Chapter 73 Princess: Is Ben Gong going to die?
Concubine Luo floated up and down, feeling like she was in a furnace for a while, her whole body was burned badly, and for a while it was like falling into a glacier, with cold air oozing from the cracks in her bones.

She was unconscious, but felt pain all over her body, as if there were thin and dense spider threads, which made her breathless.

In a trance, she could occasionally hear the voices of Ming Qu and Ji Xia, and occasionally Qin Shou.

When she thought of Qin Shou, countless miscellaneous memories flooded up, love or hate, eventually faded into ink, she could no longer tell the difference between past and present lives or just a dream.

In the haze, she took a long breath and slowly opened her eyes——

"Princess," a pleasantly surprised voice sounded, Ji Xia rushed in front of her, choked up and said, "You've woken up."

Concubine Luo regained her composure, her mind turned like a paste, and then she remembered that she was robbed by Poshi Luo to go to the Frostwolf Clan.

"Bengong, what's the matter?" She thought about it, but her whole body was sore and weak, her eyelids were heavy, and her speech was weak.

Ji Xia hesitated to speak, but before she could say anything, a bag of tears fell down, she mourned, "Princess..."

Concubine Luo got a headache from the noise, she tilted her head slightly, and softly scolded, "Quiet!"

After saying that, Ji Xia stopped crying, and looked at Concubine Luo with watery eyes, seeing that she was pale, delicate and weak and not angry at all, she almost couldn't help crying again.

Ming Qu came in with warm water, pushed Ji Xia out, squatted on the side of the bed, and straightened Concubine Luo's loose hair before saying, "Princess has been ill for a few days, she looks much better today."

Concubine Luo raised her eyelids to look at her, and saw that although she had a smile on her face, she couldn't hide the sadness in her eyes.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she asked again, "What's wrong with this palace?"

These words made the sadness in Mingxi's eyes a little bit stronger, and the smile on the corner of her mouth stiffened, "It's not a serious illness, the princess suffered in Xitu, her body was weak, the evil cold entered her body, she just got cold, she just lay down for a few days never mind."

The more Ming Xiao said this, the more Concubine Luo didn't believe it. She stared blankly at the light blue cherry-patterned mosquito net above her head, and said after a long while, "What happened to the epidemic? Did Poshi Luo catch it?"

Ming Xi stuffed a soft pillow behind Concubine Luo's neck, twisted a warm handkerchief and wiped her palms, "The cavalry of the son-in-law traveled thousands of miles every day, and stopped the group of people suffering from the epidemic on the way. This matter did not endanger Langcheng, the son-in-law ordered that everything related to the epidemic should be burned."

After wiping the palms of his hands, Ming Yu brought warm water to Concubine Luo's lips. Concubine Luo glanced at her head and didn't want to drink it, so Ming Yu could only continue, "Poshi Luo ran away, and the son-in-law let him go on purpose, as if It will be useful in the future."

Concubine Luo understood that after just a few words, she was sleepy again, but she still remembered what happened after that, and asked mutteringly, "Where is Suodu? Is he alright?"

Ming Xi gently tucked Concubine Luo's quilt, and said in a low voice, "He's fine..."

Concubine Luo only heard these three words clearly, and fell asleep again in a daze.

Ming Xi blinked, and couldn't help it any longer, hot tears flowed down her face, she bit her lip, let out a subdued whimper, and held Luo Fei's hand tightly, unable to control her grief.

Ji Xia was outside the door. She listened to the movement inside and squatted down against the wall.

After a long time, Ming Xi came out with red eyes, she wiped the corners of her eyes, and said seriously to Ji Xia, "For the sake of the princess, you should act as if nothing happened, and don't arouse the princess' suspicion."

Ji Xia couldn't help crying, she said expectantly, "Sister, you said that our princess has never had a good day when she arrived in Rongzhou, it's not as good as when she was in the capital."

Ming Qi held the brass basin, frowned and said, "The princess has princess thoughts..."

"What else can I think, the princess is just..." Ji Xia sniffled, feeling very annoyed for the princess.

"Shut up!" Ming Qi shouted to stop her.

While the two were talking, Qin Shou, the son-in-law who was far away, was approaching from far away. He was wearing a black orchid robe, a white jade crown on his head, and his indifferent face showed no expression.

Ming Qu and Ji Xia saluted without any sincerity.

Qin Shou stood at the door, looked inside and asked, "How is the princess?"

Ming Qi replied, "I woke up for a while at first, but I still couldn't get rid of the fever all over my body, and I was not very sober."

Qin Shou nodded, his thin lips were drawn into a straight line, he lifted his foot and walked in, walked around the landscape screen, and stood still in front of Concubine Luo's bed.

The delicate little person is huddled in the thin brocade quilt, with a pale face, shadows floating under the eyelashes, the pink lips that used to speak viciously are now dull, and even the corners of the mouth have dry old skin.

He had never seen Concubine Luo with such a disheveled and powerless appearance. She had always been arrogant in front of him, carrying the preciousness that she had since she was a child, arrogant and willful, except for that face, there was nothing A girl should be gentle and gentle.

But when she was lying on the bed without knowing life or death like now, he felt that Concubine Luo was more lively in the past.

A quarter of an hour later, Ming Yu and Ji Xia came in, and Ming Yu said coldly, "Princess is not awake, I'm afraid the son-in-law will get sick, please stay away."

Qin Shou looked at Concubine Luo without blinking, without raising his head, "Why aren't you afraid? After all, there is an epidemic, ten deaths and no life."

Ming Xi's eyes sharpened instantly, "I also ask the son-in-law to be careful, the maidservant and the princess will live and die together, if the princess can't live, the maidservant will go underground to serve her together."

Although Ji Xia didn't express her opinion, her firm eyes were like a cry.

Hearing this, Qin Shou suddenly raised the corners of his mouth. He bent down and stretched out his hand, and gently brushed the hair on the corner of Luo Concubine Luo's mouth with his fingertips, "No..."

She hasn't killed him yet, so how can she be willing to die?
Ming Yu and Ji Xia didn't understand Qin Shou's words, Qin Shou didn't want to explain much, he got up and left after a while.

Ji Xia watched his leaving back, and asked Chi Chi, "Sister, can the son-in-law save the princess?"

Ming Yu was more assertive than Ji Xia, "Don't mention this in front of the princess, I have already sent letters back to Rongzhou and the capital, and I should wait until Aunt Shouyang and the others arrive in Langcheng to discuss it."

Concubine Luo was completely unaware of what Ming Qu and Ji Xia were thinking. When she woke up again, two days had passed. This time, the first person she saw was Qin Shou, the son-in-law.

Her throat was very dry, her mouth was bitter, and she couldn't bear it.

Qin Shou reached out to fetch warm water, carefully fed her a little, and then sat down on the edge of the bed.

Concubine Luo slowed down, staring at him with wet peach eyes, "Is this Gong not going to live long?"

Qin Shou was silent, he just looked at her without expression.

Concubine Luo sneered softly, "I know in my heart that Mingyu and Ji Xia are still hiding this from me..."

Before she finished speaking, she coughed suddenly, out of breath, coughing so badly, her throat became sweet, and she coughed up blood.

Qin Shou acted swiftly, he wiped the blood from the corner of Concubine Luo's mouth, and gave her comfort. When Concubine Luo felt better, he said, "This king will catch Po Shiluo and bring you back. You... will be fine."

Concubine Luo glanced at him, she knew that he was the one who let him go before, and now he told her that he would be arrested, so she was not sincere.

Understanding Concubine Luo's thoughts, Qin Shou said again, "Princess's sudden illness, this king never expected."

Concubine Luo didn't want to say these things, she turned her head and said, "Get out of here, don't crowd me."

At the end, he asked uncertainly, "Is this palace really infected with...the epidemic?"

Qin Shou didn't want to lie to her, and he couldn't hide it like Ming Xun did, so he answered after a long time, "Yes."

"That's it..." Concubine Luo sighed softly, she was really sure, but she felt relieved, as if she was not afraid of anything and could let go of everything when it was at a critical moment of life and death.
