When I woke up again, it was already the next morning. Apart from feeling a little sore, I didn't feel anything else.
Without the warmth of that person beside her, Su Qian bent her knees and buried her head in them, somewhat doubting her life.
"The princess is awake?" Cuiwei came in after hearing the noise. "What happened?"
She said in a muffled voice, "Nothing."
"Princess, there's no need to coax me." Cuiwei walked over to her and gently stroked Su Qian's back. "Although Cuiwei is not smart, she can understand your joys and sorrows. If you are really unhappy, why not..."
Before he could finish his words, the curtain was violently pulled open.
A dark figure walked in, carrying a captivating aura. "Not as good as what!?"
When Cuiwei saw the person coming, her face turned pale and she saluted him blankly.
"Go on, what's wrong?" Yan Xuanye asked relentlessly.
Hearing this, Su Qian had no choice but to raise her head, "Cuiwei, you go out first."
Cuiwei saw that Yan Xuanye did not stop her, so she bravely retreated.
Su Qian sat there in a daze, looking wilted and depressed, like an eggplant hit by frost, somewhat embarrassed and desperate.
Yan Xuanye couldn't bear it. "What's wrong?"
Su Qian just said lightly, "Nothing."
"You look terrible."
"Maybe it's because I didn't sleep well last night."
Yan Xuanye sat beside her and held her in his arms. Touching her slender waist, he was a little surprised, "You seem to have lost a lot of weight."
Su Qian tilted her head, "It's not like I just lost weight today."
Yan Xuanye was stunned. Her attitude suddenly made him feel uncomfortable.
Su Qian looked towards the window with a vague expression. Now she looked like a bird in a cage, without freedom, yearning for the distance.
Helpless, confused, and a little desperate.
He suddenly felt a little scared, afraid that she would be devastated and unable to recover, or even feel despair towards him. He was afraid that the little affection she had finally developed would eventually disappear completely...
He was scared. "Do you want to go out for a walk? The flowers outside are blooming. Let's go out and see them together."
Su Qian fell back into the quilt and covered herself tightly, "I don't want to go."
Yan Xuanye: "Then..."
She refused, "I'm sleepy, you go out."
Yan Xuanye: “…”
It seemed like this was the first time I was chased away by her.
No matter what happened in the past, no matter whether she was sincere or insincere, she was willing to deal with him. Even if it was perfunctory or just dealing with it, she was at least willing to pay attention to him.
But now...
Yan Xuanye felt a wave of fear and hurriedly hugged her tightly, trying to persuade her kindly, "It's all my fault for making Qianqian angry. If Qianqian really doesn't want a child, then... how about we just take another month to recuperate?"
A month? Su Qian closed her eyes.
In a month, is this for conditioning the body or preparing for pregnancy?
Do you think she's stupid? The prescriptions the doctor gave her were all for strengthening the body and aiding in pregnancy.
If she really believed it, she would probably get pregnant within a month.
Seeing that Su Qian was silent, Yan Xuanye had no choice but to comply with her first to avoid upsetting her. "Qianqian, since you don't want to see me, I'll leave first. I'll come back in the evening."
"Everything in the army is almost ready. We'll probably be able to set off in two or three days. Qianqian, take a good rest first and get enough energy before you can set off."
After a while, Yan Xuanye saw that Su Qian had not responded, so he stood up and walked out.
——
The air was filled with the suffocating smell of fire smoke, and wooden debris and beams kept falling down. Lu Huan was lucky and dodged several times.
However, time passed quickly and I still couldn't find my mother's tablet.
The fire in the ancestral hall was like a man-eating beast, devouring everything in its path.
He was just worried that his mother's tablet had been burned.
There were clusters of flames under my feet. Even though my shoes were wet, the heat waves still continued to transmit through the soles of my shoes. It was like being in a fiery hell, which made me feel despair.
It was because he was useless and failed to protect his mother. It was because he was too stupid and foolish that his mother was left alone and helpless in the general's mansion. If it weren't for him and Lu Guang, she would not have died young due to illness because of the wasted life.
He was filled with remorse.
Just when he was in despair, he finally found the burning tablet in a small corner.
He endured the risk of being burned, took off the outer robe covering his body and wrapped the tablet.
After a while, the remaining moisture on the robe finally extinguished the fire on the tablet.
Lu Huan ran towards the exit holding the tablet. When he was only four or five steps away from the exit, a piece of burnt beam fell down and hit him on the back.
This wooden stake of the beam is different from a small tablet, it has weight.
This blow dealt him a heavy blow, knocking him to the ground. His back was also injured and a piece of skin was burned.
Fortunately, he was not far from the exit and was rescued in time by Zhong Cang and others, so his life was not in danger.
Zhong Cang and others were busy doing emergency treatment for him after his burns. Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, bad news came from the other side.
"What's going on?"
Zhong Cang applied a plaster to him and was wrapping him with bandages. "Just now, there was a noise in the servants' room. I sent someone over to check."
Lu Huan endured the severe pain in his back, his forehead covered in sweat, but he still cared about Su Qian, "Is she okay?"
