A Romantic Beauty Around Imperial City - C198 Are you worried about me
Qian Li’s words carried a gentleness that even she herself could not detect, and Gong Ming instantly smiled. His expression was still very bad, and her speech seemed to be very strenuous; her voice, which she had not opened her mouth for many days, was very hoarse.
“Qian Li, if this king didn’t hear wrongly, you are worrying about this king right now, right?”
Qian Li wanted to say yes, but she was worried that the moment she said it, Gong Ming would misunderstand him even more, so she forcefully retracted her hand, “Your highness is Qian Li’s backer, if anything happens to Your highness, Qian Li will naturally worry.”
With that said, Qian Li poured Gong Ming a cup of tea, and then thought that she might not be able to drink the tea, so she looked at another pot. There was indeed boiled water inside, probably because the butler was prepared to prevent Gong Ming from waking up at any time.
“Drink your saliva first, then tell me what you want to eat. Ah, forget it, you’d better not tell me, because with your current state, even if you wanted to eat something, you definitely wouldn’t be able to do so, so …” Qian Li will help you see what you can eat, but … “It’s about soup, water and the like.”
Originally, Qian Li’s answer made Gong Ming a little discouraged, but after hearing the teasing words that followed, her mood immediately became much better, “It’s better to have soup and water than to starve to death. These past few days, I’ve even been dreaming and eating.”
Qian Li couldn’t help but laugh instantly. “Since that’s the case, why aren’t you waking up and eating? This is your house, and no one will say anything.”
“It feels so good to be able to sleep well,” he continued, as soon as the joke was over. I’m afraid no one would want me to wake up so early. ”
Hearing that, Qian Li’s hand that was holding the cup trembled slightly, “So, Your Highness always knew who did it.”
This kind of question, was actually a useless question. As expected, Gong Ming instantly smiled, “Could it be that you want to tell this duke that you don’t know who it is, Qian Li?”
Qian Li almost choked to death on Gong Ming’s words, she said, “But to Qian Li, it looks like there is no need for you to take such a big risk.
“You want to stop before it’s too late, but there are people who won’t give you the chance. You don’t know how ruthless that person was when he attacked. This King will be done for if he makes even the slightest mistake.”
“But …” Qian Li couldn’t say a word, and could only look at Gong Ming’s neck as he listened to his hoarse voice. Is this kind of sacrifice really worth it? ”
“Where did all this money come from in this world, is it worth it or not? There are many things that, once started, there is no room for turning back. All I know is that, when two paths meet, the brave win. ”
These words once again made Qian Li unable to refute him.
No matter what time, place, or whatever situation he faced, he was able to calmly face the problem. From the beginning to the end, he knew clearly what he wanted, so he didn’t hesitate to pay any price in order to achieve the goal in his heart.
Perhaps … He was right.
On the road to success, any rain or wind was a test. Only after the storm could one see the rainbow.
In this world where the strong preyed on the weak, even if he wanted to pretend to be weak, no one would give him the chance to do so.
“You’re right.” Qian Li sighed, “But after this incident, the emperor should completely relax his guard against you, your highness. You should be able to rest for a while.”
“However, don’t tell anyone that I have already awoken. From today onwards, you will live here, eat here, sleep here, and while you eat, I will also eat.”
Qian Li knew that he did not mean it that way, and there were a lot of outer rooms in this house, so she could just wait by the side.
“However …”
“But what?” Qian Li was not the type of person who liked to hesitate, so seeing her like this, Gong Ming felt a little curious.
“The empress dowager was very concerned about you and told me to tell her about your condition every day.”
Perhaps, no one had ever openly told him that anyone was concerned about him, so when Gong Ming heard that the Royal Grandma, who he had not seen for many times before, was actually concerned about him, he was completely stunned.
“She. “Care about me?”
Sure enough, his reaction was exactly as Qian Li had expected, but she still nodded seriously, “I didn’t know the relationship between you and the empress dowager, so I didn’t make any evaluation, but what I’m going to say next is only my own suggestion. If Your Highness wants to hear it, Qian Li will say it. If you don’t want to, it doesn’t matter if Qian Li doesn’t say it. ”
Gong Ming, who had just woken up felt pain all over his body, furthermore, it was easy for his body to become soft after sleeping for too long. Fortunately, Qian Li was quite considerate, she extended her hand and helped him sit up a bit, carefully resting on the seat behind him, worried that something might happen to Gong Ming’s neck.
Her body was emitting a faint fragrance, just like the fragrance of the peach blossoms in the courtyard she lived in. It was faint and not rich, but it was just right, and it instantly captivated his mind.
“On the other hand, there are very few people who talk to This King about her. If you are willing to do so, This King won’t mind listening to them.”
As they spoke, Qian Li had already made up her mind to retreat. The fragrance at the tip of her nose had dissipated by a lot, and Gong Ming felt a little lost, but luckily, when she raised her eyes and saw her by her side, she felt that this wasn’t too bad.
He really had just woken up. He had been in a deep sleep, and there were people talking beside him. However, he kept hypnotizing himself to sleep.
He was even worried that if he woke up with a familiar person beside him, without a single person he cared about, how pitiful would it be?
But the truth was, even after thinking about it for a long time, he still didn’t know who the person he cared about was.
Only when a faint fragrance of peach blossoms lingered at the tip of his nose did he hear a familiar voice. It was only when he opened his eyes that he noticed that the first person he saw was Qian Li.
At that moment, he felt as if he had understood something.
But…
Qian Li didn’t seem to like being near him, nor did she like being in too much contact with him.
However, it didn’t matter. His greatest strength was his patience. He would definitely get what he wanted. So, what difference did it make if he stayed longer?
In any case, there was still a long way to go.
When she was making the tea, she had only cared about giving it to the empress dowager. She hadn’t paid attention to it herself, and when she returned, she had just directly returned here, not to mention eating, she didn’t even have any tea, and now that she thought about it, she felt very hungry.
As a result, Qian Li’s eyes turned, and she instantly straightened her body. She walked to the door, and only opened it a crack, but from that angle, she could not see Gong Ming’s position.
Xiao Lan, I’m hungry. Go to the kitchen and get me some delicious food, remember to make more, that’s right, add two more bowls of porridge. The doctor said that eating because you’ve starved for too long isn’t good for your health.
After instructing, without waiting for Xiao Lan to speak, Qian Li turned and closed the door, then entered the room. The rooms were big enough, if they were to speak at the innermost area, no one would be able to hear it from the outside. Furthermore, with Li Nian and the rest of the people watching, it would be impossible for anyone to get close.
Qian Li knew that these people were always concerned about Gong Ming’s health. Even though the news of him waking up could be spread over everyone, it couldn’t be hidden from them. Most importantly, they were absolutely sincere towards Gong Ming. And there was absolutely no need to worry about their betrayal or anything else.
Thus, Qian Li thought for a moment, just in case, when she opened the door again, Xiao Lan’s figure had already disappeared. Thus, after pondering for a moment, Qian Li still shouted out, “I do not know who is guarding here today, but I believe you all know about the situation inside, following that we have some important things to say, watch out, do not let anyone near. Ah, yes, except the butler and Xiao Lan.”
The reason for the exception of the butler, was that he was the person closest to Gong Ming in the entire Duke Palaces. Qian Li knew that no matter who Gong Ming hid from, he would never hide it from him.
As for Xiao Lan, it was all because of her disappointing stomach.
After saying that, Qian Li turned and walked back into the house. She did not feel that anything was wrong, but after seeing Gong Ming’s mysterious smile, she suddenly realised something.
Don’t let anyone near you. There are important things to do, and it’s… A man and a woman alone in a room…
It was hard not to be misunderstood.
Qian Li waved her hand, “Others may misunderstand, but the people of the Duke Palaces won’t. After all, I am still a princess, and am now your little sister. Furthermore, in everyone’s eyes, you are still unconscious, and even if you have to have something, it is still … Am I right? But everyone can see that Qian Li doesn’t have any feelings for the Duke. ”
Qian Li’s explanation did not make Gong Ming angry. On the contrary, it was very rare for him to see Qian Li talking so much and being so mischievous. He felt it was very fresh.
Therefore, she simply did not speak up, and allowed Qian Li to speak about her on his own.
But while talking, Qian Li suddenly felt that something was amiss. When she turned to look at Gong Ming, he realized that she had a silly smile on her face.
