Lu Zhengqing was silent for a while and said to Fu Tingye: "The root cause of Miss Hua's illness... is in her head. Please forgive me for not being able to do anything."
Fu Tingye's face darkened and he said, "You said last time that she was fine."
"General, what I'm talking about is temporary... This disease will not hurt your life for the time being. However, if it relapses, there is no guarantee that Miss Hua will not fall asleep again and her body will not be able to wake up. If this continues, it will definitely damage the internal organs."
Fu Tingye's face became increasingly ugly.
Lu Zhengqing paused and said: "For the current plan, we can only try to control it as much as possible and be careful about impact and head stimulation to avoid recurrence of the disease."
"How to avoid head irritation?" Fu Tingye asked.
"If your legs are injured, you should avoid walking and running. If your hands are injured, you should avoid carrying heavy objects. If Miss Hua is injured in the brain, you should avoid overthinking." Lu Zhengqing looked directly at Fu Tingye and pointedly said, "Ms. Hua is the one who is injured." Making a bow with a sword requires a lot of effort, brain and spirit."
Fu Tingye put one hand on the armrest of the high-back chair and tapped his index finger gently, as if he was deep in thought. "You mean...she will never be able to develop new weapons in the future, right?"
Lu Zhengqing's expression became more cautious and he replied in a deep voice: "Yes."
There was a long silence in the room.
After a long while, Fu Tingye said: "This matter must not be spread outside."
"But..." Lu Zhengqing was a little worried. If Hua Qingxue continued like this, she would most likely be in coma again. He could use acupuncture to revive her once, but he might not be able to revive her the second time.
Fu Tingye had other considerations, "If this matter spreads, this peace negotiation will be very detrimental to Daqi."
The envoys of Daliao are still in Shengjing.
"If it's serious, the border may fall into turmoil again." Fu Tingye said in a low voice, "The influence of Si Bing's wife among the people has slowly increased, and we cannot let it go away. Daqi needs Si Bing's wife."
Just like when he was transferred to Qingzhou.
General Fu is no longer exactly his Fu Tingye, but represents a kind of hope. The people have great hopes for General Fu, who has been victorious in the south, and expect him to be able to change the situation of the north being completely suppressed by the Liao Dynasty.
And now, Hua Qingxue also represents a kind of hope.
Behind people's relish in the legendary story of Si Bing's wife, there is an optimistic attitude towards the current situation.
Lu Zhengqing sighed lowly and said, "What the general said is true."
Fu Tingye glanced at him and said calmly: "Don't worry, I won't let her put herself in danger."
Even if she really can't do anything in the future, she still deserves respect and status for everything she has done so far.
But...she should be very disappointed, right
Fu Tingye remembered that whenever Hua Qingxue talked about difficult and difficult knowledge, her little face would be full of excitement and yearning, and her eyes would sparkle as if they were shining.
She is different from the other women, she really likes to delve into these swords, guns, swords and halberds. How to maximize the power of weapons is what interests her most.
…
After leaving Lu Zhengqing's house, Fu Tingye and Hua Qingxue got on the carriage and headed home.
He saw that Hua Qingxue was in a good mood and couldn't help but ask her, "Do you like the Lu family very much?"
Hua Qingxue raised her smile and nodded, "I like it. Dr. Lu is very good, so is Mrs. Lu. The hot pot is delicious, and they also gave me a lot of chili peppers."
Fu Tingye laughed. The reason was simple enough.
Hua Qingxue said with envy: "The relationship between Dr. Lu and his wife is really good. I heard from Mrs. Lu that Dr. Lu was saved by her father. Her father saw that Dr. Lu had great insights into pharmacology, so he accepted her as her. Apprentice, Mrs. Lu has liked Imperial Physician Lu since she was a child... General, do you think this is a childhood sweetheart? That's great... "
Fu Tingye listened silently.
Hua Qingxue glanced at him quietly and said hintingly: "Mrs. Lu also said that Dr. Lu promised her that she would never take a concubine and that she would be a couple for the rest of her life..."
Fu Tingye's expression was disapproving, and he said disdainfully: "It's just a trick to coax women. When Mrs. Lu is old or Lu Zhengqing's position is higher, you can see whether he will accept concubines."
Fu Tingye said this simply because he didn't like Hua Qingxue saying good things about other men. But after saying that, when he saw the pitifully shocked look on the woman next to him, Fu Tingye felt something bad in his heart!
"Don't believe Lu Zhengqing just because he looks like a gentleman. He knows people but doesn't know his heart!" Fu Tingye pretended to cover up his embarrassment and scolded her fiercely, "I have been on the battlefield for more than ten years, and I have never had anyone by my side. Women, only when people like this general say they don’t take concubines can they be trusted.”
Hua Qingxue looked at him dubiously, "There has never been a woman... What about Princess Nanzhao?"
Fu Tingye was choked: "..."
It feels really bad to settle old scores.
In fact, Hua Qingxue didn't mind his past with Wu Xinyao, probably because she knew that Fu Tingye and Wu Xinyao were on opposite sides and there was no way they could be together.
However, she couldn't help but murmur in a low voice: "The doctor Lu has always been Mrs. Lu, there has never been another woman... It was the case before, and it will be in the future... "
Fu Tingye continued to choke: "..." Are you minding his previous love history
The carriage stopped at the right time and arrived at Hua Qingxue's Royal Courtyard.
Hua Qingxue turned around to get out of the car, and Fu Tingye reached out and grabbed her wrist—
Hua Qingxue looked back at him strangely, "What's wrong?"
Fu Tingye asked her with a dark face: "You care about that matter?"
"..." Hua Qingxue pursed her lips and said slowly, "I don't care too much, I just think it's not good for the general to say that to Dr. Lu like that."
But Fu Tingye thought to himself: This woman must be very concerned about it, she is just a tough talker!
Although he didn't want to be misunderstood by Hua Qingxue, it was really pleasant when he knew that she was thinking about Wu Xinyao.
Fu Tingye used a little force on his hand to pull Hua Qingxue back.
Hua Qingxue was unprepared and fell into his arms, feeling a little baffled. what happened again
"I have never touched Wu Xinyao." He stared at her steadily, "I had a few sword fights with her on the battlefield, but after leaving the battlefield, I never touched a hair on her head."
Hua Qingxue blushed and murmured: "I really don't mind..." So you don't need to explain...
But Fu Tingye's hands were like iron, holding her waist without moving at all.
"Although I have known her for a long time, I didn't know she was a woman before. You should know that on the battlefield, she is wearing armor and an iron face. Even if she is as beautiful as a fairy, I can only tell whether she is an enemy or a friend. Who will go? Pay attention to the male and female?”
He was very close to her, and his voice was low and slightly muted, as if he was coaxing her, which made Hua Qingxue blush.
"You are the only woman I have ever touched." Fu Tingye said this, rubbing his rough fingertips on her waist through her clothes. At the end, he added with some sadness, "Actually, I haven't touched you either. …”
Hua Qingxue heard the deep meaning of his words, and her face became even redder, and the tips of her ears turned red!
"Put me down..." She sat in his arms and squirmed restlessly.
"We're home, it's time to go down." Fu Tingye let go of her with a regretful tone.
Hua Qingxue thought with shame and anger: What is there to be sorry for!
She got off the carriage with a red face and was about to enter the gate. She unexpectedly saw some people gathering in the street on one side, and they poked their heads to look this way.
Hua Qingxue was so surprised that she subconsciously stopped.
The villa gifted by Li Jingnan does not face the main street, and it occupies a very large area. The so-called neighbors are very, very far away... Therefore, there are usually very few people nearby.
But what is the situation with these people poking their heads in the streets
Hua Qingxue only took a few glances, but all those people dispersed in a swarm!
—The road is instantly clean.
Hua Qingxue turned around and looked around. There was really no one there, "What's going on..."
"It has been like this in the past two days. There are always people passing by the door of the courtyard intentionally or unintentionally." Fu Tingye said behind her.
The guards and guards here are all arranged by him. If anything happens, he will know it immediately.
After hearing Fu Tingye's words, Hua Qingxue became inexplicably nervous and asked, "Is he a spy from the Liao soldiers?"
After being kidnapped twice, she already has psychological shadow.
Fu Tingye laughed and patted her head dotingly, "Maybe, but most people come to see you."
"Look what I'm doing?" Hua Qingxue felt confused.
Fu Tingye had a smile in his eyes, "Of course I want to see what the famous Lady Si Bing looks like."
Hua Qingxue was speechless.
It’s like this…
She didn't know that since the flower banquet ended, rumors began to spread in Jingli that Mrs. Si Bing was good-looking and not a trivial figure at all. Instead of being ugly, she was extremely beautiful.
Such words became more and more exaggerated as they spread, and in the end, Hua Qingxue was almost described as a stunning beauty who would captivate the entire country!
Hua Qingxue's residence was also exposed when many famous families sent invitations. At least all the people living nearby knew about it, and then spread it to ten, and then to hundreds of people...
Hua Qingxue never thought that she would become a celebrity one day.
Fu Tingye led her inside and said, "If you don't like it, I'll ask someone to drive them away. Don't worry about it."
"No, no need!" Hua Qingxue pulled his sleeves in embarrassment, "They are just curious... It is human nature, there is no need to do anything, it doesn't matter to me."
Fu Tingye thought for a while, "That being said, there is indeed the possibility of spies hiding in it. So, just look around. If anyone dares to approach you, capture and torture them on the spot."
"..." Hua Qingxue didn't know what to say.
General, with less violence, the world would be a much better place...
Hua Qingxue lived in a separate courtyard and rarely went out. People outside wanted to watch her, but they had no chance, and naturally they would not interfere with Hua Qingxue.
The days passed like this day after day.
Li Jingnan still comes to play with her every now and then.
Fu Tingye would also come to her at very regular intervals, usually after work, and occasionally bring news of peace talks.
He said that the envoys of Daliao did not agree to the conditions they proposed and were not willing to give up their new weapons. Now they were going back home to prepare for the second peace talks.
Fu Tingye said that the envoys who came to Daqi for peace talks for the second time were the ones who could really speak to the Emperor of Liao.
In other words, the envoy sent this time was actually just a test.
Hua Qingxue didn't understand political affairs, and couldn't help but become nervous about the peace talks between the two countries. It wasn't until a few days later that she received another letter from Liang Wensheng that her attention shifted to Daliao.
