Wait a minute, don't come in.

Jiang Ling closed her eyes in pain and tried hard to speak, but couldn't even utter a single word.The maids knocked lightly on the door, and called out for the third time: "My lord? Are you in, my lord?" Then the door creaked and was pushed open.

In just thirteen steps, from the door to Jiang Ling's bed, it was as long as a century.

The maids saw Jiang Ling lying on the bed with his back to them, covered with a thin quilt, his long black hair scattered on his shoulders, covering his pale cheeks and neck.The maids looked at each other, and they all became a little surprised: What's wrong, my lord?

"My lord." A maid called softly.

No echo.

They looked at each other again, and took a step forward, trying to wake her up: "Little master, it's getting late, if you don't get up, it will be too late."

Just before a maid's fingertip touched Jiang Ling, a slightly hoarse voice suddenly came: "What's the matter?" There was deep fatigue in the voice, and there was a tremor that could barely be heard.The maids looked at each other, took half a step back, blessed the body and said: "Go back to my lord, the hot water has been prepared, please take a bath and change clothes, my lord." The voices were neat.

"I see." Jiang Ling's voice was still a little hoarse, "Perhaps he caught the wind and cold just now, and he just took a nap, and his body is a little weak. You carry the things into the room, and I will take a bath in the room. Move lightly." Slow down." If it can be delayed for a moment, it is a moment.

All the maids responded yes, without doubting him, and retreated one after another. After a while, someone carried the bathtub, heating utensils and firewood to the house.In the past, when Jiang Ling was too lazy to go out, she would occasionally let people carry things into the house to take a bath, so this behavior was not out of the ordinary.

Jiang Ling was still lying motionless on the bed, his whole body was stiff, as if some force was tearing his body.

Now she can completely feel every trace of energy flowing in her body, spreading from the heart to all parts of the body, along with the slightly beating pulse, spreading the feeling of coldness and stiffness to every part of the body.Jiang Ling looked down at herself, her nails were covered with a thin layer of frost, and even when she breathed, there would be a hazy layer of mist, like the white mist formed when breathing in winter.

Except for the barely usable vocal cords, her whole body was turned into an ice sculpture.

However, because her back was facing the maids, these slight changes were not noticed by the maids for the time being.

The commotion outside gradually became louder. Two maids were adding water to the bathtub, one maid was heating the bottom, and the other maid came to Jiang Ling's bed, bowed her knees slightly and said, "My lord, please get up and take a bath." Etiquette is meticulous and there is no mistake.

Very, very good.

Jiang Ling closed his eyes, and a slight energy fluctuation floated from his fingertips, and slowly lifted the quilt on his body.Although she couldn't move, she could temporarily lose the influence of gravity on things around her, including Jiang Ling herself, through supernatural powers.When the maids knocked on the door just now, she relied on this ability to move step by step from the front of the bed to the bed and cover herself with the quilt.

After the maid saluted, she moved her eyes slightly upwards, and she was about to see her.

Jiang Ling said abruptly, "Don't help me." Then she staggered off the bed and walked outside.It is better to say that it is floating than to say that it is walking.The maid's outstretched hand froze in mid-air, she stood up, her eyes just fell on Jiang Ling's side face, and she didn't see the slightest gap between Jiang Ling's feet and the ground.

Jiang Ling looked calm on the surface, but cold sweat had already soaked his underwear.

She had to carefully manipulate every trace of her abilities to make herself appear to be walking like a normal person, instead of floating in the air like weightless in space.This kind of control over abilities can be said to have reached an extremely strict level.

One step, two steps, three steps.

Walking to the door step by step, leaning against the door, a thin layer of frost formed immediately where the door touched her body.

Jiang Ling suddenly changed his face, and said to the two maids in the outer room: "I'm afraid I really caught the wind and cold, you can heat the water a little more, and send someone to tell the emperor that I just caught the wind and cold, and I'm afraid I will be sick if I get sick." Your Majesty, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."

The two maids outside answered yes, and then one of them walked outside the door and asked the servant to inform the emperor.

The temperature in the room slowly began to rise, and the steaming water vapor filled the room, and even the maid's face was somewhat blurred.Jiang Ling closed her eyes and let out a long breath of relief. The thin layer of frost on the threshold melted into crystal water drops and slid down along the door.

The maid in the inner room also took two steps forward and said: "Your servant will add water to the young master."

Jiang Ling nodded slightly, signaling them to continue.

Not long after, the maid outside who sent the message also came back, adding water and firewood to Jiang Ling together with the other two.The white mist in the room gradually became thicker, and even the maids themselves were sweating a little.After a while, a maid tried the temperature of the water and said to Jiang Ling: "Please take a bath, my lord. The water can't be hot anymore. If it gets hotter, it will burn my lord."

Jiang Ling nodded slowly, and moved her fingers a little.

Still stiff, but no longer the same as before, unable to even move.

The maids were standing beside the tub with copper basins, towels and combs.One of the maids wanted to undress her, but Jiang Ling stopped her first: "No need to wait, I can do it myself." She didn't dare to let the maids touch her body, just now when she touched the door, The piece of wood was frosted immediately; if it touched someone, would it be okay?

Jiang Ling is now like a frozen person, relying on the buoyancy in the air to get rid of the influence of gravity, and slowly walk towards the bathtub.

Both the inner room and the outer room were filled with white mist, even before Jiang Ling's eyes, there was also white mist, which merged with the mist produced by her breathing, making it completely indistinguishable.The closer you are to the bathtub, the more you can feel the steaming heat wave. The maids couldn't take it anymore, and thin beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.

But Jiang Ling didn't even show a trace of heat, let alone sweating.

She guessed that the ability this time should be severe cold, or directly create frost.

Jiang Ling took a deep breath, walked to the edge of the tub, raised her hand with difficulty, and was about to untie her belt.

Now Jiang Ling's fingers are stiff, his cheeks are stiff, and even his movements are stiff.But it takes all the strength of the whole body to complete a little bit of this stiff movement.In the eyes of the maids, it is naturally another scene.

"My lord." A maid said, "Isn't my lord exhausted? I'd better wait for the slaves."

Jiang Ling shook her head and said, "No need, I'm just upset." Normally, when she was upset, she would push away the maids' service, and she had to do everything by herself.The maids only thought that Jiang Ling was upset, and stepped back a little.

Although Jiang Ling usually has no temper, it would be quite scary if he really got angry.

Jiang Ling closed his eyes, and suddenly muttered to himself, "I don't know when the matter will be settled."

While complaining in a low voice, he slowly untied his belt.

Q: When will my movements slow down?

A: Naturally, I am thinking about things, especially when I am thinking ecstatically.

Jiang Ling is now pretending to be in a state of "thinking about things and thinking about things", with an irritable and depressed look on his face, talking to himself from time to time, and letting himself fall into a state of contemplation from time to time.The maids looked at each other in blank dismay, all thinking about what happened today, not only made the little master mad, but even taking a bath, they were lost in thought.

Finally, Jiang Ling untied his belt with great difficulty, pulled it hard, and the shirt slipped off.

perfect.

She then went on to untie the second and third pieces...the movements were much easier than before.Because of standing next to the hot water, the feeling of being frozen all over the body was gradually replaced by a tingling pain of alternating hot and cold, like a person who was frozen in the snow suddenly touched the hot water and was about to die. It's not that Jiang Ling's body is stronger than normal people, I'm afraid he can't stand it now.

But fortunately, her body has been strengthened, not only can she go through it smoothly, but she can also use the force of anti-gravity to lift her legs (actually let her legs float), walk slowly into the bathtub, and then soak her whole body go in.

At the moment when the cold and heat alternated, Jiang Ling was so painful that he almost screamed, and the cold sweat fell down.

But her body was slowly returning to its original state little by little.

"My lord, is this water hot?" A maid asked, and tested the water temperature herself.room temperature.

"Hey..." The maid looked at her companion suspiciously.She clearly remembered that the temperature of the water was still slightly hot just now.

Maybe I remembered it wrong, or maybe the hot water cooled down quickly this day.

The maid patted her head, laughed at herself secretly, and began to add hot water to Jiang Ling again.Jiang Ling subconsciously sank her shoulders, soaking her whole body in hot water to avoid physical contact with the maids.She thought for a while, and then said, "Scatter some flower petals for me."

A layer of beautiful petals soon floated on the surface of the water, completely covering Jiang Ling's body under the water.In this way, when the maids are adding water, she can completely avoid the maids' touch, and she will not attract the attention of the maids because of too much movement.

After adding three or four pots of hot water, a eunuch's shrill voice suddenly sounded outside: "Long Live Lord heard that the young master has contracted a cold, so he specially sent an imperial doctor to see the young master." Then he knocked lightly on the door.

Jiang Ling gave a maid a wink, and the maid walked to the door, raised her voice slightly and said, "Please wait outside for a while, the young master is taking a bath, so no outsiders are allowed."

A shrill "ah" sounded from outside, and then said: "The imperial doctor, please, sit down for a while before seeing the young master."

When the footsteps gradually faded away, Jiang Ling breathed a sigh of relief, leaned against the edge of the tub, and closed his eyes.

Her body can already move.

I slightly raised my hand to flick the water, pushed some petals away, and found that the thin layer of frost on the nails had all receded.

But Jiang Ling didn't know whether his body temperature was different from those of the maids around him, so he soaked in the tub for a full quarter of an hour before getting up.During this period, the maids kept adding water to it, and they were still discussing strangely, the hot water was cooling down so fast today, could it be because of insufficient firewood?

Jiang Ling closed her eyes tightly without saying a word.

After bathing and changing, Jiang Ling let them wipe his body clean, and helped him to go to the bed to rest.

His whole body was reddish from the hot water, but his body temperature was still slightly cool.When the maids helped her up, they were still worried that she would have a high fever, but after touching Jiang Ling's body, they all felt relieved, and went outside to invite the imperial physician in to diagnose Jiang Ling's pulse.

Jiang Ling leaned on the soft pillow, stretched out her hand, and stared at the imperial physician without blinking, for fear that he might diagnose something for herself.

The imperial doctor examined carefully for a while, looked at Jiang Ling, and then at the maids, and said with some uncertainty: "My lord should be tired recently, and my body is a little weak, so I showed symptoms of wind and cold. But my lord The Lord's body seems to be very good at present, and there is no sign of contracting a cold. The servant will prescribe two medicines for the young Lord, and he will take care of it for two days, that's all."

As an imperial physician, the first skill to learn is to talk about symptoms that are neither painful nor itchy.

Jiang Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, doctor."

The imperial physician also heaved a sigh of relief, and was very grateful for Jiang Ling's cooperation, so he prescribed a non-painful prescription, and asked the maids to take two doses of the medicine, and left in a hurry with the medicine box, fearing that Jiang Ling would come back again. After asking a few questions, he couldn't talk nonsense.

Jiang Ling couldn't help laughing, and completely relaxed, took the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician, and lay down under the blanket for a while.Halfway through her sleep, she suddenly felt someone caressing her forehead.

He opened his eyes and looked, but was stunned.

"emperor?"
