My emperor, long live!

When we left Zuihua Pavilion, the sky had become dark, and there were actually pedestrians on the surrounding streets who were hurriedly preparing to go home with vegetables and fish in their hands. It looked very lively, but it made Pei Mo, a lonely family, look a little lonely.

"Candied haws! The last four skewers are cheap!"

At the candied haws stall next to her, the voice of the peddler became a little hoarse after a day of shouting, but his eyes were full of warm smiles when he looked at the woman beside her who was packing up the stall and her slightly swollen belly .

Once upon a time, she also fantasized that she and Qin Ran could one day stay away from the court, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to build a house, open a small medical clinic, have a child, and live a leisurely life away from court disputes.

But in the end, I realized that it was nothing but falsehood...

Seemingly aware of Pei Mo's gaze, the peddler turned around and saw Pei Mo was taken aback for a moment, then he smiled honestly and said, "The customer wants to buy candied haws?"

Thinking that Qin Ran and Qin Ze seem to like this food very much, Pei Mo also nodded and said, "Let me wrap up the remaining few pieces!" Then, he took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and put it in the small bag. stall.

Hearing that Pei Mo was going to buy all the remaining ones, the peddler was overjoyed and hurriedly wrapped his wife in paper and handed it to Pei Mo. Seeing Pei Mo's figure.

On the way back to the palace, it suddenly rained heavily for some reason, and the raindrops fell on the ground, but after a while, there were puddles and puddles on the ground. People on the road ran quickly to avoid the rain, but for a while, the empty streets Even those who ran away disappeared.

Pei Mo frowned slightly. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, he returned to the prime minister's mansion not far from the main street of the imperial city with light kung fu.

Although Pei Mo lived in the palace all year round and rarely went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Prime Minister's Mansion was cleaned regularly, and there were several maids.

Pei Mo originally wanted to rest here for the night, and then go to the palace tomorrow morning, but just stepped into the prime minister's mansion, a woman in palace attire who was full of anxiety and completely wet by the rain came out to meet her.

Pei Mo was taken aback when he saw the man's appearance, and then suddenly felt bad, "Jinqiu, why are you here when you're not in the palace to take care of the princess?"

Seeing Pei Mo, Jin Qiu didn't even bother to salute, and looked at Pei Mo anxiously and said: "Miss Pei is not good! Miss has been talking nonsense inarticulately since she got a fever in the afternoon, and her forehead and body are hot. From afternoon to night, the imperial doctor in the palace tried everything but still couldn't let her fever go down, the imperial doctor said...the imperial doctor said..."

Pei Mo's gaze suddenly became extremely fierce, and before Jin Qiu could finish his sentence, he directly performed lightness kung fu, and after a few dodges, his figure disappeared into the boundless twilight.

Because of the sudden high fever, Qin Ran was not able to move into the Zhongning Palace in the future, but because of the incident that happened early today, everyone in the palace knew that Qin Ran was now under the protection of Prime Minister Pei and became the adopted daughter of the noble monarch, so they must not dare Slight snub.

When Pei Mo stepped into the Jingping Garden, he saw three or four imperial physicians and a few maids newly sent by noble lords to serve him.

On the bed lay that petite figure, breathing rapidly and blushing, Pei Mo's heart tightened, and he stepped forward to sit on the bed, stroking Qin Ran's forehead with his hand, the temperature seemed to be able to warm her His hands were like burns, and they were astonishingly hot.

Pei Mo reached out to touch Qin Ran's wrist and found that her pulse was abnormally disordered, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Seemingly aware of Pei Mo's complexion, Doctor Zhang of the Imperial Hospital hurriedly stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Pei, the fifth princess's burning is really weird. We poured medicine and asked the maid to wipe her body, but the princess is still missing." There are signs of the fever going away, and if the fever continues like this, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's..."

Pei Mo turned his head and looked directly at Imperial Physician Zhang, his eyes were so cold that he could almost freeze him, "I'm afraid it's something!"

Physician Zhang trembled, and knelt on the ground quickly, as if using all his strength in one sentence, "If the fever cannot be subsided tonight, the fifth princess may not be able to survive tonight!"

Pei Mo looked down at the astonishingly hot Qin Ran in his arms, and his eyes gradually filled with anger that was so thick that it was about to freeze.

Without saying a word, Pei Mo picked up the woman on the bed and walked out the door.

Seeing Pei Mo's actions, Imperial Physician Zhang said in a panic, "Master Pei, what are you..."

Pei Mo stared straight at Imperial Physician Zhang and said in a deep voice, "As long as we can reduce her fever, she will be fine?"

Doctor Zhang was swept away by Pei Mo's eyes, and he felt a chill down his spine, but as a doctor, there are some things that he has to mention, so he lowered his head and whispered: "In theory, that's true, but we also use ice cubes." We took the medicine and took it for her, we have used all the methods that can be used! Unless it is snowing heavily at this time, and the fifth princess is put in a low temperature environment, maybe..."

Pei Mo interrupted him, and said in a low tone, "Since the temperature can't be changed, I'll take her to a place with a lower temperature."

After saying a word, Pei Mo didn't say any more, picked up Qin Ran and strode out of the house.

"Where the temperature is low?" Doctor Zhang repeated what Pei Mo said, as if thinking of something, his face instantly changed color.

The surrounding imperial physicians obviously also thought of something, and one of them exclaimed: "Couldn't Pei Xiang want to take the princess to the icehouse? The temperature is so low that a strong man in his prime can't stand it for a while and wants to get out. Pei Xiang is here to save the princess. The princess is afraid that she will die!"

Just as the imperial physician expected, Pei Mo did carry Qin Ran all the way to the ice cellar built under the palace.

Pushing open the heavy stone door of the ice cellar, a bone-piercing coolness rushes towards you. Even though it is already March in spring, you still feel cold all over your body when standing outside the ice cellar.

But Pei Mo didn't seem to notice it. He tightened his grip on the woman in his arms, closed the stone door behind him, and stepped into the ice cellar.

The chill around seemed to make Qin Ran a little more comfortable, and his frowning brows relaxed a little.

Because of the high fever before, Qin Ran's clothes were almost completely wet with sweat, but now it suddenly turned cold, and the sweat-wet clothes gradually froze and started to harden. clothes.

Pei Mo sighed softly, and gently took off her clothes one by one with his eyes. Qin Ran's rosy slender body gradually appeared in Pei Mo's eyes little by little.

"Pei Mo..." Qin Ran's voice hoarse due to high fever slowly sounded from the empty ice cellar.

Although he knew that she was just dreaming in a coma, Pei Mo hooked the corners of his lips and replied, "I'm here."

While talking, Pei Mo hugged the soft and hot body in his arms again.

Qin Ran twisted her body and burrowed into Pei Mo's arms again, "Pei Mo..."

The surrounding air was so cold that Pei Mo's face gradually turned pale, but she looked at the woman in her arms with extreme tenderness and affection, "Well, I'm here."

As if hearing Pei Mo's whisper in a daze, Qin Ran suddenly opened his eyes in confusion.

When his line of sight touched Pei Mo, Qin Ran's eyes were instantly wet with tears. The innocent eyes in the past seemed to be stained with the sadness after seeing through the vicissitudes of life. A pair of slender hands touched Pei Mo's cheeks, with Bone-piercing pain.

"Pei Mo, I thought I would never see you again."

Pei Mo gently caressed Qin Ran's heart, "It's just a fever, don't talk nonsense, just sleep well and you'll be fine."

Qin Ran acted as if he had never heard of it, and kept drawing on Pei Mo's cheeks with his hands, his eyes were full of nostalgia that was almost sad, and his voice was mournful and hoarse, "I used the power you left behind to seize the throne, torture Chen Yi in public, and punish him. He's full of people! He cut off the heads of Qin Rong and Chen Yi and hung them at the city gate for a whole month, why, why are you still refusing to come back?"

Pei Mo's eyes that were originally dyed with tenderness froze instantly, and the surrounding cold seemed to penetrate through her bones and blood instantly, making her stiff all over.

Qin Ran seemed not aware of it, and stared into Pei Mo's eyes with nostalgia, "After killing Chen Yi, I have obtained the supreme power, and none of the officials dared to defy me."

Speaking of this, Qin Ran's eyes were stained with deep resentment,

"However, there is no one around me like you. When I am complacent, you will unceremoniously pour cold water on me. When I am irritable, listen to me nagging my dissatisfaction with the ministers. When I am sad, you will caress me." Make up your mind, coax me gently like comforting a child."

"Pei Mo, I have been giving you an empty position, sitting on the throne every day waiting for you, I only hope that one day it will be the same as usual, you step into the hall, look at me with a smile on your face, and call me Your Majesty... .”

Speaking of this, Qin Ran's eyes instantly became hollow and lifeless, and his tone was full of bewilderment and helplessness, "But, I waited day after day, and the phase was empty day after day, why did you Just not showing up?"

"I, I know I broke your heart..."

"On weekdays, when I'm sad, you're the first to find me... Then, can I come to you this time?"

"I specifically found the same day after you left for a year, sat on the throne you sat on when you left, and drank the medicine in one gulp. You know that I am usually the most afraid of suffering, but I drank the medicine in one gulp It's..."

"Pei Mo, it's the first time I've worked so hard to find you, come back, okay, okay..."
