That night, Bai Nanyu came to Shen Nianshu again. The moonlight shines on the window lattice, reflecting variegatedly on her peaceful face, as if she has been covered with a layer of silver gauze.
He opened the door softly, fearing to break the peaceful atmosphere.
Shen Nianshu was flipping through an ancient book in front of the case, with concentration on her brows.
Bai Nanyu stood quietly behind her, watching her slender fingers gently glide across the pages of the book, feeling an indescribable tenderness well up in his heart.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm his rapid heartbeat, but accidentally made a small sound. Shen Nianshu turned around and looked at each other, with complex lights shining in their eyes.
Shen Nianshu raised her head in surprise, and the ancient book in her hand accidentally slipped and landed lightly on the table.
She hurriedly stood up and saluted, with an imperceptible tremor in her voice, "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
Bai Nanyu stepped forward and gently helped her up. His eyes were deep and gentle, "I just want to see you and don't want to disturb your study."
He looked around. The study was simply and elegantly decorated, filled with the aroma of books, and complemented Shen Nianshu's temperament.
The moonlight shines through the window lattice and shines on the two of them, as if covering them with a hazy halo.
Bai Nanyu lowered his head and looked at Shen Nianshu closely. Her eyes were as clear as water and there was a faint blush on her face.
His heart moved, and he couldn't help but reach out his hand to touch her cheek.
Shen Nianshu was startled by this sudden move. She took a step back slightly, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.
Under the moonlight, her figure looked a little thin, like a lily swaying in the wind.
Bai Nanyu 's hand was hanging in the air. He looked at Shen Nianshu's avoidant eyes, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.
He knew he shouldn't be so abrupt, but he couldn't control his desire for her.
Shen Nianshu lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Bai Nanyu 's eyes. Her heart was beating so fast that it seemed to jump out of her chest.
She knew she should stay calm, but Bai Nanyu 's breath and temperature made her feel at a loss.
There was silence in the study, except for the sound of insects outside the window and the breeze blowing through the window lattice. Bai Nanyu slowly retracted his hand, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, he just stood there quietly, looking at Shen Nianshu.
Suddenly, a gust of wind roared, breaking the tranquility of the study. Dark clouds covered the bright moonlight, and the study suddenly became dark. Immediately afterwards, heavy raindrops hit the window lattice violently, making a crackling sound.
Shen Nianshu was so frightened by this sudden change that her face turned pale. She clutched her sleeves tightly and her body trembled involuntarily.
Bai Nanyu quickly stepped forward, hugged her tightly behind him, and used his broad chest to shield her from the wind and rain.
In the violent storm, the door and window of the study room were blown loudly, as if they would break at any time.
The strong wind carried the raindrops, violently hitting the study door and windows, making bursts of harsh sounds. In the study, Shen Nianshu nestled tightly in Bai Nanyu 's arms, her heartbeat speeding up with the rhythm of the wind and rain.
Bai Nanyu used his body to build a solid barrier for her, trying his best to isolate her from the violent storm outside.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and the wooden door of the study room was blown open by the strong wind, and a gust of cold wind mixed with raindrops instantly poured into the house.
Shen Nianshu exclaimed and subconsciously tightened her body.
He looked down at Shen Nianshu in his arms, his eyes full of worry.
The study room was in a mess, the books on the bookshelf were blown to pieces, and the table was scattered with ancient books and papers that were wet by wind and rain.
The entire house has not been inhabited for many years and is already dilapidated. Now it looks even more shaky under the raging wind and rain.
The strong wind was still raging, and the study was already a mess.
Suddenly, with a loud noise, a rotten pillar collapsed under the ravages of wind and rain, and hit the two of them straight.
Panic flashed in Shen Nianshu's eyes, and she pushed Bai Nanyu away almost instinctively , while dodging herself.
But the pillar fell so fast that she couldn't avoid it, so she could only turn as far as possible to let the pillar pass by her side.
Bai Nanyu was pushed away, he immediately reacted and wanted to protect Shen Nianshu again, but it was too late.
He watched helplessly as the pillar fell towards Shen Nianshu.
Just when the pillar was about to hit Shen Nianshu, Bai Nanyu rushed forward and pushed her away with all his strength.
"Bang!" There was a loud noise, and the pillar hit the ground hard, stirring up a cloud of dust.
She only felt a sharp pain coming from her back, and she lost consciousness instantly.
Bai Nanyu ignored the pain in his body and quickly got up and rushed towards Shen Nianshu. He saw that her face was pale and her eyes were closed, and a strong fear surged in his heart.
"Shu'er!" He called her name anxiously, but Shen Nianshu didn't respond.
The wind roared and raindrops fell, but Bai Nanyu only had Shen Nianshu's safety in his heart.
He picked up Shen Nianshu and walked hard out of the study, stepping on the messy pages and fallen pillars.
Every step seemed extremely heavy, as if a thousand pounds of weight were weighing on his heart.
His face was covered with rain, but he had no time to care. He just held Shen Nianshu tightly, fearing that she would be hurt in the slightest.
In the wind and rain, his figure became more determined and taller. In his eyes, there was only the front, the only place where Shen Nianshu could be cured.
The rain wet his clothes and flowed down his face, intertwining with sweat to form streaks of water.
Because Bai Nanyu came to Leng Palace in the middle of the night, he didn't bring many people with him. Only Eunuch Fu was guarding the door of Leng Palace.
Bai Nanyu rushed out of the study with Shen Nianshu in his arms, Eunuch Fu was stunned.
In the violent storm, his figure looked so decisive and firm, as if nothing in the world could stop him from moving forward.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Shu is a useless concubine. I'm afraid it's against the rules..." Eunuch Fu said in a trembling voice, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Bai Nanyu .
"Rules? I am the rule. From today on, she is not..." Bai Nanyu 's voice was cold and firm. He hugged Shen Nianshu and walked towards the palace gate step by step.
When Eunuch Fu saw this, he didn't dare to say anything more. He quickly held up an oil-paper umbrella and followed quickly.
In the wind and rain, Bai Nanyu 's steps were firm and powerful, and all he could see was Shen Nianshu in his arms. Eunuch Fu held an umbrella and tried his best to shield the two of them from the wind and rain, but the wind howled and the raindrops still hit them mercilessly.
The carriage outside the palace gate was already ready. Bai Nanyu got into the carriage with Shen Nianshu in his arms and ordered the carriage driver to go to the Imperial Hospital as quickly as possible.
The carriage was speeding through the wind and rain, and the wheels rolled through the accumulated water, causing splashes of water. In the carriage, Bai Nanyu hugged Shen Nianshu tightly, using his own body temperature to dispel the cold in her.
His eyes were full of worry and anxiety, and he kept calling Shen Nianshu's name, hoping that she would wake up as soon as possible.
