Fast Transmigration: Non-Toxic and No Heroine

Chapter 26 The Empress Dowager (6)

Chapter 26

Seeing Li Jing's insincere words, Xia Houqi chuckled.

She looked at him silently.

Only then did he put away his smiling face, and looked at her with concern: "There are no maids here, just make do with it first, and I will order someone to find some smart little girls for you."

"No need, I don't like serving maids very much." As soon as she finished her sentence, she felt his teasing, and added quietly, "Of course, if you arrange a well-built hidden guard for me, I will be happier of."

Xia Houqi's face turned dark instantly.

Tuanzi was already laughing in the air: "Hahaha——Jingjing, you can actually joke! And even asked for a fit man in front of a disabled person, are you sure you don't want to piss him off? Haha——"

Only then did Li Jing aim at his legs belatedly.

Seeing her eyes, Xia Houqi smiled instead of anger: "Xiaoxue is disliking my body for being unfit? Indeed, I am a useless person, neither healthy nor beautiful..."

"I'm joking," Li Jing rubbed her nose in embarrassment, "By the way, I want to go to the hot spring, can you ask someone to guard the entrance for me?"

"it is good."

……

Li Jing was soaking in the hot spring comfortably, but she didn't know that the person guarding her was Xia Houshen. She couldn't help but curl her lips when she saw the dumpling playing happily in the water.

Fortunately, the night was quiet and there was no one else.

Although other people can't see the dumplings, but seeing the water droplets rising out of thin air, I'm afraid it will feel very weird.

When she had enjoyed enough, as soon as she went out, she saw Xia Houqi silently waiting at the entrance, half of his silver mask was emitting a faint light under the moonlight.

She slowed down her pace, but her eyes were shaking a little. Why is he wearing a mask?I only heard that his legs were disabled, but I didn't hear that he was disfigured, and the mask was not mentioned in the original plot.

She walked up to him and pushed the wheelchair automatically.

He didn't say anything, just let her move.

After returning to the courtyard, he said: "You should rest early, we will leave for the imperial city tomorrow."

"Okay." She let go of her hand and obediently went back to the room.

Lying on the bed, Li Jing couldn't fall asleep anyway. She pursed her lips and looked at the dumpling rolling around on the bed. She wanted to say something, but she closed her eyes when she saw its data-flowing eyes.

It may be because the vision is turned off, but the hearing is more sensitive, especially in the dead of night when she is awake and sleepy.

There seemed to be a faint sound coming from the next door, and she suddenly opened her eyes when she heard a "touch—" sound.

The dumpling was floating in front of her eyes: "Did you hear that too?"

Li Jing responded lightly, turned over and got out of bed, casually put on a robe, opened the door and walked out.

Stopping outside Xia Houqi's room door, she reached out and knocked on the door.

"Don't come in."

His low voice seemed to be filled with unbearable pain.

"What's wrong with you?" She withdrew her hand knocking on the door and looked around. Although she didn't see it, there must be hidden guards nearby. How could they turn a blind eye?Could it be... His own order?

"No, it's okay, you go back and rest."

fine?This depressed voice doesn't look like it's okay, does it?
Li Jing is not a meddlesome person. It stands to reason that he has said so. She should go back to her room to sleep. However, for some reason, his deep swirling eyes suddenly appeared in her mind, and she didn't even think about it. He just pushed open the door, walked in and then closed it casually.

Xia Houqi fell to the ground, and the bed was in a mess.

He supported the edge of the bed with one hand, his messy long hair mixed with sweat stuck to his cheek, making him look extraordinarily embarrassed.

His pain was mixed with helplessness: "Didn't I tell you not to come in?"

Li Jing pursed her lips and walked to his side, she stretched out her hand to help him, but he grabbed his arm, the force was so strong that she frowned and turned pale.

He let go of her hand suddenly, turned his head away from looking at her, his hands were tightly gripping the edge of the bed, his fingertips turned white, and suppressed moans of pain overflowed from his throat from time to time.

Tuanzi turned pale with shock: "Could this be epilepsy?"

She couldn't help but glared at it: "Are you blind?"

Its body trembled for a while, and it squatted silently to the corner of the wall.

Li Jing leaned down and stretched out her hand again to help him, but he swung it away forcefully, angrily screamed "Go", she clasped her fingers slightly: "If you don't make it clear, I won't leave."

She knelt on the ground, reaching out to touch him.

He didn't resist this time, but turned his head directly, resting his head on her shoulder, holding her back tightly with both hands, his body trembling a little.

She looked at the trembling eyelashes of his closed eyes with complicated eyes, looked at the dense sweat on his forehead, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with you?"

"I've been poisoned by Gu." He took a deep breath, suppressing the pain, "Xia Houshen, I will never let him go!"

Tuanzi flew over: "It really didn't take much effort! You were right to choose him. With his help to fight against Xia Houshen, your mission..."

She glanced at it coolly.

It squatted back to the corner immediately.

"What Gu?" She asked him in a low voice.

"This Gu has a nice name," he laughed mockingly, his face distorted due to the pain, "it's called Full Moon, every fifteenth full moon, it seems like thousands of ants are gnawing at my bones. "

It was extremely sinister.

Xia Houqi stopped talking, only a low hum came from time to time.

His face became paler and paler, making his originally handsome and cold face look extremely weak.

She silently wiped the sweat off his face with her sleeves, completely ignoring her numb legs and his stinging mask.

I don't know how long it took, his rapid breathing gradually stabilized, his frown slowly loosened, and the hands that were holding her back fell powerlessly to the ground.

She understood that he was in the past.

After moving her numb legs, she stretched out her arms to hug him. Originally, she thought it would be very difficult, but she didn't expect that his body was not heavy, probably only a little over a hundred catties.

Although this weight is not easy for her to hold, it will not be too strenuous.

Putting him on the bed, she calmly gathered up the somewhat messy robe, then turned around and walked over to open the door, because she didn't know the direction of the hidden guard, she just gave a faint command to the air: "Prepare Come here with hot water and handkerchiefs."

"Yes, princess."

She didn't look for the direction of the sound, but returned to the room and sat by the bed, looking at the mask on his face, she suddenly stretched out her hand.

The moment her hand touched the mask, he suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, and suddenly opened his eyes: "Don't move."

"You sweat a lot and I want to scrub you off," she explained.

"No, don't move my mask, I..." Before he finished speaking, he closed his eyes again, and let go of her hand, which hung down on the side of the bed.

After the dark guards brought hot water and handkerchiefs, they hid again.

Li Jing didn't touch his mask anymore, she just wiped it for him and went back to the room.

She is not the kind of person favored by the strong, and she has done too many outrageous things tonight, which made her a little irritable, and she tossed and turned on the bed for a long time before falling into a deep sleep.
