Chongxi [rebirth]

Zhuangzi is on the mountainside, isolated from the world.The ingredients are transported up from the bottom of the mountain every day, and then cooked by the chef. There are three meals a day, and the cuisine of each meal is different.

Eat well, drink well, and have no worldly worries.After eating, Ye Yunting slipped away to read a book in the house - the steward sorted out and cleaned up all the old books of the former owner, and sent them to Ye Yunting's room.

Every day, light a small stove, warm a pot of tea, and hold a book, and the time is spent in comfort.

On this day, Ye Yunting found another old book that he had never read from the bookcase.The title of the book is Travel Notes of South Vietnam.The author did not give his name or surname, but only wrote what he saw and heard on the road in the book.

She started from Baiyue and went all the way to Qili, a border city in South Vietnam. All the anecdotes and strange events along the way were recorded.

Covered with a thin blanket, Ye Yunting snuggled up by the fire, flipping through many pages unconsciously.

When I read halfway through, I saw the author's tone change, from being free and easy and humorous to being affectionate with children.

"The fifth day of May, Dragon Boat Festival. I met Helian again in Qili's tavern. He was dressed in black, with a long sword, and a handsome face. He was exactly the same as when I first saw him. I thought he would buy me a drink, but he But he ignored me. That’s all, then I’ll buy him a drink... Helian’s temper is too dull, cold as a rock. In the past, I would never talk to such a boring person. But now... who told me to like it What about him?"

It was when Ye Yunting saw this that he realized that the author of this travel note was a woman.

The first half of the book is filled with the anecdotes the author has seen and heard along the way. In the middle of the book, the woman meets a man she likes, and only then does she reveal a little girlishness.

Ye Yunting closed the book, hesitant to read on, although the original owner may have passed away, but this is the woman's private love after all.

After hesitating for a while, he was still attracted by the interesting stories in the book. Ye Yunting apologized in his heart, opened the book and continued to read.

Fortunately, the travel notes didn't mention Helian and the author's feelings too much. Ye Yunting almost finished the whole book, and this Helian only appeared three or four times, and every time he mentioned it hastily.On the contrary, there was a paragraph at the end of the travel note, which made him stare at it for a long time.

At the end of the travel note, the author wrote: "I am about to return to Baiyue, and Helian sent me out of Qili. Before leaving, I asked Helian if I would meet again, but he didn't answer. But I thought he also wanted to see me again. After returning to Baiyue, I talked to Yutan about what I saw and heard in Nanyue, and how I felt about Helian, but Yutan said that I was crazy and fell in love with a Nanyue. I saw that he was angry and didn't want to Arguing with him, but I feel selfishly that no matter what country Helian is from, he is the biggest gain from my trip to South Vietnam. And I want to withdraw my previous evaluation. Although Helian is indeed an ice cube, he is not dull. If I go to South Vietnam again next time, I will only write a book about Helian's experience, and record what this boring gourd has done."

Ye Yunting's eyes fell on the word "Yutan", a little stunned.

This name appeared twice, but the first time he thought it was a female name, he didn't take it to heart.It wasn't until the last paragraph that he realized that "Yutan" was actually a man's name.It's a good friend of the author, who lives in Shangjing for a long time, and only occasionally comes to Baiyue for a short stay.

Yutan lived in Shangjing for a long time.

Did it happen to have the same name, or is this author's friend really... Ye Zhili?

——Ye Yunting also heard Yin's mention by chance, and only then did he know that his father, Ye Zhili, also had a nickname called Yutan.Because he was very thin when he was born, like a girl doll, he was given such a nickname just now, hoping that he will grow stronger.

According to the information disclosed in the travel notes, a rough calculation shows that the time of the travel notes was about 23 or 20 years ago, and the woman who wrote the travel notes was about fifteen or sixteen years old.However, it is mentioned in the travel notes that the jade sandalwood is bigger, and it is the existence of the author who is also a brother and a friend.Calculated according to the time, Ye Zhili was about 21 years old more than [-] years ago, and his age is also suitable.

But he had never heard that Ye Zhili had such a close friend and sister.If there is such a existence, Yin's jealousy will definitely bring it up.But he has never heard the Yin family or the old people in the mansion mention this person.

Could it be that they just happen to have the same name?

Ye Yunting thought about it for a while, but couldn't think of a result, so he could only keep this matter in his heart, and looked for other books to read, without bothering to think about it.

***

After staying in Zhuangzi for four or five days like this, after dinner and digestion, Li Fengqi invited Ye Yunting to soak in the hot spring as usual.

——In the past few days, the two of them would go to the hot spring to relax before going to bed every day, and they slept more soundly at night.

It's just that when changing the bathrobe this day, Ye Yunting suddenly found a lump in his lower abdomen, which was not as flat and firm as before.Although he is not as well-defined as Li Fengqi, his abdomen was still flat and firm before.

Ye Yunting couldn't help stretching out his hand to pinch the bulge, his brows gradually wrinkled, and his expression was very dignified - it seemed that it was indeed softer and more fleshy.

When Li Fengqi changed into his bathrobe and came over, he saw him staring at his abdomen with a serious face.

"What are you looking at?"

Ye Yunting was startled, subconsciously raised his head and tucked in his stomach, pretending nothing happened: "It's nothing."

But he moved too hastily, the belt was not fastened, and the neckline was loose and open, revealing most of his fair chest.Li Fengqi turned his eyes and saw a light red on his chest, and two crimson dogwoods where the light red spread.

Li Fengqi coughed lightly, moved his eyes to other places, but his mouth refused to calm down: "Did the eldest son really regard me as his wife?"

Ye Yunting didn't realize the deep meaning in his words at first, but when he came back to his senses and noticed the loose collar, he finally realized something, and quickly closed his eyes, his ears slightly warmed.

He raised his head calmly, but met Li Fengqi's teasing eyes.

"..." When her face was red and her ears were hot, a sense of unwillingness welled up in her heart.

Why should he be embarrassed?They are all men, even if they give Li Fengqi a second look, half a piece of meat will still be missing.

Ye Yunting stared at Li Fengqi for a few moments, smiled under his teasing eyes, and suddenly raised his hand to loosen the fastened belt, deliberately revealing a large chest.

"Shall I carry the prince down first?" He pretended nothing happened.

"..." This time it was Li Fengqi's throat that rolled, and it took him a long time to utter the word "good".

Ye Yunting raised his lips, picked him up and carefully put him into the pool.After he sat down firmly, he didn't leave, but sat down opposite Li Fengqi - because the cold poison in his body was not cleared, Li Fengqi soaked the pool like a medicinal spring, and there were a lot of medicinal herbs in it.Earlier, Ye Yunting disliked the smell of medicine, so he shared the pool with him.

But today he was suffocating and struggling in his heart, so he didn't dislike the unpleasant smell of medicinal materials.

He stretched his arms and sat relaxedly opposite Li Fengqi.

Because of the medicinal materials in the pool, the spring water was dyed light beige.In the brown pool water, one could vaguely see the snow-white limbs stretched out, like lotus roots growing out of the mud, which dazzled Li Fengqi's eyes.

Li Fengqi took a deep breath and turned his eyes away.But the image in my mind still lingers.

Why didn't he think Ye Yunting was so white before?

The exposed neck and arms were like lotus root joints, white and raw, fumigated by the warm water vapor, showing a slight red, with a few touches of light red mixed in the snow white, which made his mouth dry.

Li Fengqi restrained his gaze, but felt a little annoyed in his heart, Ye Yunting looked at it, as if on purpose.

He ground his teeth, if it wasn't for him, he wouldn't be well now.he must...

Just as he was in a trance, Ye Yunting suddenly exclaimed: "My lord! Why do you have a nosebleed?"

Li Fengqi:? ? ? ?

He frowned, and wiped under his nose hesitantly, and sure enough, he touched the wet blood stains.

"..." Li Fengqi's expression was slightly stiff, and he said bluntly: "Perhaps it's because I have soaked too much in the hot springs recently, and I got angry."

"Really?" Ye Yunting was dubious, got up and stepped out of the pool, casually put on a robe, and wiped his face with a handkerchief.But he moved in a hurry, and he hadn't had time to change into the soaked bathrobe. Inside the loose outer robe, there was a wet bathrobe that clung to his body, outlining the curves of his body vividly.

Li Fengqi took a look, there was more blood under his nose.

"Why haven't you stopped yet?" Ye Yunting was really worried this time, he carried him out and put him on the wheelchair, then wrapped him in a thick blanket, and frowned, he wanted to go out to pass on to the doctor.

"Come back." Li Fengqi looked at his back, pinched the bridge of his nose with one hand, and tightly grasped the armrest of the wheelchair with the other, gritted his teeth and said, "Change your clothes before going." After a pause, he added abruptly: "It's cold outside. , be careful of the wind and cold."

Seeing that his face was turning blue, Ye Yunting had no time to argue, and quickly went behind the screen to change into clean clothes, put on a cloak and went outside to call for help.

When the doctor arrived, Li Fengqi had already left the hot spring pool, changed into dry clothes, and was pressed on the bed by Ye Yunting.

The nosebleed stopped, but his face was still ashen.

The old doctor with a gray beard held his wrist for a moment and said with a smile, "My lord is fine."

Ye Yunting was worried: "Then why did the nose bleed suddenly, and it couldn't be stopped?"

The old doctor glanced at him, and reminded vaguely: "The prince is very energetic, and he will have this symptom after holding it for a long time. Eat less nourishing food on weekdays, and just relieve it reasonably."

After finishing speaking, he wrote Zhang Qingre's prescription for reducing fire and handed it to Ye Yunting: "Just follow this prescription for two days."

Ye Yunting saw that the main medicine of the prescription was Coptis chinensis, and it was really just for clearing heat and removing fire.

Frowning to send the old doctor away, he ordered Ji Lian to go to the steward to get the medicinal materials, while thinking about what the old doctor said just now, and then he was taken aback, and finally realized the old doctor's hidden reminder belatedly.

"???"

He turned his head slowly and stared at Li Fengqi with wide eyes.

Hold up?

Li Fengqi smashed the jar, looking like a rascal: "Young Master, did you hear what the doctor said just now? I can't hold back this illness." He dragged out his tone: "It needs to be relieved...reasonably."

Ye Yunting sneered suddenly: "The doctor also said that the prince must drink medicine properly."

After finishing speaking, he left Li Fengqi behind and strode out of the room with the prescription.

Half an hour later, Li Fengqi stared at the soup in front of him that exuded a bitter taste, and said with a livid face: "I'm fine, and I don't have to drink this."

Ye Yunting smiled and put a spoonful into his mouth. "Good medicine tastes bitter and is good for the disease. Coptis chinensis clears the heat and reduces the fire. If the prince drinks it for a few more days, his nosebleeds won't stop."

Li Fengqi: ...
