She covered her lips to prevent herself from crying out loud. Si Zhengxuan saw it and felt heartbroken.

"Awei, don't cry..." Si Zhengxuan raised his hand slightly, but didn't dare to move closer. "I am sorry for you."

"You haven't wronged me. I did everything willingly, and I'm happy with it." Lan Wei looked at Si Zhengxuan with tears in her eyes. "But I don't want you to avoid me like this. Then, you won't leave me at any time..."

He was infected with the plague and didn't know how many days he could live. She had to stay with him, even if it meant death...

She could accept that he didn't love her, and could accept that he would never respond to her, but she couldn't accept that he left her in this way.

"Zhengxuan, you can die, but you must take me with you." Lan Wei's voice became hoarse, and she tried her best to control her emotions.

"What's the matter with you?"

"I love you." Lan Wei finally spoke the words that had been hidden in her heart for over a decade. "If you die, I can't live either."

They are not young anymore, and after more than ten years of waiting, she gradually calmed down.

She didn't have to marry him. She was satisfied just by looking at him and being by his side.

He was her savior and the man she loved deeply all her life.

When they first met, she learned that his wife had been dead for five years, and that for the sake of his children, he had never remarried even though the door of the Situ Mansion was almost broken down by people who came to the capital to propose marriage for him, so she decided to stay with him.

As she got to know him better, as she saw him fight against the Xin siblings single-handedly, and as she saw him go to great lengths to save Daxuan, she felt the heavy responsibility that weighed on him.

He is a pillar of the country and a loyal minister of Daxuan. He shoulders the heavy responsibility of saving the court and protecting his country, while she is just a little woman who only wants to take care of him.

Si Zhengxuan didn't know how to start for a moment, as he always knew Lan Wei's feelings.

A woman who has followed him for more than ten years without expecting anything in return, it would be a lie to say that she is not moved.

However, now that he was infected with the plague, he really didn't want to implicate her.

Lan Wei wiped away her tears. "I know you've never thought about getting married again because of Qingshan and Yan'er. I don't need a formal status, Zhengxuan. I just want to stay by your side and see that you're well. I don't want anything else, just that you're well."

"Why are you so stupid?" Si Zhengxuan felt as if his throat was blocked by something and he felt very uncomfortable.

"Because you're worth it." Lan Wei opened her lips slightly, a gentle smile on her face.

When they met for the first time, he was heroic and domineering, fighting alone against many enemies and saving her from the bandits.

At that time, she was just a young girl who knew some kung fu and was fascinated by his temperament. Now, she is already an old girl.

But her heart never changed from beginning to end.

If he had his own love, she would let go and leave, but the one he loved was no longer there...

Lan Wei's eyes sparkled with tears: "Zhengxuan, can't you just give me a hug? I just want a hug."

"I'm infected with the plague." Si Zhengxuan's voice was hoarse.

"You agree?"

"When I recover from the disease..."

Before Si Zhengxuan could finish his words, Lan Wei rushed over and hugged him.

She was as fast as a phantom, and Si Zhengxuan didn't have time to push her away. She was so strong that Si Zhengxuan couldn't break free.

Si Zhengxuan knew that she had been practicing martial arts diligently over the years and had made considerable progress, but he had never expected that she had already become a master of martial arts.

"You are such a fool." Si Zhengxuan finally raised his hand and put his arm around Lan Wei's shoulders.

The two hugged each other and did not separate for a long time.

Lan Wei's tears fell like rain, soaking Si Zhengxuan's clothes. She gently patted Si Zhengxuan's shoulder: "It's true that once you meet the master, you will ruin your life. Fortunately, the cold heart of Master Situ has finally softened for once."

"Put on your veil." Si Zhengxuan gently let go of the woman in front of him and spoke rationally.

Lan Wei nodded, put on the veil obediently, and hugged Si Zhengxuan again, as if she was holding a priceless treasure.

"Master, when the plague first broke out, I sent someone to buy medicine. It will arrive in two or three days. You must hold on."

She didn't have that much ability to save all the soldiers. She just wanted to try her best to save the man in front of her, the one she loved.

She was worried that he would also be infected with the plague, so she made plans in advance and sent her people to buy medicine day and night.

"Silly girl..." Si Zhengxuan couldn't help but raise his hand and rub her hair. When he saved her, she was just a little girl of sixteen or seventeen years old.

Lan Wei smiled: "I'm not stupid. I have the best man in the world now, even though I waited a little long."

"What a silly girl..." Si Zhengxuan's heart softened. He had made this girl wait for too long.

"Father, Aunt Lan." Suddenly, a crisp voice came from outside the tent.

While Si Zhengxuan and Lan Wei were stunned, Si Yan and Boya had already walked in.

The two of them quickly separated. Si Zhengxuan's old face turned red instantly, and Lan Wei's heart was pounding, her heart beating faster than when she had just hugged Si Zhengxuan.

Si Yan had a veil on his face, but that didn't stop Si Zhengxuan and Lan Wei from recognizing him immediately.

"Yan'er, don't come near your father." Si Zhengxuan tried his best to calm down, and his already hot face became even hotter.

He was very sure that if Yan'er saw what happened just now, what would she think?

Lan Wei was also embarrassed. She didn't expect to be seen by the child.

Thinking of the plague in the army, Lan Wei couldn't care less: "Yan'er, there's a plague here, I'm afraid it's contagious..."

"Auntie Lan, aren't you afraid of infection?" Si Yan smiled faintly and looked at Lan Wei.

When Lan Wei heard Si Yan ask this, she didn't understand for a moment whether the little girl had any hidden meaning.

"I……"

Lan Wei was just thinking about how to start when Si Yan smiled. "Auntie Lan is really discerning. My father is a very good man. He loves my brother and me so much. If you marry him, he will love you very much too."

Lan Wei couldn't help but blush, but she also heard that Yan'er would not stop her from being with Zhengxuan.

Si Yan turned to look at Si Zhengxuan: "Father, if you miss Aunt Lan, you will never find a woman who treats you so well in this life."

"You girl..." A smile appeared in Si Zhengxuan's eyes.

This girl and her brother have liked Lan Wei since they were young. He wasn't worried, but his body...

"Master Situ, I have some fever-reducing medicine here. Please take it first. In two days, the medicine to treat the plague will be delivered."

Beside Si Yan, Boya, who was also wearing a face mask, took out two packets of medicine.

These were the medicines prepared by Boya. He knew that the plague had once spread on the grassland, so he prepared a small amount of medicine and had his men carry it with them when they marched.

There is not much of this medicine, and it cannot be distributed to every soldier in the army, so it can only be given to the most important people first.

"Thank you, Mr. Bo." Si Zhengxuan politely bowed to Boya.

Boya quickly returned the greeting: "Master Situ, you are welcome."

"I'll go make the medicine." Lan Wei looked at Boya with gratitude, her eyes full of surprise.

This medicine came just in time.

Si Yan looked at Si Zhengxuan, who had almost retreated to a corner after seeing her and Boya, and said, "Father, shall we discuss military affairs?"

"Okay, you stay there, don't get too close to father, and just discuss it like this."

Si Zhengxuan looked at his most beloved daughters and was really worried about spreading the plague to them.
