Rebirth of marriage

Xie Jiu's calmness was completely broken by these words.

She buried her face in his hands and choked, "I'm sorry, if I hadn't left the palace, you wouldn't have come here to find me. I brought you this disaster."

She regretted so much that she wanted to play tricks with him. If anything happened to him, she would not let her go.

But when he woke up after being seriously injured, he still thought about her feet.

"Nonsense, it has nothing to do with you." Gu Xiao raised his hand to wipe her face, "I am very glad that I came here last night and saved them."

"Did the assassin assassinate them?" Xie Jiu raised her face from his palm, with tears still hanging on her eyelashes. She wanted to see if he said this to comfort her.

Gu Xiao took a breath, "They want to arrest the boss to blackmail me, so it has nothing to do with you."

When he left Lin's house, he wanted to visit the two elderly people, and didn't want to find out that an assassin had sneaked into their house. At that moment, he was really glad that he came to thank them for drinking last night.

Otherwise he wouldn't have gone to see them early in the morning.

Xie Jiu blinked her eyes and tears fell. In a hurry, she chewed the word "blackmail" and then thought about the first time she sent something to the old censor. On the way back, she met Gu Xiao, who had a relationship with them. relationship, and they are very important to Gu Xiao.

But Xie Jiu had no idea what the specific relationship was. She had never paid attention to those two people in her previous life, and she had never seen Gu Xiao have any contact with them.

But if they are very important people to Gu Xiao, why do they live in such poverty? Gu Xiao is not a stingy person.

But you can put all these unreasonable things aside for a while, because Xie Jiu saw Gu Xiao licking his chapped lips.

She got up to get him some water.

Mo Qi came in with water. He handed the water to Xie Jiu's hand, "Miss Xie, I'm sorry to bother you."

Xie took the wine, but when he saw that there was no spoon, he called Mo Qi to bring him a spoon. He scooped up a spoonful of water, put it to his lips and blew it gently. When it was no longer hot, he put it to Gu Xiao's mouth.

Gu Xiao felt a little uncomfortable. It had been more than ten years since he had been fed water with a spoon like this. He took a sip and said, "I will do it myself."

He wanted to get up and drink the tea cup directly. This was how he had been injured in the past.

"Lie down." Xie Jiu said with a serious face, "Your wound has just been sutured, and it will easily open when you stand up."

After saying that, he blew another spoonful of cold water and handed it to Gu Xiao's mouth.

She used to be delicate and frail in front of him. For the first time with such a serious face, Gu Xiao felt a little cute, like a child pretending to be an adult in front of him.

However, he was a man, and there was no need to make the woman unhappy because of such a trivial matter, so he followed her wishes and accepted them one by one.

"They didn't succeed this time, will they attack the boss and the others next time?" After feeding him water, Xie Jiu gently wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and then returned to the previous topic.

"No." Gu Xiao raised a thin smile on his lips, "I have killed anyone who knew about our relationship."

"That's good." Seeing that he looked a little tired, Xie Jiu tucked him in, "You can sleep a little longer. The more you rest, the faster your injury will heal."

She didn't know how to express her distress, she just hoped that he would recover soon.

"Is your foot feeling better?" he asked again.

Xie Jiu was about to speak.

The old censor and his wife came in, and the old lady held Gu Xiao's hand, "Are you awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

It turned out that they were worried about Gu Xiao and did not go home, but rested in the guest room of Lin Shu's house.

Hearing that Gu Xiao was awake, he got up and came over.

"I'm fine. I'll be fine in a few days." Gu Xiao smiled.

The old lady patted his hand gently, "We can't do this next time. It's not a loss if I live to this age and lose my life, but if something happens to you, how will I survive?"

Her voice turned into a cry and tears fell.

The old censor hurriedly said, "Okay, you said this to make him feel uncomfortable. As long as everything is fine, the injured need a good rest. Let's go back first. You have a good rest. We will come back tomorrow."

"Yes." Gu Xiao responded and ordered outside the door, "Mo Li, protect me."

"Then you're fine." The old lady reluctantly gave up, looked at Xie Jiu again, and then followed the old censor.

The room was quiet again. Xie Jiu saw that Gu Xiao had been looking at him and knew that he was still thinking about his feet. He sighed secretly and raised his feet to look at him, "It's no big deal."

"It's serious. I'll give you a massage when you feel better tomorrow." He felt a little distressed and always felt that he was responsible for her foot injury. "You should also lie down and rest early."

"Okay." Xie Jiu followed him, climbed to his side, and closed his eyes next to him.

After worrying for a day, my mind was very tired, but I was afraid that Gu Xiao would have a high fever at night and wouldn't be able to sleep well, so I kept thinking about my worries.

She had many thoughts in her mind, including her own self-blame and guilt, Gu Xiao's kindness to her, and the unusual attitude of the old censor and others towards Gu Xiao.

When it was midnight, she probed Gu Xiao's forehead. It was hot and she called Lin Shu.

Lin Shu handed her a pill, "The side effects of the poison are not a big problem. Give him a pill and it will bring down the fever after a while."

Xie Jiu put the medicine into his mouth and gave him water as promised. Gu Xiao was drowsy the whole time.

After waiting for another hour, his fever had subsided.

Xie Jiu's head was too heavy to lift, so he fell asleep next to him.

She fell into some confusing dreams. In the dream, Gu Xiao was being chased, the sword fell on him, and he was covered in blood. She also dreamed that blood suddenly overflowed from his mouth while he was eating and drinking water.

In the dream, he was drunk on a boat in the south of the Yangtze River. He was kneeling outside the royal study to break off his engagement with Nihuang. He was locked in a dark dungeon. He came to the capital from Yuyouguan with three thousand soldiers. , his head was beheaded, and thousands of troops trampled his body into pulp...

Xie Jiu opened his eyes suddenly.

It was getting slightly brighter and Gu Xiao was still asleep. Xie Jiu probed his forehead and found it was ice cold.

Just like the head she kissed in her dream, which had no warmth, she was so frightened that her breath suffocated and she shouted almost breaking her voice, "Lin Shu, come here."

The first one to arrive was Mo Qi, who was guarding the door, "What's wrong?"

The voice that sounded together with his was Gu Xiao's, "What's wrong with you?"

He was awakened by the shout of thanking him for drinking.

Xie Jiu saw him opening his eyes with worry. She took a deep breath and said he was fine.

Gu Xiao noticed that her face was flushed and raised his hand to touch her face, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? You seem to have a fever."

He touched his forehead again uncertainly.

At this time, Lin Shu had already come in, touched her forehead, and said with some helplessness, "It is indeed a high fever."

It wasn't that Gu Xiao lost his temperature, but that his own temperature was too high. Knowing that something had happened, Xie Jiu was still afraid. Most of those dreams happened in his previous life.

She couldn't calm down for a long time.

Lin Shu asked her to continue lying down, and she took Mo Qi to prepare medicine for the two patients.

Gu Xiao pulled her closer to him, "But are you having a nightmare?"
