Chapter 129 Caring about other men
"Very good!" Jiang Zhaoyue replied naturally.
"What's so good about it?" Pei Jingzhou asked.
"He is tall, with three-dimensional facial features and a clear face..." Before he could finish his words, Jiang Zhaoyue suddenly felt a chill around him.
She pulled Pei Jingzhou's hand away and looked up to see his frosty face, as if he wanted to freeze everyone else to death, but it matched his cold and indifferent temperament too well.
Like the clear sky and the white snow on the mountain top.
Handsome and dazzling.
She couldn't help but say, "However, when it comes to good looks, Your Highness is still the best."
"You only know how to say sweet words." Pei Jingzhou rolled his eyes at her.
Jiang Zhaoyue held up his hand and swore, "Heaven and earth can bear witness, every word I say is from the bottom of my heart."
Pei Jingzhou pressed her hand down and ignored her.
Jiang Zhaoyue directly hugged Pei Jingzhou's thin waist, rested her chin on his chest, looked at him with curved eyebrows, and whispered: "Your Highness, you are really good-looking. I can't get enough of looking at you every day."
Although Jiang Zhaoyue had all sorts of intimate actions, affectionate names, and sweet words in private, there was an unconscious Chen Xuanmo and the doctor from the Lu Mansion who was concentrating on treating his injuries in the guest room, so it was not suitable to mess around.
Pei Jingzhou glared at her and signaled her to be more restrained.
Jiang Zhaoyue understood what he meant. She stood up straight and hummed softly, then muttered, "Anyway, Your Highness is the most beautiful person in the world."
This... is praising someone in a coquettish and angry way.
Pei Jingzhou couldn't help but turn his head to look at her. She had fair skin, delicate features, and a charming brightness about her. No matter what she did, she was loved by everyone.
He retracted his gaze and said, "I understand."
"Hmph." Jiang Zhaoyue responded.
Pei Jingzhou couldn't help but look sideways.
Jiang Zhaoyue snorted again, then turned around and faced him with the back of her head.
"What's wrong?" Pei Jingzhou looked puzzled.
"You just glared at me." Jiang Zhaoyue complained.
"...I, I...it's my fault." Pei Jingzhou took the initiative to admit his mistake.
Jiang Zhaoyue turned around and glared at Pei Jingzhou.
Pei Jingzhou was puzzled: "What are you doing?"
"Stare back." Jiang Zhaoyue said.
So... so childish, but so cute.
Pei Jingzhou couldn't help but chuckle.
Jiang Zhaoyue just wanted to have some fun with Pei Jingzhou to ease the tense atmosphere.
It will be fine once the fuss is over.
She looked back at the bed. Doctor Lu was bent over and busy, obscuring Chen Xuanmo's condition. But she still saw the blood in the basin beside her and couldn't help but frown.
"Let's go out and wait." Pei Jingzhou said when he saw this.
Jiang Zhaoyue nodded.
The two walked out, and Pei Jingzhou asked Pei Jing to help.
Pei Jing had gone through many hardships and dangers with Pei Jingzhou and was very familiar with the injuries caused by weapons. He immediately walked into the guest room.
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou waited in the corridor for a while. The rain gradually subsided. When they were about to go to Yin'an Garden to check on Pei Jingpeng and Qingluo, the doctor from the Lu Mansion came out.
"Doctor Lu, how is Chen Xuanmo?" Jiang Zhaoyue turned around and asked.
The doctor from the Lu Mansion bowed and said, "My Lady Princess, Young Master Chen's condition is not optimistic."
Jiang Zhaoyue's expression darkened: "What do you mean?"
The doctor from the Lu residence replied, "Young Master Chen has numerous knife and arrow wounds on his body. Although I have bandaged him, he has lost too much blood and has started to have a fever."
A fever caused by a serious injury could easily lead to infection and death. Jiang Zhaoyue's heart tightened and he asked hurriedly, "What should we do?"
"Before bandaging him, I already gave him some pills to clear away heat and remove toxins. If his fever doesn't go down, he might not make it to the evening."
Can't make it to the night?
How is that possible?
Chen Xuanmo is the male lead!
The male lead!
The hero lives happily with the heroine in the synopsis!
If he died, wouldn't the world collapse?
Jiang Zhaoyue didn't believe it: "He can definitely make it through, right?"
Doctor Lu had no confidence at all.
Pei Jingzhou didn't want to see a life lost like this, so he asked, "Doctor Lu, is there any other way?"
"Give him some fever-reducing medicine." said the doctor from Lu Mansion.
Jiang Zhaoyue said: "Then feed it again!"
"Giving him some more fever-reducing medicine will have two results. The first is to reduce the fever, and the second is to make his condition worse." Doctor Lu expressed his concerns.
"Hey, the situation is already very bad now." Jiang Zhaoyue hoped that Chen Xuanmo would have the aura of the male protagonist and be able to get through this.
With the Crown Princess' words, Doctor Lu was willing to give it a try: "Yes, I will go back now to get the medicine and boil it."
Seeing the doctor from the Lu Mansion walking out, Jiang Zhaoyue took a step to follow him.
Pei Jingzhou reached out and grabbed Jiang Zhaoyue's arm: "Let Xiangqiao go, we'll go see Xiaopeng and the others first, and come back later."
Jiang Zhaoyue hesitated for a moment and followed Pei Jingzhou to the bedroom in Yin'an Garden.
Qingluo changed into comfortable and clean clothes, sat on the small stool in front of the bed, holding a book, reading quietly, and occasionally looking up at Pei Jingpeng on the bed.
"How is Xiaopeng?" Pei Jingzhou asked.
Upon hearing this, Qingluo hurriedly stood up and saluted.
"No need to be so polite. How is Xiaopeng?" Jiang Zhaoyue asked.
"To answer your Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, the three imperial doctors just took the young master's pulse again and said that he has calmed down. He just vomited blood this morning and injured his body. He needs to sleep a little longer." Qingluo said.
"That means he doesn't know you're back yet?" Jiang Zhaoyue asked.
"I have been talking to him just now, he should know." Pei Jingpeng had fainted many times in the East Palace before. He said that sometimes he seemed to have fainted, but he could actually hear the sounds outside.
So as soon as Qingluo came back, she reported to him, changed her clothes and stayed by his side, just to let him sleep peacefully and recover.
"That's good." Jiang Zhaoyue nodded.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Crown Princess, please take a seat. I'll get you some water." Qing Luo placed the book on the bedside table and walked out.
"Don't go." Suddenly a hoarse and weak voice sounded.
Qingluo paused and turned around to see Pei Jingpeng on the bed with his eyes open. Her eyes immediately turned red: "Young Master."
"Qingluo." Pei Jingpeng wanted to sit up.
Qingluo hurried forward and gently pressed him down: "You are still very weak, lie down first."
"Don't go." Pei Jingpeng whispered.
Qingluo asked softly, "Do you know I'm back?"
"Yeah, but I can't wake up." Pei Jingpeng really heard Qingluo talking in his ear, and he remembered to talk to her.
But his body wouldn't allow it, so he listened to her and slept well to recover as soon as possible. At this moment, he felt her suddenly get up, put the book on the bed, and walked out. He didn't know where she was going.
He was terrified, and woke up suddenly, saying again, "Don't go."
"Well, I won't leave." Qingluo understood his thoughts and wiped away her tears: "I will never leave again."
"Really?" Pei Jingpeng went to hold her hand.
Qingluo held it tightly: "Really."
Pei Jingpeng was like a child afraid of being abandoned: "You can't lie to me again, you can't sneak away again."
Qingluo nodded gently: "Well, I won't do it again."
"Then wait until I feel better, and then we'll go find my sister together."
"good."
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou stood aside, watching the two of them talking in low voices with their foreheads touching. They sighed and lamented. After a while, they walked out of the bedroom together and asked three imperial doctors to enter the bedroom to check Pei Jingpeng's physical condition.
After a while, three imperial doctors came out and said that Qingluo was the best medicine for Pei Jingpeng. As soon as she came back, Pei Jingpeng's physical condition stabilized and he would be fine if he took good care of himself.
Jiang Zhaoyue and Pei Jingzhou breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
The three imperial doctors continued to prepare medicine.
"Then let's go back to Linhuayuan quickly." Jiang Zhaoyue walked out.
"What are you in such a hurry for?" Pei Jingzhou asked.
"See how Chen Xuanmo is doing."
Pei Jingzhou's face instantly turned sour when he heard this. He wanted to say something, but Jiang Zhaoyue had no intention of listening to him at all. She walked out of Yin'an Garden and disappeared.
He stopped walking suddenly.
"Your Highness." Pei Jing called out curiously upon seeing this.
Pei Jingzhou asked unhappily: "What are you doing?"
