The tree was still there, but her brother was gone. Baili Yue's eyes had lost their former brilliance, leaving only loneliness and silence.

Inside and outside the palace, the two looked at the same sky. Rong Mingxuan stood outside the wall for a long time, but in the end he did not step into the palace, but turned around and left silently.

At the same time, in the Seventh Prince's residence, Baili Yan laughed out loud: "Hahaha... Fourth brother is dead, it's really worth celebrating!"

He originally thought that Baili Ye would be in Suzhou, but when he led his troops there, he found that he was no longer there. Unexpectedly, Baili Ye actually stayed in the capital and was involved in a shocking event - he broke into the palace, attempted to kill the king but failed, and finally committed suicide with a black flint.

"Bai Li Ye is dead... This means that no one can reveal my secrets anymore! No one knows that I am not the real prince!" Bai Li Yan was very excited, and his laughter echoed in the room. "God is helping me! Shen Yuming, don't you think so? It seems that I am the one who is destined to sit on the throne!"

Facing Baili Yan's ecstasy, Shen Yuming's expression was extremely heavy. He went to Suzhou with the Seventh Prince to capture the Fourth Prince and verify whether the red mark on his arm matched the dream, but the Fourth Prince was dead and the mystery could no longer be solved.

If the Fourth Prince is not the one with the red mark, then how do we explain the prophecy in the dream?

Shen Yuming's mood was complicated, but he quickly adjusted his mood and congratulated Baili Yan: "Congratulations, Your Highness, congratulations, Your Highness, you have removed a major obstacle."

Baili Yan nodded with satisfaction, "That's right! Now the throne is within reach, everything is just as you saw in your dream, I will eventually ascend to the supreme throne!"

Ever since he learned that Shen Yuming could foresee the future, Baili Yan had no doubt about his predictions. And the facts also proved that although the process was a bit tortuous, the overall trend was indeed as Shen Yuming predicted.

After Ye Yunzi arranged everything, she came to the guest room and stayed beside the unconscious Shen Siyan. His face was as pale as snow, his lips were chapped, as if he had lost all vitality, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he seemed to be in great pain.

She gently wiped the sweat off his forehead with a handkerchief, accompanying him silently. The room was filled with a faint scent of medicine, mixed with tension and concern. Ye Yunzi's eyes were gentle and focused, as if at this moment, time had stopped for this tranquility.

"Si Yan, you must get better soon." Her voice was as low as a breeze, carrying endless expectations and worries.

Tao Qiming came in to check on them several times, and then left quietly after seeing the situation, giving the couple some time alone.

After an unknown amount of time, when Ye Yunzi was about to wipe the sweat off Shen Siyan's face again, she suddenly met the pair of eyes that had finally opened. At that moment, her handkerchief fell to the ground, and her eyes were instantly filled with tears, "Siyan, you finally woke up..."

Shen Siyan's eyes changed from indifference to warmth, and he called softly, "Yun Zi."

The movement of trying to stand up caused a sharp pain in the wound on his back, but he didn't care about that. He just wanted to make sure Ye Yunzi was safe. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?" he asked, his voice weak but full of concern.

Ye Yunzi held his hand tightly and comforted him, "I'm fine, don't worry about me."

Seeing Shen Siyan's injuries, her heart felt like it was being hit by a heavy hammer, but she knew that now was not the time to be sad. She quickly stood up and said, "I'll go find Doctor Tao right away!"

Soon, Tao Qiming returned with Ye Yunzi, and when he saw Shen Siyan awake, a relieved smile appeared on his face. "Great, Brother Ning, you're awake!" This meant that the most dangerous moment had passed, and all he had to do next was to rest well.

"Brother Ning is recovering well, but the wound on his back is quite serious. He needs to change the dressing every day, and he needs to rest quietly and avoid any strenuous movements," Tao Qiming instructed.

Ye Yunzi silently noted Si Yan's instructions and nodded gently. She said gently, "You should stay in the Su Mansion and rest for a few days."

Shen Siyan did not refuse and accepted her proposal. In the following days, Ye Yunzi always stayed by his side, taking care of his daily life carefully, and almost took care of everything, except asking the doctor for help when changing the dressing. Despite this, Su was still a little worried and frowned slightly.

But thinking that Prince Jin was injured in order to save his daughter, she felt that such care was justified, and in order to prevent anyone from using this incident as an excuse in the future. Therefore, Su specially asked the kitchen to prepare nutritious meals and sent them to Shen Siyan's room every day, hoping that Prince Jin would recover soon.

Since Shen Siyan already had a foundation in martial arts, his injuries recovered quickly. With the careful care of the Su family, he was soon able to walk slowly. However, the doctor advised him not to do strenuous exercise for the time being.

Seeing that Shen Siyan could walk, Ye Yunzi finally let go of her worries. However, when Shen Siyan said he wanted to leave, she felt reluctant. "Your back injury is not completely healed yet. Doctor Tao said you can't overwork yourself. Why don't you stay for a few more days to recover?" she said softly.

"The affairs of the court are very busy, I can't stay for long." Shen Siyan replied gently, gently tucking her scattered hair behind her ears. Seeing her melancholy expression, he added: "I will take the medicine on time and change the medicine regularly to ensure that I won't develop a chronic disease."

Although Ye Yunzi was reluctant in her heart, she still nodded and acquiesced to his decision. Seeing this, Shen Siyan couldn't help but gently rub her hair, making her face slightly red. She looked around nervously and relaxed after confirming that there was no one around.

"By the way, Yunzi, my new palace is almost finished." Shen Siyan suddenly mentioned that since he was named King Jin, the court also granted him a house as his palace. After several months of construction, it is finally close to completion. "If you have time, you can come and have a look. I want to plant some bamboo in the yard and dig a pond to raise koi... I wonder if you would like it?"

Hearing this, Ye Yunzi's eyes suddenly widened, and her heart was filled with ripples. She stammered in response: "This... This is your palace... How can I just go there casually..."

Shen Siyan held her hand tightly, his eyes firm, "Yunzi, wait for me, I will ask the emperor for a marriage."

Ye Yunzi's back suddenly stiffened, and she slowly raised her head.

"The palace is also your home, you can decorate it however you want." Shen Siyan said calmly, with a hint of seriousness in his tone.

Hearing this, Ye Yunzi's heart began to beat faster. She looked up at him, feeling a warm current rushing to her heart, and her eyes unconsciously moistened.

"Yunzi, will you marry me?" Shen Siyan's voice was as gentle as a spring breeze.

Ye Yunzi looked at him and smiled gently, "I do."

The two held each other's hands tightly, with only each other in their eyes. At this moment, it seemed as if the whole world only had the two of them.
