"Let's go …" Gently he took hold of her small hand, hesitated, and said in a low voice, "Tomorrow is my birthday."

Yu Yan's eyes widened, and then she slowly narrowed them, as she obediently lowered her head.

"He became mute?" He angrily scratched the palm of her hand. After years of practicing martial arts, his fingers were covered with a layer of cocoons. The abrasion caused his palm to feel itchy.

"My throat hurts." Yu Yan said softly.

"In my opinion, aside from faking the stench, you should also add another item. It's the most custom-made item."

Yulixiao grabbed her hand, and pulled her out. When his throat was in pain, his voice was hoarse, how could it be so soft and gentle now?

Yu Yan's slender fingers drilled into the center of his palm. He thought that grabbing her would hurt, so she loosened her grip and those five slender fingers burrowed into the gaps of his fingers, holding them tightly with him.

Yulixiao's figure tensed up, his fingers bent and tightly held her hand. The two of them walked out of the courtyard one after the other, towards the moonlit streets.

After half a cup of tea had passed, Chen Yao slowly walked out from behind the thick banyan tree.

Chen Yao stood far away and watched the two of them hug each other. She had never had those feelings before.

The faint music shook in the night wind along with the leaves. At first, he thought he would cry, but his eyes were dry and fiery. He could only stare at the door that was lightly closed.

She had always known about his heart and heart in this world, and had always thought that as long as he accompanied her, it would be good. Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the capital, a woman called Yu Yan had already barged in with large strides, unrestrainedly pushing her away from him.

She couldn't blow on it anymore, so she smashed the leaves to pieces and threw them to the side. Then she used her legs to stomp on it until it was mud. Then she turned around and touched the tree with her forehead to ease her pain.

She could pretend to be indifferent in front of others, but when she was alone, she could never deceive her aching heart. Chen Yao almost could not hold her breath, she really wanted to take the long sword and stab it into Yu Yan's chest!

"Miss." A low, hoarse voice came from behind him.

Chen Yao closed her eyes, quickly wiping her face with her hands, and turned to look at the person.

He wore a bamboo hat that was half-pressed, revealing his dark, thin face.

"Sai Mi, why have you just arrived? An hour has passed. " Chen Yao frowned slightly as she asked unhappily.

"Here you go." Sai Mi took out a small cloth bag from his bosom and handed it over to her.

Chen Yao opened the cloth bag and saw a silver hairpin with green jade inlaid inside.

"What is it? What do I need your things for? " She frowned and threw the silver hairpin back, asking coldly.

Sai Mi returned the silver hairpin, raised his eyes and said in a low voice, "When using the Fine Bead Tempering Medicine, it will look no different from normal, there won't be any traces of it."

Chen Yao was startled and quickly took back the silver hairpin. She held it in her hand and looked at it and asked in surprise, "You made it?"

Usually, when using jewelry as a poison tool, it would be placed in the middle of the ring. This silver hairpin was shaped like a bird's Ouroboros and held a pearl the size of a grain of rice in its beak.

"Yes, I spent some effort to refine this bead." Sai Mi nodded, and stared into her red eyes.

"How is my father?" Chen Yao felt his gaze, turned slightly, and wore the hairpin, and asked softly.

"Alright." Sai Mi hesitated, then asked: "How are you?"

"Very good." Chen Yao hurriedly said, then turned and left, "Has father told you before? I told you to stay and help me. "

"Yes." Sai Mi followed behind her, looking at her with an infatuated expression.

Chen Yao turned her head, looked at him, and said seriously: "Sai Mi, this is the Duke Palace, there are many rules here, if you see him, you must see the Duke, and in the future you must follow them and call me Madam. Other than me, don't listen to anyone else."

"Yes." Sai Mi nodded lightly.

"Madam." When the night watchman saw the two of them, he hurriedly stopped to pay his respects.

There were seven teams of guards in the palace. When the guard in charge of the palace saw Sai Mi, he walked over to ask with some suspicion, "Madam, who is this?"

Chen Yao magnanimously nodded and said softly: "This is a person from the Valley of the Godly Doctor. Her name is Sai Mi and she was sent by my father to protect me. The medicine I need is not well understood by the doctors in the military. The people of our Valley of the Godly Doctor are the most familiar with each other, and can save me a lot of trouble, and in the future, Sai Mi will specifically run errands for me and pay you silver from my salary. I just need to rest with you at night. "

"Yes." The guard quickly cupped his fists and nodded towards Sai Mi with a smile. He said enthusiastically: "Brother Sai Mi, follow me, go wash up and get a good night's sleep. I'll bring you to familiarize yourself with the environment tomorrow."

Sai Mi bowed to Chen Yao and followed Guard Captain Dong Jin to leave. The guards saluted Chen Yao and continued to patrol.

Chen Yao was a person from the God Doctor Valley, the daughter of Yulixiao's savior.

Chen Yao watched him walk off into the distance, then raised her hand to stroke the silver hairpin. She took a light breath and slowly walked forward. With Sai Mi's help, she could relax a lot.

Yu Yan had the Ah Lang, she had Sai Mi, and was something that could always make the duke hate him, hate him, abandon him, and cripple him …

The night in Chi City was a bit cold and cheerless. It was either because there was going to be a war or because this small city was a simple place. It was used to the sun rising and setting.

Yulixiao held Yu Yan's hand and strutted towards a tavern on the east side of Lake City.

Yu Yan curiously turned her head, and saw that An Hong and Jin Cheng had somehow caught up with them, slowly hanging behind them.

"They're in the back." Yu Yan looked at the twins who just appeared out of nowhere in shock.

"Every year, on my birthday, they would accompany me." Yulixiao turned his head to take a look, and his gaze returned to Yu Yan's face. There was one thing he couldn't say out loud … And now you're with me too...

"In the valley too?" Yu Yan hesitated.

"They don't know my birthdate." Yulixiao saw through her thoughts in a glance, and said without hesitation.

Yu Yan was a little disbelieving. Clearly, their relationship wasn't too bad.

Jin Cheng giggled and quickened his pace as he said in a low voice: "It was because the Valley of the Godly Doctor fought with people for medical skills back then, that caused people to frame them, and caused their names to be sullied, that's why they decided to hide in the Valley. The Valley Master really wanted to revive the reputation of the Godly Doctor Sect, but didn't want to help treat normal people until the Duke fell into the Valley. In order to repay this debt of gratitude, the Prince has agreed to Valley Master's request to take Chen Yao as his wife and let the Divine Doctor Sect enjoy eternal glory. "

"Isn't that a false reputation? If you treat the illness of the people, you will also be honored for all eternity, and will receive even greater respect from the world. " Yu Yan didn't dare agree with her thoughts. She didn't understand why she didn't love living a carefree life in the valley.

"Everyone's goal is different." Yulixiao laughed and said gently: "If everyone acted like you, who would want to become an official? Although your father is honest, he is not a qualified official. If he can't even protect his own life, how can he protect his family and the people under his wing? You have to understand, being arrogant is not a good thing. In the world, there is always a limit to one's abilities, but it doesn't mean one would be able to harm others. "

"My father is a good official …" Hearing him say that, Yu Yan was angry, but could not refute him.

"A good official, not a proper one." Yulixiao scratched her palm.

"Could it be that everyone is hypocritical, that everyone is corrupt, and if you still turn a blind eye to the wrong things, then you are qualified? If you say it's square and round, then you call it treacherous and vile people! " Yu Yan flung his hand away and refuted.

Seeing that the two of them had stopped and were about to argue, Jin Cheng and An Hong quickly gave each other a meaningful glance. The two of them squeezed between the two of them and laughed: "Ha, we're at a tavern, that tavern has at least ten years of wine.

"Let's go." Yulixiao retracted his gaze, said a few words indifferently and quickened his pace.

Yu Yan twisted her fingers and followed along. Even when she entered the tavern, her pretty face was still long.

During the day, Nie Shuangcheng came over and booked a tavern.'s people were everywhere else in the tavern, and they were all disguised as servants and regular customers.

The wine jar had already been carried in. There were a total of eight jars, and the windows were wide open. A few pots of orchids hung in the air, and moonlight was shining on the purple petals. A faint fragrance wafted through the room.

"Why are you drinking outside? "It's good as long as you're in the yamen." Yu Yan sat down and asked softly.

"Not only do you want to break free, I also want to be free occasionally." Yulixiao said indifferently.

Here, he could get rid of the restraints of his status as the prince, and he could only be with those closest to him. He didn't have to hold himself back, he didn't have to pay attention to his manners, he could drink from a big bowl whenever he wanted to, and he could laugh whenever he wanted.

"The dishes are served. I came over in the afternoon and brought over some wild vegetables from the mountain. I stewed some beef. Tsk, tsk, that taste …" Jin Cheng smacked his lips, causing him to almost drool.

"What wild vegetables?" she asked.

"Cannonball leaf." Jin Cheng said with a smile.

Yu Yan realised that An Hong did not say much, but just smiled and stood at the side. She opened a wine jar, poured wine, and placed a pair of chopsticks on the table.

"There's no singing this year. You can't just stare at the jar and drink it, right? Playing some little tricks? " Jin Cheng casually sat down, laughed and looked at the three, his gaze landing on Yu Yan's face.

"You want me to sing?" Yu Yan hesitated and asked softly.

Yulixiao's long eyebrows twitched, and he said in a low voice: "Forget about you, don't defeat us!"

"What do you mean …" Yu Yan's heart was on fire again, even if he could not compare to Qiu Xuanling's bright and crisp voice that sounded like a drop in the ocean, she would not lose to anyone in a bar!

"What, you still want to sing 'Eighteen Flowers' to us?" Yulixiao glanced over.

Yu Yan refused to accept it and said: "Even so, I still won't lose in terms of alcohol …."

"Then let's have a pot of tea." An Hong suddenly spoke out, his voice was gentle and mellow, instantly calming the atmosphere.

Yu Yan turned her head to look at him. Three meters away, she threw a chopstick into the mouth of the wine pot. The wine pot needed porcelain as it had a thin and long neck.

However, Yu Yan had never thrown his chopsticks in before, it was a low-levelled chopstick. Nian An and Nian En would often make fun of her for making fun of her, when the situation got out of hand, Nian An would laugh at her hands that were as stupid as a pig's hoof.

"Then, add something new. The winner can ask the loser to do one thing, no matter what."

"I don't play." Yu Yan was sure to lose, and immediately shook her head.

"Sister-in-law, just watch as we brothers destroy our big brother." Jin Cheng said shamelessly as he grinned.

Yulixiao's mood would definitely be very good. He wasn't angry, he was only smiling at Yu Yan.

Yu Yan tasted the word "sister-in-law" and sneaked a glance at him. Her face was slightly hot as she said softly: "Then you guys can go, I'll eat."
