Yu Yan's lips tightly pursed, and strongly tilted her head, unwilling to let her lips land on her.

"If he can, why can't I? Do you like him? "I heard that he can make you cry on the bed …" His tone began to grow impatient.

"Your Majesty, is there any meaning in saying these words? Are you deliberately humiliating me? " Yu Yan was furious, she pushed at his chest forcefully and glared at him.

I'm jealous!" "I hate myself for not coming earlier …" He took a deep breath and finally let go of her, saying in a low voice, "It's too late to say anything. Let's go, I'll take you to a new place to take a look, and I know you're bored. Today, I don't care about national affairs, I'll only accompany you to relax.

Yu Yan straightened her clothes and silently followed behind him.

She wanted to walk around every day and find out if there was any other way down the hill.

The mountain path was serene and serene, with clouds and mist swirling around it. He was just a few steps away from being seen. In the thick fog, the faint sound of rustling birds could be heard as they passed by.

Initially, Yu Yan was still a little nervous, but after seeing a large expanse of red fruit forest gradually appearing in front of him, she relaxed.

"Have a taste of this?" He reached for a fruit, wiped it with dewy water, and handed it to her.

Yu Yan looked at the red wild fruit and felt that it was a little familiar. This, wasn't it the wild fruit that Chen Yao picked back then? Didn't you say that it was rather rare? There was actually such a large forest here!

She hesitated for a moment, then took a bite. Her first taste was slightly sour, and once it entered her throat, it became sweet and crisp. With a bite, the tip of her tongue was covered with this refreshing juice. It was very delicious.

No wonder Yulixiao liked to eat!

"Like it?"

Seeing her relaxed expression, Yu Tianqi smiled.

Actually, he and Yulixiao were really brothers, and they had similar characters, especially regarding the attitude towards women. But these two people were a little different. If Yulixiao liked them, he would definitely make a move, but Yu Tianqi just watched from the side for many reasons.

Yulixiao's way of doing things was, after all, a bit more domineering.

"Slow down." He lifted the brocade handkerchief and dabbed the juice from her lips, smiling.

"Mistress." The figure of a guard appeared in the fog but didn't approach. He only called out to him in a low voice.

"I'll be right back." He passed the handkerchief to Yu Yan and turned to leave.

Yu Yan did not look at him. She stood quietly and alone under the wild crabapple tree.

As the thick fog gradually dispersed, the golden sunlight fell onto the Begonia fruits that were embedded in the trees. A magpie stopped at the branches, tilted its head, and began to sing.

"Want some?" Yu Yan spread open her palm and raised the fruit to the magpie's mouth.

The magpie turned his head to the left and right, flapping his wings as he flew away.

Yu Yan laughed and slowly walked forward.

This place was extremely remote, and all she could see was a path down the mountain. That road must be filled with traps and traps, and she couldn't go down. If Yu Tianqi was not completely confident, he would not make a move, and would only be able to fight for a few days.

Then, would Yulixiao win?

Yu Yan thought again, was she really hoping for him to win, or was she hoping that Yu Tianqi would win?

In truth, what did this have to do with her? No matter who won, it wasn't a good thing for her to sit on the dragon throne. Once she entered the palace, it would no longer be within the rules of the prince's mansion. Strict, strict, and comatose, each and every one of these things would cause her to die from the stuffiness and bloating of her chest.

Also, would Yulixiao be in danger? This thought was like a mad little deer that had hit Yu Yan's heart. She plucked a Begonia Fruit as the image of Chen Yao feeding him the fruit surfaced in her mind, making his laugh at himself uncontrollably. She really wanted to bring embarrassment to herself. Did she want to be like other women and feed him fruits?

Yu Yan's heart was in a mess. She had worked too hard walking in this world and she had always hoped that there would be a hero by her side. He would shield her with his strong body to prevent her from pretending to be a man.

She did not dare to take it. Yu Yan had never been timid in any way, and the only thing he did was this, and she did not dare to try it.

"Yu Yan."

Yu Tianqi found it again.

Yu Yan turned her head to look at him, and asked softly: "Are you not going to take care of national affairs?"

"You chased me away?" Yu Tianqi's eyes flashed as he stared at her and asked.

"What's the point of this nonsense?"

Yu Yan started to get impatient. She glanced at him, then began to pick the fruits and wrap them up with a handkerchief. She wanted to bring them back to eat.

"Do you feel bored?" Yu Tianqi picked a few and placed them on her handkerchief, asking her about them.

"What? You want to take me down the mountain?" Yu Yan turned and look at him.

"Can I take you to the palace?" he asked again, staring at her.

Yu Yan's heart sank... Had he succeeded?

Yu Tianqi looked at the panic and helplessness that flashed past her eyes, the smile on his face became shallow, then revealed a smile, and patted her shoulder:

"I won't let you enter the palace now to be bound by those rules. "It's cool here, but your body is weak. I didn't plan for you to stay here."

Yu Yan glanced at him, then carried the handkerchief filled with fruits and continued to walk, and asked softly: "Are these fruits the only fruits on this mountain, or are they all over the place?"

"Oh, this is called Begonia. It is very tricky, and it requires very high quality soil and rain water, so only this mountain has this kind of flower." Yu Tianqi laughed, and said casually.

That is to say, Chen Yao had also been to this mountain before? Yu Yan frowned. Was it Chen Yao and Yu Tianqi colluding? Impossible, Chen Yao likes Yulixiao. That means that she likes Yulixiao to the bones, so how can she help Yu Tianqi? Once Yulixiao found out that she had come into contact with Yu Tianqi privately, it would be a dead end, so Yulixiao would not let anyone who betrayed him go.

Maybe it was just a coincidence, but when she went into the mountain to gather herbs, Yu Tianqi's secret courtyard was built inside the mountain.

Yu Yan raised her head to look at the small road that had disappeared into the forest, not knowing how big the mountain was or how far it was. Suddenly, she felt a pain under her feet, and lowered her head to look, only to see a two finger-thick jade colored snake quickly swimming into the grass.

"Ah …"

She quickly threw away the fruit and pulled up her skirt. For the past few days, she had been feeling very hot and dry, so she decided to just leave her socks on and put on her green embroidered shoes to let the snake succeed. She bit her ankle, and two tiny teeth marks dripped with black and red blood.

"Sit down."

Yu Tianqi's face darkened, he pressed her down onto the thick tree trunk that had fallen on the side of the road for who knows how many years. Taking off her embroidered shoes, he used a small knife to lightly cut her wound, and used his finger to squeeze.

Yu Yan cried out lightly in pain, and quickly withdrew her leg.

Yu Tianqi held her leg tightly, raised his head and glanced at her, then said softly: "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

"It's a poisonous snake!" How could Yu Yan not be afraid? If one could walk and be bitten by a snake, why didn't they bite others? What kind of bad luck was this?

As soon as the words left his mouth, he bent his head down and sucked the wound that had been bitten by a snake.

Yu Yan was stunned.

"There is really no need to be afraid. It is just a viper. I am the Son of Heaven, and a viper should be afraid of me."

He tore the rich and auspicious cloud embroidered pouch from his belt, took out a small porcelain bottle about the size of a thumb, poured some cool medicine on her ankle and kneaded it with his fingers. Only then did he tear off the cloth from her skirt and tie it tightly around her ankle.

"Alright, I'll take you back and have someone take a look."

He carried Yu Yan in her arms and walked back without saying anything further.

The fruits that Yu Yan plucked fell to the ground, the dark red color rolling all over the place. After entering the grass, there were several small ladybugs that were alerted.

"This place is too quiet, and I rarely come here either. There are too many poisonous insects, snakes, and ants of the same species. It's best not to come here from now on. Let's just walk around in the Violet Bamboo Forest."

Yu Tianqi looked down at her with a gentle and loving expression.

Yu Yan frowned slightly and turned her head away. Yu Tianqi's sudden gentleness made her reject him a little, but also made her feel helpless. Just that, she never thought that Yu Tianqi would use her mouth to drink her snake blood, how could a man be willing to do this for a woman, and treat her with sincerity, right?

She didn't know if it was because of the viper or because he had applied medicine on her ankle, but after ten steps, she started to feel drowsy. After taking a few more steps, her vision went dark and she completely lost consciousness …

Yu Tianqi retracted his arm, allowing her to stay close to him as a sharp light flashed past his eyes.

"Mistress." The sound of light footsteps came from behind the tree. The guard from before quickly walked out and cupped his fists towards him.

"Bring that snake back." Yu Tianqi said in a low voice as he quickened his pace.

The guard replied as he walked towards the place where the snake had previously appeared in large strides. Under the tree, he took out a brown bamboo whistle that blew four times, and a green snake swam out and wrapped itself around his legs. He picked up the snake, put it into the bamboo tube he carried with him, and quickly followed Yu Tianqi's footsteps.

Yu Tianqi entered the room and placed Yu Yan on the bed. He looked down at her for a while, then couldn't resist stroking her forehead and said softly, "I want the world, your heart, everything. I want you to first sleep for two days, then when you fall asleep, I won't think about all sorts of things.

"Mistress, it really is time to leave."

The guard outside the door urged again.

Yu Tianqi then put down the green cloth, glanced at the servants waiting outside and said softly: "Treat her well. If she wakes up, tell his that we helped her absorb the snake venom and then went back to the palace to recuperate."

"Yes." The servants outside hurriedly knelt down, respectfully replying.

Yu Tianqi turned his head to look at her again. Seeing her blushing red cheeks and his unparalleled beauty, he couldn't help but lift the green cloth covering her face and kiss her lips. Then, he moved closer to her ear and said: "I'm waiting for you to take the initiative and undress me.

Everyday, he would send people to search around the city for the reason of finding assassins, but he would only stay in the study room to read books, listen to Qiu Xuanling sing a song, and play the zither.

What was rare was that he was actually willing to be served by Ye Sujian. This was something that Qiu Xuanling strongly recommended him to do.

Ye Sujian's singing and singing could not be compared to Qiu Xuanling's, and the zither could not be compared to Ye Mingyue's. Since she was young, she had learned the Way of Tea, and every single type of tea brewing method was well memorized. Every day, she would brew tea for Yulixiao, causing him to give her some warmth.

Ye Sujian knelt beside his legs and used the teapot to fill a bowl of clear tea water. She handed it over to him with a gentle and respectful expression, and with her red lips slightly opened, she said softly: "Your highness, please have some tea."

Yulixiao accepted the bowl of tea with one hand, took a light sip, and placed it beside him.

"Your highness, we're preparing to enter the palace. Why don't you change your clothes?" Chen Yao walked over, put a hand on his shoulder and asked softly.

"Finish this bowl of tea." Yulixiao said lightly.

Chen Yao tamed her and retreated to the side, preparing the silk-clothes and high boots that she needed to wear for the palace banquet. The monthly royal assembly had already begun, but he was still drinking tea in her residence.

Since he was going back to the capital this time, he didn't have anything to do with the rules. It was common for people to go to the morning court for no reason, and even if they went, it was common for them to suddenly run away midway.
