White Hedge Dream

Chapter 112 Morning Awakening

"This young gentleman, you were poisoned, but fortunately, you came in time, and now most of the poison has been eliminated."

Zhang Shilin saw that the young man seemed unable to remember what happened, so he explained to him.

The young man's face was no longer green, but was completely pale. When he heard these words, the confusion in his eyes disappeared, leaving behind shock and sadness.

It should be that he remembered what tragedy happened to him.

"Would you like to register for the official position for you?" Zhang Shilin asked.

Shangguan Yue coughed a few times and shook his head: "No need to report it to the official, it's just a small matter. I'd like to trouble Dr. Zhang to send a message to Shangguan's consort, saying that I drank too much and fell."

Shangguan's consort, Zhang Shilin looked slightly startled, but suddenly realized that this young man was the Shangguan young man.

If he hadn't happened to wake up from his dream, he might not have noticed Shangguan Xiaolang even if he bumped into the door. If he delayed for a moment, Shangguan Xiaolang wouldn't have been able to save him. Such a dangerous thing, he said, was a trivial matter.

Playboys also have unspeakable secrets.

Zhang Shilin never asked much about the affairs of a powerful family, and nodded: "Okay, after all, I still need to collect medical fees."

Shangguan Yue smiled: "Don't worry." He added, "The prince-in-law should be looking for me already."

He glanced at the sky outside, and the inky night was fading.

…

…

Zhuang Li watched as the dim dream gradually faded, and the real world was emerging.

Her steps are getting slower and slower, the road behind her is getting shorter and shorter, and the surrounding vision is being swallowed up into nothingness.

It has been delayed for too long, and too much energy has been spent, and the mind has become distracted.

If she doesn't wake up as soon as possible, she will be trapped in the sea of ​​confusion, and she doesn't know when she will be able to break free.

It would be okay if she was with Mrs. Zhuang, but now she is the young lady of Dongyang Hou Mansion.

When daybreak, her husband will find that his wife has turned into a motionless corpse beside his pillow.

Come on, come on, wake up quickly.

She didn't want to lie in a coffin.

In that case, he would not only be a fugitive being hunted, but also a demon to be hunted.

…

…

"Ali."

Zhou Jingyun called softly and looked at Zhuang Li, who was sleeping in the dim light.

He suddenly woke up and found that the people around him were still in the same position as before falling asleep. He always felt that something was wrong.

He gently reached out and touched her cheek.

She didn't react at all, unlike before when she would move her head slightly, turn over, or lean over.

She just lay quietly on her side, motionless.

this…..

Zhou Jingyun couldn't help but call softly.

Zhuang Li remained quiet and motionless.

Zhou Jingyun inexplicably thought of his aunt, Mrs. Lin's symptoms, and the impact on Lingquan Temple. He couldn't help but sit up and reached out to push Zhuang Li's shoulder.

With his push, Zhuang Li's body swayed from lying on his side to lying on his back, but he still didn't wake up.

this!

"Ah Li." Zhou Jingyun raised his voice and pressed Zhuang Li's shoulders hard. Through the thin pajamas, he found that the warmth was fading away.

Zhou Jingyun's heart skipped a beat and he held Zhuang Li's face in his hands.

"Ali—"

Zhuang Li opened his eyes suddenly.

Zhou Jingyun's voice paused and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Ali, you—"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a smile on Zhuang Li's face, holding it in his hand.

The smile ripples like water.

Zhou Jingyun's eyes were dazzled when he saw a strange yet familiar face.

There was a pair of autumn eyes on this face. Her eyes flickered on his face and she said, "Zhou Jingyun."

Zhou Jingyun was startled, let go of his hands, and fell backwards.

…

….

Zhuang Li suddenly turned over, his vision was covered with green light, no longer hazy.

Fortunately, I woke up in time. She stretched out her hand and pressed her heart, feeling the violent heartbeat. She looked around and saw that Zhou Jingyun was no longer there.

So early?

Did he notice anything wrong?

While I was thinking about it, footsteps came from outside the tent.

"Young Madam." Chunyue called, opening the bed curtain, "You're awake."

Zhuang Li smiled at her and nodded, but sat up without getting out of bed.

"It was probably too hot last night and I sweated a lot. Please help me get a set of clothes and socks to change into." She said, and asked for a set with hibiscus lace.

Because the sleeves of the dress were tightened to cover her exposed skin above her wrists.

Last night, I was in danger in a dream, which caused my whole body to turn blue and red. It would take at least two or three days to recover.

You can't cover it up by boiling it with tea every time.

This time a cup of tea was not hot enough.

Chunyue went to get her clothes without much thought.

Zhuang Li changed his position on the bed and Chunyue handed it over with tea in his hand.

As the morning light grew brighter, Zhuang Li took a sip of tea and looked inside and outside: "Where is the prince?"

Chunyue said: "Your Majesty went to practice sword practice."

While the two were talking, there was the sound of footsteps in the courtyard, mixed with the greetings of the maids, "Your Majesty."

Zhuang Li looked through the window and saw Zhou Jingyun walking in with a sword in hand. Although he was wearing thin clothes, he was sweating all over his body and head.

Looking at Zhuang Li, Zhou Jingyun paused: "Wake up."

Zhuang Li nodded with a smile and urged him: "Go and wash up quickly."

Zhou Jingyun glanced at her, nodded, and went to the clean room without saying another word.

By the time he came out after washing and changing clothes, breakfast had been laid out.

"Your Majesty, come to dinner." Zhuang Li greeted him while sitting.

Zhou Jingyun came over, Chunyue waited for the maid to put the bowls and chopsticks for the two of them, and then left.

The room fell silent.

It shouldn't be so quiet indoors.

Zhuang Li raised his head: "Last night..."

At the same time, Zhou Jingyun also raised his head: "Last night..."

The two spoke at the same time, both were startled, and looked at each other.

Zhuang Li smiled and looked at Zhou Jingyun: "Is this called telepathy?"

Zhou Jingyun smiled, did not answer or deny, and continued what he said before: "Did you sleep well last night?"

Logically speaking, this was a very common greeting between them, but Zhuang Li heard the inquiry in Zhou Jingyun's tone.

Last night, he must have discovered something unusual about her, right?

"It's not good." Zhuang Li said after careful consideration and looked at Zhou Jingyun, "It seems that I had a lot of dreams and couldn't sleep well."

Zhou Jingyun said oh, but did not ask any more questions, lowered his head and took a bite of food.

"Your Majesty, did you sleep well last night?" Zhuang Li also asked himself the previous question and looked at Zhou Jingyun, "I actually didn't sleep well. Did I disturb you last night?"

Zhou Jingyun raised his head and said: "You cried a few times in your dream last night, but you fell asleep quickly. On the contrary, I woke up early in the morning and was worried about waking you up..."

His voice slipped slowly when it reached this point.

"….Fortunately not."

No, Zhuang Li sighed: "That's good." He explained to him, "I can't remember what I dreamed about. I just felt very tired, so I fell asleep deeper." He smiled again, "Don't scare you when I fall asleep from now on."

Zhou Jingyun smiled and shook his head: "No." After saying this, he lowered his head and ate the food in the bowl. He stood up and said, "I'm going to the Yamen first." After a pause, he seemed to explain, "Morning Go to the Board of Supervisors at 1 o'clock and ask about the progress of the Lingquan Temple incident."

Zhuang Li warned: "Don't ask too deliberately to avoid arousing suspicion."

Zhou Jingyun nodded: "I know, don't worry." After saying that, he glanced at Zhuang Li and said, "Eat slowly and don't get up to see me off."

Zhuang Li responded and watched Zhou Jingyun walk out.

The room became quiet.

Zhuang Li looked at the food on the table and took a bite slowly.

She didn't know whether it was the influence of the weird dream last night or whether Meng Xing's rescue had damaged her vitality, but she always felt that Zhou Jingyun was different from before.

The way he looked at her seemed a little more unfamiliar.

Zhuang Li reached out and gently stroked his cheek.
