twilight endless

The summer in the country of Ana is too short, and only in September, there is not much autumn color left. The northwesterly wind gathers in the north of the pass, waiting for the right time to rush in with the wind and snow.The pastures on the grasslands are used to this, they seize all the time to grow wildly in the short summer, and reserve enough power to withstand the wind and snow.Looking at the increasingly cloudy sky in the northwest, Liu Ya hopes that Xi Yuan can be as resilient as the grass on the grassland.It's a pity that Xiyuan is not grass, she is a small flower seedling that blooms in the greenhouse of the imperial capital, she has never seen a real snowstorm, when the real cold hits, she can do nothing but hide in a corner and shiver Won't.

"Liu Ya..." Xi Yuan said weakly, "I still feel a little cold, please help me make a charcoal fire."

"Too much charcoal fire will choke people. The Lord's cough has just recovered, and the smoke cannot be too heavy." Liu Ya gently tucked the corner of the quilt for Xi Yuan, and coaxed, "Let me give the Lord some soup. .”

"En." Xi Yuan nodded obediently, and fell asleep again drowsily.

In the dream, it seemed that a raging snowstorm fell from the sky, and Xi Yuan was deeply trapped in it.Xiyuan couldn't see the sky when she raised her head, and couldn't see the road under her feet when she lowered her head. She couldn't help being startled and panicked, crying and calling for Rui'er, but Rui'er didn't respond to her.

"Ruier, where are you?" Xiyuan was crying and bumping around, "Where are you? Do you want me? Ruier, I'm afraid, don't leave me."

Xi Yuan stumbled forward in the blizzard, endured the bone-like cold wind, and felt blood dripping all over her body after a while.

"Ruier!" Xi Yuan screamed in horror, "Am I going to die? I'm afraid! Ruier, where are you!"

A figure came from a distance against the wind and snow, Xi Yuan was overjoyed, and ran over while shouting "Ruier", throwing himself into the person's arms recklessly.

"Rui'er, you're finally here." Xi Yuan's words contained endless grievances, "Why did you come here?"

"Master Weng..." Rui'er hugged Xi Yuan tightly, and said softly, "Rui'er is sorry for Master Weng, for making him suffer, so Rui'er will take Master Weng home now, okay?"

"Okay." Xiyuan wiped away her tears, looked up at Rui'er, but met Hu Yeyi's smiling face.

Xi Yuan's scream frightened Liu Ya half to death, she threw herself in front of Xi Yuan's bed, and saw Xi Yuanyuan panting heavily with her eyes open, the bedding soaked in cold sweat.

"What's the matter, Lord Weng?" Liu Ya turned pale with shock, holding Xi Yuan's cold hand and rubbing it ceaselessly.

It took a long time for Xiyuan's soul to return to its place, and said in a barely audible voice: "I dreamed of Rui'er." After speaking, he struggled to sit up and called out, "Xiao Che..." The bird obediently flew over and landed on the On Xiyuan's shoulder, she lightly pecked Xiyuan's face with her own beak, Xiyuan smiled when she recalled the embrace in her dream.

Although it was a frightening dream, Xi Yuan was sweating profusely, miraculously shed her high fever, and seized the last moment before winter to regain her vitality.

"Rui'er, I dreamed about you last night." Xi Yuan was sitting on the table in sable fur and wrote a reply to Rui'er. Only at this moment, Liu Ya could see the fresh vitality on Xi Yuan's face, " I dreamed that you left me in the blizzard, and you ignored me no matter what I told you. But fortunately, you came to pick me up in the end." Xi Yuan had a rare joy on his face, "I was thinking, If you don't come, I will never talk to you again, are you afraid?" Xi Yuan put down the pen, dried the ink carefully, thought for a while, and picked out a small dark red flower from the vase on the table , carefully folded into the letter.Xiyuan tied the letter bag to Sparrowhawk's lap, picked up a plate full of nuts, and said fawningly, "Yinger, Yinger, it's been hard work for you to send the letter all year, thank you Xiyuan. Now you have been flying for a year, and you are familiar with the road, can you fly a little faster? Because I put a little flower with the same color as Ruier’s hair in the letter, if you fly slowly, the little flower will wither So please hurry up, eagle, I will give you lots and lots of nuts, can you hurry up?"

Sparrowhawk ignored Xiyuan's muttering to himself, quickly swallowed a few nuts, shook its bright feathers, and flew out of the open window, turning into an invisible black man in a short while. point.

"Eagle." Xi Yuan murmured to the night sky, "Please hurry up."

"My Lord." Liu Ya brought over a bowl of soup and medicine, "It's time to take medicine."

When Xiyuan took it, there was an unpleasant bitter taste straight into her nose. Xiyuan couldn't help retching twice, and asked with a frown, "What kind of medicine is this? It smells so bad."

"The medicine for invigorating the blood and dissipating it, Mr. Weng's phlegm, heat and wind and cold are still not cured, and he still needs to sweat a few more times."

"I've drank this medicine before, and it doesn't smell so bad." Xi Yuan resisted the nausea that kept turning up, "Will it be very bitter?"

"The medicinal materials here are different from those in the imperial capital, but they are all good and bitter." Liu Ya pointed out the window and coaxed, "My Lord will be cured only after drinking the medicine, and only then can he go out to ride a horse."

The matter of riding a horse made Xi Yuan look forward to it very much, she squeezed her nose and gulped down the medicine, gritted her teeth and endured it before spitting it out.

Liu Ya took the bowl away in satisfaction, and then thought that when the medicine took effect in the middle of the night, Xi Yuan would definitely sweat, so she had to prepare a clean underwear in advance.Liu Ya was thinking in her heart, she didn't pay attention and bumped into the person who came in.Before he could see who it was, he got kicked first.

"You don't have eyes?!" Hu Yeyi was full of anger, kicked Liu Ya over, and said angrily, "Come on, drag it down, and hit me!"

The entourage was ordered to ignore Liu Ya's chanting of "Forgive me, my son", and forcibly dragged Liu Ya aside. He picked up the whip and began to whip it facelessly. Liu Ya's chanting turned into a scream in an instant.

"Don't hit her!" Xi Yuan ran towards Liu Ya, but was stopped by Hu Yeyi who was halfway and hugged her.

"This slave is too stupid." Hu Yeyi coaxed softly with Xi Yuan in his arms, "I will discipline you well."

"Don't!" Seeing Liu Ya's way of dodging and pleading, Xi Yuan cried, "Don't hit me, please don't hit me!"

"You beg me?" Hu Yeyi became interested all of a sudden, looking at Xi Yuan's long-sick face with tears hanging down, it was really a delicate and delicate appearance, the strings in his heart were quickly plucked, and Xi Yuan Hugging her even tighter, she said teasingly, "If you beg me to favor you, I won't beat her."

"I..." Xiyuan looked at Hu Yei helplessly, then at Liu Ya lying on the ground, bit her own lip, and said in an extremely small voice, "I... I beg you ... pamper... pamper me."

"I didn't hear it." Hu Yei intensified with great interest, "Speak louder."

There was nowhere to hide, Liu Ya was curled up on the ground with her head in her arms, her hair and clothes were already messed up, Xi Yuan saw it, she made up her mind to throw away all her dignity, closed her eyes and shouted loudly: "I beg you to favor me!" I, I beg you, favor me!"

"Okay." Hu Yeyi waved to his followers to stop the whipping, but his eyes were glued to Xiyuan's face, he kissed her lightly, and said with a low smile, "The little beauty begged me, how could she not be satisfied?"

Hu Yeyi has never been so excited. Xiyuan, who has just recovered from a long illness, is weaker than before. I don’t know whether it is because of the medicine or because the illness is not recovering quickly. Unable to hold on, the whole person was paralyzed in Yei's arms.

"What's the matter, little beauty?" Hu Yeyi rubbed Xiyuan's back and asked, "Do you want more?"

Xi Yuan's consciousness was already blurred, she couldn't distinguish the joke in Yei's words at all, she just shook her head in vain and murmured "no".Unexpectedly, this gesture irritated Hu Yei even more, and Hu Yei played with Xi Yuan over and over again for a long time before leaving in satisfaction.

Xi Yuan was lying on the bed, without even the strength to move her arms and legs, feeling in a daze that someone was scrubbing her body, she opened her lips with great effort, and called out: "Liu Ya..."

"What is Mrs. Weng?" Liu Ya stopped the movements of her hands, and leaned in front of Xi Yuan's face.

"Liu Ya..." Xi Yuan looked at the bruises and bloodstains on Liu Ya's face, raised a hand with difficulty, caressed Liu Ya's face, and asked distressedly, "Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." Liu Ya held Xi Yuan's hand in her own, and smiled at her, "Liu Ya's clothes are thick, so I didn't get hurt a few times." But Xi Yuan was still sobbing When she got up, Liu Ya saw this, gently wiped her tears, and coaxed, "It's okay, Lord Weng, Liu Ya is fine."

Xi Yuan sobbed, and suddenly grabbed Liu Ya's hand tightly, frowning tightly, and said in pain: "I hurt."

"What's wrong, Lord Weng?" Liu Ya panicked all of a sudden, and asked nervously, "Where is the pain, Lord Weng?"

Xiyuan's lips turned pale, and she said tremblingly, "My stomach hurts."

Liu Ya was shocked when she heard the words, and opened the brocade quilt, and the dark red blood was continuously flowing from Xi Yuan's chest.

"What... what's wrong with this?" Liu Ya yelled helplessly, "Come on! Come on!"

After calling several times, an elderly maid stumbled in, took a look at Xi Yuan's appearance, and was shocked: "Master, this is...is this a miscarriage?"

"What?!" Liu Ya couldn't believe it, and asked crying, "Then what should I do?"

"You guard the old man." The old maid said as she ran out, "I'll call the medical officer."

Xi Yuan was lying on the bed, gasping for breath, the lost blood had already soaked through the brocade mattress under her body, along with the loss of Xi Yuan's consciousness, there was only one word left in her mind - "pain".

"Master!" Liu Ya shouted loudly to bring back Xi Yuan's consciousness, and said hastily, "Master, bear with me, the medical officer will come right away, Master, please don't sleep."

"En." Xi Yuan nodded weakly, but her consciousness lost again.

The bird seemed to sense that Xi Yuan was gradually losing consciousness, so it flew to Xi Yuan's pillow and pecked at Xi Yuan's face with its own beak.

"Xiao Che..." Xi Yuan's consciousness returned, and she actually smiled at Quiniao.

The bird pecked at Xiyuan vigorously, then flew to the window and kept flying up and down, but it never flew out of the window, as if it was bound by an invisible cage.

"What's the matter? You... Do you want... to go out?" Xi Yuan's voice continued intermittently, "Okay, you... go... go... go home."

As if the invisible cage would disappear under Xiyuan's order, the bird suddenly rushed out of the window and flew away quickly.

"It's so good..." Xi Yuan's consciousness drifted uncontrollably again, "Going home...it's...good..."

The old maid finally came running from a distance with the medical officer, but bumped into a chirping bird head-on.The bird followed the medical officer while pecking at his head, as if urging him to hurry up, but Liu Ya's heart-piercing wailing came from the room first.

Ruier: Did you know?

Huyeyi: Am I going too far?

Ruier: Just a little bit?

Huyeyi: Then how can I remedy it?

Ruier: Just wait until you die.
