Chapter 142: Farewell
When Shen Huai and the others stayed in Qingcheng Mountain to detoxify, Song Xuan, the crown prince of the Song Kingdom, who was far away on the border of Dashen, was not much better than a few people at this moment.
"Your Highness!"
The guard lowered his voice and whispered something in Song Xuan's ear.
The originally gentle and casual young man smiled on his lips, but the cold light in his eyes lowered little by little. He glanced indifferently at the guards who came to report, quietly wiped away a bit of chill in his eyes, naturally and calmly drank the tea in his hand, and then shook the fan and led the people behind him upstairs slowly.
As soon as he entered the room and closed the door, Song Xuan tore off his disguise, and smashed the folding fan in his hand hard at the person who was reporting behind him, and the anger in his eyes couldn't be hidden: "Waste!" There are so many people sent out, and they can't even catch a single Shen Huai! What's the matter with the young lady of the Gu family? I can't even catch her, are you all a bunch of waste that I raise to eat dry food?! β
The man was hit on the forehead by the handle of the folding fan, but he did not dare to dodge. After suffering this blow, the guards didn't move, just lowered their heads, and were extremely ashamed: "Your Highness, we underestimated the people around King Xiao, and thought that he would not be able to escape our encirclement because of the lack of manpower, but.... That King Xiao is cunning by nature, and it turns out that he has secretly buried a group of people, and we ....."
"Shut up!" Song Xuan snorted irritablely, picked up the teacup on the table and threw it towards the person who reported it, his anger did not subside for a minute, "I thought you were a smart person, so I gave you all the people in my hands to deploy!" It's good now, Shen Huai has not been killed, and Gu Mingxiu has not been captured! It's got me stuck here! β
"Your Highness is angry!"
There was still uncooled tea in the teacup, which smashed on the guard's head, and it smashed red marks when it landed. The tea dripped down the man's sideburns, and his clothes were wet, but he just didn't move: "We originally kidnapped the Ming embroidery girl, but we were robbed back by King Xiao......." Seeing that Song Xuan was faintly angry, the guards hurriedly bowed their heads and said, "At that time, we heard King Xiao explain that the embroidered girl had a strange poison in her body, and we needed to find a doctor to treat her!" If His Royal Highness has the heart to use the Mingxiu girl, why not let King Xiao spend that effort to cure the poison on the Mingxiu girl. β
Song Xuan wanted to be angry, but he calmed down when he heard the words.
He glanced at the guard who spoke, and his eyebrows were already cold and heavy, but he no longer had the irritability of Fang Cai. Song Xuan sat down against the window, and was about to reach out to take the teacup, but he felt empty - the guard standing on the side saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the cup and pour a cup of tea for him.
Song Xuan glanced at the man, picked up the teacup expressionlessly, and took a sip of tea: "That's it, what you said also makes some sense." Then I ask you, what about the rest? He pressed his eyebrows, quite irritable, "We also need manpower on our side now, since we can't catch it, we can take it back over there, and it won't be difficult to settle this account with Shen Huai in the future." β
The guard was silent for a moment, and cautiously glanced at Song Xuan's expression: "Your Highness.... I'm afraid we won't be able to call our people back. β
Song Xuan's action paused: "What do you mean?" β
"All.... All ....." The guard lowered his head, the self-reproach on his face became more and more obvious, he took a deep breath, bowed his head and lowered his head again, "It's all folded in King Xiao's hands!" Now that there is no one available on Da Shen's side, Prince Shen may be willing to borrow manpower, but is it credible in the end......"
The guard hesitated and didn't continue.
"Rubbish!!" Raising his hand and smashing the teacup in his hand towards the door, the white porcelain cup was splashed with fragments, Song Xuan's eyes were cold, and the chill in his eyes became deeper and deeper, "Shen Huai!" What a Shen Huai!! β
The people around him didn't dare to speak anymore, and they all knelt down and didn't dare to speak. Looking at the people in the place indifferently, he stretched out his hand and pressed his eyebrows tiredly, Song Xuan's expression became more and more anxious: "One day I must settle this account with him Shen Huai!" The humiliation I suffered in Da Shen today, sooner or later, I will take it back from him with interest!! β
"Your Highness!" In silence, a person's voice sounded at the door, with a bit of deliberately suppressed joy and joy.
After knocking on the door, the man who entered, dressed as an ordinary person, he didn't look at the person kneeling down, he walked straight to Song Xuan, and whispered in his ear for a while, then he got up respectfully and waited for the order.
As he spoke, the expression on Song Xuan's face became more and more surprised, and then immediately turned into a little happy. He listened to the other party's report quietly, suddenly straightened up and slapped the table, and smiled slightly: "Okay! Very good! Returning to the original casualness and gentleness, Song Xuan smiled very comfortably, "I'll see how Shen Huai stops me this time!" β
"Send a message to Shen Yang immediately, this matter still needs his help."
Under the daylight, the delicately dressed noble boy smiled slightly, and the haze on his face was swept away.
After Gu Mingxiu woke up, it was on the third day after the drug test.
At that time, the warm sun was shining through the window, and the mottled bamboo shadow fell on the house. The green bamboo leaves came in through the window, lush, and swayed slightly with the wind. A pot of small orange flowers is in full bloom, on the windowsill, bathed in the warm sun between the bamboo shadows, swaying with the wind soft flower branches.
Xiao Wan'er changed into a blue dress, and was happily lying on the table holding a pen and writing. Her clothes were made for her by Gu Mingxiu before she tested the medicine, and she was sent to choose a pair of small shoes, and she only got them back today. Xiao Wan'er is very precious, and she has to straighten up from time to time to look at her clothes while writing on her stomach, for fear of being soiled.
She hummed the nursery rhyme that Gu Liyi taught her, and her voice was immature and gentle.
Gu Liyi listened to Xiao Wan'er humming a little song, looked back at the little girl who practiced calligraphy seriously from time to time, and then turned her head and continued to wipe Gu Mingxiu's cheeks. Stretched out her hand to pick up the basin and just stood up, she saw Xiao Wan'er also standing up with her, with a face full of anticipation: "Sister Liyi, is it that Xiao Wan'er has written all these words, and her mother will wake up?" β
In recent days, the effect of correcting the other party has not been great, Xiao Wan'er insisted on calling Gu Mingxiu her mother, even if she was scared and crying by Shen Huai's pretending to be fierce, she refused to change. Gu Liyi was worried about that story in her heart, and felt sorry for Xiao Wan'er's young age and poison, so she simply accepted her name.
Walking to Xiao Wan'er's side with a basin of water, Gu Liyi lowered her head and looked carefully at the words she wrote, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, when you write these words well, your father also praises you for writing well, then Sister Xiu will wake up and praise you." β
"Really!" Xiao Wan'er pursed her lips and smiled very happily, "Will my mother definitely praise Xiao Wan'er?" Then I'm going to ask Daddyβ" So saying, the little girl jumped out of her chair with the notebook, and ran out merrily.
Staring at Xiao Wan'er's back, Gu Liyi shook his head: "I don't know how to tell Xiao Wan'er next time." I don't know when Sister Xiu woke up, it's already the third day....."
"I've .... Have you slept for two days? When the extremely light female voice sounded from behind her, it almost knocked over the basin in Gu Liyi's hand in fright.
Gu Liyi looked back, and was pleasantly surprised: "Sister embroidery!" Are you awake?! β
The girl in the white middle coat didn't know when she woke up and sat up quietly. She raised her head and quietly looked at the slightly fluttering bamboo leaves outside the window, looking a little quiet. The dark eyes hid a little faint thoughts, and the soft long hair was quietly draped behind the girl, and the sideburns shook slightly, gently brushing her eyes.
Gu Liyi quickly put down the basin in his hand, then quickly walked over and sat down next to the bed, stretched out his hand to take Gu Mingxiu's hand, and asked nervously: "Sister Xiu, where are you uncomfortable?" Do you think... What do you feel uncomfortable about or not being able to see clearly? β
"I'm fine." Gu Mingxiu looked back at her and shook her head quietly, "Is there a situation over there in Yangzhou?" β
"Ah......" Gu Liyi was stunned, looked at her a little wordlessly for a long time, shook his head and said, "King Xiao said that you will definitely ask when you wake up.... He was right. Don't worry, Sister Xiu, everything is fine in Yangzhou, there is nothing abnormal, you don't have to worry, King Xiao said before leaving that you can detoxify with peace of mind, and when the time comesββ"
"Shen Huai left?" Gu Mingxiu cut off her words and spoke casually.
Nodding, Gu Liyi looked a little relieved: "Yes, the first day you were in a coma, I don't know what news came from, Luo Feng looked in a hurry, and after discussing with King Xiao in the house for an afternoon, he left Banxia behind, and he took the others away, as if he was a little anxious...... But it has nothing to do with us, Sister Xiu, don't think about it, the most important thing for you now is to take care of your illness and concentrate on the remaining few medicines...... It's good to get through the test pills. β
"Hmm....." Gu Liyi replied softly, turned his head and looked out the window again.
I don't know if it's the reason for some of the detoxification, but the original pale face of the girl in white has regained some blood color, and her lips are faintly pink even if she doesn't wear makeup. She blinked, her eyes calm and peaceful, not as tired as they had been in the past.
Gu Liyi held Gu Mingxiu's hand, and could also feel that her palm was a little warm, unlike in the past, when she passed out and woke up, her hands were cold and cold, without the slightest temperature.
Gu Liyi hesitated for a moment, and looked at Gu Mingxiu tentatively: "Sister embroidery..... His Royal Highness King Xiao took so much trouble to find a miracle doctor for you, and brought you here to treat your illness, what the hell .....is it" Facing Gu Mingxiu's slashed gaze, she stopped talking in time and smiled slightly, "..... For the sake of my grandfather's loyalty, right? Since he has been so good to you, it is really good that His Majesty must have never doubted his grandfather's loyalty. β
Gu Mingxiu saw her smile, and also laughed lightly: "Yes....."
"Sister Xiu, you sleep for a while, I'll wake you up for medicine in a while." Gu Liyi picked up the basin of water, said softly, and walked out quickly.
She pursed her lips, and there was a bit of complexity in her eyes.
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
