Quick Wear: The Cold Beauty's Sickly Husband is Super Clingy

Chapter 510: Cunning Master x Upright County Magistrate 06

noon the next day.

Ning Zishu, who was seriously injured and unconscious, woke up slowly. The white ball of light lying beside the bed was silently shedding tears, almost crying into a cotton ball.

[In this world, Baiyu is called Ningzishu]

System 8023 dropped small pearls while secretly observing its host.

After seeing the other person wake up, he rushed directly to the young man's hand and rubbed his hand hard, and the whole ball of light was almost buried in the young man's body.

[Woo woo woo, you scared me to death! ]

Ning Zishu covered his chest which was in unbearable pain and looked at the system at hand with a pale face.

The snow-white fingertips poked the soft white light ball, and there was a gentle light in the eyes.

"I'm fine, just a few minor injuries."

System 8023, which was gently soothed by the host, held on to the young man's hand tightly and stared closely at Ning Zishu, who still looked sick.

[Host, I have used the strongest version of the healing potion to repair your body. ]

[As long as you take good care of yourself, you will be able to recover and be as lively and energetic as in your last life.]

Compared to seeing Ning Zishu lying on the sickbed, it still prefers Ning Zishu to be as lively and boisterous as Ruan Zhiyu in the previous mission world.

Ning Zishu blinked slightly, "I understand."

Seeing the young man wake up, the maid hurriedly helped the seriously injured Ning Zishu to lean against the bed, with several soft long pillows placed behind him.

"You are finally awake, my Lord. The hot porridge is ready. Would you like to drink some first?"

Ning Zishu said softly: "No need, I'm not hungry, go and bring me a cup of hot tea."

"Yes." The maid quickly poured some warm tea and brought it over to feed the sick Ning Zishu.

"Your Excellency, I have already sent someone to inform the Second Aunt and the Grand Tutor."

Ning Zishu coughed a few times, forced himself to cheer up, and asked in a gentle voice: "What's the situation outside?"

The maid replied, "Fortunately, the lord led the garrison out of the city to stop the rebels of Prince Yudong from attacking the city, and they held out until the lord Taifu came with reinforcements to help."

"Now that the rebels have been eliminated, the new county magistrate will be able to take up his post in Quyang County in ten days. By then, you will be able to be promoted smoothly and return to Gaoling City."

Ning Zishu nodded slightly, "I'm glad you're fine."

Fortunately, the Grand Tutor led reinforcements to rescue him in time, otherwise he would have to fight for another half a day.

The young man was reclining on the bed, his face looking noble.

There are so many beautiful women in the world, but it is rare to find a beauty as handsome and picturesque as Ning Zishu.

Even Xiahou Yi, who held a high position in the court and was favored by the emperor, had to admit that Ning Zishu's beauty was rare in the world.

The nobleman raised in the Earl's Mansion still looks inconspicuous even in a small place like Quyang County, just like an exquisite jade.

Xiahou Yi stared at the sick beauty on the bed, his calm gaze revealing a bit of heat and fiery intensity, as if he wanted to burn the other person to death.

At this time, Ning Zishu did not notice Xiahou Yi and was thinking about his family situation.

His biological mother died young. She was ill from repeated childbirth and died in her twenties, leaving behind only a young son and daughter.

His biological mother was a noble lady from an aristocratic family. She only had one son and treated all her illegitimate children equally.

Dad Cheng Anbo is smart and capable. Although he is lustful, he can distinguish right from wrong in major issues, and he has never neglected the training of his four sons.

As the heir to the Earl's Mansion, the eldest son Ning Zitan has always been highly valued.

The second son, Ning Ziqi, has served in the army for six years and is now serving as a fifth-rank military officer.

The third son, Ning Zishu, passed the imperial examination and was sent to serve as an official. He will be transferred back to Gaoling City when his term of office is over. By then, his future will surely be bright.

The fourth son, Ning Zihua, did not like studying or practicing martial arts, but only loved making money. He gradually began to take over some of the family shops and did what he liked.

In addition, Cheng Anbo has three daughters.

The eldest daughter Gao married the second son of the marquis, the second daughter married the son of the Minister of Works, and the third daughter has not yet married, but she is already looking for a husband.

In addition to the eldest branch, the Ning family also has many side branches, and there is no shortage of promising children. However, the most outstanding one is Cheng Anbo's fourth son.

Among the four sons of Cheng Anbo, only the eldest son and the youngest son stayed in Gaoling City for many years. The second son Ning Ziqi and the third son Ning Zishu both served as officials outside.

The second son was good at martial arts and joined the army, and the third son entered the officialdom as a scholar.

One is a military general and the other is a civil official. Just these two people show that Cheng Anbo is a good parent.

Ning Zishu, who was immersed in his own thoughts, suddenly heard someone calling him.

"Ning County Magistrate, I am the current imperial tutor Xiahou Yi. I heard that you woke up and came to see you."

"Are you feeling better?"

Xiahou Yi hid the burning heat in his eyes and greeted Ning Zishu in a gentle voice.

"...Better now." Ning Zishu frowned slightly, and pressed lightly on her heart with her porcelain-white fingers, as if trying to suppress the pain.

System 8023, which was hiding beside him, quickly opened the system mall to look for painkillers.

After looking around, he finally bought a pain blocker and used it on his own host. Finally, he saw Ning Zishu's frown relax.

[Host, are you still feeling uncomfortable? ]

Ning Zishu: "I'm fine, you can go back to the system space."

System 8023: [Oh, OK~]

It flashed back to the system space, and the invisibility symbols around it quickly disappeared.

[I'm always here, just call me if you need anything. ]

The white ball of light, worried about the safety of its host, stared intently at the young man outside.

Ning Zishu: “…”

I'm just slightly injured, I'm not a disabled person, do I need to be protected so carefully?

Xiahou Yi couldn't hear their mental communication. He could only see Ning Zishu frowning and looking uncomfortable. He immediately stared at him nervously.

"I'll let Zeng Hui come and see you again."

He waved his hand and asked the guards behind him to call Zeng Hui, and he quickly walked forward to the bedside.

"You are seriously injured. Zeng Hui spent half a day to rescue you from the underworld yesterday. You need to rest well, otherwise your body may not be able to hold on. You should at least eat something for lunch."

"!!!" The two guards from the Taifu Mansion who were standing at the door stared at Xiahou Yi with wide eyes. When would their master ever care about others again!

With his father's sharp tongue, it's good enough that he doesn't curse at people.

Ning Zishu's expression was slightly stagnant. "Thank you for your concern, Master. I will take good care of myself."

Xiahou Yi looked at Ning Zishu tenderly.

"You have done a great job in protecting the people this time. I will write a letter to His Majesty to request your commendation."

When he rushed to Quyang County to rescue Ning Zishu, there were many bleeding holes on his body, and the wound on his chest was the most serious.

Such a loyal person who serves the emperor and the people should be rewarded.

Ning Zishu looked at the other person with a pale face. His frail body made it difficult for him to get out of bed.

"Thank you, Master Taifu."

He raised his hand to his lips and coughed softly. The dull cough made his body tremble slightly.

Zeng Hui rushed over at this time.

He hurriedly stepped forward to diagnose Ning Zishu's pulse, raising his hand to pat the young man's back.

"Ning County Magistrate, you are still very weak. You need to rest well so that you can recover as soon as possible."

"Yeah." Ning Zishu nodded slightly.

His face was still as white as paper, and his lips, which should have been bright red, were now pale from excessive blood loss. His whole body had a kind of sad and decadent beauty.

Xiahou Yi stared at Zeng Hui's left hand viciously, wishing he could chop that hand off.

It’s fine if you just take my pulse, but why did you also pat my back?

If he had known Zeng Hui was so dishonest, he should have brought a court physician with him to the battle.

Ning Zishu pinched the quilt, clenching his fingers tightly.

"Cough, cough, cough..." He bit his lips, trying to suppress the cough that was about to burst out of his throat, but he failed to suppress it, and his chest rose and fell sharply with the coughing.

Xiahou Yi immediately put away the angry thoughts in his mind and looked at the young man nervously.

Zeng Hui asked the maid to bring the medicine he prescribed and urged Ning Zishu to drink it.

"Ning County Magistrate, you need to drink the medicine on time every day. Remember to have the maid make it every day, and then have the skillful servant change the medicine for you in time."

Ning Zishu said gently, "I've made a note of it."

Ning Lanyin, who arrived late, said a few words of concern to Ning Zishu, and her eyes couldn't help but start to turn red again.

"Third brother, luckily you woke up."

Ning Zishu raised his hand and patted Ning Lanyin's arm, his voice as gentle as spring water.

"Don't be afraid, Lanyin, brother is fine."

He chatted with his sister for a few more sentences and then leaned tiredly against the soft pillow, breathing lightly.

"I'm tired, can you let me sleep a little longer?"

Xiahou Yi nodded reluctantly and left the room with Zeng Hui and his guards.

Ning Lanyin wiped her tears and followed him out the door, feeling more joyful in her heart.

Great, great, my brother is awake.

The Buddha and Bodhisattva really heard her prayers.
