Early next morning

Jiuyi knocked on Feng Zhaoyun's door, "Your Highness..."

After a while, Feng Zhaoyun opened the door wearing a white inner garment and said, "Change your clothes."

Jiu nodded, "Yes."

The maids came in and helped Feng Zhaoyun wash and change her clothes.

Jiuyi dismissed the maid, "Your Highness, I followed Bai Xielin secretly as you instructed, and found that Bai Xielin went out early this morning."

Feng Zhaoyun straightened his clothes and said, "Well, keep following. Don't alert the enemy."

Jiuyi accepted the order and said, "Yes."

At this time, the guards outside the courtyard came in and reported, "Your Highness, Master Bai Ling has arrived."

Feng Zhaoyun frowned, "What is he here for?" Then he looked at Jiuyi in confusion.

Jiuyi quickly lowered his head and thought to himself, what else can I do? I’m just a crazy fan.

The personal guard knelt on the ground, "Mr. Bai seems to be holding a food box in his hand."

Feng Zhaoyun: "Let him in."

Knowing that she could come in, Bai Lingzhi's expression became much happier. When she entered the main courtyard, she saw Feng Zhaoyun sitting next to a stone chair in the garden.

Bai Lingzhi hurried forward, "Greetings, Your Highness."

Feng Zhaoyun raised his eyes and looked at him, "Get up, what can I do for you, Mr. Bai?"

Bai Lingzhi raised her head shyly, "Your Highness, this is the breakfast I made for you. It's some pastries. Would you like to try it?"

Jiuyi stepped forward and scolded, "Mr. Bai, how can you address me in front of His Highness?"

Feng Zhaoyun chuckled, "Forget it, just carry it up."

Bai Lingzhi handed the food box to Jiuyi. Jiuyi took it and put the food out of the box one by one. It looked quite appetizing.

Feng Zhaoyun noticed Bai Lingzhi's fingers wrapped in gauze, "What's wrong with your hand?"

Bai Lingzhi quickly hid her hands behind her back, "Oh, no, I accidentally burned myself."

Feng Zhaoyun looked at a bowl of sweet porridge, picked it up, and it smelled quite fragrant. He looked up and saw Bai Lingzhi with anticipation on his face.

Jiuyi rolled his eyes at him, his thoughts almost written all over his face.

Jiuyi stepped forward and took out a silver needle to test for poison. The silver needle did not turn black, so it was non-toxic.

Bai Lingzhi curled her lips, and Feng Zhaoyun smiled gently, "Don't be offended, Mr. Bai, it's just a routine check."

Bai Lingzhi nodded and looked at Feng Zhaoyun like a fangirl. His Highness looked so beautiful when he smiled.

Feng Zhaoyun gently picked up the spoon and took a sip. This...

Looking up at Bai Lingzhi, Bai Lingzhi asked weakly, "Your Highness... is it... delicious?"

Feng Zhaoyun took a handkerchief, covered her mouth, and spit on the handkerchief. It was like turning sugar into salt, so salty.

Jiuyi sighed after noticing that the food tasted bad, and quickly poured Feng Zhaoyun a cup of tea. "Your Highness, have some tea."

Feng Zhaoyun suddenly picked up the tea and drank it all in one gulp. He wiped his mouth and looked at him, "Mr. Bai, you don't have to cook and deliver the food yourself in the future."

Bai Lingzhi's face suddenly felt disappointed, "Your Highness...it's not tasty."

Feng Zhaoyun coughed lightly, "Mr. Bai, is there anything else? If not, please leave."

Bai Lingzhi hurriedly took a step forward, but was stopped by Jiuyi, "Your Highness, I would like to invite you to go rafting, is that okay?"

Jiuyi was stunned, his eyes widened. This...

Feng Zhaoyun shook her head helplessly. She knew what he meant. "Mr. Bai, I'm busy with official business. If you have nothing else to do, please leave."

Bai Lingyi looked disappointed, "Oh... Your Highness, I'm leaving..."

Bai Lingzhi was about to turn around when Feng Zhaoyun suddenly called him, "Wait..."

Bai Lingzhi turned around excitedly, looking happy, "Your Highness, have you changed your mind?"

Feng Zhaoyun was helpless, "Mr. Bai, do you have an older brother or a younger brother?"

Bai Lingzhi nodded, "Yes, Your Highness, I have an older brother. He is in poor health and has lived in his own courtyard for a long time. He rarely goes out, and I have only seen him a few times. He also has two older sisters."

Feng Zhaoyun nodded. "Did your sister get kidnapped when the bandits entered the city this time?"

Bai Lingzhi shook her head. "My two elder sisters made a mistake that day and were kneeling in Mother's room all night. They were not in the room, so fortunately they were not abducted."

Feng Zhaoyun smiled and said, "Well, please step back."

Bai Lingzhi looked at her disappointedly, "Oh... then I'll leave..." and then turned and walked out of the yard.

Jiuyi stepped forward and said, "Master, this Bai Mansion is indeed colluding with bandits."

Feng Zhaoyun poured a cup of tea and took a sip. The porridge was really salty. "Let's go! Let's go see the eldest son of the Bai family!"

Feng Zhaoyun led Jiuyi out of the courtyard and called the maid. Jiuyi stepped forward and said, "Your eldest son is in the mansion. Lead the way!"

The maid knelt down and said, "Yes, yes..."

After saying that, he stood up and took Feng Zhaoyun and the others to the courtyard of the Bai family's eldest son.

When they reached the courtyard gate, a servant suddenly came out and stopped the maid and Feng Zhaoyun, saying, "The young master is resting, you can't go in."

Jiuyi stepped forward and scolded, "How dare you! How dare you stop His Highness the War King!"

The servant knelt down hurriedly, "Your Highness... I dare not, but the Master said that he will not see any visitors these days."

Jiuyi: "Lead the way!"

The servant did not dare to disobey, pushed open the door, and led Feng Zhaoyun and others into the yard.

As soon as I entered the yard, I smelled a strong smell of medicine and heard a cough.

The servant brought Feng Zhaoyun to the door of the eldest master's bedroom, "The young master is inside."

Feng Zhaoyun walked in and Jiuyi pushed open the door.

At this time, Bai Mohan was lying on the bed. He was wearing a white inner garment and his outer robe was casually draped over his head. His hair was loose, his eyebrows were slender, and he looked very handsome, but his face was pale and a little sick. He really looked like a person who had been ill for many years.

But Feng Zhaoyun always felt that he had seen this somewhere before.

Bai Mohan looked at the newcomer, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. He covered his chest with his hands and started coughing violently, "You... cough cough... who are you?"

Jiuyi was about to step forward when Feng Zhaoyun stopped her.

Feng Zhaoyun walked into the bedroom, sat at the table, and looked at him, "Didn't your mother tell you who I am?"

Bai Mohan held a handkerchief to his mouth, and the attendant beside him helped him sit up. "I didn't know His Highness had arrived. I pay my respects to His Highness."

Feng Zhaoyun glanced at the hand supporting Bai Mohan's attendant, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "It's okay, I heard that Mr. Bai has been ill for a long time, so I came to see you."

Bai Mohan forced a smile, "Thank you, Your Highness...for your concern..."

Feng Zhaoyun stood up and said, "I will take my leave. Young Master, have a good rest."

After saying that, he left without looking back...
