I just didn’t want to suffer the cold, so I simply pretended to be sick and played tricks with everyone.
Why is his body so hot?
Do you want to know more about the Pure Yang Internal Power of Flame Palm?
The whole journey was indeed quite tiring, so after practicing Qigong and Qi for several days, I took a short break.
Duan Linger lay on the bed, hugging Xiao Chen's neck, crying quite sadly, but she couldn't squeeze out a single tear, it was just a howl.
Xiao Ye stood aside and watched Sister Ling'er's slightly exaggerated acting without saying a word and without any expression on her face. He also knew that he should cooperate with his brother for a while, but he really couldn't cry!
But everyone thought he was too grieved, so he was dumbfounded...
The news that Xiao Chen was seriously ill as soon as he came back spread throughout the palace instantly. After hearing this, Liu Ruyun didn't even care about her status as a noble concubine, and directly used Qinggong to fly over!
When I came over and saw Xiao Chen in this state, I was really frightened. He cursed all the imperial doctors as useless!
Are you just going to watch him get a fever?
If it continues to burn like this, it will kill someone!
Several imperial doctors explained with a grimace that they didn't dare to treat them randomly. We haven't confirmed the diagnosis yet and we...
Not long after, Queen Murong Danqiu, Imperial Concubine Duanmu Nanqiao, Concubine Zhang Juer, and noble Yang Feng'er all hurriedly arrived. Seeing that Xiao Chen was so ill, they were all dumbfounded.
In front of everyone, they didn't want to get too close, but they were anxious and angrily scolded the doctors for their ineffectiveness!
In the end, Duan Linger felt that the matter was too big, and was afraid that it would not end well later, so she whispered in Xiao Chen's ear, "Hey, brother, it's almost over, I see those ladies are going to cry!"
And the doctors are planning to strip you naked and throw you into the snow to cool down..."
"Oops!" Xiao Chen shouted and woke up instantly, looking at everyone with confused faces, "What's wrong with me?"
The ladies haven't cried yet, but all the doctors have cried. Well, Mr. Xiao, you are awake!
If you don't wake up, the looks of these empresses will cut us into pieces!
He rushed up and pressed his pulse, rolled his eyelids, touched his forehead, and felt his breath.
Haha!
The fever went away immediately!
Sure enough, it was Patriarch Hua Tuo who appeared...
Seeing the queen and several empresses arriving, Xiao Chen was still struggling to get out of bed and kneel down. A group of girls hurriedly stopped us from a distance, shouting, "Please take good care of yourself. Don't move around. You are going to kill us."
Scared to death, you know?
Everyone wanted to stay with him, but no one could stay. They could only drive back to the palace reluctantly. Before going out, they looked at Xiao Chen with all kinds of tenderness, care, longing, passion, and love.
…
It made Xiao Chen feel that even if he was seriously ill and about to die, it would still be worth it!
Duan Linger sent several empresses out on behalf of her brother. Murong Danqiu told her to take good care of Xiao Chen. If there were any changes in his condition, he would notify us immediately. If he needs anything, just come to us...
Liu Ruyun quietly pulled Duan Ling'er aside and asked in a low voice, "Is this guy pretending to be asking you?"
"No!" Duan Linger blinked with an innocent look on her face.
"Hmph, he's as strong as an ox. Why did he suddenly get sick? He must be pretending to be weird and scaring people again! I'm going to be scared to death by him! Tell him for me, tell him to be careful and look back at me.
How to deal with him!" Liu Ruyun said.
Duan Ling'er blinked her big eyes and nodded repeatedly, shaking her head again and again, thinking it was over, brother, you are dead!
When Li Wanjiang heard that Xiao Chen had woken up, a big stone fell in his heart.
Although I deeply suspect that this kid is faking it, he just touched it with his own hands and found that he did have a fever. The imperial doctor reported back that Mr. Xiao's condition was indeed extremely dangerous just now. If we hadn't tried our best to treat him, I'm afraid he would have...
...I just can’t bear to say it anymore.
The commander of the royal guards, the commander of the forbidden army, the palace guards, and the chief eunuch of the twenty-four eunuchs all came to visit, which shows that Xiao Chen's popularity in the palace is still very good.
But Xiao Chen used the excuse that he was still quite unwell and saw no one, so Linger got in the way.
Gong Shouli didn't come, but sent Xiao Fengzi and Xiao Lizi to check whether Xiao Chen was dead.
The Xichang brothers who were guarding the door got angry when they saw these two people. Why the hell do you still have the nerve to come see the boss?
Get out of here now, or I'll beat you half to death!
Now that our boss is back, I see that your new master, that bastard Gong Shouli, is no longer so majestic, right?
However, the two bastards said with a straight face that they came to visit Mr. Xiao Chenxiao on the orders of Eunuch Gong. Our Eunuch Gong followed the orders of the Emperor!
To be honest with you, we just want to see if Xiao Chen is dead?
Who dares to stop it?
Duan Ling'er heard the sound and came out with her hands on her hips angrily, "My brother was asleep just now, no one can disturb him. If you two bastards dare to do anything wrong, believe it or not, I will beat you..."
But I heard Xiao Chen's weak voice in the room, "Let them come in."
"Believe it or not, I'll... open the door and let you in." Duan Linger immediately changed her tune.
Show your little hands and tell me, brothers, please go away. The boss needs to rest now, so don’t just hang around here. Go back and leave a few people on duty to stand guard outside the yard.
Xiao Lizi and Xiao Fengzi walked to Xiao Chen's bed with their heads held high, and suddenly they knelt down together, "Boss, we miss you so much!"
"What the hell, do you two brats miss me or do you want me to die?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Look at what the boss said! Don't you have to act for others to watch? If you don't act well, your boss will curse others! If you do a good job and you still curse others, it doesn't make sense!" Xiao Lizi grinned.
"No boss, are you acting? You just scared the shit out of us both, do you know?" Xiao Fengzi said.
"Hey, boss, are my acting skills good?" Xiao Chen asked the two of them to stand up and sit down to chat.
"Damn it, your acting skills are like a god. Even the emperor was deceived by you, and our master took it seriously, but he was just happy for nothing..." Xiao Lizi said.
"Seriously, boss, when will you take us away? Liu Fuhai has already gone, why don't you let us go!" Xiao Fengzi said.
In fact, these two men did not betray Xiao Chen, but followed Xiao Chen's order and stayed undercover next to Gong Shouli.
Because they 'betrayed' many of Xiao Chen's secrets, they easily gained Gong Shouli's trust. This shows that Gong Shouli's IQ is scum compared to Xiao Chen's.
Not a rival at all.
Moreover, the emperor's favor for Gong Shouli is obviously not as good as before. In the past, he would consult him no matter how big or small the matter was, but now he hardly pays attention to him except for routine matters.
We in the palace all say that Gong Shouli is nothing compared to you, the boss!
Your boss goes through life and death fighting for the emperor outside, but he is in the palace avenging his personal vengeance and eradicating dissidents. Just like what he did to Liu Fuhai last time, the emperor seemed very unhappy...
