As Xie Yun guessed, she did sleep for a long time, and when she woke up, it was already the next morning.
The weather outside was probably very good, and the sun shone in through the gap in the tent curtain. Xie Yun raised her hand tremblingly, and her fingertips barely touched a little light. Soon, that little bit of skin became warm.
"Aunt, are you awake? It's time to drink the medicine. After you finish, I will change the bandage for you."
Xie Yun responded. Although she was inconvenient to move and only had one hand to use, she still insisted on holding the bowl herself, shaking her hands and looking up to drink it.
Xiuxiu was terrified. Seeing the medicine dripping from the corner of her mouth, she quickly took a handkerchief to wipe it: "Aunt, you are really a fool. You still have to drink medicine yourself even in this state."
"I can do it myself... Open the window, I want to bask in the sun."
Xiuxiu quickly agreed and lifted the animal skin on the window of the tent. She saw Yin Ji approaching from afar. She smiled subconsciously: "Aunt, the emperor is here to see you again."
Yin Ji came frequently these days, Xiuxiu was no longer surprised. She just said something subconsciously, but she didn't expect Xie Yun to look back at the window just now: "Go tell the emperor that I fell asleep again."
Xiuxiu looked embarrassed and couldn't help looking out the window again. Yin Ji was already very close. Maybe he even heard what they said just now: "Aunt, you really don't see him?"
Since Xie Yun woke up, she had only seen Yin Ji once, but her alienation was so obvious that it was suffocating. Now she was awake but...
"He shouldn't be here."
Xie Yun replied indifferently, without any context, but Xiuxiu didn't dare to ask again.
"Yes."
She hung up the animal skin in a hurry and went to the door. Yin Ji was about to lift the curtain of the tent, but Xiuxiu didn't have time to stop him outside the door, so she could only bite the bullet and block him in front of her: "Your Majesty."
Yin Ji waved his hand and was about to go in. Xiuxiu was a bit in the way, but he was anxious to see Xie Yun and didn't bother to argue with her. He turned around and wanted to go around, but Xiuxiu didn't let him go in at all. When he went left, she followed him to the left, and when he went right, she followed him to the right, just like a follower.
His patience ran out, and his voice suddenly sank: "Get out of the way!"
Xiuxiu shuddered and almost knelt down, but thinking of Xie Yun's order, she could only bite the bullet and continue to stop him: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I didn't mean to stop you. It was my aunt who fell asleep again. Why don't you come back another day?"
Yin Ji frowned. When he walked past the window just now, he clearly heard the two of them talking. Although he didn't hear what they said clearly, it was definitely Xie Yun's voice.
How could she sleep in such a short time?
He lowered his eyes and looked at Xiuxiu, with scrutiny in his eyes.
Xiuxiu was so guilty that she dared not look up, her body was almost stiff. Fortunately, Cai Tianxi came to smooth things over: "I think Miss Xie fell asleep again because she was in too much pain. When her injuries get better, she should have more energy."
Yin Ji thought of the bloody hole on Xie Yun's lower abdomen and the leg injury that was enough to see the bones. He was speechless for a while. He only looked at the tent through Xiuxiu. Unfortunately, due to the angle, he only saw the bed where Xie Yun was, but not the person.
