Chapter 34: "Turnaround"
Seeing him wake up, Kaoru Tandai reached out and probed his forehead. Just as his face looks red, his body is also very hot, and his cheeks, which are usually as handsome as jade, seem to be lit with a seductive red, and it is estimated that the same is true for his body.
"Undress. She pointed to the wooden plate that was placed not far away, "Miss Le said that she wanted to soak you in cold water." β
Ye Chi's head was heavy, but his mind was clear, except for his hands and feet, as if he had collapsed. His body was hot, but it was an unspeakable pain, especially when he saw Kaoru Tandai...... It's hard to feel chest tightness.
"No...... he clutched his belt tightly, a low voice between his lips, "find ...... Long always. β
"Chang Su went to grab the medicine, and he didn't dare to come. "Kaoru Tai doesn't change his face," he was afraid of being pinched. β
ββ¦β¦β
Ye Chi was completely hopeless this time, and forced himself to sit up, then he snatched the belt from Kaoru Tai's hand, held his forehead and said, "I'll do it myself...... You go out first. β
Kaoru Tandai hesitated, "But you can't even stand up." β
Ye Chi got up and was about to put on his shoes, and was about to refute, but his arms couldn't exert his strength. Kaoru Tandai is right, his whole body looks like cast lead, and it is difficult to even stand up, but this is not the worst.
Worst of all, whenever Kaoru Tandai's little hands touched his skin, the cold touch could instantly ease his heat.
This thought made him think he was a beast.
Ye Chi finally raised his hand and pointed to the wooden basin, and said with difficulty: "Then you...... Help me to that side, and you will go out." β
Kaoru Tandai nodded, knowing that this was also a compromise for him, so she propped up his shoulders and helped him over.
The soft long hair brushed his cheeks as if out of nowhere, and the distance of only a dozen paces was as long as ten thousand miles. There was a faint fragrance on Kaoru Tai's body, which was almost impossible to smell if he wasn't close at all, but at the moment it smelled so clearly in Ye Chi that he sniffed it twice unconsciously.
There was a blur in her eyes, and only her crimson figure remained.
The moonlight was shining outside the house, and Le Tong waited for a long time and did not see Changsu come back, so he ordered one of his men to go to the city to find him. She yawned in the evening breeze and pulled out a pill bottle she had brought with her, the pills inside were her exclusive secret recipe, which should temporarily relieve Ye Chi's pain.
She walked to the door of Ye Chi's room, and couldn't hear the sound inside, but the light was still on, and she didn't know if Kaoru Yutai had finished what she had explained.
Le Tong raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, but his wrist was suddenly grabbed. She didn't hear the footsteps approaching, she was startled at this time, and when she turned her head, it was Tang Mo who was pulling her sleeve and running out of nowhere.
"Let go. She lowered her voice, a little anger between her brows.
Tang Mo let go of her hand a little at a loss, and his eyebrows were stern: "These days...... Are you alright?"
"I'm so good. She said sarcastically in a cold voice, "You are really amazing when you break into the state governor's mansion at night." β
Tang Mo was reprimanded by her, and he didn't get angry, just scratched his head, "Can't you talk to me normally?"
"Speak normally, how do you want me to be normal?" Le Tong glared at him, and said helplessly, "When you thought I was a man, you shouted every day to beat me to the ground, and now that I'm a woman, you suddenly came and said that you wanted to marry meβdon't you think you should take some medicine to cure your brain?"
Tang Mo retorted wordlessly, sullen for a moment, pointed to the door and said, "Lord Ye and Lord Tantai are inside, you rush in like this, in case you ...... What if he's naked?"
He said it seriously, not like he was joking in the slightest. Le Tong glanced at him faintly, and handed over the medicine bottle: "Then you will send it?"
"Good. Tang Mo smiled at her, as if he was afraid that she would regret it, immediately took the medicine bottle, turned around and knocked on the door.
Le Tong took advantage of his inattention to retreat, looked at his back, smiled faintly, but looked a little helpless, and chose another way to go to the small hall to rest.
Tang Mo knocked on the door for a long time but didn't respond, thinking that there should be no one inside, but who knew that the door suddenly opened. Kaoru Tai was stunned for a moment when he saw him, but he didn't ask why he was here, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You came just in time, Ye Chi refuses to take it off, you go and help him." β
"No, I'm just here to deliver the medicine......"
Before Tang Mo finished speaking, he saw Ye Chi inside suddenly come over. He looked weak, clutched his neckline, closed the door with a flushed face, and was extremely embarrassed: "No...... I'm enough for one person. β
Kaoru was pushed out along the door, and stretched out his hand to the puzzled Tang Mo and said, "He's shy." β
***
Yesterday evening, most of the city's medical centers were closed. Changsu ran several houses to knock on the door, and finally bought the medicine that Le Tong explained, but when he came back, it was nearly three watches, and he was almost lost, so the people from Le's side came to look for him, so he went back to boil medicine for Ye Chi together.
Ye Chi's physique is relatively weak, and he is not suitable for eating such a big tonic at one time, but fortunately, he only drank a few sips, had a few nosebleeds, and ate something that was on fire.
Everyone else in the mansion breathed a sigh of relief, but the eldest princess Yasuhara felt very sad. She was originally thinking about Ye Chi and Kaoru Tai's happiness, but she ignored that the secret recipes in the room were not suitable for everyone, and if Ye Chi was accidentally cured, she really had no shame to stay here anymore.
"Qingyuan, this palace is really ...... I'm sorry for you. The eldest princess paced in the hall anxiously early in the morning, and waited until Ye Chi came out before she hurriedly looked him up and down, "How do you feel now?"
Ye Chi looked at her sad face, and saw that the princess had been frightened all night, so he waved his hand and smiled, calm and calm: "Your Highness doesn't have to blame yourself, I drank it without asking clearly, but I was very energetic after the medicine went down last night." β
When the eldest princess heard this, she always felt that he was hinting at something, but it was inconvenient to say it in front of outsiders, so she squinted and smiled, with a look of "I understand you": "That...... What does the little girl think?"
Ye Chi wasn't quite sure what she was asking. Although he remembered everything that happened last night, the most profound thing in his memory was the fragrance on Kaoru Yutai's body, the faint fragrance and the faint sweetness, which smelled very good.
It's just that...... Being alone in the same room with a widow is too ruining Kaoru Tatai's reputation, and he must not do this.
Of course, when they get married, none of this will happen.
Ye Chi suddenly felt that he was thinking a little far, but in fact he was very happy, so he smiled and said, "It's still ...... Not bad, right? β
The eldest princess smiled meaningfully and walked away satisfied.
This secret recipe is still useful!
Ye Chi got up and went to the study, only to find that the things he had brought back from the yamen were gone. He remembered that Kaoru Yutai asked him to rest for a day last night, and the affairs of the government were handled by her.
He wasn't a workaholic, and although he didn't want Kaoru Tantai to get tired, he really had a hard time to spare, so he folded paper cranes in the house for a while. Chang Su tiptoed over and told him that the eldest princess had gone to Su Yu, so he dared to show up.
Ye Chi touched his head and smiled: "Don't be afraid, Your Highness just likes you too." β
Changsu responded with a bitter face.
In fact, the reason why the eldest princess came all the way to Qinzhou Ye Chi couldn't be clearer, that is, she wanted to take Su Yu's nephew back. Regarding the reason why Su Yu left the capital in the first place, he only heard the other party say it when he was chatting, although most of the content was omitted, he could guess what was going on.
King Lian once adopted a little girl with a not very good brain more than ten years ago, and he didn't even know who he was, so he named it "Amber" because her eyes were really good-looking. The little girl was sometimes normal and sometimes abnormal, perhaps because she was afraid of provoking criticism, so King Lian sent Amber to the eldest princess's house to raise her, and she grew up with Su Yu as a child.
The so-called childhood sweetheart, the two have no guesses - of course, Ye Chi thinks that this definitely does not apply to Yuan Ziling - Su Yu decided to marry Amber. The eldest princess is not a person who cares about her background, and she is a girl who grew up beside her since she was a child, so she allowed this matter, but Amber left the princess's mansion before getting married, saying that she remembered some things from her childhood, and suddenly left.
In order to find her, Su Yu traveled all over the country, but unfortunately there was no news, and then after Ye Chi arrived in Qinzhou, he also stayed.
Although the eldest princess has a nephew, her favorite is this nephew, who scolds and scolds, but she never really gets angry, and often helps inquire about Amber's whereabouts. A big living person always has to eat and sleep, and there will definitely be some clues left somewhere.
The afternoon sun sprinkled in the small courtyard, the door of the leaf pond was open, and he only felt warm on his body, concentrating on origami cranes, occasionally remembering something, and writing some idioms or allusions, imagining Ah Yao's look when he saw them.
In the evening, Ye Chi finally finished a box of paper cranes, took the wooden box and sent it to Ah Yao, but when he arrived at Tangtai's house, he saw that Yuan Ziling was also there, and he was playing tricks for Ah Yao.
"Lord Ye, you're here. Ah Yao smiled brightly, and his body seemed to be much better than some time ago.
Yuan Ziling turned her head to look at him when she heard the voice, and there was no special expression, "Kaoru is not here." β
Ah Yao inexplicably felt that the atmosphere was tense, and hurriedly said, "My sister will be back soon." β
Ye Chi gently placed the small wooden box on the table and sat down slowly. This round table is not large, and there are two big men and a child sitting on it, which not only looks a little strange but also very crowded. He silently pushed the wooden box over, smiling warmly: "Give it to you, you will definitely recover." β
Ah Yao opened the small wooden box with joy, and when he saw the colorful paper cranes, he smiled. Yuan Ziling watched from the sidelines, snorted in a low voice, and began to talk about some things: "I heard that Lord Ye was sick yesterday?"
"Hmm. Ye Chi nodded and smiled at him, "I heard that Yuan Gongzi's business failed?"
ββ¦β¦β
Ah Yao was sandwiched between them, looking left and right and not knowing what to say, but when he was embarrassed, he felt a little proud in his heart. At this time, Kaoru Tai came back from the yamen, and at a glance he noticed the unusual atmosphere in this room, and frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yuan Ziling got up and smiled with her, handed her an invitation, and seemed to have waited for her for so long just for this, "The third day of the next lunar month is my father's birthday, and my uncle doesn't seem to be at home in recent days." I'll give you the invitation first, and I'll visit you another day. β
Kaoru Yutai took the invitation and nodded, "How are Uncle Yuan's legs and feet?"
"The same old way. Yuan Ziling smiled, clapped her hands and turned to go out, and glanced at Ye Chi specially, and left with a big grin.
Ye Chi had an indescribable feeling. The communication between Yuan Ziling and Kaoru Yutai is too ordinary, but it is this normality that makes him feel uncomfortable, because he has known her for a long time and knows her a lot.
When he was distracted, he suddenly noticed that Kaoru Yutai was approaching, and he was stunned for a moment, and then regained his composure: "What's wrong?"
"Are you angry?" she stared into his eyes.
"Nope. β
"No...... You're in a daze. Kaoru Tandai pondered, "Aren't you happy?"
Ye Chi was not unhappy, but a little helpless, he felt that he knew too little about this girl, so he silently raised his head: "If I am angry, will you comfort me?"
Kaoru Yutai nodded without thinking: "Of course." β
"Will you hug me, then?"
