As a powerful country, Nansu would naturally take in some princes sent by its vassal small countries as hostages.

In order to take in these hostages and keep them under his watch, Emperor Nansu specially built a Fuchen Palace in the palace for these hostages to live in.

The name of Fuchen Hall comes from "bowing down as a subject", which is enough to show the emperor's thoughts on these hostages. Therefore, as a hostage from the western border who was sent to the Kingdom of Nansu since childhood, Liu Yi's life is not easy.

Liu Yi was not qualified to attend such a grand banquet as today, so he just walked around in the remote corners of the imperial garden.

But there were really a lot of people attending the banquet today. Even in the remote corners of the Imperial Garden, there were many people coming and going. What happened was that the people Liu Yi met were the same group of second-generation rich people who liked to tease him since he was a child.

Liu Yi was unable to avoid it and was stopped by this group of second-generation rich people and ridiculed and teased.

When he was at his most embarrassed, Jiang Zihan came down like a god, protecting him behind him and glaring at the group of second-generation rich kids, "Why are you bullying him!"

Jiang Zihan has become a big celebrity in the imperial city recently.

A real daughter of the prime minister's family who had been missing for many years was involved in a major case in the imperial city not long after she came back. After a visit to the Dali Temple, these second-generation rich people naturally recognized her.

No matter how they treat Jiang Zihan behind his back, at least they dare not offend him easily in person.

"Miss Jiang Er has misunderstood. We just haven't seen the Young Master of Western Frontier for a long time and wanted to say hello to him!"

"Yes, although we don't hold any official positions, we are from aristocratic families after all. How could we possibly do something like bullying others?"

"We often greet the Young Master of Western Frontier like this, and the Emperor knows it. This is how we men greet each other. Second Miss Jiang is a woman, so it's normal for her not to understand these things."

"We are both men. It's not good for Miss Jiang to be here alone. Why don't you leave first? We are also doing this for the sake of Miss Jiang's reputation."

These words, which sounded like both warnings and advice, could be understood by anyone with a bit of common sense, and Jiang Zihan was certainly not stupid.

But as a "child of the rivers and lakes", she should help when she sees injustice. Of course, she would not leave just because of a few words.

"You call it greeting to bully someone like this? Do you think I'm a fool?" Jiang Zihan pointed at the disheveled Liu Yi behind him and asked angrily.

Even after being given a way out, they refused to give up. The expressions of those second-generation rich kids changed immediately.

Being called the second generation rich, their family backgrounds are naturally not bad. Even if they take into consideration Jiang Zihan's identity as the daughter of the prime minister, they will not be too wary.

Liu Yi grew up in the Nansu Palace, enduring cold words and indifference. His best skill is observing people's words and expressions.

Seeing the expressions of those second-generation rich kids changed, he immediately said, "Thank you for your concern, Miss Jiang. The young masters were indeed greeting me, but I was weak, so Miss Jiang misunderstood."

He has always been low-key. In the past, when he met these people, he would either avoid them directly or pretend to be obedient, and then leave naturally when they were no longer interested in playing.

He knows his limits and won't really suffer at the hands of these people, so he just needs to be patient.

But Jiang Zihan obviously doesn't think so.

"This is the imperial palace. No matter how prominent their status is, they shouldn't treat you like this." Jiang Zihan glared at them angrily. "When I was in the martial arts world, what I hated most were scum who bullied others by taking advantage of their power!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of several second-generation rich people instantly darkened, and they no longer had the intention to persuade them with kind words.

They did like to bully others by taking advantage of their power, and were indeed the scum of the noble families in the imperial city, but no one dared to say such things to their faces.

Just when a few people were about to explode, a violent cough suddenly interrupted them.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Liu Yi covered his mouth, his face turned pale from coughing. With his other hand, he grabbed the servant beside him, and his body swayed weakly several times.

Everyone's attention was drawn to it, and the tension that was about to rise was instantly broken.

Jiang Zihan turned around nervously and worriedly, "What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Liu Yi kept coughing and seemed unable to answer her, but no one saw him grab the servant's hand and squeeze it gently.

The servant immediately replied nervously, "My young master has been weak since childhood and has to take medicine every day. Fortunately, the emperor is kind and has always ordered the Imperial Hospital to prepare medicine for my young master. Perhaps he caught a cold here, and my young master is feeling unwell again."

This servant was quite clever. Not only did he explain that Liu Yi was in poor health with just one sentence, he also reminded those second-generation rich kids that the emperor had always asked the Imperial Hospital to prepare medicine for his young master, proving that the emperor cared about his young master.

Jiang Zihan didn't hear so much. When he heard that Liu Yi had to take medicine every day, he quickly reached out to grab his wrist, wanting to take his pulse to see what was going on.

But as soon as her hand touched her sleeve, Liu Yi stepped back and said, "There are differences between men and women. Thank you for your concern, Miss Jiang. I'm fine."

After saying this short sentence, he coughed a few more times, and his lips turned a little paler.

Jiang Zihan frowned, "I'm a doctor. I only care about patients, not men or women. If you trust me, let me see. I'm much better than those old stubborn people in the Imperial Hospital. I can definitely cure you!"

Before even seeing Liu Yi's condition, she patted her chest and made a promise with great confidence, which was enough to show how confident she was in her medical skills.

Jiang Wansang stood in the corner watching the show for a long time, until she heard Jiang Zihan say this, she finally came out.

Jiang Zihan in the book came into contact with Liu Yi because of this "promise". After a few interactions, Liu Yi was attracted to this kind, confident and unique woman, and put all his heart on her.

When he learned that the woman he loved had a lover, he did not fight for it. He was even willing to give up everything he had worked hard for in the first half of his life in order to help the two of them be together.

Liu Yike is the most powerful helper around Jiang Zihan. Jiang Wansang will certainly not leave this affectionate and firm helper to her.

"Clap clap clap!"

Accompanied by crisp applause, Jiang Wansang walked out in the surprised gaze of everyone.

She looked at Jiang Zihan with a smile, "I've seen many stories of heroes saving beauties, but this is the first time I've seen a beauty saving a hero."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at those second-generation rich kids and continued, "My sister was born in the martial arts world. She is upright and has great martial arts skills. She can't stand people like you who bully others by taking advantage of your power. She only called you scum and didn't attack you directly. She was showing you mercy."

Several second-generation rich people knew Jiang Wansang, and when they heard her say this, they immediately refuted: "She's just a woman, we shouldn't be afraid of her."

"My sister is the daughter of the Prime Minister. Not only does she make medicine and poison, she's also skilled in martial arts. Of course you should be afraid of her," Jiang Wansang replied quickly, her disdain evident on her face. "Even all of you pampered young masters combined are no match for her!"

"How dare you look down on us?"

"It's not that I look down on you, it's my sister. She is really better than you."

Before Jiang Zihan could even say a word, Jiang Wansang became the enmity of everyone.

When she came to her senses, she saw those second-generation rich kids staring at her with angry eyes.
