Holding Her In His Arms

The soldier taking care of her brought her medicine and breakfast as usual.

After eating her food and taking her medicine, she no longer felt as weak as she did yesterday, and she wanted to go out for a walk.

The Empress used to say that it was bad to be cooped up all day indoors, and even a sick person should go out for a walk so that they could recover faster.

Chu Jiu stroked her long hair which fell past her shoulders, then got up to find a comb so she could put her hair up. However, after searching the whole tent to no avail, she eventually gave up.

Draping an outer garment over her shoulders, she headed outside.

The sunlight instantly dazzled her, making her narrow her eyes.

After having stayed in the tent for a few days, she was a little unused to the sunlight outside.

When her eyes had finally gotten used to the brightness, she shuffled outside slowly.

The frontier was indeed different from other places.
