Let's talk about today

26. Once the sea was too difficult for water

Xu San still went out the next morning.Mrs. Xu couldn't stop her, she just sighed.

Xia Houyuan knew that even if the war really started, life would still go on.Li Jinchao's health was better than the day before, but he was still very weak.

Mrs. Xu grabbed some kudzu root, ephedra, osmanthus twigs and a few jujubes to make a soup. She couldn't tell whether it was soup or medicine, but she poured several large bowls for Li Jinchao.

Li Jinchao had no expression on his face, but was anxious in his heart.

His family's shop can't be cleaned up in a few days. Once the foreign enemies break through the border, the consequences will be disastrous.It is still a few days away from Muzhou City, and the fear is that when they arrive in Muzhou City, the enemy troops will also attack.Moreover, they still don't know what happened to Jiang Leqi and Liu Shangbai...

So what Li Jinzhao can do is to cooperate with Xia Houyuan and Mrs. Xu to dispel the wind and cold no matter what methods they use...

When Xu San came back in the evening, his face was really gloomy.

"Brother Xu, how is it outside?"

Xu San looked at Xia Houyuan and shook his head, "It is said that he has broken through three levels in a row..."

This result was within Xia Houyuan's expectations, so he just sneered, "It must be except for the internal thieves."

Xu Sandao: "It's also spread outside."

Xia Houyuan was silent for a while, and said, "Let's take a step and see."

On the fourth day, Li Jinchao finally recovered under the care of everyone.Therefore, Li Jinzhao finally couldn't wait to leave.

Xia Houyuan couldn't hold back him, and Xu San was also worried, so he proposed to take them out of Suiliang Mountain.This time it couldn't be compared to when Li Jinchao came here, he had no intention of enjoying the scenery, and it was only afternoon when he arrived in the city.

The goods must be re-entered. Li Jinzhao went to the inn to ask Jiang Leqi and Liu Shangbai's whereabouts, but the shopkeeper said in surprise: "You two young masters went to Suiliang Mountain a few days ago, and you and Jiang and Liu two young masters lost their After trying to get in touch, Mr. Jiang sent people to look for it several times, but they found nothing, so I thought something happened to you two!"

Li Jinzhao said anxiously: "Then what about them!"

The shopkeeper suddenly pointed behind him, "Look! Mr. Liu is back!"

Li Jinzhao turned his head suddenly, and sure enough, he saw Liu Shangbai running from the street, shouting his name.

"Jinzhao and Young Lord!! It's great that you're all right!" Liu Shangbai gave Li Jinzhao a firm hug...but the hug failed because Xia Houyuan blocked him, "Jinzhao suffered from the wind and cold a few days ago, and he hasn't recovered yet... ..."

Liu Shangbai withdrew his hand embarrassingly.

Of course Li Jinzhao couldn't see their small movements, so he hurriedly pulled him and said, "Shang Bai, where is Le Qi?"

Liu Shangbai replied hesitantly: "Brother Le Qi...Brother Le Qi, he...he...he has joined the army!"

As soon as his words fell, Xia Houyuan laughed.

Li Jinzhao naturally didn't believe it, "Don't make trouble!"

Liu Shangbai wanted to cry, "I really didn't make trouble! A few days ago, people from Xiliang invaded our southern border of Daxiang and broke through five passes. It happened that the day before, people from the imperial court recruited troops to expand the army. Le Qi saw it and was furious. It's hard to stop, and I went to join the army with dozens of big men!"

Li Jinzhao was dumbfounded after hearing this, he had no idea that Jiang Leqi, who had always spent his days and nights and claimed to be the "No. [-] rich man in Muzhou City", would join the army!

Poor Mr. Jiang is not breathing well, and he fainted from fright when he heard the news!

Li Jinzhao was out of breath for a moment, coughed violently, and walked out while speaking, "What a nonsense! I'll go and bring him back!"

Liu Shangbai said: "It's useless! I persuaded him many times the day before yesterday, but he insisted on going to the border because he couldn't bring back nine cows! There have been too many casualties in the past few days, and they already left yesterday!"

Li Jinzhao was so frightened that his eyes almost went dark, but fortunately Xia Houyuan supported him.Xia Houyuan didn't want him to be frightened again, so he said to Liu Shangbai, "Okay, let's rest first."

Liu Shangbai was a little disconcerted, and was about to go upstairs, but Li Jinzhao held him back.

"Today, what's the matter?"

"Take some silver notes and bring them down."

Liu Shangbai blinked, and finally saw that there was another person next to Li Jinchao and Xia Houyuan, and it was Xu San.Liu Shangbai was not stupid, so he naturally thought that Xu San must have taken care of them these days.So I didn't dare to slack off, and quickly went to the bank note.

Li Jinzhao asked Xu San to accept the bank note after a lot of talking. Xu San refused to accept it at first, but seeing his determined expression, he had no choice but to accept it.

Xia Houyuan wanted to keep Xu San and let him leave tomorrow morning, but he thought Mrs. Xu was alone on the mountain, so he didn't say anything.

The meal in the evening was very light.Xia Houyuan was naturally thinking about Li Jinchao, and Liu Shangbai ate with pain on his face.Although Li Jinchao repeatedly stated that he had nothing to do with him, under Xia Houyuan's iron-fisted leadership, Liu Shangbai could not eat the sauce.

Li Jinzhao's day was naturally very worrying.Thinking of Master Jiang's sad face, he couldn't sleep at night, and he was even more worried than knowing the news that there was going to be a war.

Just when he couldn't sleep at night, a candle flame appeared outside the door. The candle flame floated from the left side of his room and stopped in front of his door.

"Who?"

"it's me."

While Xia Houyuan was answering, he had already pushed open the door.Li Jinzhao didn't have the habit of locking the door, it wasn't careless.

Xia Houyuan came to his bed with a candle in his hand, stretched out his hand to touch his forehead, and sighed, "I don't have a fever at all." Ever since Li Jinzhao's fever subsided and he always had a low fever, Xia Houyuan was always afraid of getting a fever.

"Actually, my body is not that delicate."

Xia Houyuan raised his eyebrows, approached him and asked in a low voice: "Can Mr. Li stay with you tonight?"

"Why?" Li Jinchao leaned on the bed with one hand and chuckled.

Xia Houyuan blew out the candle, and touched Li Jinzhao's face under the hazy moonlight. Li Jinzhao didn't respond, so he kissed Li Jinzhao's face, "I want to be with you."

Li Jinzhao was about to move the place inside for him, but Xia Houyuan pressed him down, "Don't move."

After a while, Xia Houyuan lifted the quilt and lay beside him very comfortably and naturally.

Li Jinzhao said with a smile: "Young Master, aren't you afraid that I will infect you?"

Xia Houyuan turned around and hugged him, seeming to be a little sleepy, "It's what I wish for."

Li Jinzhao smiled and sneered "Shameless" and closed his eyes.

I'm afraid there will be more complicated things tomorrow, he has the right to steal half a day off.

In the darkness, the half-asleep and half-awake young master suddenly said, "What did you just say?"

"..."

Because they had to pack their luggage, Li Jinchao and Xia Houyuan rushed early.Just when he opened the door, he saw Liu Shangbai carrying a burden, slightly bending his index and middle fingers to knock on the door.

Both were stunned.

"You..." Li Jinchao pointed to the baggage on Liu Shangbai's back.

"You..." Liu Shangbai pointed to Li Jinchao behind Li Jinchao.

Xia Houyuan came out leisurely, and shook Li Jinchao's hand, "Do you understand?"

Liu Shangbai opened his eyes wide, with an expression of disbelief, but he said: "Oh... I understand..."

Li Jinzhao didn't care about their riddles, and asked in confusion, "Shang Bai, what are you..."

Liu Shangbai straightened his expression, pulled the burden, "I'm here to say goodbye."

Li Jinzhao was dumbfounded, the development of the matter was completely unreasonable.

"Say... goodbye?"

Liu Shangbai smiled, "You and Young Master are going back to Muzhou City right now?"

Li Jinzhao nodded, "Naturally. Don't you want to go back? I'm afraid the business will not be able to be done due to the raging war outside..."

"I'm going to the imperial capital." Liu Shangbai interrupted.

"Oh? Although the imperial capital is more prosperous than Muzhou City, once the army of Xiliang people approaches the city, the imperial capital will cause great disaster."

Liu Shangbai shook his head, and said seriously: "I'll go to the imperial capital to find Miss Qinghong."

That's right, Li Jinzhao has forgotten the purpose of Liu Shangbai's trip, as an elder brother, he should have a reason to remind him to go back.But Liu Shangbai was so stubborn towards Qinghong, he choked these words in his throat, couldn't swallow, couldn't say, so he could only stare at him blankly.

Xia Houyuan was surprised, "Are you sure you want to go to the imperial capital to find Qinghong?"

Liu Shangbai nodded.

"Miss Qinghong's origin is unknown, and she is unpredictable, have you never doubted it?"

But Liu Shangbai smiled, his eyes were so bright, it seemed that the colorful and bright spring was reflected in his eyes.

"I just know that I like her."

"The first time I saw her, I knew that I might only like her in this life."

Xia Houyuan interrupted mercilessly, "That's just a possibility. You will meet better ones."

"No more," Liu Shangbai said with some disappointment, "If I don't escape and return to Muzhou City, I will follow my father's instructions and marry the daughter of Wang Yuan's family."

"Is that why you didn't go back?"

Liu Shangbai thought for a while, "Half the reason. Once the sea was too difficult for water, except Wushan is not a cloud." He pointed at Li Jinchao who was beside Xia Houyuan, and smiled with some ambiguity, "Young Lord, I feel the same way you do. ah."

Xia Houyuan now knew that what to say might not be of much use, so he just cupped his fists and smiled calmly, "I wish you a beautiful return as soon as possible."

Liu Shangbai responded with a hearty smile.

Neither Li Jinzhao nor Xia Houyuan could keep Liu Shangbai. When he was far away, Li Jinzhao suddenly realized that all of Liu Shangbai's belongings had fallen into the water, and hurriedly tried to catch up. Xia Houyuan came out of Jiang Leqi's room slowly, Slowly said: "You don't need to worry about it. Le Qi's belongings have already been taken away by Shang Bai."

Li Jinzhao was stunned for a while, then said helplessly, "That's fine."

The author has something to say: Actually... Actually, I wrote it yesterday... It's just that the Internet suddenly went offline...
