Chapter 2 — Kinh Thao

Inside the box are all sorts of miscellaneous items, all of which Tieu Hanh accidentally left behind for me over the years. Lying on top is a lock of hair tied with a red string. That year, while I was fast asleep, Tieu Hanh secretly cut a lock of my hair, then cut a lock of his own hair and tied it together. He said, that's called marrying each other's hair and making them happy as husband and wife. I was angry and wanted to burn it, but he snatched it away and insisted on stuffing it into my jewelry box. Now the red wire has been removed. My lock of hair was long ago thrown into the fire by my own hands. In the box, only his hair remained. Cong Cong Thich flipped through it a few times, the wrinkles on his face gradually drooped. "Why... are they all your majesty's things?" I smiled. "Now that I'm about to leave the palace, continuing to keep these things is no longer in accordance with the rules." "Moreover, the person that Your Majesty truly loves is about to enter the palace. If I still keep your personal things, in case she grasps a weakness and uses it to keep me, then it wouldn't be good." Cong Cong Thich held the box, his face grimacing. like a bitter melon fruit. "If there is any misunderstanding, you should make it clear... Or should you personally bring it to your Majesty?" I bowed my head and rearranged the medical books I had just found. "No need." "Why not need it? If you keep going like that, you will definitely regret it later."Regret? In this life, there is only one thing that makes me regret the most. That was the year that saved Tieu Hanh. … The first time I met Tieu Hanh was in the deep mountains of Man Chau. That day I went into the mountain to pick herbs, and from afar I heard the sound of swords clashing. Several men in black chased a young man whose whole body was covered in blood and death all the way down the mountainside. They did not recognize the medicinal ingredients, where the blade swept, the royal crystal, the worm, and the golden lotus were all cut into pieces. I looked so heartbroken that I took a deep breath. It takes at least three to five years for those medicinal herbs to mature, but how many times in a human life can there be three or five years! So I deliberately spread toxic wind-inducing powder right on the path they would definitely pass through. The group of people in black were so burned by the poisonous wind that they scattered all over the mountain, the sound of curses rang out in the sky. Taking advantage of the chaos, I dragged the person being chased into a cave where medicinal materials were stored. Sitting in the cave holding blood for him, the more I thought about it, the more I regretted it. There were seven knife wounds on his body, and half an arrow was still stuck in his shoulder. It took a lot of medicine to save him. Hole. It's a big hole. However, the first thing after waking up was to put the dagger on my neck. "Who are you?" I rolled my eyes. "Your ancestor." He slowly lowered the dagger, a smile appeared in his eyes. "You have really big guts. Do you know who my ancestor is?" "I need to know for sure?" I pointed to the wound on his body. "But before you bleed to death, remember to pay. Please give me some medicine first." He bowed his head, only then did he realize that he was wrapped up like a bun. Over the next few days, besides bringing him rice and changing his food, I never gave him a gentle face. He asked me what my name was, I replied it had nothing to do with you. He asked why I saved him, I said it was because he crushed my medicine, and if I didn't save him, no one would compensate me. He complained that the medicine was too bitter, so I added double the royal lotus. Who would have thought that this guy really has a thick skin. The more ferocious I am, the more he likes to cling to me. When I dry my hair, he will help me turn my face. The night we went into the mountain to pick herbs, he also carried a lamp and quietly followed behind. One time I almost slipped and fell into the abyss, but he promptly pulled me back. Because of that, the wound on his shoulder cracked open and hurt so much that his face turned pale, but he still smiled and asked: "Can Mieu, are you touched?" It was because he secretly looked at my medicine box that's why he knew my name. Ta

Lifted his foot and kicked hard at his wound, smiling brightly and asked: "Do you see anything?" He recuperated at my house for half a month. The day we left, someone came to pick us up at the foot of the mountain. A white young man stood outside the door, impatiently pacing back and forth. "Third... Third young master, if you don't go, you won't be able to make it in time!" Tieu Hanh walked a few steps and then turned back. "Can Mieu, are you really not following me?" "Get out." "Don't you want to know my name?" "Get out." His face was ugly, but he still hesitated to leave. I had to wave to him. His eyes immediately lit up and he leaned closer. I immediately took a towel soaked in anesthetic and forcefully covered his mouth and nose. Before passing out, he glared at me in disbelief. I happily called that little guy to carry him away, thinking I would never see that annoying guy again in this life. Unexpectedly, later on, he was deceived by a person who came to the capital and then entered the royal palace. When he raised his head, the person sitting on the long chair was an extremely familiar face. That night, he pressed me down on the bed and told me over and over again that his name was Tieu Hanh. Thich Cong Cong was gone for less than half an hour before returning. At that time, I was stuffing the last medical book into my luggage. Hearing the noise, I didn't even bother to raise my head. But this time, Cong Thich's voice was cold and hard. "By your Majesty's orders, tonight the palace maid testing Lady Cat must attend the banquet, don't forget your duty." The movements on my hand stopped for a moment. I have been by Tieu Hanh's side for five years. It's not like he never mentioned ordaining me. Not long after I entered the palace, he ordered the Ministry of Rites to prepare the royal edict for concubine concubine. The investiture ceremony is scheduled for three days later. That night, Tieu Hanh was extremely happy. He lifted my chin and asked me which title I liked. I don't answer.
