Chapter 404

The bodyguards with Wei ruo's clothes were naturally Wei Geng and Wei Xin Yirong. The three rode three horses with simple dry food and left the official way on horseback.

"How did you suddenly appear here?" Wei Ruo Yi asked in a low voice, riding a horse on the side of Xiao Jin.

"Didn't I tell you?" Xiao Jin glanced at Wei ruoyi. "I happened to leave Beijing to do business."

"It's really a coincidence." Wei ruoyi nodded, "have you finished your business?"

"En." Xiao Jin nodded vaguely.

After staying up for two days, he managed to deal with all the affairs at hand. Then he left Beijing in the rain all night and didn't dare to delay all the way to Huguo temple. When he arrived, Wei ruoyi had left, and he hurried to catch up with him.

The bridge was still good when he passed. Although the river was turbulent these days, it did not rise sharply. Why did it suddenly break?

Xiao Ziya seldom leaves Beijing. Once she leaves Beijing, she goes so far. Xiao Jin always feels a little strange about this. He just felt that something might happen with his intuition. Sure enough, Wei ruoyi was delayed on the road.

He knew that a few days ago, the Weifu sent a post to entertain guests in the name of weiruoyi. If weiruoyi could not return to Beijing on time and appear at the banquet, he was afraid that there would be more speculation.

"You look a little tired." Wei ruoyi thought Xiao Jin was a little wrong. His complexion was a little abnormal, and the corners of his lips were a little white.

"Things are a little more." Xiao Jin said faintly, "it doesn't hurt."

"Oh." Wei ruoyi was a little worried, but since he said it was ok, she didn't think much.

According to the road pointed out by Xiao Jin, they went all the way down the river.

Sure enough, as Xiao Jin said, this road is very narrow, but fortunately, it runs along the river embankment. The road is relatively solid. The horses run past. Although the horses' hooves carry a lot of mud, they will not be trapped in it. It is difficult to extricate themselves. The speed can not be very fast. However, according to this journey, they should be able to rush back to the capital before the banquet.

In the evening, it really began to rain again outside. At first, the rain was not dense, and the raindrops were relatively large, but after a while, the rain became heavier and heavier.

Wei ruoyi they left in a hurry. They only remembered to bring dry food and water, but forgot to bring coir raincoat.

Xiao Jin took out the coir raincoat hanging behind the horse's back, handed it to Wei Ruo and put it on her.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Xiao Jin, Wei Geng and Wei Xin were all wet immediately. Even if Wei Ruo was wearing a coir raincoat, the rain hung from the hat of the coir raincoat, which blurred her vision.

"Find a place to have a rest for a while." Wei ruoyi said loudly. The rain is loud and the voice is low. Others may not be able to hear clearly.

"Good." Xiao Jin's body became more and more heavy. He shook his head hard, threw away the rain hanging in front of him, and said in a deep voice.

Seeing that it's going to be dark and it's raining so hard, it's not appropriate to continue on the road.

Wei Xin drove his horse forward to explore the way. Before long, he turned around and came back, "Your Highness, there is a village ahead. We can go to the village for lodging."

"Then go." Wei ruoyi nodded.

Four men headed for the village.

Wei Xin knocked on a farmer's house, which seemed to be relatively neat and clean. He explained the situation to the people and gave back the money. The farmers enthusiastically let them in.

This family should be relatively rich in the village. It has a large yard, three large tile roofed houses and two ear chambers outside.

The homeowner is a young couple, with a pair of children under his knees. His son is a little older, looks five or six years old, and his daughter is a little younger, still in swaddling clothes.

The couple cleaned up two ear rooms and a tile roofed house for four people. At night, Wei ruoyi lived in the tile roofed house. Xiao Jin lived in an ear room, while Wei Xin and Wei Geng crowded one.

"Ouch, are you all wet?" the farmer, whose surname is Zhang and Mingbo, saw that the three people were all wet, so he hurriedly asked them to burn hot water. "I'll burn some hot water for you and wipe it first. Now the spring rain is bitter cold. Don't freeze it. I'll cut some ginger and burn some ginger tea to keep you away from the cold."

"Can you lend us some clothes to change?" Xiao Jin stopped Zhang Bo and asked.

"Yes, yes. I have several sets of clothes. As long as you don't dislike them, I'll get them for you." Zhang Bo nodded hurriedly. "I'll ask my daughter-in-law to kill the chicken and boil some more chicken soup for you."

Wei Xin gave enough silver, not to mention killing chickens, but killing pigs in the backyard. The silver was more than enough.

"Girl, this is my dress. I see that your skirt hem is wet, so I'll change it first. I'll take an iron to dry the wet place for you later." Zhang Bo's also took out a suit of dress and handed it to Wei Ruo.

The rain outside was so heavy that even Wei Ruo was wearing a coir raincoat, and his skirt was soaked. Standing in the room, the corner of his skirt was still dripping downward.

"I'm a little tired. Go and have a rest first." Xiao Jin said with clean clothes, and then pushed the door to the ear room.

He felt terrible all over and his head was bulging. It seemed that something was going to drill out of his temple. The whole front of his head was sore.

In order to come out and find Wei ruoyi, he has been sleepless, and he has cleaned up all his official business in two days. On the road, he is moving forward in the rain. Even Xiao Jin, who is always very strong, can't resist this toss.

Just then, he was drenched in another bitter spring rain, and he felt that his steps were a little vain.

After entering the room, he held the door frame and gasped deeply.

He didn't want Wei ruoyi to see that he was ill.

Holding the door frame to rest for a moment, he walked heavily to the table and sat down, with unspeakable pain all over his body, as if every joint was facing out.

He worked silently to make his limbs not as stiff and cold as just now.

Zhang Bo's hot water was delivered quickly. Xiao Jin stripped all her wet clothes and wiped them with hot water, but her whole body was still uncomfortable and tight.

The skin seemed to burn again like a fire, but there was a cold air spreading out from the inside of the body. Between the heat and the cold, people wilted a little.

Xiao Jin lay in bed and didn't want to move half a finger anymore.

He fell into a deep sleep.

Zhang Bo cooked ginger tea and brought it to Xiao Jin. He called the door outside.

Wei ruoyi happened to change his clothes and came out. "He didn't open the door?" Wei ruoyi asked curiously when he saw Zhang Bo standing in front of Xiao Jin's house.

"Yes. Girl, I sent ginger tea to the childe inside. I called several times. I didn't answer." Zhang Bo said.

"Give it to me." Wei ruoyi took the bowl and just wanted to knock on the door, the door slowly opened from inside.
