The Aloof Prince Pampers His Wild First Rate Consort-Chapter 96

Mu Yunjin hurried back to her bedroom. When she went out for the Lantern Festival from the Xiangfu, she didn't bring Zi Xiang. At this time, she is alone in her bedroom and was fl.u.s.tered.

As soon as she took off her wet outer coat, there was a knock outside the door. Then came Shen Momo's voice,

"Huangzi fei, the hot water is ready. You should take a bath first."

"En."

Mu Yunjin answered, went to the door and opened it.

Shen Momo came in with a bowl of steaming ginger soup. She looked at the Mu Yunjin covered by water and frowned.

"w.a.n.gzi fei go to bathe first. Then drink this ginger soup and have a good rest."

"Although it's hot in summer, we should be careful about having cold when we get wet all over."

After Shen Momo finished speaking, she put down the ginger soup in her hand and waited for Mu Yunjin to take a bath.

When Mu Yunjin soaked in the bath barrel, she took a little breath. Gradually, warmth entered her body. She leaned against the barrel and relaxed.

Shen Momo stood behind the screen, tidying up the clothes which Mu Yunjin changed from.

"Huangzi fei, what happened to you? Did you fall into the water?"

"En."

Mu Yunjin lightly replied.

"Aiyo, really not careful. Fortunately, nothing happened."

Shen Momo spoke and shook her head helplessly.

Shortly afterwards, Mu Yunjin changed into clean clothes and came out from behind the screen. Shen Momo is still in Mu Yunjin's room. After the bath is finished, she immediately picked up the bowl of ginger soup and handed it to Mu Yunjin.

"It's not so hot. Drink it quickly and have a good rest."

Mu Yunjin took the ginger soup and put it on her lips. The pungent ginger smell made her twist her eyebrows, but she still gritted her teeth and drank it all.

A bowl of ginger soup came down her belly and Mu Yunjin's body was completely warm.

Shen Momo then went out with her empty bowl, Mu Yunjin went back to her soft bed, laid down, covered herself with a quilt and looked at the ceiling with a dull look.

After a while, her head was a little dizzy, and she gradually went to sleep.

……….

The next day, the Front hall of the Liu Huangzi Fu is filled with all kinds of treasures.

Shen Momo sent off Eunuch Lu who had come to announce Imperial decree. She turned around and looked at Chu Li who is sitting on the master's seat and drinking his tea.

"Liu Huangzi fei jumped to the lake to save a person last night. No wonder she was all wet. Even the Emperor rewarded so many things to show his appreciation."

Shen Momo looked at the rewards and became speechless.

Ding Xian stood at the side, saw the scene and smiled.

"Shen Momo, you didn't see how heroic our Huangzi fei last night. I went out to work this morning and the street has spread the story all over. Our Huangzi fei is now a female hero in everyone's eyes."

"En, our Huangzi fei is really amazing. Last night I asked her and she only said that she accidentally fell into the water."

Shen Momo shook her head helplessly.

As she spoke, Chu Li looked up at the time and slowly opened his mouth.

"It's almost noon. Hasn't Mu Yunjin woken up yet?"

"This servant will take a look."

Shen Momo then walked towards the direction of Gla.s.s Spring Pavilion.

After Shen Momo left, Zixiang, who came back from Xiangfu, stepped into the front hall. When she saw Chu Li's figure, she immediately faced Chu Li and made her greeting.

"This servant pays her respect to His Royal Highness Liu Huangzi."

Zixiang bowed her head.

Chu Li gave a faint Hmmm, swept his eyes at Zi Xiang, and after a moment, his thin lips lightly opened.

"When did Mu Yunjin learn to swim?"

"This..."

Zi Xiang was silent for a moment, lowered her head at Chu Li, she did not dare to look at Chu Li at all. This morning, she heard a story about her Miss jumping into the lake to save a person. She felt that she must have heard wrong.

From when she was young, she had followed Mu Yunjin and waited on her side. She never knew that she could swim. When she was forbidden to leave the Adcending Flower pavilion, Wu Xiaojie once naughtily pushed her to the pond and almost drowned. Finally, she was rescued by some family servants.

Zi Xiang is terrified of not knowing how to answer, she remembered all the discrepancies of Mu Yunjin since the incident, so without better option she looked down and said:

"Xiaojie used to have a good relationship with Da Shaoye*. Maybe it was Da Shaoye who taught Xiaojie how to swim."

(Da Shaoye*= Eldest Young Master)

"En."

Chu Li nodded lightly.

"Aiyo, not good, hurry and go get a doctor. "

Shen Momo rushed into the Front Hall and, as soon as she entered the door, she shouted at a little maid.

Chu Li looked at Shen Momo and furrowed his eyebrows slightly.

"What's wrong?"

"Huangzi fei may have caught a cold last night. Just now, when this servant went to call her, this servant found that she was burning hot, she must be having a fever."

Shen Momo replied.

As soon as the words were spoken, Chu Li pursed his lips, got up and walked towards Gla.s.s Spring Pavilion.

Mu Yunjin laid on the soft bed, half-squinting, she several times want to sit up, but feels like her head is spinning so she had to lie on the soft bed powerlessly, and covered her head with a quilt.

The door was pushed open. In the haze, Mu Yunjin felt several footsteps approaching in her direction.

Afterwards, she felt that the quilt was slightly pulled away, and suddenly the light made her frown and she shrank back into the quilt.

Chu Li stood beside Mu Yunjin's bed and watched her whole person bury in the bed. He stretched out his hand and gently put it on her forehead.

It seemed that she felt the sudden cold coming from her forehead and with her feeling burning hot this made Mu Yunjin comfortable. She could not help but reach out and grasp the source of the coldness.

Chu Li was trying to take his hand back, but suddenly he was held tightly by Mu Yunjin, holding his fingers together, and Chu Li's eyes grew dark.

'Creak--'

The door was opened again.

A doctor with a medicine box rushed in, he made salutations to the people after entering the door, then went to the bedside. He looked at Chu Li and Mu Yunjin's clasped hands, and smiled in embarra.s.sment.

"Your Royal Highness Liu Huangzi, please let me check Huangzi fei's pulse first?"

Chu Li nodded and gently let go of Mu Yunjin's hand, Mu Yunjin seemed to be reluctant, and her fingers slightly moved a few times.

The doctor immediately took a step forward, covered Mu Yunjin's wrist with a silk handkerchief, and then reached out to check Mu Yunjin's pulse.

A moment later, the doctor cupped his fist in respect towards Chu Li.

"Huangzi fei seemed to have suffered from a cold last night. Now she has a high fever. I will prescribe a few appropriate medicine. After Huangzi fei takes a few doses of the medicine, she will get better."

"Physician w.a.n.g, come with me and prescribe the medicine first."

Shen Momo faced Physician w.a.n.g.

Physician w.a.n.g nodded and immediately followed Shen Momo out.

After Shen Momo left, Zi Xiang fetched a basin of water, wringed some water and covered Mu Yunjin's forehead. Then she picked up a towel and wiped the sweat around Mu Yunjin's neck.

"Take good care of her properly."

Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin lying on the bed, then looked down at his hand, and then went outside the door.

Zi Xiang looked at Chu Li's back figure, then at Mu Yunjin and sighed slightly.

(TL: Chu Li, with your ice cold hands it is very efficient to just put it in Yunjin's forehead. Conserves water a lot! lolz)

……….

In the evening, Mu Yunjin finally got rid of her fever, her limbs were somewhat weak, and she sat up from the bed and leaned against the headboard.

"Xiaojie, why did you get up?"

Zi Xiang entered the door with a bowl of medicine. She saw Mu Yunjin sit up and opened her mouth in surprise.

Mu Yunjin wrinkled her brows slightly and moved her sore shoulder for a while.

"Only jumping in a lake but it turned me upside down like this. This body is really weak."

"Xiaojie, you're not made of iron. You'll inevitably get sick. Drink this medicine first. You've drank it once during the day. It works very well."

Zi Xiang brought the medicine over, scooped up a spoonful and blew it gently.

Mu Yunjin looked at the bowl of black medicine in disgust and waved her hand.

"Take it away, I won't drink it, I'll just sleep."

"That's no good. The doctor said that you have to drink three times a day for three days, and you only drank once at noon, Xiaojie. How can you do that?"

Zi Xiang said, putting the spoon to Mu Yunjin's lips.

Mu Yunjin sighed slightly, lowered her head and opened her lips to drink the medicine. The bitterness of the Chinese herbal medicine overflowed in her mouth, which made her already wrinkled eyebrows wrinkle tighter.

At this moment, she misses those tablets and capsules of Western medicine.

After barely drinking the bowl of medicine, Mu Yunjin was somewhat overwhelmed. Fortunately, Zi Xiang had already prepared candied fruit. After eating the candied fruit, the sweet and sour feeling came, which made Mu Yunjin feel more comfortable.

After Zi Xiang had cleaned up the medicine bowl, she sat beside the bed and chatted with Mu Yunjin.

"Xiaojie, today the Emperor has rewarded you with many treasures, saying that Xiaojie has acted bravely and especially encouraged the award."

The Emperor knows? "

Mu Yunjin raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, almost all of b.u.t.terfly Flower City are talking about it. There were people who said that Qin Xiaojie was there at that time, but Qin Xiaojie stared blankly at the child struggling in the water! Unexpectedly, Liu Huangzi fei jumped into the lake to save a person."

Zi Xiang laughed proudly.

"I don't know if these rumors are really praising me or harming me."

Mu Yunjin pursed her mouth and took another candied fruit.

Zi Xiang smiled.

"Naturally, it is praising Xiaojie. When this servant heard that Xiaojie jumped to the lake to save a person last night, this servant was really frightened. Xiaojie, when did you learn to swim? How come this servant did not know?"

"I learned from my da ge."

Mu Yunjin randomly thought about a reason.

"It turned out that this is true. When His Royal Highness Liu Huangzi asked this servant today, I couldn't answer for a while. Later, this servant thought about it. And like what Xiaojie said, I said you were also taught by Da Shaoye."

Zi Xiang replied.

Mu Yunjin heard the words and frowned.

"Chu Li asked you about this matter?"

"Yes, just before noon today. When the doctor was examining Xiaojie for your treatment, His Highness Liu Huangzi still stood by to look on, and afterwards I did not know where he went."

Zi Xiang said, recalling for a moment.

Mu Yunjin pursed her lips and did not know what to say until she heard Zi Xiang talk again.

"Before the doctor came, Xiaojie still held the hands of His Royal Highness Liu Huangzi and refused to let go."

"What did you just say…..?"

Mu Yunjin was startled, her heart was shocked, and her eyes looked askance at Zi Xiang.

Zi Xiang covered her lips and smiled.

"This servant thinks that when Xiaojie is burning up you are very muddled, and held Liu Huangzi's hands."

"……."

Mu Yunjin momentarily felt a little embarra.s.sed. She tightly bit her lip trying to recall the things that happened in the day, but cannot remember at all.

"I held Chu Li's hand, how did Chu Li react?"

Mu Yunjin then asked, and subconsciously looked at her hand.

"His Highness Liu Hiangzi did not say anything, and let Xiaojie hold them until the doctor came to check Xiaojie's pulse and then he let go..."

"It's over, it's over, this time it's over, no face to see people."

Mu Yunjin put her hands over her cheeks. She did not know why she was ill yet she is still in an awkward situation. Her cheeks were a little red and hot.
