Shangguan Qingyue succeeded, and he smiled so proudly. When he sat by the window and waved goodbye to his brothers and sisters, he said seriously, "Dade sisters, don't worry, Yue'er will definitely take good care of mother!"
"When mother and I are not around, you all have to behave well and don't be naughty. And don't forget to study, Erdede... don't forget..." The little fellow thought about what his mother had said in the past, and [I remember now!]
"Don't forget to rest!"
"Big sister, you have to practice the piano well, and San Dede, you have to listen to daddy!"
Zhao Ying listened to the little guy beside her saying all his words, and she had nothing to say, feeling both amused and helpless.
She had no choice but to ask Shangguan Shu and Empress Xiaomin to take good care of the four children.
Queen Xiaomin was reluctant to let her daughter go. What was going on? She asked her sweet and soft daughter to do such a hard job. She heard that the mosquitoes in Dali were as big as fists. What if Ying'er was scared?
The palms and backs of the hands are all made of flesh, and all of a sudden, both the palms and backs of the hands are gone. Empress Xiaomin felt a little resentful towards Emperor Jianxi for insisting on keeping her to take care of him, and she also wanted to go with him!
It's too late to say anything now. A group of people left the capital under the stars and moon.
Zhao Ying and Shangguan Qingyue were in the same carriage, while Zhao Xi, Qian Chengluo and the maid who served them were in the same carriage.
The accompanying imperial doctors shared a carriage.
There are also a hundred or so palace masters, maids and royal chefs...
The carriage was bumpy and the journey was long. Zhao Ying thought she couldn't bear it, but when she thought about what she was going to do in Dali, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep.
Shangguan Qingyue was also unable to sleep due to the novelty of the trip; she had never been so far away before! Along the way, the little one was extremely curious and kept asking questions. Zhao Ying patiently answered her questions. It was like mother and daughter were on a vacation.
The situation on Zhao Xi's side is not so good.
He was already poisoned and extremely weak, and the ride was bumpy, which was extremely painful. Unfortunately, no one could take his place, so he had to bear it all by himself.
Zhao Xi was not in a good condition, but he didn't want to trouble his damn sister. He felt that seeing him in pain, she would probably laugh at him in her heart.
To her, he was just a strange brother, not as good as Zhao Cong, who grew up with her.
Zhao Xi asked the imperial physician and the maids to keep it a secret and stopped for a rest. Zhao Ying wanted to come and see him, but he refused to let her. It was not until the afternoon of the next day that the maid came to him crying and told Zhao Ying that Zhao Xi was not well.
Zhao Ying and Shangguan Qingyue rushed over and found that Zhao Xi's face was as pale as paper, with dark circles under his eyes and bones faintly visible on his cheeks. He had just vomited and was unconscious.
The imperial physician said that Zhao Xi had been unable to eat or sleep for the past few days and had vomited countless times. Although the poison was not fatal, if he continued like this, his body would probably collapse first.
It doesn’t matter if your body collapses, the toxins will immediately attack your heart!
Zhao Ying was shocked and quickly asked someone to boil medicine and porridge, and also to get some candied fruits so that she could feed him.
Qian Chengluo helped the unconscious Zhao Xi up. Zhao Ying picked up a spoon and fed the medicine to Zhao Xi's mouth. Zhao Xi couldn't drink it, so Zhao Ying patiently coaxed him, "Brother, drink some... After drinking it, the illness will be cured and you won't feel uncomfortable anymore..."
"elder brother……"
"elder brother……"
Qian Chengluo sneered in his heart, thinking, does Princess Chengqian think that they didn’t feed her with their own hands?
Qian Chengluo felt a heavy burden on his shoulders and said in a bad tone, "Princess, you should think of another way. The prince is unconscious and can't hear you calling him..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Xi's lips opened.
Thousand Cities Fall: ...
Zhao Ying was overjoyed and quickly poured the medicine into her mouth, spoonful by spoonful. As she poured it in, she said, her voice tinged with tears, "I knew you could hear me!"
"Don't be afraid, brother. You will get better. Ying'er will be with you. You won't be alone anymore. You have the Emperor, the Queen, and me, your sister. You also have many lovely nephews..."
When a certain nephew heard her mentioned, he leaned forward and said in a baby voice, "Uncle, you have to be good. If you're not, Yue'er will go back and tell the royal grandfather and the royal grandmother, and they will spank you!"
Zhao Ying said softly, "Just hold on tight. You've made it. No one will bully you anymore. No one will look down on you anymore. You are second only to the first person in the Great Chu State, and above everyone else..."
"elder brother……"
Zhao Xi felt suffocated. He couldn't breathe, and his neck felt like someone was pinching him. The surroundings were damp and hot. He tried to move, but he touched the scorching iron net...
Cage... He was trapped in a cage again...
He struggled desperately, trying to escape. Suddenly, a ray of light tore through the darkness before him. Then, the dense voices of people around him poured into his ears. He stared blankly at the crack...
There are yellow robes and gorgeous platforms, fresh flowers and jade beads.
Bright eyes, white teeth, radiant brilliance...
It turns out that this world is full of light, so lively, so prosperous, and in this world, there are such exquisite and beautiful people...
That light remained in his mind and could not be shaken off.
That person is also engraved in his heart, forever fresh in his mind.
She was the light he glimpsed by chance, but also the demon that dragged him down to hell...
He huddled in one place, hugged himself, and let the hot tears flow down his face.
Sister...that's his sister...
But he would never hear her call him brother again.
Such beauty is isolated from him.
"Brother? Brother?"
Zhao Xi slowly opened his eyes, his gaze blurry and confused.
The corners of his lips lifted up slightly, barely perceptible.
Seeing that he opened his eyes, Zhao Ying smiled sweetly, her bright eyes full of joy. She hurriedly picked up the candied fruit from the maid's plate next to her, and without any hesitation, she took her hand and stuffed it into Zhao Xi's mouth as if in a sneak attack.
"Eating a candied fruit won't make it bitter, and the sourness will help with nausea. I'm sure you won't vomit this time!"
Shangguan Qingyue's two little hands grasped the edge of the bed, with only her head exposed. Her face looked a little unhappy. She pouted and muttered, "Uncle, you have to get better soon! This is the candied fruit that mother made for me. I brought a jar with me, and I'm giving them all to you..."
[You'd better not pretend to be sick and eat all my candied fruit...]
Qian Chengluo frowned, seemingly dissatisfied. Zhao Ying was truly fooled. Zhao Xi not only drank the medicine, but also opened his eyes. This, this, this...
The imperial physicians were also stunned. Imperial Physician Xing flattered, "The princess is truly the reincarnation of Hua Tuo..."
Zhao Ying didn't refuse. She stood up, sneered, and said with a slight sternness on her face, "It's not that I'm Hua Tuo, but I have too many children to look after. You old doctors are used to sitting on the high pedestal, talking about vague things all day long, and even using poison as an excuse, but you can't even do the most basic thing of treating an illness and giving medicine. If I hadn't come, wouldn't Brother Ding, the prince, have died at your hands?"
"Princess, calm down..."
Kneel down and make a ball.
Zhao Ying scolded them a few words and asked them to leave.
She turned to the confused Zhao Xi and said, "Brother, let's rest here for a day. When you feel better, we can continue our journey..."
While Zhao Ying was speaking, Shangguan Qingyue took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to her, sneaked up to the honey pot, hugged it to her chest and protected it.
[There's still some left, I'm going to secretly eat it under the covers! ]
