The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 148: The Past (4)

Xia Yan stood there in a daze for a moment, then suddenly his eyes darkened and he passed out.

The light and shadows in the cave flickered, even though it was a simple environment, it looked moving because of the fire.

The bushes were tightly blocked at the entrance of the cave, preventing the cold wind from blowing in. Jiang Ruan leaned against the stone wall in front of the fire, and closed his eyes tiredly.

When she was so nervous, lonely and widowed, she was assured that Xiao Shao would not do anything to her. In his previous life, this man was notoriously unfeminine and indifferent. Ye Li tried to send him many beauties, but in the end he had to Return in vain. What's more, she is only twelve years old now, and she is in such a mess right now, if Xiao Shao really has some intentions, then she will be blind.

After taking Xiao Shao's medicine and eating, his body gradually warmed up. After running around for a day, he was really too tired, and finally couldn't help but fell into a drowsy sleep.

Before falling asleep, she thought, how did Xiao Shao answer the question she asked Xiao Shao before?

He said, "Xiao owes you his life."

What does this mean?

Jiang Ruan fell into a deep sleep. After a long while, the young man who was fascinated by the fire turned his face and stared at Jiang Ruan with a complicated expression.

The girl faded away from her usual sharpness and hostility, leaving only her gentle and beautiful appearance. Her natural facial features were bright, but under the light of the fire, there was a faint charm. Given time, she must be a lively beauty.

However, Xiao Shao's heartstrings were not moved by the beautiful scenery in front of him, he just lowered his head and took out something in his sleeve, which was the pendant inlaid with bright jade butterfly and love flowers.

He lowered his eyes, his slender fingertips brushed past the pendant, and inexplicable emotions gradually appeared in his eyes.

Time seems to go back to six years ago.

Six years ago, shortly after he took over Jinyiwei, he was tricked into taking on a task as soon as he left the school. The other party was a fierce commander from Dongyi Kingdom. He came to revenge after learning of his identity. Because of fear, there is a warlock with strange methods beside him. In order to establish his prestige in Jin Yiwei and to complete the task, he can only deal with the opponent alone.

After seven days and seven nights, he killed the commander and the warlock, and the warlock also used his familiarity with the local terrain to poison him.

The Dongyi people would not detoxify him. The fourteen-year-old boy rode back to the capital and escaped death all the way. There were countless people waiting to kill him in the middle of the capital. His enemy released the news that he was seriously injured. It's murderous.

However, no matter how powerful he is in martial arts, he couldn't prevent the fierce poison from coming, and he was extremely weak. On the way back to Beijing, he was ambushed all the way, with many bruises, and it was the heaviest injury he suffered since his birth.

There was an ambush in the front and pursuers in the back. In desperation, he hid in a meditation room in Baoguang Temple.

But there were people in the meditation room.

Under the moonlight, a girl who was only five or six years old stared at him dumbfounded, Xiao Shao frowned, and the long sword in her hand suddenly appeared.

However, the girl rushed over clumsily and asked in surprise, "Are you injured?"

There were countless serious injuries on his body, and his black clothes were already soaked. Although he couldn't see it, it was full of blood.

He was in a daze, and the girl knelt down beside him, and took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms: "This is medicine for wounds, are you okay?"

The wound medicine is just an ordinary wound medicine, the girl carefully pushed aside his clothes, he was wary at first, but when he saw the other party's clumsy posture, he felt amused in his heart. Such a small doll, I don't know which family's maid it is.

He really thought it was a maid, because the little girl was dressed as a maid, and her words were simple and smart. When the moonlight came over, her face was clearly illuminated. Refreshing, natural beauty.

Although she is a maid, she doesn't look like a maid.

He was a little surprised.

The girl persistently applied the medicine to him. He was so weak that he couldn't move. He thought that he would die tonight. Girls toss.

The girl watched his breathing gradually weaken, but there were tears in her eyes, she stood up abruptly and ran out.

He thought that the girl must have gone out to call someone, but there was no strength in his body to stop it, and he was too lazy to stop it, so he sat in the room, waiting for the moment when his life ended.

The moonlight was fading, the young man's face was peerless, but his expression was indifferent, he stepped on it all the way up, step by step, the higher and more stable he walked, but the more lonely he was. I don't know the meaning of living, and I don't know what to live for.

But after a while, the girl came back again.

She was holding some snacks and clean water in her hand, her face was still a little dirty, she timidly pushed the things towards him: "Do you want to eat something?"

The young Xiao Shao raised his head, and seeing the marks on the little girl's face, he knew that she had been injured. Such a smart and beautiful little girl, how could someone beat her like this? He frowned, looked at the food on the ground, and gradually realized that the little maid should be of very low status, and it is not uncommon for the little maids of wealthy families to get along with the wrong master sometimes, and live a miserable life.

There was a slight movement in his heart. The girl looked at him curiously. Seeing that he was not moving, she vigorously picked up the bowl and brought it to his lips. He was indeed thirsty, so he lowered his head and drank. Although the girl was struggling to move, she looked very proficient, and she thought she would often serve people to drink tea on weekdays.

"Don't die." The girl looked at him and said, "I won't tell others that you are here."

Xiao Shao didn't speak.

The girl started feeding him snacks again.

She began to speak slowly, nothing more than that in a few days the sun will be better, the pear blossoms in the west mountain will bloom, and the peach blossoms in the east mountain will also bloom. Shoes, the girl next door has a beagle, and she also wants one. My brother’s recent essay has been praised by his father, and he will be the number one scholar in the future.

Chattering, trying to say something interesting to make him happy, so as not to fall asleep. It's not that Xiao Shao doesn't understand her intentions are so immature, it's just that the other party's intentions, even though she is not interested, she has the right to listen to it as a joke.

He felt that this child must have a happy and happy family, so he was born so kind and warm. Even the ordinary things that come out of his mouth are very interesting.

Unexpectedly, the poison did not break out that night, and the simple wound medicine and food gradually recovered his strength. In the meditation room behind Baoguang Temple, the moonlight was shining all night, and the spring breeze was blowing all night. The boy and the girl sat quietly while the other babbled, and the picture was surprisingly harmonious.

She talked all night, and in the early morning of the second day, the temple bell rang, and someone outside whispered: "Miss, ma'am."

The girl Huo stood up suddenly: "My servant girl has come to look for me, you should leave as soon as you recover from your injury. Be careful not to be discovered."

It turned out that she was not a maid.

Xiao Shao whispered: "Thank you."

The girl had already walked to the door, but when she heard his words, she suddenly turned around and looked at him with a smile: "You don't have to thank me, I saved your life today, in case I am also in danger in the future, and you happen to pass by, Just save my life."
