Another lamp from the house was lit, more people came, and a soft sedan was carried in.
"Meet Madam."
In the outer hall, Doctor Li saluted with some excitement through the curtain.
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded in return.
"...Thank you, Master..." Doctor Li suddenly saluted again.
This time Cheng Jiaoniang avoided it.
"Madam, when Mrs. Chen was treating patients, you asked me to observe acupuncture... It was all thanks to what I learned at that time that I was able to save the prince's life this time..." Dr. Li said excitedly, "No, that's why.
, it was my lady who saved His Highness’s life again….”
Someone nearby coughed heavily.
"It's getting late, Mr. Li, let's talk about old times some other time." Mr. Gu said with a frown.
Yes, yes, today is my wedding, and I have been tired for another day. Dr. Li rubbed his hands together and straightened his expression.
"It's like this." He said, "His Highness suddenly felt a little unwell..."
After hearing this, Banqin, who had just stood up in the room, felt his legs and feet become weak again, and his hand holding the maid began to shake.
There was a sudden sound on the curtain, and Banqin's hand was empty, and he saw that the maid had already followed quickly.
The people outside were also surprised. They didn't expect Cheng Jiaoniang to come out like this. Several staff members hurriedly lowered their heads to avoid it, complaining in their hearts. This woman had already changed into a homely dress, and her hair had been let down. It was really...
Doctor Li did not shy away from this, and led her to stand in front of the carriage. The maid hurriedly held up the lamp and followed her.
Prince Jin'an, who was wrapped in a cloak in the summer, looked a little stiff. He closed his eyes and didn't know whether he was sleeping or awake.
Cheng Jiaoniang took a closer look and stood up straight.
"It's okay," she said.
Doctor Li's face looked a little embarrassed.
"I know it's not bad, but I'm still a little worried..." he said, "I didn't even take any medicine at night..."
"You are not fooling around!" Mr. Gu couldn't help but said angrily.
The so-called nonsense means coming out to worship in person.
The maid couldn't help but glance at the King of Jin'an County, and heard Mr. Gu's voice getting louder and louder.
"... He can't get out of bed all the time. It's better for you to let him stand for so long and walk such a long way..."
So that's it. I heard people say that people who lie in bed for too long can't walk much when they get out of bed, and they have to walk slowly. Then Prince Jin'an can't even get up, and he suddenly walks for so long.
…
No wonder even a chambermaid couldn't help him up after drinking a glass of wine in his new house.
"... Doctor Li, I never thought you would be like this and learn to collude with them to take me away..."
"...Don't you care about His Highness's body just to respect your master?"
The more Mr. Gu talked, the angrier he became, and he raised his head and walked around the room without caring about any rudeness.
"...Is this worship hall so important? Without this worship hall, what would happen?"
The chamberlain and Dr. Li had done something wrong and kept their heads down without speaking. Only Mr. Gu's voice echoed in the room.
"If you want to say it, tell it."
A female voice suddenly sounded.
Mr. Gu's voice stopped suddenly.
"I'm going to rest." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
He was a staff member, a guest, not a slave, yet she drove him away so unceremoniously!
Mr. Gu's face turned red and white.
Doctor Li couldn't help but laugh.
He had already learned how this woman could be rude.
"It was my negligence and mistake," he said to smooth things over, "that made the prince behave like this, so I asked my wife to take care of your highness for one night, so that we can feel at ease."
Cheng Jiaoniang hummed.
The people in the room were stunned for a moment.
"Then help His Highness in quickly." The chamberlain was the first to react and said.
Only then did the room become lively. Several maids opened the curtains, and four servants helped Prince Jin'an.
"Hurry up and make the bed." The maid came in and saw that Banqin was still a little dazed, so she hurriedly urged her and hurried over.
Only then did Banqin come back to her senses. She hurriedly picked up the pillows on the floor and arranged the bedding together with the maid.
Prince Jin'an was still wearing his wedding clothes, and he had to take them off in a hurry. After all this, two more lights were lit in the room, and it was already dark outside the window.
"Madam, do you think it's enough to leave two people on night duty?" the chamberlain asked carefully and respectfully.
"No need." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
"My wife... Madam." The maid hurriedly came out and said, "Madam is not used to having someone waiting on you at night. Father-in-law, please take someone to rest."
Mr. Gu, who wanted to leave but couldn't let go of Prince Jin'an, couldn't bear it anymore after hearing this.
"How did that happen? Your Highness is like this now..." he said.
"Is it okay now that you guys are here to serve me?" Cheng Jiaoniang's voice came from inside.
Doctor Li lowered his head to hold back his laughter, and reached out to hold Mr. Gu, who was looking livid with anger.
"Let's go, let's go." He whispered, "Mr. Gu, you don't know, this lady never allows anyone to see her in front of her when she diagnoses a disease."
"Yes, Mrs. Cheng alone is better than ten of us." The chambermaid also said with a sigh of relief.
Standing under the porch, Mr. Gu's face turned red as reflected by the red lantern.
"You are very relieved." He said with a glare.
The chamberlain looked at the courtyard and sighed softly.
"Sir, sometimes one has to accept one's fate," he said.
Accept your fate?
"Whether she is trustworthy or not, it all depends on His Highness." The chamberlain said softly, walking down the steps with his hands lowered and his head lowered.
What a mess!
How could something that was obviously preventable and avoidable become fatal?
Mr. Gu frowned.
"Don't worry, sir." Doctor Li said, walking past Mr. Gu, "If she can't be trusted, no one in this world can be trusted."
Mr. Gu frowned and looked at the maids and maids who were filing out, and then at the two doctors Li who had already reached the entrance of the hospital, and had no choice but to follow them.
"You'd better not lie to me a second time!" He gritted his teeth and said.
After saying these words, the shoulders of Dr. Li and the chamberlain in front seemed to shrink, and they quickly quickened their pace.
The maid stretched out her hand to extinguish the two lamps and looked at Cheng Jiaoniang, who was sitting in front of the table and had resumed reading.
"Ma'am, do you want some tea?" she asked.
"No need." Cheng Jiaoniang said, put down the book and thought for a moment, "Let's light some incense."
The maid was stunned for a moment.
"Did the lady make that box of incense herself?" Banqin asked.
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded.
Banqin hurriedly looked for it.
"Madam, did you make some incense?" The maid went to help.
After rummaging through the boxes in Toji's room for a moment, Banqin happily took out a small box.
"Yes, during the days when Mr. Shiro was away, I did a little bit every day," she said.
The maid is not often at home, so naturally she doesn't know these things, so she sighed after hearing this.
"This fragrance must be very good."
Watching the incense being lit, the maid said with a smile.
Cheng Jiaoniang shook her head.
"It's not good," she said.
"My wife must have done an excellent job," the maid said.
Cheng Jiaoniang smiled.
"That's true, I did a good job." She said, looking at the two of them and nodding, "You go and have a rest."
The maid and Banqin nodded.
"Madam, we'll be outside," they said.
Quietness returned to the room. Cheng Jiaoniang put down the book after reading the last word. The chatter of the girls outside had fallen silent, and a slight snoring could gradually be heard.
The worry that had been raised for a long time was finally put down, and the two girls fell into a deep sleep next to the pillows.
Cheng Jiaoniang turned around and looked at the couch.
The man on the couch also fell asleep quietly.
She walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the young man whose face was covered by the shadows on the couch.
"Do you want to drink some water?" she asked.
Prince Jin'an's eyelashes fluttered twice and he slowly opened his eyes.
"I..." He looked at Cheng Jiaoniang, his eyes seemed a little confused, "You..."
He didn't speak anymore. He seemed to have understood where he was and what was going on. He shook his head on the pillow.
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded, turned around and turned off the light without saying anything.
The room fell into darkness, but Prince Jin'an still clearly saw the woman sitting down next to him, putting down the curtain, pulling another thin quilt over her body, and lying down.
In summer, the closeness, almost arm-to-arm distance, brings a sense of warmth, soft and fragrant.
Prince Jin'an opened his eyes and looked at the tent ceiling.
It seems that when I was sitting on the bed in the evening, I suddenly saw something like a sachet hanging on the ceiling, or maybe it had been taken down. Originally there were some dried fruits scattered on the bed, but now that I lay down, I didn't get hit, but felt soft.
’ s... He put down the tent softly again, it must be very hot in the room... I have put a few basins of ice... are they enough...
A hand suddenly touched his body.
Prince Jin'an suddenly froze, and his mind went blank.
The hand was raised again, seemed to hesitate for a moment, then dropped, then raised again, then dropped again...
The prince of Jin'an County suddenly came to his senses, this seemed to be...
"Go to sleep." A female voice said in my ear.
The hands on his body were retracted.
Prince Jin'an felt like he was sweating.
The people around him turned slightly and faced outward, and the sound of even breathing could be heard.
"Cheng Fang."
Prince Jin'an couldn't help shouting.
Cheng Jiaoniang hummed.
"I..." Prince Jin'an said, "I feel a little uncomfortable."
The person whose back was turned to him did not turn around.
"There's no such thing as not being uncomfortable." She said calmly.
……………………………….
Banqin vaguely heard voices coming from inside. She wanted to open her eyes but couldn't.
"...There's no way this kind of thing can be uncomfortable..."
What's up?
Did something happen?
Wake up quickly, wake up quickly.
Banqin opened her eyes hard, and her eyes were filled with darkness. She couldn't help but gasp for air.
There was a rustling sound coming from the inner room, and it was particularly clear in the silence of everything in the dark night.
Banqin thought of what he had heard before and sat up immediately.
Not a dream!
The maid was brought to consciousness by her, and she was a little dazed.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"It looks like..." Banqin looked into the inner room and whispered.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a low cry coming from within.
"pain!"
Banqin and the maidservant were smart, Banqin was about to get out of bed, and the maidservant sat up.
"...I told you, this kind of thing can't be uncomfortable...just bear with it..."
Another low voice came.
The voices in the inner room disappeared, leaving only a faint hum.
The maid stiffened, as if she had thought of something.
No way...
Although she still doubted it, the maid reached out to hold Banqin without hesitation.
Banqin had already raised his feet to take a step, but was suddenly pulled and staggered.
"Sister?" she asked in a low voice, confused.
The maid held her tight and refused to let go.
"It's okay, it's okay, come back and lie down to sleep." She said in a low voice.
Banqin was a little suspicious.
"The movement inside there..." she whispered.
The movement inside... It must be the movement that happens on a wedding night...
I once secretly listened to the elderly women chatting and joking in private while avoiding others. It was said that it would be very painful that night...
The maid's cheeks burned red and she whispered into Banqin's ear.
Banqin suddenly turned red.
"No, no, it's impossible." She stammered and whispered.
Didn't Prince Jin'an say he was in poor health when he was sent here? Why, why would something like that happen?
"I didn't expect that I would come to worship in person." The maidservant said in a low voice.
Yes, there are so many unexpected things today, then, then this bridal chamber...
"The lady didn't call anyone, just leave it alone." The maid whispered, lying down, hesitatingly reaching out and pulling the quilt to cover her head.
Seeing her like this, Banqin's face turned red and her ears felt hot. She wanted to listen but didn't dare, so she simply climbed into bed and closed her eyes and fell asleep hard.
The night was dark, and there seemed to be sounds in my ears and it seemed very quiet. Amidst the chaotic thoughts, the room gradually became quiet.
