late night song

Chapter 141
The human body is really amazing. When the mind is tense, it can suppress any kind of illness, but once it relaxes, the illness will collapse like a mountain.

Gu Yuchu had a headache that was about to explode. His whole body was cold, and he felt even more uncomfortable under the bumps of the carriage.

She cuddled up against Lan Ye and rode in the same carriage with Xiao Ling, shivering constantly.

"When will we arrive at the inn?" Xiao Ling asked, frowning.

"It should be soon." Lan Ye was also very anxious.

"Hurry up and find a quilt, and have someone go to the inn in advance to prepare the soup." Xiao Ling ordered while gently pulling Gu Yuchu to his side.

"No..." Lan Ye didn't react for a moment.

"What are you doing standing still? Fang Zi wants me to write to you?"

Gu Yuchu's head was already confused and he didn't have much energy to push and pull with them. He was like a soft rag doll being held in Xiao Ling's arms.

However, this man's body is indeed very warm.

"Men and women are not intimate, why should I go?" Lan Ye wanted to reach out and snatch Xiu Yuchu, but Xiao Ling's look scared him back.

"Go quickly!" Xiao Ling urged.

Lan Ye thought about it, as her status as a princess naturally made it easier to give orders, and the masculine heat in this man could indeed make Xiaochu feel better, so she no longer struggled.

She got off the carriage and first ordered someone to bring a quilt.

Xiao Ling carefully wrapped Gu Yuchu, who was nestling in his arms, tightly in quilt. Her body gradually became softer and she felt much more stable.

"Is it still cold?" he asked gently.

Gu Yuchu closed his eyes and shook his head gently.

"If you bear with me any longer, we will be at the inn soon."

She nodded obediently again.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Xiao Ling pressed his chin against her forehead, his eyes full of love.

"I want to go home." Gu Yuchu said in a daze, tears streaming down his face quietly, "But I don't have a home anymore."

Xiao Ling was stunned, countless insignificant aches and pains in his heart slowly merged into one, and his consciousness suddenly became confused.

In the past, he only knew that he could not resist everything about this woman, unlocking the sincerity he had protected her for many years, but he did not know that this feeling could accumulate into a thousand-mile pond and an abyss day after day.

He cared about her so much and was afraid that she would be sad. Even if it was only for a second, he couldn't help but blame himself for failing to protect her An Yu with all his strength.

"Xiao Ling." Gu Yuchu called him gently.

"Huh?" The man slowly recovered.

"I have a very pretty sister, and I can't compare to her." Gu Yuchu was confused and mentioned Gu Yuxin.

"Miss Gu Yuchu is as beautiful as a fairy and makes people fascinated." Xiao Ling smiled and mentioned the past events that made him happy.

"If you see her, you will definitely cherish her as a treasure."

"Why?" Xiao Ling frowned and asked the key question.

"It's nothing." Gu Yuchu rubbed his head, then breathed evenly and fell asleep.

Xiao Ling patted her back gently, looked down at her sleeping form, and said to himself: "He and I are different."

An hour passed, and the group of people finally arrived at the post house in Yuanyuan County. Lanye had arranged everything in the post house in advance.

Xiao Ling carried Gu Yuchu into the side room with his arms crossed, and the hot water and decoction were all ready.

But now, her body was no longer cold, but was getting warm all over.

However, with two doctors by her side, Gu Yuchu felt very at ease. She stared at the curtain with half-closed eyes, and the overlapping circles of candlelight surrounded her. Her body gradually relaxed and she fell into a deep sleep soon.

She had a long dream.In her dream, she was standing on a desolate and inhabited desert, and an antelope jumped out. She chased it until she came to a small oasis, where she learned that the antelope was lying on the edge of a pond and pecked at the water.Then she looked up and saw the blue glow that she had never seen in her life. Under the glow, there stood a man. But with the light behind her, she couldn't see his face clearly, but she only felt that he was very familiar. The man was far away. He looked at her for a long time, then turned around and disappeared.

On the third night, Gu Yuchu finally woke up after sleeping for two days and two nights.

She raised her eyes and saw Lan Ye sleeping beside the bed, while Xiao Ling was sitting at a table not far away, playing the pipa and mixing medicinal ingredients.

Someone was guarding him day and night, and Gu Yuchu felt very warm in his heart.

She licked her dry lips and was about to ask for a glass of water when Xiao Ling approached the bed, gently lifted her up and placed a soft pillow on her waist.

"Huh? Wake up." Lan Ye rubbed his sleepy eyes.

"Does your head still hurt?" Xiao Ling handed her a glass of warm water and touched her forehead. Fortunately, the fever had subsided.

"It doesn't hurt." Gu Yuchu struggled to squeeze out two words from his throat, like the pain of licking pepper water and hawthorn juice from a wound, so hoarse that he could barely make a sound.

"Stop talking. Have a good rest. Are you hungry?" Lan Ye asked with concern, and then suddenly remembered something, "I'm still warming the rice soup."

Gu Yuchu nodded, but Xiao Ling had already brought the rice porridge over. He wanted to feed it himself, but Lan Ye snatched it away.

Xiao Ling, who had his beard cut off, sat expressionlessly on the side, staring at Lan Ye as he fed the pale and weak woman one mouthful at a time without blinking. He felt a little embarrassed looking at Gu Yuchu.

On the fourth day, Gu Yuchu's voice improved a lot.

"Has the rain stopped?" she asked softly, leaning on the bed.

"It's amazing, after that night, it never rained heavily again."

"Where are we now?"

"Ningyuan County." Lan Ye replied.

"Aren't you going back to Qiongzhou?"

"How can you catch up when you are so sick?"

"Where's Lejia Pengkang?"

"He visited the disaster-stricken counties non-stop and personally arranged disaster relief. We left a carriage and he returned to meet us in two days and returned to Yuquan Palace."

"You are really diligent and caring for the people." Gu Yuchu muttered with half-squinted eyes.

"Isn't that right? Our family, Kangkang, is no longer a child, and managing politics every day is very hard."

"I'm much better today. My bones are falling apart when I'm lying on the bed. Can you get up and walk around?" Gu Yuchu turned sideways and found a comfortable position.

"No, let's rest for two more days." Xiao Ling entered the room with the decoction and immediately denied it.

Gu Yuchu helplessly winked at Lan Ye, who smiled maliciously at her.

"Drink medicine."

Xiao Ling handed the dark, bitter-looking soup that night to Gu Yuchu.And she didn't hesitate at all. She took it and drank it in one gulp without even frowning.

Xiao Ling was a little surprised that she didn't behave like a family with a delicate daughter, and refused to take the medicine because she disliked it, but he was very satisfied with her well-behavedness.

"Uncle Master, you are too ungrateful." Lan Ye sat aside, witnessed the whole process, and smacked his mouth.

"Can gentleness cure diseases?" Xiao Ling rolled his eyes at her and lectured her.

"Of course you can, but you are still my uncle, don't you know how to heal the body with medicine and stones, and the warmth of love heals the heart?"

"But some people are stubborn and unyielding." Xiao Ling said with a cold face, referring to Gu Yuchu who was lying on the bed.

Lan Ye rolled his eyes and said, "Uncle Master is absolutely right."

Being teased like this, Gu Yuchu had no choice but to pretend to be sleepy, get into bed and ignore them in order to avoid embarrassment.
