The air is filled with a faint earthy smell, and when it rains, the wind is the most refreshing.Xiao Suo didn't want to move, he put his face on the scar left by the arrow, and closed his eyes to rest.

Shen Yan was half lying and half sitting, looking down, he could only see his crooked head, and then down was the body that had just been trampled by him.His palms are not soft, and a thin layer of calluses has been sharpened by holding a knife all year round, but fortunately, it is not rough.

The person in his arms couldn't help trembling with his caress, just like the shaking of eyelashes when closing his eyes-a reaction of completely surrendering to power.The corner of his mouth curled up in a satisfied and joyful arc, pressing on Xiao Suo's protruding spine, his movements became more and more sympathetic.

"Does it still hurt?" He hugged him tighter.

"It doesn't hurt." Xiao Suo shook his head, his long fluffy hair brushed against his heart, "I want to see Mei Qi, and I have something to ask."

Shen Yan played with his earlobe and asked, "Is there anything else you don't understand? Let me tell you."

Xiao Suo raised his head and glanced at him, and said with a flat mouth, "Why are you pushing so hard to prevent me from seeing him?"

There was suspicion in his tone, more sourness, Shen Yan could hear it naturally, Shumei smiled and said: "It's not that I stop you from seeing him, the main reason is that he doesn't want to see anyone because of his handicap. Now even I don't want to see him." I often go to visit him, and only Ruan Tong is with him every day."

"You are really pitiful." Xiao Suo muttered, and said sullenly: "I want to ask him if he knows the details of the Qi Wang party's manipulation of the scientific examination, I..."

After all, he has a knot in his heart. How can he let go of it easily after suffering so much at the beginning.

Shen Yan pulled him aside, put on his clothes and got up, took a stack of papers from the desk and gave him: "Open it and have a look."

Xiao Suo had already seen it - on the day of his wedding - he just put it aside and asked, "What's wrong?"

"These are all the test papers you have taken in the scientific examinations over the years. After you were released from prison, I asked Yan Jun to go to the Ministry of Rites to get them." Shen Yan sat beside him, put his arms around someone and said, "I don't understand this, but I found it Xie Yi read it, and he said that you are very talented and should have won the exam long ago. So you don’t have to ask, because you have failed many times in the past, so naturally it has nothing to do with your activities. The officialdom is dark, and this exam room is even darker. I’ve seen a lot, don’t you understand?”

Xiao Suo flipped through the articles written with blood and tears page by page, and the snowflakes reflected in the snow for 24 years. Time passed by his eyes one by one, he sighed unconsciously, and said with red eyes: "Give me fire."

Shen Yan understood, although he was reluctant to part with his calligraphy, he didn't want to go against his wishes, so he went out and ordered someone to build a brazier, and said: "Don't smoke, come to the window."

Xiao Suo was originally kneeling, but when he put on his shoes, he sat on the edge of the bed, and immediately felt a burst of soreness behind him.He frowned and turned sideways, without boots at all, and walked over barefoot.

Because it is summer, the carpets in the house have been put away.The marble surface is as cold as water, which makes the soles of the feet ache.Shen Yan hurriedly lifted him up, ordered him to sit on his lap, and leaned over to help him put on his shoes.

Xiao Suo supported his broad shoulders and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter for a while."

"Be obedient." He couldn't help but grab a pair of well-knit ankles, and gently tucked his heels into the shoes.

The hot charcoal in the copper basin was burning vigorously, Xiao Suo walked up to him, and threw the scroll in his hand into it without hesitation.The tongues of flames were swept away, and the flames were scarlet, turning the paper into ashes in a short time.

"When it is black, it still has bones, but when it is very red, it turns to ashes." He looked at the burning coals and sighed, "One day in the future, I may also be caught in the fire."

Shen Yan leaned over and kissed his forehead, jokingly said: "Then I will turn into water, wherever you burn, I will drown there."

"Then don't drown me." Xiao Suo pursed his lips, "Okay, just take it out."

When Eleventh came in to get the brazier, he saw that Shen Yan and Xiao Suo were both awake, and said: "Master, the palace has just issued a decree to call the Imperial Physician Zhong who should not be on duty tonight."

"Did you ever say it was for what?" Shen Yan asked absent-mindedly, with one arm around Xiao Suo's waist, his eyes stared straight at the place where the back protruded.

Xiao Suo didn't notice, and only asked Eleven: "Is the emperor's illness recurring?"

"Who knows about this, is there still someone who can't do it? It's about the emperor's body, even if he is sick, no one dares to say it. Mr. Xiao has been an official for so long, why doesn't he even understand this!" Eleven's tone was still the same. That kind of disdain, it seems that when facing Xiao Suo, he only showed a good face when Shen Yan was in good relationship with him.

"If everyone knows about it, is there any need to ask you?" Shen Yan said with a serious face, "Hurry up and find out, you're talking too much here!"

Eleven responded "Yes", turned around and left angrily.

Xiao Suo looked at Shen Yan, twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "You are still angry with him, and he is even more angry with me."

"It's all routine, there are no rules!" Shen Yan said, "You don't have to be afraid of him in the future, I will get him over this left-handedness sooner or later."

"He protects you wholeheartedly, and he stabbed me for you." Xiao Suo couldn't sit still, so he walked back and forth in the house.

Shen Yan took two sips of water from the teapot, wiped the corner of his mouth and said: "If it's for me, you should know what I value most in my heart. This is not the reason for him to bully you, I will tell him, you don't have to always be wronged in the future Please forgive me."

Xiao Suo approached, took a sip from the cup in his hand, and said with a smile: "I'm not wronged."

With you here, I am not wronged.

"Eleven's straightforward temperament is much better than a man with a sweet mouth and a sword." He continued, "The master obeys his servant, this is the benefit you cultivated with him."

Shen Yan smiled, raised her face and asked: "Then are you praising him or me? If you're praising me, it means that I'm frank. Since you said I'm frank, I really want to ask you something. "

"What's the matter?" Xiao Suo smiled sweetly, with beautiful eyes and hopeful eyes, slightly holding the corner of his lips and said: "You ask."

"At that time, those letters I saw..." Shen Yan couldn't help suffocating, after such a long time, he still found it unbearable, "Did you and Ouyang Xu write those soft-spoken love letters? "

He didn't want to believe it, and he didn't really believe it. It was just that the game was too real, and he had a thorn in his heart, so he had to ask.

"What do you think?" Xiao Suo didn't answer, just stared at him.

"I..." Before Shen Yan finished speaking, he said again: "If you think it is, then it is not. It is useless for me to say, it is better not to say."

These words have already loosened three points, and Shen Yan's heart is at ease: "I said, as long as you tell me, I will believe it. Now I don't ask, and you don't have to say it."

Yes, yes, no, no, no ambiguity, why be ambiguous?

He was ambiguous, which meant that this matter was originally nonsense.But he refused to directly say that those letters were fake, which showed that he was still not sure whether he should be honest with himself and get back together.And I was quite suspicious when I asked this question, how could Shen Yan be suspicious of Xiao Suo?

He concluded that Dubao was angry.

Sure enough, Xiao Suo straightened his clothes and said: "It's getting late, I'm going back."

"Don't!" Shen Yan grabbed his arm, wanted to hold back a few words, but seeing his resolute expression, he had to say in a discouraged voice: "It's dark, it's raining and it's hard to go, I'll see you off."

Xiao Suo did not refuse, just pushed open the door and opened the umbrella, saw Eleven coming in the rain, hurriedly said: "Master, the emperor urgently called you into the palace, it seems, it seems... the emperor is dying!"

Things happened so fast that no one could have expected it.Yan Jun was talking to the emperor a moment ago, Huan Ye leaned into his arms and drank two sips of water, and was tender with him for a moment, then suddenly vomited blood on the ground and passed away.

Yan Jun was usually the most calm, and he couldn't help but panic when he encountered such a thing, so he ordered Shang Huai to call the imperial physician as soon as possible with the last sliver of reason.The three imperial physicians working in the imperial hospital are not experienced and seasoned, and they are young and dare not take responsibility. They all claim to be incompetent, so they quickly invite Zhong Ming, the head of the imperial hospital, to treat the emperor.

Imperial Physician Zhong entered the palace in the rain, looked around, asked questions, administered a few injections, prescribed two more doses of medicine, and finally woke up Huan Ye.However, he was very ill, and he was on the verge of falling down. Although he was awake, he showed some signs of dying.

Zhong Ming was helpless and just knelt in silence.

Yan Jun refused to believe it, and was busy asking for the decoction.Huan Ye held him back, and said intermittently: "You don't have to go, I know my own body, I'm afraid..." After coughing a few times, someone wiped away the blood stains from the corner of his mouth, and said: "Call, call Shen Yan, I want to see..."

Before he finished speaking, he had no energy left to open his mouth.

Yan Jun's heart is like a mirror, knowing that when Huan Ye passes away, the person he most wants to see must be Shen Yan.On the one hand, he ordered Shang Huai to keep an eye on the maids in the palace, and ordered Qin Huan to lead his troops to block the news, and on the other hand, he ordered people to fly horses to pass on Shen Yan.

Eleven originally went out to inquire about Zhong Ming's entry into the palace, saw the royal guards galloping towards the general's mansion in the rain, stepped forward to ask a few words, and then came back together.

Xiao Suo heard the words and hurriedly said: "Go quickly, I'll just go back by myself. The emperor must have something important to ask you, so don't delay."

But Shen Yan didn't let him go, turned around and told Eleven: "Hurry up to get the car, and get Ji Ziyang up and go together." Then he grabbed Xiao Suo's hand and said, "You also come with me, just say that I know there is a car in your house." Excellent doctor, I invite you to take it to face the saint."

The matter was urgent and there was no time to argue, Xiao Suo got into the car according to his advice, and hurried into the palace.

Shen Yan turned his collar out, and said: "Ji Langzhong was rescued by me from Anle County on Shiyi, which is Anle County where Ouyang Xu is located. Ouyang Xu and you were Jinshi in the same discipline, and they lived together. Shi Hou said that you asked Ouyang county magistrate to rescue him and bring him to the capital, so the emperor will believe it. Also, no matter what happens today, you remember, just pretend not to know, do you hear?"

"I know." Xiao Suo nodded again and again, clutching the hem of his clothes and trembling, he asked him incoherently: "Your Majesty...will he..."

Shen Yan covered his mouth and hissed: "Don't say it, it's okay, nothing will happen."

The carriage galloped to the gate of the palace, and Qin Huan was already waiting there.Shen Yan pulled Ji Ziyang, who had just fallen off the horse, to him, and said: "This is a famous doctor in the world, recommended by Mr. Xiao. The folk remedies may be able to cure the affliction of wealth in the palace. Show it to the emperor."

Qin Huan led them in, while saying: "Thoughtful, thoughtful. At this point, there is no other way. Go in quickly, Mr. Yan is inside."

Xiao Suo followed Shen Yan into the hall, saw Wu Ya knelt down on the ground, but they were all quiet and did not dare to make a sound.Yan Jun sat on the edge of the couch in a daze.The emperor leaned in his arms, his face was like gold paper, his breath was like gossamer, he couldn't even see the ups and downs of his breathing.

Seeing them coming in, Yan Jun gently aroused Huan Ye.The latter opened his eyes slightly and stretched out a hand.Shen Yan hurriedly stepped forward to hold it, knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the subject is here! The subject brings the doctor, and the emperor's illness will be cured!"

"No... that's unnecessary." Huan Ye squeezed his hand reluctantly, and said with difficulty, "I, I will leave it to you, you must... help him ascend...to the throne. I entrust my whole life and career to You are gone, if you change someone else, you can no longer rest assured!"
