Han Shuxing's arrival made both of them uncomfortable. But Han Shuxing himself didn't think it was a big deal. He was not from the Wei Dynasty, so he couldn't see the subtle tricks of the Wei people.
Han Shuxing honestly described the surrounding terrain to Yan Shang, and the situation of the nearby waterways. Finally, he mentioned that he had searched a one-mile radius and had not found any traces of the enemy, so he asked the two to rest assured. After he said this, he felt that the atmosphere was a little strange.
He looked over and saw Yan Shang sitting sideways with his knees bent, his collar gathered up, in the small moonlight. He lowered his head and said nothing. Mu Wanyao knelt beside Yan Shang, her fingers on her own knees, also lowered her head and said nothing.
Seeing that the two of them had nothing to say, Han Shuxing could only bite the bullet and continue. He said dryly, "Your Highness, I... I just went to check out this wooden house. There is a bed partitioned off from the inner room on the right. How about Your Highness sleeping there tonight, and I and your servant will stay outside to watch?"
He was accustomed to saying "I" after being taught by Yan Shang, but when facing his former master, the high and mighty Princess Danyang, he still couldn't help but become humble and want to please her.
He hated the servility in his nature, but he was helpless.
Mu Wanyao raised her head and glanced at him. Han Shuxing then saw that the princess's face was a little swollen and blood red, but Mu Wanyao was still beautiful. Her clear and cold eyes looked down at him, causing Han Shuxing to tense his waist unconsciously.
Mu Wan shook: "What about Yan Shang?"
Han Shuxing didn't understand what she meant, so he said according to his own understanding: "Isn't Erlang's wound still unbandaged? I, your servant, will help him treat the wound first. I just got a pot of clean water."
Mu Wanyao was speechless.
She supported herself on her knees and was about to stand up, to give the two grown men space as Han Shuxing had intended. But when her clothes rustled, Yan Shang's fingers on his knees trembled, and he held her hand.
Mu Wanyao, who had already stood up, lowered her eyes and saw that he was holding her hand tightly, but his black hair fell on his cheeks, and his ears, which were half covered by his long hair, were already red with embarrassment.
Yan Shang whispered, "Han Shuxing, go to the separate room and sleep. You are the only warrior among the three of us, and you need more physical strength than His Highness and I. His Highness and I will handle it for one night."
Han Shuxing was stunned. He thought, but that's His Highness. The best bed should be given to His Highness.
Yan Shang said again: "Besides, Your Highness bandaged my wound... He actually handled it quite well."
Mu Wanyao didn't say anything. She hadn't even started bandaging his wound yet, but if he wanted to say that, she didn't mind. As expected, Yan Shang knew Han Shuxing very well, and he easily persuaded Han Shuxing to sleep on the bed and leave Mu Wanyao here.
After Han Shuxing left, Mu Wanyao knelt down again and used the clean water that Han Shuxing had brought to help Yan Shang bandage his wounds.
Fortunately, they were just external injuries, and there were medicines left by hunters. Although the wounds on Yan Shang's back looked more shocking, external injuries would eventually heal. Mu Wanyao was more worried about Yan Shang's eyes. She was worried that if he couldn't apply medicine on time, his eyes would be delayed. If he was left with a lifetime of regrets due to such a delay, would she have hurt him again?
Yan Shang gently pulled her hand, he was a little uncomfortable: "What are you thinking about, Your Highness?"
Mu Wan came back to her senses. She looked down at his hand that was holding her wrist for a long time and said, "I was wondering, what are you doing? Why do you want me to stay with you? Since this afternoon... you have been holding on to me."
Yan Shang was silent for a while. His face was a little pale, and now he looked even more haggard and tired.
He looked sad and angry with his head down, which was a rare combination of conflicting emotions. Mu Wanyao observed him and saw him raise his head. His voice was a little hoarse: "Of course I want Your Highness to stay by my side and not leave me... I thought Pei Qing would... protect you. But you were caught by the bandits... I can't trust anyone else anymore.
“I only believe in myself.”
He thought of the slapping sound he heard. At that moment, he felt as if he was in an abyss with no bottom. His bones and blood were getting colder and colder, and his strength was gone. Why was the girl he cherished so much and wanted to protect so much being beaten in front of him?
He hates himself!
Mu Wan shook her head and stared at him, then said, "So, you want me to stay in your sight tonight?"
Yan Shang: "Yes...don't blame me."
Mu Wan shook her head for a long time without saying anything. She leaned on Yan Shang's shoulder, her mind was blank, and she felt quite tired. She didn't know if it was because of what happened today, or the tiredness that had been weighing on her heart for the past three years. It was difficult to explain people's emotions at once. When she was depressed, she felt that she could take a break only when she leaned against Yan Shang.
Yan Shang couldn't hear her talk, so he couldn't judge her emotions. Yan Shang hesitated and said, "Why did you leave the city...did you and Pei Qing get separated? What were you doing outside the city? Why didn't you listen to me and bring a few more guards?"
Mu Wanyao turned her head to look at him. Of course, he couldn't see her. She showed a sarcastic expression on her face: "What do you think it means for a man to lead a woman out of the city without a few more guards?"
Yan Shang was stunned.
He said, “…I don’t know.”
Mu Wan shook her head nonchalantly: "You want to sleep with me."
Yan Shang: “…”
He suddenly tightened his grip on her hand, and her shoulder stiffened. Yan Shang held his breath, and his whole body was stiff. He obviously didn't expect that his conspiracy would end up like this. His expression was blank, and he didn't know how to react for a moment.
It felt like confusion, sadness, and also a bit...unhappy.
Mu Wanyao was almost amused by him.
She propped her forehead with her hand and said, "Pei Qing has been pursuing me for three years, but unfortunately I have never treated him well. Isn't there a ready-made opportunity recently? Some people don't want it, while others treasure it. I thought he was the right person. He has been following me, calling me Your Highness all the time. You hurt my heart so much, and he saw how I couldn't let you go, but he still cared about me... I am a little tired.
"Yan Shang, I'm a little tired. I was thinking, is it better to find someone who loves me than someone I love? I could see Pei Qing's advances, so I wanted to accept him.
"If he wants to kiss me, then kiss me. If he wants to have sex with me, then let him do it. But I can't have children. I don't know if he can accept it... It doesn't matter if he can't accept it. I can give him a few concubines when the time comes. Between men and women, between husband and wife, such a muddleheaded thing will just pass their lives."
She was silent for a long time.
Yan Shang held her hand tightly. After a long moment, he whispered, "I'm sorry."
Mu Wan shook her head and said calmly, "Don't say 'I'm sorry' all the time. That's how you are. You always like to give without thinking. You always put yourself in a low position towards me, which is why I've gotten used to this kind of man. But now I realize... not everyone is like you.
"If you were as good at speaking pretty words as Pei Qing, I would have been fooled by you a long time ago. There are many people like Mu Wanyao in this world, but I have only seen you, like Yan Shang."
She thought of Pei Qing, and the things that happened during the day. She thought of how Pei Qing had protected the bandits at first, and then how they had fled in panic... At that time, she had just watched without much emotion, but she just thought it was ridiculous.
The carefully selected person is just like this. Or maybe, the person Pei Qing loves is not Mu Wanyao, but "Princess Danyang".
Mu Wan shook her head and whispered, "I don't want to make do anymore."
Just like Yang Si said. She is a princess, why should she make do with it?
Yan Shang turned his head and said seriously, "Nonsense. Your Highness, don't underestimate yourself. I have only seen one 'Mu Wan Yao'. He stood firm in the face of bandits and did not show any weakness. After being captured, he dared to fight against bandits who were a thousand times stronger than him... He never bowed to fate. I only know this 'Mu Wan Yao'."
Mu Wan couldn't help but curl her lips and moved closer to his arm. Being praised always makes people happy. Especially when this person is Yan Shang, who makes her love and hate him at the same time and has a noble character like a saint. She hates the style of saints, but she also longs for the security that saints can bring her.
It's so contradictory.
Mu Wan raised her head and looked at his smooth chin for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject: "Are you and your fiancée going to cancel the engagement or not?"
Yan Shang was stunned. He didn't expect her to suddenly talk about this.
After a long while, he whispered, "Do you care so much about this?"
Mu Wanyao was about to explain that she was just picking a random topic. She didn’t want to discuss that with him because she didn’t want to slap him again… Then she heard him say tiredly, “I will cancel the engagement. But I need some time so as not to tarnish the girl’s reputation. After all, I’m too famous. I don’t want the girl’s name to be tied to mine and to remain anonymous for me.”
Yan Shangqing put his arm around her shoulders, lowered his head, and smiled at her, but his smile was very awkward: "If you really care so much, I won't get married. I'll wait for you, wait for you to get married for two or three years... wait until you have completely let it go, then I'll consider marriage. Anyway, if you want to get married, there will be no time for it to happen."
Mu Wan was stunned.
She murmured, "...You are willing to delay for a few more years for me? What about your family? Don't you want a reputation?"
Yan Shang: "What else can I do? If you can't stand this, I can't just ignore you."
Mu Wanyao held his arm tightly, her heart moistened. In an instant, she felt Yan Shang's kindness to her again. He didn't make any promises with her, but he did this to take care of her feelings. If she was sensible, she should pity him... Mu Wanyao raised her head and almost blurted out that she wanted to tell him about herself and Pei Qing, and wanted to tell him that she never liked Pei Qing.
She wanted to tell him what happened today... She didn't need him to wait for her, and she would not marry Pei Qing.
But when she looked up, Mu Wanyao saw Yan Shang with his face down and he looked extremely haggard, she was startled. He was just trying to chat with her to calm her down. But after so many things happened today, Yan Shang was already very tired...
It’s not too late to talk about these things later.
Mu Wanyao leaned on Yan Shang's arm and slowly closed her eyes.
There were still pursuers, and it was still unsafe. However, it seemed that the dark hurricane in her heart was no longer empty, the cold stars were no longer trembling, and the fields were no longer desolate. The hurricane stopped, the candle that was about to go out was lit up, and her safe haven was back.
He still hasn't fully come back though.
But he probably never left.
Let her have a good night.
-----
The next day, the chirping of birds became sparse after the dragon went out. When Mu Wan woke up, she found herself curled up on the ground covered with straw. When she got up, rubbing her sore arms, the men's outer robe with a little blood on it fell off her shoulders.
Mu Wan was stunned for a while, then jumped up in a hurry. Without saying a word, she walked around the wooden house holding the men's coat in her hand. She did not see Yan Shang, nor did she find Han Shuxing.
Mu Wanyao ran out of the house, fear filled her heart, and she was so frightened that the blood in her body froze. She was panicking and wondered if they had all left, if she had been abandoned again. But how could Yan Shang abandon her? He shouldn't be that kind of person, and she shouldn't have misjudged Yan Shang's character.
If even he was not the person she thought he was, she would be too sad.
Mu Wanyao searched around the wooden house, but she couldn't even utter a word. She didn't know how long she had been wandering around, but she was too stubborn to go back to the wooden house where no one was. She heard the sound of gurgling water, so she followed the gurgling stream to find it.
Muwan was stunned.
She saw the young man's shoes and socks left on the table beside the rushing stream, and the young man with his sleeves rolled up and barefoot, standing bent in the cold stream. It was Yan Shang, whom she had been unable to find and thought had left with Han Shuxing.
The white gauze covering his eyes was slightly wetted by the water. He stood in the water, bent over. Because of his inconvenience in moving, he rolled up his sleeves, but the water also wet the corners of his clothes. He was groping in the water when he heard the angry scream of the girl on the shore: "Yan Shang!"
Yan Shang turned his head and smiled: "Your Highness, have you woken up?"
Mu Wanyao walked towards him angrily. He heard the footsteps and hurriedly stopped him, "Your Highness, don't come over. Don't get your clothes wet. The water in the mountains is a little cold. It's better for a girl not to touch such cold water."
Mu Wan was so angry that he stopped her on the shore. She held his outer robe in her arms and glared at him, "The water is a little cold, why are you standing in the water?"
Yan Shang smiled helplessly: "Han Shuxing went to help me check the news. I want to try and see if I can catch a fish. I can't let Your Highness starve. Of course, if I can't catch any, forget it... There are dry food in the wooden house."
Mu Wan frowned and said, "Why are you busying yourself when you have dry food? Is it easy for a blind man to find his way here?"
She lowered her head and saw the red scar on the back of his hand after he stood up. Mu Wan's heart skipped a beat and she felt as if she was being stabbed by a needle. She was already an extremely stubborn person, but seeing him like this, she became more tearful.
Mu Wan shook her head with tears in her eyes. "You... do you think I can't eat those dry food? Do you think I'm used to a life of luxury and that I'm hard to feed? Yan Shang, don't look down on me!"
When she yelled at him, her voice was filled with tears. Although she tried to hide it, it could not escape Yan Shang, who only had one ear left and was working hard to improve his hearing. Yan Shang hesitated and panicked: "Are you crying? What did I do wrong again?"
He hesitated and was about to walk towards the shore, but as soon as he stood up, he frowned in pain, and felt something hit his legs that were not in the stream with his trouser legs rolled up... Mu Wanyao saw it clearly, stretched out his hand and screamed: "Fish! Fish! Fish! There are so many fish around your legs..."
-----
Two quarters of an hour later, a fire was lit in the wooden house. Sitting by the campfire, Yan Shang, wearing a robe, handed the grilled fish to Mu Wanyao.
The hot fish was steaming. Even though one of them was blind and the other knew nothing about cooking, the fish did not look good enough. When Yan Shang handed over the grilled fish, Mu Wanyao, who had been hungry for too long, could not help but feel happy no matter how reserved she was.
She whimpered as she just lowered her head to take a bite.
Yan Shang lowered his head and looked at her with concern: "What's wrong? Is it too hot?"
Mu Wanyao covered her cheeks and didn't tell him that it was because her face was swollen that it hurt to eat. She was afraid that he would blame himself if she told him, so she sat with him in the sunny corner to grill fish. She looked up at Yan Shang and was glad that he couldn't see.
You don’t have to see half of her face which is now badly swollen, and you won’t see her at her ugliest.
Mu Wanyao smiled and said, "It's a little hot, but it's delicious. You can try it too."
She eagerly passed the fish skewered with a stick to his mouth, and happily wanted to share it with him. Yan Shang lowered his head and smiled, then opened his mouth and took a bite. Mu Wanyao stared at his reaction, and saw that he frowned slightly, then relaxed his eyebrows and said "delicious". Mu Wanyao became even happier, turned around and found another stick, wanting to share half of the fish that the two of them had grilled with great difficulty with him.
But when she picked up the branch and turned around to ask Yan Shang to help her get it, she saw Yan Shang raised his sleeves evasively and spit something to the side.
Mu Wan was startled for a moment and called him, "Yan Shang."
Yan Shang raised his head.
Mu Wan shook his face gloomily: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Yan Shang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled: "No."
Mu Wanyao suddenly got angry and shoved the fish on the stick into his hand. She didn't want to pay attention to him anymore and stood up to sit on the other side. Yan Shang reacted quickly this time and reached out to grab her hand and looked up. He was a little confused: "Did I make you unhappy again?"
Mu Wanyao said coldly: "Now we are dependent on each other, and you never tell me anything bad, and always endure it by yourself. What do you want me to think? I know you are considerate of me and take care of me, but if you fall ill, won't I be sad? You always protect me like this, how long are you going to protect me, and never let me grow up?
"You're the reason why I have such a bad temper! It's all your fault that I can't get married! You made me like this, and then you just turned around and left. What should I do alone?"
Yan Shang was confused for a long time, not knowing how she could make the matter so serious. But he was very smart, and he quickly guessed why she was so angry after hearing her endless complaints. Yan Shang couldn't help but laugh, and felt a little warm in his heart.
He pulled her back and sat her down again, and said in a low and embarrassed voice: "What are you talking about? I didn't do anything, and I don't feel uncomfortable."
Seeing that he still refused to admit it, Mu Wanyao widened her eyes and said, "I saw you vomit! You were so uncomfortable that you vomited, and you still said you didn't feel uncomfortable!"
She felt so distressed that she wanted to stamp her feet: "In fact, I have already noticed that you have not been in good health since we met again this time... You are so thin, and your waist is so thin..."
Yan Shang blushed and whispered, "Why are you talking about my waist again?"
Mu Wanyao was wondering when she had mentioned his waist, and then she heard him explain in a gentle voice: "I'm not feeling uncomfortable. I didn't vomit just now... I just got a fish bone stuck in my throat. You can't stop me from vomiting the fish bone, right?"
Mu Wan was stunned.
Then his face turned red.
She felt extremely ashamed and self-indulgent, and was speechless for a long time. Yan Shang never teased her like this, but just sighed sadly: "If I could see... I could help Your Highness pick out the fish bones. Now, I can only trouble Your Highness to take care of yourself."
Mu Wan shook his head and said, "Stop talking nonsense! How could I be stuck by a fish bone? I have never been stuck by a fish bone before...ah."
Yan Shang understood and said, "A fish bone is stuck in your throat? Can I take a look?"
Mu Wanyao covered her mouth vaguely: "No, no! You can't see, you are not allowed to touch me."
-----
Yan Shang regretted grilling fish for the two of them, because Mu Wanyao was really unable to take care of herself, so it was difficult to eat breakfast. Before the two of them finished eating the fish, Han Shuxing came back. Han Shuxing never understood the embarrassment of the two and directly talked about the current situation in Rang County.
"After the earthquake, many houses in the city collapsed and the people were buried underneath. The place where the bandits used to live is estimated to have collapsed halfway. Although the officers and soldiers and the bandits are trapped in the mountains now, it is clear that they are not only concerned about each other. This morning, Pei Langjun led his troops to the mountains to rescue everyone, and he has been looking for the princess..."
Han Shuxing looked towards Mu Wanyao.
Mu Wanyao sat next to Yan Shang, looking very cold.
Han Shuxing continued, "I heard that the princess was captured by bandits, and the prince was also captured by bandits for saving His Highness. The governor of Nanyang and the military governor were very anxious and claimed that they must rescue His Highness from the bandits. They captured some of the bandits, but the captured bandits were also confused and could not figure out whether His Highness was in their hands. Because they were eighty bandits, not all of them were the same.
"In short, while the government was settling the people, they began to search all over the mountains and plains for His Highness and the Lord of the Mansion. Pei Langjun was the most active. He wanted to ask Chang'an for help, but the two big men in Nanyang asked for two more days. They said that they wanted to see the person alive or the body dead."
Mu Wan shook as if thinking about something.
Yan Shang also lowered his head in thought.
Han Shuxing looked left and right, wondering what they were thinking. Han Shuxing suggested: "Erlang, Rang County is in chaos now, it's a good time for you to go back and clean up. Take advantage of this opportunity to remove the thieves who were previously planted in our mansion. It will also make the people trust you more!"
Han Shuxing said optimistically, "Your Highness is the same. I see Pei Langjun is about to cry, and Guard Fang is also very anxious. They are all waiting for Your Highness to return. After Your Highness returns, you can catch those who betrayed you and give them a good beating."
Mu Wanyao said, "I won't go back."
Yan Shang spoke at the same time as her: "Your Highness should not go back."
Han Shuxing was at a loss. Seeing Yan Shang and Mu Wanyao looking at each other, Yan Shang explained: "Your Highness... do you also feel it's unsafe to go back?"
Mu Wan shook his head indifferently, "Of course it's not safe. I'm not a fool. The top leader of Nanyang has set me up like this. If I go back now and can't catch any evidence against them, wouldn't it be a waste for me to be captured by the bandits? Then what's the point of my trip? Is it to help Yan Erlang suppress the bandits? Suppressing bandits is Yan Erlang's business, not mine. Whether there are many bandits in Nanyang or not is none of my business.
"I am now gone, so that the people of Nanyang Jiang Clan can be anxious. If they are cruel enough, they will send people to hunt me down and kill me here... After all, the excuse of being a bandit is too easy to use. If they don't jump out, I can't find an excuse to suppress the third brother. If they take the initiative to jump out... I can just make a fuss and say that the third brother wants to kill me, and Chang'an will never have peace."
She lowered her eyes and began to think about how to take advantage of this matter.
Yan Shang did not refute. Although he and she did not think in the same direction, and he did not care about the situation of the King of Qin in Chang'an, he did think the same as Mu Wanyao. He also felt that Nanyang was not safe at this time, and Nanyang Jiang would take advantage of this matter and kill Mu Wanyao to silence her.
And Pei Qing... Yan Shang didn't trust Pei Qing either, and didn't want to leave Mu Wanyao's safety to that person. He wanted to persuade Mu Wanyao to cancel the marriage, but he was afraid that she hadn't figured it out yet, and she would quarrel with him if he said anything... So after thinking about it, Yan Shang said, "Your Highness should leave Nanyang first. Then keep those people hanging, and let Guard Fang check the clues to see who is against Your Highness.
"The Jiang family has a deep influence in Nanyang. It is impossible to overthrow the Jiang family, but we can use this incident to replace the person in charge of the Jiang family with someone who is beneficial to us."
Mu Wan shook his head, and the two of them lowered their heads to discuss how to arrange things.
Han Shuxing was confused and kept quiet. After the two men discussed for about half an hour and decided on a method, Han Shuxing was excited because he finally had something to do. Yan Shang squatted on the ground, drew a map on the ground with a branch, told Han Shuxing the terrain, and asked him to escort Mu Wanyao all the way to quietly leave Nanyang.
He said there will be pursuers behind us, so we must be careful.
Mu Wanyao squatted on the ground and listened. When she heard Han Shuxing send her off, she did not object. Since she was trained by Yan Shang, even if she was born in Wuman, she would trust Han Shuxing for Yan Shang's sake. But after Yan Shang finished speaking, he hesitated for a long time. He clearly had something else to say, but he stopped talking several times.
Mu Wan shook her head and looked at him: "What's wrong?"
Yan Shang pursed his lips and whispered, "In addition to Han Shuxing escorting His Highness to leave Nanyang, I will also go with His Highness."
Mu Wan was stunned.
Then frowned: "No."
The situation in Nanyang needed him to go back and take charge, and those who were chasing her needed him to deal with them from behind. Mu Wanyao only believed in Yan Shang, and if the person behind was not Yan Shang, she was still afraid that the situation would not be under her control.
Yan Shang whispered: "I... I am worried about you going alone. I am familiar with all the terrain of Nanyang and all the transfers of officials. Even if I am not in Rang County, Yunshu is here, and my followers are here, and they will keep in touch with me... I want to send His Highness out of Nanyang safely. Nanyang is so unsafe, and Han Shuxing is just a warrior. I am afraid that he can't deal with the traps dug by the government.
"As for the affairs of Rang County... it doesn't necessarily depend on me. Isn't Pei Langjun in Rang County? His official position is higher than mine. If Your Highness thinks he is trustworthy... why don't you let him handle the affairs of the rear? Why must I stay? I don't want to stay."
Mu Wanyao said earnestly, "But he is not the parent official of Nanyang, how can he fight with the two big men in Nanyang? He is not like you... Yan Shang, don't be so willful, please consider the overall situation, okay?"
Yan Shang lowered his head.
After a while, he said, "I have always considered the overall situation and never acted willfully... But the result was not good for me. I watched and heard you being... treated like that. I can't rest assured. This time, I want to be willful for once."
Mu Wan shook her head in shock: "It was just a slap in the face... Please don't make it sound like I was raped, okay?"
He had a tense face and looked a little uncomfortable. Han Shuxing stood beside him and coughed.
Mu Wan shook: "..."
Mu Wan softened his voice and said, "But you are a blind man, what's the point of following me?"
Yan Shang asked back: "Who caught the fish for you, and who grilled the fish for you?"
Mu Wan turned away and said, "I don't know!"
Her face was still expressionless, but her fingers clenched his sleeves tightly, and she couldn't help but feel a little happy in her heart. But she held it in and didn't show it. She just covered her swollen half of her face and felt that the pain seemed to be not so severe.
-----
The three of them talked about how they escaped from the capture of officials.
Yan Shang said, "Let's play brother and sister."
Mu Wan glanced at him and said, "What do you mean by brother and sister? Are you older than me? You should call me 'Sister Yaoyao'. It's better to pretend to be brother and sister."
Yan Shang was stunned, his face slightly red, and he said unnaturally: "...don't you always call me 'Second Brother Yan'?"
Mu Wan opened her eyes wide and said, "How could that be? Han Shuxing, have you ever heard me call him like that?"
Han Shuxing certainly hadn't heard it. Han Shuxing had more contact with Mu Wanyao after she reunited with them. And this time, Mu Wanyao kept calling him "Yan Er" and "Yan Shang", not "brother". Yan Erlang was too imaginative.
There are no words yet.
Mu Wanyao was very proud, and although he couldn't see, she still gave him a proud look. But Han Shuxing asked immediately: "But whether it's brother and sister, or sister and brother, can they stay in the same guest room at night?"
Mu Wanyao was slightly startled.
Yan Shang stuttered, "Why, why do we have to stay in the same room?"
Han Shuxing asked curiously, "Isn't Erlang going to escort His Highness to leave Nanyang? Shouldn't a close escort live in the same room? If they live next door, then His Highness would not know if he was kidnapped at night? Brothers and sisters living in the same room, I don't know if it's strange according to you people of Wei?"
Yan Shang and Mu Wanyao were both silent.
After a long while, Yan Shang said softly: "... husband and wife."
Mu Wan shook her head and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "... Yeah."
Han Shuxing didn't understand: "Do you mean pretending to be a couple?"
Mu Wanyao: ...This person is so redundant!
