Chapter 107 Pie in the Sky
Xie Tingzhou reached out and grabbed her. People who practice martial arts have more sensitive five senses than ordinary people. She didn't wake up despite such a big noise.
Xie Tingzhou helped her lean on his legs and called her, "Shiyu, wake up?"
Shen Yu didn't respond.
Touching her forehead, it was as hot as burning charcoal
Xie Tingzhou frowned and lifted the curtain and asked, "How long will it take to get into the city?"
"About half an hour." Xi Feng looked sideways while riding on the horse.
In the carriage, Shiyu was lying on Xie Tingzhou's legs, and Xie Tingzhou held his back with one hand, almost half hugging him.
This scene made Xi Feng turn his head away immediately, and he didn't dare to look at it again.
Xie Tingzhou ordered, "Speed up."
After that, he lowered the curtain.
After Xi Feng gave the order, the carriage suddenly sped up, shaking and not very stable, and Shen Yu also slid down from his legs.
Xie Tingzhou sighed, hugged her and moved up a little, and took the pillow and stuffed it behind her waist.
Her hair was still wet, Xie Tingzhou untied her hair and soaked the water on it with his wide sleeves bit by bit.
The city gate was ablaze, and two teams of guards were stationed at the gate.
The city gate lieutenant Ren Yongyi walked back and forth countless times in front of the gate, looking up countless times.
He was called up in his wife's bed. He heard that Xie Tingzhou left the city in the middle of the night, and he was scared and ran straight to the city gate.
Everyone knew what position Xie Tingzhou had in the capital. The prince of Beilin could not neglect him, but he had to stay in the capital to be safe.
Ren Yongyi did not dare to report it, for fear of making a mistake, and for fear that Xie Tingzhou would really run back to Beilin, and then his family would not have enough heads to chop off.
"Boss, they are coming!" The guard on the city gate shouted excitedly.
Ren Yongyi looked up and saw a team of people riding horses and rushing over, as if they were a little anxious.
Xifeng and two guards ran ahead and reined in their horses in front of the city gate. "Captain, the prince wants to enter the city. Please open the gate for convenience."
He spoke politely, and Ren Yongyi didn't want to embarrass him, but he didn't dare to neglect his duty.
Ren Yongyi clasped his fists, "It's natural for the prince to enter the city, but we have to make sure that the person in the carriage is the prince himself."
Xifeng frowned and was about to speak when he heard Xie Tingzhou in the carriage say, "Entering the city is important."
Ren Yongyi walked to the front of the carriage and said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry."
Then he reached out and lifted the curtain.
This look scared Ren Yongyi.
Xie Tingzhou was leaning in the carriage, holding a person in his arms. The person was wrapped tightly in a cloak, with only his hair hanging outside. A slender hand was exposed at the corner of the cloak.
Before Ren Yongyi had time to take a closer look, Xie Tingzhou's eyes had moved from the face of the person in his arms to him.
"Has Lieutenant Ren confirmed it?"
Although there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips, Ren Yongyi was frightened and hurriedly lowered the curtain.
Ren Yongyi and others were not here to embarrass Xie Tingzhou, and they were more willing to give him face at this time.
"Open the door!"
As soon as the door opened, a guard whipped his horse whip and rushed out like an arrow from a string, reporting to the palace in advance.
The palace opened the side door, and the carriage went straight to the palace. It stopped when it was close to Qingpuju and could not enter.
The doctor was already guarding Qingpuju, and Zhongbo also got up from the bed in the middle of the night. He thought that Xie Tingzhou's old illness had relapsed, but when the curtain was lifted, he actually carried someone down.
Xie Tingzhou carried Shen Yu and walked quickly. After entering the door, he put her on his couch, waved his hand to lower the curtain, and ordered the doctor to come in to take her pulse.
Shen Yu's fever got worse and worse along the way, and there were dry cuts on her lips.
Zhong Bo did not dare to go in without permission, so he pulled Xi Feng and asked, "Who is it? Who did His Highness bring back?"
Xi Feng told the truth, "Shi Yu."
Zhong Bo was prepared, but he was still so angry that he staggered and stamped his feet and said, "This, this is not a good thing! It's a sin."
Inside the house.
The doctor took the pulse and said, "From the pulse, it should be that he has been depressed for a long time. This person's body is not necessarily very strong. He relies on his willpower to support him. If he is suppressed too much, the depression accumulated in his body will be like closing a gate to block a river. Once the spirit is relaxed, the river bank will collapse and it will be fierce. It is actually a good thing to burn it."
Xie Tingzhou knew what it was. She had been worried about this case. Now that the verdict has been made, she is also relaxed.
He looked at Shen Yu's face and asked coldly, "She has already lost consciousness due to the fever, so why let her keep on having the fever?"
The doctor hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. In fact, it's a good thing to have a fever. This disease should be relieved rather than blocked. It will be fine if the internal fire is dispersed. Otherwise, it may become a serious illness if it is too deep."
Xie Tingzhou was upset and his face was very gloomy.
The doctor said, "I will prescribe two prescriptions, one for internal use and one for external use. The external use will be boiled into a decoction for bathing."
He walked to the table, wrote down two prescriptions, and then went out to give them to Xifeng, and gave him instructions on how to use the medicine.
Xie Tingzhou took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Shen Yu's forehead. After thinking for a moment, he raised his voice and said, "Uncle Zhong."
Uncle Zhong was very depressed at the moment, wondering if he would have a fever like Shi Yu one day if he continued to be so depressed.
Hearing His Highness calling him, Zhong Bo hurriedly put his expression in order and walked in, "Your Highness."
Xie Tingzhou said calmly, "Find two maids and bring reliable old people from Beilin."
Zhong Bo asked, "May I ask Your Highness, what are you going to do with the person?"
Xie Tingzhou lifted the bed curtain and said, "Take care of her."
Zhong Bo turned his head and looked. Isn't the person lying on the bed a girl?
After a closer look, why does she look so much like Shi Yu.
Zhong Bo almost fell down, "Is this... Shi Yu?"
Xie Tingzhou said "hmm".
Zhong Bo forgot to think for a moment, "She, she, she is..."
Xie Tingzhou nodded slightly, and seeing that Zhong Bo was still standing there, he asked: "Is there a problem?"
"No!" Zhong Bo's voice was like a bell, "Absolutely not, Lao Zhong, I will arrange it now!"
Zhong Bo went out and looked up at the sky. It was pitch black and he couldn't see anything. How could God be so accurate, and smashed the pie on his head and the head of the Beilin Palace.
Originally, when he was in Beilin, the prince was not close to women. People outside said that he lingered in brothels, but that was all pretending. He had to change the water three times when he came back to bathe.
The old prince was worried at the time, and when the prince came to Beijing, he was worried that he would be cut off without saying anything.
The old prince once said: "It doesn't matter if the sleeve is cut off, the problem is that you must not be extinct."
Now, it seems that the prince has chosen the future prince's concubine without saying anything.
I originally thought that since the prince was so outstanding, he would definitely find a lady who could match him. Now, I’m thankful that it’s a woman.
Zhong Bo happily arranged the staff and brought them over soon. He exceeded the quota by bringing four people. Two maids were too negligent for the future prince’s wife.
“Your Highness, the people have been brought here.”
Xie Tingzhou walked out of the inner room, glanced at the maids, and ordered: “Prepare the bathtub and serve her bathing. Take care of yourself when you see or hear anything.”
Zhong Bo hurriedly said: “Your Highness, don’t worry. I have already told you when I came, but…”
“What?” Xie Tingzhou glanced over.
Zhong Bo was a little embarrassed, and he asked in a low voice: “But, for bathing, won’t Your Highness come in person?”
Xie Tingzhou: “…”
Zhong Bo was embarrassed by his glance, and cleared his throat and said: “I’m a little too hasty, sorry, sorry.”
