Yan Jue rolled his eyes. After all, his Sixth Brother was not a teenager, and there was a passionate relationship between them before. Although it was a hopeless situation, how could he not have any experience?
"Your mouth can move, but your feet can walk. Don't you know how to take the initiative?"
Yan Jue gave Yan Xiao a disdainful look, only to see Yan Xiao frowning, his face had a bit of worry: "I was afraid of scaring her."
Previously, he had hinted at her to probe her. However, that girl didn't seem to understand or really didn't have any feelings for him, so she didn't give him any reaction. Every time she saw him so respectfully, he would always want to go up and correct her.
He was really afraid that if she didn't care about him and he said something to her, he would scare her away from him. What would he do then?
Seeing Yan Xiao's worried and defeated look, although Yan Jue really wanted to tease him, he could only bear with it.
"How about this, do you know that she has feelings for you? Won't you know if you try her?"
"How?"
Yan Xiao suddenly looked at Yan Jue seriously, as if he was a good student who was being taught a lesson.
Yan Jue really wanted to paint Yan Xiao like this, it was a miracle that was rarely seen in a hundred years.
"Coincidentally, these few days are not warm and cold weather. Just tell her that you are infected with the cold and that it is not appropriate for you to set out on your journey. On one hand, you can delay the trip back to the capital, and on the other, you can test whether she is really nervous or not."
Hearing this, Yan Xiao's brows twitched.
"Of course, you should pretend to be good at catching cold. After all, Miss Shen has been by your side for so many years, it is very easy to distinguish if she is real or fake."
After Yan Jue finished speaking, he heard a disdainful snort from the tip of Yan Xiao's nose, "Do you think I would do such a despicable thing?"
Yan Jue did not seem to mind, and said: "Anyways, I have told you the method, if you wish for her to return to the capital earlier to look at this person, then just ignore my words, I think, the Master Shen is really fond of Miss Shen, and the person she wants to look at, will definitely not be some lousy person, maybe even better than you."
Yan Jue unconsciously reminded Yan Xiao, who was pulling a nerve, as his eyebrows loosened.
At this time, Yan Jue had already gotten up, patted his shoulder, and said: "Sixth Brother, think about it."
After Yan Jue left, Yan Xiao still did not move, but a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
The morning of the second day, news of Prince Rui's cold spread from the inn.
"Puff …"
When Yan Jue heard this news, he just happened to be drinking tea, when suddenly, tea sprayed out from his mouth.
"Is King Rui Lord sick?"
"Yes, the doctor came. He said that the prince was feverish and his face was flushed, and his voice was hoarse."
The one who spoke was one of Yan Xiao's personal guards, who was frowning, a look of worry in his eyes, "Eighth Prince, why do you think this is happening? My Prince's physique has always been very good. How could he just get sick like that? "
"Humph!" "How can it be good?"
Yan Jue laughed coldly, looking at him with disdain, "Your Prince has a lot of thoughts."
The bodyguard also did not understand what Yan Jue meant by that, but he saw that Yan Jue had already put down his wine cup, without hiding the gloating look on his face, "Let's go, this king will go take a look."
At the same time, in Yan Jue's room, the doctor had just ordered his men to fry the meat. General Han Jia was also in the room, looking extremely worried.
Seeing Yan Jue coming in, he quickly stepped forward and bowed, "Eighth Prince."
"What happened to sixth brother?"
"The doctor said that King Rui Lord has an evil wind entering his body and will not be able to escape from high fever. He will need to recuperate for a while, we can only talk about it after the fever has recuperated."
"How could this happen? Sixth brother has always been in good health."
Yan Jue acted as if he was hurt, and came over to Yan Xiao's side. Seeing that his face was red, he went up to check his body temperature, and muttered: "Nice guy, you're really sick."
He originally thought that in order to deceive Shen Qin, Sixth Brother, this "shameless person", by colluding with the doctors under his command, would tell him that the situation was serious.
When Yan Xiao heard his voice, he opened her eyes and glanced at him. That look in her eyes was still as cold as ever as he couldn't help but shiver when he looked at Yan Jue.
"Cough, cough …"
He covered his mouth and coughed to hide the guilt in his eyes as he said solemnly, "Sixth Brother, you should rest up. Just leave the matter of returning to the capital to report back to me."
As he said that, he bent down and whispered into Yan Xiao's ear. In a voice that only the two of them could hear, he said to Yan Xiao: "Sixth Brother, don't worry. I will have your Miss Shen stay behind to take care of you."
With that, Yan Jue stood up. Coincidentally, at this time, Shen Qin, who had received the news that Yan Xiao was very feverish, hurried over. Her face, eyes, and face revealed unconcealable worry.
Yan Jue thought for a while, then said to General Han who was waiting by the side: "Great General, let's not disturb Sixth Brother's rest any longer, let's go out first."
"Yes."
The two of them walked out together, and when they reached Shen Qin's side, Yan Jue's footsteps stopped, and she said: "Miss Shen, Sixth Brother will have to trouble you to take care of me. You know that there are all men in this translation room, I'm worried that they won't be able to take care of my Sixth Brother."
At this moment, Shen Qin was extremely worried for Yan Xiao, hence, when Yan Jue said this, she immediately agreed, "Alright, I will stay behind to take care of the Duke."
"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Shen."
A mischievous look flashed past Yan Jue's eyes, and he walked out of Yan Xiao's room with General Han.
He turned his head and saw Han Jia, who was walking beside him, looking like she wanted to speak but hesitated. He smiled. "What is it, General Han? Do you have something to tell This King?"
"Your Highness, the weather in Qi Zhou city has been unstable recently, sometimes cold, sometimes warm, and most likely to be infected by the cold wind. Next time, please advise King Rui Master not to take cold water in this kind of weather, it's very easy for him to get sick."
"Wh …" What? Cold water? "
Yan Jue seemed to have guessed something as the corner of his mouth twitched even more.
"That's right, last night when I came back from the city gate tower, I saw your highness washing cold water in the courtyard. I wanted to advise you, but your highness didn't listen. Look, your highness has already caught a cold overnight."
After Han Jia said that, the muscles on the corner of Yan Jue's mouth twitched more and more.
Who was it that said just yesterday that he would not do such a dishonorable thing? And the result?
In order to make the situation more believable, he even poured cold water on Zhang Xuan's head. He had truly caused himself to fall ill!
I can't believe it. In order to marry my wife, Sixth Brother even put his "old bones" on the line.
The laughter became louder and louder, until Han Jia, who was standing to the side, was somewhat baffled. She really did not understand why the Eighth Prince was laughing so boldly and unrestrainedly.
