No Worries about Food and Medicine

Chapter 131: milk tea

Views:

Min Xuefei needed to calm down to recuperate, so the drainage tube couldn't be removed for a while. The son of heaven is the king of a country, and there is absolutely no reason to waste court affairs for his ministers.

The next day, the Son of Heaven visited Min Ji in person at the Siqi Academy. It's just that although he heard people around him briefly talk about the little doctor's treatment method, he didn't really pay much attention to it. Only when he saw it in person, did he feel that it was really shocking, and it was definitely not a method that ordinary people could think of, so he couldn't help but look at him differently. .

After awarding the rewards that day, the emperor set off to return to Beijing, but he allowed Min Ji to temporarily live in the Regu Palace until he recovered from his injuries, and left a team of eunuchs and maids at his command. This is already a great honor to the Min family, even if Min Ji's old son Min Xiang was present, he would have to kowtow to thank him and shout long live, Min Ji can't move now, so this courtesy will be dispensed with.

Min Ji was the only one left in such a big Regu Palace. Although he wasn't a very lively person at first, he couldn't do anything while lying on the sickbed. .

But fortunately, Ji Hong and Yu Jinnian are still with him.

only…

Min Xuefei pursed her lips, and turned her head to look at the certain eunuch who was sitting on the footbed in front of the bed, buzzing like a fly and reading his scripts continuously. After he had read some biography of Liu Niang, he read a book about Yin and Yang. It talks about a dilapidated haunted house, where women are heard crying day and night inside the walls. There is a butcher who does not believe in ghosts and evil spirits. He stays here in the middle of the night and sees a beautiful woman dressing up in front of the mirror. If you want to refuse or welcome, you will become adulterous accordingly... It is precisely the fragrant curtain, the red shirt and green socks, exploring the stamens and jade branches, singing and singing, so happy.

What kind of yin and yang legacy is this, this is a pornographic book!

Just as he was about to reprimand him, Lian Zhi turned a page and continued to preach: "I heard a crack, and the candle went out. The butcher was deeply in love, when he suddenly heard a foul smell, the window opened and the moon was full. The room was full, but I saw—"

Min Xuefei thought: "What did you see?"

Lian Zhi's expression sank, he closed the book and threw it aside: "I won't read it anymore."

The more he was like this, the more exciting the future would be. Min Xuefei followed up and asked: "The moon filled the room, what did you see? Why didn't you read it?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Min Xuefei reached for the book by himself. Lian Zhi pressed down the book with a slap, and said reluctantly: "Don't read it either, you'll have nightmares if you read it."

Is he afraid of having nightmares

This reason is a bit absurd, Min Xuefei laughed and said: "Young prisoner of the dignified Sigongtai company, with a few catties of human blood on his hands, how many people look up to you, are you afraid of having nightmares?"

Lian Zhi looked back at him, let go, turned his face away again, choked him back and said, "Who is not afraid of nightmares, Mr. Min will always criticize me as a slave, don't you have blood from your colleagues on your own hands? Don't you?" Are you having nightmares?"

"..."

He replied so bluntly, which Min Xuefei could have thought of long ago. After all, in the past few years, the two faced each other tit for tat, and occasionally met each other while walking in the palace, and they never had a good word. When Wan Rui, a Hanlin scholar, was involved in the case, Lian Zhi had just been promoted to the position of a young prison officer. He was dressed in biqing pleated clothes with two or three ribbons around his waist, and camellias and peony embroidered on the skirt pleats. A group of young eunuchs with low brows and pleasing eyes came to announce the decree arrogantly, saw him present, and mocked him for "not knowing how to praise".

An ordinary servant, let alone a camellia embroidered with large flowers, even a fingertip-sized flower patched on his clothes, is considered trespassing, and he will be pulled out and killed with a stick. Embroidery and patching according to one's own preferences on clothing is a favor that only high-status eunuchs can enjoy, and it is a way for this group of eunuchs to publicize their power. And the higher the level, the more arrogant and extravagant. When it comes to the great eunuch Feng Jian, he doesn't pay much attention to the low-ranking officials in the previous dynasty. It seems that he has lost his roots and has to find something from other places.

But when Min Xuefei first met Lianzhi, he was not like this.

The teenage eunuch was very introverted at a young age. He lowered his head when he saw everyone, and he was gentle and kind to everyone. At that time, he had already gained some status in the palace. It is high, at least there are some eunuchs under his command. And he is neither humble nor arrogant, he speaks slowly and softly, Min Xuefei doesn't know what he relies on to command the people below him, with his pair of innocent blinking peach blossom eyes

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, Lian Zhi's temperament changed suddenly, just like other eunuchs, he became a man of duplicity and profit-seeking.

Min Xuefei's eyes fell on Lianzhi's collar embroidered with Xiaomei, thinking how this man is so good at embroidering some flowers and plants on his clothes, one branch or two is nothing more than four or five kinds of flowers and plants all over his body It's not easy to embroider on the clothes, so I stuff them on the middle clothes, just like a peacock. He looked away and murmured: "When we first met, you were not so eloquent, nor did you flatter Feng Jian like this."

Lian Zhi suddenly turned her head and looked at him fixedly.

Min Xuefei thought that he couldn't remember such a long time ago, so he laughed at himself: "That's right, how can even the young supervisor remember a small person like me who can't go to court? I'm afraid he has forgotten the matter of picking plums and giving them away in Huanfu Palace." It's clean."

The name of Huanfu Palace is auspicious, but it is actually an abandoned palace located in a corner, and no one has set foot in it all year round. That night, Min Xuefei also walked casually after the palace banquet, so he walked to Huanfu Palace while taking advantage of the smell of alcohol. . The palace courtyard was overgrown with withered and yellow weeds, and the falling snow had formed inch-high hard ice. It was not the creaking sound of snow cotton under the feet, but the rustling sound of broken ice, making it even more desolate.

There are a few plum trees in the palace that were planted in unknown years and generations. Because no one took care of them, the branches were tangled, but the red plums on the branches were very pleasing, like cinnabar falling on white paper. And what was even more intriguing was a young man in a gray cloak between Merlin, holding a bone, staring at him in horror, turning his head to run away as if frightened.

Min Xuefei was so drunk that he insisted on grabbing him and asking what his name was.

"Lianzhi."

The two plum trees are close to each other, and their branches are intertwined, and they are gradually entangled together, connecting branches and branches, and they are all in one branch. After hearing the name, Min Xuefei couldn't help being touched by the scene, and didn't know whether he was catching a human or a ghost, so he said with a drunken smile: "There are immortals among plum blossoms!"

Lian Zhi really looked like a plum fairy, he stuffed the plum branch he had just broken off into his hand, and disappeared around the palace wall in a blink of an eye.

After a long time later, Min Xuefei realized that what he saw that day was not some Meixian, but just an unremarkable little eunuch in the palace. Speaking of this, it's not that he never forgets that person that day, it's just that it's a pity that such a clear and bright young man is actually an eunuch.

"Only Huanfu Palace?" Lian Zhi asked.

Min Xuefei frowned: "What else?"

"..." Lian Zhi bent down to pick up the book of ghost stories on the ground, and flipped through it casually. Min Xuefei thought he was going to read it, but with a backhand, he smeared the unfolded book on his face, "Read it for yourself!"

Min Xuefei's nose was almost crushed by him, and he really didn't understand what was wrong with him, he turned his face when he said it, after thinking about it, eunuchs are probably like this, and it is normal for him to turn his face and satirize people at every turn. Soon he was no longer confused, but stared at him for a while, and asked another question: "Your Majesty and Feng Jian have both gone back, why are you still here? Also, why do you always sit at my feet? On the couch, is there gold or silver there?"

Lian Zhi froze when asked, stood up abruptly, and muttered: "Do you think your place is very good..."

He was about to leave, but it happened that Yu Jinnian pushed the door in while talking with Ji Hong, and by coincidence, he blocked him, and Lian Zhi flashed back and forth several times, always inseparable from Yu Jinnian, so he had to step back and stand When you get to the door, let them in first.

Seeing his unhappy face, Yu Jinnian knew that these two people must be pinching each other again, so he didn't want to say more, so he just brought in a medical tray to change the dressing for Min Xuefei's wound. And Ji Hong has been busy dealing with the mess left by Min Ji these few days. When the emperor returns to court, he will have free time to come over to visit carefully.

Fortunately, Second Master Min was extremely lucky. Although he was shot by an arrow for no reason, it was only a serious injury to his vitality. He did not suffer from sepsis and other diseases that are difficult to treat at the moment. The blood in his chest is also gradually draining away. In two days, the tube was pulled out, and he was able to get out of bed and move around.

Yu Jinnian took off the bandage on the wound, and also gently wiped the surrounding area with distilled water. When he carefully observed the seam, he suddenly discovered something that he hadn't paid attention to before—the ordinary arrow wounds are different according to the shape of the arrow cluster. The shape of the wound is also different, but whether it is an awl arrow or a swallowtail arrow, most of the wounds are sutured with a single thread, but Min Xuefei's arrow wound has a few stitches branching out diagonally.

This shows that the arrow that shot him must have been unusual, when it was a three-edged or four-edged barbed blood-grooved arrow, so that when Min Xuefei pulled out the arrow hastily, it cut through the flesh again. Yu Jinnian had actually seen such an arrow once.

Ji Hong leaned closer to watch with him, and seemed to have discovered this doubt, but his face was not as shocked as he was.

Yu Jinnian ran out of the room in a jerk, called Lian Zhi who was about to leave, and asked, "Master Lian, do you still have the arrow that Mr. Min shot?"

Lian Zhi hurriedly said: "Yes, there is. I was afraid that the arrow would be poisoned, so I asked someone to find it. I asked them to get it... But what does Mr. Xiao want that thing for?"

Yu Jinnian pondered, "There is something I want to confirm."

In the room, Ji Hong sat by the bed, picked up a few volumes of storybooks that fell on the floor, smoothed the creases on them, and chatted with Min Ji: "You said you wanted to see me when you were in danger, but what did you say? Do you want to stay, or do you... see the archer, but it's inconvenient to tell others?"

"That's exactly what I want to tell you," Min Xuefei looked out the window and said in a low voice, "It's definitely not ordinary bandits, even if there are a few bandits, there must be other people mixed in. Under the flurry of arrows, there are a few people with extraordinary skills, not like ordinary bandits." He sighed angrily, "It's a pity that I couldn't catch them, and I didn't have any evidence in my hand, so it would be a shock, so I didn't Report it, I want to discuss it with you first."

Then Min Xuefei heard what Yu Jinnian said about the arrow, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with the arrow?"

Ji Hong said: "When you pulled out the arrow, didn't you pay attention to the shape of the arrow?"

Min Xuefei said angrily: "My life is almost gone, who has the leisure to look at the arrows."

As the two talked, Lianzhi's people had already taken the arrow back and handed it over to Yu Jinnian. Yu Jinnian picked it up and glanced at it, then suddenly stopped, thinking out of his mind for a moment——

Could it be him!

The thumb pressing on the sharp edge of the arrow was pressed with a shallow white mark, and the blood color of the fingertips also faded. Lianzhi called him repeatedly, and then called his three souls and seven souls back. Yu Jinnian raised his head, looked around, and suddenly mentioned someone who had nothing to do with this matter: "Young Prison Lian, since he is the Royal Spring Lie, I heard that the children of the aristocratic family and the princes and nobles will show off their demeanor, why didn't the King of Yue come?"

Hearing his question, Ji Hong also came over, took the arrow in the young man's hand and looked at it, his face darkened immediately.

Sure enough, the cluster of arrows was four-sided with barbs and blood grooves. Because it was stained with blood and mud, half of the stump was black and red. Scrape off the outer layer of mud scab, and you can see the silvery clusters of arrows below it, and there is a clanging sound when knocked. This kind of sharp arrow is specially made, and the craftsmanship is extremely complicated. It is not something that ordinary bandits and bandits can afford.

Lian Zhi didn't know how Yu Jinnian knew that Yan Chang wasn't here, let alone that there was still some entanglement between him and Yan Chang. However, Yan Chang is a relative of the emperor after all, so Yu Li shouldn't have talked about it with such an ordinary commoner as Yu Jinnian, so he turned his head to look at Ji Hong, and Ji Hong nodded, and then he said: "King Yue... means dyeing clothes before leaving. I had a cold and was seriously ill. I really couldn't come, so I asked His Majesty for leave..."

"Fart!" Yu Jinnian scolded in a low voice, "Heavily sick? Still have the time to come to my shop and make trouble in my shop?!"

Ji Hong waved his hand, and Lian Zhi retreated.

"Have you seen it?" He looked at the boy.

Yu Jinnian nodded, turned his head to look at the broken arrow in Ji Hong's hand, and said: "In Yan Chang's secret room, the one that fell from among the sundries unintentionally was rusty, but it is not as good as this arrow." Ninety percent of them are similar, do you think..."

"Young Prison Lian, please take care of Xue Fei for a while longer." Ji Hong said, took Yu Jinnian's hand, brought him back to the Nuan Pavilion next door, and closed the door.

Lianzhi walked back awkwardly, arrived at Min Xuefei's bed, and was about to sit down on his couch as usual, when suddenly remembered what he had just been laughed at, and immediately stood upright, with the hand at his side lightly clutching the hem of the skirt. He didn't know where to sit, but when he looked down and saw Min Ji's boots were crooked, he bent over to put them on—with a jingling sound, something fell out of his clothes, one with a line drawn on it. A small piece of wood, and a veil with some stains on one side.

When Min Xuefei saw the handkerchief, he immediately said in embarrassment: "That thing, that thing, why haven't you thrown it away yet!"

Lianzhi's ears were so stuffy, he picked up the piece of wood without saying a word, and stuffed it back into his clothes. No matter what Ren Min Xuefei said, he just refused to take it out.

At that time, I heard an exclamation from the Nuan Pavilion: "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

The voice sounded like that of the young man, and the two looked at the same time, but they could only see a vague shadow on the window paper of the Nuan Pavilion, and they didn't know what the two were doing inside. Lian Zhi hesitated for a moment, and was about to go to have a look, when he heard several angry curses erupting inside, which gradually subsided, and only heard a few words from Ji Hong from time to time, but he didn't know what to say specifically. Can't hear clearly.

"..."

Ji Hong fumbled for the silk from his sleeve pocket, but didn't touch it, so he had to wipe the boy's eyes with his fingers. He just felt some moisture under his fingers, but there were no real tears, but his heart was lifted up, hanging in the air. In mid-air, acid was squeezed out by an invisible hand and corroded drip by tick. The boy himself hadn't shed any tears, but his eyes were reddened by Ji Honglueliang's hand.

Holding the broken arrow in his hands, Yu Jinnian muttered, "You didn't tell me about such a big thing."

What he said was that similar clusters of arrows were found in the fire scene that day, but Ji Hong suppressed this matter and did not mention it to Yu Jinnian.

"I've been investigating, and then I found Jing Zhong. He also sent me a secret message, but only after I got some clues, the clue was broken, and Jing Zhong disappeared again, so I had to stop. I didn't talk to you Said, because this matter is not as simple as a bowl of noodle shop catching fire, and I don’t want to make you happy until you have conclusive evidence.” Ji Hong sat down and watched him fiddling with the arrow, “Who knew so Coincidentally, you also saw this arrow in Yue Wang's mansion."

Yu Jinnian comforted himself and said: "So my suffering is not for nothing, is it? At least I have some clues to come back. Yan Chang, Yan Chang..." He stood up, circling around in a murmur, "How could it be him, It turned out to be him..."

"Whether it's him or not is still unclear." Ji Hongdao, "Remember, you can't tell others about this."

Yu Jinnian nodded, naturally listening to him in everything, but the hatred for Yan Chang in his heart added another layer.

The Hot Valley Palace could not stay for a long time, so after the drainage tube between Min Xuefei's ribs was removed, and after two days of recuperation, everyone drove back to Beijing. Because of the "Bandit" incident before, both Ji Min's family dispatched their own guards to protect them in secret. Yu Jinnian and Ji Hong were in the same car, and Min Xuefei still needed someone to take care of him, so he could only ride with Lian Zhi .

When I went back, it was already Lixia, the shade of the trees outside the city was whirling, the insects and birds were contending, and the trees beside the road had small red grains growing out of the branches, which were dotted among the green leaves and brown branches. Although they were inedible, they were delicious. is good looking. Normally, Yu Jinnian should have been attracted, but ever since he knew the clue of the arrow cluster, his complexion has not been very good, and he is always in a trance from time to time.

During the bumps, Ji Hong sighed softly, rubbed the young man's back, like a cat smoothing his hands: "It's okay to have such a hard time sleeping and eating, I wouldn't have told you if I knew about it."

Yu Jinnian was depressed for a while, and gradually became drowsy from being shaken by the carriages and horses. He said slowly, "I just can't figure out why this person has such a deep hatred for you, and he insists on getting rid of you before he is quick, even at the expense of several innocent lives? What is the reason for him this time, could it be that he wants to-" Thinking deeply, he felt a chill in the back of his neck, even though he was not a person who was afraid of imperial power in essence, he was still trembling because of this imagining.

"It's not because you have a grudge against someone that you will hurt someone. Sometimes, it's just because that person blocks his way." Ji Hong shook his head, reached out to grab the young man's shoulder, and held him in his arms Inside, she lowered her head and kissed the top of his hair, then cupped his face again, kissed his lips delicately and comfortingly, and then let him doze off on her shoulder.

"It's okay, don't worry, I won't let go of anyone who shouldn't be let go." Ji Hong squinted his eyes, and there was a chill in his words, but the chill wasn't directed at the boy, so he said softly Patting the boy's arrowhead, he coaxed patiently, "Sleep, I'll watch over you."

Yu Jinnian closed his eyes and listened to the sound of the wheels rolling on the gravel. His heart, which had been noisy for the past few days, found peace and tranquility in Ji Hong's arms. Quietly no longer speak.

Resting in a tea shed at noon, the boss is an old couple with simple pots and pans, and they only do some small businesses. Although the few present except Yu Jinnian were indeed "adults" with great power, but in this kind of wilderness, no one was willing to put on such a false and useless air.

There was no one in the group who could cook meals, so the old couple naturally couldn't cook the dishes that the children of the noble family could eat. Yu Jinnian had expected this a long time ago, so he got up early in the morning and cooked a sumptuous meal The dishes are packaged in food boxes. At this time, you only need to take them out and heat them on the earthen stove to eat. All the dishes he cooks are long-lasting, even if they are cold and reheated, they won't affect the appearance too much.

Lian Zhi supported the awkward Min Xuefei down, picked the nearest table and chair and sat down, his wounds had not fully healed, and his ribs could be pulled by the movement of his hand holding the chopsticks, so he trembled slightly when picking up the dishes, often Half of the dishes with one chopstick will always fall down in the end. The second son of Min was used to smooth sailing, and now he couldn't even use chopsticks well, and a lot of shredded vegetables were spilled on the table in front of him, which was very rude.

Min Xuefei looked slightly embarrassed, he didn't know whether to lift the chopsticks holding the vegetables in his hands, but he saw half a pancake held in front of his face, and the vegetables that slipped from between his chopsticks fell on the pancakes, and were rolled up by sticks. Put it in your mouth and chew.

Some of the eunuchs who accompanied the team were Lian Zhi's trusted eunuchs. Seeing him like this, his mouth would open wide in horror, and he would stretch himself into a circle. Who can believe this!

Even Min Xuefei stared at him blankly, and said after a long while: "You..." After a long while, you couldn't figure out what you wanted to say, your tongue was wrapped in your mouth for a long time, but you couldn't say it, you just stopped him in a low voice He said, "Don't eat this, it's stained with my chopsticks, get a new one."

Lian Zhi smiled and said nothing, but he did not pick up the pancakes anymore, but put an empty teacup in front of his face. Min Xuefei finally breathed a sigh of relief, and ate food in silence, but turned his head to look at Lian Zhi next to him from time to time, saw him eating a small pancake, and closed his mouth after taking a few mouthfuls of vegetarian food, thinking that his appetite was too small, How can you be full after just a few mouthfuls? After thinking too much, I suddenly woke up—whether he is full or not is none of my business!

But it's really none of his business.

Because Min Xuefei tried to be brave and didn't ask others to wait on him, it took a lot of time to settle this meal. When he was full, he just put down his chopsticks to wipe his mouth, but suddenly his eyes flickered, and a hand stretched out from the side, took the tea bowl he was receiving the food from, and took the leftovers from the plate into his stomach up.

Those wet and red lips opened and closed, Min Xuefei stared at him dumbfounded: "... What kind of hobby are you doing?"

Lian Zhi kept his face down and refused to say much. After being stared at by Min Xuefei for a long time, he said angrily: "Take it as my medicine!"

Min Xuefei was even more confused, medicine? What medicine

The two failed to discuss this issue in depth. First, Lian Zhi turned his head away and ignored no one, and second, there was a burst of milky fragrance from the earthen stove in the tea shed. Everyone couldn't help but be attracted by the fragrance, Duan Ming's friends moved closer to have a look.

There was a teapot hanging on the earthen stove, and the milky aroma came from the tea stove. When the raw milk boiled, Yu Jinnian lifted the lid, grabbed a handful of tea leaves from his pocket, threw them in, and slowly stirred them with chopsticks. It didn't take long, and besides the milk fragrance, there was a little tea fragrance. Everyone had just eaten their food, and they were thirsty, and they couldn't help swallowing when they smelled the aroma of milk tea.

After cooking for half a stick of incense, Yu Jinnian took two more pieces of sugar and put them in to melt.

Seeing his actions, Ji Hong suddenly felt a pain in his head, and took half a step back—the incident of a bowl of sweet custard in Xin'an County is still vivid in his memory, and he still dare not forget it, but now he has a whim and made a sweet milk tea

Who taught him these inexplicable recipes

Traditional milk tea is originally eaten in the north. Because the milk in the north is mostly fresh goat milk, it will inevitably have a smell. The milk tea that comes is very thick and rich in taste. It's not that Yu Jinnian didn't know about it, he just forgot about it. After all, in his previous life, he drank pearl milk tea the most.

Thinking of this, Yu Jinnian began to wonder if he could try to make some "pearls" when he went back.

Seeing him put the candy, several people who were eager to try it just shrank back.

"A bowl of them all?" After saccharification, Yu Jinnian poured out a bowl by himself, drank it with relish, and even his lips were stained with milk, he stuck out his tongue and licked it, shouted happily, and went to drink the second Two bowls. Everyone hesitated for a while, but they still couldn't resist the temptation. They went over to try the drink one after another. Although the taste was a bit strange, the more they drank, the more delicious it became.

Holding the bowl, Yu Jinnian coaxed Ji Hong to take a few sips too.

Seeing this, Lian Zhi went over and brought back a bowl, and pushed it to Min Xuefei: "Will you try it?"

Min Xuefei felt that this person was too inexplicable, why did he treat him so well

Before he could figure out why, the convoy was soon on the road again.

Because of the wounded second son of the Min family, the car couldn't go too fast, so it took a whole day to enter the city gate until midnight. Because the people in the car were either the sons of Li Guogong, the sons of the prime minister, or a popular little official in the palace, the gatekeepers didn't dare to embarrass them, so they immediately opened half of the city gate to let them go.

The closer to the capital city, the smoother the road was. Min Xuefei hadn't recovered his vitality, and he was already in a state of depression, and he had been thinking wildly for a while on the way, so he couldn't hold on when it was just dark, and fell asleep in the car. Lian Zhi looked at him from the side, gently turned him over, let him sleep comfortably on her lap, and just looked down at him all the way.

The carriage slowly passed through the streets of Beijing, and when it reached East Cross Street, Ji Hong's carriage parted ways with them and went in the direction of Jin Youting. Since both Yu Jinnian and Min Ji were sleeping soundly, Lian Zhi was separated by the carriage and sedan chair. Lian greeted Ji Hong from a distance, but did not make a sound, and then escorted Min Ji back to the prime minister's mansion.

Lian Zhi's index finger gently wrapped around the man's ear, his gaze gradually changed from tenderness to attachment, he wanted the coachman to slow down, slow down... He stuck his finger bones to the wall of the car, did he not knock it down, and let the car and horse run smoothly? He quickly drove to the Prime Minister's Mansion and stopped in front of the gate of Min's house.

Min Xuefei didn't even know about this, he was in a dream, and for some reason, he dreamed about something from his childhood—

How young is it, about ten years old. Min's house had strict family education. Although he was only ten years old, he was taught by the nuns that he was already a young adult and he was not allowed to mess around in the future. After days and nights, he was finally taken by his father to the palace to attend the palace banquet. At that time in early spring, the weather was not good, and when they stepped into the palace gate with their front feet, it was raining heavily with their back feet.

This was his first time entering the palace, so he couldn't help being excited and nervous, but the more he was like this, the more nervous he became, and he got separated from the servant who was leading the way in the heavy rain.

Miyagi was huge, he held an umbrella by himself, and walked aimlessly.

Min Xuefei frowned, and suddenly couldn't remember how he went back in the end, let alone where the umbrella went, because he had a high fever after going back, and he was ill for a month before he fully recovered. Things are so blurry that I can't remember clearly.

Why is it so sudden, dreaming about something so long ago...

Outside the curtain, the concierge of the Min family had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing that the curtain had not been opened, he didn't dare to go up and make trouble, so he had to wait below with his hands down, and called twice in a low voice: "Second Young Master, Got home."

Home, what a beautiful word.

Lian Zhi lowered her eyebrows, as if she didn't hear the sound from outside, she just stared blankly at the man in her arms, as if she wanted to take his bones, skin, flesh and blood, every inch of his body, every strand of hair, One stroke at a time engraved in my heart. He knew that he was a puddle of mud in the swamp, no matter how exquisite and gorgeous clothes he decorated, he was only dirty in his bones.

There is nothing wrong with what the world said, these eunuchs entered the mud pool in the palace, and some of them are innocent.

But Min Ji is different, he is the bright pearl in the sky, the bright moon held up by the stars.

The difference between cloud and mud is nothing more than this.

Lian Zhi curled the corners of his mouth silently, "Half Moon in the Hot Valley Palace" is already the best he can do, if he doesn't stop, it's just covetousness. He was about to raise his hand to shake Min Ji, wanting to wake him up, but the moment his finger fell, he felt paranoid for no reason, a kind of reluctance and unwillingness to give up—since there will be no more intersections in the future, why? Don't steal something while he is asleep, so that in the dim life of the next few decades, a little bit of moonlight can shine in.

Just steal a little, just a little.

He was dizzy, his head was pounded by an indistinct hot blood, his heart was like a thunderous drum, and he slowly bent down.

Seeing those pale crimson thin lips close in front of her eyes, Lian Zhi felt timid, after all, she didn't fall straight down, but turned halfway, only touching the corners of her mouth a little. He was trembling, and even his breathing was dazzled, thinking that it would be all right, this is a secret that belongs to him alone, and it is a treasure enough for him to relive for a lifetime. In this lifetime, Min Xuefei will never know that she once stole one of his—

Lian Zhi turned his gaze, a pair of pitch-black pupils suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, he was startled, the hot blood in his brain was like when it came surging, and went away with the temperature of the whole body, from hair to Every inch of the toes is as cold and stiff as the twelfth lunar month. It was only when his reason returned to his cage that he realized the desolation, his whole body seemed to collapse, and he repeatedly questioned himself, why he couldn't help it, why did he insist on overstepping

Lianzhi, Lianzhi, what should I do now!

The moment Min Xuefei woke up, he felt a heat on his mouth, but he didn't realize what it was for a while. After waking up, he understood. Before he could speak, he just glanced at him briefly. His eyes were red, and he bit his lower lip so hard that his skin was almost bleeding.

"you-"

As soon as he opened his mouth, before he could utter a word, Lian Zhi got up abruptly, not even caring that Min Xuefei was still lying on his lap, like a thief who had violated the prohibition, he covered his ears and walked out of his carriage. Up and down and fled.

Min Xuefei knocked her chin, bit her tongue, and was overturned by someone on the carriage board, her whole body was in terrific pain, she looked up at the scenery outside the curtain, the head and feet of the person in her vision looked like the Huanfu Palace back then, He staggered and disappeared into the depths of the street, never to be seen again.

"I haven't said anything yet, what are you running for..." Min Xuefei muttered dizzily.
