Chapter 21 Getting better(2/2)

Prince Jin'an wanted to push himself up, but the maid kneeling beside him immediately noticed and shouted happily that His Highness was awake.

The chatter and laughter outside suddenly stopped, the bead curtain made a sound, and someone came over.

"Your Highness, lie down quickly." Su Xin said hurriedly, looking at Prince Jin'an who was already half sitting up.

Cheng Jiaoniang smiled and walked closer to look at him.

"I feel much better. I've been lying down for so long. Let's sit down for a while," she said.

After hearing what she said, the maids quickly put up cushions and helped King Jin'an sit down.

Sure enough, he had been lying there for too long, and his vision was slightly dizzy. A hand touched his shoulder, feeling the soft warmth through the thin summer clothes.

"Take a sip." Cheng Jiaoniang said, gently holding his shoulder with one hand, and passing the tea bowl to Prince Jin'an's mouth with the other.

The prince of Jin'an County took a sip as he was told.

"Madam, where is the food?" A maid asked outside.

Cheng Jiaoniang looked at the Prince of Jin'an County.

"Want to have dinner with me?" she asked with a slight smile.

………………………………………….

"Can you even sit up and eat?"

When the news reached the outer courtyard, Mr. Gu was so happy that he didn't even bother to eat. He got up and walked back and forth for a few steps.

"Do you regret not letting the prince marry you earlier?" Eunuch Jing said with a smile.

"Earlier? You may not be able to get married earlier." Mr. Gu said, "If she hadn't been buried with her, the Queen Mother would not have let her get married."

The Queen Mother must have regretted it at this time.

"I've heard that Mrs. Cheng is very powerful, but I heard that it feels different from being up close." He twirled his beard and said.

"Yes, I suddenly felt like nothing was a big deal, and I felt particularly relaxed." Eunuch Jing said.

How dangerous it was today, the entire county and prince's palace was about to collapse, but when this woman stepped forward and said just two or three words, the situation was completely reversed.

That's what turning the clouds and the rain means.

Although the king's resurrection is the key and foundation of the matter, why the king can survive is definitely the credit of this woman.

Even though the Confucian disciples don't believe in ghosts and gods, they can't help but have some reverie in their hearts at this moment.

"Eat a bowl of bird's nest porridge."

Doctor Li walked in from outside and said happily.

"This is the first time in a long time that Your Highness has eaten so much."

Mr. Gu and Eunuch Jing looked even happier.

"What are you still doing here?" Doctor Li seemed to have just seen Eunuch Jing, "You don't have to avoid taboos, so why are you hiding out and being lazy?"

Before Eunuch Jing got up and said to leave, Mr. Gu quickly raised his hand to stop him.

"The princess doesn't like having too many people waiting in front of her. If she doesn't summon you, don't come forward to offend her," he said.

Doctor Li stared at him.

"Why do I think these words are so familiar? Mr. Gu, you learn so quickly," he said.

Laughter rang out in the room.

When the boys outside heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other with joy in their expressions.

It's been a long time since I heard laughter at home.

This joy is really the right one.

The light was soft and bright, the wind blew in from the open window, and the hanging mosquito-proof gauze curtains swayed slightly.

Watching Cheng Jiaoniang put down her chopsticks, Banqin hurriedly brought some tea to rinse her mouth, while the waiting maids outside came in, packed the tables and went out.

After learning that the meal was finished, Eunuch Jing and Doctor Li came in.

Dr. Li checked the pulse of King Jin'an and asked him what to say.

Although he could barely speak, it was not even a little bit better than the previous days. Doctor Li was very happy and asked questions.

The Prince of Jin'an County was absent-minded, looking at Cheng Jiaoniang who was sitting by the opposite window and listening to Eunuch Jing's words.

Under the light, her skin becomes whiter and more delicate, her eyes sparkle, and her expression is serious and a bit relaxed, which makes the speaker feel that she is being taken seriously without feeling nervous.

"Your Highness?"

Doctor Li took a step forward and stood in front of Prince Jin'an, blocking his sight.

"Did you hear me?"

"What is there to say?" Prince Jin'an said slowly, "Take medicine when you should, use acupuncture when you should, use acupuncture, there are too many words."

Doctor Li was stunned, then laughed again and looked at Cheng Jiaoniang over there.

Eunuch Jin's face was also filled with astonishment, and he turned to look at Prince Jin'an.

"Your Highness is going too?" he asked.

They were talking about returning home tomorrow. They thought they would cancel it under such circumstances, but they didn't expect Cheng Jiaoniang to say that she wanted to go. Not only was she going, but she also wanted to take Prince Jin'an with her.

"But His Highness's body..." Dr. Li couldn't help but say.

"It will be fine tomorrow." Cheng Jiaoniang said.

Will it be fine tomorrow?

Doctor Li and Eunuch Jing's eyes widened.

Real or fake?

As the night grew darker, after Cheng Jiaoniang came out from the bath, Prince Jin'an was also washed and helped to bed by four servants.

"Is your hair dry?" Cheng Jiaoniang asked.

"Madam did not wash His Highness's hair." The young chamberlain replied respectfully.

Cheng Jiaoniang nodded.

"You guys go down," she said.

The servants responded and left. Banqin and Suxin extinguished the two lights in the room and also left.

"I will stay here tonight, you can go back to the house and sleep." Su Xin said.

Banqin hesitated again.

"After all, such a big thing happened during the day, I'll stay too," she whispered.

The two were talking when they heard Cheng Jiaoniang's voice coming from the other side.

"...Take off your clothes..."

The two were suddenly startled and looked at each other.

It’s normal to take off your clothes while sleeping….

“…..I want more tonight….”

The somewhat weak voice of Prince Jin'an came.

Banqin and Suxin immediately avoided each other's eyes, their faces turning red.

Suxin stretched out her hand to hold Banqin, staggered out of the hall, and went straight to the secondary room on the other side, flashing out the lights in a panic.

As the room fell into darkness, low muffled moans spread from the bedroom over there.

Su Xin covered her head with the quilt.

Madam, please have some mercy.
