The road from the backyard of the General Soldier's Mansion to the gatehouse was not far, and I saw Uncle Gen and a few subordinates busy with something along the way.

When Uncle Gen saw her, he was at a loss in a hurry, and he didn't know what to say, "Girl, you, you are still injured, what about this ......, Zhen'er?" ”

Yao Fangyu covered the wound, and didn't know what medicine she used, and it didn't seem to be very painful, so she smiled and said, "It's okay." After a pause, he asked, "He, how is it now?" ”

Uncle Gen let out a long sigh and shook his head, "It's not good, General Feng and they are all trying to figure out a way." If something really happens, we'll be really sorry for the second son. If the girl is okay, go and see it. ”

Outside the gatehouse, Baxi stood at the door with red eyes, trying his best not to cry, but he still couldn't stop crying.

"Baxi."

Baxi looked up and saw that it was Yao Fangyu, jumped up in a daze, and wiped her tears even more in a panic, "Yao, Miss Yao." ”

"What's going on?" Yao Fangyu asked as she pushed open the door that was hidden in the room.

"No, no......." Baxi pulled her, hurriedly let go, choked and said, "The young master doesn't want the girl to see and see." ”

Yao Fangyu didn't enter the door, frowned and asked, "What's wrong with him?" Badly injured? Why don't you take care of him outside? ”

Baxi sobbed, his voice filled with sadness and grievance, "Xiao Lian said, don't cry in front of the young master, he wants me not to cry before I can go in." ”

Yao Fangyu didn't ask again, ignored Baxi's obstruction, and opened the door directly.

In the room, Xiao Lian sat on the edge of the bed, holding Nangong Jin's pulse with one hand, with a serious expression and motionless. And Nangong Jin's face was ashen, lying with his eyes closed, and every time he breathed, he seemed to be doing his best.

"Baxi, feed again." Xiao Lian thought that it was Baxi who came in, and ordered directly.

Baxi wiped his tears and jumped out from behind Yao Fangyu, ran to the table, added some water to the bowl and poured it into the small stone mortar, picked up the stone and pounded it non-stop.

"What is this?" Yao Fangyu silently walked up to Baxi and asked.

"Brown rice." Baxi blushed and whispered.

Yao Fangyu stopped Baxi's hand, picked up the small stone mortar and took a closer look, and said angrily: "What brown rice!" It's rice bran! You're going to give him this? The way he is now, how can he swallow it?! ”

"I, I'll try my best to make it thin, young master, young master can still eat some ...... the day before yesterday." Baxi was going to cry again.

"The day before yesterday?" Yao Fangyu was shocked, "You have been hungry for him for two days?!" What are you doing? Do you want him to die?! ”

"Young master, young master, ......."

Baxi was anxious, and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xiao Lian, "If you want to talk, go out." Young master, be quiet, you will get sick! ”

Yao Fangyu turned around and went out directly, but Baxi didn't follow, still pounding the rice bran with tears. When Yao Fangyu entered the door again, he was holding a bowl of batter in his hand, while Baxi was trying to feed the rice bran to Nangong Jin.

"Baxi, I'll come." Yao Fangyu said softly.

Baxi raised her head, looked at the bowl of batter in her hand in a daze, and muttered, "The young master has confessed, this ......." ”

"I don't want to know what your young master has confessed, but now, you go away." Yao Fangyu tried her best to keep her voice low, and said seriously: "Unless, you want him to die!" ”

Baxi was frightened by Yao Fangyu's attitude, looked at Xiao Lian, saw Xiao Lian nodding, and walked away gently.

Yao Fangyu looked at Xiao Lian, who was always sitting on the edge of the bed with his pulse, Xiao Lian seemed to understand what Yao Fangyu meant, and explained in a low voice: "The young master has no strength, if he gets sick again, we don't know at all, that's the only way." Also, Mr. Gao and Dr. Li both said to be quiet. ”

Yao Fangyu nodded, although there were many questions, but she didn't ask any more, just sat lightly at the head of the bed, picked up the spoon and fed the batter.

Nangong Jin didn't seem to have any strength, and she didn't have any consciousness with her eyes closed. Yao Fangyu tried to feed him with gentler and slower movements, but it took a long time to eat only half a small bowl, and more came out later.

Yao Fangyu gently wiped it clean for him, and he was a little sad. Squinted and saw that the collar of his shirt was full of blood, and he was stunned and didn't say anything. Get up carefully, gently put the leftover batter on the table, pull Baxi, who was standing aside and staring at Nangong Jin's tears, and motioned for him to go out and have something to say.

Baxi followed silently until he was far away from the porter.

Yao Fangyu stopped, turned around and looked at Baxi and asked, "What is his illness?" ”

Baxi lowered his head and struggled, wondering how to answer.

Yao Fangyu sighed slightly, "Did he say something and don't let me know?" ”

"Mr. Gao just left...... Baxi muttered in a low voice, "He said, he's going to figure it out." ”

"Baxi, wouldn't it be nice to have one more person to figure out a way?" Although Yao Fangyu was annoyed that Nangong Jin was hiding everything, she still asked softly as much as possible.

"But, but ....... My young master is a good person. Baxi looked up a little aggrieved, looked at Yao Fangyu expectantly, and wanted her to nod.

Yao Fangyu couldn't guess Baxi's thoughts, "I know." ”

"Before, I didn't know. The family said that my young master was not a good person, and even my mother said ....... Baxi stopped when he said this, felt as if he was very sorry for his young master, and hurriedly said: "Now, I know, they are all talking nonsense, those people, some of those people have not even seen the young master, so they talk nonsense!" Miss Yao, don't believe it. Afraid that Yao Fangyu wouldn't believe it, he added, "My young master is really good." ”

Yao Fangyu looked at Baxi and asked with a pleasant face, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's okay, it's just ......." Baxi lowered his head again.

"Is it his illness, not very well?" Yao Fangyu guessed.

Baxi was entangled and asked in a low voice: "Miss Yao, will you still marry my young master?" ”

Yao Fangyu didn't expect him to ask this, so he had to answer: "At present, we still have a marriage contract." ”

"My young master is really good, there was food for the commander in the General Soldier's Mansion, but the young master didn't eat it once, and he even gave it to me and Xiao Lian when Miss Yao sent it. In normal times, it is what he eats in the barracks. Afraid that I would be hungry, take me into the barracks and give me half of it. The city has long been out of food, and even rice bran is only one meal a day. The young master has explained that the white noodles of the General Military Mansion are all for Miss Yao. Baxi said quickly, thinking of what to say, seeing that Yao Fangyu didn't talk, he became anxious, "That day, Miss Yao was injured, and it was the young master who brought you back." I also gave the girl the only bit of gold creation medicine to you. However, my young master was also injured, there was no medicine in the city, and even the straps were used up. Miss Yao, you, will you marry my young master? ”

Yao Fangyu was secretly shocked. What surprised me was not what Yaxi said, but the purpose of saying this. So, he asked softly, "He's very sick?" ”

"No, no, no." Baxi seemed to be about to cry, seeing Yao Fangyu take a breath, think about it and cry, and nodded again, "Before, the young master was seriously injured before returning to Pingyang." I heard my aunt say that at that time, I thought it would be no good, but it was rescued by Dr. Du, and then I fell ill and would get sick from time to time. The family has always let the young master recuperate. However, the young master can't sit still, so Dr. Du has been following, and he has also prepared medicine for the young master, and he has to take it every day. We have been out of Pingyang for a long time, the young master's medicine is almost gone, and the city is still sealed with ....... Now he's hurt again, and he's going to send it almost every day, and I, I'm really scared, I'm afraid of ....... ”

"Where was he hurt?" Yao Fangyu continued to ask.

Baxi hesitated, but still replied: "Heart." Then he was afraid that Yao Fangyu would hear something if he arrived in Pingyang, so he cried and said: "If, if we go back to Pingyang, there will be many people who say that if we marry the young master, we will be widowed, but, but the young master is a good person, this, this is not true, Miss Yao ......." ”

"Okay, I got it." Yao Fangyu nodded and continued to ask: "The bleeding on his body hasn't stopped yet, what does Dr. Li say?" ”

"Now, it's just the grass and the ashes ......." Baxi lowered his head, and then emphasized again and again: "The young master said that it can be sewn up and tied tightly, and it will be fine." He said that nothing would ....... ”

"I know." Yao Fangyu said with certainty: "He said that it would be fine, so he must not, don't cry." ”

Baxi nodded with tears in his eyes, and finally said all the worries he had in the past few days, and looked at Yao Fangyu as if he had found a support.

The gatehouse, across a wall is the street of Tianchengwei, and the sun shines on the earth, and there is a burning feeling. The two of them were silent, Baxi still couldn't stop his tears, but Yao Fangyu was listening carefully to the sounds outside, strangely quiet, only the occasional gentle sound of the wind. The Tartars didn't enter the city?!

Finally, she took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "Have the Tartars withdrawn?" ”

Baxi looked sad and indignant when he heard this question, "The Tartars are gone, but Datong Mansion sent troops to seal the city!" I've heard the reason is the plague in the city! It's been two days, General Feng tried his best, but everyone ignored it! How are those people like this! If you don't come when you go to war, ...... now"

Pestilence? Yao Fangyu was also shocked when he heard the news, and hurriedly interrupted him and asked, "Who else is there in the city besides General Feng?" ”

Baxi thought about it carefully, lowered his head and said sadly: "General Ding, General Jin, and Mr. Gao, it seems that this is all." "I was familiar with everyone just now, and the soldiers who laughed at his small body were gone, and they were separated forever. Baxi couldn't help but cry again. That's why the young master didn't want him to enter the barracks.

After a pause for a long time, Baxi wiped away his tears and continued: "Those people who left the city have not returned to the city, and they don't know the situation now. General Kim was wounded. ”

Yao Fangyu looked at Baxi, who was about the same age as his junior brother, took pity, nodded and commanded softly: "There is still half a bowl of batter in the room, feed him after a while, eat more will have strength, I will let the kitchen send all the food here, you take care of him." ”

"But, but Miss Yao ......." Baxi looked up when he heard this, his face full of anxiety. I'm afraid that she already dislikes her young master, regrets that she talked too much just now, and wants to pull her, but she doesn't know what to do.

"I'll go to General Feng, there will definitely be a way, don't worry." Yao Fangyu didn't care what he was thinking, smiled, and walked towards the outside of the General Soldier's Mansion.
