Chapter 24: Trying to Refuse Favor

The night is quietly coming, and the wind is blowing quietly. Xingchen Garden, lack of moon and dredging.

In the room, a handsome figure is reflected in the window, charming and moving, depicting a beautiful picture.

Then, the figures floated, chaotic, and the shadows overlapped and overlapped, like schools of fish competing for bait in a pond.

Then the door opened, and one by one the little Si men came out of the house.

Soon, there was only one figure left in the window appealing about the sorrow of the night.

Then, a pleasant but slightly sad voice came from the room, "The water is too hot, go and fetch a bucket of cold water." ”

After a while, two little Si came and walked into the house carrying a bucket of cold water.

After seeing the cold water brought in, Chen Ziwei instructed the little ones in the house:

"Go down, you all go down, this horse doesn't need to be served."

At this time, Xiao Si looked at Chen Ziwei's weak appearance, and asked kindly: "Donkey, do you want the slaves to help the horse adjust the water temperature?"

Chen Ziwei saw the loyalty on that Xiao Si's face, so he said patiently:

"No need, let's all go down, this horse has not had the habit of bathing and letting others serve him since he was a child."

The little Si realized that he was too talkative, so he stopped talking, and obediently withdrew with the other Xiao Si.

Soon, only Chen Ziwei was left in the house.

There was no one from the front to disturb, and Chen Ziwei breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at the bucket of cold water and felt a chill in his heart, but he couldn't back down.

He quickly took off his coat, walked into the big bath, and with great difficulty picked up the bucket of cold water and poured it on his head, and the cold water flowed down from the top of his head, and soon, to his ankles.

He splashed himself from beginning to end, and after the cold water ran out, Chen Ziwei felt a chill instantly invade his body, and Chen Ziwei couldn't help but shiver.

In this cold autumn, Chen Ziwei did not immediately immerse himself in hot water, but chose to directly ignore the heat source next to him and accept the test of cold.

In this way, Chen Ziwei only wore a thin soaked underwear, and stood for an hour, the cold air spread all over his body, invaded his skin, frozen his blood, he was shivering from the cold, but his feet did not move a step.

He just let the cold current run rampant through his body, freezing every organ and cell of him, until his brain sank and fell into the bath.

However, his cold body was suddenly met with a warm current of heat that stimulated his nerves, and he gradually regained consciousness under the collision of cold and hot air currents.

And at this moment, his body gradually became hot.

He slowly wiped his hot body, struggled to the edge of the bed, and wrapped himself in the quilt.

Chen Ziwei looked at his already dilapidated body, and two tears couldn't help but flow down.

At this moment, his head was dizzy, he wanted to sleep, but he couldn't, he used what little consciousness he had left to keep his mind clear, waiting for the arrival of the county lord.

After a while, there was a knock on the door, followed by a voice that said, "Pony, are you alright?"

Chen Ziwei knew that he was not the county lord, because the county lord never knocked on the door in his own house, and she didn't need to knock on the door.

Chen Ziwei heard Xiao Si's voice, so he shouted to the outside: "Okay, come in."

Then a few Si came and removed the water and the barrels.

Then he closed the door.

Chen Ziwei buried his head deep in the quilt, and said anxiously: Why haven't you come yet? I can't hold it anymore.

After a while, the door was directly pushed open, and Chen Ziwei knew without thinking about it that the county lord was coming.

"Chen Ziwei." After the county lord pushed the door open, seeing that no one came to greet her, she went straight to the inner room.

As soon as she arrived inside, she saw Chen Ziwei trembling tightly wrapped in the quilt.

"Ziwei, what's wrong with you?"

The county lord looked at Chen Ziwei's appearance, very much like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, afraid of the arrival of Orion's butcher's knife, she couldn't help but comfort softly: "What's wrong? Take the quilt away and see if everyone is stuffy. ”

After the county lord finished speaking, he tried to get his quilt, and after Chen Ziwei felt his irresistible strength in his body, he lifted the quilt and wrapped himself in the county lord's arms.

The county lord looked at Chen Zi, who looked like a little rabbit, and couldn't help but be full of joy, so he hugged him.

Chen Ziwei's body was hot, and a stream of heat suddenly spread from her palm to her brain.

Suddenly, the county lord realized something, looked at Chen Ziwei with both eyes, and saw Chen Ziwei smiling to himself groggyly.

"Ziwei, Ziwei, you have a fever." The county lord seemed a little anxious at the moment.

"I have a fever, no...... There is no ......"

Chen Ziwei looked at the county lord vaguely: "County master, slave family...... Miss you...... How do you become ...... Two too. ”

The county lord came, and Chen Ziwei finally couldn't hold on anymore, so he fell asleep.

The county lord put Chen Ziwei down, covered him with a quilt, and anxiously shouted to the outside world: "Come on, go and ask for an imperial doctor."

Hearing the summons of the county lord, a voice outside the house immediately replied, "Yes, county lord."

Then I heard the sound of hurried footsteps drifting away.

At this moment, Wu Ji was standing with a doctor in a cluster of green vines in Xingchen Garden.

Then, Xiao Si hurriedly ran out, seeing that the situation was not good, and wanted to go into the house to see, but at this time, the doctor grabbed Wu Ji, "Didn't you come to let me see a doctor?" I haven't seen a doctor yet, so you can't go. ”

Wu Ji quietly handed the doctor a piece of silver, and hurriedly said, "Doctor, it's troublesome, you can go back now."

The doctor wondered very much, I still have a lot of patients to see, why did no one get sick and hurriedly pulled me here, but, realizing the heavy weight on his hand, and seeing the silver that Wu Sho had given him, he instantly closed his mouth.

After sending the doctor away, Wu Ji broke in directly.

After Wuji entered, he saw a figure appear next to the horse's bed, and Wuji exclaimed, "County Lord." ”

When the county lord saw Wu Yu appear, his face was obviously a little unpleasant, "Ziwei has a fever, do you know?" ”

Wu thought that today the colt said that he had a headache, but the colt said that it was an old disease, so he went to the doctor. At this moment, the county lord said that the horse had a fever, could it be that the horse's old illness was a fever?

Wu Ji was very embarrassed at the moment, facing the county lord's questioning, did he say that he knew? Or do you not know?

Seeing the entanglement on Wuji's face, the county lord said impatiently: "Go out, go to the door and guard outside." ”

So, Wuyu was kicked out of the door and guarded the house.

It seems that tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

After a while, "The county lord, the county lord, the imperial doctor is here." ”

Xiao Si began to shout hurriedly since he entered the Star Garden.

When Wuji heard it, he immediately stopped him, "What are you shouting, don't disturb the purity of the county lord and the concubine." The Imperial Doctor, please come here. ”

Wu Ji opened the door and asked the imperial doctor to go in, this time Wu Yan didn't dare to trespass into the inner room again, just stood behind the screen and gently reminded, "County Lord, the imperial doctor is here." ”

"Come in." The county lord said hoarsely.

"Yes, County Lord."

After the imperial doctor walked in, the county lord immediately stood up from the side of the bed and said majestically: "Treat the horse well, if the horse can't wake up, you don't want to go back."

Seeing the seriousness on the county lord's face, the imperial doctor trembled and said, "Yes, county lord, the lower officials will definitely do their best."

As soon as the imperial doctor's words fell, the county lord walked out of the inner room.

It is said that the presence of others will disturb the spiritual communication between the doctor and the patient, and affect the patient's future fate.

As a result, even the saints today cannot be present when the imperial physician is treating them.

The county lord sat upright outside, motionless, extremely calm.

However, Wu Ji knew that he had followed the county lord for so many years, and the more calm the county lord became, the more it meant that she was suppressing a certain emotion at the moment. Wuzhi can guess that the county lord is worried about the colt.

As for why the county lord behaved like this? The reason for this is not anything else, because she is the master of the county king's mansion, and she can never show her weak side in front of everyone.

Inside the house, Chen Ziwei was lying quietly, his face extremely haggard.

Outside the house, the county lord and Wuyu stood quietly, indescribably silent.

The clock ticked by......

I don't know how long later, the imperial doctor came out.

Wuji couldn't hold back any longer, and said to the imperial doctor, "How is the horse?"

The Imperial Physician looked at Wu Ji and shook his head.

Wu Ji grabbed the doctor: "You said it."

The county lord stepped forward and shouted, "Wu Ji, you go out first."

……

"Imperial Doctor Chen, just the two of us now, let's talk, this county mainly listens to the truth."

When Imperial Doctor Chen heard the county lord say this, he immediately spoke: "County lord, the cold air of the horse has entered the body, and it has been depressed in the heart for a long time, resulting in a high fever that does not go away.

When the county lord heard Imperial Doctor Chen's words, he frowned slightly, he had been depressed for a long time? Is she Shao Xuan not good to him? What else does he Chen Ziwei do?

It seems that her worries are completely superfluous, and she lowers the bottom line for him again and again, but what about him? There is a knot in the heart.

Imperial Doctor Chen continued: "County Lord, let the official say more, the old wounds on the horse's body have not healed and new injuries have been added, and the body is full of bruises, so in the future, please ask the county lord to be gentle, the horse's body is already weak, if it continues like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to conceive."

The county lord completely broke out, she had been very careful and gentle that day, how could she still have a new injury? Is he Chen Ziwei just a flower? Can you only watch it or can't pick it up?

The county lord said impatiently: "Imperial Doctor Chen, this county lord knows. Come, send off. ”

Imperial Doctor Chen sighed, the county lord was still too young and frivolous.

After Imperial Doctor Chen left, the county lord immediately went to the inner room, looked at the unconscious Chen Ziwei, and gently lifted the quilt, and the large bruises on Chen Ziwei's body immediately appeared in front of her eyes.

The county lord couldn't bear to look at it anymore, wrapped Chen Ziwei in a quilt, looked down at Chen Ziwei and said, "Ziwei, tell me, how did this come about?"

However, what was waiting for her was only Chen Ziwei's haggard face.
