Shen Yu looked at Xie Tingzhou's tall and straight back walking in front, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind.
"Your Highness," she stepped a few steps faster and walked side by side with Xie Tingzhou, "In our team returning to Beijing—"
The words stopped suddenly because Xie Tingzhou coughed suddenly, and there was a touch of blood on his lips.
Xie Tingzhou raised his hand to wipe the corners of his lips and glanced at her sideways, "Are you afraid that I will die on the road?"
The blood on his lips made his pale face very beautiful, giving him a broken beauty.
Shen Yu believed that he could embrace the moon. If he grew like this, the moon would embrace him on its own.
"Afraid," Shen Yu stared at him and said seriously: "I'm afraid no one can make the defeat of Yanliang Pass known to the world."
This was the case in the last life. Everyone thought that it was Shen Zhongan who was greedy for power and rashly advanced, harming hundreds of thousands of soldiers and the people of Ganzhou.
Although she herself didn't believe such rhetoric, she was far away in Shengjing and had no idea what was going on at the border at that time. She could only marry someone in confusion and die in confusion.
A frightening smile appeared on the corners of Xie Tingzhou's lips. He slowly approached, his gaze close at hand, "Then don't let me die."
Before Shen Yu understood the meaning of this sentence, the body suddenly turned towards her.
She hurriedly held on to him, and felt Xie Tingzhou's whole body was hot with her tentacles, and she almost fell to the ground under his weight.
When she turned around, she saw a pale cheek lying on her shoulder, her eyes were closed tightly, and her breath was hot.
Shen Yu sighed.
Was this person trying to trick her just now? In order to prevent yourself from abandoning him when he fainted?
I'm afraid the person who least wants him to die is herself, because she is still waiting for him to clear away the grievances of the previous life for her father and brother.
Fortunately, she has practiced martial arts since she was a child and is much stronger than ordinary women.
But after walking in the snow with Xie Tingzhou on her back for so long, she almost couldn't hold on anymore.
Her legs were numb from the cold, and she could only swing by feeling. When she stepped on an uneven spot, she fell to the ground together with Xie Tingzhou before she could steady herself.
Once that energy is removed, it will be difficult to lift it up.
She pulled Xie Tingzhou's arm around her shoulders and failed to lift him up after several attempts.
Fortunately, it was in the wild, there was nothing else, and there were a lot of vegetation. I cut a few pieces of wood with a knife that was as sharp as iron and mud, and then tore up the hem of his clothes into strips of cloth to make a stretcher, dragging him one foot deep and one foot shallow. Walking in the snow.
She didn't dare to walk along the river, fearing that the assassins would come downstream, so she could only keep walking in one direction.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sky gradually became brighter.
There was a cock crow in the wind.
It was a small village with several farmhouses. Shen Yu hid the knife in the stretcher and dragged Xie Tingzhou to call the door.
The owner of the house, an old man, kindly let people in after hearing what happened to them.
Of course, Shen Yu didn't tell the truth. She only said that the two brothers encountered a group of bandits on their way to Beijing to find their relatives. In desperation, they jumped into the water to escape. As a result, they were washed downstream and walked all night to get here.
The farmhouse has only three cabins and a stove room.
The old man arranged the two of them in one of the rooms and found two pairs of his own clothes.
Shen Yu put Xie Tingzhou on a simple wooden bed with hay and a thin mattress on top.
Xie Tingzhou's clothes had long been evaporated dry by the heat from his body, and then soaked with sweat.
Shen Yu grew up in a military camp. She slept in the sweaty and smelly Datongbu in the camp. The idea that men and women have different opinions is all nonsense when it comes to life and death.
Xie Tingzhou was almost stripped clean by her. When she took off the last layer of underwear, she felt a little resistance.
Turning Xie Tingzhou over, Shen Yu took a breath.
It was too dark to see clearly before, but now I realized that the clothes on his back were stuck together with the solidified flesh and blood.
A thin layer of muscle is attached to the back, and the muscles are tight and smooth.
Only a bloody wound ruined the beauty, and there were some bruises scattered on the back, as if...as if it was caused by hitting a sharp stone in the water.
This person can really endure it. Even after being injured like this, how could this person maintain his composure all the way? He only said to her at the last moment, "Then don't let me die."
The conditions in the farmhouse were poor and the wounds could only be simply bandaged.
Shen Yu slept and woke up in and out. Every time she woke up, she touched Xie Tingzhou's forehead. She didn't let herself fall asleep until his fever subsided.
As dusk fell, Xie Tingzhou gradually woke up from his slumber.
The evening glow penetrated the crack in the door and hit him right in the face.
He opened his eyes and stared at the beams on the roof, his thoughts gradually returning.
He pulled the quilt covering his body and was about to get up when he realized something was wrong.
As soon as he moved, a soft body pressed up next to him.
The quilt slipped off, revealing a gorgeous face with patches of black and white, sleeping soundly next to him.
Xie Tingzhou froze. This was the first time he slept on the same bed with a man.
It’s just this man…
He lowered his head and took a closer look.
This man is actually quite handsome, with eyelashes as thick as crow feathers and delicate facial features, but his skin color...
Just as he was thinking about it, the man opened his eyes.
Shen Yu was confused when she woke up. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Xie Tingzhou's face close at hand.
There was only such a narrow wooden bed in the room. She was really sleepy, so she had to sleep together with him.
She blinked and jumped out of bed.
Xie Tingzhou's nose suddenly hurt, and his head hit him. The pain made him wake up.
"Sorry." Shen Yu looked at Xie Tingzhou, who was covering the bridge of his nose with a resentful look on his face, and said regretfully: "Are you feeling better?"
Xie Tingzhou closed his eyes with a sigh of relief, not wanting to answer her.
He finally understood that he and Shigure were in direct conflict with each other. He fell into the water first, and then was stabbed by her after falling into the water. Now the bridge of his nose may not be saved.
"This is where?"
Shen Yu got out of bed to pour him water and answered honestly, "A farmer's family, grandpa took us in."
Xie Tingzhou said: "We just met and we're already in love?"
Shen Yu handed him the water and whispered, "That's because I'm trying to please you."
Xie Tingzhou: "..." No.
A dog barked outside the house.
Shen Yu ran over and opened the door. Standing at the door, she saw the old man coming back through the glow, carrying two wild ducks in his hands.
"Grandpa, you are back."
The old man smiled when he saw her, "Wake up, Xiaoyu, I shot two ducks and I will help your brother recuperate at night."
Shen Yu smiled and nodded, "Thank you, grandpa."
I was about to run to help, but then I remembered that there was an ancestor in the house.
Looking back, he saw Xie Tingzhou looking at him, with the hand holding the bowl on his knees and one hand supporting the bed board, sitting lazily. The ridiculously simple farmhouse made him feel like he was in a world away from home.
"Brother?" Xie Tingzhou raised his eyebrows.
Shen Yu said: "It was a helpless move, otherwise it would be difficult to explain."
"I'm fine," Xie Tingzhou turned the bowl in his hand and said, "It's just that being my elder brother and younger brother didn't end well, because,"
He looked at Shigure, "They are all dead, and those who are not dead are also disabled."
Shen Yu had heard some rumors that Prince Beilin had not had many heirs. He originally had four sons, but when he died, only Xie Tingzhou was left alone.
It was claimed that it was either an accident or death from illness, but Shen Yu knew that there was probably something wrong with it.
Ordinary families have a few acres of land or three ounces of store space and still have to fight over their property, let alone a princely family like Xie Tingzhou.
Take the current Emperor Tongxu as an example. He gave birth to more than a dozen princes, but only six or seven survive today.
But this is not Shen Yu's concern.
She calmly pointed to the clothes on the bed, "You are too tall to wear grandpa's clothes. I dried your inner clothes and the torn places are...I sewed them for you. You can only sew them first." Just a moment.”
"I'm going to help." Shen Yu turned and left.
"Wait." Xie Tingzhou said.
"Um?"
"Wash your face clean."
Shen Yu's body stiffened. Could it be that he discovered her?
Subconsciously, I had to explain, "I was always called a sissy in the army and didn't look heroic enough, so..."
"If you're not brave enough, just paint your face black?" Xie Tingzhou looked him up and down, "Eat more and grow taller."
Shen Yu: "..."
