Chapter 343 Important things
At night, everything is silent, except for the howling cold wind.

The clear light sprinkled obliquely, the candles flickered in the room, and the light and shadow swayed.

Beside the bed, a woman was curled up on the edge of the bed, her facial features were beautiful, but her eyes were slightly bruised.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a slight sound in the room.

She turned her face suddenly, and looked at the source of the sound like a torch - the man with his eyes closed on the bed moved, his chest trembled for a moment, and there was a painful hoarse sound in his throat, and he slowly turned his head.

Lian Luo's face was pale, his forehead was sweating, and his eyes were red.

Xiyun hurriedly got up and grabbed his wrist, "Lian Luo, how are you?"

Lian Luo tried his best to hook the corners of his mouth, but didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, with unspeakable emotions in his eyes.

From the full expectation when he first returned to Ye Mansion, to the complete despair later, his mood has already sunk.

Enduring the pain and being brought back by the Ye family's army after a long journey, he hoped that there would be a turnaround when he returned to Jin, but at the end of the day, not only a few government doctors were helpless after consultation, even the military doctor brought back by Ye Zhengping found it very difficult.

Today, these physicians do nothing more than try to slow down the spread of the residual poison.Even so, the toxin almost invaded the heart veins, and after dawn, even a genius doctor would have no power to recover.

When Xiyun was stared at by him like this, her heart suddenly tightened, "Lian Luo, are you?"

Lian Luo shook his head, grabbed her arm weakly,

"You rest first, we wait for news."

"Pity the cloud."

"Yeah." Xiyun looked up at him.

"I" Lian Luo said with difficulty, "I have something to say to you"

Perhaps it was because of his injury, he didn't dare to use too much force, and he couldn't speak clearly.

She wiped the cold sweat off his forehead distressedly, "What do you want to say to me, you can talk about it when you are better."

Lian Luo stared at her blankly, his eyes gradually became firm: "These things are very important."

Hearing this, Xiyun was stunned, and lowered her eyes not to look at him.

"I seldom tell you about my affairs. I used to think that these things are not available, and you should not be interested in knowing." Lian Luo sighed, with self-deprecating words, "Actually, I have a half-fashioned place in Jindu. My house is only for marching and fighting outside on weekdays, and I will never have time to live there for a few days before going south, so I have someone repair it." He paused, suppressing the cough in his chest.

"I originally thought that if you were still unhappy living in the Ye Mansion, I would repair it and give it to you." A look of longing appeared on his face, but it was bitter, "A month ago, Commander Ye promised me, When I go south and earn military merits, I will ask the general to make the decision and let me be the chief executive. I think that when I have status, if I say anything to you, it should be different."

Xiyun raised her head, her eyes filled with crystal tears: "You"

"However the world is impermanent. It doesn't matter if you can't earn military merits. I'm just afraid that if I'm not here, you will live well. Although the time I was in the house, I didn't make you happy."

His tone was very soft, and he even seemed humble and pitiful, Xiyun's heart was sore, and his eyes were blurred.

Seeing her crying, Lian Luo felt guilty and distressed, and couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe her tears, "If I'm not here, you and Ah Qing can move in, I still have money in Ye Jiajun's account Enough for you to make a living, settle down with you and Ah Qing, and you can also find a good man to marry."

"Why should I marry?" Xiyun asked back, tears welling up in her eyes, "I won't marry after you die."

"How can you say such nonsense! The poison on the arrow has penetrated into the blood. Even if you survive, you will be useless. I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you anymore." He became excited, his throat was so hoarse, as if he could cough and bleed at any time .

"Lian Luo, listen, I don't allow you to abandon me and go alone!" Xi Yun tried hard to control her tears from falling, but her heart was in a mess.

She understood what he said, but she didn't want to admit it.

For her, the person in front of her is a special existence.

In the past, where the great maid of the Ye Mansion was so beautiful, Lian Luo was never seen.

In the most desolate and embarrassing places, he is always there.

This person who she once mistaken for a passer-by has already been quietly engraved in her heart.

Faint footsteps could be heard in the yard, as if someone was coming, Lian Luo took a deep breath, suppressed his beating heart, and tried his best to make his voice sound normal, "Xi Yun, I'm not worth it"

Before he could say anything, he felt that it was getting more and more difficult to breathe, he even struggled to breathe, cold sweat dripped down his forehead, his body was tilted and twitched, his hands clasped the side of the bed with convulsions, his teeth were clenched tightly, as if to Crushed it up.

"Lian Luo, what's wrong with you?!" Xiyun was terrified, "Come here! Call the doctor, hurry up!"

At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open, and a man in a gray-blue gown walked quickly. The clothes were simple, but he carried a noble air. Behind him were two doctors and a maid holding a copper basin.

Seeing the person lying down on the bed, he immediately pressed his shoulders.

"Hurry up and help him lie down, I'll be right there." After the man ordered, he ran out in a hurry.

"Yes, Doctor Lin." The two doctors looked respectful.

Xiyun and the two maids hurriedly helped Lian Luo onto the bed.

Lin Qingshou came back quickly with a box of things.

He gave Lian Luo a pulse and ordered several people to cooperate with him in administering the needles.

At five o'clock, the room finally returned to calm.

On the other side of Ye Mansion, Ye Zhaoyan had just come out of the shower, wearing a white jacket and long hair shawl, she exuded an unusual demureness, only her slightly frowning brow revealed her thoughts.

Zhuyu held a bowl of medicated porridge and handed it to her, "Miss, have a bowl of soup and medicine, you haven't touched a drop of water for several hours."

Ye Zhaoyan glanced at the decoction on the table, did not move, but frowned and asked, "How is Lianluo?"

"It is currently being bandaged to stop the bleeding. The doctor said that as long as tomorrow is over, it will be fine."

Ye Zhaoyan heaved a sigh of relief, and turned to look out the window, "Is there anyone in the palace?"

"The concierge is watching, but there is no news for the time being."

Hearing this, she took down a military book from the shelf, and leaned against the window to read it.

Zhuyu sighed and stepped back.

Ye Zhaoyan didn't look into the art of war in his hands, and his mind was in a trance.

Suddenly hearing a slight knock on the window, she put down her book of war and walked to the window, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the cold wind blew the branches and rattled, a bird perched on the window eaves not far from her, tilting its head , looked at her suspiciously.

It's getting cold, and even the birds that spend the winter have to choose homes to keep warm.

But she wanted to leave Jindu and go to a place far away from her hometown to find her relatives.

"Squeak—" The window was suddenly blown open by the wind.

Ye Zhaoyan looked sideways, and saw a tall figure standing outside the window lattice, with half of his body hidden in the shadows.

Just wondering, the man came out, his innocent and harmless handsome face was exposed in the moonlight.

"Miss Ye." The voice carried the usual gentleness.

It is Zhuo Yibai.

Because it was against the light, people couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, Ye Zhaoyan made a strange noise.

He left suddenly, and appeared in front of him secretly again.
