Chapter 13: Hanging Life

The carriage traveled for about six or seven days and finally arrived in the capital, and a large number of servants in the suburbs had already come to greet him, Huai Wenhan got out of the car and shouted to a young man led by a little choked, "Third brother." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"It's good that you're back, your father and mother are waiting for you at the house." The man's voice was also a little choked, and he held Huai Wenhan's shoulders with both hands for a long time and never let go.

"Hello, Third Young Master." Jin Yan stepped forward and made a gesture obediently, Huai Wenyuan was a little excited and said, "This is Jin Yan, they have grown so big, I don't think I have my waist height at the beginning, and it is very hard to go all the way outside, see that you and Wen Han have lost a lot of weight." ”

"Third Young Master Xie cares, I have grown up, and it is not hard for Gongzi to take care of me." Jin Yan grabbed the back of his head and smirked.

"Don't blow the cold wind outside, get in the car, let's go back to the house." Huai Wenyuan said with red eyes.

Huai Wenhan looked at the two four-wheeled carriages with Shu brocade curtains and asked, "Brother, there is another girl in my carriage, can you follow you into the city?" ”

"Oh? I should be fine with talking to the gatekeeper. Then he asked in a low voice with a dull face, "Why did you bring back a girl?" ”

"Hey, that's a long story, let's get in the car and talk again." The two got into the same carriage as they spoke, and the one carrying Zhu Yifei followed closely behind the two carriages.

There was some trouble at the city gate, but when they heard that it was a girl, the soldiers were not easy to check carefully, so they only showed the clan waist card.

It turns out that most of the capital is the residence of the big clans, and it is in the era of war, each clan child needs to wear the surname waist card when he goes out, if there is no waist card, he is not allowed to enter and exit, and the ordinary people of the non-clan need to go to the yamen to issue relevant certificates to obtain the right to free passage, Zhu Yifei, a guest in the wilderness, obviously has neither a token nor a certificate, and when the two sides are deadlocked, the guard general Qi Huan happened to pass by, he has close contacts with the Huai family, and the relationship is not bad, and when he saw the convoy stuck at the city gate, he immediately stepped forward to ask.

As soon as Huai Wenyuan saw that it was him, he shouted happily, "Brother Qi, what a coincidence. ”

Qi Huan was also particularly happy: "Is this Brother Wenhan back?" How? What happened? ”

Huai Wenhan smiled after seeing the salute, "I haven't seen Brother Qi for a long time, but I didn't expect to recognize me." ”

"No one in the capital knows you Huai Caizi, this graceful bearing, it's hard to know it." Then he scolded the soldiers guarding the door, "The two sons of the Huai family, why don't you let them go, who gave you the guts?" There are dog things that don't know Tarzan with eyes. ”

Seeing this, the soldier hurriedly apologized, waved his hand tremblingly and opened a road, the convoy entered the city, and after the three of them rode on the horse and said something, Qi Huan said to the two, "You are returning today, there are still many things to deal with, I won't bother, I will worship the post another day, I will be the east, we will gather in the orange building, and we will see you when the time comes." ”

"Brother Qi's hospitality is naturally disrespectful." Huai Wenhan replied with a smile.

The three men said goodbye to each other, and the two brothers rounded the wide streets to a magnificent vermilion lacquer gate, on which hung a white spiritual tent, and two rows of white lanterns swayed in the breeze.

As soon as the gatekeeper saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, opened the door, and even the little maid rushed all the way and shouted, "The little master is back, the little master is back." ”

At this time it was noon, the weather was hot, the courtyard was empty and silent, the maid and the woman vied with each other to preach, ran to tell each other, the two brothers got off the horse and just passed through the small arch of the hanging flower carving fence, they saw a large group of maids and women running on the stone bridge not far away, a middle-aged woman led by a middle-aged woman has already lost the dignified beauty of the past, while running with her skirt and crying "My son, ........" almost fell down in a hurry, fortunately the maid woman hurriedly held on.

"Watch out, Mother." Huai Wenhan hurriedly ran to the woman with tears in his eyes, knelt down on his knees, and kowtowed three times: "The child is not filial, which makes the mother worried." ”

"Silly boy, it's cold on the ground, get up quickly." The woman wiped her tears while tugging at Huai Wenhan's arm.

Jin Yan next to him hurriedly helped pick him up, and the mother and son hugged and cried for a while before going to the inner courtyard under the persuasion of the maid.

Huaifu is a big courtyard with seven in and seven out, on weekdays, the ladies and ladies are carried by a small sedan chair, only the man is not allowed to ride a horse in the sedan chair in the house, so as not to be pampered, this is also a well-known family law in Huaifu, the servant saw that the lady held Huai Wenhan's hand and did not let go, and did not dare to interrupt, can only carry the sedan chair and follow the muffled voice, the maid and the lady are very happy to see the lady and the little master talking, so she also went.

"You see, when you leave, you think badly of your mother, and there are very few family letters for the New Year's holidays, so wait for your father to scold you for a while." Huai Wenyuan interjected with a wicked smile.

"What kind of bad words do you say, go to the side, your brother finally came back, and I didn't have to drive him away again, I only ask." Madame glanced at him and said.

"Yes, yes, your brother is your own son, and the three of us brothers were picked up by you from the side of the road." Huai Wenyuan joked with a smile.

"You bastard, what nonsense are you talking about, watch me beat you to death." The middle-aged lady said and pretended to wave a handkerchief, and Huai Wenyuan also cooperated and dodged twice, and said with a smile, "Okay, mother, don't be angry, you just got well from your illness, get on the sedan chair, Wenhan and I will talk to you." ”

He reminded the middle-aged woman that she was really tired, so she sat in a small sedan chair, the sedan chair was pressed very low, and Wen Han and Wen Yuan talked with each other all the way, which made the woman cheerful, and her originally slightly pale complexion was much better.

After passing the small door and entering the fifth courtyard, Fang came to the court, entered the room, and saw a middle-aged man sitting on it, and the two brothers saluted, especially Huai Wenhan knelt down again and kowtowed three times, Fang said, "The child is not filial, and he is late to come back." ”

The middle-aged man nodded with a grim face, sighed and said, "Go see your grandmother." ”

Came to the mourning hall in the back house, Huai Wenhan cried loudly several times until late at night, and the middle-aged woman accompanied him and a few concubines and maids were also crying, seeing that it was getting late, he comforted with tears in his eyes, "Young master, you haven't eaten much all the way, you should not be too sad, so as not to hurt your body." ”

He tugged Huai Wenhan's clothes and suddenly shuddered from a cold aura, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and shouted in horror: "Young Master." The people around him, who were still crying bitterly, were stopped by this terrible sound.

With a pop, Huai Wenhan's body fell next to the brazier, his face was blue and black, his eyes were sunken, his ink-colored hair instantly turned gray, and ten cold fingers stretched straight out, looking like a dead wood, a dying person.

The surroundings were in chaos, and the middle-aged woman lay on Huai Wenhan and cried, "My son, what's wrong with you, my son...... '

"It's not good, the old lady has appeared, and she wants to take the little master away." I don't know which mother-in-law shouted loudly, this time it exploded, running, walking, the scene was chaotic, and Huai Wenyuan, who rushed to the scene, roared angrily, "Shut up for me." A woman slapped two mouths, and the surroundings quieted down.

Huai Jizong, who came later, looked anxious, and ordered the maid to help his wife up, and then ordered the doctor to be invited, and Lin Lin was always busy for a while before settling down.

This time, they all gathered in the bedroom of Huai Wenhan in the west wing, and everyone inside and outside stayed in one place, waiting for the doctor's diagnosis.

The doctor who looked at it shook his head and wiped his sweat and said, "Ling Gongzi's pulse is flickering and empty, sinking into the bones, his body is cold and stiff, and he is already dizzy, so let's prepare for the future." ”

"How is this possible, my son........" The middle-aged woman fainted with a loud cry, and the maids hurriedly put her on the couch, and only woke up after a period of confusion.

"Carry Madame back to the bedroom, you don't have a lot of mouths." Huai Ji Zongdao.

"How is this possible? I personally picked him up at noon and took him back to the mansion, and he was fine at that time, could it be that he was sad and overly sluggish? Huai Wenyuan said with a face full of disbelief.

The doctor shook his head and shirked, "The old man really can't do anything, if you ask the imperial doctor in the palace to come over for diagnosis and treatment, maybe it will get better." ”

Sent the doctor away, Huai Jizong did not stop preparing to enter the palace, only Huai Wenyuan was left to sit in the west wing, and sat at the head of the bed and kept crying, calling a son for a while, and muttering something for a while, but in an hour, the doctor really came, and he was also the head of the hospital, Mr. Guo, after the diagnosis of half a salary, it was the same as said before, and the father and son were completely dumbfounded.

Mr. Guo often treats the emperor, and has followed two generations of emperors, and his medical skills do not need to be said, and even he said that there is no cure, so he can only wait for death.

After enduring their grief and sending away Mrs. Guo, both father and son sat silently in Huai Wenyuan's bedroom without saying a word.

"I know how to save my son." Jin Yan's sudden cry alarmed the sad father and son, Huai Wenyuan looked at Jin Yan who ran out of the inner room, his eyes were red, and asked, "What did you say?" ”

"Childe saved a girl on the road, that girl is very similar to Childe's illness, she was about to die, we also looked for a doctor to check, they are all very similar to what Doctor Guo said, but that girl can absorb the essence of the moon every night, and she is stunned that she has not died until now, I think about putting that girl and Childe together and carrying them to the yard, maybe I can save Childe's life." After talking incoherently for a long time, Huai Jizong was confused.

"What girl?" He asked.

"Oh, father, I know about this, it's the girl that the fourth brother saved on the road," and turned to the cautious half-believing voice, "What you said is true?" ”

"Of course it's true, that girl is not a mortal, not only did she not die when she was so seriously injured, but she would automatically heal herself, and put her and her son together, hey...... Now I can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor. Jin Yan was a little anxious, of course he didn't dare to say that the cold aura on the son's body might have been contaminated from the woman, but since the woman could resist the cold qi, she must also be able to help Huai Wenhan.

"This is not appropriate, let's say that Wen Han has already made a marriage, and he can't take advantage of the danger of others to ruin the reputation of others, our Huai family is also a big clan with poetry and etiquette inheritance, how can we do such a ridiculous thing." Huai Jizong shook his sleeves and said angrily.

"But, what about Childe?" Saying that, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Master, please, Childe is about to die, and now this is no way, master, master." ”

"Father, it is not unreasonable to say this, the most important thing now is to save the life of the fourth brother, the eldest brother and the second brother are thousands of miles away from the battlefield and cannot return, the grandmother is newly mourned, and now the fourth brother has three long and two short, our Huaifu can not withstand such a blow, it is better to try it like this first, and then accept the fourth brother as a concubine, with the status of our Huai family, will we be wronged." Huai Wenyuan also persuaded on the side.

The two talked for a long time, Huai Jizong opened the bead curtain, walked to the head of the bed, and saw the terrifying Huai Wenhan finally nodded in agreement.

Zhu Yifei, who was originally unattended in the carriage, was suddenly valued at this moment because of the extraordinary significance of each other, and she was carried to the courtyard with a sense of embarrassment in the crowd, and Huai Wenhan was also carried into the courtyard with her on the wide bed.

After Huai Wenyuan warned the servants who knew and dismissed them, he said to Huai Jizong: "Father, go and rest, I and Jinyan will just watch here." ”

"I'll go see your mother." After glancing at the two figures hidden in the tent on the solid wood bed of Nansi, he said, "Take care of the people, don't let them say anything bad, especially over there in King Mu's mansion." ”

"Don't worry, father."
