Chapter 216: Three Times Never
Li Bu Shang was silent for a moment, then immediately said, "I live nearby. We know about every battle."
"oh……"
Nan Yan nodded gently and put some more food into his bowl. "Alright, don't worry about these things, kid. Just eat your food. With the emperor here, they can't act wildly."
Li Bushang said: "I'm not a child anymore!"
Nan Yan smiled and asked, "How old are you?"
"I'm fifteen, and I'll be sixteen this year!"
"Fifteen years old?" Nan Yan was a little surprised. When she saw him outside the restaurant before, he was so thin and dark, and now he looked thin and short. She thought he was only eleven or twelve years old, but she didn't expect that he was almost sixteen years old.
"Then why are you... so short?"
“…”
Li Bushang's face wrinkled as if he had been stabbed. He immediately lowered his head, took a big sip of porridge, and then ate vigorously.
Nan Yan immediately understood and said with a smile: "Yes, eat more, eating more will help you grow taller."

It's late at night and everyone is asleep.
Even though the army has strict discipline, it is rare for a camp of tens of thousands of people to be so quiet.
Because the military camp was far away from the town, except for a few campfires in the middle of the camp, the rest of the place was pitch black.
Ye Zheng, holding a torch, led a group of people slowly to the outside of Nan Yan's tent. However, he accidentally saw a dark figure sitting behind the tent and immediately asked, "Who?!"
The soldier behind him cautiously drew the knife from his waist.
Upon hearing his voice, the figure turned around and whispered, "Ye Zheng?"
When the firelight shone, it turned out to be Nan Yan.
She sat alone at the back of the tent, guarding a small stove with a medicine jar on top.
"Ye Zheng, what are you doing here?"
When Ye Zheng saw her like this, he immediately understood.
"You, are you making medicine again?"
Weren't the two bowls of soup she made earlier already thrown away? She still wasn't giving up?
But when he got closer, he found that there was no fire in the stove and the medicine jar was cold. He was immediately surprised and said, "What are you doing?"
Nan Yan looked dejected and said softly, "Nothing."
In fact, she wanted to come here to make medicine.
After having dinner with Li Bushang, it was already midnight. She left him alone and came here with the medicine jar, wanting to boil more medicine, but she didn't do it.
Zhu Feng had already thrown away two bowls of medicine she had prepared.
People often say "three times the limit", if Zhu Feng breaks her bowl again this time, she really won't be able to go on.
But she was afraid. If Zhu Feng smashed the bowl for the third time, she would still not be able to help but endure it for the fourth, fifth, or even sixth time.
At that time, even she would be angry with herself.
So, she has been sitting stupidly facing this cold little stove until now.
Looking at her bewildered and somewhat innocent expression, Ye Zheng seemed to understand something. He sighed and said, "Okay, stop—and hurry back to your tent."
“…”
Nan Yan was silent for a while, then stood up, holding her knees.
When she turned around, she saw that Ye Zheng was followed by a dozen tall soldiers. They were unclear in the night and looked like a wall.
Moreover, these people were all wearing armor. Judging from their clothes, they seemed to be the soldiers of Taining Guard that we saw when we entered the Yongzhou camp before.
She opened her eyes wide: "What are you going to do?"
