C274 (1/2)
It was also because of Manqing's lack of consideration that she did not ask someone to bring a keepsake.
Plus, they hadn't been married for long, so they didn't have much contact with each other. Furthermore, the person they sent out didn't know how to talk. The thing that could be seen most clearly was that General Xiahou wasn't around either.
With so many coincidences, the person that Man Qing sent out just couldn't be found.
Su Yuqing could only sniffle in front of Jingjing's bed.
Manqing had no other ideas.
Right now, Jingjing was feeding whatever it was that she wanted to puke, so she didn't retreat due to the high fever.
After a while, he was completely unconscious, and all his chattering was gone.
He heard a hoarse voice coughing helplessly.
Manqing had no choice but to 'detain' a doctor in the mansion. This way, she would be more useful than an outsider like her.
The doctor said she was hot and sweating, and maybe that would be all right.
But the weird thing was, Jingjing didn't have any reaction. She just kept on having a high fever and passed out.
When Man Qing saw Jing Jing like this, she tried her best to remain calm, only to see Su Yuqing crying in front of Jing Jing's bed.
She finally could not hold it in anymore. She stepped forward and shouted at Su Yuqing, ”Lady Yuqing, don't be so bitter. Miss was crying when she was free. If you don't know, you might think something was wrong with you.”
Su Yuqing, who had been heartbroken, couldn't help but raise her head when she heard Man Qing's words.
He forcefully suppressed the crying sound and it turned into sobs that didn't make even the slightest bit of noise.
Manqing also had her eyes turn red, and told the doctor to retire to the outer room to serve her.
He also sat beside Jingjing and held her hand, choking on his words, ”Miss, why are you so anxious? What unhappy things do you have that you can't understand? Why didn't you tell your servant? ”
She lowered her head to wipe away the tears that had secretly fallen and said in a low voice, ”If something were to happen to you, what would happen to me? Where can I find such a good master?”
She paused, letting the bitterness drain from her throat and eyes.
Then he continued, ”It's all because of me. When you woke up, I noticed something was wrong with your face, you wanted to drink ice water, so I stopped you. I gave you such a big cup, otherwise, I'm afraid it wouldn't be this bad …”
After a long while, she comforted Man Qing: ”Lady, don't be sad, it's not your fault. I just hope that the Prince will come back soon and send someone to the palace to get a doctor. Perhaps there's still a glimmer of hope.”
While the two of them were talking, they heard a voice from outside: ”Weeping, what's going on?”
It turned out that Xiahou Ye, who lived next door to him, had been alarmed.
Man Qing covered the expression in her eyes and looked at Xiahou Ye, saying, ”My Young Miss has contracted a fever and can't recover from it. How could she bear the prince going out and sending people to the general's estate but still not return? But what's good? ”
Xiahou Ye Qian frowned and walked forward.
Lowering his head to look at the person lying on the bed, he saw that the face was as white as a ghost's.
Where was there a hint of ruddiness?
Xiahou Ye originally should have hated Jingjing, but he didn't know why.
She looked at the face lying on the bed that was exactly the same as her own, but she felt uncomfortable inside, as if something was blocking her.
After experiencing so many things, Xiahou Ye Qian was very clear on what she was thinking.
It was definitely not because of that face that she did not hate that person.
It was because … This person's character was appreciated by her.
Although she was reluctant to admit it.
Therefore, looking at how sick that person was, it was as if something had blocked her heart.
”Don't cry, this person is fine, I'll cry for you guys even if something happens.”
Although both of them were stunned for a moment at Xiahou Ye's words, they still obediently stopped talking and truly did not say anything.
Xiahou Ye Xi walked in quickly and sat beside Jingjing's bed.
She touched Jingjing's forehead, the boiling heat shocked her.
She said, ”In the morning, she was still fine. But after coming here, she became like this. Who ordered her to do this? Who bullied her like this. I can understand without even using my hands.”
She sighed, looked out at the sky, and said: ”I'm afraid that by this time, the palace gate has already fallen. Even if we hurried to the palace to find a doctor, I'm afraid it would be too late.”
Both Man Qing and Su Yuqing's expression changed when they heard that. When they looked at Jing Jing again, it was already filled with sympathy.
Recalling that damnable Ling'er, he felt even more furious in his heart.
Xiahou Ye Qian pondered for a moment, her expression seemingly deep in thought.
After a while, Xiahou Ye Qian, the person lying on the bed, made a decision that she would regret in the future.
After a moment, he said to the two of them, ”Pack it up, I'll take you to a place.”
A bit of confidence had emerged from the starry sky last night. This morning's weather seemed so fresh and clean.
Li Yue sat on the small tea table in the garden. Ling'er was at the side, helping him remove the thin layer of foam from the tea leaves.
Li Yue looked at the color in the sky again and said to the person beside her, ”Why isn't Manager Zheng here yet?”
While they were talking, Manager Zheng ran in hastily.
He was usually calm and indifferent, but at this moment, a look of worry and unease appeared on his face.
Seeing his expression, Li Yue wrinkled his brow and asked, ”What? She doesn't want to come?”
Manager Zheng shook his head and said, ”No, it's...” ”Esteemed wangfei isn't inside the estate at all.”
”Not in the mansion?”
Li Yue stood up in surprise. He felt that something was wrong with Manager Zheng's words.
”What do you mean?” she asked.
