C893 A little too gentle

Liu Ruo Qing nodded her head and got up to get off the bed, but she saw Yan Yuan quickly lift her up, then pick up a cape and put it on her. Her fingers intentionally or unintentionally passed through her hair, causing Liu Ruo Qing to feel that he was doing this on purpose.

The rope that tied her to the cloak, his fingertip, slid past her neck, causing her body to stiffen once more. The numbness made her feel somewhat awkward and uncomfortable.

Seeing that Yan Yuan's expression did not change, as if it was an accident, Liu Ruo Qing retracted his gaze, thought, and decided to forget about it.

He probably treated her as Heng Er's savior to be so gentle towards her. It was just that she was too gentle, as if … Like a man to a woman.

When he thought of this, Liu Ruo Qing's line of sight secretly sized up Yan Yuan's expression again. After confirming that he was overthinking it, he slowly heaved a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Yan Yuan had already tied the rope on her cape, and his attention was completely focused on Liu Ruo Qing. He had noticed every nervous expression on her face and he tugged at the corner of her mouth without batting an eyelid.

"Let's go. Today's weather is pretty good. Let's go out and bask in the sun."

"Alright, thank you, Your Highness."

Liu Ruo Qing's injuries were not light this time, being able to survive was definitely her luck. When she first got off the bed, she did not feel anything, but just when she stood and wore the cloak, she felt that her legs were so sore that she did not even have the strength to lift her legs.

She looked at Yan Yuan awkwardly and pursed his lips. He wanted to use inner force, but found that he had lost all his inner force.

Her expression slightly changed as she tried again, only to discover that it still wasn't working.

Was it because she had just woken up that she couldn't use her inner strength?

Liu Ruo Qing didn't think too much into it. She grabbed Yan Yuan's arm and tried to raise his foot to take a step forward.

In the next second, she felt her legs lighten, and her entire person was already being held horizontally by Yan Yuan.

She was shocked for a moment, but then she unconsciously wrapped her arm around Yan Yuan's neck, and looked at Yan Yuan with eyes full of astonishment, "Your Highness …"

"You don't have the strength to walk right now, so I'll take you out in the sun."

"But if we do this …"

She looked at Yan Yuan, then looked at herself, wanting to remind Yan Yuan that their current position was too dubious. If the servants saw that the Duke was carrying a man as if he was a woman, who knows what they would think?

Yan Yuan knew what she was thinking, and didn't say anything. There was only a hint of teasing in the depths of his eyes as he said: "Is there a problem with us acting like this?"

When he looked at her, the expression in his eyes was as calm as it was from the start, as if he did not have the slightest bit of evil intent.

If she was a woman now, it wouldn't be a big deal, but she was a man now! Could it be that Yan Yuan didn't feel that his actions were very similar to hers … Yeah, like a rogue.

In Liu Ruo Qing's heart, this was the only word that she could think of, but if she were to say these words, she would definitely scold her. After thinking it over, she swallowed her words and shook her head towards Yan Yuan.

"No …." "No problem, it's just that when you treat this little one like this, this little one is somewhat flattered."

"It's good to feel pampered, don't feel scared."

"…"

Yan Yuan's words made Liu Ruo Qing instantly feel speechless. She really didn't know what to say.

It was true that he was being pampered, but his actions had really shocked her, okay?

Seeing her distressed look, Yan Yuan smirked in a good mood. He thought in his heart naughtily: To let you deceive this king, this king must take back some interest.

Carrying Liu Ruo Qing into the courtyard, she found that the weather was indeed good today, just like Yan Yuan's state of mind, sunny and comfortable.

It had been a long, long time since he had been with her like this. The sun, the talk, all these things made him feel more satisfied than he had ever felt before.

In this lifetime, with her here, he thought, it would be great if he didn't have to be this prince.

Liu Ruo Qing sat beside him, looking at his smile, she suddenly felt as if she hadn't seen him smile like this in a long time. It seemed that his mood was really good, huh.

And looking at the smile in the depths of his eyes, Liu Ruo Qing seemed to be infected by her, and her mood instantly became better.

"Your Highness, how do you plan to take care of Xi Ya?"

With the sudden mention of such a depressing person, Yan Yuan's smile was retracted, and he mentioned Xi Ya, his voice becoming heavier, "She is already dead."

"Dead?"

Liu Ruo Qing was astounded. She had thought that they would continue to keep Xi Ya alive and dig out the secret behind Ye Man's back.

Yan Yuan saw through her thoughts, and said: "That woman is just a chess piece in Ye Man's hands, we can't get anything from her body. Leaving her behind would only bring us unnecessary trouble."

Liu Ruo Qing nodded her head, and did not say anything else. Xi Ya was a person who had too many thoughts and was too stupid, the more such a person was, the easier it would be for him to follow her own thoughts and act recklessly, and she could tell just from the fact that she kidnapped Heng Er.

The risk of her carrying Heng Er away from the palace was extremely high. Even though she had succeeded, as long as she investigated deeper, she would still be able to find her.

After that, in order to curry favor with Yan Yuan and not care about being discovered, she brought him out of the secret room just like that. All of her actions were taken for granted, and she would not think about it in accordance to normal logic.

It was just that, in the entire Easternum's Imperial Court, she was only an inconspicuous identity, moreover, she was only a teenage girl. When everyone thought about it, they would subconsciously ignore her, and complicate things from the very beginning.

Keeping such a person around didn't pose much of a threat, but it was true that she would bring them unnecessary trouble.

Right now, the matter of the Nanling colluding with the xieqing could be said to already be on the table. It was just that there was not a single point that could be touched that would cause both sides to truly cross eyes and kill Xi Ya. It truly did not have much of an impact on the entire matter.

Liu Ruo Qing did not ask further about Xi Ya. What gave her a headache was not Xi Ya, but Ye Man, that monster that did not look like a human or a ghost.

The three monsters he hid in the Huiyang City were able to destroy a village overnight. If there were more of these monsters, the world would be thrown into chaos.

Right now, she did not know how many monsters Ye Man had in her hands. Although the monsters' weakness was her, but she alone did not have the ability to create clones. Even if her blood was useful, how much of the killing would she be able to stop?
