Chapter 562: Fish and Cage Bird
Gao Yang was lying alone on the cold floor tiles.
It was like a heavy mountain was pressing on his chest, with countless loneliness, helplessness, and despair piled up... so heavy that he couldn't get up at all.
But he felt that his chest was so empty, so empty that even his heartbeat had an echo. It was like a deserted valley, echoing with whimpering screams.
Since he was born, Nancheng Palace has been his home, but now looking at it, there is not even a single relative in this so-called home.
The one who loved him died.
Those who are alive will either abandon him or want to kill him.
In the past, he still had a throne, but now he has also lost his throne...
Gao Yang closed his eyes and choked softly.
Maybe he would have died in the Liuhua Garden that day, and maybe he would have met the Queen Mother——
Suddenly, there was a thud and something fell at his feet.
For the dark and silent palace, this was undoubtedly a loud noise.
The sound instantly pulled his drifting soul back to his body.
Gao Yang lay still without moving or making a sound.
Before he could open his eyes, a hand passed under his armpit, and the other hand held his head against her shoulder.
"Yang'er, wake up... wake up..."
The person came and shook him gently.
The low and soft voice was full of anxiety.
Gao Yang's nose felt sour and tears instantly flowed out.
He couldn't even remember the last time his mother hugged him.
After another 'Yang'er', he finally recognized the voice.
Obviously, it was not his queen mother, but the person he should push away.
However, instead of pushing her away, he closed his eyes and despicably pretended to be unconscious.
Maybe he really just doesn't have the strength.
"...Is this...crying? A nightmare?"
Her voice was so soft that he couldn't tell whether she was asking him or talking to herself.
Maybe it was because he was still awake, so she no longer persisted in trying to wake him up.
Before figuring out her next move, she was already staggering to a certain place carrying him on her back.
Gao Yang wanted to stop her, but he didn't know what to say or how to say it. He didn't want to see her again, let alone talk to her.
What's more, he is now a deposed emperor and has no use value to her. Why should she pretend to care about his life and death anymore?
Is it possible that he is really afraid that he, the deposed emperor, will tell some secrets and shake Gao Hao's throne?
Gao Yang closed his mouth tightly and didn't want to open his eyes more and more.
After a shaky journey, she put him back on the bed.
After taking off his shoes, he pulled the quilt aside to cover him.
He could clearly hear her breathing slightly. Although he was not fat, he was not light for her.
She only stood by the bed, then turned and left in the darkness.
Listening to the footsteps walking away, Gao Yang opened his eyes and shrank under the quilt. Maybe she just came to see if he was dead——
Suddenly, disappeared The footsteps sounded again.
There was a light on getting closer and closer to him.
The light is weak, not too bright, but for people who have been in the dark for a long time, it is enough to make people panic for a moment, as if the black cloth covering his face was suddenly pulled off, revealing his true face to the public. .
Without the cover of darkness, Gao Yang could only close his eyes and dare not move.
The man on the bed was unconscious, with a face so white that it turned blue, and lips that were peeling and cracked. If it weren't for the shallow breathing and two clear tear stains on his face, he would have thought it was a corpse.
Liang Han put down the lamp and sat down on the edge of the couch.
I reached out and touched Gao Yang's forehead. It was very hot.
He is having a fever.
It's cold, you're wearing such thin clothes, and you're lying on the cold ground, how can you not be cold?
Liang Han picked up the spoon, poured some hot water on it, and slowly dripped it in along the corners of Gao Yang's lips.
After feeding him half a bowl of hot water, Gu Ya came in with a copper basin.
"Your Majesty, do you want to inform the imperial physician?" It is already late. If you inform the imperial physician now, everyone in the palace will definitely know.
Their current situation is very embarrassing -
The Queen Mother's thoughts are really hard to understand.
She was the one who proposed to depose the emperor, and it was she who protected the deposed emperor.
Gu Ya stared at Liang Han timidly.
Liang Huan blurted out without thinking: "Just pass it on to Imperial Physician Fu."
Gu Ya was startled, lowered her eyes, licked her lips, and said with some difficulty: "Mother, you have forgotten, Imperial Physician Fu, Imperial Physician Fu has..."
Liang Huan's hand holding the spoon froze.
Yes, how could she forget that Dr. Fu slept on the street all night after being drunk and froze to death.
When he was discovered, his body was as stiff as an ice cube.
Liang Han put down the porcelain bowl in his hand, looked at the sleeping person on the bed, and then at Gu Ya.
"Go and pass it on, anyone can do it."
Gu Ya lowered her head and said, "Yes."
Just when Gu Ya was about to leave, Liang Huan stopped her.
“You don’t have to carry people on your back. The more troops and people you mobilize, the better. It’s best to let everyone in the palace know that King Guangning is sick.”
Gu Ya responded, bowed and retreated. go out.
Liang Huan took the Ge towel and soaked it in a basin.
Actually, when she told Gao Hao that Gao Yang was sick and weak, it was not just rhetoric.
First he fell into the water, then he was poisoned, and then he fell ill several times, but each time he was not completely healed.
Since he sat on the throne, she has never heard any words of fear from him. Instead, she has tried her best to be the emperor, but no matter how mature she pretends to be, he is still just a human being after all. Seven-year-old child.
Faced with the machinations and deceitfulness of the former harem, how can we not be frightened and worried?
If things go on like this, how can the body really get better?
Liang Huan sighed and pulled down the quilt on Gao Yang.
Just as she was about to untie his shirt, a hot hand grabbed her wrist and stopped her next move.
Liang Huan raised his eyes and met a pair of red eyes covered with moisture.
Gao Yang looked away shyly and said angrily: "Go away, don't touch me."
His voice was hoarse, like sandpaper across stone.
Liang Huan knew that he was angry and resented himself.
"You have a fever. If you don't cool down, there are only two consequences. Either your brain will be burned out, or your life will be burned out."
Gao Yang paused and said bitterly: " I don’t need you to take care of me.”
Liang Han let go of his hand, pondered for a moment, and nodded at him: “That’s okay, but there is no one else here now. If you don’t want me to take care of it, then only Gu Ya will be left. I’ll let him wipe it for you later.”
Gao Yang's face froze, and his groggy brain kept searching for memories about this person.
He thought about it for a long time before he remembered this palace maid named Gu Ya.
I don’t remember what he looked like at all. I just remember that he lowered his head when he spoke and his voice was as low as a mosquito’s chirp.
As soon as she raised her head to reply, her tongue seemed to be tied up.
I didn’t even dare to look at him.
He is an emperor, not a dragon.
Let her wipe you?
Forget it then.
Gao Yang raised his eyes: "What about...Qian Ming?"
Liang Huan also looked at him: "We are imprisoned in Hanguang Palace now, if Gu Ya is not timid , Gao Hao will definitely not leave us alone.”
When Liang Huan saw that he stopped talking and turned his head away from her, she helped him unbutton his clothes again.
When the hot skin came into contact with the hot and humid Ge towel, Gao Yang couldn't help but wince.
Under her gentle wipe, his body became as stiff as a brick.
Gao Yang closed his eyes and gritted his teeth: "I'm no longer...the emperor, why do you still care about me?"
Liang Han pursed her lips: "Win for me. What a good reputation.”
