——The breathing is heavy, short and slow, and the breath in the throat is hot...
Zhou Jinyan quickly took out the fire stick and lit the oil lamp on the table. As expected, he saw Jian Yu's flushed face. Her forehead was covered with sweat, her brows were knitted together, and she was sleeping extremely uneasily.
He stepped forward and put his hand on Jian Yu's forehead. The scalding heat made Zhou Jinyan's eyes darken, and he immediately called Hongmei and asked if he had prepared any medicine.
He knew that Jian Yu was not in good health, and many medicines were brought from the south of the Yangtze River. Various medicinal materials were often dried on a stone table in the courtyard of Prince Jing's Mansion to prevent them from getting damp.
Hongmei saw the symptoms of her young lady's illness and knew that there was medicine. Seeing Hongmei taking out the medicine and preparing to fry it with ease, Zhou Jinyan was slightly relieved and then took care of Jian Yu.
First, he covered her with a quilt, then wiped the sweat from her forehead, wrung out the handkerchief and replaced it over and over again to cover her forehead.
"Cold~"
Jian Yu noticed that someone was taking care of her. She thought it was Hongmei. Feeling cold, she grabbed the hand of the person in front of her and wanted to add another quilt, but her throat was dry and it hurt to breathe. In the end, she could only say the word "cold".
Then he said: "Thirsty~"
Jian Yu felt that her throat was on fire.
Soon, a stream of water flowed down her mouth and into her throat. Touching the cup in front of her mouth, Jian Yu took a big gulp.
Then she fell into a warm embrace, the heat was like a furnace, dispelling a lot of the coldness on her body.
"
Jian Yu let out a sigh of relief, subconsciously rubbed her head and pressed herself closer.
Zhou Jinyan on the side was almost melted by this coquettish behavior. He had always felt that Jian Yu looked like the Mohu he had raised before, but now he felt that she didn't look the same anymore.
Mohu is not so delicate!
At this moment, Jian Yu was like an arrogant cat with its sharp claws closed. She pressed her soft flesh pads on Zhou Jinyan's palm and meowed softly, asking him to pet her head.
Zhou Jinyan also did the same. He subconsciously put his hand on the back of Jian Yu's neck and massaged her gently.
Jian Yu, who had a fever, felt uncomfortable all over, especially the back of her head, which was sore and dull. This was also the main reason for her dizziness.
After feeling the force on the back of her neck, Jian Yu's eyebrows slowly opened, and her uncomfortable expression slowly turned into a peaceful sleeping look. In Zhou Jinyan's eyes, it was like a kitten purring comfortably.
Prince Jing had never taken such good care of anyone before, and Jian Yu was the first one.
He held Jian Yu in his arms like a princess, and made her whole body lean toward him. This extremely close posture was something that even his father had never hugged the little prince like when he was a child.
"Your Majesty, the medicine is ready."
At this time, the sound of Hongmei came from outside the tent.
Jian Yu opened her eyes in a daze. Hongmei was outside, so who was she relying on? Only then did Jian Yu realize that this was unreasonable. Hongmei didn't have such broad shoulders at all!
"Bring it in."
Jian Yu's eyelashes trembled when she heard a deep voice coming from her ears, "Zhou Jinyan!" She was actually held in his arms? !
Jian Yu's mind began to regain consciousness, but from the outside, she was still in a daze. Jian Yu's body became hot, and her forehead, cheeks, and even the ends of her eyes were red.
Her skin is extremely white, and it looks like she is not sick, but drunk and naive.
Often at this time, Mrs. Jian would not allow her daughter to see outsiders. Until she was in good health, Mrs. Jian would not allow her to show her face even if the noble girls from the south of the Yangtze River came to visit with their young masters.
The woman was fine. As someone who had experienced this, Mother Jian knew very well what those young men were worried about.
Furthermore, the appearance of her daughter's illness was really too confusing. If her husband saw it, he might have some thoughts. Mrs. Jian should prevent this situation from happening.
She never thought that despite all the precautions she took in Jiangnan, she failed to guard against Prince Jing of Shengjing.
The sick Jian Yu was unable to open her eyes, her wet eyes were half-closed, and her confused expression was particularly childish and innocent. If Tang Fu saw Jian Yu's expression at this moment, she would definitely stop worrying about letting her fifth sister compete for favor.
In terms of being as innocent and innocent as a girl, no matter how her fifth sister behaves, they can't compare to the expression on Princess Jing's face right now.
"The medicine is here, drink it and you'll be fine, come on~"
Zhou Jinyan used a soft voice that he didn't pay attention to. If General Bianbei was here, he would definitely be stunned and ask: "Master, why are you talking with a high voice?"
Military generals don't understand gentleness, and Prince Jing didn't understand it before either. Now, he's self-taught without a teacher.
In the final analysis, regardless of whether you are a military general or a civil servant, gentleness mainly depends on whether you have met the right person.
Hearing Prince Jing's soft tone, Jian Yu's heart trembled. She wanted to get up by herself, but Zhou Jinyan picked her up and put her back on the bed. He even stuffed quilts behind her for her to lean on.
Only then did Jian Yu realize what position she and Zhou Jinyan were in just now! Much closer than she thought!
Fortunately, she was in a feverish state, otherwise the other party would have seen through her blushing look.
Jian Yu choked after taking the first sip of the medicine. It wasn't that Zhou Jinyan had not fed her well, but that it was too bitter. Jian Yu tried her best to avoid getting a fever. Taking care of her body was one thing. Another major factor was that the medicine to treat fever was too bitter. !
Dr. Luo Shen said that most of her fevers were due to colds, which caused her body to become weak and exuberant. She needed to use heat-clearing medicines to relieve the fire. However, most of the heat-clearing medicines were bitter, and the accumulation of multiple medicines made the pain even worse.
Jian Yu, who was choking on tears, had just subsided from her cough when a sugar pill was stuffed into her mouth.
The sweetness of the sugar pills that melts in your mouth instantly covers the bitter taste in your mouth. It flows down your throat with saliva and is no longer bitter.
What good stuff! ? Jian Yu, who had been using candied fruit for many years but the effect was mediocre, looked at Zhou Jinyan with bright eyes.
"Drink the medicine and then give you another one, okay?"
Jian Yu was a little embarrassed. Zhou Jinyan's tone made her look like a child begging for candy.
In order to prove that she was not, Jian Yu endured the pain and drank the medicine in large gulps. After taking the last sip, Jian Yu was already suffering so much that there were tears in her eyes.
"So good."
Jian Yu was patted on the top of her head.
...On the contrary, are you actually acting for the sake of a kid eating candy? !
I was thinking about whether to explain myself, but just when I opened my mouth, I was stuffed with a sugar pill before I could speak. This time it was more delicious than the one before, with a floral sweetness.
Jian Yu squinted her eyes and tasted it slowly. She was already sick and her brain was spinning very slowly. She forgot what she wanted to explain. She was immersed in the sweet, fragrant and delicious atmosphere.
Seeing Jian Yu's satisfied look, Zhou Jinyan's eyebrows curved and his eyes were full of doting.
Hongmei on the side quietly took the bowl away and exited the tent. The prince took good care of his master! There is no need for myself at all.
Tomorrow, I went to ask Wei Bai where the prince bought the sugar pills. She also had some prepared. The master liked them very much!
