Chapter 394 Yixiu 12
"Wind chill?"
Yinzhen's head seemed to hurt even more. "Is it serious?"
"They said... they called a doctor right after they got home. Judging from Xiuxia's expression, it seems quite serious."
Xiyu was not very sure. After all, after Gan's accident, Fu Jin fainted due to anger. They were busy calling doctors from everywhere and sent people to tell the prince about this. They had no time to visit Yixiu who had caught a cold. Therefore, it was not until Yinzhen asked her that Xiyu realized that she knew nothing about the situation in Chixinzhai.
He answered a few questions with gritted teeth, but he knew in his heart that this kind of answer would definitely make the prince even more unhappy.
"Is this how you serve Madam Fu Jin? No wonder someone as cunning and treacherous as Madam Yun could hide by Madam Fu Jin's side for so many years."
Yinzhen was indeed dissatisfied. In fact, if he had not been afraid of making too big a move, nearly half of the people in Ninghua Hall would have been beaten to death by him. At this moment, he only dealt with the primary person, Nanny Yun, because of his long-term relationship with the concubine and the fact that the family scandal should not be made public.
The four maids kneeling in a row dared not say a word. Having followed the concubine for so many years, her kindness and tolerance, coupled with the prince's unconditional preference for Ninghua Hall, had made them gradually lose their caution. So when Nanny Yun said that she wanted to use Gan to make an example of someone, none of them spoke out to stop her. At this moment, thinking of Nanny Yun who had passed away, they felt a thousand pounds in their hearts and their bodies were shaking.
"Forget it, Su Peisheng, take the things and go check on Gan Shi. Then send someone to check on Concubine Nara's health."
Yinzhen waved his hand impatiently, sat down beside the bed, and looked at Rouze, whose face was pale. Worry overwhelmed everything. He took the prepared medicine himself, hugged Rouze, and slowly fed it to her.
But after a moment, perhaps the medicine took effect, Rouze, who had been lying in bed, finally moved her heavy eyelids and slowly opened her eyes.
The moment she saw Yinzhen, she felt a flash of relief in her heart. Then she thought of the news she heard before she fell into a coma. In the end, she could not bear the torture of her conscience and sank into Yinzhen's arms, sobbing: "Silang...Silang, Wanwan is sorry for you...I, it's all my fault. I killed your child..."
Rouze's behavior actually made Yinzhen feel pity for her. He quickly hugged Rouze in his arms and coaxed her. After finally coaxing her to calm down, Su Peisheng walked in with a troubled look on his face. "My Lord, I sent someone to check on Concubine Nara. They said she was caught in the wind this morning. It's not serious. She just needs to stay indoors for a few days... But Concubine Gan..."
"Why are you hesitating? Just say it."
Yinzhen looked down at Rouze, and sure enough, he saw that she was leaning against him cautiously, but her eyes were looking at Su Peisheng, as if she was afraid and ashamed.
"Concubine Gan suddenly lost her child and was overwhelmed with emotion. She refused to take the medicine and insisted on seeing you."
"She won't take the medicine. Could it be that the servants don't have hands?"
Yinzhen's personality was such that what he hated most in his life was being threatened by others. Even at court, he'd been forced to give in for the sake of power, a fact that had always gnawed at his heart. He'd endured it for years, yet still not forgotten his revenge. And now, while he was secretly furious, a woman threatened him with her life.
If Gan Shi wasn't there, Yinzhen would have ordered someone to tie her up and force the drug into her mouth. He just wanted to keep her alive first, and he wouldn't care whether Gan Shi was dead or alive afterwards.
However, Rouze in his arms was still feeling guilty. After hearing what Su Peisheng said, he gently advised: "She is like this because she lost her child. Please forgive her this time, Silang."
"You should have a good rest. Your body is in such a state, why are you still thinking about others?" Yinzhen did not respond to her. Instead, he coaxed Rouze to sleep. After thinking about it, he decided to go to Zhixinzhai.
As soon as Yinzhen entered, he smelled the familiar bitter smell of medicine and took a look:
Yixiu was lying on the bed on her side wearing only her inner clothes, her black hair was spread out, and she was wearing only a white fox fur bunny, which made her face look small and even more pitiful.
"No, I haven't drunk this bitter medicine for so long. It's only been two days since I stopped. Take it away quickly."
"There's nothing we can do about it. Who told you to get up so early to see the snow? A cold doesn't just play tricks on you. Concubine, you've only just recovered. Thinking about Prince Honghui... and the prince and the concubine, it's not good to have them worrying about you right now."
Jianqiu stood by the bed, holding the medicine, and pleaded earnestly, until her mouth dried. Only then did Yixiu reluctantly turn away and say, "Then go get the preserves we made yesterday... Why is Prince here now? Is my sister and Concubine Gan all right?"
Yinzhen came over and sat beside her, taking the medicine in his own hand and motioning Jianqiu to fetch the preserves. Hearing her question, he said unhappily, "You also know that there's a commotion going on with Fu Jin and Gan Shi? Yet you're joining them in the fun. Honghui's already grown up, and you, as his mother, can still catch a cold from playing around? Be careful, or the child will laugh at you when he gets back."
"I didn't want to be sick, I can only blame it on bad luck. As for Honghui, he is the most filial. Seeing that I was sick, he was only worried. How could he laugh at me?"
Yixiu spoke frankly and did not accept Yinzhen's CPU at all. Seeing that he stirred the medicine and wanted to feed it to her, she hurriedly reached out to take the medicine bowl, pinched her nose and drank it all.
"Huh...Jianqiu, quick, candied fruit!"
After picking a few from the dish and putting them in her mouth to get rid of the bitterness, Yixiu breathed a sigh of relief. She looked up and found Yinzhen staring at her, wondering what he was thinking.
"Why are you looking at me like that, Lord Beile? But is there anything wrong with me?"
"I just looked at you and felt that your temperament seemed to have changed a lot."
She was more relaxed and at ease than before, and she was no longer so cautious and rigid when they were together.
If Yixiu were to say so, it would mean that she didn't take Yinzhen seriously anymore. But from Yinzhen's perspective, it seemed that Yixiu had finally come to her senses and realized that being together made him feel comfortable.
"Really? I don't feel that way. Lord Beile, did you come here today to give me any instructions?"
Not wanting to dwell on useless topics, Yixiu asked directly, which made Yinzhen silent for a while.
What was he doing here? He was there to see how Yixiu was doing, and to tell her that when she recovered, she could continue to help Fu Jin with the household.
But looking at the weak-smiling concubine on the bed, and thinking about her health over the past six months, the impression of her being frail and sickly had already formed in his mind. He hesitated for a moment, but still did not say this, and only said:
"I heard you were sick, so I came to see you. I'll also go see Gan later."
"Then you can go on your own, my Lord. I'm only slightly ill, so don't delay your Lord's work. Besides, Gan has lost her child, so I'm afraid she's also waiting for you."
Yixiu immediately waved her hand very kindly and said goodbye to Yinzhen in a reasonable manner.
