“Xiao Qi! Are you hurt?”
Yun Jiangli was startled by this sudden situation and hurried to help Yan Muning.
At this time, the little prince was still lying on the bed in the falling posture, motionless, thinking: There is no Xiao Qi, you have recognized the wrong person!
Yan Muning was numb.
It’s so embarrassing!
He was now wondering if he could still struggle a bit, like pretending to faint? Or… just pretending that he hadn’t woken up at all!
However, Yun Jiangli obviously did not understand the youth’s entangled state of mind. Seeing that the youth did not move after falling down and did not respond, he became anxious and turned the youth over to check if he was injured.
Fortunately, the place where he fell was not high and the bed was relatively soft, so the wound did not tear and bleed again, and there were no new injuries.
Yun Jiangli, who had no distractions in his mind, breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the little prince, who was being groped and examined by the big beauty’s cool hands, felt unwell.
He already had itchy skin, and it would have been fine if he couldn’t dodge it, but what was more important was that his heart, which had not been at peace the entire night, was beating wildly again.
The little prince thought that if there really was a restless little rabbit hidden under his chest, then at this moment, there must be a mad rabbit inside.
“No, no, I’m not…” Since he couldn’t avoid it anyway, the little prince simply grabbed the quilt and wrapped himself up.
After checking, Yun Jiangli saw that he really seemed to be fine, but he didn’t know why his face was so red. He gently probed the temperature of his forehead with the back of his hand and then pinched his wrist to check his pulse.
“You…” Just as he frowned and wanted to ask the youth about his heartbeat, he met a pair of round eyes that were watery, hazy, and evasive.
Yun Jiangli: “……”
What nonsense are you thinking about again?
Not wanting to expose the youth’s thoughts, Yun Jiangli only gently instructed: “You have to eat a lighter diet these days. You should sleep a little longer. I will go to boil the medicine…”
Having said that, he stood up, put on his outer robe, and walked out of the room.
The little prince’s mind was not here at the moment, he just nodded to whatever the big beauty said.
In fact, his head was buzzing so much that he didn’t hear a word he said, so naturally he didn’t notice that he paused for a moment and didn’t finish the half sentence.
.
It was not until Yun Jiangli had left the bedroom for a long time that Yan Muning came to his senses. He let out a long sigh and silently put his head into the quilt.
The little prince bit his fingertips, thinking about the things he just recalled in his dream again and again, and finally figured it out!
He actually fell in love with the big beauty!
Yan Muning: “!!”
Shocked.
After the initial surprise and bewilderment, Yan Muning began to savor the experience with great relish.
He has a good eye ah. He counted the big beauty’s advantages on his fingers: he is a skilled physician, a good cook, and he is kind and gentle…
The most important point is that he, who was famous for his beauty in the whole Dasheng, is worthy of the big beauty’s elegant and graceful appearance!
As for other things, family background is not important. He doesn’t care about those things anyway. He believes that his imperial brother will not care too much either. As long as it is a good family with a clean record, it will be fine.
The little prince finally figured it out. He didn’t want Yun Jiangli to enter Imperial Medical. What was the point of working with that bunch of old men?
He wants to take the big beauty home and make him his princess consort!
After thinking all this through, the tangled emotions in his heart naturally became clear, and everything had a reasonable explanation!
The little prince had a new goal in the current stage of his life, and he laughed happily under the quilt.
Then he thought of a new problem, pursed his lips and couldn’t laugh anymore. It was probably not convenient for him to reveal his identity as Prince An directly for the time being, what should he do?
After pulling at the tangled fur on the fox fur for a long time, Yan Muning finally figured it out: identity is not important!
If the big beauty really fell in love with him in the future, it would definitely not be because he was attracted by his status as a prince ah.
It must be because he is good enough that the big beauty likes him, so what does his status mean?
Besides, he is a decent man, and he certainly can’t do such a thing as use his status as a prince to oppress others or rob the men from the people.
If he has set his eyes on someone he loves, he must rely on his own abilities to kidnap, bah, bring them home as a bride!
Thinking of this, Yan Muning finally let go of the fox fur coat that had several tufts of fur plucked out and became more determined to find a princess for himself.
He believes that when the big beauty knows his identity in the future, he will definitely understand his good intentions at this time!
.
Yun Jiangli had no idea that in the short time he had spent decocting some medicine and preparing some porridge and side dishes, a certain bastard had already chosen him as his candidate for princess consort.
But when he returned to the room with the medicine and food, he saw that Yan Muning was not asleep but looked very energetic.
When those round eyes looked at him, they sparkled brightly and were full of anticipation and excitement.
How should he put it? He always feels that… that look in his eyes looks like he is extremely hungry?
Yun Jiangli, who failed to realize the other meaning in the youth’s eyes, handed him the medicine bowl as usual and was ready to start accepting the youth’s whining and bargaining and all kinds of tempers about the bitterness of the medicine.
Unexpectedly, Yan Muning took the medicine bowl, raised his head, and drank it happily!
His movements were bold and neat, without any pause or dragging, but after drinking it, the bitterness made his eyes red and his nose wrinkled.
Yun Jiangli: “?”
“I saw the wound on your hand. Does it hurt? Can I help you apply ointment?” The youth asked with tears in his eyes, holding the empty medicine bowl.
Yun Jiangli: “?”
When something is out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on. What is this little thing trying to do again?
“No need to apply ointment, it will heal on its own in two days.” Yun Jiangli couldn’t figure out the youth’s thoughts, so he just answered.
However, in the next few days, Yun Jiangli became more and more confused, with a row of question marks popping up in his mind every day.
Not to mention that the youth was always observing him secretly, and every time he caught his gaze, he would dodge and try to cover it up.
It just so happened that these past few days, in addition to changing the bandage on the wound, he also had to be given an acupuncture every day because of a rash.
Every time this happened, the youth would become extremely embarrassed, not only would his face and ears turn red, but he would even get so embarrassed that even his neck and chest would turn pink.
Yun Jiangli found it interesting and tried to tease him once, which resulted in the kitten becoming very angry.
The angry kitten buried himself in the quilt and almost starved to death.
Yun Jiangli, who was used to the cold and quiet life, had to clumsily learn how to please others for his occasional curiosity.
Since then, he just let him be. He didn’t tease or ask him questions. Just watching him is also quite entertaining.
.
“The rash has almost disappeared. You won’t need acupuncture tomorrow.”
Yun Jiangli sat beside the bed, carefully examining the youth’s rash, which had already subsided, with acupuncture needles ready in his hand.
The little prince nodded and poked the sleeping white sparrow with his fingertips.
He had been secretly observing for many days, thinking that he had to take the initiative, after all, he is his princess.
Otherwise, given the big beauty’s cold personality, how long will it take to get him home ah?
But he doesn’t have any experience at all, so he doesn’t know where to start.
It’s a little sad.
After struggling to dig out some clues from his memory and hesitating for a long time, Yan Muning finally spoke up bravely: “Physician Jiang…”
Yun Jiangli raised his eyes slightly and replied calmly, “What?”
“Um…how old are you this year?” Yun Jiangli was confused as to why the youth asked this, but he had nothing to hide either, so he answered in a low voice: “Twenty-three.”
Yan Muning swallowed and continued, “Then, then are you married?”
Yun Jiangli paused for a moment while holding the acupuncture needle in his hand. “No.”
Yan Muning waited anxiously for the next needle to be completed before he spoke again: “Then are you engaged?”
Yun Jiangli frowned: “No.”
Yan Muning took a deep breath: “Then… do you have a sweetheart?”
Yun Jiangli calmly finished the last acupuncture: “Neither is there.”
Seeing that the smile on the youth’s face was almost unable to be suppressed, Yun Jiangli estimated that he would have jumped up if he hadn’t had the needle stuck in his body.
After staring for a long time, he saw the youth’s face changing with joy. He couldn’t help but ask in confusion, “Why… are you asking me these questions?”
The happy little prince began to talk nonsense in a serious tone: “Well, it seems that we have known each other for such a long time, and we have been together day and night and even slept on the same pillow. We should know each other better!”
Yun Jiangli: He shouldn’t be curious.
.
Ever since that time, Yan Muning would always come up with questions every now and then that made Yun Jiangli helpless.
Especially after his injuries gradually recovered and he was able to get out of bed and walk around occasionally, he became extremely energetic.
Even Yun Jiangli’s calm and peaceful personality could not help it, and he often wanted to give him an acupuncture to make him fall asleep so that he could at least have some peace of mind for a while.
It was just nightfall, and the sky was not yet completely dark, with only a few stars just beginning to emerge.
Yun Jiangli was leaning against the desk, reading a medical book.
Yan Muning sat on a narrow couch not far away with his back to him, fiddling with the chessboard and playing with the white sparrow.
“Pah—”
A soft sound came from the yard, hidden in the rustling of the night wind, so subtle that it was almost unnoticeable.
Yun Jiangli was the first to react, and his figure flashed to the window as light as a ghost.
Then Yan Muning seemed to have heard something. He sharply turned his head to look at the table, but found that the big beauty was no longer there.
His eyes followed the faint light to the window. There was no trace of laziness or tiredness on the big beauty’s face. Although he couldn’t see his eyes clearly, but he could feel the cold and powerful aura emanating from him.
Yun Jiangli made a gentle gesture to him, and the little prince understood.
While extinguishing the candle, the dagger was already in his hand.
The little prince took a deep breath and thought: What an opportunity!
Although the wound has not healed yet, but with his fighting ability, he thinks it will be no problem for him to beat up one or two little thieves!
Thinking of this, Yan Muning swiftly jumped down from the couch with the dagger in hand and stood in front of Yun Jiangli in one step, whispering to him in a comforting voice, “Don’t be afraid, just hide behind me, I will protect you!”
Yun Jiangli: “……”
A certain cold big beauty who can fight five people at once like a piece of cake and even ten people at once without any fear silently lowered his eyes to glance at the youth standing in front of him and silently put the soft sword that he had just pulled out an inch back, and seriously nodded in agreement.
“Alright, you protect me.”
