The Empress Dowager

Chapter 403 Illness
The weather in October was very cold. Nangong Yue felt chilly after wiping her body. Nangong Yue had a premonition that she must have caught a cold this time.

Nangong Yue lay on the bed and fell asleep in a daze, not even knowing when Murong Yu would come back.

Murong Yu took off his clothes, walked slowly to the bed, took off his boots, lay down beside Nangong Yue, pulled the brocade quilt over his body, stretched out his long arms, and hugged Nangong Yue into his arms.

Through the thin clothes, Murong Yu could feel a burst of burning heat on Nangong Yue's body, Murong Yu frowned, and Bai Yu's hand touched Nangong Yue's forehead, it was also very hot.

Murong Yu took Nangong Yue's pulse again, frowned even more, got out of bed, took out a white porcelain bottle from the medicine box, poured two small brown pills into the palm of his hand, poured another cup of hot tea, and walked to the bed Putting the tea on the small table, she helped Nangong Yue up, took a sip of tea by herself, put the pill in Nangong Yue's mouth, leaned over, and slowly poured the tea in her mouth into Nangong Yue's mouth.

Nangong Yue subconsciously swallowed the tea and the pills together. Murong Yu gently put Nangong Yue down, went to bed and hugged Nangong Yue into her arms, lightly waved her jade hand, and extinguished the candlelight.

This night, Murong Yu woke up every once in a while, until Nangong Yue's fever subsided, and then he closed his eyes with peace of mind, and took a rest.

The next day, when Nangong Yue woke up, she felt that her head was a little swollen, her nose was still a little blocked, and she looked listless.

Dongmei came in with a decoction: "Miss, I've taken the medicine."

Nangong Yue took the decoction in Dongmei's hand, scooped up a spoonful and blew on it, and took a sip, suddenly her mouth felt bitter.

"My lord is going to train soldiers?"

"Well, my lord asked my servant to tell you to take good care of your illness and stop running around," Dongmei said.

Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows, but said nothing.

After a while, Nangong Yue finished drinking the decoction, put the decoction bowl in her hand on the table, and took a bite of the candied fruit that Dongmei handed over.

Nangong Yue felt uncomfortable all over, so she lay in the tent for a whole day without going out.

Two days later, Nangong Yue felt that her cold was almost gone, so she left the camp.

The sun was shining warmly on her body, Nangong Yue stretched her waist greatly, and Dongmei who was following behind looked at Nangong Yue nervously:
"Miss, the enemy army can come in at any time, let's go back! It's too dangerous outside."

Nangong Yue waved her hand: "Don't worry, the enemy army lost a battle last time, it is impossible to recover so quickly. Let's go, let's go to see the prince training."

As Nangong Yue said, she walked towards the school grounds.

"Miss, it's a bit inappropriate for you to dress like this." Dongmei looked at Nangongyue in a military uniform and her black hair tied up with a rope. At first glance, she thought it was a man.

If the prince sees the lady like this, he will be unhappy.

"What's wrong? This military uniform is very good. We are going to the school grounds to watch their military training. It would be weird to wear a skirt. Otherwise, Dongmei, go back! Don't follow me."

Nangong Yue took a look at Dongmei, Dongmei was dressed like a lady, those little soldiers looked at her, wouldn't they be in love?
Dongmei was panicked by Nangong Yue's look, and she tightened her clothes: "Miss, wait for this servant, this servant will go change clothes before going with you."

Dongmei ran back to the camp as soon as she said that.

The corners of Nangong Yue's mouth curled up, and she walked towards the school grounds.
