The mountains and rivers are quiet and broad

The next morning, Xu Qingfeng woke up in Chen Ke's arms.

"Sleep for a while?" Chen Ke's voice was not sleepy, he rested his chin on Xu Qingfeng's head, wrapped Xu Qingfeng in his arms, and felt that the person in his arms moved, Chen Ke asked.

Xu Qingfeng, who was lying in Chen Ke's arms, was still not awake, staring at Chen Ke in a daze, shaking his head for a while.

"When is it?"

"It's still early." Chen Ke circled Xu Qingfeng and adjusted his posture slightly.

Xu Qingfeng moved accordingly, seeing the window was whitened by the light from the sky outside, struggling to remember, Chen Ke held him, and lightly kissed Xu Qingfeng on the cheek: "Lie down again..."

Xu Qingfeng was also a little reluctant to part with the warm embrace, closed his eyes and leaned on Chen Ke's arm, but said in his mouth: "Didn't you say yesterday that you want to change to rest?" The medical center is too small, although Chen Ke didn't say it, but Xu Qingfeng I know that he dislikes the bed in the hospital very much.

"Don't be in a hurry." Chen Ke deliberately coaxed Xu Qingfeng to sleep again. Xu Qingfeng lost a lot of weight. Although he was not so thin as a skeleton, it still made people feel distressed to hold him in his arms.

When Xu Qingfeng woke up, it was difficult to fall asleep again. After closing his eyes for a while, he opened them again, meeting Chen Ke's eyes.

Chen Ke's eyes were dark and black, as if he hadn't slept well, but Xu Qingfeng's facial features were still so pretty.In a trance, Xu Qingfeng overlapped the scene in front of him with Chen Ke lying in Taiheng Palace.

Chen Ke stretched out his hand and squeezed Xu Qingfeng's chin, the slight pain brought Xu Qingfeng back to his senses. "too skinny……"

Xu Qingfeng raised his hand and touched his cheek. He didn't feel how thin he was. Chen Ke took his hand, "The injury on the stomach will last at least a month."

When Xu Qingfeng changed his dressing last night, Chen Ke personally changed it for him. Chen Ke compared it with his own hand. It was a cut longer than a palm. If it was deeper, Xu Qingfeng would be ripped apart. Stomach.

Seeing Chen Ke's expression changing, Xu Qingfeng took Chen Ke's hand instead, and said in a low voice, "It will be fine soon. You should also pay attention to the injury on your arm, next time, next time..." Xu Qingfeng wanted to say stop ignoring his body, but Chen Ke held his hand tightly and refused to let him say.

"There is no next time." Chen Ke said.

"Um……"

The two lay down for a while, and Xu Qingfeng really didn't feel sleepy anymore. Seeing that he was uncomfortable after lying down for a long time, Chen Ke raised his voice and called the whole father-in-law to come in and wash up.

"The guard Guan has already found a place. The second one will bring a small courtyard. The location is a bit noisy next to the market, and there is another place that is older but quieter. The guard Guan asked the old slave to invite the prince to decide..."

Chen Ke made up his mind without thinking too much. Xu Qingfeng was wiping his face when he heard this and raised his head from the towel: "Don't you want to stay at the hotel?"

"It's more convenient to rent a house."

Xu Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, and walked to Chen Ke's side: "When are we going to Juyanhe City?"

"Wait until your injury is better."

"Let's walk slowly, and my injury will heal slowly..." Xu Qingfeng was thinking about the unresolved poison on Chen Ke's body.

Guilt and remorse rushed into Xu Qingfeng's heart. Chen Ke knew that Xu Qingfeng didn't know when Xu Kuining poisoned him. If he didn't find the golden bell flower, Xu Qingfeng's heart knot would get deeper.

"Heal your wounds first..."

Xu Qingfeng wished he could fly to Juyanhe City immediately and ask the Master of Law, but Chen Ke had already made up his mind and would not allow others to change it.

Xu Qingfeng stared at Chen Ke, anxious, and Eunuch Quan persuaded from the side: "Mr. Xu, let's wait for a few days. Your body is not fully recovered, and the prince's injury also needs to be taken care of. The small hole needs to be taken care of in half a month. Nothing good..."

"Quan Xindong." Chen Ke interrupted, but couldn't hear the anger. Eunuch Quan hurriedly slapped himself lightly in cooperation: "This slave is talkative." After speaking, he bowed and saluted, and cleaned up the copper basin and Towel went out.

Xu Qingfeng was still in a panic, Chen Ke pulled him to sit down, the two of them were silent for a while, and the suffocating feeling before parting was shrouded again, this is a problem that cannot be ignored between the two of them——

But Chen Ke didn't intend to say more, as long as he can find the golden bell flower to detoxify, Xu Qingfeng's knot will be resolved, but what if he can't find it?

"If the poison cannot be cured..."

When Chen Ke started talking, Xu Qingfeng hurriedly interrupted, "Yes!"

Perhaps it was because Chen Ke's expression was too calm, Xu Qingfeng gradually became depressed, and lowered his head to wait for Chen Ke to speak.

Chen Ke went on to say: "Golden bell flowers are like phoenix feathers, and it is human nature to find them."

Human nature - Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature, life and death are part of human nature, and the world is impermanent.

Xu Qingfeng understood the truth, but Xu Qingfeng couldn't accept Chen Ke's persuasion for a while.

He understood what Chen Ke meant. If they couldn't find a way to detoxify, they would not have many days left to get along with each other.

Xu Qingfeng took the initiative to snuggle into Chen Ke's arms and put his arms around Chen Ke's waist. Chen Ke wrapped his arms around Xu Qingfeng's shoulders and buried his face in his neck.

"Let's not separate again." Xu Qingfeng said softly.

Regardless of whether it is the emperor or whoever, the emperor, Lao Tzu, and the Jade Emperor will not allow them to separate again. Xu Qingfeng just wants to throw aside the capital and the common people.

Between Tianxia and Chen Ke, he had already made the wrong choice once—by poisoning Chen Ke, Tianxia did not avoid disaster because of this.Floods and earthquakes happened again, what should come will always come, this is the law of nature in operation.

"Um……"

Chen Ke turned his head and kissed Xu Qingfeng's cheek habitually. Before meeting the person he loves, he would not know that life is so beautiful, nor would he feel that life is so short—short enough to grow old.

Chen Ke chose the relatively secluded courtyard. Although it is older, the sparse fence also has a special flavor.

It was very easy to move from the hospital to the small courtyard, there was nothing to pack, Xu Qingfeng thanked the doctor in the hospital politely, and then left.

The doctors in the hospital still don't know the real identities of these people in front of them, and they are worried about getting into trouble, and they wish Xu Qingfeng and the others would leave as soon as possible.

Guan Hongfeng went to the rented house first. This place is secluded, at the back of the town, away from the downtown area, but the house is not big. Guan Hongfeng looked at the surrounding terrain and set up guard points.

Zuo Ming also returned to his original job. The task of taking care of Xu Qingfeng was taken over by Quan Gonggong and Chen Ke. Now Zuo Ming followed Guan Hongfeng to arrange guard work.

Chen Ke brought a lot of guards this time. The first team that followed the carriage in a hurry, and the two guard teams that were slightly behind, totaled more than [-] people.

"How about it?"

"Huh?" Zuo Ming was a little distracted today. He didn't listen when Guan Hongfeng arranged tasks with the leaders of the three guards. Looking at Guan Hongfeng's side face, his thoughts flew thousands of miles away, and Guan Hongfeng suddenly turned to ask him. Opinion.

Guan Hongfeng frowned, looking at Zuo Ming worriedly.Last night Zuo Ming said "I'm tired" and left. Later, he searched all over the clinic but couldn't find Zuo Ming. Today Zuo Ming was obviously distracted from morning till now, so it was hard for him not to worry.

Zuo Ming had already realized what Guan Hongfeng was asking him, nodded, and said, "It's good." His expression was as cold as before, as if it wasn't him who had been in a daze just now.

After dismissing the three persons in charge, Guan Hongfeng asked concerned: "Are you feeling unwell? Have you changed your medicine today?"

Talking about changing the medicine, Zuo Ming remembered what happened last night, and his heart became even more disturbed. He deliberately avoided Guan Hongfeng's sight, and said in a blunt tone, "It has been changed."

Zuo Ming had been staying on a big tree outside the medical hall last night. He saw Guan Hongfeng looking for him everywhere, but he chose to watch silently.

Zuo Ming didn't know if Guan Hongfeng meant that to him. Guan Hongfeng treated him very well. When he first entered King Ren's Mansion six years ago, he was just an inconspicuous secret guard.

But by chance, he got to know Guan Hongfeng. From being silent to the leader of the secret guard, Guan Hongfeng has always been kind to him, so Zuo Ming doesn't understand, this kindness is only between friends, or it contains other things.

Guan Hongfeng never admitted it or expressed it more bluntly. Zuo Ming thought about it all night, and the more he thought about it, the more upset he became. What upset him the most was that he didn't know what kind of feelings he had for Guan Hongfeng.

"That girl changed it for you?"

Zuo Ming blinked, Guan Hongfeng should be talking about Gillian. "So what?"

"No."

When that Gillian girl heard that they were leaving, she deliberately bid farewell to Zuo Ming, her shy and expectant eyes clearly liked Zuo Ming, so Zuo Ming was dull, always unable to see that anyone liked him.

Guan Hongfeng thought of the scene of Zuo Ming and Gillian standing together in the morning, and was also a little upset. He said "no" and stopped talking.

Zuo Ming waited for a long time but did not wait for Guan Hongfeng to speak again. Turning his head to look, Guan Hongfeng was staring at him in a daze, thinking of something, and his expression was not very happy.Zuo Ming felt more and more inexplicable, the two sat opposite each other, and the silence surrounded them.

"you……"

"I……"

The two spoke at the same time, then stopped, looking at each other awkwardly, the urgency of the reunion last night made it seem that the two are too unfamiliar and deliberate now.

"You talk first." Zuo Ming said quickly.

"Well. Did you receive the letter from King Ren when you arrived in Shangfeng Town?"

"Yes." Zuo Ming remembered that he had received news about the capital before arriving in Shangfeng Town, in that small tea shed.Zuo Ming talked roughly, but seeing Guan Hongfeng's brows furrowed tightly, he couldn't help asking: "What's the matter?"

When Guan Hongfeng was thinking about something, he would sit up straight, and the look in his eyes became brighter and brighter, "The letter should have been dropped."

"What do you mean?"

Chen Ke intentionally concealed what happened in the capital from Xu Qingfeng. Chen Ke did not truthfully write the letter about the situation at that time, and the letter was delivered at the wrong time, one day late.Moreover, the letter sent by Chen Ke later failed to reach Xu Qingfeng.

"There was an accident in Shangfeng Town at that time, we may have missed it with the messenger." Zuo Ming guessed.

"But the messenger hasn't returned yet."

Zuo Ming frowned upon hearing this, "Did something happen on the way?"

Guan Hongfeng shook his head, "Let's check again..."

"Um……"

Zuo Ming responded, and the two fell into silence again.

"What did you just say?" Guan Hongfeng asked suddenly.

"nothing……"

"Um……"

After a long silence, Zuo Ming looked outside, wondering why Xu Qingfeng and the others hadn't come yet.

"I……"

"you……"

The two spoke at the same time again, Zuo Ming felt a little annoyed, he felt that the atmosphere of silence made people feel uncomfortable, and wanted to leave, but Guan Hongfeng seemed to have something to say, which made his heart tense up and down.

"Say it." Zuo Ming said quickly again.

"I want to ask you..." Guan Hongfeng spoke slowly, staring into Zuo Ming's eyes very seriously, Zuo Ming couldn't help holding his breath, waiting for Guan Hongfeng's words.

"Are you hungry?" Guan Hongfeng remembered that Zuo Ming hadn't eaten in the morning, and thought that Zuo Ming had been lacking energy just now, maybe it was because he was hungry.

But Zuo Ming stared, got up and walked out: "Not hungry!"
