Brother Donggong

As soon as the twelfth lunar month enters, the days pass quickly, and it will be the end of the month in a blink of an eye.

On the day of the winter solstice, Wen Zhan held a sacrificial ceremony at the altar.He was freezing cold and blowing the north wind all day, and at night he started to feel a little hot.We did not return to the palace after returning to Yongjing, but settled in the Xiaoxing Palace.

Liu Congrong made medicine juice and broth for him, and fed him to eat. I wrapped him up in a quilt and let him lie down.

Wen Zhan grabbed my wrist and refused to let me go, so I could only sit by the bed and accompany him.

After that day, that is, after the day when he said harsh words, it seemed that what he said was just angry words, and he became much kinder.His words are much softer, he no longer troubles me, beats me, and doesn't push me to bed to death.

He is much more normal now, and today he just whispered, "Stay with me."

I knew I should hide as far as I could, but I didn't refuse him.

Quiet now, I have been thinking hard, am I really afraid.

That day, the prince said, whoever I marry, he will destroy him, and later he said that was an angry word, and it doesn’t count, but... I can’t forget the look in his eyes when he spoke—black, black Amazing, dark and terrible!

Whatever he says, he can do!

In fact, the day my father and my mother told me to marry a wife, I was really tempted.

If it's my father's intention, then maybe I can really break away from my current life and change to a brand new way of living.

I have always been afraid, I am afraid that I will go back to the time in the past, watching Ayila die, and also watching that child die, I can't save them, and my mother is almost beaten into limbo, Don't even think about turning over in this life, Cui's family was ransacked (Cui Bicheng was at that time who completely surrendered to His Highness the Third Highness, and hooked up with Young Master Du), and I could hardly save myself.

So, I started to have a little fear of 'home'.

I am a bachelor now, I can eat enough for one person, and the whole family is not hungry.

Although there are still the burdens of those crooked melons and dates in my palace, but those crooked melons and dates have their own livelihood after all, even if they are dragged down by me, they will not have a way to survive.

If Cucumber is not in charge of me, he can go back to the Forbidden Palace. Even if he can’t go back to Dazheng Palace, he can go to Yuntai Temple in Nanshan. There are eunuchs without homes. Li Fang is in charge, and he can get shelter there .

Feng Xiaosheng Xie Meng doesn't need me to worry about it.

Cui Bicheng is exquisite and has all kinds of faces, and he has everything from one side to the other. The Third Highness, Mr. Du, and the others can't bear to part with this God of Wealth.

Xiaolian...he is more complicated.

His life experience is a mystery, and his origin is unknown.

But that's good too, no matter whether he belongs to Third Highness Yu Lan or not, at least he won't hang himself on my tree.

My mother, she is naturally taken care of by my father, even if my father is promoted, Lao Cui will not abandon her.

what about me?

I thought about it, and even the third girl of Uncle Lu's family, who is the gatekeeper in my palace garden, thought of my destination, and finally I remembered, what about me?

If I muddle along like this, come to the world so wronged and walk around, and end up with no father, no mother, no brothers, no wife, no children, and then walk away in a wimpy way, so Thinking about it, why did I suddenly feel a suffocating pressure in my throat, as if the breath I swallowed in my previous life was about to be swallowed again by me, I am so wronged!

I also want to change my way of life, so when my mother asked me to marry a wife and have a baby, I was really tempted.

only……

The prince's toughness is beyond my expectation.

I always thought that I would follow him in some things, and he would take a step back in some things. We can make do with it and get by as long as we can. After a long time, he gets tired of it, so let's forget about our fooling around.

He is my own younger brother, he is the crown prince now, and he will be the lord in the future.

In the past, I would love him like a younger brother. From now on, I think, I will be as loyal to him as I am to my father. I think, maybe one day I can die for him...

But... I don't love him like I love Ayla.

I can't give him what he wants.

I tried, I really tried,..., unfortunately, it still doesn't work.

Wen Zhan is heavy in my heart, so heavy that it can even crush my life, but I just can't fall in love with him, can't fall in love with him like a lover.

Today is the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year and the longest night.After today, after eating dumplings, the whole winter will be the coldest season.

The wind outside seemed to be blowing all the time, it was terribly cold, but there was no snowflakes, I could vaguely hear eunuchs whispering outside, "This is what God wanted to accept", but after Liu Congrong said something, they stopped talking .

The surroundings are extremely quiet, only some porcelain plates, and the slight sound of porcelain bowls hitting the table.

Liu Congrong is preparing vegetables.

It was supposed to be warmly waiting for dinner, but for some reason, I suddenly felt uneasy.

I don't know how long I sat, it didn't feel right.

Wen Zhan didn't seem to be exerting any strength in clutching my wrist.

I'm afraid of pain, so I wouldn't struggle too much when he pulled me, so I didn't pay attention. When I tried to lift my wrist away, Wen Zhan's fingers had actually loosened.

I held down his pulse with my backhand and counted it secretly. Wen Zhan's pulse was weak and beat very fast.

His palms were hot but not sweaty.

I pushed him, "Your Highness, Your Highness?"

He lay quietly, breathing a little weakly.

I brought a bowl of tea over and wanted to feed him a sip, "Wen Zhan, Wen Zhan, wake up, drink some water to moisten your throat before you sleep?"

No one answered.

I touched his forehead with my fingers and it was hot.

not good!

Wen Zhan, this is high fever!

I hurriedly helped him cover the quilt, raised some curtains, and looked at Wen Zhan lying with his eyes closed by a candle. He seemed to be sleeping very restlessly, and his cheeks were still flushed... His brows were also slightly frowned, It's like a nightmare that I can't break free from.

"Willow buds! Willow buds!"

I yelled in a hurry, Liu Congrong, who seemed to be preparing vegetables outside, came in quickly, and the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus wine was still on the robe.

Liu Congrong, "My lord, this servant is here."

I don't know what's wrong, I just feel flustered.

I have seen the arrogant Wen Zhan, the proud Wen Zhan, the domineering Wen Zhan, and even the sinister Wen Zhan, but I have never seen him sick and weak.

He lay there limp and limp, as if he was about to die.

I trembled at Liu Ya's voice, "You... hurry up and call Doctor Lin..."

As if he understood what I said, Liu Congrong was stunned for a moment, looked at me with his eyes, then swept Wen Zhan lying on the bed, turned around suddenly, and almost ran away.

It was cold and gloomy outside, Lin Ruoqian from Taiyuan Hospital arrived, Liu Congrong lifted the thick felt curtain to let him in, bringing in some cold air.

I don't like the group of things in the hospital, I always feel that they are not fun.Incompetent, timid, and prevarication.It turned out that Wen Zhan's dental disease could never be cured, and that was the reason.

But Lin Ruoqian was different from that group of them.

Lin Ruoqian was born in a family in southern Jiangsu, and was a serious Jinshi in the second list. He has been working in the Hanlin Academy for such a bitter job as editing and writing.Every day is really just reading, reading, and reading again. Compared with the people around him, he seems out of place. He doesn't ask for a teacher, doesn't drink, doesn't play cards, doesn't accept gifts or give money, and seems very unpopular.

I guess if someone like him wants to join the cabinet, he will have to wait for his next life.

Therefore, he resigned from his post as an editor of the Imperial Academy in line with the principle of "If you are not a good look, you are a good doctor", and hung the pot to help the world.

In the first few years, he traveled to the world, tasted herbs like Shennong, classified the herbs in the world, wrote down their efficacy, origin, where they can be eaten, and drew pictures. He wanted to compile a collection of herbs.

My father didn't know where to find him and let him work in Tai Hospital.To say that he didn't get along well with those old imperial doctors, but my father still left him the position of doctor in the imperial hospital.

Lin Ruoqian was very thin, wearing a gray-blue padded robe, and his hair was scruffy

He carried a medicine box and followed behind Liu Congrong. He sniffed it with his nose as soon as he entered the door, and then walked over without even seeing a salute. A maid gave him a silver bottle and asked him to wash his hands. When he came up, he greeted me Said, "My lord, please take off His Highness's clothes..."
