After confirming that Chaoli was asleep, Gu Hanzhang gently opened his clothes.
Fortunately, the wound did not crack this time and there was no need to change the dressing again. The previous medicine was indeed effective.
The next morning, Chaoli opened her eyes and found that her body was very light. She did not feel as heavy as Kuishui in the past. She couldn't help but look sideways at Gu Hanzhang who seemed to be sleeping soundly next to her.
Could it be because he is around?
Chaoli subconsciously denied this answer. After all, she slept with him every day in her previous life. It seemed that her health got much better after she had a miscarriage in the second year of marriage.
Dr. Fan said that she must take good care of her body after giving birth, otherwise she would easily get the root cause of the disease, so Qing Yi stewed a lot of supplements for her.
Wait, she seemed to have eaten something when she was unconscious on the day of her miscarriage. It tasted fragrant and slightly sweet, and the sweetness remained in her mouth.
Chaoli suddenly sat up and looked at Gu Hanzhang with complicated eyes.
In fact, Gu Hanzhang had woken up a long time ago. He also knew that Chaoli was looking at him, but he didn't know what she wanted, so he didn't tell her.
But Chaoli's eyes became more and more complicated, and Gu Hanzhang finally couldn't help but open his eyes.
"What are you watching me do?" Gu Hanzhang asked.
Since he didn't speak all night, Gu Hanzhang's voice was a little hoarse and magnetic, which was unexpectedly pleasant.
Chaoli blushed unexpectedly, but did not avoid Gu Hanzhang's gaze.
"Your Majesty, there is something I don't understand. I hope your Majesty can clarify it."
Gu Hanzhang looked calm, "What's the matter?"
No one noticed that his hands under the quilt curled up for a moment before slowly unfolding them.
Chaoli had doubts in his heart, and no matter how red his face was now, he just wanted to clear up his doubts.
"Your Majesty, what kind of antidote did you give me at the palace banquet that day?" Chaoli waited with bated breath for Gu Hanzhang's answer.
Gu Hanzhang was really caught off guard by Chao Li's question.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Hanzhang decided to tell the truth.
"That's the heavenly fragrant cardamom gifted by the Holy One."
Chaoli's pupils shrank, "It's actually the heavenly fragrant cardamom? The heavenly fragrant cardamom that is rumored to be good for strengthening the body and detoxifying all kinds of poisons? I heard that it was a tribute given to the late emperor from southern Xinjiang. There were three of them in total, and they were later used by the late emperor.
His beloved concubine used one, he used one himself, and this last one was actually given to you by the Holy One?"
Hearing this, Gu Hanzhang was a little surprised.
"Yes, I didn't expect you to know the origin." Gu Hanzhang said calmly.
Hearing Gu Hanzhang's words, Chaoli had mixed feelings in his heart.
No wonder you can remember such a taste after eating it once. It turns out that it is naturally fragrant cardamom, which exudes a special fragrance, so it can stay fragrant on your lips and teeth.
But for such a precious thing, which can strengthen the body and eliminate hundreds of poisons, Gu Hanzhang actually gave her the little poison!
So in his previous life, Gu Hanzhang came back from a serious injury and did not use the fragrant cardamom. Instead, he fed it to her after she had a miscarriage.
She couldn't keep the child because she didn't have the fate, but she always complained about Gu Hanzhang in her heart.
However, he didn't say anything and allowed her to hysterically vent her anger on him, not to mention that he gave her medicine to nurse her back. No wonder after a few months, her health suddenly improved a lot, and she thought it was...
Tsing Yi’s contribution to those supplements.
Could it be that in his heart, losing a child is equally painful?
As a man, it was impossible for him to cry heartbrokenly like her. A man would not shed tears easily. In his previous life, he might not be as ruthless as she imagined.
For a moment, Chaoli felt very complicated and a little uncomfortable.
"Why did you give it to me? Maybe it should have been something that saved your life." Chaoli's eyes turned red.
After thinking about this, Chaoli felt unusually sad.
"It's just a pill. I performed meritorious deeds at the border, and the Holy One sent someone to deliver it to my home. After I returned home, my mother gave it to me and has always kept it with me. That day you were hit by the medicine and it was too late to go to the Imperial Hospital.
What's more, I'm afraid someone will find out what I traced, so I gave the medicine to you." Gu Hanzhang remained indifferent.
In fact, Gu Hanzhang rarely spoke so much. He was not a show-off person and would not shout out what he had done.
But since Chaoli asked, Gu Hanzhang didn't hide anything.
Perhaps at that moment, Gu Hanzhang hesitated. It was not that he was reluctant to give Chaoli the Tianxiang cardamom, but he was thinking about taking advantage of her being drugged and killing her directly.
But it was so despicable that Gu Hanzhang really couldn't do it.
When Chaoli heard these words, his heart became even more complicated.
However, even so, I will not forget the past of my previous life.
Just because of this incident, it was impossible for Chaoli to forget the pain of those three years. All the pain went deep into her bones, making her unable to rest in peace.
"You should tell me that the fragrant cardamom is so valuable, but I can't repay it." Chaoli whispered.
Gu Hanzhang was most unwilling to hear Chao Li's outspoken words, "No, it was given by me and you don't need to repay it. Since you are married to me, you are my wife even in name only."
Chaoli raised his head and looked at Gu Hanzhang steadily.
wife?
This sentence actually came out of Gu Hanzhang's mouth. Is this a recognition of her?
Unfortunately, it's too late.
"Your Majesty, you don't have to be like this, I will definitely repay you."
If there is no debt, there is no need to meet.
Gu Hanzhang could hear the meaning of Chaoli's mouth. His mood became a little gloomy and his eyes became cold.
"There is no need to repay it. You reminded me to put on the breast shield and gold silk armor earlier, and I have already repaid it."
After saying that, Gu Hanzhang stood up and started dressing.
Chaoli didn't want to say anything and stood up silently, and the atmosphere between the two became cold again.
A knock on the door interrupted the awkward atmosphere between the two of them, and Chaoli breathed a sigh of relief. She really didn't want to be alone with Gu Hanzhang when neither of them was in a good mood.
"Your Majesty, your clothes are ready."
The voice coming from outside the door was not from Qing Yi, but from Lan Xin.
A smile appeared on Chaoli's lips. It seemed that the two of them couldn't help but want to express themselves in front of Gu Hanzhang.
Gu Hanzhang accidentally caught a glimpse of Chaoli's expression, and felt a little unhappy at the moment. Chaoli didn't care at all and stood aside without saying a word.
"No need, I'll go to the study to change it and give it to Zhaocai."
Lan Xin bit her lip and paused for a moment, but didn't want to make it too obvious, so she had no choice but to agree.
Then Gu Hanzhang returned to the study. Most of his clothes were in the study, but not in the bedroom.
Chaoli looked at Gu Hanzhang's leaving figure and saw that he was already walking much faster than yesterday. He thought that his injury should be much better, so he did not ask him if he needed medicine.
After freshening up, Chaoli asked Qing Yi to ask Gu Xiyue if she was ready to go to Hanye Temple today.
Chaoli didn't like this temple very much. Perhaps it was because of his rebirth that he was afraid that the monks in the temple would see something and cause trouble, so some things were better taboo.
But she couldn't enter the main hall because she was pregnant with Kuishui, and she didn't think she could meet any monks, so it shouldn't matter.
