As soon as Xue Poye stepped into Xiao Suzhen's boudoir, a delicate fragrance hit her nostrils, which was extremely elegant.
The room is not very big. It is the same as the overall layout of Xiao Mansion. It is simple and elegant, clean and tidy. The first thing that catches the eye is the pink Xiangluan bed, neon gauze, and fragrant clouds. Next to the window is an exquisite dressing table. The one in the west corner
The table is covered with books, and there are two pictures hanging on the wall, one is "Picture of Peony and Swallow Fragrance" and the other is "Picture of Mingyue Mountain". Both pictures have inscriptions on them. They are too far away, even Xue Poye can see them.
I don't know what is written on it.
In addition, there are two incense cabinets, which are against the inner wall and carved with nanmu, giving them an antique look.
Next to the west window, on a bench, Xiao Suzhen is sitting on it, holding a book in her hand, looking through it carefully. Compared with before, she looks much more haggard, and her face is not as white and red as before.
, rather pale in color.
The banana trees outside the window are green and swaying in the wind, reflecting Xiao Suzhen's incomparable beauty.
Xue Poye was a little excited and almost shouted out. Fortunately, Liu Tuo had already said: "Junior sister, are you feeling better?"
Xiao Suzhen turned her head, smiled slightly, was elegant and refined, and said softly: "I just have no strength and am a little tired. I'm sorry, brother."
Looking at Xiao Suzhen's thin appearance, Xue Poye sighed in his heart. He finally saw the beauty he had worried about day and night. He was slightly relieved when he saw that she was not bedridden as he imagined.
Liu Tuo said warmly: "If you feel unwell, you should rest more. There are so many books in the world that you can't read them all in one time."
Xiao Suzhen chuckled and said: "There are just too many, so I have to seize every moment to see them." Yingying stood up, glanced at Mingxu, said a blessing, and said softly: "Senior Lao Putuo, how grateful is Suzhen?
All."
She is elegant and generous, elegant, noble in temperament, and makes people feel extremely comfortable.
Xue Poye knew that under this beautiful and beautiful body, there was a strong heart, which was not comparable to that of ordinary women. A beautiful person and a beautiful heart were even more beautiful. This was the real Xiao Suzhen.
Mingxu nodded slightly and did not speak.
Xiao Suzhen turned her gaze to Xue Poye. She was not as surprised as ordinary people. She still smiled and said softly: "These clothes are a bit strange. Is it a characteristic of southern Xinjiang?" She raised her head with big watery eyes.
When Xue Poye's eyes met, the pretty face suddenly changed color, she let out a soft "Ah" and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hands.
Xue Poye was stunned and thought to himself: "Did she recognize me?" However, even Xiao Moting and Liu Tuo couldn't tell the difference between her and Xiao Suzhen.
Others thought Xiao Suzhen was afraid of Xue Poye's appearance, but Liu Tuo had already said: "Junior sister, this is Liulizi, a disciple of Senior Putuo, and he is also an outstanding person."
Xiao Suzhen lowered her head and murmured: "Liu... Liulizi?"
At this time Hanxiang had already served tea, Mingxu waved his hand and said: "Without further delay, Xiao...Miss Xiao, can I take your pulse first?"
Xiao Suzhen nodded and said: "Thank you!" and sat down at the table.
Mingxu said calmly: "Master Liu, please step aside."
Liu Tuo frowned, pondered for a moment, and said softly: "Then please ask Senior Putuo to show his skill. Liu Tuo will wait for the good news outside." When he walked to the door, he turned back and added: "I hope Senior Putuo will make a detailed diagnosis."
Then he went out.
Hanxiang closed the door and waited beside Xiao Suzhen.
Mingxu also sat down at the table and ordered: "Liu Lizi, bring me my medicine box."
Xue Poye looked at Xiao Suzhen's pale pink face and didn't understand for a moment, so he couldn't help asking: "What?"
As soon as he spoke, the fragrance was nothing. Xiao Suzhen's delicate body trembled, she raised her head and stared at Xue Poye's face again, and there was a hint of surprise on her face.
Mingxu immediately cursed: "Stupid idiot, I asked you to bring my medicine box."
Xue Poye was surprised when he saw Xiao Suzhen's delicate body trembling slightly: "It seems she heard my voice." But he was not sure. He glanced at Mingxu and sneered in his heart: "You monk, pretend to be me first.
I'll look back and see how to deal with you." I thought about what he said about "medicine box", and after thinking for a moment, he turned around and came to the big wooden box.
There are two boxes in the big wooden box, one copper and one iron. The iron box contains cosmetic tools. The copper box is presumably what Mingxu calls the "medicine box".
The big wooden box was only tied with an iron wire at this time. Xue Poye opened it, took out the copper box, and carried it over.
Xiao Suzhen looked at Xue Poye from time to time, her beautiful eyes showing a hint of doubt. She obviously suspected that this ugly guy was Xue Poye, but the face was so different that she couldn't be sure.
Mingxu opened the copper box, and Xue Poye glanced slightly and saw that there were also a lot of things in the copper box, which were always medical tools.
Mingxu said slowly: "Miss Xiao, please extend your arms!"
Xiao Suzhen placed her right hand on the table. Her small hand was pink and white, and her skin was fragrant.
Mingxu first took out a clean white silk handkerchief from the copper box and gently covered Xiao Suzhen's wrist.
Xue Poye understood that this was to prevent skin contact, so he felt his pulse through a gauze.
In this era, it was natural that men and women should not be intimate with each other. Ordinary people's daughters were not allowed to have skin-to-skin contact with the opposite sex before they were married, and it was inconvenient for them to appear in public, let alone the rich ladies of the wealthy families.
Normally, Xiao Suzhen's boudoir would not allow men except family members to enter even half a step. However, now that she is seriously ill, in order to diagnose and treat the stubborn illness, she acted urgently. Although the doctor is allowed to enter the room, skin contact is not allowed.
If it were a brilliant but unparalleled miracle doctor, he would probably feel the pulse with a thread hanging over it, but usually, the wrist would be covered with gauze and the pulse would be felt across the gauze.
In ancient times, etiquette was very strict. If a man and a woman had skin-to-skin contact, they would most likely grow old together. As for Xue Poye kissing Yue Zhu, in Yue Zhu's heart, Xue Poye was already his man.
Of course, the children of Jianghu have other plans. They are very passionate and don't stick to trivial matters.
Mingxu stretched out a finger and gently placed it on Xiao Suzhen's wrist, closed his eyes, and felt his pulse carefully.
Xiao Suzhen seemed a little nervous and didn't care to identify whether the ugly guy next to her was Xue Poye. She frowned slightly and looked at the fingers on her wrist.
Xue Poye looked at Xiao Suzhen and then at Mingxu, who was serious, and saw that he was extremely calm. In just a moment, he clearly saw the corners of Mingxu's eyes twitching twice.
Finally, Mingxu retracted his hand, frowned, and opened his eyes.
Xue Poye felt anxious when he saw that Mingxu didn't seem to be confident either. Could it be that even Mingxu couldn't see Xiao Suzhen's condition?
Mingxu told Hanxiang, "Please pour me a glass of water and get an empty glass."
Hanxiang saw Mingxu's instructions and hurried over to pour a glass of water and put it on the table.
Mingxu looked at Xiao Suzhen and said softly: "Miss Xiao, take a sip of water, don't put it in your stomach, spit it into an empty cup immediately."
Xiao Suzhen frowned, but finally followed Mingxu's instructions and took a sip of water. Then she covered her mouth with her hand and spit it into the empty cup. The remaining water she spit out was still as clear as the water she had just poured out.
Same.
Xue Poye was also very strange and didn't know what monk Mingxu was up to.
Mingxu reached for the cup and looked inside. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing an elusive smile. It flashed by, and he seemed confident.
Xue Poye naturally saw it in his expression, saying that he had seen the cause of the disease and his tense heart had relaxed slightly.
Mingxu stood up and said, "Miss Xiao, you can rest now. Sorry to bother you." He ordered, "Liu Lizi, let's go out first."
Xiao Suzhen's charming face was a little confused, but she still stood up and said with a smile: "Senior Laputuo is here." He looked at Xue Poye again and smiled slightly.
Xue Poye didn't know whether Mingxu had seen the way or not. He was about to leave in a moment. He also heard that medical skills emphasize "looking, hearing, asking, and understanding."
Then he went up to collect the copper box, put it into the wooden box, and carried it on his back.
Mingxu still regained his composure and went straight out.
Xue Poye looked back at Xiao Suzhen, hesitated to speak, and finally nodded with a smile and went out, but with his appearance, his smile was extremely ugly.
Xiao Suzhen watched Xue Poye go out and sighed softly. After Hanxiang closed the door tightly, she asked in a low voice: "Hanxiang, is it him?"
Hanxiang asked in confusion: "Miss, who is it?"
Xiao Suzhen shook her head, looked at Basho outside the window, and said quietly: "If it wasn't him, why would he be here? There are many people with the same voice in the world. But...but why are his eyes so familiar...!"
Hanxiang was at a loss and didn't know if the young lady was sick or stupid.dd
