Although he really wanted to stay in the study and continue to deal with the case, but Zhao Yue looked too fierce, so Wen Liunian finally compromised, put down the chicken legs and wiped his hands, "Then I'll go back to sleep for a while."
"Why do you eat so little?" Zhao Yue frowned, not even eating a chicken leg.
Wen Liunian said honestly, "I have no appetite."
"Eat even if you don't have an appetite." Zhao Dadang showed his bandit temperament just right.
"Too oily." Wen Liunian said.
Zhao Yue said, "It takes a little oil to grow flesh."
Wen Liunian's eyes were filled with "It's too oily, I just don't want to eat it, don't want to eat it, don't want to eat it, don't want to eat it, don't want to eat it".
Zhao Yue had no choice but to be patient, "Then what do you want to eat?"
Wen Liunian asked, "Do I have to eat it?"
Zhao Yue said, "Yes!"
Wen Liunian could only say, "The porridge."
Zhao Yue turned back to Shangfu.
There are so many problems with nerds, and they are so picky when they have a meal.
There happened to be leftover porridge from the morning in the kitchen. Zhao Yue warmed up a bowl and put it in the food box. He stopped before going out and went back to add a plate of sour and refreshing pickles.
Lu Zhui sighed in the dark, "I never thought that the head of the family could be so considerate."
The dark guards covered his mouth one after another, don't talk, we still have to watch the excitement
Zhao Yue naturally knew that someone was watching, but he didn't bother to answer. Carrying the food box back to the government office study and opening the door, he saw Wen Liunian quickly pushing the files aside.
"Look again?!" Zhao Yue glared at him.
Wen Liunian looked innocently, "I'll just clean it up."
Zhao Yue simply put away everything on the table, "Eat!"
Wen Liunian obediently drank the porridge.
That's about the same... Zhao Yue felt a little better.
After eating a large bowl of porridge, his body immediately warmed up, but he also felt sleepy, so he couldn't help but yawned.
Before Zhao Yue could speak, Wen Liunian took the initiative to say, "Sleep."
Zhao Yue went back to the bedroom with him.
Wen Liunian: ...
Zhao Yue sat at the table, not intending to leave at all, obviously determined to wait for him to fall asleep.
Wen Liunian had no choice but to call for hot water to wash, then undressed and went to bed, wrapped in a quilt to watch him.
Zhao Yue waved out the lights.
Wen Liunian hesitated to speak, and finally closed his eyes.
The bed curtain was not put down. After getting used to the darkness, Zhao Yue looked at the bed and felt... It would be nice to sit here all night.
Because the room is very quiet, and there is a scent of bluegrass.
Wen Liunian coughed softly.
"Caught a cold?" Zhao Yue frowned.
"It's okay." Wen Liunian said, "It will be fine after a night's sleep."
Zhao Yue sat by the bed, stretched out his hand to test the temperature of his forehead, and immediately said dissatisfiedly, "Why do you always have a fever?"
"A total of two or three times." Wen Liunian said lazily, and was bumped by you every time.
Zhao Yue relit the candle, "I'll get you some medicine."
Wen Liunian said, "It's in the cabinet."
Zhao Yue opened the small cabinet, and sure enough, he found a bottle of pills. Wen Liunian sat up wrapped in a quilt, his hair was a little disheveled, and his face looked haggard.
Zhao Yue handed him the water, feeling a little depressed, "How much salary does the emperor pay you every month, is it worth working so hard?"
Wen Liunian thought about it after drinking the medicine, "I have a lot of salary."
Zhao Yue: ...
The ability to choke people is actually good.
"Thank you Master." Wen Liunian's nose was a little blocked.
Zhao Yue put down the water glass, "Why don't you ask the doctor to take a look?"
"It's okay, just sleep overnight." Wen Liunian lay back on the bed, frowned and complained softly, "Headache."
Zhao Yue glared at him, "Don't go to a doctor if you have a headache!"
"The doctor came to prescribe medicine." Wen Liunian yawned, "My medicine was given by Zuo Hufa, and it is much more effective than the doctor in the city."
Seeing his tired face, Zhao Yue didn't insist anymore. Originally, he wanted to sit back at the table, but he didn't leave after thinking about it, so he reached out to massage his temples.
Wen Liunian opened his eyes, feeling a little surprised.
Zhao Yue was a little awkward, so he became more fierce, "Sleep!"
Wen Liunian blinked, then laughed, "Yes."
The candlelight was dim, illuminating the whole person softly, with a warm and cute smile, Zhao Yue's heart tightened for no reason, as if something had dropped, or a kitten was scratching it.
Wen Liunian closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep not long after.
Hearing that his breathing was getting longer and longer, Zhao Yue hesitated for a moment. Just as he was thinking about whether to leave, Wen Liunian turned around and leaned over, grabbing his sleeves with his fingers—it was a bit cold at night, so he would instinctively look for a warm place.
Zhao Yue helped him press the quilt.
Wen Liunian hugged him even tighter, his cheeks were a little red, it was unknown whether it was because the bed was too warm, or because he was sick and still had a fever.
Zhao Yue leaned against the bed, protecting him from the cold wind, and didn't get up to leave the bedroom until dawn.
The dark guard looked at him with piercing eyes.
Zhao Yue walked around the crowd with a blank expression, and returned to the Shang Mansion over the wall.
The Jianghu mascot is very pleased. According to this progress, he should be able to drink the wedding wine soon...
It was probably because he was sick, so Wen Liunian didn't wake up until noon the next day. Although the fever had subsided, he still didn't have much strength.
Huatang cooked a stick of traditional Chinese medicine for him, "Your Excellency has been too tired recently, it's better to rest for a while."
Wen Liunian drank it in one gulp, raised his head, and said with a frown, "Bitter."
"The medicine is naturally bitter, but the sourness is due to the addition of hawthorn, which can whet the appetite." Huatang said, "If you have a cold, you should eat enough and sleep well, so that you can recover soon."
Wen Liunian said, "It's almost fine."
"No matter how important the official duties are, I can't break my body." Hua Tang said, "Your Excellency, you should continue to lie down."
Having said that, but thinking of the strange corpses in Wuniu Township, Wen Liunian still lifted the quilt and wanted to continue going to the study.
"Xiao Wu and Master Shang are responsible for the affairs of Mu's Village, and Mr. Mu for the rest of the miscellaneous affairs in the government office. As for the newly sent murder case, Master Zhao has already gone to Wuniu Township." Hua Tang said, "My lord, just rest It's good to go."
Wen Liunian was surprised when he heard the words, "Master Zhao went to Wuniu Township?"
Hua Tang nodded, "The second master also went together."
Wen Liunian: ...
"My lord had a fever last night, so the head took care of him all night in his room." Hua Tang said again, "I didn't leave until dawn."
Wen Liunian thought for a while, and said, "Da Dangjia is a good person."
"The two heads of Chaomuya's family are people who travel the rivers and lakes, and solving the case may not be as good as the government." Hua Tang said, "After all, they have already rushed over. You might as well wait for the news with peace of mind. Maybe there will be new discoveries."
Wen Liunian nodded, and lay back on the bed again.
Hua Tang went out with an empty bowl, then went back to her bedroom and started writing letters.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Wu asked.
"Write a letter to the Palace Master." Hua Tang said, "If everything goes well, we can probably have two wedding banquets."
"Master Shang and Master Wen?" Zhao Wu helped her pour a glass of water.
Hua Tang laughed out loud, "What are Lord Shang and Lord Wen? You can't ignore that."
"It's okay to talk about the Lord Shang's side, but Zhao Dazhao's side is really so fast?" Zhao Wu sat at the table.
"A few days ago, when we met, we pinched each other, and now we can stay overnight in the room." Hua Tang said, "Who can say for sure about these things, after all, we have to prepare gifts sooner or later. Naturally, it is better to have more time."
Zhao Wu nodded, "Yes."
In Wuniu Township outside the city, Zhao Yue felt his nose itchy for no reason.
Lu Zhui said, "Ahead is where the murder occurred."
Zhao Yue frowned, "Vegetable field?"
"It's a vegetable field, but it has been abandoned for a long time, and there are wild vegetables in it." Lu Zhui said, "It is said that this area is haunted, so basically no one comes here."
There was silence all around, Zhao Yue and him went up to check, and saw that the green and lush wild vegetable fields were crushed into a mess, and there were some footprints left by the officials when they moved the corpses.
"The local county magistrate has already checked, and no one has lost anyone." Lu Zhui said, "Seven or eight corpses fell from the sky, and all of them were completely changed as if struck by lightning. I don’t even dare to go out the door.”
"In the barren mountains and wild mountains, who would deliberately come here to throw the corpse?" Zhao Yue looked up, "It seems that no one has walked the mountain road for a long time."
"Go up and have a look?" Lu asked.
Zhao Yue nodded, and walked up the mountain together with him. It became more and more difficult as he went forward. Before reaching the halfway up the mountain, the mountain road was already tightly blocked by weeds and wild jujube thorns, making it almost impossible to walk an inch.
"Shouldn't have come down from the mountain." Lu Zhui said, "Even a master of lightness kung fu would not be able to walk this way with a dead body on his shoulders."
"But this area is full of wild vegetables." Zhao Yue stood on the mountain and looked down. "Except for the crushed area in the middle, there is only one road leading to the villages in Wuniu Township, and there are no signs of destruction in the other surrounding areas."
"Let's go to the village and have a look." Lu Zhui said, "Now is the time for eating, there should be quite a few people there."
