But even though Pei Yanzhou had countless low emotions in his heart, when he spoke again, he was still gentle and gentle only towards Song Jinyin.
He comforted softly, with an imperceptible dryness in his voice.
Not only was he afraid that she would be disgusted when she saw his wounds, but he was also afraid that his thoughts would be seen.
This is cowardice.
"I just didn't pay much attention. The wound is not in the way."
The man's smile was a little forced as he spoke.
Song Jinyin looked at his back as he walked inside. When she took the coat and put it on, she felt as if she was running away.
Her eyes suddenly blurred and she thought of her scarred hands.
Really everything fell off.
Today, Pei Yanzhou is actually suffering everything she has suffered.
But now she has slowly come out, but the man in front of her seems to have just stepped into such an abyss.
"Your Majesty, has the medicine been changed?"
Seeing him put on his coat, but Doctor Mu next to him still looked anxious, Song Jinyin knew how stubborn this man was, so she regained her composure and spoke.
She sighed, suppressed the shyness in her heart, stepped forward to take the medicine from Doctor Mu's hand, and stopped beside the man.
"Let me apply the medicine for the prince."
Pei Yanzhou froze and did not look back at her for a long time. He only noticed that her hand touched his robe, then stopped at the sleeve and held it gently.
Even though they were separated by a layer, her fingertips were like burning candles, burning with heat, which made his heart beat suddenly again after finally calming down.
"Your Majesty, aren't you willing? If not, I will return the things to Doctor Mu and go out first."
"Don't leave."
The cuffed cuffs were loosened little by little, and Pei Yanzhou panicked, finally defeated.
No one else dared to see the man lowering his head at this moment, so they retreated silently.
Only then did Song Jinyin take a closer look at his wounds.
There were still fresh blood stains on the wound. The dark color on the side seemed to be better, but it still looked a bit scary. In addition to his shoulders and arms, there were also injuries on his chest.
Looking carefully, one can't help but frown.
Cang Rin's wounds were not as many as his, but he was still half asleep and half awake. Even though he was getting better, he was still groggy.
But this man actually shouldered it forcefully, not caring about his own body and forcing his mind to attend to other things.
Thinking of this, Song Jinyin couldn't help but strike a little harder, forcing the man to frown subconsciously.
"Yinyin is angry?"
"Don't dare to be angry."
Pei Yanzhou didn't want her to talk like this, and he didn't like her frowning all the time. He raised his hand and held her wrist to stop her movements.
"Why are you angry? Is it because they forced you to stay in the inn, or... is it because of my injury?"
Pei Yanzhou was a little hesitant when he said the last words, but he still looked into those eyes and was reluctant to look away.
"No one forced me to stay."
The medicine on the table outside was still steaming.
Song Jinyin suddenly remembered the medicine, frowned and said, "If there was, I wouldn't be able to come and deliver the medicine to you. It's just that I don't like living in an inn. If you continue to be unwell, I really want to go back to the small courtyard."
This means that I will not leave for the time being.
Pei Yanzhou's eyes were burning, and he suddenly lowered his head, raised the corners of his lips, and let go of her wrist.
He was willing to accept this assassination.
The sour medicinal smell was much stronger than usual. When Song Jinyin brought it, the man in front of her showed a look of resistance just as she expected.
Song Jinyin could not let him go. She handed the bowl to his hand, took out her purse, put a piece of herb into her mouth, and then took out a dried fruit.
"Here, Brother Shen brought it to me. It's very sweet."
The man's hand tightened on the medicine bowl.
Unexpectedly, he would one day eat something another man brought to Song Jinyin.
Song Jinyin noticed that there was something wrong with his mood for a moment, but now she was not afraid of his toughness, and even sat down by his bed, watching him take the medicine leisurely.
She had to understand that Pei Yanzhou should have acquiesced to her departure, otherwise he would not have such a stunned look after seeing her today.
The man didn't want to make her unhappy, so he suppressed his jealousy and drank the medicine.
When Song Jinyin raised her eyes, she saw his Adam's apple rolling up and down, and the posture of raising his head revealed sharp lines that spread from his shoulders to his chest, which was quite eye-catching.
The burning heat that had just dissipated on his cheeks came back bit by bit.
Song Jinyin pretended to be casual and turned her head away.
"I've finished drinking the medicine, but he gave you something and I don't want to eat it."
The man's hoarse voice seemed to be bewitching, making people subconsciously want to look over.
Song Jinyin suppressed this inexplicable thought, took her hand back, and said vaguely: "You don't want it, just so I can keep it for myself..."
Before he finished speaking, the man thought of something and quickly took the thing over and put it in his mouth.
The appearance of going back on one's word made people unable to react for a moment.
"what you do?"
"The medicine prepared by Shen Yuhe is too bitter. I think it would be better to take it."
Pei Yanzhou felt his heart soften when he saw her eyes widening in shock, her cheeks still blushing from the heat in the room.
But how could he tell her that by eating this dried fruit, he simply didn't want to leave anything related to Shen Yuhe to her, and made her think about that person's kindness.
And it’s not just this one.
As long as she is here these days, he will definitely collect everything Shen Yuhe brought to her.
"Good medicine tastes bitter, you should have listened to him..."
Song Jinyin didn't know what he was thinking, but when she talked about drinking medicine, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen Li Wanqing who had gone out to find the antidote for more than a day, and her face suddenly became serious.
"Sister Wanqing has been gone for so long and there is still no news?"
Seeing her like this, Pei Yanzhou looked a little more serious and called Xuan Wei.
If Song Jinyin hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have remembered Li Wanqing's story too much, nor would he have taken it to heart.
He thought more clearly than the little girl in front of him.
Li Wanqing's purpose in taking this job was extremely simple. Firstly, it was for self-protection, and secondly, for her future plans. Moreover, she also had Xuanwei following her, so she would not put herself in deep danger.
But now that Song Jinyin was worried, he had no choice but to worry more.
"What happened to Li Wanqing?"
"Master, we lost contact last night, and my subordinates have sent people to follow him."
"Lost contact?"
"Yes."
Hearing this, Song Jinyin was a little anxious, but before she could speak, she heard the wooden door being pushed open, and Lin Jingxiu strode in.
The visitor couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw Pei Yanzhou, who was supposed to be lying on the bed, standing on one side, and Song Jinyin sitting on the bed with herbal medicine in her mouth.
It wasn't until Pei Yanzhou glanced at him and looked back at Xuan Wei in front of him to speak that he seemed to be interrupted from his thoughts.
"Send more people out, and then take someone to ask Shen Yuhe. He knows Li Wanqing's habits and the location of those herbs better than you. It will be easier to find people."
"Yes, my subordinate will go right away."
Xuanwei was about to leave, but unexpectedly, Lin Jingxiu next to him suddenly stopped him and frowned: "She went to the mountains outside the city?"
"I'm not sure yet, but I'm just following the marks left by others, which way I should go."
"I will go with you to find him."
Lin Jingxiu thought for a while and then spoke.
Li Wanqing was involved in this matter and had everything to do with him. Not to mention that she offered to find an antidote the night before, and he accepted her love.
It's freezing outside now, and the mountains outside the city are full of dangers. There's no reason for him to let a girl be trapped in them.
Pei Yanzhou gave Lin Jingxiu a steady look and did not speak to dissuade him.
It wasn't until several people left that Song Jinyin spoke up with worry.
"Your people should be able to come back with Sister Wanqing intact, right?"
"Are you worried about her?"
"Well, there are some."
Song Jinyin nodded candidly.
Although she and Li Wanqing were not very close, she was very curious about Li Wanqing's abilities, especially since she had received help from her, so she naturally became more interested in him.
"It may not be intact, but I can definitely bring it back and nothing will really happen to it. Don't be afraid."
"Are you so sure?"
Seeing how determined the man in front of her was, Song Jinyin opened her eyes wide and subconsciously asked for an exit.
Even when she was interrupted by this incident, she stood up again and applied medicine to him much more naturally. Looking from a distance, the two of them seemed extremely close for a while.
"Well, if you don't want anything to happen to her, I won't let anything happen to Lin Jingxiu, including Shen Yuhe, and I won't want anything to happen to her junior sister at this time."
Pei Yanzhou's words instantly calmed Song Jinyin's worries.
It also made the person who originally only cared about Li Wanqing suddenly think of Lin Jingxiu's expression just now, which was rare and serious.
"Since you were worried about Lin Jingxiu's safety, why didn't you stop him?"
"Why stop him?"
Pei Yanzhou looked down at her and realized that the two of them were quite close. In the room full of medicinal smell, he could still smell her reassuring fragrance.
The man's hands hanging on both sides wanted to lift them up to hug her, but he just moved them and put them back honestly.
He couldn't let himself destroy the stability he had finally gained.
"If he gets serious, he's not someone who can stop him."
The girl in front of him was focused on applying the medicine for him. Her long eyelashes were drooping, like feathers falling on his heart. Pei Yanzhou suppressed his thoughts and spoke to her patiently.
