144, nine miles

Xiao Chiye hurried back and rested for the night. He would have to get on his horse and return after midnight tonight. He had a tight schedule and had spent these two days saving up. In order not to delay the transportation of the baggage to the battlefield, he ran continuously. On the □ day, I just wanted to see Shen Zechuan.

But who thought he would be so angry?

Xiao Chiye held up Meng, took off Meng's anklet and put it on again, causing Meng to flap his wings and get angry. Xiao Chiye also lost his temper, which annoyed him, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

Ji Gang strolled back with the bird cage and was surprised when he saw Xiao Chiye. After hesitating for a moment, he came in. Xiao Chiye greeted his master. He was so tall that Ji Gang had to look up at him while standing beside him.

"The war in the north is intense," Ji Gang said, handing over the birdcage, "Your master must have fought hard."

Xiao Chiye hung up the birdcage and said, "It's hard work. Master is thinking about you and will mention it from time to time."

Ji Gang put his hands behind his back and said, "I have never fought in a war, so I am of no use. Do you have something important to do when you come back in such a hurry?"

Xiao Chijie thought that he had nothing to do yet, so he responded: "The space in Beiyuan Hunting Ground has been given to me. The Forbidden Army plans to stay there. I will come back to ask Lan Zhou about the progress. When the time is almost up, I will arrange for someone to come over."

Ji Gang knew that they had discussed these matters in detail, so he nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Xiao Chiye rarely met Ji Gang, so he took the opportunity to say: "Did Lan Zhou fall ill on the way to Chazhou? Master, he was picky. You were watching him when he was at home, and he picked and ate a little of everything. He was willing to do it when he was ill." Drink medicine. When he goes out to do errands, everyone listens to him and no one is watching him, so he dares to pick."

When Ji Gang heard this, he remembered it and said, "I wanted to talk about him yesterday!"

"He diverted it for you," Xiao Chiye finally stopped fussing, raised his arms and walked away, "He has a guilty conscience, and I'm sure he won't dare to mention it to you."

Ji Gang nodded and felt something was wrong again, so he asked, "Why are you guilty? Is there anything Chuan'er is hiding from me?"

"Yeah," Xiao Chiye frowned slightly and said, "He made such a big cut on his left hand. The return trip was long and the medicine was not changed frequently. When I watched it last night, my palms were soaked with sweat. Already."

Ji Gang's expression changed, and he asked: "Where are the others?"

"Sleep," Xiao Chiye paused for a moment, then continued, "I slept late last night and was very tired. I felt tired when I woke up this morning. From now on, Master will still have to keep an eye on him to prevent him from not taking his body seriously. I Being so far away from the north, many things can only be said in letters by him. If he wants to hide it from me, I won't know anything."

Ji Gang straightened his body and said, "I have to keep an eye on him and change his dressing." After thinking about it, he sighed again, "I didn't raise him in the temple before, and all the doctors we hired were useless. I don't see why. His health is not as good as The longer time passes for others, the more they need to be taken care of. You also know that when he entered the capital, he first suffered the punishment of imprisonment, then the beating of the imperial staff, and then your kick... That kick was really hard! If not With the help of Jin Yiwei's old acquaintances secretly, Chuan'er would have been in danger a long time ago. At that time, I suffered heavy losses, and I took medicine to cover up people's eyes. Now I am worried day and night, just because I am afraid."

Xiao Chiye was silent for a moment, then suddenly lifted his robe and knelt down. He supported the ground solemnly and kowtowed to Ji Gang.

Ji Gang was immediately shocked and said: "What are you doing?"

In this posture, Xiao Chiye said to the ground: "Six years ago, I rode in Zhongbo. I hated Shen Wei the most. I despised him for abandoning the city and fled. I was also afraid of the Queen Mother supporting a puppet, so I kicked Lan Zhou in the capital. .Master said it right. I kicked him hard at that time with the intention of killing him."

Ji Gang choked for a moment, and was afraid that Shen Zechuan in the room would hear him, so he stopped talking and sighed heavily.

Xiao Chiye calmed down for a while and then said: "Lan Zhou is ill now. It's my fault. The doctor at Zhongbo is not good. I have already invited Master Yideng. When the war eases after this autumn, my master will also I want to take a pulse. Even if Lanzhou is difficult to raise, I still want to raise it. But now I am far away in Libei, and I cannot delay my march to deliver food. If I can’t see him, I won’t be at ease. There are too many things like Chazhou, so I I have neither relatives nor friends in Zhongbo. Only Master can entrust me to him. Master, Lan Zhou suddenly encountered a disaster when he was young. He likes to hide his feelings and does not talk about his injuries and pains. But he regards you as his father. As long as you are by his side, He will always take care of it. I have no other request, I just ask you to scold him a few times and let him realize his mistakes and pain - next time he does this kind of thing, you will slap me, Xiao Ce'an!"

Ji Gang stayed there in shock, feeling that something was wrong with what he said, but for a moment he couldn't tell what was wrong. He looked at the window, and there was the sound of a tea cup tapping through the bamboo curtain, but there was no movement at all.

After catching all the frogs in the pond and having dinner, the yard was very quiet.

Xiao Chi went to take a bath after the meal. Lang Tao Xuejin and Meng were both fed. Shen Zechuan fished out a handful of newly planted Jiuli Xiang from under the eaves of the station. There was no one else in the courtyard. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the small table under the eaves Some refreshments were placed on the table. Shen Zechuan sat down and stared at the sunset in the distance.

Xiao Chiye came out soaked in water and squatted behind Shen Zechuan while wiping his hair. Shen Zechuan grabbed Jiuli Xiang and turned his head. Xiao Chiye bowed his head and kissed Shen Zechuan. The setting sun was orange and the world was silent. , even Feng was very sensible and left this square inch of courtyard to the two of them.

Shen Zechuan suddenly turned around and threw Xiao Chiye down under the eaves. Xiao Chiye leaned half against the door frame, hugged him tightly, pressed the tip of his nose against Shen Zechuan's cheek, and said in an evil voice: "You pressed me and I got hurt. .”

Shen Zechuan threw the broken Jiuli Xiang into Xiao Chiye's pocket and said, "Let me touch it and see."

Xiao Chiye didn't let him look, but grabbed Shen Zechuan's wrists and pulled him towards him. He was strong and strong, and it was not difficult to support Shen Zechuan. He only supported one leg, and even sitting looked uninhibited. The two of them were next to each other. Together, from dusk to dark.

In fact, Xiao Chiye has been unhappy for the past half month.

The Shasan Battalion captured by the Forbidden Army was given to Guo Weili. When Guo Weili came to hand over, he met Gujin. Both sides disliked each other, and there was friction among the soldiers below. Xiao Chiye swallowed his breath and took over at Bianbo Camp. Wu Ziyu's position was determined, but escorting the supplies was far more difficult than imagined. He was shouted at by the chief generals of the major battalions at the battle site. When he retreated to the border, he had to report everything to Xiao Ji in detail. After leaving the military tent, he Dealing with merchants from Luoxiaguan and even Huaizhou, I would often drink wine all night, then mount my horse and rush to another camp before dawn.

But he didn't plan to tell Shen Zechuan any of these things.

Xiao Chiye thought of the long tune of Hongyan Mountain. He couldn't sing it and could only hum it playfully. Shen Zechuan rested his head on the person, clutched his clothes, closed his eyes and slept in the fragrance. Xiao Chiye hugged Shen Zechuan, humming, it was almost time, so he picked the person up and took him back to the house.

Without letting go of Shen Zechuan's fingertips, Xiao Chiye leaned over and blew into his palm. He knelt down and looked at it for a moment before saying, "I'm still angry."

Shen Zechuan half-opened his eyes, poked Xiao Chiye's cheek, and whispered: "Don't be angry."

"You know how to lie to me, you..." Xiao Chiye was speechless for a moment, "The second young master is so easy to deceive? You can bully an innocent young master."

Shen Zechuan suddenly lay down on his stomach and faced Xiao Chiye head to head.

Damn, this look.

Xiao Chiye could only swallow his anger, pinched Shen Zechuan's cheek, and said hoarsely: "Just try to be coquettish with me, it's useless, Shen Lanzhou. If you stab yourself next time, I will kill you in Libei." No more. I am no longer there, do you remember?"

Shen Zechuan nodded honestly.

Xiao Chiye came closer, knocked Shen Zechuan with his forehead, and said, "I'm leaving."

Shen Zechuan didn't let go and said, "When will you come back next time?"

Xiao Chiye couldn't answer. He touched Shen Zechuan's cheek with his fingertips and said, "As soon as possible, there are a lot of things to do. It will be easier in autumn."

It was midnight. Shen Zechuan loosened his fingers and looked at Xiao Chiye.

Xiao Chiye had never found it so difficult to stand up. He quickly tied on his armbands, put down the bed tent, and finally scraped the tip of Shen Zechuan's nose with his lower hand and said, "Sleep well, Lan Zhou."

Lang Tao Xuejin left the city at night and flew northward following Xiao Chiye.

Chenyang had already met him halfway, and Xiao Chiye had to sleep for a few hours when he arrived at Bianbo camp, and then went north to the battle site. At the same time that Xiao Chiye left Cizhou, a donkey entered the territory of Zhongbo.

The donkey was carrying a man. The man was lying down, and he couldn't tell whether he was alive or dead. Several hungry cat meows came from the cuffs. The man opened his eyes with difficulty, looked at the dark road ahead, and then closed them again.
