Wishful Things

Xu Mingyi's mood at this moment was a bit complicated.

Today, she heard the truth from the crown prince that was enough to cause her death. If the crown prince accidentally leaked this matter...

However, she still hopes that the prince can live on.

Because it is not the child who is really at fault.

Besides, even without this incident, as a member of the Xu family, she was not as secure and carefree as she appeared on the surface.

"My lady, there is a message from the East Palace that His Royal Highness's fever has receded." The eunuch said in a fortunate tone.

The queen breathed a sigh of relief, and subconsciously turned to look at Xu Mingyi, only to see that the girl's eyes were also smiling.

"It's good when the heat subsides."

The queen smiled and said, "Thanks to Miss Xu this time, and - is it called Ah Kui, right?"

"Yes, the servant girl is called Ah Kui."

Because she was very good at peeling melon seeds for the girl since she was a child, the girl gave her this name herself.

The queen praised: "You have superb medical skills, but you have saved His Highness twice."

Aoi shook her head quickly.

"No, I don't dare to be a maidservant, my maidservant's medical skills are mediocre..."

The queen just smiled.

If this little maid can only say that her medical skills are mediocre, wouldn't those people in the Tai Hospital all smash themselves against the wall in shame?

"The servant girl just learned a little folk prescription by accident." Ah Kui felt that Cai's denial was too much, and she hastily added in guilt.

"Whether it's a folk remedy or not, it's a good medical skill if it can save people." The queen said in a gentle tone, "It's just that your highness is just recovering from the fever, and you may have to go to the palace a few more times later."

Ah Kui lowered her head and said, "Yes, the servant girl will do her best..."

After leaving the palace with her own girl, she got into the carriage, and Ah Kui's expression finally collapsed: "Girl, I'm afraid of death..."

At first it was just lying at home and pretending, but now it's all pretending in the palace.

"Don't be afraid."

Xu Mingyi patted her on the shoulder, with extremely gentle eyes: "There may be more and more such things in the future, and you will gradually get used to it."

Ah Kui suddenly wanted to cry even more.

"Thank you for your hard work." Xu Mingyi said sincerely.

Aoi quickly shook her head.

"My servant doesn't work hard... It's too late for me to be happy if I can share the girl's worries."

He said, trying to make his expression look happy.

But it seems to be getting harder.

The carriage didn't stop all the way, and returned to the Duke of Zhen's mansion.

As soon as Xu Mingyi got off the carriage with Ah Kui, a voice mixed with surprise came to his ears.

"Miss Xu?"

Xu Mingyi raised his eyes and saw a young man in a royal blue brocade robe inside the gate of his house being escorted out by Mingshi.

The man quickened his pace and walked towards her.

"Respect the king and son."

Xu Mingyi saluted the other party.

"Miss Xu is my benefactor, there is no need to be so polite!" Prince Jing said with a smile.

Now that they were getting closer, Xu Mingyi could smell the alcohol on his body.

Another look at the helpless Ming Shi behind the other party—could it be that Prince Jing was having lunch at their Zhenguo Mansion?

"That day in the palace, Miss Xu saved my life, I came to express my thanks today." Prince Jing's face was full of sincerity.

Xu Mingyi was silent for a moment.

Being involved in such a thing as murdering the prince, although he escaped by luck, he did not hesitate to say anything, and dared to come to the door to thank him with such a pretense... I have to say, this prince respecting the prince is really a man. Really human.

"I originally planned to thank Ms. Xu in person, but who knows that Ms. Xu is not in the mansion today—"

He felt very regretful at the time, and even ate a few glasses of wine, but who would have thought that he met Miss Xu who had returned home at this time. Was this a one-of-a-kind coincidence, was it a hint from heaven that he was destined to be with Miss Xu?

Xu Mingshi quietly rolled his eyes behind his back.

Even if Xu Mingyi was in the mansion, he, a foreigner, could see it if he wanted to?

This prince respecting the prince seems to be out of his mind.

"Your Majesty, you are welcome."

Xu Mingyi bowed slightly, and said, "My son, walk slowly and be careful."

"...?"

He wasn't planning to leave yet.

But the girl in sight has already moved forward.

"Miss Xu, wait..." Prince Jing hurriedly stopped him and said, "In two days, I will be leaving Beijing."

Xu Mingyi nodded.

fine.

This time I can get out of here alive.

"Miss Xu's kindness to me, I will always remember it, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to repay it in the future - this jade pendant will be reserved for Miss Xu as a token of gratitude, if Miss Xu can use me in the future, just call me Someone took this thing and went to Prince Jing's mansion in Yunzhou to spread the word!" King Jing's son took off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it over.

Xu Mingyi looked at him in surprise.

The other party grinned.

Xu Mingshi frowned greatly.

What does it mean that this person gave his daughter a jade pendant in public? Could it be that the toad wants to eat swan meat and wants to go crazy?

No wonder Xu Mingyi was mentioned frequently during the banquet, it turned out to be bad intentions!

Xu Mingshi looked at his unreliable elder sister displeasedly, with a hint of reminder in his eyes.

If she dared to accept it, he would dare to grab it and throw it away on the spot.

When Xu Mingyi was about to refuse, a black shadow suddenly flashed in his peripheral vision.

Just as the word "no need" was out of the mouth, the black shadow swooped in with a cry.

Xu Mingyi took two steps back calmly.

"what!"

Seeing the black shadow rushing towards him, Prince Jing backed away in fright.

It was a vulture!

etc--

Caught in the claws of the big bird...

His jade pendant was snatched away by that big bird!

"Quick, bring it back to me quickly!" Prince Jing hurriedly ordered the servants around him.

But how can a servant catch up with a vulture?

Fortunately, the big bird didn't intend to fly away, but landed steadily on the high wall of Zhen Guogong's mansion.

Prince Jing looked at the jade pendant caught under the sharp claws of the big bird, and said to the servant in fear: "What are you doing so stupidly? Climb up quickly!"

The servants looked at each other.

As if the bird would obediently wait for them to climb up?

But the master's orders can only be followed.

At this time, the sound of horseshoes came from far and near.

One man and one rider soon appeared in the sight of everyone, and the young man in black sitting on the high horse tightened the reins in his hand and stopped. Looking at the scene in front of Duke Zhen's gate, he frowned slightly.

"Wu Shisun?"

King Jing's son turned his head to look, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Respect the king and son."

There was no ups and downs in Wu Chao's tone, and he asked, "I wonder if you have seen a vulture raised by Mr. Wu?"

That guy hasn't eaten or drank for a whole day and night from yesterday afternoon to today. His wings are curled up and his head is curled up in a ball.

He thought of the habit of birds and birds unwilling to be restrained, and his heart softened, so he untied the rope.

But the moment the rope was untied, something magical happened.

The big bird that looked like it was about to die at the last moment, suddenly flapped its powerful wings and flew away from his eyes...

He chased here by instinct.
