Chapter 344 Bad Luck
Chapter 344 Bad Luck
When Fan Jingrui heard this, he subconsciously reached out and covered Chu Ci's mouth without thinking.
Chu Ci was not annoyed, his eyes were sparkling.
No wonder every time I confronted the traitors of the previous dynasty, it always felt like a bad ending. It turns out that this is where the problem lies!
However, after the excitement wore off, Chu Ci realized belatedly that Fan Jingrui's hand was covering her nose, making it difficult for her to breathe.
She quickly slapped Fan Jingrui's hand that was covering her mouth, moaning, "Let go! Let go! I can't breathe!"
Fan Jingrui quickly let go, thinking in his heart that he must never cover Chu Ci's mouth again.
But somehow, perhaps because he was too nervous, or perhaps because he had just covered it too tightly, when he let go, he used too much force and threw Chu Ci to the ground without noticing.
But there was a small charcoal stove where Chu Ci fell.
There was a dull "bang" sound, and Chu Ci's head hit the edge of the charcoal stove, and blood gushed out instantly.
The bright red blood flowed down her forehead and dripped onto the ground.
"Bleeding?" Chu Ci subconsciously touched the wound on his forehead with his hand, his face full of disbelief, his eyes full of astonishment and confusion, "No way, the side effects are so serious?"
Seeing this, Fan Jingrui looked anxious, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for being careless. Just bear with it for now! I will definitely find a way to help you."
Fan Jingrui was about to come over to help Chu Ci. Unexpectedly, his feet suddenly slipped, and he lost his balance and fell directly on Chu Ci.
Chu Ci gasped in pain, "Ah, you are trying to kill me!"
If Chu Ci thought that Fan Jingrui's statement was exaggerated before, then now she felt that her life was really in danger!
At this moment, she only felt waves of piercing pain in the wound, and her head was dizzy, as if she was going to faint in the next second.
Just at this extremely embarrassing moment, the door of the tea room creaked open.
The prince looked at the chaotic and confusing scene before him and asked hesitantly, "What are you two doing?"
His face was full of confusion and puzzlement, and his eyes moved back and forth between Fan Jingrui and Chu Ci.
Chu Ci, being looked at like this, was already in pain and irritability, and his anger immediately flared up, "What are you looking at? Why don't you find someone to help us up?"
When the prince heard this, a look of nervousness instantly appeared on his face, and he thought Chu Ci and Fan Jingrui were seriously injured.
He hurriedly told the eunuch beside him, "Go get the imperial physician right away. Act quickly. There can be no delay!"
Then he turned around and said to the guards beside him anxiously: "Go over and help them quickly. Be careful and don't make their injuries worse."
"Yes." The eunuch took the order and prepared to trot away.
When Chu Ci saw this, he thought to himself that this was not going to work.
Wouldn't it be even more embarrassing for her?
He quickly shouted, "Wait, we are fine. No need to find a doctor."
Upon hearing this, the prince raised his hand and called the young eunuch back. He looked at Chu Ci and Fan Jingrui with suspicion, "Are you sure?"
Fan Jingrui's face flushed red, and he stammered, "Sure, we were just unlucky, and it was because of carelessness that this happened. It's really nothing serious, Your Highness, there's no need to worry too much."
Unlucky? Hearing these two words, the prince couldn't help but think of what Feng Yan said after he woke up. His face was full of disbelief, and he murmured, "So soon?"
Then his eyes flickered, as if he had thought of something important, "What about your wedding?"
"I can only..." Chu Ci was about to say that it would be postponed, but before he could finish his words, Fan Jingrui interrupted him eagerly. "My wife, I don't want to wait any longer!"
At this time, the guards beside the prince happened to help the two men up.
Fan Jingrui simply reached out and held Chu Ci's hand tightly, his eyes fiery and determined: "No matter what happens, I want to marry you as soon as possible, and I don't want to wait even a day longer."
The prince, although he understood Fan Jingrui's feelings of cherishing his life after surviving the disaster.
However, such eagerness was a little too unrestrained.
He couldn't help but frowned slightly, cleared his throat and coughed, and said with a reminder: "Father and mother are still waiting for you in the imperial study. Don't delay here for too long, it's better to go quickly."
Fan Jingrui, who was interrupted, felt dissatisfied with the prince for the first time.
After all, at this moment his heart was filled with deep affection for Chu Ci and his eagerness to get married, so being interrupted so suddenly made him inevitably a little annoyed.
But soon, he suppressed this feeling of dissatisfaction with his strong self-control.
"Thank you, Prince, for your reminder." Fan Jingrui said thank you.
But, no matter how the prince listened, the words that came out of Fan Jingrui's mouth sounded like they were squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying a bit of suppressed anger and helplessness.
The prince thought he was wrong, waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. If you have nothing else to do, just go over there!"
It’s just that when this guy is unlucky, even drinking cold water will get stuck in his teeth.
Even though a eunuch was carefully supporting him, Chu Ci still tripped over the high threshold of the imperial study when he reached the door.
Chu Ci cried out “Ouch” and fell forward.
Fortunately, the two eunuchs were very strong and used all their strength to hold Chu Ci tightly, thus preventing her from falling to the ground.
If it weren't for the two eunuchs' quick reaction and great strength, Chu Ci's face would probably have been disfigured.
This scene was also clearly seen by the emperor, the empress and all the ministers in the imperial study.
"This situation? It won't happen..." A minister frowned and muttered softly, his face full of confusion.
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.
On the contrary, the queen, who had been kind before, walked up quickly with a worried look on her face, gently took Chu Ci's hand, and said, "How could this child be so careless? Are you hurt?"
The queen seemed to care about Chu Ci, but in fact she quietly put all the blame on Chu Ci.
Sure enough, at the critical moment, the closeness of the relatives became apparent.
Although this is human nature, Chu Ci will not tolerate it.
She bowed slightly, with a perfect smile on her face, and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I've always been so lucky, and I'm a little uncomfortable with the sudden misfortune. I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself!"
In fact, everyone present knew clearly who was the joke.
"You..." The queen was so angry that her face turned blue. She pointed at Chu Ci for a long time and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
The emperor knew the queen's thoughts, but he was somewhat tolerant of Chu Ci. So he dragged Feng Yan out and said, "Feng Jianzheng, do you have any solution for Princess Yi Xin's situation?"
