When Jiang Huan woke up, she was already in the small residence.
There were many dirty gauze scattered around, with some solidified blood stains densely printed on them.
Seeing the blood stains, Jiang Huan couldn't help but hold his forehead slightly. When he was about to see who was injured, he raised his eyes and saw that the back of his hand was tightly bandaged.
Not only the back of his hands, but also his exposed arms were wrapped in layers of gauze.
Jiang Huan himself couldn't remember exactly where he got so many wounds.
He hadn't noticed it before, but now that he saw it, he felt a dull pain in his arm. The painful feeling came to his heart, and Jiang Huan couldn't help but frown slightly in pain.
"Are you awake?" Chen Ruyi's voice sounded from beside her.
Jiang Huan subconsciously looked sideways and realized that Chen Ruyi had been lying beside her bed.
He looked like he hadn't slept all night, his face looked tired and his eyes were blue and purple.
Jiang Huan looked at his appearance, and the words of concern came to her lips, but they were swallowed alive.
She thought for a moment and then said calmly, "Did I faint?"
"You went to the swamp and were poisoned by the methane gas. When I found you, you were already unconscious," Chen Ruyi said.
But Jiang Huan clearly remembered that someone held her hand before she fell into coma, and that person must be Chen Ruyi.
Although he could no longer clearly see the scene in front of him and his vision was hazy, Jiang Huan was still certain that Chen Ruyi was not in a wheelchair when he came to save him.
He was running, rushing towards him.
"Is your leg okay?" Jiang Huan asked involuntarily.
Her eyes fell on Chen Ruyi's legs. Chen Ruyi was not sitting in a wheelchair at the moment, but was just kneeling on the ground.
From this posture, Jiang Huan couldn't tell if there was anything strange about his legs, and could only vaguely judge that his current situation was probably fine.
Seeing that he was fine, Jiang Huan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the ice bed conditioning that Chen Ruyi used before could temporarily restore his legs, the consequences of this were extremely terrible.
If he is a little careless, it is possible that Chen Ruyi will never be able to stand up again in this life.
Jiang Huan didn't want to see such a scene.
"My legs are fine." Chen Ruyi said calmly, "The effect of the ice bed can last for a while. I won't have to sit in a wheelchair in the past few days."
Jiang Huan had never thought that the ice bed was so curative and could play such a role.
In order to let Jiang Huan see clearly that her legs were fine, Chen Ruyi stood up and took two steps.
Chen Ruyi walked without any difficulty, just like ordinary people.
It seems that he endured the pain of such an ice bed to recuperate, and there are traces to follow.
"Since this ice bed can solve your leg problem, I feel relieved." Jiang Huan said lightly.
But in the next moment, Chen Ruyi shook his head vigorously. The prince who was cold and taciturn in the eyes of the people now blushed and stuttered, "That's not what I meant. If you want to treat leg diseases, I still
I want Xiao Xiaohuan to help me..."
Chen Ruyi's hemming and hawing look didn't make him look like a current prince, he was just a child who was afraid that Jiang Huan would ignore him in the future.
Jiang Huan looked at his appearance and thought of Qiu Xingjian and Wang You again. He had so many mixed feelings in his heart that he was speechless.
No, none of this should be like this.
Jiang Huan understood the truth, but couldn't explain it.
"Are you thinking why I want to use you as bait?" Chen Ruyi asked abruptly.
Jiang Huan's heart, which had been calmed down by this sound, started to become noisy again. It was so noisy that it made her ears hurt.
Jiang Huan couldn't help but cover her chest and wanted to take a few steps back.
But Chen Ruyi came up to her and held her hands solemnly.
This familiar touch convinced Jiang Huan that the person who rescued him from the swamp was indeed Chen Ruyi and not someone else.
"This is something I did not do well. If you want to blame me or hate me for this, I won't say anything. I'm just marrying Xiaohuan. When I return to Jiangnan on this trip, I have one more thing to tell you." Chen Ruyi
Righteous way.
He let go of Jiang Huan's hand and took out a token from his sleeve.
The lines on this token are not from Jiangnan or Kyoto, they are feathered.
"Have you borrowed soldiers?" Jiang Huan asked with a surprised look on his face.
If we can borrow soldiers, then there will be a solution to the floods in the south of the Yangtze River.
Jiang Huan didn't care to think about all the worries he had before, and hurriedly asked, "How much did you borrow? Can it solve this flood problem?"
Seeing Jiang Huan's nervous look, Chen Ruyi couldn't help but curl her lips, and the expression in her eyes became much gentler, "Borrowing 10,000 people is enough to repair the pipeline. And I
I have thought about it, built a few more pipelines, and added a mechanism that only I can know at the entrance of each pipeline to completely block the entrances of these drainage pipelines." Chen Ruyi said softly.
Although he said it lightly, Jiang Huan knew that it would not be easy to do this.
And it should be something that is extremely grueling and exhausting.
Chen Ruyi wanted to accomplish this, and it took a lot of effort.
"I never thought that you were so caring for the people of Jiangnan." Chen Ruyi smiled softly, but Jiang Huan felt a little guilty when she looked at him with those bright eyes.
But very quickly, this feeling of guilt was completely drowned by Chen Ruyi's unwillingness to use herself as bait.
"You mean, these people are not my people, so I don't need to take care of them? Indeed, these people are your people, and I am not from the Chen Kingdom, so you have never hesitated to use me as bait.
"
After saying that, Jiang Huan stood up and wanted to leave.
But the next moment, she was held down by Chen Ruyi.
Chen Ruyi's gentle and affectionate look had disappeared, and now he was only left with endless indifference. Jiang Huan felt a chill go down his spine, and he felt that Chen Ruyi in front of him felt strange.
It was so strange that Jiang Huan, a stranger, couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
"What are you doing..." Jiang Huan struggled to free his hands.
But Chen Ruyi suddenly lifted Jiang Huan's hands above her head with one hand, and quickly held her slender waist with the other hand.
Before Jiang Huan finished speaking the rest of the words, she only felt a warm and soft touch passing over her lips.
A dragonfly flitted across the water, but it remained etched in Jiang Huan's heart for a long time.
Her eyes widened in shock, and her head instantly went blank.
