Emperor Yong'an had just finished feeding the child and put down the cup when he saw Zhiyue hurried back with clothes.

"What took you so long?"

Zhiyue quickly knelt and replied, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I happened to run into the young master on my way back just now, and he asked me about the young lady's situation... I took the initiative to conceal the past and will make a decision after the young lady wakes up."

Emperor Yong'an nodded, knowing that she must not have told her family about what happened between them, so it would be better to keep it a secret for the time being.

He will soon welcome her into the palace openly...

"She's dried off. Go help her put on her clothes first."

Zhiyue threw away her clothes and walked towards the bed with a tense expression. She slowly lifted the young lady's quilt. Suddenly, her eyes widened and she stared at the young lady who was naked in the quilt in disbelief.

Was it the Emperor himself who did this? His heart was filled with turmoil, yet he did not dare to question the Emperor sitting at the table.

He quickly controlled his expression, gently helped the young lady put on her dress, and changed the handkerchief to continue the wet compress.

After that, Eunuch Baoshun also came in with the medicine prepared by the imperial physician. Emperor Yong'an took the medicine bowl and asked Zhiyue to help Shen Leyan stand up so that it would be easier to feed her the medicine.

Zhiyue held the young lady's shoulders with both hands and quietly observed the emperor carefully feeding the young lady medicine. Her eyes suddenly tightened and she fell into shock.

Although Bao Shun below had long known that the emperor treated Miss Shen differently, he was still surprised for a moment when he saw the emperor being so attentive and gentle.

After finishing the bowl of medicine, Baoshun quickly took out the ointment for treating leg injuries and the bandage given by Doctor Zhang from his sleeve.

Emperor Yong'an took it and glanced at Baoshun.

With just a glance, Bao understood the emperor's intention. He knelt down and said, "Damn it, my slave. It seems that a bottle of scar removal and skin care product is missing. I wonder if I accidentally dropped it in my haste on the way."

"I wonder if Doctor Zhang has any more of this medicine."

Emperor Yong'an said in a deep voice: "Then go find it quickly!"

When Zhiyue heard that the young lady's medicine was missing, she didn't have time to think about it and was anxious to go and look for it together.

Emperor Yong'an waved his hand and asked them to go out and find medicine together, without paying attention to Baoshun's guilty look.

In the end, Baoshun had no choice but to bite the bullet and take the others out...

At this time, there were only two people left in the huge tent. Emperor Yong'an looked at the bandaged wound on her leg, his palms slightly wet, and carefully untied layer after layer of cloth.

With trembling hands, he peeled off the last layer of blood-stained cloth, and the bloody wound came into view. Shen Leyan, who was in a coma, moaned and gradually became uneasy.

Emperor Yong'an frowned even more deeply, and felt a wave of heartache in his heart. It was even more serious than he had imagined.

The originally flawless white legs were not only covered with bruises, but also had a large patch of broken skin that was still bleeding.

He first cleaned the blood from the wound and then applied the ointment given by Doctor Zhang.

Although the whole process was very careful and the movements were very gentle, Shen Leyan was still woken up by the pain.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and she looked at the busy man in front of her with a helpless and ignorant look.

Emperor Yong'an sensed her faint gaze and quickly completed the final bandage. He helped her tidy up her skirt and gently covered her with the quilt before turning around to look at her...

He reached out his hand, gently touched her cheek, slowly stroked the area under her eyelids with his thumb, and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a thoughtful look on his face.

Shen Leyan opened her mouth to speak, but could only make a faint hoarse sound. Not only did she feel like her throat was smoking, but her mouth also tasted bitter.

“Water…water…”

Emperor Yong'an was awakened by her hoarse voice and hurriedly supported her and fed her some water.

He raised his hand and touched her forehead again, and found that her body temperature seemed to have improved a lot. He thought that Doctor Zhang's bowl was effective.

Shen Leyan leaned weakly in Emperor Yong'an's arms. After drinking the water, she felt that her throat was finally relieved and she could make sounds again.

She struggled to sit up from the bed and slowly looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings.

Puzzled, he asked Emperor Yong'an beside him, "Why am I here?"

"When I went to see you, I found that you had a severe fever, so I brought you here to have the imperial physician treat you."

Shen Leyan reacted slowly and said that when she woke up from a sleep, not only was the room different, but she also felt groggy and had a bitter taste in her mouth. It turned out that she had a fever.

No, he just carried her to his tent like that?

What about her brother?

Did everyone else see it too?

The more Shen Leyan thought about it, the more headache she got. Suddenly, her vision went dark and her body fell straight backwards.

Emperor Yong'an quickly reached out to catch her and held her in his arms. Looking at her pale little face, he quickly wanted to call the imperial physician over.

But he was held down by a pair of small hands. He looked at the girl in his arms in surprise: "Are you okay?"

Shen Leyan's face flushed slightly, and she whispered, "I suddenly felt dizzy just now, maybe it's because I'm hungry."

Seeing the little face that was pale a second ago suddenly become rosy again, Emperor Yong'an's mood also fluctuated greatly. He immediately ordered the servants at the door to prepare dinner. He had been worried about her today, so he didn't eat much at the bonfire party. Now he decided to have dinner with her.

Shen Leyan lay quietly in his arms, talking to him incoherently. She looked listless, but fortunately, she was in much better condition than when she just woke up.

She finally resolved her previous doubts. It turned out that she had been in a coma for such a long time today. Fortunately, the emperor came to see her in advance. I think no one would have noticed it at that time. The stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

Of course, Shen Leyan was also very grateful for his kindness and care today. I don’t know if it was because of her illness, but she also developed a little attachment and affection for him.

At this time, Emperor Yong'an was still immersed in self-blame for sending the horse today, and did not notice the soft light in Shen Leyan's eyes at all.

Not only was Shen Leyan not angry, but she liked Xiyan, the girl he gave her, very much. It was a pity that she had a bad start today, but she would not give up riding. She believed that one day she would ride Xiyan to see the mountains and rivers, galloping freely.

"My injury today is solely due to my recklessness. Your Majesty, what does it have to do with it?"

"I haven't thanked Your Majesty properly for giving me Xiyan. Besides, it was thanks to Your Majesty that I was able to wake up so quickly last night. Otherwise, I would have been delirious from the fever." Shen Leyan explained with a blink of her eyes.

Emperor Yong'an seemed to be comforted by her words. He gradually tightened his arms around her, hugged her tightly in his arms, and kissed her between the eyebrows.

Shen Leyan rarely pushed him away, allowing him to hold her in her arms, closing her eyes slightly to rest.
