Chapter 86 Sihexiang 26

Bao Ruoyou's body was still in severe pain, and his throat seemed to be burned by charcoal fire. As soon as he opened his mouth, there was an unbearable sting. His mind was also drowsy, especially when he opened his eyes and saw that he was wrapped in a brocade quilt. Among them, Huo Weilou actually held her in his arms, which shocked her. This was too bizarre! This must be just a dream!

How can I hear my own voice in my dream?

"Are you awake?" Huo Weilou asked.

Bao Ruoyou was stunned, how could she still hear Huo Weilou's voice? It was so real, it didn't seem like a dream at all. She closed her eyes and opened them again. When she raised her head, she met Huo Weilou's dark phoenix eyes. .

Huo Weilou stared at her, fearing that she would have another nightmare and cry. However, although her eyes were bloodshot and a little tired and fragile, they were clear and clear. More importantly, she clearly recognized him.

Bao Ruoyou was in a daze and did not react for a moment. She struggled, raised her weak hand, and waved it in front of Huo Weilou's eyes. Huo Weilou frowned because of her shaking. At this time, Her expression suddenly changed.

Looking down at the situation again, she was a little confused.

Huo Weilou looked at her like this, raised his hand and touched her forehead, and said to himself: "You don't have a fever. Could it be that you are not awake yet?"

Swallowing with difficulty, Bao Ruoyou first eased the pain in her neck, stared back for a moment, and finally remembered some scenes from last night. She returned home, was in danger, and was kidnapped. It was Han Qi. "Sister", that person wanted to kill her, and at the most dangerous moment, it seemed that Huo Weilou had arrived...

Bao Ruoyou shrank her shoulders with lingering fear. A little fear surged in her heart. She gritted her teeth before she could hold it back. She looked around doubtfully, thinking that the pain on her body was from an injury, but why was it right now? This look?

She struggled briefly and found that Huo Weilou's hug was still very tight.

Noticing her little move, Huo Weilou's heart dropped, "It seems he is awake."

Heat crept onto her cheeks silently, and Bo Ruoyou shrank back into the quilt, hoarsely saying: "Master Marquis, the daughter of the people is awake, why...what happened to you?"

This scene was beyond Bo Ruoyou's cognition. No matter how she deduced it, it was difficult to find a reasonable explanation. Fortunately, Huo Weilou explained at this time: "You were seriously injured, and I took you back to the Hou Mansion. But you suddenly had a nightmare in the middle of the night. You opened your eyes but were still awake, and you kept crying and wanted to hide. I couldn't, so I had to hold you down."

After saying that, Huo Weilou let go, laid her flat on the bed again, pulled the corner of the quilt for her, but did not leave, but sat next to her, looking at her a little differently than usual.

The bottom of his pupils was a little dark and difficult to see. Although his face was expressionless, it did not have the overwhelming feeling of the past. Instead, his eyes were continuous and showed a bit of concern.

Bao Ruoyou looked at Huo Weilou and thought it was because she was injured. However, she couldn't remember the crying last night. She only felt a severe pain in her neck, so she raised her hand and touched it, although she couldn't see it. , but the swelling of the tentacles was already frightening. She knew some medical skills and knew that she was seriously injured. Before she could think of it, the hand that fell on the wound was grabbed. Huo Weilou looked at it with disapproval. She said, "The wound has been medicated, you don't have to worry."

Huo Weilou's palms were hot, and this catch made Bo Ruoyou's groggy head sober up a little.

However, Huo Weilou just stuffed her hands into the quilt and looked at her with a more friendly expression.

Bao Ruoyou's hand was still warm from his palm, and her heartbeat was a little fast for a moment. She thought about it carefully, and more details poured into her mind, and then she asked: "Last night, it was Mr. Hou who found A civilian girl? Saved a civilian girl?"

Huo Weilou said "hmm" and saw that she looked fine, so he didn't want to call someone immediately. He just sat down by the bed, closer to her. At this time, Bo Ruoyou suddenly remembered something, and she hurriedly said : "Master Hou, Han Qi's sister is a man..."

Hearing her hoarse voice while reciting the case, Huo Weilou couldn't laugh or cry, "I already know these, and the person is already in custody. Ning Xiao will interrogate the case, so you don't have to worry."

Bao Ruoyou breathed a sigh of relief, and she turned her eyes to look at the room again. Seeing that the decoration here was elegant and elegant, with a neat and capable style, and it was still a man's thing, she immediately reacted, "Here... …Is this the Marquis’s sleeping place?”

Huo Weilou looked at her calmly, "Yes, how about it?"

When Bao Ruoyou thought that this was where Huo Weilou slept, and that the brocade quilt on his body was usually covered by Huo Weilou, and the soft pillow under his head was also used by Huo Weilou, he felt that the brocade quilt and pillow were a bit hot. Not to mention Huo Weilou, he was just an ordinary man. How could she sleep on his bed?

She was a little shocked for a moment, "How dare a civilian girl sleep in the Marquis's bedroom?"

Huo Weilou looked at her thoughtfully. The person in front of him was as thick as an elm tree and had a pure mind. He didn't know what to do with her for a moment, so he said kindly: "I'll let you sleep. You can sleep."

Bao Ruoyou wanted to come by herself, but she only guessed that it was because she was in a critical situation last night, and Huo Weilou brought her here out of desperation. Although she felt quite embarrassed, she was a little moved in her heart, "Thank you, Lord Marquis, for saving your life." , the Marquis saved the daughter of the people again, but the daughter of the people really had nothing to repay..."

Although Huo Weilou heard her voice hoarse, she could still form sentences intermittently. He felt relieved and was not in a hurry to call Ming Guilan. When he saw her looking grateful, he looked deeply and said: " I have heard this many times."

After all, he couldn't bear to tease her at this time, and sighed: "Does it hurt so much? Last night was very thrilling."

Huo Weilou's question evoked the grievances deep in Bo Ruoyou's heart. The clearer his mind became, the more vividly everything happened last night became more vivid in his mind. Although he had been a widower for several years, there were times when he was frightened, but he was not like this. After a moment, there was a softness in her eyes, and the tip of her nose was a little sore. She shook her head and said, "It doesn't hurt. Fortunately, the Marquis is here. When the girl was in despair last night, she..."

Her reaction was a little slow at this time. She had already finished speaking halfway before she realized that her words were inappropriate. Huo Weilou's eyes tightened and he asked, "What?"

Bao Ruoyou lowered his voice in embarrassment, but quite sincerely, "The Marquis has saved Min's daughter many times. Min's daughter was thinking about it last night, if the Marquis knows that Min's daughter was kidnapped, will he? I came to save the women of the people, and later the Marquis really came. He is really the great benefactor of the women of the people."

Huo Weilou felt more pity in his heart, and blamed himself for not going earlier. He couldn't help but leaned forward and rubbed her quilt, "You are still hurt, please stop talking. You have suffered a lot this time. From now on, never again."

His eyes were full of pity, and his voice was rare and gentle. His last words were more like a promise, which surprised Bao Ruoyou. She looked at Huo Weilou with slightly opened eyes. Although he was making her feel uncomfortable. , but it didn't reject it, it just shrank down again.

The brocade quilt was placed under her chin, and her small face was framed by a pillow full of dark hair, which made me feel pity for her. She was always gentle and calm on weekdays, and her temperament was comparable to that of Orchid and Bamboo. She rarely looked lonely and weak. , at this moment, he is injured and sick, but it is rare for him to appear childish and tender.

Huo Weilou spoke more slowly, "Your injuries are not serious and you will have to recover for many days. It is a great blessing to wake up so early."

Bo Ruoyou calmed down for a moment, and more details of last night came into his mind. He felt a bit like the rest of his life after a disaster, and there was gratitude to Huo Weilou in his eyes. His expression was complicated and difficult to understand. He asked Huo Weilou to look at it. His heart ached even more. Bo Ruoyou turned his eyes and saw that the sky was already slightly bright. He immediately remembered that he was kidnapped from home last night, "Master Hou, his adoptive father--"

"Your adoptive father is in the Marquis Mansion. He entered the house last night and is resting in the guest house now. He will come to see you later." After Huo Weilou said this, his eyes suddenly darkened, "I want you to stay Are you willing to recuperate in the Marquis Mansion?"

Bo Ruoyou hesitated, "Why stay in the Hou Mansion to recuperate?"

Huo Weilou said seriously: "There are many civilian residences around your house. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mixed bag of good and bad. You were kidnapped at home. How can I safely let you return home to recuperate?"

Bo Ruoyou frowned slightly, "This...is inconsistent with etiquette..."

"You care about your health, why do you care about so many etiquettes?" His tone darkened slightly, and his eyes darkened, "If you don't respond to me, I really won't worry."

Even though Bao Ruoyou reacted slowly, he felt a little flattered at this moment, "Master Hou——"

Huo Weilou leaned forward and brushed the messy hair from the side of her face. With this command, Bo Ruoyou's eyes widened. If Huo Weilou had only one oddity, it could be explained that she was injured, but at this moment he saw But there is more than one quirk.

She shrank back into the quilt again, Huo Weilou's eyes narrowed, "How? Maybe you can help me?"

Bao Ruoyou looked at Huo Weilou with confusion. Although his heart was beating like a drum, he kept his composure on his face, and with a hoarse voice, he asked suspiciously: "What's wrong with Mr. Marquis?"

Huo Weilou was full of pity. Being blocked by her like this, the hand that brushed her dark hair froze, "What's wrong?"

Bao Ruoyou's throat hurt so much that she found it difficult to speak. However, just because she was injured, Huo Weilou was so gentle and approachable, which really made her nervous. "A civilian girl...even though she was injured, she It’s not a big deal, Lord Marquis doesn’t have to be like this..."

Huo Weilou sounded funny, "It doesn't have to be like this?"

Bao Ruoyou only had one pair of eyes exposed at the moment, and said angrily: "The Marquis doesn't even look like the Marquis anymore, the daughter of the people...the daughter of the people is a little scared..."

Huo Weilou: "..."

Bao Ruoyou was really a little scared. Huo Weilou was not a womanizer, but from the moment she opened her eyes, she always felt that the way Huo Weilou looked at her was a little strange. He was so gentle and kind that she was like a different person. Normally, but she was someone who would not have any unreasonable thoughts. She just thought that Huo Weilou was in a daze.

Huo Weilou looked at Bao Ruoyou and seemed to realize how helpless Eunuch Fu looked at him. However, he was much smarter than the man in front of him. He leaned forward and moved the brocade quilt that was almost blocking half of her face. Pulling it down, "What about that so you're not afraid?"

Bo Ruoyou said with a bitter face, "Master Hou, it's better to treat the women of the people as usual."

Huo Weilou was laughed at by her, "How do I usually treat you?"

"The Marquis... uses the women of the people as his subordinates..."

Huo Weilou couldn't bear it anymore, shook his head and said helplessly: "Have you ever seen me send any of my subordinates home? When have I ever taken a break for such a small case? Am I doing this for Ning Xiao? Can’t do it?”

Bao Ruoyou's face was warm and her ears were warm, and her words were ambiguous. Now that she couldn't hear anything strange, her clever mind was wasted. She looked at Huo Weilou with wide eyes, but she didn't dare to ask a word. She didn't dare to say anything, for fear that she would ask the wrong question or say the wrong thing, causing Huo Weilou to scold her for being sentimental. But her heartbeat was about to jump out of her throat, but she couldn't believe it. She was stunned for a moment and saw Huo Weilou looking at her with burning eyes. , and couldn't help but want to hide under the quilt.

Huo Weilou held her waist down across the quilt to prevent her from hiding. He looked at her with phoenix-like eyes. After a few breaths, he said in a deep voice as if he had made up his mind completely: "That life-saving grace, It’s not impossible to repay—”

Bao Ruoyou felt that her face was very hot. She had a premonition of what Huo Weilou was going to say, so she hurriedly said: "A daughter of the people... a daughter of the people is willing to go through fire and water for the sake of Lord Hou——"

Huo Weilou raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Do I want you to slander me?"

He leaned forward slightly, "I don't want you to be a mess, nor do I want you to go through fire and water. I want you as a person, and you have to stay in the Marquis Mansion to recuperate in the past few days. Is it possible?"

His eyes were as bright as fire and his words were straightforward, not allowing her to retreat. Bo Ruoyou was stunned for a moment, "Master Hou——"

Now she couldn't believe it, but she was also shocked by Huo Weilou's words. She knew very well that Huo Weilou was not a person who spoke freely, just as she knew that Huo Weilou had no intention of **** after women, but she never thought that Huo Weilou actually I have this in mind for her.

She stared blankly at Huo Weilou, who seemed to be stunned. A look of shock and suspicion fell in Huo Weilou's eyes. It was not a surprise. His phoenix eyes were narrow, "That's it for what I said, this Well, do you want to repay it or not?"

Bo Ruoyou was speechless for a long time, but Huo Weilou said: "If you don't say anything, I will take it as your promise to stay in the Hou Mansion. Firstly, I can take good care of you. Secondly, I can see you every day. It’s so reassuring.”

Bo Ruoyou's face was on fire, but she felt that his sudden explicit thoughts were a bit illusory and unreal, because she had never had such thoughts before. Huo Weilou was so direct that she was shocked. At a loss.

"Your adoptive father will come to see you later. I want you to tell him that you want to stay in the Hou Mansion." Huo Weilou saw that she was stunned for a long time without saying anything, so he couldn't help but put his hand under her brocade quilt and hold it. He grabbed her hand, which frightened Bo Ruoyou and started to struggle, but he couldn't help but hold her and hold her tight, "I know you followed me without any other thought, so I was very surprised, but I kept true to what I said just now, you You can’t believe it.”

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said with a hint of danger: "If you don't stay in the Marquis' Mansion, I will go to your house every day. By then, everyone will know about the fuss. Although I am meaningless, , but I’m afraid you won’t be able to accept it for a while, do you understand?”

Huo Weilou was quite self-controlled when his thoughts were unclear, but now that he has made such a decision, his resolute and resolute behavior has been consistent. After he finished speaking a few words, when he saw that Bo Ruoyou still had a complicated face, he knew that he had to give it to her. After some time, he squeezed her palm and said, "I'll call Ming Guilan. Don't move, okay?"

Bao Ruoyou's eyes moved, and Huo Weilou let her go and stood up. Her eyes were black and white, like a frightened deer, but she kept looking at him. Although she was surprised, there was no disgust or rejection. Huo Weilou had already expected this and didn't say anything more. Instead, he felt relieved after expressing his feelings. He turned around and walked out.

As soon as he went out, he met Eunuch Fu. When Eunuch Fu saw him, he asked: "Master Hou, Youyou, she——"

"I'm awake, but I can't speak, and I haven't had any fever. Go and call Ming Guilan, and then Cheng Yunzhi." Huo Weilou ordered, although he had not slept all night, there was a lot of excitement in his eyebrows. The mood makes people suspicious.

Eunuch Fu frowned and looked at him for a moment suspiciously, "Youyou woke up, the Marquis should be happy, but why does the Marquis look like he has done something proud?"

Huo Weilou looked at Mr. Fu and said fairly: "I have asked her to stay in the Marquis Mansion to recuperate, and she will tell Cheng Yunzhi herself."

Eunuch Fu was stunned, "Youyou agreed?"

Huo Weilou looked confident, his eyebrows raised, "Of course."

The more Eunuch Fu looked at it, the more wrong he became, "Did the Marquis say anything else?"

Huo Weilou said seriously: "I made it clear to her."

Eunuch Fu opened his mouth in shock, "The Marquis and Youyou said... are you interested in her?"

Seeing Huo Weilou nod, Eunuch Fu quickly asked, "How did Youyou react?"

Huo Weilou said: "It was a bit unexpected, but let her take it easy." He looked solemn and calm, as if everything was under control.

Eunuch Fu showed a bitter look on his face, "Youyou is injured. It's okay for you to be more concerned when you feel distressed, but you are not afraid of scaring people this time? If Youyou doesn't want to——"

Huo Weilou frowned, "Why wouldn't she want to?"

Bao Ruoyou trusts him and has some respect for him. He can see all this clearly. He protects her, appreciates and values ​​her, and cares about her. She is not an ignorant and cold-blooded person. People are even more grateful to him now. What's more, in terms of talent, appearance, status and power, he is a figure that all women in the world yearn for. How could Bo Ruoyou not be willing?

When Eunuch Fu saw Huo Weilou like this, he felt even more worried in his heart. However, the matter was complicated and could not be explained clearly in a few words. "Youyou's injury is serious now. I will go and ask Mr. Ming and Mr. Cheng to come over first - —"

Huo Weilou responded, with a slight curve at the corner of his lips, and turned back into the inner room. But when he entered the inner room again and saw Bo Ruoyou lying on the bed, he suddenly felt a wave of anger. A bad feeling.

Bao Ruoyou, who was lying on the couch, looked worried, as if she was thinking hard about something. Although there was no displeasure on her face, there was no joy or joy. Even the discomfort caused by shyness only remained. A little bit between the eyebrows.

Huo Weilou could see that her mind was much clearer than before, and she was more calm and self-possessed. The illness and injury did not make her really weak. He stepped forward, feeling something was wrong in his heart, but it didn't show on his face, "Go call Ming Guilan and your adoptive father."

Bao Ruoyou pulled Jin to the tip of his nose, only revealing a pair of eyes looking at him with one part scrutiny and one part timidity. Seeing her like this, Huo Weilou didn't know what strange places she had thought of, and said angrily. : "What's wrong?"

Bo Ruoyou said in an angry voice again, "Folk girl——"

Huo Weilou immediately made a gesture of silence, "You don't have to call yourself that in front of me from now on."

"People...I..." Ruoyou was not used to such thin words. She stumbled before continuing: "I still haven't thought clearly about what the Marquis just said. People's girls are quite good and they value people's girls very much. Now that you say you want people's girls...do you think that people's girls are not loyal enough to you?"

Only the king and his ministers can talk about loyalty. Although Huo Weilou couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, he was not surprised. Bo Ruoyouruo really listened to what he said and immediately threw himself into his arms with joy. That's when I really saw a ghost.

Huo Weilou reached into the brocade quilt again and grabbed her hand. Bo Ruoyou secretly struggled to free himself, but how could he escape?

Huo Weilou looked into her eyes and said word by word: "You should know that I am not a womanizer. No female family member has ever entered the gate of the Marquis' Mansion except the people from the Princess Mansion. I am not a womanizer." No woman has ever entered the room, especially since you were the first to lie down on my bed. No matter how considerate and appreciative I am of my subordinates, I will not let them lie on my bed because of this——"

Bo Ruoyou's face turned red as blood when he heard this. At this moment, voices sounded outside the door. It was Eunuch Fu who came with Cheng Yunzhi and Ming Guilan. Bo Ruoyou heard Cheng Yunzhi's voice far away, Her face flushed even more, and she quickly tried to break away from Huo Weilou's hand. The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Huo Weilou looked at him with a faint expression, but did not let go.

Bao Ruoyou became anxious, "I know, I understand, I understand, Lord Marquis, please let go. If my adoptive father sees us being so rude, he will definitely not want me to stay in the Marquis' Mansion."

"Then I'll take it as your promise." Huo Weilou said and let her go.

Bo Ruoyou's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Huo Weilou stood up, brushed his robe, and took a few steps outside calmly. Cheng Yun walked in and looked at the bed. The flush on Bo Ruoyou's face had not yet faded. , looked sick again, looking like she had caught the cold. Later, Eunuch Fu and Ming Guilan came in, giving her father and daughter a moment to talk.

Ming Guilan helped her diagnose her pulse again, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The medicine was used in time, and Miss Bo's body is stronger than I thought. Her pulse has improved a lot. Just listening to Miss Bo's words, her neck... The wound on the chest needs to be healed for a long time. Removing swelling and blood stasis from the strangulation injury is the second priority. I am still afraid of hurting the inner meridians and hurting the throat."

Bo Ruoyou speaks in a rough voice now, which is especially self-harming for women. Bo Ruoyou smiled and said, "It's okay, even if my voice becomes rougher in the future, it doesn't matter. As for the meridians, I just feel The pain in my neck is severe, and I may have some bruises, but as long as my muscles and bones are not injured, it will be fine."

Ming Guilan smiled slightly: "Miss Bo has an open-minded temperament. In this case, she will continue to use it according to my prescription. Use it for two days to see the effect. Mr. Hou has some good medicine here. Most of them will not be able to use it. Let Miss Bo leave a scar."

At this point, Cheng Yunzhi remembered what he said the night before, "Youyou, the Marquis said that he felt guilty about your injury this time and wanted you to recuperate in the Marquis' Mansion. Are you willing?"

Huo Weilou was standing behind Cheng Yunzi. When he heard this, he immediately looked at her deeply. Bao Ruoyou swallowed hard and couldn't help but hide his hands deeper in the quilt and thought for a while. Cai Dao said: "Since Lord Marquis has this intention, then... I will stay in the Marquis Mansion today and wait until tomorrow——"

When Huo Weilou heard this, he frowned in disapproval. Seeing this, Bo Ruoyou could only say: "I will go home after I finish using Mr. Ming's medicine tomorrow and the day after. If my adoptive father is worried, he can come over every day to check on me." , okay?"

Cheng Yunzhi naturally did not want to let Bao Ruoyou stay in the Hou Mansion. It was not that Ri was incapable of being accommodating. He nodded and turned to look at Huo Weilou, "If that's the case, then I'm going to bother the Marquis for the next two days."

Huo Weilou said sincerely: "That's right. After all, this matter started because of me."

Cheng Yunzhi kept saying that he didn't dare, so Eunuch Fu sent someone to bring breakfast and decoction. Seeing that Cheng Yunzhi was really concerned about Bo Ruoyou, Huo Weilou was kind and compassionate and took Eunuch Fu and Ming Guilan away. After leaving, Bo Ruoyou looked at Cheng Yunzhi with tears in his eyes, "Father-"

Cheng Yunzhi's eyes were slightly red, and he could see that Bo Ruoyou was a little uneasy, but he just thought that she was suffering from this disaster and had lingering fears, so he had to be relieved. It was even more impossible for Bo Ruoyou to tell Huo Weilou those harsh words. Cheng Yunzhi heard that having her adoptive father comfort her made her feel more at ease.

After staying with him until noon, Cheng Yunzhi glanced at the sky and felt that he would be rude if he stayed for a long time. Then he told Bao Ruoyou to rest well and prepare to leave. When leaving, Cheng Yunzhi looked at the men's clothes on Bo Ruoyou's body. It was a little uncomfortable to see Bo Ruoyou again. The place where he was recuperating was the main courtyard. There were mostly men's things in the room, and he felt like his heart was fried.

As soon as Cheng Yun left, Bo Ruoyou was alone in the Hou Mansion. She had never been afraid in the Hou Mansion before, but now she felt quite uneasy. Huo Weilou had been waiting in the study all morning. A little impatient, he just returned to the inner room. As soon as he entered the door, Bao Ruoyou immediately pulled up the quilt and covered himself tightly.

Huo Weilou looked funny. As soon as he walked to the bed and sat down, Bo Ruoyou's face was already red. Before she said anything, Huo Weilou had a stern face and pretended to be unhappy, "When will I Did I tell you that you would only stay for three days?"

Bao Ruoyou was pitiful, and felt that although Huo Weilou had changed, it had not changed. Wherever he was, he always told the truth. She said helplessly: "Master Hou has a high position, I don't know how many people are watching. Lord Marquis, how can I stay here for a long time? My adoptive father is worried."

Seeing that she was sick, Huo Weilou spoke in a low voice as if he was really frightened by him. He could not help but relax his eyebrows and said, "That's all, three days is fine." He said in a soft voice, "You can rest here to recover. Nothing is more important now than recovering from your injuries."

Once a person who is usually cold and gentle becomes gentle, he will be particularly hard to resist. Bo Ruoyou’s heartbeat was a little fast when he looked at Huo Weilou like this, so he forced himself to calm down and tugged on his clothes: "Master Hou, what's wrong with me?" How do you change clothes?"
