"This -" Dr. Xu frowned slightly and said softly, "There is some trouble. The poison the princess had when she was a child and the poison she has now have merged into one, and it has become a new poison that will not be clear for a while.
, but the princess is weak and cannot waste time, nor can she study it in detail, so she can only do her best."
Xuan Jin nodded silently, without saying another word, and quietly watched Dr. Xu diagnose Tong Xiaoye's pulse and prescribe medicine. It was unclear whether he was worried or not worried on his expression.
Send someone to take Dr. Xu back and pick up the prepared medicines from him. Some of the medicines are only available to Dr. Xu in the entire Wumeng Kingdom. He is an idiot when it comes to using medicines.
Tong Xiaoye on the bed was still asleep, his brows slightly furrowed, still trapped in a nightmare.
"Tong Xiaoye, listen carefully." Xuan Jinmo suddenly leaned down and whispered in Tong Xiaoye's ear, "If you dare to die before me, I will let the entire Tong family be buried with you!"
The sleeping Tong Xiaoye did not react at all, his brows were still slightly furrowed and his face was pale.
It wasn't until noon that Tong Xiaoye woke up. The medicine was boiled in silk. There was no taste in Tong Xiaoye's mouth. Although the medicine was very bitter, she couldn't feel the bitter taste and drank it without changing her expression. She didn't even drink some sugar water.
.
"Madam, are you feeling miserable?" Junzi frowned and asked cautiously.
Tong Xiaoye was stunned and said blankly: "I didn't drink it."
Junzi shook his head and said softly: "The master said it was very bitter and asked the slave to prepare extremely sweet water. The lady actually said it was not bitter. However, when the master drank it, his brows wrinkled. The slave thought, it must be extremely sweet.
Bitter.”
Tong Xiaoye asked in confusion: "He's not sick, so why should he drink this extremely bitter medicine?"
"Master said that he is not at ease. He must taste it with his own mouth before letting you drink it." Junzi smiled and said happily, "I thought the master didn't care about his wife, but it turns out he does care about it very much. He will stay here until there is someone in the palace.
When I came to see him in an emergency, I tasted the medicine before leaving."
Tong Xiaoye nodded casually. She would not believe that it was because Xuan Jinmo cared about her. Maybe it was just because he was afraid that something would really happen to her and she would not be able to explain it to the Tong family.
After taking the medicine, Tong Xiaoye felt that she didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore. She asked Juanzi to find a book for her to read. She leaned on the soft couch and read for a while. Feeling a little tired, she leaned on the soft pillow and closed her eyes to rest. She listened vaguely.
The sound of someone coming in was accompanied by a chill.
Xuan Jinmo walked in from the outside. The road was extremely slippery and he walked very slowly. It took him a long time to go back and forth. He was worried about Tong Xiaoye's situation, so he took the official business directly to the mansion to deal with it. He went to the meeting hall to change things.
I got my casual clothes and hurried over.
In the courtyard, I came across Juuzi who was being cleaned. He said that Madam was reading a book just now. She seemed to be better than yesterday. Although she still didn't eat, she was able to read for a while. She left the bed and took a rest on the soft couch.
When he entered the door, he saw Tong Xiaoye lying on his side on the soft couch, with his black hair almost hanging to the ground. He was dressed in crimson clothes, which made his skin even paler. His brows were still frowning. The book in his hand was casually placed aside, and his breath was coming.
Still even.
The temperature in the room is very comfortable, and the fire in the stove has a warm color.
"Do you think your illness is too mild?" Xuan Jinmo took Tong Xiaoye's quilt from the bed and covered her with it, and said indifferently, "I don't think you can attract my attention like this."
Tong Xiaoye heard the footsteps that were different from those of Junzi, so she knew who it was without having to guess. If it was an outsider, Junzi would definitely stop him or notify him. There was only one person who entered this place without her permission, and she didn't even open her eyes as she listened to his cold ridicule.
, just sighed lightly.
A slightly cold hand fell on her forehead, then left, and said calmly: "It's indeed better. Dr. Xu does have some abilities. Let him live a little longer."
Tong Xiaoye sighed in his heart and still did not speak.
Listening to the footsteps of Xuan Jinmo turning and leaving, Tong Xiaoye's voice suddenly sounded softly, very gentle, and seemed to be hesitant, "Xuan Jinmo, can you do me a favor?"
Xuan Jinmo paused slightly, and after a while he slowly said: "If anything happens, I can ask the slave to come in and take care of you."
Tong Xiaoye sighed lightly and said tiredly: "That's all, she can't help with this. I'm tired, so I won't see you off. If nothing happens, please don't come over again, okay?"
"
Xuan Jinmo said indifferently: "When and how should I obey your arrangements?"
"It's not an arrangement." Tong Xiaoye's tone sounded even more tired, almost talking to himself, "It's just that you have to make Xiaoye forget you and forget his love for you, so that Xiaoye can stay, always harboring illusions.
, will only make things more difficult for each other."
Xuan Jin silently didn't look back and said coldly: "This is your business and has nothing to do with me!"
With that said, the footsteps quickly disappeared outside the door. Tong Xiaoye sighed and closed his eyes. This was fine. Indifference would make him forget his love for him faster. If he didn't care, the damage would be lighter.
After all, she was reluctant to leave. Even if it was just a false identity, just the wife of Prince Xuan Xuan Jinmo as others said, she felt that at least he was still there.
At night, Tong Xiaoye asked Junzi to prepare hot water. She felt that her physical condition was better and wanted to take a hot bath to warm her limbs. The room was extremely warm, so she buried her whole body in the tub.
Close your eyes and let yourself slowly relax in the heat.
Suddenly, Junzi barged in from outside and said in a panic: "Madam, something happened, something big happened! -"
Tong Xiaoyerang was startled and felt like he was almost suffocating. He stared at Junzi blankly for a long time before he said angrily: "Junzi, you want to scare me to death, don't you?"
"No, this slave is -" Junzi then remembered that she had barged in suddenly, and did not even shout outside to get Tong Xiaoye's permission, but the panic made her brain go blank, and she said bluntly, "Master just said
I rushed to General Tong’s Mansion, and I heard that the master’s sister, your sister-in-law, committed suicide!”
Tong Xiaoye's chest felt tight, and she almost lost her breath. She stood up from the tub, but her legs were weak. Before she could stand still, she suddenly sat down in the water. Her heart was beating as if it was about to jump out of her chest at any time.
He stared blankly at Junzi and didn't say a word for a long time.
"Prepare the carriage for me right away!" After a long while, Tong Xiaoye said through gritted teeth.
Junzi said with a pale face: "Master said, if you dare to leave here for even half a step, he will kill the slave immediately! And, more..."
"What else?" Tong Xiaoye held the edge of the wooden basin and sat up from the basin, then gritted his teeth and stood up, took the clothes on one side and put them on his body, and said forcefully.
Junzi's expression changed and she said softly: "Master said that if you leave this place even half a step, he will kill the slave and destroy the entire Tong family at the same time!"
