Ran Xiaoyu returned the clothes to him and said, "Sir, go back earlier. If it's too late today, it's almost time to close the palace gate. I'll have to return to the palace sooner."

After saying that, he turned around and ran away.

Xu Shifeng stood there, looking at the back of Ran Xiaoyu leaving in the wind and snow.

After a long time, I sighed softly, looked down at the clothes in my hand, then turned around silently and walked towards my home.

It's completely dark.

Although I usually know that Xu Shifeng often stayed in the palace for some major events before returning late, today, Xu Shizong sat in the lobby, looking at the snow outside the window, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, and waiting quietly.

I coughed twice from time to time.

His wife Gu stood aside and whispered: "Husband, my uncle may not be able to come back later."

“…”

"You'd better go back and rest."

Xu Shizong said lightly: "I'll sit here, you go and rest."

Although he was sick, he was not weak in speaking and doing things. No one could force him since he was a child. On the contrary, everyone almost obeyed his words.

Gu could not do so, so he could only sigh lightly and turn and leave.

Xu Shizong stayed alone in the lobby, and the snow outside was swelling, making him even more anxious.

Finally, in the quiet night, I heard the familiar footsteps approaching from outside, but it seemed to be a little heavier than usual.

Xu Shizong raised his head and saw his younger brother, Xu Shifeng walked into the lobby.

But, he opened his eyes wide.

It was cold outside and snow was falling. Everyone took out the thickest clothes. Even he, who was too weak, wore a thick fox fur, but his younger brother, who was obviously wearing a coat, was now holding the coat on his arm, and he was only wearing a jacket.

A thin layer of snow accumulates above the head and shoulders.

"What's wrong with you?"

Xu Shifeng was still a little distracted. He walked into the lobby slowly and heard the sound of his elder brother in a stern tone coming from front.

When he looked up, Xu Shizong frowned, stood in front of him, looking up and down.

Xu Shifeng felt as if he was so excited that he looked down and saw that his body was covered with snow foam, and the hem of his clothes was stained with a lot of mud, and his hands and feet were frozen cold.

The ground dragon burned in the room. As the heat and heat were so hot, he immediately sneezes.

"Ah Yeh!"

"Have you caught a cold?"

Xu Shizong shook his head, and said sideways with his hands behind his back, "Come in and warm up quickly and have someone bring you hot water."

After a few words of instructions, someone came to serve him immediately.

Xu Shifeng washed his face with hot water, took a little coldness, drank another cup of hot tea, and finally recovered a little. He handed over the heavy cloth bag in his hand and said, "Brother, this is the book you want."

Xu Shizong took it, but didn't look at it, just put it on the table, then frowned and looked at him: "What's wrong with you? You went out wearing big clothes, but came back with your clothes."

"I……"

Xu Shifeng smiled bitterly.

He himself didn't know why, but after walking all the way, he really didn't feel cold.

In his eyes and in his mind, Ran Xiaoyu's back was constantly emerging.

Just this thought made him feel a little lost.
