Wu Yu

In the courtyard of the Liu Mansion.

Inside the house, Xie Lingyu was sleeping with his clothes on, and there was still no warm body around him, allowing him to fall asleep soundly. He tossed and turned, and simply got up and picked up a pen to meditate, and before he knew it, it was dawn.

Suddenly, there was a sound of familiar footsteps, and the door was pushed open. He raised his eyes and saw the person he was thinking about unexpectedly.

Qingqiu Jue stood at the door with his back to the light, looked carefully at the person holding the pen, and after a while he smiled, "The prescription is here."

--I am back.

Xie Lingyu's eyes were clear, and at this moment, his eyes were slightly rounded. When the brush fell, the ink stained his green robe, which was as elegant as ink painting. He didn't care about it. He hurried forward to hug Qingqiu Jue, but suddenly hesitate.

He stretched out his hands without embarrassment. Fortunately, someone was holding his wrist. Qingqiu Jue soaked in the attic all day long, and was tainted with a faint smell of herbs. Holding his back, it was a greedy gesture that she hadn't even noticed.

Qingqiu Jue drooped his eyes, his hands tightened a bit, the faint morning light seemed a little ambiguous in this scene.

"Yunlou Yunlou...uh."

Suddenly, a pleasantly surprised voice sounded, disrupting the strange atmosphere, and the sky seemed to brighten suddenly. Xie Lingyu came back to his senses, feeling guilty for some reason, and subconsciously took three steps back, his heart beating like a drum for a moment.

Qingqiu Jue hugged him empty, gently stroked it with his hanging fingers, and looked to the side with an inexplicable face of Meng Yi.

Meng Yi is really reliable these days, he takes good care of little Asu, and he can also take care of household chores by the way. Not only did he just want to announce the good news when he got the news of the prescription, but he didn't expect to let people get ahead of him!

Yunlou is still hugging this dog thief. When did they get along so well?

Seeing that Meng Yi's eyes gradually became bitter, Xie Lingyu immediately stepped forward to give him a hug, and patted him on the back by the way, "Ziyue, you also heard about it?"

When Meng Yi heard it, he completely forgot what happened just now, and said cheerfully: "Naturally, everyone knows the news now, you don't know how excited those doctors are!"

Meng Yi danced and danced for him to imitate, the smile in his eyes was as bright as stars, although Xie Lingyu didn't see it with his own eyes, but seeing the joy in Meng Yi's eyes, he shook his head helplessly.

How could that be imitation, it was obvious that he himself was the same.

The people who knew about it were so excited that they patted on the neighbor's door and shouted. The market was bustling with activity. The news of the prescription passed through alleys and alleys in a short time. After sweeping away the condensed atmosphere, every household was finally opened and closed for a long time. Open the door of the sun, and the bright light suddenly rushed into the yard and seeped into the corner.

Xie Lingyu immediately summoned County Magistrate Liu and asked him to advertise the prescription. After the doctors in the attic got excited, they devoted themselves to medicinal herbs again. Now Nanling City has a great demand for medicine, and they have to make medicine. After a lot of time.

Qingqiu Jue didn't go to the attic anymore, he handed over the prescription to the old man to help check it out, and stayed in Liu's mansion by himself to deploy the Nanling plague plan with Xie Lingyu.

They drew a map of Nanling on the paper. Qingqiu Jue raised his pen and circled the place where the word Fanzhen was written. But Xie Lingyu nodded, understanding what he meant, "Take Fanzhen as the center, extend in all directions, and control serious areas first, is that what you mean?"

Qingqiu Jue looked at him, and said with a slight smile: "Well, the one who knows me is Yunlou."

Xie Lingyu coughed lightly, Ruyu's face rose with enthusiasm, and she felt a little secretly happy, and she replied vaguely, "Mmm..."

The prescription was named "Huangu Pill". As the name suggests, the medicine is in the shape of a black pill and smells slightly bitter, implying a new look and rebirth of dead bones.

Xie Lingyu sent a letter to the capital, and the news that the prescription had been completed spread to the capital, causing another commotion. Many people had already secretly tried to win over Xie's family, but Prime Minister Xie lightly let it go with a few words.

The plague in Fanzhen has eased a lot. Fortunately, more people have waited for the "Huangu Pill". Those with milder symptoms have already left Zhenxi to reunite with their relatives. Add a few other medicines for health care.

Even so, there were still terminally ill people who could not survive the plague. The poison was poisoned in their hearts, and they could only leave with tears in their eyes.

A few more days.

Nanling was in a hurry everywhere. Although Xie Lingyu was tired, he did not show his face, and sat firmly in the front hall of the Liu residence. Whenever he was not sure about taking risks, there would always be someone beside him A definite answer.

Decisive and sharp.

He looked sideways, and met a pair of indifferent phoenix eyes, Qingqiu Jue's eyes were deep, sitting quietly beside Xie Lingyu, like a big tree that would not fall down.

Xie Lingyu would hesitate for a moment before making a decision when it was difficult to make a decision, but Qingqiu Jue would only categorically state the result. The strange thing is that when they seldom argue, they always seem to be able to make a tacit understanding between the two choices Make compromises and choose the one that suits you best.

Sometimes Xie Lingyu was exhausted, one moment he was still chewing white steamed buns, the next moment he fell on the table and fell into a deep sleep, and when he woke up again, he saw himself lying on the table, and there was a tall and straight figure standing in front of the desk not far away. In the figure, Qingqiu Jue handled the affairs calmly, his face was expressionless, as if he was not tired.

At this time, Xie Lingyu would stand quietly by his side, and the two of them dealt with small and big trivial matters together. Officials came and went, the sky brightened and then darkened. I understand the feeling of not knowing what night and what night.

Fortunately, open your eyes, one day.

The street market in Fan Town is back to bustling, the people are going to the market as usual, the children are playing and playing in the streets and alleys, and the west of the town is empty, only the servants sweeping the fallen leaves and cobwebs are left.

In Luomei Mountain, new grass grew on the land where the flames passed by. Men from neighboring towns cut firewood together, carrying bundles of firewood on their backs, chatting and laughing down the mountain, and said goodbye to each other at the fork in the road.

The number of officials entering and leaving the Liu residence has decreased a lot. Xie Lingyu looked at the map, and there were only two small circles left on it, but they did not relax the tight string.

Xie Lingyu was writing a letter to the capital as usual in the front hall. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a person coming in a hurry. When he raised his eyes, he found that it was the calm General Sun. The general was not as expressionless as before. He pursed his lips, There was a genuine smile in his eyes.

After Sun Qian escorted Prefect Lu and Prefect Nanling to Beijing, he rushed back and traveled back and forth across Nanling. He came back this time, and brought good news that lived up to everyone's expectations.

"Thank you, look."

He stuffed the stack of letters in his hand.

Xie Lingyu watched, his eyes widened suddenly, and he glanced at him in surprise. Sun Qian nodded at him affirmatively.

A strong sourness suddenly surged in his heart, Xie Lingyu eagerly and carefully looked through the letters one by one.

Everything is fine in the fishing town and we are about to return.

Everything is fine in Yangzhen, and we are about to return home.

Su Yuan is fine...

Jinbei...

Ronan...

He carefully read each letter, even though the content was almost the same, Xie Lingyu raised his head in ecstasy, and Sun Qian said to him solemnly: "There is no more plague in Nanling."

Xie Lingyu patted him on the shoulder fiercely, "Thank you!"

Then he lifted his footsteps, his clothes fluttered in the air, Xie Lingyu ran all the way with the letter, the door of the yard opened, he came into the house smoothly, and he shouted ecstatically, "Ah..."

The next moment, Xie Lingyu shut his mouth abruptly, and the ecstatic expression on his face was suddenly taken aback, and he paused there.

There was a man sitting in front of the desk in the room. He closed his eyes and took a nap, his back was straight, and he was still holding a pen in one hand, and the ink had already smudged half of the paper.

Qingqiu Jue sat there quietly, his clear phoenix eyes were slightly closed, the blue color in his eyes became more and more obvious, he seemed to be tireless in the usual days, but he just sat in front of the desk and fell asleep sleepily and restrainedly.

It turned out that he wasn't tired, but was just holding on.

Xie Lingyu's heart seemed to be gripped by something, he slowly put down the hand holding the letter, tiptoed to Qingqiu Jue's side, found a chair at random and sat down.

If you look at it from behind, you can't tell that the person sitting in front of the case has fallen asleep. Xie Lingyu didn't wake him up, and moved closer to trace his eyebrows and eyes with his eyes.

Over and over again, not for the first time.

It was as if he wanted to imprint his face deeply into his heart.

After an unknown amount of time, Qingqiu Jue's hand loosened, and Xie Lingyu reached out to support it with a quick reaction. A large part of his sleeve was covered with ink, and his hand held Qingqiu Jue's shoulder firmly.

The slender and thick eyelashes fluttered slightly, and they slowly opened, his eyes were full of confusion, clearly the person who fell asleep was Qingqiu Jue, but Xie Lingyu felt like he had just woken up from a dream.

He was stiff, recalling what he had done just now, he felt more and more ridiculous.

how come……

Xie Lingyu wanted to suppress that strange heartbeat, but his body sang against him, his heart beating like a drum, beating again and again, he stood up guiltily, fearing that the people around him would listen to him.

Qingqiu Jue closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, it was clear. Seeing Xie Lingyu's flustered expression, he frowned slightly, "What's wrong?"

"I……"

This sentence made Xie Lingyu even more flustered. He didn't know where to put his hands and feet. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the letter in his hand and handed it over like a treasure. "Good news, look!"

He showed a sincere smile, Qingqiu Jue took it suspiciously, after a few glances, the fatigue between his brows dissipated, replaced by his usual idle smile.

He exhaled, "Finally."

Xie Lingyu only glanced at it, then looked away, looked down at the ink stains on his cuffs, Qingqiu Jue noticed, and looked at the ink splashes before the case, said helplessly: "Go and change clothes."

"Okay." Xie Lingyu was eager to run quickly, and hurried to the inner room. Qingqiu Jue thought he was in a hurry to change clothes, so he didn't think much about it.

Only he himself could hear the still beating heartbeat, Xie Lingyu turned around and a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw his pillow was pressed against Qingqiu Jue's pillow, he felt guilty and wanted to reach out his hand to move it inside.

But I don't know why, I can't do it.
