Chapter 55: The Pulse
It was just dawn, and the weather outside was overcast, as if it could rain at any moment.
Lan Zijin's mouth was dry, and as soon as she got up, she saw Dongfang Luoqi sitting at the table, she instinctively looked at her clothes, and there was nothing abnormal, but the hairpin fell next to the pillow.
She picked up the plain hairpin and got out of bed while curling her hair, walked to Dongfang Luoqi's side and patted him on the shoulder, Dongfang Luoqi opened his eyes dimly, looked at her and said, "Wake up!" ”
Lan Zijin looked at the mess and asked, "Hey, what's going on, why are you in my room!" ”
Dongfang Luoqi supported his chin with one hand, yawned, and said: "Besides, yesterday they tried to commit murder again, I told you a long time ago to let you change stores, you sleep like a dead dog, no matter how you bark, you can't wake up, so this king has to guard here." ”
Lan Zijin touched her head, with a puzzled face, it stands to reason that she shouldn't be, she didn't sleep so deeply, could it be that someone poisoned her?
"It's not a good place to stay for long, let's get out of here." Lan Zijin said and began to pack his things.
After cleaning up, he found that Dongfang Luoqi was still sleepy-eyed, so he came over and dragged him up and walked out.
When he walked to the stable, he saw Liumeng sitting on the side of the stable, and Dongfang Luoqi whispered: "This Liumeng refused to leave at the door of my room yesterday, so I sent her to feed the horses." ”
Lan Zijin saw that Liumeng was still asleep, and quietly led Chiye away, and Dongfang Luoqi also led the horse and followed her.
When they arrived on the street, the two rode horses, but because it was not dawn, the street was sparsely populated. At this time, it was raining again.
"Zijin, find a place to shelter from the rain." Dongfang Luo Qi stopped his horse and shouted at Lan Zijin.
"No, if you want to find a place to rest, you need to stay away from here, I'm afraid that they will catch up, so I won't give up." Lan Zijin also stopped his horse and said to Dongfang Luoqi.
"Are you afraid of being discovered by Brother Wang!"
Lan Zijin ignored it and continued to ride her horse forward, indeed, she was now more afraid of being discovered by Dongfang Luoyu, if his people caught up, the trip would be over.
Dongfang Luo Qi also hurriedly rode his horse to follow.
I don't know how long it took to run, but finally the rain stopped, but the weather was still gloomy.
When we came to the next town, it was dusk and the sky showed a faint glow.
"Don't rush today, find a shop to rest." Dongfang Luo Qi sat on the back of the horse and said to Lan Zijin in front of him.
"Okay." Lan Zijin replied, and the speed of the horse slowed down.
Dongfang Luo Qi clamped the horse's belly, and the horse under him walked quickly to Lan Zijin's side, and when he turned his head, he found that Lan Zijin's face was pale at this time, and his expression was in a trance.
"Zijin! Are you alright, do you have a cold? Dongfang Luo Qi said with concern.
Lan Zijin replied weakly: "I'm fine, just rest for a while." ”
The two came to an inn, Dongfang Luoqi asked for an upper room, and then instructed the shopkeeper to find a doctor.
Lan Zijin was lying on the bed, and the doctor next to her was taking her pulse.
"Doctor, how is she?" Dongfang Luo Qi asked with a slight frown.
"Don't worry, let me observe it again." The doctor's expression was solemn, and his eyes were closed to probe her pulse.
"Doctor, if you have anything to say, just say it." Lan Zijin saw that the doctor didn't speak for a long time, so he asked.
"The girl's condition is not serious, but today it is raining and cold, and some time ago, the girl had a small birth injury and was weak, so she could take a few patches of medicine and rest for a few days. It's just that...... Just ......"
"Just what, you mean!" Dongfang Luo Qi was a little annoyed when he saw that the doctor was struggling.
"Don't worry, it may be that the old man is old, and there is some misdiagnosis, and I always feel that this girl's pulse is different from ordinary people."
Dongfang Luo Qi relieved his heart at this time, Lan Zijin is a saint, and it is not surprising that his pulse is different from ordinary people. But Lan Zijin asked, "Dare to ask the doctor, why do you say that?" ”
I only heard the doctor sigh, a little puzzled, and said, "There seem to be two different pulses in the girl's body, arguing and disturbing the pulse. ”
"I know, please ask the doctor to prescribe two pairs of medicines for me to regulate the wind and cold." Lan Zijin was a little weak, and his head was getting more and more dizzy.
"In that case, the old man went to prescribe medicine first."
After the doctor left, Dongfang Luo Qi sat on the edge of the bed, Lan Zijin knew that he was nervous about his body, so he said: "Luo Qi, I'm fine, I still have to continue to rush tomorrow, don't care about what the doctor says, my own body knows it in my heart." ”
"If you want to continue your journey tomorrow, you will definitely not be able to ride a horse anymore, I will buy a carriage, and tomorrow I will drive, you can rest well." Dongfang Luoqi knows Lan Zijin's temperament, she will not give up what she wants to do because she is unwell, and all he can do is give her the greatest support.
Lan Zijin smiled, looked at Dongfang Luoqi and said softly: "That's the best, prepare more food." I'm really a little sleepy, so I went to sleep first, and you didn't rest well yesterday, so I'm sorry for you. When you come back, remember to get some rest. ”
It was the first time for Dongfang Luoqi to hear that Lan Zijin cared so much about him, so he helped her cover the quilt and said, "Don't worry, I'll go back as soon as I go." ”
After Dongfang Luoqi left, Lan Zijin slept very deeply, she dreamed of Heyi, Heyi was still the same radiant appearance before, persuaded her to rest well, and reminded her not to forget what she had promised.
In Nangong Prince's Mansion, Nangong Yu was seriously injured and had just recovered, and he couldn't sleep with the lamp, looking at the folding fan in his hand, he remembered his former wife Lan Zijin. When Lan Zijin married him, he knew that this marriage would be the grave of this woman, but he didn't expect that it would also be his grave.
He remembered that he once took Lan Zijin to the outskirts of Nangong Wangcheng, on Qingshui Lake, Lan Zijin stepped lightly on the water, innocent and beautiful. remembered how she looked when she was bored in the Prince's Mansion and went out dressed as a woman, but was caught by Mu Cheng. I also remembered that that day, her eyes were full of anger, the wind blew her long hair up, and her pupils were glowing with a faint red light.
Nowadays, the trees and flowers in the prince's mansion have been retransplanted, and the prince's mansion in Nangong is still beautiful, with birds singing and flowers. But Lan Zijin will never come back.
He knew that Lan Zijin might hate him, but he didn't expect that Lan Zijin would be so resolute that he would never look back.
Later, he found out that it was the queen mother who sent the killer to assassinate her. And it was instigated by the Northern Underworld.
If today's pattern is unstable and wars are raging, the East and Ximen work together to take the whole country of Beiming into the bag, but now Nangong's vitality is greatly damaged, and he can no longer attack the East, and now all he can do is to send troops to attack Ximen.
