace of inexplicable joy.

"My lord, the medicine is ready." After an unknown amount of time, when Mu Lan was about to fall asleep, Wu Yong's voice came through the curtain.

Only then did Dong Lingjue withdrew his hand and said, "Bring it in."

Mu Lan opened her eyes reluctantly, and Wu Yong had come to the bed with a bowl of dark Chinese medicine.

"Drink the medicine." Dong Ling never gave her a chance to struggle, with just one look, Xuan Bing Xuansu stepped forward to help her up.

Probably knowing her identity, Xuan Bingxuansu also became somewhat respectful towards her, and carefully stuffed the pillow behind her back, letting her sit up.

Ever since she was a child, Mu Lan was most afraid of taking medicine, especially traditional Chinese medicine.But seeing Dong Lingjue staring at her with commanding eyes, as if he was ready to force her down anytime she said not to drink, he had no choice but to hold up the medicine bowl heroically.

The pungent smell of Chinese medicine made her wrinkle her nose, but she couldn't get it out of her mouth. Dong Lingjue finally couldn't stand it, and said, "Drink it obediently. You will be allowed to go with me next month's Qiushou."

Mu Lan was about to grit her teeth and fight, her eyes lit up when she heard what he said, "Qiu Shou? Are you talking about going out of the palace?"

I also felt that I was too excited, so I quickly restrained myself.But, if you can go out of the palace... Just thinking about it, Mu Lan also feels energetic.

Dong Lingjue snorted coldly when he saw it, "If you don't drink the medicine while it's still hot, you will end up with some kind of disease, and then you won't be able to go anywhere."

Now, Mu Lan didn't hesitate anymore, she closed her eyes, picked up the bowl and started to drink.

By the time the bowl of medicine was finished, Mu Lan was already bitter from mouth to heart.But when he thought of being able to leave the palace, he felt it was worth it, and when he was happy, he looked up at Dong Lingjue, feeling something was wrong.

"Your Majesty...you, why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?" This was not quite like the Dong Ling Jue she knew.

The corners of Dong Ling Jue's lips twitched, and he said flatly, "Why, you've been in the palace for so long, haven't you figured it out yet?"

"Understand what?" Mu Lan only felt that today's Dong Lingjue made her feel a little overwhelmed.

"Since you stepped into the land of Western Chu, your wealth, honor and disgrace in this life have been tied to me." Dong Lingjue said with a familiar evil smile on his face, "In addition to being attached to me, you There is no other choice."

Indeed, these days, being a slave or concubine is just a matter of his words.

Mu Lan knew that what he said was not exaggerated, "Then I can understand that, are you trying to conquer me?"

Her words caused Dong Lingjue to chuckle, and then looked at her with some sarcasm, and said, "Is there any part of your body that I haven't conquered?"

Although Mu Lan was usually bold in words and deeds, she was also blushed by his blunt words, but she still pretended to be serious and said: "Well, I can be absolutely loyal to you, and I will let you see me The value of existence, but, I don't ask for wealth and splendor, I just want you to promise me one condition."

Now that the path to go has been chosen, it is necessary to form an alliance with him.

It was rare for Dong Ling not to lose his patience, "Let's hear it."

Mu Lan looked at him squarely, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "I just want the right to say no in front of you."
