"General, you are back. If you don't come back, this old slave will go to the barracks to look for you."

Liang Jian came back from patrolling the camp outside the city. As soon as he got off his horse at the door of the house, the housekeeper hurriedly greeted him, his old face full of anxiety.He is an old man who has been taking care of him since Liang Jian entered Jiangcheng. Now that Xu Liangchuan is enthroned as emperor, there are many people in the palace who take care of him.Liang Jian was nostalgic and asked the housekeeper to come over and place him in the mansion.

The butler is old and has limited legs, so he usually manages the affairs of the inner courtyard at most.Fortunately, even if Liang Jian holds the military power, and the official worships first-rank, it is not luxurious. There is nothing to take care of in the mansion, and the housekeeper can manage it alone.

Liang Jian asked the servant to lead the horse down, walked quickly to the butler, and said in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

The butler's back was slightly bent, his steps were faltering, and his ears were not working well.When Liang Jian asked him, although he looked anxious, he had to respond in action before he replied slowly: "The lord had a high fever last night, and this old slave dared not invite someone to come for treatment rashly, so I had to follow the instructions you left. Fang Zi gave him some medicine, but the medicine had little effect, and that adult is still unconscious."

While the butler was speaking, both he and Liang Jian were walking towards the inner courtyard, and when the butler finished speaking, they both entered the inner courtyard.

This mansion was the private residence of a former high official, and Liang Jian saw that it was well built, so he used it as his own mansion.This inner courtyard was originally the place where the high officials raised their wives. There are countless exotic flowers and plants, and the pavilions and artificial hills are exquisite.Liang Jian didn't have high requirements for the scenery, but felt that this quiet place was suitable for someone to recuperate.

After listening to the butler's report, Liang Jian's heart tightened, and she couldn't help but quicken her pace.He couldn't blame the housekeeper for not reporting it, and he couldn't blame the housekeeper for not inviting a doctor. It was because the status of this patient was so special that the housekeeper didn't dare to act without his orders.

It's just that he was fine before he left, so why did his condition suddenly recur.

Abandoning the butler and walking slowly behind, Liang Jian walked into the east wing in three steps and two steps at a time.It was morning now, and it was only a day and a night since Liang Jian left. The flowers in the house that he folded before he left were still well kept in the vase, blooming brilliantly.The sunlight shines into the room, drives away the darkness, and spreads a fine layer of light on the ground.

The face of the person lying on the bed was pale, his once rosy lips were chapped due to lack of water, he was restless in his sleep, his brows were tightly furrowed.Liang Jian sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch his forehead, it was scalding hot.

"water……"

The sleeping person babbled, Liang Jian hurriedly took the water on the table beside him, dipped a little with a spoon and fed it to the person on the bed.

"Zhenghan, can you hear me?" Liang Jian put down the porcelain bowl, saw Mu Zhenghan's eyelashes, thought he was awake, and asked nervously, "You don't feel well?"

Mu Zhenghan's eyes were blurred, and even Liang Jian's voice was hazy, like looking at flowers in the fog, or looking at the moon in the water, he couldn't hear clearly, and the distance was like a hallucination.He turned his head with great effort, but he still couldn't see Liang Jian's appearance clearly, and the feeling of powerlessness all over his body was terrible.He felt like he was in an ice cellar, the chill penetrated into his bones, and his whole body was cold.He couldn't tell where he felt uncomfortable, but he felt pain in every part of his body.

Seeing that Mu Zhenghan didn't answer for a long time, Liang Jian seemed to be falling asleep again, and felt a little flustered.He went out and asked the housekeeper to change a prescription to take the medicine, went to the wine cellar to bring a jar of wine, and wiped Mu Zhenghan's body with a cloth towel.The wine is ordinary rice wine, and the heat dissipation can only be stabilized for a while.

Mu Zhenghan's high fever subsided a bit, and Liang Jian checked the wounds all over his body, but found no wound infection.Most of the wounds on his body are healing, and a small part is still oozing blood occasionally because of the severity of the injuries.Liang Jian carefully avoided those injuries, hugged him in his arms, and wrapped him in a quilt.

"General, here comes the medicine."

Because of Mu Zhenghan's condition, he could not call a doctor at any time, so Liang Jian simply prepared all kinds of medicinal materials needed in the mansion.The butler had worked as an apprentice in a pharmacy in his early years, so he knew the medicinal ingredients in the prescription, and quickly prepared the medicine and brought it to him.

Liang Jian took the medicine and fed it to Mu Zhenghan spoonful by spoonful.

Because of the high fever and blurred consciousness, it was difficult for Mu Zhenghan to cooperate with Liang Jian to drink the medicine.Basically, Liang Jian vomited as much as he fed.

"General, this won't work, Mr. Mu didn't swallow it at all." The housekeeper watched anxiously from the sidelines, Mu Zhenghan had a high fever all night, if the fever doesn't subside, he might die.

Of course Liang Jian knew this was the reason, and rationally told him that he should go to the doctor now, but he couldn't move at all.His body was out of his control at all. He wanted to stand up and take Mu Zhenghan out of the house, but he couldn't lift his hands and feet. He felt that there was a heavy stone on his body, and he couldn't move.

At some point, there was a heavy fog around, the housekeeper beside him disappeared, and the sunlight in the room was blocked by the fog.Liang Jian couldn't see Mu Zhenghan's face clearly, but could only feel Mu Zhenghan dying slowly in his arms.Panic occupied Liang Jian's heart. He felt pain and despair. He wanted to shout, but his throat seemed to be cursed, and he couldn't utter a sound.

"Zhenghan, Mu Zhenghan." Liang Jian roared hysterically in his heart, calling Mu Zhenghan's name over and over again.

Suddenly, Liang Jian felt that he broke through the thick fog and fell from a high altitude, and the sense of weightlessness brought him back to reality.

"Uh……"

Liang Jian woke up from his sleep. He didn't know when he fell asleep lying on the side of the bed, probably because he was sleeping in the wrong position and was haunted by a nightmare, so he hugged Mu Zhenghan's body in his dream.Liang simply got up, moved his numb arm, and rubbed the center of his brow, feeling a little bad.

Except that the person is right, this nightmare is all nonsense.In the previous life, Mu Zhenghan was indeed seriously injured, and he stayed in the mansion for a long time to recuperate. There were several dangerous situations, but he survived without any danger.It's just that Mu Zhenghan spent most of his time recuperating in bed because of his serious injury. When the weather was fine, Liang Jian would take him to the yard to bask in the sun.

Those days were very special for both of them.There was no war, no tit-for-tat confrontation, and the two of them managed to maintain the stability of this world in a strange way under the chaotic situation.

Mu Zhenghan's death Liang Jian didn't want to experience it again, even in a dream, it was unbearable for him, and it was unpleasant in every way.But fortunately it was only in a dream, in reality he regained this person.This time, no one can take it away.

The situation of Mei Zhenghan on the bed has stabilized, and her complexion has returned to normal.It was probably because Liang Jian pressed the quilt when he fell asleep. He felt cold and couldn't move it. Now he was lying on his side with the quilt only covering his shoulders.

Liang Jian had a nightmare and was sleepless at the moment. He got up and covered Mei Zhenghan with a quilt, and was about to go out to ask the waiter for a pot of wine.

In the middle of the night, the inn was very quiet, and the waiter who was watching the night was sleeping in the dark behind the counter.Liang Jian knocked on the wooden cabinet twice, the sound was loud and loud in the silent night, and the waiter in the shop did not respond at all.It's not kind to disturb people's dreams in the middle of the night, Liang Jian stood at the counter for a while, and didn't continue to wake up the waiter.

Probably God thinks it's not suitable for him to drink away his worries at this time.

Liang Jian smiled, turned and went upstairs.

In the corridor, Jiang Shengxue, who was also unable to sleep, was wearing a plain skirt and sitting on the bench on the guardrail on the second floor. When she saw Liang Jian coming up, she turned around in surprise.She couldn't see the scene downstairs from her position. She didn't know that Liang Jian had just gone downstairs, and thought he had just come back from outside.

Liang Jian was also a little surprised when she saw her, and asked, "Why didn't you sleep?"

Jiang Shengxue shook his head lightly: "I can't sleep, so come out and sit for a while. You just came back from outside?"

"No, I went downstairs to find the waiter to get some wine, but he and Duke Zhou were having a good time playing chess and ignored me." Liang Jian shrugged helplessly, looking a little regretful.

Jiang Shengxue smiled, she was just bored in the room alone, unable to fall asleep because of tossing and turning, so she came out to get some air, she didn't expect to meet Liang Jian.She and Liang Jian looked at each other silently, the two of them were silent for a while in the corridor, neither of them spoke, the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

"Um...can I talk to you?" Jiang Shengxue squeezed her sleeves, her fingers touched the icy iron wristband, and she was shocked by the coolness.The events of the day kept circling in her mind, and she always had a question in her heart, and she wanted to find an answer.

It was rare for Jiang Shengxue to speak first, Liang Jian nodded, walked up to Jiang Shengxue and sat down, motioning her to chat casually.

Jiang Shengxue asked: "How much do you know about Gu and insect people?"

"I've done some research, but I don't know much about it." Liang Jian answered truthfully. He had been active in Jiangnan and Gandong in his previous life. If it wasn't for the heavy losses on the battlefield in the west of Yunnan, he couldn't win the battle with Gu masters, and he wouldn't be able to wield it. The army is here.He learned all about Gu during the march.I didn't know anything about this thing before, and my impression was that it was a terrible thing.

In this life, in order to avoid repeating the same mistakes, he was wary of Gu, but he had just arrived in western Yunnan after all, so he really didn't know much.

Jiang Shengxue was not surprised by this answer, she stared at Mei Zhenghan's resting room, thought for a moment before saying: "Nine out of ten Gu masters who poisoned my brother were not from Qiutong Kingdom, because among the Gu master sects in western Yunnan , Insect people are firmly not allowed to exist. If it is found that a Gu master is cultivating insect people, the faction of the Gu masters will take action to take them down. People become puppets. Although our Western Yunnan faction does not allow it, it is very popular in Fujian."

Min country is a small country on the border of Qiutong country that is good at raising Gu. In the previous life, the soldiers of Qiutong country were defeated by Gu skills. Most of the forwards were insects. One after another.Qiu Tongguo didn't know how many soldiers were exhausted by the worms, and they often fell into the way of the worms without paying attention.

Liang Jian felt a great headache about this in her previous life, and had no choice but to ask the Gu masters below to fight poison with poison.If he remembered correctly, this incident later became the evidence for Xu Liangchuan to convict him, saying that he had a violent temperament and a bloodthirsty nature.
