As soon as Xie Jiuxiao's hand touched the doorknob, Lu Chengfeng said from behind: "Stop."

Xie Jiuxiao was so angry that her liver ached and she didn't want to pay attention to her. She just pretended that she couldn't hear her, opened the door and closed it again.

Lu Chengfeng breathed out, thinking to himself that reasoning with this guy didn't seem to work. He thought about it and got up and chased him out. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a person sitting with his knees under the steps.

The moonlight coated Xie Jiuxiao's body with a faint silver light.

Lu Chengfeng walked down and knelt down beside him: "I spoke for him purely for the sake of the future."

Xie Jiuxiao turned her head and didn't want to pay attention to her.

Lu Chengfeng said: "Think about it, this disaster relief matter is not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites. Why did the emperor send someone from the Ministry of Rites to travel all over the country? Mr. Liang, the Minister of Household Affairs, is over fifty this year. If he is stronger, he might be able to

I'll sit there for a few more years, but he will report illness frequently, which is to make way for Cheng Yi."

Xie Jiuxiao was indifferent.

Lu Chengfeng sighed, thought for a while and said: "The issue of military resources has always been a pain for the four major regions. Look at Suidong, Shanxi, and Nanling. Every year, you are not looking at the Ministry of Households. The Ministry of Households is the first checkpoint.

It is really difficult to obtain military resources. If Cheng Yi is promoted to the household department, and we have established a good relationship with him now, he will definitely be easy to talk to in the future because of our past friendship, don't you think?"

Lu Chengfeng looked at his expression and unconsciously raised his arms: "I just want to tell you that he will be an important minister of the emperor in the future, so there is no need to make it ugly."

Xie Jiuxiao's face moved, but she still didn't speak.

Lu Chengfeng whispered: "What do you want to say?"

"You——" He opened his mouth, then hesitated, and paused for a long time: "I——"

Lu Chengfeng glanced at the sky and said, "It's late at night, what can we say when we go back home?"

She took the person back into the house, closed the door, and said again: "What did you want to say just now?"

Xie Jiuxiao couldn't say anything and could only shake her head.

Lu Chengfeng thought for a while, then suddenly walked to the table and turned off the light. The room suddenly fell into darkness, and people could be vaguely glimpsed through the moonlight: "What now?"

Xie Jiuxiao's anger was inexplicable, and it was even more inexplicable when he left: "I just feel - I feel -"

Lu Chengfeng said: "Think I might like him?"

Xie Jiuxiao hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Lu Chengfeng looked directly at the person and walked towards him step by step. Xie Jiuxiao stepped back inexplicably and forced the person into a corner: "Didn't I say I wouldn't like him?"

Xie Jiuxiao whispered: "I know - but - he is an outstanding member of the Tan family in western Shanxi. He was the most beautiful boy in high school six years ago. He is knowledgeable and talented. Now he is the most trusted courtier of the new emperor. Tan Cheng Yi

You are only twenty-four or five this year. Compared to me, you are obviously more like a fellow traveler.

Xie Jiuxiao used to always feel that he was better than others in everything, but in front of Tan Cheng Yi, or more accurately, in front of Lu Chengfeng, he always felt a sense of unconfidence, and his eyelashes drooped slightly.

Lu Chengfeng understood, pondered for a moment, and said: "I don't deny that Tan Cheng Yi is indeed an outstanding person. He must have skills, family background, appearance, and looks. He can hardly find a fault. But you

It seems that you don’t have a very correct understanding of yourself. Although you have not participated in the imperial examination, you are not bad in terms of talent and learning. Uncle Ho is so unkind to you and praises me that your talent and learning are not inferior to Cheng Yi. When it comes to family background

, he is even less comparable to you, how can the Xie family's lintel be easily surpassed by Cheng Yi in just a few years?"

"Do you like these?"

Lu Chengfeng smiled lowly and looked at the person: "I really don't value these things, so guess what I value?"

Xie Jiuxiao pursed her lips.

Lu Chengfeng came closer: "Guess."

Xie Jiuxiao didn't guess: "What do you value--"

After swallowing the word "uh", Lu Chengfeng suddenly came closer. Their eyes were so close in the darkness that they could touch each other if they moved even more.

Lu Chengfeng's eyes were full of desire: "Of course I value you. No matter how nice others are, it's none of my business, they are not you -"

As she spoke close to her, she put her hand along the edge of her robe. Xie Jiuxiao's eyes became a little wet, and the ends of her eyes were slightly raised due to teasing.

"It's so beautiful." She said appreciatively, her tone soft and filled with a different kind of warmth.

Xie Jiuxiao's throat rolled, and he couldn't help but pick him up. Lu Chengfeng circled his neck and looked down at him. Xie Jiuxiao was about to move to the bed, and Lu Chengfeng whispered: "It's right here."

Xie Jiuxiao's thoughts have been lifted by these few words, and the heat is surging, making people instantly become hot.

The fire of desire burned two stubborn people.

Lu Chengfeng squinted his eyes hard, and the bites on his neck were all red. It was obviously painful, but he felt a huge sense of satisfaction. His ignorance made Lu Chengfeng temporarily forget everything, only remembering the warmth and passion at this moment.

Her fingertips climbed up along the sweat on her neck and stroked his cheek. The little wolf dog's eyes were excited, confused, and a bit fierce. Lu Chengfeng smiled and praised him silently,

Then he frowned deeply.

Day by day, the fierce fire of Yanjing finally burned away the nightmare that had troubled her for a long time. No matter what the truth was in the future, Lu Chengfeng would only be Lu Chengfeng.

It started to rain at night, with thunder and lightning, and occasional whispers, and the curtains fell and the room was filled with fever.

Lu Chengfeng overslept in the morning. When he woke up, it was groggy outside and raining heavily. Under such circumstances, the trip to Cheng's pharmacy had to be postponed.

Lu Chengfeng moved and was about to stand up, but the person behind him immediately tightened his grip: "It's raining..."

Lu Chengfeng felt uncomfortable all over his body, and for a moment he didn't know whether to praise him for being young or to blame him——

"You are really a dog - don't - thank you - um -" Lu Chengfeng was forced to escape with a final sound.

Xie Jiuxiao dragged her back to the quilt and called her vaguely.

"Chengfeng——"

"Chengfeng..."

Lu Chengfeng responded.

…

It was almost noon when he got up. Lu Chengfeng spent a long time shopping around the wardrobe. After careful consideration, he had to choose a robe that covered the collar. After dinner, he had nothing to do and picked up the things he had not finished reading yesterday.

books.

Xie Jiuxiao lazily leaned over, raised the book and glanced at it, wondering: "Medical books? Why do you read everything? Don't you like reading the least?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "This is the folk medical code I asked A Yao to find for me. It mainly records the incidence and treatment process of epidemic diseases known in the world today."

Xie Jiuxiao took the book and opened it: "What are you looking at?"

Lu Chengfeng leaned back: "The year Subei was defeated, a huge plague swept through the military camp. This disease was so violent and strange that I suspected someone had tampered with it."

Xie Jiuxiao was stunned for a moment, then frowned: "You mean, someone deliberately infected the epidemic?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "I'm just guessing."

Xie Jiuxiao meditated for a while and said, "Your guess is not unreasonable. The epidemic was so severe that Doctor Wu studied it for several days and said that it was very similar to a disease recorded as 'wind and frost'.

"

"Wind and frost?"

Xie Jiuxiao thought for a while, took a pen and wrote a prescription on rice paper beside him: "He was thinking about it for a few days, and one day he suddenly wrote a prescription in my study excitedly. Take a look -"

Lu Chengfeng took it and looked at it, shaking his head: "I don't understand medical prescriptions. I originally planned to go to Cheng's pharmacy today to have a look, but it rained heavily."

Xie Jiuxiao looked down at the prescription and thought for a moment: "Miss Cheng Er has superb medical skills, why don't we let her take a look?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "I'm afraid it's inappropriate. There is no conclusion yet on this matter. If you act rashly, it will be exposed. Moreover, Cheng Mingsu traveled all over the country when he was young. There may not be local doctors who have detailed information about the Subei epidemic at that time, so there is no final conclusion."

It would be better if one less person knew about this matter."

Xie Jiuxiao nodded and said, "In that case, just go to Cheng's Pharmacy after the rain stops."

Lu Chengfeng put his foot down and thought about it.

Xie Jiuxiao looked at the person, suddenly stood up, rummaged around the room for a while, and came over with a porcelain bottle.

Lu Chengfeng came back to his senses and looked at him doubtfully.

Xie Jiuxiao coughed lightly and suddenly looked a little embarrassed: "Wipe it..."

As he spoke, he put some plaster on his fingertips, put his fingers on Lu Chengfeng's neck and started rubbing it. Lu Chengfeng suddenly laughed, and raised his eyebrows for a moment: "Oh? Now you know you have to apply medicine on me? What have you been doing so long ago?

?”

Xie Jiuxiao paused and did not answer.

Lu Chengfeng clicked his tongue and asked deliberately: "Who bit these?"

Xie Jiuxiao curled her fingers slightly and lowered her eyes.

"Next time you bite me, you'll—hiss—"
