Seeing that he could still laugh, Liu Yanyan said angrily, "Drink some water. How can you still laugh with such a big wound? I don't know what's so funny."

Zhou Yanze looked at Yanyan, his eyes full of joy. "Yanyan, I'm not laughing, really, I'm still in pain! Ouch, ouch, it hurts so much, Yanyan."

Liu Yanyan's eyes flashed with heartache. Seeing the gauze on his shoulder, the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat. "Lie down and have a good rest. When the rain stops, we will go back. Otherwise, you will catch a cold on the road. What should we do? Such a big wound, how long will it take to heal!"

Seeing that Yanyan cared about him so much, Zhou Yanze lay down obediently and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Yanyan. I'll listen to Yanyan. Whatever Yanyan says, that's what it is."

Liu Yanyan glared at him, tucked him in, and watched him lie down before she blew out the candle next to him. She walked to Shuhui and said to her gratefully, "Shuhui, thank you, thank you for coming to save me. I don't know how to thank you."

Wang Shuhui looked at Yanyan with concern and said, "Yanyan, I hope you are fine. I heard the sound of fighting in the yard next to me and was very worried. I nodded gently and called for someone I could to come and help you. Fortunately, they arrived in time."

Liu Yanyan held Shuhui's hand, looked at her with gratitude, took out a dozen silver bills from her bosom, handed them to Shuhui and said, "Give some to your men. Don't let them come here in vain. I remember all the kindness you have shown me."

Wang Shuhui did not act pretentiously. She took the banknote with a smile on her face and put it in her sleeve. "They must be very happy. Now they can live well for several years. Yanyan is still the same, so generous!"

Liu Yanyan chuckled and nodded, "You! Keep it well, I'll take care of things first."

Wang Shuhui nodded and stood beside Yanyan, guarding her. Liu Yanyan thought of Zhang, the chief, and her face turned cold. She shouted, "Master Zhang, please come in."

Upon hearing this, Wang Shuhui took two steps back and stood aside.

Lord Zhang pushed the door open and walked into the room, bowing respectfully, "I pay my respects to the princess."

Liu Yanyan smiled lightly and said, "Thank you for your hard work today, Sir Zhang. We will remember your kindness." After that, she took out a dozen silver bills and handed them to Sir Zhang. "This is for Sir Zhang and your men. You have worked hard today. This is your reward."

Lord Zhang happily accepted it, and knelt down excitedly to express his gratitude, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

Liu Yanyan waved her hand and said, "No need to go through all this formality. I can't let you make this trip in vain. Please leave!"

Only then did Lord Zhang respectfully stand up and leave.

Wang Shuhui then stepped forward and said, "Yanyan, I'm going out too. Give them the reward money as soon as possible and make them happy."

Liu Yanyan looked at Shuhui, nodded gently and said, "Okay, we have a long way to go."

Only then did Wang Shuhui step down.

After Liu Yanyan saw Shuhui leave, she said, "Thank you for your hard work today. When the prince returns home safely, there will be a big reward."

Everyone thanked him happily, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Princess."

Liu Yanyan saw that the matter was settled, then she came to the couch and touched Zhou Yanze's forehead. Seeing that he did not have a fever, she was relieved. She just stared at the door anxiously, "Why hasn't the doctor made the medicine yet? Why did it take so long?"

Zhou Yanze comforted her, "How can it be that fast? It takes a long time to boil the medicine. Yanyan, relax a little and don't stare at her all the time."

Liu Yanyan said speechlessly, "Isn't this just worrying about you? You have to take the medicine quickly, otherwise you will have a fever and be the one suffering, right?"

Zhou Yanze chuckled, "Okay, I know it's Yanyan who cares about me. Care makes me confused. I shouldn't have said that about Yanyan. It's all my fault. It's my fault."

Seeing that he was coaxing her like a child, Liu Yanyan was speechless and said, "You, you, why are you like this?" She sat aside and didn't want to say anything.

Zhou Yanze coaxed gently, "Yanyan, don't worry, the doctor will be in soon, don't worry, I'm not in pain."

Liu Yanyan nodded slightly, but ignored him. Zhou Yanze touched his nose, not knowing how to coax her, so he could only say, "Yanyan, it's all my fault. I was wrong. When I get better, how about I take you out for a horse ride?"

Seeing his pitiful look, Liu Yanyan nodded slightly and almost laughed, "Okay, I forgive you."

Seeing that Yanyan was no longer angry, Zhou Yanze lay quietly and didn't dare to speak.

Soon, Doctor Lin came into the room with the boiled medicine and said, "Your Majesty, the medicine for the princess is ready."

Zhou Yanze waved his hand, and his servant took the medicine bowl with a serious face, tested the poison with a silver needle and said, "Your Highness, it's not poisonous."

Liu Yanyan then took over and said, "Let me do it. Your hand is injured. What if you pull the wound?"

Zhou Yanze looked at Yanyan and said softly, "Okay, I'll listen to Yanyan."

Liu Yanyan held the spoon in her hand and gently stirred the medicine in the bowl. She scooped up a spoonful, put it to her mouth, blew it gently to cool it down, and then fed it to Yan Ze's mouth. "Drink it! It's not bitter."

Zhou Yanze smelled the bitter medicine, looked at Yanyan's expectant eyes, drank the medicine in the spoon in one gulp, and almost spit it out because it was so bitter.

After Liu Yanyan saw him swallow it, she scooped another spoonful and fed it to his mouth.

Zhou Yanze couldn't stand the bitterness in his mouth, but he couldn't bear to see Yanyan embarrassed, so he squinted his eyes and drank the medicine. "Yanyan, I can drink it myself, pass the bowl to me!"

Liu Yanyan shook her head and said, "This medicine bowl is too hot. What if you get burned or your wound gets torn? Let me feed you! You're a grown man, you wouldn't be afraid of drinking medicine, right?"

Zhou Yanze looked at his thickly bandaged wound, feeling miserable and unhappy. He said with a gloomy face, "How could it be that? How could I be afraid of taking medicine? I just don't want Yanyan to get tired."

Liu Yanyan gently stirred the medicine, her eyes full of heartache, and scooped out another spoonful, feeding it to his mouth, "Drink it! I'm not tired, you got hurt because you were protecting me, and it's my duty to take care of you."

Zhou Yanze's eyes were full of rejection, but when he saw the medicine handed to him, he still opened his mouth and drank it in one gulp. Looking at the half bowl of medicine left, he felt a chill all over his body.

Seeing how pitiful he was, Liu Yanyan handed the cooled medicine bowl to his mouth and said, "Prince, drink the medicine! It's cooler now, you can drink it."

Zhou Yanze looked at Yanyan, surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't bother to speak. He leaned on the edge of the bowl, squinted his eyes, and drank the medicine in one gulp. He opened his eyes only after he finished drinking it.

When Liu Yanyan saw that he had finished drinking, she took back the bowl and fed him a candied fruit. "Eat it! It won't be bitter in a while. It's very sweet."

Zhou Yanze's eyes flashed with surprise, "I'm a grown man, why would I eat this? It's not bitter, I'm not afraid of bitterness."

Liu Yanyan nodded and said, "Okay, you are not afraid of hardship, but I am the one who feels sorry for you, okay?"

Zhou Yanze nodded with satisfaction and leaned back on the pillow to rest.
