CH 86

Ever since Wanyan Xia had saved Su Yi's life, he had stopped residing in that shabby wooden structure by the side of the North Lake. Instead, Wanyan Xu had specially arranged for him to live in a small hall [1] to the side of the Garden of Merriment. One reason was that the locale made it more convenient for him to continue treating Su Yi's illness; another reason is that the two could be considered old comrades who shared a bond that was forged through shared trials and tribulations; to alleviate boredom they could enjoy conversing with each other.
