Chapter 160 Zhizhi has a fever
Nan Zhiyu drank her porridge with such large movements that the spoon accidentally poked the wound at the corner of her mouth, causing her to gasp in pain.

The Crown Prince was in a hurry and climbed in through the window, "Zhizhi, where does it hurt? Let me see."

Nan Zhiyu looked at him aggrievedly, feeling even more aggrieved than Snowball who was scolded for doing something wrong. She didn't say a word, but her clear glass eyes couldn't hide her emotions at all.

Wei Qingye coaxed her into eating the remaining half bowl of porridge, then he personally helped her apply ointment and helped her put on a beautiful dress.

Nan Zhiyu's mood improved a little. "Your Highness, don't think that your help can offset the credit."

Wei Qingye nodded in agreement, massaging her lower back with his large hands. "Is this any better?"

The little girl whined and said, "Your Highness's skills are not good. It's not as comfortable as Qingdai and Lianyue's."

Wei Qingye paused, "Nan Zhizhi, you're really getting bolder now. Not only do you order me around, but you even look down on my poor cooking skills."

Nan Zhiyu stiffened her neck and said, "How could I have the guts to order His Highness around? Didn't Your Highness do this on his own accord? If Your Highness thinks I'm too delicate and difficult to serve, why not call a maid from outside to serve you?"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw that her shoulders were half exposed and her kiss marks were visible, and that she would be seen by others. In his heart, he couldn't help but want to imprison her in Chengqian Palace where only he could see her.

"Zhizhi, it's better not to provoke me at a time like this. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that I won't do anything to make you angry."

Nan Zhiyu trembled all over when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this. She puffed out her cheeks and said nothing more.

On the return carriage, Nan Zhiyu was half lying on the couch, coughing more and more violently, her pale little face flushed.

Wei Qingye sat down on the soft couch, holding her in his arms, and placed the back of his hand on her forehead. "Why is it still so hot?"

When he sat down on the couch, Nan Zhiyu got into his arms, but when she wanted to grab his sleeve, she quickly pushed him aside and said weakly, "I have caught a cold and am coughing badly. Your Highness should stay a little further away from me."

After she finished speaking, she started coughing again, and her thin back trembled with her coughing.

The coughing made Wei Qingye's heart tremble. He wanted to slap himself a few times. He was the one who started the trouble and now she was the one suffering.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Nan Zhiyu covered her face with a handkerchief while speaking and turned her head to the other side.

Her long black hair swayed gently behind her back, her thick eyelashes, pale face, and sparkling eyes concealed a natural sense of brokenness, and her charm was fully revealed in her moving eyes.

"I'm just wondering if that little monk didn't learn medicine from his master properly. Otherwise, why hasn't his fever gone down after drinking the medicine for half an hour?"

Nan Zhiyu coughed so hard that she felt a suffocating feeling in her chest and she almost couldn't breathe. She endured the pain in her chest and looked at him with tears in her eyes.

"Your Highness, maybe the time was too short and the effect of the medicine did not fully take effect." Nan Zhiyu leaned against the soft pillow with a tired look, and her eyelids slowly drooped.

As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of the imperial city, it met Changding Hou Shen Hui, who was returning to Beijing to meet the emperor. Following behind him was the spirited young general Shen Hongfeng.

Chai Hui's face immediately turned ugly. He sat on the shaft of the carriage and saluted the two generals with his fists, "General Shen, how are you?"

Seeing that it was the carriage of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Shen Hui and Shen Hongfeng quickly saluted and said, "This humble general greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Chai Hui couldn't help sweating on his forehead. Although he didn't know why the Crown Prince suddenly took Master Yue away from the palace to the temple at this time, he vaguely realized that this matter might be related to the two people in front of him. Wei Qingye subconsciously looked at the sleeping girl on the couch. Seeing that she didn't seem to wake up, he reached out and lifted a corner of the curtain to greet the two people.

"General Shen and Little General Shen have returned triumphantly, which is a joyous occasion. I've specially prepared a banquet for them tonight, so you must come and attend."

Seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so easy-going, the Shen family father and son were immediately flattered. These rough guys on the border had heard that the Crown Prince's methods and strategies were no less than those of the current emperor.

"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness. The Shen family guards the border and protects the peace of Southern Qin. It is our duty to help the Emperor and Your Highness solve their problems. I dare not take credit for it."

Shen Hui's words were flawless and there was nothing wrong with them.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile on his face: "It is a good thing that General Shen is devoted to the country and the people, but he should also think about the people he cares about."

After the carriage gradually moved away, Shen Hui turned around and looked at Shen Hongfeng with a puzzled look on his face, "What do you mean by that, Your Highness? The only person I care about in this world is not just you, a stinky boy, but also..."

He didn't say the rest of the words before he silently closed his mouth.

Seeing his father's expression, Shen Hongfeng naturally understood what he was thinking. With a hint of pity in his voice, he said, "Father~~"

Shen Hui reached out and patted his shoulder, saying helplessly: "After we return home, remember to burn two incense sticks for your mother and tell her that we have returned safely."

There was a trace of sadness between Shen Hongfeng's raised eyebrows. "Of course my son remembers this rule. Father, would you like to go and burn some incense for my mother?"

Shen Hui waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "I won't go."

Luo Chu probably hasn't forgiven him until now. Otherwise, why hasn't she appeared in his dreams for so many years?

Nan Zhiyu, who was sleeping in the carriage, suddenly shouted "Mother~" and woke up from her dream with sweat on her forehead and her eyes filled with fear and panic.

Wei Qingye quickly put down the book in his hand, held her in his arms, and coaxed her softly: "Don't be afraid, Zhizhi, it's just a nightmare."

Nan Zhiyu unconsciously clung to him tightly, her wet eyes looking at him pitifully:
"I just dreamed about my mother. She fell off a cliff. I wanted to save her, but when I was about to jump, I opened my eyes."

"I hesitated because I was afraid of the cliff."

Wei Qingye sighed silently, lowered his head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

After waiting for the carriage to stop, Wei Qingye picked her up and walked into Chongming Palace step by step.

The people serving here are all His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's own people, so there is no need to worry about being discovered by people with ulterior motives.

Chai Hui ran quickly towards the Imperial Hospital. He planned that whenever the Crown Prince went out in the future, he would definitely have Imperial Physician Bai stay in Chengqian Palace, just in case.

It's really too much for him to run there every time relying on his two legs!
Thinking of Master Yue who was still running a fever, he moved his legs even faster.

Oh, what would Chengqian Palace do without him?

I wish all my dear friends a happy Lantern Festival, everything goes well, and happiness always stays with me (˙▽˙)
