The night was getting deeper, and Xun Ying and Dao Yan were still standing by the bedside. In the past, Dao Yan would leave at night, but everyone knew that Ma Xiuying's current situation needed attention at any time, so Dao Yan no longer shied away from it. What's more, Zhu Yuanzhang also ordered Dao Yan to stay by Ma Xiuying's side and observe her stroke at all times.

Waiting for a patient is a very boring thing, Xun Ying wants to talk but is afraid of arguing with Ma Xiuying, and Dao Yan stares at Ma Xiuying intently, and doesn't seem to want to talk to her. Bored, she began to yawn and fell asleep on the bed unconsciously.

In the quiet room, Dao Yan looked at Ma Xiuying unscrupulously, in fact, Ma Xiuying's smile had long been engraved into his mind, but he could never get enough of it. After so many years, Ma Xiuying's facial features will change more or less, but he will always overlap this face with the young face before.

At that time, Ma Xiuying was so vibrant, exuding a kind of confidence and publicity. Now Ma Xiuying's eyes are still sharp but have become much more restrained, and there is always a touch of sorrow and anxiety in that bland expression.

After entering the palace, Dao Yan knew that Ma Xiuying's life was not happy, and Zhu Yuanzhang's strength and ruthlessness even disgusted and feared him, not to mention Ma Xiuying, who had been with Zhu Yuanzhang for decades. There are also rumors about Ma Xiuying, intentionally or unintentionally, and restless women like Li Qi'er.

After several times of contact, Dao Yan could already sense that Li Qi'er had malicious intentions towards Ma Xiuying, and he regretted that he brought Li Qi'er to Ma Xiuying, but he regretted letting Ma Xiuying leave even more.

When there is no interruption, he will suffer from it, this is the truth that he only understood after he became a monk.

If he hadn't worried too much at that time, he would have fought with his family to the end at the beginning; If he had been braver at that time, he would have told Ma Xiuying his mind directly; If he was desperate at that time and forcibly left Ma Xiuying with his determination to break the kettle, would their lives be rewritten? Even if he can't give Ma Xiuying fine clothes and food, he believes that he will definitely make Ma Xiuying carefree and not suffer from serious illness at a young age.

Unfortunately, the word "if" is always used after the fact, and the facts that have already happened can never be changed.

Dao Yan stroked Ma Xiuying's thin and bloodless hand, his heart was like a knife, if the Buddha has a spirit, please add his lifespan to Ma Xiuying, even if it is in exchange for ten years for one year. But would the Buddha still shelter him, an ungodly disciple? If this is the Buddha's punishment for his impiety, and he is willing to go to the hell of Ah Bi forever after death, please stop torturing Ma Xiuying.

I don't know if the effect of the medicine has passed or if she feels the strength coming from her hand, Ma Xiuying woke up from her sleep and saw Daoyan's dark and shiny eyes as soon as she opened her eyes.

What kind of eyes are they, obviously the candlelight is dim, but Ma Xiuying can see it clearly. At this time, those eyes were no longer as deep and cold as usual, and the eyes full of pain, pity, resentment, unwillingness, and fiery affection were like the sea of the howling wind to sweep her in. She was startled, and wanted to reach out and touch those eyes to dispel the pain and resentment inside, but her hand could not be lifted.

"Are you awake?" In order not to wake Xun Ying, Dao Yan just squirmed his lips.

Ma Xiuying wanted to laugh and wanted to tell Dao Yan that she was fine, but tears rolled out involuntarily.

Dao Yan raised her eyebrows, and just as she was about to speak, Ma Xiuying blinked her eyes a few times, squeezed out the tears in her eyes, and bent her eyebrows.

Ma Xiuying's crying and laughing appearance was really funny, but Dao Yan couldn't laugh, he knew that Ma Xiuying was comforting him. He suddenly understood what Ma Xiuying meant, and held Ma Xiuying's hand and put it on his face.

You're dying, and you don't look good. Ma Xiuying glared dissatisfiedly, and she felt the raised cheekbones on Dao Yan's cheeks.

You're also gone, and you're still so good-looking. Dao Yan smiled faintly, not caring about his appearance.

You have to get some rest. Ma Xiuying looked at Dao Yan and then at Xun Ying who was asleep.

I'm going to watch over you. Dao Yan shook his head slightly.

How familiar this scene is, the two of them invariably remembered the scene of Dao Yan's first visit to Lin Yingyuan, at that time, in order to hide the secret of the dog cave, the two of them just raised their eyebrows and played sharply, that kind of feeling that can only be understood and cannot be spoken, and now it makes people's hearts flutter when they think about it.

Thinking about it, Ma Xiuying wanted to cry again.

Don't cry! Dao Yan's eyes immediately became stern.

Ma Xiuying blinked, desperately wiped away her tears, and returned a look of grievance and anger. Don't kill me!

Dao Yan couldn't help laughing, Ma Xiuying at this time was like a child who couldn't eat sugar.

The bright smile suddenly dispelled the gloom in the room like a bright spring light, and filled the whole room with a faint warmth.

The only fly in the ointment is that the wrinkles at the corners of Daoyan's eyes are getting denser, and I really want to smooth out those wrinkles! Ma Xiuying unwillingly flexed her fingers.

Dao Yan, who was holding her hand, suddenly noticed this subtle change, and said in surprise: "Can you move?" ”

"What can move?" Xun Ying Fan raised her head in a daze, and when she came to her senses, she muttered and turned into a scream, "Master, you, how are you?" ”

Ma Xiuying looked at her and didn't speak, but she couldn't speak.

Xun Ying crossed his shoulders, and hope turned into disappointment.

Dao Yan said: "Don't worry, your master will be fine, just now I noticed her fingers beating slightly, which means that she can still control her limbs, but she needs a little time to recover." ”

Xun Ying suddenly cried with joy, "Master, did you hear me? Master Dao Yan said you can get better! Haha, you can get better! ”

Ma Xiuying blinked, if she could speak, she really wanted to say, this girl was noisy with her!

Dao Yan now understood Ma Xiuying's meaning better than Xun Ying, and said with a smile: "Your master needs to recuperate, and you are so noisy, I am afraid that you will wake up those palace people who have rested." ”

"Oh, the slave is not happy. The slave and maid went to fetch water for their master and clean his face. Sunkage stomped his feet and ran away shyly. When I walked out of the room, I remembered that Ma Xiuying's hand seemed to be on Dao Yan's face just now, no, no, she must have been dazzled.

Dao Yan stuffed Ma Xiuying's hand back into the quilt and said seriously: "What the poor monk just said is true, although your paralysis is ferocious, fortunately, it was treated in time, so there is a great possibility of recovery." But you can't be angry anymore, especially not to be cranky, don't be afraid, until you get better, the poor monks will stay here at any time......"

He wanted to know what Ma Xiuying was afraid of immediately, but unfortunately Ma Xiuying could only communicate with him briefly through his eyes now, and couldn't speak.

Ma Xiuying blinked, she couldn't do anything until she got better, so she could only put aside those terrifying memories for the time being and recuperate with peace of mind.
