Chapter 153
When Zhong Shao finished distributing the hemostatic powder and bandages and returned to the princess, Su Mo and Concubine Gui had obviously bandaged the princess.The latter was lifted up and sat on a rock, leaning sideways against the noble concubine, wrapped in Su Mo's thick cloak.
Seeing Zhong Shao's return, the Concubine Gui opened her mouth with a worried face: "Ah Shao, it's impossible to go on like this, it's too cold here, Ying Yang can't stand it, can you build a fire?"
After all, it was the middle of winter, and the night in the barren mountains was actually very cold. The mountain wind whizzed past, not to mention the injured eldest princess, even people who were not injured could feel the bone-chilling chill.Zhong Shao saw the pale face of the Eldest Princess under the firelight at a glance, and also saw her slightly trembling lips—people who are injured and bleeding are always more afraid of the cold.
Zhong Shao was a little worried. In such a situation, the Eldest Princess might have a fever for a while, but before she could speak, a steady voice suddenly sounded behind her: "You can't make a fire. Your Majesty is not a person who will let it go. Before dawn, the imperial army will probably come out again to search and track, the fire is too conspicuous at night.”
The voice came so abruptly that Zhong Shao subconsciously turned around and saw Chen Mao following her.
Chen Mao also ignored Zhong Shao, seeing the two people sitting on the rock, he raised his hand and said: "The last general, Chen Mao, has seen the concubine and Her Highness Yingyang." He first bowed to the concubine, and then Paying homage to the Eldest Princess is obviously a clear statement that he is a noble concubine.
Concubine Gui was also a little surprised when she saw him, but she didn't say anything, she just said worriedly: "Then what should I do? Ying Yang has lost a lot of blood, if this delay continues, her injury may not be good."
It can be said that the wealth and lives of these people present are now tied to the eldest princess. Unless they can go directly out of customs and go to the Western Regions like Zhong Shao has done all these years, otherwise they will definitely not be able to see the eldest princess easily. of.
Chen Mao didn't pay much attention to the eldest princess, but after hearing what the concubine said, he still thought about it and said: "Why don't you look for a cave, and if you can find a deeper cave, then do something at the entrance of the cave." It shouldn’t be a problem to cover up and light a fire.”
The cave can also shelter from the wind, which is naturally good, but now the mountain is completely dark, and everyone is not familiar with the path, so it is not easy to find a cave.Chen Maoyuan was the commander of the Imperial Army of Chunming Sect. He hadn't gone through a fight, and he wasn't injured at the moment, so after he raised his opinion, he took a few less injured people and left without hesitation.
The noble concubine watched their backs disappear into the dark dense forest, and felt the person in her arms tremble unconsciously, so she subconsciously tightened her embraced arms, and then realized that she was afraid of hurting the eldest princess, He quickly loosened his strength again.
The eldest princess who was held in the arms of the noble concubine was very weak and not very awake, but now she was seriously injured and in a bad situation, and she was afraid that she would never wake up after falling asleep, so she had to hold on. Dare to sleep.She heard Chen Mao's words, and she also noticed the tight and loose strength of the imperial concubine, and she opened her mouth at this moment: "Are you worried?"
Suddenly hearing the eldest princess speak, the noble concubine was also taken aback, she looked down, but saw the eldest princess was also looking at her with her eyes open.The four eyes met, the noble concubine didn't react, she just asked in doubt: "Huh?"
The Eldest Princess closed her eyes, and said calmly, "That little guard..."
More than ten years ago, Emperor Taiping was assassinated, and the imperial concubine blocked the knife for him desperately. She was injured that time, no matter how difficult it was to have a child, but it also won her the exclusive favor of the Sacred Heart for more than ten years.
After Emperor Taiping was assassinated, he disposed of many Habayashi. Concubine Gui interceded for several people, including Chen Mao who was injured to protect her.Then Chen Mao gradually became famous in Yulin, and they seemed to have no contact with each other, but in fact, they both still remembered that incident.Especially Chen Mao took that matter, or the Grand Concubine, very seriously, and the Grand Concubine was willing to trust him.
The noble concubine did not expect that the eldest princess also remembered, she blinked and asked, "Do you remember him?"
The eldest princess closed her eyes and said nothing, but the imperial concubine seemed to understand something suddenly, and she couldn't help but smile, which was quite meaningful.But after laughing, she straightened her expression and said, "I'm not worried about him, I'm only worried about you."
************************************************** ************
After several incidents tonight, Zhong Shao could see clearly that the relationship between the two mothers in her family was really extraordinary.From herself to others, she didn't think there was anything unacceptable, but it felt awkward for her mother-in-law and mother-in-law to get together.
Perhaps it was not only Zhong Shao who felt awkward, but also Su Mo who was also ignored by his mother for a long time.She stepped forward and walked to Zhong Shao's side. She was flustered and didn't notice it before, but now she smelled a strong smell of blood as soon as she approached.
Frowning slightly, Su Mo asked, "Ah Shao, are you injured?"
Zhong Shao also didn't want to see his mother-in-law and mother-in-law's sticky communication without paying attention, so he led Su Mo to the side, and then replied calmly: "Don't worry, Ah Mo, I'm fine."
After all the fighting tonight, everyone was covered in blood. Even Concubine Su Mogui and others who joined later were inevitably splattered with blood when they broke through the Chunming Gate.Naturally, Zhong Shao was no exception. After the arrow was shot, he drew his knife and slashed. The knife pierced into the flesh, and the knife saw blood. The clothes on his body were almost completely stained with blood without knowing it.
Zhong Shao had experienced such things a lot, and seen a lot of blood, so he didn't care, but Su Mo caught a glimpse of the damage to the clothes on her arms when she was answering.So without further ado, he pulled her arm to check.
As expected, there was still blood under the torn cloth, but it was not serious. It should be that after the eldest princess was shot by the arrow, an arrow grazed her arm, but at that time Zhong Shao was flustered and didn't notice it!But having said that, Princess Dachang was shot by an arrow behind Zhong Shao, and she actually blocked the arrow for her...
It was awkward for a moment, especially after meeting Su Mo's gloomy eyes, Zhong Shao subconsciously wanted to pull his arm back, but was stopped by Su Mo in a cold voice: "Don't move! I didn't take care of you." Mother, you didn’t take care of yourself, and you dared to hide it from me when you were injured..."
It could be heard that Su Mo was a little annoyed. People who usually don't get angry even have extremely low air pressure when they get angry.
Zhong Shao lowered his head and didn't dare to say more, but after waiting for a while, he didn't hear Su Mo continue to reprimand him.She looked up secretly, but saw that Su Mo had already taken out the hemostatic powder and gauze for the eldest princess from her bosom, and when she looked up, she said: "What are you still doing in a daze, roll up your sleeves, I'll do it for you first Bandage the wound."
Ah Mo doesn't seem to be that angry?
Zhong Shao felt relieved, obediently rolled up his sleeves, and then explained softly: "I didn't want to lie to you, but the situation was too urgent before, and I didn't even notice when I got this injury. I thought it was all right.”
Su Mo was pouring the hemostatic powder on the gauze, when she heard that her hands were thumped, she raised her head, her face did not relax because of Zhong Shao's explanation, on the contrary, her expression became more dignified or tense: "If you are injured, then You didn’t notice the pain?! Besides your arm, are there any other injuries on your body?!” As she spoke, she wanted to check Zhong Shao’s whole body.
Zhong Shao hurriedly said: "It's okay, really, the blood is someone else's. It's just that Auntie was shot by an arrow before, and I was nervous, so I didn't notice it. Now it's relieved, and there is no pain other than my arm. gone."
Su Mo was really worried, and there was nothing he could do about her.The arrow bruise may not be a big deal to Zhong Shao, but it cannot be ignored for a noble lady like Su Mo, needless to say the pain, but this person didn't even notice that he was injured... Su Mo couldn't help worrying, would she get hurt one day without noticing it, and even lose too much blood? !
Worried and even more distressed, Su Mo pursed his lips and stopped talking, silently took the wound medicine and bandaged the wound on Zhong Shao's arm first.After finishing the treatment, she still looked around Zhong Shao worriedly, until she was sure that there were no other injuries on her body, then she relaxed her expression.
Zhong Shao still remembered what Su Mo had warned her not to add another scar to her body, and seeing that the other party seemed not to pursue the matter anymore, she was secretly relieved.She raised her eyes to look at Su Mo, only then realized that the other person's complexion was not very good, and she knew it when she touched it with her hand - it was frozen!
Su Mo was already afraid of the cold, and had even given out his cloak for his mother's sake, but now it was freezing cold.However, her nature is somewhat similar to that of the Eldest Princess, stubbornly persisting, unwilling to easily expose her embarrassment, so under the premise that the matter cannot be resolved, she just endures it without saying anything.
Zhong Shao also remembered how the Eldest Princess endured the severe pain when she pulled out the arrow, and when she looked at Su Mo again, she couldn't help but feel distressed, and at the same time complained: "Since you are cold, why didn't you tell me and treat me like an outsider?" Never?" As she spoke, she pulled her into her arms and hugged her, and pressed her palm against Su Mo's back, slowly injecting internal energy into her body to keep her warm.
Su Mo leaned on Zhong Shao's arms with peace of mind, she didn't know the wonder of inner strength, but she could feel the warmth faded from her body, so she only felt the warmth of Zhong Shao's embrace.Leaning his head on Zhong Shao's shoulder, Su Mo said softly: "It happened suddenly tonight, we didn't prepare anything, so what can we say, there is not even an extra robe here, it's just a waste of time to say it." It's just annoying."
What's more, compared to her who was safe and sound, the eldest princess who had lost too much blood and the guards who were also injured were obviously more difficult.
Zhong Shao didn't know what to say when he heard the words, because what Su Mo said was good, they really had nothing at the moment, and they couldn't even start a fire.So he had no choice but to keep silent and concentrate on channeling Su Mo's internal energy to keep him warm.
But for a moment, Su Mo's pale and blue face from the cold eased, and even his stiff body also eased.
The author has something to say:
Zhong Shao (melancholy): When the two ladies stay together, they always feel like they can show off their faces. I'd better take my daughter-in-law with me...
