The small town was also very lively in the early morning. Zuo Xuan walked out of his room in the morning, stood in the yard, and could hear the shouts of boatmen from the river not far away, starting a new day of life.Looking towards the east, a few waterfowl were disturbed in the halo of the rising sun, flapping their wings and flying into the air.

Zuo Xuan always likes to look at these small scenes around him, observing their vivid existence.

When he was in Rui'an, he thought that he would live in Rui'an City for the rest of his life. From childhood to old age, he could only see every street in Rui'an City.Sometimes he would also be very envious of Pei Yi, traveling to the northwest, he could see scenery different from Rui'an along the way.He has no way of knowing whether the Northwest is really like the "solitary smoke in the desert, the sun setting in the long river" written in the book. He can only draw it in his mind with his superficial imagination.

Speaking of which, Zuo Xuan even wanted to thank Pei Yi for allowing him to get out of the cage he drew and see a different scenery besides Ryan.

It was also during this time that Zuo Xuan realized that even the sycamore trees were different in the outside world.Not every plant is like the one in Rui'an City, which is full of melancholy at a glance.

After Zuo Xuan washed up, he greeted everyone in the family with a relaxed mind and body, and sat at a table to have breakfast.

Three months have passed since Zuo Xuan came back.He recovered very well, and he turned back to his previous handsome appearance, the arrogant Zuojia Saburo in the eyes of everyone.The oil lamp that must be kept in the room every night was no longer lit, and the parents and brothers were also relieved, knowing that Zuo Xuan had really recovered this time.

Zuo Xuan is now unofficial and light, and often stays at home.Prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstones, splash some ink on them, sign them as "Thousand Gold Customers" at random, hang them in calligraphy and painting shops and sell them, and treat them as earning some small money to support the family.

To say that Zuo Sanlang is worthy of his superb painting skills, although there are not many people who know how to do it in Chixi, there are more people who can't understand but are still arty with a lot of money, which can be regarded as living up to the name of "thousands of gold".Even when Papa Zuo went out to play chess with his friends, he could hear the old men's praises, and Papa Zuo accepted all the compliments with both ears.But in his heart he was extremely melancholy, his such an excellent son had nothing to do with his official career, he could only live in this small town, maybe he would be like this in the future, he couldn't even tell his name to others.

Of course, Zuo Xuan wouldn't stay at home all the time, and would occasionally wander around the rivers and lakes with his second brother and Qiu Bie, experiencing that carefree life.

Sometimes I will go to Zhoucheng with my elder brother to see the environment where my elder brother is working.

There is a ten-year age difference between Zuo Xuan and his eldest brother, so his eldest brother has doted on him since he was a child.This time Zuo Xuan came back so skinny, although Brother Zuo didn't say anything, he was still dissatisfied with the emperor in his heart.

It's just that Zuo Xuan would not let his elder brother resign and return home because of this. On the contrary, he placed Zuo Xuan's expectations on his elder brother.

This day Zuo Xuan went to Zhoucheng again, and when he arrived at Brother Zuo's residence, Zuo Yin asked Zuo Xuan in a very serious tone, "Xiao Xuan, what's going on between you and the emperor?"

Zuo Xuan was stunned for a moment before realizing that the emperor was Pei Yi.He said indifferently, "It doesn't matter, it's just that he thinks I'm against the party."

Zuo Yin took a document from the desk and handed it to Zuo Xuan.

Zuo Xuan took it in doubt, opened it and saw that it was Pei Yi who had vindicated Zuo Xuan.It read between the lines that Zuo Xuan was an undercover agent at the beginning, but because the hidden danger was not eliminated, he pretended to enter the prison, and then escaped from his shell.Now that the general trend of the world has been determined, in order to avoid misunderstandings among the public, a letter was specially issued across the country to clarify for Zuo Xuan.

After Zuo Xuan finished reading the full text, he was still very calm, and only said "Oh" and nothing else.

He just felt that Pei Yi's behavior was meaningless. He was obviously the one who didn't want to know the truth and condemned him directly. After he had already caused irreparable harm to others, he exposed everything so lightly.It turns out that being an emperor is really such a cheap thing.

Simply now, he has no chance to meet Pei Yi, and it has nothing to do with him to be a monster in Rui'an City.Besides, after the document is issued, it will be more convenient for him in the future, at least he doesn't have to think of a fake name every time.He only hoped that Pei Yi could do something good in the position of emperor, at least he could be worthy of his desperate efforts to push him up in the past few years.

Zuo Xuan's life in the future will always be easy, but Pei Yi, who is thousands of miles away, must now be responsible for his mistakes.

A few days after chatting with Li Qu, Pei Yi received the title deed of Zuo Zhai into his hands, and then found another house to house his Li Aiqing.

The back and forth between the emperor and Li Chi made people in the court wonder if there was any treasure in this house that caused the emperor and his ministers to compete with each other.But no matter how curious the onlookers are, they can't spy on it. After all, the owner of the house is the emperor now, who dares to touch the emperor's bad luck.

On the afternoon when Li Qu moved his things away, Pei Yi quietly left the palace and went to Zuo Zhai.

He walked alone in the Zuo house, trying to recall Zuo Xuan's habits from the tiny details here.But to his disappointment, he had no thoughts at all.Because first of all, he couldn't bring in Zuo Xuan's image.During the hasty meeting five years ago, he hadn't looked at Zuo Xuan's appearance carefully at all, so Zuo Xuan, who is still in Pei Yi's memory now, still looks like a teenager.He didn't know what Zuo Xuan had grown up in the past few years that he hadn't seen, whether he was gentle, elegant and tall.

Pei Yi was thinking wildly, and went to the back kitchen.He wanted to turn around directly, but he caught a glimpse of it, which seemed to be a pile of medicine dregs.Who is this taking medicine?Pei Yi couldn't believe the bad guesses that popped up in his mind at the first time, but he still wrapped some medicine residues in a handkerchief and took them with him, hoping that the results of the imperial physician's examination would prove that he was just mediocre.

Pei Yi walked to the study room again. This was the second time he had entered this study room, and this time he could observe carefully.

He sat behind the desk, looked at the decorations on the desk, and wondered how much he had been moved by Li Ji, and whether he had put it back to its original place.Pei Yi opened the drawer casually, and saw a small locked box in the drawer, about the same size as his.He looked in the drawer again, and sure enough, he found that the key was randomly thrown in the corner.

He put the box on the table carefully, holding the key in his hand but never opening it.Pei Yi had a strong premonition that what he saw when he called this box would tell him many things.

In the end, the small box was opened, and the contents inside were the same as his one, all envelopes.

It's just that his box was full, but Zuo Xuan's didn't even arrive a third.

Pei Yi picked up the top one, and it turned out to be a reply letter he wrote to Zuo Xuan at some point.The second, third, fourth...every reply letter has been preserved intact.

When he finished counting, he never thought that his reply to Zuo Xuan was only so small.

But at that time I was very busy...

Yes, very busy.I always make excuses that I am very busy and have no time to reply, but Zuo Xuan is not busy?

After Pei Yi finished taking his reply letters, there were still a few letters at the bottom of the small box. When he picked them up, he realized that they were unsent letters from Zuo Xuan to him.

Pei Yi opened the envelope, as if he was talking to Zuo Xuan from many years ago.

——Pei Yi, are you very busy, why don't you reply?

——Are you okay in the northwest?did you miss me.You say it's useless to miss me, this young master won't miss you!

——When will you come back?Our sycamore trees have been taken over by others, come back and drive those children away!

——Why don’t you say a word?You have known me for so many years and didn't say I was annoying, but now you don't like it, do you?snort.

——Okay, okay, I lied to you, I miss you too.So... when are you coming back?

……

Pei Yi squeezed the letter, the paper was almost crushed by him.

Suddenly realized that his strength was too great, so he spread out the letter paper, felt it flat, and carefully put it back into the envelope.Then put all the letters back into the small box, locked it, and returned to the palace with the box expressionlessly.On the way, I still remember going to the imperial hospital first, and handing the medicine residues to the imperial physician.

After the morning court the next day, Pei Yi left Li Qu in the imperial study.After stepping away from the screen, Pei Yi took out the will and threw it in front of Li Qu.

"Tell me, whose handwriting is on it?"

The emperor's expression was so gloomy that water dripped out, but Li Qu was not timid, and leisurely picked up the edict, after all, he hadn't really read the edict.Holding it in his hand, he took a good look at Zuo Xuan's ink, and once again lamented Zuo Xuan's boldness.

"Your Majesty already has the answer in his heart, so why bother to ask me?"

"But the handwriting on the letter he sent me is not like this." The emperor even forgot to say that he was shocked.

"Your Majesty really doesn't understand? It's because you are afraid that the letter will fall into other people's hands and cause trouble to you, so you deliberately used different handwriting."

Does Pei Yi really understand? No, he just wants to hear it from others.

Pei Yichang sighed, "Tell me, tell me about your friendship."

Li Ju asked kindly: "Can Your Majesty still bear it?"

At this time, His Majesty the Emperor was extremely irritable, "Just say what you want!"

Li Chi told everything about Zuo Xuan and all the details of helping Pei Yi from the beginning.By the time he finished speaking, an hour had passed.

And His Majesty the Emperor sat on his Dragon Throne, obviously not slowing down.

After a long time, Pei Yi asked, "Do you know his birthday?"

At this time, Li Chi didn't know who to start feeling sorry for, so he only told him Zuo Xuan's birthday.

Originally, the day's affairs were over, Li Chiu was about to leave, but an imperial physician asked for an interview and told the emperor the usefulness of the medicinal residue.It was a medicine for treating pneumonia. The patient suffered from a cold and was not treated in time, and his condition worsened and turned into pneumonia.

Hearing this statement, Pei Yi looked at Li Chi.

Li Chao only said one sentence, "Your Majesty, that man was indeed picked up by the minister from the mass grave."

Then Li Qiu saluted and left. He didn't say that he left those medicine residues on purpose, but he didn't expect to be discovered by the emperor so soon. It seems that His Majesty is already full of remorse, which is really cool.
