Chapter 184 Hello, My Puppet Prince (10)
Ding Bao covered his head and looked in front of the mirror.
Beads of blood ooze from the white and plump forehead, and there is a long bloody gash on the end of the eyebrow.
She frowned, stretched out her hand without saying a word, and gently wiped the blood on her forehead with the corner of her sleeve. When the bleeding stopped, Ding Bao got up and turned around, walked to the bedside again, and continued to take off the prince's clothes. Put on a set of clean pajamas.
She took this dress out to dry this morning. The soft and smooth fabric still has the smell of sunlight hidden in it. It is very comfortable to wear, and Si Yin can feel it.
He watched every move of the little maid in front of him, and didn't have any expectations for what she would do.
After this period of observation, it proved that she was no different from all other maids, unscrupulously showing her truest side in front of him, ugly and ridiculous.
Si Yin is used to the feeling that his body is out of control. He is like a bystander, calmly and indifferently watching others manipulate his body at will.
After changing his clothes, Ding Bao did not let Si Yin fall asleep as he did yesterday, but bent over and pulled him up again, using some strength so that his back could be leaned against the wall, his head against the soft cushion, straight and steady. sit in front of yourself.
It was completely dark outside, and the stars in the sky could be seen through the window.
The room was quiet, Ding Bao was buttoning up Si Yin's chest while muttering to himself.
"God Allah forgive me, I will take good care of His Royal Highness and do my job well, God, please don't condemn me again."
Si Yin continued to listen, not understanding what the maid in front of her was reading.
In the past, he didn't pay attention to what happened outside, let alone the thoughts of a maid.
But today, for some reason, the words spoken by this woman seemed to have some magical power, and every word and every word was so clear that it was hard to ignore.
"I have already been punished, and I will never dare to be lazy and dereliction of duty in the future. Please forgive my sin..."
While reading carefully, Ding Bao turned around and walked to the table at the door, casually took a book on the table, and flipped through two chapters in his hand.
It was talking about some laws and regulations. Ding Bao didn't like to read these things, but he held them up decently, turned around and walked to the bedside to sit directly opposite the prince.
"Cross Code..."
She read silently, then turned to the first page of the book, glanced at it, looked up at the prince sitting on the bed, and asked a casual question.
"What are you thinking about now?"
Obviously, she didn't expect to get a response from the other party, and after asking a question, she continued to talk to herself.
"Are you asleep?"
She raised her eyebrows, as if she felt that she had asked a stupid question, and held up the bookend in front of her and smiled softly.
"Come...let me see what the book says."
The first page is a message, turning to the second page, Ding Bao lowered his eyes and read in a low voice.
"Flesh cutting is the law."
This is a book that preaches the law through stories.
"Usu, a selfish and cunning farmer, bought many slaves for himself to drive. Allah, the kind and wise, is one of them. The new law announced that slaves are allowed to redeem themselves, and the amount of redemption is three times the amount that the farmer bought slaves. All the slaves are very happy, and work harder to earn money to redeem themselves. Allah also wants to get out of Wusu’s control, so he also wants to redeem himself. Back then, he was a slave cheated by Wusu with three catties of meat. Wusu didn’t want to be smart Allah, who is capable, left, and asked to cut off nine catties of flesh from Allah to let him go."
Speaking of this, Ding Bao said to himself.
"Nine catties of meat... how many meals will I have to eat?"
Unknowingly, Si Yin, who had been listening intently, suddenly heard such a sentence, and felt dissatisfied from the bottom of his heart.
He hated others interrupting his concentration, and a cold and gloomy light flashed in his blue eyes.
Fortunately, Ding Bao continued quickly.
"Allah saw through Wusu's tricks, so he took the initiative to invite a judge to witness all this. On the day of the redemption, Wusu, who was proud and arrogant, was confident that Allah would not risk his life to redeem himself. But Allah He took the initiative to hand a dagger to Wusu and told the judge that he owed Wusu nine catties of flesh.
The judge nodded in agreement, expecting Allah and Usu to testify.
The evil Wusu didn't want Allah to fulfill his wish, so he held a dagger in his hand and prepared to strike.
At this moment, Allah asked.
[I owe him nine catties of meat, what if I cut too much?What if there is less cutting? 】
Judge said.
[Whether it is more or less, it is considered that Wusu has violated the contract of only nine catties. According to the law, those who violate the contract will be hanged. 】
The law at that time strictly maintained the sacred status of the contract. As long as the contract was made, any party who violated it would be severely punished.
Wusu was dumbfounded on the spot. He was an ignorant farmer who didn't understand the laws at the time, and he didn't expect that he would shoot himself in the foot.Who can guarantee that the cut meat will not be too much or not less?Regardless of whether there is more or less, he is a party who violates the contract, and the end is hanging.
In this way, the distraught Wusu could only offer to amend the contract, and only asked Allah to return him nine catties of pork.Finally, the wise Allah won freedom for himself by virtue of law and mind.But the evil Wusu asks for trouble, loses all his slaves, falls down, and finally starves to death in the cold wind. "
The first story is finished.
The girl's voice is clean and clear, like a stream flowing down from the top of a snow-capped mountain in spring. It is gurgling, pure and bright, with a round accent and a lot of inexplicable soft charms in the voice, which can easily attract anyone's attention. attention.
Ding Bao raised her head, and suddenly saw the flash of light in the prince's eyes. She stared at the prince's eyes and muttered something.
"Did I read it wrong..."
She closed the book and put it aside, then stood up and supported Si Yin's waist, slowly put him down on the bed, and finally covered him with the quilt.
"This story tells us that the more we want to control, the more we lose. As a human being, we should take care of ourselves and take care of ourselves."
Ding Bao continued to think about it, like an old mother-in-law. After tucking up the quilt for the prince, she sat back on the stool beside the bed, put her arms against the soft mattress, propped her head on the ground, and watched with eyes open. Tree shadows outside the window.
"When can I go home..."
In the dark, Ding Bao sighed softly, with a lot of helplessness and longing resting in his voice.
Her voice could easily attract Si Yin's attention, he heard a low humming sound coming from his pillow, soft and light, like a trembling little white flower swaying in front of his eyes , without any aggression and deterrence, but it is like fine sand passing through a net, entangled in strands and strands, and has a strong sense of presence.
