Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

565 Song Jia is sick

Li Hua turned while holding the flower vase in her hand when got startled to see Lóng Wei before him. “His Highness scared me,” she said and asked him to get aside.

Lóng Wei shook his head and took the vase from her. He put it on the table and caged her between his arms which rested on the table behind Li Hua.

“Are you still angry at me?” Lóng Wei asked.

“Do I look angry?” Li Hua asked.

“You do,” Lóng Wei said. “I sent you earlier,” he muttered.

“I was angry,” Li Hua admitted, “but not anymore.” She smiled and asked him if he started calling Qizhen his father.

Lóng Wei hummed. “I do not want to regret anymore,” he asserted.

“I am proud of Prince Lóng Wei.” Li Hua patted his shoulder and asked him to move away.

He shook his head and leaned down to kiss her when she placed her index finger on his lips. “Your Highness, the door is open and anyone can walk in. Today, so many well-wishers of His Highness came to ask about him,” she said and gradually lowered her hand.

.....

He ducked his head in the crook of her neck while Li Hua placed her hands on his chest. She started giggling as he gave her butterfly kisses on the neck and jawline.

He moved his head back and peered into her eyes. Her smile mesmerized him and attracted him toward her. His hand moved up and rested on the edge of her jaw. His thumb was on her cheek while the four fingers gently caressed the neck.

Li Hua also moved her hands slowly from her chest to his shoulders. She soon reached her right hand to his cheek and caressed it.

They stared into each other’s eyes for a while.

“Prince Lóng Wei, you are a wonderful person,” Li Hua complimented him.

“Because of you,” Lóng Wei said.

Li Hua denied that statement. “Not because of me. You were always wonderful. People failed to see it,” she stated.

“But you did see. You never judged me. From the first day we met, you were neutral to me,” Lóng Wei asserted and beheld her for another few minutes.

Soon, their lips connected and they shared a passionate kiss. She told him she wanted to meet Jin Yu and asked him to let her go.

Lóng Wei moved slightly away and she stood straight to walk ahead when he grabbed her wrist.

She tilted her head to gaze at him. Lóng Wei bent a little and lifted her legs gently. She was now above the table. He kissed her forehead first and then kissed her soft lips.

“I love you,” he said before initiating a deeper kiss.

Tianjie looked at the bouquet that he prepared from the flowers picked from the royal garden. He inhaled the scent of those flowers. “Eunuch Shi Rang, I will return in the evening,” Tianjie informed him and left the chamber.

He went in a royal carriage to reach the house where Song Jia was present.

Tianjie excitedly walked in. Soon, he reached outside Song Jia’s room. He extended his hand out to reach the door when it opened from the inside.

The female servant bowed to the Prince and he saw a copper vessel in her hand. “What happened?” He asked.

“Your Highness, Miss Song is sick,” the servant said.

Tianjie quickly walked in. He placed the bouquet on the bedside table and sat on the mattress in front of Song Jia. The other female servant had stepped back and lowered her head.

Tianjie found out that Song Jia was asleep. He placed his hand above her forehead. She was burning with a fever. “Why didn’t you inform me?” Tianjie turned furious at the servant.

“Miss Song t-told us no-not to tell the Third Prince,” the female servant said while trembling.

Tianjie took out the royal plaque from his inner pocket. “Go to the palace in the carriage outside and show this to Eunuch Shi Rang. Tell him Tianjie has ordered to bring Physician Peng Yuxian here,” Tianjie stated.

The female servant bowed and left the room.

Tianjie found Song Jia sweating profusely. It appeared strange to him. Even her hair looked wet to him.

Another servant walked in with the copper vessel in her hand which had clean water in it.

“What did Song Jia eat? Since when is she sick?” Tianjie questioned the servant.

“Since last evening, Your Highness,” the servant answered.

“And I was not informed!” Tianjie almost shouted at her, but he controlled his rage. “Leave my sight!” He said.

The servant apologized and walked out of the room.

He recalled that the male servant whom he had appointed was on a week’s leave.

“I should have sent another male servant in your service,” he murmured and waited patiently for the physician to arrive.

It took almost half an hour for Peng Yuxian to reach along with Eunuch Shi Rang.

After Peng Yuxian examined Song Jia, he asked the servant about the food that Song Jia took.

“Miss Song only took porridge,” the servant replied.

“Miss Song has eaten something poisonous,” Peng Yuxian said. Tianjie was shocked to hear it and looked at the servant.

“Did Miss Song eat berries?” The physician then asked.

The servant immediately nodded. “During the day, a seller came to sell some berries. Miss Song purchased some,” she informed them and promptly got on her knees.

“Please forgive this servant for not taking care of Miss Song,” the servant begged for her life when Tianjie asked her to leave.

“Physician Peng, is the poison dangerous?” Tianjie worriedly asked.

“Fortunately, it isn’t. I will use acupuncture to remove the poison from the veins. Also, she needs to take two pills which will reduce the temperature shortly,” Peng Yuxian asserted.

Tianjie hummed and asked him to do it quickly.

“I will inform the servants to prepare a healthy soup for Miss Song,” Eunuch Shi Rang informed Tianjie and walked out of the room.
