make me clear

"What!" Overly shocked, the cup in his palm couldn't bear such a hard squeeze and burst.The fragments pierced into the palm, and the bright red blood rolled down like broken beads, but the listener didn't seem to notice it at all, staring at the trembling servant in front of him with cold star-like eyes.

The boy who came to report was taken aback by Situ Yu's violent reaction, and knelt down with a trembling "plop", fearing that the other party would vent his thunderous anger on him, and continued in a trembling voice, "everything you say, the little one It's true. Just last night, the seventh son kept vomiting non-stop. The younger one was going to report to the general, but the seventh son stopped him. He said, "It's late at night, and I'm afraid the general has already rested, so it's better not to bother the younger one. He dared to make a mistake and followed his suggestion. Who would have thought that this morning when I went to deliver him some soup, I found that there were large red, swollen and transparent blisters on the back of his hand. The little one saw that Qi Gongzi was hot all over, but his face was extremely pale , Knowing that something is wrong, he immediately called for a doctor, but he said...he said he was infected with the plague..." The little servant kept talking in a low voice, and fell on the ground in panic, his thin body trembling.

Situ Yu still couldn't believe it, but it was only a month ago when he was caught in the rain... I went to see him a few days ago. Although his complexion was not very good, he was still in good spirits, and he could still joke with himself with a playful smile. Why...

"I'll go and see him." Situ Yu hurriedly raised his foot and was about to walk out the door.

"General, your hand." Xiao Ji, who was waiting outside the door, hurriedly followed, not forgetting to remind, "If the wound is not bandaged, what if it becomes infected?"

The person who was walking forward turned a deaf ear and strode away with a very firm attitude.Xiaoji had no choice but to trot along with his steps so as not to fall down.

He himself didn't quite understand what kind of thoughts he had towards this Lu Renjia. What he hated the most on weekdays was his low-browed flattery, and it was inevitable to ridicule him and laugh at him.But at this moment, hearing that his life was dying, my heart became tense for no reason, and I couldn't believe it.How could such a rascal and cunning person suddenly become seriously ill?I can't rule out going to see him, except for a little bit of pity, but more doubts.But I really entered the unusually deserted courtyard. In the empty courtyard, the autumn wind blows the withered and yellow leaves, fluttering, and looks very depressed. The footsteps step on the unproductive leaves, and there is a crackling sound. , making his heart tighten for no reason.The chest was oppressed by the dark breath, which was extremely uncomfortable.He seemed to be back at the age of 19, the moment when Mi Xiang gave birth to an heir and died for him.

Lu Renjia couldn't stand the wind, so he locked the doors and windows tightly. The room was extremely dark. Situ Yu stepped into the inner room, his vision was gray, his nostrils were filled with a strong smell of medicine, and he heard the suppressed voice of the people inside. The sound of coughing and the dead atmosphere made his heroic brows furrowed, and he realized that there was no servant accompanying him.Suddenly, a burst of anger erupted, and he reprimanded in a cold voice, "Who is on duty by the seventh son's side today!"

The two people following behind were startled by Situ Yu's cool growl, and quickly knelt down.The boy who had gone to report to Lu Renjia before was trembling like autumn leaves in the wind, sweating like rain, and stammered in panic, "Yes, yes... the little one and a maid named Li Tao."

"Hmph, pull that Litao out and chop it up." Situ Yu's face was ashen, ignoring the servant behind him who was paralyzed from fright, and entered the inner room with a flick of his sleeve.

In a daze, Lu Renjia had heard Situ Yu's angry words, struggling to sit up, and leaned weakly on the bed.The dry hair was casually draped over the face, the haggard sunken eye sockets were covered with black ash, and the skin on the face was enveloped by a sallow, dead air. She looked at him quietly without speaking.

Situ Yu couldn't believe it, and strode forward, looking at his dismal and defeated appearance.Seeing him covering his mouth with his hands, coughing in a muffled voice, his thin and thin shoulders shrinking and shrinking, he was very pitiful.

Situ Yu had never been a sympathetic person, but seeing him like this at this time, his heart felt sour, he walked up to him, stretched out his hand stiffly to gently caress his back, to help him calm down, Xiao Ji beside him hurriedly He brought warm water and handed it over.

Situ Yu picked it up and wanted to feed him himself.Lu Renjia shook his head, pulled up his sleeves, exposed a section of blistered, red and swollen arm to Situ Yu's sight, and said weakly, "General, don't get too close to me, lest the disease will be contagious. If there is something good or bad...cough cough... ...that was my fault..."

Situ Yu paid no attention to him, pressed down his hand, clasped his pulse gate with his fingers, felt the fragile pulse of the gossamer, was startled, and then looked at his withered face, his chest was empty.I believe it a little bit, the life of this rascal in front of me is not long.Hearing his hoarse and bitter words seemed to have sharp hooks, ruthlessly hooking his resigned heart and torturing him unscrupulously, Situ Yu was depressed, feeling as if he was being strangled by his neck and suffocating.Sitting stubbornly by his bed, regardless of the other person's illness, she took him into her arms and fed warm water into his mouth spoon by spoon.

Lu Renjia was flattered and stared at him blankly, some water vapor slowly gathered in his eyes, his chapped lips were slightly opened, Situ Yu felt his breathing like a gossamer, and just wanted to hug him tighter.Lu Renjia had never snuggled into his arms so docilely like today, felt his warmth, and said hoarsely, "I never knew that the general...would treat me like this..."

Situ Yu caressed his pale and almost transparent face with pity, as if he was holding up a fragile crystal carefully, and his warm breath gently brushed his cold face. The feeling of cherishing, realizing this, a bitter self-mockery appeared on his lips.

"I won't let you die, we will set off tonight to Yaowangzhuang."

Lu Renjia shook his head feebly, "I've run out of fuel, and I'm in a precarious state. Why bother dragging down the general's chariots and horses again...It should be like this...cough cough cough..."

Situ Yu couldn't help but feel sad for his passivity, and said forcefully, "I said I won't let you die, and you won't die. Live well for me!"

At this time, a little maid came up with soup and medicine, but seeing how unsurprised Situ Yu was in vain, she hurriedly lowered herself respectfully to pay her respects.After handing the medicine bowl to Situ Yu, he quietly stepped aside and stood with his head bowed.

"Open your mouth." Situ Yu ordered, staring at Lu Renjia's chapped lips, "How can you get better if you don't take medicine."

Lu Renjia had no choice but to open his mouth. Unexpectedly, he was scalded by the decoction in his mouth. He leaned over to vomit, but accidentally knocked over the decoction in Situ Yu's hand. The black decoction was spilled on the ground, and the floor covered with gray and white tiles had a strange layer for no reason. yellow bubbles.

Lu Renjia looked at everything in front of him, clutching the mattress with withered fingers, until his knuckles turned white, biting his lower lip tightly, staring at the medicine stains left on the ground.

Situ Yu's face darkened in an instant, and he turned around and shot his sharp arrow eyes at the little maid who brought the medicine, suppressing the overwhelming anger in his heart, and said coldly, "Did you fry this medicine yourself?"

When had the little maid seen Situ Yu so gloomy and terrifying before, her eyes were red with fright, she knelt down on the ground softly, and stammered, "No, no, no, I'm not a servant, a servant is only responsible for serving medicine, and medicine is food." The house steward is in charge. The slaves don’t know anything, please spare me, General.”

"Come here, drag this lowly maidservant down for me." Situ Yu's handsome face was ashen, and he ordered sharply, "Detain all the staff and managers in the dining room, and wait for me to interrogate myself!"

Turning around again, I saw that the thin body on the bed seemed to have lost its soul, its empty eyes were lifeless, and a bitter self-mockery appeared on the tightly pursed lips.Situ Yu's eyes were stabbed by the person in front of him, he gently hugged him into his arms, and said solemnly and firmly, "I will definitely give you an explanation."

"Hahaha..." Lu Renjia laughed inexplicably, and the laughter felt miserable and desolate for no reason.The body lying in his arms kept trembling, Situ Yu couldn't bear it, and pulled him to comfort him, but Lu Renjia suddenly covered his chest, vomited a mouthful of blood, and then began to cough lifelessly.

Xiaoji, who was waiting by his side, hurried forward and pulled Situ Yu up with worry and anxiety, "General, don't get too close, I'm afraid... it's really..."

Situ Yu glared at Xiao Ji with sharp eyes and scolded him for his recklessness.Carefully laying Lu Renjia flat on the bed, staring at him with deep and dark eyes, such a domineering and powerful person would actually show sadness and helplessness.Being looked at by him like this, Lu Renjia knew in his heart that he believed him to some extent, but why did he start to feel a little guilty.Afraid of being seen through his mind, he turned his face away as if trying to escape, and pulled up the quilt vigorously, covering most of his cheeks.

Before leaving, Situ Yu didn't forget to glance at him, and said in a low voice, "You will be fine."

When Situ Yu left the courtyard, his whole body seemed to be covered in a layer of gray mist, and he felt unable to exert any strength.He ordered someone to stew a thousand-year-old ginseng treasured in the mansion. He only hoped that Lu Renjia would drink it, and he could breathe a sigh of relief, and he could last until he reached Yaowangzhuang.Many things in the house were handed over to Zhaohua to take care of, and he also arranged the big and small affairs of the Gongmen properly.After making some arrangements, it was already dusk, and Situ Yu prepared the carriage and was about to leave for Lu Renjia's courtyard.

There was a crying sound not far away, and Situ Yu took a closer look, and saw that a maid was running towards him anxiously, his brows were furrowed, and bad premonitions condensed in his heart little by little.

The servant girl fell down, and regardless of the pain in her body, she knelt down at Situ Yu's feet and sobbed, "General... the seventh son...he's dead..."
