　　It wasn't until the last ray of light on the horizon dissipated that Shi Tang found a place to rest.

　　When Wei Chengze woke up earlier, Shi Tang had already noticed the movement in the carriage, but Wei Chengze didn't make a sound, so he pretended not to notice.

　　Being brought to a place like this without a word, no matter who it was, it was impossible for him to complain without complaint. Shitang was already prepared to face Wei Chengze's questioning. However, to his surprise, Wei Chengze never mentioned this matter from the beginning to the end. Even when Shitang chose such an out-of-the-way place to spend the night, he didn't reveal anything obvious. Emotions. Only when he saw Shitang taking out the medicine jar and starting to boil the medicine, he frowned slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything more.

　　Wei Chengze was a little too quiet.

　　While Shitang was boiling the medicine, Wei Chengze sat silently aside, staring into the distance in ecstasy. The smile that usually hung on his face was gone, and he looked like an exquisite and perfect doll.

　　Dinner consisted of dry food that Shitang had prepared early in the morning, as well as some cakes taken from the house. In such a scene, it really seemed a bit desolate.

　　Because the ground was covered with snow, it was clearly nighttime, but there was still an illusion of openness. The ruts and marks of horseshoes were particularly conspicuous on the snow. Shitang looked at them for a while and then looked away.

　　After half a day's journey tomorrow, we can turn onto the official road outside Nancheng. By then there will be more carriages on the road, and the traces they leave will not be so obvious.

　　In fact, Shitang knew very well in his heart that if he waited for a while, until Wei Chengze recovered, and until the snow on the ground melted, it would be much easier for him to take Wei Chengze away. But for some reason, whenever he thought about letting Wei Chengze stay there for so long, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable anxiety in his heart, as if if he didn't act sooner, something would happen. Other things happen the same.

　　As someone who had almost lost his life several times on the battlefield, Shitang was still convinced of his intuition.

　　The sky after the snow is extraordinarily clear and dusty, as if a bright mirror has been wiped away from the thick dust. The twinkling stars make people indulge in it unconsciously.

　　There was no wind, and the rich smell of the soup poured into the nose. Wei Chengze took the medicine bowl from Shitang's hand simply this time. He did not try to cheat as usual, and was unusually obedient.

　　If he doesn't get well soon, it will definitely slow down the rest of the journey, and he might even be caught up by Fang Shaoyuan because of him.

　　In any case, it was for him that Shi Tang would do something close to betrayal. Since there is no room for regret now, Wei Chengze must at least stop dragging Shi Tang down.

　　Shi Tang looked at Wei Chengze, who frowned tightly because of the bitter concoction, and moved his lips as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he took the empty medicine bowl in silence. Went aside to clean.

　　He was never good at explaining anything, let alone how to express his ideas better.

　　Such people are most easily misunderstood and taken advantage of in interactions.

　　Wei Chengze looked away and hid the smile on his lips.

　　The medicine he drank before had a soothing effect. After sitting for a while, Wei Chengze felt sleepy uncontrollably, and fell asleep wrapped in mink fur.

　　Shitang did not get into the carriage, but stayed outside all night. When he was marching, he suffered all kinds of hardships, and this situation was nothing to him.

　　The two of them continued to walk like this. If they happened to come across a town, they would find an inn to stay. If not, they would survive the night in the wild. Although this carriage is small, Shitang has prepared quite a few things. Apart from being a little narrow, it is not much colder than those in those small inns.

　　However, Wei Chengze's body was already cold and could not fully recover. The journey was bumpy and tiring. Even though he drank the medicine prepared by Shitang on time every day, he still fell ill on the eleventh day. .

　　The fever started quickly, and after a while, Wei Chengze started talking nonsense, muttering someone's name.

　　Shitang rushed into a medical clinic with Wei Chengze, who was unconscious, and almost kicked down the door.

　　It is absolutely impossible to continue on the road. You must know that in this era, even the simplest cold can kill people if they are not treated in time. Shitang did not dare to take the gamble and could only find a soothing one. place to temporarily settle Wei Chengze.

　　Fortunately, the doctors at that medical center were very skilled in medicine. After a few doses of medicine, Wei Chengze's condition improved a lot. Just this delay increased the chance of being found by Fang Shaoyuan. Even if Wei Chengze had recovered from his fever, Shi Tang would not dare to take him on the road as before.

　　After all, Wei Chengze was not him. If he continued to rush like this without any care, Wei Chengze might really be killed.

　　It was only then that Shitang really regretted it. If he had known earlier, he should have waited a little longer, at least until Wei Chengze recovered his health before leaving.

　　But by now, it's too late to say these things.

　　People in uniforms surrounded him, the weapons in their hands glowed with cold light, pointing straight at him, not giving him any chance to escape.

　　After all, Fang Shaoyuan is the number one person under the emperor today, and the power under his command is beyond the reach of ordinary people. All it takes is an order from him, and there are plenty of people willing to sacrifice their lives for him.

　　Even once, he was one of those people.

　　The development of worldly affairs is always so unexpected, isn't it?
