It was pitch black in the West House, and the boy could be seen lying on the kang.

"Why didn't you get some wax?" Li Ziyu fumbled for a candle from the wooden box and lit it with flint, and the room immediately had a dim light.

Li Ziyu walked to the kang with the wax and touched the boy's forehead, feeling very hot. Seeing that the boy was still asleep, he was a little worried. I'm really afraid of something, I'm afraid that he will have a fever, and he really has a fever. Think about the injury that the boy was wounded, how could he not have a fever. In ancient times, there were no antibiotics, and even herbal medicines were slow to treat the symptoms.

"Alright, let's get out."

Li Ziyu held the candle and dropped two drops on the wooden box, pressed the candle on it while it was hot, and the candle was firmly glued to the wooden box.

Li Ziyu took another candle from the wooden box and took Xiaoshan and Xiaowen out of the West House.

The hall was also pitch black, and Li Ziyu lit a candle and stuck it on the Westinghouse pot. Then open the curtain of the east house, so that the light can also be seen in the east house, and the things you bought today are placed one by one. First of all, the cotton cloth was placed on the Dongwu kang, the rice and white flour pockets were untied and the ropes were placed vertically in the southeast corner of the Dongya, and the salt, various spices, daggers, and straw paper in the bamboo basket were taken out. Vinegar, soy sauce, pepper oil paper packets, and large oil paper packets are all placed on the pot table to facilitate cooking. All kinds of coarse grains and soybeans were placed next to the rice and white flour pockets, and the salt bags were placed in the hall, and she had to pickle the deerskin later. She placed the dagger on the kang head of the East House and covered it with an old quilt.

After everything was settled, Li Ziyu went to the hall to cook.

For dinner, Li Ziyu made rice porridge mixed with rice and sorghum rice, and fried a venison cabbage, because of vinegar and soy sauce, it was obviously much better than the previous dishes. Several children ate a few bowls of porridge before putting down their chopsticks, touching their bellies one by one and shouting that they were full.

Xiaohu and Xiaolan can already eat with chopsticks by themselves, but the rice grains they eat are everywhere, not counting on the table, nose, cheeks or even clothes, which can really be described as miserable. The cloth towel in Li Ziyu's hand kept wiping them, and she had to educate them not to drop rice grains and to eat them in small bites. In short, a meal is like a war.

After eating, the three little ones showed off their puppets, which was very lively. It's just that I also know that there are patients at home, and my voice is very low, and I am very sensible.

Looking at the puppets in their hands, Li Ziyu remembered the puppets of Xiaoshan and Xiaowen in her arms when she left, and she forgot to talk about cooperation with the boss of Jixiang Cloth Village. Not only that, but she is likely to provoke someone she can't mess with, and someone she can't mess with. Alas, there is no way, if Sun Yanjun insists on getting along with herself, she can only continue. I hope she doesn't implicate her siblings.

Li Ziyu didn't cook for the boy, even if he did, he couldn't eat it. When he is sober, I will make him some millet porridge to eat, and he will raise people.

She only kept about three catties of venison, so she put a little bit of cabbage in the fried cabbage today. There were still three pheasants in the house that had not been killed, and there were four more that had been killed in the town. She had planned to give some venison or pheasant to the people in the village. But now that she thought about it, she still didn't want to be swaggering. The main thing is that there is a sick person at home who needs to increase nutrition, and venison is the most nourishing, so let's wait for next time. Alas, I don't know how long this favor will be owed.

After the meal, Li Ziyu spread the old quilt on the kang in the east house, and asked Xiaolan to lie on the kang first, and sleep when she was sleepy. Who knew that Xiaohu had to follow, so Li Ziyu had to take another pillow. The wooden box of vegetables on the kang in the east house was moved to the east again, and Xiaohu and Xiaolan were lying on the old quilt that had been laid out. Only half of the old quilt was laid, and the other half was covered with sleep at night.

In the west room, Li Ziyu asked Xiaoshan and Xiaowen to take Xiao Wu to sleep first, she always had to pickle the deer skin and go to bed late to look at the boy first. Xiaoshan and Xiaowen refused at first, but Li Ziyu said that you don't sleep, can it be that you wait until the second half of the night, in case the boy wakes up, you will sleep again? Be of good cheer, I will call you then.

So, Xiaoshan took Xiaowen and Xiaowu to sleep in the West House first.

Li Ziyu hurriedly pickled the deer skin.

He moved the table from the West Wing to the hall, spread the deerskin fur side down on the table, and then evenly and unceasingly spread fine salt on the meaty side, until the two deerskins were pickled in the middle of the day, and eight catties of salt were used. After rubbing the salt, fold the two deerskin furs facing outward, wrap the salt in it and put it in a wooden barrel, and add water to cover the leather surface. The barrel is placed near the door of the hall and well ventilated to ensure that rain and snow do not leak before it is completely completed.

After that, stir every day to melt the salt and eat the fur thoroughly, so as to keep the fur from shedding. After seven days, it can be fished out and the next step is to cook the skin.

After Li Ziyu finished pickling the deerskin, she moved the wooden table back to the West House. When I looked at it, I found that Xiaoshan and their little brothers had already slept and didn't know what it was, so I couldn't help laughing. Children like them are when they feel too much, that is, if they hadn't supported themselves with their will, they would have already laid down.

He looked at the boy again, touched his head, and found that it was still very hot, and sighed worriedly. So he walked out of the West House, soaked a clean cloth towel in cool water, wrung it out, and put it on the boy's forehead. Let's see if it works, it would be nice if there was wine, but unfortunately where did the wine come from in this house?

Li Ziyu thought that there were still three days of medicine, and if it was not good after taking the medicine, she would have to go to the hospital. Looking at the West House, there was nothing to do, so Li Ziyu took a thick wooden stick and closed the courtyard gate, so that it was at least safer. Because a thicker wooden root was used to top the courtyard gate, there was no wooden stick to top the door in the hall, so the door had to be inserted well. Fill the stoves of the east and west houses with firewood and plug them tightly with adobe bricks, so as to ensure the temperature of the kang at night.

Picking up the wax from the pot and holding it back to the east room, sticking the wax to the adobe bricks along the kang, Li Ziyu went to the kang to inspect the vegetable box. Seeing that the soil in the boxes was a little dry, he moved the vegetable boxes to the kang and poured some water on each box. When he saw that the radish sprouts had grown two leaves, his heart rejoiced. It's not easy, in ancient winters, it was really difficult to eat vegetables.

At this time, outside the courtyard wall of Li Ziyu's house, four or five black shadows flew over and stopped outside the courtyard wall. Then I saw a black shadow flying over the courtyard wall, and came to the front of the house without a sound, and stopped for a moment in front of the windows of the east and west houses, respectively, and then flew back again.

Then, three people stayed outside, and two people flew in.

Li Ziyu in the room suddenly felt very tired and wanted to sleep. She climbed to the kang forcefully, but before she got on the kang, she seemed to hear movement outside, and when she wanted to get up, she couldn't move, and she was horrified. Busy biting his tongue with his teeth to stay awake, holding his breath and quietly listening to the movement outside.

It seemed that two people had come in outside, one stayed outside, and the other poked open the door and inserted himself into the house. The man who came in went straight to Westinghouse. When she wanted to hear it again, she fainted and didn't know anything.

Ren Xiaohang entered the West House, glanced at the three children of Zhengxiang who were sleeping in the west of the kang, reached out to hold Jiang Junzhang's pulse, and quietly called the pulse. Then he took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, broke open Junzhang's mouth and poured the medicine down, and waited slowly.

When Jiang Junzhang opened his eyes, he saw Ren Xiaohang standing under the kang and looking at him, and he couldn't help but smile, but that smile was more ugly than crying.

Ren Xiaohang looked at him fixedly and asked, "Do you know who did it?" ”

Junzhang twisted his head to the side and didn't speak.

"Isn't it the second child?"

"Don't you know everything, and ask." Jiang Junzhang said awkwardly.

"I told you a long time ago, be careful of him, you don't believe it, this is a loss, right?" Ren Xiaohang sighed and sat on the edge of the kang.

"Yes, I didn't expect him to use the dragon guard that his father gave him to me." Jiang Junzhang said sadly, "I have always regarded him as my elder brother, and he has taken the most care of me since I was a child." Now he's killing me because of a rumor that I don't know if it's true or not. The people who followed me were gone to protect me, but they grew up with me."

Jiang Junzhang said that tears couldn't help but flow.

"Okay, okay, the dignified fifth prince is still crying, and he will be fifteen years old soon, are you ashamed?" Ren Xiaohang tried his best to adjust the atmosphere, so as not to hurt his body too much.

Jiang Junzhang burst into tears and laughed: "As if you are old, aren't you two years older than me?" ”

"Two years old is also old, anyway, I won't cry nose."

"This is the last time I shed a tear! In order that the people who protect me cannot die in vain, I will not shed any more tears. Junzhang raised his arm and wiped away his tears vigorously, and said with a blue face and gritted his teeth.

"In this way, this is the fifth prince I know." Ren Xiaohang saw that Jiang Junzhang's mood had eased, so he asked, "What's going on?" How does he know your whereabouts? Didn't you receive a secret decree? I just cooperated with your actions, and I was a day late, and you had such a big thing. I also blame me, I thought he wouldn't be so mad, thinking that you have a guard by your side, even if you are not a dragon guard, you can protect you with the skills of a guard. ”

There is a sentence that Ren Xiaohang did not say, why did the emperor give the eldest prince and the second prince dragon guards, but the other princes did not.

"I don't know" Jiang Junzhang grimaced, recalling the before and after of the incident.

It turned out that the person Li Ziyu saved was the fifth prince of the Daye Dynasty, named Jiang Junzhang, who was only fourteen years old this year.

Emperor Ji Ming of the Daye Dynasty had a total of five adult princes, and the Hinghua Palace where the eldest prince lived a few years ago suddenly caught fire, and Fan Chuyu, the eldest princess who was pregnant with Liujia at that time, was killed by two corpses, and the eldest prince was also disfigured, resulting in a great change in temperament. Originally, the emperor intended to set up the eldest prince as the crown prince, and the eldest prince was born to the queen and was the eldest son, with outstanding ability and resolute temperament. After the accident, the eldest prince broke the can and got drunk with wine all day long, as if he was a different person. The emperor postponed the establishment of the crown prince, and did not mention the establishment of the prince for several years, but secretly inspected the virtues, ethics, ability, and popularity of several princes.

This time, the fifth prince took the emperor's secret decree and came to the border town of Baishan City, wanting to find the frontier commander Ren Changqing to learn a secret. Ren Xiaohang, as the deputy commander of Long Wei, followed the escort, and in order not to attract attention, the two agreed to go separately, and finally met in Shiyan Town.

Unexpectedly, when he was about to arrive at Shiyan Town and passed through a small forest, Jiang Junzhang, who was one step ahead, was assassinated in broad daylight. The killer is masked in a black scarf, strong in martial arts, deadly in swords, and vicious in swords. The people who followed Jiang Junzhang were all royal guards, who grew up with Jiang Junzhang since he was a child, and all of them desperately escorted Jiang Junzhang into Dalingzi Mountain.

When he fled into Dalingzi Mountain, Jiang Junzhang was left alone. Thanks to the secret medicine prepared by Jun Zhang with his master, at the critical moment, he swallowed the Nine Turns Great Pill prepared by his master, and used the three fatal moves passed down by his master, killing the people who surrounded him one by one and threw them into the swamp. Unexpectedly, when he threw the last person, he ran out of strength due to serious injuries, and he also fell into the swamp, so he was rescued by Li Ziyu who was passing by.

Thanks to the fact that the tip of the knife of the assassin was not soaked in poison, otherwise, Jiang Junzhang would not know if he would have waited for Ren Xiaohang.

But Jiang Junzhang was finally dying due to his injuries, and thanks to the doctor Li Ziyu found, he was rescued twice. At least he was conscious, woke up for a while, drank the medicine, and fell asleep knowing that he was safe. It's just that in the end, he didn't know that he was unconscious with a fever, and he thought that the doctor in the village was skilled in medicine, and he didn't know that Ren Xiaohang swallowed the life-saving Nine Flowers Jade Dew Liquid for him.

He knew that since Ren Xiaohang came, the bodies of the guards who followed him would definitely be properly disposed of, and all traces would be erased. It's just that he is still very sad in his heart, on the one hand, for the sake of those guards who sacrificed their lives, and on the other hand, for the ruthlessness of the second brother whom he regarded as his own brother. Is it true that the royal family has no flesh and blood affection? Although those killers tried their best to hide their moves, Junzhang was still exposed to their origins. Because there is a killer who is the personal guard of the second prince Junhong, Atai, this person is extremely familiar with Junzhang, so he recognized it at once. At that moment, his whole world collapsed. Therefore, Jiang Junzhang, who swallowed the master's pill, greatly increased his skills, and he was completely desperate to play, and soon killed the killer, and Atai was the last one to be killed by him.

Ren Xiaohang knew that Junzhang did not want to dust the pure land of his heart, and he naively and stubbornly wanted to protect what seemed to him to be the most important thing. Don't you know that what he does and wants to protect is an illusion, a mirage, and it is not real at all.

There is no father-son affection in the heavenly family, and this bloody fact must be experienced by himself, so that he will be sober, and others cannot persuade him.

Ren Xiaohang calmed Jiang Junzhang for a while, and then told him everything he knew about Li Ziyu's family.

Finally, he said, "It's more secluded and it's not noticeable." You take care of your injuries here first, and don't worry about anything else. You know that the Sun family is a secret post placed here by the second prince, and there are a lot of people under him, and I am also targeted by them. I can't come here openly, I can only come here at night. Don't worry, I'll leave good medicine, and you'll be cured in a few days. You should take the medicine prescribed by the village doctor as usual, so as not to make them suspicious. ”
