Minister Gu Ming can't take care of himself

Xu Guanchen put his hands on the ground, stood up reluctantly, his eyes darkened for a while, before taking two steps, he fell to the ground again.

The person in front of him stood far away, yet seemed to be standing very close. He tried to reach out to reach the person, but he couldn't even touch the corner of his clothes.

He thought it was a dream or an illusion, and that person was a ghost or a ghost, that's why his hand passed under the hem of that person's clothes.

But Xiao Qi wrapped his arms around his waist, picked him up from the ground, and asked coldly: "Who is he?"

Xu Guanchen was like a small fish caught ashore, he couldn't even breathe, his eyes were covered with tears, but he still reached out to touch the man.

Xiao Qi asked him again: "Who is he?"

Xu Guanchen cried out of breath, as if he didn't hear him.It was only when Xiao Qi asked him the third time that he shouted intermittently: "Brother...Brother..."

The person standing opposite him hadn't changed much in the past ten years, his brows and eyes were still sharp, his thin lips were slightly pursed, but he didn't have the youthful spirit of that year.

Xu Guanchen originally thought that he was too young at that time to remember his elder brother Xu Wen's appearance. It was not until his elder brother reappeared in front of him that he realized that he hadn't forgotten.

Xiao Qi brought him in front of Xu Wen, grabbed his hand, and asked him to touch Xu Wen's face.

And Xu Wen stood still with his hands behind his back, without any expression on his face, and he didn't even turn his eyes, staring at him, as if staring at someone he had never seen before.

Xu Guanchen still didn't know whether he was dreaming or waking up, his mind was in a mess, and he didn't know whether the person in front of him was real or not.

Xiao Qi withdrew his hand and asked in a low voice: "I'm asking you now, where is the alchemy book in the Duke's Mansion? Can you draw the things there?"

Half an hour passed.

The blood stained the corners of his lips red, Xu Guanchen laughed twice, his voice was too soft to hear: "I saw my brother, wait a little longer... I can see my father, mother and grandpa."

Xiao Qi regained his composure, looked down and saw that he had passed out, then carried him to the couch, turned around and called Xiao Daotong: "Go, tell them to bring the old Taoist priest from the west courtyard."

Yuqingzi also had iron chains on his hands and feet, and was escorted in by two men.

Xiao Qi was impatient, standing by the couch, looking at Xu Guanchen, he didn't know what he was thinking.After Yuqingzi came in, he waved his hands and told the two people to retreat, and said to Xiaodaotong: "Go get a basin of water to wash Guanchen's face."

Xiao Daotong responded and stepped back, but Yuqingzi stared at Xu Wen who had stood there from beginning to end.

He took two steps back, rubbed his eyes, couldn't believe it, and called out tentatively, "Master Xu?"

Xu Wen didn't answer him, and before Yu Qingzi could call him again, Xiao Qi said coldly: "He doesn't understand. Come and see Xu Guanchen."

Xiao Daotong wandered in with a copper basin in his hands, put it on the side of the couch, rolled up his sleeves, washed the towel, and then lay down on the side of the couch to wipe Xu Guanchen's face.

He washed the half-worn white towel very clean, and Xu Guanchen's lips turned red just by wiping it.

Xiao Daotong carefully wiped off the blood on the corners of his lips, and Yu Qingzi frowned to check his pulse, with a bad complexion.

After a long time, Yu Qingzi finally withdrew his hand and covered Xu Guanchen's hand with a quilt. Xiao Daotong couldn't bear his temper and asked him: "Old Taoist..."

Yu Qingzi pursed her lips, held her sleeves tightly with her hands.Finally, when the hand and foot shackles rang, Xiao Qi knelt down, still clutching his sleeves: "I beg you, my old Taoist priest, I beg you. He took this medicine for you at the beginning. You and Guanchen, after all, are you a king and a minister?" , you can't look at him..."

"You persuade him, let him draw the things in the alchemy book for me, and I will give him the antidote." Xiao Qi said, "In this way, we used to be monarchs and ministers, and we will be monarchs and ministers in the future."

Xu Guanchen lay flat on the couch with his eyes closed tightly, seemingly unconscious.The black hair was scattered on the pillow, and his face was pale and lifeless.

Xiao Qi glanced at him, and then said to Yu Qingzi: "The Taoist priest is good at medicine, he prescribed a prescription to help him hang his life, when will I give it to me, when will I give him the antidote."

He raised his chin towards Xiaodaotong: "Go, take the old Taoist down to prescribe the medicine."

Yu Qingzi refused to move, Xiao Qi remained unmoved, and refused to speak any more, just looked at him like this.

After a stalemate for a while, Yuqingzi turned to look at Xu Wen again.

Xu Wen took off his mask and stood opposite him all the time, Yu Qingzi still didn't quite believe it, and asked in a daze: "Master Xu, he..."

Xiao Qi remained silent, Yu Qingzi got up, took Xu Wen's hand, and took his pulse.Xu Wen didn't do anything else, he let him go like a wooden man.

Yu Qingzi felt his pulse and reached out to look into his eyes, but was separated by Xu Wen's other hand.

Yuqingzi had a pulse diagnosis for Feiyang, who was also a martial puppet, but Xu Wen's pulse was clearly different from Feiyang's.

Is it possible...

"You..." Yu Qingzi suddenly looked up at him, Xu Wen was expressionless, so he turned his head to look at Xiao Qi again, "He..."

"The martial puppet of Xiling." Xiao Qi stepped forward slowly, patted Xu Wen's shoulder, took off the plum-blossom jackal mask in his hand, and put it on Xu Wen's face, "At that time, you mixed in the crowd to watch Yuan Ce, see if I've come, haven't you seen his mask?"

After he said that, Yu Qingzi remembered.

At that time, the last antidote was in Xiao Qi's hands, and when Xu Guanchen's illness was approaching, he was worried, afraid that Xiao Qi would not come.Later, when Yuan Ce came, he mixed in the crowd, wanting to see if Xiao Qi had come.

At that time, Yuan Ce was accompanied by two people.One is Zhiwei, a literati, Xiao Qi wearing a human skin mask; the other is Xu Wen, a guard wearing a plum blossom jackal mask.

How ridiculous, a Xiling prince is accompanied by two Liang people.

"Prince Yuan San prefers Xu Wen's martial arts, so he spared his life. Over the years, Xu Wen has had the blood of Yuan Ce's political opponents on his hands." Xiao Qi said again, "Yuan Ce lent him to me, I don’t know when I’m going to go back. Whenever Guan Chen gives me what I want, when I will ask Yuan Ce to bring someone over to him.”

Yu Qingzi glared angrily and said, "You..."

"The old Daoist's life is also in my hands." Xiao Qi sneered, "It's just a picture that can exchange Guanchen for a brother, a master and half an antidote. I'm good enough for him."

Xiao Qi grabbed the iron chain on his wrist: "Let's go, let's write a prescription."

Yu Qingzi staggered two steps, said in a slightly soft tone, "That kid can't take care of him well, can you... leave Mr. Xu with him for a while?"

Xiao Qi turned his head and raised his eyebrows: "Huh?"

"Anyway, Mr. Xu can't understand other people's words right now, so it's better to stay and watch him. Every time he is sick, he calls brother, so you can give him brother for a while?"

Xiao Qi thought for a while, then turned to Xiao Daotong and said: "Xiao Wu, you and this...brother, stay together for a while and feed the one on the couch some water."

Xiao Daotong respectfully agreed, and after the two of them went out, he trotted back, poured a cup of warm water, dipped some of it with his finger, and wiped it on the corner of his lips.

After a while, Xiao Daotong turned his head inadvertently, saw Xu Wen who was still standing motionless, put down his teacup, and ran towards him.

Xiao Daotong stood in front of Xu Wen, looked up at him, and then looked back at Xu Guanchen.After scratching my head, I don't think these two people look like brothers, they obviously don't look alike at all.

Thinking about it, the old Taoist said just now that this man is Xu Guanchen's elder brother, and Xu Guanchen always called him when he was sick.When Xiao Qi left, he asked himself to feed Xu Guanchen some water with him.

Xiao Daotong took his hand: "Come here."

Xiao Daotong pushed him down in front of the couch, and helped him wash his hands with a towel and hot water.

When the sound of water was ringing, Xu Guanchen murmured in his dream his elder brother and mother, and sometimes called three-character names, which was calling Xiao Yuzhi.

Xiao Daotong wiped Xu Wen's hands clean, and poured another cup of tea.

Xu Wen sat in front of the couch, looked at the dying Xu Guanchen, his expression moved slightly, his Adam's apple moved up and down, as if he was a little choked, and he sighed softly, almost inaudibly.

When Xiao Daotong turned around, he returned to his original appearance.

Xiao Daotong handed the teacup to him, asking him to give Xu Guanchen some water to drink.

Xu Wen didn't move, the two of them stalemate for a while, Xiao Daotong sighed, grabbed his hand, and stuffed the teacup into his hand.

Just hinted like that, Wu Puppet shouldn't understand, but he still doesn't understand.

"Are you his brother?" Xiao Daotong sighed, grabbed his hand, then grabbed Xu Guanchen's hand from the quilt, and put his two hands together.

Just when his fingertips touched his fingertips, there was a bang on the stone door behind him, and Xiao Qi came back.

Xiao Qi handed the prescription to Xiao Daotong: "Go to decoct the medicine."

At that time Xu Wen had withdrawn his hand calmly, sitting in front of the couch like a wooden man, not moving.In fact, he was looking at Xu Guanchen. When he left, Xu Guanchen was just a ten-year-old boy who followed behind him with short arms and legs, calling him brother.

When Xiao Qi stepped forward, Xu Wen looked away.

At that time Xu Guanchen was still calling his brother, Xiao Qi looked at him, then at Xu Wen, seeing Xu Wen sitting motionless in front of the couch, he didn't react at all.

Xiao Qi was distracted for a moment, lifted a corner of the quilt on the couch, and sat down at the end of the couch.

After an hour, the Xiaodao boy came in with the decocted medicine.

Xiao Qi was unwilling to do anything, so he ordered Xu Wen: "Feed him medicine."

Xiao Daotong was holding the medicine bowl, Xu Wen acted as if he was doing what he was told, put his hands on Xu Guanchen's shoulders, helped him up, scooped up a small spoonful of decoction, pinched his chin, and gave him a mouthful.

Xiao Qi rubbed the center of his brows, turned his eyes away: "You stay and watch him, Xiao Wu, you go out."

Xiao Daotong glanced at Xu Guanchen again, knowing that Xu Wen would not listen to him, but he still told him: "You have to take good care of my uncle."

After Xiao Daotong went out, Xiao Qi also went out holding hands.

Xiao Qi was not afraid that Xu Guanchen would run away, so he didn't send anyone to watch him, at this time there were only two of them left in the quiet room, after Xu Wen fed him the medicine, he stuffed him back under the quilt and let him sleep.

Xu Wen quickly rubbed his head, Xu Guanchen was still cold, he unconsciously raised his hand, not knowing whether to push his hand away or grab it.

Xu Guanchen said with tears in his voice, "Brother is gone."

Xu Wen sighed distressedly.

Only Xu Guanchen whispered again: "I want... I want Xiao Yuzhi."

Xu Wen was taken aback for a moment, but didn't show it on his face.He had spent all these years by Yuan Ce's side, but he didn't know anything about Jinling's personnel affairs. Who was this Xiao Yuzhi?
