C961 Was 961 scared

"Senior Magus, where are you going?"

It was An Yu's voice.

Ye Man realized this, and his heart sank, especially when he held the sword to his neck.

"An Yu, you were hired by Master Ren to protect me, what are you trying to do?"

He did not know that An Yu was called Mo Yu, nor did he know that Mo Yu was someone close to Mo Rong Tian. The originally confident situation before him had already been ruined by that damnable Crown Princess Jing.

In this situation, even without asking, Ye Man knew that the so-called Bull Guard was actually the Crown Princess Jing that did not die at that time.

If he had known that she was his nemesis, he would have let her die on the execution grounds.

Originally, he caught Liu Ruo Qing to leave her whole body and make her into a monster that didn't look like a human or a ghost. At that time, he wanted to see if Yan Yuan would make a move against that precious wangfei.

In the end, he had made the wrong decision. Now, he was in for it.

The more Ye Man thought about it, the more he regretted it. This time, he suffered a crushing defeat, and initially, he wanted to escape in the chaos, but he had some money on him that he could use to hide his name for the rest of his life.

Hearing him ask this, Mo Yu let out a few chuckles and said, "Senior Magus, aren't you asking for it just because you know it?"

As he spoke, he forcefully pushed in the direction of the few Imperial Guards. Ye Man wanted to escape, but the secret guards left behind by Yan Yuan were no pushovers as they took him down on the spot.

Ye Man was stopped by Mo Yu just now, so they naturally saw it. Furthermore, Mo Yu gave them a lot of information along the way, so now, no one could care about Mo Yu anymore. They could only bring Ye Man and Grand Preceptor Pang back to the city.

Liu Ruo Qing was brought back to the Duke Palace, and she had already passed out. She followed the doctor and returned to the King Jing Palace with Yan Yuan, where Lu Yuan He had long been waiting for him.

Seeing Liu Ruo Qing carried back covered in blood, she was also shocked and quickly rushed over.

After Lu Yuan He finished taking Liu Ruo Qing's pulse, the expression on her face was somewhat strange. As for the specific expression, no one present could say for sure.

Yan Yuan was anxious too, but his voice was damaged, he could not make a sound, and could only stare at Lu Yuan He.

After a long while, Lu Yuan He retracted his finger from Liu Ruo Qing's wrist, stood up and cupped his hands to Yan Yuan, "Your Highness, please be at ease.

When he heard Lu Yuan He's words, the tone Yan Yuan was holding back completely relaxed.

As long as she lived, nothing else mattered.

When they were returning to the city, the imperial physician that accompanied her had diagnosed Qing Er's condition before, and said that she wasn't life threatening, but he was still worried. Now that Lu Yuan He had even said such words, he could finally calm down.

Following that, he remembered the strange and unreadable expression on Lu Yuan He's face. He looked at Lu Yuan He, but could not make a sound, so he did not say anything.

After all, Lu Yuan He had been by Yan Yuan's side for a long time. Although he did not say anything, he could guess what Yan Yuan wanted to ask.

Lowering his eyes to consider what he was about to say, he said after some careful consideration, "Just now, when I checked the pulse of the wangfei, I noticed that her pulse was a little strange. However, I can't tell what's so strange about her."

Hearing him say that, Yan Yuan wanted to ask more, but the moment he opened his mouth, his throat felt a burning pain. Lu Yuan He knew what Yan Yuan was worried about, so he said, "But rest assured, your highness, from the pulse, there is nothing wrong with your body, as long as you calm your heart and recuperate."

Only then did Yan Yuan relax completely. He nodded, signalling for everyone to withdraw, even the medicine woman who was left behind to treat Liu Ruo Qing's wounds was sent back by Yan Yuan.

He ordered his men to bring the medicine over and personally bandaged her wounds. Every movement he made was extremely careful and meticulous.

Looking at his pale face, he felt both heartache and fear.

Even though the imperial physician had told Lu Yuan He that she was not in life threatening danger, thinking back to that hair-raising scene, and thinking that he might lose her again in the blink of an eye, his entire heart shrank into a ball, and he felt so painful that his entire body might break into pieces at any time.

Liu Ruo Qing slept for a whole three days and three nights. When she woke up, she stretched with a refreshing feeling.

Furthermore, there was someone else beside her who was in a much more miserable state than her.

"He woke up."

A hoarse voice came from beside her ear. The voice was very low. If it wasn't because the room was too quiet, she wouldn't have heard it at all.

Liu Ruoqing's movements froze for a moment, and then she saw the man standing in front of her. She was haggard, with a face full of stubble. Her eyes were bloodshot, as if she hadn't slept for a very long time.

Especially that hoarse voice, which sounded as if it was barely audible, as if its vocal cords had been torn apart.

Liu Ruo Qing looked at him, his eyes revealing a trace of confusion. Looking at the person in front of him, his eyes seemed to reveal a strong sense of unfamiliarity, "You … "Who are you?"

The smile that just appeared on Yan Yuan's face suddenly froze, his tired eyes, when he saw the blank look on Liu Ruo Qing's face, felt pain in her heart, and after a while, she squeezed out a sound from the corner of her mouth, "You … Don't you recognize me? "

Liu Ruo Qing tilted his head and stared blankly at Yan Yuan. After staring for a while, she shook his head in distress and asked: "We … Do you know him? "

Seeing the uncertainty and undisguised unfamiliarity in Liu Ruo Qing's eyes, the smile on Yan Yuan's face completely disappeared and was replaced with a deep gloominess.

Seeing that he did not answer, Liu Ruo Qing asked again: "Do we really know each other? "Who are you to me?"

"I am your husband."

After feeling disappointed, Yan Yuan raised his head and gave her a gentle smile. He caressed her hair and said: "You just woke up, I'll get someone to get you something to eat."

Liu Ruo Qing looked at him, and after a long while, she nodded, "Alright."

Yan Yuan saw the clarity in her eyes that was unfamiliar, and his heart ached. After giving her a smile that she had barely squeezed out, he got up and walked out.

Just as he walked to the door and opened it, he felt a gust of wind behind him. Immediately after, he felt the person behind him jumping onto his back like a nimble little monkey.

Subconsciously, he reached out his hand to protect her. Before he could turn around, he heard a naughty voice, a low voice, and a suppressed smile. "Are you scared?"

Yan Yuan's body stiffened. After that, he realized something and turned his head around with a smile on his face. At the same time, he took advantage of the man on his back and pulled him into his embrace.
