Chapter 544 The Prince Wakes Up
Chapter 544 The Prince Wakes Up
Su Lingyue felt a burning pain on her back and lay on the mattress which was softer than usual, but still couldn't fall asleep, so she stayed up all night.
As Caidie Caiyi came in with the medicine, they saw Su Lingyue staring at them with dark circles under her eyes.
Caiyi put down the tray and hurried over. "Miss, what are you doing?"
Seeing them coming, Su Lingyue's eyes instantly turned red, and she looked aggrieved, "My back hurts, come and give me a fan."
"okay!"
Caidie put down the clothes in her hands and hurried to find a fan.
Su Lingyue's back was completely scabbed and blood-red. Caiyi couldn't help but shudder when she saw it.
"Miss, does it hurt? Next time something like this happens, let me do it! I'm not afraid of pain." Caiyi said, her eyes slightly moist.
Su Lingyue raised her eyelids and looked at Caiyi. It felt like there was a hot spring in her heart, with warmth flowing continuously.
After experiencing the Queen's betrayal, his aching heart seemed to be instantly healed by these words.
"Who doesn't feel pain? You're all very important to me. I won't feel any pain in a couple of days. It's okay, okay?"
Caiyi wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and choked up, saying, "Miss, please don't use such methods to harm yourself. Your delicate body can't stand it."
Su Lingyue smiled weakly, "Okay, I'll try not to use it in the future."
Halfway through washing up, Caidie came back with a fan.
It is a folding fan commonly used by men.
Caiyi expressed her doubts about Caidie's vision, "How can a girl use this?"
Caidie opened the fan and fanned Caiyi twice, her eyes sparkling as she asked, "Isn't it much cooler than the wind from a round fan?"
Feeling the cool breeze, Caiyi nodded in satisfaction and said to her with a smile, "You are so thoughtful."
After receiving the praise, Caidie happily put down her fan and helped Su Lingyue wash up.
After breakfast, Su Lingyue returned to bed to recuperate. Caidie sat beside the bed and fanned her gently to help relieve the pain.
*
After sharing a bed with Xiao Yu for such a long time, Su Lingyue always felt empty inside when she slept without that cool body beside her.
"How is the prince?"
Caidie was concentrating on fanning herself. When she heard Su Lingyue's words, she was stunned for a moment, "Ah, the prince? I don't know. Yan Qing and Doctor Lu are in the main room and they don't let anyone else in."
Caidie seemed very dissatisfied with Yan Qing's behavior. She pouted angrily and said, "He didn't even tell me when I asked him!"
Thinking that Xiao Yu fell into a coma because of her carelessness, Su Lingyue felt like there was a blunt knife in her heart, cutting her heart all the time.
My eyes were burning and tears were dripping like beads from a broken string.
Seeing her crying, Caidie hurriedly went to wipe Su Lingyue's tears. For a moment, she didn't know whether to put down the fan first or take the handkerchief first.
"Miss, there's no bad news! If there's no bad news, then that's good news! Isn't it?"
"Ah."
Su Lingyue responded sullenly and lay on the soft mattress. Regret and longing came over her at the same time, and her tears still flowed like a raging flood, unable to stop.
*
"Yue'er."
The weak murmur reached the ears of Doctor Lu and Yan Qing.
The two were startled and hurried to get up to check.
Doctor Lu stood up so fast that he almost lost his balance. Fortunately, Yan Qing raised his hand to help him.
"Prince! You're awake!" Yan Qing sat down beside the bed, almost crying with excitement.
"Let me take your pulse first."
Doctor Lu pulled Yan Qing away, sat down beside the bed, and took Xiao Yu's pulse.
"How is the prince?" Yan Qing stared at his hand with anticipation, his eyes wide open.
Doctor Lu looked at Xiao Yu's eyes, which were still not fully focused. His heavy expression changed, and he stroked his beard cheerfully and said, "It's the same as before, except that there's a little too much blood, and he's a little weak. He'll be fine after taking two doses of medicine and resting for a while."
The patient's mentality is also important for recovery from the disease.
Xiao Yu's pulse condition was actually not good at all, and it was no different from being on the verge of death, but Doctor Lu could not say so.
Many patients, when they are unaware of their condition, are optimistic and can actually live longer.
"Really! That would be great!"
Yan Qing walked past Doctor Lu and came to Xiao Yu. He lay on the edge of the bed and asked Xiao Yu with a joyful look on his face: "Your Highness, are you hungry? Are you thirsty? Do you need to go to the toilet?"
"Yue'er... Yue'er..."
Xiao Yu stared at the ceiling of the tent with unfocused eyes, reciting weakly, as if he didn't hear what Yan Qing and Doctor Lu said.
Listening to Xiao Yu's mumbling, with no intention of answering him, Yan Qing looked at Doctor Lu blankly.
Uncle Lu just said that the prince was fine, but now he doesn't look like he is fine at all.
Doctor Lu's eyes darkened.
The current situation is very bad. It looks like the person has lost his soul.
This means that the patient is only holding on with one breath, and once this breath dissipates, he will die.
"Go quickly and call the princess over." Doctor Lu ordered Yan Qing urgently.
Although Yan Qing didn't understand what was going on, he knew that Doctor Lu would never harm the prince.
He turned around and ran towards the east wing.
*
Caidie was very good at fanning herself, neither fast nor slow. Su Lingyue's back hurt less and she felt drowsy.
Just as I was about to fall asleep, there was a hurried knock on the door.
"Princess! Princess! The prince has woken up and wants to see you! Open the door!"
The knock on the door was very strong and loud. When Su Lingyue heard that Xiao Yu woke up, she immediately lost all sleepiness.
Caiyi opened the door of the east wing without waiting for Su Lingyue's instructions.
Su Lingyue's heart was pounding, and she asked anxiously, "Yan Qing, is the prince awake? Is this true?"
"Well, the prince just woke up and wants to see you!"
As he said that, he was about to go in.
Caiyi stopped him, "You can't go in. The princess is injured in her back and has no clothes on."
Hearing Xiao Yu wake up, Su Lingyue no longer cared about anything else and ordered Caidie: "Quick! Find me a dress to change into!"
"Oh." Caidie responded and immediately got up to look for it.
"Find something thicker." Su Lingyue added to Caidie's back as she walked out.
Caidie soon came in with clothes.
The two sisters quickly helped Su Lingyue put on her inner and outer clothes.
Yan Qing was outside, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and asked, "The princess can walk, do you want me to carry her?"
When he asked this question, Caiyi just came out from behind the screen carrying Su Lingyue on her back.
Su Lingyue's eyes were filled with tears of excitement.
"Let's go!" she urged Yan Qing.
Pushing open the door of the bedroom that she had not stepped into for two days, Su Lingyue heard Xiao Yu's voice as soon as she entered the room.
"Yue'er."
"I'm here." Tears streamed down Su Lingyue's cheeks as she gently replied to Xiao Yu, "Your Highness, I'm here."
Caiyi walked through the screen and put Su Lingyue beside the bed, and Su Lingyue sat down.
There were several silver needles stuck in Xiao Yu's arm.
"Yue'er."
Xiao Yu whispered softly.
"Your Highness, I'm here with you." Su Lingyue moved her body and moved closer to Xiao Yu to look at him.
However, when she heard Xiao Yu's murmurs again and saw him staring blankly at the ceiling of the tent, murmuring her name over and over again, she froze completely.
She was right in front of Xiao Yu. Although Xiao Yu had his eyes open, he acted as if he didn't see her and continued to murmur her name.
"What's going on?" Su Lingyue turned to look at Doctor Lu.
Doctor Lu said in a deep voice, "His condition is very poor, he's only holding on with one breath. That breath must be you. If we can wake him up now, maybe he can be saved."
After hearing what Doctor Lu said, Su Lingyue's boiling blood instantly cooled down and her body seemed to be frozen.
"What if I can't wake him up?"
"That's what happened in the past two days."
Doctor Lu's words were like a sharp knife, cutting her heart again and again.
*
"Yue'er."
Hearing Xiao Yu's murmurs again, Su Lingyue's lips trembled.
"Your Majesty, I'm here."
She held Xiao Yu's hand and placed it on her cheek, hoping that her body temperature would bring Xiao Yu back.
"Xiao Yu, you said you would stay with me until old age. You can't go back on your word."
Warm tears blurred his vision and flowed into Xiao Yu's palm.
"What will you do if you leave me alone? The prince and my father are still alive. I can't fight them on my own."
"I really can't hold on without you, please don't leave me."
Looking at Xiao Yu, whose eyes were still unfocused, Su Lingyue's heart ached more with every word Xiao Yu whispered.
Xiao Yu was in so much pain, but when he lost consciousness, all he could think about was her.
Su Lingyue looked at Xiao Yu's pale face, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and her eyes gradually became firm.
"Xiao Yu, if you leave, I will be buried with you."
