First Lady of the Crown Prince Chapter 976

Chapter 976 Emotional (Xinyang VS Xiao Jifan)

 “Little princess!”

The guard's report came from outside the camp.

 “Get out of the way! I want to see the Marquis!”

The little princess of Dongyi said unruly and willfully.

Princess Xinyang glanced at Xiao Ji. Xiao Ji took the towel and gold sore medicine in her hand, wiped the water droplets on her slowly, and then started to apply medicine on her.

"Zhen..." Princess Xinyang opened her mouth and said, "She is coming in."

"Can't come in." Xiao Ji said lightly. He dipped his fingertips in the ointment and applied it evenly on her chilblains. This ointment was very effective. The only drawback was that the color was not good-looking and it was very sticky. It is not easy to wash off.

Princess Xinyang's fingertips are delicate and she loves to keep them clean. If she were asked to wash them, she would not be able to remove even a layer of skin.

Soon, the stamping and cooing sounds of the little princess of Dongyi came from outside the camp: "You dare to stop me! I think you are tired of living! After a while, the Marquis will come out, and I will let him deal with you!"

Princess Xinyang looked at Xiao Ji without leaving any trace. Xiao Ji applied medicine to her seriously, but seemed to feel her doubts and scrutiny, and said lightly: "The military camp has military camp rules. You are not allowed to enter the general's tent at will."

 He is not so used to the little princess of Dongyi, otherwise the guards around him would not have the courage to stop people outside.

 But others didn't know this clearly. Seeing that he was more tolerant towards the little princess of Dongyi, they had some guesses in private.

“Only you and Chang Jing have come in.” Xiao Ji said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Long Yi came in with his head tilted.

The guards...the guards couldn't stop him at all.

The medicine has been applied. Xiao Ji pulled the quilt to cover her feet and asked Long: "Are you hungry?"

 Long Yi said: "Well, I'm hungry."

Xiao Ji said to her, "I'll take Long Yi to eat. What do you want to eat?"

Princess Xinyang asked: "What do you have here?"

Xiao Ji laughed at himself, yes, what is there in the military camp?

There was a snowstorm in the east, and the food and supplies could not be delivered smoothly. It would be good to have something to eat. Where else could I choose?

He said: "You have a rest for a while, I will bring it to you later."

"Master Marquis, you are going out at such a late hour..." At the door, the guard looked at Marquis Xuanping strangely, holding a bow and arrow and riding a tall horse. He didn't understand what Marquis Xuanping was doing in the middle of the night when he was ready to go.

 Is it a night attack on the enemy camp?

 Why are you alone?

To spy on military intelligence?

What are you bringing a bow and arrow for?

Xiao Ji tightened the reins and said calmly: "Well, I will go out for a while. No one else is allowed to approach the military camp for a hundred steps, and those who fail to dissuade him will be killed without mercy!"

 “Yes!” The guard raised his hands and solemnly responded.

Xiao Ji rode his horse and disappeared into the flying snow.

He was not there to spy on the military situation, nor was he going to raid the enemy camp at night. Instead, he rode his horse into a deep mountain forest and hunted a wild deer.

 At night, there was a steaming bowl of steamed buns in venison soup on Princess Xinyang's table.

Princess Xinyang started to eat vegetarian food a few years ago. After becoming pregnant with Yiyi, she resumed a meat-vegetarian diet to supplement her nutrition. Yiyi was weaned at one year old, and she stopped eating meat after she stopped feeding Yiyi.

 But in such a bitter cold place, drinking more broth and eating more meat can better resist the severe cold.

Princess Xinyang also understood this and silently picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.

Thought of something, she looked at Xiao Ji who was sitting beside him wiping his weapon and asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"

 “I've eaten it,” Xiao Ji said.

After a few mouthfuls of venison soup, Princess Xinyang felt warm all over. A thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead, and the tip of her nose was sparkling.

 “How is everything going on here?” she asked.

Xiao Ji wiped his sword with a cloth and said lightly: "The battle is almost over."

 “Where are Xiao Ming and the others?” she continued.

 She used them, obviously not asking Xiao Ming alone.

The Marquis of Xuanping had two concubines. When Princess Xinyang refused to marry him, the old lady couldn't bear to see him lose their relationship, so she stuffed two aunts into his room, and then Xiao En and Xiao Ze came to be.

Although they were concubines, the old lady who could not hope to have legitimate children loved the two of them very much and kept them under her knees.

In the past, their relationship between husband and wife was as cold as ice. Princess Xinyang didn't care about his concubine.

Later, the old lady's health was not very good, so Xiao En and Xiao Ze went to the military camp. A few years later, they came to the east again, and they had no contact with Princess Xinyang.

Xiao Ji said: "Xiao Ming was poisoned and fell unconscious. The antidote is in the hands of the Dongyi people. Xiao En and Xiao Ze are guarding Donglin Pass."

Princess Xinyang nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said: "I always thought Xiao Ming was just injured."

Xiao Ji said calmly: "The Dongyi people are very cunning. The wound looked normal at first, but it took half a month to gradually show signs of poisoning."

Princess Xinyang asked: "Did you agree to negotiate peace with the Dongyi people because of Xiao Ming's antidote?"

Xiao Ji wiped his sword and said, "The Xiao family is never threatened. Xiao Ming can die, but the spines of Zhao Kingdom soldiers cannot be bent."

Princess Xinyang felt the strong morale from him. Her eyes moved and she asked: "Then you still-"

"A delaying tactic." Xiao Ji looked at the polished sword, and the cold light reflected on his pair of narrow phoenix eyes, giving a layer of coldness to his eyes, "Tomorrow I will attack the Dongyi people. , you stay in the military camp and don't run around."

 “Let Long Yi go with you.”

"Need not."

Xiao Ji put the long sword back into its scabbard. When he saw that she had finished eating, he took out the bowl and chopsticks.

Princess Xinyang looked at the simple tent and saw that Marquis Xuanping had grown up well-fed and well-clothed. It was hard to imagine that he suffered such hardships at the border.

There were several small holes in the tent. Fragments of moonlight fell together with the cold wind. Suddenly, something covered the holes.

—Xiao Ji repaired the tent.

Princess Xinyang sat on the hard bed, listening to the sound of Xiao Ji talking to the soldiers outside.

"Don't do this again next time. It's very dangerous. If you run into a Dongyi people's trap, you'll be in trouble!"

 Princess Xinyang glanced at the piece of roasted venison Xiao Ji left for her on the table.

“Who is that person?” the soldier asked again.

 “My wife,” Xiao Ji said.

 After that, the soldiers didn't think about it anymore.

After Xiao Ji finished repairing the tent and returned to the camp, Princess Xinyang asked with a normal expression: "Where did Long Yi go?"

Xiao Ji replied: "I went to Chang Jing's tent, which is right next door."

 “I tonight...”

 “You sleep here.”

"and you…"

 “Of course I'll sleep here too.”

Princess Xinyang's eyelashes trembled slightly and her lips moved a few times, but she didn't say anything about not letting him sleep with her.

The military camp had limited supplies, the beds were cold and hard, and the quilts were thin and damp.

Princess Xinyang lay beside him stiffly, her hands and feet were cold.

The atmosphere in the military camp is quite different from that in the capital. He is less cynical and unrestrained, and more serious and fierce than a battlefield general.

At this time, he teased her a few words without hesitation.

 He closed his eyes and planned tomorrow's deployment in his mind.

 “Xiao Ji.” Princess Xinyang spoke in a low voice.

 “What's wrong?” He got out of his thoughts about the battle in time.

Princess Xinyang's throat slipped, she pinched her fingers nervously, and asked in a low voice: "...I'm cold."

In the past, he would have said to her in a trembling voice: "Qin Fengwan, if you want me to hug you, just say so."

 But he didn't.

He just shook her hand under the quilt and found that she was very cold, so he moved the quilt on his side towards her: "Is this better?"

 “It's still cold.” Princess Xinyang said.

 In the darkness, he hesitated for a moment, stretched out his strong arms, and took her into his arms.

His masculine aura rushed to her face and enveloped her all of a sudden.

He unbuttoned his clothes and let her cold hands touch his warm chest. He then moved his legs and placed her ice-like feet on his warm long legs.

 “Is this better?” he asked.

Princess Xinyang's cheeks felt a little hot. She thought maybe this man was too angry.

 She nodded and responded very weakly: "Yes."

 "Qin Fengwan, don't move."

 “I didn't move.”

 “Your feet.”

"The frostbite area is so itchy." She couldn't help but rub it on his calf, but that wasn't called moving, right?

She stretched her hand down to scratch it, but as she slid down, she accidentally encountered a terrible beast. She was startled and her face turned red!

Xiao Ji's voice was a little hoarse: "I told you not to move."

She choked and said angrily: "I didn't touch your place!"

Xiao Ji stared at her deeply in the darkness and asked in a hoarse voice: "Qin Fengwan, are you healed?"

 Princess Xinyang was startled.

 Her illness...her inability to have contact with men...

 At this moment, she was being held in the arms of a man without any gaps.

 She is not sick.

 No, she seems to be sick after all.

Her heart was beating hard, thumping like a deer that kept bumping into her.

Her head was buzzing, her mouth was dry, and she could hardly breathe.
