Yue Ziyue smiled sweetly. "So, it's the Fourth Prince who was merciful and saved me."

These words made Jingfei happy. Yue Ziyue looked up and saw that Jingfei's face was yellow, and her body was leaning to one side, indicating that she was weak. But from the looks of it, she was probably malnourished and had a bit of low blood sugar.

"May I dare to ask, esteemed lady, how's your recent diet?"

When Senior Servant Pei heard this, she couldn't help but feel displeased. "How dare you even ask about the daily necessities of esteemed imperial concubine? Which palace are you from?!"

"I didn't mean anything else. My daughter studied medicine for a few years, but today I saw esteemed wangfei and saw a trace of illness on her face. That's why I dared to ask."

Jingfei waved her hands, gesturing for Senior Servant Pei to mix Yue Ziyue, who was lying on the ground, and said gently, "It's been a hot and dry day, so I don't have much appetite. I've been doing fine for the past few years, but this year has been a bit difficult."

"Empress, don't be afraid. You must eat breakfast for three meals a day. Eat more light vegetables with less oil and less salt. In addition, just one candy per day is fine."

Yue Ziyue explained in detail. When Jingfei heard this, she nodded and smiled, "If your method is truly useful, I will definitely reward you. After today, come back with me."

Yue Ziyue couldn't wait for this outcome and immediately bowed. "Thank you, Empress."

When Yan Muqing came back from the hunting grounds, his battle results were plentiful. Yan YuNian, who also had good results in battle, was slightly lower in comparison to Yan Muqing. Naturally, his face turned a little ugly.

The emperor kept praising Yan Muqing, which made the other princes' faces turn sour.

The emperor was overjoyed. He accompanied Jing Fei in the palanquin back to the palace while Yue Ziyue followed behind Aunt Pei. She looked down at Xue Chao and stuck out her tongue, showing her provocation.

Yan Muqing, on the other hand, did not care. She rode her horse and followed Jingfei back to the palace in her palanquin.

Since the emperor had come to Flower Nest Palace, Yue Ziyue could not show her face. She could only be arranged by Aunt Pei to stay in a room in the backyard.

Once they were out of the door, Yue Ziyue turned around and couldn't find the way. After walking for a long time, she still couldn't find what was happening. She finally found out from a pretty sister who just passed by.

He couldn't help but marvel at the scale of Huayi Palace. The emperor must have been very fond of Jingfei. No wonder Yan Yinian wanted to deal with Yan Muqing, he must be worried about the power to succeed the throne.

A group of palace maids and eunuchs, seven to eight palace maids and seven to eight eunuchs walked in from afar. Each of them formed a line and headed in his direction.

Hurriedly rushing over, the head eunuch had an anxious expression on his face. Yue Ziyue pulled the eunuch over to her.

"Where are you guys going? Why don't you bring me along and have some fun?"

The eunuch looked at Yue Ziyue from head to toe, as if he couldn't figure out who had come from there. He only made a bow and said, "The princess of Nanjiang Country came to Li Jing City. According to the imperial edict, she is here to report to the Imperial Concubine Jingfei and make a move in the palace."

"Oh."

Yue Ziyue thought for a moment and then asked, "Then what kind of place is the Nanjiang Country? How come I've never heard of it?"

The young eunuch frowned and thought for a moment. Then, he said, "Don't mention that you haven't heard of it, even I, who had been in the palace for ten years, have not heard of it. It's just that I recently heard that it was our Li Jing's new Guardian Country."

"Got it."

When Yue Ziyue thought of the Southern River Country, she felt extremely lucky to be able to see the princess again in her lifetime.

Seeing that Yue Ziyue did not have any more questions to ask, the young eunuch took small steps and hurried back to the main group.

Not long after the group left, a familiar voice sounded from behind them, "What? Are you interested in the princess of Nanjiang Country?"

"Why are you here?"

Yue Ziyue turned her head when she heard her voice, only to see that Yan Muqing had unknowingly changed out of her hunting suit's armor. Standing before her was a simple, pure white robe with golden threads, a simple, high crown, and an aura of immortalism.

For a moment, Yue Ziyue couldn't move her eyes away.

"This is my house, why can't I come here? On the other hand, you, why are you here?"

Yue Ziyue had her own reasons, so she raised her chin. "Of course it was esteemed imperial concubine who invited me here."

Yan Muqing did not say a word. He frowned slightly and his tone softened a little. "Is Jingfei very serious?"

Yue Ziyue had never seen Yan Muqing so worried about anyone before. For a moment, she felt a little guilty. Although it hadn't been a long time, she felt as if several centuries had passed.

Yan Muqing's attitude was neither cold nor warm, and thinking about her hatred towards him made her want to tear him apart. However, Yue Ziyue had never seen such a cautious Yan Muqing before.

A warm feeling flowed through his chest, rushing to his heart that was moving rhythmically. He stared blankly for a moment, but it was only a few seconds before he regained his senses.

With a light cough, she continued, "The Concubine Jing lives like a prince, sitting in the house all day without the sun and not moving. The immunity of the body naturally decreases, so all sorts of diseases find their way to the door. How many years do you think it's possible for the concubine to be fine?"

When Yan Muqing heard Yue Ziyue's words, even though she was completely confused, her brows were still tightly knitted together. Her face was filled with worry, but very soon, a trace of suspicion flashed across her face.

"You don't look like someone who would understand these things?"

"You don't believe in people, do you?"

Yue Ziyue shook her head and slipped over to Yan Muqing's side. Since her height was not high enough, she had no choice but to take a few steps back again, saving herself the embarrassment of looking up at him.

"If I can cure esteemed wangfei, how will you thank me?"

Yan Muqing's eyes turned cold. She suddenly walked towards Yue Ziyue, pressing closer and closer, saying, "Whatever you want me to thank you for, I'll thank you for."

Yue Ziyue retreated several steps, not even knowing where to look. She stammered, "I … I want black and white words. What if you don't keep your word?"

Yan Muqing suddenly stopped walking and said solemnly, "You don't trust people?"

Yue Ziyue had already retreated to the side of the pillar. She leaned her body against it, unable to retreat any longer. "You're learning from me?"

Yan Muqing looked solemnly into Yue Ziyue's eyes, and Yue Ziyue momentarily lost her composure. "You must keep your promise, we will do as you say!"

After throwing that sentence, Yue Ziyue ran off without looking back. Looking at the fleeing figure, Yan Muqing stood there blankly for a long time.

If not for Xue Chao, who appeared behind her, Yan Muqing would have probably stayed here for a long time.
