Chapter 8 Recuperation in the Palace

When I opened my eyes again, it was already time to light the lights, and the girl's cry came from my ears: "...... She passed out suddenly, and I don't know how. ”

The voice of the county lord of Jiangdu: "Ah Rong, you can't be blamed for this, Zhuo Wu was not in good health in the first place, he must have relapsed from his old illness and fainted." ”

After a pause, she continued: "Brother, I have punished the palace maid on duty, Zhuo Wu is fine, don't be angry with Ah Rong about this."

Zhuo Ruoning turned her head, and through the tulle curtain on the shelf bed, she vaguely saw a young man wearing an apricot yellow round-necked robe, standing at the door with his back to her, Xi Rong was crying with pear blossoms and rain, and the county lord was comforting her.

After being silent for a long time, the young man said: "Miss Zhuo is weak, and the doctor told her not to blow the wind, so don't take her to the water's edge in the future." ”

The county lord of Jiangdu looked unhappy and defended: "We are also kind, seeing her alone in the palace, we are afraid that she will be bored, so we will take her out to enjoy the flowers, who knows that she can't blow the wind." ”

Boy: "It looks like you won't wake up for a while, my sister and cousin will go back first, you're tired after tossing for so long." ”

Jiangdu County Lord: "You are a man, it is inconvenient to stay here, there are palace maids watching here, it will be fine." ”

Teenager: "Zhuo Xiao is my companion, and we have been good since we were young." His sister was sick, and I naturally had to take good care of it. When it comes to taking care of my younger siblings, I'm used to it. ”

The two girls persuaded him a few more words, but the boy was unmoved. After they had left, he turned back into the house.

Zhuo Ruoning turned her head when she heard the footsteps and saw a young man with a beautiful face.

"Finally woke up, is there anything uncomfortable?"

The timbre of the teenager, like the warm sun of spring, is very gentle.

Zhuo Ruo's gaze turned around the young man's face several times, and then he recognized that it was Liu Xiao, the second emperor Sun who met outside the Wuying Palace.

Liu Xiao has clear eyebrows, fair skin, warm lips, and gentle eyes, and can be seen to be a person with a good temper and cultivation, and he has no royal family at all.

"Second Emperor Sun, who is the person who saved me?"

Liu Xiao smiled gently: "You fainted, it was my sister Jiangdu County Lord and cousin Ah Rong who sent you back." You're frail and haven't recovered yet, so even if you want to go out and walk around, you'll have to take a few more people with you. ”

Zhuo Ruoning didn't understand why the county lord of Jiangdu and Xi Rong lied, maybe there was something hidden, and she was not easy to debunk, so she only suppressed the doubts in her heart and said "um" softly.

As she spoke, the palace maid came in with the medicine: "Second Emperor Sun, Miss Zhuo should take the medicine." ”

Zhuo Ruoning was like being pointed, and suddenly her whole body resisted, "I don't take medicine, I feel much better, and I can go home now." ”

"It's not okay to go home." Liu Xiao held her down and told the palace maid to get some candied fruit.

Turning his head and saying gently: "The case has not been investigated yet, although the imperial grandfather promised you that you don't have to go to prison, he didn't say that you could go home." ”

Zhuo Ruoning was so aggrieved that she was about to cry: "I have said everything I know, and the others have nothing to do with me, my father is really brainless......"

She looked at Liu Xiao's inquiring gaze, and suddenly realized that this was the emperor's grandson, so she learned to be tactful without a teacher, and the words swirled in her mouth.

“…… Check it out and then report it, how can you bother the emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”

Liu Xiao didn't poke at her, and said softly: "The jade pendant was rewarded by my mother's concubine, how can your father check it?" ”

He said and helped Zhuo Ruoning sit up: "This is a warm tonic soup prescribed by the imperial doctor, and you can only recover after drinking it, otherwise your disease will only get worse and worse, and in the end, you don't have to use medicine." ”

Even if he boasted of a flower, it was still medicine, and Zhuo Ruoning refused to eat it.

Liu Xiao was helpless, his fingers tested the temperature of the medicine bowl, and he was about to persuade again, when footsteps came from the door, and a slightly hoarse voice said: "It's just that the second emperor and grandson have a good temper, but they don't look like you." ”

Zhuo Ruoning was taken aback when she saw someone coming, Liu Xiao turned around and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "Geng Kan, you are here." ”

Geng Kan saluted Liu Xiao, then raised his chin to Zhuo Ruoning, and asked with a straight face: "Why don't you drink medicine!" ”

Zhuo Ruoning is a person who is born to bully the soft and fear the hard, seeing that Geng Kan is aggressive, which is completely different from when he met in Zhuo's Mansion that day, he knew that he was pretending to be kind to Zhuo Li and his wife that day.

Today, without the support of her family, she had to give in.

"Drink it when it's cold...... Right? ”

"When it's cold, the effect of the medicine will be dissipated." Liu Xiao stuffed a pillow behind her back, picked up the medicine bowl and handed it to her.

Zhuo Ruoning had no choice but to reach out to take it, but she didn't have the strength, and she shook the bowl so much that the medicine spoon clanged.

Geng Kan's eyes were quick, and he stepped forward to hold the bottom of the bowl to avoid spilling the medicinal juice on the bedding, but a few drops splashed on his hands, and he frowned.

Liu Xiao got up to give him a place and shook his head: "Feed it, she's too weak." ”

Zhuo Ruoning looked at Geng Kan's impatient face, and knew that he had never done the work of serving people, so he hurriedly shook his head: "I can do it, I don't need to feed it." ”

"Be honest, drink it quickly." Geng Kan ordered, his voice was very deep, very domineering, and could not be refuted.

Zhuo Ruoning was frightened, pinched the corners of the quilt, and was aggrieved.

This unpromising appearance somehow hit Geng Kan's soft underbelly, he is a man who eats soft and does not eat hard, and he is righteous, and has a strong desire to protect the weak.

Realizing that his tone was a little heavy, he looked at the medicine bowl in his hand helplessly, and his mouth softened, "It's just a matter of one mouthful, look at your hard work." ”

Zhuo Ruoning pursed her lips and retorted: "My mouth and throat are not as big as yours, how can I finish drinking it in one gulp?" The medicine is really bitter, I don't believe you taste it. ”

Geng Kan ran out of patience, his face fell, and he said irritably: "I'm not sick, what are you doing with your medicine." ”

Turning his head to Liu Xiao, he said, "I didn't wronged her, it's more difficult to serve than when I was a child." ”

Liu Xiao stood aside with his hands crossed, like a melon-eating crowd, with a kind smile on his face, and it was funny to see him being tortured and mad.

"I'll go outside and give you something, and I'll leave it to you here." He slipped away wittily first.
