Feng Xing - Chapter 76
Even Feng Sheng didn’t expect that she was not sick during the cold winter, but she fell ill when the weather got warmer.
At first, she felt a little headache, and then she felt a little hot that night. Sure enough, she was not feeling well the next day. She insisted on getting up and copied two pages of Buddhist scriptures, and then went to lie down again. At night, she developed a high fever and couldn’t even get up.
Fortunately, the jailer who brought food came, and she insisted on talking to him, but no one brought her a doctor, and no one gave her medicine. The jailer brought her a jug of cold water, and told her to drink it water.
Is this a new way to die?
But Feng Sheng was not surprised. Even if Emperor Jianping wanted to kill her, he would not do it directly. It is actually a very good choice to let her die of illness.
After thinking it over, Feng Sheng didn’t worry about whether someone had hired a doctor for him, and just lay on the bed waiting to die.
However, she overestimated her own endurance and underestimated people’s desire to survive. The feeling of being burned to death was too uncomfortable. Every time she felt that she couldn’t bear it anymore, she couldn’t help getting up to find a pot of water.
I have to say that the jailer was quite experienced. The jug was placed on the table next to the bed. She tilted her head, aimed at the spout, and could drink into her mouth with one hand.
As for the food, she really couldn’t get up to eat, and no one fed her. Someone would come to bring her food every day. If she didn’t eat, she would take away the previous meal.
Occasionally, Feng Sheng tilted her head and looked at the fairly sumptuous meal on the table, thinking that the other party was deliberately torturing her. Sometimes I feel that the other party is reckless, knowing that she can’t eat, so I give it away.
She didn’t know that the Dali Temple didn’t want to care about her for a long time, and the reason why she kept giving it away like this was because the money sent by Wei Wang’s mansion to open a small stove according to the rules had not been used up.
This is an unwritten rule. It should be noted that anyone who can be locked up in Dali Temple is generally either rich or noble. For these masters, you can’t use those methods of starving and feeding bad food. Not only can it not be used, but it should be as convenient as possible. After all, in the past 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, who knows who will not be able to stand up one day? Even if you can’t turn over, you still have three friends and four friends, and if you can try not to offend them, you won’t be offended by such trivial things.
Just when Feng Sheng was thinking about whether he should continue to seek death, or brazenly try to break his leg, and want to eat that meal, the cell door suddenly opened.
She sees a person.
This person has not been here for a long time.
Seriously, since she entered this cell, she has only seen him twice, and each time it was because of someone next to him for questioning.
At this time, she already felt that she was about to die, and when she saw him suddenly, she felt that she was dreaming.
But why is this dream so real, she can even feel his breath on her face, and hug her up? But soon, darkness enveloped her, Feng Sheng thought, she really died.
It’s just dead, how can you still feel it?
She felt that person hugged her and walked out of the cell, just like how he hugged her back then when he left the chief rudder of the Salt Gang.
When Feng Sheng woke up again, he was in a bright wing room.
She saw a face that suddenly disappeared when she realized that she had woken up. After a while, she saw many faces coming, two of which were very familiar.
It is Zhichun and Zhiqiu.
“Master.”
Zhiqiu hugged Fengsheng and cried, while Zhichun was beside her wiping her eyes again and again.
After crying for a while, Zhichun told Zhiqiu to stop crying and give Feng Sheng something to eat first, and then drink medicine. Only then did Zhiqiu react, and helped Feng Sheng up from the bed.
Leaning in Zhiqiu’s arms, drank a bowl of porridge, and took medicine, Feng Sheng finally knew the general situation.
According to Zhiqiu, she and Zhichun had come to the capital a long time ago and had been with Uncle Yu and the others. It wasn’t until later that I didn’t know what King Wei and Uncle Yu had said, so Uncle Yu left them two in King Wei’s mansion, and he took Dao Qi and the others back to Yangzhou.
Feng Sheng still has business in Yangzhou. These businesses were private salt business in order to force Emperor Jianping to reform the salt administration when he was in Taizhou. Later, the Huaibei New Deal was changed to being an official salt, and he never lost it. It was also to find a breadwinner for Uncle Yu Daoqi and the others, and by the way, subsidize Feng Sheng’s expenses that he could only pay for.
Feng Sheng has been an official in Lianghuai for the past few years, and he didn’t get a few taels of salary, and the amount of money paid in was more than tens of thousands. It was not supported by these businesses, and it would have been difficult to turn around, so these businesses must not be lost.
As for Feng Sheng himself, he has been in a coma for more than ten days since he came back. It wasn’t because her illness had been delayed for so long that she was so serious, but because she was overworked and ill all of a sudden broke out. In the past few years in Lianghuai, in order to plan to reverse the case for her father, she drank wine like water, slept only a few hours a day, and kept spinning every day, which was already at the end of her strength.
According to the doctor who treated her, her body needs to be taken care of, otherwise she will be suspected of having a short life.
Short life?
She thought she was going to die, but she was rescued by King Wei.
How did he save her?
This question was finally answered after King Wei appeared.
King Wei didn’t appear until the third day after she woke up.
Feng Sheng originally thought that he would show up on the first day, or the second day, but unexpectedly it was the third day. She couldn’t help wondering if he regretted it.
After all, she knew in her heart that if he could save her, he would have to pay a price.
They are all people who have died several times, Feng Sheng didn’t hide it, so he asked this question face to face.
King Wei didn’t seem to want to hide it from her, and told her about the matter.
After Feng Sheng heard it, she couldn’t express what she felt in her heart.
She didn’t seem to be surprised, she seemed to have realized it a long time ago, and of course she also had emotions such as emotion, guilt, etc., but she bit the bullet and walked all the way, owed him too much, it seemed that her skin had been thickened a long time ago.
“I don’t think it’s a good deal for you to do this business. After losing so much, and earning a sick child, you have lost a lot of capital.” She said with a smile.
Seeing the smile on her face, King Wei was a little annoyed.
This is heartless, he racked his brains and tricks, lost everything, and just changed such a plain sentence. But hearing her say that, he was a little happy again. Anyway, his mood was very complicated, so he could only put on a sullen face and pretend to be cold.
“Actually, it’s nothing. This matter has spread too far, and everyone involved in it will be feared. In such an unclear situation, instead of becoming a target in the early stage, it’s better to stay quiet for two years before talking about other things.”
“They probably didn’t expect that their good life would come to an end when they pulled the prince off the horse. They might have thought of it, but there was no way out.” After a pause, she glanced at him: “In this case, His Royal Highness Wei Wang would also like to thank you Me, with my way of retreat, you can rest easy.”
King Wei was so angry that he wanted to shake his face at her, but he couldn’t bear to see her pale face.
That day he finally finished everything and went to pick her up. When he opened the door and walked in, he saw her lying there without a sound. Her face was also so white, even whiter than now, with a feeling that she was almost transparent and was about to disappear. At that time, his heart felt as if it was being pulled fiercely by someone, and it was about to burst in an instant. Only then did he realize that the poison of this woman in him was too deep, and there was no cure for it.
“You take good care of your illness. When you recover, we will get married.”
“In such a hurry? I still want to go back to Shaoxing. My father’s entry into the ancestral grave has not yet been done.”
“You don’t need to worry about this matter. Your subordinates returned to Shaoxing within a few days after the case was finalized. Now your task is to take good care of your illness. I don’t want you to be sick on the day of your wedding and unable to fulfill your obligations as a princess. “
Feng Sheng didn’t expect that King Wei would suddenly talk dirty to him, and seeing him standing up and taking off his clothes, he didn’t know what he was going to do, he was terrified, his face lost the color just as he was a little bit.
“what are you doing?”
King Wei threw off the quilt and lay down in his middle coat.
“What do you think I want to do? Sleep.” As he said, he rubbed her waist twice with his big palm: “Look at you, you are so skinny, you only have a few bones left, what can I do.”
Having said that, he pulled her into his arms and hugged her again.
King Wei soon fell asleep.
Feng Sheng waited for his breathing to stabilize, and propped himself up to look at him. Seeing that his eyes were blue, as if he had been tired for many days and didn’t look like he had a good rest, a soreness welled up in his heart.
I want to cry, I feel hypocritical, I haven’t cried for too long, I completely forgot how tears flow, I can only carefully lean into his arms, listen to his heartbeat, and gradually fall asleep.
That’s all?
That seems fine as well.
