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

A country cannot be without a king for a day. Xiao Zhang and his large army waited for Xiao Yin for a month, but he did not wake up. Xiao Yin's condition did not allow him to travel long distances, so Xiao Zhang had to return to the capital first.

With such a big thing happening to the Lin family, Duke Lin would naturally return to Beijing to deal with subsequent related matters.

As an ally, Chu Bai needed to discuss subsequent alliance matters, so he also returned to Beijing early.

Now the only ones left in Beiyang Pass are Ning Xi, Lin Zhaoyue, the unconscious Xiao Yan, Ning Yi, Ding Dong, and the officials and soldiers appointed by Xiao Zhang to stay and do post-war construction.

Ning Yi would go wherever Ning Xi was. Moreover, Duke Lin was worried about Lin Zhaoyue being alone in Beiyang Pass, so he let Ning Yi stay as well.

The longer Xiao Yan was unconscious, the more worried Ning Xi became.

Occasionally, Lin Zhaoyue could see Ning Xi sitting beside Xiao Yan's bed and secretly wiping away tears.

At that moment, Lin Zhaoyue felt extremely guilty.

They spent the New Year in Beiyangguan. Three months later, the ice and snow melted and spring came and flowers bloomed.

Lin Zhaoyue was standing in the flower bed cutting flowers.

It has become her habit to change the flowers in Xiao Yan's vase every day.

She had just cut a flourishing rose when she saw Ding Dong running towards her excitedly.

"Miss, ma'am..."

Lin Zhaoyue looked up at her and said:

"what happened?"

Ding Dong said happily:

"Miss, the prince is awake."

Because Xiao Ying had made great contributions, Xiao Zhang restored Xiao Ying's position as crown prince after he returned.

He is now the crown prince of Anguo.

And the master is the queen.

The rose in her hand fell to the ground, and Lin Zhaoyue muttered the question again.

"What did you say?"

Ding Dong smiled and said:

"Girl, the prince is awake..."

Lin Zhaoyue lifted her skirt and ran towards Xiao Yan's yard.

Ding Dong looked at Lin Zhaoyue's anxious expression, covered his mouth and chuckled, then hurried to inform Ning Xi of the good news.

Xiao Yan had washed up, dressed neatly and was about to go out when he saw the girl running towards him.

She was wearing a lake green tiered skirt with a gold and jade pendant hanging around her waist. She held up the hem of her skirt, like a light colorful butterfly.

Perhaps noticing his gaze, she looked towards him and then stopped.

The two of them stared at each other from a distance, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet, as if they were the only two people left in the world.

She was slightly out of breath due to running. After a while, she continued to run towards him and threw herself into his arms.

Xiao Yan reflexively put his arms around her slender waist. He felt numb and as if he was in a dream.

Zhao Zhao took the initiative to hug him...

When Xiao Yun was hugged by Lin Zhaoyue, his heart was instantly filled with something.

He held her waist and looked down at her, not daring to use any force, for fear that this was just a dream and would disturb her.

It was not until he felt her warm touch on his thin lips and it hurt a little from her biting them that he realized this was not a dream.

Zhao Zhao took the initiative to hug him and kiss him...

Realizing something, Xiao Yun's dark eyes suddenly lit up and his heart almost jumped out of his chest.

He waved his hand, dismissing all the servants.

Seeing that he had no reaction, Lin Zhaoyue was about to step back, but her slender waist was immediately grabbed by his big hand. He pressed her hard into his arms.

The wide sleeves covered most of her body, but his thin frame was able to completely cover her and bring her into his territory.

He lowered his head and kisses came all over him.

He seemed to want to confirm something, and kissed her eagerly and roughly, until she accepted him bit by bit, and his offensive and probing gradually slowed down.

He licked and kissed her gently while holding her hand and pressing it against his chest, letting her feel his heartbeat.

"Zhao Zhao..."

Xiao Yan spoke in a hoarse voice, calling her name over and over again.

She occasionally responded, holding his shoulders with one hand and placing the other on his chest, feeling his rapid heartbeat.

After kissing for an unknown amount of time, Lin Zhaoyue felt a little sore in her neck, so she stepped back and said:

"My neck is sore."

He was too tall, and it was tiring to keep looking up to kiss him.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then he picked her up and sat her up, placing her on the table.

His long legs were wedged between hers, his arms on either side of her, enveloping her completely.

The dark gold brocade robe overlapped with her layered skirt, looking indescribably charming.

He lowered his eyes, staring at her quietly with his dark eyes. He suddenly wanted to confirm it again and wanted to hear her say it again, so he opened his mouth and said:

"Zhao Zhao."

"Ok?"

"Do you love me?"

Hearing his question, Lin Zhaoyue laughed.

She deliberately teased him, looked away, reached out to play with the jade pendant hanging from his waist, and pretended to be indifferent:

"You care?"

"care."

He cares terribly.

"Then answer my question first."

"Okay, you ask."

Lin Zhaoyue looked up at him, her bright almond eyes staring straight into his dark eyes.

"You're obviously back too? Why don't you admit it?"

Xiao Yun was slightly stunned, his thin lips tightly pursed, and his fingertips tapping the table turned pale.

After a while, he spoke with difficulty:

"I'm afraid you won't want me."

"Aren't you infected with the love poison? At Zhuyuan, Feng Xin said you were infected with the love poison too?"

"Yes, I was poisoned by the love poison, but it is true that I can't hurt you and protect you..."

This is the question he has been avoiding... No matter what the reason, the fact is that he hurt her.

Seeing his guilt and self-blame, Lin Zhaoyue held his face with her hands, looked straight at him, and said:

"Since you stabbed me and I stabbed you back, and you exchanged my life for mine, I will forgive you temporarily."

Life for life?

Xiao Yun was slightly surprised.

"you know?"

Although we know that she has come back from the past, judging from what she said and did before, she only has the memory of her previous life.

"Not only do I know that you exchanged your life for mine, I also know that our child is still alive, his name is Xiao Jingchen, and the people of the Lin family are still alive."

That was her complete memory, but she didn't know why she lost her memory of her death after her rebirth.

"Zhao Zhao, I'm sorry, I should have..."

Before Xiao Yan could say anything, Lin Zhaoyue directly blocked his mouth and traced his perfectly shaped thin lips.

Xiao Yan cooperated with her and let her have whatever she wanted.

After a long time, she let go of his lips and said:

"Since you've decided to start over, let's just put those things behind us! Even if we can't figure it out, there's still the future, so don't say sorry."

He looked at her, was silent for a while, and replied:

"it is good."

At this moment, Xiao Yan in front of her was like a toothless tiger, allowing her to flatten and round him.

Seeing that he was very well behaved, Lin Zhaoyue said with satisfaction:

"I can now answer your question."

Her clear eyes looked directly into his black eyes, and her red lips lifted slightly:

"Love."

All the fears and insecurities turned into intense heartbeats the moment Lin Zhaoyue said she loved him.

It was like a gentle stream of water slowly soaking his desolate heart. At this moment, he truly came alive.

He hugged her tightly, his voice hoarse, as if he was trying hard to restrain something.

He rested his head on her shoulder and whispered:

"Zhao Zhao, I love you too, more than you think..."

……

As soon as Ning Xi arrived, she received a hint from the guard. She smiled like an aunt and quickly pulled Ding Dong to hide.

Although Xiao Yan has woken up, she still needs to rest for a while. In order not to hinder her son from pursuing his wife, she thinks that she should be sensible and not be a light bulb for them in the future.

When the two of them came out, Xiao Yan took advantage of the situation and interlocked his fingers with hers, saying:

"I'm hungry. Come have a meal with me."

In the past three months, Xiao Yan has been eating liquid food! And he has always eaten very little, which can only barely maintain his vital signs. He has lost a lot of weight.

Lin Zhaoyue let him hold her hand, and when she looked up, she saw Ning Xi with a smile on her face. She subconsciously pulled her hand back quickly, and even put her hands behind her back like a child who had been caught.

Xiao Yan: ...

"Mother."

Xiao Yan shouted.

Ning Xi walked towards the two of them and said:

"Is Yan'er awake? Are you feeling unwell?"

"My son is fine, mother, don't worry. Thank you for taking care of me these days."

Ning Xi actually hoped that Xiao Yan would be more noisy.

She asked Xiao Yan:

"hungry?"

Xiao Yan nodded.

Several people went out to eat together. Xiao Yan could only eat light meals now, and his stomach had become accustomed to eating less in the past three months, so he couldn't eat too much at once.

Although he said he was very hungry, in fact, the only ones who actually ate were Ning Xi, Lin Zhaoyue, Ning Yi and Ding Dong. He only ate half a bowl of porridge and two bites of steamed fish. The rest of the time, he was picking fish bones and peeling crabs for Lin Zhaoyue and Ning Xi.

Ning Yi followed suit and peeled Ning Xi's clothes as well.

After finishing the meal, Ning Xi said:

"Something happened in the palace. Since Ying'er has woken up, I will take Ning Yi back to the capital in two days. But your body still needs to be nursed back to health. Zhaozhao, Ying'er will be left to you."

Lin Zhaoyue couldn't refuse and nodded.

Xiao Yan glanced at Ning Xi and said after a while:

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Before Ning Xi returned to the capital, she cooked for them personally, and everyone helped. Xiao Yan, who had just recovered from a serious injury, was driven out.

Since he was not allowed to work, he would lean on the doorstep and watch them do it. He saw how busy they were, the aroma of food wafting from the kitchen, Lin Zhaoyue kneading the dough with a smile, and occasionally bickering with Ding Dong and Ning Xi. That lively image gradually replaced her cold appearance in his mind.

She noticed that he was looking at her, so she turned her head and smiled at him with her beautiful smile.
