Chapter 63: A Sad Thing

Seeing Li and Feng Yan return to the house, Tang Sanxue looked at Wei Xingzhen with a smile, "Lord Wei, it's strange and cold this day, do you think we should change places and get down to business?" ”

Wei Xingzhen shook her head, "Let's talk about it in this courtyard." ”

Tang Sanxue's smile condensed slightly in the bleak autumn wind, "...... Shall we go to the side room? Also in this yard. ”

Wei Xingzhen's afterglow locked the door of Si Yongzhai's house tightly.

"No, Father-in-law Tang," he said in a low voice, "or you will come with me into the main room, and we will talk in the living room, or we will stay here and make things clear." ”

Tang Sanxue's fist clenched in his sleeve.

- Is this Wei Xingzhen specifically bullying people or what?

Obviously, His Majesty specially explained that he wanted to avoid others, and went into the house and said-who can guarantee that the Li family next door didn't hear it!? Not to mention that there seemed to be other outsiders in the house......

"What is Your Majesty's will tonight, Father-in-law Tang will say it quickly." Wei Xingzhen completely ignored Tang Sanxue's face, and he glanced at the room where Feng Yan was again, intentionally or unintentionally, "I have a lot of other things to do tonight. ”

……

Inside the house, Li walked to Feng Yuandao's side and told Fang Cai everything one by one, Feng Yuandao breathed a sigh of relief, and then covered his body with a blanket and lay down.

Li took Feng Yan to the living room again.

"Father-in-law Tang is here, and he can't be allowed to go back empty-handed." Li said softly, "In addition to the silver reward that is usually given to the palace people, you also have to prepare some small gifts, my mother will go out for a while, and you will be here to watch your father." ”

"No need...... Feng Yan said with a smile, "Tang Sanxue can't ride on our heads yet." ”

"You, I used to say that you were transparent, and you were almost hot when you encountered these things," Li Shi laughed lightly, "Villains are difficult to prevent, what you are talking about is people like Tang Sanxue, you don't expect them to help you when you encounter problems, maintaining a good relationship on weekdays is nothing more than letting them make some stumbling blocks in secret." ”

Feng Yan smiled - this is her mother's survival wisdom, let her go.

After Li left, Feng Yan lifted the door curtain alone and stepped into the room again.

Mei Twelve didn't even look up before she knew that Feng Yan was back alone.

She stood far away by the window, looking out at the night through the gap in the window, without saying a word.

Mei Twelve twisted the silver needle in his hand, looking at Feng Yuandao's dry skin and drooping calves expressionlessly, he heard a gust of autumn wind passing by outside the window, and a few jackdaws howling in the wind.

It's three quarters past you, and it's here.

Mei Twelve suddenly turned around, "...... Can I ask Childe for a favor? ”

"Ahh Feng Yan came back to her senses and looked at Mei Twelve, "Please speak." ”

"Uncle Fang Cai said that he wanted to recognize the herbs I brought before, can Childe help bring the rest of the herbs?"

"Yes," Feng Yan nodded and looked at Feng Yuandao, "Where is the rest of the medicine?" ”

Feng Yuandao frowned and thought for a while, "It should be...... It's in the room next to me where the books are stored, and Yan'er will see if it's on the second shelf. ”

Feng Yan turned around and went to look for medicine.

After a while, her voice came from next door, "No, think about it again?" ”

"That's in the cabinet under the window on the south side." Feng Yuandao shouted with a stiff neck.

However, soon, Feng Yan replied again, "Still not." ”

Feng Yuandao thought for a long time, "-Ah! I remember! On the small round cabinet next to my desk - Yan'er, will you look for it again? ”

This time after a long time, there was no sound from next door, Feng Yuandao shouted a few times and did not respond, he was a little strange, and looked at Mei Twelve, "Mr. Mei, you go and take a look?" ”

Mei Twelve lowered her eyes and replied "yes", got up and walked to the next room.

To be honest, he didn't know what Feng Yan was doing in the other room at the moment, why he suddenly lost his voice.

But whatever happened next, he wouldn't be surprised.

For the first time in so many years, he encountered the result of "no taboos" in Ah Yu's divination.

- So this is a hundred taboos?

Everything around him was helping him clear the way......

He didn't have to do anything, he took advantage of the right time and place.

Standing in front of the hidden door of the study next door, Mei Twelve stopped briefly.

He lowered his head and took off the glove in his right hand and moved his fingers slightly.

Mei Twelve held her breath and stretched out her hand to push the door open.

Feng Yan stood alone in front of the table, and on the table in front of her was the medicine bag that had been opened. Feng Yan's eyes were half-open, and she was concentrating on sniffing the smell of one of the medicinal herbs.

Hearing the sound of pushing the door, Feng Yan looked up.

"What is Childe doing?" Mei Twelve's expression was calm, "Uncle Feng is calling you." ”

"I'm sorry, I didn't hear ......" Feng Yan folded the medicine bag again, and then walked to Mei Twelve's side, "I want to ask Mr. Mei, what is this medicine ......?" ”

Mei Twelve looked at Feng Yan's palm stretched out in front of her, and there was a curled dark green vine skin in her palm.

He didn't answer, but said in a low voice, "Why is Childe interested in this flavored medicine?" ”

"The smell of this herb makes me feel indescribably familiar......" Feng Yan said softly, "I don't know where I've seen it." ”

Mei Twelve raised her left hand and pinched the rattan skin in Feng Yan's palm in her hand.

"This is a mountain shark, also known as a mountain spring guest, which is a detoxifying herb...... Have you ever heard the story of the mermaid crying pearls? ”

"There are sharks in the South China Sea, and the water dwells like fish...... Feng Yan said softly, "Is this 'shark man'?" ”

Mei Twelve nodded, "Yes." ”

He put the shark back into the medicine bag in Feng Yan's hand.

"Legend has it that when a merman weeps in sorrow, the tears shed will turn into pearls, each of which is worth a fortune. So some fishermen took the newly dead baby out to sea at night, and left the child's bones in the sea where the merman was infested, and soon the merman would resurface with the child in his arms, and they would shed tears when they saw that the baby in their arms was still dead. ”

"The so-called 'mountain shark' is a shark who strayed into the mountains and forests. Someone coaxed them from the sea, along the river all the way upstream, trying to raise them in the river pond, the mermaid was so humiliated that he cut his throat and died, and the blood splashed on the ground turned into vines......"

Mei Twelve laughed, "It turned out to be an herb that can detoxify people." ”

Feng Yan heard a bit of sarcasm from Mei Twelve's laughter, "...... It seems that Mr. Mei thinks this is not good. ”

"Well," Mei Twelve nodded, "it should become a poisonous weed with no cure, don't you think?" ”

Feng Yan did not answer.

In silence, she suddenly felt a slight sorrow coming from Mei Twelve's bodyβ€”she rarely felt emotional ups and downs in this person, and most of the time, he was like a bystander without sorrow or joy, completely ignoring everything else.

"Mr. May...... Do you feel sorry for the merman? ”

Mei Twelve shook her head.

"It's been the time I've spent with you so far, it's always been a lot of fun." He looked at Feng Yan and said sincerely, "This makes me feel ...... Very sad. ”
