The prince is seriously ill

Chapter 4 Devil's Foot

The court lady Xiuzhu came in with a food box, "I will see the second prince, my servant."

Hearing this, the child's hairs stood on end, and he stared at her tensely.

Xiuzhu turned around and closed the door, then turned her head, her respectful face was completely gone, only a fierce look remained in her eyes.She knew that after closing the door, she no longer had to put on a show. There was only one five-year-old cripple who couldn't speak well, and no one would know whether she beat her or scolded her.She grinned suddenly.Of course she won't beat him, he is a prince, she is just a slave, she will not make fun of herself, if that bitch knows that someone is secretly bullying her son, even a son she hates very much, She didn't have a good life either, after all, beating a dog depends on the owner.

Xiuzhu slightly unscrewed the food box, and the aroma of braised pork immediately hit her nostrils, mixed with another strange smell.He glanced at the white steamed bun again, seeing that the steamed bun was still lying quietly in the yellowish water, the smile on his face suddenly widened.She turned her head, glanced hurriedly at the child in the corner, turned her head and spat in a few mouthfuls calmly, then closed the lid, it was as beautiful as flying, and said with a happy smile: "Second prince, this food box is full of Concubine Rong ordered your favorite dish, you just need to stand up and eat it."

The child looked at her with grievances, and said intermittently: "Give me, Silk Box!" The words were full of longing, but the words were not clear.

Xiuzhu walked slowly, shook her head and said: "Forgive me, the second prince, but I can't give you a food box!" After saying that, she twisted the food box tightly and hung it on the wall at chest height. The height is a bit low, but for a For a five-year-old child, it is not low. If he wants to get the food box, he has to stand up to reach it.

The child stared at her like a wolf, or to be precise, at the food box on her chest.

Xiuzhu saw it, "Second Prince, Your Majesty ordered the servants to hang the food box on the wall, and the Second Prince can get it as long as he stands up."

"No, please, give it to me!" the child said eagerly, his eyes widened and his neck stretched out.

"The second prince is angry and guilty. Even if I die, I will not dare to disobey the will of Concubine Rong. The second prince can only stand up, it's very simple, just stand up." Xiuzhu patted the dust on her hands and walked away, looking at that person The prince, who was neither human nor dog, begged her at his feet. It was a pity that there were not many chairs in this dilapidated firewood room. Otherwise, he would cross his legs to watch the show, and the feeling would definitely be more beautiful than it is now.

The child watched her go away, and the longing in his eyes was extinguished.Just stand up and eat it?He straightened the broken leg, but I couldn't stand up, I really couldn't stand up!

Every day in his dreams, he dreams of his mother yelling at him with her bloody mouth open, stand up, stand up for me!He cried more than once and said that his legs hurt and he couldn't stand up, but it was fine if he didn't say anything, as long as he said it, his mother would punch him and order the maid to whip him...

Why do you have to stand up?They obviously disliked him very much, the maids often pinched him secretly while no one was around, and the mother always frowned when she saw that leg and never took a second look.He knew they all hated him, and he hated himself too, and he couldn't figure out why his right leg was so disgusting, why his right leg just wasn't the same as other people's.He was used to hiding his right foot in the bag tube, and he didn't want to see it, and he couldn't exert any strength on that foot at all, and as long as he exerted a little force, it would hurt terribly inside.

He really can't stand up.

But I'm hungry, I'm so hungry, I'm almost dying of hunger!

His limbs were trembling, and his eyelids could not be opened. He saw three Xiuzhu standing beside him and smiling at him at the same time. The most annoying people.

His stomach was protesting violently, and the aroma of braised pork lingered in the air. He swallowed, his mouth made a gurgling sound, and he couldn't help crawling towards the food box.

The food box hung on the wall and swayed, kissing the wall once and for all.

Finally crawled under the food box, the light in the child's eyes became even brighter.Putting his hands on the ground, his eyes were fixed on the food box hanging on the wall. After a long while of silence, he suddenly straightened up fiercely, his mouth was wide open, and his head could not be raised higher. His eyes were red and he stared at the food box. Like a hungry dog ​​waiting for an opportunity to jump up and grab food.

"Second prince, you can't do this, you have to stand up to reach this height." Xiuzhu leaned on the door with her arms folded, reminding her kindly.

The child turned a deaf ear, his neck was completely stiff, no matter how hard he tried, the food box that was two heads higher was still not touching the bottom.Kneeling with his teeth bared, his expression finally became irritable, he lowered his body slightly, paused for a while, took a deep breath, and jumped up suddenly. While jumping, he raised his hands high. He hit the food box, but just touched his hands, and the next second he fell to the ground again.Knees hit the ground first, and it hurt so badly.The food box was under force and shook greatly, but it was still hanging firmly on the wall.

Xiuzhu burst out laughing, as if seeing a juggling clown performing poorly.

It seemed that because he touched the food box, the child was greatly encouraged, and jumped up one after another, repeating the movements, but the food box shook more violently, but still failed to fall.

The child finally gave up, maybe because he had no strength, and fell down with a thud, tears kept falling, dripping on the bent and messy stumped legs, without the slightest sound.

stand up!Mother's voice echoed in her head.

Stand up and you can eat braised pork!He heard Xiuzhu say this to him.

He was so hungry that his eyes stared, he looked up at the food box again, gritted his teeth and wiped away his tears, leaned on the wall with his right hand, and the ground with his left hand, and slowly straightened up...

The hard wall and ground became his only support. He moved his body little by little, moving his weight up cautiously. He didn't know whether it was because of pain or fear. His legs were trembling non-stop, and the dust on his trouser legs was shaken off. better.The little hand went up step by step, and the knee gradually became straight from extreme bending, and finally it was completely straight.

The child seemed not to believe that he had really stood up, and stared blankly at the ground. The unfamiliar height made him panic. Does this count as standing up?He tentatively turned around and stood up straight against the wall. His legs were sore and numb. He didn't respond at all, just staring at the food box stiffly.

The food box was in front of him, he couldn't help holding his breath, his left hand was tightly grasping the wall, his right hand stretched over his head with difficulty, and he took off the food box vigilantly.

In the food box, the bowl holding the steamed buns was tilted crookedly, and yellowish water flowed out from the side of the bowl and leaked onto the ground.The child rushed over impatiently, picked up a steamed bun with one hand and gnawed it, the steamed bun was wet, water flowed down from the top, and dripped into the sleeve along the palm of the hand.The child paid no attention to it, and didn't notice the slightest smell that didn't belong to steamed buns.

Eat it, eat it, eat it quickly.Xiuzhu shouted in her heart, watching him swallow the steamed buns with scum and water, and then ate up the braised pork, a great pleasure filled her heart, a pleasure that excited her more than revenge.

She hated their mother and son so much, they were born as maidservants, how could she seduce the emperor?It's just because she looks better, why can she be a concubine and a concubine, but she can only be a slave and a handmaid?Fortunately, God finally had eyes, and she gave birth to a monster, a monster without bones.She extremely regretted not telling the empress the truth about her son's broken leg earlier, if she had told her earlier, maybe that bitch would have died long ago.

She still doesn't understand why the emperor killed the pair of monsters after knowing the truth, but she also knows that it doesn't make any difference whether to kill them or not, anyway, they can't do anything anymore, and the one in front of her is drinking happily A prince who is so hungry that he eats everything is even more unlikely to become an emperor. If he can become an emperor, the sun will come out to the west.

She packed up the food box in a happy mood, opened the door of the firewood room and went out.The second prince stood up, and she was going to tell that bitch the good news.
