Chapter 427: Wake Up
When Xiaoman woke up again, she only felt a sore body, and the pain in her throat was even worse, she frowned, and tried to call out for pearls.
But soon, it was not the pearl that appeared in her sight, but Lu Li.
Xiao Man was a little dazed, she blinked, and after making sure that she was not dreaming, she said, "Why did you come back?" β
As soon as she opened her mouth, Xiao Man found that her voice was hoarse, and she had exhaustion and vicissitudes that could not be ignored, which made her feel a lot more energetic in an instant.
"Are you okay?" Lu Li looked worried, and did not answer Xiaoman's previous question at all.
She frowned, pulled out a hand from the quilt, and the other party immediately pulled her hand and held it in the palm of her hand, and then looked at her with a worried face, and said anxiously: "Xiaoman, are you okay?" Do you remember me? β
"I-"
Xiao Man was about to speak, when he heard Lu Li yelling to his side: "Go and call the doctor!" β
She shook her head hurriedly and continued to explain in that hoarse voice: "I'm fine, Lu Li, don't worry, I'm really fine." β
"How can I not be worried!" Lu Li finally started talking to her, the man frowned, full of nervousness: "As soon as I heard about you fainting, I hurried back, you-"
Halfway through the words, Lu Li suddenly closed his mouth and did not continue to speak, but sighed and held Xiaoman's hand tighter.
Xiao Man noticed that Lu Li's eyes were full of red bloodshots, blue stubble appeared on his chin, his hair was a little messy, and the neckline of his clothes was a little dirty.
"Lu Li, don't worry, I'm really fine." Xiao Man raised the corners of his lips and smiled easily, so that the other party could rest assured.
"Let's wait until the doctor sees it." Lu Li's face was solemn, and he didn't relax at all because of her smile.
While he was talking, the doctor came in.
Lu Li stepped aside, holding Wangshu's hand, the master and the son looked nervously in the direction of the bed, their eyes fell on the doctor who diagnosed the pulse for a while, and on Xiaoman's wrist for a while, with the same nervous expression.
The room was silent for a quarter of an hour before it fell silent when the doctor's hand lifted his pulse.
"Doctor, how is she? You okay? Lu Li hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
The doctor smiled slightly, and said while opening the medicine box: "Please also rest assured that the county lord is very healthy, and his body has recovered well, no problem." β
"But she suddenly vomited a lot of blood and fainted! It's been so long that she hasn't woken up until now, is she really okay? Lu Li kept asking.
"You can rest assured, the county lord vomited blood and fainted before, because he was angry and bloody, and his emotions were too excited, but now that he has woken up, there is no big problem."
The doctor said so, and seeing that Xiaoman's complexion was indeed gradually recovering, she was already able to get up on her own after just a while.
Lu Li nodded, "Okay then, I'm sorry for you." β
Lu Li personally went out to see off the doctor, while Wangshu pursed his lips and walked to the edge of Xiao Man's bed, staring at Xiao Man's face for a long time, so that Xiao Man was a little uncomfortable.
She couldn't help asking, "Wangshu, what are you looking at me like this?" β
Seeing Xiao Man open his mouth, Wang Shu was obviously relieved, he took the initiative to touch Xiao Man's hand, as if he was complaining and afraid, and said, "Mother scared us before." β
Hearing this, Xiaoman gently touched the child's face, trying her best to suppress her voice softer, she said: "It's because my mother is not good, I am scared of Wangshu, and my mother will not be in the future." β
Even she herself didn't expect that Wang's death would give her such a big shock that she vomited blood and fainted.
"Xiaoman."
Lu Li's voice sounded, Xiao Man turned her face away, and watched the tall man walk in from outside the door, she couldn't help but raise a smile, and asked again, "How do you know about this?" I shouldn't have fainted for long, right? β
The man and Wangshu sat on the edge of the bed together, and said with a serious face: "I fainted for a whole afternoon, you say, is this a long time?" β
Xiaoman stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to speak.
"This bandit is really getting more and more rampant!" Lu Li said in a deep voice: "It seems that I have to enter the palace tomorrow to find the king, so that he can do it as soon as possible and wipe out this group of bold things!" β
"That's right!" Wang Shu also echoed with a calm little face, he said: "These people dare to break into the mansion during the day, and dare to kill people, I think they are really too bold!" β
Saying that, Wang Shu turned his head to look at Xiao Man, and said solemnly: "Mother, I think this Bei'an City is really too dangerous!" I knew we might as well not be here. β
Speaking of this matter, Lu Li also opened his mouth, "Wangshu is right, if the king is unwilling to exterminate these bandits, and the person who is in command of all this behind the scenes, then I will directly ask the king to resign!" β
The more the two talked, the more excited they became, and they had the posture that they were going to leave the vicissitudes with the whole house tonight.
Fortunately, Xiaoman stopped the two, and she persuaded: "Anyway, the king didn't do it for a long time, and he also wanted Li Lin to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, and he didn't expect that the bandits would be so bold as to break into the county lord's mansion during the day, and dare to kill people in the mansion." β
Speaking of which, the king of Canglan has always been quite good to them, giving the county lord the position and giving him such a good residence, and he has always been responsive to the county lord's mansion and has repeatedly helped.
However, there have always been people who have been against the king, so they have embarrassed the Xiaoman family everywhere, and want to use this to hinder the king's plan.
"That's always going to hurt us." Wangshu was indignant: "Obviously, the king is in danger of falling into us, but-"
"Shh Lu Li hurriedly covered Wangshu's mouth and warned in a low voice: "You can't talk nonsense about these words, otherwise we won't be able to leave here." β
Warnings are warnings, but Lu Li can understand Wangshu. After all, if it weren't for Xiaoman's situation today, Wangshu, who has always been calm and silent, would not have said such a thing.
But looking back, Wangshu, a four-year-old child, still knew this, how could he and Xiaoman not know?
Thinking of this, Lu Li couldn't help but sigh, and then let go of the palm that was covering Wangshu's mouth.
The room fell silent without warning.
I don't know how long it took, Xiao Man said softly: "Lu Li, I shouldn't leave until the thing is done, what about you?" β
"Neither will I." Lu Li replied quickly, as if he had already guessed that Xiao Man would ask such a question.
Xiaoman hugged her knees with both hands, rested her chin on her knees, tilted her head slightly to look at the man on the side, after noticing the other party looking over, she laughed, and two good-looking dimples appeared on her cheeks, although she didn't speak, but she gave Lu Li great courage and confidence for no reason.
Lu Li hugged Wangshu in his arms tightly and said, "No matter what, I will protect the safety of the two of you, strive to return to Donglan as soon as possible, and continue our days of sightseeing." β
"I will also protect my mother." Wangshu said unwillingly.
Looking at the confident appearance of the two men, one big and one small, Xiao Man laughed again, she nodded lightly, "Okay, we have to finish everything here as soon as possible, so that we can go back as soon as possible and spend the days of sightseeing as soon as possible." β
After this incident, Xiao Man figured out a truth, no matter how fun and exciting it is outside, it is far less than at home.
However, Rao is no longer satisfied with the current environment, she has to complete what she promised to others, and she must not give up halfway!
As the doctor said, Xiao Man's previous vomiting of blood and fainting were just violent emotional fluctuations, so it led to this situation, and after a night of repair, Xiao Man's body has recovered as before.
Lu Li, as he said last night, went directly to the palace early the next morning.
Xu was too anxious this time, Lu Li waited for a short time in the Wenfeng Palace, and then felt anxious, and walked around the door of the hall, occasionally stopping to look inside the door, looking like he wanted to rush in directly.
"Grandpa Guo, you can come inβhey, Grandpa Guo, you're going too fast!"
The eunuch who finally waited for the summons, and before the other party could finish speaking, Lu Li strode in, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
When Lu Li walked into the hall and met the king, he suddenly found that there was still a person standing in the hall.
This person is still young, and his stature is a little insufficient, only as far as Lu Li's shoulders, but from his bearing, accessories, and the clothes he wears, plus his face similar to the king, it can be seen that this person should be a royal child.
"Chu Yu, this is Donglan's Zhenguo Gong, that is, the husband of the county lord, you should have seen it." As he spoke, the king fell on Lu Li's body again, and introduced with a smile: "This is my youngest brother next to you, who has just reached adulthood and has not yet been given a title. β
The two of them looked at each other and smiled thoughtfully, then turned around and did not speak again.
Lu Li came this time to discuss the matter of the bandits with the king, but he didn't want to, and before he could speak, the king took the initiative to mention it, and said that he would let Chu Yu be in charge of this operation.
After speaking, Wang Shang leaned over slightly and asked, "Zhen Guogong, what do you think of my arrangement?" β
"Your Majesty, I don't think that's right." Lu Li bluntly retorted, "This prince has just come of age, he is not surprised, and I can see that his martial arts are not high, and against those bandits, I'm afraid... Not quite right. β
When he said "not very suitable", Lu Li obviously paused before changing such a word, but even if it was such a word, Chu Yu was very dissatisfied after hearing it.
Therefore, before the king could speak, he took the initiative to step forward and asked: "Brother Wang, my martial arts skills are not as superb as Zhenguo Gong, but it is more than enough to deal with a few little thieves!" What's more, I don't need to be in person to deal with the bandits, I just need to set up a plan to catch the bandits! Therefore, Brother Wang thinks that he is competent enough! β
