There was endless blackness in the dream. Bo Ruoyou stood in the misty forest, surrounded by shadows of treetops casting on the ground. The cold wind whistled, and the bone-bone cold made her froze in place. There was also the cry of the child echoing in the forest. She had a split headache and wanted to step forward, and the crisp bell sounded again-

The ringtone was like a spell that could not escape, and fear was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter to wrap Bo Ruoyou around. She raised her eyes to look at the dark night sky. Somehow, she only saw that the sky was getting farther and farther away from her, the trees became taller and the treetops became more and more out of reach. Her body began to tremble, and she subconsciously squatted down to hug her, but the ringtone was getting closer and closer, and there was a heavy footsteps coming...

"She's forehead is very hot." Cheng Yunzhi spoke in a hoarse voice. "From the pulse and the representation, I felt the wind and cold. Now after hearing what the man said, I was stimulated again. The wind and cold... is not the most important thing-"

Looking at Bo Ruoyou who was sleeping with her eyes closed on the couch, Cheng Yunzhi felt full of care, but he stopped halfway through his words, which made Huo Weilou very worried, "What is the most important thing? Please tell me bluntly."

Cheng Yunzhi took a handkerchief to wipe Bo Ruoyou's sweat. Although she closed her eyes tightly, her eyelashes were trembling slightly, which showed that she was very uncomfortable. Perhaps she was having a nightmare. Cheng Yunzhi's sweaty hands were trembling, and the corners of her lips were tightly pursed, but she still had no response.

Huo Weilou was heartbroken, "Do you don't believe me?"

Cheng Yunzhi paused and sighed long, "How could I not believe in the Marquis? Otherwise, I would not have told the Marquis about Lan Zhou that year. Youyou and Lan Zhou were in danger together, and no one knew what happened that night, but since then, she has been ill for more than half a year, and her illness is not as simple as being frightened by high fever-"

Cheng Yunzhi looked at Bo Ruoyou with pity, "At that time, she was unconscious and often fell asleep like this. She either cried all day long or didn't speak for a few days. Once she spoke, she was talking nonsense. She rarely felt awake, and even her parents couldn't recognize her. She..."

A dull pain spread from Huo Weilou's heart. He went to see Bo Ruoyou's face full of cold sweat. He could hardly imagine the five-year-old girl suffering from this disease. Even though Cheng Yunzhi didn't understand it so clearly, his mother had been sick for many years and could not understand such similar symptoms. To put it bluntly, Bo Ruoyou, who was five years old, suffered from crazy diseases.

He looked at Bo Ruoyou, as if through this beautiful face of Qingyan, he saw her thirteen years ago. "When Mr. Cheng treated his mother, he said that he had cured similar patients in the past. Is this patient you cured? "

Cheng Yunzhi didn't want to mention it anymore, and he had to respond at this moment, "Yes."

Huo Weilou's pupils shrank suddenly, and Cheng Yunzhi continued: "It's because of this that everyone in the Bo family said that she was surrounded by water ghosts and was entangled by evil things. Her father and mother had no way to seek medical treatment, and even asked Taoist priests to invite monks, but it was useless. Later, they went to Luozhou, but there was an accident."

Cheng Yunzhi's voice became more and more hoarse as he spoke. "Later, I took her out of the capital and completely escaped from the surrounding influences. I never mentioned the Bo family's affairs and tried every means to treat her. This made her slowly improve. However, no one knew when such a disease would recur. Over the years, I have been reluctant to let her investigate the case of the child's murder. Until a case of a child born in Qingshan County was born in Qingshan County earlier, she went to help with the autopsy, but it was not affected. I felt a little relieved. This time she said that the child outside the city was murdered and his age was similar to when they were in danger. I felt inappropriate."

Huo Weilou had already told Cheng Yunzhi what he heard in the prison cell of the government office. Cheng Yunzhi said in a stern voice: "The murderer has been found, but if she is caused to relapse of her old illness, I would rather she never know the truth back then."

Huo Weilou didn't know how Bo Ruoyou grew up, but he heard what Cheng Yunzhi said, and he also knew that the period was very difficult. He also understood why Cheng Yunzhi was very nervous about her investigating this case. He never mentioned the accident of the young master of the Bo family for many years. His cold eyes were dark, "Since she was cured back then, she was so sad that she should not be sick again."

Cheng Yunzhi shook his head, "The Marquis doesn't know. In order to cure her, I specially studied this disease for several years. The chance of curing this disease is extremely small and it is very easy to recur. Sometimes it looks no different from ordinary people, but as long as the patient thinks about what makes her sick, he will fail."

Huo Weilou is so determined, why don’t he know what Cheng Yunzhi said is reasonable, but at this moment, he only wants to think about it. Cheng Yunzhi stood up and said, “No need to worry too much now. I will prescribe the prescription and boil the medicine. If it doesn’t work, I’m afraid I will have to apply an acupuncture.”

Huo Weilou responded quickly, and when Cheng Yunzhi left, he sat beside the bed and held Bo Ruoyou's hand.

At this moment, she closed her eyes tightly, but Huo Weilou could not forget the empty eyes half an hour ago. His knuckles were tightened, and he was afraid of hurting her. Looking at her frowning brow, he, who had always controlled everything, felt a little nervous at this moment.

He leaned into wiping her sweat, calling her softly, "Youyou--"

Bo Ruoyou seemed to be frightened, but he was shocked. Huo Weilou didn't dare to speak again, but the moment his hand touched Bo Ruoyou's forehead, Bo Ruoyou's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened.

She looked at Huo Weilou with cold sweat on her face, her eyes filled with tears and fear. The moment she saw Huo Weilou, tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes. She frowned in pain, and grabbed the quilt on her body with both hands, as if she was afraid that someone would lift it up.

Huo Weilou thought she was awake, so he couldn't help but approach, "Youyou--"

Bo Ruoyou trembled in fear. She pulled Jin quilt higher, blocking her cheeks, revealing only a pair of timid and fearful eyes. Huo Weilou paused with his bent waist - she was afraid of him!

Even though she had a nightmare, this was not what she should do in the face of her. Huo Weilou suddenly thought of the night when she was kidnapped. He was fixed and did not dare to speak. He only looked at Bo Ruoyou's eyes. Although her eyes were soaring, her pupils were dissipated and she did not recognize him. He held his breath for a long time. Just when he was worried that he wanted to call Cheng Yunzhi, Bo Ruoyou sobbed and closed his eyes.

Her hand holding the quilt tightly released, her head slightly tilted to the inside, and she returned to her drowsy look.

Huo Weilou pulled down the brocade quilt that was covering her nose, and his heart became heavier and heavier. He didn't know that Bo Ruoyou had such a disease when he was young. Seeing her strange behavior at that time, he only felt that she was frightened and nightmare. At present, he felt that Cheng Yunzhi's worries were very likely to come true.

He watched the eldest princess seriously ill for many years. Now that he thought that Bo Ruoyou would also suffer from the pain again, he felt that his five internal organs were burned. He took a deep breath and tucked the horns of Bo Ruoyou and waited for Cheng Yunzhi to come back.

Cheng Yunzhi came back with a medicine bowl. Huo Weilou told Bo Ruoyou strangely. Cheng Yunzhi suddenly changed his face, and went to ask for his pulse and checked it out for a while. After saying, "I still have to wait for her to wake up."

Cheng Yunzhi fed Bo Ruoyou medicine. After he finished feeding, he could only wait. It was almost dusk. Although the snow outside stopped, the sky became darker again. Clouds were piled up in the sky. It seemed that snow was about to fall at night. At this moment, the door of Cheng's house was knocked.

Zhou Liang quickly walked to open the door, but saw that Ming Guilan and Wu Xiang came, and they welcomed them into the door and walked all the way to Bo Ruoyou's yard. Cheng Yunzhi and Huo Weilou learned that they were getting and going, but they were not as good as going to the main hall, and only received the two in Bo Ruoyou's warm pavilion.

Ming Guilan ordered the attendant to take off the fox fur cloak from his shoulders and asked, "How is Miss Bo?"

Cheng Yunzhi sighed: "It's a long story, but it's not very good now."

Wu Xiang immediately said: "Why is this? She said she had been ill before and forgot about the incident that year. She just heard the murderer's confession, but remembered whether the incident that year would have happened?"

Cheng Yunzhi said bitterly: "It's not the case. She is now infected with cold and her previous illness has been a hidden danger in recent years. Now she has been suffering from hearing the old news."

Ming Guilan hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Cheng, did my father treat Miss Bo before?"

Cheng Yunzhi nodded, "I did see it."

"My father just remembered it." Ming Guilan's face was solemn, "He said... Miss Bo's illness was quite difficult to treat, but he didn't expect that Mr. Cheng would cure her later."

Cheng Yunzhi was unwilling to say much, "Most of it was due to leaving the capital, and she was still in poor health."

Huo Weilou looked at Wu Xiang at this time: "How did the murderer tell him?"

Wu Xiang hurriedly said, "It's all my confession. Just now, Mr. Ming also read the evidence and said it was almost the same as that year. In addition, he also explained four cases in the past ten years. In addition, Mr. Bo and Wen Jin, there were a total of six boys who were murdered by him. The details in the yamen are still continuing to be interrogated. From tomorrow, he will take him to identify the place where the crime happened to see if more people can be found. The family of the murdered boy also needs to take time to contact him and wait until there are no mistakes before the case can be concluded."

The yamen has its own yamen's constitution, and Huo Weilou was relieved of Wu Xiang, but he thought of a place, "He took their siblings away, and then his sister escaped from danger. He was never afraid after that?"

Wu Xiang said lightly. The murderer committed a lot of crimes, and he looked like he was not in the process of being honest but confessed. He had found a lot of truths today. He only focused on digesting the records and had not yet found doubts. "I haven't asked this place yet, but I have asked Xiao Hu. Xiao Hu said that the yamen officer who handled the young master's case mentioned that Xiao Bo was seriously ill at that time, and everyone in the yamen who handled the case knew that, perhaps the murderer also knew, either Xiao Bo had not seen the murderer's face, so he was fearless."

Li Shen knew that his deadline was approaching and he was fearless and without any concealment. However, the brothers and brothers he took away were murdered by sacrifices, but his sister escaped. Any murderer would be afraid that the escaped girl would talk nonsense.

But Li Shen did not mention the subsequent taboos for this sister.

Huo Weilou felt that it was inappropriate, but Wu Xiang's explanation made sense, so he just said, "I will be interrogated here."

Wu Xiang responded, and Ming Guilan said again: "Mr. Cheng is very good at medical skills, but if Miss Bo's disease is difficult to diagnose and treat, I can help you with my father."

"Okay, you guys are intent."

Bo Ruoyou was sick, and Wu Xiang and the other two didn't stay for a long time. As soon as they said goodbye, they left, and the aunt who was guarding Bo Ruoyou came out of Bo Ruoyou's boudoir, "Master, Marquis, Miss, wake up--"

Huo Weilou and Cheng Yunzhi hurriedly went to see and entered the inner room. Bo Ruoyou woke up. She was still lying on her face, looking sick. When she saw the two appear, she said hoarsely: "I don't know when I got the cold."

Cheng Yunzhi was full of worry, and at this moment he could only hide his feelings, "What am I saying? It's been cold these days, and you're running back and forth, how can you not be sick?"

"It made the adoptive father worried." Bo Ruoyou was sick and had less energy, and his voice became softer and softer. After speaking, he went to see Huo Weilou again, "It also made the Marquis worry."

Huo Weilou stood beside the bed, "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Bo Ruoyou didn't hide it, "I felt sore and weak on my body, my forehead was a little painful, and my throat was also painful. There was no other way. I will be cured after taking the adoptive father's prescription in two days."

Cheng Yunzhi asked for a pulse and asked carefully: "Do you feel that the mind is in chaos and can't remember the matter?"

Bo Ruoyou looked at the two people with serious expressions inexplicably, "This is not the case. The adoptive father doesn't have to worry. It was because of the wind and cold and the fatigue these two days that he suddenly couldn't hold on. There was nothing wrong with it."

After saying that, Bo Ruoyou looked at the door, "Aunt Liang said, are Captain Wu and Young Master Ming visiting?"

Huo Weilou nodded, "I've left, I'm here to visit you."

Bo Ruoyou pursed the corners of her lips tightly, and she was silent for a moment. Obviously, she still remembered what happened earlier, "Can the murderer be finished?"

Huo Weilou repeated Wu Xiang's words, "There are Wu Xiang and Sun Zhao in the yamen, you don't have to worry. You will have good health in the past two days. If you have news from the yamen, I'll tell you."

Bo Ruoyou's outer robe took off, and the silk-like black hair spread all over the pillow, which made her pale face more and more. She looked at Cheng Yunzhi, "Do you know, do you know?"

She spoke with a sore nose, and Cheng Yunzhi nodded, "I understand, my adoptive father thinks you did the right thing. If you had not escaped that day, your father and mother would be heartbroken at that time."

A layer of mist floated from Bo Ruoyou's pupils, "If someone else is in danger, I dare not help, but... but I left my brother, he is only four years old..."

After saying that, she suddenly raised her hand and covered her eyes. Soon, a line of tears flowed down her cheeks. The tip of her nose thrust and sobbed slightly.

Cheng Yunzhi sighed, "Silly girl, no one will blame you. Instead, I feel glad that you shouldn't blame yourself. You must have wanted to take your younger brother with you, but the murderer is an adult man. When the two of them run together, where can they escape? And the murderer is just picking boys. How can you, a five-year-old girl, save him?"

Bo Ruoyou's hand was still covering his eyes, and Cheng Yunzhi said with heartache: "If you want to cry, you will cry. After you finish crying, your adoptive father will not allow you to think about this anymore. Now the murderer has been caught, which can be considered as avenging Lanzhou. We will go to his grave to burn incense another day, and this matter will be forgotten."

Bo Ruoyou was sober, which made Cheng Yun's heart very relaxed. Naturally, he only wanted to comfort Bo Ruoyou, and did not make her blame herself. Seeing Huo Weilou standing beside him without saying a word, he stood up and left a moment for the two of them, so that Huo Weilou could comfort her.

Huo Weilou first held her hand that was placed beside her. Bo Ruoyou felt something, but he still didn't put down his hand that fell on his eyes. Huo Weilou's pupils were slightly dark, and he leaned over to connect the quilt and pulled her into his arms. Bo Ruoyou buried her face on his shoulder, and a suppressed choking sound overflowed from her throat. Huo Weilou felt very distressed, and felt a hint of wetness on his neck, and like a needle in his heart was pricked.

"Don't blame yourself for seeing you like this, Mr. Cheng feels distressed."

Huo Weilou went to caress Bo Ruoyou's back, and her body shook more and more violently, and the whimpering sounds in her throat became louder. Not long after, more tears wet Huo Weilou's neck. He had never seen her cry when she was awake. Now the tears fell on his heart, making him feel painful.

Bo Ruoyou is not a person with a fragile mind. The self-blame that he held in his heart was much more transparent. After a while, she withdrew from Huo Weilou's arms. Huo Weilou hugged her and went to see her wet cheeks. He raised his hand and wiped it. He couldn't help but kiss her lightly twice, "Nightmare was crying just now, do you know?"

Bo Ruoyou shook his head, "I don't remember."

There was still a lot of sadness between her eyebrows and eyes. Huo Weilou was worried about seeing it. He thought she was still ill, so he wanted to put her down and lie down. But Bo Ruoyou thought he was leaving, so he hurriedly grabbed his hand, "Where are you going?"

Huo Weilou was stunned, then bent his lips and hugged the person steadily, "I won't go anywhere."

Bo Ruoyou felt relieved and leaned her cheek against his shoulder. When she was rarely so clingy, Huo Weilou could no longer suppress the worry and care in his heart. He couldn't help but kiss her cheek.

The kiss was gentle and delicate, and it had nothing to do with desire. It only poured all the feelings in his heart. He kissed her along the corner of her lips, nose, and face, and finally held her soft lips with a faint blood color and grinded her. The strong soothing meaning made Bo Ruoyou's heart tide and his eyelashes slightly wet. However, his panicked heart calmed down at this moment. Because of this closeness, there was a bit of blood on his pale cheeks.

Huo Weilou's kiss was like a spring breeze and rain to remove the haze in her heart. When Bo Ruoyou rarely saw him so meticulous and gentle, he kissed her several times between her eyebrows and said softly: "I will accompany you tonight." As he said that, he deliberately teased her, "And you don't have to go to the living yard tonight."

Although Bo Ruoyou had no strength to respond, he saw a little smile in his eyes. The two of them were warm for a moment. Cheng Yunzhi brought Aunt Liang to bring dinner. The medicine was fed by Cheng Yunzhi. Huo Weilou now fed Bo Ruoyou with some white porridge. Cheng Yunzhi felt that he was so thorough in treating Bo Ruoyou, and the more he felt relieved.

That night, Huo Weilou really didn't go to the guest yard again. He rested on the imperial concubine's couch in Bo Ruoyou's room, and couldn't stretch it out on the couch, so he sat next to Bo Ruoyou's bed. The cold wind was howling outside in the middle of the night, and heavy snow started again. Bo Ruoyou suddenly woke up. When he saw Huo Weilou still sitting by the bed, he closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

Huo Weilou did not return to the mansion for two nights, which made the Duke Huo's mansion know that Bo Ruoyou was sick. Early the next morning, Huo Qinghong and Eunuch Fu arrived at Cheng's house together. When Eunuch Fu saw Bo Ruoyou's sick look, tears burst into his eyes. Huo Qinghong felt even more strange. Bo Ruoyou was the least delicate little girl he had ever seen, so why was he so sick?

After a while of inquiry, Huo Qinghong sighed. When he came to Chengzhai to see Huo Weilou, he was not just visiting him. He is now in Taichang Temple and is concerned about official business. "Brother, nothing has been found in the palace yet. Wang Qingfu's wife and children are also obedient people. What should we do next?"

Huo Weilou has been with Bo Ruoyou for more than two days, but he has not left the promise. "The palace is tracing the palace maids, eunuchs and the imperial guards who have left the palace in the past five years, as well as those who have retired from Taichang Temple."

Huo Qinghong was surprised, "Every year, many palace maids and eunuchs leave the palace, and the imperial guards often change, and the same is true for Taichang Temple. How many people need to be investigated?"

"Investigating cases is an extremely labor-intensive task. Many clues and testimonies are all about finding needles in haystacks. Now I just hope to find the suspicious person. Don't let Shi Bai busy."

Huo Qinghong knew that there were still some disputes in this case, and he did not dare to be disgusted with Cheng Zhai for too long, so he quickly said goodbye and left.

Bo Ruoyou was ordered to recuperate in the mansion.

She rarely gets sick on weekdays, and once she falls ill this time, she is not as easy to recover as she thinks. In addition, the prescription prescription prescribed by Cheng Yunzhi is also used to warm and nourish the disease, so the disease will go away even more slowly. She knew that the truth was so guilty that she was no longer as good as before. She just took care of the disease and asked about the progress of the yamen every day.

Huo Weilou ordered Fu'an to find a maid to take care of Bo Ruoyou, and then accompanied Bo Ruoyou in Cheng's house for three days before entering the palace to meet the saint. Except for the first day Bo Ruoyou was quite distressed, she didn't show any more. It was just a disease that made her lose weight a lot.
To be continued...
