When the carriage went up the mountain road, the speed gradually slowed down, and when it was about to go downhill, Xiao Ning had already ordered to go down and let the speed of the carriage be the slowest possible.

Be sure to walk smoothly so that the occupants of the car are not disturbed.

Incense was lit in the carriage and inserted in the delicate incense burner, and the fragrance of Na wafted into the car.

Xiao Ning looked at the figure wrapped in the brocade quilt, and the person who was so thin that he didn't know looked at it at first glance, and almost thought that the brocade quilt was actually empty under it.

There was an extra scar on the pale little face and chin that was knocked before withdrawing from Xishan and Shen Yan to pick up the boat that day.

It is said that in order to protect the children who wrestled on the mountain road, he used himself as a human flesh pad.

At first, he tried to cover it up, but then he couldn't cover it up, and he was discovered by Dr. Chen.

But compared to the symptoms on her body, this small scar can almost be ignored.

Because every day in the courtyard, she is in a coma, and I don't know how much the people around her are worried.

Xiao Ning's heart trembled, reached out to caress her little face, slowly brushed over the scar, rubbed her fingers gently, and then slowly held her hand exposed outside the quilt.

The carriage suddenly shook violently, a chill flashed in Xiao Ning's eyes, and the attendant outside the window stepped forward and said, "I just hit a rolling rock." ”

"Be careful." Xiao Ning's voice was a little unhappy, he turned his head to look at her in his sleep and moved uncomfortably, he hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but pick her up on the mat and put it on his lap.

Let her head rest on her arm, if there is another collision, at least, there can be his arms as a buffer!

It's a pity that the river is under control, and he can't walk on the water for the time being, otherwise he wouldn't have ordered the carriage to return the same way, and rushed to Yingtian day and night.

The rainy season in the south finally came to an end after a series of events in the Jianghuai region, and at this moment the faint sunlight penetrated through the cracks in the car windows. Reflecting Xiao Ning's handsome face, the knot between his eyebrows was always untied.

Looking back on the past 20 years of life, he rarely had such a helpless moment, but he showed such a look last time. It is also in the Zihuan Palace for the same person.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ning's expression was even darker, he tightened the corner of the quilt for the person in his arms, and in the next second, gently, he rubbed his face against her cool little face

I could vaguely feel the jolt of the carriage beneath me, but my eyelids were heavy and I couldn't open them.

Moving his fingers slightly, he was wrapped in a warm hand.

The sound that I have heard so often in the fog these days rings in my ears.

It took me a lot of effort to slowly open my eyes.

I have a headache and want to cry, it's so uncomfortable!

"Xiao Ling'er." The moment I woke up, I realized that there was not a thick cushion underneath me.

That feeling of warmth and comfort was entirely due to the fact that I was held in his arms all by myself.

Xiao Ning raised his hand and touched my forehead. Then he pasted his own, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Fortunately, the fever has subsided." "I'm afraid you'll have a high fever all the time, and you'll be stupid."

The joke he was telling at the moment didn't make me laugh at all. I barely looked at him with my eyes wide open, and then I spoke, my voice also weak. "Where are you going?"

Looking at him, I actually have a bunch of questions in my mind, but I will pick the most direct question first.

Xiao Ning lowered his head and picked me up and put me on the cushion in the carriage, I wanted to ask him for a pillow to cushion. So I can sit and talk.

He glanced at me with deep eyes, shook his head, and said, "I can't sit now, just lie down like this." "Also, talk less." "Mr. Ge specially advised him when he wrote to him."

Xiao Ning said softly: "Now, we are on the way to respond to the sky. ”

Response day? I was startled, and the last memory of Jianghuai was that I slept in a daze in the bed of another courtyard I had visited.

"The people of Renshantang. Including your master, they all plan to escort you back to the sky, but with me here, they can't intervene, so they can only send some words of advice. ”

"Shen Yan. It is the one who came to pick you up by boat before, he is the first assistant of the court, and after dealing with the affairs of Jianghuai, I will give him more important tasks. ”

"It seems too early to tell you this." A flush flashed on Xiao Ning's face, and it just so happened that I closed my eyes and didn't notice it.

I just felt that he spoke in the same gentle and slow tone as he usually used to get along.

In fact, he is not similar to someone on weekdays, I miss another person, this face is a little comforted in the heart when I am sick and weak.

Jianghuai's affairs, as well as Chen Shi's progress, in fact, I want to know.

Xiao Ning stopped me from talking, his eyes flashed, he turned his head and said slowly: "You were infected with the epidemic when you treated the victims in Xishan, and your symptoms were once endangered. ”

The fingers he held my hand suddenly tightened, and he calmed down, and then he continued: "The doctors in the other hospital have limited medical skills, and your master has consulted with several doctors in Jianghuai, which has temporarily suppressed the condition, but to be thorough, we need to go to Yingtian." ”

"There are more doctors and better herbs in the hospital."

As soon as I heard the three words of Tai Hospital, I almost didn't shout out, but unfortunately I didn't have enough strength, so I could only reply to him in a low voice: "Resolutely don't go to the palace." ”

The last time I was in the Imperial City, the impression I left didn't make me happy, not to mention, I knew that Xiao Ning's mind was still unclear, if he didn't avoid suspicion and entered the palace again at this time, I don't know how many rumors would arise again.

It's a stupid move for him, for me!

"You can stay in the Zihuan Palace, you don't need to leave the palace, and you can recuperate."

If I could have enough strength, I would definitely raise my hand to hit him, but unfortunately I was reluctant to speak, so I could only shake my head continuously and said, "I won't go to Zihuan Palace if I die." ”

The word "death" made Xiao Ning's expression change in an instant, he forcibly suppressed the surging of emotion, looked down at me and said: "Xiao Ling'er, I can agree that you don't go to Zihuan Palace, this is the condition I promised you, and I also agree that you will not enter the imperial city, but in exchange, you also have to promise me a condition." ”

I motioned with my eyes for him to come out and let me decide.

Xiao Ning stroked the back of my hand and said softly: "The resettlement site I chose, as long as it is not where I live, you are not allowed to object." “

It's a big or small concept, but if you exclude the place where he lives, it means that I will never be brought into the palace by him.

I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, and in an instant, the headache started again, I couldn't help but make a noise, my eyelids were heavy again, and I nodded to Xiao Ning before falling asleep, expressing my agreement.

Before I fell into a daze, I seemed to hear his staccato speech, I couldn't hear what he was saying, but I felt that his voice had a lullaby magic

In Xiao Ning's arms, there was the painkiller that Mr. Ge sent with the letter, although it could not cure her illness, at least it would relieve her symptoms and pain.

Because it was so important, he carried it with him.

Xiao Ning slowly mashed the pills in a bowl and mixed the tea in the pot to make a medicinal soup.

A smile flashed in his eyes when he remembered the conditions she had agreed to, but in an instant, an irrepressible sad expression appeared on his face.

When the medicinal soup cooled, Xiao Ning lowered his head and took a sip slowly

After several days of traveling, the carriage kept rushing on the mountain road leading to Yingtian day and night.

Xiao Ning ordered Shen Yan to go to Ying Tiancheng to answer first.

Before Xiao Ling'er arrived, he had to plan the resettlement preparations mentioned in the quid pro quo.

can not live in the imperial city, not in the Zihuan Palace, but the location he chose, this time, she is not allowed to refuse!

Instead of worrying that she will change her mind after she finds out, it is better to hide her at this extraordinary moment

When I woke up in the evening, the place where I lay had long since changed places, no longer in a bumpy carriage, but in a room in a house.

Fortunately, no one bothered me, and the only ones who appeared in front of me were two maids, one of whom was very much like my former maid Cui'er, the same age and similar in appearance.

The two of them took turns taking care of me, but Xiao Ning disappeared from me when I woke up.

For most of the day, I was asleep, but as soon as I woke up, I clearly knew that this was not the epidemic that Xiao Ning said that I was infected by treating patients in Xishan in the south of Jianghuai.

No one knows better than I do.

But as soon as this thought came to mind, I suddenly couldn't stop it!

I really want to go to Shikun Mountain when I have time, this idea is so strong, but unfortunately the body is really not angry, because people who don't even have the strength to get out of bed are difficult to get out of this courtyard.

With hope in my heart, my condition was slightly better, and I became the most obedient patient, and I drank all the medicines, bitter medicines, and tonic medicines handed to me by the maids.

I only hope that this symptom will be suppressed temporarily under the constant drug offensive, so that I can do what I want to do

In the Zihuan Palace, Xiao Ning wandered anxiously.

He walked from the main hall to the imperial garden, and then out of the study and into the corridor, just to wait for the next message from the dark guard.

At the other end of the corridor, Mr. Ge and the mute palace maid stood there, quietly looking at Xiao Ning from afar, not daring to come forward to disturb.

They all knew very well how important the news that the secret guard was going to send this time was to His Highness!

With his capable strength, he searched almost all the mountains near Guanlan in order to find the whereabouts of the last miracle doctor to appear there.

Until the evening, the long-awaited news was finally delivered to the study, and Xiao Ning couldn't help but open the secret letter sent by the secret guard.

In the next second, he took a few steps back, raised his hand and tore the secret letter to shreds!

He sat down on the chair in a gloomy manner, and in an instant, his heart was cold to the bottom!

(ps: Take this title to help me cool down, today near noon I went to the dental department to extract the wisdom teeth that tortured me for a long time, and the drowsy heat came up in the afternoon, and the body was too wasteful, alas.) I'm not in good shape today, sorry)
