They say it's sick

Cold comes and summer goes, evening goes and morning comes.

When I left that day, the capital city was still scorching hot in midsummer, and when I finally returned, there was already a hint of winter.Unlike northern Liaoning, where the mountains have long been covered by heavy snow, there is little snow in the capital city in winter, and even continuous rain.

The whole group grew up in northern Liaoning, and their impressions of winter are cold and snowy. They have never experienced this kind of experience before. Even Chen Jin, who is not afraid of the cold, has a rare way to add a coat to his coat. Cloak, also wearing bamboo hat and coir raincoat.

Although the two people in the carriage were not bothered by the rain, they couldn't bear the weather.Especially Li Yan, although he never forgot to take his medicine, it was not so easy to take care of his weak foundation. One day on the way, he caught up with the snow and stayed outside for a while, and that night he developed a fever.Although it will be fine soon, the rest of the journey will be taken care of by Yunzhi.

Just like at this moment, Li Ji was clearly in the carriage, wrapped in fox fur and covered with a blanket made of animal fur, and holding two sleeves in his arms. It was much better before, even Little Gray Rabbit thought his arms were too warm and insisted on staying in Yunzhi's arms.

Yun Zhi stroked the little gray rabbit with one hand. Hearing the patter of rain outside, she couldn't help but said, "This is the first time I've seen this kind of coldness in the capital. It looks like a mild wind and drizzle, but it feels cold and wet all over."

"It's really difficult..." Li Yan casually flipped through the picture album in his hand, which he bought to relieve boredom when passing through the town of Yunzhi, "Fortunately, it's not like the long winter in Liaobei, just these two The month turns, and it gets warmer after the new year."

"It's almost Chinese New Year..." Yunzhi thought for a while, "Your birthday is not far away."

Li Yan put down the album in his hand, and looked at his face with some surprise: "Do you know my birthday?"

"Of course I didn't know before, I took the time to inquire with Mrs. Zheng when I was in Li's residence..." Yun Zhi turned to look at him, "Have you not celebrated your birthday in these years?"

"I celebrated it when my mother was there. I have a vague impression that she would cook noodles for me and give me some fun little things. But at that time, I was young, and I couldn't even remember the exact date of my birthday... Li Yan laughed self-deprecatingly, "I didn't think about it again after that."

Li Yan has gone through too much suffering, not celebrating his birthday is really a trivial matter, even he himself doesn't care much about it, Yun Zhi naturally won't give unnecessary comfort to such a trivial matter, just pull him His hand shook slightly: "If you didn't have it before, then you don't have it. Now that you have me, you will have it in the future."

Li Yan bent his eyes: "Okay..."

The two of them were talking, when Chen Jin outside the car suddenly said, "You two, please interrupt, now that you are entering the city, will Li Yan go back to our place together, or go directly to Huai'an Palace?"

The smile on Li Yan's face faded a bit, his eyes lowered, and he looked at the hand he was holding with Yun Zhi.

Yun Zhi caught his expression in his eyes, shook his hands slightly, and replied to the outside of the car: "Let's go to Huai'an Palace."

Chen Jin responded and stopped talking, and there was a moment of silence in the carriage.

"If you don't want to go back, I don't mind taking you home..." Yunzhi smiled lightly, looking at Li Yan, "But the King of Huai'an is well-informed, I'm afraid he already knew before we entered the city. The two of us stayed together for the past few months, and now that we don’t go back to the house first when we come back, Guanshi Xiao probably has to sigh again, “It’s too big to stay.” "

His tone was relaxed, which made Li Yan a little bit happy: "It's not that I don't want to go back, I've been away for so long, I also miss the prince and the steward, it's just..."

It's just that the previous letter is still printed in my mind. Although I know that I will face it sooner or later, it is inevitable that I have the idea of ​​escaping at this time.

When he was talking, Yun Zhi kept looking at him quietly, and when he paused, he answered at the right time: "It's just that you can't bear to part with me, right?"

When he said this, Yun Zhi was in high spirits, without any shyness, as if it was a matter of course.

This is indeed a matter of course, this journey has been together day and night, I have long been used to seeing each other's existence as long as I raise my eyes, and I will be separated suddenly.

Although they are still in the same city, the distance is not too far, and we can meet every day if we are not busy, but it is not the same after all.

So Li Yan also responded without hesitation: "I miss you."

"Then..." Yun Zhi thought about it and said slowly, "I don't know when the palace is ready for the dowry, I still have some savings on hand, plus your little salary, I will take it to the palace to propose a marriage tomorrow, so you can make things happen live with me."

"Marriage proposal?" Li Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's fine if you get married."

"That's fine too..." Yun Zhi couldn't help laughing: "Anyway, as long as we are together, I don't care what it's called."

"I don't care either..." Li Yan also laughed, "I have taken advantage of the hairpin tassels from generation to generation in the Hou Mansion."

"That's not necessarily..." Yun Zhi was talking, her eyes swept over Li Yan's face, "Just looking at this face, I feel that I should make a little money."

Li Yan shook his head with a smile: "Probably only you will feel rare."

"That's because I have good eyesight..." Yun Zhi's voice was a little smug, "Most people in this world are inferior to me in this respect."

While talking, the carriage stopped suddenly, and Chen Jin coughed lightly before speaking: "Excuse me again, the palace is here!"

"Understood!" Yun Zhi replied, her eyes lingered on Li Yan's face for a while, and then handed over the little gray rabbit who had been holding her in her arms, "This little guy is more clingy to you, so I will follow you first." Go back, so that when you read at night, you will also have a companion."

Li Yan held the little gray rabbit in his arms: "What about you?"

"Then there is Chen Ban, he is noisy enough..." Yunzhi straightened the fox fur for him, "The things for the palace were packed separately this morning, remember to ask the concierge to move in. Although it is very important for the palace They are not rare items, but if you bring them back, the prince and the steward will be happy."

Li Yan responded and wanted to speak again, when Chen Jin coughed again from outside: "Sire, since when did you nagging like this, it's cold outside, it's not life and death, we'll see each other tomorrow, let's stop it!"

Yun Zhi later realized that he seemed to be nagging too much, and shook his head with a smile: "Let's go!"

"Um……"

Li Yan responded, leaned over and planted a very light kiss on Yunzhi's face, then put on the hood, folded the front of the fox fur and got out of the carriage.

Although he hadn't returned for several months, there was no obvious change in the palace.Except that the yard became much quieter due to the weather, everything else was not much different from before leaving.

Seeing Li Yan's return, the concierge was very happy, pulled Li Yan to say a few words, and explained the recent situation of the palace by the way—everything is fine, except that Xiao Luo is suffering from the cold.

Although Xiao Luo is not as strong in martial arts and physically strong as Xiao Duo or Yun Zhi, his physique is still far stronger than that of Li Yan. When he was young, he also learned some boxing skills with Xiao Duo, and he has not abandoned it for so many years. , I have been practicing it all the time, and I rarely get sick.

This time, it is said that it was because of the rare snowfall in the capital a few days ago—although through the concierge's description, Li Yan felt that it was just a freezing rain.

But it is already considered rare in the capital, even Xiao Luo became interested, and specially asked someone to set up soft chairs and charcoal basins in the gazebo in the garden, warm the wine, and enjoy the snow while drinking with Xiao Duo.

The artistic conception is good, but it may be due to the cold wind blowing and the fire, and drinking too much wine to heat up the body. After the combination of cold and heat, I had a fever that night.Although the imperial doctor came soon and prescribed medicine, she still hasn't fully recovered yet.

So Li Yan didn't have time to go back to his room to change clothes, and went straight to Xiao Luo's bedroom after entering the mansion.

The two people in the room were not surprised by Li Yan's appearance, only Xiao Duo frowned when he opened the door and brought in a gust of cold wind, pulled the quilt on Xiao Luo's body, and then turned his gaze to Li Yan, Seeing the fox fur on his body that was soaked in rain, he slightly raised his eyebrows: "I don't know how much I have grown up after going out for a trip, but my body seems to be hardened, and I dare to get wet in the rain?"

"It wasn't raining, I accidentally splashed it all the way along the corridor..." Li Yan said, and handed a little gray rabbit in his arms to Xiao Duo, took off the fox fur on his body and laid it on the bed. sit down.

It was warm in the room, and he was still wearing a cotton padded jacket, so he didn't feel cold, so he looked at Xiao Luo who was half lying down, "Is the job better?"

"The fever has subsided a long time ago, but I still feel a little dizzy and coughing..." Xiao Luo's complexion was still pale, but she was still in good spirits. She turned her eyes and glanced at Xiao Duo's hand, "Where is the little guy from?"

"I went to the mountain with Youhuai to play and catch it, but I kept it..." Li Yan took the little gray rabbit from Xiao Duo's hand and placed it next to Xiao Luo's bed, "Relax the boredom when you are idle. .”

Xiao Luo stretched out her hand and gently touched the little gray rabbit, but her eyes were on Li Yan's face, scanning him from top to bottom: "It seems that even though the journey is exhausting, Young Master Yun has taken good care of you."

"I took the medicine I took when I left on time. Although it is not obvious, it is still much better than before..." Li Yan said as if he suddenly thought of something, "I also brought something back from Pingzhou. The soil raised in the village Eggs, newly harvested rice, and self-brewed alcohol are not rare things, so eat them fresh."

Seeing his appearance, Xiao Luo laughed, and looked up at Xiao Duo who was also smiling: "Just say that the son was not raised in vain, and now he knows how to repay him."

Seeing Xiao Luo happy, Xiao Duo was in a better mood, reached out and patted Li Yan on the shoulder, and turned to Xiao Luo: "It just so happens that Xuanzhi is back, let him talk with you, I have something to do in the court, I will come back for dinner at night. "

Xiao Luo responded, picked up the little gray rabbit beside the pillow and raised her paw towards Xiao Duo: "Remember to tell the kitchen to prepare more Xuanzhi's favorite food."
