Chapter 1872 The Sickly Young Master's Beautiful Wife for Marriage 26

Luochun Courtyard.

After the doctor gave the last injection, he breathed a sigh of relief and stood up to say to the worried Jin family members in the room, "The young master is fine now. He just got wet in the rain and developed a cold. He will be fine after the fever subsides and he wakes up."

"It's mysterious. The young master is now in much better health than before, but his foundation is a little weak. He still needs to take good care of himself."

After hearing these words, Ye Yuci's shaky heart finally settled down in her stomach. She held Jinchen's hand tightly and never let go. Her whole body was still tense.

The soldiers who came back told them everything. Jin Enxing still couldn't help asking, "Dad and Mom, who is Lord Sheng? I heard someone wanted to hurt Xiaochen before the New Year, and now there's another one."

"If this continues, Xiaochen will be afraid to go anywhere like before."

Jin Jide's face darkened, and he met eyes with his eldest son Jin Yudong, "What do you think?"

Jin Yudong is just as serious as his father, "If they come back, we have to be on guard."

Jin Enxing: "...It's already this late, are you still playing dumb?"

He pointed at Ye Yuci who had his back to them the whole time, "It's not just me who doesn't understand. Yuci doesn't understand either. He's the one who's most distressed right now."

Ye Yuci was distracted when she heard her own name. She didn't know what she was thinking about. She turned around and knelt down in front of Qiao Yanpei, "Mom, I didn't take good care of my husband."

"What are you talking about, kid? You can't defend yourself against an assassin."

Qiao Yanpei hurriedly asked him to get up. He also heard the inquiry in Ye Yuci's words and sighed, "This matter has to start from... the year when I first became pregnant with Chen'er."

"Then Lord Sheng was your father's colleague and good friend before he resigned from office. As the emperor's merchants, our two families almost monopolized the country's commerce, purchasing and operating for the royal family."

"But Lord Sheng is greedy and always uses the emperor's will to plunder the people's wealth and enrich himself. Many people in remote areas are living in poverty and have nowhere to file a complaint. It happened that your father passed by the city run by Lord Sheng at that time and learned about this."

Jin Enxing was furious when he heard this: "Did father file a complaint on behalf of the people?"

Jin Jide sighed suddenly, raised his head and drank the last sip of hot tea, as if suppressing infinite emotions, "Of course."

Qiao Yanpei: "It was because of this complaint that the emperor was furious and ordered people to detain Lord Sheng and thoroughly investigate all the cities, counties and towns run by the Sheng family. But at this time... Madam Sheng was pregnant and still running around to manage relationships. In the end, she miscarried and both mother and child died."

Ye Yuci frowned and clenched his fingers.

"In the end, all the corruption of the Sheng family was discovered, and it was more serious than we thought. The emperor sentenced the entire family to be executed, but when the execution was carried out, no one knew who rescued Master Sheng, and there has been no news since then."

After Qiao Yanpei finished speaking, she looked at her little son on the bed again, "Mrs. Sheng and I are both pregnant at the same time. Maybe Lord Sheng wants revenge, so he wants to start with Chen'er first."

"No wonder..." Jin Enxing suddenly realized.

No wonder my father suddenly resigned from his official position that year and insisted that Chen'er be born in Chuanze City.

Ye Yuci turned around and asked in a hoarse voice, "Mother, my husband said that he had a strange disease when he was young. Was it also caused by Master Sheng?"

Qiao Yanpei's eyes were red, and she couldn't help crying when she thought of the past. "Yes, it was him."

Jin Yudong: "We want to check."

He looked at Ye Yuci and said, "Although we were able to conclude that it was Lord Sheng's work back then, all the clues point directly to Prince Li's Mansion."

Prince Li, the younger brother of the current emperor, has great power in the court and almost no one can shake his power.

As a last resort, they could only lay low, secretly develop their power, and at the same time quietly climb up, striving to one day find the real culprit who hurt Jinchen in the past and take revenge.

Ye Yuci still lowered her eyes, showing no sign of happiness, anger or sadness. She turned around and faced Jinchen on the bed, clearly wanting to sit here and wait for him to wake up.

An unknown amount of time had passed before the Jin family, after confirming that Jinchen was fine, left Luochunyuan without disturbing Ye Yuci.

Until it was getting dark.

But at the end of the day, Ye Yuci hardly ate anything. The food that Lvyi brought in changed several times, and finally she left with the cold plate.

That night, Jinchen still did not wake up.

On the contrary, just as the court doctor said, the fever will become more severe after acupuncture, and it will be better after sweating and waiting for the morning.

Ye Yuci curled up in Jinchen's arms, and as the night deepened, she heard a low mumbling in her ear while half asleep and half awake.

He hurriedly propped himself up and asked softly, "Husband?"

“…It’s so hot. It’s so hot.”

Jinchen's consciousness was hazy. He felt as if he was being burned in a fire. His whole body was extremely hot and sweat was running down his temples.

Ye Yuci held down his hand that was about to lift the quilt, and said softly, "Don't lift the quilt. Sweating will help you get better faster."

Jinchen couldn't hear anything.

He continued to mutter and used a little strength to push her away, but he sensed a familiar breath while struggling. His pupils moved a few times under his thin eyelids, and he suddenly put his arms around Ye Yuci's waist.

"It's so hot, don't cover yourself with a blanket." Jinchen was very angry.

Ye Yuci was so burned by him that her breath was also hot. She rubbed her face against Jinchen's neck and said softly, "Husband, please bear with it for a while. I will sleep with you."

Jinchen was silent for a while, his eyelashes trembled several times, but he couldn't wake up. He was only attracted by the body in his arms, which was much colder than his own. He clung to the body tighter and tighter, and his hot lips caressed the corners of Ye Yuci's eyes.

After a while of this, Jinchen couldn't resist the fatigue and sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep again.

When I woke up again, it was already bright the next day.

-

Jinchen moved his eyelids and felt sore all over.

broken.

Who got beaten up?

As Jinchen thought about this, his consciousness, which had been in a state of confusion all night, suddenly broke through the haze and his peach blossom eyes suddenly opened.

"Cough cough cough... cough cough!"

My lungs and throat were itching so badly that I felt like I had to cough up blood.

Jinchen coughed a few times, pressed a few acupoints with his fingers, and used his spiritual power to clear them, which made him feel much better.

The house was filled with warm fragrance, bright and cozy.

The door of the wing room was pushed open, and when Ye Yuci saw Jinchen, her calm eyes were stunned for a moment, and then suddenly burst into light.

"Ah Ci, come here and let me hug you."

Jinchen was very listless, leaning against the head of the bed, weak and frail. His originally noble and handsome face was tainted with a hint of sickness, making him very pitiful.

Ye Yuci subconsciously quickly sat down beside Jinchen, and when he hugged her, she used the back of her hand to feel the temperature of his forehead.

"It's not burning anymore, don't worry, Ah Ci."

Jinchen knew that he was in the wrong, and whispered while kissing Ye Yuci's earlobe.

Obviously not very useful.

Seeing that Jinchen's fever had subsided and he had no obvious discomfort, he was still weak. Ye Yuci helped him lie down again and asked Duoyu in a cold voice to prepare the food.

He looked angry the whole time.

Jinchen lay on the bed, touched the tip of his nose, and coughed lightly, "Aci?"
