Looking at Tai'an from the full moon

"Go ahead, tell me what happened in front of Xiao Zuoming."

Xiao Zuochen, Chu Yao and Yueying were all in Xiao Zuoming's room at the moment. The difference was that Xiao Zuochen and Chu Yao were standing aside, Yueying was sitting by the bed, and Xiao Zuoming was still in a coma.

"Why don't we wait until Xiao Zuoming wakes up and talk about it together?"

"Yeah, otherwise we'll have to say it again when he wakes up~"

"Say it now!"

Yueying stared at them.

Xiao Zuochen took a deep breath. It was quite an unlucky day. After being "scolded" by Wei Yang, he had to bear Yue Ying's "resentment".

Chu Yao knew that Xiao Zuochen didn't want to talk, so he was about to speak.

"matter..."

When Xiao Zuochen heard him speak, he was afraid that he would say something he shouldn't, so he spoke first.

"This is a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding? You can explain it with just one word misunderstanding?"

"Eh? You're going too far. He is the Prince of Yun after all. There's no reason for me to explain myself to you, right?"

Chu Yao also got angry when he saw Yueying's bad attitude towards Xiao Zuochen. But Yueying was not afraid of them at all. In her eyes, status was just something for ordinary people to see. Besides, she was living a new life, so why would she care about being suppressed by her status?

"Even if you are the Prince of Yun, you can't joke with the Emperor's life!"

Yueying spoke confidently, and Chu Yao's arrogance instantly deflated. Yes, no matter how high one's status is, who can be higher than the emperor?

Just as the three of them were staring at each other and refusing to give in, Xiao Zuoming woke up.

"water..."

The originally tense atmosphere immediately became warm after hearing Xiao Zuoming's voice. Chu Yao hurried to help him pour tea, Yueying quickly sat beside him and looked at him with concern, and Xiao Zuochen also walked forward to help him lift his upper body so that he could drink water.

"The water is coming, the water is coming!"

With the joint efforts of the three, they successfully fed the water in, and then the three of them stared at him in unison, wanting to see his reaction.

Xiao Zuoming took a while to calm down before he managed to open his eyes. After seeing these three people, he asked in confusion.

"Were you guys arguing just now?"

"Ah? No~ How could you hear us arguing when you were in a coma?"

Yueying spoke first to cover up the past. She didn't want Xiao Zuoming's recovery to be affected by this incident.

Xiao Zuoming glanced at Yue Ying in confusion, and then when he looked at Chu Yao, the scene at that time flashed back to his mind. He was stunned for a moment, and then looked at him.

"you!"

Chu Yao's body tensed up instantly and he spoke hesitantly.

"I suddenly remembered that I have something else to deal with, so I'll leave first! You should take good care of your injuries~"

Chu Yao finished speaking and ran away immediately.

"Hey! Don't run yet! Ahem~"

"Don't worry, he can't get away."

Xiao Zuoming wanted to sit up but he had no strength to do so and started coughing anxiously. Yueying quickly patted his back to help him breathe smoothly until he was able to breathe smoothly again. Then Yueying asked.

"Did he do anything to you?"

Based on what she heard about the conversation between Chu Yao and Prince Yun, Yueying always felt that the two of them had some ill intentions towards Xiao Zuoming.

When Xiao Zuoming heard Yueying ask him, he nodded at first, and Yueying's eyes widened. But then he shook his head again, because he saw Xiao Zuochen shaking his head slightly at him, as if to ask him to deny it. He didn't know why, but he inexplicably wanted to listen to Xiao Zuochen's words.

"Really?"

Seeing that he was repeating himself, Yueying couldn't help but ask again. She turned her head to see Xiao Zuochen's reaction, but saw that he just lowered his head and counted his fingers.

"It's nothing really. I just woke up and am a little confused."

"Okay, if you have anything to say later, just tell me. I won't let them bully you."

Xiao Zuoming didn't expect Yueying to say such a thing. He looked at Xiao Zuochen in a daze, asking him what was going on with his eyes.

Xiao Zuochen nodded and told him to relax. Seeing Xiao Zuochen's reaction, Xiao Zuoming dared to nod towards Yueying.

"You should take good care of your injuries first. We can discuss anything after you recover. Yueying, Mu Dai needs you to write a letter to let them know, so as to avoid any trouble."

Yueying listened and turned her head away with some sarcasm.

"So should I write according to my own ideas, or according to His Royal Highness Prince Yun's ideas?"

"Full moon?"

Xiao Zuoming called her name weakly, feeling that something seemed to have happened between them, and the atmosphere was a little subtle.

Yueying sighed and looked at Xiao Zuoming helplessly.

"Then write according to the emperor's ideas. When you are better, you can tell me and I will write."

So the next day, Mu Dai received a letter from Yue Ying via carrier pigeon. The letter roughly stated that when Yue Ying was fighting with the assassin, Xiao Zuo Ming was seriously injured in order to block the sword for Yue Ying, but he was no longer in danger and could walk.

"Humph, the City Lord's Mansion is probably the safest place in Wangyan City. How could the assassin choose that place to carry out the assassination? Yueying has now begun to help them conceal it. I don't know whether this will benefit the emperor or she has also been coerced by Prince Yun!"

At this time, Mu Dai had already led his troops to retreat towards Tai'an City.

"Commander, then we..."

"Keep retreating!"

"Yes!"

Another three or four days passed before Xiao Zuoming was able to get out of bed, but he had to be supported by Yueying.

"The wound has just healed and it is easy to tear. I suggest you stay in bed for a few more days."

After instructing Yueying on how to change the dressing, the white-bearded old man gave her a few more instructions. But Xiao Zuoming couldn't stay in bed any longer, so the old man reluctantly agreed that he could get out of bed and walk with the help of others.

"Remember not to get out of bed alone, the wound will open up! Keep an eye on him."

"Okay, thank you~"

After the old man left, Xiao Zuoming and Yueying looked at each other and then sighed.

"Why are you sighing~"

Yueying asked.

"Of course it's because I can't go out and have fun, and I can only be stuck in this bed. Then why are you sighing?"

Xiao Zuoming asked back.

"I was just wondering, why did you block that sword for me? If you hadn't blocked that sword, you could go out and have fun now."

Xiao Zuoming was stunned for a moment. In fact, he didn't know what happened at that time. He just felt dizzy and then a sword stabbed him. His mind was blank at that time. Now he thought that Chu Yao and Xiao Zuochen had such a reaction in order to make Yueying owe them a life, so that she could cover for them after returning. They put him here, and now he just followed Yueying's words.

"That makes sense! But if that's the case, you'd be the one lying on the bed~"

Yueying frowned, then looked at Xiao Zuoming and said something in a self-deprecating tone.

"If it were Emperor Mingren, he would definitely not care about my life or death."

However, Xiao Zuoming subconsciously asked a question that stunned Yueying.

"Who do you want me to be?"
