"call!!"

The lanterns in the corridor were swaying wildly in the cold wind, and the shadows of the two people reflected on the ground kept flickering, never intersecting.

"Cui Shao acted like this just to help me help Qianqiu escape from marrying Gongsun Linghua. He jumped in the freezing cold water and swam back and forth twice. When he was found by my informant, he fell into a snowdrift. , the person almost died, but luckily he was brought back in time, with only slight frostbite.”

Shen Yuan looked at Pei Zhaoxue's brows that gradually calmed down: "I am the only one who burns the earth dragon in my couch room in this house, so that he can sleep in it and recuperate. I am not sleeping on the same couch with him. Why are you crazy?"

Besides, even if she has no feelings for Pei Zhaoxue now and has feelings for others, she will not act recklessly before she reconciles with him. What is the difference between that and deceiving others and pretending to be a mistress?

"Is it really just that?"

Pei Zhaoxue thought of Cui Shao's unusual look every time he looked at Shen Yuan. He pursed his lips into a straight line and took a step forward to approach Shen Yuan. His shadow finally met hers.

"Otherwise? Speaking of this, you are also laughing. Since you are not willing to help me, why should you agree to me? If Cui Shao hadn't unexpectedly appeared, Qianqiu would have received the imperial edict to go to Tubo to marry in Tubo's place on Gongsun Linghua's behalf!"

Fortunately, she still believed in Pei Zhaoxue, thinking that since he agreed, he would not play tricks on her.

"You said I didn't help you?"

Pei Zhaoxue raised her right hand wrapped in white straps and looked at it with the naked eye. She could still see some blood soaked in it.

There was only one lamp in the room, and the light was very dim. After entering the room, her attention was all attracted to Cui Shao, and she didn't even notice that Pei Zhaoxue had a bandage on her right hand.

"What do you mean? How did this happen?"

"Of course I helped you so that Yun Qianqiu could have a chance to find the Supreme Emperor. If it weren't for my methods, do you really think that I would let her leave the palace where the imperial edict had been placed and she was just waiting for her to press her fingerprints? "

Cui Shao helped her, but he didn't understand the current situation in the palace or the people's hearts.

It is true that the Supreme Emperor loves Yun Qianqiu, but the power of the current government lies in the hands of the emperor. The imperial decree is more important than anything else. Even the emperor's father cannot directly invalidate the imperial decree without overstepping the emperor.

It can only be said that Cui Shao's move was just to let the Supreme Emperor know the news earlier and go to find Yun Qianqiu earlier.

But it may not really help Yun Qianqiu get out of trouble.

As Pei Zhaoxue spoke, he told Yun Qianqiu what to do while writing on the table with tea in the palace in detail. He stared at her eyes the whole time, and the ends of his eyes turned red because of his grievance.

"In order to help you, I put those broken porcelain pieces on my whole right hand. If the wound is deeper, it will affect my future life."

The young man pressed Shen Yuan step by step, and she stepped back subconsciously. He continued to accuse her: "In order to help you, I braved the danger of being discovered by the emperor and the Supervisor of Ceremonies, and did not dare to make a single mistake. This is what you said. , I’m not willing to help you?”

After saying that, Shen Yuan had no choice but to retreat. He pressed his back against the red wooden pillar behind him. He looked helplessly at Pei Zhaoxue's increasingly red eyes with complicated emotions: "I didn't know you were using a trick. I just listened to the informant." Say you promised the emperor, I"

"I hurt." Pei Zhaoxue interrupted her and handed her hand to Shen Yuan, with a weak gesture she had never seen before.

At this moment, he was like an aloof raccoon slave who usually ignored people. Now he suddenly lowered his posture and started to act coquettishly, stretching out his cat paws and meowing to express his discomfort.

"Where does it hurt?" Shen Yuan was confused for a moment and subconsciously accepted his words.

When he came back to his senses, he remembered that he was injured, and the wound would still be painful until it healed, so he frowned and tried to push him further away.

But when she stretched out her hand, it didn't touch his right hand at all, and he hissed, scaring her to stop subconsciously.

"I haven't treated the wound on my hand yet, so I rushed back to my new house to bring you good news, so..."

Pei Zhaoxue took off the straps, revealing the horrific wounds inside. Shen Yuan could even see some very fine broken pieces of porcelain stuck inside, which looked extremely scary. "Are you stupid? Why don't you deal with it first?"

Shen Yuan was speechless and asked him to follow him to the medicine house that had just been opened in the house and had not been used much.

The doctor she hired for Cui Shao earlier was still there. She was worried about whether Cui Shao's frostbite would cause problems again, so she kept it just in case.

I never thought that it would be used by Pei Zhaoxue now.

The doctor was woken up from his sleep and carried a small medicine box into the medicine room to treat Pei Zhaoxue's wounds.

When the debris inside was cleaned up and only the medicine needed to be applied, Pei Zhaoxue let him go down.

"But this medicine."

"My wife will fuck me, go down."

Shen Yuan didn't even eat dinner. She was so hungry that she went to the kitchen for a supper.

When he came back from the late night snack, he found that Pei Zhaoxue's injury on his hand had not yet been treated with medicine. He frowned and asked him, "Where is the doctor? Why did he disappear before the medicine was applied?"

Pei Zhaoxue lowered her eyelashes, and the shadow of her eyelashes fell on his eyelids, covering the twinkling eyes of his eyes: "All that's left is to apply the medicine. He is old and his eyesight is dim. He used a wooden stick to prick the wound several times, and I I asked him to put his things down and wait for you to come back and put them on for me."

"Is this happening?" Shen Yuan didn't know the doctor's eyesight. After looking at Pei Zhaoxue's wounds that were still exposed to the air, she thought that he had suffered the injuries to help her, and it was reasonable for her to go and help. I had no choice but to sit down in front of him reluctantly and pick up the wooden spoon to apply the medicine for him.

A double candle was placed on the table in the room. The light spread outward from the center of the round table, and the candlelight became dimmer as it went outward.

Shen Yuan was sitting in a well-lit place, and the snow crystal earrings on her ears were extremely conspicuous.

Finding that she was wearing the earrings given by Shen Xuan, but not the snow crystal jade pendant that he had almost risked half his life to bring back, Pei Zhaoxue's uninjured hand slowly curled up into a fist shape under the cover of her sleeve.

"Why aren't you wearing the jade pendant I gave you?"

He pretended to ask casually, but Shen Yuan didn't even raise his head, telling the truth.

"It's too expensive. It's easy to attract thieves if you take it out. But you came here specially for it today. Is it just for the meal I told you about before? You didn't wait, right?"

Pei Zhaoxue thought of the time he waited from dawn to dusk, and lied and shook his head: "Of course not."

"I think so too."

The girl used the wooden spoon to scoop out a lump of ointment again and applied it to the largest wound, applying it very gently.

Looking at her like this, Pei Zhaoxue suddenly remembered that before they were married, she used to use this gesture to carefully apply medicine for him.

But now, he is not the only one who is treated like this by her.

He remembered the existence of Shen Xuan and Cui Shao, and couldn't help asking her:

"Yuan'er, do you have someone you like now?"

"If so, where would you like that person?" (End of Chapter)
