feud

"Cousin! You're finally here, he... he's dying, come and have a look!"

When Qi Xiangmei saw Cen Li as if seeing a savior, she immediately got up to make room for her, exchanged glances with Cen Li, and Qi Xiangmei politely invited the old doctor out of the room, "Sir, please come here , Mr. Lao, please rest here."

Cen Li sat on the side of the couch, looking affectionately at his pale cheeks, from the tip of his eyebrows to his eyelashes, from the bridge of his nose to his bloodless thin lips, as if a painter was concentrating on copying a masterpiece.

There was a smile on the corner of Wang Bing's mouth, as if saying "you are here" to him.

Cen Li pulled out the cork, poured out a black pill, gently pushed it into his slightly raised mouth, drank a bowl of water on the table, leaned over and kissed Wang Bing.

After Cen Li finished crossing the water, not only did he not leave, but instead deepened the kiss, the four lips rubbed and entangled, the soft touch made him want to stop no matter how many times he kissed.

If Wang Bing wasn't covered in bruises like he is now, Cen Li would definitely not be able to resist swallowing him alive, even though the part of his chest closest to his heart was also in pain like a tear.

As the sun went down, the tired people finally passed another busy day, and the cool night breeze began to blow over the roasted earth. At the same time, white smoke rose from the roofs of every house in Xuanhu City, and the fragrance of rice wafted from ten miles away.

Cen Li took Wang Bing, who had changed his clothes, back to the cleaned couch, and the bleeding stopped. The old doctor had already changed Wang Bing's medicine once, closed the packed medicine box, looked up and said to Cen Li: "The patient's breathing is stable. The body temperature is normal, and the bleeding has stopped. It can be seen that auspicious people have their own astrology. Next, take the medicine according to my prescription every day, and then heal the skin and flesh injuries. I believe there will be no serious problems. But be careful in the future , his body is weak, no more than ordinary people, and after this catastrophe, he will be worse than before, so don't be too tired for a while."

"Thank you sir." Cen Li took the old man to the gate of the mansion, gave him money, and saluted him solemnly.

Before returning to the room, Cen Li went to the East Kitchen to bring dinner and medicine, closed the door, and sat on the side of the couch to feed Wang Bing and drink medicine, and then went back to the case to eat by himself. Every time he took a bite, he would look up at the couch Take a look at the people on the table, and then dig into the rice.

At Haishi, Wang Bing had already wiped his body when he changed his dressing before, but Cen Li wiped it again for him. After taking a bath, he nestled under the quilt, traced Wang Bing's delicate eyebrows with his fingers, and then gently took him into his arms. In the middle of the day, seeing Wang Bing's peaceful sleeping face, the tense strings in his heart finally loosened after a few days, and the drowsiness also came back, and he fell asleep not long after.

Cen Li didn't know how long he had slept, he felt some itching on his neck in a daze, he opened his eyes almost immediately, and said softly, "Do you feel better?"

Wang Bing curled up in his arms, didn't raise his head when he heard the sound, and didn't speak for a long time, his voice was hoarse like a thirsty traveler in the desert: "Don't talk."

Cen Li circled him, resting his chin on top of Wang Bing's head, "You answer me first."

"……do not speak."

"What's the matter?" Cen Li acted like he was treating a coquettish cat, circling Wang Bing's hair with his fingers.

Wang Bing placed his hands on Cen Li's chest through his clothes, and asked in a trembling voice, "Does it hurt here?"

He just bandaged the wound indiscriminately by himself. The puncture was not deep, and the flesh was already scalded. He didn't expect to bleed.

Cen Li felt that the nape of his neck was already wet, and the whole body of the person in his arms was shaking, and his sobbing was suppressed very softly.

This person who just came back from the gate of hell was crying for a little injury that he didn't care about at all.

Cen Li hugged him even harder, like a drowning person in a rushing river clinging to driftwood, Wang Bing lightly rubbed against his shoulders, tightly clutching Cen Li's collar with both hands, curled up like a newborn baby , crying and intermittently said: "If you... die, I will have no place, okay, go, there... no more."

"No, you saved me. I've heard what Qi Xiangmei said, okay, don't cry."

"It's my fault. I don't want to implicate you, but I want to follow you again. I'm useless, but I still want to, even in my dreams..."

"On the way back, I thought you were dead..." Cen Li even had the idea of ​​not going back to the Qi Mansion on the way, he was afraid of seeing his bleeding state, afraid that what would meet him when he went back would be a cold corpse.

Cen Li took a deep breath, wishing to inhale the faint smell of medicine on that man's body, filling his heart. "Don't do it again, I can't stand it anymore, really."

Wang Bing's tears covered his eye sockets and completely broke the embankment, crying until he fell asleep in Cen Li's arms.

On the second day after meeting Cen Li, Lin Yi went to the government office as a guest, thanked Zhang Min and Han Kuang for helping him find someone, and made it clear that he was sorry to bother them.

Han Kuang looked for Wang Bing and the person in the portrait like crazy, but Lin Yi told him that he didn't want to look for the person in the portrait anymore.Finally, under Han Kuang's repeated questioning, Lin Yi was very unhappy when he was asked. I don't know why Han Kuang suddenly cared so much about Cen Li, and he only perfunctoryly said that the Taoist is no longer in Runan County. , left Runan County in a carriage.

In the midsummer of June, Han Kuang was sitting in a teahouse by the street that was distorted by the heat, drinking tea and sweating profusely. Just as he was about to get up, a soldier under his command suddenly handed over a letter, saying that a passer-by Han Kuang wanted to throw it away as a gift from the child, but when he saw the word "illness" on the folded letter, he immediately opened it ecstatically.

"Farewell without saying goodbye, offending. Everything is well, I hope you will cherish it, don't look for it."

There are only a few words back and forth, and Han Kuang can remember every stroke with his eyes closed.

Seeing Han Kuang's livid face, a soldier who was flushed with heat stepped forward worriedly and respectfully: "Captain Han, the next place is Yuzhu Lane, the soldiers have a good rest."

Han Kuang folded the letter and put it in his sleeve pocket, thinking dully of their short time together, and thinking of the person who was more anxious to find Wang Bing than himself that night, for a long time, he made a helpless and silent smile, and turned to The soldier said: "No need, order everyone to go out of the city and return to the camp outside the city for defense."

Wei Gongcao, the captain's subordinate, leaned over to Han Kuang's ear and said, "The scouts are here to report that the Chu army stationed on the other side of the Yingshui has moved." He said solemnly with a bit of reproach: "Captain Han can't No more capricious."

"Understood." Han Kuang got up and settled the bill.When he walked out of the teahouse, he saw Chen Cheyun was about to enter the teahouse, so he hurriedly saluted and greeted him.

"Your Majesty has met His Royal Highness Yuhe Wang."

Chen Cheyun got down from the carriage with a calm expression, "I heard that the Chu army is different, and the northern captain is not in the barracks. I didn't believe it at all, but now I have to believe it."

These words made Lin Yi speechless, so he knelt down and pleaded guilty: "This official has neglected his duties, and please forgive me."

"The wolves of the Chu state are ambitious and have been eyeing tigers for a long time. Our generation should strive for self-improvement and regain the lost ground. Captain Han should understand the country's affairs better than anyone else, so it's not a trifle."

"The next official is guilty."

"Get up." Chen Cheyun didn't really want to punish him at all, but he heard that Han Kuang called some soldiers into the city just to find someone to overthrow the territory of Runan County. , but the identity of the royal family is there, so Han Kuang's actions cannot be ignored.He helped Han Kuang up from the ground and patted him on the shoulder. Han Kuang's expression was very bad, as if someone had punched him in the face. Chen Cheyun knew that he was not the reason to blame.

Chen Cheyun raised his head, looked at the high and dense clouds in the distance, and didn't know what to feel in his heart. He originally wanted to comfort Han Kuang, but he didn't know who he was speaking to.

"People, you can't force everything. You will be happy if you get it today, but you have to try your best to keep it tomorrow. In this case, it's better to be different and be happy with each other. It's much better than resenting each other. You say yes Neither?"

Wang Bing lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the sky outside, wondering if Han Kuang had received the letter. Although Han Kuang had done something outrageous to him, in the end he was sincerely doing it for his own good, and he did not care about it. I searched for him for so long in return, and finally met him, but he left without saying goodbye. He is really not a human being.

"Come back and lie down." Cen Li peeled a lychee, hoping to attract Wang Bing's attention.

However, no matter how much he thought about it, it was useless. Wang Bing simply put down the car curtain and wanted to reach for the lychee, but Cen Li dodged it. Appear, is it really safe for us to go to Pingyang this time?"

"Even if he doesn't show up there, we have to go back. There are remnants of my father's forces there, but in order not to attract Chongyan's attention, Runan County is just one of them. Pingyang is a bit far away, and Runan County is also good. Yes, it’s a pity you see, Yuhe Wang and Han Kuang are not fuel-efficient lamps, on the contrary, Chongyan moved his capital to Luoyang, and his power in Pingyang is not as good as before, and the difficulty of rioting is lower than that of Runan County.”

Wang Bing nodded, bit the lychee handed over again, and turned his head to hide his slightly hot cheeks.

The seal on Baixianglou was put on by Zhang Min himself.Seeing Zhang Min leaving, Chen Cheyun lowered the curtain, turned his head and comforted the people in the carriage: "We will meet again."

This red restaurant that was once popular in Runan County has been corroded and destroyed by time, and only the last glory of that night is left for future generations to recall, so that future generations can get a glimpse of the amazing corner of this legendary woman under the mysterious veil.But no one knew that these two simple white seals had been sealed together with her master's heart.

If life is just like seeing it at first time, what is it? Waiting for leisure to change but the old people's mind, but the old people's mind is changeable.

The Lishan language is half past midnight, and the tears, rain, and bells will never complain. How about the lucky man in Jin Yi, who is so lucky that he will wish for that day.
