Lin Gongzi medicine jar

The canal runs from Jiangzhou in the south to the capital. It is an important waterway channel for commercial and trade transportation. It is also responsible for the transportation of taxes, silver and tax beams in the autumn of the Great Xia Dynasty. The busy position of water transportation is special. An official must be the emperor's confidant, and the oil and water are naturally rich.

The canal is wide, and even if it is cold in winter when going north, it will not freeze to block the boat. With the Spring Festival approaching, the number of merchant ships on the river has decreased, and the overall speed of navigation has also increased a lot.

Xiao Yuheng considered that time was tight, the land route might be difficult due to the weather, and the ship was stable and not bumpy, so he decided to change to the water route, but he did not expect Lin Xi to get seasick, and he was extremely sick.

"Young Master, you can already see the pier ahead, and you can disembark in an hour." The attendant asked the boatman, and then reported to Xiao Yuheng.

Finally arrived, Xiao Yuheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Less than a quarter of an hour after sailing, Lin Xi began to vomit. It has been more than ten days until now, and she still retches unbearably if she is not careful. The two maids serving beside her also began to lose weight.Not to mention the two mothers, they wished they could use their own bodies to make Lin Xi feel better.

It's a pity that this young cousin's seasickness is extremely tenacious, and his body became thinner and thinner after tossing around. His blushing face was now as white as a piece of paper. Seeing this, Xiao Yuheng was terrified, afraid that his fragile little cousin would not be able to hold on alone. At that time, the delamination of my own skin will still be light, and the shadow in my heart may be sad.

Now it's finally here, thank goodness.

Xiao Yuheng immediately ordered to go down to prepare to board the ship, and specifically asked the two mothers to wrap Lin Xi tightly.

"The boat stopped!"

The rough voice of the boatman spread to the people on the boat like the sound of nature, and Lin Xi was so excited that he almost burst into tears.

He didn’t have the opportunity to go on a boat in his previous life, but his broken body in this life almost made him want to commit suicide. If he hadn’t struggled to drink a few sips of ginseng tea every day, he would have vomited whatever he ate, and retched even if he didn’t eat. Little life is also over.

It couldn't be more delicate, even sister Lin is a woman compared to him, Lin Xi burst into tears.

At this moment, Mother Zhou and Mother Ren walked into the cabin, followed by a strong servant.

Mother Zhou waited for Lin Xi to put on her cloak, fur hat, and thick shoes before motioning for the boy to squat down with his back to him.

"No need, Mother Zhou, I'll go by myself." Lin Xi shook her head and managed to get out of bed. Although she wobbled a bit when she got up, she stepped on it a few more times and she felt at ease.

The two mothers immediately took a step forward to support Lin Xi, and Mother Ren couldn't help but scolded: "Master Biao is weak, why bother to be brave, you haven't eaten anything all the way, how can you have the mental strength, and it's snowing outside, It’s terrible to be frozen.”

Lin Xi just shook her head as before, and walked a few steps forward with their hands out of the cabin door.

There must be a carriage from the Marquis of Yongning waiting at the pier, should they see him being carried out?I'm afraid that before he stepped into the gate of the Hou's mansion, everyone in the mansion knew that he was so delicate that he couldn't even walk a few steps.

The family background is not obvious, the health is poor, and there is no long-term possessions, but he is just a person who depends on others but has a very high spirit, what a big air.

Zhou's mother knew what Lin Xi was thinking, so she didn't say anything, but just supported him until Lin Xi walked steadily, and then followed him step by step.

Seeing Lin Xi coming out, Xiao Yuheng stretched out his hand to help him, and sent him to the pier. The people from the Yongning Hou Mansion had already arrived.

"Heng'er!"

Xiao Yunxuan got off his horse and walked over with his people.

Xiao Yuheng kowtowed and saluted, "Fourth Uncle, why are you here?" Seeing that a layer of snow had fallen on Xiao Yunxuan's cloak, he apologized, "You have waited for a long time."

"It's okay." Xiao Yunxuan patted his elder nephew on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "I knew your ship would be here today, so I came here early. I didn't pick up my nephew before, so I can't miss it this time."

He looked through Xiao Yuheng and saw Lin Xi who was wrapped up tightly, and walked over with big strides.

"Xi'er."

"Little uncle." Lin Xi raised her head and kowtowed.

Xiao Yunxuan saw that Lin Xi's complexion was really bad, so he wanted to ask a question, but he heard Xiao Yuheng say to him, "Fourth Uncle, Xi'er is still sick, so let's go back home if you have anything to say, it's too cold today, he I can't stand the cold."

In fact, they are not so delicate, Lin Xi thought silently.

"It's about, Xi'er, hurry up and get into the carriage, it's warm inside."

So Mother Ren took Yuanyuan and immediately got into the carriage first, Yuanyuan closed the curtain, Mother Ren supported Lin Xi's hand and pulled him in, and after Zhou's mother supported Lin Xi to send him up, she supported the servant's hand board.

"Girl, don't forget the stove for your young master." Xiao Yuheng got on his horse, rode to the side of the carriage and ordered.

Tuantuan was the last one standing in front of the car door and was about to go in, so he turned around and blessed, and said with a smile, "I dare not forget."

When everything was ready, the carriage moved forward in the snow.

Lin Xi was sitting in the carriage with the curtains closed, so she couldn't see both sides of the street outside, although it was cold, she could vaguely hear a few shouts.

With his eyes closed, he swayed forward with the carriage and slowly recalled the interpersonal relationship in the Hou Mansion. Although Mama Ren mentioned it, she had never seen them before, and he didn't know their temperament, how to say when they met for the first time more appropriate.

Mother Ren saw Lin Xi's worry, and comforted her with a smile, "Master Biao, don't worry, the masters are all kind, I hope it's too late for you."

Lin Xi opened her eyes and smiled, Yuanyuan immediately came up to hold Mama Ren's arm and said, "Mom, the maidservant has never been to the Hou's Mansion, I heard that the rules are very strict, you should remind us a little bit." , we have little experience, and we are afraid that we will lose face if we make a mistake."

"That's right, I haven't slept well these days." Tuantuan also said sadly.

Mother Ren pinched Yuanyuan, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, your mother Zhou's rules were very good back then, she will definitely make no mistakes in teaching her."

Zhou's mother said "Yeah", "The slaves are not trained by you, and they have become unfamiliar after leaving the Hou's mansion. Mother Ren, don't hide your secrets, and tell me while you are still some distance away from the Hou's mansion." .”

Mother Zhou's compliment made Mother Ren extremely happy, so she cleared her throat and started talking.

Lin Xi listened to them quietly when she saw that they were talking vigorously, until there was a sound of horseshoes in the distance, which seemed to be galloping.

Lin Xi was about to open the curtain to have a look, but the carriage stopped suddenly.

There were puzzled expressions on the faces of several people. Mother Ren picked up the curtains and looked out. The snow outside didn't know when it got bigger, covering the sight like goose feathers, and only saw a group of people blocking the way.

Voices such as "My lord..." "Marquis of Yongning... Your son..." could be heard vaguely from outside.

After a stalemate for a while, the carriage did not move forward, Lin Xi frowned slightly, feeling bad.

"Old lady, go and have a look." Mother Ren said and was about to open the car door, but before her hand touched the door frame, the car door opened from the outside.

"Xi'er." Xiao Yuheng's figure appeared in front of the carriage, his complexion was not good, seeing Lin Xi looking over suspiciously, he said, "Prince Rui is here and wants to see you."

meet him?

Lin Xi was surprised and very puzzled.

After Xiao Yuheng and Mother Ren came, he naturally knew about this extremely unlucky cousin-in-law, and even after hearing about Zhao Jingyi's deeds, he was kindly congratulated, compared to himself, he didn't seem so pitiful.

Could it be that his happiness is based on the pain of others and is known by the suffering master?But it's obviously just thinking about it in my heart.

Lin Xi slandered endlessly in his heart, but the other party was a prince after all, and he had to go out to meet him when he came bravely in the wind and snow.

Zhao Jingyi sat on the horse, no matter what Xiao Yunxuan said, he remained motionless, half of his face was covered by a wide black cloak, under the wind and snow the black horse was like a standing stone statue, stubborn and resolute.

Behind him is a group of light cavalry, also all in black, surrounding the carriage in a fan shape, after that they did not move, not even moving their horses.

Xiao Yunxuan couldn't persuade him, so he could only stand aside with a frown, looking worriedly at the carriage.

When Zhao Jingyi saw the carriage, Xiao Yuheng turned his body sideways, exposing the people in the carriage. He clamped his legs and urged the horse to go forward.

The boy inside stood up and bowed to him respectfully.

"You are Lin Xi."

Zhao Jingyi moved closer, and Lin Xi's deep and deep voice clearly entered Lin Xi's ears, making her heart skip a beat. Although she was questioning, her tone was affirmative.

Lin Xi took advantage of this to raise her head and saw his face clearly. The sharp-edged outline was extremely handsome, especially the pair of sharp eyes. Under the captivating gaze, Lin Xi subconsciously avoided looking at him, lowered her head and said, "Yes."

Zhao Jingyi frowned slightly, because he was wrapped too tightly, he couldn't see Lin Xi's appearance clearly, there was only a soft profile, but it looked really small, and it gave him the feeling...very fragile.

But when he thought of his son whose life was hanging by a thread, he pursed his lips, his expression darkened, and he made a decision.

Lin Xi only felt his waist tighten, and his body suddenly lightened. Then there were several exclamations from around, and the world flickered in his sight, and he was forcibly disengaged from the carriage. He got off the horse, still clutching the big black cloak tightly.Suddenly warm breath came from above his head, he looked up and saw Zhao Jingyi looking down at him.

Lin Xi looked back in a daze, moved her lips, "Do...what?"

Now Zhao Jingyi saw clearly the young man in his arms, his eyes were big and bright, like a frightened rabbit, he was stunned for a moment when he had nowhere to escape, then he watched the danger vigilantly, but now he saw clearly It reflected Zhao Jingyi himself.

"Rescue."

As Zhao Jingyi said, he tightened the hand on Lin Xi's waist and the rein with the other hand. Before Lin Xi could speak, he clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse galloped.

The twelve guards followed closely behind, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Lin Xi's open mouth was immediately filled with the wind, and the galloping horse ran down the wind and snow, and Lin Xi was shivering from the cold, feeling that she was about to freeze and suffocate.

"My lord—"

"Xi'er—"

"Master—"

The two mothers and the two girls immediately panicked and jumped out of the carriage anxiously, but the figure of the horse team was getting farther and farther away, and they couldn't catch up at all.

Xiao Ningxuan immediately ordered his eldest nephew, "Take someone and report back to the Hou's Mansion immediately, and I will go directly to the Wang's Mansion."

As he spoke, without waiting for Xiao Yuheng's answer, he whipped his horse and chased after Zhao Jingyi.

Xiao Yuheng slammed the horsewhip hard on the carriage, his face sank, "Mother Ren, get in the carriage quickly, and go home first."

Zhao Jingyi didn't notice Lin Xi at all. The horse ran faster and faster. Seeing that Lin Xi couldn't stop halfway, she gritted her teeth and threw herself into Zhao Jingyi's arms immediately.

Prince Rui really deserves to be a real man on the battlefield. He didn't wear much under his clothes, but his chest was full of heat. Lin Xi pressed against him tightly, and buried his head deeply in it. In order to stabilize himself, he still hugged his strong body tightly with both hands. Waist, only to hear the wind whistling in the ear, and slowly he recovered.

Zhao Jingyi looked down at the boy who could no longer see his head, felt the hands tightly hugging his waist, and couldn't help but smile in his eyes, thinking that he was quite courageous.

However, he tightly held Lin Xi's hand, pressed him close to himself, took time to cover Lin Xi tightly with the cloak, and then accelerated the journey.
