Chapter 591 - Tsukisho-sama Chitose 16
“Let’s stay for three or four days.”
Now is an eventful time, it is not advisable to stay for a long time, there are still many things to be dealt with in the villa.
What’s more, the spies of the villa had exposed the news of their return to Beijing to foreign forces, and they encountered many assassinations on the way.
At present, he has only cleaned up the internal spies, and he has not yet found out the source of the forces behind him. If it cannot be solved as soon as possible, he will not feel at ease.
Luo Ci backed away, she noticed that the clothes on Fragment’s body were very clean and tidy, not stained with snow, and the style of clothing was not very similar to Fragment.
After a while, he asked, “How did you come here?”
Chu Zhi wrote lightly, “I came here on horseback.”
Not a carriage.
So it was contaminated with the wind and snow all the way and rushed to the capital.
And now the housekeeper should have prepared a change of clothes for the debris.
She tried her best to be a landlord and take good care of the debris, and then asked, “Has that senior brother had dinner? I’ll let the kitchen prepare it.”
Although the girl in front of her has grown a lot taller than three years ago, she is still a little immature. It is naturally impossible for her to have any strange thoughts about her, and she just vaguely wants to be close to her.
The small one, which only reached his chest, was very serious and arranged for him in the attitude of the little master, which made his heart soft.
Chu Zhi put his hand lightly on the top of her hair, and his voice contained a faint smile, “The housekeeper has already arranged it for me.”
The long and narrow black eyes are calm, reflecting the bright white moonlight in the snow and the candlelight in the house, forming the finely broken stars. It should be a pair of cold and sharp eyes, but it softens a little bit.
“It’s cold at night, go back to your room and rest.”
Holding an umbrella with his long, fair hands, he took her to the door of the room with a slight smile on his thin lips, “See you tomorrow.”
Sometimes he felt that she didn’t look like what she should be at her age. Although she looked playful, cunning and childish, her beautiful and clear eyes were extraordinarily transparent and rational, and hidden emotions that others could not intervene.
When he saw her for the first time, he felt a familiar feeling in his eyes. He liked such a pair of eyes, but he didn’t dare to look at them for no reason, as if he was afraid of something.
Fear……
——She looked at herself extremely coldly and calmly with those beautiful and unusual colored glass eyes, no matter what he did, she would never be able to move him, making people feel hopeless.
However, standing in front of the door, he looked at the girl in front of him, her eyes slightly curved, vivid and bright, hiding a lovely smile, and her soft voice beside her ears, “Good night, senior brother, see you tomorrow.”
Chu Zhi silently chewed the word good night in his heart, and said, good night.
The boy was holding an umbrella, and the cold snow was rustling down. The night was white, and it was almost the same as the wind and snow when he was on the road. At that time, he wanted to see her.
Extremely eager, eager, eager.
Now my heart is extraordinarily peaceful and comfortable, and I have the intention to appreciate the snow at night.
When he returned to the courtyard arranged by the housekeeper, a little servant came over with a food box not long after, and the servant respectfully said, “Young master, please take it slow.”
It has been a long time since the dinner time in the palace, and these dishes were still steaming hot at night, and there was no sign of reheating, so they were prepared for him temporarily.
After two days on the road, he just rested at the inn last night, and then rushed to the capital non-stop. In fact, the time was not so urgent, and no one urged him, but he just wanted to arrive quickly for no reason.
Turning off the lights at night, Chu Zhi quietly listened to the sound of the wind and snow outside the window, and gradually fell into sleep.
He had an incredible dream. In the dream, he was afraid that Luo Ci would escape, so he stayed outside her room, hardly leaving her.
But she still left. No matter what he tried, he couldn’t find her trace. It was as if someone had been stabbed with a cold sword in her heart.
When he woke up, his body was icy cold, and the quilt was not warm, as if he had stood outside the house all night.
It was still dark outside the window.
His consciousness was a little chaotic, and the scene in the dream faded little by little, only the panic in his heart and the despair that was almost suffocating.
The good mood of last night was completely destroyed today, and it was like a huge boulder was pressing in my heart, it was heavy, and it was blocked.
He coughed lowly twice, and got out of bed to drink water while feeling unwell, but there is no hot tea at this time, it’s all the cold tea from last night.
After the burning sensation in his throat disappeared, Chu Zhi saw that it was still early, so he lay back on the bed and continued to rest.
Xu is confused, he thought rarely, to sleep again and have a good dream to drive away the depression caused by the previous nightmare.
…
Chu Zhi had a fever.
This is what Luo Ci found when she went to look for him after getting up in the morning. Since he didn’t have a servant arranged by the housekeeper to take care of his daily life, and the people in the palace didn’t dare to disturb him at will, he didn’t find it in time.
She knocked on the door several times in a row, and called several times outside the house, but the room was always silent, so she simply pushed the door open to check inside.
On the bed, his delicate face was flushed with an obvious abnormal color, his eyebrows were furrowed, and there was some pain.
Luo Ci put her hand on his forehead, and the fragments had a high fever. She hurriedly called for a doctor to diagnose and treat the fragments, and then she called Mingcui to bring cold water, and put a wet handkerchief on Chu Zhi’s forehead.
She didn’t understand why the fragments suddenly had a high fever.
Last night, the housekeeper not only prepared hot water, but also specially ordered people to boil **** soup to drive away the cold.
Before Chu Zhi could wake up, the government doctor came panting with his medical box on his back. He took the pulse for a while and then said, “This young master caught a cold last night, and the chills are so cold that this old man can prescribe a dose of medicine. Twice a day, morning and evening, and it takes about two or three days to heal.”
After writing the prescription, the doctor left.
…
When Chu Zhi vaguely heard someone calling him, he felt that someone was putting a cold handkerchief on him, and the other party wiped his face with a very gentle and careful force.
He was quite irritated by the noise around him, but he just thought that if he had an attack, it would inevitably scare the people who took care of him.
He vaguely knew who she was.
Later, his consciousness gradually became awake, but his eyelids were heavy and he couldn’t open his eyes. He felt a pair of hands trying to lift his body up, let him lean on the head of the bed, and cover him with a quilt very carefully to prevent him from getting cold.
The voice was a little clearer, and when he heard the other person speak, it was a gentle voice with concern and worry, “Senior brother, I will feed you medicine.”
He wanted to go back, okay.
But there was no way to make a sound, so I could only find a way not to cause her trouble and try my best to cooperate with her to drink medicine.
Even if he hasn’t fully woken up yet, or even temporarily unable to control his body, he is exceptionally well-behaved and docile.
It’s just that it was spilled a little bit, and Chu Zhi inexplicably felt an eagerness to defend himself.
It’s like trying to admit that you’ve done something wrong.
