Chapter 35: The Root of the Disease?
Yan Li suddenly paused, smiled as if self-deprecatingly, and said: "The Fourth Emperor Sister was born so beautiful and I have a mediocre appearance, others hold her as a palm flower but regard me as dust under my feet, and the resentment in my heart has been accumulated for many years...... If she wants to marry you, I'm going to let her not get it. ”
This statement is the most likely reason, Xia Nanxuan will definitely no longer suspect him.
But looking at Xia Nanxuan's cold eyes at that moment, why did his chest hurt so much, so painful...... Mother, An An feels so uncomfortable...... It's so uncomfortable!
Why does An An just want to avenge you, just want to marry the person she loves, but it is so painful!
She is really a selfish and vicious woman, Xia Nanxuan's usually plain eyes suddenly gloomy when she heard the words, until the water level has overflowed Yanli's waist and continues to spread up towards her chest, Xia Nanxuan did not let go of the hand holding the rope.
Soon, the water level in the dungeon had reached Yanli's neck, and if it was left for a little longer, it would reach her lips and spread over the tip of her nose...... Xia Nanxuan's face was calm, his hand holding the rope tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened, but after all, reason prevailed, he gritted his teeth and suddenly released the rope, and the sound of water suddenly stopped.
"The princess is in this water prison to reflect and reflect until you realize that you are wrong!" A sound of footsteps gradually walked away, and Xia Nanxuan just left.
I don't know how long it took, the chill to the bones was like the black water snake in the wild goose's dream, and she couldn't stop shivering, because her hunger and thirst consciousness was already a little unclear.
Lowering her head slightly to see this dark pool, Yanli moved her chapped lips, and the feeling of thirst had long been like that demon and kept shouting in her ear, "Drink, drink!" If you don't drink it, you'll die of thirst! But the only remaining pride in her heart has been fighting against this demon.
It's just that at this time, if you don't drink a sip of this water, I'm afraid I will really not be able to hold on......
If she died, how could she avenge her mother?!
She first tried to look up at the top of the dungeon, but luckily no one was there. Then she lowered her head slightly as if tentatively, and her lips slowly, slowly touched the surface of the water, like a rain after a long drought, and that little wet touch made it difficult for her to suppress her desire for water.
Suddenly lowering her head, Yanli completely submerged her lips in the water and gulped down.
But at this moment, a mocking voice sounded above, and Yanli stiffened almost instantly.
"This king thought that the princess had a strong temperament, but I didn't expect that she would not be able to stand the test." Xia Nanxuan stood above and looked down at her, and said with a cold face, "You just drank water, like a dog." ”
Yan Li's eyes widened almost instantly, and because she was still in a posture with her head down, Xia Nanxuan only saw her slowly straighten up, and vaguely saw that her whole body was trembling. Suddenly remembering the way she had been quietly lying on the torture bench and being scolded by the cane but not saying a word, he felt a pain in his heart for no reason.
Are you feeling sorry for her? No, no way!
If an ordinary woman was hungry and thirsty for a few days, she would have drunk the water in front of her, but she had survived to the limit, how could she not be surprised in her heart?
But he's going to say that, he's going to make her suffer, he's going to make her pay for what she's done!
Xia Nanxuan's face was calm, and he turned around and left after half a sound, and walked to the entrance of the water prison and looked at the two guards guarding this time, he didn't know how to have a wave of anger in his heart, so he flicked his sleeves so fiercely and said expressionlessly: "Release the princess!" ”
"Princess!" Cailan looked at Yanli, who was limping back, and hurriedly greeted her and said, "Are you okay?" ”
Her body was still wet at this time, her original ruddy face was as pale as paper, her full lips were dry and cracked, and there were even some blood stains remaining, and she looked like she had suffered a great deal of pain. The breeze was blowing, Yanli walked step by step, her ink hair was flying, she didn't say a word, revealing a distressing stubbornness.
Cai Lan said distressedly: "The prince is really ruthless! It turned out to be ......"
"Don't talk nonsense." Yanli stopped Cailan's words in a hoarse voice, "Help me in." ”
Seeing this, Cai Lan had no choice but to silence, and helped Yanli into the house and lay on the bed with tears in her eyes.
"Princess! Princess! Princess, what's wrong with you? Cai Lan was so anxious that tears rolled in her eyes, and she forced herself to carry Yanli on her back, and Cai Lan slowly carried Yanli into the room step by step, and then slowly put her on the couch.
Looking at Yanli's pale complexion, Cailan couldn't care about anything anymore, turned around and ran out, the princess was so seriously injured, she was going to find the princess, only the prince could save the princess!
When Cai Lan arrived at the door of Xia Nanxuan's study with a sweaty face, she was about to enter but was stopped by the two guards at the door.
"The prince is discussing important matters with the guests, and idle people are not allowed to enter."
Cai Lan was thinking about Yanli's injuries, where could she take care of these at this time, and when she saw that she was stopped and couldn't get in, she simply shouted at the top of her voice: "Lord Wang! Rajah! Help! Help! ”
"You!" The guards also knew that she was a personal girl brought by the princess, and when they saw her so sloppy, they really didn't dare to capture her directly.
I have to say that although Cailan's trick is unseemly, it is very effective, and after a while, the door of the study opens.
Xia Nanxuan looked at Cai Lan, and said with unkind eyes: "The master doesn't understand the rules, and sure enough, even the maid he brought is the same." Shouting in front of the king's study, what a system! ”
Although Cai Lan's little heart trembled with fright from his appearance, she still saluted and said, "Lord Wang, help!" The princess is dying! ”
Although she said this, Cai Lan said in her heart, "Bah, princess, don't blame me for cursing you like this...... Cailan is afraid that if she doesn't say so, the prince may not pass!
Sure enough, Xia Nanxuan's eyes changed when she heard this, and Yan Li's pale face suddenly appeared in her mind, could she really ...... He felt as if his heart was being held by a strong force. Looking back at the purple-clothed young man standing in the study with a playful face, Xia Nanxuan said, "Go with this king to take a look at her!" ”
Before the words fell, the steps had already taken out, and he looked a little anxious.
The purple-clothed young man raised his eyebrows, his eyes showed a bit of curiosity, and the corners of his lips were slightly curved to look at Xia Nanxuan's frowning brows, and an inexplicable smile appeared.
When the purple-clothed young man walked into Yanli's bedroom with Xia Nanxuan, his eyes first swept over the soaked woman on the bed, he frowned and took a few steps forward, and flipped over the woman's forehead with one hand, it was so hot!
Slightly shocked in his heart, he thought that it was just the princess who instructed this servant girl to bluff and want to win Xia Nanxuan's attention, but this time it seemed that this was not the case.
After concentrating, the purple-clothed young man lifted the woman's sleeve robe and looked at it, but saw a purple-black strangulation mark on the wrist that should have been condensed like jade, and it could be seen that this must have been caused by something like a rope, and the time was at least more than two days. Slightly lifted the collar of the woman's upper body to the collarbone, the purple-clothed young man's eyes changed, and the woman's whole body seemed to be swollen because of long-term immersion in water.
He opened his eyelids again and looked at the woman's eyes, and then asked Cailan to open the woman's mouth and take a closer look at the tongue coating, and then said, "Is there any other injury on the princess?" ”
Cai Lan had also seen these injuries on Yanli's body at this time, and she was already crying silently, and only said intermittently: "Slave maid is not ...... Know, the princess went back to the bedroom...... He fainted. ”
Xia Nanxuan stood not far behind Cai Lan with a calm face at this time and said, "There should still be a wound on her buttocks. ”
The purple-clothed young man raised his eyebrows and asked, "The punishment of the cane?" ”
Xia Nanxuan bowed slightly, his expressionless face only looked at Yan Li's pale face at this time, and his eyes flickered.
She was actually sick, and she didn't say a word, if he hadn't moved the guards to let her out of the water prison on the spur of the moment, would she have been soaking in the cold water with a high fever? Xia Nanxuan looked at her, his cold eyes, a little dazed, he had only known her for a few days, but her words and deeds seemed to be very clear when she recalled them at this time.
Xia Nanxuan's lips pursed, she was naturally far inferior to An An, An An was like a princess in the Holy Land in his heart, and no one could encroach on her territory. As for Yan Xingluo, because she resembles An An's appearance, she also has a kind of affection for her that is indescribable.
But the woman in front of her, she slept quietly on the bed, without the beauty of the country, not even pure and lovely, but she was so faint and not eye-catching, but she couldn't leave her.
Why was I so nervous just a moment? How could I sympathize with such a selfish, vicious and ordinary-looking woman? Why did this selfish and vicious woman shake his heart so much.
No, it can't be, it must be because Yanli is the princess of the Wild Goose Country, and if her life is out of business, it will affect her plans. Yes, it must be!
"The princess's wound must have been festered and inflamed because she had not been healed by soaking in cold water." The young man in purple said, "She has injuries on her body, and after inflammation, she has cold and enters her body, and her body is weak due to not eating, so she will faint with a high fever." ”
"Can you save it?" Xia Nanxuan asked, with a hint of impatience in his voice that he didn't even notice.
"If an ordinary woman is injured by this injury, I'm afraid that if she doesn't die, she will have to take half her life." The purple-clothed young man looked at him in surprise, and then said in a deep voice: "But the princess has some internal strength, she should be a martial artist, and her body is already better than that of ordinary women, so her life is fine." ”
Listening to the words of the purple-clothed young man, Xia Nanxuan seemed to unconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.
The purple-clothed young man first instructed Cai Lan to take off the wet clothes on Yan Li's body, first changed Yan Li's dry clothes, and then asked her to pour some warm water and feed it slowly with a spoon, so he said to Cai Lan: "Let the princess have a good rest first, I will wait for you to open two pairs of medicinal herbs, one for internal use and one for external application." ”
"Hey, the slave knows!" Cai Lan happily agreed, but when the purple-clothed young man saw this, he looked at Xia Nanxuan and pouted: "Don't be too happy, this time the princess is cold, I'm afraid there will be some roots of illness for the woman." ”
When Cai Lan heard this, she was shocked: "Huh? What will be the root of the disease? ”
The purple-clothed young man glanced at her and said lightly: "For a woman, what kind of disease do you say?" ”
