Hearing this, Huo Wujiu grunted and put the wine cup back on the table. He frowned and picked up some food with his chopsticks to suppress the bitterness.
Huo Yuyan pretended to be concerned and said, "It's my fault. Someone come and change the wine on the table. Wujiu is here, so why is this medicinal wine still on the table? "
He looked like he wanted to accompany Huo Wujiu to change the medicinal wine.
Huo Wujiu raised his hand and pressed down on the wine pot.
"Forget it." He looked at Huo Yuyan indifferently as if he didn't see through his act. "You're not in good health, so you can drink this."
"But …" Huo Yuyan still had a guilty look on his face.
"It's fine." Huo Wujiu couldn't be bothered to argue with him about this, so he went along with his words. "But what's wrong with you these past few days? I remember that you were still able to drink when you first arrived. "
Huo Yuyan thought, 'He's taken the bait.'
He showed a gentle and tolerant expression, but it was obvious that he had a story. He smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing. I've just been a little tired these past few days."
Huo Wujiu grunted and pretended not to understand. He said, "The matters of the imperial court are indeed tiring. It's fine. Since it's like this, you don't have to force yourself to help me in the future. I can handle it myself. "
Huo Yuyan's expression froze, and he hurriedly tried to explain.
However, the little eunuch behind him was quick-witted. When he heard this, he showed an indignant expression and said, "The matters of the imperial court aren't tiring at all! It's obvious that someone in the imperial study is causing trouble and deliberately making the Crown Prince uneasy! "
Huo Wujiu raised his eyebrows and was about to speak when Huo Yuyan interrupted the little eunuch and reprimanded him in a low voice, "You talk too much."
The little eunuch shut his mouth embarrassedly, but his face was full of dissatisfaction.
Huo Wujiu thought, 'Alright, that's good. There's even a partner in this act.'
He frowned and asked, "What do you mean? Who's causing trouble?"
His tone was rather serious, as if he had heard something terrible.
Huo Yuyan lowered his eyebrows.
"It's nothing," he said with a smile. "Prince Jing lives like a prince and likes to cause trouble. As his elder brother, I should be more tolerant."
Huo Wujiu frowned and asked, "Did he mess around with you?"
Huo Yuyan smiled faintly and did not say anything.
However, the eunuch behind him added fuel to the fire and said, "That's true! For the past few days, Imperial Prince Jing had been lazing around in the imperial study. No matter what the crown prince did, he would interfere. However, he doesn't know anything and messes up the affairs of the court. This servant can't stand it anymore, but Your Highness the Crown Prince is still protecting him! "
Huo Yuyan said in a low voice, "I can't control you anymore, right? You're becoming more talkative. "
The eunuch shut his mouth again.
"Alright, Wujiu, don't listen to his nonsense. It's nothing." Huo Yuyan looked at Huo Wujiu with a faint smile.
Huo Wujiu also seemed to be relieved.
"I thought it was something serious. Turns out it's really nothing," Huo Wujiu said.
Huo Yuyan was stunned. Huo Wujiu looked away and picked up a piece of mutton with his chopsticks.
"So it's just a small matter in the court. Then it's fine. Let him mess around. Anyway, there's no difference between those officials. It's the same no matter who they use. It's better to make him happy, "Huo Wujiu said carelessly.
Huo Yuyan did not say anything for a moment.
Huo Wujiu looked up at him.
"Hm? Big Brother, did I say something wrong? "
Huo Yuyan forced a flawless smile and picked up the wine cup on the table.
"You didn't say anything wrong," he said with a faint smile. "It's fine. Let's eat."
Huo Wujiu looked away and continued to eat the mutton on the table.
Huo Yuyan held his chopsticks, but he couldn't taste the food.
Honestly … he didn't expect that the person who deceived Huo Wujiu was not a good person. Even Huo Wujiu was a brainless fool who only knew how to fight.

When Huo Wujiu returned to the palace in Jiang Suizhou, it was raining outside the window.
He pushed open the door and entered. The warm smell of wine and mutton mixed with a faint smell of medicine came from his body.
Jiang Suizhou had just finished organizing the list of officials and was checking it. When he saw Huo Wujiu enter, he stood up and asked, "You're back? How was it? Did he say anything to you? "
Huo Wujiu laughed a few times and said carelessly, "I did. He didn't even dare to say it himself. He used the eunuch beside him to say it. He just sat there with an aggrieved look on his face. It was as if he invited me to listen to a two-man show. "
Jiang Suizhou was amused by him and laughed. "It really seems like something he would do. What about you? "
Huo Wujiu walked behind him and took the booklet from his hand. He held it in his hands and looked at it.
"What else can I do? Pretend to be King You of Zhou. My mind has been bewitched by you. Who cares what he said? "
There was no teasing in his tone. He said it in a serious manner, as if it were true.
Jiang Suizhou laughed and said, "If that's the case, then I can be a little more presumptuous. After all, the general is still partial to me, isn't that right?"
Huo Wujiu laughed as well. He flipped through the booklet in his hand as he laughed.
However, after flipping through a few pages, he felt that something was wrong. He frowned and tugged at his clothes. He suddenly felt that the room was a little warm after coming in from the rain. He wanted to walk to the window and open it to get some fresh air.
However, just as he placed his hand on the windowsill, he remembered that Jiang Suizhou was still in the room. He paused and pulled his hand back in annoyance.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Suizhou saw that he was acting strangely and asked.
"Nothing," Huo Wujiu said with a frown. "It's a little too cool outside. It makes the room seem very hot."
Jiang Suizhou was a little nervous. "You'll get a fever like this."
Huo Wujiu waved his hand and didn't take it to heart.
Who was he? How could he get a fever from a little rain?
However, Jiang Suizhou stood up and took the booklet from his hand.
"Go take a bath and sleep early," he said.
Huo Wujiu clicked his tongue.
If someone else had urged him like this, he would definitely have lost his temper. However, the person who said this was Jiang Suizhou. Although he didn't think it was necessary, when he met Jiang Suizhou's eyes, he still swallowed the rest of his words.
Forget it. Wasn't it just a bath? It wasn't anything troublesome.
He responded and leaned forward to kiss Jiang Suizhou twice. Then, he turned around and went to the bathroom at the back.
When he came back, Jiang Suizhou was already lying on the bed.
He climbed onto the bed with his body covered in water vapor. As soon as he leaned over, Jiang Suizhou felt a chill in his face. It was wrapped in thick water vapor.
It was obvious that Huo Wujiu had taken a cold shower.
Jiang Suizhou was about to say something when he saw Huo Wujiu, who had just laid down, take a deep breath. He lifted the thin blanket on his body and turned over to face Jiang Suizhou.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Suizhou met a pair of hot eyes.
"Don't you feel the heat?" As Huo Wujiu spoke, a deep frown appeared on his forehead.
At this moment, the rain outside the window was heavy and pitter-patter. Because of the rain, the weather was unusually cool. Jiang Suizhou even felt a little cold under the thin blanket.
"No." Jiang Suizhou was a little hesitant. He reached out and touched Huo Wujiu's arm.
His arm was firm and tight. His meridians crisscrossed and his muscles were well-defined. At this moment, his skin was covered with a layer of cool water vapor. However, the texture under the water vapor was steaming hot.
… It didn't seem like he was having a fever. Instead, it seemed like his blood was boiling.
Because it was summer, Jiang Suizhou's inner clothes were thin. At night, his clothes were even looser. He didn't notice that when he propped himself up, his collar loosened and revealed a porcelain white skin.
At the same time, his cold hand landed on Huo Wujiu's body again.
Huo Wujiu's eyes darkened.
This kind of scene was nothing under normal circumstances. He just had to endure it and it would pass. However, at this moment, it shook him and made him dizzy. Then, the hot air in his body seemed to have finally found the right direction and rushed down.
He was shocked and pulled Jiang Suizhou's hand away.
"Don't move." When he spoke again, his voice was a little hoarse.
Jiang Suizhou was stunned. When he saw his reaction, he immediately felt that something was wrong.
"What did you eat today?" He couldn't help but frown and ask.
Huo Wujiu frowned. "I didn't eat much. I ate at the military camp for lunch. At night, I went to Huo Yuyan's place … "
At this point, he paused and then cursed in a low voice.
"Huo Yuyan is really something." Huo Wujiu gritted his teeth and sat up.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Suizhou hurriedly asked.
"Today, the food I ate at his place was normal. It was that wine. He used it to nourish his body. "Huo Wujiu gritted his teeth and turned around to get off the bed. "I didn't expect that wine to have other uses. I was careless."
Jiang Suizhou immediately understood Huo Wujiu's words.
However, before he could come back to his senses, Huo Wujiu was already about to leave. He hurriedly asked, "Then where are you going now?"
Huo Wujiu said, "I'm going to take a shower again."
Jiang Suizhou hurriedly said, "Aren't you messing around? What's the use of taking a shower? This medicine is meant to nourish the internal organs. You'll get sick if you keep pressing down on the cold water. "
Huo Wujiu was a little annoyed.
"Then I'll sleep somewhere else," he said in a low voice. "If that doesn't work, I'll go out of the palace to ride a horse. If I stay here, I'm afraid something will happen."
Jiang Suizhou heard this and blurted out, "Nothing will happen. Li Changning said that my injuries are mostly healed, so there's nothing to be afraid of. "
After saying this, Jiang Suizhou felt that something was wrong.
These words sounded like an invitation.
He hurriedly shut his mouth and shut it tightly. But soon after, Huo Wujiu stopped.
He looked at Huo Wujiu's broad shoulders, paused, and then turned around.
"What did you say just now?" Huo Wujiu asked.
At this moment, he was already a little annoyed from the heat. Coupled with the strange movements in his lower body, his voice was hoarse. He sounded a little aggressive, as if he was ready to attack at any moment.
Jiang Suizhou paused. Looking at his sturdy figure, fear suddenly arose in his heart.
"… I said, why don't you sleep somewhere else first," he said in a low voice.
"What did Li Changning say to you? Why didn't he tell me?" Huo Wujiu didn't listen to him. He only grasped the main point in Jiang Suizhou's words. He turned around and looked at him.
Jiang Suizhou swallowed, and his voice weakened.
"Why would he tell you …" He was a little weak.
"He said that you're fine?" Huo Wujiu still didn't let go of that sentence.
Jiang Suizhou didn't say anything.
This time, Huo Wujiu turned around completely.
He saw Jiang Suizhou sitting on the bed with a thin blanket covering his legs. His robe was a little messy from lying down just now, but he didn't seem to notice. He only looked at Huo Wujiu with a pair of nervous eyes.
That pair of eyes, under the light, appeared to be wet.
Huo Wujiu felt as if the blood in his brain had been ignited.
The next moment, he felt a wet and hot sensation at the tip of his nose.
He raised his hand and touched it. It was bright red.
Huo Wujiu cursed under his breath for the second time that night.
"You …" Jiang Suizhou was dumbfounded.
Huo Wujiu raised his head and looked at him with blazing eyes. In the next moment, he raised his hand and wiped away the blood on his nose.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Huo Wujiu gritted his teeth and said in a low voice.
Then, without waiting for Jiang Suizhou's reply, he felt his vision blur.
He was pounced on by an extremely hungry tiger and was bitten on his throat.
