Chapter 394 The Hired Wife is a Big Brother (27)

"The antidote for Manduo is in Tianyun Mountain. After the snow melts, I will find it for your mother. You don't need to worry, her body can still last for another year or two."

Su Qiruo looked down on the emperor's softness, as an emperor, he only had suspicions but no courage, so it was no wonder that his subordinates poured poison into the pillow without knowing it.

Who can blame this?
No one to blame, only herself to blame.

Leng Muxi nodded quickly, looking a little out of control.

"I believe you."

"Everything will be fine. Your empress actually loves you very much. Even if it's for you, she will definitely not let those people go on messing around."

Su Qiruo was actually a little guilty when she said this, the old emperor was not a qualified mother, nor a qualified emperor.

At least Su Qiruo thinks so compared to the previous emperors of the Su clan.

The news of the Chi family's assassination of His Royal Highness was widely spread yesterday, and the emperor did not see any action today.

Even if she is afraid of the Chi family, she shouldn't do nothing like this.

Isn't this clearly telling the people all over the world that the emperor is afraid of the Chi family?

She doesn't even care about her son being assassinated on the street, how can she convince the public?
If the ruler is weak, the ministers will be strong, and if the ruler is strong, the ministers will be weak. This is the same principle since ancient times.

As a monarch, it is a bit ridiculous to hold back his ministers everywhere.

"Actually, I don't want the throne at all."

This position may be full of temptations for others, but for Leng Muxi, it is just a burden.

It weighed him down.

For many years, he has been living under the pressure of this chair.

"If it's yours, you should guard it carefully, and don't say such frustrating words."

Su Qiruo took out an orange out of nowhere, and carefully peeled it with her lowered eyes.

Leng Muxi glanced at it, and the tip of his nose immediately filled with a scent of orange.

This smell can wake up the mind, Leng Muxi felt that he suddenly woke up.

The messy thoughts that popped up in my mind also faded away.

Su Qiruo gave him half of the peeled oranges, but still picked all the tendons of the oranges.

"Suddenly I miss the dumplings stuffed with celery and beef in the mansion."

Su Qiruo said something inexplicably.

"When I get back, I will order the dining room to make it for you."

After Leng Muxi found out that she was from the Beiqing Kingdom, she deliberately researched a lot of the customs and habits of the Beiqing Kingdom.

Beiqing seems to eat dumplings for Chinese New Year, and copper coins are wrapped inside.

Because he met her, he knew all this.

Leng Muxi ate dumplings with Su Qiruo, and also ate a lot of glutinous rice dumplings.

Seeing him take the initiative to eat more food for the first time, Su Qiruo felt a little surprised.

However, she was still asleep here, and Fufeng over there ran over in a hurry.

"My son-in-law, hurry up and see Your Highness, His Highness is sick."

"what happened?"

Su Qiruo sat up abruptly, rushed out without even wrapping her cloak in time.

"This subordinate doesn't know, but after waking up, His Highness started sweating coldly, his face was pale, and he was clutching his stomach and complaining of pain."

Fufeng was very anxious, he knew that the son-in-law had excellent medical skills, so he came to look for him.

According to His Highness, they are not allowed to tell the son-in-law about his illness.

Su Qiruo's steps were faster, Fufeng couldn't keep up, and the person had disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Leng Muxi huddled on the bed, clutching his stomach and trembling with pain, but still biting his lips and refusing to cry out.

Su Qiruo stepped forward and turned his body, raised her hand to feel his pulse.

"How did you come?"

Leng Muxi didn't expect that Fufeng would find her, she kept crying in the morning, he didn't want people to disturb her rest.

This Fufeng really became more and more bold, and dared to make decisions for his master.

Su Qiruo supported Leng Muxi to lean on her shoulder, raised her hand to cover his abdomen and pressed gently.

"If it hurts somewhere, you must tell me."

After pressing several locations, Su Qiruo found the cause.

The little prince's stomach was already weak, and he got sick after eating too much indigestible food in the morning, especially the glutinous rice dumpling.

Su Qiruo prescribed Zhang Xiaoshi's prescription and asked Fufeng to boil the medicine, but her hands never left Leng Muxi's abdomen, gently rubbing for him.

"It's my fault too. I should take good care of you. Glutinous rice is hard to digest, so it's naturally uncomfortable to be stuck here."

She was so sleepy at the time that she didn't pay attention to what he ate.

Coupled with the fact that his body has already recovered, Su Qiruo did not expect this to happen.

"Remember not to be tired in the future, and eat less raw, cold and hard things."

Leng Muxi leaned on Su Qiruo's shoulder, looked at her with her head raised slightly, her cheeks were peachy, and there was a light in her eyes that Su Qiruo couldn't understand.

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

The young man muttered, since he was a child, he knew that those who took the initiative to contact him to please him were all for profit.

But she is different, she doesn't want anything for him, and she pays a lot for him.

He's not stupid, he can feel how well she treats him, it's not just a show.

But it was precisely because of this drowning tenderness that made him even more greedy.

He didn't want to let her go.

No matter who she is, he just wants her to stay by his side.

Always be his son-in-law.

Su Qiruo stared blankly at the young man who was close at hand, and the sound of her heartbeat also became chaotic.

"Because I want to be nice to you."

I can't help but want to be nice to him, to see him eat more, to see him smile, to hear him say a few more words every day, to want him to be as unrestrained and unrestrained as other teenagers, to be his safe haven.

Yes!

Since when did she take him under her wing?

She couldn't remember for a while.

White fingers lightly pressed on the back of Su Qiruo's warm hand, and the young man looked into her eyes with clear eyes.

"Then will you leave later?"

He wanted to ask a long time ago, but he never dared to ask.

Now that he is sick, people have become a lot more hypocritical, and he asked about it unconsciously.

Su Qiruo tightened her fingers, dodging his gaze and moving away.

Will you go?
meeting.

But she was a little afraid to say it.

Does she want to tell him that the identities between them doom them to die without a cause?
Or continue to lie to each other telling each other that their friendship is just a transaction and they are just people in a play.

The intense gaze in the boy's eyes gradually faded, and then returned to calm.

He knew that she was not someone who made promises easily, and if she couldn't keep it, she would definitely not nod.

But he was disappointed and sad.

She didn't say anything, he understood everything.

Forget it, the country of Southern Chu has long been riddled with holes, so why should he involve her in it and make her suffer with him.

The boy smiled faintly, and moved the hand covering the back of her hand away.

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

It hurts, how can it not hurt?

It's just that no matter how painful it is, it's not as painful as heartache.

Su Qiruo withdrew her hand and supported him to lean on the cushion behind her, not daring to raise her head with some guilty conscience.
