Chapter 76: Loss of appetite
After sleeping until the evening, Gu Qingyi woke up and found herself lying on the bed, covered with two thick dark gold moire brocades, no wonder she felt chest tightness and shortness of breath in her sleep, although it was still a little cold in April, but covered with such a thick quilt, even if she didn't cover the prickly heat, she was covered in hot sweat.
Lifted the quilt and sat up, and without finding her embroidered shoes under the bed, she walked out barefoot, lifted the tulle curtain, passed through the hollow and carved moon door, and saw the scenery outside.
The layout of the room is very large, but there are not many furnishings, two white porcelain vases with thin necks are placed on both sides of the sandalwood moon door, and a yellow rosewood round table is placed in the middle of ten steps away, and a cylindrical white gauze lamp is placed on it, which is exuding a dim yellow light. To the west of the round table is a bath cut by a pine and bamboo screen, and to the south is a mahogany openwork patterned male door, which is now tightly closed, and the dark curtain obscures the upper window lattice, blocking the scene of the hall.
As for the east side, it was the window where she slept during the day was soft, and at this time a kang table was set up in the middle, on which were placed a stack of chapter tables and a glass palace lamp, and at one end there was a man kneeling upright, holding a chapter table, and he didn't know what news was written in it, which made him frown tightly, and the deep silhouette of his face was cold and serious, exuding indescribable majesty.
Gu Qingyi looked a little stunned, unconsciously leaning against the door to look at him, her eyes were empty and empty, just like her empty mind at this time, suddenly there was no refuge, so she quietly fell silent in the dull and depressed dusk of the evening.
Bai Muyun, who was reading the chapter table, suddenly felt something, looked up, and saw Gu Qingyi, who had woken up from Haitang Spring, standing against the door, with light sweat on her face, her cheeks flushed, her black pupils were foggy, her slender and graceful figure like wicker was light and slender, her expression was quiet, there was no resentment, no unwillingness, and no cold, the afterglow of the sunset lightly dyed her eyes, with an ambiguous warm color, she looked at him like this, just like a wife looking at her husband.
His heart jumped, and he hurriedly looked away, and suddenly touched her white and delicate feet on the mahogany floor, frowning, "It's cold on the ground, why don't you wear shoes?" ”
Gu Qingyi was suddenly awakened by a low and hoarse male voice, subconsciously curled up her toes, and said in a low voice, "The embroidered shoes are gone." As soon as her eyes moved, she saw embroidered shoes and socks embroidered with red lotus under the soft collapse, and she was just about to walk over when she heard a stop, "Don't move." ”
She was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously stopped her steps. Immediately afterwards, I saw King Qin come down from the soft collapse, walked to the side in a few steps and picked her up, gently put her on the other side of the soft collapse, picked up the socks on the ground and put them on for her, and paused slightly when she saw the iron tooth scar on her right foot, "Why didn't you remove the scar?" ”
Gu Qingyi looked down at King Qin, who was half-kneeling in front of her, and her fingers unconsciously stirred together, "No one can see it left and right, no need." ”
His hands tightened, but he said no more, and after putting on her shoes, he did not continue to look at the watch, and said, "Let's have dinner." ”
Gu Qingyi hadn't eaten much for two days, she was already too hungry and unconscious, but when she heard it, she felt hungry, in order not to be as embarrassed as last time, she held her breath hard, for fear that her stomach would sing about the empty city plan again.
It wasn't until King Qin was about to hug her that she got angry and hurriedly said, "I'll leave by myself." ”
Since he knew that she was pregnant, King Qin regarded her as a porcelain person, and he wanted to hug her at every turn, and it was just before, the hall was all servant slaves, and she didn't want to end up with a pampered name.
King Qin frowned, as if he was unwilling, Gu Qingyi didn't want to argue with him, so he hurriedly walked out of the soft collapse, just opened the door, and walked into the hall.
The hall sits in the north and faces south, and there is a four-character imperial plaque of "brave and good at fighting" in the middle, and the whole wall below is hung with a map of the battlefield soldiers, and a pair of couplets are hung on both sides: the king has a world affair, and won the name before and after his death. The pattern is preceded by a long yellow rosewood case, where the sword of the imperial gift is placed, the sheath is cold light, and the hilt of the sword is engraved with a fly-headed boy: Chixiao Sword. On both sides of the table are flower tables, and two pots of black pine bonsai are placed. Placed next to the case is the square table of the four immortals, and there are two Taishi chairs on the left and right, and this side is the main seat.
On both sides of the hall are the Eight Immortals Table and the Taishi Chair, which are used for hospitality. At this time, it was already dusk, and the hexagonal palace lamps hanging in all four directions were lit, and the gauze paper smeared with ink bloomed with a smooth light. In the middle of the hall was a woolen carpet, and on top of it was a round table larger than the outer room of the East Warm Pavilion, with only two pomps on the side, which seemed to be empty.
The slaves and maids in the room stood with bated breath, and when they saw someone coming out, they all curtsied and saluted, "I've seen the prince, girl." ”
Gu Qingyi finally had the embarrassment of belated, her footsteps stopped in place, she was a girl with an unjustified name, what was it to appear here? Before she could think deeply, King Qin, who was following her, took her hand and sat on the seat and knocked on the table, "Eat." ”
Four handmaidens withdrew, and the remaining four handmaidens had two golden basins of water, two holding long scarves in their hands, and after waiting for the two to clean their hands, the four maids had come up with dinner and placed them lightly on the round table, and in about half an hour, they were piled up on the whole table.
After adding two bowls of rice, the maidservant was about to serve the rice, but was waved away impatiently by King Qin, and looked sideways at Gu Qingyi next to her, "These are the dishes set by Dr. Zhou himself, do you like them?" Seeing that she was silent, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she said, "You can't eat spicy food now." ”
Thinking of what happened to Wuweilou, Gu Qingyi's face turned a little red, it was just a whim that day, but today I didn't want to eat spicy, looking at the sweet and sour carp on the table, I began to talk with relish.
"I see."
After speaking, he looked at him, she was already hungry in her belly, but the master did not move the chopsticks, she was really embarrassed to stretch out her hand, who expected the other party to misunderstand her meaning, hesitated, actually picked up the chopsticks and asked her, "Which one do you like, this king will clip it for you." ”
Gu Qingyi's face stiffened, glanced at the servant girls with low eyebrows and lowered eyebrows on the other side, and quickly shook his head, "No need, I can do it myself." ”
I didn't care about etiquette at this time, I rolled up my sleeves and stretched out my chopsticks to clip a piece of fish, the sweet and sour taste slid through the mouth, the fish was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, fragrant and umamious, she couldn't help but eat a few more pieces, but the fish that was still delicious suddenly became extremely fishy, and the familiar nausea spread from her chest, and her face immediately changed color.
Bai Muyun kept looking at her, and immediately put down his chopsticks and shouted to the maidservant, "Hurry up and get the bowl." ”
The bowl was quickly brought up, Gu Qingyi vomited again and was black, her eyes were black, and she had no strength in her body.
Hungry and hurtful, she couldn't eat anymore after eating a few grains of rice, so she put down her chopsticks, "I'm full, King Qin eats slowly." ”
Bai Muyun furrowed his brows when he heard this, "No, eat a little more." But seeing that she pursed her lips, she looked unwilling, her eyes suddenly sank, and she personally took a piece of meat and handed it to her mouth, "Open your mouth."
Gu Qingyi frowned, her stomach was really uncomfortable, but seeing that King Qin had a rather unrelenting posture, she had to open her mouth to eat, but this scene also suffered the fate of fish and meat, and this time she vomited, she couldn't even sit upright.
"I'm not eating."
Now she couldn't even smell the smell of oil, sitting at the dining table was simply torture, and she hurriedly stood up with the table, and walked back to the Dongnuan Pavilion as if she was running away, climbed into bed and pulled a quilt and lay down, but she couldn't sleep, so she had to look at the plain tent above in a daze.
It wasn't until the curtain sounded softly and the sound of footsteps knocked lightly came that she raised her eyes to look over, but it was the doctor Zhou who had seen in the Peach Blossom Nunnery before who followed King Qin in, and as soon as he came in, he said to Gu Qingyi, "Please also ask the girl to stretch out her hand." ”
Gu Qingyi stretched out his hand, and Dr. Zhou spread a handkerchief on it before he began to diagnose the pulse, and only after a quarter of an hour did he say, "Lord Wang, Miss Gu used to eat more vegetarian food, and she was unstable in pregnancy, so she lost her appetite and vomited." This time the villain was not thoughtful, and in the future, he would first use vegetarian food for Miss Gu, and then slowly eat meat. ”
Bai Muyun's gloomy face eased slightly, and he removed all the dishes from the front, and asked the kitchen to prepare a new table of vegetarian dishes, Gu Qingyi ate it, and sure enough, there were no more adverse reactions.
It's just that she looked at King Qin, who was also eating vegetarian dishes, and finally couldn't help but say, "Lord, I'll have another table to eat." ”
King Qin glanced at her lightly and replied with two words, "No." ”
Gu Qingyi sighed, kept silent, and after finishing the meal, the maidservant came up with a bowl of medicine, "Girl, this is the medicine boiled by Dr. Zhou, so you must drink it after you finish eating." ”
The taste of this medicinal soup is very familiar, Gu Qingyi has been drinking it for many days, what is it if it is not a fetal medicine?
She hesitated with the decoction, but when she raised her eyes, she saw King Qin staring at her directly, her expression seemed to be a little ugly, she was stunned for a moment, and immediately poured the medicinal soup into her stomach, the bitter taste spread in her mouth, and the familiar nausea arose again, and she vomited again holding the bowl.
"Why did you throw up again?"
King Qin's face was already as black as the bottom of a pot, Gu Qingyi looked more and more unpleasant, pushed him away and walked inside, lying on the bed again, sulking with his back to the outside.
She knew that King Qin was suspicious of her.
The footsteps sounded again, and sure enough, I saw King Qin come in with a bowl of fetal medicine again, and said coldly, "Get up and drink the medicine." ”
Gu Qingyi didn't move, and the man's deep voice continued, "This king doesn't want to force you anymore. ”
Hearing his subtext, her face turned blue, and she finally sat up and took the medicine, her lips could touch the edge of the bowl, and she heard him say again, it sounded like a threat, "This bowl vomited, and there are still outside." ”
Gu Qingyi's face suddenly turned blue and white, staring at the fetal pills in her hand as if she was staring at an enemy of life and death, she drank it all with the posture of a strong man, and her lower abdomen rolled again, but looking at the sneer on the corner of King Qin's lips, she immediately endured it, biting her lip and lying down with her back to him.
Even if she is suffocated, she will never vomit again.
