"Awan——"

Xie Sui woke up from the nightmare, gasping for breath, with fear lingering in his eyes.

Wei Heng poured him a glass of warm water and asked, "Are you awake?"

"You two are such a hassle, and I'm the one who suffers in the end."

He took the teacup, "How is she?"

"I woke up once, took some medicine and went back to sleep."

Xie Sui was about to stand up after hearing this, but Wei Heng stopped him and said sternly, "Do you want to die? The fever has just subsided and you want to go out again. I think you are really tired of living."

Xie Sui didn't say anything and lay back down.

When Wei Heng heard him say this, she put the back of her hand on Xie Sui's forehead, wondering if he had a brain burn.

It’s strange, why are Xie Shi and Jin Ru so obedient?

……

Day two.

Yu Guiwan was awakened by the pain of her wound. As soon as she opened her eyes, she found that it was Yang Nian standing in front of the bed.

"Awan, you're finally awake. I was so worried." Yang Nian's eyes were slightly red, and she smiled when she saw Yu Guiwan wake up.

"Mom, why are you here?"

Yu Guiwan asked, and just as he was about to raise his hand, he hissed in pain.

Only then did she remember how she had killed the assassin yesterday and successfully returned to Meilin Courtyard and finally saw Xie Sui.

Yang Nian asked Furong to bring two pillows for Yu Guiwan to lean on so she could feel more comfortable. "You're already injured like this, why shouldn't I come?"

"You and your brother have been in trouble one after another. I don't know what I have done wrong to deserve such kindness from God."

Yang Nian wiped away her tears again as she spoke.

"Mom, I'm fine. Even if someone wants to harm me, I won't sit and wait for death." Yu Guiwan frowned slightly, and a hint of cold murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

"Has the Shen family come to visit recently?" She changed the subject again.

Speaking of this, Yang Nian couldn't help but feel angry. "You're right. A few days ago, the Shen family came to visit your brother, but I refused them on the pretext that your brother needed to recuperate and not see guests."

"But I didn't expect that he would come again the next day. I simply closed the door and refused to see him."

Yu Guiwan smiled and said, "That's how it should be. It's definitely not good news if they show up unexpectedly."

"Don't worry about you. I will stay in the mansion to take care of you for the next two days." Yang Nian felt more and more that A Wan was different from before. He had become more thoughtful and more stable than before.

"We?" she murmured.

"Yes, I heard from Fuqiu that the prince caught a cold in the corridor yesterday because of you and fell ill last night." Yang Nian was really worried about Xie Sui's health now, so he decided to stay in Prince Chen's mansion for two more days to take care of them both.

Hearing that Xie Sui had fallen ill, her eyes were filled with anxiety that she herself hadn't noticed, "So how is he now?"

"The fever subsided in the middle of the night, and I was able to get out of bed this morning."

Yu Guiwan was relieved at last, as long as he was okay.

In the afternoon, Xie Sui came to see Yu Guiwan once, and then Wei Heng nagged him to go back to his room and lie down, so as not to catch a cold just after the fever subsided.

Xie Sui was being watched by Wei Heng, and Yu Guiwan was being watched by Yang Nian. Whenever she wanted to get out of bed and walk around, Yang Nian stopped her with a look, so she didn't dare mention it again.

She was lying in bed bored, so Fuqiu told Yu Guiwan about what happened yesterday.

"Both of them were beaten?" She was a little surprised.

"Yes, the news that the couple was beaten has spread throughout the capital this morning. Your father said that many court officials impeached Prince Chen at the morning court session and asked His Majesty to severely punish Prince Chen. His Majesty was so angry that he threw the memorial away." There was some worry in Yang Nian's tone.

Xie Yunqi had really put in a lot of effort. Yesterday at Meilin Courtyard, knowing that he had been beaten, who would dare to tell anyone about it? And thus embarrass Xie Yunqi?

This matter was probably spread by Xie Yunqi, who then joined forces with court officials to impeach Xie Sui.

Xie Yunqi could have skipped the morning court session due to his injury, but he chose to go despite his injury, which further angered everyone in the court and the country towards Xie Sui.

……

Xie Sui naturally knew about the court officials' impeachment of him, "If that's the case, then let's release what Princess Ping did."

Didn't Xie Yunqi deliberately suppress this matter just to punish him for the crime of lynching?

Once what Fu Yan did is exposed, let’s see what he has to say.

"Yes, Your Highness, His Majesty has sent another message, asking you to take good care of your health first and not to worry about other things for the time being. Just pretend you didn't hear it." Bei Chu conveyed the words from the palace.

"Let's go to the palace first." Xie Sui frowned and thought for a long time.

"No."

These words were heard by Wei Heng who had just come in. He was so angry that he glared at Xie Sui.

I just praised him last night and started again today.

Suddenly, a sly glint flashed in Wei Heng's eyes, seizing Xie Sui's weakness. "If you insist on entering the palace at this time, I will tell the princess."

"She won't notice me."

Xie Sui spoke lightly, with a tone of grievance and inferiority.

Wei Heng looked at the hypocritical Xie Sui and couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart.

"Who said she doesn't care about you anymore? She asked me about you when I went there at noon."

"Really?"

Xie Sui's eyelashes moved slightly, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you?" Wei Heng did not lie to Xie Sui. When Yu Guiwan saw him today, he did ask him about Xie Sui's physical condition.

"Cough, cough, cough." Xie Sui pretended to cough a few times before speaking, "I do feel unwell, so I'll wait a few days before entering the palace."

Wei Heng: “…”

*

In the past few days, Xie Yunqi stayed in Shen Yunmiao's yard every day and refused to see Fu Yan. Fu Yan was so angry that he went back to live in Fu Mansion. This gave Shen Yunmiao an opportunity to take advantage of.

"Your Highness has suffered so much these past few days. The princess is really something. She even caused Your Highness to get injured." Shen Yunmiao peeled the orange and fed it into Xie Yunqi's mouth, looking at him with tears in her eyes.

Xie Yunqi felt much more at ease when he saw the gentle Shen Yunmiao.

"You are still gentle and lovely." Xie Yunqi lifted her chin. Considering what Fu Yan had done before, he felt that Shen Yunmiao was now particularly liked by him.

"How's the task I asked you to do going?"

How could Shen Yunmiao dare to tell the truth? The Shen family hadn't even met the Yu family, so they could only pretend to be ignorant.

"I heard that Yu Yanlin was injured, so the Yu family closed their doors to visitors. However, my mother and others have already sent supplements, and the Yu family has accepted them."

"After all, the Shen family and the Yu family are brothers-in-law. Now that they are willing to accept the gift, as long as more time passes, the relationship will surely be restored to its original state."

Shen Yunmiao spoke cautiously, fearing that it would displease Xie Yunqi.

Xie Yunqi patted her hands and said with satisfaction: "That's good. I'll be waiting for your good news."

"Don't worry, Your Highness."

Shen Yunmiao smiled faintly, peeled another orange slice and put it into Xie Yunqi's mouth, but she was feeling uneasy in her heart.

She absolutely cannot fail again this time, otherwise she will really have no status in the palace.
