I opened a tea shop in Bianjing

Chapter 57 Illness
The maids sleeping at the door yawned.They opened their eyes and saw that the sky was already bright, so they felt that something was wrong, so they hurriedly got up and went to the house to have a look.

"Miss Linglong!" They hugged and yelled, and crowded to the door.

Mo Yunxiao was in a daze, turned around slowly, and asked while yawning, "What's wrong?"

Her tone was very vague, obviously she was still asleep, the maids looked at each other, and each breathed a sigh of relief. "The little ones slept like dead pigs, you have neglected the girl." A maid said: "The king has repeatedly told you not to neglect the girl." She bit her lips lightly, then walked up to her with small steps, Half coquettishly said: "Girl, the little lives of the little ones are in the girl's hands, and the king begs the girl to cover up more."

Mo Yunxiao smiled faintly, and said: "I slept soundly this time, and as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw you standing in front of me. You took good care of me and never neglected me. Why should I cover it up for you?"

The maid giggled, and finally let go of her heart.She glanced around and saw that Mo Yunxiao looked tired, her eyes were red and swollen, especially there were faint traces of tears around her eye sockets.

So she asked with concern: "Girl, have you ever cried?"

"Ah?" Mo Yunxiao was startled, wrapped the quilt tighter, and quickly said: "No, no. You must have read it wrong!" Then she hurriedly turned around and said, "I'm still very tired, you guys Go out first."

The maid could obviously hear her sobbing a little, but since she didn't say anything, she didn't want to ask too much, so she just responded, turned and left.

The maids left the room, chattering like a flock of birds under the window.

"Miss Linglong is crying? Why is that?", "What's so strange about this, the girls who came before were all crying, and it will be over in two days.", "Sister Coral, what did Miss Linglong say just now? ?”

"Okay, okay, stop guessing." It was the maid who came up to ask Mo Yunxiao just now who spoke: "People have their own opinions about their affairs, and I want you to gossip here! Take your own errands as your own. Well, it's business."

Mo Yunxiao curled up under the blanket, crying while listening to their conversation.She closed her eyes, but tears overflowed her eyes uncontrollably.She found that since she traveled to this parallel universe, her lacrimal glands became very developed, as if she wanted to make up for the tears from the previous twenty years at once.

Just one minute before the maids woke up, she hurried back, and before they had time to take off their clothes, they all rushed over.I had no choice but to close my clothes and get into the bed, but luckily I didn't show any flaws.

This night made Mo Yunxiao exhausted and sad.At this moment, she could relax a little bit, so her tired body dragged her spirit to sink into the boundless black dream again, even though her face was still stained with tears.

However, this dream is surging.She is like a small boat surging back and forth in this vast ocean.The violent storm came in an instant, accompanied by a terrible and shrill roar.

She was talking terribly in her sleep, and her forehead was dripping with sweat.She gasped again and again, struggling in this dream.For a while, she seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar, and her joints were shaking; for a while, she seemed to be running towards the crater of a hot wave, and a hot air was entangled in her chest, making her breathless.

"No! No..." She suddenly called out, breaking free from this terrible dream.She touched her already drenched forehead and chest, and then turned her head to look at the bloody red sunlight through the window. It turned out to be another nightmare.

She calmed down for a while, but she was exhausted.Her body was as if she had just climbed a mountain. From head to toe, there was not a single muscle that belonged to her.

"Miss Linglong, are you awake?" The maid Shan Shan came from behind the screen.But as soon as she came over, she was shocked: "Ah! What's wrong with you, girl?"

Mo Yunxiao was a little surprised and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Why...you look like you've just been fished out of the water." Shan Shan hurried over, put the back of her hand on her forehead, and shouted hurriedly: "Yo! It's so hot! Miss Linglong, you have a fever !"

"Ah?" Mo Yunxiao was taken aback, and then realized.My limbs are weak and my body is cold, which is indeed the symptom of a cold and fever.

Coral can't hesitate. "I'll tell the king to go." After she finished speaking, she ran out quickly.Mo Yunxiao was so exhausted that she didn't even have the strength to call her.

After a while, I heard Zhao Si's voice.

"Didn't you say that you need to take good care of it? How could you have a fever?" Zhao Si's tone was anxious and somewhat reproachful, and Shan Shan, who was beside him, hurriedly begged for forgiveness: "Your Majesty, forgive me, it's because of my negligence."

"A momentary negligence? Hmph! This whipping is for you to remember. If the girl is all right, it's fine. If something goes wrong, I will make up for it twice." He opened the door and entered after speaking.

Mo Yunxiao was lying on the bed pale, her lips were dry and cracked, and there were bags under her eyes that were like pearls. Seeing Zhao Si, she was about to struggle to sit up, but was stopped by Zhao Si.

"Lie down quickly." Zhao Si sat by her bed, then tucked the corner of the quilt for her, and asked with concern: "How do you feel?"

Mo Yunxiao smiled wryly, and said, "If I say it's okay, will Your Majesty believe it?"

Zhao seemed a little caught off guard, and after a long pause, he asked Shan Shan: "Have you gone to call the doctor?"

"The magpie is calling," Coral replied.

"You only came for one night, how could you be so seriously ill?" Zhao seemed to be asking Mo Yunxiao or talking to himself.

"Thanks to your majesty's concern." Mo Yunxiao paused, and then said: "Maybe it's because I was born to work hard, I can suffer, but I can't enjoy happiness."

Zhao Si smiled lightly, comforting her and said: "Where's the point of this, I feel cold occasionally, it's a common thing."

Mo Yunxiao glanced sideways at Shan Shan, and said, "My illness is self-inflicted, and has nothing to do with Shan Shan and the others. I hope Your Majesty will not blame them."

Both Zhao Si and Shan Shan were a little surprised, they couldn't help but glanced at each other, Shan Shan was photographed by Zhao Si's majesty, and hurriedly lowered his head.

"Okay, I won't punish them." Zhao Si agreed with a smile.

At this moment, a maid's voice came from outside the house: "Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Liu from the palace has arrived."

Zhao Shi hurriedly stood up, and while walking out, he ordered Shan Shan: "Put down the gauze curtain."

"Yes." Coral responded, and put down the gauze curtain hanging in front of Mo Yunxiao's bed, which could play a certain role in isolation and maintain the traditional concept of male and female defense.

Although Mo Yunxiao could see some blurred figures through the gauze curtain, but the appearance was not clear, only an old voice said: "I have seen Your Highness before."

"You don't need to be too polite. It's frightening to invite you from a long distance." Zhao Si led him around behind the screen while greeting him.

Coral had already prepared two stools and a rolled up towel.Naturally, the stool was for the imperial physician and Zhao Si to sit on, and the towel was for Mo Yunxiao's arm. "Shu Shan, go prepare tea for your husband." Zhao Si ordered, and then sent Shan Shan out.
Imperial Physician Liu sat down slowly, and said slowly, "Miss, please put your right arm on this towel."

Mo Yunxiao put her arm up as she said.Seeing that her cuffs were the clothes she wore yesterday, Zhao Si couldn't help wondering: "She doesn't take off her clothes when she sleeps?" But after thinking about it, she felt lost again: "Is she afraid that I will do something wrong while she is asleep? Sigh, She is so afraid of me?"

The old doctor gently rubbed his hands to make his palms slightly warm, and then carefully landed on Mo Yunxiao's pulse gate.

The old doctor's cloudy eyes rolled, and then he nodded slightly.Seeing him nodding his head, Zhao Shi asked, "Old man, what's the matter?"

"Go back to the lord, the girl's illness is not serious." The old doctor replied: "Perhaps it is due to the recent fatigue and the great stimulation that caused the wind evil to invade."

"Oh, as long as there is no serious problem." Zhao Xi didn't pay special attention to the old doctor's words.

But Mo Yunxiao panicked for a while, thinking: "This old doctor really has two brushes, can he feel the pulse and tell me that I have been stimulated recently?"

The old doctor stood up slowly again, and said while tidying up his coat and hat, "I left a prescription, which focuses on consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan. Three doses a day, and you will be cured in four days."

"Then there will be Mr. Lao." Zhao Si bowed deeply to the old doctor.Mo Yunxiao could also see clearly behind the curtain, and felt a burst of warmth.Somehow, as soon as her nerves relaxed, she fell into a deep sleep again.

But this time, she fell into a very deep cave.The cave was bottomless, and she just kept falling.

"He Lu! He Lu!" She heard Song Mingxuan's voice again.She looked around in a panic, but couldn't find him.

It wasn't until she looked down that she realized that the bottom of the cave was a lake, and Song Mingxuan's face was reflected on the lake. "No! No!" She shook her head vigorously, trying to grab something, but there was nothingness around her, and she had nothing to rely on, only falling helplessly.

With a "plop", she fell into the dark lake, and Song Mingxuan's shadow was also shattered.At this almost weightless moment, she suddenly opened her eyes.

She was panting heavily, the sound of chirping insects could be heard in her ears, and the lights in the room were flickering.It turned out to be already night.She reached out to touch her forehead, her fingers were all wet, and she was sweating all over again.

"Linglong?" It was Zhao Si who spoke.Mo Yunxiao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly agreed: "Your Majesty? I'm here."

Zhao Si came over with a bowl of steaming medicine.He still sat by the bed and said with a smile: "It's a good thing you're awake, I really can't bear to wake you up."

Mo Yunxiao was a little flustered and embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "My family is just a little singer, how can the king take care of it himself?"

"Huanhu and the others, I don't worry about it." Zhao Si urged with a smile, "Get up and drink the medicine, it will be cold later."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." Mo Yunxiao struggled to sit up and took the medicine bowl.Zhao Shi was afraid that she would be cold, so he took off his fox fur cloak and put it on Mo Yunxiao.

No one has ever been so gentle and affectionate to herself, she couldn't help but look at Zhao Si more, and then took a sip of the medicine with a shy look.

But it was this bite that made her head go numb.This medicine is not bitter, but it has an extremely strange taste, accompanied by a very choking smell.She coughed repeatedly and almost spilled the whole bowl of medicine.

Zhao Si quickly took the medicine bowl in her hand, and asked while stroking her back, "What's wrong? Is it very bitter?"

Mo Yunxiao wiped the corner of her mouth with her hands, forced a smile, and said, "It's okay, I can drink it."

So she picked up the medicine bowl with one hand, pinched her nose with the other, tilted her neck, frowned, and gulped down all the medicine.

"How is it? Are you feeling better?" Zhao asked with concern.

Looking into his deep and gentle eyes, Mo Yunxiao suddenly felt a little shy.She nodded with a smile, and said, "I just slept, and it's much better."

Zhao Shi also nodded, and after a long silence, he said again: "Physician Liu said that your illness is a sudden attack, and you let the wind and evil take advantage of it under great stimulation. What is it that happens? What excites you?"

"Ah?" Mo Yunxiao was taken aback. She thought Zhao didn't seem to care much about what Imperial Physician Liu said, but now it seems that she was wrong, and he listened carefully to every word of Imperial Physician Liu.

That's right, what kind of stimulation did she receive to let Feng Xie take advantage of it?The answer is obvious, the source of all this points to Song Mingxuan.

She originally thought that her rival in love would be some beautiful lady from a great family, but she didn't expect that the result would be so dumbfounding. This story is too absurd.She would rather be kept in the dark forever, and never know the truth of the matter.

Thinking of this, she shed tears again, and couldn't help but buried her head in the quilt and began to cry quietly.Zhao Si sat next to her, staring at her intently.

"Miss Linglong, what kind of story does you have? It must be a sad story." Zhao Xi couldn't help but sighed, then stood up and said, "I know you don't want to tell me now, but It doesn't matter. The future is long, and one day you are willing to tell me, I will definitely listen."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, "His Royal Highness King Jian." But Mo Yunxiao stopped him.Surprised and delighted, Zhao seemed to turn around and asked urgently, "What do you have to say?"

Mo Yunxiao glanced at the medicine bowl on the table, and said, "Please help me take this medicine bowl out, Your Highness."

Zhao Si raised her eyebrows and was stunned for a while, but then laughed again: "Miss Linglong, you are really a strange woman." After finishing speaking, he picked up the medicine bowl and walked out.

"Your Highness!" He was stopped again.Mo Yunxiao smiled at him and said, "Thank you for taking care of me."

Zhao Si also responded with a smile, said: "Take a break early" and left quickly.

For the next few days, Zhao seemed to decoct and feed Mo Yunxiao the medicine himself, and even tasted the spoon himself, with incomparable care.

During the past few days, Mo Yunxiao always fell asleep and woke up, always seeing Song Mingxuan in his dreams, and sometimes seeing his younger brother Mo Yunze.And all these dreams made her exhausted physically and mentally, and she was sweating all over.

On the fourth day, when she woke up, she felt that the sun was shining outside the window, and her body was much lighter, not as heavy as the previous few days.So she turned over and got out of bed, went to the window and propped it up, a gust of fresh wind with the fragrance of gardenias rushed towards the wind, and patted her face lightly.She took a deep breath and felt refreshed.

"I'm finally fine." She said.
