The light in his eyes was as if he had been doused with a basin of cold water.

"It's not a secret, although the medicinal materials in this are precious, they are not difficult to find, except for a taste of medicine-" Before he finished speaking, he saw He Xi take out an object from the package, carefully wrapped it in a cloth bag, handed it to the old man and said, "What did Mr. say is this?" ”

The old man hurriedly put down the scroll in his hand, took it with both hands, opened it to see, and the joy instantly rose to his eyebrows, and he said loudly: "Devil? Is it really a devil? Childe was able to find a devil? He put the thing under his nose in disbelief and sniffed it gently, and after making sure that it was correct, he said excitedly: "Yes, yes, yes, the prince is saved, the old man will go to develop a prescription." ”

He Xi stretched out his arms to block the old man's way, and said slowly: "Sir, I don't know, can this medicine be enough to treat the people in the city?" ”

The old man paused, and said in a deep voice: "Maybe, maybe-" Both of them fell silent, and finally, He Xi put down his arm dejectedly, and the old man went down with the medicinal materials to prepare, until He Xi was left standing in place, her fingers clenched into fists, and her heart was constantly struggling, at this time, Wang Lang came over quickly, and said in a deep voice: "Little master, it's not good, that child is starting to have a fever." ”

He Xi turned around, Wang Lang saw that her thin shoulders seemed to shake slightly, but soon, that worry was suppressed by He Xi's life, Wang Lang also knew in his heart how she persevered along the way, obviously a woman, but that kind of tenacious character was not lost to a man at all, for the first time, he had a feeling of admiration for a woman.

He Xi took a deep breath, lowered his head and said, "Let's go, let's go and see——"

He Xi raised his feet and walked outside, bypassing the two pavilions and pavilions, and arrived at a small courtyard, the people in charge of guarding, when they saw He Xi, they all saluted respectfully, presumably someone had already informed them.

But seeing that He Xi wanted to go to Xiaoyu's room, someone immediately stopped him and said, "Childe, no, that child should be infected with the epidemic, Childe-"

He Xi saw that the people in and out of Xiaoyu's room were the same as the people he saw on the city tower that day, all wearing white robes, and wearing specially made gloves on their hands, He Xi shook his head indifferently and said: "It's okay, I brought this child all the way over, if there was an epidemic, maybe I would have already had it." ”

The man looked at Wang Lang, Wang Lang saw He Xi insisting, so he nodded at the man, and the guards saw that Wang Lang was also like this, so it was not easy to stop her, and let her in.

The room was lit with a faint smoke of wormwood, He Xi saw a person lying on the bed, it was Xiaoyu, he had woken up, his eyes were wide, he seemed to be a little distracted, he heard the sound, tilted his head, saw that it was He Xi, his eyes were dull and painful, he turned his head, and said hoarsely: "You go out-"

He Xi stopped a little helplessly, no longer taking a step closer, he was blaming himself, blaming himself, blaming himself for forcibly separating him and his sister, Xiaoyu saw that He Xi just stopped, pursed his lips, and a trace of struggle and pain appeared in his eyes, and finally, he looked at He Xi with a look that seemed to be looking at the enemy and said, "You go out, I don't want to see you-"

He Xi just asked him, "Why?" Is it because I brought you out of that valley? ”

Xiaoyu said in a muffled voice: "Yes-you made me an unkind and unrighteous brother, I didn't protect him before, and now I still leave Xiaoxue there alone, she must be very scared-"

Xiaoyu said, his voice was a little hoarse, and he even began to cry, he was immersed in his own pain, he pounded his head hard, and touched the wound on his arm, but he didn't seem to feel the pain, like a walking corpse, He Xi didn't stop it, just said firmly: "Have you ever thought about it, if Xiaoxue is still there, what does she want you to do, she must hope that you will live well." ”

She seemed to be immersed in the memories, and said faintly: "I also have relatives and brothers, I know what they think, no matter what hardship, they want to bear it themselves, for me, their only vision is that I can live well, live happily and happily." My brother must have thought the same way—" Her voice was as ethereal as a cloud about to drift away.

The young man on the bed didn't say a word, and for a while, it seemed that there was even a sound of smoke and dust in the room.

"I'm tired, son, go back-" The young man's tone was full of exhaustion, as if he was really tired, He Xi sighed lightly and turned to leave.

But I didn't see the young man turn his head and whisper to her back: Thank you.

Yes, in Xiaoyu's heart, He Xi is a good person, but just now he heard the words of those people, he has a high fever and does not go away, he should be infected with the epidemic, and he has dragged down Childe, he knows that Childe brought himself out for his own good, and also for himself to be able to live, but now that he has the epidemic, he can no longer harm others, and he is even a little relaxed in his heart, is Xiaoxue waiting for him, so that they can reunite.

Thinking of this, the little boy couldn't help but laugh.

When He Xi returned to the study, Lu Ran told her that Tuoba Yue had fallen asleep, he slept very deeply, and he was very vigilant, and he didn't even notice that he pushed the door.

He Xi walked to the edge of the collapse and saw Tuoba Yue frowning slightly, as if he was sleeping very unsteadily, even in a dream, he was suffering from unspeakable pain.

He Xi's heart was throbbing, she had to admit that Tuoba Yue was a different existence for herself, she was willing to take the risk to see him, even if it wasn't to save him, even if it was just his last face, once, she thought she just didn't want to lose a strong and powerful partner, but now, maybe some things have slowly changed and changed their original appearance unconsciously.

She took a small embroidered pier, sat in front of Tuoba Yue's collapse, stretched out her fingers, and tried to smooth out the folds in his eyebrows, as if she would never get tired of it, and she would not be annoyed.

By his side, He Xi always felt at ease, and the fatigue of the whole day suddenly came up, and she fell asleep half leaning on the soft edge.

On the other side, Xiaofu in southern Xinjiang.

The butler was coming in briskly through the door and went straight to Xiao Tian's study.

Xiao Tian looked at the past as forty people, and there was a faint trace of fierceness in his eyebrows and eyes, as the patriarch of the Xiao family, he had a majestic aura on his body.

Seeing that the butler was drenched in sweat on his forehead, he couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "What happened?" In such a hurry. ”

The housekeeper took out a letter from his bosom and said, "Master, the young lady sent an urgent report from the capital. ”

Xiao Tian flipped through the pages of the book for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Naer? Isn't Nell praying for blessings from the Queen Mother in some Zhaohua Temple? Is something going on? ”

The butler just shook his head to show that he didn't know, and he said in a deep voice: "Miss just sent someone to send it back urgently, thinking that something important happened." ”

Xiao Tian sat up straight, opened the letter, and read it carefully before and after, and then said coldly: "How can this be?" ”

Xiao Tian leaned on the backrest as if he had lost his support, and the housekeeper rarely saw Xiao Tian's reaction, so he hurriedly asked, "Master, but what happened in Beijing?" ”

Xiao Tian's eyes were gloomy, and he looked at the letter in his hand and said, "Tuoba Yue has been infected with the epidemic and is now trapped in Shu-"

They knew about Tuoba Yue's trip to Shuzhong, but it was the first time Xiao Tian knew about the epidemic.

"Then the old man means, but he wants to send someone-" The housekeeper thought that Tuoba Yue was cultivated by Xiao Tian, thinking that at the beginning, when Tuoba Yue came, he was just a helpless little prince, if there was no Xiao family to help him for so many years, he might have been eaten alive by these families who seemed to be famous families.

"The dragon trapped in the shallows can still be saved, but if it is a dying dragon, then things will be different-" Xiao Tian sighed, his tone was full of unwillingness, could it be that their Xiao clan was destined to decline?

The housekeeper didn't expect Xiao Tian to be so decisive, and he said with some hesitation: "But, miss."

There—"

He grew up watching Xiao Nai and Tuoba Yue, the two were childhood sweethearts, Xiao Nai was even more devoted to Tuoba Yue, and wanted to come to this letter because he wanted Xiao Tian to help Tuoba Yue.

"This is the decision of the Xiao family, how can you allow her to mess around, you immediately send someone into Beijing and bring her back to me!" Xiao Tian crumpled the letter into a ball and threw it in the paper basket beside him.

The butler replied in a deep voice, and then retreated.

There seemed to be a figure flickering outside the door, but it was only an instant that there was no trace of it, and no one noticed.

At this time, in the Xianwang Mansion in the capital, Xiao Nai was simply sitting still, with a strategist on the side, his eyes were a little hesitant, as if he was thinking about something.

Several people looked at each other, and finally one of them stood up and said, "Miss, we don't know whether to talk about something or not." ”

Xiao Nai was upset at this time, so he said impatiently: "If you have anything to say, don't say it quickly!" ”

The strategist was reprimanded, but there was no trace of dissatisfaction, they were originally Xiao Tian's subordinates, and they were sent to follow Tuoba Yue, one was to help him make suggestions, and the other was to supervise, and it was precisely because of this that Tuoba Yue's every move was almost all carried out under Xiao Tian's nose.

He arched his hand and said, "My subordinates think that Miss should go back to Southern Xinjiang now-"

"What? What did you say? Xiao Nai thought that he had misheard, so he couldn't help but repeat it, and the strategist repeated: "The subordinates think that since the young lady sent a letter to the patriarch, it must not be long before the patriarch will send someone to take the young lady back to southern Xinjiang, and the young lady should prepare in advance." ”

Xiao Nai slapped the table and said loudly: "Presumptuous, Brother Yue is now trapped in Shu, you actually made such a plan, I am not afraid that Brother Yue will come back and ask for your dog's life!" ”
