Chapter 184: Just Missing
"What's wrong with the emperor?" When Ye Lingchen heard the soldiers say that Yue Cen was unwell, the guilt in his heart instantly increased several times.
Could it be that he was injured while spying on military intelligence?
Or...are you...angry and sad because of him?
The soldier was also confused, but he pretended to be serious: "Your Highness, I don't know the specific situation."
Ye Lingchen couldn't help but worry when he saw the soldier's serious expression: "Have you called a military doctor?"
This puzzled the soldier. Wouldn't it be strange if he honestly said that he didn't ask for permission?
But he couldn't lie and say he had invited her.
Seeing Ye Lingchen staring at him, he could only say vaguely, "I just changed shifts, and the person in front didn't say much."
"But the emperor's health is a serious matter, the military doctor should have come by."
Ye Lingchen retracted his gaze and glanced at the tightly closed tent door, then said, "Where is the military doctor? I will go find him."
According to etiquette, he couldn't force his way in no matter how worried he was, and he didn't want to disturb Yue Cen.
But he had to get the situation clear, otherwise he wouldn't be able to rest easy.
The soldier didn't expect Ye Lingchen to be so difficult to deal with that he even had to go find a military doctor.
But he couldn't stop it, so he pointed to the doctor's tent and said, "Your Highness, the doctor's tent is over there."
After saying this, he lowered his head, afraid that Ye Lingchen would notice something.
Ye Lingchen didn't even bother to look at him. As soon as he saw the direction clearly, he rushed in that direction.
As soon as Ye Lingchen left, Yue Cen's voice came from inside the tent: "Go find the military doctor immediately and have him hide."
The soldier was still in a daze when he heard another cold shout: "Go quickly!"
The soldier was terrified: "Yes!"
He had never heard the emperor speak in this tone before. In his impression, the emperor was always gentle and rarely got angry.
Although he was confused, he didn't dare to think about it anymore.
He was afraid that Ye Lingchen would find the military doctor first, so he ran very fast, even if he had to go into battle to kill the enemy.
Ye Lingchen didn't know that his trip was in vain. He even prayed as he walked that the military advisor would say Yue Cen was okay.
But when he rushed to the military doctor's tent, he was told that the military doctor had gone out for something.
"Where did he go?" Ye Lingchen's voice suddenly turned cold.
As a military doctor, why don't you stay in the tent and wait for orders instead of running around?
"Your Highness," the soldier replied, "I don't know."
Ye Lingchen gritted his teeth anxiously, thought for a moment and asked again: "Did the military doctor go to the emperor's tent just now?"
"Your Highness." The soldier said expressionlessly, "I don't know."
Ye Lingchen was so angry that his heart was boiling with rage, but he couldn't vent his anger.
He looked inside the tent unwillingly, which scared the military doctor and soldiers hiding in the corner of the tent.
They looked at each other nervously, then shrank their bodies, wishing they could crawl into the cracks in the ground.
At the same time, I was very confused. What on earth had happened? Why did the emperor do such a strange thing?
After searching in vain, Ye Lingchen had no choice but to turn around and leave, but he couldn't help but let his wild thoughts begin to run wildly in his mind.
What happened to Yue Cen?
He's not really hurt, is he?
He seemed fine when I saw him just now!
But he didn't look carefully and couldn't be completely sure.
But no matter whether Yue Cen was injured or not, he felt very sorry.
He shouldn't have treated Yue Cen like that, he was too much...
What now? Go back and wait?
No, he still had to figure out the situation.
Ye Lingchen made up his mind and walked towards Yue Cen’s tent again.
Yue Cen just finished listening to the soldier's report and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, you did a good job, I will reward you."
The soldier was stunned, and he knelt down flattered: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from outside the tent: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Ning is here again."
The soldier was stunned and looked at Yue Cen anxiously: "Your Majesty, this..."
Yue Cen said disapprovingly: "I am still not feeling well and cannot see guests."
The soldiers were completely confused and had no idea what their emperor was up to.
Does the Emperor hate His Royal Highness Prince Ning?
But he clearly saw the emperor smile just now. Although the smile disappeared quickly, he was sure that he was not mistaken.
But this was not something he could guess, so he'd better just obey orders.
Ye Lingchen was stopped outside the tent again, but he did not give up: "Go and tell the emperor again that I have something important to report."
Without thinking, the soldier replied directly: "Your Highness, please forgive me. The emperor has specifically ordered that no one should disturb us."
He glanced at Ye Lingchen quietly, then lowered his head: "Your Highness, please go back."
Ye Lingchen was already anxious because he felt guilty, and his patience was immediately exhausted after hearing these words.
He pushed the soldier aside and rushed in: "I will not go back! I want to see with my own eyes what happened to the emperor!"
If Yue Cen was injured, he would have to supervise him and get proper treatment.
If it was because of him, then he should apologize sincerely.
A real man should admit his mistakes and he doesn't feel ashamed.
The soldier had never experienced such a scene before. He was so horrified that he stood there in a daze.
Fortunately, he was very skilled and stopped Ye Lingchen when he was about to break in.
"Your Highness, please wait!" The soldier stood in front of Ye Lingchen with his hands open, and said in a deep voice, "Please don't embarrass me."
Ye Lingchen was really impulsive just now, and only regained his senses after being stopped.
He looked at the soldier with a stern face for a moment, but finally gave up.
Never mind, he would really hurt others by doing this.
The matter between him and Yue Cen should not involve innocent people.
"Tell the emperor for me." Ye Lingchen looked at the door and raised his voice, "Please have a good rest, Your Majesty. I will come back after you have rested."
In fact, he didn't need to speak so loudly, because Yue Cen was standing behind the tent door and could hear everything that happened outside the tent.
When Ye Lingchen almost broke in, the corners of his mouth almost stretched to his ears.
But now is not the time yet, he has to make Ye Lingchen suffer a little.
This weird guy obviously cares about him, but always keeps him at a distance.
Ye Lingchen returned to the tent in a depressed mood. On the way, he met many people who saluted him, but he just waved his hands and didn't even have the energy to say a word.
He sat down on the bed, was silent for a moment, and suddenly turned his head to look at the place where Yue Cen had slept last night.
For some reason, he reached out and touched it.
It was icy cold, unlike when Yue Cen slept here, it was warm like a stove.
At this moment, a chill actually surged in Ye Lingchen's heart.
Not only is it cold, but it also feels a bit empty.
What’s even worse is that his nose started to feel sore and his eyes got hot right after that.
Two lines of hot tears flowed down without his permission, and as he lowered his head subconsciously, they fell on the bed.
Soon, the area became wet and connected into one, becoming even cooler.
At the same time, his heart seemed to be squeezed by an invisible hand, making him unable to breathe.
This feeling made him shocked and terrified. What happened to him?
How could he be like this?
Just because Yue Cen ignored him? He cried like this?
