Chapter 223 I Want to Help You
When Su Lingyue returned to the palace, it was already dark. She had walked a lot today, and after delivering all the posts, Su Lingyue felt like her feet were no longer her own.
She had never walked so much since she was born. Although it was very tiring, she was very happy as long as she could help Xiao Yu.
New big red lanterns have been hung outside the palace, and red silk hydrangeas have been tied to the stone lions.
When you enter the mansion, you will see red lanterns all along the corridors, red silk hydrangeas tied under the eaves, and paper-cut "Shou" characters pasted on the windows.
When Su Lingyue arrived at the hall, she saw Xiao Yu sitting there drinking tea, Yan Qing was talking excitedly, and Yun Ting was standing behind Xiao Yu with his arms folded.
"Your Majesty."
Hearing Su Lingyue's voice, Xiao Yu turned his head to look at her. Seeing that Su Lingyue was walking with a limp, he quickly stood up and walked to Su Lingyue's side.
"Yue'er, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Yu stood up and came over to support her, asking with concern.
"It's okay, I just walked too much." Su Lingyue smiled and asked Yan Qing: "Is everything ready?"
"Don't worry, Princess. Everything is ready as you said!" Yan Qing replied with a smile.
"what are you guys saying?"
Xiao Yu looked at Yan Qing in confusion, and finally moved his gaze back to Su Lingyue. He looked at Su Lingyue with an inquiring expression, waiting for Su Lingyue to give him an answer.
"Your Majesty, please get ready and accept everyone's congratulations tomorrow! The palace will probably be packed with guests tomorrow!"
Su Lingyue smiled and blinked at Xiao Yu, her bright eyes sparkling.
Xiao Yu understood what Su Lingyue, who had disappeared for the whole afternoon, had been doing. He looked straight at Su Lingyue, and a warm feeling filled his chest. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
"Yue'er must be hungry, let's go have dinner." Xiao Yu looked at Su Lingyue gently and said softly.
"Okay." Su Lingyue nodded.
After running around for an entire afternoon, she was indeed hungry, and her steps seemed a little unsteady when she walked.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Yu simply picked her up and carried her sideways.
Perhaps because he used too much force, Xiao Yu was a little out of breath when he stood up.
Seeing this, Su Lingyue wanted to get down from Xiao Yu's arms. Xiao Yu held her, stopped and panted, and whispered, "It's okay, I'll just rest for a while."
Xiao Yu rubbed his chin against Su Lingyue's forehead, breathing lightly, and his arms holding Su Lingyue trembled slightly.
Su Lingyue's heart was also trembling and in great pain, but she could do nothing. She could only watch Xiao Yu recover his strength bit by bit.
She stopped struggling and obediently let him hold her without saying anything else.
After catching his breath for a while, Xiao Yu seemed to feel better and walked towards the dining hall carrying Su Lingyue.
When they arrived at the dining hall, Xiao Yu gently put Su Lingyue down and told the servant to serve the food.
While eating, Xiao Yu probably thought Su Lingyue was someone who hadn't eaten for several days, and kept picking up food and feeding her.
Finally, after Su Lingyue protested by rubbing her belly, Xiao Yu smiled and stopped his unscrupulous feeding behavior.
When they returned to Furong Pavilion, Su Lingyue insisted on not letting Xiao Yu hug her again. Instead, she held Xiao Yu's hand and they slowly walked towards the bedroom.
"Did Yue'er go to deliver the invitations this afternoon?"
"Well, this is the first birthday I've spent with you. I want your birthday to be lively and I want you to be happy on every birthday."
"How many invitations have been sent out today?"
"Not many, just over 30. Don't worry, I didn't invite anyone from my father's side, and I didn't invite that annoying Han Feng either. I only invited people with good reputations."
Su Lingyue chuckled, her laughter was cute and lively, and it was a joy that came from the bottom of her heart.
"Yue'er, thank you."
"Your Majesty, we are husband and wife, you are welcome."
Xiao Yu turned his head to look at the petite body beside him, and the corners of his lips rose unconsciously.
Su Lingyue looked up to meet his gaze and gently shook the hand she was holding with Xiao Yu. As Su Lingyue moved, Xiao Yu smiled faintly.
When being with Su Lingyue, Xiao Yu always felt inexplicably happy.
She is like a spring breeze, like a little sun. All the haze and unhappiness will flee when they meet her.
Back at Furong Pavilion, Xia Heqiulu had already poured hot water into the bathtub, and Su Lingyue also urged Xiao Yu to take a bath.
After Xiao Yu left, Su Lingyue frowned and said, "Caiyi, my feet hurt a little."
Seeing Su Lingyue's expression, Caiyi hurriedly squatted down to take off Su Lingyue's shoes and check the situation.
When Caiyi saw the blood on Su Lingyue's socks, her eyes turned red, "Miss, your feet are bleeding."
Caidie came over after hearing this and saw a bloodstain on the sole of Su Lingyue's socks. She quickly took off the other shoe and saw the same thing.
"Miss, this foot too."
Su Lingyue looked down, but because she was at the bottom of her feet, she couldn't see anything.
She only whispered, "Really? Caidie, help me take the shoes and socks out later. Don't let the prince see them."
Caiyi nodded, and together with Caiyi, she carefully took off the socks that were stuck to the soles of her feet.
The socks were stuck to the wound. When taking off the socks, Su Lingyue gritted her teeth without making any sound, but still shed tears in pain.
Xiao Yu listened to Su Lingyue's sobs, and his drooped eyes trembled.
He knew how painful it would be to have his socks torn off from his skin. Although he was not injured at the moment, he felt as if he had experienced the pain of having his clothes torn off from his skin twice.
"My Lord, do you want to go in and see the princess?"
"No, go and invite Uncle Lu over and ask him to bring some medicine for external injuries."
Yan Qing responded and walked out of Furong Pavilion.
Because of the injury on the sole of her foot, Su Lingyue couldn't take a bath, so she could only sit on a stool and let Caidie Caiyi simply wipe her body with a wet towel.
After taking a shower, Su Lingyue had just put on her clothes and sat on the bed when she heard Doctor Lu's voice coming from outside.
"Yue girl, let me see your feet!"
Su Lingyue was stunned, not knowing what had happened and how Dr. Lu would know about her.
But considering her current condition, it would be better to have a doctor to help her, so she asked Caiyi to open the door and invite Doctor Lu in.
"Uncle Lu, when did the prince tell you this?" Su Lingyue asked curiously.
"Just now, I asked Yan Qing to come over." As he spoke, Doctor Lu had already put down the medicine box.
Caiyi hurriedly brought a stool and placed it beside the bed. Doctor Lu sat down beside the bed. When he saw Su Lingyue's feet, he also gasped.
"Two pieces of skin fell off my feet. What have you been doing?"
Su Lingyue smiled and said vaguely: "It's nothing, I just walked a little today, and I didn't expect it to be like this. Uncle Lu, please help me apply medicine, it hurts."
Doctor Lu didn't say anything. He applied medicine to her foot, bandaged it with a clean white cloth, reminded her of some precautions, and left.
Su Lingyue felt distressed when she saw Caidie and Caiyi, who looked exhausted. They had walked the same distance as her today. Although there was nothing unusual about their walking, they must have been very tired.
Then he said softly: "Cai Die, Cai Yi, you two can go back and have a rest. I'm fine now."
The two sisters did not refuse, picked up their bloodstained shoes and socks and left the bedroom.
Su Lingyue sat on the bed, gently pinching her sore calves.
When Xiao Yu came back, he saw Su Lingyue's feet wrapped in cloth and asked softly, "Does your foot hurt?"
Su Lingyue smiled and said, "It hurt a little at the beginning, but now that I've taken the medicine, it doesn't hurt anymore."
"Yue'er, come here."
Xiao Yu took off his coat and cloak, sat down on the bed and held Su Lingyue in his arms.
Xiao Yu didn't say anything, just gently massaged her calves.
"How is it?" Xiao Yu asked gently, with a faint smile on Ruyu's face.
"Very comfortable." Su Lingyue leaned on Xiao Yu's shoulder and let him massage her calves.
Xiao Yu lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something, but his hands never stopped moving.
Su Lingyue just looked at his profile quietly.
As if noticing Su Lingyue's gaze, Xiao Yu turned his head and looked at her gently.
"Yue'er, don't do this again next time."
"Your Highness doesn't like it?" Su Lingyue asked puzzledly.
"No, it hurts to see you like this."
"I will feel bad for you, Your Highness. Now that I have the opportunity to make your life easier, it's worth it no matter how hard it is."
With Xiao Yu's means, it would be easy for him to ask for help from someone if he needed it, but she wanted Xiao Yu to make more gentle choices, make fewer enemies, and suffer less.
Xiao Yu understood Su Lingyue's good intentions. His inky dark eyes looked straight at the person in his arms. Seeing her sincere look, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
Holding the back of Su Lingyue's neck with his big hand, Xiao Yu gave Su Lingyue a light kiss on the forehead, then looked at her bright eyes, straight nose, and rosy lips.
The joy in his heart overcame his reason. Xiao Yu stopped struggling and let his desire be released. He put Su Lingyue down and kissed her.
The burning breaths entangled with each other, the warm and soft lips rubbed against each other, Xiao Yu bit the soft lips gently, still not satisfied, he wanted to swallow the person in his arms into his stomach. Forcefully prying open the pearly teeth, Xiao Yu deepened this lingering kiss.
The big hand on Su Lingyue's waist also began to wander, and as the fingers gently pinched and twisted, a low whimpering sound was heard.
