Chapter 17: Little Marquis, Can I Sleep With You for a While?

ยท

Since Hanshan was the closest to the barracks, Gu Yutang asked people to go to the Lin Palace to say something, and he took Ruan Huai back to the barracks, so that the military doctor could come as soon as possible.

The doctor's diagnosis was that Ruan Huai had a high fever and some slight bone cracks on the outside of his ankle. It takes a month of recuperation, and only after the callus slowly grows can it fully heal and recover.

When Gu Yutang heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Ruan Huai who was sitting on the couch.

In his eyes, he seemed to be questioning Ruan Huai, riding a horse can break bones, how did Linhe Academy choose her to come.

But Ruan Huai lowered his head and sneezed, and did not make eye contact with him.

After Ruan Huai bandaged his wounds, Gu Yutang let the military doctor retreat.

When he turned to come back, he saw Ruan Huai holding a bowl of decoction in his hand, drinking it not very happily. Her fingers were white, reminiscent of the clean and beautiful texture of mutton fat jade porcelain, and her cleanly trimmed nails were short and had a distinct pink sheen.

Ruan Huai took several sips and looked at his tent furnishings with boredom.

"What's the matter with the wound on your hand?" Gu Yutang's gaze fell from her hand to her cheek, staring at her pale eyes.

Hearing this, Ruan Huai subconsciously looked down at his left hand holding the bowl, only to find that the gauze on his hand had unconsciously loosened.

Ruan Huai was stunned and replied: "Accidentally, scratched." โ€

"It's a knife wound." Gu Yutang's tone was cold, and he still stared at her for a moment.

Ruan Huai blinked, drank the rest of the decoction hard, swallowed his throat with difficulty, nodded lightly according to his meaning, and said, "Well, I was accidentally scratched by a knife." โ€

Gu Yutang looked at her without saying a word for a long time, but in the end he didn't ask anything, just looked back and said lightly: "I'll ask someone to notify my brother to come and pick you up." โ€

Gu Yutang said, turned around and left.

"I'm fine, Brother Yufeng has been very busy in the Hanlin Academy these two days, so don't bother him, I'll go back by myself later." Ruan Huai spoke softly, without any mental laziness.

As she spoke, she yawned, probably because of the medicine, and her eyelids became very heavy and heavy, and she wanted to be sleepy.

So Gu Yutang frowned and turned around, and saw Ruan Huai blinking sleepily, his voice was hoarse and sick, and he asked a little pitifully: "Little Hou Ye, can I sleep with you for a while?" โ€

Ruan Huai looked at him with some flowing eyes.

Gu Yutang only glanced at her, furrowed his eyebrows, and turned around and left without saying a word.

After leaving the tent, the cold wind carried the snow in his face, and the curvature line of his chin was cold, uncomfortably taut, and infected with a faint red, which was only blown away by the wind in an instant.

The cavalry on the other side of the training ground was practicing the formation, and it was quite loud, Gu Yutang turned around and looked at the camp tent behind him, and suddenly lowered his voice to the guards guarding outside the camp tent and ordered: "Let the movement of the training troops over there be smaller." โ€

Since His Majesty the Emperor was still having a banquet at the Lin Palace, Gu Yutang couldn't walk away for too long, so he then returned to the Lin Palace to participate in the banquet.

It's just that he thought that Ruan Huai would have to go back to the mansion after resting in his tent for a while, so he also told his subordinate Songquan before leaving, and asked Songquan to prepare the carriage and prepare to send her back to the house when Ruan Huai woke up.

But in fact, after he returned to the barracks from the Lin Palace, he asked the guards outside the camp tent, but learned that Ruan Huai had not woken up yet.
