Yan Qingcheng clenched her teeth as she supported Su Nuo. When she saw Bei Chen Han from afar, she immediately threw Su Nuo in the most conspicuous place. She then turned around and left as fast as she could.

There were already many prey on Bei Chen Han's horse. When he walked over, Su Nuo's bloodied appearance was directly imprinted into his eyes, her expressionless face flashed with complex emotions, she got down from the horse, and hugged Su Nuo, but the moment she moved, a large amount of blood flowed out from the wound on her shoulder, and very quickly, Bei Chen Han's clothes were stained with blood.

Bei Chen Han frowned, and at that moment, Su Nuo felt a warm sensation on her skin, and opened her eyes with much difficulty. Bei Chen Han's face was somewhat blurry as he entered her eyelids: "Master!" Su Nuo called out, but her voice was weak, as though she had reached the end of her life.

Bei Chen Han froze, and before he could say anything, Su Nuo fainted again.

Outside the hunting grounds, when the crowd saw Beichen carrying Su Nuo out, they were all shocked. Beichen who came down from above had a serious expression on his face as he asked: "What happened to Na'er, why is it so serious?"

"It's my fault that I didn't protect you when you injured me, Xiao'er." Bei Chen Han said.

Bei Chenyan quickly said, "Imperial Physician, where's the Imperial Physician?"

The imperial physician at the side rushed over to let Su Nuo see. Bei Chen Han had been hugging Su Nuo the entire time, his face expressionless. Under the sunlight, his entire person was like a cold and unfeeling shrine.

The imperial physician heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Fu Jin's injury looks frightening, but it's nothing serious. It's just that Fu Jin needs to rest well, or else he'll suffer from severe disease slander."

Bei Chenyan stood at the side and said, "Han'er, do you know? Go back and help Xiao'er recuperate. If there is anything you want, just tell your father."

Bei Chen Han said: "Thank you royal father, I will definitely let Xiao'er recuperate properly."

"Go." Beichen waved his hand, and he carried Su Nuo onto the horse carriage and left.

This unforeseen event shocked everyone present.

Sweat trickled down Yan Qingcheng's face. She did not care about it at all, only using her fastest speed to rush to the location of the Duke of Northern Stellar City. When she came back, all she saw was a field of blood-red, which was even redder than maple leaves in October!

The blood color on her face completely faded. Yan Qingcheng ran to the Duke's side and carefully extended her hand to touch the Duke of Bei Chen. With great difficulty, the Duke opened his eyes, and Yan Qingcheng cried out in surprise, "Your Highness!" However, tears were already flowing down his face.

The Duke of Beichen forced out a smile, that smile still contained a little bit of unruly feeling, "Cheng'er will be ugly if he cries like this, I don't like ugly people."

Yan Qingcheng continued to cry, and the more she cried, the more furious she became. The Duke of Beichen's voice became weaker and weaker, "Help me up. If I don't leave now, my blood will flow faster."

Yan Qingcheng was jolted out of her stupor by those words. She hurriedly helped Duke Bei Chen up and carefully walked towards the exit.

When Bei Zhen Yan saw the wounded Duke Bei Chen, his face turned ugly. Everyone was scared silly, a bunch of people came up to him and asked with concern: "Third Marquis, what's wrong with you?"

The imperial physician wanted to step forward to treat Duke Beichen's illness, but he was rejected. The man turned his head to Yan Qingcheng and said, "Help me over there."

Bright red blood dripped from the fine robes onto every inch of grass as if it were a blooming flower.

The Duke of Beichen walked to Beichen's side, raising his deathly pale face to look at Beichen Rock, and then smiled. On this summer afternoon, the golden rays of the sun overlapped with each other's untouchable faces, forming an extremely strange, ice-cold and demonically charming scene.

Lord Beichen said, "Father, maybe you can be more ruthless next time. You don't need to see me anymore." The Duke of Beichen was smiling when he said those words, but his eyes were ice-cold.

Bei Chen Yan did not say anything, but just stared at the Duke of Bei Chen, his eyes full of conflict. In the end, Bei Chen Yan let out a sigh: "I won't touch her again, as long as you give me a safe inheritance."

Lord Beichen laughed, but this time there was no chill, and he said, "Okay," before fainting, like a bead with a broken string.

"Imperial Physician, Imperial Physician, hurry and let your lordship have a look." Bei Chen Yan shouted in panic.

The Imperial Physician was still in a state of panic as he hurried forward to treat Duke Bei Chen, but the more he looked at the man's face, the more his expression darkened. When he saw Bei Chen Yan's expression, he didn't know what to say.

"How is my son?" Bei Chen Yan asked, his face full of worry.

The imperial physician hesitated for a moment before saying, "The Third Marquis … is a threat to his life."

His words were like a thunderclap, shocking everyone to the point that they were dumbfounded.

Bei Chenyan grabbed the imperial physician and said, "If you can't cure my son, then you can go down and accompany him."

With that, the imperial physician was scared stiff. Bei Chenyan said, "You're still not treating him."

The imperial physician hurriedly took out his medicine box and began to treat Beichen. Beichen's eyes were unblinking as he observed from the side. Yan Qingcheng bit her lips so hard that they were about to bleed, yet she still continued to stare.

The armor and robes had been cut open. That hideous wound was suddenly exposed in front of everyone's eyes. Everyone couldn't help but gasp. Even if they had been on the battlefield all day, they still wouldn't be as terrifying as the Third Marquis, who had always been a warm and gentle country.

Beichen's brows tightly knitted, and his eyes were filled with love.

Time passed minute after minute. It was unknown how much time had passed before the imperial physician finished bandaging all the wounds on his body, large and small. His voice trembled as he spoke. "Your majesty, the Third Marquis' wounds have been bandaged, but —"

Bei Chen Yan's face turned cold: "Just what?"

The imperial physician's legs gave way as he knelt on the ground, but he still told the truth. "But whether Third Marquis can endure this will depend on the will of heaven."

"Bastard, nothing will happen to my lord. If anything happens to him, I'll ask for you." Bei Chenyan scolded angrily, then he looked at the Duke of Bei Zhen's face and said softly, "My son, as long as you wake up, I will give you everything. If you want her, I will give her to you."

The clear and shallow words were like the clouds in a dream, gentle and beautiful.

His eyelids were heavy, but his body was in extreme discomfort, especially pain, which kept rising bit by bit. Su Nuo opened her eyes with much difficulty. What entered her sight was a patch of greyness. When she opened her eyes a little more, she discovered that the sky was darkening.

Su Nuo wanted to move her body, but the moment she did, the pain made her want to split open. That feeling was unbearable. Suddenly, Su Nuo remembered that she had almost been eaten by a tiger. It was her master who had saved her.

Su Nuo smiled, her eyes filled with soft light. Her master was still saving her when she was so angry, her master was really nice to her.

Suddenly, Su Nuo was stunned. The master saved her, so the master must have met that terrifying tiger. Although she had seen Master in a daze at that time and knew that he wasn't injured, but if he met a tiger like that, he would definitely be injured.

Thinking of this, Su Nuo struggled to get off the bed. Just as she moved, the bandaged wound opened up again. The pain made her break out in a cold sweat.

"What are you doing?" The door opened, and Beichen walked in. His voice was calm, as if he was not in the least bit emotional.

Once Su Nuo saw that it was Bei Chen Han, she left the bed without a care. She didn't want her master to be injured, even if it was just a small wound. If it was like that, she would rather die.

Bei Chen Han frowned, seeing Su Nuo inspect his body from head to toe, the wound on her shoulder had long been broken, the white gauze was stained blood-red.

After confirming that Bei Chen Han was not injured, Su Nuo could not help but smile foolishly. Luckily, her master was not injured, this was good.

"What were you doing?" Bei Chen Han asked again.

Only then did Su Nuo realize that she had overstepped her limits and quickly kneeled on the ground. "Xiao'er, Xiao'er only wants to see if Master is injured."

"Injured." Bei Chen Han mumbled.

Su Nuo lowered her head and said, "That tiger is so big, Xiao'er, I was afraid that Master would be hurt, so …" Su Nuo didn't know what to say, but it was good that her master was not hurt.

Bei Chenghan looked at Su Nuo's downcast face with a deep look in his eyes. He did not show any emotion as he said, "Stand up."

Su Noche looked up and saw that Bei Chen Han did not have any signs of getting angry, so he slowly got up. The only difference was that the blood on the wound had already soaked the gauze.

Bei Chen Han frowned, looked at Su Nuo's wound and asked: "Xiao'er, don't tell me you don't know that you are injured? "The imperial physician said that if you don't take good care of yourself, you'll be slandered."

Su Nuo lowered her face and said, "Nou'er understands."

Bei Chen Han looked and his face suddenly softened. He stretched out his hand and beckoned to Su Nuo, "Come over, Xiao Er. This won't do, the wound won't heal." The voice seemed to have a trace of teasing in it.

Su Nuo obediently walked over, but her heart was filled with happiness. Inside, there was not only happiness, but also satisfaction.

Bei Chenghan took the gauze, but he did not move it very quickly. Looking at the gaping wound, he frowned and said: "Until the wound is healed, do you understand?"

Su Nuo nodded. "I understand."

Bei Chen Han was satisfied and started to apply the medicine on her. The medicine was good, but it had to be poured on her wound, the piercing pain caused Su Nuo's face to turn white in an instant. It was so white that there was not a trace of a person left, but she clenched her teeth and did not make a sound.

Her master had already treated her very well. No matter what, she could not forget her identity in front of her master due to the pain. That was not allowed, she absolutely could not.

Bei Chen Han did not see Su Nuo's expression, but directly applied medicine to the wound and bandaged it. Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something, there was a knock on the door: "Second Prince."

Bei Chen Han frowned and said: "Come in."

Before Housekeeper Zhou came in, Bei Chen Han had already covered Su Nuo with a blanket, and then said to him, "What is it?"

Housekeeper Zhou glanced at Su Nuo and felt awkward. He knew that the prince didn't like others letting this slave girl know about the Third Marquis' business.

Su Nuo also felt that her existence was a sudden embarrassment. She had always been a female slave who knew her place. She should not have listened to what she should not have done, and would never have done what she should not have done. Su Nuo wanted to find an excuse to leave, but before she could do so, Bei Chen Han had already stood up and followed Housekeeper Zhou out.

This movement was very natural and smooth, as if there was nothing inappropriate from the beginning to the end. However, when the owner of the candle that had been slightly blocking her path left in the next second, Su Nuo just stood there stunned, then she smiled.

She couldn't become greedy.

No. Su Nuo smiled as she told herself again and again in her heart.
