Chapter Eighty-Four

The five horses are really very sick, Xiao Dong heard Zhao Lu also mention it once, and invited several imperial doctors to be helpless.

Shen Jing's fingers tapped lightly on the table a few times. Xiao Dong looked at him, Shen Jing rarely showed emotions when he was a teenager, but now that he is getting older, he seems more stable and deep, Xiao Dong doesn't know whether he is happy or angry in his heart.

Ordinarily...... The five horses are his rivals, and the five horses are sick, and Shen Jing should be happy.

However, if Shen Jing cares about the fifth princess and hopes that she will live well, then she can't just hope that the five princesses will be seriously ill and die, otherwise the five princesses will have to be widows. Even if you are a princess, the days of widowhood are just as difficult. The fifth princess is still so young - there are still decades ahead, how can she suffer?

There is no precedent for a princess to remarry after losing her husband in this dynasty. Xiaodong only heard the Empress Dowager Shengci say once that there was a princess who died unexpectedly before she got married, so she chose another husband after two years, which is different from remarrying.

Shen Jing didn't stay long before leaving, and Xiao Dong didn't keep him longer.

Xiao Dong couldn't have imagined that she was so popular here today, and sent away the six princesses, and Shen Jing came. Shen Jing said goodbye here, but the fifth princess came to the door. She wore a dark purple palace dress and a gauze hat, and the wind blew the veil curtain, revealing a delicate chin and a beautiful neck.

When the sixth princess left just now, she hadn't met Shen Jing in person. But this time, when the fifth princess came, she walked face to face with Shen Jing.

Shen Jing was surprised, and the fifth princess also looked at a loss for a moment. Xiao Dong couldn't restrain his curiosity, his eyes took turns on the faces of the two people, and Shen Jing's gaffe was only for a moment, and he immediately came back to his senses and saluted: "I've seen the princess." ”

"Shen Bulang doesn't need to be polite," the fifth princess's voice sounded slightly tight, she paused for a moment, and then continued: "I'm here to discuss something with Sister Xiaodong......

She didn't have to explain to anyone when she came to Xiaodong, she deliberately said this, as if she wanted to make a confession.

Xiao Dong blinked, Xiao Dong couldn't remember Shen Jing's new official position very clearly, but the fifth princess called out - well, the fifth princess really cares about current affairs.

But you can't just let them stand in front of the door and talk.

Xiao Dong had to come out to make this stick for beating mandarin ducks. After all, the fifth princess is already married, and even if nothing substantive happens between her and Shen Jing, as long as others catch the wind and catch a few words of gossip...... In this place in the capital, the peachy rhyme has always spread quickly, or the city will be full of wind and rain in two days.

"Fifth sister, are you coming to me for the first time? The day before yesterday, the four sisters and six sisters all came, but you didn't come. I'd like to invite you to enjoy the flowers and tea. Cousin, I have a guest, so I won't send you away, and I have time to come and sit. ”

The fifth princess nodded and walked with Xiao Dongchao.

"I didn't say hello, I came to the door out of nowhere." The fifth princess apologized first: "There is really one thing to trouble Sister Xiaodong." ”

"Fifth sister, please say something, if you can help, of course I won't refuse."

The fifth princess whispered, "It's for the sick ...... of the donkey."

Xiao Dong was a little puzzled, the five horses were seriously ill, whether the five princesses went to seek medical advice or medicine, or to ask God and worship Buddha, what must they ask to come to her?

"But there is a lack of medicinal herbs? I still have a few branches of ginseng here, and my father gave me four Bodhi fruits when I got married. ”

The fifth princess shook her head: "It's not a medicinal herb." There is no shortage of medicinal materials in the Lin Township Houfu - even if there is a shortage, there are no medicinal materials in the palace that cannot be found. ”

What's that for?

The fifth princess said: "I heard that there is a famous doctor in Suizhou, who is well-known, and I would like to invite him to see a doctor." But Suizhou is far away, and I'm not familiar with it at all......"

Xiao Dong suddenly said, because Qin Lie is from Suizhou, so the fifth princess came to inquire about her, right?

She doesn't know either, and Qin Lie is not at home, but it doesn't matter, the Qin family is at home, if there is really such a famous doctor, the Qin family should know.

"Well, I don't know about the situation in Suizhou, but my mother-in-law happens to be there, and she may know."

The fifth princess perked up: "That tired little sister took me to meet Mrs. Qin, I, I came in a hurry, empty-handed......"

Xiao Dong hurriedly said: "Fifth sister, don't worry, my mother-in-law is straightforward and warm-hearted, if there is such a famous doctor, she should know." ”

Qin's young beauty really surprised the fifth princess, she wanted to do the gift of the juniors, the Qin family was busy with people, Xiaodong also persuaded, the fifth princess still respectfully greeted the salute, said a few words, and said what she would like to do.

Qin Shi thought for a while: "I have always lived in Dongquan, and the area of Suizhou is very large, and that famous doctor ...... It should be surnamed Hong, right? ”

The fifth princess was full of joy: "Exactly, it is surnamed Hong." Madame knows about this person? Is his medical skills really good? ”

"I haven't seen it, but I've heard that it has cured a lot of incurable diseases, and I don't know if he can cure the diseases of the five horses. However, from here to Suizhou, it takes a lot of time to go back and forth, but I am afraid that the distant water will not quench the thirst of the near. ”

Xiao Dong thought the same way. Since the five horses are already so sick, can they still support the Hong Langzhong who was invited from Suizhou?

The fifth princess obviously can't take care of so much, there is a glimmer of hope, even if it is far away, she will firmly grasp it.

"Well, in this case, I can only write a letter back and ask someone to send this Hong Langzhong to the capital - but I don't know if people are willing to travel thousands of miles, and second, ...... I'm afraid that it will take a lot of time on the road, even if you take the waterway, I am afraid that it will take nearly a month. Three to ......"

The Qin clan didn't say it explicitly, but the fifth princess should also understand that even if it was a miracle doctor, it could cure the disease and not cure her life. Five horses if ...... What kind of terminal illness is it, then you can't blame the doctor for not being effective.

The fifth princess nodded heavily: "I also understand what Madam said." Please help me with this, no matter what...... Whether it succeeds or fails, I can't thank you enough. ”

Qin Lie was not at home, Qin's dictation, Xiao Dong wrote the letter for her, the fifth princess said the illness of the five horses, Xiao Dong also wrote it down, sealed the letter, and Qin ordered someone to send the letter back to Suizhou immediately. The fifth princess's eyes were red, and she thanked the Qin family and Xiaodong again, and was about to leave.

Xiao Dong stayed, and the fifth princess just shook her head: "The center of the horse disease is uncertain, and I can't leave people for a while, if I wake up and can't see me, I'm afraid that I won't be able to drink the medicine." I'd better hurry back. If there is any news here, Sister Xiaodong must send someone to tell me......"

"Fifth sister, don't worry, if you get the letter, I will definitely send someone to tell you immediately."

The fifth princess left, and this time there were no more guests. Xiao Dong breathed a long sigh of relief, changed his clothes, and accompanied the Qin family to gossip over tea.

"This fifth princess is the daughter of Concubine Ming?"

"Well, she used to have sores, so she had some marks on her face, and it wouldn't be in the way if you didn't look closely."

"So young......"

Xiao Dong understood the meaning of Qin's words.

If the five horses are really not good, the five princesses ...... It's a shame.

Qin Lie came back in the evening, and together with Xiao Dong, he had dinner with the Qin family. The Qin family didn't pay attention to what to eat, didn't say anything, and said what happened during the day at the dinner table.

Qin Lie nodded and said: "The five horses are indeed not lightly ill, it is said that they have coughed up blood, the symptoms are very dangerous, good people, they can't get out of bed in a few days." However, although that Hong Langzhong is a little famous, can he cure the disease of the five horses? ”

"Who can say for sure, but do your best and let it be the fate of heaven."

Xiao Dong was a little sullen at night, Qin Lie said two jokes, and he didn't see her smiling.

Looking at the candlelight at the bedside through the tent, it was a little gloomy. Xiao Dong took the tea handed by Qin Lie, and said with a little luck: "The sixth princess still came to the door today, I don't know if she came to quarrel or wanted to fight, fortunately Jinfeng is not at home, otherwise the sixth princess is really rude, it will be troublesome enough." In fact, Jinfeng and Luo Wei don't have anything, her dry vinegar is unreasonable. ”

Qin Lie smiled, revealing his snow-white and neat teeth. It is said that this person's skin is dark, and his teeth are white.

"The sixth princess is just making a small fuss, don't take it to heart. Anyway, Jinfeng and they are about to leave the capital. ”

"Hmm."

Xiao Dong drank half a cup of tea, and Qin Lie took the other half cup and drank it, and the two of them blew the lamp and lay down. Xiao Dong thought about the expression on his face when Shen Jing and the fifth princess met today, and always felt that something was pressed on his chest, a little heavy.

She didn't know how much pain the fifth princess and Shen Jing had in their hearts, but there was an insurmountable gap between the two. In these years, how many couples can finally get married?

As far as she knew, it seemed to ...... Except for herself being so happy, there is no one else.

Most people have never seen what the other half looks like before they get married, tall, short, fat, thin, black, white, handsome, and ugly are all relayed by others. When you worship heaven and earth and enter the cave room, you will have to live the rest of your life together.

Qin Lie heard that she wasn't asleep, and asked softly, "What are you thinking?" ”

"Miss us." Xiao Dong said, "We are much luckier than others. ”

Qin Lie's hand reached over, and Xiao Dong buried his head in his arms.

She couldn't imagine herself lying on the same bed with a completely strange person, her ears grinding and her skin to skin. The man's hand was holding her, caressing her...... Just thinking about it, Xiao Dong felt that his whole body was cold and his hair stood on end.

Not to mention, you have to tolerate that person still sleeping with the concubine, with the girl in the room, and even with the woman in the fence outside......

I shudder to think about that kind of life.

Fortunately, she married Qin Lie.

He and she have known each other for a long time, know each other, and have feelings for each other.

He has no other women, no concubines, no girls, no idle flowers and weeds outside. Xiao Dong doesn't have to worry about tasting the rouge of other women on his lips, and he doesn't have to worry about one day, there will be other women with big bellies and his children to show off in front of her-

Qin Lie's lips were next to her earlobe, the hot breath blew Xiao Dong's whole body soft, holding the gauze quilt in his hand, he felt his lips gradually move down, past her neck, Qin Lie supported her waist with one hand, bit the tie on her belly pocket, and gently pulled it, and the knot was loosened.
