They say it's sick

Gao Liang sent the two of them all the way to the door. At first he wanted to confess a few words, but before he could open his mouth, another matter came up. He only had time to hand the lantern in his hand to Li Yan, and left in a hurry.

Li Yan pushed open the door, took a lantern to shine a light inside, and then turned sideways to signal Yun Zhi beside him: "Please, Young Master Yun!"

Yun Zhi glanced at him, with a smile in his eyes, and went straight into the door.

Suwei Mansion is busy with affairs, and Gao Liang, as the commander, often has to stay overnight.Therefore, although his room is not big, it is complete with daily necessities.

Li Yan lit the candles on the table, looked around the room, pointed to the chair next to him, and motioned Yunzhi to sit down: "You take a rest first, I'll go get some water and come back."

Yun Zhi reached out and took the lantern that he had not had time to put down: "Together..."

There was a well not far from the door. Two people, one holding a lamp and the other carrying a bucket, quickly fetched water and came back.

Yun Zhi extinguished the lantern in his hand, turned around and Li Yan had already filled the basin with water, turned around and said, "Let's wash..."

Yun Zhi put down the lantern and responded, "Okay..."

The freshly brought up well water was slightly cool, splashing on his face, refreshing his mind.

In order to let the dead man speak as soon as possible, during the previous interrogation, his subordinates were more ruthless, so that the whole outer robe and the middle coat inside were soaked in blood.

Yun Zhi took it off together, and glanced at it by the dim candlelight. The weather is hot, and the time has already dried up, and the clothes are mottled, and it seems that a strong smell of blood can still be smelled.

Yun Zhi frowned, put the clothes aside casually, and carefully scrubbed the blood and sweat stains on her body with the water in the basin.

It wasn't until there was no more unpleasant smell in my nose that I straightened up and found that there was an extra piece of clothing in front of me.

Yun Zhi glanced at the shirt, but said nothing.

It may be that they were inseparable during the days on the mountain. Unknowingly, he and Li Yan developed an indescribable tacit understanding and trust in many things.It's like just looking at each other in the afternoon, Li Yan can understand what he thinks in his heart;

Or just now at the well, when Li Yan stretched out his hand to lift the full bucket, Li Yan said "I can lift it", and he let go of it unceremoniously——

He didn't want Li Yan to see all kinds of blood and cruelty during the interrogation. Although Li Yan was weak and sick, he was never a waste that could not be carried by hands or shoulders.

Before that, it was only like this when getting along with Chen Jin.And it was grown up together since childhood, and it was slowly developed after years of fighting in the battlefield.

Seeing that Yun Zhi hadn't responded, Li Yan, who had been leaning sideways, said, "I've checked it, it's new, no one has worn it."

Yun Zhi took a cloth towel and carefully wiped off the water on her face: "I know..."

Then he reached out and took the shirt over.

In this kind of matter, he never doubted Li Yan.

Yun Zhi has always been self-aware, knowing that he is too picky about some trivial matters, but every time, Li Yan will notice, and I don't know when, he has also become accustomed to Li Yan's meticulous attention to these trivial matters. care.

In fact, after many years in the army, it may not be impossible to endure hardships and make ends meet, but when he came to Li Yan's place, he suddenly seemed so pampered that even eating and living alone was a problem.

He was obviously two years older, but unknowingly, he became dependent on the younger person in front of him who was not in good health.

rely……

Yun Zhi repeated these two words in her mind.

These are actually two very unfamiliar words.

Although he liked to stick to his elder brother since he was a child, he also liked to follow his father when he was in the army.But in fact, the existence of his father and brother is more like a guide. In the past ten years, every step he took and every decision he made relied on himself.

Perhaps because of being in the army, I have to be responsible for the soldiers under my hand and the people at the border, so I am used to being sober, calm and independent.

But in front of Li Yan, it doesn't have to be like this.

You don't have to be the young master of the Yun family, not a lieutenant in the army, you don't have to be responsible to anyone, just yourself, you can be lazy or slack, you don't have to think about anything, or you don't have to do anything Don't have any scruples.

Even if he has just been stained with blood and the dagger in his hand is still dripping with blood, he can easily relax the moment he meets those eyes.

After Yun Zhi put on her clothes, she couldn't help but look up at Li Yan.

Just as his thoughts drifted away, Li Yan had already changed the water in the basin and finished washing his face by himself.

When Yun Zhi looked over, he just raised his head, and his eyes swept over Yun Zhi: "General Gao's clothes are still a bit too big, let's just make up for it tonight."

"Staying in General Gao's house, and wearing his new clothes..." Yunzhi looked around the room, "It's a little too much to say that it's just a matter of time."

"Anyway, he wears official uniforms on weekdays. The mansion hired someone to make this clothes when it just entered summer. It's been a long time since I wore them, so I put them away..." Li Yan raised his eyebrows. , "I'll wash your outer robe for you. It's hot now, so I can do it tomorrow morning."

Because the hem of the clothes was wiped with a knife, Li Yan's robe was also stained with blood.Although it is not as exaggerated as Yun Zhi's, it is still very obvious.

Yun Zhi glanced down, then raised her eyes to look at Li Yan's face: "Have you always been used to taking care of others?"

Li Yan followed his gaze and glanced at him. His eyes turned around the room, knowing that it was unlikely to find another new dress. Fortunately, he just wiped the knife with the hem of the coat. The middle coat was still clean. Clothes belt, while following Yunzhi's words, he replied: "Who will take care of, Li Gui?"

"Li Gui is not really a person..." Yun Zhi tilted his head, "What about others, after they come to the capital."

"Why should I take care of others? I'm a bookkeeper in the palace, not a servant..." Li Yan took off his robe while speaking, and looked at Yun Zhi with a puzzled face, "Why do you ask this? I'm worried about me. Wash it well?"

"No, make sure of something."

Amid Li Yan's surprise, Yun Zhi reached out and took his robe over: "I'll do the laundry."

Li Yan looked at him and stood there without moving.

"I can't even wash a piece of clothes well..." Yun Zhi stretched out her hand and pushed him, "Go and get something to eat."

Li Yan blinked, looked down at the middle coat on his body, and then looked up at Yun Zhi.

Yunzhi: "..."

In the end, Li Yan stayed to do the laundry, and Yun Zhi went to the small kitchen in the Suwei Mansion to find something to eat.

I have to admit that this is actually the most efficient choice. After all, Yunzhi has grown so big that he has never washed his clothes once, and it is not considered to be a small kitchen for Li Yan to find in the winding Suwei Mansion. how easy.

Especially when Yun Zhi came back with the food box and found that Li Yan had washed all the clothes and was drying them one by one in the yard.

Hearing footsteps, he turned his head, smiled and looked at Yunzhi at the door: "Have you found something to eat?"

The night wind in the capital was also hot, and he had just washed his clothes. There was glistening sweat on his forehead, and he was only wearing a jacket with the cuffs rolled up, revealing two pale and thin arms.

In fact, it was not very appropriate, but Yun Zhi didn't feel this way in his heart.

He raised the food box in his hand towards Li Yan: "Fortunately, Suwei Mansion has the habit of making supper because there are people on duty at night. Otherwise, I will cook the noodles myself, and you may have to wait until midnight to eat them again tonight."

"If only Mr. Yun could cook again..." Li Yan finished drying the last piece of clothes, took the food box from Yun Zhi, and said as he walked into the house, "I can afford to wait no matter how late. "

Yun Zhi looked at his back, smiled lightly, and followed him into the door.

Since it was a late-night snack, there was nothing too complicated. Today, Yunzhi happened to catch up and got two bowls of steaming wontons.

On weekdays, in such weather, such steaming things are hard to swallow.But neither of them had eaten for most of the day, smelling the aroma of wontons, their index fingers moved wildly.

In the not-so-large room, two people crowded face to face on a small table, eating a bowl of wontons slowly, occasionally not paying attention, bumping into each other when lowering their heads, and looking up to see the opposite side full of wontons. Khan, I don't know who opened the head, and laughed at it.

After eating a whole bowl of wontons, people unconsciously felt a sense of satisfaction. Yun Zhi leaned back on the chair and let out a long sigh of relief.

Although Li Yan deliberately slowed down, he still ate faster. He had already poured the water in advance and handed it to Yunzhi. , why don’t you ask me what I found out?”

Li Yan looked back at him: "Then what do you want to say?"

"There's nothing we can't say..." Yun Zhi raised his eyes to look at him, "The King of Huai'an should have already guessed that I came to the capital to investigate the real culprit behind the death of my eldest brother."

Li Yan nodded: "Yes..."

"Sure enough, it's actually not that hard to guess..." Yunzhi lowered her eyes and smiled softly, "I didn't think too much about it at first, but when I saw my elder brother's body on the snowy field that day, I just wanted to help him. Revenge. Later, it took some effort to trace the trail and found the lair of the bandits.

I'm pretty good at self-restraint, don't say sixteen ordinary bandits, even if there are a little more, I won't pay attention to them, but I suffered a loss in their hands that day. "

Li Yan's throat twitched slightly, remembering that day at the gate of Yunfu, he saw this man covered in blood and fell off the horse, obviously not long ago, but his mood was completely different.

"At that time, fifteen of the gangsters died at my hands, and there was another one. I wanted to save him alive and come back for interrogation, but I didn't expect him to have poison hidden in him." Yun Zhi didn't notice the change in his mood, Gu Gu continued, "It happens to be the same poison as the group that assassinated the prince."

Li Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "The Zheng family has a new and old grudge with the prince, and it is not unusual to assassinate him. What enmity do they have with your Yun family?"
