The general's wife is sick

"Master, how are you recently?"

After leaving the capital, Ji Liu was very annoyed by the title "young madam", so he asked Cheng Cheng and sister Chun to change their words and call him young master in front of him.

Both Cheng Cheng and Sister Chun are not yet married, they used to serve Ji Liu, and sometimes joked with him about the red mark on his body, but now seeing Ji Liu's sloppy footsteps every day, his eyes are blue and black, and he walks unsteadily, his heart feels sad Start drumming.

Why is it that the person who has become a relative seems to be seriously ill?

Ji Liu gritted his teeth, Xiong Jinghai is a bastard, his usual gentleness is all feigned, without his elders by his side, his true nature is revealed.

He is a general who went to battle to kill the enemy, so how can his physical strength be compared to his frail twins?

He is not inflatable, how can he use it like this? !

In the morning, he checked his own pulse, and it took only half a month. His pulse was already weak and his body was weak.

"No problem, I heard that the soldiers practice in the army every day before dawn. This is a very good move. From now on, all the people in the mansion will start to strengthen their bodies. They don't want to fight the enemy, they just want to be healthy. "

After finishing speaking, Ji Liu murmured a few words in Cheng Cheng's ear, and after a while, he raised his head, "Okay, you can go!"

Sister Chun supported his other arm, watched Cheng run out, she asked, "Master, you look so weak, if the old lady comes, she will definitely feel distressed."

Ji Liu's whole body stiffened immediately. Xiong Jinghai had entangled him so tightly these past few days. He had completely forgotten about the arrival of the old lady and Master Sima. If Sister Chun hadn't reminded him, he would have greeted the two with this appearance. people.

"Brother Zhu went to the barracks?"

"Well, I'll go after breakfast."

During the trip to the northwest, Zhu Changyuan was the only one that Ji Liu sent along with him.

"Take me back to the house, Sister Chun, you go and watch at the door, if Brother Zhu comes back, you should report it as soon as possible."

Ji Liu's face was as black as ink, he definitely couldn't let the old lady and Master Sima see him with kidney deficiency.

It never occurred to him that Xiong Jinghai was actually a stumbling block in his grand plan!

In the evening, Xiong Jinghai came back from the military camp. After he came to the northwest, the spring breeze was blowing on his face and the willows were rippling all day long, as if his whole body was bathed in a kind of warm sunshine. Even looking at Xie Kun these few days, he felt that he was much smarter.

Xie Kun, who was shot lying down, said, "???"

The big callused palm pushed the bedroom door.

Can't move!

Ok?

Xiong Jinghai froze, and pushed again, but it really couldn't be pushed.

Standing at the door of the bedroom, Xiong Jinghai stared. Was he locked out?

"Liu'er? Ma'am? Are you in the house?"

"Go to the study to sleep! Before grandma and master come, you give me a good reflection on what I have done in the past few days!"

Ji Liu was lying on the bed, working hard for many days, now he only felt very tired, and he was unwilling to move while lying on the bed.

There was no movement outside the house, Ji Liu couldn't help frowning, when did Xiong Jinghai become so obedient?

He boiled the tonic with the ingredients today, if Xiong Jinghai knew that he was drinking the tonic behind his back, he would definitely laugh at him.

Let him go to the study to reflect. First, he can get rest. Second, he is also a man. Xiong Jinghai is active all day long, but he is so weak that he needs to use tonics to replenish his body. of.

The window moved!

Ji Liu immediately flew out a silver needle. The silver needle was small and slightly long. It was nailed straight to the window frame, penetrating three points into the wood, and swayed from side to side.

Ji Liu held the second and third silver needles between his fingertips, vowing to stop Xiong Jinghai before he jumped out of the window.

"Madam is really good at tricks!" Xiong Jinghai opened the window, and a tall and burly figure appeared outside the window.

"Letting you sleep in the study for a few days is to protect you. If you insist on entering, the medicine on the window may be enough to make you quiet for a whole month."

"It's good to be able to hug Madam." On the way to the northwest, Xiong Jinghai took away all of Ji Liu's medicine bottles without anyone noticing. The trace, I think what Ji Liu said at this time has some credibility.

But, this is his wife, his daughter-in-law, why let him sleep in the study when he already has a daughter-in-law?

It doesn't make sense!

Regardless of Ji Liu's obstruction, Xiong Jinghai jumped into the house from the window, and while taking off his clothes, he said with a glib mouth, "I didn't expect to have to climb the window after getting married. Madam misses the day and night meetings before?"

The needle in his hand was not thrown out after all, Ji Liu smiled softly, hid the silver needle, his peach blossom face was blooming, and he said to him, "Since you have come in, you should have a good rest. It is tiring to practice soldiers all day long. sleep."

Speaking of Ji Liu's parting out part of his quilt, this move of 300 taels of silver here made Xiong Jinghai's heart pound.

His eyebrows twitched, "Liu Er, are you telling the truth, there is really medicine on the window?"

"What do you think?" Ji Liu glanced at him sideways, Xiong Jinghai's nose felt hot, and he was fine.The worm is on the brain, it doesn't matter whether he takes medicine or not, this is his daughter-in-law, his wife, the matchmaker is marrying, and she is greeted by eight palanquins, "Madam said that peony flowers can be romantic even if they die under the peony flower!"

Kneeling on the side of the bed with one leg, Xiong Jinghai waved down the bed curtain, and got into the bed, only to hear Ji Liu's out-of-control cry from the bed curtain, "What are you doing! You are not afraid that you will not be able to leave for a month. What's the matter?! Xiong Jinghai !"

Xiong Jinghai laughed, "Don't be afraid, madam is my best medicine! Besides, there is always a price to pay for being naughty, madam, right?"

"Crack, snap!"

"You dare to hit me, Xiong Jinghai, even my grandmother never touched me when I grew up..."

"Snapped!"

"Your uncle!"

"My uncle is also Madam's elder now, if he insults the elders casually, Madam should say whether he should hit him or not?"

"Snapped!"

In the early morning of the second day, Ji Liu failed to get up from the bed, stretched out a white arm from the bed curtain, dotted with blue and purple marks, groped for the clothes from the ground and dragged them back to the bed.

He was just fooling Xiong Jinghai with the so-called not taking the medicine for one month, but he didn't expect to be spotted by this ruffian.

After putting on her clothes with trembling thighs, Ji Liu gave a wry smile, making you feel uneasy, you deserve this result!

Dragging his "sick" body, Ji Liu decided to stay away from this daily hair.The color of love.Wolf, he had to make himself busy, busier, busier in order to avoid Xiong Jinghai's unusually strong energy.

Once upon a time, he also liked this kind of skin-to-skin and straightforward way of expressing his feelings. He never expected that in just a few months, it would cause such a big change in his thoughts!

Cheng Cheng and Sister Chun sat with him in the carriage, without Ji Liu's anxiety, they were in a calm mood, "Master, where are we going?"

"Today, let's go to Yingkou Town. Look carefully. How is it different from Zhucheng?"

Cheng opened a gap in the car curtain, and Ji Liu followed his hand to look out of the car.

The carriage walked slowly on the road. There is little rain and heavy wind and sand all year round. The road is a dirt road and the road surface is uneven. The carriage bumps back and forth.

"This place is much worse than Zhucheng. You see, young master, there is not a single decent shop in this town, and every one looks dilapidated." Cheng said.

Sister Chun guarded the car window opposite the two, "Indeed, young master, this place is not much better than Yuzhou. Along the way, from Yuzhou to Qizhou, everyone's living conditions seem to be the same, the same poverty .”

"Get out of the car and have a look." Ji Liu rubbed his waist and sat upright. The living environment here is indeed worse than he imagined.

The carriage stopped, and Ji Liu, who was wearing a cap, got out of the car, and the three of them walked from the end of the street to the street, shopping from shop to shop.

Coming out of the rice shop, Ji Liu's expression was very bad. He knew that life in the northwest was poor, but he never thought that the brown rice and barley mixed with rice husks and stones were the top-quality food here!

Sister Chun's pretty face was also full of sorrow, "The food here is too bad."

They exchanged glances with the ingredients, and when they came from the capital to the northwest, besides the carriages carrying Ji Liu's daily necessities in the carriages behind General Xiong's team, the sacks full of grain in the other two carriages must be food, otherwise, where would they come from? Daily refined rice edible?

Ji Liu didn't speak, and said directly, "Let's go, let's go to the next one."

The three of them were about to go to the next house, when suddenly there was a rapid and high-pitched horn sound from the city gate.

The sparse crowd around heard the sound of the horn and immediately scattered away. Behind them, the boy from the rice shop and the boss behind the counter hurriedly closed the door. Seeing that Ji Liu and the other three were still standing at the door, they kindly reminded them to say , "Those prairie bandits are here again! Go home quickly, the streets are not safe!"

After a few breaths, no one was seen on the street, and every house was closed and locked.

Cheng Cheng and Sister Chun stood beside Ji Liu, "Master, let's go back quickly!"

"No, I believe Ah Hai will never let the rogues enter the city. Brother Zhu, let's go to the city gate to see the situation!" Ji Liu touched his cuffs, and in the wide cuff pockets was his self-defense powder. Huan took out a few silver needles from the seams of his clothes and hid them between his fingers.

Hearing Ji Liu's call, Zhu Changyuan quietly landed behind the three of them, "Master, I'm afraid it's not safe to go now."

Ji Liu started to take out two fat belly porcelain bottles and stuffed them into the hands of Cheng Cheng and Sister Chun, "This is poisonous powder, if you encounter danger, just spit it into the other party's eyes at the right time."

The two nodded in unison, without showing a trace of panic on their faces.

This well-trained appearance made Zhu Changyuan quite speechless, "..."

Zhu Changyuan escorted the three of them to move towards the gate of the city. The street was empty except for the passing wind shaking the paper lanterns in front of the shop. The deserted street instantly revealed a smell of decay.

This is nothing more than harassment by bandits, and this panicked defense appeared in the town.

Although Yingkou Town is a town, it is the most frontier in the northwest. There is a tall city wall standing here, and the endless grassland is outside the city gate.

Many years ago, there were people coming and going here. Nomads drove flocks of cattle and sheep here to exchange their daily necessities.But gradually, these people are no longer satisfied with normal transactions. They have no fixed place but regard the Yingkou people who live in one place as fat sheep to be slaughtered.When the appetite grows, so does the courage. Small groups of rogues often ride into the town on horseback, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of crimes.

Later, the Chang'an Dynasty was established, and a tall city wall was built here to block most of the riots.But the grassland is vast, and this group of people is more familiar with the terrain of the grassland than the locals. They often lose sight of the bandits after chasing them into the grassland. They are like a cancer that cannot be eradicated. The trouble of bandits has continued for so many years.

The closer you get to the city gate, the more noisy the voices become. Ji Liu recognized at a glance that the person behind the city gate, surrounded by people and surrounded by blood, was Chen Guan.

"Brother Chen!" Chen Guan is three years older than Xiong Jinghai. He is Xiong Jinghai's eldest brother, playmate and confidant since he was a child. He is calm and capable.

Beyond words, Ji Liu also respects him quite a lot.

"But Young Madam, why are you here?" Chen Guan covered the wound on his chest and raised his head to recognize Cheng and Sister Chun beside Ji Liu.
