094 A promise
Chen Xi smiled: "My father is more thoughtful than I thought. ”
The imperial physician smiled respectfully: "The emperor is kind to the prince and the princess, and the lower officials dare not slack off. ”
At that moment, the maid moved the brocade stool over and asked Imperial Physician Wang to sit down. Two more lifted a small high table and asked him to put the pulse pillow on his head.
The imperial physician calmed down, first called the pulse on his right hand, and then the left side, but his heart became more and more suspicious. How could such a complicated thing get involved in itself?
Imperial Physician Wang pretended to be calm and relaxed on his face, but his heart was a mess. Originally, the matter could be ended here, and he replied to the emperor that Princess Jin was fine, and she could just prescribe two pairs of medicine to eat. But if this pulse is true, then do you report it or not?
If he wants to report it, the emperor is bound to be a little more angry with the queen, and he is afraid that he will not be able to leave anything good in the Anguo Mansion and the prince. But if you don't report it, if Princess Jin has any mistakes in the future, go back to the source, where can she escape!
He hesitated in his heart, but time did not stop. Du Ming's heart became anxious, could it be that he had some serious illness? She couldn't help but ask, "Doctor, but what's wrong with my pulse?" ”
"No, no," replied the Imperial Physician subconsciously, "your pulse is steady and strong, and it is very good. ”
He made a decision in an instant, after all, his master is the emperor, and if he hides anything, he is a bully, not to mention that the pulse diagnosis of Princess Jin was repeatedly told by the emperor. He is just a mere imperial doctor, what is the emperor's decision, what kind of heart is he messing with here!
After checking the pulse for a while, Chen Xi sent Imperial Physician Wang out and asked, "I don't know what medicine Imperial Physician wants to prescribe?" You prescribed medicine, and I'm going to call someone to grab it right now. ”
Doctor Wang smiled and said, "No need, the prince needs to know that the medicine is poisonous." Since the princess is fine, there is no need to take this medicine anymore. Just remember that during these days, it is best for the princess to stay in bed and recuperate, and not to get tired. ”
"Be careful." Chen Xi politely sent Imperial Physician Wang out, and then returned to the inner room.
"What did the Imperial Doctor tell you?" Du Mingxin stared at him and asked.
"Say you're fine, you don't need to take medicine, but remember to rest more and don't get tired." Chen Xi sat beside her, took away the pillow behind her, and helped her lie down. "You've been tossing all day today, so let's sleep for a while, and I'll wake you up at dinner."
Du Mingxin tugged his hand and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
"I'll go to the study and explain something." Chen Xi said with a smile.
"When are you ...... Go back to the camp? Du Mingxin asked with some reluctance.
"Tomorrow morning." Chen Xi felt that his mouth was a little dry, but what he had to say was always to be said, "The army will go out in five days." ”
Du Mingxin suddenly felt that her eyes were hot and moist, and she blinked her eyes a few times, not wanting Chen Xi to worry about herself. "Go ahead, go and come back quickly. When I get up to sleep, let's eat together. ”
"Okay." Chen Xi replied softly, gently closed the door for her and went out.

On the second day, Chen Xi got up on the fifth watch, and Du Mingxin wanted to send him off but was pressed back into the bed: "Since the imperial doctor said that you should recuperate well, you will give me a serious rest." Before I leave, we always have to see each other again, don't worry. ”
Du Mingxin nodded, Chen Xi gently dropped a kiss between her foreheads, and strode away.
Du Ming fell on the bed in a dejected heart, and chewed "Suddenly I saw Mo on the willow color, and the penitent husband was looking for a marquis" upside down countless times.
After a few days, Chen Xi did not come back, Du Mingxin became more and more lazy, he wanted to sleep after eating, and he couldn't do anything to lift his spirits.
In the evening of this day, a little eunuch suddenly came from the palace and gave Du Mingxin a brand new set of palace guards' clothes.
"The slave is waiting in the Qianqing Palace, and he came to give you a set of clothes at the behest of the emperor." The little eunuch said respectfully, "The emperor said that tomorrow the army will march south, and the swearing-in ceremony will be held at Zhengyangmen. Please put on this dress and go to Zhengyangmen before tomorrow. When the time comes, the Maharaja will take you to the emperor's side. ”
Du Mingxin took the clothes with both hands, ordered Xia Ye to take the little eunuch out for tea, and rewarded him with twenty taels of silver, which made the little eunuch dance happily.
Du Mingxin sat in the room, holding the suit of clothes tightly in his arms, and tears rolled down his face. Chen Xi is always like this to her, she does what she says, and she makes a promise. Since he said that he would meet again before the expedition, he tried his best to fulfill his promise......
Early the next morning, Du Mingxin got up and sat in front of the makeup mirror and hesitated for a long time. The oath-taking meeting is a national ceremony, and the emperor can let her pretend to be a guard, which is already a great grace. How can she dress up too flamboyantly and make people look sideways?
But this farewell, and I don't know when I will be able to meet Chen Xi again, I always have to dress up better......
After thinking about it, Du Mingxin only swept his eyebrows lightly, and secretly hid a small box of rouge in his sleeve, preparing to put the rouge on his lips when he saw Chen Xi.
She dressed up as a guard and went out of the palace in a sedan chair to Zhengyangmen. In the distance, the prince saw a sedan chair parked there, guessed that it was her, and hurriedly ran over.
"What a grievance to the princess!" Wang Gonggong saw that Du Mingxin was dressed as a guard, and he lost the appearance of the female Jiao'e in the past, but added a little more heroism.
Du Ming smiled embarrassedly: "I'm really a little cheeky, I have to rely on it to send the prince ......"
"Where are you?" The prince said with a smile, "When the prince pleaded with the emperor, even the emperor praised you for your deep love with the prince, and the love is stronger than gold." ”
Du Ming's heart blushed, she and Chen Xi's little children's thoughts were so well known, it was really embarrassing to say.
There were about 10,000 elite troops standing quietly in front of Zhengyang Gate, and the rest were in the camp outside the city, waiting for the order to send troops.
The closer he got, the more shocked Du Ming's heart became. No wonder Chen Yuantai was able to sit on the throne of the emperor in just a few years, and these 10,000 people stood in front of Zhengyang Gate, which turned out to be silent and audible. Military discipline is like this, presumably Chen Xi's trip must also be smooth.
When she arrived at the city tower, the princess did not directly lead her to the highest floor, but stopped at an arrow tower on the second floor, and said with a smile: "Princess, please come in." ”
Du Ming was suspicious, and when he pushed the door open, he saw Chen Xi in military uniform standing inside, looking at her and smiling.
Du Mingxin stepped forward quickly, and the prince quietly closed the door.
Chen Xi stretched out his arms, firmly held Du Mingxin in his arms, and chuckled: "Have I ever broken my promise?" ”
"I haven't ......" Du Mingxin hugged him and sniffed his breath greedily. Then you must promise me that you will come back safely. ”
"Definitely."
