240. Tiger cubs will hunt for food
He was the one who made the decision at the beginning, and I let it go without blocking his fait accompli, but now he wants to change his original intention and reshuffle the cards, and even ask for my opinion on the surface, but in fact he has been arbitrary again.
I was really angry, I didn't even want to say anything more and just struggled hard, but the more I struggled, the tighter he cried, and then I didn't break free of him but was out of breath. The point is that the movement was too loud to wake up Xiao Yuan'er beside him, and he turned over, kicked the two of us with his little foot, and then got up with a hum.
After a while, no one tried to coax him, and he began to cry as soon as his mouth opened. I glared at Ah Ping angrily: "If you don't let go of me, the children have been woken up." Finally let go of the arm that hugged me, and immediately got up and picked up Xiao Yuan'er and coaxed gently. In the past, this kid slept very soundly at night, and even if he was occasionally woken up by urine, he would pee and put it back on the bed, and soon fell asleep again. But tonight he didn't, there was a big disturbance of his sleep, no one should think about a good posture, the voice was very loud and crying, I carried him down to the ground and walked back and forth, so that there was a sound of footsteps outside the house, Yun Gu asked softly by the door: "Niangniang, why is Your Royal Highness crying like this?" ”
I immediately went to open the door, although I came back for more than half a month to eat and live with Xiao Yuan'er, and the mother and son were extremely close, but in the end I was not with the child for more than half a year, and I may not be able to deal with this kind of emergency.
Yun Gu walked in the door and subconsciously looked inside, but was stunned, obviously not knowing why Ah Ping was in the house. Yuan'er's loud voice and cry pulled back her distraction, and immediately called "Your Highness" to Ah Ping's blessed body, and then came over: "Why are you crying like this?" Is it peeing at night? ”
I shook my head, "I just touched his pants, and he didn't pee, like he's hot." ”
Yun Gu took the child and poked her forehead, and immediately her face changed greatly, "Oh no, Your Highness has a fever." ”
My heart was shocked, and I panicked, and when I just picked him up, I only felt hot, thinking that it was because the quilt was thick, but who expected him to be sick. At this time, Yan Qi also got up when he heard the sound, and was immediately sent to find the imperial doctor.
Yun Gu used a wet towel to wipe Xiao Yuan'er's hands and forehead constantly, but I stood aside helplessly when I first encountered this situation. Speaking of which, I am also a person who has experienced wind and rain, taking care of my frail and sick brother since I was a child, and when Ah Ping was poisoned and injured, I have never been so assertive as at this moment, but it was Yun Gu who came to comfort me and said: "Don't worry, your little highness may be shocked to have a fever at night, and the imperial doctor will be fine when he comes to take a look." ”
Yan Qi invited back a female doctor, who checked Yuan'er's pulse and looked at her mouth and tongue, and then came up with a diagnosis. It is said that there are no symptoms of body cold, so it is not caused by being infected with wind and cold, but probably caused by something during the day and haunted by dreams at night.
So what should be done? It is not a wind chill, and it should not be used as medicine. And I suspect that what was startled during the day was just what they were talking about, and it was probably Ah Ping and I who scared Yuan'er after waking him up in the night.
But I didn't say this, and Ah Ping, who had always been silent, wouldn't say it, and others didn't dare to speculate about the two of us.
The female medical officer said that she would try to open a pair of awakening soup first, and let Yan Qi follow to grab the medicine. But when the awakening soup came back, Xiao Yuan'er refused to drink it because it was too bitter, no matter how he coaxed it, he couldn't help it, so he pursed his mouth and cried so hard that he even cried so much that his throat was hoarse.
"Let me hold him." At this time, Ah Ping stood up and gave a deep order, so Yuan'er changed his arms, and when he arrived at his father, he was still crying, but after a while, he seemed to feel that the atmosphere was not right, so he stopped and looked at his father with a sob.
It can't be said to be harsh, but that aura seemed to deter Xiao Yuan'er, so when Ah Ping brought the medicine bowl to Xiao Yuan'er's mouth, he looked very sad and sad, but he still drank it, and then his little face wrinkled.
Seeing this, I immediately handed the sugar water to Ah Ping's hand, and saw that Xiao Yuan'er also drank it obediently, it was really rare, the person who could control this little demon king was actually his father. After drinking the awakening soup, Yuan'er looked at me with blank eyes, and his eyes were still hanging on his face, meaning that he wanted me to hug him.
I was just about to stretch out my hand, but I was hugged by Ah Ping and walked out, I was stunned at first, and when I reacted, I immediately chased after me and asked, "Where are you going?" Ah Pingdong turned around, "It's not early, if he's here, you won't be able to sleep, I'll take him to the east room to sleep first." ”
"What if his body temperature rises higher overnight? That's it, even if you go to sleep in the East House, I won't be able to sleep. ”
He seemed to hesitate for a moment before turning around, and said with a very reluctant expression, "Okay." ”
When I saw him carrying Yuan'er back to the house again, I suddenly realized that I was in his trap. He deliberately pretended to take Yuan'er away, but in fact he led me to be fooled and retained, so that he could stay in a dignified manner.
After figuring it out, I was so annoyed that I stared at his back, but I was helpless. When Yun Gu and Yan Qi dispersed, there were only three of us left in the house, Yuan'er also stopped sobbing, and was put on the bed by his father to play by himself, he didn't think it was too late, and the crying just now also made him wake up completely, even if he still had a fever, he had the energy to jump around and enjoy himself.
I would feel envious, envious of the speed with which this kid's mood changed, and that he could play happily the next moment after the ghost cried wolf, and I would be happy if I could do the same, why so many troubles.
I didn't talk to Ah Ping, one sat at the head of the bed and the other sat at the end of the bed, occasionally Xiao Yuan'er came to talk and responded, and then touched his forehead as if the heat had really subsided. When it was almost dawn, the boy was finally tired, and he crawled into my arms and leaned against me, and his eyes narrowed.
At this time, Ah Ping spoke: "You can sleep too, I'll stay for a while and leave." ”
I didn't make a sound, I hugged Yuan'er to the bed and lay on my back, closed my eyes but couldn't sleep, until there was a white light in the room behind the movement, but I reached out to caress my hair, at that moment I trembled slightly, maybe this move or he knew that I didn't sleep, so I heard him say: "Lan, I can't let you go too far, because I'm afraid that if you go far, you won't be able to pull it back, so you have to tighten the thread that binds us two." After saying this, I felt that his breath was approaching, and when I reacted, his lips were already printed on my temples, and his very soft voice reached my eardrums: "I can't live without you on the way forward." ”
Later, Ah Ping left, and I listened to his footsteps step by step, until I could no longer hear any movement.
He said that there was a thread between the two of us, and he unconsciously thought of the kite, and I was the kite, and he was the one who flew the kite. As he said, the thread had been dragging at his hand all along, but now the thread was so long that a breeze might hang the kite on the tree and not pull it back, or the next moment, the thread would break.
He has realized it, he has realized this crisis, so he does not hesitate to disrupt the original layout and reshuffle the cards.
I don't know what the follow-up will be to his words, but I have a hunch that this is not over. Sure enough, a few days later, he came again, but not at night, but during the day with Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang's current body can no longer drink alcohol, so he can only serve him tea. But after drinking a cup of tea, Ah Ping actually left, leaving Zhu Yuanzhang alone in Orchid Garden, and I couldn't figure out this routine for a while. However, it will not be too embarrassing to deal with this old emperor, no matter how majestic he is in front of him, he is an ordinary old man after coming to Lanyuan.
moved the recliner to the yard for Zhu Yuanzhang to lie down, and then brought a blanket to cover his legs. pointed to the seat next to me and asked me to sit down, and after dispersing the two of us, Zhu Yuanzhang slowly spoke: "Alan, I believe you should understand Ping'er's hardship." I smiled and asked instead of answering, "Grandfather Huang, are you here to be a lobbyist today?" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang turned his eyes to look over, and after fixing his gaze for a moment, he also smiled, "I'm afraid that in the Ming Dynasty, except for Xiuying, you are the only one who dares to speak to me like this." When I was acting alone, it was also Xiuying who unceremoniously scolded me, so that I could think about it again. But I'm not here to be a lobbyist today, I'm just looking at the unproductive kid and depressed. ”
But I don't say anything, in fact, I love Sun very clearly, even if I am not a lobbyist, I must speak for Ah Ping, so I won't expose it. After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly whispered: "I can't do it." ”
I was stunned in the moment, and subconsciously replied, "Impossible." ”
But I heard Zhu Yuanzhang say in a very light tone: "I'm old, the time to hold on to this day is limited, Ping'er is still too immature to shake the group of old foxes in the court and the field, if I am here, there will be nothing wrong, if I am not there, I am afraid that it will be ......."
He didn't go on, but he explained the seriousness of the situation. However, Ah Ping has analyzed and listened to me before, so he is not unfamiliar, and it is precisely because of these reasons that the current situation has become the present.
I thought for a moment and said: "The tiger protects the calf, after all, it is necessary to let the tiger cub go out to hunt by himself, and if the protection is too much, the tiger cub will lose the instinct of tiger hunting, and it is necessary to believe that the tiger father has no dog." ”
This analogy may not be very appropriate, he and Ah Ping are grandchildren, but the principle is the same. Moreover, I was actually hesitating at this time, should I remind him of the other tiger? Because I think Zhu Di is actually more suitable for this metaphor, he is the real tiger father without a dog! If Ah Ping is personally taught by Zhu Yuanzhang, then Zhu Di is the person who is most like Zhu Yuanzhang, and he can be said to be proficient in martial arts and tactics.
If I tell Zhu Yuanzhang to guard against Zhu Di, what will be the consequences?
