Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 13 I smell the familiar aroma again

Murong Jiu simply washed herself, changed her clothes, and applied some medicinal powder on her body before walking out from the inner room.

She was born with a strange smell, and the scent would be stronger after she sweated. The master said that her body scent would make men become impulsive, so he specially prepared powder for her to cover up the scent.

Jun Yuyan sat at the table, took a sip of tea, and her casual posture reminded her that this was Jun Yuyan's room, occupied by her.

Seeing her coming out, Jun Yuyan turned to look over and asked her how she was.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. It's just a nightmare. I wonder if Guard Yang is feeling better?"

"I would also like to thank the princess for her rescue. His life is no longer in danger and he will recover in a few days."

The two were polite and then ate together.

After dinner, Jun Yuyan stayed in the house with her for half an hour before leaving.

For half an hour, Jun Yuyan was reading under the candle while she was doing something else on the other side. The two of them had nothing to say, just like two people who had nothing in common.

When Jun Yuyan left, she stood up tacitly and sent the person outside the yard.

Jun Yuyan gave her enough face, and she was grateful. For these two nights, the servants in the palace would not dare to gossip.

And the child in his womb will not be looked down upon and called a bastard.

Jun Yuyan left Qiyun Court and looked back. Murong Jiu's thin figure flickered under the light of the lantern, and there was something strange in his heart that he couldn't get rid of.

Obviously, when he was waiting in the room, he smelled a familiar fragrance, but when Murong Jiu approached, the fragrance disappeared.

The third day is the day of returning home.

Chuntao got up early to clean up, and was a little excited. Although the people in the Hou Mansion were not very kind to the young lady, it was the young lady's natal family, and the young lady always respected her elders, so she would be very happy to come.

However, when Murong Jiu looked at himself in the bronze mirror, there was no smile on his face, and there was only unforgettable hatred in his eyes.

In her previous life, until her death, she had never thought that she was not a bloodline of the Hou family.

She regarded Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou as her biological parents, thinking that they didn't like her because of her bad luck. She thought that there were no parents in the world who didn't love their children. It must be because they were more reserved.

Who knew that they had deliberately used their biological daughter to replace her, causing her to never see her biological parents in her life, and causing her to have a miserable fate!

"Miss, my uncle is waiting outside to come home with you."

Chuntao ran back to her with a smile and said to her.

Murong Jiu suppressed the cold emotion in his eyes and returned to the Marquis Mansion with Jun Yuyan in a carriage.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for accompanying me back home. I wonder how Your Majesty has considered my proposal that day?"

She glanced at Jun Yuyan's legs and said.

It was difficult for him to walk with his legs, so he could only walk slowly. When he got into the carriage, he looked particularly stiff. If he dragged his legs further, he didn't know if they could be cured.

Jun Yuyan is a gentleman. If he can sit on the throne of the monarch in the future, he will definitely be a good emperor. Compared with the second prince, he will be many times better.

"I told you, I don't like to be touched by others." Especially women.

he said quietly.

Murong Jiu noticed that every time he was in the carriage, he would sit far away from her. Even if his legs and feet were uncomfortable, he would not need help when getting into the carriage.

She said: "If it can be treated only with acupuncture, I don't need to touch your legs."

"Really? You can tell at a glance whether my leg can be cured?" "That's not true. You need to press and check with your hands during diagnosis."

Jun Yuyan said: "I, the king, will think about it."

Murong Jiu knew that there would be basically no follow-up, so he thought about trying to persuade him another day.

After Yang Shan's incident, it was normal for Jun Yuyan not to trust her. Originally, she didn't want to have too much interaction with him, and asked for divorce when he found the woman he loved. But the dream that afternoon made her face Jun. There is always a strange feeling when Yu Yan is there, and he often thinks of his lonely look in his dreams.

She knew that the dream was just a dream. Jun Yuyan clearly had a beloved woman, so how could he have different thoughts about her.

What's more, she was so ugly, how could Jun Yuyan fall in love with her.

"I already have an idea of ​​the person you said you were looking for yesterday."

Suddenly, she heard Jun Yuyan say this.

She raised her head in surprise: "So fast? Where is he now?"

"Someone saw him in Lan'an three days ago. If nothing unexpected happens, my people will find him in two days at most, and will bring your words to him then."

Lan An?What is Master going to Lan'an for?
Lan'an is hundreds of miles away from the capital. There is a big mountain there. There are many precious and rare herbs in the mountain. Master may have gone to Lan'an to collect the medicine.

She said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty, your people are so powerful, is it possible to find the Star Snow Grass? If I can find it, I am sure to restore your appearance!"

"My face...can it be saved?"

Jun Yuyan looked at her with deep eyes, slightly surprised, "Do you know that the wounds on my face are so deep that you can see the bones."

His legs didn't matter, but this face... He didn't want him to still show off his mask when he found the woman, or take off his mask and scare her.

He remembered that when his face had just recovered from the injury, the centipede-like scars had frightened several maids into disfigurement, and frightened a child to cry when he left the house. From then on, he wore a mask.

Murong Jiu said: "Can I take a look?"

Jun Yuyan hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I hope it won't scare you."

She smiled and said: "How could it be? I followed Master and I have seen even the most horrific injuries."

Jun Yuyan pursed his lips and slowly took off the silver mask from his face with his slender fingers.

A red centipede-like scar appeared in Murong Jiu's eyes. She frowned slightly. Jun Yuyan's scar was more serious than she thought.

Jun Yuyan thought she felt uncomfortable, so he lowered his head and put on the mask.

At this time, Murong Jiu stretched out his hand to stop his movement and said to him:
"Don't wear a mask all the time. It's airtight. It's okay. I think you are very handsome like this. The scar does not affect your temperament at all, but adds to your mature charm. This is your medal. But the area around the scar has grown. You You need to apply medicine to prevent it from continuing to grow, otherwise the scar may become bigger and bigger.”

Her words made Jun Yuyan look slightly startled and surprised.

Her tone was not flattering, her eyes seemed to really think that this terrible scar was not ugly.

Murong Jiu said again:
"My master has excellent medical skills. In his early years, he treated a patient who was burned by a fire, and it was more serious than you. Unfortunately, it is difficult to find Star Snow Grass. If you can find it, you will be able to restore your appearance. I can help you prevent it now. If you apply the proliferative ointment every day, it can make the scars much smoother, and it can also eliminate them, but it cannot completely eliminate them.”

Afraid that he wouldn't believe it, she rolled up her sleeves, pointed to a shallow white scar on her arm and said:
"It's been three months. I've been applying medicine to the scar where I was cut with a knife, and now it's almost invisible."

Her arms were dazzlingly white and thin, as if they were white jade that could break at a moment's notice.

Jun Yuyan suddenly smelled the familiar fragrance again, and he approached Murong Jiu in disbelief.
