You have asked for permission to marry, why should I restrain myself?

Xiao Yan peeled the last lychee and handed the intact flesh to Xiao Ran, flicking her head:

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Xiao Ran felt a little pain from his playing, and he covered his head with some complaints:

"It's not, then it's not!"

After rubbing it twice, Xiao Ran asked again without giving up:

"Brother Crown Prince, do you really not like Zhao Zhao? Why don't you like her? Zhao Zhao is pretty, has a likable personality, and comes from a good family. She is the perfect match for you, Brother Crown Prince. Or do you just like those dodder flowers that need to rely on others for everything and fall down at the slightest breeze?"

Although Xiao Ran did not mention any name of the dodder flower in his words, it was obvious who he was talking about.

What she hated most was Liu Yiyi, who seemed to want to kill her every two or three steps.

She is in poor health and doesn't know how to rest. She follows the prince around every day, calling him "brother, brother" like an old hen who only knows how to cackl.

But the Crown Prince really loved her, and even Zhao Zhao was very nice to her, which made her very confused.

Fortunately, I heard that Zhaozhao no longer paid attention to Liu Yiyi these days, so she ate two more bowls of rice because of this.

"Xiao Ran!"

The smile in his black eyes was replaced by a sharp warning:

"Yiyi is my savior and an important person to me. I don't want to hear such remarks in the future."

After leaving these words, Xiao Yun stood up and left Qingyao Palace.

As soon as Xiao Yan left the palace, he heard a familiar voice.

"Brother."

He turned his head and saw Liu Yiyi wearing a thin white fox fur coat. Her graceful neck was surrounded by a soft, snow-white collar, which made the girl's skin look exceptionally fair.

Although it is mid-spring, Liu Yiyi is weak and cannot stand the wind, so she is still wearing fox fur.

When the girl saw him, she trotted towards him.

Xiao Yan frowned slightly and said lightly:

"Your heart disease has relapsed and you haven't recovered yet, why did you come out again?"

In fact, Brother Ying hasn’t visited Xiao Ran since her coming-of-age ceremony.

When she occasionally went to the East Palace to look for him, he was not there.

I just ask someone to send something to her occasionally.

Like today, he asked someone to send her lychees, which were sweet and delicious.

Today is a special day. He heard that the emperor summoned him for something, so he has been waiting outside the palace.

Although I know that brother Ying is just worried about her health and is not really scolding her.

But Liu Yiyi still felt aggrieved, with red eyes:

"Brother, don't you remember what day it is today?"

Xiao Yun was stunned and couldn't remember it for a moment.

The assassinations and black market matters have kept him busy these days, and the dream he had last night made him uneasy.

Seeing Xiao Yan's expression, Liu Yiyi's nose felt sore and her little pearls kept falling down:

"Brother Ying, today is the day we met, has Brother Yan forgotten?"

The day they met was the day Liu Yiyi saved him. He said he would always remember this day, but he forgot.

Xiao Yan still remembered that after he was rescued that day, he found out that Liu Yiyi was lost and then saved him by accident.

While she was bandaging his wound with her tender hands in an unskilled manner, she cried in a baby voice saying that one of them had thin arms and legs and the other was blind, and they were going to starve to death in the mountains.

He actually hated people who cried a lot, but when he heard her babyish cry, he found it very cute.

Xiao Yan was ten years old at the time, two years older than her. He grew up in the palace and was much calmer than her. He rubbed her little pearls while coaxing her:

"Don't worry, someone will come looking for us."

"really?"

Although Xiao Yan couldn't see it, he could imagine that when Liu Yiyi asked this question, she must have tilted her little face up and blinked at him with tears in her big eyes.

"Ah."

Liu Yiyi was also easy to coax. He just nodded gently and she stopped crying.

In fact, Xiao Yan was not sure at that time whether his father could find him before they starved to death.

At noon the next day, Liu Yiyi fell ill, sometimes complaining of being cold, sometimes hot. He had no choice but to hold her in his arms and listen to her chanting the names of the dishes, "steamed chicken with wine, lamb with four soft shells..."

He knew she must be extremely hungry, so he coaxed her by saying that he would treat her to meals every day when he got out.

She became quiet afterwards. In the second half of the night, the cold became severe again. Xiao Yan was afraid that she could not bear it, so he cut off his blood to feed her.

Later he found out that she had tried wild mushrooms and got poisoned in order to find food for the two of them.

And she gave him the only non-poisonous mushroom.

After she woke up on the third day, she started looking for food again. After searching for a long time, she finally found a cherry halfway up the mountain. After the two of them ate the cherries for a few days, for some reason his body began to itch, red spots appeared, his neck became swollen and painful, and he even had difficulty breathing.

Liu Yiyi was so scared that she thought the cherries were poisonous.

The two of them stopped eating the cherries.

Liu Yiyi said that her mother once said that eating meat would make the body healthy and the diseases would go away, so she said she would go hunting to see if she could catch any rabbits or birds.

He disagreed, but she was very stubborn and refused to listen to anything he said, just asking him to wait there.

He waited for a long time that day, until his father's guards found him, but she still didn't show up.

He didn't panic when he was being chased, and he didn't panic when he fell off the cliff, but at that moment he suddenly became extremely scared.

All the guards were mobilized to look for her. When they found her, she was holding a few eggs in her arms and said she was lost again.

What a fool!

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry at that time, but he also secretly swore in his heart that she was so stupid that he had to protect her for the rest of his life.

However, on the way back, Liu Yiyi suddenly fainted and called the imperial physician, who said that she was poisoned by a snake.

Combined with the several snake eggs in her arms, it was easy to figure out the context of the matter.

She was bitten by a snake for those snake eggs.

The snake venom was very strong. Liu Yiyi was in a coma for half a month before she woke up. After waking up, she suffered from heart disease, a sequelae of the snake venom.

He didn’t know if it was because of the change in environment or the illness, but after Liu Yiyi woke up, he always felt something was different.

Seeing Xiao Yan's dazed look, Liu Yiyi pursed her lips and shouted:

"Brother."

Xiao Yun came back to his senses and looked at Liu Yiyi with more guilt in his eyes.

It would have been fine if I had dreamed of killing her, but I could even forget such an important day.

Xiao Yan raised his hand and wiped the little pearls on her face:

"I'm sorry, Yiyi. It's my fault that I forgot such an important day."

Liu Yiyi shook her head:

"Brother Yi has been very busy with official duties recently, so it's normal that he doesn't remember. Yiyi doesn't blame you."

"Let's go, Brother Ying will take Yiyi to Qianweilou to eat delicious food..."

……

No one knew what had suddenly gone wrong with Lin Zhaoyue, for she had come out late at night to look for food.

She was clearly very full at dinner, but there seemed to be a voice in her head urging her to come out, as if she had an appointment with someone.

Qianweilou is the largest restaurant in the capital. Even though it is already the hour of Xu, it is still packed with people.

She sneaked out to eat.

It would be a waste to eat in a private room alone, and it would cost more money, so Lin Zhaoyue just sat down at a random place in the lobby on the first floor. The waiter asked her what she wanted to eat.

Lin Zhaoyue casually said the name of the dish:

"Steamed chicken with wine, lamb tenderloin, cherry meat, stir-fried phoenix tongue,... drunken spareribs."

As soon as Xiao Yun walked into Qianweilou, he heard the names and order of the dishes exactly as he remembered. He paused and looked up suddenly.

In the lobby, Lin Zhaoyue was seen sitting upright in a seat wearing a water-blue dress.

Without time to think about it, Xiao Yan immediately strode to Lin Zhaoyue with a solemn expression:

"Please read the name of the dish again."

Lin Zhaoyue: …

What is Xiao Yan going crazy about?
