Qi Yan staggered to the copper basin, washed a clean cloth and folded it and put it on his forehead.
Today's play went too far. In order to quickly accumulate enough goodwill in Nangong Jingnu's heart, Qi Yan skillfully used a "bitter plan".
As a result, the wind evil entered the body and the fever came. She sat back on the bed, took out a small paper bag from the close-fitting pocket in her arms, and opened it, which contained five green pills. This was stuffed by Ding You a few days ago when she asked Ping An Mai Shi, which has the effect of clearing away heat and dispelling fire. It was supposed to be used to deal with her old illness from drowning when she was a child, but she didn't want to use it here.
Qi Yan picked up one and took it, and packed the medicine and kept it close to her body. He folded his clothes and lay down on the bed, pressing one hand on the clean cloth and closing his eyes tiredly.
The meaning of distress came, Qi Yan opened her eyes again and sat up. He simply put on his shoes and washed his face, washed the hot wet cloth again, and blew the light.
The room fell into darkness, Qi Yan sat on the bed and pressed the wet cloth on her head, calmly analyzing: With the degree of Nangong Jingnu's favor, Nangong Wang should need her own support very much.
Nangong Rang this year just happened to be the year of destiny, and there should be ministers in the DPRK who are advocating the canonization of the crown prince.
The emperor's third son was neither the direct descendant nor the elder, and he was even more anxious than himself.
Even if he blows the "pillow wind" in Nangong Jingnu's ear, it will be of great benefit to Nangong Wang. But now there is no chance to contact Nangong Wang, only by using Nangong Jingnu to contact Nangong Wang will he not be suspected.
…
Qi Yan just sat in the room all night, and fell on the bed several times due to dizziness. She gritted her teeth and sat up again. She changed the net cloth again and again, and the headache was splitting.
Finally, Dongfang Lubai.
After Qi Yan came to the screen, she first put the clean cloth on the noodle stand, and after thinking about it, she tore it off and threw it into the copper basin.
…
Sister Nangong finished grooming and came to the Imperial Dining Hall. Nangong Jingnu scooped up a spoonful of crystal clear polished rice porridge, brought it to her mouth and put it down.
"Qiu Ju, go and call Qi Yan."
"Yes."
Hearing this, Nangong Shunv also put down her chopsticks and whispered, "Brother-in-law is older than you and is a concubine. In front of so many servants, it's hard for my sister to call her by her first name."
"Oh... I see."
On the day of marriage, the emperor asked himself to give the person a word, which was somewhat deterrent.
After a few days of getting along with Nangong Jingnu, she felt that Qi Yan was just one: an inflexible, gentle, timid nerd. I didn't want to embarrass Qi Yan anymore because of the words, so I didn't mention it.
Qiu Ju came back in a hurry and called Wan Fu: "Go back to His Highness, the concubine is ill."
"what?"
"The servant went to call for a few times but didn't agree, so she dared to enter the temple. As a result, she saw the concubine lying on the bed in her clothes, unconscious..."
"Xuanyu doctor!" When the voice fell, Nangong Jingnu had already walked out, and Nangong Shunv also got up and followed.
Two palace maids knelt at the entrance of the side hall, tremblingly greeting: "See Your Highness."
"When did you get sick? What sickness did you have?"
The palace maid replied tremblingly: "I don't know, the maid, maybe it was last night..."
"How did you find out?"
"Damn slaves!"
Nangong Jingnu hurried into the bedroom, and saw the person on the bed with eyes closed, brows furrowed, and expressions of pain.
Nangong Jingnu called softly, "Qi Yan?"
An unbearable hum came from Qi Yan's throat, as if responding.
"You... what's wrong with you? Wake up." Nangong Jingnu was a little flustered.
The maid at the entrance greeted Nangong Mistress, "See your Highness."
"Get up."
Nangong Shunv came to the bed, saw Qi Yan's face flushing and said, "Jingnv, can you touch my brother-in-law's forehead to see if it's hot?"
"Oh, good!" Nangong Jingnu pressed Qi Yan's forehead, the temperature was abnormal.
"It's a little hot."
"It's been cold these few days, so it must be a cold and fever. Don't worry, Qiu Ju has already sent to the imperial doctor."
Nangong Shunv instructed again: "Chuntao, bring a damp cloth."
"Yes."
"Give it to this palace."
Nangong Jingnu took the clean cloth and put it on Qi Yan's forehead, Xu Shi felt refreshed in the unbearable heat, and Qi Yan snorted comfortably.
The next moment, he grabbed Nangong Jingnu's hand indiscriminately, and muttered, "His Royal Highness..."
Nangong Shunv couldn't help but laugh, and even Chuntao stepped back wisely. Nangong Jingnu's pale cheeks were covered with red clouds, and she twitched her hands.
How could this seemingly weak person have such great strength, he tried several times without success, so he had to let him go with a blushing face.
After being relieved, Nangong Shunv thought of herself again, her eyes dimmed and she said in a low voice, "I'll go back to the main hall and wait for you first."
"Second sister!"
"Um?"
Nangong Jingnu forcibly broke off Qi Yan's fingers and pulled out her hand, her eyes wandering: "You go to dinner first, remember to drink medicine."
"it is good."
"I, I'll take it to you."
Nangong Shunv chuckled: "No need, there are Lily and Du Juan to accompany me back, you are here to accompany him."
Nangong Jingnu still sent the person to the door, returned to the table and poured a glass of water, took the water glass and drank it into her stomach, but the red glow on her face did not fade.
Ding You watched Qi Yan's first illness, and he was also responsible for the Ping An Meridian after that. According to the rules of the imperial hospital: if Qi Yan does not take the initiative, Ding You will be responsible for her health in the future.
After half an hour, Ding You came with a medicine box on his back.
"My minister, Ding You from the Royal Hospital, see Your Highness Zhen Zhen, Consort."
"Come in."
"Yes."
Ding You knelt beside the bed, took Qi Yan's arm and cut his pulse.
"how is he?"
"Going back to your Highness, from the pulse and symptoms of the concubine, it is the wind evil that has entered the body and caused the fever. However... The concubine's body is weaker than ordinary people, and there is no way to make up for the deficiency, so the minister can only prescribe a mild medicine. Son, the recovery will be slower."
Ding You deliberately exaggerated Qi Yan's condition, intending to create an excuse for her to have a different room. After all, this life has a beautiful face that everyone loves, and you can tell from the concerned expression of this Highness Zhen Zhen.
Nangong Jingnu had a different mood: this illness was caused by standing in the cold wind for most of the day, and she had an inescapable responsibility.
Hearing that Ding You said Qi Yan's health was not good, he felt more and more guilty.
"You can open any medicinal materials you need. If the imperial hospital does not have them, you can get them from the princess's residence."
Ding You opened the pulse case and wrote: "Wind evil enters the body, and fever manifests itself". After thinking for a while, he said to Nangong Jingnu, "Wei Chen still has a few words to instruct."
"Get up and talk."
"Thank you, Your Highness, this..." Seeing that Ding You was hesitating to speak, Nangong Jingnu said, "You guys step back first."
"Here."
"His Royal Highness, the concubine needs to rest during this period of time. The minister will come every day to ask for the Ping An pulse and adjust the prescription in time. It is not advisable to have sex during this period, so as not to aggravate the condition."
"… Ben Gong, I understand."
"Then Wei Chen will go to decoction first."
The breathing of the person lying on the bed increased in vain, and he coughed heavily for a while.
"Qi Yan! Don't you worry?"
Qi Yan frowned, and slowly opened her eyes with a grunt.
She opened her bloodshot eyes and looked at Nangong Jingnu for a while: "Your Highness? You... why are you here?"
"You're sick... I wanted to call you for dinner, Ben Gong..."
Qi Yan looked at Nangong Jingnu quietly, the latter twitched for a while, and said inaudibly, "I'm sorry."
Qi Yan's hearing is sensitive, and he can hear these words clearly. But she looked ignorantly into Nangong Jingnu's eyes: "What did Your Highness say?"
Nangong Jingnv looked away: "Ben Gong, go see if the medicine is ready."
Qi Yan watched Nangong Jingnu escape and left the side hall as if the palace maid closed the door of the bedroom, and she just lay back on the bed and sighed leisurely.
Her hatred for the Nangong royal family has long been deeply rooted in her bones. In order to convince herself to "sincerely" please Nangong Jingnu, she once hypnotized herself in the bottom of her heart: if Xiaodie was alive, she would be this age.
However, in her ten years of planning, this has never been the case.
She thought that she would step into the imperial court and the officials of the Wei State, instead of deceiving an ignorant girl.
But Qi Yan is not guilty, even if Nangong Jingnu did not participate in the events of the year, her body has the blood of the Nangong family flowing, this is the original sin!
Blame, only fate's tricks: Your Highness, let's be friends before this happens.
"Your Highness is going to eat?" Chuntao asked.
Nangong Jingnv came to the imperial dining hall, and saw Nangong Shunv eating, she instantly felt a guilty conscience: "Ben Gong... Let's see how the medicine is fried." After speaking, she turned around abruptly, unable to bear Live touched his hungry stomach and fled the scene.
The second sister must have seen the man grab her hand, right? So I left in a hurry, what should I do now
The eldest sister got married early, and her father was busy with government affairs. The second sister was by her side since she was a child. After taking care of her for several years, she married the person she likes...
Although, although! He and Qi Yan made a gentleman's agreement, just now... Maybe the person he called was the second sister.
Nangong Jingnu comforted herself, but her mood was not clear.
She still doesn't understand the love between men and women, but she just thinks that Qi Yan is a playmate who understands her temperament and is interesting.
I suddenly realized that a favorite thing never "belonged" to me, but she "snatched" it, which is probably how I feel.
After the medicine was cooked, he missed the time for breakfast. Chuntao followed Nangong Jingnu with the warm soup and entered the side hall.
Qi Yan was leaning on the bed, and when she saw Nangong Jingnv about to stand up and salute, Nangong Jingnv walked over quickly: "You lie down, the medicine is here."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Chuntao knelt on the edge of the bed and raised the tray above her head: "Please take the medicine."
Qi Yan took the medicine bowl to test the temperature and drank it all. Put the empty bowl back in its place: "Thank you, Sister Chuntao."
"The slaves retire."
Nangong Jingnu stared at Qi Yan intently, seeing that the other party's brows never moved, she asked curiously, "Is this medicine not bitter?"
Qi Yan twitched the corners of his mouth: "Of course it's bitter."
"Then you still drink so happily?"
"My servant has been frail and sickly since childhood, and I have long been used to drinking medicine like drinking water."
"Oh... that's right! The imperial doctor persuaded me to eat as soon as possible after half an hour. Ben Gong has ordered the small kitchen to cook porridge, and it will be ready soon."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
