Chapter 2521 God, treat her well
As soon as I stood up, I felt a weight on my sleeve.
Nan Yan's heart also skipped a beat.
She didn't even dare to turn around immediately, but froze there. She twitched her arm slightly, and felt that her sleeve was still heavy, as if someone was pulling her.
Could it be, could it be——
The blood in her body began to flow faster, and even her breathing and heartbeat stopped.
But I dare not look back.
These days, she had seen Xinping waking up in her dreams countless times. She was ecstatic, but when she woke up, she found her daughter still lying motionless and lifeless, which made her fall from the zenith to the abyss.
That feeling of pain that made her heart burst had tortured her thousands of times.
She can hardly bear it anymore.
She was really scared, afraid that this was just another illusion.
Just as she froze there, motionless, a very small voice, almost as soft as a mosquito's hum, came to her ears -
"Mother... Concubine?"
“……!”
At this moment, she could hear nothing else except these two words.
The blood in her body began to surge, as if a huge wave was rushing over, swallowing her whole and dragging her to the bottom of the sea.
Nan Yan finally plucked up the courage, slowly twisted her neck and turned her head.
The first thing that caught my eye was a small hand.
Compared to its chubby little hand before, this little hand is thinner and you can even see the shape of the joints. At this moment, it is tugging at its sleeve.
But, because she was too weak, she couldn't even pull herself up.
Just relying on its own weight, it held up the sleeve.
Then, Nan Yan saw the familiar little face. It had kept its eyes closed these days, with long eyelashes covering its thin eyelids. The shadows cast by its long eyelashes made the face, which had already become much thinner, appear more defined.
At this moment, those eyes opened.
His originally clear eyes now seemed a little confused, as if he was looking at himself through a layer of fog, confused and unclear.
And those slightly upturned lips were opening and closing gently with an almost imperceptible amplitude.
To himself, he uttered two more words——
"Mother... Concubine..."
Nan Yan gasped.
She rushed to the bedside and stared at her daughter with wide eyes, fearing that if she blinked, the scene before her would disappear without a trace, just like the countless illusions she had seen in the past.
However, tears welled up uncontrollably.
My vision was blurry and I couldn't see clearly.
Nan Yan blinked desperately, even wiping her face with her sleeves without caring about her manners, but tears still burst out of her eyes like a dam bursting, dripping down drop by drop.
With a few slaps, the bullets landed on Xinping's face.
Like a flower nourished by water, her expression became clearer, and her gaze towards Nan Yan was also much brighter.
She spoke again, but because she hadn't spoken for so long, her voice was noticeably hoarse, like a knife scraping against sandstone, dry and uncomfortably harsh.
"Mother—"
After saying that, she started coughing.
"Xin Ping!"
Nan Yan finally spoke her first words, but her throat was so choked by the tears that it was almost impossible to speak. She grabbed her daughter's hand that was tugging at her sleeve, wanting to use more force but afraid of hurting her. To her chagrin, she squeezed it in her palm and pressed it against her cheek.
"Peace of mind...peace of mind..."
She kept shouting.
She cried and laughed at the same time, not knowing what to do. She kept saying, "That's great, that's great... You finally woke up. My daughter, my heart is at peace..."
“…”
This time, a look of surprise appeared on Xinping's face.
She opened her eyes wide and stared at Nan Yan blankly.
Nan Yan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere else?"
“…”
Nan Yan stared at her for a long while before she whispered in a hoarse voice, "So, it's really my mother...?"
Upon hearing this, Nan Yan burst into tears.
Xinping smiled and said softly, "I thought it was... fake again."
At this point, a look of weariness appeared on her face, as if she was about to fall asleep at any moment. Nan Yan was terrified, fearing that she would fall into a coma again, and hurriedly shouted, "Help, help!"
Ruoshui was originally working outside, and when she heard her calling, she immediately ran in.
As soon as he saw Xinping, he jumped up.
"Your Highness?!"
Nan Yan didn't care about anything else and just shouted, "Go call Doctor Wang! Quick!"
|
Soon, Wang Baizhi arrived.
He took her pulse, checked her eyelids, and endured Nan Yan's tense gaze from behind. After a thorough check, he finally turned around and said to Nan Yan, "Your Highness, the princess is fine."
"Really?"
Although her face was covered with tears just now, she no longer had the demeanor of a royal concubine.
But Nan Yan still held back her tears.
Trembling, he asked again, "Is she really okay? Is she healed?"
Wang Baizhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty."
“…”
"In fact, Her Highness's condition had been improving. She hadn't suffered from organ failure or musculoskeletal damage due to her coma, and her pulse had always been normal. She woke up at this time because of Her Highness's own strength."
He smiled and said, "Children's vitality is always strong."
Nan Yan nodded hurriedly.
But seeing Xinping lying on the bed, drowsy and sleepy, she was afraid that she would fall asleep and not wake up, so she kept asking people to disturb her and prevent her from falling asleep. Then she asked again, "But why does she still want to sleep?"
Wang Baizhi said, "Your Majesty, don't worry about that."
“…”
"Although Her Royal Highness is in a coma, it's different from sleeping and resting. It can be said that she has been trying to wake up all this time."
“…”
"Actually, that's what's most physically demanding."
“…”
"She's well now. Your Majesty, please let her sleep. Take good care of yourself. Your Highness will need to recover and maintain good strength."
Hearing this, Nan Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Baizhi took his leave because he had to go back to the imperial pharmacy to prepare medicine for Xinping, so Nan Yan asked Ruoshui to send him out.
Walking back to the bed, she saw Xinping already fast asleep and smiled softly.
God, treat her well.
God is so kind to her.
At this time, Aunt Tongyun whispered beside her, "Your Majesty, do you want to report this to the Emperor?"
Nan Yan looked back at the sky and said, "The Emperor is probably still in the morning court."
"yes."
"Don't bother her. The princess is already awake. Any time is fine."
“…”
"Wait until the court is over, then inform the emperor."
"yes."
Nan Yan asked her to leave as well, and she lay back down on the bed, holding her daughter. She had originally just wanted to accompany her, but before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
When Zhu Feng came hurriedly after the morning court session, this was the scene he saw.
