Beloved Empress

Chapter 141: 141 Blushing? Fever?

Views:

Han Yixiao was very calm at this time. For a man who has been on the battlefield, even if he feels very uneasy, he will not let himself get into trouble. The more he is in this situation, the more he must stay calm and calmly said: "I'm going to take off your shirt and look at your wounds. There's blood on your clothes."

Bai Jiu said shyly: "General, I feel very cold, so don't take off my shirt. Just tear the clothes off my back and pull out the arrow."

Han Yixiao nodded: "Okay." He helped her lie down on the mattress, stretched his big hand to the position where she was hit by the arrow, and reminded: "Please bear with it."

Bai Jiu nodded: "General, take action! I can hold it back."

Han Yixiao held the arrow, took a deep breath, quickly pulled out the arrow from Bai Jiu's back, and pulled it out bloody.

The soldiers have brought hot water, cotton balls, and gauze.

Han Yixiao immediately helped Bai Jiu stop the bleeding.

After the bleeding stopped, Han Yixiao tore the clothes off her back and exposed the wound. The blood at the wound had turned black.

Han Yixiao cursed angrily: "Damn it!"

Bai Jiu asked in confusion: "What happened to the general?"

Han Yixiao said truthfully: "The arrow has been quenched with poison."

Bai Jiu smiled faintly: "Since they want to kill Ning Nanhou, they will definitely choose the most vicious method. I have expected it. The general may see what kind of poison it is? Am I hopeless?"

Han Yixiao reprimanded: "Stop talking nonsense. With this general here, I will not let anything happen to you. Just bear with it." After saying that, Han Yixiao suddenly lowered his head, lay on Bai Jiu's wound, and used it himself. He helped her take drugs.

Warm breath came from behind, Bai Jiu's heartbeat speeded up unconsciously, her face turned red instantly, and the pain in her back seemed to disappear instantly, making her lower her head shyly, but she was very worried about his safety. He said worriedly: "General, you can't use this method to help me suck out the poison from my body. If I'm not careful, the poison will enter my body from your mouth."

Han Yixiao said calmly: "Don't worry, it's okay." Han Yixiao continued to lie down and help her take the drug, spitting out black poisonous blood. It wasn't until red blood flowed out from Bai Jiu's wound that he breathed a sigh of relief. .

He helped Bai Jiu sit up, looked at her and said, "I'm worried that the poison will flow to your body through the blood, so now I want to help you use your energy to completely remove the poison."

Bai Jiu looked at him and nodded.

Han Yixiao saw something was wrong with Bai Jiu's face and asked worriedly: "General Bai, why is your face so red? Are you feeling unwell?" He grabbed her hand and found that her hand was very hot, and said worriedly: " General Bai, are you so hot? Do you have a fever?"

Bai Jiu immediately shook his head: "No, maybe it's too hot. It's okay."

Han Yixiao urged: "If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me in time."

Bai Jiu nodded.

Han Yixiao sat behind her and helped her use her energy and poison.

When the poison in Bai Jiu's body was completely eliminated, Han Yixiao asked her to lie down again, helped her clean the wound, stop the bleeding, apply medicine, and bandage it. After everything was done, Han Yixiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly: "Okay, the poison in the wound has been completely cleaned, but the wound is very deep and it will take some time to heal."

Bai Jiu smiled optimistically: "General, don't worry, I'm young and healthy, this injury won't be a problem."

Han Yixiao's face turned cold when he saw her, and he scolded unhappily: "Who asked you to block my arrow? Do you know how dangerous it is to do this? Fortunately, the poison is not highly toxic, otherwise you would have died. . ”

This was the first time Han Yixiao scolded Bai Jiu after she entered the military camp! Although he became a little timid when he became strict, she knew very well that the reason why he scolded her was because he cared about her, so she was still very happy in her heart, and a smile appeared on her lips.

Seeing her smile, Han Yixiao became even more angry: "How long has it been and you can still laugh? Do you think you don't want this little life anymore?"

Bai Jiu looked at him and said seriously: "Of course I want it! Because the general wants to continue to study with the general! But the general cares more about the life of the general. If the general and the general must have one If you want to die, then I am willing to die for the general. I am very happy to be able to block this arrow for the general. If I have to do it again, I will do it again."

"I don't need you to do this. I am your general. It is my responsibility to protect you, not to let you fight to the death to protect me." Han Yixiao said angrily. He has always been the one to protect others, and this is the first time he has been protected by others. , and she had just entered the military camp, so she was thin. It really hurt him to see her hurt.

Bai Jiu argued: "As subordinates of the general, we have the responsibility to protect the safety of the general."

"Your responsibility is not to protect my safety, but to protect the country and its people."

Bai Jiu said willfully: "In the heart of the general, protecting the safety of the general is the most important, because the general is the pillar of the country and a wizard who protects the country. Only when the general is good can our country of Huachen be peaceful and the people are safe. Foreign enemies dare not invade, so protecting the safety of the general is of paramount importance, more important than protecting the people and the country." She is just a little woman, not so ambitious. She only hopes to protect the country within her limited ability. She was content if the people she cared about were not harmed.

Han Yixiao looked at her and sighed helplessly: "It seems that after I return, I will give you a good talk about my responsibilities as a military general and the heavy burden on my shoulders."

Bai Jiu smiled and said, "Okay, the general will talk to the junior general more when he gets back."

Han Yixiao looked at her and gave a serious order: "This general is ordering you to never do this again if something similar happens in the future."

Bai Jiu lowered his head and said nothing.

Han Yixiao asked sternly: "Did you hear that? Answer."

Bai Jiu immediately hugged his shoulders and said, "I'm so cold, my whole body is so cold."

Han Yixiao shook his head helplessly, pulled her over, hugged her in his arms, and asked in a gentle tone: "Is this better?" Because it was summer, he didn't bring any quilt with him when he came out. He didn't expect that this would happen. Unexpectedly, she had just been poisoned. Although she was forced out, her body was very weak. It was normal for her body to be cold.

Bai Jiu's face turned red again, he lowered his head and nodded: "Much better."

She snuggled into his arms, with a sweet smile on her lips, slowly closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep.

Han Yixiao listened to the even breathing coming from the person in his arms and knew that she was asleep. He gently put her down, let her lie down, took off his coat to cover her, and then walked out.

The soldiers did not dare to go back to the tent to rest. They sat outside the tent one after another, leaning back to back and falling asleep.

Han Yixiao came out and saw this scene, and said: "Everyone, please go back to the tent and sleep! The assassin will not come again tonight."

"Yes!" The soldiers got up and returned to their tents.

Although he told the soldiers that the assassin would not come again, Han Yixiao did not dare to relax. He hoped that the soldiers could have a good rest so that they would be energetic for the journey tomorrow. He sat down under a tree outside the tent and leaned on On the tree trunk, I looked around. On this slope, I could clearly see everything under the slope. I glanced at Bai Jiu's tent, closed my eyes, and rested.

Han Yixiao was a good general who loved his soldiers very much. He was willing to work harder and sleep in the open at night, and he also hoped that the soldiers could have a good rest.

The next day, when it was dawn, some soldiers got up and saw the general sleeping outside. They felt very guilty, but they also admired the general.

At this time, Han Yixiao woke up and stood up. He saw that the soldiers had already risen and walked towards them.

The soldiers said distressedly: "General, you let us go back to the tent to sleep, but you slept outside. It's all because of your subordinates."

Han Yixiao said calmly as always: "You don't need to feel guilty. The general thought it was too stuffy in the tent, so he slept outside. Okay, prepare breakfast, pack your things, and continue on your way at dawn."

"Yes!" The soldiers went to work quickly.

Bai Jiu had a good night's sleep and woke up early. He sat up and saw the clothes covering his body. He picked it up and smiled sweetly at the corner of his mouth. He recalled what happened last night and his face turned red.

Han Yixiao walked in and saw Bai Jiu alone in a daze, so he said, "General Bai, what are you thinking so deeply about?"

Bai Jiu's thoughts were brought back. When he saw Han Yixiao, his face turned even redder. He looked away and said, "I didn't think about anything. I just thought that the general's life was quite high. I thought he would definitely die yesterday!"

"Don't talk nonsense! The soldiers all said that you are a blessed person, and you will definitely live a long life." Han Yixiao walked to her and sat down. Seeing her face red, he asked worriedly: "General Bai "Are you feeling unwell again? Why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?" He reached out and touched her forehead.

Bai Jiu immediately explained: "General, I don't have a fever, I just feel that the weather today is too cold. It is hot."

Han Yixiao retracted his hand and said: "It is indeed very hot today. It was so hot early in the morning. It will be even hotter after the sun comes out, so we have to hit the road early. I just don't know if General Bai's body can hold on."

Bai Jiujiang said: "General, don't worry about my body. I'm fine. This injury is nothing to me. As a martial arts practitioner, injuries are nothing. Just follow the general's wishes. Earlier, Hurry, get to Kyoto as soon as possible, and hand over Ning Nanhou to the emperor, so that our mission can be completed."

Han Yixiao nodded.

Bai Jiu handed him his clothes: "General, thank you for your clothes."

Han Yixiao took the clothes and put them on, and said calmly: "General Bai's clothes are stained with blood, so let's change them! Wearing such clothes on the road, I'm afraid the people will be scared when we get to the town ahead. If General Bai If you are injured and inconvenient, this general can help you."

Bai Jiu immediately refused: "No need to trouble the general, the general can do it himself."

Han Yixiao nodded: "Okay, I won't disturb General Bai. General Bai will come out and have breakfast after changing his clothes!"

Bai Jiu nodded: "Okay, I will go out soon."

Han Yixiao went out first.

Bai Jiu breathed out and murmured: "Han Yixiao, what would you do if you knew that I was a girl? Will you kick me out of the military camp? Or will you punish me with military law and kill me? And I, the Duke of Zhenguo, will Can you accept my daughter's identity?" Thinking of this, Bai Jiu, who had always been optimistic and carefree, suddenly felt very depressed.

The soldiers quickly prepared breakfast. Bai Jiu changed her clothes and walked out. Although her back was injured and there was pulling when changing clothes, which made the wound very painful, but no matter how painful or troublesome it was, she would still She can only solve it by herself, because her identity must not be known to anyone.

When the soldiers saw Bai Jiu coming out, they all stepped forward and asked, "General Bai, how is your injury?"

"General Bai, does your injury still hurt?"

Bai Jiu said with a bright smile on his lips: "Thank you brothers for your concern. My injury is not serious. Although it was still a little painful when I woke up in the morning, after hearing your concern, it no longer hurts at all." Yes, it seems that the concern of brothers is more powerful than the general’s medicine!”

The soldiers were amused by Bai Jiu's words and couldn't help but joke: "General Bai can still tease us. It seems that the injury is really fine."

"If General Bai likes our concern, then how about we say a word of concern to General Bai every day from now on?"

Everyone agreed: "Okay! General Bai, don't get tired of hearing this!"

Bai Jiu raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Who would be annoyed if you care? I'm afraid you will say it's annoying! Hahaha—"

"Hahaha—" Everyone laughed happily.

When Han Yixiao saw this scene, he shook his head and smiled. Even though she was so injured, she could still smile so happily. I really admire her. She is like a pistachio in the military camp, where there is laughter and laughter.

Another soldier said seriously: "General Bai, you protected the general from a hidden weapon this time. We all admire you. When we get to the next forest, we will help you catch pheasants and rabbits and roast them to eat. We will help you recuperate. Let your injury heal as soon as possible."

Bai Jiu pointed to the soldier who was speaking and said, "Then we've made an agreement! It's a deal."

"It's a deal." All the soldiers said in unison.

Ning Nanhou looked at this scene and said to Han Yixiao: "This General Bai is a rare talent and will definitely become the pillar of the country in the future. General Han has such a good vision and has such a good subordinate. "

A faint smile flashed across Han Yixiao's lips. He was really proud that he had selected her in the Wu champion competition. She had always done well and never let him down.

After breakfast, everyone was getting ready to go on the road. Han Yixiao was worried about Bai Jiu's health and asked her to ride in the same carriage as Ning Nanhou.

Bai Jiu refuses.

But the soldiers advised her to take the carriage.

Bai Jiu didn't want to worry everyone, so he nodded in agreement.

Marquis Ningnan and Bai Jiu were sitting in a carriage. In fact, at this time, it was easy for Bai Jiu to kill Marquis Ningnan. Just put some chronic poison on him and let him die before entering the capital. No one would suspect it. she. But now she has given up the idea of killing Ning Nanhou. Last night, she saw Han Yixiao protecting Ning Nanhou regardless of his own comfort. It shows that Ning Nanhou is really important to him. Although he does not understand the emperor, There was some connection between Ning Nanhou and her father, but she felt the importance of Ning Nanhou's existence. If she killed him rashly, she would have fulfilled her father's wish and become his obedient daughter, but she was worried It would harm more innocent people, so she planned to let Ning Nanhou see the emperor smoothly, and let the emperor decide the merits. Whether Ning Nanhou really rebelled, or was wronged, let the emperor judge him.

Ning Nanhou looked at Bai Jiu, who had not said a word since getting in the car, and said with a kind smile: "General Bai is really young and brave. General Han is proud to have a subordinate like you."

Bai Jiu looked at Ning Nanhou and smiled: "Master Hou, don't praise me like this, I will be proud."

Ning Nanhou shook his head and said with a smile: "General Bai will not do that. I think I can judge people fairly well. Although some people are young and promising, they are full of arrogance. It is difficult for such people to achieve great things, but General Bai, although young and promising, is upright and kind, without any arrogance or airs, and gets along well with the soldiers. Such a person will not be proud no matter how much praise he receives. If it hadn't been for you last night Blocking an arrow for the general will have disastrous consequences. Not only is the general’s life in danger, but I have already died, so General Bai is not only helping the general block the sword, he is also saving me.”

Bai Jiu shook his head: "Master Hou, I'm not as powerful as you said. The Marquis and the general are blessed people. Even if the general doesn't rescue him, they will be fine. But the general didn't protect the master well. The Marquis was frightened and almost injured by an assassin because the general did not protect him well, and the general should apologize to the Marquis."

Ning Nanhou smiled: "If you say so, it was me who asked you to go out and help the general. If it is investigated, it will be my fault."

Bai Jiu shook his head: "No, no. The Marquis also cares about the general."

Ning Nanhou smiled: "Okay, let's not talk about the past. If we encounter this kind of thing again on the road, General Bai must protect himself well and not put himself in danger just to save me."

"Master Marquis, are you really not afraid of death?" Every time I come into contact with Marquis Ning Nan, I feel like he doesn't look like a bad person.

Ning Nanhou smiled: "Everyone is afraid of death! But if death is worthwhile, there is nothing to be afraid of."

"General, I don't think the Marquis is a person capable of rebellion. Why would you hide the dragon robe secretly? Is someone framing you?" Bai Jiu asked tentatively.

Marquis Ningnan smiled calmly and said: "Nowadays, the traitors are in power in the court. The emperor wants to get rid of the traitors, but the traitors are too powerful and too rampant. The innocent and loyal people are killed. It is really heart-breaking. I don't regret dying. It's a pity that I can't see it with my own eyes." I really won’t be reconciled until my treacherous minister is executed!”

"The treacherous official mentioned by Marquis Ning Nan must be the Duke of Zhenguo!" Bai Jiu guessed.

Ning Nanhou smiled helplessly and said: "In the past, he was a loyal minister and good general who kept our Huachen Kingdom in peace. Now that he has become more and more powerful, his thoughts have changed. General Bai, the future of Huachen Kingdom still needs you." The emperor also needs the help of young and promising people like you, these young people. You must protect yourself, relieve the emperor's worries, and share the country's worries. Alas!"

Bai Jiu's thoughts drifted away, and he thought in his heart: Is dad really a traitor? Could it be that the world misunderstood him

When they arrived at the next town, Han Yixiao took the soldiers into the inn and asked them to eat and sleep well so that they could continue on their journey.

After dinner, Bai Jiu returned to her room and stood alone in front of the window looking at the dark night outside. She felt a little depressed. She felt very depressed when she thought about Ning Nanhou's incident, which might have been instigated by her father.

"Dong dong dong -" there was a knock on the door from outside.

Bai Jiu pulled back his thoughts, turned around and said, "Come in."

The door was opened, and Han Yixiao walked in: "General Bai."

Seeing Han Yixiao, Bai Jiu's face burst into a happy smile: "General, why are you here?"

Han Yixiao picked up the medicine bottle in his hand and said, "Let me take a look at General Bai's injury. The carriage and horses were bumpy all the way. I don't know if the wound has been stretched. Let me apply medicine to General Bai!"

When Bai Jiu heard this, he quickly refused and said, "No need, General. I've been sitting in the carriage today, and I didn't injure my wounds."

"Even if the wound is not pulled, medicine still needs to be applied. General Bai hurt his back. If it is inconvenient to apply medicine yourself, let me do it for you! General Bai, sit down on the bed!" Han Yixiao said disapprovingly.

But Bai Jiu was extremely nervous. Last time he helped him pull out the arrow, he could find an excuse to let him tear up his clothes and apply medicine. But now, the clothes are fine, and he can't let him tear them up from behind. Take medicine! Therefore, when applying the medicine, you need to take off your shirt and be shirtless. In that case, your daughter will be exposed by him. No, you must not let him apply the medicine to you.

Seeing Bai Jiu standing still, Han Yixiao asked in confusion: "General Bai, what's wrong with you?"

"Uh! Hehe, General, you have a distinguished status, how can I ask you to help me apply the medicine! Isn't this a shame for the general? General, you should put down the medicine! The general will apply the medicine himself." Bai Jiu I quickly made an excuse.

Han Yixiao smiled: "We are all brothers when we go out, there is no difference in status. You were injured because you were trying to save me. I should help you apply medicine. Come and sit down." He stretched out his hand to pull Bai Bai away. Nine.

Bai Jiu immediately took a step back and refused: "No, I, I don't like to be shirtless in front of others, so - I'd better do it by myself! Thank you, General, for your kindness."

Han Yixiao looked at Bai Jiu with some confusion, looked him up and down and said, "General Bai, you and I are both men, but we are just taking medicine with our arms bare, why are you so nervous?"

"Me, the thing is like this, because the general is relatively thin, so when I was playing with some playmates when I was a child, and we went to bathe in the river together, they would laugh at me, saying that my body was too thin, like a girl, wearing clothes I don’t think I feel more like a girl when I take off my clothes, so I don’t like to take off my clothes in front of others.” Bai Jiu quickly lied. Although she didn't want to lie to him, in this situation, she could only tell such a lie.

Han Yixiao laughed after hearing this: "There is such a thing. No wonder when you were in the military camp, the soldiers took you to take a bath in the lake. You said you were unwilling to go. At that time, I thought it was strange! It turned out to be this reason .”

Bai Jiu pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Does the general also think that the figure of the junior general is too thin?"

Han Yixiao nodded: "Your figure is indeed smaller than that of ordinary men, but who has stipulated that only women can be thin, so you don't have to suggest too much. When it comes to martial arts, your martial arts are much better than those men who are tall and thick. So you don't have to feel inferior. The soldiers will not laugh at you."

"But what happened when I was a child still had a profound impact on me." Bai Jiu murmured.

Han Yixiao said lightly: "In that case, I won't force General Bai. I've put this medicine here. General Bai can take it himself! If it's inconvenient, you can come to me at any time."

Bai Jiu nodded: "Okay, thank you, General."

"Take the medicine and rest early!" Han Yixiao put the medicine on the table and left.

Bai Jiu breathed a long sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, "What a risk, what a risk."

In the palace, Mo Qiqi saw that Jun Qianche's wound was slowly healing, and she was very happy: "Your Majesty, your wound has begun to heal. I believe it will not take long. But the Emperor must remember this period of time. Don’t touch the water.”

Jun Qianche nodded: "Yes! I understand."

Mo Qiqi helped Jun Qianche apply medicine and bandage the wound quickly. Then help him put on his clothes.

"Sit down!" Jun Qianche said calmly.

Mo Qiqi sat down next to him. The atmosphere between the two was a little awkward. In order to break the awkwardness, Mo Qiqi picked up the snacks on the small table and said: "Your Majesty, have a snack! This is made by Concubine Chun herself. Yes, she personally makes it and delivers it every day, it’s really hard on her.”

Jun Qianche glanced at the snacks, took them and put them back, saying calmly: "I'm not hungry."

"You're not hungry! Let's drink some tea! I, my concubine, will help the emperor make some tea." He stood up.

Jun Qianche suddenly stretched out his hand, took her little hand, and pulled her into his arms with a little force.

Suddenly falling into Jun Qianche's arms, Mo Qiqi was startled, looked at him, and smiled awkwardly: "Your Majesty, what happened to you tonight?" What does this guy want to do? Mo Qiqi, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you are pregnant now, less than three months old, he doesn't dare to mess around. Thinking of this, Mo Qiqi's nervous mood relaxed a lot.

"Qiqi, do you believe that I can protect your mother and son?" Jun Qianche looked at her and asked seriously.
