Shen Ruolian was helped back to the room by Pei Ci'an.

Qiu Rong had been waiting at the door for a long time, his face was so frightened that when he saw them coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward to take Shen Ruolian from Pei Ci'an.

"Princess ......"

Seeing that Qiu Rong looked like she was about to cry, Shen Ruolian smiled at her, tried her best to put on a casual expression, and said:

"Okay, I'm fine, you go get some hot water."

Qiu Rong nodded hurriedly, "After Gonggong Li sent someone to pass the word, I began to prepare hot water, and I was preparing it, and I was going to go out to find the princess, and the princess came back." ”

She helped Shen Ruolian to the door of the main room, and then turned to Pei Ci'an and said:

"Thank you, Lord Pei, the side room is also equipped with hot water and clean clothes, so let's go and clean up."

Shen Ruolian looked back at Pei Ci'an, and saw that he was still standing under the porch and not moving, looking at herself worriedly, she smiled and said with relief:

"Go quickly, I'm really fine, just call the doctor to come over and take a look after cleaning up later."

"Okay."

After Pei Ci'an finished speaking, he watched her go in, and then turned around and entered the side room.

As soon as Shen Ruolian entered the room, her body couldn't hold on, her legs were weak, and most of her strength was leaning on Qiu Rong.

Qiu Rong was about to be frightened to death, she exclaimed, and was about to call someone, but Shen Ruolian stopped her, "It's okay, I'll just take a hot bath." ”

From the time she woke up to the present, the pain in her lungs that was about to explode had not been alleviated, her head was dizzy, and her body was so cold that she seemed to be still soaking at the bottom of the lake.

Actually, she was very uncomfortable, but she didn't want to speak now.

There are only a limited number of doctors in the temple, and now the doctor must be in Sun Jingchu's room, and now Qiu Rong is going to call, and he must let Yan Wen misunderstand that he is jealous of Sun Jingchu because of him, and he doesn't want that doctor to treat Sun Jingchu.

After all, she woke up soon and looked good, but Sun Jingchu was still unconscious until she left.

Thinking of Fang Cai Yan Wen's expression when he hugged Sun Jingchu in the water, and the scene when he left with Sun Jingchu without hesitation, she became angry.

So I'd rather endure the pain myself than let him look down on him.

Shen Ruolian insisted on not letting Qiu Rong call anyone, and only let her help herself sit in the bathtub.

However, as soon as she sat inside, she frowned and wondered:

"Has this water been boiling for a long time and let it cool?"

Qiu Rong was stunned, and tested the water temperature with his hands, "No, it's hot, I also specially prepared it is hotter than the princess usually uses, doesn't the princess think it's hot?" Do you want me to add some more hot water? ”

Shen Ruolian nodded, "Add some." ”

She thought that she must have been frozen in the lake just now, and at the moment her body couldn't slow down, so she felt that the water temperature was not hot enough.

Qiu Rong added some hot water to it, and Shen Ruolian felt warmer, and then sent Qiu Rong out to wait, and by the way, let her see, if Pei Ci'an finished washing, he would greet someone.

"Then the princess will wash first, and the slave will go and boil more hot water."

Qiu Rong made sure that she was okay again, so she answered and walked outside.

"That's right, Qiu Rong!"

When the footsteps behind him reached the door, Shen Ruolian suddenly called Qiu Rong, bit her lip and hesitated for a long time, then turned back to her and said:

"You go over and see how Miss Sun is, she doesn't seem to have brought a maid with her today, I'm afraid she has something inconvenient, you go and see her."

Sun Jingchu was dragged down by herself in the end, and her life and death were uncertain at the moment, so she should let Qiu Rong go over to see if there was anything she needed to help.

"Okay, the slave will go over after boiling the water."

Shen Ruolian immediately shook her head and said:

"You go to Miss Sun first, I can do it myself."

Qiu Rong: "Then the princess will wash first, and the slave will go back to see it." ”

"Hmm."

-

After Pei Ci'an finished bathing, he changed into clean clothes and came out of the side room.

He looked left and right, didn't see Qiu Rong's figure, hesitated slightly, walked to the door of the main room, thinking about saying something to Shen Ruolian outside the door, and he went to the front hall to report his mother's safety before coming to see her.

However, he stood at the door, and called the princess several times in a row, but no one answered.

He estimated that maybe Shen Ruolian was too comfortable to fall asleep, and Qiu Rong went elsewhere, so he didn't plan to call her again, thinking that he would go back quickly, and he wouldn't be able to delay for long on the way.

After making up his mind, he turned around, and suddenly there was a muffled sound of something falling to the ground in the room behind him, the sound was not loud, but it was very abrupt in this quiet courtyard.

Pei Ci'an paused, a trace of bad premonition surged in his heart, and he hurriedly fell back again, knocking on the door while shouting the princess.

But except for the sound just now, the door was quiet again, and no one answered at all.

Pei Ci'an was anxious, and he couldn't rush into the door, he shouted at the door for a while, he thought about it, and immediately turned around and walked out of the hospital.

-

Pei Ci'an just shouted a few times, Yan Wen also faintly heard it in the courtyard next door, and when he was about to go out with Qiu Rong to have a look, Pei Ci'an had already broken in.

Yan Wen's heart sank suddenly, "What's the matter?" ”

Pei Ci'an looked anxious, he didn't have time to come to him, hurriedly saluted the prince, and said hurriedly:

"Princess, princess doesn't seem to be very good!"

Yan Wen thought of Pei Ci'an's call to the door, and instantly understood in his heart.

His jaw strained suddenly, and a hint of heavy color suddenly appeared under his eyes, he glanced at Qiu Rong and said calmly:

"You go back first, wrap the princess in clothes, and Lone will come later."

Qiu Rong was already so panicked that he had no master, and after listening to Yan Wen's words, he immediately responded and ran out in a hurry, not even noticing that he had brought down the broom standing by the door when he went out.

Seeing that Pei Ci'an also wanted to go over with Qiu Rong, Yan Wen stopped him in a deep voice, "Pei Qing, you wait." ”

Pei Ci'an paused, then understood, and couldn't help but feel a trace of abruptness in his heart.

He silently pulled a wry smile, secretly confessed that he had lost his temper, picked up the broom, obediently retreated, and waited outside the door.

After giving everything, Yan Wen turned around and walked inside.

The old doctor was collecting needles from the acupuncture points on Sun Jingchu's wrist.

"What's wrong with the princess?"

Sun Jingchu had already woken up, but her face was still very pale, her voice was very weak, and her slightly condensed eyebrows actually looked at the fragile beauty of rain hitting begonias.

Yan Wen stood by the door, pressed his eyelids, his obscure eyes fell on her face, and he looked at her for a moment, but did not respond to her words, and looked at the old doctor instead:

"The old gentleman went with me to the next door, and the situation of the housekeeper didn't seem to be very good."

The prince's tone was gentle and courteous, and his words were approachable, but when he listened closely, he could detect the majesty flowing in his peaceful tone, as well as a trace of imperceptible worry.

The old doctor is a Taoist doctor in the temple, with outstanding medical skills, but his temper is as stubborn as a donkey.

But he respected this high-looking prince from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't take Qiao in front of him at all, after listening to him, he hurriedly straightened the medicine box and walked quickly to the door, and said respectfully:

"Your Highness, please."

Yan Wen said gently: "I'm tired." ”

With that, he didn't delay any longer, turned around and left with the old doctor.

When he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, glanced in, his voice was faint and he couldn't hear the emotion, and said to Sun Jingchu:

"You don't have to come along."

With that, he hurried down the steps.

Pei Ci'an saw him come out and hurriedly followed him towards that side.

When he walked to the gate of the courtyard next door, Yan Wen's pace slowed down and said to Pei Ci'an, who was following behind:

"Gu remembered that Gu's bracelet fell in Biluo Pavilion, can you bother Pei Qing to help Gu get it?"

Biluo Pavilion is the courtyard of Sun Jingchu.

Pei Ci'an was surprised when he heard this, and then looked at his wrist and saw that the rosewood bracelet he often wore on his wrist was indeed not there.

"Okay, I've seen the princess—"

"Go now." Yan Wen interrupted him.

He seldom showed such strength to his subordinates, and because of his majesty, he only had to speak gently and gracefully, and no one would dare to disobey.

But this time, his tone was rarely a little cold and sharp, as if he couldn't contain his emotions.

Pei Ci'an choked, froze in place, glanced at him quickly, and silently bowed his head in response to "yes".

After Pei Ci'an left, Yan Wen's steps became faster and faster, and he almost completely forgot about the demeanor he should have as a prince.

He walked quickly towards the room, and by the time he entered the room, Qiu Rong had already wrapped Shen Ruolian's clothes tightly, and added an extra layer of cloak to the outside of the clothes.

Shen Ruolian fainted in the bathtub, and it was naturally impossible for a weak woman in Qiurong to pick her up, so she could only wrap her clothes as tightly as possible, waiting for the prince or Pei Gongzi to come and carry her out.

When Yan Wen entered, his eyebrows jumped heavily, and under the damp and ambiguous air, a trace of inexplicable intense emotions suddenly surged in his heart.

That emotion was not controlled by him in the slightest, and it quickly rose and disappeared quickly, as if an embroidery needle had pierced the heart.

He quietly licked his teeth with the tip of his tongue, took two steps forward, first probed Shen Ruolian's forehead, and then scooped her and her clothes out of the water.

Holding her in his arms, he realized that the little girl was so light and soft.

He hurriedly swept her face, tightened his arms, and carried the person back to the outer room with steady steps.

Her clothes were stamped on his chest, staining his freshly changed dry clothes and soaking wet, and she exchanged heat with him, and he noticed that she was horribly hot.

Somehow, Yan Wen felt that he was also hot.

He didn't think much about it, and hurriedly put Shen Ruolian on the couch outside, and told Qiu Rong to clean up for her, while he went out and waited outside with the old doctor.

After a while, Qiu Rong opened the door and said that the princess had cleaned up, and Yan Wen hurriedly took the old doctor inside.

When Pei Ci'an took the bracelet back, the old doctor was giving Shen Ruolian an needle, he walked to the side of the bed with light steps, and saw that her face was flushed, but her lips were bloodless, and he couldn't help but worry for a while.

He stepped forward, respectfully handed the bracelet to Yan Wen, and whispered:

"Your Highness, the bracelet has been taken."

However, after he finished speaking, he waited for a long time, and no one responded, Pei Ci'an was a little puzzled, and couldn't help but look up at the prince.

I saw that the prince's brows were tightly locked, and he was staring at Shen Ruolian on the bed for a moment, his thick gaze pressed under the darkness of the arch of his eyebrows.

Seeing his appearance, Pei Ci'an's heart jumped suddenly, and a chill rushed to the top of his head, and he tried to call again, "Your Highness?" ”

This time Yan Wen heard it.

He looked back at him, his brows and eyes gentle, and his countenance, though vaguely worried, remained as steady and calm as ever.

He took the bracelet, thanked him, and took the initiative to get up, gave up the position closest to Shen Ruolian, and said to him slowly:

"Look at her, go and change your clothes alone."

Only then did Pei Ci'an notice that the clothes on the prince's chest were wet, which was obviously caused by him when he took her out.

As soon as he thought of him carrying her out, the strange feeling in Pei Ci'an's heart appeared again.

He swept the bracelet on Yan Wen's wrist, and couldn't help but start thinking more, if he was not the closest to the princess when he was by the lake, if he was as close as he was to the princess, would the prince still allow him to save the princess?

After all, it was wet clothes and skin to skin.

Pei Ci'an couldn't stop beating wildly, and couldn't help but glance at the prince again, seeing that the prince's face was calm, his eyes were peaceful, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were written with the four big characters of Guangfeng Jiyue, and he wondered if he was thinking too much.

Maybe the crown prince's expression was just too worried about his sister, or maybe he was worried about Shen Ruolian for a while, so he was wrong.

Besides, as soon as he saw him coming, the prince took the initiative to give him his position.

The prince has come to self-denial and revenge, and does not deceive the dark room, how can he be such a person.

Thinking of this, Pei Ci'an felt that his idea was too ridiculous, and he couldn't help but feel guilty for his dark thoughts.

In the end, it's the heart of a villain.

After the old doctor finished administering the needle to Shen Ruolian, he got up and said to Pei Ci'an:

"The princess had a cold and fever, and the sewage that choked on her lungs did not cough it out in time, which caused fainting, but now there is no big problem, and the old man will go to prescribe a prescription first."

Pei Ci'an heard that Shen Ruolian choked on water in his lungs and didn't cough it out, and secretly blamed himself for his carelessness, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that the old doctor was okay now.

He bowed to the old doctor, "It's hard work." ”

Qiu Rong sent the old doctor out, and Pei Ci'an sat back on the edge of the bed, staring at Shen Ruolian.

Her brow was tightly knit as if in pain, and all but the two flushes on her cheeks were oozing white.

Pei Ci'an felt uncomfortable, and wanted to go up and touch her little face and smooth her brows.

But in the end, he couldn't help it, now he just got the prince's mouth, and the six rites of the real marriage had to wait until he went back before leaving, and he couldn't take advantage of her coma to surprise her at this moment.

After sitting quietly for a while, there was a steady and rhythmic footstep behind him, and Pei Zi'an hurriedly stood up.

-

Shen Ruolian was in a daze and felt as if she had returned to the time when she was six years old, when she had just arrived in the East Palace.

The surroundings were dark and oppressive, silent, and seemed to fall into the void in the haze.

I don't know how long it took, the black-gray mist slowly dissipated, orange light penetrated through the eyes, and perception slowly returned.

She gradually felt a burning pain in her lungs and throat, a burst of cold and heat on her body, and her eyelids sank as if they weighed a thousand pounds.

She struggled to move her lips, but she couldn't utter a single syllable.

After a long time, there was a sound in her ears, her consciousness was clearer again, and she felt someone caressing her brow.

The cold fingertips fell like feathers on her eyebrows, she felt comfortable, and the heat in her lungs and throat seemed to be relieved, and she couldn't help but stretch her eyebrows.

Slowly, the fingers on her eyebrows slowly circled around her eyebrows, then down the tail of the eye, and finally the cold, vague touch came to her neck, lingered for a moment and then disappeared at the side of her neck.

Shen Ruolian's consciousness was still in chaos, but the touch on her cheeks and the side of her neck was extremely clear, and she could even clearly feel her pulse beating wildly wherever her fingertips went.

It was as if in Jiangnan, where it had been drizzling for a month, and the whole world was foggy.

And in this chaotic tide, her wildly beating pulse is like a drop of water under the eaves, "ticking" and "ticking" falling clearly and sharply on the bluestone slab, and every drop is loud.

Gradually, the mist dissipated, and the sunlight emerged from behind the clouds, Shen Ruolian moved, and slowly opened his eyes.
