Chapter 138: Pretending to be Sick
When he was about to arrive at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Jin Su took off his veil and walked forward slowly, pretending to be nothing.
She knew that the person guarding the door was the one who only changed the shift today, so she just had to lie that she came out before the day. After that, you can think of another way.
"Miss~"
Just as he was thinking about it, Bai Qi's crisp voice sounded.
Bai Qi happily ran over to hold her, and her eyes were shining with tears.
"Miss, you're back, you're really worried about me!"
Jin Su frowned slightly, put his other hand on Bai Qi's hand, and said softly, "It's okay, aren't I coming back?" ”
Bai Qi nodded, then looked her up and down carefully, and asked, "Miss, are you okay?" ”
Jin Su smiled and shook his head, "It's okay! ”
Then he asked, "Why are you here?" ”
"I saw that you haven't come back at dawn, I think something happened, and I want to go to you, but I'm afraid that if you go back to the house by yourself, it won't be the same as what I said, but you'll be a goof, so I have to wait here again!"
Jin Su nodded with satisfaction and praised, "Well, this time, it's quite smart!" ”
"Hey, it's not all," Bai Qi snorted disdainfully, and said proudly, "I also deliberately went to find the two people who were on duty last night, and one of them rewarded a pill of forgetting worries, saving trouble in the future!" ”
"Uh-huh, yes, yes, I was surprised to think of this!"
"Thank you, Miss, for the compliment! Hey~"
The two of them talked and laughed, calmly and calmly, and walked in.
The guard at the door, seeing Jinsu, asked attentively, "Miss is back?" ”
Jin Su only nodded lightly and didn't say much.
was about to walk through the garden to Hanlian Courtyard, and from a distance, I caught a glimpse of the third aunt Wang coming out of the Rosewood Courtyard, followed by Mama Han, and the two of them talked and laughed and walked towards the door of the house.
"What is the third aunt doing here?" Jin Su was a little puzzled.
Bai Qian shook her head and said, "The third lady hasn't been here for a long time, and the second day that Miss entered the palace came, I heard that it was for Miss Mo." ”
"Heh~ It's really embarrassing for her," Jin Su sighed.
"I also heard that the third lady fell in love with Lord Jin's second son and wanted to get married! I don't know if that's what happened today. ”
"Hmph, she thinks it's beautiful!" Jin Su scoffed and was very disdainful.
The beginning of spring is the time of the royal draft, and An Xiamo's mother and daughter should have been staring at this opportunity. At that time, no matter whether they enter the palace as concubines or which prince they give it to, their family can be regarded as royal relatives. But as soon as the last enclosure came out, the road was completely blocked, and I fell in love with the son of the Jin family, one of the best in Kyoto City!
I have to say that the third aunt's wishful thinking is indeed too loud!
When I returned to Hanlian Courtyard, the girls in the courtyard probably believed Bai Qi's words and couldn't see anything abnormal.
Only Mei'er, when serving tea to Jinsu, said with concern, "Is the eldest lady too tired, why is her face so ugly." ”
Jin Su smiled faintly and responded, "I'm a little tired, you and Xing'er go to get dinner and come back, I'm a little hungry!" ”
"Okay!" When Mei'er was done, she bowed and walked out.
Because Jinsu was injured on his right shoulder, it was inconvenient to eat. After a meal, I only ate the two side dishes in front of me.
"Miss, didn't you just say that you were hungry, why do you only eat so little? Is the meal not to your taste? Meier asked.
"You don't understand this, the more hungry you are, the more you can't eat more, you have to let your body adapt to it first!" Jin Su said matter-of-factly, but she was stunned to frighten Mei'er.
"Do you want to eat it later?" Meier asked.
Jin Su pointed to the dim sum farthest away from her with her left hand and said, "Keep those two plates of dim sum and eat them later!" ”
"Good!"
Jin Su went inside, and instructed, "Bai Qi, go and prepare some hot water, I want to bathe!" ”
Bai Qian was slightly stunned, as if she didn't hear her words clearly, and asked rhetorically, "Miss, are you taking a bath now?" ”
"Well, yes, let's go!"
"Okay," Bai Ji answered, and beckoned Mei'er to go out with her, leaving Xing'er to clean up in the house.
Jin Su sat in front of the bed, flipped through the medical book casually, and pretended to be very serious.
"Miss, the water is ready." Bai Qi said.
Jin Su glanced at Bai Qian, and Bai Qi immediately understood, and turned to Mei'er.
"You go down first, I'll serve here alone."
"Okay, the slave maid will go out and wait outside, and wait for the eldest lady's orders at any time."
After Mei'er went out, Bai Ji closed the door smoothly.
Jinsu walked to the bathtub and took off her clothes one by one, leaving only a close-fitting belly pocket. The wound on his right shoulder seemed to be oozing blood again, and the gauze that had been tied red had turned red.
She gritted her teeth and took off the gauze layer by layer, and with each layer, the color of the blood stains became more dazzling.
"Miss, how are you—" Bai Qi saw it and hurriedly stepped forward.
"Shhhh Be quiet! Jin Su lowered his voice and stopped Bai Qi's shouting.
"Didn't you say it's okay? How did you get hurt? Bai Qi asked in a low voice, while taking the gauze in Jinsu's hand and helping her take it off.
"Minor injuries, it doesn't matter! Put the gauze you removed into the tub and go get some hemostatic powder and put it on for me. ”
Bai Qi followed Jinsu's instructions, applied medicine, and then bandaged, with gentle movements and skillful.
"Miss, what's going on?" Bai Qi asked.
Jin Su told Bai Qi a series of experiences such as how she fought with Kong Qing and how she was injured that night, including that Kong Qing may have recognized her, but she didn't mention anything about the part where she was later treated by Prince Li.
After hearing this, Bai Qian was stunned for a moment, and his face was sad.
"It is still unclear what the Eighth Highness's intention is to arrest us. Could it be that it's just to bring down Liang Guogong and others? Or, is there something else going on? Jinsu muttered.
"It shouldn't be a good thing to be targeted by His Royal Highness the Eighth, but he is notoriously ruthless and ruthless! Before you were brought into the palace by the Queen Mother, my sister also begged him, thinking that he could help one or two in the palace, but who knew that he would refuse! It's really a stone in a snowy mountain, cold and hard! ”
Speaking of Feng Yao, Bai Qi chattered and complained.
It turns out that there is such a thing! That Feng Yao personally led her in the palace, and took her to Emperor Ji Wu to redress her grievances, which should be regarded as helping her!
"Mei'er~ What are you doing there?"
Outside, Apricot's voice rang out.
Jinsu and Bai Qi glanced at each other, and she put on her clothes vigilantly and pointed outside.
At this time, Mei'er responded hesitantly, "Hey, it's Xing'er, you're so shocked, you're scared to death, aren't I about to go in and add some hot water to the eldest lady." ”
"I watched you stand there for a while, and I thought you were eavesdropping on the eldest lady!"
"Shhhh Xing'er, you can't talk nonsense, if the eldest lady hears it, it's terrible! ”
The voices of the two of them gradually became quieter.
Bai Qian's face was slightly gloomy, and while cleaning up her things, she scolded in a low voice, "This Mei'er is just a thing that eats inside and out, and now she has learned to lie on the wall, how can we accommodate her in our courtyard!" ”
"No, don't touch her for the time being, keep it useful, feed the Forget the Worry Pill first!" Jin Su said expressionlessly.
Bai Qiansui was a little angry, but he didn't object.
On the second day, Jin Su said that he was infected with the wind and cold, his whole body was weak, and he was bedridden, except for the old lady, and the rest of the people did not see a single one.
In order to be realistic, Bai Qian also personally invited Kong Yidu.
So, in just one day's work, everyone in the entire prime minister's mansion knew about Jinsu's cold. Even the Rosewood Academy sent Sanxian to condole.
This sudden wind chill was originally pretended by Jin Su, of course, as a doctor, she naturally knew what the real wind chill should look like, so it was easy to deceive the old lady and Sanxian.
She did this, firstly, because she wanted to take the opportunity to recuperate from her injuries, and secondly, so that she could also justify her contact with Kong Yi in the way of medical treatment.
Then by the way, tell him everything that has happened in the Night Gate recently, so that he can take precautions early!
The only thing she didn't expect was An Xiayu!
I don't know if it was to show her loyalty, An Xiayu insisted on staying in Hanlian Courtyard to take care of her, and said that it was a special approval from the old lady and Princess Jinyan, so Jinsu didn't know how to refuse, so she had to go with her.
Even Bai Qi couldn't help but sigh, "Why is the second miss so concerned this time?" It's been three days in a row, and every day it comes just after dawn and leaves late at night! If there is any spare room in our house, I think she would be eager to move here! ”
After raising her for so many days, although her right shoulder is not completely healed, some normal movements are no longer so difficult.
On the fifth day of Jinsu's illness, An Suqing and Qin Xiangyue came to Hanlian Courtyard to see her, and also served as a messenger.
"Suqing, your legs, are they completely fine?" A few people sat in the main hall drinking tea, or Jin Su asked first.
An Suqing smiled innocently, "It's been fine for a long time, thanks to the eldest sister's ointment!" ”
"Miss, you are in a hurry this time, but now it seems that you are recovering well!" Qin Xiangyue said softly.
"Miss Qin, don't call me eldest lady, either call me Jinsu, or call me eldest sister with Su Qing."
"The eldest sister also said Yue'er, aren't you also a Qin girl?" An Su cleared the way.
"Oh yo, you kid, you're really a short-guard. Come on, then in the future, I will be like my grandmother, calling you Yue'er! Jin Su smiled.
"Oh, yes!" Qin Xiangyue replied shyly, her little face flushed.
"Oh, by the way, eldest sister, this is what Uncle Wang asked me to bring, I originally gave it to me two days ago, but I thought you were sick and it was inconvenient to disturb, so I never sent it over!"
An Suqing said and handed a burden to Bai Qi.
"The prince is really interested in these three birds, and now it is getting colder and colder, and I am still worried about where to find food for them!" Bai Qi took the burden with a smile and put it next to the three birdcages as a matter of course.
After An Suqing heard this, they all laughed.
