After waiting for two days, the Shen residence was calm and no one came to visit.Ling Xi went to bed early after drinking the medicine every night, but he couldn't sleep for the past two days.

The servants took the medicine bowl away, turned off the lights, and left Ling Xi alone on the couch, staring at his eyes in the darkness, without any sleepiness.

Youdao is a habit that comes naturally. He stayed in the mansion for three years. Although he occasionally missed the way he used to be, he was able to meditate and be stable.But once an exception is made and some hope is born, it can't be taken back.

If there is one, there are two. I don't know if Mr. Yi took his temporary joke to heart.Although it was a joke, it was also half sincere.

Thinking of this, Ling Xi smiled helplessly, there has been no movement for two days, maybe he turned around and went to work, how could he remember that there is such a number one person.

He raised his hand to touch the head of the bed, there was a sword hanging there, he sat up with his body propped up, took down the sword, and rubbed it in his palm.

This sword has been with him since the day he became a teacher, even though he has no chance to use it now, he still keeps it by his side as a thought of the past.

When he asked his master for orders to go down the mountain, after his senior brother heard about it, he didn't rest much for half a month, so he hurriedly forged a sword and gave it to him, which was the Lingyuan sword in his hand.

The fledgling young man is at the time when he is full of enthusiasm.He once swore that the ones killed by Lingyuan's sword must be evildoers, so that he could live up to his master's careful teachings.And he did.

Suddenly hearing a noise outside the window, and then a gust of cold wind blowing, Ling Xi clenched the Lingyuan sword tightly, "Who is coming?"

As soon as the words fell, a shadow flashed to the bedside, "Come to fulfill the appointment to appreciate the moon."

Hearing the sound, Ling Xi froze for a moment, "Young Master Yi?"

"it's me."

This person didn't send invitations, he didn't go through the main entrance, but he came in through the window in the middle of the night, maybe he has some eccentricity?

He put the Lingyuan sword under his pillow, "Why is Mr. Yi like this?"

"You have to ask your good brother."

After thinking about it for a while, Ling Xi understood the reason. It turned out that it wasn't that this person didn't take it seriously, but that he was rejected by his elder brother.

"But I'm leaving with you now. If they find out, they'll look for me everywhere." He didn't want to cause trouble like last time.

"Before dawn, I will send you back, and no one will notice."

Ling Xi thought about it, and felt that this plan was feasible, and immediately grabbed the opponent's wrist, "In this way, there will be Mr. Lao Yi."

The next moment, Yun Yi pulled the man into his arms, used his body skills, and swept out of Shen's mansion silently.

At this hour, there were not many shops that were still closed, and Ling Xi was being taken along, riding the wind all the way, not knowing where she would end up.

Finally, Yun Yi put him down, Ling Xi looked around, they were on the top floor of the water pavilion by the lake.Looking down by the moonlight, you can still see the occasional passing boat.

"sit."

Ling Xi turned around, and there was a sapphire jug and a one-horned luminous cup on the pear blossom wooden table.Yun Yi poured himself and drank it, the aroma of the wine slowly drifted over, it was completely different from what he smelled in Nanyue Tower, with a hint of sweetness.

"What kind of wine is this?"

Yun Yi raised his eyes, and the moonlight poured down on his face, maybe it was because of drinking alcohol, it made people see a little tenderness.

"Peach Blossom Brew."

Ling Xi looked around, but couldn't find another wine cup, "Why is there only one cup?"

Yunyi drank another glass of wine, "Can you drink?"

"It's not a problem to drink a little." Especially the smell of this wine is not strong.

Yunyi poured a cup and pushed it over, "Then just drink one cup."

Ling Xi drank it from his cup, and it was sweet and mellow, mellow but not strong, which was exactly what he wanted.

He reached out to grab the jug, but Yun Yi grabbed it first.

"It's agreed, just drink one cup." As he spoke, he not only took away the jug, but also snatched the wine glass back.

Ling Xi pursed her lips, unable to get a second glass of wine, so she had to relive the taste just now.Looking up at the full moon in the sky, he took a deep breath, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the breeze was pleasant, and it was a great blessing in life to have good wine and wine in his throat, and to have new friends by his side.

Yun Yi raised her eyes to look at Ling Xi's side face, her long eyelashes were slightly closed, the corners of her lips were lightly raised, her black hair was scattered on her shoulders, she was a bit more lazy in her elegance, and she looked more like a little fairy sneaking into the world under the moonlight.

He couldn't help looking at it for a while longer, "When did Mr. Ling come to Yangzhou?"

"I've been here for three years."

Yun Yi drank another cup, and asked casually, "Mr. Ling's surname is Ling, why do you call Mr. Shen the eldest brother?"

Ling Xi tilted her head, "Speaking of this, when I was young, my mother once saved Master Shen, and the two fell in love and became sworn brothers and sisters, so they acted as relatives."

Yun Yi turned the wine glass lightly, according to the investigation of the servants, only Ling Xi and an old woman were brought back to the mansion by Shen's mansion, and there was no one else.During the three years, Shen's mansion hid him extremely secretly, and they couldn't find out too much.

"Young Master Ling's mother also lives in the Shen residence?"

Ling Xi pulled the corners of her mouth and turned back to look at the moon, "Mother left early. We lived in a village when we were young. Later, there was a plague in the village. Many people died of the plague. Mother's health was not good. I heard it was because I was injured when I was born, and then I heard the news of my father's death, I was overly mourned, and my body was not as good as before, so I couldn't escape."

The hand holding the wine glass tightened suddenly, and Yun Yi pursed her lips slightly, "I'm sorry."

Ling Xi smiled, "It's okay, I'm very happy to be able to chat so leisurely."

Although the evening wind in spring was far worse than nine o'clock in cold winter, it was still a bit chilly after blowing for a long time, Ling Xi subconsciously closed his skirt and cuffs.

All his small movements fell into Yunyi's eyes, and immediately after that, an extra robe appeared on him.

Ling Xi looked up, "Young Master Yi, you don't have to..."

Yunyi stopped him from talking, wrapped his robe tightly around him, "I'll take you back."

According to his promise, Ling Xi was sent back to the Shen residence before dawn, without anyone noticing.

Originally, everything went well and everyone was happy, but the sky failed, and the next day, Ling Xi had a high fever that couldn't be controlled.

Ask the doctor to come and prescribe the medicine, and after feeding the medicine for a day, Ling Xi still has a high fever, which makes everyone in the Shen family very anxious.

Shen Rui paced back and forth in the outer room, "Why doesn't the medicine work after feeding it?"

The doctor hurriedly said, "Young master has suffered from some wind and cold, and it will take time for the medicine to take effect. It will be fine if you start sweating."

Shen Rui glanced at the servants who were rushing in and out, and felt even more disturbed, "Why did you suddenly have a high fever, you guys, where did you guys go last night?"

Ah Jiu stepped forward and replied, "My lord didn't go anywhere last night, he drank the medicine and went to rest early, who knows..."

Just as Shen Rui was about to ask the night guards again, he saw the robe hanging on the screen, walked over to examine it carefully, it didn't look like Lingxi's.Thinking about it again, isn't this ice-blue cloud robe belonged to that fellow?Immediately anger rose from the heart.

"What a young master of the magistrate, he's starting to go out of the way!" Shen Rui threw away his robe, and was about to leave.

"Big brother."

With only one sound, Shen Rui turned back and walked quickly to the bedside, "How is it? Tell me where you feel uncomfortable."

He probed Ling Xi's forehead, "It seems that the temperature has dropped a little."

Ling Xi was helpless, and secretly scolded herself for being so broken.His body, he thought he was recovering, but if there was a little wind, he would play him again.

"I'm fine, it's getting dark, brother, go and rest."

Shen Rui simply sat by the bed, "Brother, wait until your fever subsides before leaving."

It wasn't until the middle of the night that Ling Xi's heat slowly subsided.Although the fever was gone, the person was still in a state of depression, and fell asleep again without taking a few mouthfuls of porridge after drinking the medicine.

Shen Rui was full of resentment and couldn't get out, so without telling Ling Xi, he went to the gate of the magistrate himself.It is said to be a visit, but in fact it is to go to Xingshi to inquire about the crime.

The Shen family has always had a good meal in Yangzhou, and the prefect Xu often values ​​peace and let the Shen family get three points.Seeing that Shen Rui's expression was not good and aggressive today, he spoke politely and said courteously, "Mr. Shen, please sit down quickly. I don't know why Mr. Shen came to visit early in the morning."

Shen Rui winked at the guards, and the guards of the Shen residence immediately presented the blue robes.

"This is the son of your mansion who landed on Shen's mansion, and the original will be returned. I also ask Mr. Xu to discipline his son well, and don't go to other people's house as a guest while the moon is dark and the wind is high."

Xu Zhifu was confused when he heard this, but when he saw the robe, he became more and more startled, "Actually, this..."

"Is Young Master Shen here to look for me?"

Seeing Yunyi enter the door with his hands behind his back, Zhifu Xu got up immediately, opened his mouth, was glanced at by him, and then kept silent.

"It turns out that Mr. Yi is at the residence. You can hear it yourself, so you don't need to tell Mr. Xu. I will take my leave."

Yunyi raised his arms to block Shen Rui's way, "Why did Mr. Shen come to Xingshi early in the morning to inquire about the crime?" After finishing speaking, he paused, "Could it be that something happened to Ling Xi?"

Shen Rui was angry, "I have a high fever all day and all night, does it count as an accident?"

Yun Yi frowned upon hearing this, "Is he sick? I'll go and see him."

Now it was Shen Rui who stopped him, "Young Master Yi, take care of yourself and don't come here to provoke my younger brother. You don't need to visit the door. I will leave."

At this time, in the backyard of the Shen residence, the servants were always on alert. According to Shen Rui's instructions, they not only had to watch the gate, but also prevented anyone from climbing over the wall.

Ling Xi drank a bowl of porridge, regained some energy, did not see Shen Rui for a long time, and asked, "Why don't you see Big Brother?"

Ah Jiu rolled his eyes, giggling, "I don't know, maybe I went to discuss business. Young master, look, the slave put the peach blossoms here, okay?"

Ling Xi looked up, and saw an ink and white porcelain vase on the case at some point, with three or two peach blossom branches inserted on it.

"In this way, my lord can see the peach blossoms in the house." The more Ah Jiu looked at his masterpiece, the more satisfied he was, "Oh, yes, the servant is going to fetch the medicine."

"Don't worry, I'll bring it."

Ah Jiu stuck out her tongue, "Young Master."

Shen Rui put the medicine bowl on the round table beside the bed, "You look much better today."

"Don't worry, brother, it will be all over in a few days."

Just as Ling Xi was going to fetch the medicine, she heard someone shouting outside the door, "Report, there is someone outside the mansion asking to see you."
