Huang Yi's injury was not serious to begin with. In addition, he had successfully defended the city this time. After some rewards, he and Shen Lei became the captain of the city guard, so he couldn't help but feel wind on his feet. He was taking a message from the city lord to inform Yu Ji that he had something to discuss. He also wanted to take a look at the hunter named Lan who had been treated as a beggar. After all, he was the one who prevented two villains from causing more damage. He couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart, and the previous contempt was gone. live.
Seeing that the door was open and it was daytime again, Huang Yi stepped into the house without thinking and saw Yu Ji leaning on Lan. He immediately understood something and could only let out a few dry coughs.
"Cough. Cough." Several dry coughs interrupted Lan's heavenly feeling.
Yu Ji also hurriedly blushed and muttered, "I'm going to make a pot of tea." Then she walked towards the teapot and poured half of the tea onto the mahogany coffee table with trembling hands.
Huang Yi doesn¡¯t want to embarrass Yu Ji anymore. I looked at Lan who was lying on the bed. His face was as pale as a few days ago, as if he had taken some big tonic pills taught by Taoist priests in Maoshan. The blood on his face was as red as red dates, and he could not tell that he had been injured at all. , seeing that Lan was fine, he felt a lot more at ease.
After Yu Ji adjusted her posture, Huang Yi took a sip of the tea he had just brewed, and said hurriedly, not wanting to delay the order on his body:
"I was entrusted by the city guard to bring a message to Yu Ji, saying that I have something to discuss with you and have some dinner together. I will explain it in detail then."
"Well, I understand. Thank you for the guard's notice. I will definitely be there on time." Yu Ji has adjusted from the previous panic, and there is a hint of gentleness in her calm tone. After all, Huang Yi also has some life-saving ideas for herself. kindness.
Seeing that his message had been delivered, Huang Yi walked to Lan's bed and looked at Lan's injuries. Although there is still a hint of bright red under the thick gauze. But as a soldier, he knew clearly that the wound was no longer serious, and it should heal completely after waiting for about half a month.
Huang Yi was just about to say goodbye when he heard a hearty voice coming from behind him. "Is there anything to eat at the dinner? Can I go? I've been unconscious here for who knows how long. I haven't eaten for a long time. If I go down, I'll starve to death."
"It is true that there will be a lot of food, and there are also some delicacies. But can you go with your body?" Seeing that the voice was Lan's, Huang Yi didn't need to use his politeness.
"You must go if you have something to eat." Lan ignored Yu Ji's obstruction and jumped out of bed. Except for the gauze on his shoulder that told others of his injuries, he looked so lively and energetic that he didn't look like a person recovering from a serious illness.
"Okay, okay. I'll talk to the city guard. He also knows your identity. There should be no problem." Huang Yi also wanted to get to know the young man who miraculously rescued him from Ancheng as Yu Ji said. After agreeing to Lan's request, he stood up and left.
And time is like running water, and soon it is evening, and the time agreed with the city lord is coming soon. Lan has already dressed and can't wait to eat, while Yu Ji is carefully in the house. Dressing up, I looked in the bronze mirror from time to time. The rouge and gouache I bought earlier also came in handy. I also put on the long-lost luxurious clothes again.
"Beside the bronze mirror were two small clay figurines. The defective one was broken into two pieces by the jolts of the carriage and was stained with blood. Yu Ji spent a lot of time to barely repair it, and now it can only be seen vaguely. She didn't mind, so she put the little man and the other one together, placed them next to the bronze mirror, and couldn't help but look at them for a while.
"Yu Ji, are you okay yet? I'm starving to death!" Lan's voice came from outside the door. He had driven Lan out of the house when he wanted to change his clothes.
Yu Ji didn¡¯t agree either, she just stood up slowly and walked out of the door. But Lan was already waiting there. When she heard the sound of Yu Ji going out, she looked back.
The setting sun shone on the beautiful woman with pink makeup. Lan also saw for the first time the way Yu Ji applied her makeup. He felt that Yu Ji at this moment was like stepping out of the original painting, and there were more women than the one in the painting. A little angry, I couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, trying to reflect the beautiful scenery of this moment into my mind.
She walked towards her slowly and took her hand. Her hands were like catkins, and her face was as beautiful as Shunhua, just like a fairy coming from heaven to greet her.
¡°Let¡¯s go and see the city lord together.¡±
Lan didn¡¯t agree, but followed Yu Ji on the way to the City Lord¡¯s Mansion. Lan felt very happy, not sure if it was the warmth in her hands or the upcoming dinner.
