Enter Chang Xiangsi and help Jingzhai fight
Chapter 11 Fever
I don't know how long it took, but I felt hot again, as if my whole body was on fire, and my throat hurt in a different way. I wanted to call for help, but I couldn't make a sound, and my hands were too heavy to lift, and my whole body seemed to be tied up. I thought I might be dead, so I just let it go, maybe I can return to my original world and even have a mooncake in time, but this state continued, I couldn't stand it, but I couldn't move.
A hand gently placed on my forehead. I felt the hand was cool and refreshing, and it was very comfortable to touch my forehead. Unfortunately, the hand withdrew after a while. I wanted to keep it, and I exerted force and my fingers were able to move.
"Or... reduce the fever..." My ears were buzzing, and I couldn't hear clearly what the other person was saying. I just closed my eyes and sought the coolness. When I reached out my hand, I really got it. I put my burning face against it with satisfaction. The hand struggled for a while, but couldn't get away, so it stayed there.
"Just like that... don't go..." I forced out a few words in a hoarse voice while enduring the pain. As if I had used up all my strength, I fell into a deep sleep again.
When I opened my eyes again, the first thing I saw was the familiar bed curtain. I slowly looked to the side, and the person I had grabbed before was indeed Tu Shanjing. He was sitting on the bed, half of his body leaning on the edge of the bed, one hand still held tightly by me, and the other hand was resting under his face, his eyes closed, his long eyelashes casting a small shadow under his eyes, his hair was rarely messy, and he was breathing deeply. I was afraid of waking him up, so I didn't dare to move, and just turned my head slightly to look at his sleeping face.
I have never been so close to him, close enough to see the fine hairs on his face, the mole at the tip of his nose and under his eyebrows, and the lines on his slightly upturned lips.
Just as I was fascinated by it, he suddenly opened his eyes. I was caught off guard by our gazes and I felt my face getting hot again.
He pulled his hand out, got up, rubbed his waist, and shook his hands again.
My hands were empty, so I had to put them under the quilt and looked at him obediently.
He coughed lightly, leaned closer to me, and his hair fell down and touched my face, soft and cool. I laughed out of itchiness, and he paused before touching my forehead.
"The fever has subsided. Luckily, someone passed by and saved you that day, otherwise we would have been sending His Highness Yue Liang off and might not have found you."
"Then I am really lucky..." I patted my chest in fear.
"So, it was an accident...? I don't think you would do that." He looked serious and looked at me.
"Someone pushed me, but I didn't see it clearly."
Jing fell into deep thought after listening to this. After a while, he said, "I really can't think of who would harm you. Why don't you just say that it was your own carelessness and we'll wait and see what happens. Don't be afraid. I'll let You find two shadow guards to protect you."
I was inexplicably delighted, but then I thought, I don't know if Xiao Hui is nearby. If he is discovered...
"Sir, let them focus on protecting you, the old lady, and the eldest master. Lanxiang is safe now that she has returned home. Besides, if we suddenly assign a shadow guard to a maid, it might be against the rules and cause gossip."
My request was reasonable, Jing nodded and said, "Yes, then you should be more careful on weekdays, and tell me if there is anything unusual in time."
"Thank you for your concern, young master!" I shook his sleeve.
Maybe my voice was a little too loud and woke up the people outside. I heard footsteps running towards me, and Xiaowei rushed into my arms like a little cannonball.
"Girl, you're finally awake! Xiaowei was scared to death!"
I stroked her hair, pinched her ears and coaxed her, "Touch her hair, it won't scare you, touch her ears, it won't scare you for a while~"
Jingye, who came in with a basin of water, saw this scene and burst out laughing. She put the copper basin on the table next to her and walked closer: "You are in good spirits now? When you just came back, not only Xiaowei, but we were all scared! Thanks to the young master who injected spiritual power into you in time, otherwise I don't know what would have happened."
I turned to look at Tu Shanjing after hearing that. He lowered his eyes and said nothing. The corners of his eyes were slightly red, and the tails of his eyes were slightly upturned, with slender angles. His hair was still a little messy, with a sense of broken beauty.
"Yes, you have even forgotten how to use spiritual power. I guess you can't even feel how much spiritual power is in your body. Come, let Xiaowei wipe it for you. I will also take the young master back to wash up. I have been guarding you all night and half a day, and I still have to settle the bills with each family this afternoon." Jingye reached out her hand to feel the temperature of my forehead, then handed the small handkerchief to Xiaowei with confidence.
Tu Shanjing stood up and cleared his throat: "Well, I'll go back first. If you still feel uncomfortable, feel free to ask Xiaowei to call Doctor Hu to see you."
"Thank you, young master! Thank you, Sister Jingye!" I was a little at a loss for words. It turns out that people are very vulnerable when they are sick.
After they left, I pulled Xiaowei over and asked Xiaohui quietly. I learned that he said that the Mid-Autumn Festival celebration was over and I didn't need him to write for the time being, and he went home yesterday evening. I breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was not caught, otherwise it would be another setback.
I washed and rinsed, wiped off the sweat on my body, but I still felt weak after washing, so I took a nap. I felt very hungry when I woke up, so I ate and drank, and felt that most of my energy was restored. I felt a little overwhelmed by the sudden leisure time, and I suddenly missed home. I don’t know what my mother is doing, what dishes to cook today? I want to eat the sweet and sour pork ribs she made. What will happen to the original world if I come to this world? Will there be another me in a parallel universe? Then that me is not the real me. If not, will my father look for me everywhere? How can I go back?
"Xiao Wei, have you ever heard of anyone coming back to life from the dead, or possessing another's soul?"
"Horror! Girl, why are you asking this? It's scary. Did you burn your brain?" Xiao Wei touched my forehead tremblingly. I grabbed her hand and bit it gently: "I was possessed by a big demon! I will kill little demons like you in one bite!"
Suddenly there was a knock at the door, and a familiar voice rang out: "Miss Bai, are you up? The Second Young Master wants you to go to the study." I hurriedly asked Xiao Wei to open the door. Lan Mei walked in arrogantly, looking at me with squinted eyes: "Miss, hurry up and wash up! Don't go to see the Young Master like this, it's not decent!"
I stood up slowly: "Thank you, Miss, for the report, but - cough cough cough! I'm still weak and don't even have the energy to wash up, cough cough cough!"
Lan Mei pinched her nose with disdain and took three steps back: "Cough softly! Be careful not to pass the disease on to me! Hurry up and put on a veil. Although the young master has spiritual power to protect your body, don't let your dirty air offend him!" After that, she ran out of the room as if escaping.
Xiaowei and I smiled at each other, and I was very happy to tease Lan Mei. Xiaowei helped me get a misty blue dress, put on a black cape, and simply tied my hair up and inserted a silver hairpin diagonally. Then I went out with a veil on.
The wind was still cool at night, and I shivered a little when it blew on me, but fortunately the study was not far away, and it arrived just when I felt a little overwhelmed.
The servant guarding the door went in to report, and I immediately heard Feng Long's loud voice: "Quick! Call Lanxiang in!"
When I walked in, I saw that the room was full of glittering lights, and there were many treasures I didn't recognize. Jing had combed her hair, and was wearing a gold and jade crown, and a light gold dress with white embroidered water patterns. She was sitting in the middle of the study with an account book in her hand, and she looked completely free of decadence. Fenglong next to her was not wearing a crown, but only a dark red hairband, and was smiling and waving at me.
