C68 Change
"If you don't want to die, then don't move recklessly!" Seeing that there was a broken board on the seat beside the bridge, she quickly took it off and threw it to Qin Ke, "Hold on tight, the others don't run onto the ice, quickly go find some ropes and other objects that can cut through the ice!"
In truth, Qin Ke didn't have the heart to listen to what she said, but when a wooden board suddenly appeared in his line of sight, his instinctive survival consciousness forced her to grab onto it.
When the rope was brought over, Yun Zhui first took off her winter clothes, took a piece of rope, and tied it to her waist. Qin Ke immediately panicked as he looked at the rope in the icy water, "You didn't throw it over when you got it? Do you want me to die!?" Although she was so cold that even her speech began to tremble, she was still unable to restrain her anger towards Yun Shu. However, just as she finished shouting, the ice beside her cracked even more.
Yun Shu reached out to grab the rope. "Drag these two ropes to the other end. If you don't want me to become a ghost and visit you every day, then don't ever let go." He asked for another chisel.
She held onto the rope, while Dong Yi and the chisel lay prone on the ice for a dozen or so times before they finally reached Qin Ke Ren, who was about to speak again, "I know you really want to curse right now, but if you want to live, it's better to avoid wasting your breath." Seeing that Qin Keke had pitifully bit her lower lip and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth, she used a chisel to dig into the irregular opening at the edge of the hole. Only after she had almost cut off all the sharp horns did she place a piece of winter clothing around the hole to isolate the remaining small ice spikes from Qin Keren's body.
Qin Ke's lips turned purple from the cold, but he still couldn't believe that the person in front of him really wanted to save her. "You really want to save me?"
"Actually, the reason I used a rope to tie you up was so that they would be able to pull you up. When they pull you up, they can cut you in half and cut you off from the armpits." She really didn't want to hear any more of Qin Ke's nonsense. Right now, her heart was already quite annoyed.
Qin Ke was frightened by her words and his face paled even more. When Yun Zhui waved for the people on the shore to retract the rope and pull her onto the surface of the ice, she didn't even make a sound when her exposed hand came in contact with the surface of the ice.
After about an hour, the two finally left the surface of the ice.
Just as Yun Zhui had untied the string on her body, someone handed her a bowl of ginger soup. After drinking it, she returned the bowl to Xiao Heng and realized it was from Xiao Heng. The "thank you" that she was about to let out choked in her throat, "I hope that your highness will take good care of your younger cousin. With that, she squeezed out of the crowd and left. She didn't notice that the expression on the face of Qin Ke Ren, who was behind her, changed in the slightest when he looked at her back.
Xiao Heng had noticed that subtle change. Suddenly, he felt that his manor had become more and more interesting since someone had arrived. The corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl into a faint smile.
After learning the news, the Qin Province brought along a fox fur coat for Qin Ke, who had just finished drinking the ginger soup. Only then did he bring his little sister back to her warm room.
Qin Ke could feel that her senses were gradually recovering before she thought of Xiao Heng. However, she didn't know when he had disappeared. It was obvious that he had come to her room together with her, so she couldn't help but feel slightly disappointed.
The sound of the door opening startled the several maidservants who were busy preparing for Qin Ke Ren. When they turned to look, they found that Qin Prefecture had brought in the medicine prescribed by the doctor. Qin Ke thought it would be Xiao Heng, and when he saw the newcomer, he could not help but feel even more disappointed. As the elder brother of the Qin Province, he was naturally able to see through his younger sister's thoughts. He let out a long sigh as he placed the soup on the table. "Why are you asking for trouble?"
"I just can't accept it. Big brother, when I first met Your Highness at the age of six, I decided to not marry him. Now, with Zi Yun on the left and Lady Yun on the right, I can't find a seat of my own. " As she spoke further, the smile on her face became more sorrowful.
"There is no absolute in this world. One day, you might be able to let it go. I have spent more time with the Prince than with you, so I understand him better. As his elder brother, I really don't want you to marry the Prince. "
Qin Keke asked, "Why? Don't you want me to be happy?"
"It is because I hope that you will be blessed that I do not wish you to marry the Prince. Compared to those girls who only know how to be careful, he is more likely to fall in love with those girls who disdain scheming. Perhaps it is because he is tired of those girls himself, and he actually does not trust anyone. "Drink the medicine while it's hot, then sleep well after drinking it. I'll tell Qiu Hui and the rest to guard outside the room later. Think about it when you're free. Once you've thought it through, we'll move back to Qin Manor." Then he went out.
However, Qin Ke didn't consider the direction that his elder brother hoped for. Instead, he made a new plan after his body recovered.
"Sorry, what did you say just now?" Yun Shu was so frightened that she immediately put down the account book in her hands and raised her head to look at Qin Ke Ren. Her first thought was that she might have heard wrong, how could Qin Ke say these words?
She even suspected that Qin Ke had been possessed — this was how the legends were played out. After going through a calamity, the two of them would notice each other's bodies. Miss Qin was a delicate person, so if she fell into ice water, she might also be possessed.
"I apologize to Miss Yun for all her previous actions against her. I hope that she can forgive my capricious ignorance. "If it's possible, I hope that Lady Yun can become close friends with such a charming person."
"…" She unexpectedly did not show any hallucinations, "Miss Qin, are you sure your illness has completely recovered? Is there anything else you don't feel well about? "
Qin Ke shook his head, "Miss Yun, I am serious. Before, I did everything I could to make things difficult for you, and you even unhesitatingly saved me. But no matter how stupid a person is, he knows he cannot repay kindness with hatred. As he spoke, he called Qiu Hui, who was behind him, to take out the pastries from the basket and place them on the table.
Yun Shu still couldn't believe that Qin Ke really wasn't targeting her, but she still picked up a piece of Cloud Piece Cake and took a small bite.
Seeing her frown slightly, Qin Ke hurriedly asked: "Is it bad?" Actually... "This is my first time making food, it might be a little stinky, if it's stinky it's fine, I'll make it for you next time …" As he spoke, he reached over to grab the Cloud Cake on his plate to try it.
Yun Shu immediately brought a plate in front of her. "No, it's quite tasty." It was just a bit too sweet, but if Qin Ke's food was still very sweet the next time, she would have to eat it again.
Seeing her finish off a plate of Cloud Piece Cake, Qin Ke's eyes widened in disbelief. "So Miss Yun ate so fast …"
Yun Shu gave two hollow laughs, "Perhaps I'm already used to it." The barracks was a place where one could only eat for a quarter of an hour at a time. If one didn't want to starve, one really couldn't be as slow as one would be at home.
Qin Ke nodded thoughtfully and looked at the only hairpin on her head. "Miss Yun doesn't seem to like using hair accessories. It must be that the maidservants didn't take care of her and didn't prepare anything for her, right? "I'll go to the street and help Miss Yun choose a few later. What kind of things does Miss Yun like?"
Yun Shu: "Actually, it's because I find it too time-consuming to make other hairpins, that's why I use a hairpin to make my hair into a bun."
After hearing her answer, Qin Ke suddenly leaned in front of her, stared at her lips and nodded, "That's right, Miss Yun doesn't seem to have any lipstick. Could it be that the housekeeper has too many things to do, and is so busy that you don't have time to dress up? I'll go and talk to His Highness later, and have him reduce Miss Yun's work. "
Yun Shu: "Actually, I don't really like those things on my own …" Being used to being in the military camp made them feel like a burden when applied to the face.
Qin Ke smiled and said, "Lady Yun is indeed different from ordinary women. If that's the case, then I won't disturb Lady Yun anymore." "Qiu Hui, let's go back."
Qiu Hui quickly returned the plate to the basket and left with Qin Ke.
What caused Yun Shu to feel even more astonished was that when they were eating dinner together at night, Qin Ke had changed from the demeanor of a young miss to when he was quickly sweeping away all the dishes in front of him.
Although the quantity of each dish wasn't too much, it was impossible for Qin Ke to eat all of one in the past, not to mention when there was still half a bowl of rice left in Xiao Hong's bowl. She was clearly imitating her actions of eating … However, why did Qin Ke want to learn from her? This made Yun Shu very puzzled.
Zi Yun, who was standing to the side, had already become stupefied. He began to suspect that Qin Ke's abnormal actions were because of the cold that had damaged his brain. He couldn't help but scoffed at her improper conduct.
When people see someone doing something similar to them, they feel like looking in a mirror, and that's what Yun Shu feels like right now. Normally, no one ate as fast as she did, but she still didn't realize how inappropriate her eating was. Moreover, she was currently facing the royal family at the dining table. When she saw how Qin Ke was eating, she felt that something wasn't quite right and immediately felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles.
Fortunately, someone came to pass on a message to Xiao Heng in a short while. After Xiao Heng left his seat and went to his study, she quickly slipped away as well.
She had not expected that when she passed by the study, she would coincidentally bump into the person who had sent the message. Yun Shu did not have the time to dodge, and was knocked by that person, causing her to immediately sit on the ground.
