Chu Jingchuan listened to Zhu Lu's words, but he didn't say anything, and he couldn't see any emotion on his face.

Zhulu saw him step forward and immediately blocked in front of him. "General...... Niangniang lost too much blood and needed to recuperate. ”

Even if Niangniang had something to do with him in the past, he shouldn't be so ruthless. If he still wants his mother to live, he should make her pure.

If Niangniang really has three long and two short, the first person to regret it must be him.

Chu Jingchuan's thick eyebrows frowned slightly. "Stand down, all of you."

Zhulu was stunned when she heard this, if they all retreated, who would take care of Niangniang?

"Slaves and maids don't leave."

Chu Jingchuan saw that she still dared to resist herself, and her face became even colder for a while.

"What? Are you as unafraid of death as your master? ”

"Yes, the slave and maid have been serving the mother for half her life, and the slave and the maid are willing to live and die with the mother, so as not to be lonely and lonely on the Huangquan Road." As she spoke, Zhulu burst into tears.

Chu Jingchuan knew that she was telling the truth, so he had no intention of embarrassing her: "Your master will not die." I'm here to watch over her tonight. ”

His tone returned to softness, no longer full of anger.

Zhulu was slightly frightened.

"There you go." Chu Jingchuan didn't want to say more, and waved his hand again.

Zhulu bit her lip and thought for a moment before getting up and leaving.

She didn't let go of Chu Jingchuan, but silently remembered in her heart what Niangniang said when she woke up.

"This bitter ploy can't be ...... in vain"

Candlelight, Chu Jingchuan sat slowly beside Meng Xilan's bed.

Her face was still as pale as paper, her breathing was smooth, and she slept soundly.

Chu Jingchuan looked at her quietly, and his heart suddenly ached, as if there was a wound on his body, the wound was torn, and it hurt with every heartbeat and breath he had.

It hurt her, but it hurt her even more.

Chu Jingchuan couldn't help but take a deep breath, bowed his head beside her bed, and sighed.

She knew that she owed him and the Chu family. So, is she really going to use her name as compensation? She was never an innocent woman, and she definitely didn't think that as long as she died, all this would come to an abrupt end.

What about the Prince? What about the Meng family? and Zhou Youchen, the man for whom she sacrificed everything, regardless of life and death, honor and disgrace, and tried her best to protect her. Didn't she even care about him?

Chu Jingchuan grabbed one of her hands, spread out her palm, and gently pressed it against his face.

Her hands were cold, and they were the same as before...... Once upon a time, yes, once upon a time.

The moment the skin touched, Chu Jingchuan couldn't help but recall the past. Those small memories, those beautiful past.

In the past ten years, he can often think of her, and even fantasize that she is still by his side...... Never left.

He clenched her hand greedily, his gloomy gaze froze with the memory, and his thoughts drifted farther and farther away.

Just as he was still in his trance, Meng Xilan's fingertips suddenly moved.

Chu Jingchuan came back to her senses in an instant and subconsciously let go of her hand. He hurriedly raised his eyes and saw that Meng Xilan's long eyelashes trembled and moved, as if he was about to wake up.

Chu Jingchuan hurriedly stood up, turned his back, and hurriedly and nervously put away the affection on his face. He couldn't let her see how sad he was for her......

When she turned around again, Meng Xilan had really woken up.

Her eyes were slightly confused, her mouth fluttered slightly, and she said slurred words.

Chu Jingchuan couldn't hear clearly, and only looked at her with a sharp gaze.

"What did you say?"

"Water...... Water ......" Meng Xilan closed her eyes, and she couldn't use all her strength to say these two words.

Chu Jingchuan understood this time, and immediately went to the table to pick up the teapot in the stove.

Warm water, pour into a cup, and then into her mouth. But she had a wound in her abdomen, and she could not sit up, and when the water came to her mouth, she could not drink it.

Chu Jingchuan looked at the water flowing from her mouth and couldn't help frowning.

Meng Xilan pretended to be uncomfortable and coughed lightly, almost involving the wound.

Zhu Lu obviously prepared a spoon, but Chu Jingchuan had never taken care of a person like this, and his thinking was very simple.

He poured another glass of water, drank it with his head up, held it in his mouth, then leaned over, and then gave it to Meng Xilan little by little in a mouth-to-mouth manner.

Such an intimate gesture made Meng Xilan's eyes widen subconsciously.

She didn't resist, she didn't have the strength to resist, she could only obey softly.

The feeling of lips and teeth intertwining is still enough to make people's hearts move.

Chu Jingchuan fed her water, then stood up straight and turned his head: "If you dare to seek death again, I will personally send the prince on the road in front of you!" ”

"Meng Xilan, you'd better not test my patience again."

Meng Xilan listened quietly, and a thought hurriedly turned in her heart.

She didn't gnaw, just bit her lower lip hard, tears glistening in her aching eyes.

Chu Jingchuan saw that she didn't answer, turned around to look, and saw her tearful and forbearant appearance, and a little unbearable in his heart, but his mouth was still unforgiving: "Don't think that if you pretend to be pitiful, I will be soft-hearted......"

Meng Xilan could see through him at a glance, so when he opened his mouth to say this, she immediately closed her eyes and let the tears flow slowly from the corners of her eyes.

Silent and heavy......

"You!" Chu Jingchuan's mood suddenly became a little impatient.

Meng Xilan burst into tears and was silent for a long time before she said, "What am I going to do so that you are willing to forgive me?" ”

Forgive? When Chu Jingchuan heard these two words, he felt unbearable heartache.

"Meng Xilan, I will never forgive you in my life."

Even if Wuwu forgave her, even if Izumishita Zhizhi's Jingwen forgave her, but he wouldn't!

He wants to live his life with a grudge against her, instead of continuing to be controlled by her in the palm of his hand as before.

If there is no love, where does the resentment come from?

Meng Xilan's tears welled up again when she heard this.

Chu Jingchuan continued: "Your injury will take at least ten days to heal. When you're well, I'll continue to torture you. ”

What he said was obviously wrong, and every time he bullied her, he would only hurt himself even more.

Meng Xilan opened her mouth slightly, but she didn't say a word, just smiled sadly.

If there is no accident, the emperor will soon be able to notice the strangeness of the capital. When the time comes, he will return to Beijing as soon as possible to rescue.

She dragged this sick and weak body, which was enough to make Chu Jingchuan's heart soften......

Chu Jingchuan saw her crying, turned around and went to the table again, took a sip of water, and crossed it into her mouth.

Only this time, he didn't leave in a hurry.

He had never kissed her, for the first time. A kiss that is more than ten years late is not as heart-pounding as it was back then, and it is actually bitter and entangled.

…

The news of Meng Xilan's injury has been strictly guarded by Chu Jingchuan. However, there are still people on the side of the hospital who have leaked the news. But when the news was half revealed, some people chased after the wind and disturbed people's hearts.

Some people say that she was seriously injured, some people say that she was abused and beaten by Chu Jingchuan and only half of her life is left, and some people say that she is actually dead......

Changsheng knew that the queen mother was injured, but he felt that the five thunders were thundering, and he was extremely angry in his heart, so he simply didn't care about anything.

He pushed all the folds in front of him to the ground, and got up in a heavy breath to leave.

Shen Dan was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can't go out without permission, there are all General Chu's people outside......"

Where was Changsheng willing to listen to her, only to leave her far behind.

Shen Dan hurriedly ran with Xiao Chunzi to catch up, and at the moment when he was about to push the door out, they both knelt in front of him and begged with a cry: "Your Highness, you go out now, if there is a bad one, what should the queen do?" She's still waiting for you to find a way to save her? ”

Changsheng shouted loudly: "You get out of here!" ”

He didn't want to save his mother, but he had no soldiers and no power in his hands, how could he balance that Chu Jingchuan!

After his father left Beijing, he took away the only troops of the imperial court. He has no one at his disposal, and half of the military generals in the court are promoted by Chu Jingchuan, or support his juniors.

The reason why he obeyed Chu Jingchuan's words was for the sake of his mother and to delay time.

Shen Dan hugged Changsheng's leg and begged bitterly: "Your Highness, don't be impatient. Whether the news is true or false is unknown...... Maybe someone deliberately provoked something else. His Royal Highness is now rashly going out, angering General Chu, and that lady will have something to do even if she is fine. ”

She just felt that it wouldn't be true, even if there was no wind and no waves, things wouldn't be as evil as the rumors.

Chu Jingchuan has a deep relationship with Niangniang, how could he do it easily! Without the queen mother, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hits a stone with an egg, he will have to fight him.

"Your Highness, I beg you...... It is better for His Royal Highness to lie that he is unwell, ask Lord Jiao to come over to check his pulse, and ask him clearly when the time comes. ”

Shen Dan was in a hurry, but he thought of a good way.

The light in Changsheng's eyes flashed, and his expression changed slightly.

"It's okay to pretend to be sick, it's just too difficult to hide Chu Jingchuan's eyeliner."

Shen Dan was secretly relieved to see that he was persuaded by himself.

"Chu Jingchuan is just a general, not a doctor, he doesn't understand pathology. Master Jiao is such a smart person, he will be thoughtful for His Highness. ”

Jiao Changqing has been in the palace for so many years, what kind of danger has not been seen, Shen Dan felt in his heart that he must have a way...... Anyway, he finally gave His Highness the truth, how is Niangniang now?

Jiao Changqing, as the head of the Tai Hospital, has been personally responsible for taking care of the prince's body for more than ten years.

He came to the outside of the prince's bedroom, was carefully inspected by the guards, and waited for half an hour before seeing His Royal Highness the prince.

Even if you are pretending to be sick, you must always pretend to be some. Changsheng's forehead was covered with cold sweat, his face was flushed, he was panting, and he looked very painful.

In fact, the sweat on his forehead was tea, and his face was red by himself, and as for panting, he ran back and forth around the house.

Jiao Changqing checked his pulse and knew that he was not sick, but he already understood what his mind was.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is afraid that he is suffering from the heat and his heart rhythm is irregular, so it seems that he needs to rest for a while."
