Chapter 22 Illness

"Book...book..."

Madam Xue stood in front of Xue Yunshu's bed, wringing a hot handkerchief to wipe off the sweat that kept oozing from his forehead, and whispering his name worriedly.Xue Yunshu, who had never been sick all this time, suddenly fell asleep for some reason this time, and did not get out of bed for two consecutive days.The doctors who made the diagnosis and treatment changed several times, and even the imperial physician from the palace was invited, but they all said that it was only the spring season, and I felt cold occasionally, and I could take a few doses of medicine and recuperate for a few days.After all, as a parent, even if she knew it was not a serious illness, Mrs. Xue was not at ease, and she always had to take care of it herself.

Just now, after feeding Xue Yunshu the medicine and resting for a while, he heard Xue Yunshu whispering something.

Mrs. Xue thought that Xue Yunshu had woken up, so she leaned over to look at it quickly, but after seeing it, she panicked again.Xue Yunshu's eyes were still closed, his face was red, he kept shaking his head, and shouted "Get out, get out!" in a rather fierce tone.

Mrs. Xue thought that he was haunted by nightmares, so she stretched out her hand to push him, but Xue Yunshu grabbed her hand, sat up abruptly, his eyes stood up with a fierce look, Mrs. Xue trembled in fright, and said in a trembling voice: "Shu'er, what's wrong with you?"

Xue Yunshu was taken aback for a moment, then withdrew his hand after a while, and called her madam uncertainly.

Seeing that Xue Yunshu was awake, Mrs. Xue breathed a sigh of relief, and raised her handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Xue Yunshu's forehead, "Shu'er, you really scared me to death! You will be crowned soon, how can you be so careless? I don’t know how to call a doctor when I’m not feeling well. With your illness, the whole family is nervous. Your grandfather has made a big fuss at Xue Cheng for this! You too, it’s so strange to go to Cuiqin Garden alone What are you doing here? We almost searched the mansion before finding you there, and we were almost insane."

"Ma'am, I... I'm just in a bad mood. I wanted to go for a walk alone, but I got there before I knew it. I thought of my little uncle whom I hadn't met before, and felt a little sentimental for a while, so..."

Xue Yunshu patted Mrs. Xue's hand reassuringly, and explained.

"Alas..." Mrs. Xue sighed heavily, "You child, although you have been messing around a bit on weekdays, you are so thoughtful. Mother should not have told you about that."

"Mrs……"

"Okay, don't say anything." Mrs. Xue pressed Xue Yunshu's shoulders, let him lie back, and tucked the quilt tightly for him, and said, "You are just better, don't think about it. I also Don't disturb your rest, I'll see you again after dinner."

Xue Yunshu thanked him tiredly, he just made up a lie according to Madam Xue's words, and only waited for Xue Cheng to come for questioning as soon as Madam Xue left.

Unexpectedly, Madam Xue walked halfway and turned back again, holding a newly embroidered forehead with beads in the middle, but this time it was not emerald, but a bright red coral bead.

"Look at my confusion. I saw that you were sweating all over. It was uncomfortable to wear a forehead wipe, so I took it off for you. Now you are almost sweaty, so it's time to put it on."

Xue Yunshu froze when he heard the words, he hadn't noticed that the forehead mop had been taken off just now!Thinking about it, he hurriedly asked again,

"Ma'am, what do you mean when Xue Cheng found me, I was still wearing a forehead wipe?"

He clearly remembered that the forehead was removed by Mo Hongyu.

Mrs. Xue was putting it on for him lightly. After hearing this, she covered her mouth and smiled, "Don't you worry about this most of the time? I'm afraid that others will see the red mole between your eyebrows. When you came back, you got dirty in a few places, but the forehead was tied tightly. I took it off for you when I took care of you alone in the past two days, so no one will know."

Only then did Xue Yunshu really show a smile, and said softly, "Thank you, madam."

"What's the point of thanking mother and son?" Mrs. Xue smiled, "When you go through the ceremony and get married, you don't have to cover it up so hard. In fact, you don't have to..."

"Madam." Xue Yunshu interrupted her, showing a tired face, "I'm really tired."

Mrs. Xue still wanted to persuade him, but seeing Xue Yunshu's pitiful appearance, her heart immediately softened, and she let him sleep after a few words of persuasion.After walking through the atrium, he called back Xue Cheng, who was guarding the courtyard gate, and ordered him to take care of the young master.

As soon as Xue Cheng heard that Xue Yunshu had woken up, he rushed to see him immediately.As soon as he entered the door, he was hit on the forehead by a colorful glass bowl, and blood came out immediately.

Xue Cheng didn't beg for mercy, and immediately knelt down, slammed his forehead heavily on the ground, and said, "This subordinate deserves to die, but he didn't protect the young master well!"

In fact, Xue Cheng really can't be blamed for this.

After Xue Cheng was sent away by Xue Yunshu that day, he did not go far away, but waited in the small courtyard next to the prison cell for the servants to change their rest.But after waiting for an hour, Xue Yunshu did not come out. Xue Cheng was a little uneasy, so he took his men back to look.Unexpectedly, the cell was empty, Xue Yunshu and Yun Kuan were gone, only some blood was dripping sparsely on the ground.Xue Cheng didn't dare to delay, and led his subordinates to almost turn Xue's mansion upside down, and finally found Xue Yunshu in the most remote Cuiqin Courtyard.

Xue Yunshu also knew that he was being unreasonable, and when he dropped something and vented his anger, he told Xue Cheng to get up.Xue Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Xue Yunshu was still ill, so he boldly poured out the warm health-preserving decoction on the table and gave it to Xue Yunshu in a bowl.

Xue Yunshu raised his hand impatiently to block it, "You're a rough man and you've learned how to serve people like a maid, I'm tired of drinking these soups and waters. Go back after you answer my question, I want to be alone. "

Xue Cheng repeatedly agreed, so he had to put the bowl back.

Xue Yunshu motioned for him to help him up, found a comfortable position to sit on, and then said slowly, "Where did you find me in Cuiqin Garden that day?"

"Master, it's in the bamboo forest in Cuiqin Garden."

"What was my condition?"

"The young master was lying on the ground, but there was a thick layer of bamboo leaves on the ground, the young master didn't get any dirt on his body, and he wasn't injured."

"When did you find me?"

"Haishi."

At Haishi, Xue Yun kept his face on paper, his hands under the quilt had been tampered with, and Mo Hongyu had imprisoned him for three full hours!

During those three hours, he treated himself...

Xue Yunshu hated it in his heart.As soon as he woke up, he felt that the unspeakable pain was severe, and his body was limp and weak. He had been in romantic places all year round, so how could he not know what happened.Fortunately, Mo Hongyu didn't know what kind of ointment he had applied on him, but there was no injury at all. He touched it with his hand in shame, but he didn't feel anything except that it still hurt.No wonder those doctors only diagnosed him with a cold.

Mo Hongyu, you better not let me find it, otherwise...

"Has anyone sent someone to search for Mo... Yun Kuan's whereabouts?" Xue Yunshu asked again, gathering his composure.

Xue Cheng nodded and said, "I sent people to search it long ago. The Xue residence has always been heavily guarded. It stands to reason that a powerless person like Yun Kuan has no possibility of escape, but..."

Xue Yunshu couldn't help sneering, "What a fool! You are still being deceived by him! He has no power to restrain a chicken? He can even block my silver needle! He still..."

Halfway through Xue Yunshu's speech, the anger that had been suppressed with great difficulty flared up again. He simply swept all the medicine bowls and soup bowls in front of him to the ground, and shouted for Xue Cheng to get out.

Xue Cheng had been by Xue Yunshu's side for more than ten years, and he had never seen him get angry so disregarding his manners. He didn't even dare to persuade him, so he left with suspicion.

Xue Yunshu was lying on the bed alone, with annoying pain all over his body, he stared at the top of the bed, and couldn't help but think of Mo Hongyu's words.

"One month, after one month, the Mother and Child Gu in your body will react."

"A month, ha ha ha ha... a month?"

Xue Yunshu suddenly laughed out loud, laughing and laughing, the voice gradually turned into a sob, and finally it was no longer audible.
