Since Mrs. Meng died, nearly a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and He Xuan is calculating the days, and it is not far from the day when Liao Geng and Jin Se will get married.

He Xuan is really a little anxious at the moment, and she hopes that her sister's marriage will be done soon. Because from Yun Zhen's tone these days, she can faintly hear that the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, although she blames herself a little for thinking about it, but if there is really a day when the emperor is not good and catches up with the national funeral, this family affair will drag on for a long time, and she really doesn't want to see it again.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt depressed, He Xuan didn't bring anyone, and wanted to sneak back to Liao's house quietly to meet Liao Yong. But when I arrived at the tea shed at the mouth of the alley, I saw a person who looked familiar but was actually very familiar sitting there, He Xuan smiled and sat down.

"Why are you free today?" He Xuan asked.

"When am I not available?" Liao Yong replied, of course he didn't just get free today, he came yesterday, and he also came before, but He Xuan hasn't gone out for the past few days, but Liao Yong doesn't want to say these words, and if he says it, it will only make He Xuan feel sad.

"Something?"

"Knowingly, yes. If I can't see you today, I can only send you a message from the flying pigeon," Liao Yong said, smiling, "Tomorrow morning, I will go back to the south." ”

"Oh......" He Xuan nodded.

Liao Yong looked at He Xuan, and wanted to say a lot of things, but right now, he couldn't do anything, he couldn't do anything, so he still endured these words.

"Be more careful on the road."

"I know."

A word of caution also replaced a lot in He Xuan's heart, right now, no matter what he said, he was powerless to express his state of mind, only hoping that the person in front of him would be well.

"Do you want me to bring anything with you?" Liao Yong asked.

He Xuan thought about it, shook his head, then looked at Liao Yong and said, "I just hope they are in harmony." Right now, I can't do anything, and I can't leave Beijing. I owe it to them. I thought I could go and see them, but ......"

"It's nothing, but, I can't go now, there will be opportunities in the future, you still have a lifetime of effort to talk to them, don't rush at this time."

He Xuan knew that Liao Yong was comforting herself, so she nodded and took a sip of tea.

Liao Yong sighed deeply, then looked at He Xuan and said, "I also met Ziqing yesterday, Uncle Zuo has been thinking of a way to deal with your business." But right now, the emperor is sick, and the affairs of the court are in the hands of the virtuous prince, and Uncle Zuo can't decide the matters assigned by the officials. So, I'm afraid you'll have to endure it for the rest of your life. ”

He Xuan looked at Liao Yong, who was frowning, and stretched out her hand, but before touching Liao Yong, she took her hand back. She smiled faintly and said, "Don't frown, this compassionate expression is not suitable for you." ”

When Liao Yong heard this, he also smiled faintly.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Eat and drink every day. It's not easy to have such idle days, reading books every day, practicing exercises, blowing and blowing, and writing. A lot of my time is my own. Look at me, are you all fat? ”

Liao Yong looked at He Xuan left and right, and nodded, "Why didn't I see it!" You wouldn't be that fat, would you? ”

Liao Yong naturally couldn't see that He Xuan was fat, because she had really lost a lot of weight, and even her cheeks, which were relatively plump, had collapsed now, and her face was not very good.

Thinking of this, Liao Yong suddenly remembered something, he looked around, and then lowered his voice and asked He Xuan.

"I didn't have time to say a few words to you that day. The lady who threw herself into the river......"

"I don't know much about that person......"

This rush to answer made Liao Yong understand in his heart that He Xuan not only knew that lady, but also had some understanding of her affairs, no, it should be said that he knew a lot.

"I don't want to ask her about it, I just want to tell you that when I used to live in the Sixth Degree Temple, didn't I say that I dreamed of a lady?"

He Xuan nodded blankly.

"When I saw that lady that day, I was shocked. I thought I was too frightened and fainted again. Otherwise, how could a person in a dream suddenly appear in front of my eyes? ”

He Xuan smiled and didn't answer, Liao Yong suddenly mentioned Mrs. Meng, which made He Xuan's heart flutter all of a sudden, like a child who did something wrong and lied, for fear that the other party would find out what she was concealing, she prayed in her heart, don't let Liao Yong ask again.

"I've only told you about this before, so I just wanted to talk to you. By the way, the lady's funeral has been done, right? ”

Hearing Liao Yong say this, He Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

"Yes. It's all done. When my wife was dying, she said that she would transform herself, so she was great, so I did it. He Xuan said.

Liao Yong nodded, as if he had no intention, and asked, "It's in the Liudu Temple, right?" ”

He Xuan said "um".

The two were silent, just sitting quietly, He Xuan felt in a trance that the scene in front of him was like once in Liao's house, as long as he and she sat together, they didn't necessarily have to say anything, just like that, their hearts were quiet without a trace of waves, clean, pure and pure, as long as they stayed by each other's side, they felt very down-to-earth.

"Into the ......," He Xuan called softly.

"What's the matter?"

"How long will it take to go back and forth?" He Xuan asked.

Liao Yong thought for a while and said, "Approximately, two months of effort." What's the matter, Ziqing asked me like this yesterday. As he spoke, Liao Yong smiled.

He Xuan looked at Liao Yong, and for some reason, she suddenly felt that this meeting was like a farewell between two people. Although Yun Zhen's specific actions are not very clear to herself, she just feels that it is dangerous, she doesn't want Liao Yong to stay here, so she just takes advantage of this opportunity to let him go a little farther and farther away.

"I mean, if you're not in a hurry, you can stay with your uncle and aunt more in the south."

Liao Yong looked at He Xuan, the expression on his face was very complicated.

"How many days have you seen Ziqing?" Liao Yong asked.

He Xuan shook his head.

"Then how do you say the same thing? Yesterday, he said the same thing. Let me stay at home on the south side for a few more days. What's going on? Tell me the truth, do you feel something? Isn't it ......" Liao Yong lowered his voice, "Because the emperor ......"

He Xuan didn't wait for him to finish, nodded hurriedly, and motioned for him not to say any more.

"It's just that I'm sick, why do I think so much? The ...... of Three Disasters and Six Tribulations"

"It's a pity that he's not a common man. I don't know the specific situation now, but since Brother Ziqing also said so, you should be obedient. Who sits in that position is a matter that doesn't matter to ordinary people. However, whether it's you, Ziqing, or even me, we are not ordinary people. If it is replaced, there will be action, and no one can say for sure. At the moment, although everything is calm, who knows how much is going on in private. Saying that, He Xuan sighed, "It won't take too long to listen to me." You just have to stay at home for 100 days. Okay? ”

Liao Yong calculated, 100 days at home, plus the hard work on the road, it will take four months to go back and forth. Time is nothing, but when He Xuan is thrown here, helpless, he really can't rest assured.

"You don't have to worry about me. Again, you're all right, so I don't have to distract my thoughts. It's better to concentrate on one thing than to deal with several things at once, right? ”

Liao Yong looked at He Xuan's face, the smile on it was far-fetched, of course, Liao Yong understood that He Xuan was worried about his heart just as he was worried about hers. But right now, I am also powerless.

For the first time in my memory, this is the first time I have felt such frustration. Once, as long as his money went, he was invincible. But now, I can only sit at home and count the money, but I don't know where to send them.

"Is there enough money on you? I'll leave you some? Liao Yong asked.

He Xuan thought for a while and said, "It's okay." By the way, mention of silver...... This time I went back and the things at home ......"

"It's all small money, it's not worth anything. Ziqing also said this yesterday, I'm really strange, when did you two become so smart. Don't worry, what you want to say, I guess he said it yesterday. ”

He Xuan smiled bitterly and nodded.

Liao Yong took out a brocade bag from his arms, thought about it, and then handed the entire brocade bag to He Xuan.

"You have it all. I think that's enough for you to use in an emergency. ”

He Xuan opened it and took a look, not to mention that there were tens of thousands of taels in it, she frowned and said, "Where do you need so much!" ”

"Keep it. Who knows where it will be used. Remember, if it's not enough, go home. Everything there, you can move or sell, even the yard. Got it? ”

He Xuan thought in her heart: "If it reaches the point of selling the yard, I'm afraid, I can't even save the immortals." ”

However, she still nodded, just to reassure Liao Yong.

Liao Yong looked at the sun, the time was not early, and He Xuan had been out for a while. He bit his lip, stretched out his hand, shook He Xuan's hand, and then let go.

"I went back. Don't wait too long outside. Remember to take care of yourself. If it's convenient, write to me. Don't put yourself in danger because of a momentary mood. If you feel that something is wrong, go to Uncle Zuo, and he will definitely help you. ”

He Xuan nodded, and all of a sudden, He Xuan's eyes turned red, she turned her face to the side, and desperately forced back the tears that gushed out.

"It's really long-winded." He Xuan turned his head and said.

Liao Yong smiled and said, "Okay, even if I'm verbose." Then I'm gone. ”

"Into the mortal...... Remember my words, stay at home for 100 days. If there's any movement here, don't come back. Remember? I'll do whatever it takes to keep myself. ”

Liao Yong nodded, and then responded with a trembling voice: "I believe you." Take care. ”

"Take care."

At the moment when the two of them turned around, four lines of hot tears poured down.
