Chapter 166: No regrets in the end when the belt is widening (1)
At the beginning of February, everything recovered and spring blossomed, and Chuxiu seemed to have ended a hibernation and woke up leisurely. When I opened my eyes, I felt that I had a big dream, and the past was like a world away.
"Madame! You're finally awake! "Danxin, Qianyun, and Yueyun are all guarding in front of the couch, and Qianyun is the first to see Chuxiu open her eyes, Rao is usually cold, and she can't help but be surprised. Yuewan burst into tears and cried with joy: "I'll go and ask my father-in-law to come in." ”
Izuxiu's consciousness was still not very clear, and his mind was groggy and hazy. She forced herself to get up, but she insisted on pressing her down with a light heart and a light rhyme.
"How long did I sleep?" Izumi asked in a daze, he hadn't spoken for a long time, and his sweet voice was a little hoarse.
"Two and a half months." I choked up for a while: "Your illness is menacing, and you almost ......"
It turned out that I slept for two and a half months. Izuku slowly raised her hands and clearly saw what "skinny as firewood" was, she was a little afraid to look in the mirror, just afraid that she would see a ghost. The new skin on the palm of the palm is pale, and if you don't look closely, you won't be able to find those fine scars.
After reacting for a while, she remembered the day she fainted, she fell on top of the broken tea cup, embedded with broken porcelain pieces full of hands and knees. It can be seen that someone has carefully removed her and put on the injury medicine.
Just thinking about it, Yueyun had already led the divine doctor Qu Fang and the other three famous doctors into the house. At this time, I didn't care about any men and women, so I removed the screen together with Qianyun and Danxin, so that the space in the room was larger.
The wind swept over the faces of several famous doctors, and only then did he understand how laborious his condition was. She wanted to get up and say a few polite words, but she only moved, but she was panicked by the bed. Izuku can almost imagine how thin and haggard she is now, but who can blame her?
Except for Qu Fang, the other famous doctors were all brought by Nie Peixiao, and they have been eating and living in Yunfu recently. Several famous doctors in the world successively diagnosed the pulse of Chuxiu, and they were surprised again and again: "Madame has finally survived the difficulties!" How many good medicines have been used, fortunately, it has not been in vain. ”
Izumi smiled and thanked him, thought about it, coughed lightly and asked: "The concubine vaguely remembers that during the couch, someone has been talking in the concubine's ear, although she can't hear what she said, but she pulls the concubine's mind so that it doesn't run out." This trick is still useful, and I don't know which miracle doctor came up with the idea? ”
When the question was asked, no one in the house responded. Lighthearted, shallow, and Yueyun all seemed to be dumb, silent.
Out of Xiu didn't know why, raised his eyes to look at Qu Fang, the latter frowned, and after thinking for a long time, he replied: "It's King Cheng." ”
"King Cheng?" Izuku unconsciously asked rhetorically, and he couldn't react to this title for a while.
Seeing this, he hurriedly explained: "During your illness, the regent has ascended the throne in Jingzhou and called the emperor, changed the yuan to "Heavenly Grant", and also named the original King of Chengjun as 'Prince Cheng', and gave him a feud in Fangzhou. ”
It turned out that it was the first year of heaven, and he was really too sick. Izuku smiled and sighed, "What day is it now?" ”
"The fourth day of February." Light rhyme, light heart in unison.
"I've been sick for so long." Izuku smiled weakly, and turned to Qu Fang and the others at the right time to thank them: "There are a few miracle doctors." ”
Qu Fang and Izuku were already very familiar with each other, so he waved his hand and didn't make much politeness. On the contrary, one of the other three smiled and said, "Madam, you are welcome, Xia Guan and the others are here on the orders of His Royal Highness King Cheng." ”
calls himself a "lower official", that is the imperial doctor with an official position. Chuxiu shook his head, and he couldn't remember Nie Peixiao's appearance, and there was only a hazy purple figure left in his impression, and he only vaguely remembered that he was very handsome and noble.
"Please thank His Royal Highness King Cheng on behalf of the concubine." Izuku replied to the imperial doctor and asked, "I've slept for too long, and my mind is dizzy." I wonder if the concubine can stay and walk? ”
"Let's recuperate for a little longer. Now it's just early spring, and it's windy outside, so it's better for Madame to be careful. Qu Fang instructed him to leave with several imperial doctors to study how to give Xiu medicine.
Since waking up that day, Yunfu has finally regained a trace of vitality. Every day, Mrs. Tai, Yun Cheng, and several divine doctors came in and out, like flowing water, and even the second aunt Taihua Wuying also came a few times, but she didn't see Cheng Wang Nie Peixiao.
He naturally knew that he had woken up, but now that the war in Jiangdi was tight, although Nie Peixiao was far away in Fangzhou, he also remembered it very much. Listening to the report every day, how many people were killed and wounded in the army, he was also irritable for a while.
Even though he knew that Shen Yu was a skilled doctor and protected himself, Nie Peixiao was still worried that he would lose the battle. After all, in a situation like Jiang Di, it is not possible to win by force and strategy, those miasma and poisons...... Every time he thought of it, the old illness on his shoulders was a pain.
The fighting dragged on until the end of February, when there was finally a turnaround. The military newspaper said that the coach Shen Yu was hit by an anonymous poison and almost died, but fortunately he was rescued by a local woman to save his life. After recuperating for more than ten days, Shen Yu is now fine, and he has begun to lead the army to go deeper, and it is expected that the rebellious party will be eliminated in mid-March.
Hearing the news, Nie Peixiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, took the letterhead and wrote: "Quick decision." After thinking about it, he added four more words: "There is no obstacle to going out." ”
The well-bred flying pigeon fluttered its wings to the sky, tied to the military report of King Cheng, and flew to an unknown location......
*****
In the blink of an eye, in the middle of March, Izumi's body finally healed, although her face was still haggard, but she had faintly reappeared in her peerless elegance. And Shen Yu also frequently reported good news in Jiangdi, and the war came to an end.
During this period, Nie Peixiao never went to Yunfu to visit Xiu, firstly, he was concerned about the war, and secondly, he knew that Guixiu was lingering on the sickbed, and he could not see anyone when he went. But from time to time, he would send some tonic herbs over, and the imperial doctor sent to report Xiu's condition to him every day.
On March 20, several imperial doctors invited from Jingzhou returned home, and in order to express their gratitude, they personally set up a banquet in Yunfu to see them off.
After the banquet, several imperial doctors were sent out of Yanlan City, and Nie Peixiao also followed for the first time, which flattered several imperial doctors. It was difficult for Xiu to go out of the house to breathe, and she was not in a hurry to go back, so she walked outside the city, Nie Peixiao accompanied her, and naturally asked her about her current situation: "Are you all right?" ”
"Hmm. It's just that I've been sitting for a long time, and I'm still a little tired. Izumi smiled lightly, a little more tranquil than before: "Thank you very much for Your Highness this time." ”
"I don't want a word of thanks." Nie Peixiao wanted to say something, but after a pause, she sighed again: "That's it, now that your body has not healed, I still won't give you any more trouble." ”
"No, you're my savior." Izuku said softly, she said this sentence sincerely.
Nie Peixiao raised her eyes and said with a smile: "Shouldn't the grace of saving your life be promised by yourself?" ”
Izuku took a pause: "You laughed." ”
Nie Peixiao didn't force Xiu anymore, but only looked at her carefully, and said with great pity: "You have lost a lot of weight, and you are also very haggard." ”
Izumi subconsciously raised her hand and stroked her cheek, laughing at herself and sighing: "It's much better now, you don't know that when I first woke up, I didn't dare to look in the mirror." ”
"Who said that? You've always been the best-looking. Nie Peixiao smiled sincerely and said: "Even if you are sick and haggard, you are also a sick beauty, better than the vulgar fans in the world more than a hundred times." ”
"Listening to King Cheng's praise like this, it is really very useful." Out of Xiu said with a smile, and remembered that Qu Fang had said that in the past few months when he was on the sickbed, Nie Peixiao was so worried that he didn't even participate in the ceremony of sealing the king, so he hurriedly rushed over from Jingzhou with the imperial doctor, and came to visit many times during the period.
If it is false to say that there is no emotion, not to mention that the other party is a prince, and he has been crazy for two or three years before and after, if he was acting on the spot, he should have given up a long time ago. It is said that women cherish their faces, as long as they remember that they were seen by him when they were sick, they can still hear him say this praise, and they are also moved in addition to comforting.
In the spring of March, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the leaves outside the Yanlan City are graceful and graceful, allowing people to climb and fold, like the sad fate of the Qinglou woman. Izumi looked at the willow leaves and flowers in a daze, thinking of his past experience, and couldn't help but be a little distracted.
"Ma'am?" Nie Peixiao's concerned voice came at the right time: "But you are not feeling well? ”
Out of Xiu slowly came back to his senses and looked up, only to see Nie Peixiao's purple brocade robe and golden ribbon, handsome and elegant, graceful and graceful, with a faint flicker of affection and worry in his eyes.
Out of Xiu sighed silently in his heart, this is a nobleman, but what about himself? She lowered her eyebrows and smiled lightly, with a burst of self-deprecation: "I'm fine, I've just been gone for a while." ”
Nie Peixiao's frowning eyebrows stretched out, and she pondered for a moment and said, "Do you know what the biggest change is after you recover from your illness this time?" ”
Izuku hesitated slightly, and smiled back: "Could it be that I have become ugly." ”
Nie Peixiao shook her head, she didn't sell it, her eyes were burning and blazing, and her magnetic voice sounded slowly, and it was difficult to hide her pleasure: "After you recovered this time, you didn't call yourself a 'concubine' in front of me." ”
Is it? As soon as Nie Peixiao said this, Chu Xiu realized this, and she seemed to have really slackened her guard in front of him, at least she no longer called herself a "concubine", just like the other party had long since ceased to call herself "this king". This is actually a very subtle feeling, and if you taste it carefully, you will know that it is a kind of familiarity after putting down each other's bodies and letting go of their alienation.
If Nie Peixiao's words had been placed a year ago or half a year ago, Izumi might have felt a burning sensation at the root of her ears when she heard it, and she was stunned, alienated, and deliberately avoided. But now, after experiencing this disease of life and death, she doesn't care much about all the etiquette, and the words and expressions of outsiders can be treated indifferently. It's just because she's more determined, but she can't say what she's firm.
Izumi has been silent, Nie Peixiao has been looking at her like this, a serious illness has hurt her vitality, Izuxiu's jaw is even sharper, like a small lotus that dews in summer, with the not very ruddy cherry lips, showing a different kind of delicate pink.
Whether it is sick or cured, she is always the first beauty in Nanxi, at least for so many years, Nie Peixiao asked herself if she had never seen a more beautiful person, even if there was someone with a better appearance, but after all, it was not Han Chu, nor was it Xiu.
Suddenly, he blurted out like a ghost: "I am not a supporter of the separation of spirit and body......"
