Chapter 172: Care
The mother and daughter hugged for a while before parting, Du Qiniang stroked Shen Xizhen's head and said reluctantly: "You can sleep well tonight, and you can get married beautifully when you have enough spirits." Tomorrow morning, my mother will send someone to the prince's mansion to make your bed and transport your makeup to you, and tomorrow you will have to stay at home, and there will be a lot of tedious etiquette to be familiar with. ”
"Okay, then go back and rest, you've worked hard these days!" Shen Xizhen held Du Qiniang's hand tightly and said.
Du Qi Niang's eyes turned red again: "Silly girl, my mother is so busy with your marriage willingly, my mother only has a daughter like you, of course I have to take a good look at it." With that, he patted her on the shoulder and walked out gently.
I don't know if it was because she was soaked in the water for too long in the bath or because she was too busy recently, Shen Xizhen slept until midnight and felt a splitting headache and a dry mouth.
Oops, I have a lot of things to do today, but I am sick at this critical moment, Shen Xizhen sighed secretly: What a good thing to grind!
She hurriedly asked Xiang'er to boil a pot of boiling water, and told her to go to the storage room to get the fever-reducing pills.
After taking the pill, she lay down again, still feeling very hot, and her throat was sore from even swallowing saliva, she didn't want to wake up her mother and brother, she knew that they had been very tired to organize her wedding in the past few days, so she forced herself to concentrate on her luck, trying to force out the virus in her body little by little.
But she was so tired that she fell asleep in less than a quarter of an hour.
When she regained consciousness, she felt that someone around her was anxiously calling her name. There is also the sound of people walking in front of the bed. She hurriedly struggled to open her eyes.
What caught my eye was Du Qiniang's concerned expression.
Seeing her wake up, Du Qiniang burst into tears and laughed: "Silly girl, you don't tell me if you're burned like that." If Xiang'er hadn't come to sue me, I might have burned you stupidly. ”
Although the mother's tone was strict, it was also full of care, and Shen Xizhen smiled faintly.
"Mother, didn't I wake up?" Shen Xizhen smiled weakly at her, and when she raised her eyes again, Ji Yuelian and Shen Xibin were standing two feet away from her and looking at her with concerned faces. She couldn't help but feel hot in her heart, and hurriedly said to them: "Brother and sister-in-law, I'm fine." You don't have to worry. As he spoke, he suddenly wanted to cry again.
She realized that this was the last day she had been in the house as her daughter and sister, and she was so reluctant to let them go.
"And said it was okay. Your face is burning red. Today, you should lie down in peace, I have just sent someone into the palace to explain this matter to the emperor and the king of Qingping. Shen Xibin said.
"Will my wedding still go ahead as scheduled?" Shen Xizhen asked. She was afraid that she would miss the scheduled wedding date again.
"Your brother has already sent someone into the palace to report to the emperor and King Qingping, let them be mentally prepared first, in case you are really sick, you can only postpone the marriage." Du Qiniang said.
"No, the wedding can't be postponed this time anyway." Shen Xizhen hurriedly said, struggling to get up.
Du Qiniang hurriedly helped her sit up, but as soon as she sat up, she felt that the sky was spinning, and her eyes were suddenly dizzy.
"Tell the doctor." Shen Xibin hurriedly ordered his subordinates.
The next person had just run out on the front foot. Another subordinate came into the newspaper and said, "The king of Qingping is here." ”
The crowd was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly said, "Please." ”
Then the curtain was lifted. Chu Zihou walked in with a solemn face. Everyone hurriedly saluted him, and he nodded slightly at everyone and went straight to Shen Xizhen's bed.
"How is she?" Chu Zihou asked Du Qiniang.
"I'm having a high fever and I'm dazed." Du Qiniang said, moving the position where she was sitting.
"Let me wait for her." After saying that, Chu Zihou sat on the edge of the bed and hugged Shen Xizhen in his arms.
The subordinates suddenly looked embarrassed, and Du Qiniang's face was slightly embarrassed. It stands to reason that although the two of them are going to get married tomorrow, there is no wedding yet, and it doesn't seem appropriate for him to hold her like this and be in her boudoir, but what they don't know is that Chu Zihou and Shen Xizhen have already kissed and hugged each other, which only Xiang'er and Pepper know.
Chu Zihou looked indifferent, and said to Xiang'er: "Go and bring me a basin of water." Xiang'er immediately complied.
Shen Xibin and Ji Yuelian retreated in amusement, and Du Qiniang hesitated for a moment and retreated.
Only Chu Zihou and Shen Xizhen were left in the room.
"Ah Zhen, Ah Zhen, how do you feel?" Chu Zihou leaned his head and asked her in a low voice.
Her feverish little face was red, and he was distressed to see it.
My good girl, you have suffered so much! I must love you even more in the future. Chu Zihou said silently in his heart.
"Zi Hou...... Zihou ......" Shen Xizhen called his name intermittently, and couldn't help but hug him with both hands.
"I'm here, Ah Zhen, don't be afraid, I'm here with you." Chu Zihou said softly, holding her and coaxing her at the same time, it was like a mother coaxing a child, so that Xiang'er, who came in with clear water, couldn't help but move in her heart.
It is a blessing for a young lady to find a man as gentle and considerate as King Qingping!
"Soak the towel in clean water and wring it into a 70% dry for me." Chu Zihou instructed Xiang'er.
"Yes." Xiang'er hurriedly did so.
Chu Zihou personally put a towel on Shen Xizhen's forehead, changed to a more comfortable position, and continued to hold her.
Hee Zhen fell asleep peacefully in his arms.
Chu Zihou said to Xiang'er again: "Help me go and ask if the doctor is here." Xiang'er hurriedly took the order and left.
After a while, the doctor with the medicine box on his back hurried in.
After checking the pulse, the doctor said to Chu Zihou: "Her illness is caused by overwork and infection with wind and cold, and she must stay in bed for a few days." After that, he prescribed medicine to Xizhen for three days.
After the doctor left, Chu Zihou called his entourage in and ordered: "You go to the palace immediately to see the emperor, and say that Guang'an is seriously ill, and the wedding must be postponed." ”
Shen Xizhen, who was dazed, hurriedly shook Chu Zihou's hand when he heard this sentence and said, "No, there is no need to postpone, just go ahead with the original plan." ”
"It's good to go as planned, but I'm afraid your body won't be able to hold it." Chu Zihou looked at her with a gentle face. Of course, he also hopes to marry her as scheduled, which is something he has been looking forward to for a long time, but he can't bear to let her hold it with a serious illness, after all, when the wedding is held, it is necessary to kneel three times and bow nine times, with her current state, wouldn't it cost her half her life?
"I can do it, Zihou, I will definitely be able to do it with you by my side." Shen Xizhen said in a firm tone.
Because of his love, she was able to come to this day bravely step by step, how could she postpone the original plan and let everyone work hard in vain because of a small illness?
"Okay, it's up to you." Chu Zihou said with red eyes, stretching out his hand to signal the entourage to retreat. (To be continued......)
