"Not entirely, Crown Princess, didn't you say you wanted to meet Yan Shiyao? Yan Shiyao and Qi Qingchen are staying together, and Qi Qingchen is currently Qi Lan's Crown Prince. To take Yan Shiyao away from him, His Highness must come forward. Otherwise, Qi Qingchen will not give up if Yan Shiyao suddenly appears in Xuan Zhao."

"Your Highness also said that you wanted to eat the cakes I made when I was a child, so he simply made them for Qi Lan himself." Ye An said truthfully.

"I don't have to see Yan Shiyao." Yan Yuning curled her lips, her eyes became hot, and tears fell again.

"But His Highness will take your words to heart and take them seriously." Ye An muttered softly.

Yan Yuning's eyes ached and she covered her chest which was suffocating. She thought that even if she went home, she would probably never be happy again.

She will never be able to get out of it, nor forget it...

"Crown Princess, don't be sad. This time His Highness Qi Lan also brought Qi Lan's Emperor and Crown Prince." Ye An said.

Yan Yuning turned her gaze from Xuan Yanyu to Ye An, "Qi Huang was brought here by Xuan Xixi? How did he bring him here?"

"Crown Princess, originally the Emperor Qi wanted to detain your Highness, and the guards and imperial guards he brought with him were more than the people your Highness brought with him to Qi Lan. But before your Highness went to Qi Lan, he brought the incense and antidote that Imperial Doctor Wen developed for you. We took the antidote after we arrived at Qi Lan, fearing that we would run into trouble."

Speaking of this, Ye An found it funny, "I didn't expect that Emperor Qi would come to the villa where Yan Shiyao lived. It seemed that he was waiting for Your Highness on purpose. Then Your Highness signaled his men to light the incense. They were not prepared. Later, thinking that Emperor Qi would not tolerate this when he woke up, Your Highness simply brought Emperor Qi here."

"Qi Lan was not very strict with Xuan Zhao's people when they entered and left the city. Moreover, some of Qi Lan's soldiers had been teaching a lesson to several neighboring kings who had provoked them. They were afraid that Xuan Zhao would strike Qi Lan at this time. The guards guarding the city did not dare to offend Xuan Zhao. So I brought Emperor Qi and Crown Prince Qi Lan to Xuan Zhao without any hesitation."

"The guards all know that at this critical moment, they dare not offend Xuan Zhao. How can Emperor Qi still dare to keep Xuan Xixi in Qi Lan?"

Ye An curled his lips in disdain, "Doesn't Emperor Qi think that by detaining His Highness, he can control His Majesty? If Emperor Qi really detains His Highness, he will indeed achieve his wish."

Unexpectedly, they had incense in their hands. If they had thought of it, they would have taken the antidote in advance. Even if they could protect His Highness from leaving Qi Lan, the brothers who brought him would suffer casualties, and Miss Yan would not be able to take Xuan Zhao away.

However, it is impossible for Qi Lan to have an antidote for the incense specially made by Imperial Physician Wen.

"What does father plan to do now?" Yan Yu Ning took a handkerchief, held Xuan Yanyu's hand, and wiped his fingers with distinct knuckles.

Ye An choked and said slowly, "Crown Princess, you should ask His Highness. I don't know what His Majesty will do."

"...You go out first."

"Yes, Crown Princess." Ye An glanced at Xuan Yanyu and left the bedroom.

——

In the following days, Yan Yuning drank the medicine prepared by the imperial physician, and her health got better day by day, even better than before.

The imperial physician still came to check Ping'an's pulse every day as usual.

"How is it? How is Ningning?" Xuan Yanyu asked the question he asked every day.

Yan Yuning looked at Doctor Wen calmly, and Doctor Wen lied, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess just needs to drink the medicine and recuperate for a few days and she will be fine."

Xuan Yanyu, who was focused on Yan Yuning, did not notice the abnormality of Imperial Doctor Wen. He smiled visibly, "Okay, okay."

"Your Highness, can you relax now?" Yan Yuning said with a smile.

Imperial Doctor Wen quietly left the hall. If he stayed a little longer, what would His Highness ask again? How would he answer?

"Do you know how scared I was?" Xuan Yanyu said with a smile, "But now I am completely relieved."

"Then Your Highness, can you tell us where you went yesterday?" Yan Yu Ning tapped his knee.

The man groaned in pain. He took out a phoenix-shaped amulet from his arms like a treasure and tied it around Yan Yuning's waist. He also said, "I personally asked for this amulet. It is backed by the emperor's authority and is different from ordinary amulets. You are not allowed to lose it."
