Chapter 226: Fear of Cold but Not Heat
Hearing the creaky sounds of someone pushing the door open, Yun Jingman thought it was Chu'er coming back with the heater.
"Chu'er, hurry up, hurry up, I'm still so cold." Yun Jingman said with chattering teeth. If someone didn't know her condition, they would think she was in the ice and snow.
The person's footsteps suddenly stopped. Yun Jingman couldn't hear any sound, so she inquired again, "Chu'er, hurry up, I'm really cold..." In the icy and snowy weather, she felt freezing cold. She didn't feel anything except the cold.
The sound of footsteps began again, and Yun Jingman, with trembling teeth, looked forward to Chuer bringing her the heater. But when she saw the tall and straight bright yellow figure, she was stunned...
Her eyes widened as she glanced at the person who came. Apart from the sudden shock, she had no other expression.
The tall and bright yellow figure looked at Yun Jingman evilly, his blue eyes were empty and emotionless without a trace of emotion. He finally couldn't help but come to Shengling Palace to see her, couldn't help but come...
As soon as I entered the bedroom, I felt a burst of stuffiness and the charcoal fire was burning fiercely. The heat was so intense that I would sweat if I stayed there for a moment longer.
However, he glanced at the woman on the bed, who was wrapped in a thick quilt, with only her head exposed. Upon closer inspection, he could see her teeth trembling. Her lips were pale, and her face was as pale as paper.
She looked sick. He remembered that she just caught a cold and was fine. Why was she...
The two looked into each other's eyes, sparks flew. Yun Jingman suppressed her initial shock, and was deeply afraid of Baili Haoxuan. She was afraid that he would do something that scared her again...
Baili Haoxuan felt pity for her sick face, and when he saw her trembling with fear, his heart softened. Although she had done many unforgivable things, now was not the time to care about her mistakes. He had to wait until she got better before dealing with her!
Baili Haoxuan shook his head and sighed, then slowly walked over to the bed, lifted the hem of his dragon robe, sat down gracefully on the edge of the dragon bed, and glanced at her.
As soon as Baili Haoxuan sat down, Yun Jingman became alert and slowly moved closer to the bed without making a sound...
Everything that happened to Yun Jingman was done under Baili Haoxuan's nose. Looking at her frightened appearance, he felt funny, angry, hateful, and pitiful at the same time.
Baili Haoxuan glanced at her and said with a half-smile, "Are you afraid of me?"
Yun Jingman lowered his head and looked away from Baili Haoxuan. Once some injuries were done, no matter how much time had passed, they would always leave a shadow...
Baili Haoxuan suddenly felt something strange in his heart, and his handsome eyebrows slightly frowned. He actually didn't like that she was afraid of him...
"Why are you wrapped in such a thick quilt?" He couldn't stay for long. He felt hot and unbearable all over and sweated a little, but the woman in front of him was still wrapped in so many quilts. Is she really crazy?
"Cold..." Yun Jingman didn't dare to look directly at Baili Haoxuan, his eyes were scattered around, his body was still shaking, and his voice was still timid.
"Cold?" Baili Haoxuan was puzzled. What kind of weather is this? Even in late autumn, it shouldn't be cold. Moreover, there are two large charcoal stoves burning in the bedroom, and there are various small heaters on the bed. How can it be cold?
"Yeah, it's cold..."
"Your Majesty, I have brought two more heaters..." Chu'er was happy. She found two more heaters from the storeroom and was hurriedly telling Your Majesty the good news, but before she arrived, a voice came.
However, tragically, she discovered that there was one more person in the bedroom, and that person was the emperor.
Chu Er was startled, and hurried over, put the two heaters in her hands on her back, knelt on the ground and greeted Baili Haoxuan, "Long live the emperor!"
"Well, get up. What's behind you?" Baili Haoxuan said coldly.
"Reporting to the emperor. This is a heater." Chu'er took out the two heaters behind her and spread them in front of Baili Haoxuan.
"Aren't so many heaters enough?" Baili Haoxuan glanced at them briefly and said with a cold smile.
"Your Majesty, ever since Empress Qing woke up yesterday, she has been afraid of the cold. She kept telling me that she was very cold. No matter if we closed the windows and doors, lit the charcoal stove, or rolled up several layers of quilts, she still felt very cold. So, I brought all the heaters from the warehouse..." Chu'er told Baili Haoxuan the story respectfully without hiding a word.
"Your Majesty just woke up yesterday?" Baili Haoxuan asked in a raised voice.
"Yes!" Chu'er nodded.
"The queen just woke up yesterday, why didn't anyone tell me?" Baili Haoxuan shouted coldly. Although he was busy with government affairs, there should be someone to report the woman's illness.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have been to the Council Hall, but..." Chu'er didn't dare to finish her words.
Baili Haoxuan also understood. He had indeed ordered that no one should enter. He had been thinking hard about how to repel the enemy those days, but he actually neglected...
"Where are the imperial doctors? Where did they go? Why did the queen just wake up yesterday? She has been in a coma for several days. Is it just a simple cold?" Baili Haoxuan shouted.
"Reporting to the emperor. Indeed, the imperial doctors have been treating the queen for a long time and they also said that the queen just caught a cold and it's nothing serious..." Chu'er paused and spoke carefully.
"Quack!" Baili Haoxuan cursed. They were all rubbish, unable to even cure one person.
"Chu'er, help me light the heater." Yun Jingman couldn't help but interrupt. She was really too cold. When she saw the heater, her eyes lit up because it was the heat source, the heat source she needed...
The heat that warmed her numb, indifferent, and unconscious body...
Baili Haoxuan turned around and gave her a warning look with his blue eyes. This damn woman really has no self-awareness at all. He was obviously helping her, but she actually...
Yun Jingman received that warning look and timidly lowered her head again. She looked like a young wife who had been wronged. What? She was really cold...
"Apart from being in a coma for so many days and being afraid of the cold, is there anything else?" Baili Haoxuan asked Chu'er in detail.
"The queen doesn't seem to be afraid of hot food. Whether it's the medicine or the ginger soup, they are all boiling hot. The queen just drinks it without letting it cool down."
"It's true." Baili Haoxuan frowned and glanced at Yun Jingman.
"Your Majesty, I dare not lie."
"But is there anything else?"
"Actually, there's nothing special about it..."
"Well, put down the heater and go out." Baili Haoxuan raised his hand and drove Chu'er away.
"But..." Yun Jingman said in a low voice.
"Ok?"
"But Chu'er hasn't lit the heater yet..." He ignored Baili Haoxuan's oppressive gaze and fought for his own rights.
"Yes, your majesty." Chu'er heard Yun Jingman's words and wanted to go over to light the heater.
"No need for that. Chu'er, put away all the heaters on the bed one by one, and just leave the charcoal stove." Baili Haoxuan ordered coldly.
"No, I'm really cold..." Yun Jingman looked at Baili Haoxuan and begged desperately. She thought Baili Haoxuan was going to torture her again, so she begged desperately.
Chu'er stood there in a dilemma, not knowing who to listen to.
"Chu'er, don't you even listen to what I say? Huh?" Baili Haoxuan's voice became increasingly cold, causing Chu'er to shiver.
With no other options, Chu'er had to follow Baili Haoxuan's instructions and put away the heaters on the dragon bed one by one.
As she was collecting them, she heard Yun Jingman holding her hand and begging bitterly, “Don’t collect them, don’t collect them, I’m really cold… Please, don’t…”
However, Baili Haoxuan has absolute authority, and she has no choice but to obey...
Chu'er put away all the heaters one by one and left.
Without those fiery heaters, Yun Jingman felt even colder...
