In the palace, Huang Fengmo searched all over, but could not find any trace of Huang Chenling. He asked Huang Chenling's bodyguard, but he blindly said that she was still in the palace and did not dare to say a word.
He felt something was fishy, so he went directly to ask Wang Xiulin.
"Xiulin, do you know where Chen Ling went?"
Wang Xiulin's expression shrank, he hesitated, and lied: "Brother Chenling went out of the palace with his adoptive father to pay a private visit incognito to understand the sentiments of the people."
Huang Fengmo asked again: "Then where will they go to observe? Why didn't I hear Chen Ling say that he wanted to leave the palace for a private visit incognito?"
Wang Xiulin said quibly: "Brother Fengmo, you are often not in the palace. Brother Chenling is now the emperor. You should not need to come to check what he wants to do. Why didn't he tell you that he was going to pay a private visit incognito?"
, just wait until he comes back and tell you. As for where they are going to understand the public sentiment, I don’t know."
Huang Fengmo asked questioningly: "Xiulin, do you really not know, or are you unwilling to tell me?"
Wang Xiulin suddenly said with a straight face: "I was recently taught by my adoptive father that if you don't have a harem, you must not interfere in political affairs, so I really don't know."
"Okay, I still have things to do, so I'll say goodbye." Huang Fengmo saw that she was stubborn and refused to say anything, so he had no choice but to leave.
"Brother Fengmo, please go slowly without seeing him off." Wang Xiulin stared at him and sighed helplessly after he walked out.
She herself wanted to know where Huang Chenling had gone. There was no response from the people sent by her adoptive father. This really worried her.
In the fishing village on the coast, Yan Ruocheng stayed here for five days. In addition to taking care of the unconscious Huang Chenling, he also helped the old couple who rescued the fishermen to dry salted fish.
In the early morning of that day, Huang Chenling finally felt a little better. He opened his eyes slightly. The arrow wound on his back made his nerves tense suddenly. The severe pain spread throughout his back. He let out a soft cry of pain.
A cry: "Ah!"
Yan Ruocheng woke up slowly beside his bed, and saw his eyes open. She was so happy that she directly held his hand wrapped with a wooden board, and several broken fingers were squeezed red by her hands.
.
"It hurts! My hand -!" Huang Chenling shouted in pain.
"Oh, I'm sorry! I accidentally, it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt anymore, I put it down." Yan Ruocheng was so frightened that he quickly put his hand back.
After Huang Chenling subsided from the pain, she took a slightly clear look at her and said weakly: "Are you injured?"
Yan Ruocheng flattened his mouth and said, "You should worry about yourself, you are the one who is hurt now."
Seeing her arguing so energetically, Huang Chenling made sure that she was not injured and breathed a sigh of relief.
"What do you think? Does the arrow wound on your back hurt?" Yan Ruocheng frowned and closed her eyes again after seeing him finish asking, worriedly asking.
Huang Chenling squeezed out a wry smile and said: "Of course it hurts. I was hit by two arrows. I swam for a long time to save you and almost died. You really should learn to swim. At least it will be your turn next time."
help me."
"What's next? I was scared once. Fortunately, a fisherman sailed by this time and saved us. Let's recover well here first. We will go back after our injuries are healed." Yan Ruocheng said vomitingly.
Huang Chenling turned her head and looked at her, and asked in a worried tone: "Then will you take care of me wholeheartedly and never leave my side?"
"If I don't take care of you now, who else will take care of your injury?" Yan Ruocheng replied calmly.
"Help me up, I want to get some air." Huang Chenling said with a slight smile. There were many dried salted fish hanging on the roof of the wooden house. The smell of salted fish spread all over the place. It was fishy and smelly, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
I can't stand this salty fish smell.
Yan Ruocheng leaned over and carefully supported him against her body. Huang Chenling was already shaking from the pain, so she leaned against her body and took deep breaths.
Yan Ruozhen tilted her body slightly to make him lean more comfortably, and did not dare to touch the arrow wound on his back.
"Please be patient. The doctor will come back at noon to change your dressing. It shouldn't be that painful after changing it. The wound is inflamed now, so it hurts so much."
"I'm in pain now, and I smell the smell of salted fish. It's so hard, and I have difficulty breathing..." Huang Chenling said very unwell.
"I'm just asking about the smell of salted fish. It's not that exaggerated, right? Does it feel better this way?" Yan Ruocheng helped him fan the air with a handkerchief to make his breathing easier.
"It still smells bad. I feel like fainting." Huang Chenling said weakly.
"No?" Yan Ruocheng saw that he looked really uncomfortable. So, he took a breath and blew it gently into Huang Chenling's mouth.
Huang Chenling took the opportunity to kiss her lips. Yan Ruocheng did not stop him and obeyed his wishes, and the two kissed silently.
"Girl, I've cooked the fish porridge." The old woman happened to come in at this time.
Yan Ruocheng stopped immediately, raised his head, and walked towards the door pretending to be nonchalant.
The old woman's eyes were a bit old and she couldn't clearly see what they had just done. She only knew that the man on the bed had woken up.
"Your husband is awake, that's good. I'll put the fish porridge here and you can eat it slowly."
"Mom, thank you. I'll help you wash all the dishes later."
"No need, just stay with your husband."
After the old woman finished speaking, she went out with a smile.
When Yan Ruozhen turned his head to Huang Chenling, he showed a very proud look and said: "Madam, feed me some fish porridge, sir, I'm hungry."
"I just forgot to explain to them, don't get me wrong." Yan Ruocheng explained unconvincingly.
Huang Chenling acted like she couldn't hear her and said coquettishly: "Madam, please stop being so nagging and feed me quickly."
"Really, you are selectively deaf." Yan Ruocheng had no choice but to be obedient and slowly feed him porridge.
After several days of careful care by Yan Ruocheng, Huang Chenling was finally able to get out of bed and move around.
That evening, Yan Ruocheng helped him go for a walk on the beach, enjoying the sea breeze.
"How wonderful would it be if we could live here forever?" Huang Chenling suddenly sighed while looking at the beautiful sunset scenery by the sea.
"Hey, aren't you afraid of smelling the smell of salted fish? If you want to live here all the time, you'll have to smell the smell of salted fish every day, and your nose will be numb." Yan Ruocheng joked in a disgraceful way.
"Don't you want to be with me like this forever? You've been very happy these past few days." Huang Chenling asked.
"I'm just relaxing. I don't want you to be like this all the time. There's no point in escaping." Yan Ruocheng withdrew his smile and explained.
"You can only be dishonest and make excuses. You clearly don't mean what you say." Huang Chenling said in a rude tone.
"Okay, let's go back. Auntie, she's almost done cooking." Yan Ruocheng said, changing the subject. She was evading, so what?
Huang Chenling reached out and held her, not letting her go.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Ruocheng, give me another chance, okay?" Huang Chenling knelt down on one foot and said to her seriously.
"What are you kneeling for? Get up." Yan Ruocheng immediately squatted down himself.
The two of them looked at each other quietly, and Huang Chenling had a thousand words to say to coax her back, but she only said three words at once: "I love you."
Such clichéd three words bounced around like shock waves in Yan Ruocheng's mind, and she fell silent.
Huang Chenling added: "Can you fall in love with me again?"
Yan Ruozhen kept the same expression, without any expression, and the atmosphere was very low.
A little crab passed by Huang Chenling looking for trouble, touched his hand holding a wooden board, and suddenly pinched one of his fingers.
Unable to hear Yan Ruocheng's answer, the passive-minded Huang Chenling was caught and jumped up, swinging her arms.
Yan Ruocheng chuckled, stretched out his hand to hold his hand that was pinched by the little crab, and helped him remove the little crab. A small hole was made in his finger, and blood slowly dripped out.
When he wanted to withdraw his hand, Yan Ruozhen held it, gently held his injured finger in her mouth, and helped him stop the bleeding. He replied: "I don't want to love you either, but I can't control myself either.
Heart. Stop asking me if I love you. Are you an idiot?"
After hearing this, Huang Chenling paused and said with a sweet smile: "You are the idiot. I love you, Ruocheng."
The two quietly kissed on the beach again.
As soon as the kiss came, Yan Ruocheng became negative and said: "It's very bad!"
"What's wrong with you?" Huang Chenling asked puzzledly.
"Isn't he the eldest prince? When I go back, I have to reject him again and hurt him one more time. I feel like I am going to become a sinner for the ages." Yan Ruozhen pressed his head with both hands, not daring to imagine what he said to Huang Fengmo.
How would Huang Fengmo react when rejected?
"Isn't he mentally prepared?" Huang Chenling said easily.
Seeing that he was talking like it had nothing to do with him, Yan Ruozheng also reminded him: "You can't help me. Don't you have to tell your queen about me when you get back?"
When Huang Chenling thought of telling Wang Xiulin about Yan Ruocheng, he also raised his hand and said depressedly: "This is indeed bad."
"Hey, let's go back after staying for a few days. Sooner or later we will have to face it. Let's take it easy for a few days." Yan Ruocheng shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
"No, we are not going back. We will go to the tribe on the border to find Yan Rongyan." Huang Chenling suggested.
"Why are you looking for General Yan?" Yan Ruocheng asked puzzledly.
"The reason why I was kidnapped this time was by the rebel tribes. I need to visit the tribe over there in person. Let's treat it as a private visit incognito." Huang Chenling made up her mind and said.
"Then I have to write a letter back to say I'm safe. I've been missing for so long, they must be very worried." Yan Ruocheng couldn't help but say.
Huang Chenling shook her head and said in disagreement: "Don't write a letter back. If someone knows that you are going with me, I'm afraid it will lead to death."
"In this case, they will be worried to death, and Xiaoling will really think that something happened to me." Yan Ruozhen frowned and did not agree with his statement.
"It's okay. When we get to the station on the way, I will contact the dark guards and ask them to notify your people there. Don't worry about this." Huang Chenling held her hand.
