Chapter 449 Comfort
"Oh, what did you say?" Zheng Ci said, preparing to get up.
"I'll go with you. It's cold outside. Put on a cloak before you go."
After saying that, he personally put a cloak on Zheng Ci, and the two walked towards the gate side by side.
Lin Huo was pacing back and forth outside the door. When he saw Zheng Ci coming, he was stunned for a few seconds. Then he saw Pei Ji beside her, and his eyes darkened.
"Master Pei, Miss Zheng."
"Master Lin, why are you in such a hurry? What happened?"
Zheng Ci had a bad feeling just now, and this matter might be related to Le Yi.
Lin Huo said, "I'm here for Le Yi. She's in trouble, and I hope Miss Zheng can go and give her some advice. She's a close friend of yours, and while she's turning a deaf ear to me right now, perhaps she'll be able to listen to Miss Zheng a little."
really.
Lin Huo looked anxious, and the worry in his eyes did not seem fake.
Pei Ji, who was standing beside him, looked at him for a while before looking away.
He personally took Zheng Ci's hand and said, "The snow is slippery, I'll go with you."
Zheng Ci's mind was in a mess at the moment. He nodded randomly and headed towards the carriage.
Pei Ji personally walked to the carriage and helped Zheng Ci onto it. Then he turned around and said in a cold tone, "It's cold weather. Next time, before Lord Lin comes, it would be better to send someone to greet him loudly in advance. What do you think?"
Lin Huo was stunned for a moment, then said, "Master Pei is absolutely right."
Pei Ji glanced at him indifferently, turned around and got on the carriage.
As soon as he entered the carriage, he held Zheng Ci's hand in his palm and said, "It's so cold, why don't you bring a hand warmer?"
Zheng Ci: "When I heard him say something happened, I was so confused that I couldn't think about anything else."
Pei Ji turned around and said, "Alin, go back and get the lady's hand warmer, then catch up with us."
"yes."
When A-Lin quickly jumped off the carriage and disappeared from sight, Zheng Ci disagreed, "How could I be so delicate?"
"You're not delicate, I'm just afraid you'll be cold."
Don’t these two sentences mean the same thing?
Zheng Ci was still a little unconvinced.
The rocking of the carriage was so comfortable. It was warm inside, and Zheng Ci almost fell asleep while being rocked.
Pei Ji saw her open her eyes and frowned, "It's still a while. If you're tired, just take a nap."
Zheng Ci tightened his cloak and realized that he was wearing another thick cloak, which belonged to Pei Ji.
"Aren't you cold?"
She reached out to untie it and hand it to Pei Ji, but as soon as she moved, her hand was held down.
"I'm not cold."
The cloak is thick and warm when worn on the body. If you smell it carefully, you can smell the scent of cedar lingering on the tip of the pen.
Zheng Ci felt warm not only physically but also in her heart.
When they arrived at the house that Lin Huo had set up in Beijing, Lin Huo led the way and the two followed behind him, walking quickly in one direction.
When they reached the door, Lin Huocai said, "She hasn't eaten, drunk, or slept for two days. I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on any longer. What's more..."
"What's more?" Zheng Ci asked.
"She is pregnant. The imperial physician just found out."
These words made both of them stand there in shock. Zheng Ci was the first to react, "The first three months of pregnancy are the most dangerous. If she continues like this, not only will she not be able to hold on, she might even lose the baby."
Lin Huo nodded. "My family is a doctor, so I know this. So I want you to persuade her. She suddenly learned the news about her brother and mother, and now she is sad..."
Zheng Ci: "I know."
He immediately opened the door and walked in.
The door quickly closed again.
"Find a few more people to take care of her and stay with her more during her pregnancy. A bad mood will also affect her health."
Pei Ji suddenly spoke, and Lin Huo was taken aback for a moment. "I didn't expect that Lord Pei is so kind."
Pei Ji didn't care about the sarcasm in his words at all. "This is just a little experience I have in taking care of my wife. If it can help you, it's a good thing."
Lin Huo: “”
Was this intentional? No, it was definitely intentional.
He coughed and said, "I understand."
Pei Ji continued, "Lord Lin, I have never thanked you before. Before this, you helped my wife a lot."
Lin Huo frowned. Is this guy still excited?
It's endless.
He just saw Zheng Ci at the door and felt a little emotional and dazed for a moment, and then he started to hold a grudge against her.
"Your Excellency's wife has also helped a lot."
"Well, my wife felt sorry for you, that you have talent but no future, so she helped you. She is also kind to everyone, so please don't be suspicious, Lord Lin."
Who is being overly suspicious? Who is being overly suspicious?
I'm afraid it's Pei Ji himself who is suspicious!
While Lin Huo was worried about Le Yi, he also gained a new understanding of Pei Ji's sharp tongue and powerful words.
No wonder after returning to Beijing, the thing he heard most was that he must not provoke Pei Ji.
The old man in front of him fainted on the spot because of his anger. Lin Huo thought it was an exaggeration. Who in the officialdom is a simple person? How could he faint in anger over a few simple words? How could he stand in the hall?
Now he just wants to say that he is not lying to me.
After Zheng Ci went in, the crying sounds in the room gradually disappeared. Lin Huo knew that it worked. While feeling happy, he also wondered if he cared less about Le Yi.
She also needs the help of Zheng Ci to comfort her heart.
Zheng Ci was still daydreaming like this, and it took about an incense stick of time for him to come out.
"How is she?"
Seeing Lin Huo couldn't wait to ask, Zheng Ci said, "If you want to know, go in and see for yourself."
Lin Huo was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said, "Thank you very much."
As he said this, he lifted his robe and walked in.
Pei Ji looked at her pale face and said distressedly, "You are most afraid of the cold. You have been outside for so long today. When we get back, ask the people downstairs to boil some hot water for you to take a bath."
Zheng Ci smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Pei Ji: "Do you still want to stay here?"
He wants to go back.
He wanted to go back and spend some time with Zheng Ci. He finally got a day off, but he was dragged here. What was going on?
"Go back. You won't need me from now on. Although Le Yi appears optimistic on the surface, she's not weak-minded. She just can't think straight for the moment."
————
"Le Yi."
Le Yi lying on the bed had red and swollen eyes. When she saw Lin Huo, tears started to fall from the corners of her eyes again.
"I, I...how could this happen?"
Lin Huo hugged her and said, "Don't cry. Just say that the imperial concubine and Prince Yu are imprisoned in the palace. The emperor is a kind person now. Maybe he can release them in the future."
"Really?" Le Yi sobbed softly, "If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have left. Am I too selfish? If I had stayed, perhaps I could have helped my brother and my mother."
