Chapter 40
Si He stared at Ji Wanghuai's leaving back in a daze, not knowing what Ji Wanghuai's purpose in coming to Chengguo was, he only heard Jun Yuan from the side ask: "Brother He, what are you looking at?"
"No." Si He dropped these words coldly, turned around and walked in the opposite direction to Ji Wanghuai, "Go back to the mansion, I want to go and have a look."
Jun Yuan is not familiar with Ji Wanghuai, and he doesn't want to mention this name in front of Jun Yuan, so as not to cause too much trouble to Ji Wanghuai in the future.
"Brother He." Jun Yuan frowned slightly, he took a step to stand in front of Si He, and asked doubtfully, "You know that person just now, right?"
Si He stopped in his tracks, his eyes darkened.Fortunately, his mask covered half of his face, and Jun Yuan couldn't see his expression clearly.He only felt a little sad in his heart, and there was an indescribable meaning.
"A Yuan, if you still call me Brother He." He said every word, very slowly, but every sentence hit Jun Yuan's heart, "If you still remember the old love, I beg you stop."
What he said was extremely sincere, but also extremely helpless, the wind blew up his hair hanging on both sides of his cheeks, making him look like a distraught knight.
"A Yuan, I beg you—" He licked his dry lips, and said lightly: "Can you stop watching me like a prisoner, and trap me in the prison you set up all the time?" in the cage."
Jun Yuan hurriedly said: "Brother He, I'm sorry, I'm not..." At this moment, guilt flooded into his heart. Of course, he didn't want to monitor Si He's every move all the time, but his mother-in-law ordered him to Can not defy, also dare not defy.
"Ah Yuan..." Si He smiled softly, feeling very tired, "I am no longer the Si He who could draw mountain birds to amuse you, now I have no strength in my right hand, and I am already half useless Now, what are you afraid of me doing? Are you afraid that I will run away?"
Jun Yuan didn't say a word, he just watched Si He silently standing in the crowded street like this, being bumped by the crowd around him, quite embarrassed, completely lost the rich and gorgeous appearance in the past.
Just like the sentence in the previous life——
Life and death are destiny, wealth is in heaven.
Unexpectedly, fate would turn around in circles. He tried his best to save everything, but there was still no way to avoid it, no way to retreat.
"Look at the people around here, they regard me as a disgrace." Si He said with a smile, "The Sifu is now in decline, and it no longer has the usual glory. Even if I go back, it will only make things worse for the Sifu. Besides, my My biological parents have passed away long ago, so where else can I escape to?"
Seeing this, Jun Yuan's eyes felt a little hot. Of course, he still remembered that Si He took care of him wholeheartedly, and he did not shy away from painting with divine power in front of him, but he was afraid that he would be too lonely in Chengguo alone.
But he told Princess Yu and Linyuan's star official all this intact.
In the final analysis, it is he who is not benevolent, and he is also the one who is unrighteous.
"Brother He." Jun Yuan was silent for a moment, and finally said, "I know, after today, I won't tell my mother-in-law everything, but I also have difficulties..."
"I will understand." Si He nodded, and said with a light smile: "I will not make things difficult for you."
The last word came out of Si He's mouth, and it almost made Jun Yuan's eyes blush, but when he realized, Si He had already walked three steps away, he quickly wiped the corners of his eyes, and quickly chased after him.
Si He stood in front of the Sifu, as if he had passed away.
Not long ago, he and Si Yan were playing in the snow in the courtyard. Mrs. Si stood aside holding a stove and watched them fight, while the servant and maidservant were sweeping the snow. When he looked up, he saw a wintersweet plant in the corner of the wall. Slanted across the wall.
But that seems to be a distant and strange memory.
Today's Sifu seems to have never been inhabited, with cobwebs everywhere, no one sweeping snow in front of the door, fallen leaves are falling, and it is very lonely.There is a seal on the door, and it flutters leisurely when the wind blows, like a gully, from now on the glorious Sifu is separated from their present.
Si He didn't know how long he stood in front of the Si Mansion's gate, he only felt someone pulling his arm, and he staggered, only then came back to his senses.
"Let's go to the villa."
***
Linyuan star official Jiang Yunxiu was lying in the middle of the sacrificial altar, and she was surrounded by dozens of burning red candles.She looked up at the sky, and it was still a few hours before it was late at night.
"Did the eldest princess invite Si He back to Linyuan?" Her silver hair was full of beaded hairpins, her face looked very young, and who knew she was over fifty.
"My lord, the eldest princess is already on her way back to Linyuan." The servant girl replied respectfully, "It is estimated that she will arrive at Linyuan in a few days."
"That's good..." Jiang Yunxiu breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed: "Brother left early, I wanted to bring the running script to Laiyuan, but this child is so stubborn, now I must not let He'er go again Take this detour."
"Your Excellency said so." The maid lowered her head and offered a bowl of tea, "Your Excellency, please drink tea."
"Put it there." Jiang Yunxiu was in a pretty good mood now, and couldn't help saying a few more words than usual: "I didn't expect that He'er is also a magician, which is really a coincidence. Brother Zeng made a calculation, But he has been reluctant to tell me the result. He wanted to protect He'er, but I can be regarded as his junior sister, so naturally I won't harm He'er. Yue Qing, you have a reason for saying that. ?”
"What your lord said is true." The maid stood aside with a low eyebrow, Jiang Yunxiu felt bored, and said with a smile: "But it's ironic, the eldest princess can't marry the senior brother, so she can only think of ways to kiss the senior brother." Grandson is better."
Now Linyuan can directly call the eldest princess by her name, except for the monarch, the only one is the star official.
Yue Qing only felt cold sweat running down her back, and she didn't know how to answer the words for a while, but Jiang Yunxiu continued: "But it's good that He'er is here in Linyuan, the eldest princess should also choose a son-in-law."
Jiang Yunxiu has ambitions, but that's all.
After all, she will always be loyal to Linyuan.
While the two were talking, the tiles on the temple moved secretly, and a clear eye appeared in the gap.
……
Yunxiao Mountain Villa is some distance away from Mocheng, even if Ji Wanghuai, Jiuqing and Yu Jiang rode all the way on the cloud-treading steed, they only arrived at the mountain villa in the evening.
The colder the night, the more serious the cold poison of Ji Wanghuai was. At this time, he only felt the cold air in his body penetrated into the bone marrow, and he even felt that his limbs were almost stiff and lost his intuition.
"Go and knock on the door..." Ji Wanghuai's lips turned blue, his face was pale, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead, "Let's say that Si He's old friend is visiting."
Jiuqing nodded quickly, walked quickly to the front of the villa and knocked on the door: "Is anyone there—"
Seeing that Ji Wanghuai was so cold, Yu Jiang took off his cloak and put it on him, and said distressedly: "My lord, why are you bothering?"
"I don't feel bitter." Ji Wanghuai shook his head and laughed, "On the contrary, I feel very happy."
"Every time I come to Chengguo and see people from the Si family, I feel as if Si He is still by my side." Ji Wanghuai lowered his head and smiled and said, "Could this be Ai Wu Ji Wu?"
After a long time, I saw a little boy open the door a crack, and asked cautiously, "Who are you looking for?"
"We are Si He's old friends, Mrs. Si and Si He's boy should know us." Ji Wanghuai took a step forward and said gently, "Today's rash visit, I wonder if we can go in and talk."
I heard someone talking intermittently behind the door. After a long while, a woman appeared behind the door. After she saw Ji Wanghuai, she hurriedly said pleasantly: "Aren't you He'er's friend? I know you, come in and talk quickly -"
Ji Wanghuai and his party hurriedly expressed their thanks, and followed Mrs. Si into the villa.
……
"Thank you for your kindness." Si Pingchuan sighed, and said slowly, "Since He'er left...we have never returned to Mo City."
Si Pingchuan, Mrs. Si and Si Yan were sitting in the hall. Mrs. Si had obviously cried not long ago, her eyes were still swollen to death, "My crane is really suffering—"
While comforting his mother, Si Yan said with a wry smile: "Thank you, Mr. Ji, for your kindness. The family is doing well now, and the new emperor has not held He'er accountable anymore. It's just that the father's official position has been dismissed and the house has been sealed."
Although Lu Yu's move was not a disaster for the Si family, it was still a heavy blow.
Seeing this, Ji Wanghuai felt relieved a little, and then heard Si Yan sigh with emotion: "I heard my mother said before that Mr. Ji brought a miracle doctor to cure He'er's illness. I still have to thank you very much today. You have traveled a long distance. , why not rest in the villa for a few days."
While talking, Xiao Lushui and Qi Shu walked in from the door.
"Brother Ji!" Xiao Lushui ran up to Ji Wanghuai, crying, "Brother Xiaohe, he..."
"Little Lushui, be good, come to Auntie." Mrs. Si hugged Xiao Lushui and said lovingly, "Stop crying, good boy."
This little dew is still young, so she is naturally afraid of birth, old age, sickness and death.He had saved Si He and Crown Prince Qiguo before, so he thought that he was no longer afraid of the separation between yin and yang, but when this moment came, he still felt a little unacceptable.
The Si family treated Xiao Lushui pretty well, and Si Yan and the others thought that Xiao Lushui could make Si He's wound heal as soon as possible because he studied medicine to save people since he was a child, and they didn't think of him as a magician.
I just feel that Xiao Lushui should be regarded as the savior of the Si family. Even though Si He said that he made Xiao Lushui his child, in fact, the Sifu sent people to teach him how to read and read, and cut new clothes for him. people come to see.
Qi Shu and Ji Wanghuai looked at each other, then turned away, as if they never knew each other.
But Si Yan noticed Ji Wanghuai's abnormality, he frowned and asked: "Young Master Ji, did you suffer from the wind and cold?"
It was only then that everyone noticed that Ji Wanghuai's lips had lost all color, and even his face was extremely pale.
Mrs. Si was the closest to Ji Wanghuai, so she stretched out her hand to cover Ji Wanghuai's forehead. Soon, she stopped her hand abruptly and said worriedly: "This child's forehead is terribly cold. I'm afraid he's caught the cold. Let the kitchen cook some more." Jiangtang, come, Yan'er helps him to take a hot bath in the hot spring pool, soothe the muscles and activate the blood."
Spa pool?When Ji Wanghuai heard the name in a daze, he felt a little familiar. He quickly realized that this was the hot spring pool that Si He had mentioned before.
……
The hot spring pool in Yunxiao Villa is filled with running water, and the pools are surrounded by white mist, just like a fairyland.
Ji Wanghuai was lying on the side of the pool, the warm spring water wrapped his whole body, the coldness on his body seemed to subside a little, and all he could see was milky white clouds and mist, he felt a little sleepy, so he leaned against the side of the pool, squinting his eyes Take a nap.
In a trance, Ji Wanghuai felt as if he had fallen asleep, but at the same time he seemed not asleep.
The body is light and floating, as if falling in the clouds.
A pair of arms stretched out from nowhere, and embraced him who was soaked in the spring water from behind, with water droplets all over his body.
The man rested his chin lightly on his shoulder, and the hot air sprayed into his right ear, as if someone was gently teasing with a feather.
"do you miss me?"
Ji Wanghuai felt in a daze that he had a big dream.
Before he even had time to answer, the man had already pressed a shallow kiss on his earlobe.
"It doesn't matter if you don't say it, at least I miss you very much."
"No." Si He dropped these words coldly, turned around and walked in the opposite direction to Ji Wanghuai, "Go back to the mansion, I want to go and have a look."
Jun Yuan is not familiar with Ji Wanghuai, and he doesn't want to mention this name in front of Jun Yuan, so as not to cause too much trouble to Ji Wanghuai in the future.
