They say it's sick

There seem to be only two kinds of weather in summer in the capital, rainstorm or sun exposure.

In the middle of Fangmao, the sky was already bright, and before the sun had fully risen, the ground was already steaming with heat—or it might be that the heat from the night before had not dissipated.

As soon as Yun Zhi opened the door, he was blown all over his face by the heat, and immediately had the urge to ask Chen Jin to pack his luggage and prepare the carriage to return to Youzhou immediately——

Although Youzhou gets hot in summer, it is always cool in the morning and evening.If it's a rainy day, maybe you have to wear an extra coat.

It will never be like the capital city, no matter whether it is morning or evening, it is sweltering and sweltering, which makes Yunzhi feel somewhat ignorant when he just arrived in the capital and complained about the continuous rainy weather.

In the past few days, he once felt that he was actually living in a huge steamer. He was set on the fire every day, and sooner or later he was evaporated to dryness, turning into a mummified corpse.

Even someone as energetic as Chen Jin couldn't stand the weather.

People got up early in the morning, but they were quite listless. They moved a deck chair to the shade of the tree, staring at the dense leaves above their heads in a daze.

It wasn't until he heard the sound of the door opening that he turned around slowly and looked at Yun Zhi who was walking over, with a bit of resentment in his eyes.

"I regret it..." Chen Jin said weakly, "If I had known that summer in the capital was like this, I would have waited until autumn at least before coming here."

"To tell you the truth, I didn't expect it either." Yun Zhi rubbed her eyes, which had been dazzled by the sun, "Besides, I've heard people say that there is no serious autumn in the capital, and it just keeps getting hot all the way, and suddenly one day It’s winter, and I’m caught off guard.”

As he said that, he yawned, pushed Chen Jin to the other side of the recliner, and sat on it himself: "Otherwise, you will set off for Youzhou now, and go back when winter comes... But it is very possible When you arrive, it happens to be summer again."

Chen Jin: "Can you change the place?"

Yun Zhi's drowsiness has not completely dissipated, she leaned on the other side of the recliner, and yawned: "I can't..."

When Yun Li came over with the food box, what he saw was such a scene, two half-grown teenagers with tall legs and long legs crowded together on a recliner.

Probably because it was too hot, the reclining chair was obviously not very wide, and there was still a distance between the two of them so that they wouldn't stick together.

Even so, it didn't feel that cool.

Yun Zhi pushed Chen Jin: "It's too hot, go and move a deck chair over here!"

"You insisted on squeezing it up..." Chen Jin didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, "Go and move!"

Yunzhi closed her eyes slightly: "I don't want to move."

Chen Jin glared at him sideways: "Do I want to move?!"

Seeing that the dispute between the two became more and more naive, Yun Li finally couldn't help laughing, and put the food box on the stone table beside him: "I brought ice cream over here, come and eat some."

The two people who didn't want to move immediately turned over and sat up, got off the reclining chair one after the other, moved to the stone table, watched Yun Li bring out the ice cream, and each shared a bowl.

A lot of ice was added to the ice cheese, and it hadn't melted in time when it was carried all the way, and it was slightly cool in the mouth, which was enough to dispel the heat of the early morning.

Chen Jin ate a few mouthfuls and felt that he had finally come back to life. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief: "Brother Li, the capital city is so hot, how did you survive these three years?"

"I couldn't bear it at first, but after a long time, I gradually got used to it..." Yun Li smiled and poured him another spoonful, "It's natural to have a calm mind, you just have a restless mind."

"In this kind of weather, the saint can't calm down even when he comes..." Chen Jin muttered vaguely while eating, "It's not a solution to keep it so hot, I have to find a place to escape the heat."

"There is a mountain dozens of miles outside the city, and there is a Taoist temple on the mountain. I have been there once before, and I have a good relationship with the Taoist priest there..." Yun Li looked at Yun Zhi who had been eating in silence, " There are many trees and dense forests on the mountain, and it is much cooler than the city, if you really can't stand the heat, the two of you can live there for a few days."

"I'm afraid it won't work in the past few days..." Yunzhi finished eating the ice cream in the bowl, and her whole body cooled down a lot, and her mind finally recovered, "I'm going to Suwei Mansion later, although I can't be too busy, For the first few days, you have to put on more or less an appearance."

He tilted his head and glanced at Chen Jin: "How many days will you and Brother Li go to live?"

Chen Jin bit the spoon, shook his head after thinking about it: "I still have some things to do, let's talk about it in a few days."

While talking, a servant came over in a hurry: "My lord, take care of things!"

Yun Zhi responded, "Is there something wrong?"

"It's not a big deal..." The boy explained, "A few officials came just now, saying that the neighbors were attacked by thieves two days ago, and they came to ask if we were affected. Really back."

"Understood..." Yun Zhi said, and handed a bowl of ice cream to the boy, "Sweaty, go and rest for a while."

Chen Jin half leaned on the stone table, watched the boy leave with the bowl after thanking him, and then said: "At the root of the imperial city, at the foot of the emperor, why are there still thieves, the Suwei mansion doesn't care?"

"Although the Suwei Mansion is responsible for the safety of the capital, there are always things that we can't take care of. Besides, no matter how strict the supervision is, there will always be people who are daring..." Yun Li cleaned up the empty bowls on the table while talking, "Although we are far away from here, The imperial city is close, but there are few people around it, it is connected to a large city wall, and the streets are quiet, so it is inevitable that some small thieves will attack it. Speaking of which, there was a robbery in our mansion before."

Yun Zhi's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and after looking at Chen Jin, he asked, "When did it happen?"

"It's been a few days since the new year, and it's not yet the fifteenth day..." Yun Li thought about it and replied, "I woke up in the morning and found the door of the son's room was open. I think some little thief knew that it was the main house. Thought there would be something of value."

Speaking of this, he smiled, and couldn't help shaking his head: "You also know that the most valuable things in Shizi's house are those books, and the little thief rummaged through the books all over the floor, and left without finding anything of value. I was packing my things and thinking, if Shizi comes back and finds that his book has been touched by a little thief..."

Yun Zhi lowered her eyes and didn't answer.

When the New Year passed, something happened to Yunji, but Yunfu was in a state of desperation, so he only wrote a letter hastily, and didn't care about anything else.

So Yun Li, who was far away in the capital at that time, didn't know that the owners of the books he was tidying up could never come back.

In fact, as time passed, everyone gradually accepted the fact that Yunji had left.

It's just that the marks left by the accumulated time of getting along with each other are not so easy to erase. Many times, they are obviously just talking about some insignificant things, and they always mention it unconsciously, only to realize that the person is no longer there.

That moment of trance and loss hurts the most.

"It's almost time..." Yun Li silently put the empty bowl into the food box, raised his eyes and smiled at Yunzhi, "After washing up, go to Suwei Mansion, it will be hotter when the sun rises completely .”

"Okay..." Yunzhi rolled her eyes, "Brother Li, go and rest after you're done."

Yun Li responded, and walked away with the food box, leaving Yun Zhi and Chen Jin still leaning on the stone table, neither of them moved first.

Chen Jin half-closed his eyes: "Is there something strange about the thieves?"

"I don't know, maybe it's just a little thief, or maybe..." Yun Zhi thought, "The most valuable things in the big brother's room are those books, but it's hard to say whether there will be something that Brother Li doesn't know, it seems worthless , but very important things, maybe this thing is what we want to know, the reason why the black hands behind the scenes are murderous."

"Then what should we do now..." Chen Jin opened his eyes, "We don't even know if there is such a thing, and if there is such a thing, we don't know what it is, so how can we check?"

"Don't worry about it..." Yunzhi said, "Follow the current investigation and continue to investigate...does anyone in Pingzhou have any news?"

"Didn't Li Xuan carry out a bandit suppression some time ago, and there was a lot of movement. Although we pretended to be business travelers, it was easy to arouse suspicion, so we rested for a while. Recently, the bandit suppression was over, and we started to act... "

Chen Jin said, "It is said that Li Xuan destroyed more than ten bandit dens this time, and suppressed nearly a thousand bandits. He also specially sent a seal to report to the Holy Majesty, claiming that there will be no more banditry in Pingzhou since then."

"No more bandits..."

Yun Zhi smiled softly, noncommittal.

"Whether there will be banditry in Pingzhou in the future is hard to say, but I think Li Xuan's actions are a bit bandit-like. You went to that bandit den earlier, and you took the head away with your front foot, and Li Xuan sent someone there to take the head away. The remaining corpses and all kinds of messy things were taken away, not even a broken bowl..." Chen Jin shrugged, "At that time, Lord Hou wanted to send someone there, but Li Xuan swore that he would Find out the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of this group of bandits, and give the Hou family an explanation. After all, it is not the border of Youzhou, and the people in the capital are watching, so it is not good for the Hou to stretch his hands too far."

"I've carefully inspected the corpses and everything in the bandit's den. Since they are dead men, there will naturally be no clues on the corpses. If Li Xuan likes it, he can keep it. I don't even bother to bury it in his ancestral grave..." Yun Zhi carelessly scratched the stone table a few times, "I'd better check the trail and see if I can find out when this group of people entered the mountain, and whether the group of bandits that the nearby villagers said earlier were them. Since the dead are always taken care of by someone, there is always a source of food and clothing, and there is always a source for daily life, so it is impossible for more than a dozen people not to leave a trace."

Speaking of this, he raised his head: "Arrange a few more people to follow the traces of the elder brother's journey northward, and go to every village and town, inn, and house where he stayed. What did you ask..."

"I know..." Chen Jin nodded, and looked up to find Yunzhi standing up, "Get out?"

"Wash up, and then go to Suwei Mansion..." Yunzhi looked up at the rising sun, "Together?"

"If you go to Suwei, you won't have to fight first and bring a helper, right?" Chen Jin shook his head, "I'll take a rest, and I'll go out later, didn't I contact someone to check on the servant earlier, I guess There is news."

The author says:

I thought I would be able to write today until I report to Suwei, but it looks like it will be tomorrow.

Originally thought that the difficulty of this book would be the part of conspiracy, but after writing it, I realized that it was actually investigating the case...
