Chapter 408 The Disfigured Attendant
The name of the illegitimate son who was sent for marriage is Yun Qi... Tsk, he is really an abandoned son who was abandoned by his family. He even gave his name so casually. Sang Luo felt a little more affection for this young man he had never met before.
Sang Luo remembered the identity of the servant just now. He was the personal servant of Yun Qi Shijun, Kong.
Kong was brought over by Yun Qi from his family. The two had a friendship that shared weal and woe.
After Yun Qi lost his eyes, Kong has been taking care of him personally. Originally, the servant was not favored by the princess, and most of the servants in the mansion were very picky about the dishes and treated the master and servant in a difficult way. It is conceivable how difficult the situation for the two of them is now, and Kong will never leave her, and they are loyal.
Sang Luo called his servants to inquire and found out the reason.
Yun·Qi Shijun has stayed in his room all day since his eyes were gouged out and rarely goes out. Early this morning, he said he wanted to go out for a walk to get some fresh air. On the way, he said he was thirsty and left. When Kong came back, he found that his servant was missing.
Kong searched the princess's house but couldn't find anyone. He was afraid that something might happen to the servant, so he had to come to the princess to save him. But Ji Wan had no mercy after hearing the news, and ordered no one in the house to help him, otherwise they would be punished for the same crime!
As soon as these words came out, no one dared to help, for fear of being implicated and falling into the same fate as Shijun.
In this way, the scene just now appeared.
Sang Luo rubbed his forehead.
Headache.
......
Now is the cold moon season, the sky is gloomy, the snow is getting heavier and heavier, the scattered snow has turned into heavy snow, and the bare branches and leaves are bent. The waist and roofs were covered with half an inch of snow, and the lake surface was covered with mirror-like ice.
Sang Luo wore a lotus red fur-collared cloak, holding a small incense burner to warm her hands, and went out for a walk surrounded by several waiters.
She walked quickly and looked around, as if she was looking for something.
"Your Highness, slow down, be careful of the cold weather and slippery roads!"
The two tried to hold up the heavy skirts and almost couldn't keep up.
Sang Luo ran to the bank of Dongxin Lake.
His face was red, he was breathing lightly, and he clenched his cloak tightly in his palms. The body of this pampered princess is actually a little weak, and after all, it is not as good as her original body.
The largest man-made lake in the mansion is covered with white snow. The surface of the lake has already formed a layer of ice. There is an inconspicuous corner at the back but it is empty. It is not obvious under the color of the snow. The melted snow has condensed into thin flakes. The ice is slowly condensing and forming.
"You guys! Go down and save people!" she shouted.
The servants are dumbfounded, save people? Who to save?
Is there anyone under the lake? !
No one thought about the missing servant. After all, everyone knew how much Her Royal Highness hated this illegitimate son of the fox clan by marriage. She took pleasure in torturing him every day and wished he was dead. Well, let alone because he looked so anxious.
A muscular nutria orc took off his coat and plunged into the water.
Under the broken light blue ice, the cold lake water ripples.
How could a blind man want to go out for a walk on a snowy day? He was afraid that he would find an opportunity to commit suicide!
Yun Qi Zai is not favored by the princess no matter how much he is, he is still a servant, and there are many eyes on him on weekdays. The princess will not allow such unlucky things like death to happen in the palace. He even wants to commit suicide. It's not easy, you can die quietly by jumping into the lake.
How desperate the young man must be to want to end his life and escape from all this.
Soon, the nutria orc dragged a slender boy onto the shore.
Both of them were soaked to the skin. As soon as they came into contact with the cold air outside, their bodies quickly condensed into crushed ice.
The nutria orcs were shivering from the cold. Sang Luo had someone throw him a thick coat and gave him a few beast crystals, "This is for you." "Thank you princess. Your Highness!"
Sang Luo looked at the unconscious young man on the ground again.
He was wearing a thin white suit, and his messy black hair was completely soaked, covering most of his face. His hair was frozen in ice, and his whole body was swollen and purple from the cold, and he was almost unrecognizable. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall in his chest, no one would suspect that this was a dead person.
"You guys, carry him back to the room! Call the witch doctor in the house! As soon as possible!"
"Yes! Princess."
There are two The strong animal servants hurriedly took the man back, and the witch doctor arrived soon. With the order of Her Royal Highness, no one dared to treat this matter lightly.
It was not until three days later that Sang Luo heard the news that Yun Qi Shijun had woken up. She had someone bring some supplements and send them to the west courtyard.
"Why does Your Highness the Princess care about that servant?" the servant who had served for many years asked curiously.
Sang Luo chewed melon seeds and said casually, "After all, I am the Servant whom I have legitimately married. I have only been here for a long time. If I really died in my princess's house without any explanation, wouldn't I Becoming the laughing stock of the whole world? How will dad face Jiu? Didn’t the interrogation from the Tailed Fox Clan leave them with a clue?”
No matter how little the Nine-tailed Fox Clan paid attention to this illegitimate child, Yun Qi is also a child of the clan, the clan leader’s. If word spreads about his biological son, it will bring bad reputation to both clans.
The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan might even pretend to be affectionate, pursue this matter, and demand compensation from the Red Fox Clan.
Princess Ji Wan is cruel and domineering, but she is not a fool. This behavior is also in line with her personality.
Selfishly, Sang Luo really pities this young man. Calculating the timeline, Yan should be his young master now, and the young man can be regarded as his biological brother.
Aiwu and Wu are on the one hand. If the death of the boy really turns the Nine-tailed Fox Clan and the Red Fox Clan into enemies, and Yan and the princess are separated from each other by a kin-killing feud, how will they develop in the future?
Everything she did should be based on the original story line of time and space.
Sang Luo thought for a while, got up and walked out, "That's all, I have nothing to do today, so I will stop by to see him, so that he will not disturb my peace by looking for life and death again in the future."
“I will change your clothes for Your Highness.”
……
West courtyard.
The young man who had just recovered from a long illness stood in front of the window. The plum blossoms outside the window were in full bloom, and the branches were covered with snow.
He was wearing a white lining and a dark blue robe draped over his shoulders. His slightly dry dark hair fell behind him. His figure was thin and frail, as if he would fall down if the wind blew.
He opened his palms, and a few pieces of snow fell on them, slowly melting...
When Sang Luo came over, he saw such a beautiful scene, and stopped slightly.
Just as the servants were about to bow and salute, she came back to her senses, put a finger on her lips, and whispered "Shh".
The young man had heard the footsteps long ago and turned around to salute, "Your Highness, please greet me."
Sang Luo was stunned when he saw his face clearly. He didn't notice it the last time they met. Half of his face was disfigured, and his voice was hoarse and mocking, which was unbearable to listen to.
No wonder the princess doesn't like him.
Sang Luo looked at the young man's closed eyes and said calmly, "Do you know it's me?"
"I recognize the princess's footsteps." Yun Qi said neither humble nor arrogantly, but Sang Luo caught a glimpse of him hiding behind The fingers in his sleeves clenched and trembled slightly, he was afraid of the princess.
