Chapter 21
That day, Zhao Sui's words were gloomy, and Shen Ci memorized them for several days, but it was rare that he didn't have those strange dreams.
As autumn is approaching, the house is much cooler. Originally, the room was empty and simple, but because Shen Ci and Zhao Sui moved in, the house felt a little more warm.
The wooden window was wide open, and Shen Ci was wearing a peach-pink dress with delicate and beautiful peach petals on the cuffs, which were wrapped around the sleeves one after another and looked extremely beautiful.
After the first half-day of Shen Porcelain Medicinal Bath, I lay down on the beauty's couch in the afternoon, holding the painting book in my hand, watching it with relish, full of satisfaction.
Zhao Sui looked at her with a light smile, and her eyes were full of tender affection, but she didn't look at anyone for a while. The girl who was fiddling with the beads on her wrist was already asleep.
The breeze was refreshing, and the room was still a little cold. He got up and took a thin blanket and gently covered it.
Zhao Sui knelt down on one knee and squatted in front of the couch, looking carefully at the girl sleeping on the bed, her face suddenly solemn.
For some reason, since the last time he vomited blood in the medicinal bath, he always felt that Shen Ci's body became lighter and thinner, and his face was not as rosy as before.
He squeezed the soft white hand in the palm, and lightly placed it under the teeth to lightly grind it.
Xu was the itch that disturbed the sleeping person, and the girl murmured softly, causing Zhao Sui to stop the movement of her hand.
Shen Ci didn't wake up, just flipped the position a little, the silence of the room only left the crisp silver bell at her ankle.
"Your Highness."
Zhao Sui raised his head suddenly, his eyes were sharp with killing intent, and when he saw that it was Xiyue with a medicine box, he narrowed his eyes: "What's the matter?" The
man's indifferent attitude made Xiyue feel a little embarrassed "I heard that the princess was ill a few days ago, so I came here to check the princess's pulse today."
"Isn't it a matter of morning?" Zhao Sui patted the girl's back with gentle movements. He lowered his voice and asked: "Why did you only come here at this hour today?"
"I..."
Xiyue was choked up, she was about to speak, she couldn't say that she came to see him on purpose.
She felt aggrieved, she knew that Zhao Sui was busy and could not see his people all day long. He only came back at night every day, and she was too embarrassed to come to disturb her.
In the past few days, I heard that Shen Ci vomited blood in the bathtub. Zhao Sui actually accompanied people in the medicinal bath every day, and waited until Shen Ci came out safe and sound before leaving.
Thinking that she hadn't seen him for a long time, she was worried, and because of her face, she didn't dare to come, so she found a reason to come here.
"In the past...the past two days, the people saw that the princess' body was a little weak, so she deliberately looked for some other recipes, and wanted to take a closer look at the princess, but there were some hidden illnesses."
She looked at the man, her words earnestly, and her eyebrows Compassionate.
She naturally knew that what Zhao Sui cared about the most was Shen Ci, a woman. If she said openly to come to see him, she would definitely be rejected by him.
Zhao Sui really moved, he lowered his voice: "Come here." He looked at Shen Ci, who was sleeping soundly, and seemed a little worried: "Be gentle, don't wake her up." The
little girl's spirits these days I'm a little sluggish, I don't like to play like a few days ago, I finally fell asleep, but I have to be more careful.
"The people's daughter obeys the order." Xiyue Xiaobu
stepped forward and looked at the pale Shen Ci on the bed, her red lips hooked coldly.
Although the pulse is checked every day, and the medicine is not stopped, Shen Ci's body is not getting better.
If she guessed correctly, Shen Ci must have been drunk with beauty.
Previously, she was just a test, and she sprinkled some purple gold orchid powder in the medicinal bath. Sure enough, this Shen Ci's body was not as good as before.
Xiyue sensed the man's probing gaze, and naturally drew out the silver needle. She took Shen Ci's hand, plucked it down and pulled it out skillfully.
Zhao Sui's heart tightened, and she was relieved when she saw that Shen Ci was still awake, only to see Xiyue wipe the blood drop from the fingertips with a handkerchief.
The blood stains are smudged, like plum blossoms in full bloom, a little dark red but with some strange charm blue.
Xiyue took back the veil unintentionally and cleaned it up: "My lord, the princess's body is fine, but now I'm just a little depressed. I guess there is something on my mind."
Zhao Sui raised her eyebrows, doubting her words, but again I have to believe that Shen Ci does seem to have something on her mind these days.
"Well, I see."
Xiyue nodded, tucked the handkerchief into her sleeve, and left with her things.
At the corner, Xiyue's footsteps paused slightly, and the man was still standing in front of the couch with a distressed expression in the corner of the light. She smiled, her eyes sullen.
