Because of what Physician Zhang said, Ye Jingchen sighed at Ye Jinghe's unfortunate fate and couldn't help but want to go to the side hall to see him.
Xiao Jinghe sleeps very well. He looks exactly the same as when he left, and even the satisfied smile he had before falling asleep is still on his lips.
He was sleeping soundly, his little face rosy.
These days, Ye Jingchen has been taking good care of him, and his little face has finally gained some weight, making him look much cuter than when we first met.
Ye Jingchen has loved children since he was a child, and if you really want to trace it back, it probably stems from the fact that he had a younger brother who was very cute when he was little.
He has a bad memory and doesn't remember much from his childhood, including what his younger brother looks like. But he always remembers one time, after putting his brother to sleep, he lay on the headboard watching his brother sleep. As he watched, he felt an urge to nibble on his brother's cheeks.
There was no other reason than that my younger brother thought it looked incredibly delicious.
Because his younger brother was just too cute, Xiao Ye Jingchen was a complete brother-obsessed child, and did many foolish things in his blind protection of his brother.
She took the blame for her younger brother, argued with a group of children on his behalf, and fought for him in the surrounding villages.
As long as his younger brother acts pitiful and clings to his wounds, he seems to lose his mind and become capable of doing anything outrageous.
However, although he protected his younger brother like a mother hen protecting her chicks, his efforts were not in vain. He would tell his brother what he had done for him at the time, and would always casually mention it afterward, letting his younger brother know from a young age how much he, as the older brother, had sacrificed for him.
The idea of giving without expecting anything in return, or making silent contributions, does not align with Ye Jingchen's philosophy of life.
He must receive something in return for his efforts.
If the other party cannot repay immediately, then he will create an opportunity for them to do so.
For example, Ye Jingchen has more than 20 years of experience in stimulating children.
Although my younger brother is a little genius, he wouldn't have become the outstanding and promising young man others talk about at such a young age if it weren't for his constant encouragement when he was a child!
And so, when he turned thirty, at an age when his peers were still relying on their parents and only knew how to do so, he was already relying on his younger brother.
His parents didn't need to worry about him, and even after he ran out of money, he could still occasionally ask his younger brother for more gold coins.
Raising a younger brother who was both obedient and generous with his money was his greatest pride during the first thirty years of his life when he accomplished nothing.
So, after he discovered that he had transmigrated into the body of a cannon fodder prince in a novel he had just read, he quickly thought of the cannon fodder prince's six younger brothers.
The cannon fodder prince himself is still a child, so his younger brothers must be even younger and needing to be fed.
Having transmigrated into a book, he not only has six adorable little creatures to raise, but also six clever and capable younger brothers who will help him expand his territory, stabilize the country, and bring peace to the land, allowing him to reap the benefits without lifting a finger. Just thinking about it makes him laugh in his dreams.
He looked lovingly at the sleeping Ye Jinghe. Right now, Ye Jinghe was still an exceptionally fragile sapling, needing the care and watering of the caregiver. The day he grew into a towering tree would be the day he could provide shade and shelter for the caregiver from the sun and rain.
...
Because he spent an hour groping Ye Jinghe's bedside during his sleep time, Ye Jingchen suffered from sleep deprivation and could barely open his eyes when he was woken up the next day.
Ye Jinghe slept very well, and early in the morning, he came to his bedroom full of energy to watch him get up with great interest.
At first, Ye Jinghe was genuinely frightened by Ye Jingchen's morning grumpiness. Moreover, he had just arrived at the East Palace and everything he experienced seemed like a dream, so he was cautious and dared not doubt.
However, after witnessing Ye Jingchen's morning grumpiness a few times and seeing him wake up naturally, the clever Ye Jinghe knew that his brother was different from him.
My brother wasn't actually sick.
Moreover, unlike him, who could control his madness, his brother couldn't control his temper.
After figuring this out, Ye Jinghe found his brother's unconscious temper, caused by not sleeping well, quite amusing.
Of course, as interesting as it was, he only dared to observe from afar and didn't dare to provoke his older brother at this time.
After washing up with a somber expression, Ye Jingchen thought about what happened last night and beckoned Ye Jinghe over.
After Ye Jinghe approached, he picked up the sachet hanging from Ye Jinghe's waist and took out the perfume from it.
The box for this perfume balm is completely different from the previous porcelain bottle, and the scent of the balm is also very different.
Ye Jinghe stared wide-eyed, not understanding why the balm in the sachet had been replaced after he woke up from his nap.
"What about the perfume?" he asked nervously.
Although he can control his madness, he can't always control it. If he gets stimulated again like he did in the Imperial Garden, he will lose control of himself. But the balm can calm him down quickly so that he won't do anything to hurt his brother.
So the perfume was very important to him.
"There's something bad in that perfume. If you smell it for too long, it will harm you, so you can't carry it with you," Ye Jingchen explained earnestly.
"What if I go crazy again?" Ye Jinghe asked, frowning.
“Then Jing and your brother can smell this perfume. It smells really good, doesn’t it?” Ye Jingchen said with a smile.
“It won’t work.” Ye Jinghe frowned even more. “Brother, I want the previous perfume.”
"No, you'll get sick if you smell that perfume for too long. I've already had it taken away," Ye Jingchen said.
“It’s okay for me.” Ye Jinghe reached out his hand to Ye Jingchen, his expression stubborn. “I want it.”
It's okay that he's sick, but he doesn't want to cause any harm to his brother.
"It's okay to be sick, it's okay to make you more prone to going crazy?" Ye Jingchen asked helplessly.
Ye Jinghe's eyes widened again. Would that perfume make him even crazier?
His small hand hung limply, his face filled with disbelief.
"Actually, your brother knows that most of the time, you can control yourself, right?" Ye Jingchen squatted down in front of Ye Jinghe, his gaze level with Ye Jinghe's, and asked gently.
Ye Jinghe was feeling down when his brother suddenly exposed his little secret, leaving him utterly shocked.
Ye Jingchen had only had some doubts, but seeing Ye Jinghe's expression, he knew he was right.
In fact, he had long suspected Ye Jinghe. Many times, Ye Jinghe's eyes reddened due to emotional changes, but he only reddened his eyes and did not go crazy.
Although he had his suspicions, he didn't really want to verify them. After all, everyone has a few secrets, right?
If Ye Jinghe uses his madness as a means of self-preservation, Ye Jingchen will only feel gratified, because knowing how to protect oneself is a good thing.
But Physician Zhang's words last night made Ye Jingchen realize that Ye Jinghe's poison was incurable. If he did not want to be tormented by this poison forever, he had to learn to control his emotions.
However, letting oneself go crazy is clearly not advisable.
