The curtain was lifted, and a breeze mixed with a hint of coolness blew in.

Si Yan raised his eyes slightly and saw Qi Ziyu in a purple robe slowly walking in.

Qi Ziyu looked unhappy. Si Yan put down his chopsticks and asked, "Is the prince feeling unwell?"

Si Yan already knew a lot about Qi Ziyu's body.

Yunqiao always stays by Qi Ziyu's side and reports his physical condition to Si Yan regularly.

He looked so pale, it must be a relapse of his old illness, causing angina pectoris.

"No." Qi Ziyu chuckled and shook his head, looking at the woman who stood up to greet him.

"Ayan, call me Ziyu."

"It's against the rules."

Si Yan made a gesture of invitation, indicating Qi Ziyu to sit on the stool opposite.

Boya arranged it very carefully, and this small stool is even cushioned.

Qi Ziyu sat down, and Si Yan said casually, "If anyone knew that I no longer bowed to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they would definitely report me to the court."

"Who dares to intervene?" Qi Ziyu raised his eyebrows. "Rules and malpractices are all made by people. Besides, there are only two of us now, so what rules are there?"

Qi Ziyu looked at the woman in front of him and didn't want to go so far with her.

He didn't want to distance himself from them because of their status and various etiquette.

Maybe to A Yan, he is not her closest person.

But to him, A Yan is the person closest to him.

"Okay, I understand." Si Yan nodded and looked up at Qi Ziyu.

"Have you eaten? If not, let's eat together."

"I've eaten." Qi Ziyu replied.

He raised his eyes to look at the layout inside the tent, and his gaze swept over the clothes that Si Yan had taken off. The white clothes were torn in many places and were spotted with blood. There were also bloodstains on a black cloak next to it.

Qi Ziyu knew at a glance that the cloak belonged to Yan Longyi.

"Then eat some more." Si Yan said.

Qi Ziyu had no appetite at all. He felt a dull pain in his chest and his stomach was a little uncomfortable.

He pulled the corners of his lips apart and forced a smile on his face: "Ayan, I asked Si Ru to come over. I'll let her take a look at your injuries later."

Si Yan was slightly stunned: "They are just minor injuries. I have already applied medicine."

"I've sent someone to call her. She'll be here soon." Qi Ziyu insisted.

There was a slight silence in the air, and Si Yan slowly ate the food in the bowl.

The meals prepared by the people at Yayue Pavilion are always so unique.

Today we cooked fish, mushrooms, and wild vegetables. The wild vegetables from the mountain fields were extremely refreshing and stimulated the taste buds.

This mushroom is also wild, original and extremely fresh.

It is not difficult to see that there are people in Yayue Pavilion who are specifically responsible for meals, even when they are in the wild or even when they are in danger.

This also indirectly illustrates the powerful forces behind the Bo family.

Si Yan was really hungry and a little tired today. She ate her food with big mouthfuls in the silence of the man opposite her.

Qi Ziyu didn't say anything else. He actually came here for no other reason than to see her.

Si Yan finished his meal after a while.

She put down her chopsticks and gently raised her eyes to look at the man opposite her: "Zi Yu..."

"Ayan?" Qi Ziyu came back to his senses and looked back at Si Yan.

"We coordinated well today, luring the rebels into Deepwater Bay and defeating them in one fell swoop. This was exactly my goal."

"Yes, but I couldn't help Ah Yan..."

Qi Ziyu opened his lips, his throat choked a little, as if something was stuck.

As soon as Si Yan heard Qi Ziyu's hoarse voice, he immediately understood everything.

"Are you afraid that I will never come back?" Si Yan asked.

Qi Ziyu's eyes were red: "Ayan, I really can't imagine, if something happened to you...what should I do? What should Daxuan do?"

Whenever he thought about Ah Yan leading more than 200 people to fight against more than 2,000 people from Beimang Kingdom today, but he couldn't do anything, his heart seemed to be grabbed by something.

Si Yan looked at the man in front of him: "Didn't I tell you that I won't let you carry it alone?"

Qi Ziyu was silent for a moment: "Yes."

"Do you think I would abandon Daxuan and let you face this mess alone?"

"..."

"Since I dare to go, I know that I will be fine, so what are you worried about?"

"..."

"Now that I'm standing in front of you, there's no need to worry."

Qi Ziyu was silent for a moment: "I hate myself for not being able to help you when you needed it the most."

"You have to know that if you didn't take action, it was because I asked you to do it. You did what I wanted you to do."

"You are always right." Qi Ziyu muttered, and his tense nerves relaxed.

He remembered that last year at the border, no one could persuade him, but this girl persuaded him to go to the frontier against the imperial edict with just a few words.

"I said I wouldn't abandon you and let you face the situation in Daxuan alone. Similarly, you can't abandon me..."

"Ayan." Qi Ziyu felt a weight on his shoulders and once again felt the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

Yes, he needs A Yan, and A Yan needs him too!

He must be a good prince and become the emperor in the future so that he can support everything A Yan wants to do.

The two of them are indispensable, and Ayan needs him.

Si Yan said coldly, "I don't want to repeat myself. Qi Ziyu, you must take care of yourself. If you die one day, what will I do?"

"No." Qi Ziyu's eyes were filled with tenderness, and his dry heart seemed to have suddenly been revived by a refreshing rain.

"But I see your health is getting worse and worse."

Qi Ziyu was embarrassed for a moment: "I have a little heartache today, I will be fine after two days of rest."

"Then have a good rest." Si Yan said seriously.

"Okay, I understand." Qi Ziyu was stunned by the scolding, but he felt very satisfied in his heart.

A Yan never treated him as an outsider, nor did he avoid him just because he was with Yan Longyi.

He and A Yan, like the fate of Prince Yong's Mansion and Situ's Mansion, are still one.

At this moment, Zuo Hang's voice came from outside the tent: "Your Highness, Miss Si Ru is here."

"Let her in." Qi Ziyu said to the outside of the tent.

Si Ru opened the curtain, walked in from outside, and hurried to Si Yan: "Sister Yan, are you injured? Let me take a look at you."

Si Yan looked at the little girl's nervous expression and couldn't help but smiled and said, "I'm fine, just some minor injuries."

Si Ru breathed a sigh of relief, checked Si Yan's expression, and took her pulse. Seeing that she was fine, she felt relieved.

"Sister Yan is a little tired and needs to rest early."

"Yes." Si Yan nodded, "You came at the right time. Let the prince take a look."

Si Ru immediately turned around and looked at Qi Ziyu: "Is the Crown Prince feeling unwell?"

"No, it's okay..." Qi Ziyu shook his head like a rattle.

Si Ru stared at Qi Ziyu's face: "How come you're okay? Your face and lips are so pale."

"I'm really fine, Ayan, I'm going to go back and rest first."

After Qi Ziyu finished speaking, he left as if escaping.

Ever since the genius doctor Yunya asked Si Ru to treat him, she would give him acupuncture at every turn. He was afraid of her...

Si Ru looked at Si Yan: "Sister Yan, I'll go check on the prince."

"Well, go ahead." Si Yan said.

"Prince, wait for me."

Si Ru chased after him in one breath, and after he walked away, he couldn't help but sigh.

The prince's heartache for Sister Yan has come back again...
