After those words were spoken, Pei Yanzhou remained silent for a long time.
Song Jinyin thought she was hearing hallucinations, so she waved her hand in front of Pei Yanzhou.
The person on the bed still didn't open her eyes. Song Jinyin's hand dropped to the mattress, and the light in her eyes instantly went out, until Pei Yanzhou's outstretched hand lifted up again and found her hanging wrist.
As if he deliberately avoided her palm, his big hand fell down and directly wrapped her entire palm.
"Just drink and wait."
"Shi, Shizi?"
"Um."
It was a bit difficult to respond. If it weren't for the warmth of the hand covering her, Song Jinyin would have thought that the scene just now was just her imagination.
The lights swayed, as if they could reflect the shadows of everything.
Song Jinyin held the bowl in one hand and sat on the edge of the bed due to his initial pull. The other hand was curled up and held in his hand.
What he said just now came to mind again, as if he was sick and confused, but it was enough to make Song Jinyin surprised and confused.
After a long time, the medicine bowl looked cold.
Song Jinyin stood up, but as soon as she moved, her hand exerted force, and the person on the bed finally opened her eyes again.
"Where to go?"
"Your Majesty's medicine is getting cold. I need to make another batch."
The man looked at her slightly stunned eyes, and then looked at the skirt she was wearing.
It took some effort to sit up, but he never let go of his hand.
"No need to change."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took the medicine bowl, raised his head and drank it in one gulp.
The bitterness made him frown, and Song Jinyin quickly picked up a candy bar from the plate prepared nearby and handed it to his mouth.
Pei Yanzhou didn't like taking medicine. She had seen it when she was a child.
No one knew how many sweets the Duke's wife would stuff into the hands of the prince's wife after drinking a bowl of medicine.
But now he rarely drinks medicine, and those little things have never been seen in the house again.
On the contrary, the last time she drank Bizi Soup, she asked Butler Wang. Butler Wang was kind and always prepared several dishes for her.
Just now, when Butler Wang ordered someone to re-decoct the medicine, she asked for some for some unknown reason.
Pei Yanzhou, who was still awake, opened his mouth and allowed Song Jinyin to put the sweet little thing into his mouth.
The fingertips traced across the thin lips, avoiding the split on his lips, bringing a burst of coldness.
"Why is this thing in my house?"
Putting the medicine bowl on the small table next to him, Pei Yanzhou found a soup woman next to the pillow and stuffed it into Song Jinyin's hand.
"My slave asked Butler Wang to send it to me. This slave also took these when taking medicine before. Butler Wang is kind-hearted and has never cut off the medicine for me since then. It can resist the smell of the medicine."
Song Jinyin didn't know what he meant, so she took the still warm Tang Pozi and looked at it, then hesitated and said: "I will go and give the prince a new one."
"He has a good heart?"
Pei Yanzhou half-closed his eyes, his head felt a little dizzy, but he still refused to lie down and sleep.
When he heard this, his originally chaotic thoughts were split into a ray of clarity, making him instantly more energetic.
Ignoring Song Jinyin's next words, his eyes were as dark as ink, and when he looked at the girl in front of him, he seemed to be looking into people's hearts.
It was obviously Wang Kangjiu who heard her plea and went to ask her, but this benefit did not go to him at all.
It's just that it's absolutely impossible for him to get those nice things back for him right now.
Pei Yanzhou held her hand and led her to his side.
"How can he be kind-hearted? Half of the life-threatening errands in Zhuyayuan are handled by him. Apart from me, he is the most cruel person in the whole yard."
"..."
Song Jinyin was pulled forward and blinked. For a moment, she didn't know how sick this person was to talk such nonsense.
"Actually, I don't really care about Butler Wang's methods."
The two of them were a little close due to the pull just now.
Pei Yanzhou sat up and moved closer to her.
The room was filled with a strong smell of medicine, but he could smell a faint fragrance on the person in front of him.
Calming and addictive.
"Your Majesty, please lie down quickly. You can't bear the cold anymore."
"It doesn't matter, it's not bad if you catch the cold."
The drowsiness persisted, making him lazy and weak, but Pei Yanzhou suddenly felt that being sick was not a bad thing.
Even the biting cold rolling river water was nothing compared to the panicked little girl standing beside him.
Pei Yanzhou saw her trembling long eyelashes, her pink lips that had left tooth marks at some point, and her fleshy face that was stained with crimson due to the heat in the room, like sweet autumn fruits. , people can’t help but want to taste it.
It's just that no matter how close it is, it's gone.
After all, he still remembered that he was suffering from the cold. If he got closer to her, she might be the one who lay down tomorrow.
His heart beat uncontrollably a few times before Pei Yanzhou came to his senses and finally sat back down.
The little girl in front of him frowned slightly when she heard what he said, as if she didn't agree, but she dared not speak out in anger, and she waited for a long time before speaking.
"Your Majesty, it's better to lie down. Your Majesty wakes up now and feels cold. But your Majesty, do you know how dangerous the doctor said when you were unconscious? And the river water now is bitingly cold in winter. Your Majesty's nature is like water, so he is so desperate. Have you ever thought about other things like going into the water to save people? I don’t believe that there are no guards around the prince who can swim. Even if those guards are not good, there are still..."
Before she finished speaking, Song Jinyin suddenly thought of Xuan Yi, who had been secretly guarding her during the day. Although she didn't know if the time was right, if Xuan Yi had been following Pei Yanzhou, maybe he wouldn't be in the current situation.
"Why are not you talking?"
"My slave... I have overstepped my bounds. I should not question the prince."
"You didn't go beyond the limit. That's all I won't say. Lin Jingxiu fell into the water. If he didn't go down to save people in person, His Majesty and Princess Hui'an would always be dissatisfied. What's more, my water quality is just average?"
Pei Yanzhou only found it interesting, but he still followed her words and lay back down.
The hand was finally freed by Song Jinyin.
It was only when he saw that she had no intention of leaving that Pei Yanzhou stopped thinking about holding her back like that.
It's like when you are sick, all the thoughts that weigh on your heart no longer exist. At this moment, Pei Yanzhou just wants to look at her, even if he doesn't say or do anything.
Song Jinyin deliberately ignored his different gaze, pursed her lips tightly, occasionally probed his forehead, sometimes applied a handkerchief, and sometimes wiped his sweat.
"Why are you crying? I just close my eyes and rest."
Seeing the eyes of the busy person in front of him gradually turning red, Pei Yanzhou couldn't figure it out for a moment, so he had to hold the person back again.
But he couldn't hear any reason from her mouth, so he stopped busy and sat back on the bed, with his eyebrows lowered, and carefully tightened the mattress for him.
"Your Majesty, please rest early. I will keep you here tonight. I will go back after Your Majesty's fever subsides."
Song Jinyin sniffed and didn't look at him, nor did she intend to look at him.
Pei Yanzhou's water quality is not that good.
When he went into the water to save her that year, he almost tripped over something on the bottom of the lake. Pei Yanzhou never mentioned this after landing, but she cried even during the fever nightmare, for fear that the brother who saved her life would be She lost her life.
Now the person he rescued has become an adult man, and he is in a place with fast currents. If he is not lucky, there is no chance of coming back.
The room suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
Pei Yanzhou glanced at her again, then pulled the rope at the head of the bed and called Wang Kangjiu.
There was a figure moving outside the house. Hearing the movement inside, he hurriedly entered the house.
"Your Majesty is finally awake! I will call the doctor right now!"
"No, let someone make a bowl of ginger soup and bring it over, add some sugar."
Butler Wang's eyes stopped on Song Jinyin for a moment, and he suddenly realized, "My servant was negligent. I'm going to prepare ginger soup for Miss Jinyin. But since the prince is awake, it's better to eat something or drink some porridge."
Pei Yanzhou lost his sharpness due to drowsiness. Juan Xiu's eyebrows wrinkled subconsciously after hearing about eating, but then he looked at Song Jinyin with deep eyes, "Can you have dinner?"
I wanted to nod, but out of the corner of my eye I could feel Butler Wang's anxiety.
The person in front of him seemed indeed very ill, even more unconscious than when he was injured last time.
But she was also injured last time and couldn't take care of him carefully, so in her mind, apart from Pei Yanzhou's pale face, she could only remember his domineering appearance of having people deliver clothes to her room.
Seeing the man with a soft look on his face, Song Jinyin didn't know why, but her hard heart softened a little.
Seeing her shaking her head, Pei Yanzhou ordered people to prepare food.
Although Lin Jingxiu caused him to fall into the water, he was right when he told nonsense.
There are only a few ways to attract the girl's attention, one is gold and silver, the other is coaxing, and the third is cruelty.
Although he didn't end up in this situation intentionally, he got this person's attention after all.
The stagnation of his thoughts made him ignore the confusion in his heart, let alone the obstacles between the two. At this moment, he only remembered that he had not seen Song Jinyin for many days.
At this time, the eldest princess's mansion.
Lin Jingxiu, who also fell into the water, was not so lucky.
One is being carefully taken care of, while the other has a baguette waiting to be served.
