360 The Actual Cause (2/2)
Jun Hua nodded, and Soujin asked the servants to bring her porridge and food for him. The two of them ate the food quickly before Jun Hua was forced to rest on the bed by Soujin again. Her complexion was good, but she still felt rather drowsy and tired.
”Did you overtrain again these past few weeks?” from what Soujin knew, she rarely touched her swords again until today. With him keeping her in the residence after their marriage and their one month of smooth journey to this place, she shouldn't have trained that much anymore.
Jun Hua shook her head. She knew very well that her body was not in good condition due to her participating in the war against Ye Jiu a couple of months before. She still should rest for a long time, but she didn't, which made the doctor strictly warn her to rest. Because of that, she didn't do much exercise except a bit warm up in order to keep her body condition.
”Is it because of the poison?” Soujin's eyes glinted in ruthlessness. If it was really because of the poison, he would surely butcher that Ye Jiu the moment he appeared.
Jun Hua didn't know. All she knew was that she felt tired and was unwilling to move too much, so Soujin let her rest as much as she wanted. After waiting for around one day, Ming Hui and the others arrived in the city.
”Hua'er,” Jun Zhenxian happily hugged his granddaughter before berating her again. He wouldn't allow her to do anything reckless again now that she was already a married woman.
Jun Hua laughed dryly, but she was glad for the attention her grandfather gave her, ”Don't worry Grandpa, Soujin won't let me do anything reckless anymore.”
”What do you mean don't worry? The two of you are the most reckless people!”
”…”
”…”
It took Jun Zhenxian long time to preach and warn before he could calm down. On the other hand, Nanglong Soujin head over to Ming Hui to consult on Jun Hua's condition. Consultation such as whether the late intake of an antidote would have a side effect or not and so on.
Ming Hui listened to Nanglong Soujin with a frown looming on his forehead. Fan Lanying and Yamin both have recovered not long after he gave them the antidote, why did Jun Hua still feeling unwell? However, looking at her complexion, he was sure that she was not sick.
”Will Hua'er get better?” Fan Lanying was starting to become anxious.
Yan shrugged, ”That woman general will surely fine. There is no way she would die that easily.”
”…” are you telling me that she can die from this illness?
Ming Hui and Soujin ignored Yan who was getting chased by Fan Lanying as they entered the room. Jun Zhenxian sat on the side, clearly looked relieved that his granddaughter was fine but worry because of her current condition.
”Ming Hui,” Jun Hua greeted with a smile while she was still sitting on her bed.
Ming Hui nodded his head, ”Let me check your pulse. Pardon my intrusion.”
With him knowing the rules for the nobility, he picked out a handkerchief and put it in Jun Hua's wrist before he checked her pulse. He concentrated for several minutes before looking towards Jun Hua.
”What is your feeling?”
”Tired,” Jun Hua answered, ”Is it really bad?”
”Have you felt sleepier these past few days?”
Jun Hua nodded her head. Soujin watched tensely as Ming Hui retracted his hand, ”You shouldn't hold your sword at all for the time being.”
Jun Hua already kind of expecting this answer. Still, she complained inside her mind. How long did she need to stay away from her sword? She already didn't touch it for a year before that battle, and she too didn't force herself much at the war, so her condition shouldn't be that bad.
Soujin nodded his head. He will make sure that she didn't touch the sword, ”For how long?”
”Nine months,” Ming Hui said seriously, yet his lips were slightly raised.
”Nine months?” Jun Hua felt that Ming Hui's expression was slightly off.
Ming Hui grinned and said, ”You're going to be a mother.”
