Chapter 318 Lifespan is shortened
Why do some people have everything but are still not satisfied?
Xiao Zhengdu has always envied Xiao Zhengze. He was born with the most unquestionable status, with a mother and a sister who loved him.
Even when the previous emperor was alive, he never suffered.
Having so much, why does he always feel that others are taking it away from him?
Everyone favors him - including Lou Xiao.
Xiao Zhengdu had been looking at her silently, wanting to know why she was so nice to Xiao Zhengze.
Just because of illness?
But Lou Xiao never turned back, not even to look at him.
The imperial physician brought a new decoction of medicine. Under the gaze of many eyes, Xiao Zhengze drank it without hesitation.
Maybe because things went as planned, their faces became a little rosy.
He even stared at Lou Xiao with sparkling eyes, hoping to get her praise.
Lou Xiao was very obedient, staying by his bed and asking him carefully if he felt any discomfort, whether he had an appetite, etc.
After Xiao Zhengze answered all the questions one by one, he grabbed Lou Xiao's hand and asked her to stay with him and not leave.
"I'll leave after you fall asleep." Lou Xiao consoled him, "You need to get better soon and stop being angry."
Emotions have a huge impact on people. They can make them sick or make them lose control.
She didn't want to see anyone die because of her. Mo Jingchun's incident had taught her a lesson.
If the promise of marriage can allow him to recover from his illness with peace of mind, then Lou Xiao feels that it is worth it.
I talked a lot with Xiao Zhengze, and on the surface he seemed much better.
But when they went to the side hall to call the imperial physicians, they saw that almost every one of them had a worried look on their faces.
The Queen said unhappily, "Tell me the truth, what happened to him?"
The chief physician led the rest of the imperial physicians to kneel down tremblingly. Anilan hesitated for a while, then quietly moved to stand beside the servant.
"Your Majesty, we are incompetent... Your Highness's vomiting of blood this time has damaged his foundation. I'm afraid, I'm afraid that his life span will be shortened."
The Queen slammed her hand on the table, "How do you serve me?"
Xiao Zhengze has been said to have difficulty growing up since he was a child, and he has grown up with many setbacks over the years.
Although everyone knew that he was physically weak, for quite some time over the years, he was almost the same as an ordinary person.
People thought he had fully recovered, but unexpectedly, he vomited blood and returned to his original form.
The imperial physician glanced at Lou Xiao beside the empress, wondering if it was this person who had caused Her Highness to be so agitated.
If you want to blame someone, blame His Highness for falling in love with her.
However, there are indeed some unreasonable aspects in His Highness's situation, but the Imperial Hospital is not sure and dare not make it too clear.
The Queen was furious that Xiao Zhengze did not take care of himself and had to be so stubborn. She also blamed the imperial doctors for being useless and for not being able to give Xiao Zhengze a good body for all these years.
But now even if they were killed, it would be useless. Xiao Zhengze needed treatment. The Queen could only sigh.
"Try your best. If you can cure him, I will reward you handsomely."
There were still many things to do in the court, so she asked Lou Xiao to continue guarding for the time being and walked away.
Xiao Zhengdu looked at Lou Xiao, but still didn't get her attention, so he had to follow the Queen in disappointment.
Lou Xiao went to find Anilan to find out the details. In order to save his life, the imperial doctors always kept only half of what they said.
Anilan didn't have those thoughts, so when Lou Xiao asked her, she just said it directly.
"This has nothing to do with me. He was fine in the first few days. I don't know why, but his health has deteriorated drastically in recent days, and I still can't find the reason."
Anilan held his chest, "They don't dare to admit that they don't know the reason, so they can only blame it on their emotions - although it does have some impact."
Lou Xiao frowned, "You don't know either. It's not poison?"
"The amount of poison in his body was actually very small, but he had symptoms because of his poor health. It was not Nanzi's poison, and I don't know if there was any other poison."
After saying this, Anilan moved closer to Lou Xiao and whispered, "Hey, do you think the emperor won't blame me? If she gets really angry, remember to tell me so I can escape back to Nanzi."
Lou Xiao tapped her forehead and said, "Don't even think about it. Stay in the capital and don't go anywhere. I will protect your life. Don't be afraid."
After getting her assurance, Anilan finally felt relieved, but she was still a little worried.
"Are you really going to marry him? I don't think he will live long. His body is so bad that no amount of expensive medicine can make up for it."
Lou Xiao's heart suddenly jumped, and she grabbed Anilan, "What did you say!"
"I don't believe you can't see it." Anilan muttered, "Otherwise why did you agree to get married."
Lou Xiao had to admit in her heart that this was indeed the reason why she suddenly agreed to Xiao Zhengze's request.
But she still held out some hope. She was not a doctor, so maybe she had made a mistake?
"...Don't let others know." Lou Xiao said with difficulty, "The Imperial Hospital didn't tell you, and you can't tell them either."
Anilan had an "I understand" expression on his face. Seeing that Lou Xiao was a little sad, he comforted her dryly.
"He seems to like you very much. Why don't you spend more time with him... I'll go take another look at his pulse record to see if there's anything I haven't noticed..."
Anilan found an excuse and slipped away. Lou Xiao sat there blankly for a long time, not knowing why things turned out like this.
Is Xiao Zhengze's body really in such a dilapidated state?
She was a little afraid to look at him, and just sat alone for a long time. Then the waiter came over and said that Xiao Zhengze was looking for her.
Lou Xiao closed her eyes, answered, and put on a straight face, trying not to show her sadness.
Xiao Zhengze is a sensitive person, it would be bad if he knew about this.
Back in the palace, Xiao Zhengze was sitting on the bed looking at the materials sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and discussing with the servants around him what style of new clothes to make.
When Lou Xiao came in, Xiao Zhengze smiled as soon as he saw her, "Come on, come on! I think this dress made of pollen and butterfly will look good on you.
Can I ask the embroidery studio to make one for each of us?"
He asked the waiter to hold it up for her to see as if it were a treasure. Lou Xiao raised her hand and flipped through it.
He said casually, "I have a lot of clothes in my house. If you like, just make a few more for yourself."
Xiao Zhengze's expression turned pale, and Lou Xiao quickly changed the subject.
"But it does look good. If you make it for me, how long will it take to finish?"
This means I agree, Xiao Zhengze said happily,
"The embroidery room is very fast. It will be finished in five days." He waved his hand and asked the servant to measure her body.
"Hurry! Come and be careful. You are in luck. The Duke of Zhenguo is going to wear the clothes you made!"
He held his face and watched Lou Xiao being surrounded. She raised her hands and turned sideways obediently, just like she was at home.
Xiao Zhengze imagined the day when they woke up together in the house.
Wash and dress together.
She straightened his clothes and he put a crown on her head.
This is what life is like after marriage, right?
