Chapter 296 Why Are You Still Following Me?
Chapter 296 Why Are You Still Following Me?
The story of the Yunzhou incident, in which the Prince of Chu single-handedly went straight to Huanglong, rescued the princess, and killed the bandits, has spread to all cities in the Great Zhou.
The restaurant has a large flow of customers, and with the storytellers telling passionate heroic stories, Chu Jiang is now quite famous.
Therefore, during the period when Chu Jiang had just gotten engaged, many details were added to the story of Chu Jiang winning the competition to recruit a son-in-law from Jiang Zhenyao in the capital, creating a new story.
Chu Jiang fought the enemy on the city wall every day, so naturally he didn't know what others were discussing in private.
People like gossip, even when they are about to die...
They were still discussing in private the story of Jiang Zhenyao's journey thousands of miles to chase her husband.
Even their normal conversations can be interpreted in a hundred different ways by them.
The medicinal herbs in Rong Qingzhu's hand were silently clenched, and his dark eyes were fixed on Jiang Zhenyao, who was cared for by the young man in every possible way.
Jiang Zhenyao had fallen into a coma and the young man was covered in blood, but he only cared about Jiang Zhenyao lying on the wooden bed.
Slender white fingers gently brushed away the scattered hair on the girl's face. The scattered hair was stained with mottled blood.
It was clearly just a simple action, but Rong Qingzhu seemed to see tenderness in it.
Qi Bai seemed to treat Jiang Zhenyao as a priceless treasure, and his movements were extremely gentle, for fear of hurting Jiang Zhenyao.
In fact...
Chu Xi was indeed cautious, but that was also out of mutual respect and love for the young lady.
There are few girls as courageous as Jiang Zhenyao, even in modern times when men and women are equal.
She truly admires Jiang Zhenyao.
Jiang Zhenyao was born in the era. If she could be born a few hundred or a thousand years later, in the 21st century...
She will have another world.
In the 21st century, the status of women is at least much higher than it is now.
There will not be all kinds of rules and regulations for women, and there will be too many restrictions that should not exist.
For all women, there is a vast world and great opportunities to achieve success.
She didn't know that Rong Qingzhu had so many random thoughts in his mind. She stood up, entrusted the person to the military doctor, and planned to find a quiet place to change the bandages and treat the wound.
As a result, when he turned around, he saw Rong Qingzhu standing there in a daze.
He stared blankly at the place where Jiang Zhenyao was lying, without saying a word.
Chu Xi walked over and stopped in front of Rong Qingzhu, "What's wrong with you?"
"I heard from them that many wounded soldiers came to help." Rong Qingzhu raised his hand, intending to let Qi Bai see the medicinal herbs in his hand...
However, he didn't expect that he had already squeezed the herbs into a mess, wrinkled and in a mess.
It was as if his heart was in a complete mess at this moment, and he... had no idea where to start and couldn't figure out why he was so abnormal?
"Oh." Chu Xi's body was covered with wounds, and the pain made her feel like her soul was leaving her body.
After all, she is just an ordinary person, so ordinary that she can't be more ordinary.
Chu Jiang, who is as dazzling as a peerless genius in the eyes of the world, no one knows how much sweat and effort she has put in private to continue to maintain this character.
Rong Qingzhu hid the herbs in his hand behind his back with an embarrassed look on his face, and explained dryly, "I accidentally used too much force."
Chu Xi didn't understand why Rong Qingzhu looked so nervous as if he had done something wrong.
That expression was just like that of a good student in school who was caught by the teacher.
"...Well, you go ahead and I'll go take care of the wound."
"I'll help you." Rong Qingzhu answered instinctively.
Chu Xi refused naturally, "No, I can do it myself, you go ahead and do your work, we need help here."
This time it was Rong Qingzhu's turn to not know what to say.
He nodded. “Oh.”
Perhaps it would be better to calm down, so that he wouldn't have some inexplicable and inappropriate thoughts in his mind.
Jiang Zhenyao was being treated by a military doctor, so she didn't need to stay and left the room.
Chu Xi turned his head and saw Chu Er still following him closely, not caring about the injuries on his body. He was a little surprised.
"Why are you still following me? Your wounds haven't been treated yet, go and treat them first."
Taking advantage of the truce now, maybe I can get some sleep after treating my wounds.
They haven't slept for several days, so even an hour of sleep would be good.
"There is no one else around the master. I will deal with it after the master has finished." Chu Er replied expressionlessly.
Compared to his master's safety and status, his injury was a trivial matter and not worth mentioning.
Chu Xi was stunned.
Soon I realized what Chu Er meant.
The barracks were filled with men, and there were too many wounded soldiers. Even the largest inn in the city was not enough for them.
There are at least a dozen people living in one house, and sometimes even twenty people.
The noise was loud, and since they were all grown men, it was okay for them to go in and out shirtless, so they didn't even bother knocking on the door.
"Master?" Chu Er called out in confusion when he saw Chu Xi in a daze.
Chu Xi pursed her lips, remained silent for a moment, and compromised, "Okay."
In fact, it would be good to have someone guarding outside. At least when she doesn't have to change clothes, she can still spare some energy to pay attention to what is happening outside.
This body has a special identity. Once its gender is exposed, it will not just be one or two people who will be implicated, but the entire family.
In this era of strict registration, under the rule of the emperor, people often like to exterminate people's entire clan.
Chu Xi's identity is a time bomb. If it explodes, too many people will be injured.
Therefore, she cannot relax at all.
"Yes." Chu Er nodded.
-
Yun Jiyu and a few others also came here to treat their wounds. They didn't see Chu Jiang and couldn't help but feel curious.
"What about Bai?"
Before they could find Chu Jiang, a group of people rushed in, led by Zhou Yichen.
His tall figure rushed in like a gust of wind, and before I could see his face clearly, he was already in front of me.
"Where are the other white people?" Zhou Yichen's eyes quickly swept across the room. His narrow, long, almond-shaped eyes no longer had the gentleness he had when facing Chu Xi. Instead, they showed only the majesty and dignity that he was born with.
After all, he is a member of the royal family. The temperament accumulated from more than 20 years of fine clothes and delicious food is naturally different from that of ordinary people.
He did not need to deliberately maintain his image. The pressure emanating from his bones made many soldiers automatically keep silent. They no longer dared to speak freely as before.
Han Yaojun and others remembered their identities, and when they saw Zhou Yichen coming, they immediately saluted despite their injuries.
Yun Jiyou saluted, and his every move and gesture showed the noble temperament carefully cultivated by a scholarly family.
"Your Highness."
Zhou Yichen obviously didn't have the patience to look at other people, his mind and eyes were filled with only Chu Jiang.
Tang Yuhuai, who was standing aside and always concentrating on practicing martial arts and not paying attention to other things, noticed it, and naturally others could see it as well.
