I'm the substitute and I'm with the real master

Xue Ya, who returned to the carriage, buried herself in the quilt, acting like a turtle.Fortunately, He Xulan didn't laugh at him anymore, he nestled for a while, and the fever on his face gradually faded.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, Xue Ya fell asleep again, because she slept too much during the day, she woke up suddenly in the middle of the night.After he woke up, he instinctively went to look for He Xulan, but when he looked up, he found that He Xulan was not in the carriage, but Yi Yefeng was sitting diagonally opposite with his sword in his arms.

When Yi Yefeng heard the movement, he quickly opened his eyes. When he saw Xue Ya, his eyes flickered for a moment, and then he turned his eyes away.Xue Ya noticed that the carriage was still moving forward, and realized that it was He Xulan who was driving the carriage, so instead of calling He Xulan, she moved forward by herself, propped herself up and poured a glass of water.

The water had become cold, he frowned and took two sips, then put down the cup.

Xueya, who was full of sleep, didn't want to sleep any more. After hugging the quilt for a while, she picked up the outer robe next to her and began to put it on. After she finished putting it on, she took out Mrs. Tang, who was still hot in the quilt, and hugged her in her arms, and walked out of the car curtain. drill.

But before he got out, he was stopped.

It was Yi Yefeng's sword that stopped him.

Xue Ya turned her eyes to look over, with a puzzled expression on her face.

Yi Ye said expressionlessly on the cover: "It's windy at night, and if your condition worsens, you'll have to waste time decocting medicine."

Xue Ya was a little unhappy when he heard this, because he was unhappy, he didn't talk to Yi Yefeng, and pushed away the sword in front of him with his hands, but before he pushed it away, He Xulan's voice came from outside.

"Yi Yefeng is right, Xueya, you should stay in the carriage."

"Okay, brother, are you cold? Here's Mrs. Tang." Xue Ya handed Mrs. Tang out.

"It's not cold, you take it."

Hearing this, Xue Ya had no choice but to sit back. He was not sleepy now, so bored that he was playing with his fingers. When he rolled his eyes, he suddenly found that Yi Yefeng was still open. He couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you sleep?"

Yi Yefeng didn't speak, and closed his eyes.

After driving for four days, they stopped at a roadside inn to rest for the night.The inn is dilapidated and small, the tables and chairs are all rotten, the corners of the room are covered with cobwebs, and the quilt on the bed still smells musty.Xue Ya could only comfort himself that at least he could take a hot bath, he was going crazy after four days without a bath.

Xue Ya didn't want to leave the bathtub after washing until the water was almost cold. When he came out, he found that the quilt on the bed had been replaced by the one he had covered on the carriage.

After He Xulan finished taking a bath, he couldn't wait to get into the other's arms and let He Xulan hold him.He Xulan had been driving at night for a few days, when Xueya saw the bruises under his eyes, she felt distressed and couldn't help touching them.

"Brother, are you tired?"

"It's okay, go to bed quickly, we can't sleep until dawn, we have to get up and go on our way in two hours." He Xulan took Xue Ya's hand and stuffed it under the quilt.

"Oh." Xue Ya obediently closed her eyes.

He Xulan saw that Xue Ya had hardly complained all this way, so she paused and asked softly: "Xue Ya, do you regret leaving the palace with me?"

He recognized the suit that Xue Ya wore when she came out of the palace, it was one of the outfits that Yin Qingxuan and Guan wore that day.If he hadn't brought Xue Ya out of the palace, perhaps Yin Qingxuan would have protected Xue Ya, ensured that he had no worries about food and clothing, and given him silk and satin.

The person he asked didn't even hesitate, so he replied, "I don't regret it."

He Xulan couldn't help asking, "Why?"

Xue Ya was already a little sleepy at this moment, rubbing his eyes, and said: "Where is my brother, I will be there, I want to be with my brother."

"Even if I can only eat bran-swallowed vegetables in the future, and maybe die, will you still be with me?" He Xulan asked again.

Xue Ya felt that He Xulan's worries were very unnecessary, but he couldn't tell the other party that he would become emperor in the future, so he decided to show his determination with actions.He leaned closer to He Xulan's face, and kissed him heavily on the lips, "Yeah."

The current embarrassment is only temporary, as long as he suffers for this period of time, the future will be good.Thinking of this, Xue Ya couldn't help showing a smile, and kissed He Xulan's face a few more times.His relatives are disorganized, like a puppy.After the kiss, Xue Ya was about to tuck into the quilt to sleep, but was suddenly suppressed by He Xulan.

"Well, brother, don't we have to get up early tomorrow?" Xue Ya felt that He Xulan was touching him.

He Xulan's hand didn't stop, "Only once."

Maybe Xue Ya hadn't done it for a long time, so she half-pushed and half-complied. He still remembered that Yi Yefeng slept next door, so he didn't dare to make too much noise, and covered his lips the whole time.

Once the round was over, Xue Ya was extremely sleepy, and when He Xulan helped him wipe his body, she fell asleep completely.

Then, he had a dream.

The place in the dream seems to be a palace, the palace is very gorgeous, the diamond-patterned carpet, the ice silk gauze, and the bead curtains used as partitions are made of flawless sea pearls in series. the sound of.

Suddenly, there were hurried footsteps, and Xue Ya heard the door open.

"Why are you here?" someone asked.

Another person replied, "We lost."

"What did you say?" The voice of the previous person suddenly raised.

"He Xulan lost."

The previous person seemed to have suffered a great blow, and his voice became trembling, "Impossible, he can't lose! You must be lying to me!"

"The battle report ahead is in His Majesty's hands. He Xulan's army was routed and He Xulan himself was captured alive. His Majesty has decreed that the soldiers escorting He Xulan send He Xulan to Qingchang's palace as hard labor. He will never be able to leave Qingchang again in this life."

"Xueya, wake up, we should be on our way."

Xue Ya suddenly opened his eyes, and when he saw clearly that the person in front of him was He Xulan, he immediately sat up and hugged him, "Brother!"

He Xulan was stunned for a moment, then hugged Xueya back, "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"

Nightmare?

Yes, he was just dreaming that He Xulan lost, wait, he dreamed that He Xulan lost.

Xue Ya froze completely, and He Xulan called him several times before he managed to recover.

"Why this expression? Was the dream scary?" He Xulan took the clothes beside the bed and put them on for Xue Ya. After putting them on, she was still dazed when she saw people, so she couldn't help but frowned, "Xue Ya?"

Xue Ya met He Xulan's eyes, sobbed and started crying.

Yi Yefeng listened to the intermittent crying inside all morning, silently picked up the water bag next to him and threw it in.He Xulan was alarmed by the sound of the water bag being thrown in. He turned around and found that it was a water bag, then turned back and wiped the tears off Xue Ya's face with a handkerchief.

"It hurts badly? Let me see?" He Xulan whispered in Xue Ya's ear.

Xue Ya shook her head, then nodded again, and finally said sobbingly: "It's not because of this."

"What's the reason?" He Xulan saw that Xue Ya wouldn't let him see, so he could only pour a glass of water over, "Drink first."

Seeing the water glass, Xue Ya stopped crying suddenly. He took the water that He Xulan handed over, drank a large glass slowly, and continued to cry.He couldn't explain to He Xulan why he was crying, he was too uncomfortable.

He kept crying until he couldn't cry anymore, and then he managed to hold back his tears.Xue Ya, who was tired from crying, climbed onto He Xulan's lap and sat down, her little fox eyes were swollen from crying.

"elder brother."

"Ok?"

"If you are a hard laborer, will you have enough to eat?"

He Xulan didn't understand why Xue Ya suddenly asked about hard labor, but he still answered, "Should be able to eat enough."

"Then is there any meat to eat every day?" Xue Ya asked again.

He Xulan thought for a while, "Not necessarily."

He Xulan could only pat Xue Ya's back lightly and coaxed: "Okay, stop crying, if you cry again, you won't be able to open your eyes, they are already swollen, you Want to see it?"

"do not want!"

"Okay, don't watch, then you are not allowed to cry."

Xue Ya tried her best to hold back her tears, and whispered, "Brother, I have a total of 22 gold pieces. Let's go to Jiangnan to buy a small house. The remaining gold should be used sparingly. It should be enough for a long time." He paused After a while, "But there are only me and my brother, and I can't take Yi Yefeng with me. He eats so much that I can't afford it."

When it came to being unable to support her, Xue Ya still couldn't hold back her tears.

Woo hoo, his gold.
