Chapter 294 (2/2)
Thin incense scratched her head and reminded her, ”but when I saw that there was a Phoenix Pendant between him and the prospective princess, would it be too cumbersome for us to give him another one?”
”The palace just wants to send a jade pendant. Where do you get so many thoughts,” Li shuse waved impatiently. ”Just tell them to make one. Don't worry about the rest.”
Chu Zongge painfully touched her slightly hot forehead and said softly, ”how are you? Are you better after drinking those potions?”
Xue ronghua only felt that his throat was dry and itchy, and his voice was like torn gauze. Every sentence was very difficult. ”Not much better, I felt a fire in my throat. I always wanted to drink some water to quench my thirst, and I felt cold all over my body.”
Chu Zongge frowned and said anxiously, ”but your forehead is hot. Why is your body cold again?”
Xue ronghua said in a hoarse voice, ”I don't know what's going on. Maybe I'm suffering from the cold. I'll just drink a few bowls of medicine. Don't you have to go to the palace to face the saint tonight. Don't worry about me. Go quickly.”
”How can I rest assured of your appearance now?” Chu Zongge felt into the quilt and touched her cold arm. He couldn't help but have an ominous premonition. ”Why are you so cold? Won't you really be seriously ill?”
Xue ronghua shrank back in embarrassment and said with a bitter smile, ”my body is getting worse and worse. Maybe it's because I don't have much exercise. You'd better not stay with me. My body is cold and cold. How can you get this disease?”
”I'd rather have these diseases myself to avoid the pain you suffer at this time,” Chu Zongge took a deep breath, and the whole person shrank into the quilt and stuck closely with her. ”I won't go to the palace tonight and stay with you.”
Xue ronghua felt his warm body. His cheeks were dyed crimson and turned away shyly. ”How can this be done? The emperor wants to see you. Do you still have to say no? Tonight is specially for you to wash the dust. If you don't go, others will say that I will play a little temper before I pass the door.”
”Is it wrong for me to love my princess?” Chu Zongge slowly hugged her cold body in the quilt and warmed her body with his own heat, ”The emperor likes you very much. If I put off the party because I take care of you, he will understand. It's a big deal. After you get well, we'll go to the palace to greet him. It's not sequential to greet him.”
Xue ronghua blinked and sighed, ”I'm just afraid that others will say behind your back that you have lost etiquette and ignore the emperor for your fiancee.”
”I don't care what others think. Why can't I sweep the world without sweeping a house? I can't even take good care of my fiancee. How can I deal with the country?” Chu Zongge rubbed her red cheek. ”Don't worry, with me, your disease will be better.”
”You should be careful. The imperial doctor said that my cold wind is very likely to infect others,” Xue ronghua subconsciously stayed away from him. ”If you infect yourself, the royal palace will serve two patients.”
Chu Zongge stared at her with spoiled eyes, and his arms hugged her more tightly. She could not refuse and resist. ”If I catch the cold, you don't have to be afraid that no one will accompany you to get sick. Then we will spend the cold together and get better together.”
”What are you talking about?” Xue ronghua couldn't cry or laugh. ”The disease will kill people. You're still here to laugh with me. If you're sick, who will take care of me? If we're all sick, the palace will be too busy.”
”Don't say that word easily,” Chu Zongge stretched out his index finger against her lips, and his eyes became deeper and deeper. ”My strong body and bones are not easy to get sick. Even if the wind and cold of the whole winter in Kyoto accumulate on you, I won't get sick. At most, I just shiver.”
Xue ronghua struggled slightly in his arms. ”Don't hold it so tight. I'm almost out of breath.”
Chu Zongge relaxed her arm, but he still circled her in his arms. ”If I don't hold her tight, when will your cold body heat up? I heard some warlocks say when I was in Xirong that no matter what disease I had, as long as I had a cold sweat first, it would be half better.”
Xue ronghua gently changed his breath, pouted his mouth and said angrily, ”where did you hear the wrong reason? Don't fool me. If I have a cold sweat and haven't recovered, what can I do if my condition gets worse?”
”You are my wife. I dare not harm you,” Chu Zongge rubbed her green silk and whispered softly in her ear. ”Imperial concubine Fu sent things to the palace with her maid, saying it was specially for you to recuperate.”
Xue ronghua raised his eyes and asked, ”how does she know I'm sick?”
”The emperor must have told her, and you have a good relationship with her. You haven't seen her for thousands of years. Naturally, she is very worried about your condition. She picked some treasures from the imperial hospital in the Imperial Palace and sent them to me. I asked the imperial doctor to see them. Although these herbs are valuable, they don't have much effect on your wind cold this time. I'll put them away first.”
Xue ronghua pondered and nodded: ”imperial concubine Fu has always taken good care of me. When I get better, I will go to chenghuan hall to see her immediately after meeting the emperor. I think it has been many years since I met her. Now she is the mother of twins. I'm afraid it has changed a lot.”
