Wei Yunting wanted Jiang Tian to agree to something else, but to go to the military camp with him.

After the Xiongnu retreated, he wanted to stay in the military camp for a while to stabilize the morale of the troops.

I won't be staying for more than a few days this time.

Remembering the agonizing time he spent without seeing Jiang Tian, ​​Wei Yunting made up his mind to take Jiang Tian with him.

But Jiang Tian saw through his thoughts at a glance and refused to agree no matter what he said.

He followed her to the study, but Jiang Tian still ignored him.

Her reason for refusing was simple: she had been watching over Wei Yunting's "prisoner" for so long that she hadn't been to the nunnery in ages, and she had to go every day these days, so who would have time to deal with him?

After Jiang Tian finished reading a few pages, she said slowly, "Why don't you go check on the one in the dark room? You just keep bothering me."

Wei Yunting used all his shamelessness on Jiang Tian, ​​but she just wouldn't buy it.

He touched his nose, thinking that he really had to see Xiao Sheng. After stealing a few moments of intimacy, he entered the dark room with a red mark on his head.

When he calmly walked into the dark room, he saw Xiao Sheng lying there in a daze.

Upon seeing Wei Yunting, Xiao Sheng asked slowly and deliberately, "You're back?"

Wei Yunting stared intently at Xiao Sheng's expression, then slowly smiled and asked, "How has the Crown Prince been lately?"

Yawning, Xiao Sheng said listlessly, "Don't you know whether I'm good or not? You let your mistress treat me like an animal, she doesn't even say a word to me, and you still ask me if I'm good or not?"

Sensing the resentment towards Jiang Tian in Xiao Sheng's tone, Wei Yunting's expression surprisingly softened a bit.

He chuckled softly, "My mistress has been spoiled by me and developed this temperament. If she encounters someone she doesn't like, she will always have a cold face. Your Highness need not take offense."

Xiao Sheng remained silent, seemingly disregarding Jiang Tian. He then asked, "Have the troops Father Emperor arranged for me arrived?"

Wei Yunting nodded: "I have already made arrangements. Once the Crown Prince has recovered from his injuries, he can see them."

At this moment, Xiao Sheng asked with a hint of curiosity, "Father Emperor sent me here not so I could find a place to play, but what does he really want?"

Wei Yunting's tone remained unchanged: "His Majesty said that the Crown Prince is His Majesty's only son. He has spoiled you and is afraid that you will not amount to much. He sent you here to temper your temperament."

Xiao Sheng's tone was full of disdain: "The entire court is afraid that I will become talented. He followed their wishes and spoiled me. Now he wants to make up for it?"

"As an outsider, I am not in a position to discuss matters concerning His Majesty and the Crown Prince; I am merely acting in accordance with His Majesty's orders."

Xiao Sheng was somewhat curious: "What do you want me to do?"

Looking at Xiao Sheng, Wei Yunting knew that his injuries had improved considerably.

Thinking back to what the two of them did last night, with Xiao Sheng in the dark room being an eyesore, Wei Yunting's smile faded slightly.

"Once the Crown Prince has recovered from his injuries, I will have him disguise himself and send you to the military camp. His Majesty said he can hold on for another year or two, and I'll have time to take care of you then."

Xiao Sheng's expression changed: "The military camp?"

Wei Yunting nodded: "If you want to achieve great things, you can't just enjoy wealth and honor without experiencing hardships."

Xiao Sheng didn't speak, which meant he agreed.

But he made a request.

"Move me out of the dark room. I've had enough of your attitude in the outer room. Find me another place to properly recover from my injuries."

Wei Yunting smiled and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, I would have done it for you even if you hadn't asked. On the day your injury was critical, I couldn't summon a doctor, so I had my mistress treat you and hid you here."

"Once those people's informants are gone, I'll find you a new place to go."

Xiao Sheng thought he had misheard: "Your mistress treated my injuries?"

Wei Yunting's expression remained unchanged: "She has some talent for medicine."

Xiao Sheng was filled with mixed feelings, but his expression remained slightly cold: "Your Highness is truly audacious. Women are not allowed to practice medicine in the world. How did your mistress learn it? Didn't you investigate?"

“I sent her to study, and I even personally paid for the tuition.”

Wei Yunting readily admitted it.

Xiao Sheng's expression changed drastically. Looking at Wei Yunting's unwavering expression, he couldn't imagine how much Jiang Tian was favored by him, which would make him do something so rule-breaking.

Only then did he notice a faint slap mark on Wei Yunting's face.

It was obviously taken by a woman.

Xiao Sheng knew immediately who the woman was.

Xiao Sheng looked at Wei Yunting, a question in his eyes: "Did she drug you?"

Wei Yunting seemed not to hear him, and instead said in a calm voice, "I will find another doctor to examine the Crown Prince tonight. You can take care of your wounds there and come back tomorrow."

"Your Highness, please be patient for a few more days. Now that I'm back, I will naturally take care of you in place of my mistress. However, there are many people around, and your injuries haven't fully healed yet, so I cannot act rashly."

Xiao Sheng's face turned pale upon hearing his words.

Wei Yunting thought that Xiao Sheng was unhappy because he was tired of being in the dark room, but little did he know that Xiao Sheng only had the thought of being sent to the hospital for treatment tonight on his mind.

Last night he was forced to listen to things he shouldn't have, and tonight he's going to be sent out for treatment...

Do we even need to guess what Wei Yunting wants to do?
