The most unlucky crossing in history

Xie Wenyuan fell into a deep sleep in the carriage, and seeing the bruises under Xie Wenyuan's eyes, his heart ached. It was the first time he had seen Xie Wenyuan look tired after knowing him for so many years.

So even if the carriage arrived at the house, Zhong Qiyun was not willing to wake him up, but ordered his servants to prepare hot water for dinner, and then he hugged them and stayed in the carriage for another hour, until Butler Li arrived over there When the outside of the carriage whispered to him that dinner was ready, he thought about asking Steward Li to take someone away from this place, and then he carefully hugged him down with a blanket.

At that moment, Zhong Qiyun couldn't help sighing, fortunately he was engaged in shipping, fortunately he had practiced a lot of strength in the past two years at sea, otherwise how could he have the ability to hold Xie Wenyuan who was about the same height as him like this ah.

Although Xie Wenyuan opened his eyes halfway, he just looked around, and when he saw no one around, he closed his eyes and leaned on Zhong Qiyun's shoulder, and was carried to the bed by Zhong Qiyun.Zhong Qiyun waited until he let him down.

After Xie Wenyuan washed his hands and face, the servants happened to have already arranged the food and placed it on the round table outside the bedroom.

Seeing him change into his official uniform and come out, Zhong Qiyun grinned: "I don't think you must have eaten in the palace at night. Although it's late now, you should eat casually anyway. These are refreshing and delicious dishes."

Xie Wenyuan nodded and walked to the table, and sat beside Zhong Qiyun: "What time is it?"

"It's almost time."

Xie Wenyuan calculated the time, "I slept for an hour and a half, right?"

Zhong Qiyun nodded: "Yes, this is the first time I've seen you sleep so deeply."

"In the inner courtyard of the palace these few months..." Xie Wenyuan smiled, "I can't sleep well."

When Zhong Qiyun heard it, his heart hurt even more. Zhong Qiyun didn't need to think about it, how could he sleep well in the besieged place in the inner courtyard of the palace?He was still troubled by being on the edge of the vortex of struggle, let alone Xie Wenyuan in the deep center.

Thinking like this, he gave Xie Wenyuan a bowl of rice, and after Xie Wenyuan took it, he picked up a chopstick of mutton with stewed scallops and stir-fried lotus leaf white into Xie Wenyuan's bowl.

Xie Wenyuan looked around, but still asked: "The cooking of this mutton...is it made like that in Sangha City?"

Zhong Qiyun smiled and said: "Yes, when I went to Shendu last time, I saw you like these local dishes on the way.

, I asked someone to learn it. These are also made by the master at home. I think the taste should not be bad. "

Xie Wenyuan paused, then looked at Zhong Qiyun who was speaking.He really likes these dishes, but he has already developed the habit of not being picky about what he eats, and he will eat everything on the table equally. will eat two more bites.

Although this change was subtle, Zhong Qiyun noticed it.

And these foreign-style foods can't be eaten outside the Sangha City, let alone in Dazhu, but Zhong Qiyun has already learned it.

Thinking of this, the corners of Xie Wenyuan's lips curled slightly, he took a bite of the dish, savored it carefully, and then said: "It's indeed the same as what I ate in Sangha City."

Zhong Qiyun smiled, "That's good."

As he said that, he also added a large bowl of rice, and ate it with the vegetables mixed with the rice.

Because the time was too late, the two ended a few hours later at random. After the two of them changed and washed, no one said anything else, and it was not like the two of them tossed and tossed the night Xie Wenyuan slept together a few months ago. , this night, naturally, the two slept together.

The cold wind outside the house was blowing harder, but the house was as warm as spring, but even so, Zhong Qiyun still wrapped his heart-sharp waist with one hand, and warmed Xie Wenyuan's cool water on his chest with one free hand.

This night can be said to be the deepest sleep Xie Wenyuan had in these years.

Even if it is far from being really peaceful now, even complicated and trivial matters such as court affairs, Uighur affairs, Xie family affairs, etc. are waiting for Xie Wenyuan to go back to take care of and plan.But this night, in Zhong Qiyun's quiet and quiet house, cuddling with Zhong Qiyun on the soft bed, he didn't want to plan anything, he didn't want to think about anything, he just wanted to feel the warmth and warmth that he hadn't had in his heart for many years calm.

The next morning, Xie Wenyuan, as the current prime minister, naturally had to go to court early on time.

It was not yet dawn at that time, but when Xie Wenyuan got up, Zhong Qiyun got up to help Zhang Luo, had some breakfast with him, and then sent him to the city.

After all, it was not the afternoon of yesterday. There are many officials coming and going outside the palace at this moment. Now it is not good to tell others that Xie Wenyuan rested in Zhong Qiyun's private house yesterday with such fanfare. He, Zhong Qiyun, has some unexplainable entanglements

,but......

Looking at Bai Lan who was already waiting outside the side gate of the inner city and leading the carriage not far ahead, the smile on Zhong Qiyun's face became more and more "brilliant".

Xie Wenyuan was in the early court, and Zhong Qiyun was not free to go to Chengfeng Station. Before noon, Zhong Qiyun counted the time and rushed to the palace with spring breeze, ready to follow Xie Wenyuan back to the house for dinner.

But how did he know that just after he arrived at Changle Street, he was told by the groom guarding there that the white guard of the Prime Minister's Mansion had taken Mr. Xie away.

The smile on Zhong Qiyun's face froze, then he turned his horse's head and ran to the Prime Minister's Mansion with an ugly expression.

When I saw Xie Wenyuan again, Xie Wenyuan was explaining things to Bai Lan.Xie Wenyuan glanced at him, and didn't let him avoid it, he just motioned him to sit aside and rest first, and then continued to say to Bai Lan: "You ask Peng Yi to keep watching over the Zhang family, and report to me immediately if there is any change."

"Yes."

Xie Wenyuan thought for a while and asked, "Gu Shouyi hasn't come back yet?"

Bai Lan replied: "After that day, he disappeared. Zhang Hong asked someone to go to Jianzhou to check his younger brother who was living outside, and he disappeared, but Zhuo Feng was still in the temple."

After hearing this, Xie Wenyuan frowned slightly, "I think he lied to me about some things early in the morning, but it doesn't matter, the Gu family is not with you and me after all."

Bai Lan nodded.

"Okay, it's been a tough time for you guys. When the situation is stable... If you, Zhang Hong and others want to go to the army to practice... I will ask the general to accept you as an apprentice."

When Bai Lan heard this, she frowned and said: "My lord, Bai Lan doesn't ask for such things. Now that you are like the general, if..."

Xie Wenyuan waved his hand, "I have my own considerations."

Bai Lan bowed her head and did not respond.

Seeing this, Xie Wenyuan sighed slightly: "You and Zhang Hong shouldn't have been confined to Wenchen's mansion as guards for the rest of your life. When you entered Xie's mansion back then, it was for a wider world."

Bai Lan lowered his head, but slowly clenched his fists. For the first time, he retorted: "If you say it's broad, then your lord..."

"Bai Lan!" Xie Wenyuan frowned, blocking Bai Lan's next words.

It took him a long time before he said: "Forget it, you should step back first, after all, you won't be able to leave for a while."

Bai Lan also knew that he almost said some inappropriate words without consideration just now, so he nodded after thinking about it, and then backed away.

After he left, only Zhong Qiyun and Xie Wenyuan were left in the room.

Zhong Qiyun understood Bai Lan's unfinished words.

thank

Wen Yuan didn't want to keep these two generals, and wanted them to venture into the world. It wasn't that Bai Lan didn't want to, it was just that he was unwilling.

Zhong Qiyun and Xie Wenyuan have only known each other for three years, maybe only a year, but he can also see that Xie Wenyuan's ability should not be bound by this civil servant's robe, but Xie Wenyuan has left this way. way.

Even if he thinks like this in his heart, let alone Bai Lan and others who have followed Xie Wenyuan for many years, I am afraid that they understand better than Zhong Qiyun that Xie Wenyuan is bound by this world.

Zhong Qiyun got up and walked slowly behind Xie Wenyuan, and then hugged him into his arms from behind.He didn't know what to say, but his heart just hurt.

After a long silence, Zhong Qiyun said: "From what you and Bai Lan said, I think there will be no peace in this day and a half?"

Xie Wenyuan leaned slightly in his arms, did not deny it, but said: "But it can't be messed up for the time being."

"No matter what happens, I'm with you."

"it is good."

After hearing this, Zhong Qiyun said with a hippie smile: "But having said that, my lord prime minister, these people under your command are really dedicated to their duties, and they picked up people on time, which is really admirable." But these words It sounded like gnashing of teeth.

Xie Wenyuan glanced at Zhong Qiyun, and saw Zhong Qiyun sighing and saying that he would only stay for one night, so he went back to the prime minister's mansion and asked him if he thought Zhong Qiyun's house was not rich enough and the threshold was too low.

Hearing the sound, Xie Wenyuan turned around to face Zhong Qiyun: "But I really should go back home. I didn't have many chores the day before yesterday, so I could take a break. Now that the political affairs are getting busy, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to your place."

When Zhong Qiyun heard it, he seemed to be a little troubled, only to hear him click tut twice, and said: "Oh, if you don't go, tut tut, then I can only come to your house to bother you from now on... "As he spoke, he slowly narrowed the distance between the two of them. When his lips touched, he said softly: "After all, if you don't see me for half a day, you will miss me so much..."

In the afternoon, Xie Wenyuan went to the Political Affairs Hall, and before he had time to eat some dinner, he said to Zhong Qiyun: "I know you have arrived in Jingzhao today, and I will call you into the palace after a few days."

It was not surprising that Zhong Qiyun nodded. Tan Yuanyong needed him to do something, and hoped to take the opportunity to separate him from Xie Wenyuan, so he would definitely contact him again.

"After all, I helped him a lot last time, he

What was promised has not yet been fulfilled. "

Xie Wenyuan shook his head: "I guess, this time he will want you to contact the Li family."

"The Li family? That Chuanshu Li family who opened all over the bank?"

"On the surface it is, but behind the scenes he is a weapon manufacturer with millions of troops."

Zhong Qiyun paused when he heard the words, frowned and said nothing, but he remembered that the Li family was said to have made great achievements by making weapons for the first emperor of Dazhu. Now if Tan Yuanyong let him contact the Li family... ..

"He had already had people follow me secretly, but I avoided them, but he must know about your visit to my house today."

"He knows me and you..."

"He won't know."

"Why?"

Xie Wenyuan smiled: "You and I are both taboo and observant outside, how can others see the clues? Who in the world is not greedy? To outsiders, the relationship between you and me is just a good word. You 'flattery' So I do it for the smooth sailing of the market, and my contact with you is only for profit."

Zhong Qiyun's face was even more ugly.

Xie Wenyuan glanced at Zhong Qiyun, and said again: "What's more...everyone in Jingzhao City knows that Zhong Qiyun, the boss of the Zhong family, likes the most beautiful woman in the world, Chu Changyi, very much."

"What?!"
