Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

On the second day, Yuan Jing's health had improved a lot.

Of course, this effect cannot be achieved if you just rest.

Around nightfall, he was woken up by Xianyun and asked to drink some medicine.

Yuan Jing Mansion always has a variety of healing medicines prepared by highly skilled doctors, and the effects are very fast after taking them.

After taking the medicine, I felt sleepy again.

Xianyun took the bowl with the medicine residue and asked, seeing that her master was about to go back to sleep:

"Princess, the prince consort... please ask me to wake her up and let her go back to her own courtyard to sleep."

Yuan Jing then discovered that Liu Yao had actually fallen asleep beside the bed.

It's just that she was sleeping at the end of the bed, and the length and width of the bed in his room were almost two or three times that of an ordinary bed, so he didn't see her.

At this moment, seeing Liu Yao lying at the end of the bed with a peaceful face, his heart seemed to calm down as well.

"Princess?"

Xianyun didn't get a reply, so she asked again.

Yuan Jing turned his head quickly and warned in a low voice:

"Keep your voice down."

Xianyun quickly covered her mouth and asked with her eyes.

Yuan Jing remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking. He waved his hand, motioning her to leave.

"No, I'll handle it myself."

Xianyun didn't understand the meaning of "deal with it yourself" in the princess' words, but she didn't ask any more questions. She nodded and went out with the empty bowl of soup.

The door of the room was also closed from the outside by Xianyun.

Yuan Jing silently glanced at the sleeping Liu Yao, put on his shoes, and subconsciously carried her to the bed.

When I got out of bed, my leg accidentally hit the corner of the bed.

The slight pain set off an alarm bell in his mind.

Yuan Jing looked at his hands that were spread out to hug Liu Yao, and was slightly stunned.

There was a faint voice in my head saying: If I really did this, a certain inviolable boundary would be crossed.

Yuan Jing paused for a long time, and finally did not move her. He just went forward and stuffed a soft pillow behind her, and slightly adjusted her sleeping position.

With the support, it was visibly apparent that Liu Yao's expression was much more relaxed.

Yuan Jing went to the closet and got a thin quilt. She imitated how he tucked the corners of the quilt for herself and carefully wrapped the quilt around her from all sides.

After finishing everything, Liu Yao returned to bed and continued to sleep in the drowsiness after taking the medicine.

Even though his sleepiness was interrupted by taking medicine, this was the most sound and peaceful sleep Yuan Jing had ever had.

……

After waking up and washing up casually, Liu Yao stayed in Yuan Jing's yard and shared breakfast with him for the first time.

The princess' breakfast was much more exquisite and sumptuous than that of her husband's.

There were bird's nest porridge, yam and shredded duck hot pot, glutinous rice and honey steamed lotus root... There was a large table full of all kinds of dishes.

Although Liu Qiao didn't care much for food, he still ate half a bowl of porridge and rice more than usual in the morning.

Yuan Jing was injured and couldn't eat anything greasy, so he simply had two bowls of golden bird's nest porridge.

When he finished the second bowl, he thought about what he had put aside yesterday and asked:

"Prince Consort, you said yesterday that you had something important to tell me, what was it?"

Liu Hao wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, sat upright, and answered:

"A few days ago, news came from Yanzhou that there was a flood and the situation was not good. The capital needed to allocate grain and funds. His Majesty mentioned this matter in the court yesterday and wanted to send people to deliver the disaster relief supplies."

"I took the initiative to ask the emperor for permission and accepted this mission."

The spoon Yuan Jing was holding hit the wall of the white porcelain bowl, making a crisp sound.

"You want to go to Yanzhou? The situation there is not good. You might get into a lot of trouble if you go there."

He frowned, not quite agreeing with Liu Yao's actions.

Liu Hao took a sip of the hot tea on the table, and after a while, he slowly said:

"It's because the situation is bad that I took the initiative to ask the emperor for permission. Disaster relief supplies are too important for the victims. The current situation in the court..."

She suddenly stopped talking, sighed deeply, and then continued:

"If other officials took on the important task and colluded with those people, they would have exchanged the relief rice for credit halfway through, and very little would have reached the hands of the disaster victims."

“Even if the official who takes on the important task does not go along with them, I am still worried that something might happen to him halfway, and both people and relief supplies might mysteriously disappear, resulting in a worse outcome than the previous one.”

"I really can't accept this."

Liu Hao's hands tightly grasped the wall of the cup, his eyes clear.

"Although I cannot change the current situation in the court, I have a way to deliver the disaster relief supplies to the victims intact."

"I will have to borrow the princess's name at that time. The eldest princess and her husband are also royal relatives. They will definitely not dare to harm my life, and they will have to restrain some actions."

"As for trouble? I'm never afraid of trouble. I took the imperial examination to serve the people. If I'm afraid of trouble, why would I be an official to the people?"

Liu Yao's eyes were firm, without any fear of going to a dangerous place.

Some of them are just twinkling with some bright starlight that seems to burn away all the injustice.

It was difficult for Yuan Jing to say no to Liu Yao who was in this state.

He held the handle of the spoon and swirled it around in the porridge for a long time.

"Okay, go ahead."

Liuqiao was very happy.

She told Yuan Jing about this because she had an important matter to entrust to him.

Although the two did not have in-depth contact, she could still feel Yuan Jing's character.

I can't say I'm open-minded, but I'm definitely not a stingy person either.

On the first night of their marriage, he was willing to take the initiative to bear the consequences of punishment and push himself to his cousin. Actually, Liu Yao did have some trust in Yuan Jing.

Now seeing that Yuan Jing had no objections, he quickly continued:

"Princess, please take care of Sangsang when I'm not at home. Don't worry, she is very sensible and won't cause trouble on purpose. She won't cause any trouble either. You just need to..."

"Wait," Yuan Jing interrupted her in time, "I'll go with you."

?

This was clearly what Liu Hao meant.

Why did he go to Yanzhou?

Yuan Jing sorted out his thoughts.

Although he now had evidence against the corrupt official, he could not display it immediately.

That corrupt official was the most trusted by the emperor, and no one knew how many good things he had presented to him in private.

Even if the emperor knew that it was the people's money, he would not punish him easily with the evidence before his eyes.

Yuan Jing couldn't even be sure, in his eyes, whether his own offspring were more important or his subordinates who could offer him good things were more important.

Anyway, he originally wanted to give both of them a heavy blow together, so there was nothing wrong with delaying the plan a little.

Since the evidence cannot be used, at this moment, Yuan Jing, who holds the handle on the corrupt official, is more dangerous to stay in the capital than to go to Yanzhou.

After thinking it over carefully, he felt that staying away for a while might be a good idea.

Wait until that person lets his guard down, then come back and catch him off guard.
