late snow

Excessive words, but because of pleasure, or intentional teasing, it is not out of sincerity.

Both of them knew it.

But there was still a moment when the person who said it was serious and the person who listened was embarrassed.

The wind and snow were heavy, and Zhan Hua got up to close the half-open window, only to see a head with messy hair protruding from the courtyard wall.

Nan Yu clung to the top of the wall, beckoning to her master.

Then there was a "bang", and the window was mercilessly closed in front of her.

Nanyu in a mess in the wind and snow: "..."

What a ruthless master.

Zhan Hua turned around and looked at Ji Huai, "We are in Shiyuan City now, what should we do next?"

Ji Huai said, "Come to find Ji Yu's body."

Zhan Hua paused, "Looking for Ji Yu's body?"

Ji Huai thought he didn't know who Ji Yu was, and explained: "Ji Yu is my... nominal father."

"Then where should we find it?" Zhan Hua asked.

"I don't know." Ji Huai frowned and thought for a while, "Ji Ming only told me so much, and asked me to come to Shiyuan City to pick up Ji Yu's body back."

"Ji Yu has been dead for more than 20 years. Shiyuan City is so big, it is impossible to dig every grave." Zhan Hua sat down and said, "If you think about it carefully, he must have left you other clues."

Ji Huai began to carefully recall the scene at that time, but he didn't think of anything special for a long time, and said: "No, it's just that Ji's mansion said that Ji Yu died of a serious illness before I was born, but Ji Ming said that he came to the city late What stands out is his tomb."

"Do you know that there is an alley in Shiyuan City, named Yiguan Lane?" Zhan Hua asked suddenly.

Ji Huai was stunned for a moment, "Yiguan Lane?"

"Shiyuan City is located in the northwest of Zhao State, next to Liang State in the north. A hundred years ago, Zhao Liang and Liang were constantly fighting. Both sides suffered countless casualties. It was the middle of winter, and the corpses of countless soldiers who died in battle were frozen at the bottom of the river. They couldn't be found again. It was helpless." In the past, countless tombs could only be erected in the place where Shiyuan City was located—"

"At that time, Shiyuan City was still a wasteland. In recent decades, General Song Fan was stationed here to develop this city, and the countless clothes tombs were moved to other places, and houses and schools were built on them. The alley in front is Yiguan Lane .”

Ji Huai suddenly said: "It's so."

He only knew about the Battle of Zhao Liang a hundred years ago, but he didn't know there was such a story in it.

"Could it be that Ji Ming's mention of Yiguan Tomb means that Ji Yu's bones may be in Yiguan Lane?" Ji Huai asked.

"Very likely." Zhan Hua nodded, "Let's rest here for a while, and go there after dark."

"Why wait for dark?" Ji Huai was puzzled.

"When the moon is dark and the wind is high, when killing people and setting fire." Zhan Hua smiled at him.

Ji Huai: "..."

Zhan Hua paused, "Isn't it funny?"

Ji Huai twitched the corner of his mouth, "Haha."

Zhan Hua said: "You are perfunctory to me."

Ji Huai stared at him carefully for a while, and tentatively asked: "Do you feel that you talked a little...too much today?"

Not only did he forcefully lead him to kill on a whim, but he kept asking him questions, and even joked with him for the first time—although it was not funny at all.

Zhan Hua usually puts on a cold and silent look, which always makes Ji Huai feel that he is very serious and unpredictable, but occasionally he plays tricks on him, and pretends to have nothing to do with him when he is discovered, like a kind of pretending to be calm. childish.

But nothing like today.

A little dumb.

Hearing his question, Zhan Hua froze for a moment. After a long silence, he said in a muffled voice, "I'll take the pill for you."

It took Ji Huai a while to react, and he said worriedly: "You gave me your detoxification pill, so you are going to be poisoned now?"

"It's not that serious." Zhan Hua pursed his lips, "I suppress it with internal force, but my temperament will be affected."

Ji Huai asked puzzled, "Why?"

Zhan Hua stared at him angrily, "You lose your temper when you're sick, so why don't you let me be more irritable when I'm sick?"

Ji Huai was choked by him, and then realized that "be more irritable" was still inaccurate. This is not irritable, it is clearly playing with his temper.

But it also looked really uncomfortable.

He got up and sat next to Zhan Hua, and stretched out his wrist to him, "Drink some blood pressure."

Zhan Hua did not refuse, grabbed his wrist and looked at it for a long time, rubbed his fingers on his wrist, and said: "Ji Huai, you are really not afraid of death."

Ji Huai's scalp was numb from his touch, but he was not afraid of him, and put his wrist between his lips, motioning for him to bite.

Zhan Hua didn't, instead he reached out and hugged him into his arms.

Two people were leaning against the cold wall in the corner, one was irritable because he didn't take the medicine, and the other was very uncomfortable because he took the medicine, like two poor trapped animals cuddling together to keep warm.

Ji Huai was silent for a while, and asked him, "Are you going to celebrate your 20th birthday this month?"

"Damn you." Zhan Hua said: "My surname is Ye and my name is Zhan Hua. I'm about the same age as you. I'm twenty-one. My birthday is the third day of the twelfth lunar month."

Ji Huai: "...you don't have a few truths out of your mouth."

"I like you too."

Zhan Hua thought for a while, and added: "This sentence is true."

Ji Huai was stunned.

Zhan Hua didn't notice it, and whispered: "I also know that your birthday is also the third day of the twelfth lunar month."

On the third day of the twelfth lunar month, they were all born in a world of ice and snow.

Ji Huai whispered: "There are still two months left, what birthday present do you want?"

"Help me get that jade pendant—"

"another."

"........."

There was a fire burning in front to keep warm, and the two of them sat next to each other, chatting and waiting for it to get dark.

In the yard, Nan Yu squatted under the window with her arms folded, forced to listen to the corner of the wall between her master and Ji Huai, shivering with cold.

Loyalty to the master is not as good as keeping a dog.

This is a pair of dogs and men.

Nanyu froze all afternoon, and slandered her all afternoon. Finally, when her master, who was busy talking about love, came out of the house, she hurried up, "Master, master."

Zhan Hua turned his head to look at her expressionlessly, seeing that her nose was red from the cold, he said, "Why don't you go into the house?"

Nan Yu: "..."

Was it a dog who saw her slam the window before co-authoring it? ?

Cursing her mother in her heart, but with a smile on her face, Nanyu handed him a small porcelain bottle respectfully, "Master, your pills."

Zhan Hua took it, and Ji Huai turned his head to look at it, so he poured out a grain to show Ji Huai, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Nan Yu, who watched the whole process: ...very good.

Her cruel, ruthless and unscrupulous master has already become dizzy, and is so fascinated by this beautiful and flowery Yao Yinzi.

What's so good about such a black broken pill?

Do you want to kill the medicine primer?

Nan Yu watched Zhan Hua hesitate to speak, Zhan Hua said: "But it's okay to say."

This means that there is no need to avoid Ji Huai.

The surprise in Nan Yu's eyes flashed by, but he still reported to him honestly: "The day before yesterday, Ming Ye and I found out that the left and right guards appeared to chase and kill a person. We went to investigate tomorrow, but we haven't returned yet. I will go find you , but happened to find that someone was chasing and killing everyone in the Wulin League..."

"I disguised myself and mixed in, and found that the group of people chasing and killing the Wulin League seemed to be members of the imperial court." Nanyu said.

Zhan Hua frowned upon hearing this.

Ji Huai could hear a cold sweat.

The group of people who chased and killed them obviously came with murderous intentions.

Did the court people discover his identity?

But he has no power, why does Zhao Qi insist on putting him to death?

He suddenly remembered that when he met Zhao Yue for the first time, Zhao Yue had mentioned that the map of Qiankun was related to Jinshanghe Guozuo, and he couldn't help being shocked.

-

The Imperial Palace in the capital, Zichen Hall.

Zhao Qi casually threw the memorial on the table and cursed, "What nonsense!"

Lin Yuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, sat down and drank tea unhurriedly, and persuaded, "Your Majesty, calm down."

Not very distracted by persuasion.

Zhao Qi raised his head to look at him after defending the case, "Lin Yuan, did you transfer someone from Beizhen Fusi?"

Lin Yuan admitted generously, "Yes."

"You're against the sky!" Zhao Qi slammed the folder in his hand onto the table, and said angrily, "Today you transfer people from Beizhen Fusi, but tomorrow you dare to transfer my imperial army!?"

Lin Yuan stood up, bowed his hands to salute him, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "I dare not."

"You don't dare? I think you are very brave!" Zhao Qi grabbed the memorial and threw it on him, "Your records are almost piled up in the mountains, you can see for yourself!"

Lin Yuan bent down and picked up the folder on the ground. The vermilion official uniform looked very handsome on him. Zhao Qi couldn't help but look at it twice, and then looked away angrily.

Lin Yuan lowered his eyes to read the memorial carefully, and said after a while: "Your Majesty, this is a memorial for the draft."

Zhao Qi's face froze, and he said angrily, "Get out!"

Lin Yuan bowed to leave, but halfway through the retreat, Zhao Qi said stiffly: "Get out of here!"

Lin Yuan: "..."

If those ministers who praised Zhao Qi for his kindness, kindness, honesty, gentleman, and courtesy saw his moody appearance, I don’t know whether they would choose to remonstrate with death, or would they hate themselves for being blind and choosing such a person to be emperor.

Zhao Qi stared at him and said, "You send someone to hunt down Ji Huai."

Lin Yuan smiled slightly, "Didn't His Majesty stop you?"
