When Ronghua finished his work and returned to Hongyi Courtyard, the servants had already cleaned up the room, and Zhizhen also moved to a small courtyard next door. Now that Zhizhen had returned to his place, Xin Mu went to the house by himself. Sitting in front of the desk, reading a book and waiting for Ronghua.

As soon as Rong Hua came back, Xin Mu went to meet him. Rong Hua pinched Xin Mu's face and said, "Are you used to moving here?"

In fact, Xin Mu didn't think there was any difference, it was the same everywhere, but Ronghua allowed him to live in this Hongyi Courtyard, it did have a different meaning, Xin Mu still felt very satisfied.

Xin Mu had just taken a bath, and she still had a faint smell of saponin on her body. That smell made Ronghua feel very at ease. When she smelled it, she felt that there were no more troubles in this world.

At this time, the first snow in the early winter of this year fluttered down.Xin Mu couldn't help being attracted by the falling snow, he left Ronghua's attention, walked to the window and stared blankly at the falling snow.

"So it's snowing like this, it's so beautiful." Xin Mu raised his head and looked out from the small window, a little unable to confirm that what he saw in front of him was real.

Rong Hua went up and hugged him from behind, put his chin on his shoulder, and said, "Have you never seen snow?"

Xin Mu shook his head and said, "There is no winter in Zhaoshan. I have only heard about it in books, but never read it."

Rong Hua took Xin Mu's hand and said: "If this is the case, how can I just watch it under the eaves, of course I have to experience it."

After saying that, Rong Hua dragged Xin Mu out of the room and went to the courtyard to see the snow.

Xin Mu had never felt such a cold weather, and he shivered as soon as he went out.Rong Hua said with a smile: "This is the beginning of winter, you are so afraid of the cold, what will you do in the middle of winter?"

While speaking, Rong Hua opened the cloak, pulled Xin Mu over and rubbed it into his arms, and wrapped the two of them in that large cloak, so that their bodies were tightly pressed together.

"Is it still cold like this?" Rong Hua asked.

Xin Mu felt the temperature of Ronghua's body, not only his body but also his heart warmed up.

Rong Hua raised a finger and lifted Xin Mu's face, making him look up at the sky.The snowflakes fell slowly and landed on Xin Mu's face and eyelashes. The cold touch made Xin Mu shiver immediately, but soon the snowflakes turned into water and rolled down on Xin Mu's skin.Xin Mu couldn't stop trembling from the icy water, and Rong Hua couldn't help laughing.

The little snow gradually grew bigger, and more and more fell down like goose feathers. Xin Mu kept looking at the white snowflakes falling from the dark blue sky, and felt more at ease than ever. He smiled slightly, and his heart was full of joy. satisfy.

Rong Hua hugged Xin Mu even tighter, and said, "You still have a lot of things you haven't seen, and I'll take you to see them one by one in the future."

With a smile on the corner of Xin Mu's mouth, she replied in a low voice, "Okay."

That night, Xin Mu felt that he was a cold snowflake that fell from the sky that day, and Rong Hua was a ball of fire that completely burned him and melted him.

After that snowfall, it became colder and colder.The colder it was, the more sleepy Xin Mu became, and now she really wanted to read a book and lie on the bed.

Ying Xinyuan still came to take a look at Xin Mu's body every few days, and so far she hasn't found any problems.Under Ying Xinyuan's treatment, the injury on Xin Mu's right wrist has healed, but the tendon of his hand has always been injured, and now he can only bend some fingers slightly to the maximum.Ying Xinyuan said that if he wanted to write, he would probably have to wait a year.

Xin Mu was not in a hurry, and soon learned to write with his left hand.

When using the left hand, the whole person is like a child who has just started to read and recognize characters. The hand is very inflexible, and the characters written are crooked.

Rong Hua spent half an hour every day with Xin Mu's curtain, he would hug Xin Mu from behind, hold his hand and teach him to write stroke by stroke.

In this way, after ten days of practice, Xin Mu was finally able to write the word "Rong" decently.

Xin Mu thought that the days to come would be like this, but just when he was about to start practicing the word "Hua", the peace was still broken.Everything he thought would remain the same has always changed.

That day, just as Rong Hua held his hand and was about to start writing, a servant came in to report that someone had come from the Rong family's ancestral house and had something important to report.

Rong Hua and Xin Mu were startled when they heard this, they both felt bad, so they hurriedly called the guard in, who came in crying, and said in horror: "Master Hou, something happened, the Duke Ye's illness relapsed last night, and the situation is quite critical. The villain has already sent someone to Jishitang to ask for a miracle doctor. He is now looking for Lord Hou. You should go there quickly. This time, the Lord's illness came suddenly. If it is delayed, it may be serious. ...I'm afraid it's..."

Rong Hua's face changed suddenly, and he slammed the table and said, "How is it possible? Isn't elder brother's illness stabilized? What nonsense are you talking about!"

The guard replied with a teary voice: "I don't know, I have been fine for the past few days, and I don't know what happened last night... Suddenly..."

Xin Mu pulled La Ronghua's sleeve and said, "Don't talk so much, hurry over there first!"

Rong Hua didn't care about anything, left everything behind and went out.

Xin Mu and Zhizhen didn't follow, so Xin Mu and Zhizhen stayed at home all afternoon, trembling with fear.The two of them waited for the news and didn't sleep. In the middle of the night, a guard finally came to announce with beating gongs and drums. The guard's face was pale, and his whole body was shaking like chaff. The guard's reaction knew that it was definitely not good news.

Sure enough, the guard knelt down and roared with tears all over his face: "General Zhenxi Yipin Yue Guogong... die!"

It took a full half a month before Rong Hua returned to the Duke of Yue's mansion.Rong Zheng's funeral was completed at the ancestral house, and the emperor posthumously named him King of Yue, posthumously titled Zhongyong, and he was buried with various rewards of gold, silver, and silk.

Rong Zheng, who once swept the western frontier of Dasheng, died young at such a young age.All the glory of life cannot be brought into the underworld, people have already been buried in the ground, and the next step is for the living.

As soon as the news of Rong Zheng's death spread, the small barbarian countries in the west began to move. No matter how sad they were, Rong Hua must accept the knighthood ceremony as soon as possible. Go to guard.

For the knighting ceremony, Rong Hua should personally go to the capital to accept the emperor's award.But this cross-state border is really inseparable from people.Therefore, the matter of conferring the title had to be as brief as possible, and the matter of the Chaomian Sheng was put on hold for the time being. The emperor sent an imperial envoy to Yuezhou to confer the reward. General Xi, the new Duke of Yue.

Two days before the imperial envoy came, Rong Hua went back to the Duke of Yue.When he left, he was alone, but when he came back, he was not alone.

When Xin Mu and Zhizhen received the news, they went to meet him at the gate of Yue State Duke's Mansion early in the morning. They saw the mighty carriage convoy from a distance, and when they got to the leader's carriage drive, they heard the sound of another person on the carriage. sound.

That was Yingyu's voice.

Zhizhen's face was on the other side, Dang even was furious, and he wanted to say something, but this time it was Xin Mu who held him back and signaled him to be quiet.Zhizhen held back and stared gloomyly at the carriage.

After getting out of the car, Rong Hua opened the car curtain again, and said softly to the people inside: "I'm home."

The person inside responded, and stretched out a hand. Rong Hua held that hand, and then hugged the person in the car.

It's Yingyu.

Rong Hua's complexion was very bad. He lost a lot of weight and looked haggard.In comparison, Yingyu was even more haggard, disfigured with thinness, and her cheeks were deeply sunken.But with this appearance, his usual arrogance is missing, which makes people feel distressed.

Rong Hua hugged him, and he closed his eyes and leaned his face on Rong Hua's shoulder.

"Master Hou is back. I have ordered people to tidy up the room and prepare hot water and food. If Master Hou wants to use it, you can do it now." Xin Mu gave Rong Hua a light salute, as if she didn't see him at all. The man in his arms.

Rong Hua was actually very worried. He was afraid that Xin Mu would be angry, but even at this time, Xin Mu was still not angry, or he did not show anger.

Xin Mu just knew that Rong Zheng was gone, and Rong Hua felt uncomfortable, and he would not embarrass Rong Hua again at this time.

Xin Mu just tried not to take Yingyu seriously, as if she didn't see him at all.

Rong Hua glanced at Xin Mu with complicated eyes, still so affectionate and gentle, it was this kind of eyes that made Xin Mu obediently swallow all the grievances.

Xin Mu naturally understood what he meant, and didn't say much, watching him silently carrying Yingyu into the mansion.

Yingyu used to live with Rong Zheng in the Fengyi Courtyard of Chengzhi Hall.Fengyiyuan is the main courtyard of Chengzhi Palace. After Rong Zheng left, Ronghua did not live in it, but used it for political discussion.Now that Yingyu is back, she seems to have no other choice, being there is the best.

When Xin Mu returned to Hongyi Courtyard, he discussed with Zhizhen that some people should be arranged to clean the bedroom of Fengyi Courtyard.

Zhizhen said angrily: "Why! Why does he live there? That is the place where Lord Hou discusses government affairs. It is a great honor for him to return to the Duke of Yue with his current status. How can he be allowed to enter the government office? What about the main hall! How decent is this!"

"Master Hou has him in his heart, Master Hou is willing, this is decent." Xin Mu said calmly, "It's best for you to arrange it. If you don't go, I will be the only one. I...I don't want to go."

Zhizhen really didn't know what to say, he stood there scratching his hair for a long time, and finally agreed helplessly.

Xin Mu quickly returned to Hongyi Courtyard and hid in the study to read.He closed the window and didn't want to hear the sound outside the window. Unfortunately, Fengyi Courtyard is very close to Hongyi Courtyard. Even if Xin Mu closed the window, he could still hear the noise outside.

He heard the maids yelling and embracing, heard Ronghua asking Yingyu how she was doing with concern, and heard Ronghua ordering someone to call for a divine doctor.

Then the courtyard door on the opposite side was closed, Rong Hua took Yingyu into the bedroom, and finally Xin Mu couldn't hear the voice from the opposite side.

The room was silent.
