Chapter 166

"Are you okay? Is there something wrong?" Jin Xi's face was flushed, which startled Qin Xiao, and he reached out to touch her forehead without even thinking about it.

"Master, our girl is fine, but I'm going to sweat after drinking too much ginger soup." Qing Xing hurriedly stood up and lay between the two of them, and Qin Xiao really touched the girl's face, and Mama Ai must beat her to death.

"Then sweat it out, I... I'm going out!" I wonder if the charcoal basin in the cabin is burning too hot, Qin Xiao feels hot for no reason, his gaze falls from Jin Xi's drooping neck inadvertently, and he sees the fair skin The fine fluff on the head is exposed by the morning light, and I am so nervous that I can't even speak clearly.

He escaped out of the cabin door, and heard Jin Xi and Qing Xing's muffled laughter inside, Qin Xiao punched the railing of the boat angrily.He didn't do anything wrong, so why did he run away?
Qing Xing wiped the blood off Jin Xi's hand with a wet handkerchief, and whispered in her ear, "Elder Qin also likes girls!"

"You are amazing, you know everything! I'll tell Mama Ai to go and see how you end up." Jin Xi gave her a blank look, but there was a sweet feeling in her heart.Qin Xiao likes her too!But thinking of her two hundred and five performances in front of Qin Xiao, Jin Xi's face turned red again.How could she be so stupid before?

Qing Xing stuck out her tongue in fright, pointed at the repaired cloak and asked, "Do you need to return this, slave?"

"It's finished, why don't you go back and ask him what he's wearing?" Jin Xi wanted to frighten Qing Xing with a straight face, telling her not to talk nonsense.As soon as she said it, her tone turned out to be soft and sweet, even she felt it was strange.

"Yes!" Qing Xing exaggeratedly agreed, took out a piece of pink furoshiki with colorful flower patterns, wrapped the cloak carefully, and carried it out of the hatch.After a short time, he came back with his pack in his arms, "Shizi Qin took Zhou Qingniu ashore, the cabin door is locked, and servants cannot get in."

Jin Xi nodded to show that he understood, but he was puzzled in his heart, didn't he mean to sail?What are you doing going ashore now? Is it related to that batch of pig iron ingots?

From here to there, thinking of Qin Xiao's complicated and bumpy life experience, and thinking of the things he did in the open and in the dark, Jin Xi's heart became more and more entangled.

To choose a man is to choose a life. She just wants to live an ordinary life and live quietly.And Qin Xiao is destined to live on the cusp of the storm all his life, unable to avoid intrigues all the time.

There are some things she needs to think about.If you make a mistake once, you can't make a second mistake!
Qin Xiao didn't come back that night, Jin Xi thought she would be relieved that she didn't have to face him right away, but she didn't dare to close her eyes all night.As soon as you close your eyes, you will see Qin Xiao running for his life in the thick fog covered in blood.Behind him is a mist that can't be seen at a glance. The pursuers hide in the mist and can't see anyone, but there are always flashing swords and swords, bowstrings and thunderbolts...

Early the next morning, Qing Xing was startled by her black eyes, "Young lady didn't sleep well last night?"

Ai's mother got the letter and rushed in in a panic, "Did the girl get blown by the wind yesterday?" She said and gave Qing Xing a hard look, "I asked you to take good care of the girl, how did you take care of it? Go out in the morning to blow the wind, If you don’t even wear a cloak, you’re getting more and more lazy!”

Qing Xing shrank her neck and looked at Jin Xi as if asking for help, Jin Xi had no choice but to help her, "I'm fine, but I slept too much during the day yesterday, and I didn't sleep well at night. Just boil two eggs and roll them for me." .”

Ai's mother looked at her suspiciously, "Really? I really don't need to ask the doctor to look at it?" She probed Jinxi's forehead, and then touched her own head. It was true that she didn't have a fever, and Ai's mother was relieved, "The girl is old. If you say something presumptuous, you are just like the old slave's own flesh and blood, if the girl has any concerns, you must tell the old slave, don't be bored in your heart, and you will be suffocated."

Jin Xi's scalp is numb, Ai's mother is not a bullying slave, she said this because she sincerely loves herself.Did she write all her thoughts on her face?Mama Ai, who is slow to react, can see it. Does Qin Xiao know it too?
In the past, she was so stupid that she couldn't see Qin Xiao's affection, so she could do whatever she wanted.Now that I know, how do I go about the remaining half of the journey?
"I'm hungry, and I want to eat the dragon beard noodles you made yourself." Ai Ma stared at Jinxi with piercing eyes, and Jinxi felt guilty when she saw him.Holding Ai's mother's arm and acting like a baby.

"Okay, old slave, let's do it now! Is the girl topping with ingredients or meat? How about making a bowl like my mother, and the girl can taste it?" It's a good thing to want to eat, Mama Ai's brows stretched, and Qing Xing also looked at her. It was pleasing to the eye, "Do you want to add a poached egg to your bowl?"

Qing Xing stared at her eyes and nodded her head vigorously.The sky has eyes, since she boarded the boat, her mother said that she didn't serve the girl wholeheartedly, so she didn't talk to her in a friendly way.Now I finally think that I am her own daughter!
After eating noodles, Jin Xi saw Mama Ai coming in with a needle and thread, with an expression on her face that she wanted to watch her personally, she hurriedly took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed, going to sleep for a while.

Ai's mother thought that the noodles were easy to digest, so she didn't stop her from sleeping after eating. She went up to tuck her in the quilt, added a few pieces of charcoal to the brazier, and then went out to close the door.Outside the door, she nagged and asked Qing Xing for a long time to guard the door and not let irrelevant people disturb Jin Xi.

Jin Xi was angry and funny lying on the bed, there were only a few people on board, the answer was self-evident who was the irrelevant person that Mama Ai was talking about.People say that the country is easy to change and the nature is hard to change. I didn't expect that after staying in Anyang for more than half a year, Ai's mother's vision became so high that even Qingyuan Hou Yezi became an irrelevant person.

Jin Xi said that sleeping was just an excuse for not wanting to listen to Mama Ai's nagging, so she lay down for a while.I don't know if it was because I didn't sleep well last night, or because I was really blown by the wind, but I was so lazy that I didn't want to move.His hands and feet also seemed to have no strength to lift, and he screamed lazily even if he wanted to, and fell asleep in a daze.I don't know how long I slept, but finally I woke up hungry.

Opening her eyes, she saw that she was sleeping all day long outside the window.

Jin Xi hurriedly got up to greet Qing Xing.I called twice and no one answered.I had no choice but to put on my own clothes, maybe because I haven't put on my own clothes for a long time, my fingers are not very flexible, and I haven't buttoned the buttons under my waist for a long time, and I'm sweating after finally buttoning them.Wiping off the sweat from her forehead, Jin Xi frowned secretly. She must have been served too much, and her hands and feet began to degenerate.

She was moving her arms and legs when Qing Xing rushed in in a panic, "It's not good, Prince Qin is ill!"

"Ah? What's wrong?" Jin Xi was taken aback. Qin Xiao was fine yesterday, but he got sick after not seeing him for a day?Pain in the brain is not a disease at all for a person like him, could it be...Suddenly recalling the dream last night, Jin Xi's feet went limp and he almost fell to the ground.

Qing Xing hurriedly supported her, cursing herself for being indifferent to what she said, "The doctors who came here said that they were overworked and caught a cold, take a few medicines and see."

"Where did you get a quack doctor? What do you mean by taking a few medicines and seeing them?" Jin Xi pushed Qing Xing away and ran to the next door. A doctor doesn't talk too much, and brags that his medicine has cured his illness. This is humility.But he didn't even have self-confidence, so he took a few medicines and tried to treat Qin Xiao as a guinea pig?
An old doctor with white beard and hair was taking Qin Xiao's pulse. Qin Xiao was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his face was pale and blue, and his lips were black and purple.His face was covered with cold sweat, and Zhou Qingniu kept wiping it for him with a cloth towel.Beads of cold sweat still ooze out layer by layer.There were four charcoal basins in the room, just as Jin Xi opened the door, a gust of hot air rushed towards him.Qin Xiao, who was covered with two layers of quilt, seemed to be immersed in an ice hole, his teeth chattering.The body under the quilt also curled up into a ball.

There were four or five doctors lying side by side on the bed, all of them staring worriedly at the old doctor who was treating Qin Xiao on the bed.Seeing the old doctor examine the right pulse and examine the left pulse, with a puzzled expression on his face, one of the doctors couldn't help asking: "Forgive my ignorance, I have never seen such a severe typhoid fever, what did the old doctor Qi see? Please give me some advice!"

"Let the old man take a look again!" The doctor, who was respectfully called the old doctor Qi, withdrew his hand and rolled Qin Xiao's eyelids. After watching for a long time, he turned his face to look at the people in the cabin, with an uncertain tone. Said: "according to the old man, the imperial envoy's illness..."

The soles of Jin Xi's feet seemed to be stepping on cotton, her heart tightened with the doctor's brows, and seeing the old doctor's helplessness, her legs gave way and almost collapsed to the ground.These days, common typhoid fever can kill people, but if you encounter intractable diseases, you can only wait to die.

Qing Xing, who followed in quickly, supported Jinxi from behind, helped her to sit on a chair, raised her eyebrows and said, "This is Princess Leyi, who will be escorted back to Beijing by Prince Qingyuan to congratulate the Empress Dowager on her birthday. If you have anything to say, just say it!"

Qing Xing has learned to be smart in the past half a year in Anyang, and once she turned the words, she revealed the relationship between Jin Xi and Qin Xiao, and she also described the behavior of the two alone, a man and a widow, in the same boat for thousands of miles, which made it impossible to find fault.

The doubts on the faces of the people eased a little, and they saluted Jin Xi one after another. At this time, Jin Xi's attention was all on Qin Xiao's condition, and he didn't know what Qing Xing said.Seeing everyone saluting, he hurriedly said, 'There is no need to be too polite', before everyone got up, he hurriedly asked: "What's wrong with Prince Qingyuan? Is your life in danger?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and in the end it was the old doctor Qi who spoke, "Don't worry, princess, the old man Qi Guozheng. Although his medical skills are shallow and he can't see what the illness is, it is no problem to protect his life before he arrives in the capital."

This is like telling someone that I don't know the way, but I can definitely take you to your destination.Doesn't do anything except make it more disturbing.

Qi Guozheng seemed to have a lot of weight in his words. When his words fell to the ground, everyone nodded in unison, convinced of his assurance.

Zhou Qingniu also said: "Princess, don't worry, Mr. Qi is the most famous doctor in Danling. He said that the son is fine, so he must be fine."

"Then invite Mr. Qi to come to Beijing with us on the same boat." Jin Xi turned cold, and for the first time used his power to overwhelm others.Even if she traveled day and night to go to Beijing, it would take more than ten days. Right now, she has nothing to do but leave Qi Guozheng on the boat.
