The general went out again at night

The dark clouds were blown away by the wind, revealing a bright moon.The moon hangs high, and the moonlight is shining brightly, spilling into the house through the windows.Before falling into a coma, Liu Yan saw the appearance of the "person" in front of him by the moonlight.

"Tree... tree coffin man..." She recognized it. In the northern military camp, she had defeated one with eight soldiers.This terrifying half-human, half-demon thing actually appeared in the capital!

Liu Yan's eyes closed hopelessly, severe pain came from her limbs and bones, she tried her best to resist, but due to the disparity in strength, she couldn't hold on anymore.

"Kang Dang——" the door was kicked open, and the melodious flute sound came. The tree coffin man paused, and his grip on Liuyan's neck relaxed a little. Tise's eyes rolled, and his expression changed. Get confused.

Shen Anyi was wearing a thin long gown, with a knot tied at the waist in a loose way, obviously tied in haste in a hurry.Her long wet hair fell over her shoulders, and her feet were still dripping with water.

Holding the piccolo in her hand, she walked to the candlestick, and lit the candle neatly.

A candle lamp emits a faint light, which illuminates the room slightly, and the eyes can see things unobstructed.Shen Anyi's eyes fell on Liu Yan. At this time, Liu Yan's limbs were bound by long rattan, his feet were flying in the air, and a skinny hand was wrapped around his neck.

The owner of the hand was about to turn his head to look at him, and Shen Anyi looked at it.

In the darkness, the tree coffin has immense manpower and fierce moves, making the invincible feel cold all over.However, if you light up the candle lamp and look at it carefully, you will feel that it is too beautiful.The beauty is dressed in green tree clothes, the long skirt is on the ground, the green hair is like a waterfall, and a hundred flowers grow together.

The strength in the tree coffin man's hand has been completely loosened, only dragging on Liu Yan's neck, Shen Anyi put down the piccolo in his mouth, and coaxed: "Let go, let her go, you are looking for me, right? "

The tree coffin man's lips moved, and a "babbling" sound came out of his throat. Obviously, it couldn't organize sentences to speak.

However, it listened to Shen Anyi's words.The five bindings on Liu Yan's body were loosened at the same time, and she fell unconscious.

Shen Anyi played the piccolo again, stepped back a few steps, and the tree coffin man moved towards her.Shen Anyi saw the pain and entanglement on its face, she stepped back a few feet, and the tree coffin man followed a few feet away from the place where the flowing smoke fell to the ground.

Shen Anyi took out a pack of medicinal powder from his bosom, opened it extremely quickly, and sprinkled it on the body of the tree coffin man. After touching the medicinal powder, the enthusiastically blooming jacquards quickly wilted and withered away.

The tree coffin man held his head in his hands, closed his eyes and let out a painful roar, Shen Anyi picked up the sword that Liuyan had dropped, and swung the sword towards the tree coffin man's feet.

The tree coffin man suddenly opened his eyes, his expression became ferocious, he dexterously jumped to dodge the attack, the long vine rolled up the sword in Shen Anyi's hand, and threw it heavily outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, it flew out of the house at an extremely fast speed, landed in the small plum grove, and disappeared without a trace.

Shen Anyi didn't chase after it, and quickly ran to Liuyan's side, hugged her in his arms, and called out anxiously: "Liuyan, Liuyan."

Liu Yan fell into a coma, his limbs were cold, and there were glaring red marks on his neck, hands and ankles.Shen Anyi grabbed her wrist, felt the pulse, and his frown relaxed a little. Fortunately, he came in time...

She took the medicine box, dug out a pill from the inner layer, stuffed it into Liu Yan's mouth, gave him a mouthful of water, and let him swallow it.Holding Liu Yan in her arms, she listened to Liu Yan's breathing slowly returning to its proper rhythm, and her hanging heart gradually let go.

The room was in a mess, with many dead leaves and a few wilting flowers left on the ground.Shen Anyi carried Liu Yan to the bed, pulled the quilt over her body, then called the servants, and ordered: "Clean up this place quickly, and put everything in the room back to its original place."

"Yes."

"Also, what happened tonight, what you saw and heard, is all rotten in your stomach, no one is allowed to tell."

"Yes."

The subordinates are all calm people, obeying the orders of the Patriarch, and will not violate orders and cause troubles.They scattered in all directions, lit candle lamps, and put the tables and chairs back in place one by one.

Shen Anyi returned to the bed and put down the curtain to block the view from inside and outside. She untied the clothes on Liu Yan's body to check for other injuries.

After examining it carefully, Shen Anyi breathed a sigh of relief, except for the red marks and blood bruises everywhere, everything else can be ignored.The discomfort of falling down can be concealed by making up an excuse tomorrow.

She dug out the best medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, applied it on the wound, and rubbed it gently.In order to better exert the effect of the medicine, the wound had to be warmed by rubbing, Shen Anyi tossed and tossed for an hour before stopping.

The sound in the room became quieter, and the servants carried away the damaged tables and chairs, and replaced them with the same ones. At this time, it was almost finished.

Shen Anyi walked around, checked carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he waved his hands to let the people back down.

The door was closed, and the room was suddenly silent.With a solemn expression, Shen Anyi sat alone on the soft stool for a long time.Liu Yan must not let Liu Yan remember what happened tonight.

She got up, opened the dark box on the wooden cabinet, took out a small medicine bottle, poured out two pills the size of rice grains, and held it in the palm of her hand.All other things will be returned as they are.

After a while, there was the sound of grinding in the quiet room.Then, she poured the medicinal powder into warm water and swallowed it while feeding Liuyan.

I hope it can be concealed, looking at Liu Yan's sleeping face, Shen Anyi sighed secretly.She lifted off the quilt, lay on Liu Yan's side, and tucked the corner of the quilt for her.

The worried Shen Anyi seldom slept, and did not fall asleep until dawn.

It was three poles high in the sun, and it was broad daylight. Liu Yan moved her body, her head was swollen and her arms were very weak.

last night?

Last night, she seemed to be sitting on the bench waiting for Anyi, but somehow she fell asleep, and when she woke up, it was now.

Turning his head, Shen Anyi, who was lying on the side of the soft pillow, also woke up, and threw himself into Liu Yan's arms in a daze.

Liu Yan reached out to wrap her head, blushing while enjoying the intimacy.

"I was going to wait for you, but I fell asleep for some reason..." Liu Yan said embarrassingly: "I missed another chance to take the medicine, let's make it up next time."

Shen Anyi raised his head, met Shang Liuyan's eyes, and said in a very natural tone: "No, I applied medicine for you yesterday, while you were asleep."

"Really?" Liu Yan's eyes widened.

"Of course, the medicine to be given yesterday is quite special. It is made from fresh herbs and ground, and it is not stored for a long time. I spent a lot of time making it. If I don't use it, wouldn't it be a waste? So I took advantage of the darkness of the moon Feng Gao, stripped your clothes..." Shen Anyi stopped talking, with a complacent smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.

Liu Yan's little face covered under the quilt was flushed, and she blamed herself for not having the willpower, so she fell asleep after waiting for an hour, how bad it was.

Shen Anyi looked at Liu Yan's downcast eyes, and said seriously: "However, the ointment yesterday is good for scars, and some discomforts in the body, such as soreness and weakness in the limbs, and other places. It will disappear after a few days. It's not a problem. .”

"Okay, I see. I've always believed in you about medical skills." Liu Yan hugged Shen Anyi tightly, resting her chin on her soft hair.

Shen Anyihuan exerted some force on Liu Yan's body, his eyes showed reluctance, and his tone was still natural as usual: "This newly made ointment is very effective, and it will promote the regeneration of the wounded skin after it has been applied. You need to allow time for the skin to grow after the first dose, so you don’t have to take another dose every two days. The next dose should be in the next year.”

"Okay, when you need to take the medicine, you send someone to the general's mansion to inform me, and I will definitely go to the appointment on time in the future."

The sincerity in Liu Yan's tone made Shen Anyi's eyes feel hot. She suppressed the tears and said slowly: "There is nothing to do in the morning, let's lie down for a while. I am really tired these few days."

Liu Yan caressed her back distressedly, and said in a warm voice, "Okay."

***

Early in the morning on the 25th, before dawn, Xia Qingshu got up to practice his sword.At Chenshi, someone came to call her to have breakfast, and she stopped.

After eating breakfast, it was very leisurely, so Xia Qingshu discussed with Liu Qi about the food and drinks for New Year's Eve in the mansion.On the day when the class teacher returned to court, His Majesty the Emperor gave many rewards, and it would be better to have fun in time than to store ashes in the treasury.Xia Qingshu decided to make a good deal on New Year's Eve, and then distribute the remaining silver taels to the guards and servants in the mansion.

The dishes, fruits, and silver for the rewards should be calculated in advance, so as not to make mistakes on New Year's Eve and spoil the harmonious atmosphere.

Halfway through the discussion between the two, the guard hurriedly came to report: "General, a father-in-law from the palace has come outside the door, asking you to clean up and get ready to receive the order."

When the imperial decree arrives, it must be treated with care, and it must not be sloppy.Xia Qingshu hurriedly put down what she was doing, and went back to her room to change into her official uniform.

After half a stick of incense, in the hall of the General's Mansion, Deng Liju hadn't yet held the imperial edict in his hand, and read aloud: "Following the heavens, the emperor's decree said: The empress dowager is virtuous and benevolent, and on the third day at the end of each year, she brings the women in the palace to Fu'an Temple to fast Pray for blessings, I am very happy, but the palace is messy and the safety is a concern, I have specially appointed Fuyuan General Xia Qingshu as the commander of the guard right, to protect the Empress Dowager and all the royal relatives to go back and forth safely, I respect you!"

"Sir, Xia Qingshu accepts the decree!" Kowtowing heavily, Xia Qingshu raised her arms and respectfully accepted the decree.

"Thank you, General Xia." Deng Li said.

"Eunuch Deng is very serious. It is the blessing of Qingshu III to have the honor of guarding the Empress Dowager and all the royal relatives."

"It is the blessing of the Great Yan that the general fulfills his duties. Your Royal Highness, the Empress Dowager and the Eldest Princess, are under your protection. Your Majesty can finally feel at ease. If there is nothing else, this old servant will return to the palace."

"Father-in-law, walk slowly."

Xia Qingshu personally sent Deng Li out of the mansion, watched the car drive away, and when he returned, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

In terms of official business, she has very little contact with His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, and if she did, it would be difficult to deal with.Such a trip has never happened before, she is protected by the emperor's order, and she is outside the palace, so naturally she can't have too much conflict with His Highness.

I don't know what will happen during this trip?Even though he didn't know the good or the bad, Xia Qingshu was still looking forward to it.
