Princess is stubborn
Chapter 22, Feeding medicine
Leaving from Chunfeng Building, Xu Yuyao took Xie Bai directly to Yuexinju.
As soon as the must-order roast chicken was served, Xu Yuyao tore a whole chicken leg and put it on the small plate in front of Xie Bai.
"That's too much." Xie Bai looked at the whole chicken leg, which was a bit big.
"You don't have to eat, but this chicken leg must be eaten." Xu Yuyao thinks that eating meat is the best way to grow your body, no matter in size or where.
Xie Bai didn't dislike eating meat, but the chicken leg in front of her was clearly beyond her appetite - this chicken was a bit ridiculously big, and it was the first time she had seen a chicken grow to such a size.
The chicken was Xu Yuyao specially asked the guards to go all over the market in the capital, and picked the biggest chicken that could be seen in the market.As for how much money was spent, Xu Yuyao didn't care.She just wanted Xie Bai to eat more.
Yuexinju's roast chicken is really unique. Xie Bai thought that he would not be able to eat such a big chicken leg, but after eating two bites, he unknowingly killed the whole thick chicken leg.But if this one is repelled, the stomach is already full.
"Drink some soup." Xu Yuyao asked Bell to fill a bowl of soup and handed it to her.
Xie Bai hesitated.She felt that she was indeed full, but the taste of the mushroom soup was fresh and fragrant.
Xu Yuyao saw that she was not determined to refuse, so she pushed the soup bowl forward again.
In the end, Xie Bai still couldn't resist the delicious temptation, picked up the bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.
After eating a bowl of soup, Xie Bai felt that this might be the most satisfying meal she had eaten in 16 years!
Returning to Princess Mansion after lunch in Yuexinju, Xu Yuyao wanted to take Xie Bai directly to the bedroom in the backyard to take an afternoon nap, but as soon as he entered the mansion, a guard said that the crown prince brought the princess concubine.
Xu Yuyao: "What is the third brother and the third sister-in-law here for?"
Xie Bai thought to himself: It must be because of Teng Yue and the others.
After taking a nap, Xu Yuyao could only take Xie Bai to the front hall.
The prince and princess were sitting in the front hall drinking tea when they saw Xu Yuyao walking in with a girl who looked familiar.
When they got closer, the prince and princess were dumbfounded.
"Thank you...young lord?" the prince asked in disbelief.
Xu Yuyao raised her eyebrows: "Can't you tell if you change clothes?"
No, it was just too shocking.The prince said: "You wouldn't take him to the street like this, would you?"
"Why not?"
The prince swallowed the words back.Yesterday when Xie Bai went to the brothel, Xu Yuyao must have been very angry, but punishing Xie Bai to go out as a woman is much lighter than punishing Teng Yue and the others to go to the brothel to pick up customers.
Sure enough, there is still a difference between one's own family and outsiders.
Thinking of this, the prince took another look at Xie Bai, and still couldn't help but cast him a sympathetic look.
Facing the prince's sympathetic eyes, Xie Bai was at a loss.
"Why are third brother and third sister-in-law here today?" Xu Yuyao asked after pulling Xie Bai to sit down.
"It's your third sister-in-law. I want to chat with you." The prince said.
The princess nodded: "Yao'er, take a step to talk?"
"Can't you say it here?"
The princess took her hand and said softly: "It's not very convenient."
All right.Xu Yuyao got up and took the princess to the side hall to talk.Only Xie Bai and the prince were left in the front hall.
Looking at the women's clothing on Xie Bai, the prince felt awkward: "Last night..."
I'm coming.Xie Bai's heart beat like a drum.
"Yao'er didn't do anything to you, did he?" The prince looked at the woman's attire, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Xu Yuyao was really mad last night.
"Your Highness treats you very well." Rather than saying that he was very good, it would be better to say that he was a little surprised.Xie Bai thought.
She cried for so long for no reason last night, but Xu Yuyao didn't say anything, just kept wiping her tears away; later, she even promised herself that she would keep the Changping Marquis Mansion.
Before, I wondered if Xu Yuyao also wanted to use me, but after last night, Xie Bai felt that there was nothing worthy of being used by the other party at all.Moreover, Xu Yuyao's attitude towards her did not seem like she wanted to take advantage of her at all.
If he had to say something, Xie Bai felt that Xu Yuyao seemed to have a plan for him.As for what to draw, after this period of time, Xie Bai also understood very well.
"Although Yao'er is a princess, if she has gone too far, she still has to speak out."
Xie Bai knew that everyone in the royal family looked down on him. At this time, the prince would tell him that, he would definitely not suddenly accept his "brother-in-law", so——
"Dare to ask Your Highness, did something happen today?"
Sighing, the prince said: "Today, the four of you signed a joint letter and participated in Yao'er."
Hearing the prince's tone, it seems likely that the four of them didn't participate in a fortune, but made a long speech about it.
"Participate me, don't you just gin me, can I still lose a piece of meat?" Xu Yuyao felt that it was a bit of a big deal after hearing the crown princess.
It's not like that group of people never visited her before.
What "unruly and arrogant, insults the family style of heaven", what "extravagant and dissipated, hurts the fortune of the country"... Xu Yuyao is tired of hearing all kinds of words.
"It's different this time." Seeing her ignoring her, the Crown Princess was a little anxious, "You and Teng Yue were also classmates, so you should know the situation in their families. It's not Teng, Jiao, and Yu who are attending you this time." , Liu four, together with their in-laws, in-laws' in-laws...everything related to relatives, they are all joint names. It almost occupies half of the imperial court."
"Oh." Xu Yuyao still didn't understand, "Isn't there still half of the people in the imperial court who didn't have a joint name?"
The princess was a little speechless.But after thinking about it, when did Xu Yuyao deal with these things?When the prince went down to court this time, he hurried home and found himself. After talking about this matter, he also became very anxious.
However, both of them forgot that the real victim—Xu Yuyao, didn't care about these things at all.
After much deliberation, the princess finally said: "But... Yao'er, you are about to get married. People who have a family and a family can't always do things according to their temper."
"I didn't do this out of my temper, I did it after careful consideration." Seeing that the princess was so worried, Xu Yuyao explained, "If I don't do this, these people will still ask Xie Bai to drink flower wine in the future You know Xie Bai, the third sister-in-law, because of the relationship between the Changping Marquis Mansion and the other families, he definitely cannot refuse."
The princess nodded: "That's a good statement, but..."
"When the time comes, Xie Bai will be taken away by them every day to spend time and drink. Wouldn't I be angry every day?" Xu Yuyao interrupted the princess and said, "So, I just thought of a solution once and for all."
This method is really once and for all, but——
"Yao'er, do you think this method is a bit out of line?"
"Is there? It's okay." Xu Yuyao said, "They took the son-in-law to visit the brothel, a little more out of line than me."
Seeing that she didn't seem to be joking, the princess was stunned.Did she really think so?
For a while, it seemed that what the princess had prepared was useless.
"Is there anything else for sister-in-law San? If it's just such a small matter, you don't have to worry about me."
Knowing that the prince was still talking to Xie Bai outside, the princess had no choice but to change the subject: "I heard that Xie Bai stayed at the princess mansion last night."
"En." Xu Yuyao nodded.
Even though the princess was used to her frankness, she still felt stalked.
"This...the wedding is only four days away, so there is no need to rush at this time?" The princess said, "Besides, there is no one in the princess's mansion, so it's inconvenient to live here. Why don't you go back to the palace first and then live here?" The last four days?"
Xu Yuyao didn't respond to returning to the palace, but she was worried about Xie Bai.
The four of Teng Yue were taken back by their family members that night, and they definitely would not repent, and they might feel rebellious and revengeful, so they went to Changping Hou Mansion to find Xie Bai.
At that time, Xie Bai couldn't refuse, and he couldn't arrive at any time.Thinking about it, I feel that the problem is very big, Xu Yuyao thinks that it is better not to return to the palace.
"No, I can't worry about it."
"He's going back to the Marquis Mansion, what's there to worry about?"
Xu Yuyao expressed her worries: "These four people looked like dogs when they were in the school, but they turned out to be such people!"
"You've punished them like this, they don't dare to harass Xie Bai anymore." The concubine comforted, "Besides, Mrs. Xie also sent someone to find me and your third brother, saying that she hoped that Xie Bai could go home and stay for two days. , after all, before getting married, there are some things to do over there."
Frowning slightly, Xu Yuyao didn't really want to do this. First, she was worried about Teng Yue and the others, and second, she was worried about Master Xie and Mrs. Xie.
Speaking of which, did Xie Bai tell the two of them that he knew her secret?I don't think so.
"Isn't everything about getting married handed over to the Ceremony Supervisor? What else is the Hou Mansion going to do? Just wait."
"Father and mother miss their children too. It's like the father, queen and queen miss you too."
Xu Yuyao still didn't want to go back.
The princess said again: "Even if you don't go back to the palace today, you still have to go back on the eve of the wedding."
After a moment of silence, Xu Yuyao said, "It's okay to go back, but before I go back, I have to beat those four people again."
The prince and the concubine had anticipated this result before they came, and they had already thought of countermeasures in advance: "The four of them, your third brother has already sent someone to beat them, so you can go back to the palace with peace of mind."
Now that the troubles are resolved, Xu Yuyao is not so opposed to returning to the palace, but the Marquis of Changping...
"I'm going back to the palace, but my guards will be left to Xie Bai."
In this regard, the princess did not object.
After the two chatted and returned to the main hall, they saw Xie Bai and the prince looking at each other, relatively speechless.
Regarding what the prince said, Xu Yuyao's participation in the National People's Congress, Xie Bai's reaction was very flat, so flat that the prince was very dissatisfied.So much so that the words were not speculative, the two just kept staring until Xu Yuyao and the princess came out.
As soon as Xu Yuyao came out, he said to Xie Bai: "Go back to the Marquis Mansion today, and my guards will go back with you. If you encounter something you don't want to do, no matter who it is, don't bother with them. No?"
"Yes." Xie Bai knew who she was targeting, so he agreed.
"Four days later, I'll wait for you." After Xu Yuyao said this, she asked the guards to prepare a carriage and sent Xie Bai back to his residence.
Xie Bai originally wanted to say that he hadn't changed his clothes yet, but after thinking about it, he had already gone out dressed like this, and it was not too late to go home.Anyway, sitting in the carriage.
After saying goodbye to the prince and princess, Xie Bai left.
Xu Yuyao reluctantly watched her leave.
In the eyes of the prince, this scene was very unpleasant.
——Xie Bai has no heart at all!How could she get Yao'er's infatuation!
The crown prince stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Xu Yuyao's eyes: "Yao'er, it's time to go back to the palace."
The only carriage currently in the mansion was sent to see Xie Bai off, and Xu Yuyao could only take the carriage in the Prince's mansion if he wanted to go back to the palace.
The carriage carried three people and went straight to the palace.
Hearing that Xu Yuyao had returned to the palace, the queen and emperor rushed over immediately.
When they met, they just mentioned what Xu Yuyao had been doing outside the past two days.
The emperor said: "Yao'er, you are going to get married soon, why are you still so willful?"
Seeing the posture of the emperor and empress, Xu Yuyao knew that they wanted to start preaching, so she yawned and said, "Daughter is sleepy, she is going to take a nap."
The emperor and queen had no choice but to let her take a nap first.
But after Xu Yuyao fell asleep, she went straight to dinner time.
The emperor and queen planned to take advantage of the meal to continue the endless topic before, but Xu Yuyao was the first to speak.
"This eggplant is not peeled, this cucumber is too old, this fish soup is too fishy, this mutton is too smelly... What's going on in the imperial dining room today? Do you want money after making it like this?"
The eggplant was deliberately left unpeeled, the cucumber was not too old, the fish soup was very delicious, and the mutton was marinated with seasoning... No matter what I thought it was Xu Yuyao deliberately looking for trouble.
The emperor and empress looked at each other, and both decided to give up.
In the future, there will be fewer and fewer opportunities to eat together with my precious daughter, so I should cherish this opportunity to eat together and have a good and stable meal.
For a moment, the two of them seemed to completely forget that Xu Yuyao's waywardness was all due to their little spoiling.
After dinner, Xu Yuyao shouted to go to the hot spring again, and the preaching was done again.
Until nightfall, the emperor and the empress returned to the bedroom, faced each other, and sighed together.
As soon as Xie Bai returned to the mansion, Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie rushed out after hearing the sound.
Seeing the clothes on Xie Bai, the two were completely dumbfounded.
"You are..."
Looking at the servant girls standing around, Mrs. Xie said, "Let's go back to the house first."
After returning to the house and dismissing all the servants, Mrs. Xie closed the door and asked in a low voice, "Ziqing, what's going on here? How...how could you dress like this?"
"The princess knows your identity?!" Lord Xie was angry and anxious, "What did you do!"
Originally, Xie Bai came back this time to tell them that Xu Yuyao not only knew his secret, but also promised to keep the Hou Mansion.However, at this moment, Xie Bai didn't really want to say anything.
So she said coldly: "The princess doesn't know my secret, if she knows, parents think, I can come back at this time?"
Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case. Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie were slightly relieved.
"Then what's going on!" Master Xie's tone was still not very good.
"Teng Yue and the others asked the boy to have a drink, and they took the boy to the Chunfeng Tower. Then they kept drinking the boy, and the boy couldn't hold back his drunkenness; they found a girl and asked the boy to stay overnight in the Chunfeng Tower. The boy was afraid that the secret would be exposed, so I tried my best to maintain my consciousness and ran out, met the princess's carriage on the road, and was taken back to the princess mansion by the princess."
This passage has already gone crazy outside, of course Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie know about it.
Mrs. Xie urged: "And then?"
"Then the princess got angry that the boy went to Chunfeng Tower, so she punished the boy to change into women's clothes and went out with her."
Hearing this, Marquis Xie and Mrs. Xie let out a long sigh: "It's fine if you don't reveal your secrets, it's fine if you don't reveal your secrets."
Xie Bai found it a little funny that they were deceiving themselves.For a moment, I couldn't remember why I was in the same mood as them a month ago.
Thinking of the question Xu Yuyao asked last night, "Can you live for yourself once?", Xie Bai said: "Even if you don't find out today or tomorrow, but four days later, the baby will marry the princess. How long can we hide it, have parents thought about it?"
Of course they knew they couldn't hide it, so when the imperial decree of marriage came down, they were anxious.
"It's only a matter of time," Marquis Xie didn't expect her to ask herself this directly, and frowned, "Otherwise, what else do you want? Are you really going to risk the nine clans and go to the princess to confess?"
Seeing Master Xie's appearance, Xie Bai should have gotten used to it, but at this moment there was a wave of turmoil in his heart.
A wave called "resistance".
"Since father knows that this is a serious crime to punish the nine clans, why did he ask the child to do it in the first place!"
"You...you still dare to talk back?" Master Xie raised his hand angrily and was about to hit him.
Mrs. Xie quickly grabbed Master Xie from the side: "Master, what can you do if you hit her?"
"If dad wants to hit him, he can hit him. It's best to beat the child to death, and then go to the funeral as soon as possible, so as not to expose the child and daughter, and hurt the father, mother and the whole Hou Mansion."
After saying this, Xie Bai was also stunned.
If it was me a month ago, it would be absolutely impossible to say such words to Lord Xie.But now, she actually said it out, and said it out easily!
After saying it, there was no guilt that I had expected before.Xie Bai felt that after staying with Xu Yuyao for a long time, he started to resemble her.
However, this feeling does not seem to be bad.
"You are so courageous! Do you really think I dare not beat you to death?" Marquis Xie was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, pushed Mrs. Xie away, and slapped Xie Bai on the face.
Xie Bai only felt a "buzz" in his ears, and his head was hit hard.
Lord Xie Hou didn't seem to calm down, he raised his hand and slapped him again.
Xie Bai didn't hide.She thought: Let's fight, after the fight is over, I will repay the kindness that has been raised all these years.
Seeing Xie Bai who didn't resist, Master Xie Hou suddenly didn't want to fight anymore, but said angrily: "Xie Bai, think about it for me, if it wasn't for me and your mother who asked you to pretend to be a boy, how could you have 'Xiaohou'?" Is it the title of Lord? Can you inherit the Marquis Mansion and the title in the future?"
"That's right, together with the name and title, there is also the great crime of punishing the Nine Clans." Xie Bai sneered.
When Xie Bai mentioned Zhu Jiu Clan again, Master Xie got angry again.
Xie Bai also knew that Marquis Xie's anger was not for anything else but because of embarrassment.I made an irrational decision in a moment of confusion back then, and now it is pointed out by others, or by my own children, it is natural to lose face.
If it was in the past, Xie Bai really wouldn't think so.It's just that too many things have happened this month, so many that it seems to be alive again.
Master Xie was so angry that he picked up the feather duster on the table next to him.
Mrs. Xie got up from the ground and stood in front of Xie Bai: "Master, if you hit me, kill me first!"
Xie Bai pulled Mrs. Xie away and said: "One person does the work and the other person does it. It's none of your mother's business! If you want to hit me, hit me, anyway, father is now wishing for the child to die."
Marquis Xie pushed away Mrs. Xie, who was blocking Xie Bai again, and the feather duster fell on Xie Bai.
This was the first time Xie Bai was beaten since he was a child, and it hurt like hell at first, but later on, Xie Bai felt that it was nothing.
Another four days, another four days, I don't have to stay in this Changping Marquis Mansion anymore.
Consciousness gradually blurred, and before Xie Bai passed out, there was only one thought left: Can I survive until four days later?
Xu Yuyao woke up early in the morning and didn't want to get up.
After waking up, he had to face the nagging of the queen and the emperor. Thinking of this, Xu Yuyao turned over again and covered his head with the quilt.
Until Ling Dang came in and said: "Your Highness, the guards came to report that the young master... fell ill."
Xu Yuyao sat up suddenly: "What? How did you get sick? When did it happen? How is it?"
"I don't know, the guard didn't say anything." Ling Dang complained about this, "Could he be pretending to be sick again? After all, there are three days before the wedding..."
"You talk too much!" Xu Yuyao knew that Xie Bai was definitely not pretending to be sick this time, so he got out of bed immediately and started busy getting dressed, "Go and ask someone to prepare the carriage, I will leave the palace right away. By the way, again Go find an imperial physician, let the imperial physician arrive quickly!"
Ling Dang curled her lips: "Why are you so anxious, Your Highness, what if Xie Xiaohou is really pretending to be sick?"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense, if I tell you to go, hurry up!"
Seeing that she was angry, Ling Dang hurried out to do something.
After arranging for someone to prepare the carriage, invite the imperial physician, and the bell came back, Xu Yuyao hurriedly put on her clothes, and even her belt was wrongly tied, so she had to go forward to untie it for her.
Seeing Ling Dang re-fasten the wrong belt, Xu Yuyao was about to leave.
"Your Highness, the hair..."
"No more combing!" Xu Yuyao was burning with anxiety.
I have long said that it is not safe for Xie Bai to go back!How could this person who happened to be fine suddenly fall ill?
Bell had no choice but to catch up with her hairpin and comb, and planned to tie up her hair again in the carriage.
When the carriage was leaving the palace, it happened to meet the prince who was entering the palace—Xiu Mu today, he came to see Xu Yuyao.
"Yao'er—" the crown prince lifted the curtain on the window to call out, but Xu Yuyao's carriage didn't stop and passed his carriage directly.
The prince was very hurt.
"Turn around and follow Yao'er." No need to guess, the prince knew in his heart that Xu Yuyao must be looking for Xie Bai in such a hurry.
Didn't they just leave yesterday afternoon!What are you doing in such a hurry!
It can't be... Xie Bai went to Chunfeng Tower again, right?
The carriage followed Xu Yuyao all the way to the gate of the Marquis of Changping. When the prince got out of the carriage, he saw Xu Yuyao's disheveled figure and rushed in.
On the way, Ling Dang wanted to comb her hair all the time, but the carriage ran too fast and accidentally poked her Highness, so she had to give up in the end.
Xu Yuyao rushed into the Hou's mansion, but was stopped by the servants of the Hou's mansion.
"Go away!"
"Your Highness, the master has ordered that no guests will be seen in the Hou Mansion today."
When Xu Yuyao heard it, she became even more anxious: "I said get out!"
No visitors?That is definitely a ghost!Maybe Xie Bai wasn't sick at all, but something happened to those two from the Xie family!
The boy was also in a difficult situation.On one side is my master, on the other side is the notoriously savage princess.
Seeing that he was still not moving, Xu Yuyao raised his hand and waved twice.
The guard stepped forward wisely and forced the man away.
Xu Yuyao was familiar with the Marquis of Changping, and went straight to Xie Bai's bedroom.
In front of Xie Bai's gate, there were two maidservants guarding him. When they saw Xu Yuyao approaching, they also blocked them from entering.
This time without Xu Yuyao's instruction, Ling Dang had already stepped forward to drive the person away.
Xu Yuyao kicked open the door, revealing a surprised face inside: "Princess... Your Highness?"
"Mrs. Xie, what happened to Ziqing?"
Mrs. Xie's face was full of tears, her eyes were red and swollen, and it looked like she had been crying for a long time.
It was completely different from the worried Mrs. Xie when Xu Yuyao came last time.
Hearing this, Madam Xie burst into tears again.
Xu Yuyao saw that she didn't look like someone to talk to right now, so she simply bypassed Mrs. Xie and entered the room.
Going around the screen, Xu Yuyao saw Xie Bai lying on the bed.
"Who did it?!" Xu Yuyao's anger went straight to his forehead, and his eyes turned red immediately.
Xie Bai's face on the bed was bloodless, his breathing was fast and slow, deep and shallow, but there were clear palm prints on his cheeks, and red marks on his exposed neck - it was obvious that he had been beaten!
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Xu Yuyao reached out and touched her forehead, it was hot.
"Ling Dang, hurry up and see if the imperial physician is here!"
"Here!" Even if Ling Dang didn't like Xie Bai, she knew the situation was critical and ran out immediately, only to see the crown prince in the yard, "Your Highness?"
"What's the matter?" The prince followed into the yard, but didn't go in again. When he saw the bell coming out, he stopped people to ask.
Ling Dang roared anxiously: "Young Master's condition is not very good, Your Highness is very anxious, let me go and see where the imperial physician is."
After finishing speaking, Bell walked around the prince and ran towards the door.
Hearing this, the prince didn't stop anyone, but knocked on the open door and followed inside.
"Mrs. Xie, what's going on here?" Seeing Mrs. Xie sitting on the chair in the outer room and crying non-stop, the prince glanced at the inner room and found that the screen was behind it so he couldn't see it, so he had to ask.
When Mrs. Xie saw the prince, she was about to stand up and salute, but was stopped by the prince.
"Ziqing, she..." Mrs. Xie sobbed, and cried again within a few words.
There was no other way, the prince had no choice but to ask the maid beside him to comfort Mrs. Xie, and went into the inner room by himself.
"Yao'er, the third brother came in?"
Seeing the prince coming in, Xu Yuyao said angrily with a hint of tears: "I just said that I won't go back to the palace, but you insist on me going back! As a result, Xie Bai became like this in just one night!"
The prince followed and looked at Xie Bai who was on the bed.Seeing this, the prince was also shocked.
The person who was still in high spirits when we parted yesterday, why is he dying today?
"What...how did this happen?" Even though he asked this question, the prince probably guessed it after seeing the injuries on Xie Bai's face and neck.Coupled with the attitude of the entire Changping Marquis Mansion, this injury was most likely caused by the Xie family's own people.
Seeing how sad Mrs. Xie was, I thought it was Lord Xie who beat her.
But, why did Marquis Xie beat Xie Bai like this?
"The imperial physician is here! The imperial physician is here!" Ling Dang trotted in with the imperial physician, "Your Highness, the imperial physician has arrived!"
"Quick, look at her!" Xu Yuyao hurriedly gave up the seat beside the bed, and even pushed the crown prince aside.
When the imperial physicians heard that it was Xu Yuxuan, they all refused to come, and finally sent him over.
Doctor Lin leaned closer to the bed, lifted Xie Bai's eyelids to look, then opened her mouth to look, finally pulled out her wrist, and felt the pulse.
It was fast enough to see a doctor, but Xu Yuyao felt that Dr. Lin's movements were slow.However, I can't rush to see a doctor, so I can only go around in circles by myself.
"Reporting to Your Highness the Crown Prince and Your Highness the Princess, Xie Xiaohou is fine."
"It doesn't matter if you call it that?" Xu Yuyao angrily scolded.
Doctor Lin shrank his neck and said: "Although the young master looks very serious, it is almost all skin trauma, as long as you apply medicine and take care of it slowly."
"How can skin trauma lead to fever and unconsciousness?" The prince didn't quite believe it either.
"Young Lord's fever is caused by the stasis of heart fire. As long as the next official prescribes a few doses of medicine, the fever will be reduced."
"Then why don't you hurry up and prescribe the medicine!" Xu Yuyao looked at Xie Bai on the bed, feeling as if something stabbed her heart.
Imperial Physician Lin hurriedly said, "I'll go right away, my servant."
"Ling Dang, follow Imperial Physician Lin to grab the medicine."
"Here."
When Ling Dang followed Imperial Doctor Lin away, Xu Yuyao looked at the crown prince and said, "Third brother, Xie Bai is my son-in-law, someone beat Xie Bai like this, that is to say, he was hitting me in the face, I'm going to settle accounts with this person , third brother won't stop me, will he?"
"Yao'er, do you know who did it?" The prince thought she thought it was Teng Yue and others, so he asked.
"Naturally," Xu Yuyao sneered, she didn't care about the so-called sophistication of the world, but it didn't mean she didn't understand, "Mr. Xie, besides him, who else would dare touch my consort!"
The prince sighed and said, "Since you know it's Lord Xie, how can you find him? Lord Xie is also Xie Bai's father."
"Is it the father who can beat people like this?" Xu Yuyao asked back, "If it is the father who can beat people like this, then as the princess of a country, doesn't this palace want to kill someone? Then I want to kill those unconscious Officer, why did Third Brother and Xie Bai stop me!"
The crown prince knew that Xu Yuyao was getting impatient at the moment, so he didn't dare to persuade him any more, for fear that Xu Yuyao would cut off Lord Xie if he tried hard enough.
"That's your future father-in-law after all. The third brother doesn't persuade you, but the third brother hopes that you can handle it yourself."
"I promise I won't kill him." Xu Yuyao sneered.
"However, Xie Bai looks like this now, and he can't do without people. Let's talk about looking for Lord Xie later." The prince plans to go to call Lord Xie while Xu Yuyao is taking care of Xie Bai. Be angry, lest Xie Houye say or do something wrong again, and really make Xu Yuyao so angry that he kills people.
Xu Yuyao sat back on the side of the bed again, picked up the cloth towel from the basin beside it, wrung it dry, folded it neatly, and placed it carefully on Xie Bai's forehead.
"Third brother is right, when Xie Bai is healed, it's not too late to settle accounts with him."
The prince had never seen such a careful and gentle younger sister, and he felt mixed feelings for a moment, and felt a little uneasy—Xu Yuyao really liked Xie Bai so much, to a degree that none of them could imagine.
Looking at the back of Xu Yuyao's caregiver, the prince sighed and retreated.
"Mrs. Xie, may I ask where Lord Xie is at this time?"
When Lord Xie heard the princess broke into Xie Bai's bedroom, he waved his hand and let them go.
Unexpectedly, not long after, someone outside said that the prince wanted to see him.
He doesn't have to go to see the princess, but not the prince.Xie Houye had no choice but to come out to greet him.
"Thank you Marquis, it's very disturbing for you to visit suddenly."
"Your Highness is being polite." Lord Xie Hou asked knowingly, "I don't know why Your Highness is looking for an old minister?"
"Xie Bai is like this, it's Lord Xie Hou..."
Hearing this, Lord Xie Hou grimaced and said: "Your Highness, the old minister said something presumptuous. Although you are a prince, how to educate your son is also the old minister's family business. Your Highness should not want to meddle in the minister's family affairs, right?"
"Now it's not my king who wants to meddle in your family's affairs, but Yao'er." The prince didn't expect Xie Houye to shake his face at him, and said in a cold voice, "Xie Houye should have something for this precious sister, my king. I understand, right now, she is furious because of Xie Bai's injury, and if Yao'er does something out of anger, I won't be able to stop her."
"Thank you for your kind reminder, Your Highness, even the princess can't control the subordinates to teach their own children."
"But don't forget, Lord Xie, your own child is also Yao'er's son-in-law, the son-in-law of my Xu family." The prince said, and patted Lord Xie on the shoulder, "That's all I said, For the rest, Marquis Xie can decide for himself."
After the prince left, Lord Xie Hou realized that he was actually breaking out in a cold sweat in this early summer.
The prince's last words were clearly threatening himself.If they offend them, they can completely make the Changping Marquis Mansion disappear, and Xie Bai——Xie Bai will be the royal son-in-law at that time, so what does he have to do with Changping Marquis Mansion?
Thinking of this, Marquis Xie suddenly regretted that he beat Xie Bai like this last night.
If you want to keep the Marquis of Changping, you should keep Xie Bai first!
Xie Houye slapped himself on the forehead: "Fainted! Fainted!"
Doctor Lin was still quick, and the medicine was quickly prepared by the kitchen and brought over.
Xu Yuyao declined all the people who wanted to feed the medicine, sat on the edge of the bed, took the medicine from the bell, scooped up a spoonful, put it on his lips, blew it, handed it to Xie Bai's mouth, and carefully sent it in .
However, Xie Bai still looked out of breath, and the medicine delivered to his mouth was spit out along with panting.
Ling Dang said from the side: "Your Highness, why don't the slaves come."
"No need." Xu Yuyao simply put down the spoon and took a sip from the bowl, then leaned over and put the medicine into Xie Bai's mouth.
When reading stories in the storybooks, Xu Yuyao felt that the ladies were really courageous when they saw the young ladies giving the medicine to the scholars. The medicine was so bitter that they dared to drink it by themselves before giving it to the scholar.
However, when it came to him today, Xu Yuyao found that when he woke up, he was so anxious that he would not notice how bitter the medicine was in his mouth.
In other words, worrying thoughts are much more bitter than this bowl of medicine.
After repeating it more than ten times, a bowl of medicine can be regarded as fully fed.
Bell immediately took the candied fruit and handed it to her.
Xu Yuyao waved his hand: "No need."
Looking at Xu Yuyao's eyes looking at Xie Bai, Ling Dang felt that standing here at this time was completely unnecessary.
The author has something to say: a more
As soon as the must-order roast chicken was served, Xu Yuyao tore a whole chicken leg and put it on the small plate in front of Xie Bai.
"That's too much." Xie Bai looked at the whole chicken leg, which was a bit big.
"You don't have to eat, but this chicken leg must be eaten." Xu Yuyao thinks that eating meat is the best way to grow your body, no matter in size or where.
Xie Bai didn't dislike eating meat, but the chicken leg in front of her was clearly beyond her appetite - this chicken was a bit ridiculously big, and it was the first time she had seen a chicken grow to such a size.
The chicken was Xu Yuyao specially asked the guards to go all over the market in the capital, and picked the biggest chicken that could be seen in the market.As for how much money was spent, Xu Yuyao didn't care.She just wanted Xie Bai to eat more.
Yuexinju's roast chicken is really unique. Xie Bai thought that he would not be able to eat such a big chicken leg, but after eating two bites, he unknowingly killed the whole thick chicken leg.But if this one is repelled, the stomach is already full.
"Drink some soup." Xu Yuyao asked Bell to fill a bowl of soup and handed it to her.
Xie Bai hesitated.She felt that she was indeed full, but the taste of the mushroom soup was fresh and fragrant.
Xu Yuyao saw that she was not determined to refuse, so she pushed the soup bowl forward again.
In the end, Xie Bai still couldn't resist the delicious temptation, picked up the bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.
After eating a bowl of soup, Xie Bai felt that this might be the most satisfying meal she had eaten in 16 years!
Returning to Princess Mansion after lunch in Yuexinju, Xu Yuyao wanted to take Xie Bai directly to the bedroom in the backyard to take an afternoon nap, but as soon as he entered the mansion, a guard said that the crown prince brought the princess concubine.
Xu Yuyao: "What is the third brother and the third sister-in-law here for?"
Xie Bai thought to himself: It must be because of Teng Yue and the others.
After taking a nap, Xu Yuyao could only take Xie Bai to the front hall.
The prince and princess were sitting in the front hall drinking tea when they saw Xu Yuyao walking in with a girl who looked familiar.
When they got closer, the prince and princess were dumbfounded.
"Thank you...young lord?" the prince asked in disbelief.
Xu Yuyao raised her eyebrows: "Can't you tell if you change clothes?"
No, it was just too shocking.The prince said: "You wouldn't take him to the street like this, would you?"
"Why not?"
The prince swallowed the words back.Yesterday when Xie Bai went to the brothel, Xu Yuyao must have been very angry, but punishing Xie Bai to go out as a woman is much lighter than punishing Teng Yue and the others to go to the brothel to pick up customers.
Sure enough, there is still a difference between one's own family and outsiders.
Thinking of this, the prince took another look at Xie Bai, and still couldn't help but cast him a sympathetic look.
Facing the prince's sympathetic eyes, Xie Bai was at a loss.
"Why are third brother and third sister-in-law here today?" Xu Yuyao asked after pulling Xie Bai to sit down.
"It's your third sister-in-law. I want to chat with you." The prince said.
The princess nodded: "Yao'er, take a step to talk?"
"Can't you say it here?"
The princess took her hand and said softly: "It's not very convenient."
All right.Xu Yuyao got up and took the princess to the side hall to talk.Only Xie Bai and the prince were left in the front hall.
Looking at the women's clothing on Xie Bai, the prince felt awkward: "Last night..."
I'm coming.Xie Bai's heart beat like a drum.
"Yao'er didn't do anything to you, did he?" The prince looked at the woman's attire, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Xu Yuyao was really mad last night.
"Your Highness treats you very well." Rather than saying that he was very good, it would be better to say that he was a little surprised.Xie Bai thought.
She cried for so long for no reason last night, but Xu Yuyao didn't say anything, just kept wiping her tears away; later, she even promised herself that she would keep the Changping Marquis Mansion.
Before, I wondered if Xu Yuyao also wanted to use me, but after last night, Xie Bai felt that there was nothing worthy of being used by the other party at all.Moreover, Xu Yuyao's attitude towards her did not seem like she wanted to take advantage of her at all.
If he had to say something, Xie Bai felt that Xu Yuyao seemed to have a plan for him.As for what to draw, after this period of time, Xie Bai also understood very well.
"Although Yao'er is a princess, if she has gone too far, she still has to speak out."
Xie Bai knew that everyone in the royal family looked down on him. At this time, the prince would tell him that, he would definitely not suddenly accept his "brother-in-law", so——
"Dare to ask Your Highness, did something happen today?"
Sighing, the prince said: "Today, the four of you signed a joint letter and participated in Yao'er."
Hearing the prince's tone, it seems likely that the four of them didn't participate in a fortune, but made a long speech about it.
"Participate me, don't you just gin me, can I still lose a piece of meat?" Xu Yuyao felt that it was a bit of a big deal after hearing the crown princess.
It's not like that group of people never visited her before.
What "unruly and arrogant, insults the family style of heaven", what "extravagant and dissipated, hurts the fortune of the country"... Xu Yuyao is tired of hearing all kinds of words.
"It's different this time." Seeing her ignoring her, the Crown Princess was a little anxious, "You and Teng Yue were also classmates, so you should know the situation in their families. It's not Teng, Jiao, and Yu who are attending you this time." , Liu four, together with their in-laws, in-laws' in-laws...everything related to relatives, they are all joint names. It almost occupies half of the imperial court."
"Oh." Xu Yuyao still didn't understand, "Isn't there still half of the people in the imperial court who didn't have a joint name?"
The princess was a little speechless.But after thinking about it, when did Xu Yuyao deal with these things?When the prince went down to court this time, he hurried home and found himself. After talking about this matter, he also became very anxious.
However, both of them forgot that the real victim—Xu Yuyao, didn't care about these things at all.
After much deliberation, the princess finally said: "But... Yao'er, you are about to get married. People who have a family and a family can't always do things according to their temper."
"I didn't do this out of my temper, I did it after careful consideration." Seeing that the princess was so worried, Xu Yuyao explained, "If I don't do this, these people will still ask Xie Bai to drink flower wine in the future You know Xie Bai, the third sister-in-law, because of the relationship between the Changping Marquis Mansion and the other families, he definitely cannot refuse."
The princess nodded: "That's a good statement, but..."
"When the time comes, Xie Bai will be taken away by them every day to spend time and drink. Wouldn't I be angry every day?" Xu Yuyao interrupted the princess and said, "So, I just thought of a solution once and for all."
This method is really once and for all, but——
"Yao'er, do you think this method is a bit out of line?"
"Is there? It's okay." Xu Yuyao said, "They took the son-in-law to visit the brothel, a little more out of line than me."
Seeing that she didn't seem to be joking, the princess was stunned.Did she really think so?
For a while, it seemed that what the princess had prepared was useless.
"Is there anything else for sister-in-law San? If it's just such a small matter, you don't have to worry about me."
Knowing that the prince was still talking to Xie Bai outside, the princess had no choice but to change the subject: "I heard that Xie Bai stayed at the princess mansion last night."
"En." Xu Yuyao nodded.
Even though the princess was used to her frankness, she still felt stalked.
"This...the wedding is only four days away, so there is no need to rush at this time?" The princess said, "Besides, there is no one in the princess's mansion, so it's inconvenient to live here. Why don't you go back to the palace first and then live here?" The last four days?"
Xu Yuyao didn't respond to returning to the palace, but she was worried about Xie Bai.
The four of Teng Yue were taken back by their family members that night, and they definitely would not repent, and they might feel rebellious and revengeful, so they went to Changping Hou Mansion to find Xie Bai.
At that time, Xie Bai couldn't refuse, and he couldn't arrive at any time.Thinking about it, I feel that the problem is very big, Xu Yuyao thinks that it is better not to return to the palace.
"No, I can't worry about it."
"He's going back to the Marquis Mansion, what's there to worry about?"
Xu Yuyao expressed her worries: "These four people looked like dogs when they were in the school, but they turned out to be such people!"
"You've punished them like this, they don't dare to harass Xie Bai anymore." The concubine comforted, "Besides, Mrs. Xie also sent someone to find me and your third brother, saying that she hoped that Xie Bai could go home and stay for two days. , after all, before getting married, there are some things to do over there."
Frowning slightly, Xu Yuyao didn't really want to do this. First, she was worried about Teng Yue and the others, and second, she was worried about Master Xie and Mrs. Xie.
Speaking of which, did Xie Bai tell the two of them that he knew her secret?I don't think so.
"Isn't everything about getting married handed over to the Ceremony Supervisor? What else is the Hou Mansion going to do? Just wait."
"Father and mother miss their children too. It's like the father, queen and queen miss you too."
Xu Yuyao still didn't want to go back.
The princess said again: "Even if you don't go back to the palace today, you still have to go back on the eve of the wedding."
After a moment of silence, Xu Yuyao said, "It's okay to go back, but before I go back, I have to beat those four people again."
The prince and the concubine had anticipated this result before they came, and they had already thought of countermeasures in advance: "The four of them, your third brother has already sent someone to beat them, so you can go back to the palace with peace of mind."
Now that the troubles are resolved, Xu Yuyao is not so opposed to returning to the palace, but the Marquis of Changping...
"I'm going back to the palace, but my guards will be left to Xie Bai."
In this regard, the princess did not object.
After the two chatted and returned to the main hall, they saw Xie Bai and the prince looking at each other, relatively speechless.
Regarding what the prince said, Xu Yuyao's participation in the National People's Congress, Xie Bai's reaction was very flat, so flat that the prince was very dissatisfied.So much so that the words were not speculative, the two just kept staring until Xu Yuyao and the princess came out.
As soon as Xu Yuyao came out, he said to Xie Bai: "Go back to the Marquis Mansion today, and my guards will go back with you. If you encounter something you don't want to do, no matter who it is, don't bother with them. No?"
"Yes." Xie Bai knew who she was targeting, so he agreed.
"Four days later, I'll wait for you." After Xu Yuyao said this, she asked the guards to prepare a carriage and sent Xie Bai back to his residence.
Xie Bai originally wanted to say that he hadn't changed his clothes yet, but after thinking about it, he had already gone out dressed like this, and it was not too late to go home.Anyway, sitting in the carriage.
After saying goodbye to the prince and princess, Xie Bai left.
Xu Yuyao reluctantly watched her leave.
In the eyes of the prince, this scene was very unpleasant.
——Xie Bai has no heart at all!How could she get Yao'er's infatuation!
The crown prince stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Xu Yuyao's eyes: "Yao'er, it's time to go back to the palace."
The only carriage currently in the mansion was sent to see Xie Bai off, and Xu Yuyao could only take the carriage in the Prince's mansion if he wanted to go back to the palace.
The carriage carried three people and went straight to the palace.
Hearing that Xu Yuyao had returned to the palace, the queen and emperor rushed over immediately.
When they met, they just mentioned what Xu Yuyao had been doing outside the past two days.
The emperor said: "Yao'er, you are going to get married soon, why are you still so willful?"
Seeing the posture of the emperor and empress, Xu Yuyao knew that they wanted to start preaching, so she yawned and said, "Daughter is sleepy, she is going to take a nap."
The emperor and queen had no choice but to let her take a nap first.
But after Xu Yuyao fell asleep, she went straight to dinner time.
The emperor and queen planned to take advantage of the meal to continue the endless topic before, but Xu Yuyao was the first to speak.
"This eggplant is not peeled, this cucumber is too old, this fish soup is too fishy, this mutton is too smelly... What's going on in the imperial dining room today? Do you want money after making it like this?"
The eggplant was deliberately left unpeeled, the cucumber was not too old, the fish soup was very delicious, and the mutton was marinated with seasoning... No matter what I thought it was Xu Yuyao deliberately looking for trouble.
The emperor and empress looked at each other, and both decided to give up.
In the future, there will be fewer and fewer opportunities to eat together with my precious daughter, so I should cherish this opportunity to eat together and have a good and stable meal.
For a moment, the two of them seemed to completely forget that Xu Yuyao's waywardness was all due to their little spoiling.
After dinner, Xu Yuyao shouted to go to the hot spring again, and the preaching was done again.
Until nightfall, the emperor and the empress returned to the bedroom, faced each other, and sighed together.
As soon as Xie Bai returned to the mansion, Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie rushed out after hearing the sound.
Seeing the clothes on Xie Bai, the two were completely dumbfounded.
"You are..."
Looking at the servant girls standing around, Mrs. Xie said, "Let's go back to the house first."
After returning to the house and dismissing all the servants, Mrs. Xie closed the door and asked in a low voice, "Ziqing, what's going on here? How...how could you dress like this?"
"The princess knows your identity?!" Lord Xie was angry and anxious, "What did you do!"
Originally, Xie Bai came back this time to tell them that Xu Yuyao not only knew his secret, but also promised to keep the Hou Mansion.However, at this moment, Xie Bai didn't really want to say anything.
So she said coldly: "The princess doesn't know my secret, if she knows, parents think, I can come back at this time?"
Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case. Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie were slightly relieved.
"Then what's going on!" Master Xie's tone was still not very good.
"Teng Yue and the others asked the boy to have a drink, and they took the boy to the Chunfeng Tower. Then they kept drinking the boy, and the boy couldn't hold back his drunkenness; they found a girl and asked the boy to stay overnight in the Chunfeng Tower. The boy was afraid that the secret would be exposed, so I tried my best to maintain my consciousness and ran out, met the princess's carriage on the road, and was taken back to the princess mansion by the princess."
This passage has already gone crazy outside, of course Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie know about it.
Mrs. Xie urged: "And then?"
"Then the princess got angry that the boy went to Chunfeng Tower, so she punished the boy to change into women's clothes and went out with her."
Hearing this, Marquis Xie and Mrs. Xie let out a long sigh: "It's fine if you don't reveal your secrets, it's fine if you don't reveal your secrets."
Xie Bai found it a little funny that they were deceiving themselves.For a moment, I couldn't remember why I was in the same mood as them a month ago.
Thinking of the question Xu Yuyao asked last night, "Can you live for yourself once?", Xie Bai said: "Even if you don't find out today or tomorrow, but four days later, the baby will marry the princess. How long can we hide it, have parents thought about it?"
Of course they knew they couldn't hide it, so when the imperial decree of marriage came down, they were anxious.
"It's only a matter of time," Marquis Xie didn't expect her to ask herself this directly, and frowned, "Otherwise, what else do you want? Are you really going to risk the nine clans and go to the princess to confess?"
Seeing Master Xie's appearance, Xie Bai should have gotten used to it, but at this moment there was a wave of turmoil in his heart.
A wave called "resistance".
"Since father knows that this is a serious crime to punish the nine clans, why did he ask the child to do it in the first place!"
"You...you still dare to talk back?" Master Xie raised his hand angrily and was about to hit him.
Mrs. Xie quickly grabbed Master Xie from the side: "Master, what can you do if you hit her?"
"If dad wants to hit him, he can hit him. It's best to beat the child to death, and then go to the funeral as soon as possible, so as not to expose the child and daughter, and hurt the father, mother and the whole Hou Mansion."
After saying this, Xie Bai was also stunned.
If it was me a month ago, it would be absolutely impossible to say such words to Lord Xie.But now, she actually said it out, and said it out easily!
After saying it, there was no guilt that I had expected before.Xie Bai felt that after staying with Xu Yuyao for a long time, he started to resemble her.
However, this feeling does not seem to be bad.
"You are so courageous! Do you really think I dare not beat you to death?" Marquis Xie was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, pushed Mrs. Xie away, and slapped Xie Bai on the face.
Xie Bai only felt a "buzz" in his ears, and his head was hit hard.
Lord Xie Hou didn't seem to calm down, he raised his hand and slapped him again.
Xie Bai didn't hide.She thought: Let's fight, after the fight is over, I will repay the kindness that has been raised all these years.
Seeing Xie Bai who didn't resist, Master Xie Hou suddenly didn't want to fight anymore, but said angrily: "Xie Bai, think about it for me, if it wasn't for me and your mother who asked you to pretend to be a boy, how could you have 'Xiaohou'?" Is it the title of Lord? Can you inherit the Marquis Mansion and the title in the future?"
"That's right, together with the name and title, there is also the great crime of punishing the Nine Clans." Xie Bai sneered.
When Xie Bai mentioned Zhu Jiu Clan again, Master Xie got angry again.
Xie Bai also knew that Marquis Xie's anger was not for anything else but because of embarrassment.I made an irrational decision in a moment of confusion back then, and now it is pointed out by others, or by my own children, it is natural to lose face.
If it was in the past, Xie Bai really wouldn't think so.It's just that too many things have happened this month, so many that it seems to be alive again.
Master Xie was so angry that he picked up the feather duster on the table next to him.
Mrs. Xie got up from the ground and stood in front of Xie Bai: "Master, if you hit me, kill me first!"
Xie Bai pulled Mrs. Xie away and said: "One person does the work and the other person does it. It's none of your mother's business! If you want to hit me, hit me, anyway, father is now wishing for the child to die."
Marquis Xie pushed away Mrs. Xie, who was blocking Xie Bai again, and the feather duster fell on Xie Bai.
This was the first time Xie Bai was beaten since he was a child, and it hurt like hell at first, but later on, Xie Bai felt that it was nothing.
Another four days, another four days, I don't have to stay in this Changping Marquis Mansion anymore.
Consciousness gradually blurred, and before Xie Bai passed out, there was only one thought left: Can I survive until four days later?
Xu Yuyao woke up early in the morning and didn't want to get up.
After waking up, he had to face the nagging of the queen and the emperor. Thinking of this, Xu Yuyao turned over again and covered his head with the quilt.
Until Ling Dang came in and said: "Your Highness, the guards came to report that the young master... fell ill."
Xu Yuyao sat up suddenly: "What? How did you get sick? When did it happen? How is it?"
"I don't know, the guard didn't say anything." Ling Dang complained about this, "Could he be pretending to be sick again? After all, there are three days before the wedding..."
"You talk too much!" Xu Yuyao knew that Xie Bai was definitely not pretending to be sick this time, so he got out of bed immediately and started busy getting dressed, "Go and ask someone to prepare the carriage, I will leave the palace right away. By the way, again Go find an imperial physician, let the imperial physician arrive quickly!"
Ling Dang curled her lips: "Why are you so anxious, Your Highness, what if Xie Xiaohou is really pretending to be sick?"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense, if I tell you to go, hurry up!"
Seeing that she was angry, Ling Dang hurried out to do something.
After arranging for someone to prepare the carriage, invite the imperial physician, and the bell came back, Xu Yuyao hurriedly put on her clothes, and even her belt was wrongly tied, so she had to go forward to untie it for her.
Seeing Ling Dang re-fasten the wrong belt, Xu Yuyao was about to leave.
"Your Highness, the hair..."
"No more combing!" Xu Yuyao was burning with anxiety.
I have long said that it is not safe for Xie Bai to go back!How could this person who happened to be fine suddenly fall ill?
Bell had no choice but to catch up with her hairpin and comb, and planned to tie up her hair again in the carriage.
When the carriage was leaving the palace, it happened to meet the prince who was entering the palace—Xiu Mu today, he came to see Xu Yuyao.
"Yao'er—" the crown prince lifted the curtain on the window to call out, but Xu Yuyao's carriage didn't stop and passed his carriage directly.
The prince was very hurt.
"Turn around and follow Yao'er." No need to guess, the prince knew in his heart that Xu Yuyao must be looking for Xie Bai in such a hurry.
Didn't they just leave yesterday afternoon!What are you doing in such a hurry!
It can't be... Xie Bai went to Chunfeng Tower again, right?
The carriage followed Xu Yuyao all the way to the gate of the Marquis of Changping. When the prince got out of the carriage, he saw Xu Yuyao's disheveled figure and rushed in.
On the way, Ling Dang wanted to comb her hair all the time, but the carriage ran too fast and accidentally poked her Highness, so she had to give up in the end.
Xu Yuyao rushed into the Hou's mansion, but was stopped by the servants of the Hou's mansion.
"Go away!"
"Your Highness, the master has ordered that no guests will be seen in the Hou Mansion today."
When Xu Yuyao heard it, she became even more anxious: "I said get out!"
No visitors?That is definitely a ghost!Maybe Xie Bai wasn't sick at all, but something happened to those two from the Xie family!
The boy was also in a difficult situation.On one side is my master, on the other side is the notoriously savage princess.
Seeing that he was still not moving, Xu Yuyao raised his hand and waved twice.
The guard stepped forward wisely and forced the man away.
Xu Yuyao was familiar with the Marquis of Changping, and went straight to Xie Bai's bedroom.
In front of Xie Bai's gate, there were two maidservants guarding him. When they saw Xu Yuyao approaching, they also blocked them from entering.
This time without Xu Yuyao's instruction, Ling Dang had already stepped forward to drive the person away.
Xu Yuyao kicked open the door, revealing a surprised face inside: "Princess... Your Highness?"
"Mrs. Xie, what happened to Ziqing?"
Mrs. Xie's face was full of tears, her eyes were red and swollen, and it looked like she had been crying for a long time.
It was completely different from the worried Mrs. Xie when Xu Yuyao came last time.
Hearing this, Madam Xie burst into tears again.
Xu Yuyao saw that she didn't look like someone to talk to right now, so she simply bypassed Mrs. Xie and entered the room.
Going around the screen, Xu Yuyao saw Xie Bai lying on the bed.
"Who did it?!" Xu Yuyao's anger went straight to his forehead, and his eyes turned red immediately.
Xie Bai's face on the bed was bloodless, his breathing was fast and slow, deep and shallow, but there were clear palm prints on his cheeks, and red marks on his exposed neck - it was obvious that he had been beaten!
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Xu Yuyao reached out and touched her forehead, it was hot.
"Ling Dang, hurry up and see if the imperial physician is here!"
"Here!" Even if Ling Dang didn't like Xie Bai, she knew the situation was critical and ran out immediately, only to see the crown prince in the yard, "Your Highness?"
"What's the matter?" The prince followed into the yard, but didn't go in again. When he saw the bell coming out, he stopped people to ask.
Ling Dang roared anxiously: "Young Master's condition is not very good, Your Highness is very anxious, let me go and see where the imperial physician is."
After finishing speaking, Bell walked around the prince and ran towards the door.
Hearing this, the prince didn't stop anyone, but knocked on the open door and followed inside.
"Mrs. Xie, what's going on here?" Seeing Mrs. Xie sitting on the chair in the outer room and crying non-stop, the prince glanced at the inner room and found that the screen was behind it so he couldn't see it, so he had to ask.
When Mrs. Xie saw the prince, she was about to stand up and salute, but was stopped by the prince.
"Ziqing, she..." Mrs. Xie sobbed, and cried again within a few words.
There was no other way, the prince had no choice but to ask the maid beside him to comfort Mrs. Xie, and went into the inner room by himself.
"Yao'er, the third brother came in?"
Seeing the prince coming in, Xu Yuyao said angrily with a hint of tears: "I just said that I won't go back to the palace, but you insist on me going back! As a result, Xie Bai became like this in just one night!"
The prince followed and looked at Xie Bai who was on the bed.Seeing this, the prince was also shocked.
The person who was still in high spirits when we parted yesterday, why is he dying today?
"What...how did this happen?" Even though he asked this question, the prince probably guessed it after seeing the injuries on Xie Bai's face and neck.Coupled with the attitude of the entire Changping Marquis Mansion, this injury was most likely caused by the Xie family's own people.
Seeing how sad Mrs. Xie was, I thought it was Lord Xie who beat her.
But, why did Marquis Xie beat Xie Bai like this?
"The imperial physician is here! The imperial physician is here!" Ling Dang trotted in with the imperial physician, "Your Highness, the imperial physician has arrived!"
"Quick, look at her!" Xu Yuyao hurriedly gave up the seat beside the bed, and even pushed the crown prince aside.
When the imperial physicians heard that it was Xu Yuxuan, they all refused to come, and finally sent him over.
Doctor Lin leaned closer to the bed, lifted Xie Bai's eyelids to look, then opened her mouth to look, finally pulled out her wrist, and felt the pulse.
It was fast enough to see a doctor, but Xu Yuyao felt that Dr. Lin's movements were slow.However, I can't rush to see a doctor, so I can only go around in circles by myself.
"Reporting to Your Highness the Crown Prince and Your Highness the Princess, Xie Xiaohou is fine."
"It doesn't matter if you call it that?" Xu Yuyao angrily scolded.
Doctor Lin shrank his neck and said: "Although the young master looks very serious, it is almost all skin trauma, as long as you apply medicine and take care of it slowly."
"How can skin trauma lead to fever and unconsciousness?" The prince didn't quite believe it either.
"Young Lord's fever is caused by the stasis of heart fire. As long as the next official prescribes a few doses of medicine, the fever will be reduced."
"Then why don't you hurry up and prescribe the medicine!" Xu Yuyao looked at Xie Bai on the bed, feeling as if something stabbed her heart.
Imperial Physician Lin hurriedly said, "I'll go right away, my servant."
"Ling Dang, follow Imperial Physician Lin to grab the medicine."
"Here."
When Ling Dang followed Imperial Doctor Lin away, Xu Yuyao looked at the crown prince and said, "Third brother, Xie Bai is my son-in-law, someone beat Xie Bai like this, that is to say, he was hitting me in the face, I'm going to settle accounts with this person , third brother won't stop me, will he?"
"Yao'er, do you know who did it?" The prince thought she thought it was Teng Yue and others, so he asked.
"Naturally," Xu Yuyao sneered, she didn't care about the so-called sophistication of the world, but it didn't mean she didn't understand, "Mr. Xie, besides him, who else would dare touch my consort!"
The prince sighed and said, "Since you know it's Lord Xie, how can you find him? Lord Xie is also Xie Bai's father."
"Is it the father who can beat people like this?" Xu Yuyao asked back, "If it is the father who can beat people like this, then as the princess of a country, doesn't this palace want to kill someone? Then I want to kill those unconscious Officer, why did Third Brother and Xie Bai stop me!"
The crown prince knew that Xu Yuyao was getting impatient at the moment, so he didn't dare to persuade him any more, for fear that Xu Yuyao would cut off Lord Xie if he tried hard enough.
"That's your future father-in-law after all. The third brother doesn't persuade you, but the third brother hopes that you can handle it yourself."
"I promise I won't kill him." Xu Yuyao sneered.
"However, Xie Bai looks like this now, and he can't do without people. Let's talk about looking for Lord Xie later." The prince plans to go to call Lord Xie while Xu Yuyao is taking care of Xie Bai. Be angry, lest Xie Houye say or do something wrong again, and really make Xu Yuyao so angry that he kills people.
Xu Yuyao sat back on the side of the bed again, picked up the cloth towel from the basin beside it, wrung it dry, folded it neatly, and placed it carefully on Xie Bai's forehead.
"Third brother is right, when Xie Bai is healed, it's not too late to settle accounts with him."
The prince had never seen such a careful and gentle younger sister, and he felt mixed feelings for a moment, and felt a little uneasy—Xu Yuyao really liked Xie Bai so much, to a degree that none of them could imagine.
Looking at the back of Xu Yuyao's caregiver, the prince sighed and retreated.
"Mrs. Xie, may I ask where Lord Xie is at this time?"
When Lord Xie heard the princess broke into Xie Bai's bedroom, he waved his hand and let them go.
Unexpectedly, not long after, someone outside said that the prince wanted to see him.
He doesn't have to go to see the princess, but not the prince.Xie Houye had no choice but to come out to greet him.
"Thank you Marquis, it's very disturbing for you to visit suddenly."
"Your Highness is being polite." Lord Xie Hou asked knowingly, "I don't know why Your Highness is looking for an old minister?"
"Xie Bai is like this, it's Lord Xie Hou..."
Hearing this, Lord Xie Hou grimaced and said: "Your Highness, the old minister said something presumptuous. Although you are a prince, how to educate your son is also the old minister's family business. Your Highness should not want to meddle in the minister's family affairs, right?"
"Now it's not my king who wants to meddle in your family's affairs, but Yao'er." The prince didn't expect Xie Houye to shake his face at him, and said in a cold voice, "Xie Houye should have something for this precious sister, my king. I understand, right now, she is furious because of Xie Bai's injury, and if Yao'er does something out of anger, I won't be able to stop her."
"Thank you for your kind reminder, Your Highness, even the princess can't control the subordinates to teach their own children."
"But don't forget, Lord Xie, your own child is also Yao'er's son-in-law, the son-in-law of my Xu family." The prince said, and patted Lord Xie on the shoulder, "That's all I said, For the rest, Marquis Xie can decide for himself."
After the prince left, Lord Xie Hou realized that he was actually breaking out in a cold sweat in this early summer.
The prince's last words were clearly threatening himself.If they offend them, they can completely make the Changping Marquis Mansion disappear, and Xie Bai——Xie Bai will be the royal son-in-law at that time, so what does he have to do with Changping Marquis Mansion?
Thinking of this, Marquis Xie suddenly regretted that he beat Xie Bai like this last night.
If you want to keep the Marquis of Changping, you should keep Xie Bai first!
Xie Houye slapped himself on the forehead: "Fainted! Fainted!"
Doctor Lin was still quick, and the medicine was quickly prepared by the kitchen and brought over.
Xu Yuyao declined all the people who wanted to feed the medicine, sat on the edge of the bed, took the medicine from the bell, scooped up a spoonful, put it on his lips, blew it, handed it to Xie Bai's mouth, and carefully sent it in .
However, Xie Bai still looked out of breath, and the medicine delivered to his mouth was spit out along with panting.
Ling Dang said from the side: "Your Highness, why don't the slaves come."
"No need." Xu Yuyao simply put down the spoon and took a sip from the bowl, then leaned over and put the medicine into Xie Bai's mouth.
When reading stories in the storybooks, Xu Yuyao felt that the ladies were really courageous when they saw the young ladies giving the medicine to the scholars. The medicine was so bitter that they dared to drink it by themselves before giving it to the scholar.
However, when it came to him today, Xu Yuyao found that when he woke up, he was so anxious that he would not notice how bitter the medicine was in his mouth.
In other words, worrying thoughts are much more bitter than this bowl of medicine.
After repeating it more than ten times, a bowl of medicine can be regarded as fully fed.
Bell immediately took the candied fruit and handed it to her.
Xu Yuyao waved his hand: "No need."
Looking at Xu Yuyao's eyes looking at Xie Bai, Ling Dang felt that standing here at this time was completely unnecessary.
