In his previous life, Xie Chang'an fought for many years, but the blood on his hands was less than that of Ye Jinghe, who had never been on the battlefield.
Ye Jinghe nearly wiped out the aristocratic families and the royal family, and his reputation for bloodthirstiness and cruelty spread throughout the land.
Compared to Ye Jinghe, this rebel army that drove out the northern barbarians became a righteous force.
Ye Jinghe is a madman, and his 200,000 guards are all madmen. If Ye Jinghe hadn't been so deeply poisoned that he sometimes couldn't even control himself, it's uncertain who would have won or lost in the previous life!
Given such a dangerous presence, how could Xie Chang'an possibly feel comfortable letting Ye Jingchen stay near him?
If it were up to him, he should lock Ye Jinghe in an iron cage while he is still unable to move, to prevent him from going crazy once he can move again.
However, he knew very well that Ye Jingchen would definitely not agree to him doing so.
When he was first reborn, he saw the deep brotherly bond between Ye Jingchen and Ye Jinghe, and he thought that if the little madman saw this scene, he would definitely go crazy.
Little did I know that my wish would come true, and the little madman really did come.
“You can stay here if you want, but you can’t see him alone,” Xie Chang’an said to Ye Jingchen.
Furthermore, he also arranged for his personal guards, as well as Ye Jingchen's personal guards, to be stationed near Ye Jingchen, so that even if the little madman went crazy, he could still protect Ye Jingchen's safety in time.
“I know he’s dangerous, I won’t meet with him alone,” Ye Jingchen said.
He sympathized with him, but he wouldn't let that make him forget what kind of person Ye Jinghe really was.
“We can’t see him alone either,” Xie Chang’an said, pointing to Ye Jinghe.
"What right do you have to prevent my brother from seeing me?" Ye Jinghe's gaze at Xie Chang'an was sharp as a knife.
"I didn't say we couldn't meet, I just couldn't meet alone. Who knows if Jingchen was meeting you or the person inside?" Xie Chang'an said.
"I should be able to tell the two of them apart," Ye Jingchen said with a smile.
"What if he pretends to be your precious younger brother to deceive you? Would you be able to see through it immediately?" Xie Chang'an asked somewhat irritably.
Although he was certain that the little madman wouldn't go mad yet, he was certain that he would go insane once he met Ye Jinghe and learned about his experiences from childhood to adulthood.
"Okay, I promise you, I won't see Jinghe alone." Ye Jingchen noticed the change in Xie Chang'an's emotions and comforted him by holding his hand.
"Brother—" Ye Jinghe looked at Ye Jingchen with a pitiful expression.
"Jinghe, you also need to be careful. The person inside gives us a very dangerous feeling. If you're going to visit him, it's best to bring several people with you," Ye Jingchen advised.
Is it dangerous?
Ye Jinghe felt a strange unease whenever he thought of that person.
When he saw the man covered in wounds, he didn't feel that he was dangerous; instead, he felt a little sad.
There are very few people in this world who can move his emotions. So far, only his brother and Chunming have done so. Why would he feel sad for a complete stranger?
Is it just because they look alike?
Ye Jingchen noticed that Ye Jinghe had been somewhat dazed ever since he saw the Ye Jinghe in the video. After thinking for a moment, he called Fang Xi and Fang Rui over.
"Go and find Fangrong and get all the calming and soothing spices she has. Also, ask her to prepare more calming and soothing spices recently."
"Incense is burned in this room for all twelve hours of the day, and a sachet to calm the mind is placed by the guest's pillow. All the clothes prepared for him are also incense-burning," Ye Jingchen instructed Fang Xi.
Then he instructed Fangrui, "Go to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion and invite Mr. Li over. Tell him that there is a patient in the Prince of Qian's mansion whose condition is very similar to Jinghe's back then, but much more serious. Ask him to come and take a look."
"Thank you so much, brother. You're the one who cares about me the most," Ye Jinghe said gratefully.
His expression changed after he finished speaking.
All of his brother's arrangements were for the person in the room, but why did he feel that his brother was doing it for his own good?
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingchen's expression changed.
The arrival of another Ye Jinghe did have some impact on this Ye Jinghe.
"Let someone watch over him for now. We'll see him together when he wakes up," Ye Jingchen said to Ye Jinghe.
He didn't know the current situation of Ye Jinghe inside, so for safety's sake, it would be best if everyone went to see him together.
"Okay," Ye Jinghe replied hesitantly.
Fangrui returned first to report that Mr. Li was not in the manor at the moment, but she had already explained the situation to the steward and would invite him over after he returned.
When Fangxi returned, she brought back a lot of spices, among which the one with the best calming effect was the calming incense with agarwood as its base.
Ye Jingchen had her light some calming incense in the room and then slipped a sachet made of dried gardenia flowers under her pillow.
No one in the guest rooms woke up that day.
Physician Zhang brewed a medicine to replenish qi and blood, and when the time came, he had someone feed the medicine to him. He also arranged for someone to watch over him in his room that night.
The next morning, Ye Jinghe went to the guest room to check on him. The other person was breathing steadily, but still hadn't woken up.
Ye Jingchen got up early that day, which was unusual for him, and made it to the Prince's Palace for breakfast.
Several people were having breakfast when Ye Jinghe's maid came to report that he had woken up.
Ye Jinghe couldn't sit still any longer and immediately got up to go see the person.
As soon as Ye Jinghe moved, Chunming also stood up.
"Chunming, you eat first, let's go take a look." Ye Jingchen casually pressed the child back into the chair, and he and Xie Chang'an followed Ye Jinghe to the guest room.
Upon entering the room, the person lying on the bed was indeed awake.
Seeing Ye Jinghe, who looked exactly like him, he seemed surprised and stared at him directly.
"Who are you?" Ye Jinghe, who was standing, asked the person lying down with a serious expression.
When the other person opened their eyes, even their gaze was familiar to Ye Jinghe.
It was a kind of calm madness. Sometimes when Ye Jinghe looked in the mirror, he would see that kind of look in his eyes.
"And who are you?" the man asked instead of answering, his voice still weak.
“My name is Ye Jinghe, the fifth prince of Dayuan, also known as Prince Qian. You are currently in my palace. It was my men who saved you,” Ye Jinghe said.
Upon hearing the name Ye Jinghe, the person lying on the bed changed their expression, instantly becoming extremely dangerous.
“If you are Ye Jinghe, then who am I?” he asked.
Then, he looked at Xie Chang'an and asked coldly, "Xie Chang'an, what exactly are you up to, making it impossible for me to even die in peace?!"
