Chapter 27 What is he doing

Zuo Xiangning was relieved when she learned that her third brother was fine, and then she felt the pain in the soles of her feet was severe, and her legs were sore and painful, making it difficult to walk even a step.

She turned into a nearby alley and found a stone to sit on.

She came out in a hurry today and didn't even bring any coins.

Just as she was worrying about how to go back, a black figure appeared in front of her.

Zuo Xiangning thought it was Gu Zhiqing, frowned and raised her head, and when she saw the person clearly, she called out in surprise: "Master?"

"Why are you here?" The man looked at her messy hair and pale face and asked with concern, "What happened?"

"I'm looking for my third brother..." Zuo Xiangning paused and said, "It's okay now."

"You don't have a servant at home? Who asked you to come out to find one?" Ling Xiao said displeased: "What does it look like running around with disheveled hair?"

"I was a little anxious when I came out this morning." Zuo Xiangning touched her hair with her hands and found that there were indeed a few strands of hair scattered around her temples.

She took off the hairpin, held it together with her hands, and put her hair up again.

When Ling Xiao raised her hand, he discovered that she was only wearing a homely pink close-fitting skirt under her cloak.

His face suddenly became darker. He looked around and saw that no one was passing by, but he still blocked the direction of the intersection.

"You came out in the morning and found it now?" Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Yeah." Zuo Xiangning beat her calf with her fist and said with a grimace, "My leg almost broke."

"Then why are you staying here if you don't go home now?" Ling Xiao asked in a cold voice, "They won't let you go back?"

"What are you talking about?" Zuo Xiangning glanced at him inexplicably.

She stood up from the ground, and as soon as the soles of her feet touched the ground, she felt excruciating pain. She swayed and almost fell.

Ling Xiao put his arm around her shoulders, and the two of them pressed together tightly.

Zuo Xiangning stood up straight and took a step to the side.

Ling Xiao slowly retracted his arms and put them behind his back, clenching his palms into fists.

"You wait here for a while, I'll find a carriage to come over." After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he walked quickly towards the entrance of the alley.

Zuo Xiangning bit her lower lip lightly, sweat breaking out on her forehead.

Before, just thinking about finding her third brother, she felt anxious and scared, and she didn't feel any pain in her feet. Now, as soon as she learned that the other person was fine, her feet hurt so much that she couldn't even touch the ground.

Ling Xiao arranged for someone to bring the carriage over. He turned around and saw her holding on to the wall and moving forward with difficulty. He hurriedly walked to her side and held her arm, "Can you still walk?"

Zuo Xiangning gritted her teeth and said "yes", but as soon as her foot touched the ground, she lifted it up again.

Ling Xiao put the hat on her cloak on her head and picked her up from the ground before she could say anything.

Zuo Xiangning was startled, but she did not resist.

Rather than squirming here, unable to move even an inch, it would be better to let him carry her away quickly.

She raised her hand to grab the brim of the hat and buried her entire face in his arms, leaving only her delicate chin and pink lips exposed.

Ling Xiao could clearly feel her hot breath, falling on his chest through his clothes, where his heart was.

He couldn't help but slow down.

He put Zuo Xiangning in the upright position of the carriage, sat next to her, picked up her feet and put them on his knees, and reached out to take off her embroidered shoes.

"What are you doing?" Zuo Xiangning was startled by his actions, and she hurriedly exclaimed and tried to pull back her feet.

But the man's hand was too strong, and Zuo Xiangning struggled hard. Not only did she not get her feet back, but her butt suddenly left the seat and fell to the ground.

Ling Xiao hurriedly reached out to pull her, but he still held her feet in his hand... So Zuo Xiangning was lifted up by him in an extremely strange posture. In panic, her hands grabbed the clothes on his shoulders, His hands held her waist and she sat on his lap.

The two looked at each other and were both taken aback.

Zuo Xiangning's face was so red that she could bleed.Although Ling Xiao's face didn't show it, his ears were already red.

He put Zuo Xiangning back on the chair, pointed to the shoes on her feet, and said: "The blisters on your feet have broken. When you go back later, soak them with warm water before taking them off. Never push them down directly." Pull."

Zuo Xiangning nodded, "Yeah."

"I'll go back and get you some ointment and send it to you later," Ling Xiao said.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." Zuo Xiangning said, "Princess Chu gave me a bottle of excellent ointment."

Ling Xiao raised her eyebrows, she always pretended to be peaceful.

The medicines she gave him that night were the most common trauma medicines.

Ling Xiao tore off two pieces of cloth from her inner clothes and wrapped several layers tightly around her shoes.

This time Zuo Xiangning didn't struggle anymore.

On this street, people are coming and going, and making too much noise will only attract more attention from others.

Moreover, he was so strong that she couldn't compete with him.

When the carriage arrived at the side door of Zuo Mansion, Zuo Xiangning arranged her hair, blessed Ling Xiao, turned around and stepped out of the carriage.

Ling Xiao saw two girls emerge from the side door. One by one, they supported Zuo Xiangning and quickly walked into the side door before letting the carriage leave.

Zuo Xiangning returned to the room, sat down on the Arhat bed, picked up the teapot next to her and drank five cups of tea in a row.

"Where did the girl go? She ran away for a day without saying a word, but Panxia and I were very anxious." Pancui took off Zuo Xiangning's cloak and asked the little girl to change the pot of tea.

"Close the door." Zuo Xiangning sent all the little girls out, leaving only Panxia and Pancui, and then said: "My foot is injured."

Panxia and Pancui were startled and hurriedly knelt down to look at Zuo Xiangning's feet.

Opening the black silk on Zuo Xiangning's feet, Panxia saw that the pus from the blisters on Zuo Xiangning's feet had been stained with the embroidered shoes. Panxia exclaimed, "Girl, your feet..."

"Don't make any noise, don't let anyone know." Zuo Xiangning whispered: "Pan Cui will get a basin of warm water, Pan Xia will get a small porcelain bottle from my dressing table, and prepare some clean and soft water. cotton."

The three of them closed the door and fiddled in the room for a long time before wrapping Zuo Xiangning's feet.

Zuo Xiangning leaned on the Arhat bed and asked, "Is the third young master here?"

"No." Panxia shook her head.

Zuo Xiangning's heart sank slightly. Her third brother was really annoyed with her.

She was not in the mood to eat, so she sent the two girls away and rested on the Arhat's bed that night.

In the middle of the night, Zuo Xiangning heard "dong" and "dong" sounds, twice at each window.

She sat up and asked nervously, "Who?"

The door was gently pushed open from the outside, and Ling Xiao, dressed in black and with a stern expression, walked in.

"Why are you here?" Zuo Xiangning asked, stretching her head.

"Who did you bolt the windows to protect against?" Ling Xiao walked to Arhat's bedside.

"Shouldn't the doors and windows be locked when sleeping at night?" Zuo Xiangning's eyes flashed slightly and said, "Didn't you also say that my yard is too remote and unsafe?"

Ling Xiao was speechless by her.

He went to the inner room in a familiar way, lit the candle, then returned to Arhat's bed, and carried Zuo Xiangning and the quilt on her body to the bed in the inner room.

He sat on the edge of the bed, picked up Zuo Xiangning's ankle, carefully looked at the blisters on her feet for a long time, took out a light blue porcelain bottle from his arms, took out some crystal clear ointment, and applied it on her on feet.

His expression was so focused and careful, as if she were a rare treasure, as he gently applied the ointment evenly.

Zuo Xiangning looked at him in front of her as if she were petrified, he... what was he doing?
