The wind and rain have stopped, the weather has cleared up, and only the next day is left for the three-day Mid-Autumn Festival. It is said that the moon is sixteen on the fifteenth day, Qi Xiao doesn't want to miss it, even if he is injured, he still wants to take Tang Ling out to play.

It was almost dusk, the carriages were all set up, Qi Xiao and Tang Ling were about to go out, but guests came to the courtyard.

The guard came to report that the man called himself Chi Yue.

"Bring it in quickly."

Chi Yue smiled when he saw Qi Xiao and Tang Ling, and knelt down on one knee: "Chi Yue sees Your Highness, Young Master."

Chi Yue didn't change his mind easily, he was travel-laden, and at first glance he came here in a hurry.

"Get up.

Chi Yue, why are you here? "

Chi Yue blinked: "Did Your Highness ask knowingly?"

"Zong Sheng is waiting for you at Luxi."

Of course Qi Xiao knew that Chi Yue would come, he feigned death to escape, His Majesty was full of resentment, and he would definitely not let him and Tang Ling go easily, it was only a matter of time before Tiance camp came.

Because of this, Tang Ling arranged more guards in the small courtyard, and even Qi Xiao was almost not allowed to go to the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Chi Yue smiled: "I know."

"Where's Zong Sheng? You came alone?"

Chi Yue didn't stand up, but instead changed his kneeling posture and said, "Chi Yue is here to beg His Highness and Young Master for help."

Tang Ling stepped forward and reached out to help Chi Yue up: "Get up first, and speak slowly."

"Chi Yue was ordered by His Majesty to come to the state of Zhou to assassinate the young master."

Tang Ling and Qi Xiao were not surprised to hear this, none of them interrupted Chi Yue, waiting for him to continue.

"The more I can't do this task pool, the more I can only come to ask His Highness and Young Master for help.

Whether His Majesty sent other people out, I don't know, His Highness and Young Master should be careful. "

Tang Ling asked: "With your disguise technique, it should be easy to escape. Since you came to us but didn't kill me, I owe you my life. Don't ask for words. Is there anything we can do?"

Chi Yue smiled: "Young Master is quick-witted and can guess everything."

Chi Yue took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, held it to Tang Ling, restrained his smile, and said very seriously: "The poison on my body has accumulated over the years, and the medicine inside can last my life for half a year. If it doesn't work, or if I flee privately, if I don't get the medicine from His Majesty, I will fester and die within three months. The process is extremely painful and the death condition is miserable.

Please Your Highness and Young Master take pity on me and save me. "

Qi Xiao looked at Chi Yue, he wasn't shocked, if Tiance Camp didn't have such means, Chi Yue would have escaped without a trace with Chi Yue's disguise technique, why should he suffer the humiliation and torture that ordinary people can't stand?It's just that even though it was expected, he still couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.

Without further ado, Tang Ling called Qing Lan first.

Qing Lan came very quickly, thinking that something happened to Tang Ling, she ran all the way over, only to be relieved when she saw that Tang Ling was fine, and her face changed after hearing Chi Yue's vicious expression.

Qing Lan held a small pill in the small porcelain bottle in her hand and sniffed it, then felt Chi Yue's pulse, her brows furrowed.

"how?"

"I have never seen this poison before, I need Chi Yue's blood, a small piece of flesh, and this medicine, I have to study it carefully.

But, Chi Yue, do you only have one medicine?If I melt it, if I can't make the same medicine... But if I don't melt it, I won't be able to test the medicinal ingredients. "

Chi Yue looked at Qing Lan, and said after a long time: "The last time I took the medicine was three months ago, so I still have six months left.

Qinglan, you use the medicine, I will come back in five months. "

"Huh? You're not staying here?"

Chi Yue shook his head: "I'm going to find Zong Sheng."

Qing Lan opened her mouth, but said nothing.

Chi Yue said to Qi Xiao and Tang Ling: "Chi Yue has one last thing to ask His Highness and Young Master."

Both Qi Xiao and Tang Ling were stunned for a moment, and they looked at each other. They had guessed what Chi Yue was asking for, but they didn't want to agree.

"If Qing Lan fails to make the medicine, please Your Highness and Young Master please hide it from Zong Sheng for me.

Never say.

Even if you let that piece of wood wait foolishly in Luxi for the rest of your life, don't tell him. "

Chi Yue lowered his head slightly, and couldn't help a little rippling in his eyes. He is such a selfish person, even if he wants Zong Sheng to wait for him who will never appear again, he still hopes that he will wait, and he doesn't want to be caught by others. people replace.

Qi Xiao and Tang Ling didn't speak for a while, Chi Yue waited, but couldn't wait any longer, raised his face and said with a smile: "I will be your Highness and your son promised me.

Then I'll come back in five months.

Here, Chi Yue thanked His Highness, Young Master, and Qing Lan. "

Qing Lan said: "Chi Yue, come with me, I need a piece of your flesh."

"it is good."

Qing Lan took Chi Yue to the wing room, and Qi Xiao and Tang Ling faced each other, still speechless for a long time.

Qi Xiao regards Zong Sheng as a relative, and if Chi Yue died because of him, he doesn't know how to face Zong Sheng in the future.

Perhaps half of Chi Yue's last request was to prevent Qi Xiao from dealing with such a situation, but Qi Xiao couldn't bear it in his heart.

Tang Ling held Qi Xiao's hand and said softly, "It's not your fault."

"I should have thought of it earlier..."

"Qi Xiao, leave it to Qing Lan, and there will be a solution."

Qi Xiao sighed, nodded and said, "Qing Lan has excellent medical skills, and she will find a solution."

In the wing room, Qing Lan gouged out a piece of flesh from Chi Yue's arm, and it was dripping with blood immediately. Chi Yue didn't say anything, but Qing Lan gasped.

"I'll bandage the wound for you, don't touch the water for a few days.

You will also get medicine for golden sores, remember to change the medicine every day. "

"Thank you."

Qing Lan looked at Chi Yue, and said, "You come every month, I won't melt the medicine first, if I can separate the poison from your flesh and blood, maybe I don't need to melt the medicine."

Chi Yue's eyes lit up: "Can it work?"

Qing Lan was silent for a moment, then said: "I can only try.

This poison has been on your body for more than ten years, and you have also taken the medicine for more than ten years. The poison and the properties of the medicine are mixed together, and I am afraid that it is not the same as the original poison. "

Chi Yue smiled: "I understand, thank you."

***

Chi Yue came out of Tang Ling's small courtyard and hurried to Luxi, and finally reached the place when the moon reached mid-heaven.

Today is Jiwang, the last day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, even a small place like Luxi is very lively, with lights and festoons.

Chi Yue led the horse through the crowd, the cries of street stalls, and the laughter and laughter that passed him by, all seemed to be urging him to go fast.

The lotus pool is bustling with people, and the lotus lanterns are lit in the pool, as if the ink-colored fine forging is decorated with night pearls, which is outrageously extravagant.

Chi Yue asked Zong Sheng to wait here, but the crowd was so vast that it was impossible to find it among thousands of people.

Chi Yue moved out of the crowd, looking at the bright lights and crowds, he felt sore for a moment, if there were only six months left, wouldn't it be better if he didn't come to Zong Sheng?In the last three months, his life would be worse than death, and he didn't want Zong Sheng to see it.

If he went to find him now, Chi Yue was also afraid that when that time came, he would not have the courage to leave Zong Sheng.

Chi Yue held the rein in his hand, not knowing where he was going.

If there are only six months left, and he can't even spend the last time with Zong Sheng, he might as well die right now, why should he be tortured by the rotten intestines and rotten body.

The sound of the wind blowing from the sleeves of his clothes reached his ears, and Chi Yue turned his head vigilantly. A figure came towards him, but Chi Yue didn't move.

Zong Sheng hugged him tightly and said nothing, with a slight smile on his face.

"You... how..."

"go home."

Zong Sheng held Chi Yue with one hand, took the reins of the horse with the other, and brought Chi Yue home.

He bought a house by the lotus pond, spent a lot of money, and arrived there not long after walking.

"Pond House" is written on the plaque.

The surname Chi is very rare in the state of Zhou. Zong Sheng thought it would be easy to find, but he didn't expect Chi Yue to stand outside the crowd in a daze.

Chi Yue looked at the plaque on the door in a daze for a moment, and asked, "How did you find me?"

This house is easy to find, but it is not easy to find someone in the crowd.

Zong Sheng raised his finger and pointed to the high wall: "I have been sitting there."

"Squat on the wall?" Chi Yue laughed, so cute and silly, "You've been waiting for me?"

"Ah."

Chi Yue pushed the door open and entered the courtyard, and pulled Zong Sheng in as well. Before the door could be closed, he jumped on Zong Sheng and kissed him hard.

Zong Sheng hugged Chi Yue to his full arms and held him tightly, only his breathing and his own heartbeat could be heard in his ears.

Chi Yue felt something pressing against the heel of his leg, and couldn't help laughing: "So anxious?"

"……Um."

Chi Yue laughed for a while, rubbed against Zong Sheng viciously, and added some fuel to his fire. He laughed even more happily when he heard Zong Sheng holding back his muffled groans.

Chi Yue was smiling when he suddenly heard movement in the yard, and his face sank for a moment.

He turned his head to look over, and after a while, a small figure emerged from the corridor.

"Hey?" A seven or eight-year-old girl held a rabbit lamp, staring at Chi Yue and Zong Sheng who were close to each other with her big round eyes.

Chi Yue stretched out his hand and grabbed Zong Sheng's neck, but he didn't really use any force: "I haven't seen you for a long time. Your daughter is already this old?"

Zong Sheng blushed: "Nonsense, I picked this child up."

"You picked it up? Be my child bride?"

"..." Chi Yue was so jealous that Zong Sheng didn't know how to explain it. Zong Sheng picked up Chi Yue and walked straight to the wing room in the inner courtyard.

Chi Yue couldn't hold back his laughter, turned his head and said to the little girl, "Good boy, close the door of the house and go play by yourself, don't bother you if you hear anything."

Zong Sheng put Chi Yue on the bed, undressed him and asked, "Why are you injured?"

When he was hugging Chi Yue just now, Zong Sheng could vaguely smell the bloody smell on his body, which was a fresh wound.

Chi Yue tore off Zong Sheng's belt with one hand, and smiled indifferently: "Skin injuries, it doesn't matter."

Zong Sheng leaned on Chi Yue's body, and gently kissed the bandaged wound.

"It doesn't hurt."

"I hurt."

Chi Yue dragged Zong Sheng's face and kissed him, sorry, sorry.

……

In the middle of every month, Chi Yue would always go out and leave for three or four days. When he came back, he would always have a wound on his body, which was not serious. As he said, it was just a flesh wound, and it was slowly healing after applying medicine.

Zong Sheng asked every time, and Chi Yue's answer was the same every time: It's nothing, just a minor injury.

Zong Sheng guessed where Chi Yue had gone, but he still couldn't know the reason.

He didn't like Chi Yue hiding from him or lying to him, but he had no other choice but to wait for Chi Yue to tell him himself.

Just after the new year, Chi Yue spent the Lantern Festival with Zong Sheng, but the next day he left again, kissed Zong Sheng before leaving, and repeated the same sentence: "Be good and wait for me to come back."

This time, Chi Yue left for a while.

"Brother, it's cold outside, go in and wait."

The little girl was sitting next to Zong Sheng at the gate of the house, looking at the frozen pool water, and the cold wind poured from her mouth all the way into her stomach when she said a word, making her shiver.

"You go in."

"Brother," the little girl covered her mouth with her sleeve before she dared to speak again, "What if brother Chi Yue doesn't come back?"

"I promised to wait for him."

"Brother, are you stupid?"

Zong Sheng sighed softly: "Maybe."

"Actually, you know where Brother Chi Yue has gone, right? Why didn't you go to him?" The little girl is very clever. Compared to her, Zong Sheng is really stupid.

"He'll be mad if I'm not there when he comes back."

The little girl rolled her eyes: "I'm here, I'll tell him that you went to find him."

Zong Sheng glanced at the little girl lightly, and said, "He doesn't need me to find him, he just needs me to wait for him here.

As long as I'm waiting, he'll be back. "

Chi Yue, come back.
