In the Jieyang Station, Runsong looked at An Jinchen who was lying on the bed after drinking medicine, and his face was abnormally flushed.

Everyone was in a very low mood these days, and no one noticed Ah Chen's strange appearance, until today when he got off the carriage and fell to the ground, only to find that he had been feverish.

Xiao Xia's appearance has hit everyone hard, especially Ah Chen, who is his own brother.

He has been sluggish these days and eats less, so it's no wonder that he doesn't get sick.

This time it was not only Ah Chen who was hit, Shi Yu, who was injured and had a fever since yesterday, and Mu Tan, who was in guilt and couldn't extricate himself.

A little girl who often cries out of sight.

He didn't know if these people could make it to the capital, and the one who was waiting didn't know if there was a chance to come to them.

The weather is not good today, it is drizzling outside, Mu Tan took a bowl of medicine and handed it to his cousin who was embroidering on his clothes, this newly made dress is obviously a woman's style.

Lan Xuanjiu was embroidering an orchid on his clothes.

"Cousin, drink the medicine and make it again!"

Lan Xuanjiu didn't speak, took the medicine bowl, drank it in one go, and continued what he was doing.

Mu Tan took the empty bowl and looked at Lan Xuanjiu, who was pale, and thought that his aunt had three sons before her death.

The eldest cousin and the second cousin have been learning martial arts with their uncles since they were children, and they have developed a sense of masculinity, and when they grow up, they follow their uncles to guard Jiayang Pass.

I heard my mother say that when my aunt was pregnant with her third cousin, she wanted a daughter, but after she was born, she had a son.

The third cousin was raised by the eldest aunt as a daughter since she was a child, not only learned the family's martial arts, but also taught her the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, cooking, and her aunt carefully taught her.

Before the accident at my cousin's house, the third cousin's temperament was also raised by the eldest aunt to be very girly, and he rarely went out to socialize with people, gentle and well-behaved, just like he showed during this time.

It's just that when the third cousin was twelve years old, bad news suddenly came from Jiayang Pass, and his uncle-in-law and two cousins died on the battlefield in order to guard the border pass.

On the day the body was returned, the aunt, who had a slight heart attack since childhood, fainted on the spot and never woke up.

Since then, the third cousin after a serious illness has been like a different person.

Calmly took it, and the emperor remembered the Marquis of Jingyang given by his Lan family for generations of loyalty.

I remember when he was fifteen years old, he went to the Jingyang Marquis Mansion and accidentally saw that the childish third cousin took a knife with an expressionless face that day and cut off the head of a servant who had drugged him.

The skull rolled off, and blood was scattered all over the ground.

Mu Tan put the empty bowl on the table, turned to the window and looked out, the sky was gray, and he could only faintly see the treetops swaying in the distance by the wind.

The rain on the eaves was dripping down, and Mu Tan raised his hand to cover his chest, thinking of the girl who had been hiding here, he even felt pain in breathing.

Mu Tan's originally cold and bright Ruifeng eyes have now dimmed, if it weren't for his mother's revenge, he really wanted to go with her, and it would be a good place to return.

I don't know if it was the rain that drifted into the window and fell on his face, and a crystal drop of water at the corner of Mu Tan's eyes rolled to the ground and melted into the dust, blurring his vision.

Just when his eyes lost their luster and fell into despair, Mu Tan suddenly looked at a place, and his heartbeat involuntarily accelerated.

Staring closely at the gray rain curtain, it was not completely dark at this time, and a slender figure could be faintly seen leaning over and riding on a horse.

The horses were getting closer and closer to the station, and Mu Tan didn't feel it when he bit his lip, otherwise he turned around and ran towards the door.

Even tripping over the bench next to the table almost made him fall, but it didn't stop him from running out.

Lan Xuanjiu looked at Mu Tan suspiciously when he heard the movement, his heart was stunned, and he also stood up and hurriedly walked out.

An Chuxia tied his horse and walked into the post station, and saw Runsheng and An Zixi sitting in the lobby of the post station with their heads down.

"Brother Runsheng, Xiaoxi!"

The two who heard the cry looked at An Chuxia blankly, An Zixi reacted, rushed over and hugged An Chuxia, and said in a choked voice: "It's good that you didn't die, cousin!" ”

"...... "How can this kid speak?"

Then he pulled An Chuxia and walked towards the room where An Jinchen lived, and said eagerly: "Cousin, go and see Cousin Chen!"

He hasn't eaten properly during this time, and now he has a fever, and it seems that he can't do it! ”

This sentence really scared An Chuxia, who walked faster than An Zixi, and even trotted with An Zixi, who was leading the way.

Hearing this, Runsheng finally reacted.

“……？！” Runsong felt that his good brother could still stand up, and it should not be to the extent that he couldn't do it.

An Chuxia is now in her heart that her brother is not good, even Mu Tan, who greeted her with excitement, and Lan Xuanjiu, who is alias Shi Yu, she didn't bother to say hello.

I walked over in a hurry.

At this time, An Chuxia had lost his former calmness, and his good-looking peach blossom eyes showed a panic that could not be concealed.

When he opened the door and saw the person lying on the bed, An Chuxia pursed his slightly pale lips, with tears in his eyes, and stood there not daring to step forward.

After being stunned for a moment, Runsong finally showed a relieved expression on his face.

Then he strode over, losing his previous steadiness, and happily patted An Chuxia on the shoulder twice.

Fortunately, An Chuxia is not like an ordinary weak woman, so she was not slapped to the ground by Runsongpu's two slaps.

"My brother~" An Chuxia asked a little timidly!

Runsong replied: "I have a fever, I just finished drinking the medicine and fell asleep." ”

An Chuxia saw Brother Runsong's face, and there was no sad expression of his brother's failure, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

She walked to the side of the bed and saw An Jinchen with his eyes closed, and reached out to touch his forehead.

An Chuxia frowned slightly, the temperature on An Jinchen's head was still very high, and the fever should not have subsided.

Feeling the coolness on his head, An Jinchen opened his eyes in a daze, and when he saw the person in front of him, he thought he was dreaming.

His lips were chapped and he muttered: "Sister, are you here to pick up my brother, if you are gone, my brother doesn't want to live." ”

Hearing this, An Chuxia held tears in her eyes, and finally couldn't help falling.

A teardrop fell on the palm of An Jinchen's outstretched hand, and his eyes widened in horror as if he had been burned.

Suddenly sat up from the bed and hugged An Chuxia, and the suppressed whimper was sad to hear.

With tears in her eyes, An Chuxia gently patted her brother's back to soothe his uneasy heart.

"I'm back... Brother! ”

Lan Xuanjiu looked at this pair of brother and sister with deep feelings, his eyes were jealous and irritable, and he wished that the woman was holding and comforting him.

Mu Tan regained his clear eyes and looked at An Chuxia, whose clothes were still dripping with rain.

The corners of her lips raised slightly, thinking that it was so good, as long as she lived!
