in the sound of swallows

Chapter 53 I Woke Up From The Heat!

"Yes." The maids all agreed and went down to do things one after another.Gu Chaodong moved a stool, sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the person on the bed affectionately.

"There are some things I wanted to tell you early in the morning, but I never had the chance." Gu Chaodong smiled self-deprecatingly: "If you were awake, you would definitely not want to listen to me, and only now can you be so quietly beside me gone."

"This time, I really knew that I was wrong. Ever since I married Shen Guiya, everything was wrong."

"I shouldn't have greeted Ya'er in order to compete with my second brother. I haven't forgotten a word of my oath with you, but I was temporarily blinded by interests."

"Now I understand that I still only have you in my heart, and I can do anything for you. It's a pity that you are no longer what you used to be. You have already forgotten our previous agreement."

Gu Chaodong read too many poems and got stuck in his head, and he moved himself while he was talking. He lowered his eyes and said sadly: "In the past, the sea was too difficult to be water, except that Wushan is not a cloud. You have not changed in my heart, but I am in your heart?"

Some maidservants came in with a brazier, they were all little maids serving outside rooms, and they didn't even think about whether charcoal fire could be used if they had a high fever, they just moved in as many as they were told, and the room was instantly warm as summer.

Gu Chaodong also accidentally heard that high fever requires sweating, and sweating will heal, so he came up with this method.Although he also felt a little hot, but thinking of Yan'er's recovery, he endured it.

After the servant girl went out, he continued: "I wish I could turn back time and go back to before you and I got married. I would go all out to find you and not marry Ya'er."

Shen Guiyan was in a deep sleep, and in her sleep, because of this person's incessant thoughts, she also had nightmares.She dreamed that there was a big fire between the sky and the earth, and there were flies flying around her ears.No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't wake up, it was really uncomfortable to die.

Gu Chaobei on the other end rushed out to find a medical clinic in a nearby street, kicked open the door without saying a word, grabbed the doctor and left.

The doctor with a gray beard was brought into the carriage without even opening his eyes, and was extremely displeased by Gu Chaobei's rude behavior: "You brat, why are you so rampant?"

Gu Chaobei was so anxious that he didn't want to talk to him, so he nodded indiscriminately and said, "I'm rampant and I have no rules. When you go back to the mansion, help me cure my wife. You can scold me whatever you want."

Bai Xingyi was taken aback for a moment, pulled his clothes and put on his outer robe, looked at Gu Chaobei several times, and fell silent unexpectedly.

All the way hurriedly dragging the old man back to the north courtyard, almost put him on top of his head.Panting, Gu Chaobei walked to the door of the main house, but when he opened the door, there was a wave of heat.

what's the situation?
"I know you're not that unfeeling, I still remember the last piece of poetry you gave me." Gu Chaodong's voice was choked up, and he said it very emotionally: "Your king is a rock, and my concubine is a pampas grass. I have always Keep it, just don't know when you will think of our past bit by bit."

Breathing lightly, Gu Chaobei raised his eyebrows slightly, then raised his hand to signal the doctor not to come in, and then went in by himself to see what was going on inside.

Gu Chaodong turned to Shen Guiyan who was on the bed, and said right away: "You gave me a strange book before, I read it, and there is a little story on it, I don't know if you know it. It is said that the woman is unconscious, and her Xianggong stayed by the bed day and night, and finally woke her up, and the two lived happily together."

"I've said so much to you, if you still have me in your heart, why don't you just wake up and see me?"

It was as if Shen Guiyan was going to die.

Gu Chaobei stood behind him with his arms folded and took a deep breath.

A nerd is a nerd, coming to his place to talk to his woman?Really tired of living.Usually respect him and call him big brother, but now it seems that there is really no need to teach him a lesson.

Walking lightly to the house while taking a piece of black cloth, Gu Chaobei quietly walked behind Gu Chaodong.

The fellow said with a melancholy face: "I hope you will be fine all the time. Seeing you like this now, I would rather be the one who suffers..."

Before he could finish speaking, his eyes suddenly went dark, and then he was pressed on the head and beaten violently.

"Hmm!" Gu Chaodong didn't react, he just felt a dull pain like countless iron balls falling from his head and body.He was suddenly pushed to the ground and was unable to get up for a while.

"Big brother!" Gu Chaobei's worried voice came from outside: "Big brother, what's wrong with you, big brother!"

Lifting the black cloth covering his head, Gu Chaodong saw Gu Chaobei coming in from the outside.After looking in the house for a week, there was no one else.

"Who hit me just now?" Gu Chaodong stood up, rubbing the sore spots on his face, a little dazed.

Gu Chaobei was even more innocent, his eyes were full of clarity: "Is anyone there just now? The fourth brother just invited the doctor back, and the moment I entered the door, I heard my elder brother screaming in pain. There is no one else here."

Gu Chaodong frowned, took a breath and looked at Gu Chaobei suspiciously for a few times, thinking that it would be disgraceful for him to come in by knocking out the treasure fan, so he looked away and said, "Forget it, maybe it's my demon."

"Is that so, why is big brother here?" Gu Chaobei asked.

"Come and see Yan'er." Gu Chaodong's eyes softened again, looking at Shen Guiyan's sleeping face, he whispered: "It would be great if I could see her wake up."

Gu Chaobei sneered, since the fight was fun just now, he didn't intend to continue to argue with him: "Brother, let's go back first."

"En." Gu Chaodong lowered his eyes and was about to leave when Shen Guiyan who was lying on the bed suddenly moved.

Really woke up!
Gu Chaodong's eyes lit up sharply, probably thinking of the story he told, the romantic feelings in his heart gushed out, and he shouted in surprise: "Swallow!"

Shen Guiyan frowned and opened her eyes, the high fever has not subsided, and she is extremely irritable.No one saw it clearly, and only growled: "It's so noisy."

There was a moment of silence in the room, Gu Chaodong opened his mouth and didn't know what to say, the doctor behind had already entered, and once he came in, he said: "Who is responsible for this, the patient has a high fever and burns charcoal fire, isn't it the only way to wake people up?"

The maids all looked at Gu Chaodong, who was a little surprised: "Don't you want to sweat?"

"Don't pretend to understand if you don't understand, it's killing people." The white-bearded old doctor came in, waved someone to open the window to remove the charcoal fire, and then took the pill out to Gu Chaobei: "Give it to your little wife."

It turned out that he was woken up by the heat, Gu Chaobei felt relieved for some reason, took the medicine, a light flashed, and gave Shen Guiyan the medicine while holding the tea.

"Yan'er, look up."

Shen Guiyan was so burnt that she didn't know what she was doing, and when she heard Gu Chaobei's words, she subconsciously followed suit.

The servant girl and Gu Chaodong were both in the room, so they saw that Gu Chaobei was full of water, and gave the pill to Shen Guiyan himself.

Gu Chaodong's face froze, and he froze in place.

After taking the medicine, Shen Guiyan obediently returned to her pillow and continued to sleep soundly. Gu Chaobei stroked her hair with satisfaction, then turned his head and said, "The old man should feel her pulse."

The old man nodded, and took out a silk handkerchief to feel his pulse.Gu Chaodong stood for a while, then turned around and walked out.

Gu Chaobei did it on purpose, he knew it.Maybe Yan'er doesn't like him, and he can guess.But he couldn't stand that scene.

It can't go on like this.

When Baoshan woke up, he was full of anger, and rushed to the main house to find Fengxiao to settle the score, but found that the young master had left at some point.

Only one lamp was lit in the room, the young lady was still resting, and the fourth young master was sitting on the edge of the bed, lying on the young lady's side in a serious manner, as if he had fallen asleep.

Slightly relieved, Baoshan walked over lightly, trying to cover his young lady with a quilt.

Unexpectedly, Gu Chaobei suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were so sharp that Baoshan was so frightened that he almost screamed: "Master."

"It's you." Gu Chaobei softened his eyes and smiled at her: "Yan'er has me here, go down and rest."

"...Okay." With lingering fear in his heart, Baoshan retreated while clutching his heart.

It seems that when the fourth young master is around, she doesn't have to worry about anything at all.

At dawn the next day, when Jiang Shi came over, Shen Guiyan's high fever had subsided.Gu Chaobei was going to the Ministry of Punishment, but this time he kept Zhuiyun behind.

He felt that there was nothing to investigate about the case of the assassin in the palace, but Yan'er said that he should investigate, so... let's just let it go.

Now that the empress and the empress dowager are fighting together, and the emperor is the purest blood of the clan, he should not be easily shaken. How can we give a satisfactory answer to this case?
"Is your wife better?" As soon as he entered the punishment department, he saw Yuwen Changqing again.There are some scratches on his extremely handsome face, it looks like he should have rubbed against a wall somewhere.

Gu Chaobei felt a little guilty when he thought about what happened last night: "It's better, the high fever has subsided."

Yuwen Changqing smiled bluntly: "It is said that the fourth son of the Gu family values ​​female sex the most. I didn't believe it, but it seems that I was wrong. I heard that Mrs. Gu's family suffered a catastrophe yesterday and lost a lot of money." Not to mention the antiques in the house, people are still injured."

Gu Chaobei said with a serious face: "I also feel heartbroken for my mother."

"Oh? Really?" Yuwen Changqing squinted his eyes and looked at him: "Why do I feel that since I came to Beijing, you gradually seldom go to Zuihuayin, and you care about your wife very much, and you are even more arrogant. Are you angry for a beauty?"

"Hey." Gu Chaobei turned his head to look out the window without answering.

Yuwen Changqing snorted: "The master has become the prince, so you can secure the position of servant for him, so as to build up some power for him. I will do all the things you are doing recently."

"I can't ask for it." Gu Chaobei smiled: "Then it's settled like this. I'll investigate the case."

"You think it's that simple." Yuwen Changqing glanced at him: "Be careful yourself these days, this guy needs his life to sit."

Gu Chaobei stopped laughing and began to think about a very serious problem.

Shen Guiya was eating fruit in the house, looked at the old doctor next to him and asked, "How is Madam?"
